Welcome to this weeks addition of DSD, week 2 of Bloom. The deets: The Good: -DSD has had a very good week and is growing out and up very well. Pistil and internode development is picking up speed and it looks like a different girl every day. Stretch is slower then all other girls and she is the smallest (still and probably always will be) but she is pushing roughly .5 inches a day of new growth daily with new internode points slowing down to about 1 every 2-3 days. -Dark green hue of foliage has cleared up and looks much heathier then the previous week where I realized I had been feeding the wrong schedule from reading the WRONG notes... The Bad: -No bad with her either. Very happy with the little girl and she takes her punches very well (punches = my mistakes). She's been very forgiving thus far and I really appreciate her versatility. The 'Meh': -Rh issue is still being worked on but has gotten better. My new routine and RH creation methods have done well and the weather is finally settling down from -35 to -5/-10 degrees Celsius. Able to maintain a solid 40-45%, now. -She's a runt and fights for light so she has been propped up even further to match NL #1's canopy height, as they are under the same lamp (SF-2000) @ 24 inches above canopy height. Notes of the Week: -Changed lighting to mitigate light/heat stress as the girls are stretching further and further. They're slowing but I needed to make these changes to feel comfortable with what I'm seeing. Blurple, 245Watt is back in action and will be on for the remainder of the grow. SF-2000 has been moved further to the front of the tent, over top of the two smallest girls (NL#1 and DSD). The blurple has been placed further in the back with the tallest girls (NL #2 and BC). Blurple is less intense and I'm able to get it closer to the canopy without burns or stress, so she's going to take care of the big girls. I now have a solid flowering footprint and all girls should be seeing relatively the same amount of light/light intensity. -Back to operating ceramic heater at night and not in the day. Blurples on and will give me that heat, so heater is only for night time, and even then it will be decommissioned soon because I would like slightly lower night temperatures... -Cleaned up my wires and cables. As an electrician I was not happy with my sloppy cable management and fixed it up. Aesthetic only, but it drives me nuts when things aren't square. -Weather has sorted itself out, finally. Had a literal 25-20 degree Celcius swing in 2 days, from -35 to -5/-10. Girls are much happier. RH is in order and everything seems to be coming up millhouse. -I did the smallest! amount of defo on DSD, since she's so bushy. Only took 4 fans total. I don't really like to defo and I'd prefer to keep all my sugar makers, but these had to go. The method I use instead of defo is to massage your fan leaf stem b/t your forefinger and thumb until it's malleable. I can then direct it in the position I'd like without having to cut er'. The fan will migrate back to it's original position within 24-48 hours but I have the time and am able to do it everyday or so. This way, I keep my sugar maker, I'm keeping her from any stress and I still get the same canopy penetration results I'm looking for. My rule of thumb is this: If you don't need to take it, 100% , just don't. Best to keep what I got and only take what I really need.

Need advice as soon as possible. Please see last few pictures of DoSiDos week 3. Am I looking at mottling here? Soil ph maladjusted? Please help if you've seen this before, and what steps do it take moving forward (or am I paranoid, IDK). Thank you!

@Ga4rd2en0er, You and I and others seem to agree๐Ÿ‘. Some stunning LST and form in the grows I see on here. I like when it goes beyond product, alone. The plant is beautiful and it's fun to help bring that out. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ‘

@JinksyGrows, I guess I'm a design nerd, I love designing new systems to grow in and when a design fails or is performing poorly, I love the challenges of fine tuning or redesign. 2nd favorite is flowering time watching the ladies mature and develop their wonderful aroma. My least favorite is harvest day. My hands cramp easily from trimming ๐Ÿ˜Š, the disinfecting and clean up.

JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@OutForReal, Haha, to each their own. I do love the colors and form come end game๐Ÿ˜Š. But the time I get to spend with them on veg is almost meditative for me and it's a super peaceful time. Thanks for dropping by Spinner and for all the love on the grows! Greatly appreciated. Cheers my friend! Happy grows

Fancy Names for those Seeds. I hope they fullfill what they promise happy growing
JinksyGrows
JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@OutForReal, So, long story short I picked DSD for its name, lol! How can I pass by a strain called do-si-dos, what a cool name! So, I came on here and found 2 DSD grows using the same genetics from seed bank (i49). I didn't trust the breeders projected 29% and asked them to verify if they tested (an indie Dom that high, can it be?). Anyways, it be, hahaha. One user pulled a beauty harvest at 31%!!! Holy crap!... So I bought a set. Until now, I had no idea this was becoming a popular strain, haha. I just liked the name and the terpene profile matches my preferences.But cool! I guess this will be my take on the strain and see how it goes. I'll edit in the link if the DSD grow I mentioned. Using his flowering period as reference for this grow (same seed bank after all) Thanks spinner! Hope this DSD is comparible to others trying her out! Cheers Edit: @DD_420 has a completed DSD and a brand new DSD at end week 5. Check it out! Beautiful plant.

