Due to my water issues in hydro, and because I want to smoke something before the end of the world ^^, I choose to grow some purple queen automatic from Royal queen seed during the time I find the problem with my water. I have two 11l pot, remnant from previous grow with family. I guess (and hope) that soil will be less problematic than hydro. Now I have 2 hydro bucket and 2 soil pot.
Today, meanwhile my seeds germinating, I prepared my soil with Easy Boost from RQS, And I will try the easy combo when the seeds will be in the soil. I can't wait to see the girls growing.
Yesterday I put the germinated seeds in the soil, I hope they will grow.
The seeds was too long to go out, I put them to re-germinate in easy start from RQS and it's good, I will put the taller in a little pot today and the 2nd in few days. Then I wxill put them in the final pot .
The plants are growing well in the soil, I will put them in the final pot today
Yesterday, I transplant my seeds to little pot for few days, to let the roots grow. After that, the plants will go in the final pot.
Week 2, there is one plant smaller than the other one, but she's growing pretty well too (she has had a little bit of difficulties to germinate and loose her shell). they're both growing up very well. I added very few nutes in the water on the last watering, but I forgot roots stimulant (not very necessary, they developed some nice roots in the little pot), maybe I will put some on the next nutes watering.
05/08 I watered today, I put some roots stimulants today, but no other nutes.
07/08 the plants take a big boost tonight, I'm pretty impressed. I have one plant smaller than the other, but she takes a boost too.
09/08 En of the week, I will water this evening (4 days from the last watering) with nutrients (light doses). I'm pretty happy about their growth. This strain is very cool to cultivate, and easy, a real pleasure to see her growing.
Week 3, they grow very well, watered yesterday, I'm happy. One of the plant make 14 cm and the other 7 cm (she is slower but she grow well too)
Pretty hot since 2/3 days, the purple queen in soil have not suffered much, they grow pretty well.
Watered today (14/08/2020), they suffered a bit of the heat. A real pleasure to see them grow, really strong and pretty quick.
week 4, watered yesterday, just water. The growth continues pretty well, I defoliate today to give light to my future buds. The taller one start her preflowering stage, I'm really happy.
Defoliation today, she seems to like it, and it's nicer to look the future buds without to move all the leaves. I added some eggs shell crushed to the soil.
The taller one have started her flowering 2 days ago, I'm still waiting for the smaller one, but it's just a matter of patience. I'm really happy of their growth, I hope they will gave a nice yield. I will water the evening or tomorrow with few nutes this time. I don't put too much nutes because there is Easy Bosst from RQS in the soil and it seems to be nice to them.
Watered today, with some nutrients (the smaller one is in preflo so I put less nutes : Flora Gro 1.5ml/l; Flora Micro 1.5ml/l; Flora Bloom 1.4ml/l). I carry on the defoliation on the taller one, on the top to give light on all buds on the top.
As the flowering stage carry on for the taller one, she begin to be more and more thirsty, so I put some water today. I will see toworrow if I have to water again tomorrow.
Week 2 of flowering for the bigger plant, and start of the flowering for the smaller one. they begins to drink more and more, I water every 2/3 days now. I really love this strain, it's very pleasant to grow. they have very good reactions to the defoliation. The smaller plant have 28 cm of height.
The smaller one tooke 2cm, now she is 30 cm height. She is slower than the talle, slowly but surely. I waterd yesterday with tap water (24H decanted) in the big plant, and water with nutes in the small, to see if she could caught a bit the smaller.
The smaller one start her flowering very slowly, but the taller one is really nice. I 've watered them today because the big one was thirsty, I put nutes today.
The smallest is very slow to make her flowering stage. I put some nute 1 time on 2, but she's slowly. The tallest develops beautfiful buds (it's the beggining, I guess these buds will be bigger) This starin is very pleasant to grow, I lov
The little one took 5 cm, now she is 45 cm, she grow pistils tonight, I put preflo stage nutes dose and she is happy, I guess I should have stayed on the preflo stage longer. I think I will carry on like this until I have some little true buds. Actually the great one drink every 2 days, the tiny one drink every 3 days.
The little one begins to develop her calixes, finally, I'm happy.
I would to know why the smaller plant is very slow like this. She's still in preflowering stage, There is something I can do ? I put some nutes of pre flowering stage today in my water. I have pistils but it stay on this stage from few days.
Don't rush things. It could just be a different pheno that takes longer. You can easily burn or stunt her by overdoing the nutrients. Give her some time and maybe even ph'd water and she'll have started to show you what's going on. I honestly believe it could be a different pheno. 👊
7th week, the little one carry on the development of her calixes, the other one make some nice buds. I'm really happy and can't wait to smoke this :p .
All is alright in my box, the buds are getting bigger each days and gain in THC, it's very beautiful. I very love this strain from RQS, pretty strong and easy to grow. Their nutes are amazing too, and easy to use.
End of the 7th week, the flowering continu pretty well, I have some nice buds on each branch, I watered all of that today, now I just have to wait for the cut. I have to buy a microscope to see the state of my trichomes. I don't want to have too much amber, I search a wide range of effects, not just sedative effect. I'm really happy of this strain.
Week 8, all is normal, I think I will cut my plants in 2 step, to give more time to the buds below to get them bigger and stronger in THC.
Week 8, 4th week of flowering. Everything is good, the "little one" is now taller than the other one, she begin to make nice calixes, there is some iteresting colas. now she drink every 2 days. Next time I will stop the FloraGro. In regards to the one in flowering, she make beautiful buds on each branch, I think I will cut in 2 step to give more flowering time to the buds below.
The slower one begins to be very beautiful, nice colas and in a good health, the other one have a cool layer of thc on it, I will check the trichomes on the microscope to assess the right moment to cut.
Hey guys I'm back, sorry for the late late this week, I was in Amsterdam ^^. My family took care of my plants so they are good, I bought a microscope and now I can tell that all my trichomes are milky and cloudy on the flowering one. The other one continue to develop nice colas, I will have nice buds I think, surely the same than the other one. I'm waiting a little bit to have some ambers trichomes to cut (even if I want to cut now ^^). I want them to have a large wide of effects (sedative and others). The next strain will be Hulberry or green gelato auto from RQS I guess.
I had 192 G before the manicure and 142g after. I hope (but Im pretty sure) that the other one will have a very nice yield too. It's a really good strain, with a good genetic. I thanks ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS for the seeds and all the things they gave to me, as the nutes on the soil, very good and simple to use. I just have to wait for the cut on the other one. Today I cut just the bigger buds to let the others get bigger. I made her dry on a cardboard box with a PC fan on the top and few aperture for the extraction of the air. I will check often.
Nearly 24h of drying, some parts of the buds are already smokable (the upper part, so in the box they are on the bottom). I just try a little stick and this is a really good strain to smoke.
33g dry, today I made the second stage of the cut. I will manicure and put to drying.
On the second plant I had 152g wet.
Final weighing, my girls made 117G in total with the 3 plants.
