Day 0 - Starting germination in a paper towel on 26 Aug and ready for the jiffy pellet today 28 Aug. Will start day 1 once she’s pops her head through the soil. Went ahead and started this one because I don’t think the first one I’ve got going is going to make it. She’s growing a bit each day but don’t really see progress in actual vegetation and I don’t think she’ll make it. I’ll let her go a little longer but she might be on the decline. I used a self made soil for her with compost, peat moss, vermiculite and perlite and last two grows thrives in it but seems like my C4, Gelato and LSD-25 are liking it anymore. Will go back to foxfarm and see if that makes any difference.
Day .5 - She’s popped her head through the soil and once she’s fully opened up, I will call it day 1. Still in the humidity dome right now but will probably go to her 3 gallon pot tomorrow. Decided against using foxfarm soil and ordered a bag of Coast Of Maine’s Stonington Organic Super Soil. Read a ton of good reviews on it and like the idea of using just tap water and no nutes until around day 30 then they say to top with fish bone meal every 30 days until harvest. We’ll see how this grow and my second Gelato and LSD-25 do in the COM soil.
Day 1 - She has opened up and looking healthy so far. Just finished placing her into her 3 gallon fabric pot and using Coast Of Maine’s soil. This is supposed to be a super soil designed for cannabis apparently and all I should have to worry about is water. At around 30 days, I’ll have to top dress with fish bone meal. I’m curious to see how this girl does in this soil so fingers are crossed for a decent grow.
Day 2 - Nothing to update, just took her out for updated pictures and make sure she’s doing ok. Using a clear glass over top of her to keep the humidity up for her. So far, no issues with the COM soil and we’ll see how she does as she progresses.
Day 3 - So far so good. Just sprayed her and the soil lightly with some water. Just letting her do her thing right now.
Day 4 - Nothing new, she seems to really like the Coast of Maine soil and I like not having to pH the water or add nutes. Gave her just a little spray with a spray bottle and keeping a clear glass over top of her to keep the humidity up for now.
Day 5 - Just gave the girl another little light spray with the water bottle today and still keeping a clear glass over her for humidity. She’s looking pretty decent in the COM soil and I think she’s actually doing better than any other girl I’ve started before.
Day 6 - Nothing happening today, just another light spray of water and keeping the glass over her for higher humidity.
Day 7 - Ending week one and she looks great. A hell of a lot better than my current C4. Definitely think she’s liking the Coast of Maine soil and I’m liking it so far too. Gave the soil another light mist of soil and possibly next week I’ll start giving her more than a mist, depending on how she grows.
Day 8 - Starting week 2 and she’s looking really healthy and growing well. Gave her another light spritz if water today and took her out for a few updated pictures. All is well and she’s chugging along.
Day 10 - So far so good for 10 days in the Coast of Maine soil. She seems to really like it. She’s a bit droopy right now, accidentally gave her a little too much water so gonna give her some time to dry out.
Day 11 - Gave the girl a full drink today. She’s growing in living soil so wanted to make sure the entire pot was wet and so far the girl is loving it. I thought I may have overwatered yesterday but think she’s been under watered. After drenching the pot, she perked right up.
Day 12 - Looking nice and healthy so far and she really seems to like the soil. Was a little worried about watering to runoff last night but she took it well and all is good. Hoping she’ll start stretching a little more here soon so I can start some LST.
Day 13 - Didn’t do anything with the girl today. Everything seems to be growing great so far and she’s definitely an improvement over the current C4 that’s going. Might give her a bit of water today, it was pretty dry down to about an inch and a half so we’ll see where it’s at tomorrow.
Day 14 - It’s the end of week 2 and she’s quite a bit droopy today. I’m thinking it’s because she’s thirsty because the pot was pretty dry so gave her a good drink of water so hopefully that’ll help her. I’ll check her out tomorrow and hopefully she’s perked back up. If not, I’ll have to try and figure out what’s going on with her.
