Sweet Seeds Cream Caramel Germ complete 11/26 Not yet transplanted
ILGM LSD/Green Crack Germ Complete 11/16
Fast Buds FFT-7 Germ Complete 11/15
Fast Buds FFT-2 Germ Complete 11/29
Will add others if they come up
At ILGMs advice dropped the rest of the Gold Leaf (3) to find out if any are good, in the water 12/1
Have two more in water but neither worth mentioning them just sit there no tail at all FFT-1 may be ok but doubt it
Side note have used over a pint of 30% H2O2 during this grow, it was the only tool in our kit for this and it only useful for those that germed ok and grew.
12/2
First new pics since problems hit grow is currently five plants with some in germ so hope for more but not counting on things till they happen.
If this is is it I am happy can fill a room with clones
Diary is still not connected to my pull down
Planted one FFT-1 into coco from water. Not real hopeful has a tail but micro, coco is paid for so planted it
12/4
Direct Planted FFT6/7/8 - two sativa one indica - to try and insure a full tent not seeing anything out of the Gold Leaf nor the FFT1
Only adding them to grow if they come up ok
12/5
One Gold Leaf is up but its really struggling even money on this one.
She is picking up a bit, almost dampened off but got it in time.
Gave just water and h2o2 a few drops seems to be working - could be huh
No activity on the FF1
12/6
Gold Leaf not going to make it just too messed up and weak. so 0-5 on the Gold Leaf
FF1 still a blank as well as the two other Gold Leafs
FFT-6 showing a little green
May have a Wedding Ch Cake up as well, that took a long time not sure what we will do with it exactly but she is welcome. Was the last seed of it too 😋
12/7
What's going on in germ:
Wedding Cake is looking good
FF6 is ok
GL is actually looking ok, she is a fighter first true leaves have appeared
FF8 is fighting a difficult sac keeping it wet with the same distilled water and few drops of h2o2 same for all
FF7 seems to be about to break through.
No other activity on FF1 nor 2 other GL
Wife wants to do a solo grow so thinking one of these may fill that bill have to see how it works out on extra plants.
keep em in germ till its time to move em out to veg tent.
If things go well think I can bring in one sativa, the GL, and maybe one more into the Bond grow if we put it in a small pot but likely use them as another grow or let my wife do a solo cup grow.
See if I have any 2 gallon laying around
Sac is off the FF8 dam thing would have killed it
12/8
The goings on in germ:
Have 5 out of 8 planted up and looking healthy. Same ones as yesterday.
Even the Gold Leaf is looking strong, thank god for the properties of H2O2 it's usefulness in germ cannot be over stated.
From soften shells and sacks to killing bad microbes to bringing a little life to a plant.
Nice to have it around
Going to be using it more often
12/9
FFT-6 ready to move into the veg tent today so its naming day for the girl will post it when she is moved.
Others are doing fine may be seeing some activity on another gold leaf maybe not been a while
FF8 trying hard to dampen off, just not a strong germ after all it seems
12/10
Got the Gold Leaf and FFT-8 mixed up so correcting the diary. It is the FFT-8 thats dampening off given very low dose nuets with h2o2 and try to pick her up.
Gold Leaf doing ok at least one is anyway
12/12
Shutdown the propagator in that room, there is a problem in there and thinking its a type of mold.
Moved all into the veg tent topped with perlite and mos-bits fed em and hope for the best.
No h2o2 at this time want the mos-bits to work a while.
12/18
ILGM made good on their germ warranty so they are now in the same class as Fast Buds for customer service.
Sent out a new pack of seeds good people
12/31
Last germ entry the sugar cane and FFT-1 never produced but the gold leaf came around and got two to survive.
Done with germ
This is a reconstituted diary made to aid us in our grow the other grows have been suspended but will leave them for now for reference
Too many germ issues to remain on original course been through 16 seeds to get maybe 7 plants if we lucky, five if not, less if we should just quit and start over.
Plan to make up production with a clone run following.
I will pick up the grow at this point some plants still in germ but have little hope for them
Week 2
Pussy, Octo, and Plenty transplanted to 3 gal pots the new Chew Mee (FF2)is making its way through germ to the veg tent show be there this afternoon
Solitaire (Cream Caramel) be in veg tent also this afternoon.
