Chocolope first photo period

15 gallon amended organic soil. Watering with bubbled water and will add General Organics Go Box line of nutes as required. LST will be completed with the use of the OG Spring for my first try with one of these.

Nothing much to report coming into week 2. From seedling to now has grown 4 inches. Expecting this week to be the start of veg growing as the leaves are developing. We are dealing with quite cold snap so a humidifier was added the other day Received a second light feed with bubbled water on day 8 plus some mammoth P. Feeding estimated at each 3 days going forward. 1/4 gallon per feed Thanks for stopping by and having a look.

Nothing much to report yet. Week saw the Chocolope growth in its leaf structure and root system. Expecting the start of aggressive vegetative growth in week 3. Moved the light schedule up to 20/4 and the additional cobs were turned on this week. Feeding the General Organics GO-BOX line 5ml per gallon, currently 1/2 gallon in the 15 gallon fabric pot every 2 to 3 days Fighting temps on the lower side as we are experiencing an extreme cold snap of minus 40 this weekend and my tent is in the basement, at least it’s not too much heat. Thanks for checking my first grow out! I’ll be back with updates. Happy Smokes ~ sleeve

Well, the start of week 4 is upon me. I must say, after 3 weeks of slow growth and development, the chocolope has now taken off. The first day of week 4 observed the leaves double in size. The second day it doubled in height. The stretch is starting. Through this week I should have enough height to place my OG Spring to start LST

The stretch has started during week 4. Feeding the General Organics GO Box nutritent line every 2 days with half a gallon of bubbled RO water. Completed initial LST with an OG Spring. Have had to add an additional tie this week already. Started tying back higher colas from the lower branches. With the 15 gallon pot, I intend to let her veg for another 2 or 3 weeks to get a large bush before hitting flower. Thanks for having s look everyone, feel free to drop a note. My first photo grow, I’m sure I can use any pointers. Happy smokes.

I think I’ll be doing the switch to flower this week. I’ve got a great little bush started and it should stretch over the first two to 3 weeks. I have s tone of head space for it. Been busy tying back branches that over grow the rest. The OG Spring on my first use has been an easy entry into LST. My canopy is well spaced and level coming into flower. Thanks for looking everyone, it has been a blast thus far!

Start of week 7 and the flip to 12 hour flower has begun. Slight defol on the lower branches throughout the week. Feeding a transitional feed to flower throughout the week and into next week. The chocolope is looking great and healthy.

Week 2 of flower. Transitioned into flowering nutes of the General Organics GO Box line as second week starts. Stretching an inch to 2 inches a day right now.

Into week 3 of flower. She had a good stretch of approximately a foot over the past week. Flowering has started and I have slowly been removing all lower growth and thinning for light penetration. Have transitioned to the full flower nute schedule as per General Organics. Smell has increased the last couple of days. Thanks for coming by and having a look.

Thanks for having a look at my first photo period grow. Just starting week 4 of flower. Buds starting to slowly swell, lots of pistils and the leaves are starting to frost. All lower leaves and branches are removed. Watering a gallon of bubbled water every second day with my General Organics feed schedule

Pics taken on day 29 of flower, just entering week 5. Same feed schedule, buds are starting to put on weight and frost. Several branches staked on day 29. Bud areas starting to develop a nice frosting on the leaves. 2 of my branches had the genetic mutation fasciation making both buds extra large and a ton of leaves. I culled the tops as they were under developed and the leaves would make for a weak, harsh smoke. I’m excited as I head towards the finish. Technically half way through flower. I’m sure as the week goes on I will slowly stake all the branches I’m sure. Thanks for having a look ✌️🏼

Continuing on my feed schedule, every 2 days with one full gallon of bubbled RO water. Smell is increasing on initial opening of the tent doors. The smell is a funky coffee chocolate hint, amazing. Can’t wait over the next 2 weeks. All tops are basically tied with bamboo stakes. The pistils are starting to fill in as the buds swell. Continuing with light defoil as leaves shade Bud sites. Thanks for looking everyone, please leave a comment and let me know how it’s going, any pointers as this is my first photo period plant. Cheers!

Starting week 7 of flower. Continuing with current General Organics feed schedule for the final week then start the last 10 to 14 day flush. Buds are really starting to pack on weight now. Thanks for looking everyone ✌️🏼

Start of week 8 and have moved over to just oxygenated water and 1mg of mammoth P per gallon for the finish. Buds have started to really fatten up the past couple of days. Thanks for coming in and having a look, the finish is near!

Week 9 of flower Continuing on just water with a touch of mammoth p Trichomes are milky, watching closely as I think I will be harvesting sometime throughout the week. Buds are swolen and the smell has increased in the tent. Thanks for stopping by for a look! The finish is in sight!

This chocolope took to the LST well. The buds have swelled to massive proportions, I am more than impressed with my first dedicated photo grow. I am definitely a dna genetics fan for good!