@Mrs_Larimar, Yeah the Do is dos is trying to be the 2019/2020 fancy strain selection, every breeder tey to have their own version of it ... and I don't even know why it has been so famous ๐Ÿค— must be a killer strain

Jinks said; The 'Meh': -Fungal gnat problem exists, still, but is completely under control for now. I say: those fungus gnats are a pain in the ass. And they come back in " waves" I have them in nearly every grow, especially using airpots ( they can crawl in th holes) iam continously " fighting " them in every stage. But its a good sign for living soil with agood microbacterial life... ( this is what i tell to myself not to freak out )

JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@Mrs_Larimar, Glad I'm not the only one! And I'm with you on this. I was worried at first but now I just understand its apart of this specific grow. Their under control and I'm not going to panick over it. Girls are all very happy and I'm not letting the pests establish themselves. Thank you for sharing this. That I'm not the only one seeing them. I thought it was a newbie mistake but it seems they are relatively normal to have, AS LONG as they don't get out of hand

funny I also wanted to extend drying time to 7-10 days and ended up in 5 ... No fans, just low extraction, 18*C, 50% RH ... it would be nice to compare longer drying times. We will get there! keep up that energy into your next grow ๐Ÿ‘

HazeyBobbycommented5 years ago
@JinksyGrows, I'm in the same boat... always used 3% H2O2 and now on my last bottle and don't like my chances of getting another :) By the way, I'm thinking of doing a vertical ScrOG experiment in my next crop. I'm sure we'll stay in touch and up to date.
JinksyGrows
JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, I have been using 3% H202, but with recent developments (this whole pandemic thing) I'm a little hesitant about using it for the tent and will probably be going with bleach instead...unfortunately. I'm positive there are other methods to sanitize, but these are the only two chemical products I have at hand, ATM. Afterwards I do a sanitation and clean off all chemical residue too. Just in case! I hate the lingering smells they leave and I'm positive the plants do pick some of that up through the moisture in the air.
HazeyBobby

@JinksyGrows, what do you use to sterilise the tent? I'm using 20L airpots and one has an infestation of springtales - I will need to do something about that :)

@DD_420, No worries man. I have a pretty good idea what the Veg of the plant should look like, but your flowering pictures are more what I'm after (which are all there). If you're interested and want to send me some photos of Veg without making a new diary, my email is posted in personal info. Again, you dont have to! Haha. But if you want, by all means, I'd love to see you Veg photos and LST. P.S. Yah! I germinated Nov 10th and they popped nov 12th. Our schedules seem to be lined right up.

@JinksyGrows, apologize for the missing weeks to start my first do si dos. She was originally used to cut babies from for a couple co workers outdoor this year while I low stress trained her to form a thicker canopy once she flowered. Iโ€™d show you a picture of the 2nd gen mother and her 2 current 3rd gen babies but I canโ€™t figure out how to show you other than starting a new journal. The two 3rd generation Babies I have currently were transplanted from pucks to pots on Remembrance Day making them within days of yours I believe

JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@DD_420, Yo! My Do-Si-Dos bro!! I followed through and here she is, above ground! Thanks for the kind words brother. If I can get the girl to look half as good as yours, we're in business. Coincidentally, I was running through the journal several days ago๐Ÿ˜„ making sure I'm on par with your growth rate. Theres no week 1 though 7 but I still feel like I'm behind. Will kick it up a notch.

Sweeeeeeet Flower Time!!!!!! Just wait till you see how many trichomes DSD is going to pack on! I have my 2 dsd next to some Hindu Kush right now and they look pretty much the same for triโ€™s. However the Hindu Kush are too be coming down 2 weeks befor the dsd. Get ready for the white out thatโ€™s coming your way, hehe
JinksyGrows
JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@DD_420, oh buddy, I can't wait to see the DSD blow up and be snowcap white. She's the smallest plant out of the four, but I don't think she will disappointe. And if the Hindu Kush is coming down two weeks prior and they look the same, you're probably in for even more frosty goodness with DSD๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜€. Bring on the white out๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‰. Cheers brother

JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, As long as we walk in knowing what we need/want, AN is a great company. I have been upsold on a couple supplements that I really didn't need, though. Not AN's fault, though. Looks like I'll be going for one of three lines. Future harvest, AN or Emerald Harvest. Give me two weeks and I might actually have made up my mind...lol! I'm fickle.
HazeyBobby
HazeyBobbycommented5 years ago
@JinksyGrows, agree - that list of products that goes on turned me off initially. And I do see some diaries here that include so many additives from AN - not my kind of approach to growing :)
JinksyGrows
JinksyGrowscommented5 years ago
@HazeyBobby, Great info. Wierd they don't taper down the nitrogen for late flower... Definitely see that causing some issues. And I actually have looked into advanced nutrients quite a bit. It's very solid product. Not a huge fan that they have 51! products, but if I pick the right supplements, advanced nutrients is definitely at the top of the short list. Never heard anything bad about it or them... Looks good๐Ÿ‘
