Skywalker Auto Mephisto Pheno 1

PrairieFrostGrow ***** December 4 to 8, 2019 Using this week as germination week......auto grow.....Been very excited to grow any Mephisto genetics for some time.....there was a mix up and I thought it was going to be Gapey Walter but we are running Skywalker. December 4 into the glass of water and they cracked the first day. Not a huge crack though and not wanting to rush gave her another night in the cup and she went into paper towel more of Dec 6th. This girl was very slow.....her root was yellowish in colour rather than translucent white...very slow growing length so gave an extra day in paper towel. Went into coco at 10:00am on Saturday December 7th. Her root was an average thickness, whiteish in colour and roughly 1/2” long.....would have liked a little longer.

PrairieFrostGrow ********Week 1 - December 9 to 15, 2019 She has needed some help to get the shell off and expose her first leaves...... Updating.........

PrairieFrostGrow *******Week 2 - December 16 to 23, 2019 Updating........

PrairieFrostGrow ******Week 3 - Dec 24 to 30th She has been so slow to get going. She seems to have finally rooted in and will hopefully find a little more vigour before she starts to flip to flower. Dec 28/19 - She really had a good day today and was doing all the right things. - Nothing at all today. She was doing well drying out a bit from yesterday and enjoying the heat....brought it up to 83 degrees today to try it out. Zkittlez seemed okay but Green Poison not so much......Staying with 79 - 80 for now and see what the next days bring. - If it ain’t broke......just wish bigger:) Dec 29/19 - she is still looking good and standing up nicely......thinking I will let her go today and give her a watering tomorrow morning. She has not been given anything this week so far though. - she may be reacting a little negatively to the flower light intensity so turned down the HLG today and raised the UnitFarm to roughly 48” off the canopy. Dec 30/19 - She is taking the heat well. Over all she seems happy. - want to get LST going but side branches are not long enough yet. Suspect I will not be bending her top over. - She will grow more like a tree. Work on pulling out side branching when long enough.

PrairieFrostGrow *******Week 4 Veg - Dec 30/19 to Jan 6/20 She started preflower this week. Pistols coming out and top node growth is funny. This girl took off with side branch growth this week. She didn’t get a lot taller but finally seeing some longer side branches. Jan 3rd started LST on branches. Not able to do too much with them not being long and the fan leaves on the node above getting in the way. Twisted slightly and pulled over, followed the same pattern on both side to keep even. Not comfortable bending the top at all.......not enough time for her to recover and give three or four tops....she will have one main cola. She is a very pretty girl and she has nice structure. She has been pretty resilient with nutrients as well. Runoff water came back a little high on Jan 3 with 1250ppm and a high 6.3pH.....given what I have been giving her. Keep up the 5.8pH for now until she is roughly 6.0 in the soil and will let her pH slowly climb over the next week. Silica is a big additive this week. The girls always seem to take off more vertically after the introduction of Silica. So far this girl is no different and you can also start to feel the stiffening of the branches as she uptakes the nutrient. This will stay part of the routine for a couple of weeks now. Also will continue with Sensizym now for a while as well to keep the roots clean and some more beneficial enzymes in her. I have not worked with Terpinator before and since I am trying a new line from Green Planet I thought I would work with this as well. Anything that will help increase terpenes is worth a try once. They are suggesting a fair bit at 4ml/L all the way through. Will start off slower. I have been a fan of Bud Factor X and it has worked well for me in past grows. Expensive though and wanting to move away from AN more. Rezin is introduced this week as well. See if the acids will help pull some further flavor profiles. Relatively new product from Green Planet and tough to find some first hand experience so we will give her a run. Will also give LW8 a try for the sweeteners.....don't feel like fooling with molasses this run.

