Three Chocolate Heavens

MyrceneDream Seeds were germinated in peat pellets at 82F, 75%+ RH, and took about 3 days to pop out of top. Transferred peat pellets to solo cups filled with Fox Farms Happy Frog soil as a starter. Gently removed seed shell and placed indirectly under veg light at lowest intensity. Slowly started bringing up the light’s intensity for a few days until optimal was reached. Chocolate Heaven #3 originally looked like it was going to dampen off but after giving only a few drops of water and waiting until it dried a bit, it is now looking good and pretty much caught up to the other two. Chocolate Heaven #1 seems to be the best of the 3. It’s growth is much quicker and it looks the healthiest in general so far.

MyrceneDream -Added a bit of Marphyl Marine Phytoplankton to waterings. -Chocolate Heaven #1 is significantly faster in growth than 1 and 2. -Will be transplanting into 5 gallon pots with Pro-Mix HP as the medium in a few days.

MyrceneDream -Transplanted to 5 gallon fabric pots containing Pro-Mix BX as the medium. There was immediate response to the transplanting, and growth picked up right away, so I decided to top and start training. -Started giving nutrients on day 7 of this week.

MyrceneDream -Continuing training to keep an even canopy. -Started adding calcium/magnesium (CaMg+). -Chocolate Heaven #1 outgrowing 2 and 3

MyrceneDream Continuing training/mainlines and did second top on #1. #1 is also yellowing a bit compared to 2 and 3 because of its double speed growth and size so I will be ramping up nutrients a bit on it next week

MyrceneDream Gave a bokashi compost tea mid week and they are responding so well to it. Keeping up with bending and defoliation every few days.

MyrceneDream -Keeping up with defoliation every few days. -Main stem split on #1 from bending and has been tied to heal. -#2 is very much a bushy indica dominant pheno compared to the other 2 plants so taking extra care to not have a bunch of bunched up leaves causing condensation.

MyrceneDream -Gave Bokashi Pro Gro compost tea with liquid calcium and bone meal to prepare them for the switch to flower with a boost of phosphorus. -Week 9 will be the last week of vegetative stage before moving to my flowering area

MyrceneDream -Little bit of tip burn from the added phosphorus last week -Gave compost tea at end of week containing bokashi compost, phytoplankton, mycorrhizae, and calcium/magnesium

MyrceneDream -Did a massive defoliation at the end of the week and will continue to defoliate every few days until the end of flower week 3 -Stretching has already started and I am attempting to keep a fairly even canopy with training

MyrceneDream -Stretching quite a bit especially #2 and looking like 3 different phenos -#1 is a huge feeder compared to the other 2 so I have added a bit more bio-grow and bio-bloom and the slight yellowing it was showing is starting to go away -Did a mass defoliation and will continue to remove large fan leaves and leaves blocking light to bud sites until the end of week 3

MyrceneDream -Stretch is almost reaching double what plant height was before the switch to flower. -Buds are forming nicely and getting hairy with pistils

MyrceneDream -Fed bokashi compost tea mid week -Stretching has stopped and buds are starting to thicken up -A bit of a fade has started and in about a week and half will start to feed only water with a touch of calcium/magnesium

MyrceneDream -Slowly starting to fade and buds are fattening up nicely -Gave last feeding of nutrients and in a few days will start feeding water only with a touch of calcium/magnesium -Sporadically removing a few leaves for good airflow around buds

MyrceneDream -Had an issue with high temps for a few days and in turn a bit of heat stress -#1 and #3 are both fading while #2 is slowly beginning to -Giving only water with a small amount of calcium/magnesium until harvest

MyrceneDream -Fixed issue with temperature spike which was due to a problem with my A/C and temp is back to normal now -#1 suffered some leaf drying because of the heat spike but buds are looking fine -Many trichomes are still clear on all 3 so I will be giving them a bit more time to ripen before harvesting

MyrceneDream -Harvested all 3 at once, did a wet trim on #1 and a dry trim on the other two after a week of drying. -Drying environment was dialed into 68-70F 45-50RH -These all ended up being a lot taller than expected so in hindsight I wish I had removed a lot of lower foliage half way down them all to avoid so much larf. -Other than a bit of heat stress near the end, the entire grow went great and the plants all took very well to mainlining and training
