HELLO, WELCOME TO MY FIRST GROW. I STARTED THESE 3 SEEDS IN A ZIP LOCK BAG AND TOWEL, THEY TOOK ABOUT 3 DAYS TO POP. ONCE THEY POPPED A PLANTED 2 IN 5 GALLON POTS, AND A SMALL POT. I WOULD SAY A 1/4 GALLON POT. I WANTED TO EXPERIMENT WITH THE SOLO CUPS, BUT LOOKING INTO IT SEEMED VERY CHALLENGING FOR MY FIRST GROW. SO I DECIDED TO DO A TAD BIGGER ON THE POT SIZE. IT DEFINITELY NEED MORE TLC THEN THE OTHER PLANTS DUE TO IT DRYING OUT SO FAST. I WOULD ONLY SPRAY WATER ON THE SOIL AND AROUND THE ROOT AREAS SO THAT THE SUBSTRATE DIDN'T SINK DEEP INTO THE SOIL. (LEARNED THAT FROM MY FIRST SEEDLING). AFTER ABOUT A FEW DAYS, THEY FINALLY ALL POPPED OUT THE DIRT. 😁 ONE THEY ALL POPPED OUT I WOULD CHECK TO MAKE SURE MY WATER HAD A PH OF 6.2, I KEPT THAT CONSISTENT THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE GROW PROCESS. I MADE SURE THAT ALL THE PLANTS HAD GOOD STEMS FROM THE START.

WEEK 2 OF THE GROWING, I DIDN'T WANT TO START NUTRIENTS YET, I FIGURED LETS SEE HOW FAST THEY GROW WITHOUT THE NUTRIENTS. LOOKING BACK AT IT I SHOULD'VE STARTED IT WITH THE FOX FARMS SCHEDULE. THEY DIDNT DO TOO BAD ON THE SECOND WEEK OF GROWING. THEY SEEMED TO SPROUT PRETTY QUICKLY WHEN I DID A 2 TIMES A WEEK WATER. TOOK MAYBE ABOUT 1 GALLON OF WATER SINCE I HAVE STARTED THE GROW. I STILL WAS DOING THE SPRAY BOTTLE FOR WATERING. THE NORTHERN LIGHTS I FELT HAD A WEIRD START BECAUSE THE LEAVES WOULD CURL FOR A FEW HOURS AND THEN OPEN UP. FIGURED IT WOULDNT MAKE IT FOR ANOTHER FEW WEEKS, BUT I DID AS MUCH AS I CAN TO KEEP IT ALIVE AND GROWING. MY LIGHT HAS BEEN THE SAME HEIGHT AROUND 24IN. KEEPING THE 18 HOUR LIGHT SCHEDULE BECAUSE THEY SEEMED TO LIKE THAT ALOT MORE THEN 20HRS

WEEK 3 DEFINITELY WAS A BIG SURPRISE. I FINALLY DID A FEEDING WITH 5/5/5. THEY SEEM TO BLOOM VERY WELL AND FAST THAT FIRST WEEK OF FEEDING. I DID THAT 2 TIMES A WEEK MAKING SURE I DIDNT OVER WATER WIT THE NUTRIENTS. THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY NUTE BURNS OR ANY CURLING. I DID NOTICE ON THE NYC DIESEL THAT THE LEAVES HAD SOME DEFOLIATION GOING ON. DIDNT KNOW IF THAT WAS NORMAL WITH THESE PLANTS BUT IT DIDNT SEEM VERY COMMON ON THIS STRAIN. I JUST MONITORED THE PLANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DIDNT GO ALBINO ON ME. FIGURED IT WAS A NUTE PROBLEM BUT OTHERS SAID THAT WOULDNT BE CAUSED BY THE NUTES. MY NORTHERN LIGHTS DEFINITELY SPROUT REALLY FAST AND SHOWED SIGNS OF HEALTHY GROWING. THE AK-47 STILL IN A SUPER SMALL POT, HONESTLY I WAS IMPRESSED ON HOW I MANAGED TO KEEP IT ALIVE SINCE IT A SMALL POT.

ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS WOW, 1 WEEK THESE PLANTS GREW AMAZINGLY FAST. THIS WAS 11 DAYS AFTER WEEK 3. I FINALLY MADE THE DECISION THAT THIS WILL BE MY LAST WEEK ON VEG BEFORE I SWITCH TO FLOWER, I WAS ON VACATION SO I DID A MASSIVE WATERING SO WHEN I CAME BACK I CAN DO MY NORMAL WATERING ROUTINE AND GET INTO TRACK! LITERALLY I DIDNT GET TO SEE THESE PLANTS FOR ABOUT 11 DAYS AND SEEING THEM GROW FROM 4-5IN TO 8-10IN WAS A BIG SHOCK! I DID GIVE THEM 5/5/10 SOLUTION TO SEE IF THEY LIKED IT AND THEY DID SEEM TO DO VERY WELL. I ALSO AS WELL DID CHANGE THE POT THE DAY I CAME BACK FROM VACATION. TO ABOUT A 1/2 GALLON POT! I FELT LIKE IT WAS TIME TO CHANGE BEFORE FLOWERING. IT DID DROOP FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS BUT BOUNCED BACK REALLY REALLY WELL!
