PapaTerps Girl Scout Cookies - Kannabia
SUMMER is upon us and grows that were started around March have been harvested, that means I have an empty tent or two! I've decided to start another couple of micro grows to accompany my main Summer Grow, which I started a couple of weeks ago ππ»
For this micro grow, I've selected Girl Scout Cookies by Kannabia Seeds - I've chosen this strain for both nostalgia and for her advertised 25% (we shall see). This is my first time growing seed from Kannabia, so it'll be a good test for the quality of the flower without having to expense my time and effort into something that may or may not turn out how I had hoped.
I will be vegging her for about 4 weeks and I will be using a mixture of growing techniques which I have used before, including topping with some low stress training. This will be a micro grow, so her pot size will be at most 1L in size. You're all more than welcome to follow along, I will try to detail my process without overloading each week with "Too Much Info"π
Day 1 (06/07)
- 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 πͺ
Day 5
- She has a nice stem and her first leaves have started to develop ππ»
Day 7
- She is growing fast, so I've moved her from the starter pot into her main grow pot; a 1L plastic Air Pot, which I have used in the past with good results. I think in a few days she will be in full veg ππ»

βοΈ This week has been busy, she grew really well last week, so today I've topped her to create six main stems! I've also transplanted her from her 1L AirPot into a 5L fabric pot - I've done this because I upgraded my setup recently and had more space, I also wanted to setup a drip watering system and the 1L AirPot was just too small for that.
π± Week 2 of Veg, she recovering from her topping as well as developing her root structure and switching her focus onto growing her four new main stems πͺπ»

Week 1 Bloom
πΈ She was flipped on 14/08, so she's a few days into bloom! She has started her stretch and pistils have started to shoot out of her budsites in abundant numbers, so she's fully in bloom now! I've also moved these girls out of the 5x5 this week as there just wasn't enough space for them in there.
βοΈ No work on her this week, I refrain from stressing my girls as much as possible during this phase πͺπ»
πΏ Watered every three days this week, with 1.5L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I ph'd the solution to 6.3. I've switch out her veg nutrients now for bloom nutrients; these volumes will slowly be increased over the next couple of weeks depending on her needs.

Week 2 of Bloom
πΈ Great week for the GSC, she completed her stretch and is now working hard on developing her budsites! She has stayed small because of her topping, but so have two of the other girls, so her canopy will be easy enough to manage. No signs of deficiencies or ailments π€π»
βοΈ I've removed all fan leaves stems and budsites below the canopy, to prevent any deasese mould or herming from happening. I will try to leave her now for a few weeks so she can focus on developing her flower; I've done this with all the girls in the 2x4.
π§ Watered every three days this week, with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I've increased her nutrients once again to keep up with her demands.

πΈ She's one of the smallest girl in the tent, so I've had to prop her up towards the light, but she looks beautiful and is working hard on developing her flower πͺπ» From today, all the girls have been moved into a 8x4 tent, because the 5x5 has been hard to manage.
βοΈ No work on her this week, I'm just letting her grow.
π§ Watered every three days with 2L of RO water, with nutrients mixed individually, in order and then finally, I pH'd the solution to 6.3. I've increased all of her nutrients, now that she is focusing on developing her flower, she'll need it.

Week 7 Bloom
πΈ Day 52 of bloom and she is looking great, she has started to show signs of maturity with her pisitils drying and turning amber, and a few of her trichomes have started to turn milky too! Her scent is also extremely strong, fruit cookies is the other thing I can compare it to, very pleasant! I'd say in a couple of weeks, she should be ready for harvest, so I will start to reduce her nutrients, get the temps as low as possible (it's still very warm outside here, so this will be a challenge) and keep the humidity down to get a stable VPD. The final few weeks are always the most stressful, but the key is always maintain low humility and stable VPD π»
βοΈ No work required this week and she won't need anything now until harvest ππ»
π§ Watered every three days with 3L of RO water - nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. I've altered her nutrients to meet her demains for week 7-8 of bloom.

Week 9 Bloom
πΈ She has matured well, her flower has bulked up and all of her pisitils have dried and turned amber, her trichomes have turned milky white and her leaves are beginning to yellow. Her scent has a zesty citrus with sweet pine undertones - so she's definitely leaning into the OG Kush genes. Another day or two and she should be ready for harvest ππ»
βοΈ No work performed on her since week 2 of bloom, she hasn't required it ππ»
π§ Watered via automatic drip irrigation every four days with 2L of RO water - nutrients were mixed individually, in order and then finally pH'd to 6.3. For the last two weeks, she has been getting a very small amount of fertilizer, forcing her to use any stored nutrients that she has been building up.
