*TC* created my own feminized strain!!!

So this is a seed that I feminized using 2 bag seeds that were both unique in their own ways.. This was my first try with collidial silver and it went great. Used the pollen from a very colorful strain and pollenated my Krakty Method FAIL plant.. These were the first 10 or so seeds harvested. I'm still waiting on the 2nd pollination to ripen at this moment.. So.. She will be growing in coco/perlite in some random, empty bucket of butter I found lol.. Inside of a suitcase I rigged up with 2 small computer fans. One for exhaust and one to move air inside the suitcase.. (2) 26 watt E27 LED bulbs and (1) 18 watt E27 LED bulb in the middle of the (2) 26 watt at about 6 - 10 inches away.. Depending on the size of the plant.. About 10 inches away since shes just a baby!.. And wrapped the inside with foil (yeah, people hate on foil.. But I've used this for 2 years and with such weak bulbs, I'm sure it's not gonna hurt anything).. I will be changing the lights to 18/6 eother sometime this week or beginning of next week.. Not sure when just yet.. Kinda hard to reach the timer at the moment lol.. But I probably will in the next couple days.. If not.. FOR SURE NEXT WEEK.. I'm going to top, mainline and train the shit out of this plant to make her fit and use every square inch of her home as I can. Like I said, I've been using this entire setup for 2 years and I think it's time I share one of these grows with you guys! Anyways.. Enjoy!!!... Beginning of week.. Havent given her any nutes yet.. She should be fine for at least a week without any nutes.. But I will see what I can do.. And havent figured out how I'd like to do that just yet.. But you guys will find out the moment I do! Anyways.. Another star is born!!! 🌟🌟🌟 Mid week.. Still have not given her any nutrients.. Or even turned the lights to 18/6.. Gonna swap the lights starting tonight.. So tonight will be her first night of rest! Some say you can 24/0 in veg but when you give them 18/6, you clearly see the leaves kinda raise up in the AM and kinda lower in the PM.. Especially if you watch some time lapses of cannabis in veg with 18/6.. Idk about the whole "roots only grow at night" thing tho.. Cuz if that was the case, then 24/0 wouldn't work at all.. But I like vegging at 18/6.. I even do my autoflowers 18/6.. I may try 20/4 with an auto one day... But that's for a whole different diary! Anyways.. Beginning of next week I will introduce a tiny bit of nutes just to avoid any stress of growth stunting.. She is a happy and healthy girl (better be).. I better not have wasted my time trying to feminize some seeds and they don't even come out female.. Even if they hermie a little, I'll still be happy.. It was just a practice run with the CS feminizing method! I want to use the method to self pollinate and cross some ETHOS!!! End of week.. Keeping this little bs light setup this close is doing a great job of keeping her from stetching.. I love this little nano grow box I built. Some EXTREME training and mainlining (leaving only 2 branches) and she will fill out the entire setup.. No nutes yet.. Will start with just a touch of CalMag and Micro for the first weeks feeding.. Then throw in a little Grow the following week.

Beginning of week.. I went ahead and introduced some nutes.. .2mL/L of Armor Si (Silica).. .5mL/L of CalMag.. .5mL/L of Flora Micro and .20mL/L of Flora Grow.. She is growing nice and quickly.. I love growing in coco coir/perlite.. But she is just doing her thing.. Still psyched that I created my own feminized strain!!! *From 2 bag seeds* Later.. I love being able to use these little cheap LEDs and the girls love it too!!! I'm only using (1)26 watt and (1)18 watt so far and no stretching at all! Not even a little lol.. That's how I like 'em.. Especially since she's gonna be in a nano grow box.. Just wait till she's big enough for all the training I'm gonna do.. It gets very pretty imo lol Mid week.. I just ordered some sunlike bulbs to replace the blurple.. But I think im going to leave 1 still.. Cuz the sunlike bulb doesnt contain any blues or reds.. I guess it would be better to use the extra blurple in flower.. We will see.. They come in tomo so my next update will show the setup.. But she is doing great! No signs of stress whatsoever.. No lack of nutes.. No excess of nutes.. No light burn.. No stretching.. No heat issues even tho it gets up to 88F.. She is growing quickly and is even beginning to sprout her branches! She's happy, I'm happy.. Cant wait to see what my creation creates! Lol Bulb update.. Fucking Amazon.. Supposed to be here today.. They done lost my shit. Smh.. It was right up the road.. All it says is "departed from right up the road".. Been saying that for 2 days! It could've been here 2 days ago.. They sent it across the country, I bet.. Ugh! 1 day after Mid Week.. Wow those sprouted branches are coming in quick. I planted a seed 1 week before this one outside just for the hell of it (I have ALOT of other feminized bag seeds) and this one is already 3x bigger and much more vegetation. But to be fsir its been a little rainy and cloudy for the last 5 days or so.. But this girl is doin the damn thing!!! End of week.. Welp.. I went ahead and removed the bottom leaves and branches.. For some dumbass reason.. And topped her.. I should have let her grow a little more before topping and regret removing the bottom leaves and branches.. But what's done is done.. She will still go on to do amazing things.. Just watch! I got my new bulbs in finally! Glad they didn't end up in Bumfuck, Egypt lol.. So they are 2 sunlike (only warm white 3500K) bulbs.. They says 30 watt equivalent but only uses about 7.5 watts or so.. I removed 1 of the full spectrum bulbs and noticed about 1/4 of the lights burned out.. They lasted 2 years.. So I guess NOT BAD lol.. But I kept one of the full spectrum bulbs in the middle and added the 2 sunlike on the outside (see end of week pics).. Seems legit asf lol.. This AM the plant was praying like a Hindi! No offense.. Just saying that they pray alot lol.. And so does she.. I shouldn't have topped till mid or late next week.. But meh.. She will make it! She is super happy and super healthy! On to the next...

