Chemdawg!! All Three of these ladies have broken the soil and sucking up 600w of M/H rays!! I have added on saturday a 6 inch carbon filter, TBN naturals co2 canister, more flexible duct work and lowered my light to 30 inches. We'll see how how they handle being lowered than we will lower again if all is well to around 18-20 inched pending heat. I will be ordering a more powerful for blowing onto the light fixture. We might even do some LST on week 4-5?!?! We'll just have to wait and see. Im going to be using U-Cann organics Herb Thrive(5-4-5) and Abundant Bloom(2-7-7) which is a Gaia Green product. I like the Gaia Green line up so much from my outdoor grow i had to try there cannabis nutrient line up. The dose amounts for these nutrients are 2TBSP or 30mls per 3 gal pot every two weeks. I'm going to guess around week 3-4 I'll be using these nutrients as I've preloaded the soil with Gaia Green All purpose with 4-4-4 and Bloom 2-8-4. Herb Thrive: Bulk Ingredients:Alfalfa Meal (Certified Organic), Azomite, Basalt Rock Dust, Blood Meal, Bone Meal, Feather Meal, Fishbone Meal, Fossilized Carbon Complex, Glacial Rock Dust, Greensand, Gypsum, Insect Frass, Kelp Meal, Mined Potassium Sulfate, Mineralized Phosphate, Oyster Shell Flour and Rock Phosphate Abundant Bloom: Bulk Ingredients: Basalt Rock Dust, Bone Meal, Feather Meal, Fishbone Meal, Fossilized Carbon Complex, Glacial Rock Dust, Greensand, Gypsum, Insect Frass, Kelp Meal, Mined Potassium Sulfate, Mineralized Phosphate, Oyster Shell Flour and Rock Phosphate.

Well we have a mutant is this batch, pheno one seems to have topped herself well isn't that a neat trick. These girls are a little more squat than the rest of the bunch but none the less still beautiful looking. Its day 19 for these three can't wait to see what happens over the next two weeks. Been working on the watering this grow as I've noticed we tend to overwater and seen to be working great no signs of bugs so far on this organic mix fingers crossed.

Ol Chemdawg took a nice jump this week on day 26 from the tallest being 4 inches to now 11.5. Pheno one and two are both at 10.5 inches tall and pheno three is 11.5 inches tall. Pheno one really took off after her self topping she looks good! These three are staying a little more squat than then the other 2 strain in the tent but thats ok i'm sure they'll stretch right out here soon enough. Positive pressure put into the air cooled hood with a can intake filter, as well as one for the intake for the tent. After replacing the diy filter I made it was hard to believe how much dirt it caught, pretty well plugged, I've made sure to have extra replacement filters for the intakes on hand. Hopefully next week we'll get to put the HPS in!

2-7-7 abundant bloom 9 mll
glacial rock dust 6 mll
Day 32: Two of the Three are now in bloom Id say it'll only be a couple more days before the last one (pheno one) kicks out some cotton tops. Pheno one is 19.5, pheno two 21.5 and pheno three is 21 inches tall. All three have received 3 tbsp of 2-7-7 abundant bloom. So we had something going on with the tops of the ladies here which I believe to be ph related mag so I have added 2 tbsp of glacial rock dust, if this is not what it is feel free to pipe up, I don't believe its nitrogen as they haven't been fed anything except bloom up to this point. I also changed out the MH for the HPS on sunday so we should see some explosive growth on day 47 when I get back from work!

Day 47, 17 days into flower and these ladies are looking really green and over nuted, I do think the soil was to rich for such a short veg time. There very skinny and shorter compared to the rest of the strains, they have also just been grown with not trailing what so ever and getting pushed out by the bigger girls, another light would be nice right now to spread these girls out better but there going to have to suffer it out on the cramped 4x4. We did a flush on these three ladies with 4 gals per pot to try and dump some of that nitrogen. I'm going to let these pots dry out and give them a feeding of bloom, shouldn't take to long as the dehumidifier is doing to pretty good job. They do look like there going to have very tight buds just by the appearance. Starting to have a cal-mag problem in everything which I'm sure the light maybe to close, heat as I found a pipe that came off for however long, ph is always correct, over nutes could be any of these things causing or they actually do need it so I'll be adding some oyster shell flour with the feeding. All pipes have now been secured with 6 inch clamps, no more tape. Sorry about the quality of the photos, it was a busy day.

Were now on day 55, flowering 25 days for these ol girls. There suffering from a bit of cal mag not as much as the other three strains in the tent but there coming along and decided not to feed after checking possible finish of being 55-65 days 8-9 weeks. After checking the the mushroom caps off that goodness we all wait for, were at roughly 90% milky. They have been getting flushed on every watering to try and dump all the nutes left in the pots but not sure if I'm going to get it as there still pretty green. Going to be keeping a close eye on them as they might be getting chopped this Wednesday. Temps have been in check this week due to the issues that had to be solved. thanks for stopping in.

She was very easy to trim, she was also covered in crystal! I had ran into a cal mag and all other sorts of issues that got outa of hand before it got corrected so that played a big role in what my out come was. But over all its a great strain, she stayed pretty small so it would be a great auto for anyone with a closet grow or a hight restricted grow. I had done zero training to any of these ladies but one of them did end up topping herself. Anyways were going to continue on with out growing experience hope you enjoyed.

Great choice of strain ... Running seven of the Originals right now, also try a soil moisture meter helps let you know when the soil is dry. Good Luck Buddy

@Mr_Weeds_Autos, Thanks sir, I do have a moisture meter, but running low humidity right now not ideal I know giving the top layer of soil the appearance of being dry but down below it is in a good range.

Hey man. I’ve got an Auto Seeds Chemdog on the go now for one of my legal four. License for micro-cultivation should be coming soon I hope in which case I’ll have lots of other, bigger autos. 🤠
