Day 1-14 (March 24th) (Day 14) I sprouted 5 Puro Loco and 1 Slurricane F1 (Archive) seeds in a mini aerogarden hydroponic system on March 10th and they they were getting way too hot in the small space I had it in. It was also given flowering nutes from seed. They started curling and cupping like crazy so I decided to transplant them into soil in solo cups and 1 gallon pots. They’re in my veg tent currently and I’m pretty optimistic that they will all recover nicely. I plan to veg them out for 3-4 more weeks, transplant into 1.7g or 3g pots for their final containers and then flip into flower at the same time as my flower tent. I’m using a dimmable 600w hps in a 4x4 tent with living soil/coco blend and nature’s pride dry amendments plus a few other rock dusts, foliars, teas, microbes ect. I’m keeping the humidity around 80% with my humidifier in my sealed tent. I won’t be topping, scrogging, supercropping ect. Just a little lst here and there. Recent events have caused me to move the plants in my veg tent plants into the flower tent and veg them out there. So that leaves me with an unoccupied veg tent where I can veg these girls out and flip them at the same time as my flower tents. I also have to move my tents by mid June so that worked out well I guess. Just have to buy a carbon filter before the flip. I also found and sprouted a bag seed of some Guava Cake a few days ago that was very nice. If it’s not a vigorous grower, I will scrap it because I’m not trying to risk the herm. Since I have to pack as many female plants as possible in this tent before the flip, I’m going to throw in 5 stunted black garlic seedlings. These ones are from a 12/12 from seed grow box I couldn’t keep lightproof. One of them just identified as male so I will pull his ass. He was the only one showing so hopefully any more males will be visible before the flip. I forgot to add, these were started on March 1st. So let’s just say all these plants are one month old but this will be the first recorded week.

Day 14-21 (Day 16) Everything is settling into their homes nicely. The locos and the slurricane don’t even look like weed plants they’re so deformed. I wonder if the hydro system fucked with their hormones somehow. A few of the locos are showing some really serious twisting. Garlics look perfect other than their tight node spacing. (Day 18) I’m going to hack off the lower branches (not fan leaves) on the garlics and anything big enough too see. I just pinch it with my finger nail and it falls right off. (Day 20) I took a closer look at the other black garlics and 2 more of them are male. So that leaves me with 2 bg females.

Day 21-28 (Day 23) I’m starting to think a few of these locos are permanently stunted. The new growth isn’t looking much better honestly. I wonder if those bulb mites are going to town on the underdeveloped root system like what happened to the garlics early on. (Day 25) I’m pinching lower stems at their birth before they turn into a full on branch. (Day 26) Just giving water and nothing special. I wonder how much nutrients is actually in the garlics solo cups. It’s a custom soil mix and I don’t see any signs of yellowing, even on the cotes. Maybe it’s too hot for some the locos. The slurricane F1 is rapidly growing, stretching and looking happy. Since it’s out pacing everything else by so much I’m going to pinch the top early and see if it will recover. I’m pretty confident it will, even under the stress. (Day 28) Going to give a foliar spray @ 8ml/L of Velokelp and 8ml/L of calmag from Remo nutrients and a bit of EM1 for powdery mildew prevention.