Beginning of week.. A bit early, but I did go ahead and top her and removed the first set of leaves and branches.. Those usually arent the greatest branches in my experience so I try to just use the 2nd or 3rd node when I do this.. But she is doing nicely under her new bulbs! The temp doesnt seem to get as hot.. Still hot asf but a little less than before.. Interesting lol.. Mid week... Just look at that mid week pic! I love how thick and fat indica leaves are! I like to remove the 4th and 5th fingers on the leaves because that helps more light get to the branches.. But still leaves plenty of fan leaves for the branches to get energy from still.. But damn look how much growth in just 2-3 days!! And damn look how fat those leaves are! Lol I love it!!... This is gonna be such a fun grow! Already so fun! The training is gonna be a little different.. That's what I'm going for at least.. So far, she's already giving off alot of colors! The main stem has some purple streaks.. Doesn't seem like a deficiency.. The leaves are such a dark green.. Maybe too much nutes but not too much of the nutes that burn the leaves.. Idk.. The runoff was just tested.. Going in.. About 500 PPM.. Runoff was like 1500 PPM.. Holy shit! Gonna flush her pretty good next watering.. Probably about 3 days till the medium is nice and dry.. She is very happy and healthy as far as I can tell! Niceeeeee... Mid/End of week... Man look at those fat leaves!! And her stems are already coming out so fucking thick too! She is gonna produce some BEAST nugs!.. So not sure if the coco/perlite (organic with very tiny amounts of N-.03P-.05K-.01.. Not those exact numbers.. Unless I just guessed it right lol) ... But the runoff was coming out at like 2100 again.. So I flush the shit outta her in the sink.. Got it down to 200 some shit but pH was a little off.. Like 6.8.. Probably would have been fine but I also went ahead and fed her with a new dose of nutes.. she wasnt showing any signs of anything bad.. But the leaves are coming out very super dark green.. Very pretty but I think I remember seeing the chart and nitrogen excess I think does that.. Some shit I cant remember.. Lol.. But I got the runoff to 6.3 pH and about 400 PPM.. so everything should be great.. 👍 End of week.. Man!!!.. so much growth this week.. I always forget which week it is when they start to take off.. Even with all my abuse she is gettin so thick and strong 💪.. Spittin out such thick, dark, luscious leaves like there's no tomorrow! Lol Can't wait to see what she produces!!! On to the next...

Beginning of week.. Well, the branches were beginning to spilt at the top node.. Thats why they say to leave some stem between nodes when topping.. Them fuckers will split.. Even with such thick stem growth.. It was splitting pretty deep already.. So I said fuck it.. One single node it is... Thats ok tho.. She will still fill out her suitcase home with what Im gonna do to her! Gonna go up just a tad on the nutes.. The runoff pH and PPM are coming out pretty much just as they go in.. Niceeeee! She is gonna do such amazing things!!! Just watch! Next day... I havent got pics yet.. But I pretty much tied each of the main tops down.. Not quite pointing down yet.. Which is my main goal for a few days to let the new little branches can gain some dominance and then probably just leave her at that.. Just the 2 branches on the sides and let the main branches back up after a week or 2 and should have 6 main tops goin in the suitcase lol... Pics coming in a couple days. Hope this comes out as Im wishing lol.. And symmetrical.. I hate uneven colas.. Especially in this small nano shit lol even had to water again.. She is beginning to drink quite a bit more.. Noice! More time with her! I love it! Lol hope the springtails dont make it over to this one.. I need to buy either some diamiteous earth or whateverthefuck lol or some neem oil.. I heard neem is ok but the diamitenomious earth or wtf ever seems a bit quicker??... Maybe??? Idk lol.. Anybody got any ideas?? Or have any input on getting rid of pests in the medium.. Not on the leaves as far as I can tell.. They dont seem to hurt the plant either.. But they are just a nuisance to have in the runoff all the time.. Like I said.. Not in this plant yet.. But I'm sure it's just a matter of time with the way these mf's multiply.. I'll get rid of 1000's up to twice a day.. That must mean there are MILLIONS in there still.. Fuuuck.. Lol.. But any input or ideas fellow growmies?? Mid week.. She is filling out nicely.. Trying to tie the branches down more to bring the tops further down than the 2 new branches on each branch.. But since they are already so thick and short.. Its hard to tie them that far so Ive just been bending the very top sprout down by hand a few times a day.. When I can.. I read about this technique my first ever grow.. Just bending the very tip at the stem.. Almost making it weak.. Kinda like a supercrop I guess.. But weakening that part of the stem will just slow the top growth above it down.. But of course all the healthy new sprouts will take over with that apical dominance jazz lol.. But yeah.. Leaves are getting super dark green.. But i like it. Seems like such a strong sturdy leaf lol.. Thats a good thing I would think.. New growth is of course doing what it always does.. But still coming out to a healthy shade of green. The last pic for "mid week" is just showing there is still no preflower.. Sometimes I get it this early on.. Also that ai removed the fan leaf before it was every big enough to even get any sunlight to open the inside of the bush more.. Just did it super early and regretting it now cuz it might fuck up the apical dominance jazz since the back of the leaf I removed isnt there to block the light.. But im sure the minor supercropping to the tips should help do what I'm trying to make her do.. We shall see! Also added a little Floralicious Plus to the mix.. She dries out pretty well every other day now I believe.. Which is a good thing to let the medium get pretty dry too.. So the roots will do some searching and creating a big rootball a bit quicker.. I love these plants! Lol.. Later that day... Fuck.. Well she has been topped again at 2nd node this time.. Its cool.. Fuck it lol.. The supercropping type shit I was doing isn't meant for very new growth I guess.. Luckily it left some stem so they shouldnt split like last time.. Still gonna shoot for a nice, thick canopy.. We shall see how it goes