Holding our breath here
For some reason this diary is not in my pulldown list (Yea GD) have it book marked but wont spend much time on it till its right - GD notified
We have found the main issue contaminated rockwool, mold spores, the autos never had a chance and the photos struggled
Secondary problem is just the old bugaboo of bad seed which always seems to make an appearance lol
Wife is handling the sick plants I am trying to get the tent filled.
12/2
First new pics since problems hit grow is currently five plants with some in germ so hope for more but not counting on things till they happen.
If this is is it I am happy can fill a room with clones
Diary is still not connected to my pull down
Waiting on results from germ see what we can get
Diary is fixed removed zombie diaries caused the other night.
12/3
All diaries consolidated into this one have been removed leaving this as the one true Bond
So we can start week 3 fresh
Week 3
Solitaire (Cream Caramel) transplanted into 3 gal
Staying on seedling feed tonight working her up tomorrow
All ok thats up
Wish we could have recovered from the problems faster but we still have a grow so lets get some pot going!
12/3
Gave the 3 larger plants a dose of kangaroots 10ml/gal
12/4
Doing ok no new issues keeping an eye on Chew Mee (FFt-2) she should be getting close to transplant day so watching growth.
12/5
Pussy (FF7) has gotten to the point of topping the next node, day or two.
Octo and Plenty be a day or so behind that
Solitaire looking excellent no transplant stress and already growing again
Chew Mee looking well seems to be building roots so transplant just anytime soon as veg growth kicks
This is The Plan 😇
As these photos recover from topping will be moved into the Flower tent as we could fit a small car in there right now.
THis will continue for each plant as they ready they move until the flower tent is full (we hope) any remaining (if the creek dont rise) will be kept in the auto tent till we dcide to flip tht tent to 12-12.
Everything is back on track-ish. Not the arrogant magnum opus we planned but decent and fills our goals
Pics
Increasing Grow Nuets 20% for larger plants growth spurts incoming it seems
Chew staying at seedling dose till after transplant
12/6
We are adjusting all the diaries to end weeks on Sunday, this is for our convenience so this diary will be a couple of days early (should update on Tues) is all.
Thanks
12/6 Week 4
Pussy to be topped tomorrow or the next day she has 10 inches looking for 12 for top and 18-20 for flip.
Rest of the girls coming along well
Solitaire's feed is the low dose 5ml/gal each of Grow A&B PH 6
Chew Mee is at 1ml each per liter (3.79 ml/gal) same PH
No organics (kangaroots excluded) at this point and frankly not seeing the call for them, the CocoTek is pretty complete.
12/8
FF7 recovering from topping nicely even grew an inch so will be in flower tent real soon,
Others coming along ok
12/9
Did some plant moving to get a better environment for the veg tent
More light more room more ease for the grower
Meet Bambi FFT-6 moved from propagator to veg tent
12/11
Top dressed with perlite try and impede those fungus gnats, we are not the source think they coming from a wet spot in the walls.
Medicinals doing great may even give a bit of recharge
Others fine just early veg
12/13 Week 5 and a big week it will be
With all the problems of bad seed, bad rock-wool, and fungus gnats (just to add insult to injury) we still got a grow.
All have been treated and top dressed screw those bugs let them eat neem oil and mosquito bits.
The big girls in pots are good but the smaller in solo cups were damaged found the source of the critters but may not be able to eliminate it landlord let the roof get a little too leaky,
That's ok we got this now.
Ok fun stuff:
Octo and Plenty will be topped today, its time
Pussy is hitting the lower height range where she can be put into Flower. She has hit 16 inches expecting a 100-150% stretch so really want 18" before moving her.
Waiting on a harvest there first in a couple of days so should be perfect.
Small guys took a big hit from the bugs flushed them with 2.5% h2o2 as a last hurrah for the gnats last night then gave ALL some recharge this AM to give them a bit of help.
