Athos I started two seeds (saving a third one for later) in warm water for 8 hours and then planted in 60 cc of soil (Biobizz All Mix) in mid September. The week ended with 2 pair of true leaves.
Update: I've added some pictures of the grow box I built. The dimensions are: height 100 cm, front 60 cm and depth 40 cm.

Athos I transplanted from the 60 cc pots to 16 oz (470 cc) party cups; they experienced a bit of transplant shock for 2 or 3 days. We already have 4 pair of leaves at the end of the week. Still giving plain water.

Athos Quite a few thing happened this week, at the beginning of the week I topped the 5th pair of true leaves, leaving only 4 nodes, which already had quite a few side shots. I had some leave problem where they were canoeing up; I had this problem for quite a while until I finally discover that it was the pH of the tap water, but I didn't discover this until way into flowering.
The plants were transplanted again after 9 days into the party cups and went into 2 liter pots at the end of the week.

Athos Nothing much to comment, the plants are still quite small, 4 inches or so but very bushy, the side shots are developing nicely as a consequence of the topping. Notice the many pictures with leaves canoeing up? That's why you should check your pH even if it's just plain water (my tap water is 20 ppm, but even so it's pH is close to 8, sometimes even higher)
At the end of the week I transplanted from the 2 liter pots to 6 liter pots

Athos Quite a stretch, they doubled their initial height in just 1 week, they went from 8 and 10 cm to 16 and 20 cm.
Still having some weird leaves canoeing up, at the end of the week I flushed the soil thinking that it might have been too hot. Still no nutes

Athos Started feeding them lightly, since they went through another transplant to 11 liters, they soil should have enough to not need to much feeding. I did some LST too.

Athos Still stretching and light feeding, no sign of flowers yet. Well it's supposed to take 10 to 13 weeks to flower, so no surprise there.

Athos Finally, the bud sites have started to form flowers. This is the week I started measuring the pH, it was (most of the time) over 8.0. Once I started making sure that it was in the correct range the canoeing up went away in a couple of days.
There's a couple of lower fan leaves yellowing up.

Athos Both plants are still growing up, very slowly while the buds are forming. I hope they stop soon. Next time I'll let them stretch under 6500K bulbs and maybe try some HST.

Athos Not much to add really, the lower leaves yellowing continues in 1 of the plants, regardless of the feeding strength.
There's no more stretching (finally), only buds forming.

Athos This is a new grow box that I put together with screw in LEDs (6 * 10 = 6 * 10 Watts)
It's week 8 of flower and I think it's still 4 more weeks to go. This is my first indoor setup

Athos An another week has gone, so we are about to start week 10 of flowering. It seems I have some calcium deficiency in 1 of the plants, not surprising since my tap water is 20 ppm (0,04 EC) I bought some Grotek Cal-Max and gave it some of it last night. My run off is at 525 ppm (1,05 EC)
There are some brown pistils, but most of them are still white. Thricomes are mostly clear, but some have started to become cloudy and 1 or 2 are amber. I just saw some calyxes starting to swell this week, I hope they keep growing and putting on weight.
According to the seed bank their should be 1 to 3 more weeks.

Athos Took some pictures at day 66 of flowering that I'm uploading. Did some major defoliation, the leaves were so packed that my humidity was skyrocketing and at the end of the lights out period some of them were wet, plus they were blocking the light to reach the middle and lower part of the buds and I want to see if this will allow the lower parts to fatten up.
Thricomes look like 70% to 80% cloudy, The rest are clear: I could harvest, but as I said I want to give the mid & lower bud sites a chance to develop. Tomorrow is watering day, I'll give them plain water and probably harvest in a week or two.
Update: Today is day 70 of flowering and the plants are going down today. Took the time to inspect them last night: the pistils are yellow and retracted and the thricomes are mostly cloudy with a few amber.
Athos This is my first time growing indoors. The micro grow cabinet was a fun project to put together and it has given me just the harvest I was looking for .I had quite a few problems that I expect to learn from in the next (current) run
Caught this one late, super grow though. Nice to see some micro grows. Great yield with that strain, it’s an interesting one! I wouldn’t have expected much, may just check it out.
Keep an eye out on the next grows!
Hello my friend, nice work on does girls 😙
About pic 3-4, If you are sure its cal def i heard Bio Bizz has product called Bio heaven, try add him for your next grows (this one is a bit to late). You have this problem only on 1 plant? if so what is the % leafs shows the def? you 100% sure its not bugs?
@HLG_Israel, It's only present in the top most leaves of 1 plant, the rest is healthy. Well it could be a slight light burn, since the plants are very close to the lights (2 inches) and those leaves might be even closer. I'm pretty sure it's not bugs.
These buds look to be coming along fantastically buddy. Looking like an absolutely beautiful job flowering these girls.It looks like all your hard work and love for these girls is paying off and showing in their development. I'm very excited to see how these girls tip the scales during harvest as well and checking out the smoke report. Best wishes buddy and fantastic work :D
@Darkmanx, Thank you, good to know there are more of us in this place. I just started a new run that's in it's infancy stage if you are interested how it goes
