first time grower here. Acapulco Gold has germinated and is looking healthy and eager. i am using FFOF soil and will be transplanting into a 1.5 gallon pot then into a 5 gallon bucket. my nutrients will be the fox farm liquid trio (grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom) and i will be starting with half dosage when the plant seems to need it, hopefully after about a month. i will also be using CAL-MAG to help the plant absorb the nutrients. here we go.

topped both plants and removed all growth underneath the third node. Ive heard to wait until the 5th node to start mainlining but I waited until the 6th grew just to be safe. the plants took well to the transplant and stress and are pointing high. More to come

plants are growing strong. as you can see on one of the plants the branch seems to be internally damaged from the stress and it’s not getting as much of a growth spurt as the other nodes. should bounce back though. so far at four manifolds. no nutrients yetq

hey everyone. feeling discouraged this week as you can see i stressed the plant to much and caused two branches to start to split off the plant and the leaves began to wilt. will they bounce back? fed big blooms and cal mag and seemed to help. other than that growth is good

happy girls. after stunting some of the mainlined stems they seemed to bounce back and are fighting for light now. defoliated bottom fan leaves. other than that everything is great

white hairs are starting to appear. the two plants are starting to show their individual genetic characteristics. one has bushier fan leaves than the other and is more of a bright lush green and is taller. the other plant is slightly shorter, darker green, and skinnier leaves. could this be a result of defoliation as well? fed them today with some nutrients.

leaves are really starting to yellow and brown from the flushing as the plant is taking up the last of its nutrients. runoff ppm is at 270 and ph is at 6.2. will be chopping next week at end of 2 week flush

Week 16. Harvest

Happy Harvest Day!

i harvested probably a week earlier than i wanted to do to light leaking in and creating pollen sacks on the bottom of the plants. but i’m super impressed and proud of myself for my first grow. day or nighttime smoke but it’s very cerebral. eases into relaxation after about an hour. friends have really enjoyed it which makes me feel good. no paranoia at all which is the worst side effect for me. really love it

Very nice estebenz619! I'll be following you on this. I grew some of these once and they were the most symmetrical plant I'd ever seen.
the end.