12/14
Order of flipping, Pussy (FF7) Plenty (Grn Crk) Octo (LSD) this is based on best guess (guess it is) on stretch
Prob dont want the Green Crack (150%) getting too large before moving her, know how that can go 😏
Do want the LSD (100%) pretty good size and the F7(125%) is just ready to go any day. yeah I know wild assed guesses
Octo and Plenty are topped and look well, very bushy already
Ah screw it moved Pussy into Flower it got crowded in veg and she is 17.75 inches, close enough
Solitaire moves in to replace Pussy in the Medicinals... yes its a good one as well.
Dont judge... we all did it!
Pics
Have four different feeds for this grow so will be only tracking Pussy from now on...
love this grow
Heh
The veg tent big girls - 24ml/gal Grow A/B + 2ml/g kanga
The veg tent small girls - 10ml/gal " " + 2ml/g kanga
The veg tent seedlings - 2ml/L " " +0.5ml/L kanga
The sick plants - 1ml/L " " +0.5ml/L kanga
Wont change what Pussy gets till tomorrow as she is in for a very long day today.
Yep love it
Will be working on the roots a while given how those things messed with those.
All plants getting some kangaroots affected plants will stay on a low dose, 0.5ml/L till they turn around.
!2/16
We have a case of mass survival here folks, the small affected plants are living that should not still be here.
Not sure what we will do with em but welcome to the zoo girls.
Wife has even managed to turn around a FF2 I was sure was doomed. Yeah she is a keeper
Counting chickens perhaps but looks so much better
Still dealing with gnats but they no longer dangerous those at least we understand.
Each cycle there are fewer
CLONE DAY FOR PUSSY!
Been looking forward to this have the propagator set up in its own tent we will take up to six clones from her as we may want up to 3 for the grow.
Octopussy and Plenty will go into the Flowering tent tomorrow.
Chew Mee growing again, looks better
Solitaire just looks great
Bambi needs transplanting - 2 gal she is sativa
The sick germs are turning around finally have them covered to prevent any further nastiness though not think its an issue any longer.
See what we get here
12/17
#HisHope has saved another, meet Dink an FFT-2 she will likely stay in a one gallon pot we will see what she does
This is particularly notable as she is in rock-wool was like the kiss of death
The Medicinals are together in the Flowering tent Plenty and Octo will stay on their veg feed a bit longer.
Bloom nuets introduced to Pussy she is stretching very slightly
Germs are improving the Gold Leaf and FF8 doing best so far.
12/18
ILGM standing by their word and making good on the Gold Leaf, new pack on its way. Hope one of these will come on up.
Clone day for Octopussy and Plenty six from each
12/19
Adjusted feed for the medicinals increasing bloom decreasing grow
12/20 Week 6 And first in Flower
Flowering nuets increased Bloom as listed
Large plant veg- 20ml Grow A/B 2ml kanga
small plant veg 10 ml Grow A/B 2 ml kanga
seedlings 2ml/Liter Grow/A/B kind of stuck in a time warp trying to get them growing again will be using recharge anything I can think of they need to grow now.
Green Crack is flipping fast FF7 and LSD progressing normally 50-50 bloom and grow for next days.
Will be defol this week
12/21
Further adjusting feed will adjust based on what the plants do
Want to hold it here through the stretch
Plants in veg tent doing well, even the seedlings are growing again.
Defoliated Octopussy(LSD) in particular on her bottom end. Did minor defol to Pussy and Plenty top ends..
12/22
Our single growing Gold Leaf has been transplanted into a 3 gal pot.
Meet Tiffany Case from Diamonds are Forever - great Bond girl
Solitaire shows clearly the gnats were getting serious to even the larger plants.
Watching
12/23
Gave another Neem oil treatment to growing surfaces on all plants. Just a preventative still a couple of em around
Adjusted the Large plant veg feed to 24ml/gal Grow
Topping day for Solitaire and Chew Mee
Defoliation for the flower tent will continue
Seedlings have really come around FINALLY lol growing again across the board 👍 the four remaining will go into 2 gal pots should things continue to improve.
Works out as thats all the 2 gals I have
12/24
Some pics all is well or as well as it ever gets
Gnats are history, broke the cycle utterly. Dont play with those things they are dangerous hit em hard on every level you can.
