PapaTerps Mental Rainbow F1 Fast Version - Sweet Seeds
Hi all, welcome to another Micro Grow, where I will be attemting to grow a photoperiod in a 1L Air Pot. This strain is a Fast Flower, which means I can grow her along with my other photoperiods and not have to worry about the 12/12 light schedule that would potentially hinder an Autoflower. I chose her for her RS11 genetics, her short flowering time (around 7 weeks) and her effects, which are "stimulating, psychoactive, happiness, relaxing" π
Link: https://sweetseeds.com/en/f1-fast-version-seeds/3290-mental-rainbow-f1-fast-version.html
Day 1 - Seed dropped into a cup of water, RO and pH'd to 6.3 - she will remain here until the seed pops and a taproot appears! π
Day 5 - seedling appeared from the soil with the shell still attached, so I removed it along with the membrane. I'll let her grow now for the next few days/weeks until she's ready to go into her main grow pot πͺ
Day 8 - she's growing really well and is developing her first set of leaves! I will let her grow for another couple of days and then I will move her into her main grow pot, a 1L Air Pot. π She has a little bit of damage to her cotyledon's, which suggests shes taking nutrients from them, so I've added a little bit of nutrients to her feed for now π
Day 10 - She has been moved into her main grow pot, a 1L Air Pot and then watered with 250ml of RO tap water with defined nutrients mixed in order, individually and then pH'd to 6.3 π She will remain in this pot for the rest of her lifecycle - BUT - if I decided to move her into a larger pot later down the line, the Air Pot will allow me to do that π for right now, however, I intend to grow her in this 1L pot, to see how a photoperiod performsπ

Day 23 - She has been watered with 500ml of RO tap water with nutrients, mixed in order and then pH'd to 6.3! Good growth this week, she is working her main stem and has four side stems growing as well - because I don't want her growing too big, I will probably only veg her for one more week, so I've decided not to top her or perform any training on her either, so this one is just going to be allowed to grow πͺπ»

Day 30
πΏ She has been watered twice this week, with 1l of RO tap water with defined nutrients mixed individually, in order and then pH'd to 6.3. I've started to introduce bloom nutrients this week and I've upped her watering volume from 0.5 to 1 litre. She will be switching light schedule next week, so we need to start introducing these nutrients now to limit the amount of stress the plant is under π€π»
βοΈ I've removed her lowest most nodes and leaves, to encourage her to grow up towards the light, I won't be performing too much grow methods on this one, as it is more of a test run on the genetics than a yield grow ππ»
βοΈ She is growing well, her main stem is nice and thick and she has two lower side stems, which are currently under the canopy, but I will be exposing them during the stretch phase! I want to keep her has tight as possible so she doesn't take too much space in the tent ππ»

πΏ Watered twice this week, with 1l of RO tap water with defined nutrients mixed individually, in order and then pH'd to 6.3. I've upped her bloom nutrients this week as she is now on a 12 hour light schedule.π€π»
βοΈ No work on her this week, as she has been switched over to a 12 hour light schedule, I don't tend to train or defolated the week before light switch, as I don't want to stress my girls too much before the stretch phase ππ»
πΈ She was switched over to a 12 hour light schedule this week, so she is now in bloom! I gradually reduced the light schedule by one hour each day until we got to 12 hours total. I've also altered the tents environment setup, to keep the tempurature and humidity below 25 degrees celsius and 60% humidity π After a couple of days, it was noticeable that she had entered the stretch phase, as she grew 10cm in a short space of time - its all going good so far πͺ

πΏ Watered twice this week, with 1L of RO tap water with defined nutrients mixed individually, in order and then pH'd to 6.5. I've upped her BioGrow, BioHeaven and Acti-Vera nutrients as she is in stretch and I want her to have all the nutrients she needs during this time!
βοΈ No work on her this week; she was switched over to a 12 hour light schedule and is currently in stretch.
πΈ She was switched over to a 12 hour light schedule last week, so she is in her second week of bloom - she is rocketing up, but doesn't have any significant side stems, so she'll be a single stem plant π

πΏ Watered three times this week, with 1L of RO tap water with defined nutrients mixed individually, in order and then pH'd to 6.5. I've upped her nutrients as she requires the extra nutrients at this stage of flower.
βοΈ She's a small plant, so I've only removed a couple of fan leaves to improve light penetration, but other than that, she hasn't required any work. I've also moved her into the 3x3 tent because it was a better fit for her ππ»
πΈ Shes into her fifth week of bloom - she has finished her stretch and has now switched her focus over to developing and bulking her flower π

Day 81
πΏ Watered every two days, with 1L of RO tap water with defined nutrients mixed individually, in order and then pH'd to 6.5. I've increased her grow nutrients to address some of the deficiencies seen.
βοΈ I've given her a good defoliation this week, removing most of the fan-leaves from her top canopy to allow more light to reach the lower nodes, I've also removed a few of her larger sugar leaves around her flower, again to allow more light to reach her flower.
πΈ Shes into her seventh week of bloom and has started vigorously bulking her flower! Her flower is medium in size, but started quite airy but has since filled out, so I'm expecting dense and possibly heavy nuggets π€π» Her smell has also started to show itself, its a little peppery with notes of fruit and mint.
