Ok... wow! Another great week of growth! Plants are healthy and vibrant... the smells are wonderful...
So what's new with MA#2? She growing very nicely, her buds are thickening up, producing some nice resin that is also becoming more fragrant! Her color is still beautiful, nice dark green... very vigorous and healthy.. no issues I can speak of.
I've continued with the LST and light trimming. Really did minimal addition this week hoping giving her a slight break will be good for her. I'm still trying bending and hiding of the fan leaves with some success..
I added 1/2 the dose/ concentration of "Big Buds ORGANIC" 1 feeding (GD does not have the ORGANIC version listed, so I listed the normal one)just for a slight kick. Seems to have responded nicely to it. Not anything "drastic" or "phenomenal" but "nicely". My watering as still as before, a cpl light waterings followed by a heavy.
So, you'll notice the pics of the JUG.. ok, so I was curious about adding CO². I've read a bit on it, and the "theory" is sound I guess, so I did my own Redneck-ification.. I used a 1 gal jug, put in 3 cups of sugar, 2tsp yeast, water, and covered the opening with a balloon that I poked a few holes in... yeast fermentation creates CO²... extremely cheap and easy to do... (as a side note, I found out fungus/ mushrooms create CO²! Looking at adding mushroom grow inside my tent... think about it... look it up!
I dont know if having "companion plants" like I do in the current setup is actually effective or not, but its pretty... and it doesnt hurt anything. But it does appear that my Basil and Oregano are not fans of my grow light (tho the Pot and apparently the Lavender do), seems like it's too much for them..
Overall in my opinion a successful week of good growing...
Hey there,
Thanks so much for running a diary of our genetics 🙌

Happy Growing !!! 🌱☘️🌴🍀🌿🌳
Nice co2 diy so do u have a co2 ppm meter and is the tent closed or exhaust fan on timer only? Co2 is the major thing i am missing especially in garage as the closet inhouse gets all my farts.
@BigHickory357, interesting mushrooms never knew!
I read unless you have a lot of CO2 AND the tent is closed system or else it just goes away before leaves can absorb the extra. Ive been looking for a cheap co2 ppm meter
@GYOweed, thanks for the compliment. I dont have a ppm meter, but from the smell it produces a lot.. smell meaning from the fermentation not "smell of CO²"! I was just curious and thought about the extreme basic of CO² and how it can be produced. Also looking at putting 2 or 3 mushroom (food not magic) grows in there, I read mushrooms produce CO²!.. so maybe 2 oyster mushroom grows in my 4x2 tent, should increase the CO² nicely, maybe....
Congratulations on the new baby. She looks good at first. Choose a good variety. For a treat. Keep doing what you are doing and ask the growing ganja gods to protect your women until the growth is over.