Day 16 - Into week 3 and she’s doing great so far and really seems to like the Coast of Maine soil, just so long as I keep it wet. Seems like it’s fairly easy to underwater this girl. Gave her a bit of water today and think I’ll make sure I give her some everyday, unless she tells me otherwise.
Day 17 - Looking pretty good but a little worried right now. I started LST and heard a snap when she was getting bent overs. I’m hoping it didn’t hurt her that bad, this is the first time I’ve snapped the main branch but it isn’t a clean break in half so I’ll see what’s going to happen to her over the next few days.
Day 18 - So far it seems she recovered just fine from the LST and it seems cracking her main stem did it bother her to much. Gonna give her a few days to recover and stretch a bit before continuing LST. Gave her a little bit of water today.
Day 19 - Seems like she recovered fully from the LST but not sure how she’s reacting to me breaking the stalk. Doesn’t look like there was much growth but she’s probably using her energy to heal herself and then hopefully back to real growth. Gave her a full feed of water today and she seemed to like it.
Day 20 - This girl stretched almost an inch overnight so decided to continue LST. She’s been responding nicely to it and seems to be ok since cracking the main stalk. Gonna let her dry up just a bit before watering some more but seems to droop quite a bit if the soil isn’t pretty wet, thinking it’s because of the soil. First time using a living soil and she’s definitely the greenest and healthiest that I’ve grown so far. Seen a couple pistils pop too so really wanna start getting her shaped with the LST.
Day 22 - Starting week 4 and so far so good in the Coast of Maine soil. She’s recovered nicely from the LST and will tie her down some more tomorrow after a little more stretching. No nutes with this grow and she’s doing great and probably one of the greenest and healthiest I’ve grown so far!
Day 23 - Started more LST today. She was stretched up to about 4 1/2 inches and she’s now tied down to about 3. Gave her a full drink of water today.
Day 24 - Looking good, she stretched back up to a little over 4” after being tied down so retied her down again to about 3”. She’s been responding well to all LST and continuing until some lower branches catch up then will start tying them down as well. Tucked a few leaves today as well.
Day 25 - She’s still going strong and after tying her down to about 3” last night, she stretched back up to 5. So I retied her in a slightly different direction and looking like some of the lower growth is starting to reach for the light. Going to keep working the LST until I get the shape I want out of her.
Day 26 - Did a little mite training with her today. She was a little over 4 1/2” tall and tied her down again and now at about 3 1/4” tall now. All her lower sites are open to the light so now she can fully start stretching. Will continue the LST for a bit longer. She looks like she’s starting to preflower a bit and throwing a couple new pistils out each day.
Day 27 - She’s doing great. Didn’t do anymore tying down if the main stem today, she hasn’t fully turned up to the lights yet but did tie out a second lower branch to get it to stretch out and up more and will continue doing that with all new branches when they’re ready.
Day 28 - It’s the end of week 4 and no major issues so far with her. She’s back up towards the light and will let her stretch a bit before tying her down again. Once she really starts flowering, I will top dress with fish bone meal like they suggest for the Coast of Maine soil. Gave her a watering today to a light runoff.
Day 29 - Starting week 5 and she’s starting to flower. Still going to work the LST as much as I can for as long as I can. Lower branches are starting to stretch and she’s looking pretty good so far.
Day 30 - Did some more LST with her today. She looks like she’s really starting to take shape now. Will continue with the LST as long as she’s still flexible. She’ll get some more water most likely on Monday.
Day 31 - She’s taken well to all the LST so far and will continue working with her for a bit. Hopefully can get a few more chutes out of her before she really starts flowering.
Day 32 - Did a little more tying down today to try and get everything as spread out as I can. She was 6 1/4” tall and now tied down to 4 3/4”. I’ve got Coast of Maine’s fish bone meal coming tomorrow so will give her water and top dress her with the bone meal.
Day 33 - Did a little more LST tonight, top dressed her with the Coast of Maine fish bone meal and watered it all in so she should be good on any sort of nutes needed until harvest, according to Coast of Maine.
