Here we got another pheno hunting session! This time one on the tasty lemon cream kush by Spliff seeds. We will be running 5 beans to see what we can mustard up. Knowing the breeder well... I'm confident I'll find a keeper outta just a lot of 5. That being said I'll keep my favorite cut, and probably roll the dice again with one more wave. We shall see.
I'm looking for density, bud formation/structure, trichome coverage, depth in the terpene pallet, and strong rich aromas! I will sacrifice a touch(nothing major) in the yield department. If the pheno checks all my boxes stated above. I'm looking for a stand out "keeper" that clearly shines over the rest. Of course vigor plays a major factor as well.
We kicked the hunt off by pre moistening our root plugs. Than increasing the size of the hole in the plugs. Than sowing our 5 beans into the holes. Than covering the holes up with a piece from the corner of the plugs. Those plugs than went into our misted humidity dome at 85 %rh.
In roughly 4 days we should have new life, and sprouts in our propagation dome.
We will start a new week once we have our seedlings. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 1
After a mere 3 days of germination time, these ladies exploded to the surface. Showing their cotlydon leaves and beginning their adventures.
All five seamlessly sprouted together like it was all on que.
We got them sowed into 1 gallon square pots. We filled those pots with sunshine mix #4. We moistened the sunshine with 500ml of ph balanced water to 6.4 . Than we got them into their new home.... under the led panel.
Time to rock and roll. These ladies will go through about 4 days of heavy rooting. Than we will see an increase in action above the medium. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 2
These little girls are really looking spunky! Real nice green and really responding well to our light height and intensity. Its 22 degrees 67%rh currently with lights off. We are dropping that down as I type to hit around 63% . Slowly going to taper em into around 55% rh. Over the course of around a week.
Alls rolling along great! Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 3
All these ladies are hard at work rooting. Some have fattened up their single bladed leaves. Well others completely fixate on rooting. We are nearing the end of the major rooting period. We should see an increase to above medium growth volume VERY soon.
Their pots are drying up and are getting very light. So tonight we will be giving them a watering and their first nutritional taste. We will be giving them 1ml per liter armor si, and 1ml per liter bio root. That will kick off their nutrient program. Let's rock and roll!
Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 5
I did a check day 3 night and the ladies still had fluids. I really want to encourage a good wet to dry cycle! Decided to hold back on watering. I watered today instead using the charted feeding. Each lady received 500ml again.
Ladies seem to be switching there focus more to the foliage now. The daggers are getting bigger on some of the seedlings! Perty PERTY!
Sure they will be stacking nodes in no time!
It's currently 22 degrees celcius 63% rh at lights off.
Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 6
These ladies are really looking green, vibrant, and healthy. They have all got to work on a new set of leaves. They are picking up their strength and vigor. With some solid footing cannabis seedlings can really explode and take off! It's time for lift off fam!
Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 7
These girls are really going to town now. Growth above the medium has been increasing for the past few days. They all are starting to stack nodes and we should be seeing some 3 bladed leaves soon.
We lowered the light 6 inches to give a tiny boost. We updated the chart to reflect that. They enjoyed it all lights on today so that's where itll stay for now. We are off to a great start. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam
Day 8
These ladies are growing strong! Tiniest bit of stretch but no worry. They are getting to work on some new foliage and fattening the old. Poured a touch too much water it would seem last watering. We will adjust but no biggy either... minor response. If not adjusted it could end up to be a big deal though! Always adjust to the response of ur plant. Or matters will extrapolate.
Nice green and vibrant seedlings. On to another day! Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 10
Was super busy yesterday so didnt get a chance to update unfortunately. These girls have really shot up and threw off some foliage!
They are booming with growth and man... what a change in such little time. These are going to be some strong ladies. Letting em dry off some more before I water em again. Really trying to extend my cycles!
Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 12
They are nice and dry now! Tonight I will give them a watering of 1ml per liter armor si ph balanced to 6.4. Solid growth outta all of them, as they stack nodes and fatten foliage. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 13
Didnt water last night. Let them go another day and extend the cycle. I watered today with 1ml per liter armor si ph balanced to 6.4 ladies are doing great. Going to start up some training soon and probably top em all. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 14
Ladies are booming along! Watering yesterday teated em great. No progressing signs of too much water. Signs were minuscule but none the less apparent. We got that fixed up right quick.
Their foliage continues to explode. Strength has been found... and boy are they reaching deep. We lowered our lights 4 inches to support this greater boom in growth. The chart has been updated to reflect this change.Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 15
Girls are killing it in here! Starting to really fill out. We are going to top them all when they get a couple more nodes. Than some light lst work once branches boom...and that's it that's all. Really fast working heavy vigor variety. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Day 16
These ladies are blowing up fam! Strong ones they are. Gunna have to get to work on em. Than relocate asap. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
Excuse the grow light on shots... it's just for this week as I'm very busy. We lolipoped these ladies getting rid of the lower branches we never keep anyways. Figured get rid of em early this time and not waste any energy towards that growth. They seemed unphased by it and continued growth almost immediately.
Could have kept em for cuts but they will be booming with growth soon regardless. Got them re located into bigger space and under the hps grow light. Until next update happy growing and stay lit fam.