PrairieFrostGrow ******Week 5 Veg - Jan 6 to 12, 2020 This was a week of growth. She grew up and did very well with a couple of her side branches thickening up. She is a very healthy girl but she is not flipping. I wrestled with this weeks journal because I wanted to get it started to show her great growth but all along I was not sure if I call this week a flower week or not. In the end I waited and I am calling it a Veg week😥😥 She is not flipping......freaking wants to though by all signs.......I got a suspicion but I hope I am wrong......I don’t want to run two flower cycles! IPM spray with Lost Coast Plant Therapy.......recent thrips experience and staying with a preventative cycle💀👻 Some branches are stiffening since the introduction for silica but others are still very pliable. The main stem is still very “bendy” and perfect for LST right now. Too soft for entering flower given the silica. Why? She has handled the light intensity fine.....she has not been going to sleep early. She has handled the nutrients well given the amount being put in anticipating her switching and wanting the flower dosages. She is beautiful little girl at first glance but she has some oddities in her growth......keeping the grow interesting she is young Skywalker😎 👍 More detail: Jan 6/20 - Day 29 - 2L RO water pH 5.7. - Run-off: 1150ppm, 6.1pH in try from last. After feed 800ppm, 6.0pH - Pot light today. Wanted plain water but she is feeding Jan 7/20 - Day 30 = life was busy........nothing done today for watering. - Pot was the heaviest of the bunch......enough to wait. - She was more droopy today.......cold in the tent though....75 degrees????? Jan 8/20 - Day 31 - Feel she is hungry so fed in AM today. - AM: full feed except no CalMag - AM run-off 900ppm, 6.2pH - PM: full feed with CalMag. - PM run-off 430ppm, 6.1pH - No time tomorrow morning and pots were not heavy so decided to feed again in evening. - She is green and happy.......no bud sites though? Jan 9/20 - Day 32 - Life busy......noting done......heavy feed yesterday. Jan 10/20 - Day 33 - Water only. 1L pH to 6.0 = IPM tonight so keeping it light today. Hit her tomorrow with full feed. = She is looking AWESOME today. Up and happy and still no buds😨😕 - Spray with Plant Therapy from Lost Coast for bug prevention. Fortunately no signs of any issues.......and this will keep it that way😁👊 Jan 11/20 - Day 34 - 2L feed. Upped the base nutrients, Dual Fuel, today to 2ml/L. Wanted to break 1,000ppm and see what happens. - With Advanced Nutrients I am usually over 1100ppm at a similar stage. - Played with light intensity in the tent today by giving them all more. - Pulled 2 fan leaves today. - Limbs are growing funny. Soft and narrow and not typical symmetrical pattern of growth. Jan 12/20 - Day 35 - huge growth night....side branches bushed out and got taller!! - Supplemental focus on this feeding.......help root zone again. - Voodoo and Piranha for two weeks again at the start of flower and promote growth. Sensyzime to help clean up the roots for better uptake. - she is 13" tall and 18" wide now. - 4 large leaves removed and two smaller nodes. Pictures all added 😀.....fought the website for network connections tonight😡.........update the comments tomorrow now👌........cheers!👏

PrairieFrostGrow *********Week 6 (Flower week) - January 14 to 20, 2020 (Days 36 to 42 from germination) The week went by pretty quick and overall and started to show more positivity. She finally set her buds 👍 and has taken off with more growth😃.....stretching. Wrestled with the idea that she might be a photo rather than an auto, had that one before, and wanted to ensure she was not. Moved her into the veg tent and with the lower light intensity and temperature she seemed to relax and finally set her bud sites......she is an auto......so why the heck so long to flip? Genetic issue or normal growth pattern??? Again, happy to see the growth but she will not be a producer of quantity so hoping the quality will be