Dink has really turned around and really growing , HisHope did an outstanding job on that plant
Bambi has started her growth as well
Ending knagaroots on the large plants till they go to the Flower tent for that stretch
Will continue lose doses on smaller plants and Flowering plants until the stretch ends-ish
Got roots sticking out all over the joint lol
Its gotten to the point we need a run down of the plants in this grow since it started as four separate grows and almost ended up as zero :
* denotes severely impacted
# denotes marked for cloning - strictly medicinal strains plan for 8 clones two of each
Pussy Galore - Fast Buds FFT-7 in flower #
Octopussy - ILGM LSD in flower #
Plenty O'Toole - ILGM Green Crack in flower #
Solitaire - Sweet Seeds Cream Caramel late veg (lightly affected) #
Chew Mee - FB FFT-2 late veg
Bambi - FB FFT-6 early veg *
Dink - FB FFT-2 early veg *
Tiffany Case - ILGM Gold Leaf early veg *
Thumper - FB FFT-8 seedling *
Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7 seedling *
Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf seedling *
Kissy Suzuki - Fast Buds Wedding Cheese Cake seedling *
ICU - recovery in doubt though still keeping them alive
Wedding Cheese Cake
Strawberry Pie
This is what happens sometimes when problem hit, better than the alternative I reckon
12/28 Week 7
Wow well looking around there are a lot of plants not sure how we will reconcile space issues with so many of them recovering but glad to have the problem.
More than likely convert the veg tent but still damn
In Flower
Pussy Galore (FF7) is showing their classic stretch to the ceiling, working on it.
Octopussy(LSD) and Plenty (GC) doing very well look great really
In veg - big girl feed 24ml/g grow + occasional Kangaroots
Solitaire (CC) and Chew Mee (FF2) moving towards size to flower couple more inches needed to compete with the big girls.
Bambi (FF6) Right behind them by a few days
Dink(FF2) has now graduated to the big girls - great job #HisHope
In veg - little girl feed 10ml/g grow + kangaroots low dose
Tiffany Case - Gold Leaf
Thumper - FB FFT-8
Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7
Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf
Kissy Suzuki - Fast Buds Wedding Cheese Cake
Seedling - 2ml/L grow
Strawberry Pie will name on transplant should all go well
Typical Bond at the end of the first act everything looks ok but a mess
Issue is in two weeks will have 7 plants in flower another bunch can be ready in 3-4 weeks if I slow things down nuet wise.
Thing is the clones will be coming along in about 6 weeks with planned 8 plants ready for flower with prob a week or two remaining on the first three to flower.
MUHAHAHAHAHA I am happy. But I really hate fungus gnats
12/29
Chew Mee and Solitaire are in the Flowering tent made as nice with the Medicinals as I could, they were getting out of hand.
FF7 is just a stretchy girl, this was expected and did what we could with gentle bend and secure within a cage to keep things manageable.
Octopussy is a perfect lady, growing very well, no cage for her.
Plenty required a little discipline so she got a cage.
Three more plants headed this way within a week or two, FF2 FF6 Gold Leaf
12/30
Three FFT-7 clones have rooted very well.
Transplanted into solo cups to begin the contest for the coveted two F7 slots in the grow.
Other clones still no roots but its way early
12/31
Late night staff meeting on how to proceed.
Clones - ... are on their own in the small tent, will use the small tent and seedling station to bring them along but will veg in the small. Just do the best we can here should be fine.
No more clones will be taken that would only make the space issues worse.
Flowering tent... I can take two more plants but they will have to be flipped small-ish (13") and grow more vertical than wide so no topping on Dink and Bambi which will flower in this tent.
Medicinals... should have been flipped smaller I reckon, hard to get that right but they are large and healthy so keeping them smaller is easier than making them bigger. Not really higher than we wanted just not sure when the stretch will end and the stretch is always out and up. Pussy is the largest so far but Octo is catching up at least in height. Plenty doing great love how she is growing.
Solitaire and Chew Mee outstanding looking plants. Wish I had space for their clones.
Veg tent... Dink and Bambi moving toward departure in a few days
Rest of them flower here, will flip on the smallish side no real choice have to assume they will get larger than planned.
Just have to decide when, will put up the divider for the seedling area so they wont interfere with each other.
