Day 1 - For my previous grow I changed way too many variables which created a ton of issues. This time I'm going back to using FFOF + perlite for my medium as well as FF nutrients. Definitely going to go much easier on the feedings this time.
Seeds were germinated within 36 hours using paper towel method.
Day 2 - SS2 and 4AM2 are breaking soil! I hope the few fungus flies I have don't mess with my seedlings too much.
Day 3 - All seeds have broken soil. Using a sprayer to moisten the soil every 8 hours or so.
Day 4 - Seedlings look darker than usual but I'm probably overthinking it and they'll be fine. SS1 is quite a runt with the smallest first set of leaves (not cotyledons) I've ever seen.
Day 5 - Definitely overthinking leaf color, everything looks great so far. Still going to keep an eye on SS1 since it's so runty.
Day 6 - SS2 & 4AM2 were severely underwatered last night so I woke up to them lying down in their pots. They perked up pretty quickly after watering, everything should be fine.
Day 9 - Everything's looking good so far. Even the mutated Sour Stomper seems like it will be fine. I think SS2 stretched a little too much while trying to get the seed shell off so I had to put a piece of plant wire around to support it until I can transplant.
Day 11 - Sour Stomper runt/mutant is pretty far behind in development but still growing nonetheless. Maybe another 3-5 days until transplant into their final pots.
Day 13 - Sour Stomper 2 almost looks like it's getting a little too much N right now but I'm sure it will be fine as it gets bigger. I haven't added any nutrients yet.
Transplant day! FFOF/Perlite 80/20
Day 16 - All 4 ladies transplanted into 3 gallon pots of FFOF & perlite at 80/20. The runt is moving right along and might even have some pretty nice side branching due to the stunted vertical growth.
Day 19 - The last time I grew these strains I started seeing pistils around day 16, but nothing yet this time. I'm excited to possibly get a little more veg time in before they start flowering.
EDIT: Pistils on 4AM1 & Sour Stomper 1
Also, by this day last grow I had some visible deficiencies/burn on lower leaves but so far so good this time (no nutes yet).
Day 22 - All plants are showing pistils now, Sour Stomper runt was the last one to show. Sour Stomper 1 really stretched overnight while the runt has stayed shorter with more developed side-branching. Both 4AM's looking good.
Started LST on Sour Stomper Runt
Day 24 - Sour Stomper is taking well to the LST, a huge difference in shape/structure between the 2 Sour Stompers.
Day 27 - First feeding: 1.5L, 1/4 strength nutes
Day 29 - Everything’s looking good! The Sour Stompers look so different because of training and genetics (runt).
Day 30 - Looking better than last time!
Day 31 - Watered 1.5L each at 6.5pH
Day 32 - 4AM1 has the most developed buds so far but Sour Stomper 1 is already putting on some light frost!
Day 35 - Fed
Day 36 - Looking good for the most part. 4AM fan leaves look pretty dark to me, might make an adjustment in their nutes (still at 1/4 strength). 4AM starting to put on frost.
Day 44 - Some lower leaf issues on the Sour Stompers, mostly #1. I've switched to just pH'd water the last 2 waterings, might continue to hold off on nutes until the roots are strong enough. Some minor burning on 4AM as well but not as bad.
Day 51 - Stour Stomper 1 is looking very frosty, excited for her to start swelling. The runt is just a little behind but still looking great. 4AM1 really chunked up quickly, quite far ahead of 4AM2. Getting pretty stinky in there. Some lower leaf issues but nothing devastating.
Day 59 - Sour Stomper 1 looks like it has just a few more days before chop! SS2 Runt is maybe a week behind SS1 in development. 4AM1 is so bulky but might have another 2 weeks while 4AM2 might have closer to 3-4 weeks left. I went out of town for 2 days and came back to SS1 and 4AM2 quite wilted. They perked back up but some fan leaves didn't entirely recover but it's nothing catastrophic.
Day 65 - Sour Stomper 1 and 4AM1 are both so close to chop! 4AM2 is looking pretty weak compared to #1, but Sour Stomper 2 (Runt) is doing great and probably ready within 2 weeks.
Day 68 - Chopping Sour Stomper 1 today or tomorrow, 4AM1 will come down shortly after.
I’ll consider the “Redemption Grow” a success since this 4AM turned out SO much better than the last time. I’m thinking less is more especially with autos.