Day 28-35 (Day 29) I had some leftover pH 5.5 water from my other grow, it’s a little acidic but my medium is pretty base so it should balance itself out soon. (Day 30) Plants didn’t respond well overnight. They’re drooping and not looking very happy anymore. I’m guessing they will still recover in the next few days though. I’ve got to stay more consistent with the water. I’m going to make a water formula and consistently use it every time. I don’t like these pH fluctuations. (Day 33) I’m going to sprout 8 more plants today to help fill out the tent before I flip. I will be using pretty lame genetics but I will probably still find something I like. Got x2 SM Jack Herer, x2 SM Blueberry, x2 SM The White OG, x2 SM Badazz OG cheese. Last time I ran badazz og cheese it grew fine and yielded well but it got some pretty bad powdery mildew and the quality was lacking. I will make sure to give as many preventative sprays as possible before flip. This whole tent is highly susceptible to powdery mildew so I might be in for some issues later down the road. I will make sure to vacuum frequently and spray down the tent and my equipment as much as possible. The slurricane has recovered from its topping and is producing two new main stems. Its going through water quite fast so I’m going to transplant into a 1.7g pot. (Day 35) Dropped the ball hard today and accidentally knocked over the tray with all my new seedlings. Good news is they just got watered and were firm enough to keep all 8 seeds rooted and in place. Bad news is I mixed up almost every single container..... The only plant I am certain of the genetics is one of the cheeses. The other 7 are all mixed up! I’m sure I can tell all 4 apart by late mid-late flower, but this just sucks. I guess I will number them like prisoners 😭😭 I overwatered the slurricane a bit and it is looking like it has a lockout of some sort or it could be from the foliar spray. I’m going to back off and let it do it’s thing for the next week. I hope all the stress I’m putting it through will slow it down to the level of the locos and garlics. Garlics are looking happy so I’m going to transplant them into 1.7s today. Might as well get this slurricane, guava and locos transplanted too. Guava appears to be growing quite healthy but has had interveinal chlorosis since it has sprouted. If it doesn’t green up in the next week I will pull it. Man, I can’t help but feel this grow has been cursed since the beginning. Although a rough past don’t always make for rough future. I found a way to consistently pH my water to 6.2 every time. I’m starting with 60ml of chlorine free bottle, adding in 2000ml of RO water and just that alone gets me to 6.2. I can also add in 3ml of remo nutrients calmag, 2ml of EM1 microbes, 2ml of 0-0-15 kelp extract and the pH will stay stable at 6.2.

Day 35-42 (April 5th - 12th) (Day 36) Decided to transplant everything so far into their final containers. Hopefully they have enough nutes because I’m going to flip in the next week or two. The 3 locos in fabric pots will be transplanted a week before flip when their roots a little more developed. The tent is looking a little crammed with my outdoor veggies as well now. I will make sure to move them before flipping as well. I have to grab a few more 1.7g pots as I will have 17 plants flowering in here, not including all those clones that might root. I could end up with 20+ female plants in here before I flip. (Day 37) I’m seeing a serious immobile deficiency on the slurricane F1. It’s probably a pH issue so will just leave it be for a while. Will flush it if it gets worse. Seedsman genetics are all popped and stretching. European genetics tend to be very easy to grow so that should be something to look forward too. It’s also not what I’m used to seeing in my area. I drenched and foliared everything with my lite compost tea blend diluted to 600ppm. I made sure to give a good soak on each plant except the seedlings. (Day 40) Ok so I just stunted my seedlings again. This time with just compost tea foliar spray shrapnel. I will make sure not to do that again... Definitely not as bad as those locos but this is yet another setback. The early nutes seems to have changed the locos into an entirely different plant (joke). (Day 42) Oh god. My blackberry breath clones just got devoured by bulb mites from the inside... I will start cloning in rockwool or peat pellets from now on.

