PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds SUMMER is upon us and grows that were started around March are a week or so away from harvest - so that means I'll have an empty tent pretty soon! So I've decided to start another grow for this Summer and into Autumn. 🙌 For this grow, I've selected Zu-Tang Clan by N.Y.Ceeds - I chose this strain for her Lavender/Herbal flavours, Happy/Calming effects and also for her genetics, which is a Blue Zu #92 (Sin City Seeds) crossed with Spitzer (Cannarado Seeds). I've used this breeder before, he tends to breed some interesting and complex plants, I've also heard really good things about this particular strain, so I'm really excited to see how this one turns out! I will be vegging her for about 8 weeks and I will be using a mixture of growing techniques, which I have used before, including topping with some low stress training. You're all more than welcome to follow along, I will try to detail my process without overloading each week with "Too Much Info"😅 Description: Purchase: https://house-of-seeds.de/en/products/zu-tang-clan-nyceeds?_pos=1&_psq=Zu&_ss=e&_v=1.0 Day 1 (16/06) - Seed dropped into a small metal screw tin filled with RO Tap water pH'd to 6.3 and stored in a dark warm room - she will remain here until the seed pops and a taproot appears; I will check the progress of the seed every ~12 hours. Day 2 - The seed has already popped and a taproot has appeared, so I've filled a small 0.3L paper starter pot with some All-Mix and dropped the seed in! Day 3 - The seedling has already appeared from the soil, but her starter leaves have yet to breach, so tomorrow morning she should be out for us 💪 Day 5 - She has a nice long stem and her first leaves have started to develop 🙌🏼 Day 7 - She has started growing her second set of leaves, so in a couple of days she should be big and strong enough to consider her in veg!🎉

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Day 9 🚿 Watered every three days with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I have upped her Fish-Mix and Acti-Vera nutrients to promote growth and plant health! ✂️ I've removed two of her top most fan leaves to improve light penetration to the lower nodes, this will encourage lower stem growth. 🌱 Week 2 of Veg, and she's working on stretching, developing her root system, strengthening her main stem as well as producing lower side stems 💪🏻

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Day 17 🚿 Watered every three days with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I pH'd the solution to 6.3. From next week, the FishMix will be replaced with the BioGrow!👍🏼 ✂️ I've removed a couple of her lower fan leaves to improve airflow and I've also topped her main stem to allow the lower stems to grow up and form a consistent canopy 💪🏼 seedling Week 3 of Veg, she recovered from her first topping and has started to grow out her lower stems and supporting fan leaves! She has been growing pretty consistent and is exactly where I expected her to be - N.Y.Ceeds is doing it for me 💁🏼‍♂️ From next week, I will begin some low stress training, I will also be moving all these girls into a larger 5x5, so watch this space 💁🏼‍♂️

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Day 26 🚿 Watered every four days with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually and in order, finally I ph'd the solution to 6.3. No alterations to her feeding. ✂️ This week I've lollipopped her to improve airflow and to encourage her to grow up, but other than that, she's just growing! 🌱 Week 4 of Veg, and she's worked really hard on stretching and developing her stems! She's grown a lot in the last week, so I'm more confident that she'll produce the goods for Papa! I've moved her into a 5x5 tent now along with all of the other plants in this grow, I will also be setting up a drip feed system from next week to streamline the feeding process 👌🏻

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Day 34 🚿 Watered every four days with 3L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I ph'd the solution to 6.3. I've reduced her root nutrient as she no longer requires it and increased her CalMag because some of the plants were showing signs of magnesium deficiency. From next feeding, I will start to introduce her bloom nutrients. ✂️ I've given her a good pre-flower defoliation and I've lollipopped her up to about where her first topping occurred. I've also introduced some training clips to help her canopy grow evenly. She will be left alone now until her stretch phase of flower has completed. 🌱 Week 5 of Veg and 52 days from seed, she has absolutely shot up this week nearly doubling her height, so I've moved her into the corner of the tent to slow her down a bit; she is much taller than the BigZ, which had been the biggest plant up until this week! She started showing signs of maturity last week, but now she has pistils protruding from all her bud sites, so she is ready for the 12/12 switch. Another week or so to go, but she's ready 💪🏼

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Week 1 of Bloom 🚿 Watered every three days this week, with 3L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I've switched out her veg nutrients now for bloom nutrients; these volumes will slowly be increased over the next couple of weeks depending on her needs. ✂️ No work on her this week, I don't usually defoliate or train my girls during the first and second week of bloom because I want to reduce as much stress as possible. 🌸 She's looking absolutely fabulous! She has big strong lateral stems, with a nice canopy with no signs of deficiencies or illnesses, so she is ready for the 12 switch. I gradually reduced her light schedule over the last five days until she hit the 12 hour schedule today, so today is her first day "in bloom"! She should start her stretch pretty soon, so she'll be left to grow for the next couple of weeks. 💡 PPFD: ~650 ♒ VPD: 1.1kPa PH: 6.3 🌱 Days from seed: 61 🌸 Days in Bloom: 1

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Week 2 of Bloom 💧 Watered every three days this week, with 3L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I've increased her bloom nutrients again, and I will continue to do that over the next few weeks to keep up with her growth requirements 👍🏼 ✂️ No work on her this week, I tend to leave my girls alone during the first and second week of bloom. 🌸 Week 2 of bloom and she's doing great, she's stretching really well and her budsites have the beginnings of flower, so she's well and truly into bloom now! Soo. I'll have to start managing the odour, as the tent begins to fill with that beautiful scent 🙌🏼 PS: Sorry for the generic photos, I didn't want to move the girls around for pics - the Zu-Tang is at the center back; the tallest plant 👍🏼 💡 PPFD: ~700 ♒ VPD: 1.28kPa PH: 6.3 🌱 Days from seed: 70 🌸 Days in Bloom: 11

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Week 3 of Bloom 🌸 She has finished her stretch and is working hard on developing her flower! Her scent is also present, very similar to the other Spitzer cross that I grew at the start of the year; fruity creamy. She has big strong lateral stems and she looks really healthy, so all good so far 🙌🏻 ✂️ I've lollipopped her again, removing all leaves, stems, and bud sites below the top 5-6 nodes from the canopy - these lower branches won't develop into anything and will more than likely cause problems later down the line. I've also removed a couple of the larger fan leaves from her center, to improve airflow and light penetration 💪🏻 💧 Watered every three days with 4L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I've increased some of her nutrients and added the AlgaMix as a precaution to any temperature fluctuations that might occur this time of year. 💡 PPFD: ~740 ♒ VPD: 1.34kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 78 🌸 Days in Bloom: 19

PapaTerps Zu-Tang Clan - N.Y.Ceeds Week 4 Bloom 🌸 She's spectacular! She has a beautiful flower structure and even though she has strong thick stems, the weight of the flower has forced me to introduce some supports, which has never happened to me before this early! Her scent is also incredible, transporting you to the South of France with a strong sweet lavender scent, accompanied with a beautiful herbal creamy finish - simply divine! All the girls have been moved into the Spider Farmer 8x4, because the 5x5 and 4x2 were too difficult to manage 👍🏻 ✂️ No work this week, she has good airflow and light is penetrating to the lower budsites👌🏻 💧 Watered every three days with 4L of RO water - nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. I've increased her nutrients again to keep up with her flower production. 💡 PPFD: ~800 ♒ VPD: 1.48kPa 🌱 Days from seed: 87 🌸 Days in Bloom: 28