Beginning of week.. Well I'm updating this at night.. And I just gave her a haircut.. But wont have any "after" pics till tomorrow.. She is growing strong asf.. The stems are getting so thick already.. Kinda hard to bend.. I'm guessing it's that Silica doing it's magic! She is doing great! I need to go ahead and do a flush pretty soon.. The runoff PPM is getting a bit high.. And kinda weird but the runoff pH is getting a bit low.. Hmm if I remember correctly.. That would indicate a salt build-up.. I could be wrong.. I should invest in some FloraKleen or whatever.. But just a nice pH'd watering should do fine.. The second set of branches are finally growing some.. Seemed like they were just chillin for a few days.. Now that all the fan leaves arent in the way, she should start taking off again!.. Will update tomorrow AM with pics of the haircut!... Literally 10 mins later... OK I went ahead and took some pics before bed lol.. So there she is... Also went ahead and tied her bigger branches down a little Mid week.. Wow! 2 days after her haircut and some LST and she turned from just a wee little plant to this fucking huge bush! Lol not quite, but there is a huge difference as you can see.. The damn leaves have nowhere to go! Im gonna have to be careful with leaves laying on top of eachother.. I think they say it can cause powdery mildew.. Especially when the leaves are leaving moisture on another leaf, which I see everyday in here.. I can only fit a small computer fan so I'm just gonna have to stay on my toes with this one.. Which should be easy.. Almost done with my autoflower and soon will only have this girl growing for the time being.. She is lovin life tho! No issues as far as I can tell! She is gonna get a nice feeding later today 🌱🌿🌲💨💥🔥🤤😁👍lol Forgot to mention... Just started seeing very tiny preflowers poppin up.. Not big enough to tell if its male or female yet.. But the sex parts are beginning to form! Yay! Better be a fucking female or all that time trying the collidail silver method will be a waste.. But it only makes sense to have 2 females make another female plant! Cant wait to see what she produces! Especially under these new bulbs! End of week.. So I gave her another haircut yesterday and tied her further out branches down. I didnt get a before pic but there she is after.. I think thats about all the training I'm gonna give her.. If anything I will just adjust the newer tie downs within this next week.. Then flip to flower.. Im looking to just create some small colas.. No larf whatsoever.. Just wanting to see what my new strain has to offer! Plus it will have vegged already for 6 weeks! And still this super tiny.. I dont really find mainlining and/or manifolding the greatest.. Unless you have a whole month or 2 of time to waste of growing a plant, then basically taking it all the way down to little sprouts. If it didnt take so long, then fuck yeah.. But damn this is already gonna take 6 weeks!.. But enough about that.. She is super fucking happy and super fucking healthy! I couldnt be more impressed with my creation!!! She is doing so well!

Beginning of LAST VEG week.. This should be the last week of veg.. Then I'm gonna flip to flower.. She is healthy asf.. Hopfully she wont get too tall and stretch too much.. But she does have a little room for it as long as I keep her tied down as she stretches.. Next day... I SWEAR I saw what looked like baby preflower... But as I looked today.. Nothing.. I know I wasn't getting confused with the new branches sprouting out.. At least, I thought I wasn't! WTF! Watch my feminizing process produce a genderless plant.. That would be my luck lol.. I'm a little nervous to veg her out the rest of this week.. I feel like she may stretch ALOT.. but as I stated before.. Still got a little more room to tie her down a bit if needed.. Middle of LAST VEG week.. Went ahead and tied the branches down a bit further.. Not much.. Just one node down and also trying to curve the first set of branches to go a bit more sideways rather than out so the branches aren't growing into the sides of the grow box (suitcase lol).. Seems pretty happy and healthy thus far.. Runoff is coming out exactly as it goes in. Each water/feed I use a whole 1L bottle so I get quite a bit of runoff.. She dries out about every 2-3 days.. Every 3rd or 4th watering I do a flush (just 1L of plain pH'd tap water) to combat any build-ups.. So far so good! Definitely need to flower ASAP! She isnt gonna have much room! I hope I didnt let her go too long already.. Welp.. We will find out lol... End of LAST VEG week.. I defoliated her lastnight.. Not much just removed the very bottom leaves, along with their branch sprouts (very small), pretty much how Ive been doing it.. As long as I keep 2 or more nodes going, I never see any issues.. So far at least. I did flush (1L of pH'd tap water) 2 days ago.. I may flush one more time as she is transitioning.. The goal is to keep the stretching to a minimum because she is already about 6 inches from the lights.. Now, I've never burned a plant with little e27/e26 bulbs.. But I've also never used this much wattage all together.. We are going to find out, I guess.. Now, I'm thinking that I should have flipped to 12/12 last week.. Meh... That night... I ended up switching the light cycle down to 12/12 tonight.. Off at 5pm.. I guess I'll just call next week "week 1 of flower".. Even tho they tend to take about 2 weeks to transition and I'm just gonna have to count 2 extra weeks when it comes time to harvest.. But meh.. Cant wait to see what she produces! On to flower!!!

