Pakistan valley & Gorilla Breath - DWC

apatterson Saturday January 4, 2020 6 clones were rooted and placed into the DWC Buckets with a quarter strength nutrient solution to start. So far all is good, they are all adjusting well to the new home. Wednesday, Jan 08 roots started to show from bottom of basket. New growth has stated and everything is okay. Little bit of reddish color on the roots, wipes off so I am thinking just leftover dust from the hydro rock medium. note: 4 buckets are packistan Valley (4 generation perpetual clones) and 2 Gorilla Breath (1st gen clone from a seed)

apatterson Plants are looking good for week 2. Water levels are good, no change in solution needed this week. Ppm good. All 6 have shown roots out of the basket. 4 PV have lots of Roots and several new nodes. Growing very good, pheno has excellent grown pattern. The 2 GB are recovering well. One has regained its green and started new nodes and the other has a 2 new node sets. January 14 - PV #3 (bottom center) topped. January 16 - PV #4 (top center) topped.

apatterson January 19 - flushed the system for cleaning and fresh water and food. Started on the Green planet fuel line up.

apatterson January 26 - start of week 4. Plants growing great, looking healthy. January 27 - bushing out like crazy, did some minor defoliation on plants 1 to 4. Noticing the growth difference between the 2 strains allot now. The Pakistan valley is a very stalky and bushy plant that seems to be growing yet again like a wildfire. The gorilla breath is much leaner, it's getting taller and has a more sativa like feel to its leaf structure. Jan 30 - trimmed all 6 plants. Removed lower leaves and branches.

apatterson Saturday February 1 - dumped all 6 buckets and cleaned. Fresh by nutrients made up at week 4 schedule strength. Cleaned a few more leaves. All things looking good so far. Gorilla Breath is jumping in size allot and has a fair bit of spacing compared to the PV strain. 2 more weeks of veg until flower begins. Wednesday February 5, 2020 - checked ppm of buckets, remains consistent at 550 range. Trimmed lower growth on all 6 plants and thinned out leaves.

apatterson Monday February 10 - Topped up buckets with fresh water and nutrients at half strength ( new feed schedule on Feb 15/16) All 6 plants for another haircut. Bushing out like crazy. Removed overlapping leaves and shading fan leaves to help prevent moisture and PM.

apatterson Saturday February 15 - Start of week 7. Will continue to veg until Tuesday February 18. Everything looking good. Tuesday February 18 - flushed all the buckets. Started on flowering nutrient schedule. Trimmed a few fan leaves. More needed after adjusting to flowering switch. Ready to take clones within the next 2 weeks.

apatterson Saturday February 22 - removed all major fan leaves and thinned out all 6 plants allot to make room for light to get to bud sites for flowering. Lollipop the smaller sites and bottom branches. Took 14 packistan Valley clones and 14 gorilla breath clones. So far everything looking good. Very happy with this grow this far and not a single sign of dificiency yet.

apatterson Sat Feb 29 - Not much change. Recovering from the defoliation. Removed 2 Pakistan Valley for clones / gifts to open the canopy up a bit more.
