4/18 Week 4 start (day early but I had the pics)
Decided if we are going to have any good yielding plants going to have to up the nuets. They should be very fine with this.
Looking to work it up to 800 ppm if we can.
Watching for any hairs showing as we hit them with bloom nuets at that point try and extend veg. Yeah prob not but no harm trying
4/19
First hairs are just showing so introducing Bloom nuets back into evening feed to try and slow it down a bit, start at 25% work our way up to 50% , any side bets?
On an unrelated note I may have found the problem with small plant Mary. Seems a fungus set up in her and I never used a strong enough solution of H2O2 to kill it.
Case in point, if it dont bubble it may not be strong enough.
4/20
I am down again with that same gastro-intestinal crud, seems my wife and I keep passing it back and forth, feels bacterial.
She is caring for the grow in the mean time, just two feedings a day. Will pick it back up when I am able.
Nuets changed to reflect what we are feeding them to try and keep them in veg a bit longer. Feeling better but this is getting old.
If nothing changes thinking of cranking up the HID loaded with MH bulb tomorrow

Feeling somewhat better so taking over for my wife, she did a damn good job!
Hopefully that stubborn 20:1 seed on her grow will sprout a tail today.
They look good, going to increase nuets again tonight, seems lights on is best time to hit them with a change.
Leaving Bloom nuets at 3ml, but increasing Grow to 7ml/gal - metric system really should have provided something other than just liters, heck they no better than quarts.
Considering adding a one time organic either fish sh!t or recharge for the humic acids
on a side line: The grow so far:
This has been rough, sick three times in the last 3 weeks kind of puts a damper on enthusiasm and the blasted germ process just went badly due to one seed that did not make it and two odd balls with only two decent plants. Just not happy, not blaming anything just time to take a new look at what we are doing. Our only really trouble free grows have been photos lately not sure why. Maybe I should just pop more seeds at the beginning and only keep the good ones.
Fine with tomatoes but a little pricey on cannabis.
The Mary plant is expressing true ditch weed characteristics, only half joking here. Must have been the stress but really not happy with this.
Seriously may just go to all photos as just dont have these issues there.
Changed the feed for one time only to half grow half bloom, tomorrow going down to two ml/gal Bloom until Flower.
Level off at about 7ml/gal Grow 2ml/gal Bloom generally as we did on the Green Crack.
Man being sick really threw me off
4/22
New feed ratios and added Si as the branching is beginning big time and want them strong.
Hope we can keep them in veg long enough to help. If I can get another week we will be happy with that but will take more π¬
4/24
Gave them a shot of PK booster, one time hit due to the amount of hairs showing.
Turned on the HID as well, MH bulb 300w setting.
Tightened up training a bit
4/25
Growth has increased nicely since adding the HID, noticeably larger better color, get Pics later.
Leaving feed as is till something happens to change it.
Despite a very rough start the grow is coming along decently.
Pics
Still in veg(ish) as Flower is still encroaching but not yet there see how long this goes on. Stems showing no "wooding up" at all and no signs of colas formation so still in veg.
Baba is a complete Indica pheno the other two far more sativa in growth as well as the light leaves.
End week 4
Anti-Thunderdome...?
See the two pics of Sally.
Did one seed enter ... two plants leave or is she just that messed up?
Seed was very slow to take up water and sprouted slightly oddly on the towel, thought little of it at the time.
So popping replacement just in case but WTF? π³
hi @rhodes68 . these are genetic mutations. As a rule, the smallest plant will barely grow and sometimes even dies. I have already witnessed by a well-known grower that the two plants grow well without problems. It has happened to me 1 or 2 times, put the seed in the water and two root tips come out. only once did both grow up but the little one barely grew and ended up dying π. good luck mate π
Germed from very small seed (glares at QC)
Mary is on her own feed, propping her up with H2O2 and begun light feeding again at every irrigation.
No idea what to do next, did not respond to recharge, and kangaroots did not seem to help so I am down to H2O2
Hey there,
Thanks so much for running a diary of our genetics π
Let us know if you need any assistance, weβre more than happy to help.
Happy Growing !!! π±βοΈπ΄ππΏπ³
@Med_in_Tropic,
Thank you
I am happy with the produce just wasnt as much as we would like from 3 plants.
We are looking into a photo strain of LSD see if we can get that yield up
@Med_in_Tropic,
Baba is about a week behind the other two which are now bulking up though not at the rate we would like for sure.
Plus there is still Jane no telling but we will see.
Think there will be a good bit, at least enough not to have to grow it again for a few months
@Med_in_Tropic,
Yeah we gonna end up with a good bit of it, hasnt helped being sick off and on the whole grow but it is what it is err?
The CBD plant on the other hand is looking amazing so not sure wth is the deal
Hello friend. How are you? π
I recovered from my illness and started writing my diary again. if you are interested - subscribe. π
MJ's medicine helps a lot, you know what I mean?π
Annoying loss of any control with their decision to flower.lol My only moan about autos. Loved the look when these flower but they did feel a little twiggy budded once cured. Seeing these amazing colours in flower halfway through then the twigs being boring colour to the buds is a killer. , if you nor done them before it will makes sense. nice bud and varnish goodness but nice. good work so far. hope they get busy soon , they flower quickly when they switch.
@rhodes68,they will take some getting through. They have to be the most attractive buds ever when flowering. Never had anything grow so psychedelic looking before. Ironically I am smoking the last of my Lsd-25 after I became "Dankrupt" and had to negotiate an Oz back from the "distributor " I move my harvests with. lol I got 3 different phenos from each seed. 2 had the amazing colours but were opposite ends of the grow spectrum with 1 going big and another very wide and squat and a totally green all round that you would only know it as Lsd-25 if you had smoked the other phenos too. tasted the same just looked like "a sister from another Mr" or a "cuckoo in the nest" . lol I am a big fast buds fan and now they are moving into fast flowering photoperiod strains too. I think I may be a lifelong subscriber.lol
I am currently running 3 of the tester strains with 9 more to do and so far for us on this side of the market , they are a winner . They grow very well like an auto , maybe not as fast initially but they do find their feet once rooted up. They are also running new batches of autos through the forum here too. lots of new lines being tested here as "Fbt " or FFT on fast buds page. They are contact able through the message ap here and as an obvious customer and buyer of their products , it could be worth hitting them up and with your enquiries on their new strains being tested and if they want you to run a couple too. They are great guys on their message App and very helpful. Nothing to lose bud.
@Ganjagrandaddy,
Well we continue to do what we can to delay flowering (heh maybe) but by now all other grows of LSD-25 have flipped.
This is the fourth go round for us on this strain, its (LSD) medicinally unique so we grow often.
Actually looking into a photo variety to grow next time but heck still have 14 seeds of this so π
@FoTwenny,
Grown this strain four times now, rule number one two and three are all Do not stress theses plants.
Well if you can help it
They just dont take a lot of stress and still produce well and if you can keep em happy enough you may get the green pheno, trust me thats the one you want π
You have plenty of light so thats no issue you prob enjoy the results a LOT, we do.