Day 42-49 (Day 43) I was at the dollar store today and I found the best little plant risers. And they all link together in perfect 12” squares. Fits in my tent perfectly and only spent 15 bucks. That should help the dry downs quite a bit. I’m going to transplant the euro genetics into 1.7g pots with amended sunshine mix #4 for their final containers. I moved all of the non-marijuana seedlings into a small greenhouse out of my tent so I have some more space and light per plant. I also set up an exhaust fan to keep the humidity at a perfect 65-70% night and day. (Day 44) Everything is looking a little nute burned and droopy. The garlics are showing signs of overwatering and nitrogen toxicity. They look like they want to flower so badly. Node spacing is weirdly short too. I picked up the American genetics to look for roots and they were busting out of the bottom. They’re definitely not rootbound as they’re not even a foot tall yet. This is likely from having soil that is too compact (from using too much rock dust and not enough drainage) causing my waterings to not even reach the bottom of the pot. This was also happening to my other grow. I will make sure to very lightly pack soil into pots for now on because you can always add more later. I’m going to fluff up the pots and see if I can loosen the soil a bit. If that doesn’t work I’m going to look at transplanting into 3g fabric pots and lightly shaking off most of the old soil. Luckily I added a shit ton of drainage for the euro genetics when I amended the sunshine mix so they won’t need a transplant. (Day 46) The fluffing didn’t do much. In fact it might have made it worse lol. I just went to the store and bought some Destiny Organics soil and have decided to transplant. I dusted off 90% of the old soil down to root ball which will cause an insane amount of stress to the plants. The plants started in the aero garden were being choked out by the shitty sponge plug it was germinated in. I took a razor blade and carefully cut them down the middle so the stem can expand. I might have cut a few major roots one or two plants. Other than that everything is transplanted. I cut all my amendments in half and I packed the soil very loosely this time. The situation is not ideal by any means but I’m hoping they will bounce back in the next week. This should at least set them up for a more successful flower. I can’t really expect much quality from botched run but who knows. I might come out with some fire. Since this is my last grow here I don’t even have to pay the power bill for the next few months! (I have a very generous landlord as he’s letting me finish my grow until mid September now 😂) (Day 47) I’m going to give them their first good watering and test my fluffy soil. I watered in approximately 700mls each making sure it soaks to the bottom of the pot. (Day 49) All the plants have bounced back except for the ones with root damage. They are still looking droopy and sad. The black garlic #1 has recovered really nicely and is looking happier than ever. The apical growth tip is so tight it has like 4 nodes within an inch somehow. I recently learned that hormones contained in kelp and seaweed extracts can act as plant growth inhibitors and shorten node spacing drastically. I only added a very small amount of kelp meal to the soil so it must be leftover from the previous foliar sprays Velokelp. I’m going to pinch the top off bg1 and see if the lowers can catch up. Sucks to do that so close to flip but oh well. The euros are looking fully recovered from their burn a little while ago. The sunshine mix is quite thick and water retentive as well but at least it has some extra drainage. They’re all looking quite healthy.

Day 49-56 (Day 1F-5F) (Day 50) Plants are all showing some odd deficiencies and lord only knows what I’m doing wrong this time. I’m guessing I overwatered as I’m seeing a N/mg deficiency. Slurricane is showing some super odd browning and crisping on the lower fan leaves. I have to flip into flower tomorrow (April 21st) as my other tent is at maximum capacity now. Plants look like shit but I have no other choice. Normally I would never do that so close to being flipped. Hopefully this will at least be worth the electricity used. (Day 1F) Switched out timers and flipped. I forgot to put my temperature controllers on the outside of the tent. I will do that ASAP as I don’t want to risk light leaks. (Day 2F) Everything is looking a little better. Ive been noticing that while my A/C is running, I don’t have full power to my light because the ballast is automatically dimming the light. I didn’t run the A/C today and the plants seem to have responded well but correlation doesn’t equal causation. (Day 3F) I decided to toss all the locos except one. I also tossed bg#1 as it shit the bed out of nowhere. Hopefully that will clear up some room in the tent for these others to start thriving. (Day 5F) Plants all responded well to the extra light. Maybe that was a big part of the problem in the first place. I had 17 plants under a 400w. I’m still only running 400w because 600w gets way too hot unless I have my carbon filter running 24/7 which I’m actually starting to consider.

Day 56-63 (Day 5F-12F) (Day 6) Water retention is still a big issue in this soil, even with the reduced amendments, loose compaction and added perlite. Pots just aren’t drying out fast enough and I still need to water in enough to reach the bottom. I wish I had some flood trays for this exact reason so I could bottom water instead. (Day 9) I’m going to try running 2 liters of water through each pot until I see a good amount of runoff on each plant. Maybe the nutrient content of the soil is just too high. If this doesn’t work, I got nothing. Plants are drooping like crazy but that’s not surprising as I just flooded them. I’m going to turn on the carbon filter to clear out the humidity a lot faster. Over the next few days I’m going to let the filter suck the life out of this tent until it’s bone dry. If I start seeing deficiencies arise from my minor flush, I will foliar feed some 1-1-1 kelp and some 3-0-0 calmag. I highly doubt I will see any deficiencies but it doesn’t hurt to plan ahead. (Day 11) Ladies responded well to that heavy watering which is a little surprising honestly. The pots are still soaked and super heavy but they seem to be happy. (Day 12) I’m really not seeing any well defined bud sites which is not a good sign at this point. I have never grown under HPS and have never flowered a true 10 week strain so it could just take a little longer in early flower. So far I’m unimpressed

