A few weeks late to the party with this diary. A little back story first. I was given most of my equipment as a "take it or leave with nothing" loan repayment. It was brand new and I have the space to use it. So I built a room and started researching. I bought some seed packs from crop kings from a local supplier and headed to the grow store for everything else I needed. I was planning on keeping notes on paper but found an app that keeps track of everything quite neatly last week. So unfortunatley I dont have any pictures of my girls before week 3. That shit has changed. Keeping track of the progress and looking at how they grow from week to week has definitely been one of the more rewarding parts of this journey so far.
So I started by setting up 3 fem seeds of each, Green Crack, Purple Kush, and Crown Royale. Of those, 7 started tap roots. After planting in red solo cups with promix hp I lost one more to my impatience ( pulled the head off trying to remove the shell after it sprouted). That left me with 3 crowns, 2 cracks and one lonely PK. For the purpose of this journal I will be following the Purple Kush only. Weeks 1 and 2 I fed 1ml/l of the 3 part AN nutes with calmag added. I'm using RO water as my tap water is heavily chlorinated, hence the calmag supplement. I
potted up from the solo to a 4 liter pot in the 2nd week. The cup was well rooted. The middle of week 3 I topped her at the 3rd node. By this time my AN nutes were bumped up to 2ml/l. (Note on my light schedual. I think I would rather run the 1000 watt mh light for only 18-6 rather than 20-4 but my rooms in an unheated garage and I'd end up having to run a 1000 watt heater when the light is off anyways).
@Farmboyconnor,
I've been fish-eyeing your girls as well. Healthy stalk on her. You beat me to the punch on the turn. I'm thinking I might be waiting too long. But my room wont be ready until next week so it is what it is. Looking forward to seeing our ladies in flower. Good luck growmie ✌️🖖
@@JP148, thank you my man. Appreciate the drop in. I was spying on your mainlining technique as well. Nice work! I was late to the training game with my girls. I've learned so much in the last couple months that I cant wait to apply to future grows. ✌️🖖