there😯😕😯 Have done some further cleaning on the bottom and removed a couple of small growing nodes. The branches were tiny and I want to keep her focused on the thicker branches she already has. Introduced Massive this week for bud density. She has become tall and lanky over the last two weeks. Not at all the growth pattern I was expecting.......would have definitely bent her top over had I known she would go like this😩 Wondering if I should bend over SW2 or not now😕 Keeping wet and happy is a balance. She was good with 2L last week and by the end of the week now she wants close to 3L. I also bumped up the CalMag on one of the feedings a bit to help ensure she doesn’t show issues. Won’t be using CalMag much longer as we are getting later in flower. Not sure how much longer to feed......will go another full 2 weeks for sure. I suspect she will run a full 10 weeks, then if allowing a 2 week flush you only go through week 8. Really don’t know what she is going to do at this point😕😕 Going to be interesting if her sister follows everything in the same manner.......she is in a 1 gal pot...downsides from 3 gal........live and learn Baby!!!👏👍 Little more detail: Jan 14/20 - Day 36 - only given 1L of plain water, pH 6.1 - no nutrients. - thinking she maybe a photo period......if so then I need to back up her medium to and end of veg state and get ready to run her in 12/12 to flip her.......had happen with a Dinafem pack before. - that would suck.....another 7 weeks to go if she is. Jan 15/20 - Day 37 - 2L water - Dual Fuel & CalMag @ 0.5ml/L - 450ppm & pH to 5.7 - She is now 18" tall!!!!! A little odd compared to other diaries for this strain?? - Side branches firming up but the low ones are still soft. - Her Main stem is still soft as well.....more of what you expect in veg not flower......as a comparison. - Nodes growth is still odd, some nodes have four fan leaves for example? Jan 16/20 - Day 38 - 1L plain water only today. - She did not drink a lot yesterday. - SW1 & SW2 moved to veg tent under T5. - ThinkIng I will shock them a bit and see what happens. If a photo she should calm down and show signs of new growth.....too many hairs popping but grasping at straws here.....if she is an auto she should form buds in a couple of days??? - Set the temp in the tent to 82 degrees and humidity to 55%. - Moved light to 14” off top cola. Jan 17/20 - Day 39 - Nothing given today. No water.....dry out day. - She looked good this morning.....perky and happy - Leaves opened up and exposed buds........give her another day or so.......she is an auto......just really slow consistently through all stages. Jan 18/20 - Day 40 - 2L full feed plus 1L plain water added to reduce the ppm and not shock her.........740ppm and 6.1pH.......total watering 3L - nothing in PM.....pot still wet. - concerned about bud sites not getting enough light so moved her back into the flower tent in evening. - replaced CO2 in tent. - Very happy today and good growth with leave up. - 22” tall and 24” wide.. Jan 19/20 - Day 41 - 3L feeding again today. Full strength again but added Piranha and Voodoo Juice at 2ml/L as well.....975 ppm 5.9 pH. - full strength was 1275ppm so added plain water to bring down a bit. - runoff: 1130 ppm and 5.7 pH.....Start bringing up the pH now to 6.1. - Cut off two more low bud sites with tiny branches. - Tied her down more now to help make her wider. Reached up to a couple of the higher nodes I had left alone previously. - Seeing a Kush style long branches. She is now the tallest in the tent! Jan 20/20 - Day 42 - Awesome night after stripping. She is taller again and looks happy, more vibrant! - 2L plain water 6.2 pH in AM. - 2L plain water Sensyzime @ 2ml, LW8 & Rezin @ 1.5ml = 75 ppm 5.9 pH. In PM. - She seems happy. Filling out more on the side branching. - Bud sites are getting larger but still small overall........if like everything else with girl.......just give her time......patience😩😩😃👌 Have a great week fellow growers.......

