ALL ORGANIC! This time I chose to do “Blueberry Kush” from Growers Choice Seeds again because my first plant of this strain was honestly the best weed I have ever had. Awesome smell, and the high is calm and relaxing. The aroma was a perfect mix of both the Blueberry and OG Kush parents without one of the flavors suppressing the other. The high doesn’t cause too much couch lock or anxiety - even while still getting you very stoned. Let’s see how well and similar this next phenotype will do. Unfortunately, this strain isn’t listed on this site as an official strain yet, so I have to say “Custom Breeder & Strain”. When I did this strain the first time, the site’s user interface was different and I was able to input the correct breeder. I put two seeds in peat pods in a seed dome. They popped one day apart (3 & 4 day germination periods). Then I quickly transplanted them to 1gal pots to prevent the tap roots from getting too exposed. These small pots will be the demos for me to select the better of the two sprouts to keep for my journal. The first seedling is in the square pot, and the second is in the round one. I am going to be trying the KIS Organics Water Only Soil with Biochar again. On the last grow, with the “Holy Grail Kush” and “The Church”, I made the mistake of amending this soil with perlite. After it was too late, I learned from the producer that you don’t need to add drainage to this soil, and that a full cycle plant should have a minimum of about 7gal to make it through flower. So when I added perlite, it basically put the volume of my 5gal pots around 2.5gal of soil - a stupid mistake. My plants ran out of nutes in flower, and my yield was hurt substantially. This time there should be more than enough volume. I’m hoping to not have to use any nutes or amendments/supplements at all, besides a small dose of KIS Organics Nutrient Pack, and a tiny dose of CAMG+ calmag every watering. I will be trying a SCROG setup on this grow. I haven’t done this yet, and I am trying to figure out a good training technique that I can do without having to top the plant. This SCROG will be done with the tucking method. In fact, tucking is how you do a true SCROG; otherwise, you are just trellising (SCROG’ing is a specific form of trellising). Unfortunately, there are a lot of people that call their grow a SCROG when it really isn’t. I will also be thinking of changing my CO2 generation from fungus bags to something else. I just don’t get enough CO2 out of them to make much of a difference. Average light wattage first half of week 1: 142W Average light wattage second half of week 1: 238W Target VPD for the seedling cycle is 0.7kPa. Target VPD for the veg cycle will be 1.0kPa. Target VPD for the flower cycle will be 1.35kPa. VPD = Vapor Pressure Deficit, the temperature to relative humidity equation that affects plants’ water intake and respiration rates. GROW SETUP: GROWING MEDIUM: - KIS Organics: Water Only Soil with Biochar, the bottom half will be amended with a dash of KIS Organics: Nutrient Pack CONTAINER: - Vivosun Premium Fabric Pot 10gal (might not fill all the way) TENT: - Gorilla Grow Tent: Lite Line, 4’x4’ (actually only using 2'x4' space, because I'm sharing the tent with @Mothra) LIGHTING: - Kind LED: K5 XL1000 Every light cycle stage will be programmed with a sunrise and sunset mode where the light intensity starts low and increases, peaks, and then gradually dims before shut off. I use lower intensity programs for seedlings, and gradually increase the intensities through veg. I use a Kill-a-Watt monitor to measure the actual wattage draw, and will post the wattages of each cycle on this page. HUMIDIFIER (the tent usually runs dry): - Elechomes: UC5501 Ultrasonic Humidifier (has an automatic humidistat control) CO2: - 2x Exhale: The XL VENTILATION: - AC Infinity: Cloudline T6 (has an automatic sensor control I use to decrease temp and RH) MONITORING: - Pulse One Temp, RH, and VPD monitor with WiFi (I really like this. It really helps me to keep everything dialed in at all times. The graphing feature is a really great addition) - Hydrofarm: CO2 Monitor Also in the tent is @Mothra’s Doctor Seedsman CBD plant.

Grow Questions

MovingOnstarted grow question 4 years ago
I found out my double bud/wide stem mutation is called "fasciation". It can be caused by many factors. I've not found scientific evidence on whether this is bad to keep or not. Does anyone have scientific proof on whether this is safe to leave on? No opinions, just facts please.

The only negative to it is the bud is more work trimming. Nothing about it is going to harm you or the plant.

