Royal dwarf first grow

—

Same set up as in week 1. Covered inside of cars board box with aluminum foil. Plants grow well and look healthy

Growth continuing as expected and plants look healthy. I germinated a third seed because I thought the one which had problems would not make it. Ended up with 3 plants. Started with gentle LST

Home Box Vista S arrived and with it the Mars Hydro TS 600. Plants loved it and developed perfectly with huge changes day by day. Unfortunately I didn't take pictures for a while

They love the tent and the LED. Growing larger by the day and transitioning into flowering well. Entered a Veg week by mistake. This is obviously a flowering week

Steady and fast grow. They are healthy. Deep grean colour and happy. I keep bindibg them down due to hight restrictions. They recover over night, get stronger and point up.

A lot happened over the last 1p days. Buds are growing bigger by the day. Pictures should say all. Also introduced a watering pump which is running 15min a day in the morning as lights come on. 1,6L for 3 plants. They suck the nutrition up at a high rate and are healthy. Had to intruduce the water pump because I had to go away for 3 days. Worked very well. Smeeling good too. Filter does the trick. No smell when filter is running. Also started defoloating which has to be done every 4 - 5 days now because of the rapid growth.

It's been a while since I took pictures but the babys are doing well. Plant Nr. 1 is 63 days old and I expected it to be ready already. But the trichomes still show clear under the microscope. Started feeding water only yesterday. It's a surprise how long it takes to be ready. If I didn't have the microscope I would have harvested already so its good to have the tools to do it right. Love watching the frosty buds. Plant Nr 2. Is 56 days old (one week younger) and growing extremely well. There are more leaves in the buds than in plant 1 and the plant shows a lighter green than plant 1 but it has grown a bit larger and doing very very well. It was subjected to the Mars Hydro TS 600 a week earlier in veg than plant 1 which might explain the difference in growth. Plant Nr. 3 is 63 days old but still lagging a long was behind. It has topped itself during veg and growing nice bud sides but it is weeks behind in growth. I am unsure if the buds will still grow as large as in the other two plants. If yes it will yield well. If no it was still an interesting grow.

Started flushing this week. The final stage is taking much longer than I had expected. I see some amber appearing but only very light and scattered. Will continue monitoring on a daily basis to determine time of harvest. All three plants are at slightly different stages. I will probably harvest them at the same time to test the different stages at harvest. Trichome stages at harvest : 1. Mostly amber 2. Mostly cloudy, hint of amber 3. Cloudy

Easy to grow and quick strain. Developed well and automatic through veg and flower. I only needed to make sure to water every 24 hours. Great strain for beginners. Only used LST which helped spread the stems well and I am sure it increased yeild. This strain is so short and quick that I would not do any high stress training. Defoliation aided growth and bud development. No matter how many leaves I removed the plants kept on growing strongy. I planted two seeds on the same day. The one sprouted immediately and the second took a week longer. The first grew from the first to the last day in a healthy fassion and gave the highest wet yeild of all three plants at around 210g. Harvest with milky and amber trichomes The second grew extremely slowly and topped itself during veg but continued growing steadily. It remained the smallest plant but had the most frosty buds when harvested. This plant yeilded 100g wet and had mostly milky trichomes. The third plant was planted a week after the first two when I thought the one of the two would not sprout at all. This plant had the best lighting from early on because I had received the mars hydro TS 600. I believe that this is the reason why this plant grew larger than the other two but the buds were not quite as dense as the buds from the first one so the wet yeild was around 180g. some amber but mostly cloudy trichomes upon harvest. No leaves had to be thrown away post harvest. There were basically no fan leaves on the plants anymore. I saved all sugar leaves which I had removed pre drying which left me only with the 10cm short main stems. Truly amaizing bonsai strain.