Day 12F-19F (May 3rd - May 10th) (Day 13) Pots are still super heavy and I don’t see these things drying out anytime soon so we’ll see over the next few days. Still no signs of overwatering. (Day 14) I’m going to do a little lst. Better late than never and since the pots are saturated the stems are bendier. I noticed they were quite droopy during lights off but are praying by lights on. (Day 16) Man these things are filling out slow. I’m going to drop the light a few inches and see if that helps at all. Definitely no early trichs. (Day 19) So I haven’t had to water at all in the last 10 days and the pots are still quite heavy. Oddly enough, I still see no signs of overwatering. Perlite did it’s job I guess.

Day 19-26 (May 10th - May 17th) (Day 21) Stretch is almost over and the plants still look like they’re in veg. I’m seeing almost zero trichomes and when compared to my other room it’s laughable. At least the sites are starting to fill in a little. One plant is super leggy and stretchy. I’m guessing it’s Jack Herer but won’t know until late flower or harvest. The plant in the far left corner has great structure and thick pistil clumps. I’m guessing it’s either blueberry or the white og. Blueberry has a pretty distinct smell so differentiating all the strains won’t be that hard actually. (Day 24) I’ve been rearranging the plants once in a while just to get all sides exposed to some decent light. I never realized how much I value my LED until this run. The only way I would ever use another hps for flower is if it was one of those 1000w DE lights that all the commercial grows use. Sites are starting to fill in quite a bit now. Trichomes are still non existent though. Even on the archive genetics which is really surprising. (Day 25) Pots somewhat dried out finally. Tomorrow I’m going to leach everything with another 2 liters each and top dress with 15ml of nature’s pride bloom, 10ml of Destiny launch and 5ml of kelp meal. I’m starting to see minor N tox on some of the plants so I will probably give them a full gallon. This tent is largely experimental so I’m going to fuck with these plants pretty heavy to iron out some theories and try some new techniques. (Day 26) When I was watering today I noticed that slurricane, Puro loco and guava cake all hermed. The archives just got too stressed out in early veg I think. When I dug up both plants they were still being choked out by the sponge aerogarden plugs. Puro Loco was leading by far in the trichome department too. The guava cake was from a hermed bagseed so it’s not surprising at all but that kind of pisses me off about the “elite” Archive genetics, especially if you paid 200$ for a 10 pack. Then again, it was still my error and not their genetics. Luckily I didn’t pay a dime for them. Running those was a complete waste of time and space. With proper environment and no seedling stress I’m sure I could have grown some amazing looking stuff. All the European and Canadian genes look fine though. I’m sure they would have filled out a lot more if they weren’t being choked out by hermies. No signs of bananas anywhere else. Hopefully the 4 slurricanes I have outdoor this year will pull through without herming.