@Grey_Wolf and HighRoller909, this is actually not polyploidism. If you only have individual stalks that have this, it is called fasciation, and it is much more common than polyploidism. Poly affects the whole plant, not just individual branches. I'd post some articles on this, except I'm using my phone at the moment, and don't really want to copy/paste right now. My main concern is the trichome count and if it can affect or infect other parts of the plant or other plants entirely. It seems many professional growers prefer to remove fasciated branches or whole plants because sometimes fasciation is caused by bacterial, viral, or fungal infections. I'm just not sure how often this is the case though, because the main causes are genetics or hormonal imbalances caused by chemicals (such as fem or insecticide chemicals). Unfortunately, this seems to be a controversial subject with the professional growing community split on if this is okay to leave or not. Sorry, I would have clarified this in the grow question, but they limit the amount of characters you can put in the question. So I had to leave out the info about fasciation.

@TastyBudzz, Yes, I am aware of polyploidism and triploidism. In this thread I posted some articles on polyploidism, fasciation is unrelated. Fasciation is actually when the stem goes hollow. Also, poly and triploid plants are affected through the whole plant, not just one or two stems. These are the poly articles I shared before: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2019.00476/full https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyploidy https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6503105/

@MovingOn, I remember reading about polyploid cell division. I think it's possible to happen naturally. Cells splitting more than twice increases size. So I like triploid even if it's different from polyploid. Cell mutation is how new shapes and flavours are discovered. Imagine stabilizing polyploid or triploid behavior. Many have.

Dude I love your presentation.. I also love your train of thought, research and learn. This idea of mutilating and abusing plants is much too rampant in the community and it never really sat well with me. Yes your plants look bushy but they also look super healthy. Growers are people and they fall victim to the psychology behind "what I did must have made a difference" at least in my opinion. Very excited to see what's to come and I'm sure your one proud dad :). Gonna keep following along.

..... I also hope to see @GrowDiaries someday possibly make a "bio" description that we can fill out on our profiles to tell the community more about ourselves, daily lives, histories, and our methods and guidelines. It would be a great addition in our profiles for such a social community that likes to share ideas.

@@Darkwarsongs, it is a mess of notes right now, and I am also combining it with my personal growing guidelines. It isn't anything too special or large. I mainly want to share some rules I have set for myself and my thinking behind them. If I find the time, I will even try to post them in this journal once I get organized, but that is definitely not a guarantee, haha. 😅

@@Darkwarsongs, agree with both of you 100%... if people make changes to get better results they’re gonna see what they want to see... that’s why this diary keeping is so important, 4 months between cycles is a long time to remember small details 😊

Full disclosure, I still run a flush with my plants but like you said - there is little in the way of science based evidence to support the necessity. You can’t force feed a plant so the roots are only going to take in what they need. Through my own reading I’ve only discerned one half decent reason for it and that’s to advance the fade and minimize the amount of chlorophyll in the leaves. You might get a smoother smoke by doing so but again - questionable. Enjoyed the read bud and she’s look’n fantastic👍

@MovingOn, indeed! And with enough time, those points of view can and do change here and there. However there are certain topics (like those that are science based) which will remain constant... and fuck - I’m philosopherizing again... 😂😂😂
MovingOn
MovingOn
@TheBudWhisperer, so far for me, the organic route has led to little to no chlorophyll left in the leaves at harvest anyway. Which I suppose is a double edged sword in itself. Although, would we rather have leaves with chlorophyll, or leaves that are rotting with possible diseases or unwanted mold/mildew/fungi? I'm not an expert though, so there's that, haha. 😁 Us closet growers can be quite the philosophers about our methods, can't we? Thanks for the compliments! 👍

The "boring" part of flower is my favorite part.. I love seeing colors change and Aromas come through. And the plant's get soo pretty :)
Darkwarsongs

@MovingOn, lol your totally right. The small and subtle changes from day to day are not nearly as exciting. I think in general the whole process is rewarding. When your in veg and they're growing strong you can see that potential. And then in the flower when all your hard work starts to pay off. The flower can also be the most nerve wrecking, quite a few more factors that come into play in making a nice end product.

@@Darkwarsongs, ha, yes. Your opinion is probably the opinion of most people's, but I always enjoy the veg part because growth is visually faster and I enjoy the training. To me, waiting for the flowers to get bigger is like watching paint dry. 😴😀

@Master_weeda, no problem! I like it when people make it interesting. I think once I get more streamlined, like you, I would like to do things with my journals to make them more interesting as well. I should do more videos, and I wanted to do a time lapse on this one too, but the life timing didn't work out to start a new project like that. I also wanted to take my plant out to take pictures in the room light instead of under the tent light, but this living soil is so heavy that it has been kind of a pain to lift, even before watering. It's not that I can't lift it though, it is just very awkward to get in and out of the tent, and the plant got so bushy that I am afraid of dropping it or breaking off branches or something. Luckily, I can put green sunglasses in front of my camera, and it makes the picture look more natural - instead of purple or red. On my next week I am going to show some pictures with the differences of the light and the lenses.
