Soaked for a day in water. Popped seed in dirt. She was like the other 420 seed I popped, the shell leaves an inner tough skin to break and she needed help to delicatly scrape it off, but no big deal, she seems to be growing just fine! Here we gooo!
End week one got seedling under led
Transplanted. She took good. Got rid of CFL and under led, obvious in pics.
I mixed soil, 40%perlite, and fresh worm poop I collect outside. I added blond peat moss as soil only hard dark Peet moss.
Stem solid. She pushed a head up. Happy so far
Getting bigger. Thanks to winter temperatures, I can stay perfectly at 20C° with lamps as close as I want.
I started nutes to give a bit of a push.
Shes looking good to me. I am not defoiling like last time until late game, to see if leaving more organic material makes better yeilds. I am not liking the few pre flower spots, I hope she stays longer in veg to get more branches. I need to fill jars :p
She is really showing her sex, grew more vertical, white pistilis shooting out... She smells of minty hints. My only worries so far is that some flower heads seem limpy...not perky or stong ...
I added CFL + led to give extra light boost. This only possible because the outside temperature is very low, and it oenetrates the wall of the tent.
She's almost doubled in height.
smells minty and earthy.
gotten stronger but can see some "floppy" spots. Generally she should pull through.
More white hairs and over all I am satisfied... I should mention. I am in store bought generic soil..
I just added my CFL with led. Nice lower canopy light now. She's AMAZING
She is extra limp and floppy today. Even after an hour of watering. I'm not sure what's up but the only sign I have is she is under watered... Perhaps lost room in fabric pot to grow more.. Not sure... But I filled tray with water so she can sip that all day.
So far no bugs. No disease. Very string grow
I did giver her a small defoil. I took off certain leaves and scrubby flowers.
**update**
The plant is doing great. I bottom fed ph balanced water only after top feeding nutes and she perked right back up.
she's grown more and almost touching lamp.
Bounced back from under watering. I do à new bottom water plus top water now. I also top fed with soil and perlite because the soil got compact. I did this last few grows with good results. So far not a single dead leaf. Great grow so far. Just wish the buds kick into overdrive now ☺️
She's sweet garbage smelling lol. Smells garbage fart like outside tent but sweet up close.
Perfect grow. Not a single bad leaf.
Sorry, did pic with lights on. Besides getting fatter and stinky, she's still white thick pistilis growing. The triches coming in. She's gonna be covered I bet in a few weeks wooo
She's so top heavy she is falling over so I had to fix her to a support stick... That also falls over so I attached it all to the tent post.
She is just now turning orange hairs. It's starting.
I feel like she's in a delay though. I am surprised I don't have a lot of trichomes production. And still very thick white hairs.
Leaves are starting to turn yellow. I guess this is a magnesium thing... But I know I'm late flower.. . Just wish buds looked more mature...Maybe it's a patience thing.
Compare week 9 and 10. Late flower.
+ /- good grow no problems entire grow uptto week 10, leaves turning yellow now.
- buds still long young because thick white hairs. + but week 10 she got so heavy I had to retire her to tent post.
Is this just a question of patience?
Might want to start checking those trichomes to determine when to harvest! nowadays some strains still have lots of white pistils while already ready to be harvested!
Check the trichome coloration to determine the effects of the buds, clear trichomes indicate immaturity, milky/cloudy trichomes indicate maturity and peak THC potency (amongst other cannabinoids) that gives a more clear head "high", while amber trichomes indicate degradations of THC to CBN that give a sedating and relaxing "high".
Also check the buds if they have noticeably stopped growing/fattening, this can also be an indicator to harvest soon.
Btw some strains with strong "Sativa" genetic composition may have long flowering periods that can even get up to more than 10 weeks of flowering before harvest.
Hope this helps! Good luck and happy growing :)
