Ok, so late Saturday I germinated my seeds today (Monday) taproots looked great, a little Mycorrhizal a misting of H20 and a few glass bowls to maintain good humidity! WE ARE ON OUR WAY! I will keep this updated and will not start the grow timer until I have them out of germination, move from seedlings to the vegetation process. I like to grow all organic – this grow I will be using up some product then switching over to a super coco soil I have been working on for my next 2 grows later this month, but for this grow here is what I am using and my Grow Plan; Grow Medium • 2 Bags Mother Earth Coco + Perlite Mix 50 Liter 1.75 cu ft • 1/2 bag (Left Over) Fox Farm FoxFarm Ocean Forest Potting Soil, 1.5 Cu ft • 5# Earth Worm Castings • 5 Cups of Earth Dust Base • 3 Cups Xtreme Gardening RTI RT4402 Mykos (Pure Mycorrhizal Inoculant) • 5 Cups Harvest Gold Organics Premium Soil Silica • 3 Cups Insect Frass Grow Plan - This will carry the plants for the first 30 to 45 days of Growth about Week 4 will top dress with Earth Dust Bloom Boost and should carry the plants through flower, I will be watering with De-chlorinated water and Seaweed Extract PH to 6.8 then using Recharge 1x per week, rotating in a compost tea as needed. The growing cycle for these plants are 75 days so at day 65 will just switch over to De-chlorinated water / PH to 6.8 SCROG – These plants are supposed to be beefy producing very large buds, will do some aggressive LST to produce additional colas and then doing a double SCROG for support with strong defoliation and airflow. Started geminating 5 seeds today / using paper towel method along with Pure Mycorrhizal Inoculant Day 6 Above Dirt - 2.5 inches tall - getting a bit top-heavy - plenty of air movement hope the stems catch up quickly! I will not progress this into week 2 until next Saturday / plants are about 2 weeks from true Veg.

With week 2 in the books, the plants are growing very nicely, still a bit top-heavy but the stems are catching up, I think in the future I may try and plant the seeds a little deeper. Plant care, misting with Declenated Water, Kelp Extract, keeping the soil moist with the same.

So as I finish p week 4 the plants are doing great, I cleaned them up a bit yesterday making sure the area underneath the plants are clean, will be top dressing on Saturday, removed much of the LST tie-downs and will let the lady's stretch a bit, and start thinking about an SCROG net maybe on Saturday as well.

Today 01.26.20 - Ok so this weekend's tasks are completed, SCROG is installed, the plants are just so long and spindly - I will be adding a second SCROG as soon as the plants start to stretch Today 01.26.20 - wondering what to do with the Runt Plant - will be removing the crates and replacing them with 3-inch plant risers and adding a SCROG when Amazon gets here - my concern is that the Runt will be in the way and just not sure what to do with it, I feel the 4 plants can fill the tent nicely. Today is 01.25.20 – Seedsman’s Zkittlez Autos are just kicking it! I spent about 2.5 hours with the girls this morning as they are starting to pop pistils so there are several things needed to be completed; • I will be installing a SCROG net tomorrow and did one last defoliating to ensure the stems are clean below the net, at this stage the plants will stretch and can double in size, so with that said made the choice on smaller colas that would not make it above the net, more training with the net ahead. • As the plants enter flower it was time to top-dress them with Earth Dust Bloom, I also added a small amount of Organically done Bloom Boost I watered this in with Recharge. • I always like to apply some sort of pest control as a preventive measure – I chose to use Optic’s Foliar Overgrow – they claim it will prevent WPM and with all the extra foliage this is when things can go south fast, and should be a big help along with a slight decrease in temperature and humidity. • The last thing I always do at this time is to add more soil to top off the plants – even with silica added to the soil mix I had the normal amount of settling. • I repositioned the plants to even them out before the net as well. • Adjusted the lights and increased the power to 75%

So work has been very busy - but plants look like they are doing well, last week we added the SCROG and top dressed, then just watering (De-chlorinated / PH 6.8) and 1 watering with Recharge. The tent is alive with flowers, tomorrow I am going to add a second SCROG net to help with the weight when these flowers become massive, also will clean out the plants a bit - and may try to create a compost tea. Remember last week I moved the little girl over to my grow cabinet she is doing well but weird phenomes produce such a short plant when her sisters are like triple her size. 02.06.20 - Today I defoliated the little girl - look at all the flowers I found, I topped dressed with Organically Done Bloom Boost with Recharge. 02.06.20 - This afternoon I defoliated and cleaned out all 4 of the girls, topped dressed with Organically Done Bloom Boost (De-chlorinated / PH 6.8) - along with a few doses of optics overgrow planned in the morning - I like to use optics overgrow for insect an inoculant and as a WPM prevention, the other amazing things this dose it just a bonus. 02.07.20 - Uploaded a few pics of the day after defoliation - all looks great! 02.07.20 - Just a few more pics from this evening - the plants are responding well to the cleanup - also pushed the light to 100% now just have to keep things watered and let the buds get fat and juicy!

