This is my first Photoperiod plant to grow indoors. I chose a 1:1 strain, since I am interested in processing most of it into oils and a good little CBD is always helpful. My last grow from Humboldt went well and since I like the Blue Dream she seems like a good one to try. While obsessing over different growing techniques, I came across two journals on the 420 Magazine: Dutchmans Grow Journal and also Asesino85s. Asesino85 is calling this training method QUADLINING and the results look amazing. In this diary I try to document, how well or not this worked out for me and my plants 😍 Week 0: I like to soak my seeds in a Hydrogen Peroxide solution for 12-24 hours and then move them to a warm & dark place inside a ziplock with a paper towel soaked in the same solution until a tap root shows. Quick info on the solution: 1 ounce/28ml hydrogen peroxide 3% in 1 pint/473ml water - google for this article as reference: How Does Hydrogen Peroxide Affect Seed Germination? I am doing this, since the first time I lost 6 seeds with regular methods. My guess is, it wasn't warm enough. So now I add a heat mat to avoid that mistake, but still go with the peroxide, since superstition :) 3 days after soaking & paper towel, the tap root was long enough to be put in a jiffy and join the big ladies (my last Roadtrip grow) in the tent. She was roughly 60cm away from the light, on a heat map still and in small plastic house for humidity. Call it Day 1, when the first real leaves are showing πŸ˜€ On Day 3 her tap root showed at the bottom of the jiffy, so I thought it's a good idea to repot to a small plastic pot. I watered her a little and added a humidity dome. I didn't think about the different environments needed for my plants inside the tent. So while the seedling needs lots of humidity, my other plants in flowering don't. Have to think of this next time. What I also noticed is my impatience, it's awful... Since not pretty much is happening in the first couple of days, I tend to overthink everything and also do things, that might stress my plants. Here comes the overthinking part: I put her in a small plastic pot, watered a little with PH water (approx. 300ml). 3-4 days later the soil was still wet at the bottom. I blamed the plastic pot and was worried she might be overwatered. I really like fabric pots and never had to think of overwatering so far. So I ordered a small fabric pot to repot again.

Thanks @DeaneR and you say it, still trying to optimize the drying game. One part of the plant I already processed into a fresh cut oil. The rest is drying in the tent and fridge. Can’t wait πŸ˜›

@starke, With high CBD strains we have found through lab testing that the CBD % starts to degrade and turns into other cannabinoids such as THC, CBG and CBN when the glandular trichome heads start to turn Amber πŸ‘ I like to harvest with only 2-5% Amber 85-95% still cloudy with 2-5% still clear πŸ€— That should work out perfect mate πŸ‘Œ Stay safe out there πŸ™ Kind regards ✌️ Team-HSO..

@Humboldt_Seed_Organisation, Thanks guys, very excited for this grow. Lot's of good things to come from this great strain. How is your experience growing it, do you harvest earlier due to the CBD content? Have a good Sunday β˜€οΈ

Wow, she is looking great! Thanks for your comment on BioHeaven; I was also pondering using it. Maybe I will give it a try with my next grow!

@starke, as this is just my second grow, I never used anything else than BioBizz. And it seems to work fine for me. Honestly I think that "every nutrient line is the best one"; if you find something that works for you, I see not need to change. I think there is a lot of voodoo and superstition involved also. Reminds me of people who can hear the difference of a 1.000$ cable in their stereo set πŸ˜„

@Buddha2, you're welcome, try a small bottle, you won't need much. This is my 6th plant in total using this and 1/3 is left. I use at 1/3 to 1/2 of the recommended dose. In another forum, everyone is raving about Megacrop by Greenleaf Nutrients (https://greenleafnutrients.com/product/mega-crop/), have you heard of it? I've ordered a free trial package and will try with one of my next grows. It's a one-stop-solution with a little calmag added, I like the idea of that. Have a good day and thank you to you too, you're very kind, it's a joy meeting people like you online, incredible value added ✌️

Looking great! Nice buds forming πŸ‘. The triangle shape is interesting πŸ˜€. I think I'll try the quad method in a future grow. Check out my White Sugar OG diary and my Mango Sapphire diary. I'm experimenting with a couple of training methods. Goodluck going forward, you're on your way to beautiful harvest.

@DeaneR, thanks, I'm very happy πŸ˜ƒ Definitely check out the Quadlining threads on 420 Mag, much better explanation then mine, I'll send you PM with the link. And also, don't do the same mistakes as I did. Happy growing πŸƒ will check your 2 Ladies. Have a good day ✌️

What do you think about bio heaven?
starke
starke
@Psilocubensis, I like it. Was thinking about adding silica, heard it's good and helps with strong roots and other benefits. Heaven seems to have amino acid like silica and that's what I had at hand. Amino acids allow the plants roots to do 1000 x more chemical reactions than normal. Since using it, I had great root growth through my fabric pots, which is supposed to be a good sign.