Thats it doing well
1/4 Week 8
Vids and Pics here is a run down:
In Flower tent
Full Bloom nuets
Pussy Galore (FF7) stretch has slowed
Octopussy(LSD) As tall as Pussy she hopefully is slowing
Plenty (GC) growing really nicely stretch is very manageable
Half n' Half
Solitaire (CC) Love it
Chew Mee (F2) Ditto
Bambi (F6) just arrived
In veg -
big girl feed 20ml/g grow + Kangaroots
Dink(FF2)
Tiffany Case - Gold Leaf
Thumper - FB FFT-8
Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7
Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf
Kissy Suzuki - Fast Buds Wedding Cheese Cake
Strawberry Fields - Fast Buds Strawberry Pie
Wedding Ch Cake still in recovery getting same as clones.
Clones:
All planted but three and two of those will be today
... and those were planted do not think the last one is going to root looks bad
1.5ml/L Grow + low kangaroots with a weak 1/4 str nuet foliar (no kanga)
12/5
GD wont let me add more than 8 strains (f them) so will be cranking up the Bond auto fire grow for the wedding ch cake and Straw Pie
Giving my wife those to raise so she will be growing them. I got enough to do
Soon as the plant stands get in be moving Dink into the flowering tent
Entire veg tent now on 20ml/gal of Grow A/B 2 ml/gal kanga except clones and the seedling they remain as is
Will be flipping this tent to 12-12 sometime in about a week after the clones are moved
12/6
Looking at the Flowering tent and thinking forward there is no way for me to put another plant in it without hurting the grow.
These last three that went in are going to get large-ish just like the others I hope we flipped small enough. Think so was pretty small
Reduced Bloom 2ml increased PK same think its wanted
So topped Dink to slow her down and let her widen a bit so the rest can get a bit larger, she will remain in the 4x5 and flip with the rest.
Things pretty good in the veg tent today. refuse to give up on Honey she looks like she is turning a corner. Increasing nuets a bit on her
Gold Leaf is growing great classic indica may regret not cloning them but have no way to deal with it now.
1/7
Fighting a bit with tall plants and lights think its worked out Pics with labels posted
1/8
Dropped PK back to 2.5ml/g
Pussy and Plenty doing great nice building already but Octopussy is lagging behind so may be too much PK real possible thus the cut.
Went to a high {K for the GC and F7 they burn right through it
Good progress on the plants flipping keeping them on half-half till full flower
Veg is just gorgeous only issue so far is getting too much light on some plants, she working on that.
Honey has picked up her leaves I give her a 3 of 4 chance and increasing to make it now just up to her.
1/10 Week 9
Long way to go but so long as before, things looking good
Rehung the lights picked up four more inches of height which I HAD to have or burn Octopussy.
The run down:
In Flower tent
Full Bloom nuets
Pussy Galore (FF7) stretch has ended she is bulking like crazy
Octopussy(LSD) Stretch finally ending she has more room now
Plenty (GC) Just a damn beautiful plant bulking starting great, stretch been gone for a couple of days now
Half n' Half
12ml/gal Grow 12ml/gal Bloom + kanga
Solitaire (CC) Getting larger entering full flower will switch when I see more hair
Chew Mee (F2) Ditto
Bambi (F6) Ditto as well
In auto tent switching to 12-12 today -
Still on 20ml/gal GrowA/B +kanga
Dink(FF2) Is just doing great!
Tiffany Case - Gold Leaf ditto
Thumper - FB FFT-8 Ditto
Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7 Ditto
Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf Ditto
Clones:
.75ml/L Grow A/B
All made it though not all will be selected having to start that process now as they wont want to stay in those solos very long
1/13
Reduced bloom nuets for full flower seeing a bit of sign the N is too high.
All others look solid so took it down 20% leaving PK as is
1/14
Everything got a dose of Neem oil, pots only
Some didnt like the bloom nuet drop putting it back
Wondering about the LSD/Octopussy first time growing this in photo so kind of winging it. Not sure if something is at her or just the way it grows.
Dont see anything unexpected still dealing with a small population of gnats. Prob never be rid of them until we can get toxic on em.
