Soaked seeds in water for 24 hrs. Used the paper towel method till sprouts were about 1/4-1/2 inch long. Placed the seeds root down in plastic bottles I cut in half. Stuck with Dutch Treat planter mix the whole grow.
All 5 seeds germinated, using only PH'd water until I transplant from bottles placed on a window sill to the final pots outside.
I never took many pictures, Im posting this nearing harvest and one plant is leaching from leaves.
5 gallon pots painted white to reduce heat to the precious roots. Dutch Treat soil mix and some Dutch Treat water saver(not using this again as the 5 gal holds enough to never worry about going dry too fast). Added some propagation plus in transplant root zone just to test it out, I don't believe it hurt anything, didn't add much just eyeballed it.
Just used PH'd water up till now, Started hitting them with some food, mix ratios aren't exact, just going off of memory.
One plant had it's stem rot at the soil level due to someone else watering my plants while I was trying to dry them out
Started LST with tomato cages and some soft green wire. Also hitting plants with some neem/soap spray to control Thrips. The damage they do doesn't seem to appear for a while after they've fed on the leaves. Im out there every morning squishing them against the plants and it never ends.
I really like the little spiders helping me out
I wasn't keeping track of week #s, but after the flowers began developing I stopped spraying my plants with Neem/Insecticide soap and placed sticky strips around the base of the plants.
These strips were 100% worth it and I believe they saved my harvest quality or possible the entire grow, there are hundreds of thrips/fungus gnats/aphids/earwigs stuck to them. Unfortunately some spiders as well.
Im still out every day looking for bugs, but the strips really put an end to the bugs coming back
This is about when I flushed the plants after noticing bottom fan leaves turning color on one plant. I went pretty light on the nutes and only noticed maybe a couple burnt tips the entire grow... but I think I flushed early anyways.
Flushed by using only PH'd water and some aloe vera gel with the last rinse because why not, heard good things about it a while ago on some organic grow videos.
This is where I'm at right now, just waiting for harvest. The stem rotted plant ended up recovering and is only now starting to flower. One plant I placed in a raised garden bed fell over from wind, it also recovered but didn't grow very well due to shit soil.
The other 3 did great. The strain still seems to be varied,
Plant 1 has fat buds and looks like your average plant.
Plant 2 had me thinking it was making nanners, the bud formation is strange to me and doesn't have that "cone" shape. But it is by far the frostiest, trichomes produced very early compared to the other two.
Plant 3 looks more like plant 1, but more airy like plant 2... just smaller buds I guess
