EL DORADO OG - Paradise Seeds

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm El Dorado OG Dom. Indica 🕘: 8/9 weeks Final container: 7L and solo cup Substrate: Biobizz light-mix + Mykoriza Organics Nutrients Fertilizers: Madame Grow range for #1 and #2 Biobizz range for solo cup 100% germination in 24/36h then planted and all three came out simultaneously 24h later. First feeding during the next watering, tomorrow.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm It's growing normally with the solo cup, which is a bit ahead. The other two have started to recover from the transplant from the starter cup to the 0.5L cup. I'm going to leave them in those for 2 weeks, then final pot to finish the vegetation and start their flowering. Day 14, all 3 are doing very well.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm The 2 are doing very well and the solo cup is going to be gorgeous. I added some Lacalva Stress to both so I can transplant them into their final container. I'll do it in 3 or 4 days. The solo cup has really puffed up since I switched it to Biobizz. 👌😋 🤘😝 Finally ready for repotting, I did it 2 days earlier than planned in Gold Label mix light substrate + Mykoriza and Big Plant (Organics Nutrients) + Biogrow (Green House feeding) Ready to finish their Veg peacefully. 👍😋

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Everything is going well, #1 and #2 don't seem to have suffered from repotting and are starting to grow their branches. The solo cup is doing very well and producing nice, vigorous branch starts. 👌👍😜 Day 28, #1 was starting to gain height compared to the others, but has hardly any branch starts for its current size. So, I pinched it at 30cm to encourage it to develop its side branches rather than the stem. #2, like the others in the cabinet, are smaller with more branch starts; I'll let them develop as they are with a bit of defoliation to thin them out.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm #1=>40cm #2=>31cm Everything is going great. #1 has sprouted its branches and is still gaining height. As for #2, its branches should start developing soon.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Day 37, switched to 12/12 for all my girls. Day 39, I did a defoliation of the sensors and removed the smallest branches from the bottom. Added Sweet Lolita to the feeding and applied Flower Karma as a foliar spray. Dose of Calgreen from METROP to address the risk of calcium deficiency for the rest of the flowering stage.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Day 44, ↕️#1=>69cm ↕️#2=>46cm Both are pushing towards the end of pre-flowering. So I gave them one last clean-up before they hit full flowering, keeping only their strongest branches. Day 48, ↕️#1=>85cm ↕️#2=>55cm They moved into full flowering last night. I can see the beginnings of flowers since this morning; it's clearly visible on #2, but #1 is also in the race. I moved them to the 4th week of Madame Grow's feeding schedule => reducing the growth accelerator and Caribbean algae and adding the Jamaican bloom.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Day 52, big hermaphroditism problem with the 2 El Dorado OG. So I removed all the branches with the most male flowers, and I took off the isolated buds with tweezers. Last foliar spray with Flower Karma this week. And last feeding with Massive Bloom PK-50/33, then I’ll switch to PK-13/14 after a watering with just Madame Grow. The flowers should be big enough for that. Day 56, the flowers are doing well. I haven't seen any new signs of male flowers. I gave them all an extra watering with PK 50/33, the next one will only be with Madame Grow.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm The two Eldorado are slowly progressing with the hermaphroditism issue that I had to address, but they're starting to get back on track. I hope to be able to add the 13/14 soon. I think in 1 or 2 waterings. Stay tuned... Day 68, both have moved to week 7 of the Madame Grow program => adding the Bazooka Bloom. I will be able to add the 13/14 Hesi at the next watering.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Day 75, both are starting to take their first shapes, some calyxes are nicely swollen and a bit of purple marks some of their tips. I've increased their PK-13/14 supply.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Both are doing very well, with a slight lead for #2, which is starting to produce nice, plump calyxes. #1 has slightly turned white at the tip, probably because it's a bit close to the lamp.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Both are doing great. #1 is producing very similar flowers from top to bottom, with consistent growth throughout the plant. #2 is developing very nice buds that start more from the bottom of the plant. The middle of the plant has lovely clusters of tightly packed calyxes in a pyramid shape, which give a nice volume to the flowers. It's not finished yet; a few more weeks to go.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm Both are nearing the end; last feeding for them, then clear water before harvest.. Both are beautiful, but #2 shows some nice well-developed flowers that will form a magnificent cola. I'm going to have to battle humidity with these two, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that there won't be any issues.

WILLIAMSII_Fr_Farm I really thought they would give me a hard time at the end of flowering. Both produced beautiful, very compact flowers, and I thought they would be affected by the humidity in my apartment. Instead, I was able to see the great resistance to excess humidity and mold of the El Dorado OG; I'm almost amazed. Their VEG went without any problems. It was during the transition to FLOW that I noticed a slight tendency towards hermaphroditism (which I imagine will be stabilized soon) that I was easily able to manage by removing the most affected branches and the first male clusters that appeared here and there. This way, I was able to contain the problem. So, it's a plant that's easily manageable and influenceable, making it a good candidate for heavy LST or main-lining. It shouldn't pose too many problems. Other than that, nothing to say. No special requests; it's a plant that will delight younger growers (as long as you don't have that little hermaphroditism issue, of course) just like the older ones who will know how to have fun with it and reap the best benefits. Beautiful, very resilient strain, coming from Paradise Seeds.
