'Space Cookies' by Paradise

Howdy and welcome to the slow go, week 1, w/ Space Cookies. The deets: **Breeder Notes** THC: 18-22% CBD: <0.1% Indica/Sativa Ratio: -60% Indica / 40% Sativa Indoor Flowering Time: -From 63 Days to 65 Days Effect/Buzz: -Long lasting high Smell/Taste: -Sweet, Pine Yield(s): -Outdoor (GR/PP) 1000 Grams (35.7 ounce) -Indoor (gr/m2) 550 Grams (19.6 ounce) Notes of the Week: -Space Cookies is behind all the other girls in terms of time, but she seems to be picking up in growth and catching up to her counterparts. -Made quite a few mistakes when starting out all these girls. All the newbie stuff we're told not to do and basic principles I didn't follow...super job👌. Over-watered, wrong seeding medium, heat/light stress and low RH are just a few of parameters I didn't have in place during germination. Really shot myself in the foot and put these girls on a tough go from the get go. -Everything seems to be moving along, even though PSK is in a little disrepair at the moment. Added a top layer of amended soil to hopefully wash down some nitro into the existing soil. I have also applied a very small dose of micro-gro-bloom w/ Humic acid to help replenish the soil of nutrients I'm positive are not there. That an the girls seemed to have already used up their nutrient reserve and are slow as all hell, w/ faint signs of nitro deficiency starting (this is after a dry out from over-watering. These symptoms are not feed related. There's something amiss with this soil and I know that for a fact. Just working out how to work this out (May look to do an emergency transplant into 3 gallon fabric w/ the correct soil, but we will see if there is progress first, in the coming days). -No concrete plans on methods and training I'll be using on Space Cookies, but she will be held short. I know that I will be using GHE series on her and finishing up the remaining product I have left w/ them. If I run out, I will substitute with Green Planets Trio and Humic/Fulvic acid additive. -This will be slow folks. Until I figure out some things and implement the new schedule I worked out, I really don't know what or where these girls will be in the next couple weeks. Completely touch and go at the moment. I have faith that it'll be alright....just losing time and lots of it.

Working some things out in my day to day routines to help w/ the stir crazy feelings I've been having lately. Prioritizing mental health, essentially. Trying to stay busy and get the hell out of the house (and go where I'm allowed too, lol). I'll be semi-absent but I'll be back to update my entries and catch up with all of you within the next two weeks. Much love and take care out there, everyone. I know we all know how effed up the world is right now, but I'm positive things will smooth out in time. Stay safe all. Cheers👊😊