Beginning of TRANSITION (1) week.. Flipped to 12/12 last night.. I have been kinda flushing the medium.. The purpose of the flushing is to kind of stress her to keep her from stretching during transition.. I dont have enough room for her to stretch more than 3 inches lol.. I do have a little more room to tie her down a bit more if needed.. My goal is to fill every inch of the suitcase and see what these little bulbs can do! I've had decent results in the past... No burns.. No unnecessary stretching.. Very tight internodal distancing.. They arent too bad as long as you keep them pretty close.. Now, the true test begins! Next day.. Finally started seeing some preflower.. Just on one branch so far.. No pistils yet.. just the beginning of preflower.. Lol.. Weak.. But by the end of this week there should be plenty.. Never had a plant take this long to show preflower before.. I love how right after you flip to 12/12, every morning the leaves are praying.. I never notice it much any other time of a grow.. Just right when I flip em.. They are probably like "WTF! FINALLY SOME LIGHT!" Lol.. That's my take on it, at least.. Next day after that.. I went ahead and removed a bottom set of leaves and pulled her down a node on each branch.. Honestly kinda trying to stress her a little so she wont stretch lol.. I also have only given her pH'd water for the last 2 times (been about 5 days).. Also kinda letting the medium dry out a bit.. But it hasnt been enough to even make the leaves droop at all ever.. I probably should have watered her today but didn't have enough time.. But no stress still as far as I can tell.. The stretching should be starting aaaaany day now.. Next day after THAT... Found some super tiny pistils on one branch.. The tiniest I've ever seen! My feminizing process worked! That's crazy asf.. I'm gonna start selfing all of my ETHOS strains and have a never ending supply! Lol.. Fuckin right.. And even crossing some.. Like the Early Lemon Berry R1 and the OG Kush Autoflower.. And make Lemon Berry Kush Autoflower.. Its gonna be so EPIC! Lol Almost mid week.. I went ahead and adjusted the branches a little and got her nice and fed.. I dropped the FloraGro and instead I'm using Kushie Kush (bloom booster from Advanced Nutrients).. Not using any Silica.. Mostly because a blessing of a cold front finally came through! Oh, how I love the winter! Lolol.. Temps are maxed out at about 81F in the grow box (suitcase) at times.. But now I'm not worried about foxtailing.. Just hopes it stays nice and cool.. Perfecto! Will be updating with pics tomorrow! Mid week TRANSITION (1)... Not stretching much at all so far.. Maybe by the end of this week or early next week she should be in FULL TRANSITION.. We shall see what she does by then. Very small calyxes are beginning to form.. Not at every node yet.. But maybe 25% so far.. And a few pistils already as well (see pic)!!! Crazy how quick they popped out.. Usually dont see any pistils till about AT LEAST a week of 12/12.. But I also thought it was a little weird that she wasn't showing ANY preflower either.. Usually I've seen it between weeks 3 and 5.. Oh well.. At least I know the Collidial Silver method worked.. Not even sure if I'm spelling that right lol.. But she should be in full-on bloom pretty soon!!! Can't wait to see what these 2 plants created!!! Pretty sure I harvested the mother (the seed holder) WAAAY to early so the buds didn't even give a buzz.. Tasted ok.. But could have been better.. I'm guessing more of a Sativa cuz it was week 8 or 9 I'm pretty sure.. Alot of pistils died off and then alot more popped up again and I guessed it was foxtailing cuz my other strain in the tent was foxtailing from the heat.. But nope.. She could've swollen up alot too.. I kept her very small (also lol) because I was just really concerned with the seeds (offspring) but meh.. Live and learn, I suppose.. It could've been some really tasty stuff.. That's why I'm glad I got these seeds now! Hoping for the seed holders dankness and the colors from the mom (dad.. Or whatever lol) End of TRANSITION (1) week... Wow.. Such a perfectly even canopy! So gorgeous! Alot of leaves tho.. Not enough air flow.. Some but the leaves are sweating on the one underneath it.. No mold issues.. And I tend to move the leaves around (putting leaves from the bottom to the top) every other day or so and vice versa... The colas are pretty much not gonna get any light it seems.. The leaves will of course.. I guess this will tell if its the leaves that need the light for buds to get nice a dense.. Or if the light needs to hit the buds directly.. We will find out together!.. One more transition week and we will be in full bloom!! On to the next...

Day after beginning of week.. I went ahead and removed 1 node from each branch.. And tied down the further out braches down one node.. She got pretty dry since I missed giving her some love yesterday.. I need to find a better time for 12/12 cuz the timing I'm usually using.. Sucks lol.. 5am - 5pm.. Also.. Im starting to think these genetics are trash lol.. These plants seem to take forever to start flowering.. Oh yeah... Not counting transition weeks as flower. That just seems stupid.. 12/12 is not considered flower.. Flower is considered flower lol.. I wish they had transition weeks on here since they got germination now.. Whatev... Lol Mid week TRANSITION (2)... So she seems like she may need POSSIBLY a 3rd week of transitioning.. Or maybe a full 2.5 weeks if not the whole 3 weeks. Just.. Damn lol. But I went ahead and gave her a little flush. Just 1L 6.5 pH 260 PPM tap water.. Runoff came out at 5.9 pH 590 PPM so her roots are getting some good love down there lol.. The runoff pH has been pretty low lately so that's why I am keeping it up so high before it goes in.. Maybe 1 or 2 more higher pH waterings/fertigatings and she should be dialed in and I can just let her be at 6.2 - 6.3 pH area, especially now since she is beginning to flower! She may hit a calcium def if I don't get the pH to that point.. That's what has happened to me in the past, at least.. Just like to keep my pH in that area the entire grow for that reason... But I don't know what happened this time around.. Well, this was reused coco, I believe, so maybe that's why the pH was so outta wack.. But it's getting dialed back in. Can't wait to see what the flowers look like! Excited! Just wish she wasnt moving so slow.. And lately I had a little lighting/timer issue.. But none that harmed the night cycle.. Just the day cycle's hours a little. Pretty sure it's fine.. As long as I keep the 12 hours of dark UNINTERRUPTED.. Then I've never had an issue.. Stupid time change lol End of TRANSITION (2) week.. So it has been 13 days of 12/12 and the flowering is just forming so slowly. One of the mother plants was the same way.. Pistils just aren't forming like most cannabis plants would have by now.. Not even sure if I should count next week as week 1 of flower or have one more transition week.. Ugh... Ill go ahead and just say flower for now and see where it goes from there. Removed one more node from each branch and tied down a little more. She was growing into the lights quite a bit. But shes good on that for now.. On to the next!...