Auto tent is coming along began introducing bloom nuets to all
16ml/gal GrowA/B 4ml/gal Bloom
Dink, its hard to imagine that plant a month ago
Clones got a coat of Neem oil a bit of white fungus was trying to set up
12/16
Its all looking good, the issues we have we expected
Made up the last pot for the clones with about 4 gallons of coco/perlite left over out of the original 40 gallons of coco, not bad 😎
May well be the last pot I make up here, *sniff sniff* 😜
Good night and thanks for all the fish
1/17 Week 10 and wow
Ok girls are doing well not a worrisome issue to be found unless its space.
Brought Dink to the Flowering tent put Bambi in the Auto tent Dink is a very WIDE plant and thats a problem in the 4x5.
Dropping Koolbloom for a while in favor of Peak, its better its expensive but Pussy has gotten to the point of fast building so bringing it in.
Octo, Solitaire, Chew Mee and Plenty will benefit well.
Pretty much everything else as it was last week no serious changes to nuets.
We decided to go with 6 clones instead of the 9, we need a break and this keeps us under the plant limit.
1/19
Dropped Bloom 10% for Flowering plants
Reset the auto tent for easier access
Clones now in the 3x3
11/24 Week 11 and things are happening
Flowering tent:
Pussy, F7, is on finish feed today flush tomorrow she is set for a harvest in about 7-10 days
Plenty is just gorgeous pride of the tent
Octo is finally building well so good times
Chew Mee is now tallest in the tent with an inch on Octo she has to stay between the lights now
Solitaire is Growing well and building but the lack of space is showing on her
Dink is growing bushy but well
Auto tent
All on half n' half switching to full bloom shortly
Bambi is just huge keeping her in line but yeah tall girl
Thumber slow to grow does not look like she will be tall
Holly f7 doing well
Mary Gold Leaf growing well also as is Tiffany
I know the camera sucks but given all thats happening its just not a priority we are barely finding time to update diaries at all
1/25
Big nuet change
Cocotek Bloom running low cant get more for any decent price so switched the Flowering tent to Floraduo also stopped Peak as Pussy is in flush so save it for others later.
Both GHE so pretty seamless except for adding cal-mag
Pussy in her last week, progress must be made would let her go longer but needs dictate
Plenty and Octo progressing well ahead of breeder info so looking at a couple of weeks there.
Sativas reaching for the sky, Chew Mee making herself seen Dink taken off booster seat
Solitaire looking pretty gave her more room by taking some from Pussy as she finishes.
Auto tent remains on cocotek for a few more feeds but will shift as well.
Damn GD messed up again, doubled part of the nuet list so be aware the list may be wrong
Corrected list again maybe its fixed now
1/27
Flower tent
Pussy continues to finish nicely
Octo and Plenty right behind but a week or so
Others doing well
Auto Tent
Bambi is a big girl she will be moved to the flower tent to replace Pussy
Space the last frontier... and we are SHORT so continue to tweek things to get them through this
Clone tent
Clones growing a bit slow but the light situation is less than ideal for them. Only 100 watts in the tent.
F7 and LSD ready for topping GC will need more time
Plan is to flip between 12 - 14 inches after topping recovery
Will firm up plans next week on these
Ran across an idea , had we used microriza fungus in the pots for rooting the fungus gnat larva would have went after that rather than the roots themselves.
They prefer fungus but will settle for root hairs
Seeing some long term root issues in the recovered plants, think those hairs lost remain so thus having to stay on rooting hormones longer than normal
1/31 Week 12 Tent is full
Harvested Pussy Galore FFT-7 so moved in Bambi FFT-6 and Thumper FFT-8 into the tent.
Actually more room now
2/1
Swapping out the Peak for Koolbloom for a while
Gameplan:
Pushing Octo and Plenty to finish by weeks end so the clones may be handled. Hate rushing them but this grow is on a clock and we are behind.
Clone tent placed on 12-12 time for them to get going into flower, they about 12-14 inches. Expect less than 40" fingers crossed
Two clones into the auto tent space was available 4 in clone tent
Auto tent is doing well plan to remove two more plants when Plenty and Octo come out
Thats it for the week start with a harvest end with a harvest(s)
2/3
Labeled Pics of all tents
Race between Octo and Plenty right now Octo is ahead but not much
All is well(-ish) in Bondland
And Octo has won the race, spent a good bit of time with the loop looking and the LSD will be ready in 3 days.
