Week 1 of flower on my Underground Originals #1 cuts in my converted wardrobe which is still a work in progress but the conditions are dialed in.
Both are in 19L Oxy-Pots and being fed Shogun Fertilisers which are working out great thus far.
They have been lightly pruned at the bottom 3rd and grown into a screen which is pretty much filled coming to the end of week 1.
I will completely remove every bit of growth below the canopy barring some leaves sometime between mid and end of week 2.
Just need a little more stretch out of these girls in week 2 which starts tomorrow then I'll fully trim underneath and they can concentrate on stacking up some juicy nugs.
Week 3 day 4 of flower.
Cut out pretty much all the lower growth, probably still a bit at the back end but I'll leave that and throw any popcorn in with the trim for hash after harvest.
Everything is A ok.
Not a single deficiency Of any sort so far the nutes are very impressive.
Fed them today with a strong 2.3 ec feed and monitoring closely to make sure they can handle it, if they lap it up then I'll give them 2.5 for week 4 before starting to bring it back down again to 1.8 then gradually lower each week till I hit 1.5 around week 8 at which point hopefully I will be ready to start flushing.
Happy with everything so far, canopy could be a little neater but with my busy life it will suffice, the main thing is I've got plenty of bud sites in the canopy so that's good.
Keep you posted have a blessed week
Hey everyone!
Week 4 day 5 of flower today and everything is looking good to my eyes what do you all think?
I certainly didn't chop out enough from the canopy and it's a little crammed but I'll live with it, don't want to stress them again at this point and the air flow is managing to penetrate through so should be ok.
Absolutely stinks already, my favourite to grow blue cheese variety Ugorg #1 never fails to stink out it's space. Currently getting a strong berry smell with a slight hint of cheese and it's such a tease given that it's only coming into week 5.
Thanks for looking in everyone, happy growing!!!
Week 5 day 6
All is well
The tops are starting to bulk up now so I've added some Tokyo's to support them and also to pull them inro their own spaces and allow more light penetration to the branches which I foolishly failed to trim away in first couple weeks.
I've lowered the EC to 1.8 which they will be on throughout week 6 and 7
Bud formations are starting to tighten up and swell so should hopefully have some nice long colas.
The smell wow, it's pungent, the cheese is really kicking the blueberries arse at this point, the berry is still there though adding a nice sweetness so it's a perfect ratio for me right now.
Can't wait till new year when this is curing, my tastebuds already tingling.
Week 6 Day 7 Flower
Incredibly cheesy in here now.
Nugs are still filling out and by the looks of it may want to crack on for a week longer, I was going to flush for 10 days from the start of week 9 but I may do it from start of week 10, time will tell!
@shogun if I want to add a week onto your hydro feed chart should I add another week after week 7 with bloom A&B plus additives or should I add a week after week 8 on Dragon Force only?
Week 7 Day 6
Cocked up, didn't check in on them much this week life got in the way and therefore never topped up the tanks with fresh water to keep nutes diluted!
The plants happy with their fill of minerals just took the h2o and the EC went off the chart. (This is me summising without scientific backup, sure one of you smarter members will hopefully straighten me out)
They suffered some burn and I reckon I maybe shocked them back a week, a few crispy leaves and not massive gains this week but the nugs still slowly tightening up so still smiling.
I've been pushing the highest end of the recommended EC guide but that just means less margin for error if my theory above is correct they stop feeding when they are full so I'm going to start shooting in the middle between highest and lowest so I don't have to dilute as often.
Thanks for looking in fam!
Week 8 Day 5
Hello GD Fam 🖐️🏻
Plants are looking SWELL
They have packed on a lot of weight and some pistils are turning but there is still a lot of new white pistils.
Trichs are still pretty clear too.
Was going to use Dragon Force in week 9 and flush with plain water for week 10 but now I'm wondering whether to push an extra week through them, what do you think GD community?
How do you all predict when to prepare for flush?
I find it difficult, it's easy enough to spot a plant that's ready based on trichs and pistils etc but how do you predict it 2 weeks early to know when to start using your final additives followed by just water in the final week?
I know dragon force and similar products push the plant to do so but if I can get more weeks out of a plant then I shouldn't I do so for a benefit to yield?
Especially interested in @SHOGUN opinion if they have a little time spare 😁
As you can see in the pics peeps I've caught the spirit of Christmas and decorated my grow space for the competition Xmas Grow:showman:️
Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas 🎅
Hope you like the video I made I'm pretty happy with the results considering I've got zero experience of decorating and video photography/direction or any photography for that matter 😂
Week 9 Day 6 Flower
Buds are packing on weight and stinking more than ever.
I've got quite a lot off popcorn and medium sized buds as a result of not chopping enough away from below canopy earlier on but tbf even most of them are weighty.
I'm going to flush out the systems tomorrow and add fresh water only with the intention to chop them 7-10 days from now!
They smell very hashy right now with berry undertones, the cheese kinda murged with the hash smell, very pungent, can't wait to smell and taste the dried cured end product
Ugorg #1 grows very fast and has so many bud sites, add Shogun Geisha Collar spray into the mix and you have a bush on your hands. Pleasure to grow, perfect for topping and scrogging, just make sure you are ruthless with shaving the undergrowth off for the first 3-4 weeks of flower, I left too much on and got a lot of light bud which could of been added weight to the tops. Not overly fussed though I still got 10 and half oz from 2 plants in a 0.4 meter squared wardrobe under 400w, which by the way I calculate at 0.76gpw not 0.38 as @grow.diaries 6179
