No training yet. 3.5 litres of water every 3 days . First mistake and note to growers and self when using spray bottle to wet surface make sure not rip off any leaves as your pulling the trigger... on the do Sweet dos plant. oh well she will live.
Light - 18-6 par value 650 Co2 500 ppm. Water 3.5 l every 4 days .ph 6.3 water ppm 300 . Temp. 23 -21. RH%60 .
Topped and I left 4 nodes. Day 25 (3full weeks since sprout) going scrog at 10 inches s. Organic kryptonite living soil.
Day 38
Lights 18-6/ par value 650/ Co2 500 ppm/ temp 21-23/ RH%60. Water 5L per plant/ PH 6.5/ water ppm was 1150 with nutes.
Scrog was put in place at 34 days and defoliation. See in pictures . Happy with growth so far. Won’t be long until I switch to flower.
Master kush cookies kush and do sweet dos are the statins.
Any input would be great this is my first grow inside.
Day 45. Lights 18-6/ par value 700/ Temp is 23-29. RH is 60% / Co2 ppm 500/ PH 6.5/ technaflora nutrients /Organic kryptonite living soil.
6 full weeks today since leaves opened up. Last and final day of vegetation today. Cookies kush is the plant in the front left corner. Scrog and defoliation were applied 11 days ago.
Day 52. 7 days into flower. 3x3x6 tent. 1200watt led lights. Front left cookies kush
Lights 12-12/ RH 50-60%/ Temp 21-28/ PH 6.2/ water ppm 1000 techaflora nutes/ PAR value 850/ Organic soil/ 7 gal smartpots/ scrog 9 inches/ Topped/ defoliated twice one more to go/ stretch 4 inches in 7 days/ plants 18 inches tall.
Also included some pictures that make my life easier in that small space
Day 59 - Day 14 of flower - cookies kush First indoor grow. This guy is a MONSTER
Lights 12-12/ PAR 900/ Day temp 23-27/ Night temp 19-22/ RH45%/ Co2 500ppm/ water Ph 6.5/ water ppm 1400 with technaflora nutes/ organic soil/ 7 gal pots/ 4-5l per 3 days for watering.
Week 2 is done. The scrog was cut out this week because I have to level out my pots this to give myself a very even canopy across my plants, i also will be defoliating heavy this week to expose all the bud sites.
Day 21/ cookies 🍪 kush / first grow
Lights 12/12/ par 950/ technaflora nutes/ ppm 1400 / Ph 6.5 / organic soil/ RH 50 %/ temp 23-27 night 18-22/ 7 gal pots
Plant is back left . Power went out for a day so I kept light cycle going with flashlights lol . I like how frosty they look already. Defoliation was done on day 18 . There has been no stretch since. Plants 23 inches tall. Looks like I’ll have 4-5 good tops per plant. Also included a video of my setup!
Day 30 of flower. Cookies kush strain . Plants in back left. Roughly 30 days left to go in flower. This girl is So PRETTY I can see why is won awards.
Lights 1212 par value roughly 1000. I keep lowering my light no signs of light burn yet at 19 inches. Day temp 21-26 night 17-21. Rh% is set to 45-55%. Watering every third day. 4L per plant . No runoff. Every third water I give technaflora nutrients at 1400ppm. Water ph 6.2
Ive learned my plants love a water ph around 6.2. Even slightly altering this to 6.7 you can tell they don’t grow as much. Very excited for the next few weeks as you just sit back and watch them fatten up.
See y’all next week.
Flushing techniques with organic soil. I hate chemical tasting weed. I have organic soil in 7 gallon pots. It takes 4.2 litres to have very little run off at the bottom. 3.5 weeks left of flower. What’s your best method to flush plants in the final weeks ?
Instead of 1 week of heavy flushing, you can just water with plain water for 2 weeks, that will give the plant enough time to consume whatever is left on the soil and its own stores of nutes. Less of a mess.
Day 79. Day 36 flower. Cookies kush strain. First grow
Lights 12:12. Par 1000. Day temp 23-27 night 18-22. RH 45%-55%. Water 1400 ppm with technaflora nutrients. PH 6.4. Co2 500ppm. Organic living soil in 7 gal fabric pots.
Going to drop RH to 35% at the end of this week and temp a couple degrees. Give them there last nute feeding to give them good time to flush over then next 2-3 weeks and let that organic dirt take back over the smell and taste. This girl is some pretty I don’t think it’s going to be as high as yield as the other two strains. I’ve included my nutrient amounts in this week also take a look!
See you guys next week
Day 85. Day 42 flower. End of week 6 .cookies kush. First grow.
Lights 12/12. Par value roughly 750 for final two weeks. Rh% dropped to 40% . Temps 21-23 daytime. 17-19 nighttime. Technaflora nutes, i included amount above. Organic living soil. 7 gal smart pots. Co2 500ppm. Watering 4L every 3 days ph 6.3. 1400 ppm water with nutes. Water water feed schedule.