Day 34 - Coming up to the end of week 5 and so far so good. Gave her the bone meal yesterday and will probably give her some more water on Friday. Still tying down some of the smaller branches but the main stem is getting a bit to stiff so I will let that one start stretching.
Day 35 - It’s the end of week 5 and things are going well with this girl. Not a very big plant but hopefully she really starts boosting up soon. Will give her some water either tomorrow or Saturday.
Day 36 - Starting week 6 and things are looking good with this girl. Going to give her another day to stretch and will tie done the side branches again and will give her some fresh water tomorrow as well.
Day 37 - Retied down a couple branches today and gave her about a gallon of water. She’s looking nice and healthy so far and really liking this Coast of Maine soil.
Day 38 - Took the girl out today and did a little leaf tucking to get the lights hitting the bud sites a bit more. She’s looking nice and healthy and looking forward to see her shine her purples.
Day 39 - Overall looking pretty good but noticing a few lower leaves are a bit lighter shade of green. Not sure if she has something going on or just not getting the light like everything else so did a little leaf tucking to put them towards the top and see what happens. If not, I’ll have to start diagnosing. Starting to show a little purple as well.
Day 40 - All looking good and she’s starting to bulk up pretty nicely for early flower. Did a little leaf tucking today to try and help a few lower sets of leaves to get more color.
Day 41 - Nothing much happening right now, just took her out to tuck a few leaves and make sure everything looks healthy. Will probably give her some water Friday or Saturday, depending on how she’s doing.
Day 42 - End of week 6 and she’s looking great. Tied another branch or two down to get some more light to the lower part of the plant. Still looks like she needs another day or two before giving her some more water.
Day 43 - The start of week 7 and she’s doing great and the purple is starting to show up pretty nicely now. She’s doing good since tying down some branches yesterday and will let her grow up as much as she wants now. Should be ready for some water tomorrow.
Day 44 - Really starting to push out some purple. Gave her some water today, soil was completely dry. Just watching her as she starts to stretch a bit and might give some bone meal once she hits day 60, depending on how she’s doing.
Day 45 - Not a whole lot happening right now, she’s looking good and starting to put on a lot a purple and loving it. Tucked a few leaves to keep her open.
Day 46 - Nothing interesting going on with the girl right now. She’s filling in nicely and the purples look amazing. Probably another day or two before giving her some fresh water.
Day 47 - Looking good and dropped the light to about 10” the other day and it really seems to be helping her bud up more. Pot is just about dried up so will be giving her some water tomorrow.
Day 48 - She’s doing well, noticed a few lower leaves are becoming very light in color but all the rest seem to be doing ok. Not sure if I need to add another batch of bone meal to the soil or if she just needed a good watering so she got watered to runoff tonight and I’ll keep an eye on her for the next few days. Other than that, her bud sites are really starting to purple up.
Day 49 - It’s the end of week 7 and getting a little worried about this girl and not sure what’s going on. Yesterday she looked great and all of a sudden today, all of her leaves have turned a really light shade of green. This soil is not supposed to need nutes but I’m thinking no nutes is good for veg but I need to add them for flowering so I went and gave her a feeding of the foxfarm trio with some cal-mag and I’ll give it a couple days to see if it helps. Buds are producing nicely but leaves look like they’re dying so hopefully the feed helps.
Day 50 - Starting week 8 today and she doesn’t look any worse thank yesterday with the lime green leaves so hopefully feeding her nutes hopefully helped her but we’ll see in the next couple days.
Day 51 - No significant lightning of the leaves today so I think I got her enough nutes in time so hopefully she’s got enough in the soil to now to push that bud development. She’s definitely a really dark purple and it looks pretty amazing in person, the pictures do no justice.
Day 52 - Looking really dark purple now and love the colors. She’s starting to put out a slight citrusy smell as well. Her leaves haven’t really lightened up anymore so I think she’s gonna be ok till the end.
Day 53 - She’s chugging along nicely and looking gorgeous. Tested the soil and still a bit damp so will wait a couple more days before giving her some water.