PrairieFrostGrow ******** Week 7 - January 21 to 27/20 (Days 43 to 49 from seed popping) Well this girl has sure kept one guessing as to when the heck the outcome is going to be. She was slow getting going but she has kept a constant pace of growth and has been getting bigger and developing more every week👍 She set her buds in this week and has started focusing more on buds and seems to be less on growing stems😁 Her stems have strengthened more over the last couple of weeks and are getting pretty stiff......yes! Shouldn’t have to get out too many eye-poking bamboo stakes ahead. Bud diameter is good now and not as tiny. They are starting to grow up as well, swelling. Top cola is filling in as well. How much will she fill in....time will tell. Not sure just how big her root mass is but don’t expect its huge and bound, sides of pot give when some pressure applied down lower. Have noticed other pots with a good amount of roots are firm when squeeze the bottom. Missed some of the purpling of the stems and saw more of it at the end of the week. Will be giving her some Epsom Salt next week. Also, brown spotting on tops of leaves seem to be starting. Suspect the pH may have gotten out a bit or something locking out the P uptake???? Next week, just keep her happy and ensure the medium has the correct pH. Expect more bud swelling to come😶 Slow but steady.......... Little more detail: Jan 21/20 - Day 43 - looked hungry in the morning and then again in the afternoon. - AM feed - 1L with just Dual Fuel A and B at 1.5ml/L with a 725ppm and 5.85pH. - PM feed - 2L with Mass & Terp @ 3ml, Rhino & Rezin & LW8 & DF @ 1.5ml, CalMag @ 0.5ml = 1300ppm. added 1L water to drop to 1000ppm with a 5.9pH. - runoff water - 500ppm with 5.8pH. - leaves are dark but she is happy. She is eating:) Raise the pH though. Jan 22/20 - Day 44 - Feed in PM: 2L - Mass & Terp @ 3ml, Rezin & LW8 & DF @ 1.5ml, CalMag @ 0.5ml = 1300ppm with 5.9pH. - They are perky today….further down the plants as well. Standing up and happy. Liked the water yesterday. - SW1 is now the talest girl in the tent. The Kush is coming out with long narrow branches. - This was a heavy feed today. Everyone is perky and happy so lets push it a bit! Jan 23/20 - Day 45 - Light feeding today. Supplementals only. - 2L with Sensyzime @ 2ml, LW8 & Rezin @ 1.5ml = 80ppm 6.1pH - everyone happy so keep it light....got a good one in yesterday. - the double bud on her was noticed today!!! Little reward for screwing with me so far😛😝 Jan 24/20 - Day 46 - AM feeding: Massive @ 2ml, DF & LW8 & Rezin @ 1.5ml = 925ppm 6.2pH - everything happy in PM. She seems to have taken the heavier feed well. - There might be some tip burn forming but not obvious yet. Jan 25/20 - Day 47 - AM feeding. 2.5L 0f full strength as listed above = 1275ppm with 6.1pH. - added a little more water to bring the ppm down to 1,100......brought her down just a bit. - runoff water 530ppm with 5.6pH. - pH is a little low......got to bring her up some more. - cola swelling last night, taller for sure as well. - Looking nice actually. Will have to support her. - She is now 32” tall and 28” across. Jan 26/20 - Day 48 - She is happy this morning. Didn't see big growth overnight but everyone happy this AM. - AM Feed: Mass@ 5ml, Terp@ 4ml, Vitathrive&Rezin&LW8@ 2ml, Rhino&DF@ 1ml = 1150ppm with 6.1pH. - Didn’t go to sleep before lights out today.....first time so far. - Decided to downsize other Skywalker into 1 gal pot to compare against this 3 gal pot grow. - SW1 is showing signs of P burn!! Brown random spots, and some larger. On new growth right now at tops. Jan 27/20 - Day 49 - have had good luck so far with the other girls and a quick 2 gallon flush. All seemed to be pushed a bit from Wednesdays feeding. - SW1: 2L - Sensyzime @ 2ml, LW8 @ 1.5ml = 45ppm 6.0pH @ 11:00am - Runoff not tested - SW1 was supplemental feeding. She is showing brown spots on leaves. High Potassium?? Lots with supplementals maybe pushing this too high. - First time running Terpinator. Have used Bud Factor X in past. Well fellow growers.......that wraps up another week......damn they do go fast when you look back.....always seems long looking forward though!! Grow em big n fat🙏💪

