As the name suggests this is an express experimental project with expiry date. 66 days from seeds!
We have chosen 6 strains from 2 different breeders, Fastbuds and Sweet seeds. In all of our selections breeders say they should take 8 to 9 weeks. Lets find out!
3x Fastberry , 3x Crystal meth, 2x Gorilla Glue, 2x Girl scout cookies.
4x Cream mandarin XL, 4x jack 47
*We used heat mat and Biobizz light mix for germination.
🌡️Second week starts with a bit of stress (minimum temp at night 17-18C°).
This should be no problem and hopefully we stay focus on our schedule.
🔜 Setting up our mammoth tent ( 2.4m x 1.2m x 2m) and our eighteen (11l) plastic pots.
The tent is now set. All plants are transplanted into 11L plastic pots with 75-25% biobizz light and heavy mix, bat guano and mycorrhiza. We added co2 boost ( Boost buddy bag) and carbon filter on the vent system.
We will try to provide more details regarding the ventilation system inside the tent within the next weeks.
⚠️ We keep pushing the plants with 24/24h light schedule + increase nuts gradually.
ℹ️ Crystal meths (3p) and fast berries (3p) are the tallests plants in the tent, we decide to experiment with the Crystals so we will make, #1 topping (tallest plant), #2 supercroping and #3 nothing.
ℹ️ Girls scout cookies (2p) are the only plants in the tent that haven't trichomes yet (bloom) 😪.
- 38 till 🔚 -
Week 5 temperature increased to 30c and RH reduced to 55%.
We decreased the distance of the light from 50cm to 35cm. We ve seen a big stretch this week.
We increased the dose of the base nutes and we applied topping and HST( super cropping) last week in 2 of the 3 crystal meth. In the rest of the plants we plan to only use defoliation.
Crystal meth and Fastberry appear to be the most mature in the tent even though they are different phenos.
Gorilla glue (2x the same pheno) with jack 47 (4x the same pheno) are following.
Cream mandarin XL (x4 same pheno) are the tallest plants and they just started to burst pistils.
Girl scout cookies are the least mature plants.
* 20/24 lights (4h/day rest) for 3 days.after that we continued with 24/24.
* Add some extra advanced formulations from this week.
⚠️ Stay tuned 👇
🗓️🔜 week 7 --> we'll make a review to the progress of the different strains inside the tent with photos and vids.
We took a closely look at our 18 plants, 18 days before the end (harvest) of the 66 days experiment...
* Extreme defoliation for maximum lighting.
* Low humidity (45-50%).
* 24/24 lights all the 7 weeks from seedlings.
🗓️ Days 50-56
- Ten days until harvest --> 66root project
- 2 GSC, are the only 2 plants that not gonna make it for sure but the structure is great.
- 4 Cream mand, Coming next. Big yielders but amateur, hoping to taste it.
- 4 Jack 47, looking and smelling unique. Dwarf structure all of them, average yield.
- 3 Crystal meth, looking mature already, the fastest strain in the tent (and after topping), good yield too.
- 3 fast berry, too sensitive to nitrogen, small yield but the smell is phenomenal.
- 2 Gorillas, different structure, looking on time, average yield, not something special until now.
- Super defol to all the plants.
- Starting flawless finish at the end of the week, until then we reduced nuts to 800 ppm from 1450.
So, day 65 of the 🔅Root66 auto project🔅 and this is the last update before harvest:
❎- GSC (2) are the only plants that didn't make it so we didn't defol --> 15-20 days late.
Strong plants, high ppm feeding --> no probs at all.[Same phenos].
☑️- Cream mandarine xl (4) more than a week (10 days) before maturity.
Besides that CMxl is a great yielder, tall plant with light brunches.
Average ppm needed.
✅- Jack 47 (4) 5 days before maturity but that's enough for these Jacks to pass the test.
Smell is unique (pineapple), no stress probs, really dwarf plants.[Same phenos].
✅- Gorilla Glue (2) pass the test and ready for harvest. Not what I really expected, average yield,growth etc.
✅- Fast berry (3) pass the 66 project.
We had 2 phenos (2 green and 1 purple), beautiful plants with great aromas.
Nitrogen issues, don't overfeed.
✅- Crystal Meth (3) pass the test from day 60🤯, 2 phenos. We experimented with these.
The green one (with a little purple inside) had a topping and is already mature one week before the end of the project, purple #1 just defol and purple #2 supercroping.
A really fast strain, good yield n hungry.
