Grow stopper-entire flowering tent

I have decided to stop growing for a while. I have moved most of my plants into the flowering tent with the exception of one purple trainwreck plant and one widow x plant. They are remaining in my veg tent for now. I do not have room in the flowering tent for them at the moment and since they were monster cropped clones, I will need quite a bit of room for them. Once all of the plants in the flowering tent show their sex I will decide what I want to do for sure to end my grow. Currently my plan is to try and hermie one of the branches on one of the plants to father feminized seeds. I purchased colloidal silver I intend to spray on a female clone. Currently I am trying to root one small clone of Pineapple Express and I have been spraying it daily. If the clone hermies I will not have to chance one of my larger plants. If I have a male plant, I may decide to just use the male plant to father seeds and get a mix of male/female seeds rather than going through the trouble of hermie-ing the clone. I have two unsexed bag seeds in my flowering tent right now though they came from dispensary stuff so I suspect they will be female like all my previous plants. I find it unlikely for a dispensary to have males in with their females, I suspect the seeds I have been finding in my bud are from hermied females resulting in feminized seeds(hence why I have yet to get a male plant). Purple trainwreck is the plant that is the farthest into flower. It’s on its third-fourth week right now and is the far right plant in the tent. The top left plant is the second largest, it is Pineapple Express and is on week 2 of flowering. The bottom left is a bagseed that was in a mix of seeds. I think that one is berry white. It can be berry white, white widow or purple trainwreck. It is one week one. The middle top plant is widow x; it was another mixed up bagseed but it only could have been white widow or berry white. It is a clone. The mother plant’s bud was most similar to white widow. It is between week 1-2. The bottom middle plant is another bagseed. It resembles purple trainwreck somewhat and could be any of the three. I suspect white widow or PT for this plant. It is on week one of flowering.

Lollipopped the monster crop clones in the tent; defoliated everything a bit. Everyone seems to be moving alone nicely. Everything is showing pistils except the two bagseeds in the middle of the tent. Smells great in the closet. Between the two tents I have a 2x7’ area with three Sunraise lights running. I’m hoping to have a better harvest than last time. Last grow I only used the 2x4 tent with three plants and two lights yielded about 2 ounces per plant. I nute burned the hell out of them last time and I’ve been feeding about 1/4 the amount I was last grow. These plants seem much healthier and are much larger than my last grow. I have also become more comfortable with defoliation than I was previously. This time I am focusing on larger, denser buds. The plant in the solo cup is a Pineapple Express clone. It has not rooted but the stalk has turned white and it hasn’t been needing much humidity anymore. It is almost rooted; I have been spraying it with colloidal silver to try and Hermie it. If I can get it to Hermie I can separate it before the pollen sacs burst and selectively breed branches on my other plants to make feminized seeds. **growdairies is messing up; I cannot change the temperatures on substrate, night air or day air. Average temp for all is about 75 degrees Fahrenheit.

Checked the two unsexed bagseeds again this week. I was correct, I had one male and one female. I have moved all the younger flowering females into the larger 4x2 tent and moved the male plant and the older purple trainwreck plant into the smaller 3x2 tent. I am hoping to isolate the male and minimize pollination of my girls. This is an end grow, I want both bud and seeds. My plan now is to minimize pollination through isolation and pruning. I want to pollinate a single branch on each of the females, this way I only have a few seeds from each plant and still have quality bud. The male has been trimmed back some already and the pollen sacs have not burst yet. The older purple trainwreck plant is adding weight now to the buds and should be done in approximately 2-3 weeks depending on trichomes. In the larger tent, the back left corner is Pineapple Express. It is the tallest plant in the tent. The front left plant is white widow. The middle front plant is also white widow. The middle back plant is a bagseed, I suspect berry white still for this plant. The far right plant is the younger purple trainwreck plant. Currently feeding the younger plants every 5 days or every third watering depending on the plant. The older flowering PT plant will get its last feeding this week and will start a flush after that. Happy growing 👩‍🌾🏼

Send help... the Pineapple Express has taken over the tent... she’s massive at 44-45” tall currently... stretch slowed down but she’s past the light at this point and even light angled doesn’t hit the very top of the main colas just yet. (Back left of tent) White widow looking great for the lollipopping method I used on her(front left of the tent) White widow 2 growing well, got a nice dose of ferts this week based on her light coloration(front middle) Berry white growing slowly still, tent is more suited for sativa dominant strains but this one gives the tent a bit more variety. (Middle back of tent) Purple trainwreck 2 growing like a beast this go round, she’s taking up half the tent almost by herself and filling in a 1.5x2 foot area in nicely. (Far right of tent) Purple trainwreck 1 bulking up extremely well, buds are nice and sticky, density is great so far on these buds. Hoping for another 14-20 days. Started her flush after giving her one more dose of nutes last week. Spotted first ambers on the trichomes... she’s only on day 45 of flower but the trichomes are already beginning to turn amber. I still suspect this strain to be semi-auto(has rudelaris genetics somewhere) and additional growing of this plant has simply increased this theory. The plant did have pistils when put into flower(18/6 lighting) but was a clone of a previous plant. She did reveg in 18/6 lighting and was cut from a flowering plant. I believe she had already transitioned into flowering since the plant had started opening pistils up again before being placed in 12/12. I believe she was a week or two into flower at the start of 12/12.