PrairieFrostGrow ******** Week 8 - Jan 27 to Feb 2/20 (Days 50 - 56 from seed popping out) She has continued to swell this week and stacking her buds. The hairs have remained a nice bright white all week pointing up. Noticing some curling a bit of the hairs towards end of the week. They are white but there is a small red hair here and there now. Giving her a couple more days of feed no idea about flush. She has been slow going all along in her growth........at this stage I want that to continue......drag out her swelling/bud growing stage😋😋 On the down side.....I did see very small red hairs here and there.....unfortunately. Heavier leaf strip on Wednesday and have continued through out as rotating her in the tent under the light. Took off probably 25%. Took off a few more of those fan leaves down low that I when removing bud sites. She is long and lanky so don’t feel side lighting is much of an issue. She is dark in my opinion and hope she will continue to feed and work through all that nitrogen. I didn’t realize how many purple streaks she has on some stocks. She was also given a feeding this week with Epsom Salts. A lot of red on one of the the other plants so worked Magnesium Sulphate in that way. I think I could have gone harder on the CalMag earlier and/or introduced epsom salt earlier as well. Changed the light schedule this week. Moved her to 19 hours of light because she is not falling to sleep at lights out. I know that I could have the lights closer but given how Skywalker has grown I can’t lower them as much as I would like. Will try compensating with longer daylight period.😉 Worth a try! Have seen other Mephisto comments where they say run 24hrs......not my style though. Will keep up Liquid Weight and Rezin to the end and see how she is as a result. Not used these supplements before. Not sure if I will use AN Flawless Finish this run or not? Little more detail: Jan 27/20 - Day 50 - Feed: 2L - Sensyzime @ 2ml, Liquid Weight @ 1.5ml = 45ppm 6.0pH - plain water. She is showing brown spots on leaves. High Potassium?? Lots with supplimentals. Jan 28/20 - Day 51 - 2L: Rezin @ 2ml, CalMag & LW8 @ 1.5ml = 360ppm. Left a lower pH this feed. - Used heavier CalMag today as purple stems is increasing.....looking at using Epsom Salts. - striped some leaves today...heavier than normal.......think it was 5 😄 Jan 29/20 - Day 52 - full feed today as listed above. - 5L - 1125ppm with 6.2pH....low pH trying to raise it by lots of run off with 5L. - runoff: 950ppm with 5.6pH - There is a lot of branch on this girl.....continued the leaf strip though and took more today. - Evening - 2L plain water 6.4pH............figured if I am going to over water her I may as well try and raise the pH more. *******this should have been about 12 litres of water given the way I was going about it.......or let the pot dry out completely first. Jan 30/20 - Day 53 - 2L feed: Epsom Salt @ 1tsp/G, Rezin & LW8 @ 1.5ml, Dual Fuel A and B @ 1ml = 1000ppm 6.15pH - used Epsom Salt today. - They were very happy today in the morning. Swelling up. - They are not falling to sleep at night so moving to 19 hours light. First day. Jan 31/20 - Day 54 - Feed: 2L - Sensyzime @ 2ml/L - 30ppm 6.15pH - plain water feed today. Sensyzime to clean up the roots. - She keeps chugging along with growth and packing on some growth now. Looking awesome actually!! - She reacted well to Epsom Salts......or didn’t negatively react - Colas forming larger and longer. Feb 1/20 - Day 55 - dry out day. Nothing at all today. Pots felt heavy all day - She is very happy in evening. All leaves up on almost all buds....very nice! Filling in cola too! FROST on fan leafs......may have to press her fan leaves:) Feb 2/20 - Day 56 - pot nice and dry today. She was happy this morning and given a large feed. - 4L of full strength for the week. - run off 1080ppm and 5.85pH......Hmmmm, I like it:) - Pots were really light in AM. - See very little red hairs. Still mainly nice straight shinny white.....keep going girl.....no rush! Looking forward to bringing this girl to the end and watching her swell......fingers crossed😁 Hope your garden is making your smile fellow growers....cheers!

