Mephisto run

Chri5py First time trying Mephisto genetics. Ordering from them was by far the best experience in shipping and the freebies were awesome. This run is roughly 50 Coco and 50 perlite that I amended with Dr earth dry amendments and worm castings. I will most likely need to water these more often bc of the aeration but am hoping that also means an increase in growth. So far everything looks great.

Chri5py The ladies are growing pretty well this week. The forum stomper 1 is really taking off. The pink panama seems to be lagging behind but still growing well. There was a couple gnats flying around earlier in the week. Has some sticky traps to control the adults and I top dressed the pots with some diatomaceous earth to hopefully prevent any of the babies coming through.

Chri5py Ladies growing fast, well except the Panama is a little behind still. Might just be a small pheno. The forum stomper 1 is still blasting through and growing super fast. Its leaves aren't as green as I would like them but that might be due to how fast it's growing.

Chri5py This week the ladies are growing strong. The sour stomper is definitely starting flower and probably won't stretch much more. The pink panama looks to possibly be flowering as well but is still behind all the others when it comes to size. Had to lst a lot this week and defoliate. I'm trying to keep Temps below 80 to hopefully help with any issues the plants might have.

Chri5py Girls are looking very healthy overall. First time running just Coco and perlite so hopefully these girls won't run into any big nutrient issues. So far the sour stomper is flowering fast and is also the healthiest. The pink panama is still smallish but not as bad as before. Both the forum stompers are really getting big and slowly flowering so I expect another week of stretching.

Chri5py The ladies are looking good. Both the forums are getting big. The forum 1 is showing some deficiency in the very most top leaves. Hopefully doesn't get to bad. The other ladies are looking perfect and hopefully they stay that way. Especially the sour stomper is flowering the fastest and is super frosty so far.

Chri5py Ladies looking good this week. Still having issues with different deficiencies. I'm caving in and getting a soil ph pen. I always pH my water and I always calibrate my pH pen so it's never off more than +-. 1 so ik that's not the issue. So hopefully once I get my soil ph pen it will confirm my theory of the soil ph being off. Other than the deficiencies the ladies are looking to produce some nice buds. The sour stomper is looking frosty af. Starting to see some hues of pink purple coming through on the pink panama. And the forums are taking their time probably gonna go a full 12 weeks on those.

Chri5py Sorry for the late update. These pics were actually taken a half week past the 8 week mark. Anyways the girls are all showing different deficiencies and I'm sure it's something to do with my mediums pH. I was supposed to have a soil pen already but had some issues with a vendor and supply is short apparently all around. Should have one in the coming days. Even with the issues the girls are doing OK. The sour stomper is the frosty by far. The pink panama is starting to get some colors but not as much as I was hoping. The forum stomper 1is doing good. It has some colors coming in and it's buds are small but super dense. The forum stomper 2 is a Lil behind in development. Probably gonna take a week or 2 longer than the other forum. Both the sour stomper and pink panama will be coming down sometime this week, just gonna keep checking trics daily.

Chri5py This week the pink panama and sour stomper were ready for chop. Should have their results by next week. Both the forum stomper are doing OK. The forum stomper 1 is gonna be finished first by around next week. The forum stomper 2 will be mabye 2 more weeks. I finally got the soil ph pen in and it indeed confirmed my suspicions. My soil ph was really low around 5.4 to 5.2. This was due because of two reasons. One was that the pH pen I was using for the water was actually off a couple points. I would calibrate it every month but I guess it just kept losing its calibration very quickly. The other reason I believe is because the amendments I'm using must have also lowered pH of the medium which was just made worse by the faulty pH pen. However now that I know the issue I can correct that for future grows and just take it as a learning experience.
