Another of the new Mephistos, if the high is anything like the description this will be awesome :D
She popped within 24 hours and then sprouted 36 hours after planting.
THE ROOM
1.2x1.2x2m tent
Coco/Perlite blend 70/30
600W MH for veg and HPS for flower (although they'll be stuck with the HPS for a week until I harvest my caramel auto)
11L fabric pot
UPDATE:
Made it to the end of week one! There's a little light-bleaching on the tips - that was my bad. Since I was on crutches I got my bf to move the plants up higher for me, but I forgot to tell him to re-position the light. WHOOPS. They're in a better position now and chugging along well. :)
Cosmic is the darkest green out of the girls, seems to be doing well!
So I topped this chicky late on Day 15. She was the only one I felt comfortable giving the chop to, the others were growing a little slower. She didn't seem to notice at all, took it really well! Showed sex day 19. She's growing fairly low and bushy so far, but hopefully the topping will spread her out a bit. :)
She's really starting to pick up speed, and growing in a nice manageable shape. :D
I haven't really done any further training on this gal since topping, cept leaf tucking and a bit of defol. Trying to keep the lower half pretty clean so I'll get more brutal later... I still hate chopping them :(
This chicky is doing great! She'll be having a bit more defol tomorrow cause I'm pulling them all our to clean the tent. Seems happy nute wise, drinking everything I give her. Takes the most watering of any of the ones I'm growing atm. Flowers are coming in nicely 😁
This girl is getting so frosty already! Really can't wait for the buds, I love sparkles :D
Not much to report - she's had a wee bit of tip burn so flushing once a week now. Next week she's gonna start the PK Heavy but after that I'll dial back the nutes and feed more regularly, see if that keeps things going smoothly. :) She's getting fed almost every day atm, def my thirstiest gal.
Gosh she's frosty! I think I'm in love. Gave her PK Heavy with feedings this week. I'm always guessing with that stuff cause it's sposed to be about 3 weeks before harvest. *shrugs* She seems to like it! Starting to fill out nicely, can't wait to see how the buds develop. 😃
The smell on this one will singe your nostrils!! I can't really describe the aroma as the other girls in the tent are smelly bitches too, so it's like when you try too many perfume testers and have no idea what you're smelling anymore. But it's a really nice combination!
I'm flushing once a week at the moment with molasses. And I've started adding random feeds with the Monsta Bud and molasses.
The main issue with this chicky is the buds are too heavy for the stems, which was expected from the strain description. :) I've got basically every branch tied to something, and I had to kinda tie the base of all the stems together cause they were just leaning out and getting in all the other plants' way.
Everything seems to be on track though! I'm thinking another week then can start the final flush, depending on how well she bulks up next week!
Cruising along this week :) Buds a litte fatter, tent a little smellier. Starting the flush on day 64 to hopefully harvest day 72.
Not much going on except new branches falling down every day. I've staked some of them but my stakes are too short lol. Might need to buy some bigger ones before I run this gal again
End of the road! She's flushed and ready to come down.
This week I flushed with molasses the first 4 days, then a big flush of plain RO water. Put her in the dark with no more water for the last two days.
Got her fade on nicely - I can't really get a good pic of the whole plants since half of it's falling down! She's got spindly sativa branches and the buds are too heavy - I tied and staked the main colas but the side branches were all flopsville. :P
I'll be back in a few weeks with the final dry weight and smoke report!
xoxo
So wow. This girl was so easy, pleasure to grow. She put on the frost early and just filled the tent with the most amazing smell, it really is like tropical sun cream. She wasn't too fussy with the nutes, only difficult part of the grow was trying to support the big heavy buds dragging down the spindly sativa branches. But if I had have staked them earlier and gotten rid of more side branches that would have been heaps easier, so it's mostly user error. :)
Chopped her on day 72 (she was ready earlier but had to wait for my day off).
Really happy with the yield too! Which is good cause part of me didn't want to give any of this to friends cause it's amazing, but I also want to share the awesomeness so now I can do both!
I'll update this smoke report after a cure, but it already blows mine and Mr Tonks' minds. Strong giggly, euphoric high, then a real heavy relaxation falls so I kinda slump in my chair with a big stupid grin. It's epic, definitely will grow again. 😀
Good luck, my girl @gardenofautos grew mrphisto and knows a lot about them, she can help if its needed.
You are welcome to our group chat here, the round table of cannabis knowledge :)
She looks like she is right I track. My favorite thing about Mephisto other than, The Frost factor... is the fact that if you keep the first 3 weeks happy then the rest that follows is straight 🔥🔥🔥
@biggreens420, Half of me wants to pop another one straight away, I can tell I'm gonna churn through this bud! Thanks for all the support mate :) Been a fun grow
@Mrbumpy, Thanks matey! Enjoyed writing it. :) Mainly the pistils turning dark and curling in, and she got her fade on well. :) I checked the trichomes a week before harvest too but forgot to take a pic with the microscope sorry! They were all looking pretty cloudy so I figured by the flush there were probs a couple ambers, but my last grow I harvested them pretty late and got a lot more sedative effects so this time I was trying to get her down a bit earlier. 😀
@JUNGLE_B4RNS, Yeah shes a good few inches taller than Skywalker and CDLC on the same schedule! And this was the only one I topped so she's just a gun pheno.