Day 54 - Things look great now with this girl. She’s starting to dry out and bit so will give her some fresh water and some cal-mag tomorrow. She’s really darkening up and looks gorgeous.
Day 55 - Gave her almost a full gallon of water tonight, she seemed pretty thirsty. I’ve been wanting to upgrade my lights and saw nothing but good reviews on the AGLEX 1200W COB LED and was a decent price so I ordered it today and should be here tomorrow. Really want to see if it helps keep the tent cooler than running 2 cheapo 1000W LED’s. I’m sure it can’t be any worse so can’t wait to get her hooked up tomorrow and see what she does for the rest of this grow.
Day 56 - It’s the end of week 8 and all is looking good. I got the new AGLEX COB LED hooked up so really looking forward to seeing if this light will help in the grow. She’s already looking good but hoping this light will push her over the edge. She doesn’t need any water or nutes today and will probably give her the next feeding of nutes sometime this weekend.
Day 57 - Starting week 9 and man she is looking good with the dark purples. Just took her out for some pictures and see if she needed a drink. Will probably give her a feeding on Sunday. Got the new AGLEX COB LED hooked up so we’ll see over the next few days how she likes it.
Day 58 - Nothing new happening with this girl today. So far so good with the new light. Soil is still sorta damp so plan in giving her some water tomorrow.
Day 59 - Still chugging along and still not ready for any water and I don’t want to over do it so will hold off another day before giving her some.
Day 60 - Still not ready for water, looks like tomorrow she should be ready and will give her a feeding of the foxfarm trio. Other than that, she’s chugging along and looking gorgeous.
Day 62 - Looking great still and gave her a feeding of the foxfarm trio today. I went ahead and defoliated quite a bit today so hopefully she can focus on some more bud development. I’m gonna start really checking the trichs here in the next couple days. She might be getting close to the end but not sure yet.
Day 63 - Ending week 9 today and almost all trichs are cloudy. Wanting to get about 30-40% amber before chopping plus she’s still got quite a few white pistils so I’ll wait until I stop see those popping up.
Day 64 - The start of week 10 and not much longer before chop. Looking like 2 weeks tops but I’m gonna keep an eye on the trichs and pistils and when they say she’s ready, she will get the chop.
Day 65 - Nothing much new today, she’s doing her thing and fattening up. Still thinking about 7-10 days till harvest so will run foxfarm sledgehammer through her next watering and nothing but water till the end.
Day 66 - Gave the girl a gallon of water and some sledgehammer today to try and push the nutes out. I’m thinking she’ll probably be getting chopped next weekend or a few days after that. Just want her to fatten up a bit more and get more amber in the trichs.
Day 67 - Nothing new today, just letting her suck all the nutes left in the soil and then suck her leaves dry. Hopefully it’s this weekend sometime but I’ll let her go until she’s ready.
Day 68 - Checking trichs daily and she’s not require ready yet. A couple amber in there with a few still clear and the rest milky. Once she dries, I will give her another gallon of water and sledgehammer and let her go until she’s done.
Day 69 - Coming to the end of week 10 and going to give her one more flush with the sledgehammer tomorrow and will just let her dry up until I decide to harvest. Really can be any day but will probably wait until the end of the weekend.
Day 70 - The end of week 10 and gave her a final flush with the sledgehammer tonight. Will let her ride it out without anymore water until it’s time to harvest. Trichs are all milky with a few amber so she’s getting close.
Day 71 - Starting week 11 and not much to say except I can’t wait to chop her. Just waiting until the trichs are right. Watered her with sledgehammer yesterday and waiting for her to dry out completely before chopping, I’m hoping it’ll be this weekend sometime.
Day 72 - She’s still not ready for a chop yet, opened up the tent and looks like a bunch of pistils showed up so just gonna continue to let her go and she’ll tell me when she’s ready.
Day 73 - Nothing new to update, just letting her go and she’s still not ready for a chop yet.
Day 74 - Still not ready for a chop yet, hoping sometime this week cause she’s smelling amazing and really wanna try her out. Still a few clear trichs in the and not many amber yet.
