MontanaManMedical Time for another freebie grow. This one comes courtesy of Homegrown Cannabis Co., who kindly reached out. Thanks! Chocolope is a strain that I’ve wanted to grow for a while, but was concerned about the stretch and my ability to handle it.
Now that I have two monster sativas (Desfrán and Golden Tiger) under my belt, I’m comfortable growing this one. I’ve only seen it in dispensaries from time to time when I used to go, so I haven’t had the pleasure of enjoying it that often.
While the first seed didn’t pop, the second one did and looks healthy its first day of veg.

MontanaManMedical She’s still quite small, but looking strong and healthy. I’m starting off the nutrients on the light side. As you can see by the 4th picture, the roots haven’t gotten long enough to reach the reservoir, so I’m still manually feeding her for the time being. I doubt it takes more than a few days for the roots to reach the reservoir.

MontanaManMedical The plant has grown significantly, with the roots reaching the reservoir mid-week. I’m still keeping the nutrients light for another week, as the plant seems happy with the current amount.

MontanaManMedical Growth continues to accelerate, so I’ve upped the nutrients a bit, along with turning the light up from 75% - 100% power, as she now has the leaves to take advantage of the extra light. I did a little bit of defoliation, similar to what I did for Mimosa x The Brunch, in order to push growth towards the top of the plant. She seems to have responded well. The roots are looking bright and healthy.

MontanaManMedical Growth has exploded in the last week! She has a nice set of healthy roots, which should support some nice-sized buds. I’ve done some additional defoliation in increments to minimize stress to the plant. She has one more week to grow before she’s put into flowering. I imagine that she’ll be significantly taller by next week.

MontanaManMedical She’s ready to go into the flowering tent, which will happen within a few hours after these pictures were taken. I’ve upped the nutrients again so that the plant has plenty for transitioning into flowering. Newer leaf growth is very green and healthy.

MontanaManMedical It’s only been a week, but she’s just shy of the bottom trellis net! Her color has gotten even healthier since being moved into the flowering tent. Everything is looking good, with a nice set of healthy roots. I imagine she’ll be to the top trellis net within the next week.

MontanaManMedical Growth has accelerated rapidly, with her gaining over a foot of height in a week. I’ve done some additional defoliation in stages throughout the week. Now all that is left is to guide the plant through the trellis nets. You can see that in these pictures. By next week most of the branches should be to the top net. A really healthy looking plant all around.

MontanaManMedical She continues to stretch, with most of the branches making it to the top trellis net. I’ve done some pinching to slow those down and give the ones that are a little below the net a chance to catch up. Things are looking good for a sea of colas. I imagine that at 95% Sativa, she’ll likely stretch for another week. We’ll see how much more she stretches in that time. She's already budding out substantially, so perhaps that stretch will be less as the plant is dedicating more of its energy to bud production.

Roots in the res already, she's flying! Smart call keeping the nutes light while she's this happy. Chocolope in DWC should be a fun one to watch, looking forward to the next update 🌱
