So finally a dream come set off my next run . Thank you so much to the anonymous generous-hearted genetics inventors who sent me these mysterious seeds. Soaked them with a few drops of kelp extract concentrate i had made for my last grows. Meanwhile this is a bio tabs run, and let me just take the time right now to thank BIG K from @biotabs_f69 for all the help learning more about biotabs ! So it's a front loaded activity, followed the instructions on the box for the biotabs, placed two, added the myco to the substrate and the plug hole watered with orgatrex and my very own smart protein you guys. This is a different type of additive that works like carbos but is directly accessible to the plant. Let's see how it works out ! Germination rate for me was 10/10 , poked out overnight, now the veg begins. I'll be applying a variety of techiques while i set up a perpetual rotation. Advice welcome 🚀 watering 200 ml twice to three times a day , carefully as to not compact the soil - just something i learned from my last grow that really works out over time ! 🚀

Disaster struck the tester family ! #47 and #48 just upped and died suddenly, all of them without prior warning. Pretty shocking, maybe it was the smart proteins, hard to say ! Anyways #46 pulled through, so here it is ! What's interesting is I've sprouted 9 of these and i've got like 9 phenos, no two are the same. No two even grow the same. In fact these already have all sorts of different leafs, serraded, less serated , pointy, not pointy, growing with this structure or that structure. Check the pics see for yourself ! Some folks like growing from seed for exactly this reason anyway : a wider spectrum of possible phenos means you can get all sorts of interesting results. Truth is though i just can t wait to put these in my joint! Thanks for dropping by ! SMART PROTEIN : So i"ve been feeding 2ml/L smart protein every watering from when these were in their small cups. I finished the 1.35 oz bottle I had trying to get more. My theory is that the smart protein is most important the first two weeks of veg and the first two of flower. Plus i do think it works better in smaller spaces that means smaller pots, because it's more accessible. I'm learning all about this stuff so any advice welcome ! 🚀

The SWAMPMONSTER ran out of juice so no SMART PROTEINS for these this week, but holly smokes looks like that swamp thing potion does lasting work on the plants : they're just popping the f off ! faster than any auto i've ever grown, and i'm grow diaries native so you can see all my other grows ever lol anyway, as you can see these have started developing side shoots and it's week 3 . Never seen a plant like this in my life, well dont be surprised it's my first photo , so yeah, just glad a found a way around that longish veg for a photo ! these are 3 weeks in, maybe they've got a couple more weeks of veg in them tops , some will stay vegged for the rotation, any questions welcome ! in case you were wondering it's just plain water until i get more juice maybe some more beneficials but that's just about it that's planned ! 🚀

Well these are going very well, all pics are from day 35, did some light defoliation. Saw the start of some kind of deficiency last week added bactrex and orgatrex according the instructions on the box, used the boom boom spray, same thing, just following the instructions on the box. Got my smart protein back so these will end up getting some next week and hopefully through flower. Added some cool vids of the smart protein, injectable grade, 104% saturation, so you can see the precipitate forming these elongated diamond looking crystals. This is not your average fertiliser people, dont try this with anything you might have on hand, i never did something like this before plus my best friend he taught himself how to do this with youtube videos lmao anyway, try not to kill yourself doing what i did, my thoughts and prayers. Advice welcome, some of these have to go they all look just so goddam tasty though, what you want me to do? enjoy the pics my friends ! 🚀

Do you see that SWAMPMONSTER in the corner of the tent there ?? The Queen towers above the canopy and the rest of the plants lol. It's really interesting from using the Smart Proteins, i think how they work is that the plant is able to process them and compensate any kind of slight deficiency which means that each plant that gets the proteins is able to grow to it's maximum potential and at the same time grow to its **individual** potential... that's why each of these plants has so much "character", because if you look closely it's less a question of phenotype but more like "individual expression".... INTERESTING !!! Anyway that's about the visual... my main concern about these is how loud they f-ing smell !!! ITS PROBLEMATIC, so be conscious of that if you plant to grow these one day ! REALLY REALLY LOUD, honestly there should be an additional category on GD like "problematic" which is beyond the "strong smell" category. I have two large carbon filters on two 1330m3/h fans and it's a problem. Hope you understand how unusual that is for a plant in veg lol... I think the smart protein probably affects how strong the plants smell because all the plants seem more smelly than expected... TBH i'll fix the smell issue but hopefully it's a good sign and an indicator of the quality i can expect by harvest time? These also got two rounds of defoliation , and i flipped them to flower like 4 days ago. This was an exciting veg to me, but now is when it gets interesting, let's see how beautiful these flowers are !! Test genetics always have that little bit of mystery to them right? By the way, I'm often visiting this site, so drop me a message about whatever, especially if you have advice ! Thanks for following along with me, i appreciate it really ! ITS FLOWER TIME FOLKS LETS SEE! 🚀