Beginning of week... FIRST WEEK OF FLOWER... She is kinda growing into the lights.. Not that these bs bulbs would burn.. But now the crowns of each branch aren't getting much light.. But the leaves are lol.. Like I said before, guess I'm just gonna see if getting light to the leaves is good enough for the flowers OR if the flowers need direct lighting.. Again this is just an experiement grow anyway.. Probably wont be trying this style again. I've had great luck in this grow box but I've never let one go this long in veg before in here lol. But she's happy and healthy. Hopefully no more stretching! 2 days later... Ok so the flowers are forming nicely now.. So I switched this week to the first flowering week! I wonder if just using the bloom nutes helped push her quicker into flower.. Idk.. Just a thought.. But they look so adorable when they start to flower.. Pistils shootin out all over the place! So happy! Lol will be updating with pics tomorrow! Mid week.. So I kinda supercropped each branch to bring them in.. Closer to the lights.. Not sure if I should have done that lol.. Cracked open a few of them.. But they should be fine.. I've done worse. I also went ahead and started adding FloraNectar Fruit-N-Fusion.. No trichomes just yet, but they should be popping up aaaany day now.. When I remove some of the future larfy nugs toward the bottom and ball it up and give it a wiff.. The smell is out of this world! I've never smelled anything like it.. I know this is waaay to early to be thinking about how she's gonna smell.. But it can give a hint.. I think its gonna be some super smelly dank! Lol.. Can't wait! Happy where this is going so far.. A few things I wish I could change.. But so far.. Not so bad! Day before end of week.. I've been bending the branches a bit.. Trying to get all the tops into the light.. They are a little bunched together.. I also tore the skin on a couple branches.. But I've done alot worse to plants and they did just fine.. She is starting to show a very tiny bit amount of trichomes. Lately I've been feeding, waiting 2 days and then flushing, waiting 2 days and feeding again.. Etc.. The medium stays pretty moist for more than 24 hours.. The only fans are the computer fans.. One for exhaust and the other is just kinda moving the air around on the inside.... I should probably try to raise it up so its at least blowing a little on the leaves and/or stems and/or medium. Shes doing great tho.. No nute burns.. No deficiencies.. Just happy and enjoying life! Will update with pics tomorrow! End of week.. Well she seems to still be stretching a bit lol.. She's damnnear just 1 inch from the light.. I cant get these little bs bulbs to penetrate thru to the bottom whatsoever (as you can see in the last 2 pics)... But they are doing something for sure.. She's alive and kickin! Trichomes are still lolligaggin.. But they will be out to play any day now, I'm sure!!.. Anyways... On to the next!!!...

Beginning of week.. So for the leaves to get burned, they literally have to be touching the LED chip lol.. Just one leaf was touching, as you can see in the pic. Trichomes are beginning to form.. They arent really giving off any scent yet.. Even when you rub the trichomes and give a wiff.. Normally can get a hint of what the finished nugs will smell like.. Not yet on this girl tho.. Obviously, this isn't gonna be the greatest genetics.. I was just trying to make my own feminized seeds with 2 bag seeds and also trying to figure out how I can fill the entire grow space and use every square inch of it.. Shouldn't have let her veg for so long.. Maybe just a week less would've been perfect. But you live and you learn... The supercropping has hardened.. Now the branches are pretty much back to their original spots lol.. So that was pointless stress.. Ugh.. Again.. Live and learn lol.. Mid week.. I went ahead and relined the entire inside with new foil (shiny side to reflect) I know people hate on this.. But these lights arent strong enough to cause any damage lol.. Unless actually touching the leaves.. Which I figured out at the beginning of this week. I also was able to redo the lights.. They were wired inside the tent.. But ai cut some holes thru the top so that the light sockets are halfway in the grow box.. That gave me an extra 2 inches or so lol.. Not much but now the entire canopy is getting some light.. Took me forever and was pissing me off to the point I almost gave up.. But I got it done. Trichomes are forming.. Not much of a smell.. There is some.. And it stinks.. I guess like a skunk smell.. Or cat piss lol.. But I'm happy with my creation.. So far! Update on the smell... I was able to find a good bit of trichomes to rub and smell.. So fruity and delicious! Idk where I got the cat piss smell from lol.. So sticky! Yummmm! End of week.. Lookin good this week.. No issues.. Was able to raise the lights and happy with the way things are fitting in the grow box.. Not much to say.. She is beginning to stack nicely too.. Cant wait to see the end results! On to the next week!!!...

Beginning of week.. I removed 1 node from all the branches.. I just want colas.. No larfy bullshit.. All these bud sites should form into 1 huge cola on each branch.. Still can't believe I made my own feminized strain from 2 bag seeds! Collidial silver is awesome! Lol.. You can kinda see in the first pic that the lights are burning the leaves.. Just a tad.. You can mostly see it from the 2 bulbs on the sides, not the one in the middle. The middle bulb (blurple) is about half an inch further away than the other 2 (sunlike).. Not much else I can do tho.. Just gonna roll with it, I guess.. I MIGHT be able to add an extra half inch to it later on, if I see it's getting much worse.. But other than that she is doing great! 👍 Mid week.. This is a day late.. But meh.. Not much has chsnged.. She is producing a crazy amount of trichomes! That is what I was hoping for! Now I just need her to change pretty colors at the end and I'll be super happy with my creation! Still kinda smells like cat piss.. But then you rub some trichomes and it smells very sweet! It's obviously still too early to see what the end results will be.. But so far it seems she took after both moms! Lol.. And obviously that's what should have happened lol. I wonder what another offspring would produce! Same results?? Or waaay different.. More diaries to come with her sisters for sure! Happy happy happy! End of week.. Just look at how frosty she is!!! Even the fan leaves are more than halfway covered with trichomes!!! Just wow! It reminds me of an ETHOS strain! Well.. Kinda.. Just the trichome coverage lol.. Well.. On to the next week!...