Day 26-33 (May 17th-24th) (Day 27) I wanted to experiment with an organic PK boost in flower so I’m top dressing most of the plants with 2-5.5-5.5 nature’s pride bloom, 0-18-0 bat guano, 1-0-3 kelp meal and a dash of oyster shell and rock dust. Two of the plants I gave just nature’s pride bloom but I’ve already forgotten which ones. I hope that small amount of N won’t continue to tox the plants. I’m pretty sure I got rid of most of the N with that last big watering. I also did a decent defoliation on most of the lower leaves and branches and a few of the uppers. (Day 30) A few of the plants definitely didn’t like the N. I’m seeing some odd clawing and very dark green and shiny leaves. (Day 31) I’m going to flush out the toxed plants with at least a gallon and give the other plants a normal watering with some runoff. I’m going to wait a week or so until I see start to see some deficiencies then I will give them each an individual feeding tailored to their deficiency or just leave them be. This is why growing multiple different strains in a single room can be a problem unfortunately. And using organic dry amendments will never be as accurate as hydro nutes for individual feedings. (Day 33) The smell in here is practically non existent. I don’t even have a carbon filter on my fan. If it starts to smell I will vent it directly outside but as of now, the smell is still quite low. BAOGC 1 & 2 are leading the pack in terms of density, structure and bag appeal. The smell is almost like a sweet rotten milk. Not super overpowering but it’s got some good terps for sure. #1 looks like it will be slightly denser and bigger nugs. I’ve grown this once before with mad deficiencies and this time it has won me over. I’m all around impressed so far. Blueberry #1 has that really old school look, with leaves protruding out of the main cola. It has perfect structure and node spacing but will definitely be on the leafy side. The smell is very weak but nostalgic. The trichomes are barely visable and almost all stalk. A very undesirable trait when breeding for high thc. #2 is garbage in my opinion. It’s basically #1 with less frost and no good structure. TWOG is somewhat average so far. It has good structure and decent frost but not much else going for it. The smell is feint but is earthy/piney. It’s certainly better than the blueberries and jacks but that doesn’t say much. The jacks are looking like trash right now. They’re stretchy, didn’t handle N well and the bud structure is very airy. I’m sure I made lots of errors but the genetic potential for these 2 is not the greatest either way. Pheno #1 smells slightly lemony/citrusy but still looks almost identical to the other. I personally love the smell of the knuckled #2 pheno. It’s a light, sweet, fruity candy smell. The scent is very nostalgic as most of the commercial black market stuff in my area (2007-2011) had the same exact smell, color and look. These will probably take an extra week or 2 before they’re filled out.

Day 33-40 (May 24th-May 31st) (Day 34) I just found a herm branch on the tight blueberry pheno. It looks like a random pollen sack opened right above a lower branch. I removed the sack but I saw a small amount of dust fall onto one of the lower branches. I’m going to leave it to see if it will pollinate that small branch at all. I spent a good 5 minutes looking closely for bananas or claws but couldn’t find anymore. The main bud is clearly unaffected so I will just leave it unless it is visibly seeding itself. Too bad because I’m really excited for this plant. (Day 36) Not a lot has happened since I flushed them. Growth actually looks healthy and I don’t see any deficiencies on anything yet. (Day 37) Both of these badazz cheese phenos are picture perfect and easily hold up against Canadian and California quad grade. I might try to reveg them at the end and take some clones. They have this unique pungent, grassy, sour milk smell that is just wonderful. The density and bud structure is looking great too. This whole plant will probably take 3 minutes to trim if that. (Day 38) Just found a banana on the shitty blueberry pheno. This pheno is trash and I would honestly throw it away if it didn’t mess up the 3 perfect rows. It has almost no frost, no smell, is airy and has bad structure. I’ve actually never seen a plant with such little frost. Even outdoors. (Day 39) I think most of this tent will be done by day 60 but I will probably ride it out until day 70+. I don’t think the blueberries or the jacks will fill out very much either way but taking it too day 70 will ensure maximum production from each plant.

Day 40-47 (May 31st- June 7th) (Day 41) For the first time in this grow these plants are looking halfway decent. Smell is ramping up too. I finally feel optimistic about this grow. (Day 42) The two jacks and the chunky blueberry are showing early signs of N/Mg deficiencies. I know it’s late in flower but since I’m experimenting with this tent, I’m going to give them one final feeding of nature’s pride 2-5-5.5 (tbsp) along with a teaspoon of oyster shell flour and some rock dust. Everything else I’m going to give a teaspoon of rock dust and oyster shell. There is no way these amendments will fully break down in time to be used by the plant but they could at least use the pH buffering and trace amounts of minerals after their recent leach. Everything but the BAOGC is covered in pistils that don’t really match their bud size. I hope they fill into their pistils because an over abundance of hairs drops the bag appeal like crazy. Over the last few cycles, indoor and outdoor, I’ve definitely learned that different strains and phenotypes mature at different times. Sometimes really radically too. (Day 43) None of the plants are fading at all but they’re still looking good. Black garlic I know should be fading but remains dark green and toxed. I popped a developing seed out of the main bud too. I wonder if that blueberry herm branch pollinated it at all. It seems like plants don’t really like that Destiny dark matter soil by itself. I find it works better mixed with coco or promix 1:1. (Day 44) I’m starting to think I might be mixing up the TWOG and BAOGC. BAOGC took forever to fatten up last round and the 2 phenos I suspected already look done. I was thrown off by the similar terps. The beauty phenos are definitely TWOG (Day 45) God these Jack Herer’s smell good. Nothing but fruity funk. Almost like a vanilla or blueberry yogurt. I would say this stuff has the most overpowering smell in the tent now. I’ve noticed they’re starting to foxtail like crazy. Blueberry#1 too. I’m watering a final low strength feeding of seaweed extract on everything. (Day 47) Everything really fattened up this week. Even at the beginning of the week I was saying I didn’t think they would fill out. Jack Herer and BAOGC specifically made some big gains and nearly doubled their density and still have quite a way to go on them too! The smell has ramped up and finally, everything is looking happy and healthy.

