1/28:
DId a little LST and rotated edge plants.
1/29:
DId a little photo session. As you can see, I appear to have two entirely different phenotypes of this strain. One looks like a typical hybrid in structure and leaf shape, whereas the other looks like it is almost purely sativa. Very cool.👌
I fed them about 3/4 gallon each. I backed off the veg nutes a bit and added Tiger Bloom and Open Sesame to the regimen. Tied down a few branches to further encourage lower branch growth.
1/30:
Raised my lights today about 4 inches.... I don't have enough space to train them outwards, and I am holding off supercropping them until I have no other options.
1/31:
My canopy is getting thick, so I started running the 180w tube light below the canopy today. It's on a timer, set to run a total of 10 hours per day, in 2-hour intervals.
2/1:
I pulled everybody out of the closet this morning and thoroughly sprayed down all the foliage with BoomBoom Spray, tops and bottoms of leaves. I let them dry slowly under low watt lights with no airflow. I raised the lights again another couple of inches. I have just a couple of vertical inches left before I'll have to either supercrop these girls or do some minor construction in the closet. I'm leaning towards modifying the closet to allow another foot of ceiling space for the girls.
@Silverback_Guerilla, so many phenos sometimes. i did an lsd25 and found it could be 1 of 9 possible phenos.lol never can guarantee we get a good one either. I had a hulkberry that was the crap pheno too. hated it the whole grow , dumped it i a tub once dry and was going to Hash it all. i smoked some and nearly fell over.lol some of the dankest bud ever.lol looks can be deceiving. good luck for a brilliant ending on them,
@Ganjagrandaddy, Thanks! It's a bit of a grab-bag with the #1's..as you can see from my diary I had one 2-footer and one 4-footer..makes for a very challenging situation. The shorter phenotype is pretty quick flowering. The taller pheno is very slow to flower, but she'll have some massive buds...eventually. My short one has had twisted and down-curled leaves since I started flowering, but it seems to be genetic. Delightfully dank aroma coming from her...
Some beautiful looking buds in there. Spectacular work. Keep doing whatever you have been doing and may the ganja garden gods bless you with good fortunes till the end.
@Silverback_Guerilla, the end is a true test of patience. Mind always starts looking to the next lady and it gets harder and harder. But in the end it's all worth it.
@GRow_M8s, Thanks man!
This whole grow is actually "fast-flowering" photoperiod varieties. I'm just getting away with 10 hours of darkness by exploiting the Emerson Effect with spectral triggers.
@Doktorholland, Yes. They are introducing "Fast Flowering Photoperiod" varieties soon, and the "FFT" diaries are by growers who are testing them for FastBuds.
@Fast_Buds, It ain't over yet...I have 4 healthy clones of this strain that are starting to flower now!
It is a truly delicious variety!
Thanks so much for the opportunity to grow them!