PrairieFrostGrow ******** Week 9 - Feb 3 to 9/20 (Days 57 - 63 from seed popping out) She has continued to swell this week and stacking her buds. The hairs are turning this week. Kind of a boring week in a way because she has been such an awesome girl to grow!! Have not spent anytime looking at Trich colour this week.....too early anyway. Trying to keep her environment correct so she is happy and those buds swell. Continue to reduce the temperature slightly during the day and night as well as lowering the humidity. She is a very pretty girl and has certainly impressed me now at weeks 7 to 9.......this is a learning grow though because I was not sure what to expect in weeks 3 to 5 but now understand the genetics better. Growing another girl in a 1 gal pot at the same time, just short of 2 weeks behind, and learning from that girl as well so we know the best way to run the last 4 seeds. Hint......I don’t feel 1 gal pot will be the winner and suspect a 3 gal might be the one for me and my style. What I have reflected on is that this girl has been very impressive to grow even though I have thrown curve balls at her. A little more attention to the LST ensuring a more even canopy and lighten the feedings, this girl can impress!😍 She didn’t like the light intensity in early weeks and preferred a lower pH. Given that she was slow growing at the start I was unsure of how far to push LST and obviously should have tied down her main cola but she was more resilient than I gave her credit for. On bigger branches I would clip off another one of the lower nodes than I did to give a little more energy to fill in the tops. Not sure this girls top cola will fill in as much as one would like but her side branches are making up for it and will definatley add to the weight.........take your time girl😀 Much debate this week over how long she will run in order to determine her last feed.🤪 She had her last feed three times😃 but it was finally Saturday Feb 8, Day 62 as the last day of feed. Plan it to just flush with water and Rezin & Liquid Weight to the end.....or early 70’s anyway if she will hold out that long🤞 She still has several nice white hairs but the red guys, drying, did happen a fair bit this week. She is ripening up. Almost picking up speed but hard to say.....my guessing so far has been off when trying to read this girl so “I am just along for the ride” hope she has a couple more weeks in her yet.😁 The long lanky grows often have you wishing they would have stayed just another 6” shorter.😀 Had to keep the lights higher in the tent to accommodate this girl and now tough to raise as high as I would like for Skywalker. It’s all good though as she is filling in along with the other girls👍She has pretty buds to look at but they are not swelling as much as I would like yet. Hope that comes soon and will continue to lower the temps. Environment is getting colder at night. Crystal production has been strong and very impressive! Changed the light schedule again this week. Moved her to 19.5 hours of light because she is still not falling to sleep at lights out. Given she has been very green and tips were burnt a fair bit, will likely use Flawless Finish to flush the medium. Little more detail: Feb 3/20 - Day 57 - Water feed today. Runoff in tray was 5.95pH from yesterday. - 3L plain water with Sensyzime @ 1.5ml/L. 100ppm and 6.4pH going in. - still trying to raise the medium slightly to over 6.0. Sensyzime to clean up the roots and eat the waste making more food. - Her red hairs are coming out pretty prominent now on some buds. Feb 4/20 - Day 58 - Full feed today. Pot still had some weight. - 3L off full feed with 1125ppm and 6.05pH - Runoff water in tray before feed: 800ppm and 6.1pH - Runoff water in tray after feed: 1000ppm 6.0and pH - Heavy leaf strip today. Almost anything with a stem was removed. Feb 5/20 - Day 59 - nothing today. - She is ripening more now. She is happy and her tips are up:) - Red hairs continue to come out towards the top of the girl. - Light cycle changed to 19.5hrs on and 4.5hrs off. Feb 6/20 - Day 60 - Verify medium today....close to flush - 3L feed of Sensyzime and Rezin @ 2ml/L and Liquid Weight @ 1.5ml/L. = 100ppm and 5.8pH - Runoff was 1050ppm and 6.05pH. Feb 7/20 - Day 61 - Nothing today, still heavy. - She appears to be swelling more on her buds. Feb 8/20 - Day 62 - ********Last Feed******** - Giving a bit of a flush with Sensyzime, Rezin, and Liquid weight @ 2ml. - 6L feed with 100ppm and 5.8pH going in. - Runoff - 600ppm and 6.15pH. Good numbers but wouldn’t mind the ppm around 1,000. - Evening giver her last full strength feed as listed for the week. - 2L feed going in was 5.7pH. Want to try and keep it around the 6.0pH mark as she seems happy slightly lower pH. - Medium got a good soak and good runoff amount - That will be it. Hope she goes 10 to 14 more days.... Feb 9/20 - Day 63 - Dry out day - raised the light a bit.....will use lower pH water in flush thinking 5.8. - She has some nice buds. She has fattened up and her buds are forming “tips” now. - Again....frosty frosty girl. Hope we can drag out harvest day until Feb 22 or 23rd.......🤞😁.....Thanks for the read and hope you have a smooth week!