02.08.20 - Starts week 7 according to Seedsman this is a 75-day seed to maturity grow right at 11 weeks, I think we are on track but feel it will push 12 weeks, the stems are loaded with flowers and I am confident they will fell in to produce some very large nugs - exciting to say the least! So tomorrow I pick up my items needed to start brewing compost tea - will shoot a quick video of the process / then will feed with compost tea on Monday / this should carry the plants through harvest. 02.09.20 - Started up my Compost Tea today - Recipe: 2 Cups Worm Castings (Used a Paint Strainer Bag), 1 Tablespoon Kelp Extract, 1 Tablespoon Fish Extract, 2 Table Spoons Molasses, brew for 24/36 hours. 02.10.20 - Today just watered the plants with my first compost tea, it looked amazing, had a beautiful white protein foam on the top - I will have a look at the plant's first thing in the morning and see if they are dancing! 02.11.20 - Just a quick update - plants continue to grow big great genetics! 02.12.20 - Keeping it simple, light watering - temps are good - buds are getting larger - all in all thinngs are looking great!

02.15.20 - Day 48 / autopilot just watering picking leaves and watching the buds just layer and get fat! 02.17.20 - Day 50 / trying to get the average temps down a bit in my grow room, shooting for about 75F average would like it a bit cooler - this page is GLITCHED, I have tried to adjust the temp records but they keep changing back - been 82F/68F 02.19.20 - Day 52 / This strain is supposed to be a 76 day from seed to harvest, with about 25 days left on that schedule I am thinking it will be at least that but I am thinking another week beyond that - I am not going to rush it, just let the buds fatten as long as they can - will try to harvest at a 60/40 amber to cloudy mix. The leaves are already getting dusted with sweet sugar, and the stems are very sticky the smell in the tent is pure candy! I have managed my temps down and getting an average of about 75F with dips down into the mid-'60s during lights out should help the buds produce terpenes and cannabinoids (increasing the final taste/smell/potency of the buds after harvest). 02.21.20 - Last day of week 8 lost a few days tween germination, so I am going to officially call this day 56 :) / plants are doing fine was hoping to see some lager swelling of the buds, plenty of fall colors in the tent with the fade-in full swing.

03.04.20 - Day 68 First round of Trichome shots - have to find a way to steady the scope but looking good! 03.03.20 - Temps solid, Buds are hard as Rocks! The Smell is crazy!! 03.02.20 - So only dechlorinated water / going to try and shave a few degrees off my temps, I am at Day 78F and Night 68F, this site has been bugged out for over a month and not getting anywhere with support so I cannot adjust my records above. I will add a picture of the Runt but forgot to take one today - she has a bit longer to go and will not start to flush her until Saturday. I need to find my USB Microscope so I can get deeper into the Trichomes crazy pictures coming soon! Trichomes are all very cloudy but super thick, about 2 weeks left. 03.06.20 - Day 70 plants are getting close to harvest - posting some cool Trichome Pics

03.11.20 - Day 75 / Just looking at the last of the Zkittlez this was the runt - looks like a bit longer 03.10.20 - Day 74 / Today because of my upcoming work schedule, I decided to harvest 4 of the 5 plants, Trichomes with 80% Cloudy with about 15% Ambers / I could never get this grow under control and push the growth of these ladies but all in all will have some decent bud out of it, working on shooting for about 65F to 60RH tent Fan speed at 30% for the first day or 2 then will reduce it, as the initial moisture starts to decrease. I feel good about 80 Grams per plant. I have a new tent and fan coming to replace this one, so I can start doing photoperiods. 03.08.20 - Day 72 / Today just water getting very close to harvest, couple more days. 03.07.20 - Day 71 / folks I forgot to post an update on the runt, I planted 5 plants, 4 of the ladies just grew so fast and tall and the other plant well just did not, and had to move it out of the tent to another growing area, well this sassy lady has done very well, staying short and squatty but producing cannabis perfect buds / I am sure this one small plant will yield a few ounces at harvest! Like her sisters I have been feeding her only water for a week, her trichomes are also shifting and I am sure she will be ready to harvest very soon, I am shooting for Tuesday.

03.22.20 - The runt is well underway with the Drying Temps and RH very good, should be able to trim and weigh Friday / got 9 ounces from the first 4 Girls, I knew the yield would below, with work and life I got behind of my reaction to the nutrients in balance, my soil had gotten to a PH of 7.6 - I urge you all to get a good soil PH checker, balance is key, I watered the plants with lower PH and they started to thrive again but the buds were ready to harvest. 03.19.20 - Day 76 - Last day for the Runt, the buds look good, will be removing the others from the dry room and placing this lady in her new home. 03.16.20 - Day 76 - The runt is so close to harvest - maybe Thursday - but she is looking great!

This grow started out very good, 4 of the 5 plants just blew up then so did my work schedule, this was my first attempt at pairing a Dry Amendment with Coco not what I expected, I needed to supplement with some dry fertilizer as late in the growing things just stalled. I am not a smoker but friends tell me that the pre-cured bud smokes great, sweet, with hints of fruity citrus, and that the high is intense, one of my friends said it made him “High as Dirt” lol he said that was very good, they all agreed and said this will be great gamer weed! I would like to try this again sometime and try a different soil and supplement regiment, but it will have to wait.

Great video on making the compost tea. Only thing I would change would be to let it brew for a bit longer than 24 hrs to ensure that the microbes have ample time to reproduce. Everything loos great with your setup and I hope that my zKittlez girls grow up nice and heavy like yours did. Keep on growing brother!
