31 Oct 20: Planted seeds in jiffy puck directly in substrate(Pro-Mix HP with 20% vermiculite) Humidity dome first few days until seeds breaks surface weary of damping off again. Once the seeds break the surface begin hardening off.
04 Nov 20: #2 broke the surface and is opened up.
05 Nov 20: #1 germinated fully and sprouted.
Day 2:
06 Nov 20: watered approx 50 ml
Day 5:
09 Nov 20: watered with soil drench of soluble seaweed which included 1 Tbsp/Gal of unsulphured molasses to feed soil biology.
Day 18
22 Nov 20: First training began. Topped both plants. Seeing two phenotypes from seed. One Pheno is taller with bigger spacing between nodes while the other is much shorter and tighter.
Day 20
24 Nov 20: 1 tsp/Gal soluble seaweed extract watered in ph 6.8
Day 24
28 Nov 20: transplanted to 3.3 Gal Airpot with dry amended Pro-Mix HP. Inoculated soil with fish sh¡t 1ml/litre until mycelium webs visible (48 hrs). Placed approx 1 tsp of dynamyco in transplant hole.
Day 31
05 Dec 20: watered with 1/ml per litre of fish shit ph to 6.4
Day 35
09 Dec 20: FIM’ed pheno #1 and topped #2. Watered today with 1 tsp/Gal seaweed extract. Lights up to 70w and added a mini humidifier to get RH up to 75Rh.
Day 38
12 Dec 20: they’re looking a bit sad from a sudden drop in RH (experimenting) otherwise they are outgrowing the tent and the light is 12-14” away (as high as it goes). Moving them into the flower tent shortly once my harvest is fully dried.
Day 42
16 Dec 20: Wrapping up 6 weeks from seed. In the flower tent just giving them one more week to adjust to the flowering lights 28”. @ 60 watts and to recover from the last topping
Day 47
21 Dec 20: Leaf stripped almost everything except the top nodes. Set to 12/12 for flower.
Day 48
22 Dec 20: seems like plants maxed out the pot size. Liking the added humidity much more. Haven’t seen any additional vertical growth in the past week or two. Allowed the plants to bush out for even canopy.
Day 49
23 Dec 20: top dressed plants with some nutrients for start of flower
Day 53/Flower 1 (F1)
27 Dec 20: now seeing pistils shooting from the bud site. Very few but this is where I count flowering.
Day 55/F3
29 dec 20: did a heavy leaf strip. While examining the plants I found a aphid nymph exoskeleton, further inspection I found 4 more. One adult and 3 young juveniles. I went with a heavy defoliation (very) to minimize additional eggs hatching. Spraying with Ferminator plant wash and a few drops of peppermint oil. While spray daily a few hours to before lights on.
D66/F14
09 Jan 21: coming along nicely. Soil ph is good, bit of N claw, appears the strain likes lower N amounts. Could be caused by a few variables in the organics but overall healthy.
Day 75/F23
18 Jan 21: moving alone, buds are decent size. Been seeing small trichomes for little over a week or so. Watering approx 2-3 litres every 3-4 days.
Day 79/F27
22 Jan 21: top dressed 2-8-4 power bloom, glacial rock dust, rock phosphate 0-9-0 and flowering microbes.
Day 80/F28
23 Jan 21: still dealing with small aphid population. Spraying with ferminator and peppermint oil. Selective defoliation and spot checking.
Day 87/ F35
30 Jan: Nice development, #2 is much frostier than #1. Should be expecting to see some size stacking on the buds now. Fade really setting in/beginning now.
Day 99/F47
11 Feb 21: going strong still about a week or two left. Will begin checking trichomes prior to darkness and chopping. Water accordingly.
Day 100/F48
12 Feb 21: check trichomes which are all cloudy with about 10% amber up on top buds. 48 hours of darkness before chopping the plants and washing the buds.
Day 102/F50
14 Feb 21: Chop Day. Did a three bucket bud wash system (5 Gal) to remove fine contaminants.
Bucket 1: 2 cups of 28% Hydrogen peroxide
Bucket 2: 1 cup lemon juice/1 cup Baking Soda
Bucket 3: Dechlorinated tap water.
Nice warm, euphoric and mildly energetic sativa dominant high, no paranoia or anxiety. Definitely hit harder than I expected. buds dried to be quite small and not very dense.
Chopped 14 Feb 21, bagged the buds after 4 days. Drying was less than ideal but can’t really fight low 40% humidity with central air during winter. Will cure for 14-21 and begin trimming suitable buds. Larf and popcorn will go into the freezer to be processed later on.
Feeding early in Seedling? Amazing. I should try that. I am planning on starting my 3 step feed on the 5th week, which i will consider week 1 Veg stage
Good healthy looking plant thou! 🔥💪
@Four20, well The nutrients are organic so it’s really the soil microbiology that is doing the work. It usually takes about a week before they really are active breaking down nutrients. I could use straight substrate and only amend once I transplant from my starting cups. I like to have nutrients available at the plants discretion as it usually takes about 7 days for the microbiology to ramp up and really start making the nutrients bio-available to the root system .
I was told that these outdoor seeds (which can be grown indoors) are not reliant on photoperiod/light for kicking the vegetative plants into the flowering growth stage. This allows for short outdoor growing times and if you prune them, they perceive that stress as time to leave the vegetative stage. These Landrace seeds are designed to switch to flowering once they receive any environmental stress (deleafing, pruning, cold water temperatures, etc.). They are designed for flowering as soon as they are stressed.
@@Travazaurus,
“Hi Matthew,
The breeder who developed these seeds provided some feedback which may answer your questions regarding this strain. I was told that these outdoor seeds (which can be grown indoors) are not reliant on photoperiod/light for kicking the vegetative plants into the flowering growth stage. This allows for short outdoor growing times and if you prune them, they perceive that stress as time to leave the vegetative stage. These Landrace seeds are designed to switch to flowering once they receive any environmental stress (deleafing, pruning, cold water temperatures, etc.). They are designed for flowering as soon as they are stressed. However, the Headband seeds would not flower if stressed by pruning and are designed to grow using standard cultivation practices that you are already using.
I hope this was informative and possibly answered your question. If you have more questions, I will always provide feedback.
Take care and stay safe

@matt306420, odd when I reached out to the LP who produced these, their QA Manager stated they were photoperiod feminized seeds. I guess I will find out soon.
