S1 Acid Dough #1

Tazard This is one of the seeds from my first harvest. It was created by allowing the mother plant to naturally grow male flowers (preservation instinct of an unfertilized female plant). I only found about 20 seeds in the 260g of buds from the plant that went to seed. I didn’t have any seeds in the clones that were in the tent with the mother nor did the other two Acid Dough that were harvested earlier in that grow. This suggests that the seeds were created by a “banana” in the bud (bananas usually pollinate from the inside). I will of course watch very closely for the dreaded hermie. I dabbed gel rooting hormone on the seed before it was put in the rockwool. I’m not sure it made any difference. The other Acid Dough was not dabbed with the gel.

Tazard Her first leaves are looking great she is working on pushing out her second leaves. D10 she’s on her third set now. D12 she is still working with that pesky third set of leaves but she has started the fourth. As of this week I am using rain water in place of my RO tap water.

Tazard Beginning of week 3 and she is growing so fast (just like her mommy). Small branches are sprouting from nodes and she has a nice healthy color. I’m still up in the air about method, though knowing me it will probably be super cropping. D16 I decided to FIM her today. I would like to have 18-20 colas on her.

Tazard I switched nutrients midweek last week to Advanced Nutrients. I was really excited and worried about the change. The ppm scared the hell out of me in DWC but the patient tolerant representative told me not to worry about the ppm. So I mixed up some 3week for her. She didn’t like it one bit. Immediately she began to wilt. I left the solution in overnight. She was still sad the next morning so I mixed her up some week 2 nutes. She absolutely loved it perked right up and seemed to grow before my eyes. I left the week 2 nutes in for 2 days and then gave her the week 3 nutes back. Without hesitation she was even happier and more vigorous than before. On day 21 I gave her week 4, full strength, nutes and she clawed the very tips of her leaves for about 3 hours. She is growing so fast. Having grown with my other nutrients for the last 11 grows I can easily see a huge difference in growth.

Tazard She is so happy and healthy. I have some autos in my tent that are late flowering so she continues with veg. I will spend the time getting her radial branches even with her tops.

Tazard She is looking great since the nutrient switch. I’ll top her once more for 20 tops total, let her put on about 4” (18” or 45cm tall) and let her flower.

Tazard She will be ready for the flower room soon!!! Got a good canopy. I’m just waiting for her to recover from her last topping and then we will get her going.

Tazard Pictures added from day 52 but I am a week late for updating.

Tazard Just letting her veg out and thicken up. I’ll probably get her to the flower tent this weekend.

Tazard Welcome to the beginning of flower. She’s handling the transition into flower so soon after topping very well 3 days in and I see noticeable growth.

Tazard She looks very healthy but two of her 20 tops had to go. So she now has 18 tops. Her sister still has 6.

Tazard Beginning the third week of flower. She is showing pistols at the bud sights, no signs of any balls. So far im very pleased with my S1 seeds. Although in consideration of the two Acid Dough I have growing I really think that for my space 5 tops are probably my best choice.

Tazard Shaping up nicely. I did some defoliation for light penetration. Looks like I should get 18 8-12” buds from her. Can’t wait to see how she compares to her sister.

Tazard She has added a couple more inches. Buds are starting to develop. I don’t think she will get much taller. I’d really like 6oz off her but I doubt I’ll get it with my 125w cob. Ok so I got busy and did the math. Her Canopy is 0,58m2 she is rated high/very high yield so say 600g/m2 that’s 348g. I added (2) 135w red heavy LED’s above her (395w total).

Tazard She has gained a few inches this week. I am really excited to see how tight the nodal distance is on her colas. She should fill in nicely! Thanks again for following the adventures of TAZ!

Tazard Just watching her fatten up. No problems. She’s a beautiful plant. I have had to pull s couple of branches in because they were falling outward.

Tazard She is a nice little plant with some nice 18” colas. She doesn’t seem to be filling out as fast in areas that are only receiving the 3000k light and not the old blurple lights.

Tazard I was reading Jorge Cervantes marijuana bible and he said that a plant that was topped right before flowering will take 1-3 weeks longer to finish. I thought she was behind her sister due to light issues. Now I know don’t top right before flowering!!! I don’t mind the extra time just happy to know why.

Tazard She is crowded by her big sister and the Green Crack. I try moving her tops around so they can get light. I think I like the height though and she fills up her allotted 2’x2’ space quite well. Her sister is just to big for an 80” tall tent.

Tazard I am just leaving the work to her now. Waiting for a few amber Trichs so I know I’m not missing anything from her.

Tazard She is swelling up fast. She is very sticky. I’ve started her flush and may chop her this weekend with her sister #2, if time permits. She smells of sweet tropical fruit.

Tazard It’s time. I’m really going to chop her this weekend.

Tazard She grew about the same as her parent. She was crowded by her 64” sister and the 54” green crack. I am ok with the yield since I gave the area and lighting priorities to other plants. Nice pineapple smell and flavor. Definitely not a bedtime smoke. Great for treating chronic fatigue. Acid Dough continues to be my favorite.0