PrairieFrostGrow ******** Week 10 - Feb 10 to 16/20 (Days 64 - 70 from seed popping out) It’s flush week so not much to update really. This week you anticipate the outcome with great hopes and also think about missed opportunities......no different here 😂 😂 😂 Last feed given last week. First good flush and finishing agent used this week. Gave her Flawless Finish in the morning and 8 hours later flushed her with 8L of RO water. Given she has been very green and tips were burnt a fair bit, I used Flawless Finish to flush the medium. The medium is pretty good with going into the week in mid 300’s ppm. She is taking the end well😀 Her stems are really pulling inward. Really wish I had a wider pot to have been able to pull out further from the centre.....widen her up more. She has started to show her purple colours this week as well. She is fading and looking more beautiful everyday! Will be pushing this girl and don’t anticipate chopping her down before next weekend.....day 75 to 77 idea.......see what the week brings. She has beautiful buds but they need more squishing and I want to ensure she can feed on herself as much as possible. I personally prefer the smoke from a plant flushed for two weeks, so that is the goal......only concern is what will happen to tricombs over the next four days or so???? She squished out bud very well over the weekend and has swelled quite a bit. She is getting fat and happy.......putting on the weight and frost this week girl!! Dropped the night temps to 60 degrees and the humidity to roughly 40% at night. Stripped more of her leaves and down to just bud, haha. Some are still left where I don’t want to remove the leaves for fear of bruising the bud trying to get it off. 😧 Mephisto.....I have seen in a number of the other diaries where the frost seems thick on the fan leaves and this strain is no different! There will be very few leaves that won’t make it into the trim bin from this girl👌😀 For me.....its not that I haven’t seen this frost level but rather, this an auto only 10 weeks from popping her head out of the soil!!!! Even at 8 and 9 weeks it catches your eye as if you see something as growing wrong or an issue.....then you look closer and go DAMN😂!!!!!! Senescence has set in and I have not seen that on many other Mephisto diaries for Skywalker and it is awesome!! Several more days to go for her to show her beauty....exciting😜 If she can keep swelling she will be a great producer!! Keep her cold and keep the density improving and she could be impressive.....for this breeders strain a good yield😀 Lets not put the cart before the horse here though and will focus on tricombs for now. Little more detail......to come Feb 10/20 - Day 64 - 2L with Flawless finish given in morning @ 2.0ml/L. 125ppm and 6.1pH - 8L water flush in evening broken into two parts: - 6L plain water, 5.4pH. Then 2L with LW8 & Rezin 100ppm 5.4pH - Runoff 285ppm 6.1pH - okay we are set now and like the numbers from the runoff. She should have lots in her leaves to keep her going.......lets flush Baby!!!👌 Feb 11/20 - Day 65 - nothing today. - more bud swelling noticed and she is squishing out😀 Feb 12/20 - Day 66 - 2L water with Liquid Weight and Rezin @ 2ml = 79ppm and 5.95pH - Lower bud sites swelling more visible as well. Feb 13/20 - Day 67 - 2L water with Liquid Weight and Rezin @ 2ml = 80ppm and 6.15pH - upper sites are firming up, lowers still have firming up to do yet. Feb 14/20 - Day 68 - Nothing today Feb 15/20 - Day 69 - 3L water with Liquid Weight and Rezin @ 2ml = 100ppm and 6.1pH - Buds are starting to appear more white now. Frost building and turning cloudy. - Leaves are lightening and she is eating the nutrients within her. Feb 16/20 - Day 70 - 3L water with Liquid Weight and Rezin @ 1.5ml = 90ppm and 6.0pH - Purple really starting to come out on her tops now. - lower temps further in the tent to promote bud density and ripening. Have a great week all and may your gardens be full of colour and shine!!🙏

PrairieFrostGrow ********* Week 11 - February 17 to 23, 2020 (**Days 71 to 77 from head coming out of medium**) Well another week has come and gone and she is still going💪😃 This was a week of not too much to report as well as it is basically just keeping her medium wet, light low, and let her ripen😃 We also started looking at trichomes closer this week🧐🧐 Her frost developed this week has turned to primarily all cloudy. Tops are starting to show more amber in the buds and the lowers still show a number of clear.......didn’t want to rush her and let her go at her own pace. She is going to be running close to 80 days and expect that to be harvest day. She came on frosty early on in her grow but the lowers still need some more time. Crazy how much frost is on her fan leaves and sugar leaves are just that. Great