Beginning of week.. She is one frosty bitch! WOW! There is one top that is turning a little yellow.. Its not light burn.. But the light doesnt even hardly hit that one.. It shouldn't be any nutrient problem.. The others would be showing the same, I would think.. Maybe it has something to do with the stupid suppercropping I did? Most of the branches look all fucked up.. Tears in the outter layer of the stems.. Knuckled up like a mf'r tho.. Looks kinda ridiculous lol.. I wish I hadn't tried it now lol.. The leaves are insanely bunched together.. I try to russle them around everyday so they aren't getting sweated on or whatever that bs is lol.. Never had powdery mold issues before.. And not ready to get it now lol.. Or ever. I have been noticing some fungus gnats... Son of a bitch.. Not a whole lot.. But there are some for sure.. Ugh... How is that even possible?? I thought coco/perlite was supposed to be pretty much pest free?!?! And I know I'm not watering too much.. The medium dries every other day.. Then I usually wait to water/feed the next day! Ive noticed that the runoff has been a bit higher than what's going in.. Not much.. But if I feed at 1000 PPM, the runoff comes out at 1100-1200 PPM.. And I flush every other watering.. Feed, flush, feed, flush, etc.. I use 1 full liter of water every time.. Whether it's feed or flush day.. And the amount of runoff is about 1/3 of the liter, if not half of it!.. Maybe I'm letting it dry out too much.. She's drinking all the water and leaving the nutrients behind... But that's why I feed, flush, feed, flush... Maybe that isn't enough.. Or maybe I should try the FloraKleen in one of the flushes.. Hmm.. Decisions, decisions... I think I will attempt the FloraKleen.. Just once.. I just fed her yesterday.. So, in the next 2 or 3 days, I will flush with FloraKleen.. Just to get any accumulated nutrients that have been left behind. This will be my first time using FloraKleen.. A little nervous 😬 Mid week.. She is doing great! 👍 No issues.. I'm going to start giving her cold waterings/feedings and only going to water/feed at night. Trying to bring out any colors as soon as possible, if she's going to be a colorful strain. I'm assuming she will be colorful because the parents were both pretty colorful! *fingers crossed* End of week.. She is stacking very nicely.. Gettin nice and thick.. Very covered in trichomes.. She handles the nutrients great too. Gonna run these seeds in my 2x2 pretty soon and see what she can do under my Mars Hydro TS 1000.. Anyways.. Thats for another diary.. On to the next...

Beginning of week.. This is a day late.. I should have watered lastnight but I missed it before lights out.. She seemed very thirsty this morning.. She will be fine tho. She's just bulking up at this point! Stacking super nicely.. I can't wait to see what she yields in a little less than 1 square foot of space! Mid week.. She is thickening up very nicely for such a small grow! I am very happy with the way things are going for this girl.. Smell is still very stinky.. Again, like cat piss.. Skunky, I guess... But when I rub some trichomes on my fingers, it's more sweet smelling.. Like a mix of her parents (both moms lol). No issues whatsoever.. No nutrient excesses or deficiencies.. Just one happy, non-claustrophobic cannabis girlie lol. I could have removed ALOT of leaves.. The lights can't even penetrate halfway through them.. But again, she is happy and healthy as fuck! And covered in an abundance of trichomes! End of week.. So I did a thing... Lol.. I know this frowned upon very much.. But I had to remove alot of the fan leaves.. I was beginning to notice PM on some leaves.. Not much.. But since I dont really have a good amount of airflow.. I figured this may be a possibility.. So I went ahead and just removed pretty much the bottom 2-3 nodes of fan leaves on each branch.. She doesn't look too bad lol.. But now the bottom buds can get ALOT more light.. As opposed to pretty much NO light. I doubt this is going to stress her too much.. I just don't see that happening.. But I guess we will see!!! On to the next week!...

Beginning of week.. Happy and healthy.. Even after the horrible haircut lol.. But she is doing fine.. The tops are gaining some thickness.. Pistils are still quite white.. Not many have turned yet.. Still got some weeks to go... Mid week.. I've been giving her refrigerated water at night.. But she doesnt drink much.. She can go 2 to 3 days without needing to be watered.. But I always make sure it's right before lights out and that it's refrigerated water.. So far, I haven't seen any color changing.. There are a couple leaves that may be starting to change.. Toward the top of the colas.. Its like the outer edges of the leaf.. Not enough to say its changing yet tho lol. Just something I have noticed but kinda hard to see unless you really look.. I'm sure its just too early for any colors to come out.. But they should! End of week.. Pistils are still turning.. Not seeing hardly any milky or cloudy trichomes.. Most are still clear.. Still just watering with cold water and have noticed very slight coloring in a couple of the calyxes.. Not much.. Not enough to even get a decent pic of.. But it is there.. Only been watering about 2 - 3 times a week.. Medium just doesn't dry like I woupd expect it to.. Temps aren't as high as they were in the summer.. Maybe that's way?? Not sure.. But she is drying out maybe a day sooner than she was in veg. Tops are getting somewhat bigger.. But underneath (mostly the nodes I removed the fan leaves from) are staying pretty small.. Ugh.. Gonna be some hard to trim nugs.. Maybe just make some bubble hash with those and the trim.. We shall see.. Not gonna start the flush yet tho.. She seems like she may be a long flowering strain.. Ugh.. Kinda wanna get her outta there and start some real genetics in my suitcase lol.. Anyways.. On to the next!!!...

