The Journey Begins

NattyMeds Hey all thanks for tuning into the Malibu Pie grow :) for now I will share the way I like to germinate and will upload when these beans pop out of soil. Im germinating straight into Fox Farms Happy frog soil. (no pre-soak or paper towel method) it already has various strains of mycorrhizae, I did end up sprinkling great white in each hole that I poked with the tip of a pen. Dropped my seeds in, pinched over soil Misted the topsoil with a rhizotonic and watered with ph'd water, including a light dose of liquid seaweed extract. ---------------------------- I have them sitting under a Mars Hydro TS1000 on FULL DIM. I know the light is not needed but it keeps the tent a touch warmer. Im expecting to see signs of these guys in about 3 days. -August 18th --------------------------- All seeds have sprouted - August 21st --------------------------- We will officially declare August 24th, Day 1 :) Malibu #3 unfortunately just died for no apparent reason but we still have 4 strong (hopefully ladies) left I did order farmer freeman tests for the sex testing so we should know how many females we have soon. Im gonna feed seaweed extract for at least another week. Nothing with significant NPK ratios

NattyMeds Today is Day 11 -September 3 These Malibus are getting DNA tested right away through farmer freeman. $15 per test with my limited space this is well worth because I need to plan what size pots and scrog/SOG if necessary. -------------- Sex test: Results Sample # Result (EZ-XY Sex Test) XY27395 F XY27396 F XY27397 M XY27398 M XY27399 F I had 3 Females. one was mutated, decided to keep 2.

NattyMeds What can I say im a terrible journalist 😐 Nonetheless I wanted to still share these harvest day pictures of Malibu Pie. Incredible strain. starting with its life thru veg no complaints, easy growing, seemed like it stays small due to predominately indica traits. Initiating flowering MP2 the "lanky" pheno stretched decently with nice long colas. MP1 pheno did not stretch at all and ended up growing some hammers. Super dense buds on both phenos. Traits/ Characteristics MP1: absolute minimal, to none, stretch. Middle of flower smells were piney and "appley" Mature smell is reminiscent of tropical Pina colada, pineapple, very sweet. Super compact, short, dense buds that grow like baseballs leaf fade: almost black MP2: decent stretch. Middle of flower smells were undoubtedly minty, and rosemary Mature smell little bit of sweetness, some tropical, yet very minto rosemary like essential oils. Long flowers, almost stretchy, top colas dense, lowers a bit more wispy leaf fade: yellow, pink, red, purple. both harvested day 61, very fast maturing indica dominate hybrids with amazing terps. Indica lovers who want a buzz that will make you comfortable just about anywhere, yet creative this ones for you! Don't sleep on Malibu Pie!! ______________________________ Also I flowered this with my brand new light from mars hydro SP 3000. there's a PAR test on YouTube. this light bangs out 4x2 area with 800ppfd average across canopy @ 19.5 inch height. 10/10 stars from Marshydro strongly recommend. I FINALLY GROW ROCK HARD DENSE BUDS HAHA