work Mesphisto💪👍 Removed any unnecessary LST tie downs. She remained in place for the most part and at the end of the week was starting to pull in on herself........doesn’t help lower sites but don’t want her to stress either. Another good point in support of removing more lower growth on the side branches. The tops will not fill in completely on the main colas but she will still have good weight at harvest with all the thick side branches she has👍😃 Discovered another problem with the darn pH pen this week and it was out by 5 full points. This also explains some of the unusual things I have seen and thoughts of her possibly being a little slow the prior week. It had been 4 weeks since last calibration so it wasn’t out that long but long enough. This girl weathered that curve ball pretty good💪🙏 She went into darkness on Sunday Feb 23th for 48 hours. Harvest day is around the corner😛 Goal of a two week flush is being achieved😃......should be smooth smoke!! Will see what using Green Planet’s Liquid Weight, sweeteners, all the way to the end will do as well. Hoping to assist with their flavours in the jar during cure. Also want to see what it does to throat hit and ash colour in the end as well🤞 Skywalker has grown tall and her nugs are firming up. She wont produce two or three ounces type of plant but expect the buds to be great smoke😊 She is a beautiful plant and in the first weeks I was not sure what day 70 would like for example but she is awesome😁 Don't panic in the first two weeks of growth if she seems slow.....stay the course and she is just growing at her own pace! Through germination is where I always find it the hardest to stay patient😀 The beautiful colours coming out in her and the squishing out she did this week has been special to watch! Next update should be harvest👍 More detail: Feb 17/20 - Day 71 - nothing for feed today. - Bud swelling last night and she is looking awesome. Feb 18/20 - Day 72 - 3L water with Rezin & Liquid Weight @ 2ml/L = 80ppm and 5.8pH. - Tough to read this girls density as the buds have not packed on size like crazy. - I have given in an squeezed the odd not-so-pretty bud for density😉 Feb 19/20 - Day 73 - 2L water with Rezin & LW8 = 80ppm and 6.1pH. - still waiting on further ripening of lower trichomes after reviewing more pictures. - lower growth is still a little soft so suspect it will stay that way......some dedicated to pressing😀 Feb 20/20 - Day 74 - 2L water with Rezin @2ml and LW8 @1.5ml = 80ppm and 5.9pH - still a number of clear.....keep going. Feb 21/20 - Day 75 - Nothing today. Dry out. - Not sure if she will go into darkness this weekend or not. Feb 22/20 - Day 76 - 2L water with Rezin and LW8 @ 1.5ml/L = 80ppm and 5.9pH. - review trichomes again today. - couple more days Feb 23/20 - Day 77 - 2L plain water given didn't pH just gave her moisture for the dark period......has been running 5.7 out of bottle. - Her top trichomes are changing and she is has purple leaves all the way down. - She looks beautiful from the top down....love purple in a tent with yellows!! - into darkness tonight for two days. Then harvest on day 79 or 80🤩 Thanks to all for your time and enjoy your week with the ladies in your life🙏😃

PrairieFrostGrow She went into dark on Sunday Feb 23rd, day 77, and was harvested on February 25th, day 79 from her coming out of the medium First run from Mesphisto and extremely happy with everything. It has not been without incident and she has had her fussiness. Overall this girl liked her nutrients on the lighter side.......liked her pH on the lower side........she doesn't want much light intensity for the first 4 weeks! She started off really slow in germination but then took off around weeks 3 to 6 and shot way up! She takes up a lot of room and will not yield four ounces of bud idea but she has grown into a beautiful tree looking girl. I was timid about bending her main stem because of slow growing early on but running her again, I would bend the main stem and train that as well. She is going to be a good producer for this strain and she makes you smile looking at her.......what more can you ask for😍 The colour change was not expected and was a great surprise. Love purple leaves! Still have 4 seeds of this girl to run again. It appears to me that on my pack of seeds the right grow for me is a 3 gal pot, keep her under T5 light for most of veg, give the whole girl LST, keep her tied down tight if she starts to take off in week 3 and 4, keep her pH in the 5.5 to 5.8 range for veg and early flower. Expecting smaller, hard, fire nuggets from her based on how she grew. Will follow up with more as she progresses through drying. In the box with temp at 62 to 66 degrees and humidity at 60%. Branches are not that long so I am expecting dry should be around 7 to 10 days. 😍