Beginning of week.. She doesn't have many pistils turning.. Some tho.. This is going to be a long flowering strain.. Not many milky trichomes yet either.. She is very stinky lol.. Hope she is ready for a flushing soon! Mid week.. Still just doin her thing.. Pistils still slowly turning.. Still smells like piss lol till you rub the trichomes.. Then you smell the sweet piney dankness.. Not a bad strain.. Just a long flowering period.. Can't complain lol. I'm ready to start flushing.. But she's not.. Maybe I could just start flushing and flush her for a good 3 or 4.. Or however many weeks it takes till she's ready.. I've flushed a plant for a good 4 or 5 weeks before.. Leaves looked like shit but the bud was still great.. That was the Zkittlez Glue actually since I counted the flowering weeks wrong.. Hmm.. Nah I'm gonna wait another week before I even think about flushing. I am seeing some milky/cloudy trichomes.. Even a very few amber starting.. You can tell they aren't even full on amber cuz of how light they still are.. But i dis find a few beginning to amber.. So yeah.. Maybe 1 more week of nutes, then start flushing. End of week... Still waiting to see some trichomes turning lol.. Pistils are turning for sure.. Trichomes.. Not so much yet.. Seeing some light burn issues on a couple leaves.. But that's not stopping her one bit! She is still a very happy girl! Thickening up a little on top.. Bottom.. Not so much yet either lol.. Still happy with her.. On to the next!!!...

Beginning of week.. Still truckin along.. Not much to report on.. Pistils have turned a bit.. Trichomes still mostly clear.. Not many cloudy yet.. She still smells like piss lol.. Except when the trichomes are rubbed.. Then they smell pretty piney.. Sweet.. Should be a decent smoke if I dont harvest too early like I did one of the mothers. Mid week.. So checking the trichomes... One cola has alot of milky/cloudy.. While the rest are still pretty much clear.. Weird.. The shorter of the colas actually are like that.. And the taller colas are still very much clear.. My autoflower will be well harvested and dried before this girl is even gonna be close to ready! Jeeez.. Better be some dank bud for waiting this long lol.. End of week.. Pistils still hardly turned.. Trichomes are still mostly clear.. The 2 shortest branches have quite a few cloudy.. So, I'm guessing the others should follow aaaany day now.. She is taking FOREVER! Better be some good shit to be waiting this damn long! Would be nice if I could pull an oz. off this girlie tho! One of the mothers DEFINATELY got harvested waaay to early tho, now that I see how long this one is taking.. I wonder if all the offspring will act like this or if it would be a mix of both mothers.. Hmm.. Anyways... On to the next!...

Beginning of week.. Im wondering if I should change the light schedule from 12/12 to 10/14 or something.. Maybe to help speed this girl up lol.. The 2 shorter colas have some cloudy.. But the others, not so much.. Hoping the others will catch up soon.. This bitch is taking FOREVER!!! Mid week.. Still just watering/feeding and waiting... I noticed some of the spots that are purpling that the trichomes are turning purple/pink also.. Kinda cool.. One of her mothers did the same.. I cant wait till this one is over lol.. I read on the GrowWeedEasy website that some plants can be "procrastinators" and just like to change almost overnight.. So Im checking the trichomes about every other day... End of week.. Starting to find some cloudy trichomes here and there.. May feed for one more week then start the flush.. Damn this is taking forever lol.. On to the next week!!!...

Beginning of week.. Seeing some more cloudy trichomes.. Gonna feed this week then possibly start the flush.. God I sure hope so lol.. Some slight coloring on the calyxes at the top of the colas.. Looks kinda pretty.. I went down a bit on the CalMag and the Trio.. Upped the bloom booster and just waiting... Still lol Next day... So this morning I found a single nanner.. Fuck.. And as Im pulling it off as carefully as I possibly could with tweezers... POOF!.. All over that same cola lol.. Honestly Im not too worried about it.. Probably wont even be alive long enough for any seeds to form (hopefully).. But I guess we shall see... I squeezed a couple bottom nugs and WOW.. so fucking dense!.. Solid buds.. This is one interesting plant.. That's for sure.. Mid week.. This is a day late.. But whats a day when this bitch been going forever already? Lol.. Gonna begin the flush after this week.. If I need to flush for 3 weeks, I will.. But the goal is to flush for 2 weeks and be done with her! Lol.. Gettin there.. Finally... Later that night.. Fuuuuuck I dropped her.. Its pretty cold outside so before I watered her, I wanted to give her some setting sun and bask in the cool breeze.. Being top-heavy.. She flipped and flopped.. Oh it looked so painful lol.. She didnt break tho.. Just got alot of dog hair all over.. And dirt.. Like actul dirt.. Not soil.. Or coco.. Straight nasty dirt.. But I dusted her off and finished giving her the last feeding.. Next watering will be the beginning of the flush! She is a tough one.. I think any other plant would've broken a limb or something.. Just a couple injured leaves lol.. Damnit.. Well growing for this long, something was bound to happen.. And it finally did. I also spilled the runoff I was going to test.. Lol.. Just a bad day I guess lol.. Last week I was making some bubble hash with ALOT of trim I had.. I was scooping the very last bit out and puttinf it onto the 25 micron screen to dry.. The spoon slipped out of my hand and landed on the corner or the micron screen I had sitting on cardboard woth a napkin in between to absorb the excess water.. It flipped into the air and landed in the kitchen sink.. It didnt end there.. There was a little water in the sink. It immediately dissolved again and went straight down the drain.. There wasnt even a split second to save it.. Eye balling it.. It was probably about 5 grams of 225 micron kief.. So devastated... Lol.. End of week... Flush begins tomorrow! Spent about an hour plucking all the crap that stuck to her when she fell.. Got most of it off.. Should be good.. Gonna run some FloraKleen thru the medium tomorrow and thus beginning thy flushing sequence! On to the next!!!...