Day 47-54 (June 7th - June 14th) (Day 49) Pots are now drying out at a fast pace. I’m watering a solo cup or more everyday depending on the weight of the container. (Day 50) Jack Herer’s are really starting to show their sporadic structure. The buds are nearly all foxtail. The chunky BAOGC pheno is really fattening up now. It will definitely be the thickest main cola. (Day 51) My other tent is just about finished now. I will chop that down on the 21st along with whatever is ready in here. TWOG might be the only strain finished by day 60. (Day 52) All the plants are starting to get deficiencies except for twog and black garlic. TWOG is actually starting to fade out with a weird interveinal dark purple color. (Day 54) Solid week. All plants look happy and growth is on point. Can’t wait for harvest. One more week!!!

Day 54-64 (June 14th-24th) (Day 55) I got a good look at all of the plants in the dark and all of them are quite faded out except for black garlic and the blueberries. Running multiple different strains that all feed differently would be a nightmare on a larger scale! (Day 56) Everything is looking on point and happy. Plants are drinking about a liter of water every 36 hours. (Day 59) Jack Herer #1 has some of the most wild looking foxtails I’ve ever seen. Not a very desirable trait but it’s cool to grow. It’s smell is pure bliss, it’s now matured to a mango funk. I will do a more in depth look at each strain after dry. Jack #2 is starting to pop fresh nanners. I think it is from stress due to lack of nutrients and/or heat stress from where it is in the tent. Both jacks are feeding really hard I’ve noticed. If these bananas get any worse I will just harvest early. Blueberry #1 is developing miniature seeds in its calyx’s and is starting to foxtail like crazy. It almost looks like it’s reveging. Earlier in the season I pulled off an entire bud that was covered in developing seeds but I couldn’t find anymore after that. I will likely find a few bag seeds in this pheno and Jack #2. Blueberry #2 is still terpless and frostless but it’s really starting to fill into it’s structure now. It’s getting impressively dense but that all it has going for it. This one needs to go 65-70 days at least. BAOGC #1 is so beefed up and chunky I love it. The main cola will be a good 6 grams and the lowers are thick gram nugs too. I will let this one go until day 65 BAOGC #2 is much smaller but a super hard feeder. It was one of the first to start yellowing. This pheno is pretty average in my opinion. It stacks a little tighter but has small buds TWOG #1 has this strange velvety look to it’s frost, something I’ve never really seen before. Although it’s a little on the leafy side. It filled out super early and is ready to harvest now. Both are fading out with black streaks on the leaves. TWOG #2 checks every box for quality so far. This might be the perfect strain and I’m sad I didn’t get a clone of it. The only thing wrong with it is the long trichome stalks and lack of resin heads. It is also an early finisher. I will probably take both TWOGs down on the 21st. Black garlic is just mouthwatering. This plant literally looks wet with resin. It was super airy at first but slowly filled out to the point it’s one of the denser plants in the tent. Cant wait to smoke this stuff. (Day 63) Well, every plant in here is looking done except the jacks and blueberry #2. Since I’m harvesting my other tent tomorrow I might as well give everything the chop before I risk bagseeds. I’m going to give a final watering right now and harvest tomorrow. I’m going to be drying in my flower tent kept between 60-65F and 60-65% RH. I will do a full plant hang to extend the dry time for as long as possible. Guess that’s a wrap then. I will give a detailed breakdown of my errors and final thoughts on the run next week after the dry is completely done. ✌️
