Mac1 F1 Hybrid clones

Growfather1 Hello everyone, I've started a new diary for my two MAC1 F1 hybrid clones. Two weeks ago, I began by placing them in 5-liter Air-Pots. Yesterday, I transplanted them into larger 15-liter Air-Pots. My current plan is to keep them in the vegetative stage for at least another ten days before flipping them to flower. Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day. Best regards, Grow Father.

Growfather1 Hello everyone. ​The MAC 1 F1 Hybrid clones are settling in nicely, looking strong and vibrant a week after their move to the fifteen-liter pots. ​I’ve begun defoliation and successfully topped the main high nodes to encourage a more even canopy. ​Humidity is holding steady between sixty-five and seventy percent, with temperatures ranging from twenty to twenty-seven degrees. ​To ensure a smooth transition into flowering in about a week, I'm adjusting the feeding today, maximizing to three milliliters per liter of Canna Coco A and B. ​I’ll continue thinning out the lower foliage in the coming days so all that energy focuses on the top growth. ​Thanks for stopping by. ​Best regards, Growfather.

Growfather1 Hello everyone! My 2 MAC 1 F1 Hybrid clones are absolutely thriving in their 15L Air-pots. The environment is staying steady, with temperatures between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius and humidity ranging from 55 to 67 percent. I've been playing stylist this week, giving them some heavy topping and selectively removing the lazier fan leaves to let the light hit the lower branches. I'll keep working on their shape over the next 2 to 3 days. And about my last update—I need to issue a quick correction. I previously mentioned flipping to flower in 10 days, but I miscalculated. My ladies need a full 21 days, or 3 weeks, to really settle into their new homes after transplantation before we start the bloom cycle. Patience is a virtue, right? Thank you for stopping by and have a nice day. Best regards, Growfather

Growfather1 Hello everyone. My MAC 1 F 1 hybrid clones are now entering week 6 of their vegetative stage. I just finished defoliating them and topped them again today.Temperatures today are on the higher side at 27 degrees, and with the light running 24/7, it will drop to 24 degrees at night. I'm feeding them on the lower side with 2 milliliters of Canna Coco A and B and 4 milliliters of Canna Rhizotonic. They are ready to flower, but since I don't have a flower tent available for another 14 to 15 days, they will go into flower at week 8. I'm thinking this will make the pots too small and lead to underwatering, so I'll consider transplanting later. At this rate, my pots are going to start charging me rent for all the extra space they think they deserve. Thank you for stopping by, and have a nice day. Best regard, Growfather.

Growfather1 Hello everyone. Here is the update for my Mac 1 F1 hybrid clones. They are entering week 7 of the vegetative state. They are completely ready to go into flower, but I don't have any flowering tents available right now. Because of this, they will have to stick around for a week longer in the veg tent. I guess you could say they are currently suffering from a severe case of tent-envy. On the bright side, everything is looking fantastic. I gave them a good defoliation and removed all the lower nodes. For the rest, there isn't much else to tell. The temperature sits comfortably between 21° to 26° Celsius. Humidity is sitting at 65%. Thank you for stopping by, and let's see how she looks next week. Best regards, Growfather

Growfather1 Hello everyone. Here is the update for my Mac 1 F1 hybrid clones. The two plants are entering week 8 of the vegetative state. As I mentioned a couple of weeks before, I have no flowering tent available right now. Because of this, they have to keep waiting in line until a tent opens up so they can finally switch to flowering. Humidity is well in check, sitting comfortably between 61% and 67%. The temperature is swinging between 21°C and 26°C at the peak moments, though it mostly stays under 24°C. There really isn't much else to tell for this week. I just picked a couple of leaves off to tidy them up, but I didn't do any topping. So let's see how she looks next week. Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day. Best regards, Growfather

Growfather1 Hello everyone. Here is the update for my Mac 1 F1 hybrid clones. The two plants are officially entering week 9 of the vegetative stage. They've been vegging for so long that I’m starting to think they believe this is a permanent lifestyle choice rather than a temporary phase! I am about three days late getting this diary post up, but we will be back on schedule with the next update on Tuesday. They got a very thorough defoliation yesterday, and I made sure to remove the lower nodes to clean things up. Right now, everything is looking completely fine. The environment has been very stable: • Temperature: Steady between 21°C and 24°C. • Humidity: Sitting comfortably above 62%. The big question now is what happens next. I am hoping to switch them over to flower by next week, but it all hinges on one final decision: do I transplant them into a bigger pot. There really isn’t much else to report for this week. Let’s see what we decide to do by next Tuesday. Thanks for stopping by and have a nice day. Best regards, Growfather

Growfather1 Hello everyone, Welcome to the week 10 update for my Mac 1 F1 hybrid clones. They’ve officially reached a double-digit vegetative stage, and honestly, at this rate, they might start asking me for a retirement plan before they ever see a single flower bud! The biggest news this week is about the tools of the trade. It turns out my pH meter was way off. Luckily, my new calibration liquids arrived yesterday, and I immediately calibrated both of my meters. From this point forward, we are locking in perfect accuracy and assuming nutrient lockouts are officially a thing of the past. Speaking of nutrients, I have transitioned over to Plagron Coco A and B (just in case I forgot to mention it last week). The girls are currently drinking up reverse osmosis water mixed with 3.5 ml of Plagron Coco A and B per liter. Because RO water is practically blank when it comes to minerals, I am also supplementing with 1 ml of Canna Calmag Agent per liter to keep them perfectly balanced. The environment is sitting nicely as well: • Temperature: Holding steady at 25° Celsius. • Humidity: Staying comfortably above 63%. The next step is the big upgrade. I am just waiting for the 10-gallon air pots to become available, which should likely happen this Saturday or Sunday. As soon as they land, I will be transplanting the clones right into them to give their roots some massive room to explode before the big flip. For now, that's all folks. Thank you for stopping by and have a nice day.

Growfather1 Hello everyone, Welcome to the week 11 update for my Mac 1 F1 Hybrid clone diary part 1! I’m finally finished with the second pot transplant just minutes ago, and honestly, my back is absolute killing me! I transplanted her into a massive 39 L pot using a really good, airy substrate mix of coco and perlite. I took my sweet time to thoroughly mix the coco and perlite together to ensure great aeration for the roots, and then finished it all off with a nice, clean top layer of pure coco. Right after the move, I gave her 20 L of feeding, and now the pot is dripping heavily. I’m going to let it drip out completely for about 2 hours, and then she goes straight into her final adjusting place in the tent. She’s going to sit comfortably in there to recover and veg out for at least 3 weeks before I switch the lights over to flowering. I’m currently running 3 days too late with this week's diary entry, so I will be back in 4 days with another update. Thank you for stopping by and have a good weekend! Regards, Growfather