Large 2x4 tent: Pineapple Express far back left corner, white widow front left corner; berry-white middle and purple trainwreck far right. Small 2x3 tent- purple trainwreck on week 7-8 of flower and white widow on week 3-4. Male-separated in a dark non-aerated room All the girls are growing well. Berry white suspected plant is still looking indica. Purple trainwreck is budding well and stretching too. Much more than I’ve seen other PT plants do, I don’t think the nodes are too spaced out though. White widow is starting to frost up. This particular plant is a clone, the mother developed buds on the leaves and the fan leaves were covered in trichomes giving me lots of good trim for edibles. The leaves are already beginning to frost up. The Pineapple Express is a bit out of control, I had to put a second net up to control her. I went ahead and super cropped her as well, I did snap a few branches but she doesn’t appear to be phased by the damage. I selectively pollinated specific branches on each female in the larger tent. The male was removed before the pods opened. I think one pod may have already split but I tried to minimize his natural pollination. He was moved into a different room with no air flow and no light. Pods opened in a few days and I used tips to collect pollen and then dab onto buds. Pollinated branches are marked with a green tie around them. I’m hoping that by spraying the tents with water after pollinating that I didn’t pollinate the entire tent. Here’s to hoping for neat seeds for in the future whenever I am able to grow again and for good bud 👩‍🌾🏼🌱

Lots of bud development, starting to stack up a bit. Thinking I will see a lot more bud growth in the coming weeks. The older PT is finishing up this week and starts our harvest for the next few weeks. I’ll be checking seeds on the buds I pollinated and trichomes on the others. There are a few random seeds isn’t he tent but so far it appears that the majority of the bud is seedless. I think I was able to minimize the pollen like I wanted to. Male plant was chopped at the beginning of this week after only a few pods opened. I only needed a few to get enough seeds to grow again in the future.

Harvested the oldest purple trainwreck plant... had about 1.9 ounces dry. Pineapple Express got her last feeding of nutes and I started her flush. Looking good so far, just watching those pistils and trich’s. The older white widow is starting to speed up her bud development. The younger white widow replaced the purple trainwreck in the small tent and got ScrOGed. I’m thinking the younger one will yield more than the older one. Berry white got moved to the smaller tent with the white widow plant. The last purple trainwreck plant is coming along nicely, she’s the bushy plant in the larger tent. We should be harvesting almost weekly for the next month... super excited for these coming harvests! Thanks for reading! Happy growing! 👩‍🌾🏼🌱

PE will be harvested this week, super excited! Trichomes are just about where I want them, just waiting on a little more amber. PT is chugging along, looking like she’s going to have some larger buds this time! WW is still mostly white in her pistils, she will take longer than PE to finish up. WW in the small tent is looking fantastic, she’s ScrOGed and has been teaching towards the light a bit. Hoping for a big yield off this plant. BW is still small but she looks like she’s getting nice trichome development. Should be harvesting almost weekly, super excited to see how much I get from this entire grow. Check individual diaries for more specifics on each plant! Happy growing! 👩‍🌾🏼🌱

Chop week for one white widow and the Pineapple Express as well! Super excited to see how much I actually have. Let the PE flower into day 72 of 12/12, trichomes appear cloudy and amber both. PE is hitting hard, took a few tester nugs before the chop. Waited this long because she didn’t have the feel I wanted just yet. Berry white I’m giving a few more weeks, buds never really packed on any weight and I’m waiting tos we if she’ll do more. Older white widow plant is ScrOGed and is growing well. The purple trainwreck plant is showing some nitrogen deficiencies but she has so much foliage, I’m not too concerned about it at the moment. I’ll be updating next week on wet and dry weights and adding reviews to the strains. Went ahead and took some of the seeded buds I had pollinated early in the grow. Have all kinds of seeds, most appear viable and have decent weight. Still drying out but I’m happy with what I’ve gotten.

Smallest plant I’ve grown, best bud I’ve gotten. Hoping to have a few seeds that obtained the blueberry phenotype this plant had.

Much better bud this go around! Lots of seeds and lots of bud! This was my final plant. I took the tent down and am curing everything. Have seeds stored in the fridge for use in the future but for now, this was my final grow. Happy growing everyone! Specific details on every plant is in their individual diaries. This diary was for the entire grow.
