Day 0: I started this seed by inoculating in URB for 25 min before moving to a jiffy pellet that had been soaking in 6.3 pH water. I placed it under my T5 shelf setup for seeds/clones. Inoculating in URB is supposed to potentially pop the seed in as little as 2 days. I’m excited to grow this strain! Ill be doing an indica tent and a sativa tent this run. I’ll be using the 2-part Emerald Harvest line again and when it comes time for 7 gallon fabric pots, I’m going to buy some new ones. The buildup is pretty bad in the ones I’ve been using. I suspect I’ll veg for 9-10 weeks and then flower for another 9-10 depending on how she performs.
Day 3: it has begun and we have liftoff! Time to move this odiferous chess piece on the board. Bishop to f4!
Day 4: she’s stretching for the sky! I put her in a solo cup with Happy Frog soil and moved her under my led veg setup.
Day 7: things are off to a good start. I have her under two platinum led p150s with only the veg switches on. It’s a closet setup until I harvest one of the tents. Then the closet will be a drying area. It’s a bit warm in there right now with zero air flow. I’ll be adding a small fan soon. Spraying with cal-mag foliar spray and going light on the watering.
Day 15: she is really taking off now under the LEDs. I did a light feeding a few days ago and and still letting them dry out. A little warmer that I want at 85 degrees, but they don’t seem to mind.
Day 22: transplanted to 1 gal fabric pots yesterday and hit the soil with 30ml URB (for transplanting) and 10ml of Molasses for Plants as food for the URB microbes. She is growing strong and looking very healthy!
Day 29: this plant is a beast!! I can’t believe how much she grew in just a week being in the 1gal pot. The node spacing is much greater than I wanted since it’s going to be difficult to scrog now. Trying to figure out the best way to do that now. I may have to bury her up to her neck! I harvested my Dinafem run last night, so I moved them into the tent out of the hot closet.
Day 36: transplanted to 7 gal pot, topped a second time and started LST to get her prepped for the scrog in the coming weeks. She’s growing just right to become a nice bushy plant!
Day 50: Definitely growing strong! I’ve been working some LST tie downs to shape more of a bush for the scrog. Onward!
Day 54: did some LST tie downs today to help spread out the canopy.
Day 57: installed the screen two days ago and turned both veg and bloom switches on and did a major defol under the canopy to get as much light penetration as possible. A couple more weeks and it will be flower time!!
Day 64: starting week 10 if veg now. I went back to veg lightninlt and raised the led to 24”. I was a bit closer than that and with both switches on, they didn’t seem to care for the extra heat. They have responded well over th last two days from that change. Still watering half gallon per plant every other day. I tried 3/4 gal last week, but they didn’t like that either. I’ll likely flip to 12-12 next week, but I’ll make that call later this week.
Day 71: Flower time!! At last, the time has come to flip the lights to 12/12. These babes are growing strong and I’m excited to see how they progress in the coming weeks. I sure do love this hobby!
Day 78: the stretch is on!! The smells are increasing and the growth spurt is commencing. Beautiful plants that smell amazing! Very rich potent stink on the fingers after moving everything around. Stinkin bishop is going to be something special!! I just wish she had the energy of her tentmate.
Day 85: the stretch seems to have subsided and the buds are blooming in full force! So far, so good with this run! She’s a bit small compared to the others in this run, but I’ll take whatever she gives me at this point.
Day 92: finished week three of flower with a major defol under and through th canopy. That should help get more light down into the lower branches. She’s starting to smell nice now. I suspect things will get stinkier soon.
Day 106: This beauty has packed on a TON of weight in the last week. Holy crap! I had to switch to the good camera and get some shots. I was in a hurry, so I only took a few of each plant. Don't forget to check out my other diaries and see how the other strains are doing!
Day 113: She is a beauty! But she's not gaining much weight. She's changing color already and smells fantastic! There's still time yet, but I think she's going to yield some popcorn bugs instead of nice big flowers. Time will tell!
Day 120: She's smelling delightful! Her colors are beautiful and she has a much different look than her tent-mate. She looks to be finishing up faster than expected, so I will be checking trichomes over the next coupld of days and plan a flush accordingly. She probably has 2-3 weeks left now.
Day 128: I started flushing a few days ago. These babes crept up on me and were very close to ready very quickly! I may chop her down in a week, perhaps sooner. I'll keep an eye on her and see what I think.
She wasn't the biggest plant, but she has tight little popcorn buds that really pack a punch! She smells delicious and has a great taste when smoking. I was actually surprised at how stony she was. I smoked some in the evening and felt great and then smoked what was left on the tray the next morning and she shot me to the moon! Great strain and I will definitely try her again in the future and hope to get a better yield next time.
Nice grow I am sure they will fatten up nicely. I was wondering for a while now whats hanging on your tent walls?
Best of luck and a successful harvest

@gdogfunk, Oh nice thats really clever never heard of them before. Thx for sharing might be something to look into when I upgrade my lights
Have a good day and best of luck with the grow

@@Thedaily_stoner, thank you! What you see hanging on both sides of the tent are Exhale CO2 bags. They are bags of fungi that do no grow mushrooms, but 'exhale' CO2 that rains down over the plants since CO2 is heavier than air. I honestly don't know if they are really helping, but I've been using them for awhile now. My understanding is that if there is more CO2, the plants can absorb even more light, so I try to maximize growth with everything I can along the way.
@Fibro_Witch, thank you! I will be using this camera for the rest of the grow :) Be sure to check out my other diaries of my other plants as well for some good photos!
