Cindy 99

GrowsGanjaGuy This will be my 2nd grow but first time with photoperiods. I am interested in trying different grow techniques such as topping,fiming, and LST all together. Last grow I only used the Fox Farm trio and LST, now with more nutes and training stats I hope to see better yields.

GrowsGanjaGuy End of week 2. All plants are growing very healthy. I have been able to maintain the temp and RH more stable than my last grow.

GrowsGanjaGuy I decided to start LST I know it is very early but I am being very careful and want to see if they can handle it. Can't wait to top these girls soon. I also fed them 3 ml of cal-mag just 1 time and probably not any time soon again since I am growing in soil. I have no clue why that 1 plant is still so small compared to the other 2.

GrowsGanjaGuy Did I top correctly...its my first time. Hope they recover I want to try to top a few times. Little less that 1/4 open sesame. I dropped the lights down to 2 ft. UPDATE: 08-17-19 Bought silica blast (botanicare) because temperature difference between night and day is pretty big.....hot girl summer. Allows plants to withstand extreme temps and thicker stems and branches (takes up water and nutrients faster). I can wait to see if this is true and hope it makes my girls happy. UPDATE: 08-19-19 Bought and sprayed organocide to my plants. No insects but a preventative measure. 20 ml in 1/4 gallon of water. Strong fish oil smell and make sure to spray plants right before lights off in order to prevent burning leaves.

GrowsGanjaGuy This is the middle of week 5 and the plants have recovered well from the top. On one of the plants I missed my top (FIM) so now 3 tops are coming in, in one spot. Other than that lower growth is happy and healthy. I will try giving the smallest plant more nutrients this week and see what happens because its phenotype Is definitely smaller than the other two.

GrowsGanjaGuy Beginning of week 6 and I decided the girls recovered enough so I topped them once more. After they recover from this top I think I will flip to flower. Once I flip they will be trained by a trellis net in a 5x5 grow room with 2 600w led lights. Each plant will now have 4 main tops and I hope they stretch some because they seem very short at the moment.

GrowsGanjaGuy This week I have not fed any nutrients just ph balanced water and flushed at the beginning of the week since I am about to flip the plants once they recover from their 2nd top. The 3rd plant is still very small and deformed compared to these healthy girls but I will veg out longer and see what comes out of that small plant. I have my 2nd tent all set up and ready from when I flip them. (2 trellis nets, 2 600w LEDs fans filter dehumidifier etc...) the girls have been giving a slight scent of sweetness and I cant wait for buds to form to really bring out that smell. The 2 girls have been taking lst and topping very well with around 8-10 tops. I might try to clone them.

GrowsGanjaGuy I decided to move them into the 5x5 room of flower. I tried to bend as many branches down through the net. I have 2 nets, 1 for early flower and another one for later in flower. I also decided to raise the light to help the plants stretch a little more so that I can get a wider spread for the 2nd net.

GrowsGanjaGuy First full week of 12/12 light cycle and no pistils have shown. Because of this I finally moved the smaller mutated c99 into the tent and will turn off the lights for 24 hours. This apparently speeds up the process for the girls to switch into flower. So far I am very happy with the trellis net and how it opens up the canopy. I also planted 5 zkittles autos by fast buds make sure to follow that grow and let's see if this breeder is worth the hype.

GrowsGanjaGuy These girls are doing great even the mutated one started to explode but had to move to flower room because of space issues in the veg. I'm considering lollipopping the 2 bigger girls but I just defoliated I will let them recover first before i even try that.

GrowsGanjaGuy Overall these girls have been doing their own thing. I did lollipop all the plants only leaving about 2 or 3 top nodes per branch. First time doing this type of training, so hopefully I didnt do too much too fast but they seem to be moving on just fine. Smell is coming on just fine very sweet cant wait.

GrowsGanjaGuy I wouldve loved to see the grow with no thrips and see how much of a difference it wouldve made.

GrowsGanjaGuy Flowering has kicked in full force. Trichomes have started to form and the smell gets stronger day by day. I'm sure everyone that grows can relate to the flowering stage being the most fun. Seeing the buds get bigger and more frosty is a great experience. Go ahead and give me some advice I can use some. Thanks for taking a look at my diary hope you enjoyed.

GrowsGanjaGuy The smell is great, very sweet. The buds get bigger and bigger which is what I like to see as the still should have about 3 or 4 more weeks. I will begin to use cha ching by FF. Hopefully this will make the scent even stronger than it is :)))). I fellow grower @Good_Bud is also running this strain and breeder go check out his grow as he seems to be doing better. 👍🏼

GrowsGanjaGuy Man am I frustrated... thrips have invaded my grow. Well 1 girl is really messed up (in pictures) and they have tried to spread to my other plants but I have controlled the situation but still worried they may not yield alot because of the stress later on in flower :(((((. I never dealt with bugs in my grows but I guess I will have to practice better preventative measures than I already do. Either way i hope they recover and fully mature in time.

GrowsGanjaGuy Alright so I have now chopped down all the girls. 1 was chopped down a few days before the others. I'm not so excited about the yields because these thrips really messed me up. They were looking great then all hell broke loose. I know I'm not a great grower and I have alot to grow but I'd say this will yield me about 3 ounces of good bud. I hope I can keep my Mexican Haze grow healthy because they are looking great.