Gave them there last full dose of nutrients on day 42. Dropped humidity and temp a tiny bit. Moved the lights to slightly less power. I can’t see these girls going past day 56.
Also included some mediocre pictures of trichomes for you guys. Mine are still 50/50 milky/clear. I want them to have a few amber trichomes before I harvest.
I will post week 13-14 and then a harvest week so it looks like this grows coming to end ! Hope you’ve enjoyed it so far and learned some things. I know I did on my first grow.
Day 93. Day 50 of flower. Cookies kush strain. First grow.
Lights 12/12 Par value roughly 750. Temp ranges from 17-26 day&night. Humidity 40%. Kryptonite soil in 7 gal fabric pots. Last nutes were fed on day 42 at 1400 ppm. Giving them 6L of water every 3 days for the rest of the grow. PH is 6.2 and the PPM of the water is 130.
No signs of yellowing so I think I will continue this feeding method until the end as it seems there’s still plenty for them to eat in my mediums.
My trichomes are still 50/50 milky clear going into 52 of flower. Just keeping a close eye now. Definitely packing on some good final weight.
Super pretty plant in my opinion.
see y’all next week 😎
Day 96 . Day 55 of flower. Cookies kush strain . Last day on earth for this fella .
Today is chop day. Last dose of nutrients on day 42 so 13 days Of just regular water until today, day 55. Trichomes were actually 10% Amber which is perfect. Didn’t make any drastic changes in temp or humidity in the final week It stayed at 40% Rh and temp 21.
Very excited to see how these buds look , smell and taste.
see y’all soon for one final harvest week post.
Very pretty strain. Smells like the classic GSC smell. Yield was good. This stuff is the perfect mix of both worlds of head high and couch high. Gives ya the munchies and giggles. Very smooth smoking. Compact bud structure. Curing for about two weeks now and it’s all I could have asked for in my first grow.
I just dried these in my tent flipped the scrog upside down and dried for 1 week at 55%rh and 20degrees then trimmed nicely and burped jars until it had a RH of 62%
Overall first grow-
First of all I’d like to mention some issues with the grow but I combated very well. If the power gos out get flashlights to keep the light cycle going. Get watering spraying pump it’s easier to water picture week 7. Put your pots on elevation 4 to 5 3/4inch wood pieces so you can adjust the height of pot in your tent to get better canopy overall if training doesn’t go as planned. Get a big dehumidifier. Keep Ph consistent. And keep it simple y’all . Good lights
,good dirt, good strain,good nutrients and water consistent with correct ppm and pH and keep humidity low for mould and and you’ll have some good shit. Hope this diary helps some of y’all.
Till next time.
Nice looking girls! I noticed you wrote organic living soil, however your using salt based nutrients. You can’t have both, so your grow would be a soil grow with synthetic nutrients. cheers.
@SirDillton, I see! Yeah, it’s because organic living soil relies on microbes to break down nutrients in the soil and deliver them to the roots. Microbes form multple functions including protecting the plant from diseases and pests. When you use synthetics the microbe colonies change or dies as they’re not needed the same way.
Thanks man! And good to know about the soil! it’s just what the company had on the bag, is organic living soil so that’s what I called it. It’s called kryptonite dirt to be exact. So when you add synthetic nutrients it isn’t classified as living soil anymore? @OrganicChronic,
Instead of 1 week of heavy flushing, you can just water with plain water for 2 weeks, that will give the plant enough time to consume whatever is left on the soil and its own stores of nutes. Less of a mess.
Good to know man I’ve been reading about it and I see people have good success with just watering normally for final two weeks with no flush at all as long as your soil is full of nutrients and it’s just plain water they seem too plump up better and taste fine. From what I’ve been reading anyways... I guess will see in a couple weeks .. still quite undecided how I’m going to go about it lol @@Athos,
Hi @SirDillton! One way to go is to let the medium dry, then fully flush the container under the shower until the runoff looks clear, then help the medium to dry faster with fans/airflow. This is a bit radical but then you don't need to do anything, your plant will have enough water until the chop and you will be able to wait for the trichomes to mature. If you use organic soil and do not like chemical taste in buds, why don't you consider using organic fertilizer? Hope this will help, let me know in the comments section if you need any further information. Happy growing! 👊
It’s a full indica strain that’s 13 inches tall before the flip. With scrog at 9 inches . From what I’ve gathered If it stretched two feet it would be unheard of for this strain . Rarely does it ever double it’s size when flipped. I might need to move it up 6 inches ... I’m only expecting them to stretch 10-14 inches . /@Fruitgrower,
WATERING w/ organic soil and liquid nutrients. QUESTION - when watering with plain water I leave very little runoff to keep organic properties inside but when I use liquid nutes should I water with 30% runoff or keep everything inside the pot like I do when using plain water?
