With number one, forever...

Gayek Hey everyone)) I'm going to grow the strain Number One from the seed bank Doctor's Choice. I'm starting this diary from the first week of vegetative growth, when the first five-finger leaf appeared; I always count the start of veg from the appearance of the first five-finger leaf. All the three-finger leaves have popped up, and I've been watering with regular settled water. I haven't done any training yet. The plant is building up its root mass. I want to try to get 22 colas from the plant.

Gayek The plant shot up, increasing its leaf mass. I water it as the pot dries out, every two days with a nutrient solution, alternating with water until it drains. 200 ml comes out of the drainage when I water with 1.6 liters of water or nutrient solution. I started training on 09/17/20, cutting pieces of 4 mm single-strand wire 12 cm long. I bent them with pliers to make hooks for tying up the stems.

Gayek I did LST training on the plant, bent the 16 formed branches, which grew 5 cm in a week. The plant shows great growth in width, lots of leaves, and the first five-fingered leaves that popped up dried up and fell off by themselves. I don't see any pre-flowers yet; the plant is focusing on developing the formed branches, and all the energy from the nutrients is going into growth for now.

Gayek 01.10.20 I watered with 1.8 liters of compote, I water whenever I have free time. 04.10.20 I watered with 2 liters of compote, fertilizers from Plantators (a Russian manufacturer), I removed the leaves that fell off by themselves and some that fell off when touched. I performed the "outer green ring" training, tied it to the screws that I attached to the grow bag, and secured it with office rubber bands. The branches bent parallel to the pot. The plant formed an "inner ring" of 10 stakes. The first stigmas appeared on 02.10.20, I now know that the plant is female and that's cool. My plants usually show the first stigmas around 40 days in, and I start the pre-flower a week after the first hairs appear. Wishing everyone a successful grow and a big harvest 💪 thanks to everyone who follows my diary 🙏😍

Gayek Hey everyone)) On 11.10, I had the last training session before flowering, I bent the colas, leveled all 26 colas to the same height, removed the leaves that started falling off by themselves, all the yellow ones that could fall off with just one touch. Today I watered with 2.3 liters of compote, spraying twice a day with HB-101 and twice a week with Budzilla. Let's not forget that this is an autoflowering plant. The plant is growing very rhythmically, both upwards and outwards. It has filled the tent 80% in width and depth, and that's not the limit yet; I just gave it Terra Vega 4 ml/l of water, there should be even more green mass. I'm finishing the 4th week of veg and switching to flowering on 12.10. Good luck to everyone and great harvests!👍💪

Gayek On 12.10, I switched the plant to feeding with compote for flowering, using Plantators Terra Flowers. I water with compote for 2 days and then one day with plain water. I mix the nutrients according to the manufacturer's chart and will gradually increase the dose. When preparing the water for mixing the nutrients, I add 2 drops of orthophosphoric acid; I stopped measuring pH because 3 devices show nonsense, so I’m looking at the condition of the leaves of the plant. I determine what elements are lacking based on the plant's health. On 17.10, I watered with 2.5 liters of compote and bent 29 branches, managing to form them. The plant perceives a low level of stress, but I’m carefully bending them to avoid damaging the stems. The last bend was done, and now the plant is directing all its energy into developing the buds. I’m still spraying the leaves twice a day. The plant has stretched across the entire tent, and as I understand it, this is not the limit; the branches will be pressed against the walls of the tent. Wishing everyone great harvests and problem-free grows, see you next week! 👋

Gayek I water like this: 2 days of compost - 1 day of water - 1 day dry. Foliar feeding follows this scheme: once a week Diamond Dust + Molasses, twice a week Budzilla, every day HB-101. On 26.10, I removed all the dead leaves, the stretch ties are still holding the colas, should I remove the ties a bit later or is it better to leave them until harvest? The plants have noticeably increased in height and width.

Gayek A week has passed without any significant changes. I forgot to mention that after 2 waterings, I add molasses with banana powder to the standing water, mix it in one container, and water this mixture at the root. I'll attach the instructions here in a photo. I stopped spraying on the leaves since week 8 because watering while spraying can wash off the trichomes from the buds and leaves. The flowering boost has started; the plant will be switched to plain water on November 20-25. I've adjusted the nutrients to 4 ml/l now. Terra Flora, after watering, I give a liter of this mixture every week: Diamond Dust 1g/l + VitAminka 1 ml/l. 2 liters at the root. After 2 waterings, I make a mix of banana peels, molasses, and Baikal EM-1. There is a small problem with the leaves of the plant: the leaves are curling up, the petioles are turning red, and the plant's growth has slowed down; the buds are developing very slowly. The trichomes are weakly expressed. Wishing everyone good harvests and problem-free grows 💪👍

Gayek My 9th week since the first 5-bladed leaves appeared, from this moment I started counting the veg, so now it's the 10th week since the first five-bladed leaves, not from seed germination. So, there are 3 weeks left, not 4, until harvest. This week I stopped feeding with bloom nutrients and stimulants; now the plant is consuming the remaining minerals from the soil and redirecting them to the buds. The plant stretched a bit more, about 5 cm this week, and I had to tie up the side branches that grew taller than the rest; I had to level them with all the others. The leaves stopped falling this week, so everything is great. Yellow leaves are normal; the plant has been eating well throughout the flowering stage. From the 9th week, I'm switching the plant to Ripen for 10 days of watering, and a week of pure water every day with 2 liters until excess drains out. The plant is gaining mass; I checked the trichomes with a handheld microscope, and they started to cloud up. I’ll keep the plant until 40% amber; that’s what I originally aimed for, that’s what I need. All the buds started to swell from the top down to about half the branch, fully covered with buds. Watch the growth dynamics week by week. There are more and more trichomes every day. Wishing for all ripe and excellent harvests! 👏

Gayek Since the 10th week, I switched to Ripen, using standing water for watering. Once a week, I give molasses with banana peels. I forgot to mention that 1.5 weeks ago, I did a defoliation of the lower leaves, and the weak ones that were taking all the energy, which meant the other buds were getting less nutrients. I really should have removed leaves from the start; I always used to do that, but this time I wanted to see the full branching of the genetics. The leaves started to yellow actively, and the buds have grown 5 cm taller since last week, gaining mass in width.

Gayek Last week before harvest. Growth has started to slow down, a lot of leaves have begun to yellow, the plant is transitioning into fall mode. I fed Ripen 5 ml/l of water for 10 days. I’ll be watering with just water for 10 days, and then the plant will go under the knife. I’m disappointed with the light and the fan that blows out. Watering 2 liters of water daily until drainage. I also sprinkled a bit more banana peel into the soil and watered with water mixed with molasses. All the thick and tall colas 💪👍

Gayek I really liked this strain for its low maintenance with nutrients, easy watering, and care, and I'm very satisfied with the result. If part of the light hadn't broken, I probably would have had more buds at harvest. I really enjoyed the taste of #1, and the most important thing is the percentage ratio of sativa to indica. Thanks to everyone who supported me and stayed with me until harvest, thanks to the light manufacturer for its wonderful light, and a huge thank you to the seed producer, Doctor, you are the best! I wish you were my friend. I grew all the strains from your seed bank, and everything turned out as always at the highest level👌 seed germination was 100/100. Interestingly, on the side of the light where the LEDs burned out, the branch growth is lower than on the side where the LEDs are intact. Good luck to everyone, and see you in the next grow🙏😊
