awwwwwwwwwww Time for grow #6! Mephisto was sold out of O'z, so I bought from Humboldt for the first time and got their Hella Jelly, which may be their best strain.
Objective is to finally stop the high PH and yellowing/dying leaves, so I am growing organic for the first time, using BioBizz soil and nutes. I will also be using the bottom-feeder for the first time. Hoping for 10-12 ounces.
Plant 1 - Mephisto O'z
Plant 2 - Mephisto Strawberry Nuggets x Livers BX1 (freebie cross)
Plants 3 & 4 - Humboldt Hella Jelly
All 4 seeds germinated on the 4th day in 80/80 conditions. Two were yellow at first but turned green the next day. I took the shell off of #3 and cotyledons look a little funny

awwwwwwwwwww Looking good so far! 260 PPFD, 18 DLI. 0.77 VPD. I just added more soil since it started sinking. Gave them 1.0L water each after germination, and 1.8L 2 days later. Temperatures are little high due to the weather, but no worries. The fan on the 6-year-old light stopped working, so I may need a new one for next grow.
#1) Looking the best so far, which is what I was hoping for. Really want a big yield on this one
#2) I took the shell off after day after germination. One cotyledon is bent but looks good otherwise
#3) Was light color, but back to green today
#4) No issues

awwwwwwwwwww Day 16 and looking good. Increased light to 65% and now 275 PPFD and 20 DLI. Added more soil and filled the bottom-feeding pots for the first time. I watered the tops and it hasn't dried out in the 5-6 days since, so it must be working as intended. Garden Glimpse only 13%, but that may be from leaving the tent open to get the bottom-feedings going. The next 10 days are pivotal because that's when my high PH and yellowing issues tend to start.
1) O'z - Easily the biggest one, which is ideal. It's the only wrinkly one, but no big deal
2) Strawberry Nuggets x Livers BX1 - This is in the best shape as it prays the most
3) Hella Jelly [A] - Looks good
4) Hella Jelly [B] - Smallest one. May be a compact plant

awwwwwwwwwww Day 23. Eventful week! 0.7 VPD.
Topped plants #1-#3. Tent started to smell, and leaves smell after touching them. Increased light from 65% to 80% (375 PPFD, 27 DLI). Added side lighting, shirt hangars (to expand tent space), and my new oscillating fan. Gave nutrients for the first time. Started leaf-tucking. May defoliate next week. Both Hella Jelly plants have weird, rounded leaves near the bottom, which I thought was a mutation at first.
Temps changing from the weather, which I guess is why the Garden Glimpse numbers are bad, but it never seems to affect anything.
All plants 6.5" except for #4 (5.0"). I will probably add the trellis next week.
1) O'z - A little yellowing of the leaf ends, but nothing concerning yet. Looks less lively than the others. Stems turning purple.
2) Strawberry Nuggets x Livers BX1 - Still looks the healthiest.
3) Hella Jelly [A] - Looking perky.
4) Hella Jelly [B] - Didn't top because I want this runt to be as tall as the others.

awwwwwwwwwww Day 30. 0.6 VPD. Increased light to 100%. PPFD 450, DLI 40.
Another good week with a lot of growth. Defoliated and lollipopped plants #2-#4, but not O'z just in case leaves burn off. Weather got hot and humid, and temp/humidity went as high as 87/87. Gave Bloom nutrients for the first time. Also gave mycorrhizae for the first time and will probably do it again in a month. Pistils showing around Day 25.
Garden Glimpse numbers are still bad, then I realized I never opened the trap door to let air in, so hopefully next week will have better numbers.
1) O'z - 16". A little burning of tips, which may be from nutrients. Base of stem looks the best. Leaves getting a little lighter. Was sweating to due humidity, which isn't a big deal
2) Strawberry Nuggets x Livers BX1 - 11.5"
3) Hella Jelly [A] - 12"
4) Hella Jelly [B] - 11"
