Up 2 weeks. Germinated in aerogarden, moved to solos when sprouted, moved to 1 gallons at start of week two. Watering every 3 - 4 days with 6.5 ph, 15mm big bloom with 1/4 tsp myco. Roots organic soil. Under two 450W vivaspectra LEDs at 80/80/30 blue/white red in 10x10 spare bedroom. Will move to 4x4 gorilla tent when transfer to 3 gallon smart pots week 4 or 5. Not seeing any CW journals so thought I’d give it a try. Humidity is low but spraying 2x day rather than turn on humidifier.
Moved to 4x4 grow tent. 700 Vivaspectra 100/100/60 BWR, 24”. Still in 1 gallons. Will move to larger containers in a week. Using FF nutes schedule 100% except using myco instead of kangaroots, using different kelp and spraying 1-2x/day with canopy/mg. Watering every 3 days with 1 quart solution. So far so good. This is about the age they start to take off if happy.
Using FF week 3 plus spraying with 1mm/liter cal mag and iron. Moved to 3 gallon/final pots.
Watering 2 quarts every three days. The yellow plant in the middle is a struggling acdc which I’ll move to a 3 gallon next feeding.
Looking good, starting week 5. Will keep in veg until tallest plant is 18”. Maybe another week to 10 days. Topped all 5 plants this week and cloning 2. Using week 4 FF nutes 100%. One plant has always been a bit yellow but about the same size as the rest.
Switched to 12/12, feeding week 5 FF 100%, every 3-4 days, 2 quarts/plant. Removing lower to middle fan leaves. Really should have only 4 plants in the 4x4 tent. Light now 100/100/100.
Trichomes starting to show under microscope, week 8. Using Fox Farm nutrient schedule, week 8 plus calmag. On vacation now for 3 weeks. Hope to have a resin filled tent upon my return. For some reason I can’t correct temps on the conditions screen. Day temp 75-80, night temp 67-70, substrate and solution about 75. I also have two 4” fans, input and output.
Beginning of 8th week flowering. Using Fox Farm week 12 nutrients per their chart. Trichomee are showing about 10% amber. 1-2 more weeks and should be ready to harvest. This will be my first attempt at CBD tincture vs THC oil.
Harvested today and set to dry. All plants were showing 60-70% amber trichromes after 8.5 weeks flowering.
Just planted 5 cannatonic seeds 3 nights ago, two up this am. Will start a log on them when a week old.
So this was my first CBD grow. Will get back after dried with the dry weight. Would probably get more per plant with 5 gallon pots but then could only fit 3 vs 5 in my 4x4 tent. My plan is to make infused oil and alcohol to provide to my old arthritic friends.
