Rapid Rooter soaked in water, excess squeezed out. 2mL kelp injected into hole. Seed placed in hole. Small piece of RR placed over top of hole with 1mL of kelp injected over top. Placed in a Ziploc for humidity dome substitute. 6/7 Arise = Arisen
pHd water and a 1 gallon root pot is all I got this week.
Update: 6/13 medium is dry. Watered with 500mL of 1mL/L Kelp pHd to 6.5.
6/17 2mL/gallon of CNS17 Bloom + 0.3125 grams of MgSO4.
Environment is steady at 75 F and 50% rh. Light off temps around 68.
7/9 OK, decided that I am not willing to put in the time to clone right now, and to be honest, I didn't really get a lot out of the process. So I like growing from seed...takes all kinds.
Anyway, I transplanted from 1 gallon fabric pots to 5 gallon auto-feed hempy buckets...yep, you read that right. And, they look great. Flipped em on 7/9. My guess is that this is a male. Just a hunch.
7/16 Day 7 of Flower.
Switched to bloom nutrients. First reservior change. Had some floaty shit in the water left in the 1st reservior. Not sure what that is about but I did not add Hydroguard to the last res. Added it to this one. Air has been on the whole time so it was not stagnant.
7/30 Day 21 of Flower.
Gone for a week and came back to some super stretch. Had to supercrop in a few spots to keep it all under the lights. Definitely smells like sandalwood. Hempy bucket kept it alive for a week with no supervision.
8/6 Day 28 of Flower.
Bumped up the nutrients and adding a little more p/k. The autowater hempy is stupid easy...it's like the Ronco...set it and forget it. Seriously, could go the entire veg cycle without doing anything other than loading the reservior 1 time.
The Arise is doing well. Supercropped it and it took 3 day to heal and recover. Looks like full steam ahead. She stretched ALOT in the 3rd week and HOLY SHIT ALOT in the 4th. Now that week 5 is here, the pistils are plentiful and multiplying rapidly. I don't anticipate any find single colas but it sure looks like it is going to have some REALLY nice buds.
*She took the HST in stride FYI 👍
8/13 Day 35 of Flower.
Things are running on auto-pilot right now. Knock on wood, everything is good. Week 6 is starting and this is when I get impatient. Arise took a little longer to show bud set but is making up for the time with extremely fast flowering in terms of size of the buds. Lots of calyxes really fast. The buds remind. Me of gigantic Pussy Willow flowers. Maybe this will be the Pussy Willow cut if it turns out to be FIRE?! Sandlewood is the aroma...needed to do some creative trellising.
8/19 Last day of week 6. The nutrient solution is a bit hot and I am seeing some light tip burn on the fan leaves, but so far it seems to be minimal. I will be backing off on the nutrients next week so that I can get ready for the flush. I plan on harvesting at day 63 as recommended by the breeder. I have been a listener of his podcast for quite some time and don't believe that he would say 63 days if he did not really recommend 63 days. And, I had Jack Herer for my last grow that I let go 12 weeks and the trichomes never went Amber. So, I am going to start harvesting at recommended days per the breeder and put the trichome color method to the side for a while. I realize that some will say the days given by the breeder are not necessarily true times for flowering due to wanting to promote fast flowering times. That may be but I am going to give this a shot and see how it goes. Sometimes we overthink things.
8/26 Day 48 of Flower
Flushing now. Beginning to fox tail just a bit. New pistils but still all cloudy and coming down in 4 days.
8/24 Day 46 of Flower
I have to be honest, I had some doubts about this plant up until about week 4-5 of flower. I wasn't perfect with this grow and Arise didn't show any signs of stressing, but this plant grew just kind of "regular", nothing impressive until week 4 of flower and then it was like a sprint to the finish line. Huge stretch super fast bud development. I am cutting at day 52 of flower. All white trichomes, time to come down.
Day 42 of Flower.
Beginning of week 7 and I am prepping for harvest at day 63.
8/28 Day 50 of flower: This is what I get for "planning". Checked my buds last night and I am getting whole new crops of clear trichomes popping up all over the place with the remainder of the "old" trichomes remaining cloudy. Not an Amber in sight, so I am back to trichome watch and I will likely not be cutting on Friday as I had planned. No nutrients since last week Friday. Flushing from here.
Arise is easy to grow and given the fact that I did not do much training or manicuring, I pulled an ok amount for a first run. If this is a standard pheno and I get it again there is no reason I can't pull 5 oz off of a 4 week veg.
