Hello again!
Feels nice to come back and start a new diary here. The last ones were my first experience indoors and went great, now I feel super motivated to start a new grow. And this time I'm going for 4 different strains, hoping for great results, and a wide variety of flavours and colors to enjoy during this journey and after, when everything is cropped and ready to smoke. I'm going again for autos as my choice of seed, things are fast and keep me happy, production is enough for my needs so, no change here for now.
Going for this strain because I tried it's a classic of cannabis, I grew it before outdoors from other breeders and wanna see how this freebie behaves inside the tent in a more controlled environment.
Again, I'll be using BioBizz nutrients, and Lumatek bulbs. The difference is that now I'll use a MH for veg, that I didn't had in the last grow. Looking forward then to see better results on flowering as the light spectrum should provide better light to them.
With no more talk, here's the fact sheet for this week
Day 1 to 7 - 09/8 - 15/8
General:
Soaked the seed in water 24h, kept it in the dark for all that time. Transferred to pot and been spraying with water since then. Humidifier is on to keep RH on 70%. Now it's waiting time until it's out.
Techniques:
Nothing yet.
Feeding:
Spraying with water, to keep the soil moist in the seed location. nothing more.
Smell:
Too soon.
Temps and RH:
25c - 19c (24 average)
72% - 43% (62% average)
Pests and plagues:
Nothing to record.
Day 8 to 14 - 16/8 - 22/8
General:
She, together with the Bubblegum, are the oldest and healthier plants. She really surprised me. Happy with the development but very worried with the temps. I have a MH 400w and it's going super hot in the grow, with a quite nice extractor. Again, summer this year isn't helping at all and I had major life changes that kinda reduce my time drastically to take care of my babies. Even with humidifier on I can't get RH over 45% with lights on and that worries me now that I'm away 12h from home having no control during that time. Anyways, the plant looks great to start with and it's still a long way to go until this becomes something ehehe the most important is that grows healthy and juicy. All about big buds and bold flavors. Love the morning smell of burping pots 😍 That's all for now guys, Wish you're having as much fun as I do, feels great to be back 😅

Day 22 to 28 - 31/8 - 6/9
General:
Taking her time to grow. MH bulbs are making a difference on the development. Can't say I'm amazed, but surely made a difference. and warmer climate. too much I'd say.
reminder: still only my second indoor grow, all my experience is from outdoor growing. Doesn't differ too much, like it ain't turnips or cabbage suddenly. Still weed, in different conditions. Better ones. Start to feel the need for new nutrients, been using only Biobizz and wanna compare results.

General:
She's looking healthy, but it's a dwarf in a 18l pot, shorter than expected. By this time wanted to have a way bigger plant. Maybe will stretch a bit more this week. Like to see the pistils showing and so easy to capture with the phone
Techniques:
LST
Feeding:
water, with co2 tabs daily. feeding with nutes twice a week.
Smell:
Early stinky lady. quite surprising, especially for the size of hers.

90% - 10% (30% average)

first time growing this strain, never had such a small plant in a 18L pot.
She smells amazing, looks fine, but way too small.
Didn't really used many nutes, or spent time around her, but on the other hand the northern lights next to her is doing great.
Any thoughts?
Hi Gourmet,
I think that the lst on week 3 has been a bit too hard and stressful as the plant wasn't strong enough and that 's it's an autoflo with less time to recover from anything before floration starts. The whole plant's trunk was bended and there might have been roots issues.
In this case, I think it would have been better to slightly train the fan leaves.
According to your diaries, temperature and humidity didn't help at all if they didn't do worse.
Good luck with your other plants.

Cut some fan leaves here and there to maximize exposure.

This batch of seedsman was a disappointment in general. first all the 10 sweet mango didn't germinate, then from all freebies all I got is a stunted plant (this one) and a NL that's going great.
Lesson learned, will cultivate more "mainstream" strains as they seem to be fresher and easier to grow.
Back to this one, hope at least the smoke is good, as I always loved amnesia.
Wondering about the outcome if she didn't stressed, as the smell, the trichomes, all looks very nice.
Waiting for it to finish drying and cure a little before do the smoke report.