First full on flower week for these, they seem really f-ing quick for some reason, maybe it's the smart protein ... At this rate i'm gonna have an august harvest fully 12 weeks from seed lol, i'm not holding my breath because i'm realistic, but that would be f-ing nice as shit lol anyway i'm just following these ladies' cycle and giving some flower nutrients as well as some flower specific micro , had some bioflo around so just used that - didnt really over think this one, i'm just enjoying the show, sneaked into their room while they were sleeping to snap some pics , pretty dramatic with the lighting , hope you enjoy these ! Just a word before I let you go : i do "touch up" these photos by clicking the magic wand on my phone's camera function, so if these appear "too much" or "too light" or whatever, just let me know i'll save time and effort , like i said, hope you enjoy these 🚀

So i decided to experiment with the smart protein in a foliar spray recently and unlike other nutrients (this is not a nutrient or an additive!!!) well saturation is not desirable, in other words for other foliar sprays you want a saturated solution more or less, but with the smart protein you want to lighter... i think the leafs are really good at absorbing it, but it's so rare they end up "stained" and end up 'burnt', if you look closely it looks similar to Mg deficiency... but it's not and it's interesting lol. Nothing else to report, not feeding anything this week, i'll try to update as regularly as i can from now on aswell. Hope you enjoy these testers as much as I do ! 🚀

Not bad not bad, by the looks of it she'll be a fatty but i just hope that she'll be ready at the same time as the others. What i want to know is how the bbc can predict when i want my harvest but can't predict when my fucking landlady will break in and faff about it my grow room, long story short 46 makes me 👺 anyways, boucing back from a scare nevermind mind her 46 is my focus lol oh my the things we do... enjoy ! 🚀 Induced resin production by dropping the lightschedule to 10/14 almost immediate effects were smelt, loud and clear : candy shop goodness ! this one is gonna be a sweet one ! 👊

These came down 11 weeks to the day from seed , this is them on their last day here. Wet weight is 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 was not expecting so much, it will last me HOURS ! these got wet trimmed now they're on the mat drying , the smell is typical american sweet candy ... was it fun? yes , yes it was fun ! what a plant this one is, my tallest one at 100cm, averaging 85cm , wet weight is.... gonna wait for dry weight, before i jinx it could be dense could be loose ! looks dense + not expecting to loose more than 50% it's all in the cure now ! 🚀

These candy canes I swear to god lol great work on the Test Seed Bank, these i can tell are gonna be loved by anyone who likes to taste smoke that taste like you're smoking weed grown in a cinema candy shop next to a lemon tree lol anyway it's got what i was looking for in the pheno hunt which is quick veg, large yields potent harvests. Came down at 11 weeks and a day , 2kg wet, vegged for four weeks, grew spectacularly thanks to careful vpd attentions and the smart protein clearly. A bit quicker than expected on the flowering, but surprisingly i guess the soil was well balanced because it's my smoothest smoke out of this run. Great work on the drying and curing so far, looking fantasting with that white weed look , slight hints of orange goodness and blues on the bag appeal makes this one my favorite to finger on the DL. Beyong that it's my first photo, but goddam it's potent, knocks me right out after two jays one and it's kinda like uhhhmmm what's going on, not exactly a "i have work today" kinda weed, maybe a "i forgot i had to go to sleep kinda weed" if that makes any sense? hit me up if you have any question, i'm on instagram too, if you like rap music and funsies. Thank you to REDACTED for all the good laughs along the way, idk if you noticed but things fall apart when they're not here ! God bless ! and keep and eye out for the extract diary coming up ! 🚀

Love testing out genetics thank you so much , next round incoming ! 🚀 So this grow clearly a very neat grow, kept right on top of things with VPD, always in the optimal ranges even if i had to manually tinker with the mister , the exhaust, the fans, the lights. Speaking of the lights i applied a "pumping technique" meaning moving the lights up a down : down going into flower, then up then down again towards the end of flower to trigger rippening. The smart proteins were used through out the grow meaning the veg went nuts, started smelling loud right out of seedling stage, then at flower stretch i think it does help give it a kick, mid flower though it makes the trichomes rippen quicker than the plant can put on biomass, meaning you get strong , ripe colas that come out a bit thin. Cut and harvested at 30% amber believe it or not, to me that's late but i couldnt believe it when i noticed the plant was ripe at 10 weeks so i let it go on a bit longer. wet trimmed and dried over 10 days, Jarred and cured for 2 months.

Hey man beautiful grow. Interesting with the light pumping I do something similar im ALWAYS adjusting my lights or spinning my ladies to get a different area exposed. I am Just curious. What type and size is your tent and how many plants(in 3gal pots by the look?) Do you have in there. I'm using a 60x48x80 Vivosun 2in1GT and I have issues holding the 16 girls I have then again there all in dif size buckets from 1gallon to 5. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yo you got some crazy grows. By the way, what kinda light did you use that you can recommend to put in a 4x4 tent? I was looking at a Chinese one that kinda looks like yours and its 800w. Right now I'm using HID like a caveman.

CRiSPrGrowcommented5 years ago
@SourDeez, yeah Man these are from China too, hid is the best mh+sodium side by side is even better , led is good for coverage that's what you're really after with led 👊🏻