Beginning of week... Finally beginning the flush!!! I ran a little more than it says to run of the FloraKleen but it shouldnt hurt anything.. I'm assuming lol.. It says about 1.25mL/L and I used 1.50mL/L.. Should be fine.. But the nugs are looking pretty finally lol.. I stopped doing the cold waterings.. I think it works better only during the flush.. So maybe I'll start them again soon.. Not today tho.. Not gonna do much keeping track of the runoff either.. Just gonna try to get the medium as low as possible today and just keep it going from there.. Can't wait to see what I have created finally!!! It has taken so long!!! Finally getting to the end!! I do see plenty of milky/cloudy trichomes.. Very few amber.. And still a bit of clear.. But not too too much clear.. So I will flush for 3 weeks if she needs it.. But so far she seems to be on track!!!! Mid week.. Noticed some very immature seeds trying to grow.. Shouldn't be an issue tho.. Those damn nanners... These nugs are so freaking dense! Rock fucking solid!! I can't wait to give my creation a taste!! Definetly seeing some of the colors one of the mothers had.. Also the weird bud structure.. Idk how to explain it.. Not really foxtails.. But maybe it is slight foxtailing lol.. Calyxes popping out of calyxes.. But damn these nugs are dense!!! From top to bottom!! Finish up this week.. And hopefully just one more week of flushing and I will get to drying her! Still smells funky, but then rubbing the trichome covered leaves and smelling, she has a nice sweet smell.. So weird how different the smell is from just sitting there to rubbing her down a bit lol.. Hoping she doesnt taste like shit lol. End of week... She is doing great still.. Just been flushing this week. Not much colors coming thru the leaves.. The calyxes have changed some.. I'm guessing next week (hopefully the last week flushing) more colors will be showing.. Kinda weird how how where a leaf has been broken or damaged, that's where the colors have showed more.. You can notice this is the pics. Welp.. On to the next week!...

Beginning of week.. Still trucking along.. Shit.. I may have to run her 1 more week. Not seeing any fading yet.. The trichomes are getting there.. But I kinda want them to be a little more amber.. Will know more by the end of the week.. The TDS of the runoff is coming out just as it goes it.. About 230 PPM at the most. Just wish she would be fading a bit more.. See how this week goes.. About mid week.. Well... I harvested.. Lol.. See next week for pics!!!

Harvest day... So I harvested a couple days early.. It was mid week. But the trichomes were super amber.. Shouldnt be an issue.. I like the narcotic, couch-lock highs! Just chopped without any hesitation.. I'm going to dry her in a small cardboard box under a desk I rigged up with a cabinet door on the front of.. Its also where I store all my bud while it cures in the jars.. But I will be updating as she dries and cures! So if you wanna follow along, just check back once a week or so.. I'll probably be updating every other day.. Sorry.. I get bored and cant do Facebook anymore lol.. But check out how fat these colas are! And holy shitmm so fucking dense!!! Rock fucking hard top to bottom.. No lie! Wow... Oh yeah.. And I know alot of people hate wet trimming.. But I'm wanting to see how it comes out for myself.. If it doesn't seem to affect much, I may keep doing both.. Wet trimming and dry trimming.. Much easier and faster. Some people say thats what causes the hay smell.. But I'm pretty sure the hay smell is from drying to quick or too much.. But that's also why I'm doing it with this girlie.. Now that I got drying and curing down pretty well I can judge it for myself.. I've noticed that some of the things you read on the internet isnt necessarily true.. I've attempted MANY things that are frowned upon in the cannabis community that actually worked very well for me.. Such as this grow box with these grow lights.. Maybe it's just the genetics.. But these nugs could crack a windshield lol.. They are rock hard.. Never in my life have I had such dense buds in my hand before.. Should be some intersting stuff.. Now that she is harvested, I can go ahead and get another girl mainlined in my ghetto grow box.. As long as the lights are close, but not touching the lady, it should work just as well as any other light.. This is just to have some extra bud for in between my real grows in my tents.. Gonna be setting up my 2x4 with Optic SLIM 320H pretty soon.. Cant wait for that! But definately keeping this grow box and lights around for sure! Cant wait to see how much she produced!!! I'm thinking ATLEAST an oz with this girl! Now to decide which girl to grow next!! Maybe some better genetics and see what they can do under these ghetto lights lol.. Anyways.. Will be updating as these dry and cure!... Day 3 of drying.. Only thing I dont like about wet trimming so far, is how hard it is to tell when the nugs are dried.. I like to use the leaves and how crisp they feel to get a better idea of how long they should be hung for.. But just placing them in a jar with a hygrometer for 2 hours.. They read well over 72% RH.. Lol.. So still got a couple days of drying.. Not bad on the amount of trim also.. Cant wait to see how much hash I can get from the trim on this small plant! As frosty as she is.. I can't imagine its going to be too small of a yield lol Hoooly shiiiit!!! 38 grams! Under lights that are 22 watts total!!! She did dry a little faster than I like.. The environment sucks here.. Didnt even use a fan.. Sometimes I use a humidifer (not dehumidifier.. HUMIDIFER) because it sucks so bad here.. But the smell isn't bad.. Was getting a little bit of a hay smell... But after sittinf in the jars just a couple hours the dank (cat piss) smell came back lol.. Smells good when you squeeze a nug tho.. Kinda sweet.. Not the greatest strain but I wasnt attempting to create something amazing.. Just wanted to see if I could do it!.. Now I want to start crossing good genetics! 1 week of curing.. Still havent tried it. A friend tried it but he sucks at describing lol.. So I'm just going to wait.. Got the jar from 70% RH down to 63% so far.. Not much of a smell.. Well, there is.. But smells like some decent mexican brick weed to be honest.. It's not the best but it does smell like some weed lol.. LOOKS alot better than it smells.. Friend did say it tastes ok.. High was a little on the couchlock side (which is what I was going for) but I will test it out myself here pretty soon.. Cant wait!!!
