buffalosoldier11 I used an aerogarden to pop the seeds. The clone I got from a friend should be considerably higher tier, and is one of his more durable strains. My hope to veg it out as bulky as possible, and flip in about 4 weeks. To make it more screwy for my first run, the GMO x OG is an auto, not a photo. I don't really care about yields of the two seeds as much as proof of function.

buffalosoldier11 Rotten Peach and GMO x OG are rocking and rolling. My Donatello is looking better after a brief scare that turned out to be under watering.

buffalosoldier11 Rotten Peach is still doing good. GMO x OG does not seem very happy. Donatello has mostly bounced back, but needs a pruning. MIDWEEK UPDATE - Yeah, it was root bound, looking WAY better to finish the week. Applied Dr. Earth Home Grown fertilizer mixed with locally sourced worm castings to the Promix CC. Considering adding BioThrive as an organic supplement to go with some bottom feeding I'll also be incorporating. I also had forgotten to turn the light programmer on....so they got 24 hours through most of week 2.

buffalosoldier11 The improvements are only continuing. Working on a bottom watering with BioThrive and BioRoot to really boost things up, but the bottom of the medium is still too dry to pull from the wicks yet. Defoliating Donatello as quickly as I can, and I plan to start with GMO very soon.

buffalosoldier11 The GMO x OG is beginning to flower. Rotten peach is looking lush, and Donatello is continuing to bush out. I'll stake these soon and try to get some spacing between the branches, especially on Donatello. The BioThrive and BioRoot did indeed appear to do the trick. I now have mild tip burn, which I'll take over them seeming hungry.

buffalosoldier11 Defoliating as fast as I can but still not fast enough. Let's allow the photos to go into flower and see how we do from here! GMO is starting to smell interesting.

buffalosoldier11 Heavy defoliation for day 21 of the photos flowering. The auto of GMO x OG smells nasty in a "please smoke me" way.

buffalosoldier11 Heavy defoil seems to be well received. Added Uprising Bloom. One of my recent waterings had some BioRoot mixed in, and another had recharge. Trying to water every 2 days. Donatello is a blueberry cross from my friend, and it's dang accurate. Rotten Peach is smelling rank, like skunk and cat piss with a sweet background. GMO smells like a rotten cheeseburger. I cannot wait to smoke these.

buffalosoldier11 They're really all coming in now. GMO x OG is threatening the "just wait 2 more weeks" window. Rotten Peach is absolutely exquisite looking, with super lush leaves. Hats off to Floyd on this beauty. Donatello is rocking out, making sure not everything in the tent smells like some form of death.

buffalosoldier11 It may be time to chop the GMO x OG (left side) next week. Defoliating minor fan leaves at the center of it is like sticking my hand in a garlic based glue trap. Donatello on the right is from a professional grower, and it shows. Long, stacking colas, with a pungent blueberry stank. It's coming exactly as advertised. Rotten Peach in the middle has begun purpling in the leaves and is looking just remarkable. Has like a peachy - cat piss smell. It's the most intriguing of my plants, especially as I can't say the last time I've smoked a skunk cross. Gave them a feeding last Thursday, a bit earlier than intended, but I was worried the leaf fade was hunger. I've been battling some fungus gnats, but not enough to be concerned by.

buffalosoldier11 I ordered some carboload and big bloom. Donatello still looks hungry in spite of a recent feed, and I doubt Rotten Peach and GMO would argue to some extra feed. Thinking I'm about 3 or 4 weeks away.

buffalosoldier11 Just swelling up and stinking the second I open the tent. I'm aiming for a Christmas harvest, as amber trichs still haven't shown. Feeding Recharge weekly, Carboload and Big Bloom every other, with plain CalMag water alternating in. Using half the dosage of both Carboload and Big Bloom, just trying to close up the bud sites and squeeze the rest of life out of the leaves.

buffalosoldier11 Getting really close now. No amber trichs yet, but I plan to harvest in 12 days and we're looking good on that. GMO x OG has kind of plateaued, which I can forgive, given the 12/12 light schedule with it as an auto.

buffalosoldier11 Cut CalMag out today. Straight water from today (Monday) through to this Saturday, and then it's chop time. Plan to try 48 hours of darkness before beginning.
