Feed every third water. 2L each time Every 2-3 days watering Lights are set to 12/12 and these plants are 50 days old in veg, all showing preflowers so should be a good ride!

Not much to update quite a slow transition. Day 9 of 12/12 and just noticing some pistils so day 1 of flower. All going well cannalope is drink more than the acapulco golds and stretching more but have heard that the AG can be slow to get going. Introduced mammoth P as got some free samples, have heard good things about quality increase and mixed reviews on yield increases some favourable some not. Will do a proper side by side next grow. Have set the Mars hydro to full flower spectrum now so interested to see how plants respond. 22/3/18 day 6 Stretching Well filling canopy nicely, trying really hard to keep It level this time. Got a lot of tops tho! Does anyone find vegging to preflower reduces stretch? Never grown these strains before but have had much more stretch off of indica hybrids just wondering if vegging to preflower this time an limit stretch. These girls still got a couple weeks stretch left going to continue training and supercropping when screen is full.

Day 9 of flower all is going well. Filled the screen nicely and developed a nice structure. Notice quite long internodes on AG 1 and this plant definitely drinks less than the others. The Cannalope kush has stretched into something nice. Plants will be getting a top dress of bat guano when they get Watered/fed. 29/3 day 13 Stretch really slowing, canopy filled out just they way I hoped time for the real show to start 4/4/18 day 19 Have been trying to update but app keeps crashing?

Slow update was having some trouble with the app crashing 7/4/18 day 22 Everything going well, full autopilot mode. Still tucking leaves here and there but other than feeding and watering it'sa comfy ride atm Acapulco gold 2 developing a particularly sweet aroma and is already greasy to touch 9/4/18 day 24 Really starting to notice some aromas coming through, the Acapulco Gold 2 plant really pumping out some flavours a real spice when rubbed. The first AG pheno does not. Seem to be as resinous or odourous but the structure is very much the same, seems to much greener plant Cannalope kush starting to put out a nice layer of trichomes but a much clearer sativa structure in the buds which appear more airy.

16/4/18 day 31 Really progressing nicely AG 2 was looking a little hungry hut she got a feed so she how she responds Other than that no issues All swelling nicely and the smells off all are amazing, sweet citrus fresh Acapulco gold 2 has quite my eye in particular so have taken a cutting to try to veg if not I have seen a technique to trim all but a few lowers off at harvest and reveg this Plants seemed to be well developed, very pleased with the progress 20/4/18 day 35 All still progressing nice Small issue with AG 2, just looking a little pale so was given a dose of biogrow and 1ml/L as this is only around the midway point still plenty of time left it's too early for the fade haha Will be interested to see gpw at end, have hit around 0.3-0.4 in last grows so this will be a good baseline for on how the mammoth p performs but I will be running a side by side on cloned plants to confirm

22/4/18 day 37 Still plodding along Pk boost has now stopped and will be slowly tapering off nutes as these girls finish up, defo stacking day by day and smell of all is getting there Cannalope kush stinks of sugar! Like pineappley type aroma AG 1 sweet aswell but more citrus AG 2 the real gas, trying to get a clone revegged, should have just taken one before 25/4/18 day 40 Ripening nicely on day 40 Acapulco golds have definitely slowed down drinking, just waiting to ripen and do I hope they swell some more, buds are looking nice already! Some nice colours starting to come through and the second AG pheno is stinking! Cannalope Kush developing nicely too, seems further behind but we'll see what happens in the next few weeks

28/4/18 day 43 Think these girls are closer to finishing than I expected, have actually been under 12/12 for 52 days but I called flowering day 1 from day 9 when I really started to see pistils Lots of cloudy trichs, AG 2 actually pushing out some amber's, ay first I thought she might be hungry with around 3 weeks to go now I think she's just fading, she was due a feed today anyway and both AG plants are pushing out nice colours and aromas Cannalope kush really been swelling the past few days Really looking forward to this harvest Flush starts next week

1/5/18 day 46/55 Flush mode! Plants have been under 12/12 55 days, I count 46 days of flowering but this was also my first time vegging to preflowers so these girls must have turned much faster than what I'm used to Acapulco golds all cloudy just getting some amber's starting to show some real nice colours and a very nice spice fragrance coming off then, swelled well and some nice nugs in there. Cannalope kush a little further behind but getting there, trichs are all cloudy so even if she gets chopped a little early it won't be too detrimental just hoping for abit more swell Really pleased with this run so far and interested to see what mammoth p has done for yield and quality, running a side by side comparison next grow

Will update when buds are dry, looks and smells like a nice harvest, some real nice tops in there Managed to keep the canopy nice and even this time around Nice spicy smell, well formed bud Fairly high leaf to calyx ratio pheno so more trim job on this one but a nice plant, responds well to scrog techniques and found it recovered well from HST techniques such as supercropping

Nice smooth smoke, bit of spice to it, sure more will be revealed as it cures and flavours develop.

2 different phenos AG 1 looks to be more of a yielder but suffers in Trichome density and pungency AG 2 better Trichome coverage, stickier Both have similar structure, fairly short internode, responded well to training techniques High calyx to leaf ratio should be nice and easy to trim up

@Manic4organic Beautiful. Simply beautiful. I so want to believe we can grow a true 100% sativa, but I have doubts. Your AG leaves appear to display the typical indica trait of wide leaflets. Can’t wait to hear your review of the effect, which is our ‘end product’, is it not? Btw, back in the day at Mexican harvest, farmers would leash an iguana to the trim table. They smoked as they trimmed. When the iguana passed out, the work day was over.

i keep seeing 12/12 from seed not sure whats wrong with growdiaries is defaulting everyone to 12/12 from seed?

Thanks, looking to be a nice harvest so farInteresting for you to say about the indica dominant traits as these particular phenos seemed to flower quite fast, think this breeder has done really well on stabilising some beneficial indica traits into this strain
