Day -4: Put into shot glass of water.
Day -3: Tap root showing
Day -2: Put into Jiffy pellet
Day -1: I hate this part. I truly hate this part about growing weed.
Day 0: Why do you take so long? Seriously, I hate this part.
Day 1 - 8/22: Yay! Growing weed is awesome again!
I mixed 1 gallon of the above, but only gave this guy like 10ml of it a day. Obviously they don't need much at this time, but she took it like a champ!
There is no stopping this little lady. Growing hard, fast... and getting thicc. The fans leaves are really big... way larger than the Gorilla Glue. I am looking forward to this grow. 100% Advanced Nutrients from the start, and I can already see a major impovment from my last grow.
The pot is only a 2 gallon. I have 4 more germinating that I am going to throw into 3 gallons, so we are just playing around here. I am really hopping to achieve a nice ScrOG. We'll see!
She's already drinking 3 cups of water daily.
She be thicc, ya'll. Thicc.
Eats 3 cups a day. Nute mix is 6.2 going in, 6.3 coming out. She couldn't be happier.
Fat ass fan leaves, though. Like... fat.
----------------------
9/11 - LSTing turned into HST - all is good - it was a happy accident. I bent her a bit too much and she snapped, but I supported her and she fixed herself. Power also went out, had to use the sun... turns out that works, too.
9/12 - Back in the tent, LST'd a tiny bit more and she is spread pretty nicely. Took 2 or 3 really big fan leaves off... they were blocking so many nodes - it had to be done. Her 2 sisters are joining the tent soon.
Things are going great. She's mainlined fairly well for my first time trying it. It's not like the pros, but she's bent to the ground and her stems are growing properly! All the accidental HST paid off and she has 85% healed entirely. The knots she's gonna have are gonna be huge.
9/18 - Day 24: Took at least 8 large fan leaves off. Baby pistils are showing. Crazy how quick this one is happening.
Everything is going really well. I am now following a strict EC guideline and it's truly helped me not fuck up the plants at all, thus far. **fingers crossed**
The addition to Fish Sh!t has only made things wonderful. From my understanding it just allows the roots to, in essence, eat what they need - vs - being fed what you get. So far, I can't argue.

9/26 - Day 35: Slight light burn - nothing major at all. Moved lights and used "Korona", a light PPFD app, and placed everything a little better.
9/28 - Day 37: All is good, shit's be growing like crazy. Trellis netting is amazing.

9/28 - Day 37: All is good, the little shits are growing like crazy. Also, my first time using trellis netting and it's amazing. It's LST without the wires and I can do kind-of a ScRoG (not a literal one) by having the stems grow out horizontally for a period of time. Really cool!

10/5 - Day 44: Things are good. Trellis netting is working and I'm spreading the canopy pretty well. We'll see what happens! I would recommended against the actual net I purchased, this shit is bulky, big and too stretchy.
Holy fuckin' shit this strain from ILGM is a pain in the dick.
AK47 auto.
VERY sensitive to light... my lamp is HIGH AS FUCK - things are balancing themselves out...finally. I caught it all relatively early, using a minor PAR app (can't afford 600$ for a real one) but god damn it has been a nightmare to grow.
VERY SNENSITIVE TO NUTES... I have had to tone it back quite a bit. I tend to push EC to 2 sometimes, but god daaaayuuum this bitch, along with the light stress (minor) just turned her fickle. Got ner good now. pH was never an issue, but run-off EC was high towards the end of last week.
Powdery Mildew... WHY THE FUCK NOT. Had to move all the plants out, fix and clean and put 'em back in. I got it 100% controlled at this point... BUT COME ON.. What's next?
Positives, losta trichomes for all the issues. Looking forward to the next grow... so I can put this behind me!

Got a brand new spanking BP300, by Bloom LED. It's killin' it. Much brighter and Full Spectrum.
Had a few issues, this AK47 is just sensitive, but by the end of this week... she'll be chonking up nice.

Week 5 of Bloom - Week 9 Total
EC Target
1300– 1600
ph: 6.05 - 6.52
Advanced has a tendency to give VERY high EC levels if you follow their guideline. I use what they recommend and then I tone it down to the EC levels I want. Just a heads up if you are using Advanced and not checking - you are WASTING nutes.

They are so sticky. Trichomes are everywhere.
Cruise control, no issues. This BP3000 by BloomLED is doing fantastic.

Smaller harvest due to the smaller 2 gallon pot I used. The other grows are looking much bulkier. This was very sticky and stanky. We shall see what happens after the cure! ILGM still does good things, but this grow was very finicky.