Harvest date for Octopussy 2/6 this puts her at 53 days of flower 3 days short of ILGMs estimate.
Plenty needs another week not surprised at all her estimate from ILGM is 70 days she wont have to wait that long.
2/5
Second bulk up is proceeding on Plenty and Octo pretty sure the Soul Peak caused it which is all we were waiting on. They are getting lumpy
Octo will be chopped when this slows down doubt it was be later than Sunday but still looking at Saturday
Just keeping everything as happy as we can till the space issues work out, gave clones some PK just to intro bloom nuets during flip
2/7 Week 13
With Octopussy out of the tent brought in Mary (goldleaf) and one FFT-7 clone
All have a bit more space but not what we would want take another week for that after Plenty's harvest
Three clones in the auto tent, GC, LSD, FFT-7 two remain in clone tent
Grow is a mess but its improving
2/8
Well best I can come up with for a look down the road for Feb:
Plenty (gc) will go till the end of the week maybe a bit longer depends on space things are growing so likely not.
Solitaire (cc) , Bambi (f6) and Chew Mee (f2) go during the week of 2/22, they will go on a Soul Peak finishing feed next week.
Both Goldleaf , Mary and Tiffany, will go till mid March or so as will Holy (f7)
Autos wont finish till mid march as will Thumper(f8)
Clones finish from mid March to early April
Everyone's clock is running mid April grow ends no debate
I love the smell of napalm in the morning...
2/9
Reducing the Nitrogen across the board so 20% red in Floraduo Grow.
Some signs of very slight toxicity just getting the hang of the new nuets, good stuff so far.
2/11
Dink and Solitaire on Peak PK till finish.
2/14 Week 14 and things get interesting from here
Hell of a journey so far, do not expect that to change now
Just taking care of them and enforcing a good neighbor policy with defoliation
Without going into a lot of detail we looking at a harvest every three days or so for six weeks starting next week, grow will end 4/4 with the harvest of the Green Crack clones at @63 days of flower.
So earlier is possible
2/15 FFT-7 Clones have hit 36 inches already but should not go too much further. famous last words
2/16 Trying all of it on the same feed see how it goes, clones pretty far along think its ok.
2/17 So far so good on the feed, some concern over FFT-7 stretch so what else is new
Had to adjust the Peak running out and deliveries are messed up from weather so stretching it out
2/20 Final update on the week:
Clones are doing well only the FFT-7 proved undependable on the flowering stretch LSD and Green Crack look on track for 36 inches or less, FFT-7 headed to 4 feet
Dropping Grow again on the main flowering feed , clones remain as is, less Nitrogen is needed
Ran out of Soul Peak so full dose of KoolBloom till we get more
Bambi on the block next looks like Monday followed by Chew Mee and Dink Thurs or Friday.
Clearing this tent out so more can come in.
And that was the week that was
2/21 Week 15
Bambi goes Monday
Dink and Chew Mee go Friday
Clones doing well hope to get the remaining plants some freaking room
2/22 Readjusted Grow back to 4ml, some N def starting
Soul Peak is back on the menu girls! Got it today
2/24 Good bud building and it seems the f7 is finally ending the stretch we hope
CHew Mee and Dink on track for end of week harvest will look at it again Thursday
Mary(GL) finally building nicely
2/25
Dropped Grow to 3.4ml/gal some strains still griping about Nitrogen
One F7 still getting slowly taller, the one that doesnt need to of course
2/27
Grow back to 4ml looks like thats the lower end of it without issues.
All plants now on Soul Peak PK, clones only get 5ml/gal for now lowered Si to 1ml/gal
3/1
Know new week is due but busy
Plants that are finishing up Dink, Tiffany, Thumper, Holly are on ripening feed of 1ml/Grow 5ml/Bloom 5ml/Peak per gallon till harvest
Feed listed now reflects the Clone feed only from now on
2/28 Week 16 Bond takes aim on the finish
Clones have pretty much claimed the tent, adjusted the Peak up.
The F7s just about took over the joint
Tiffany(GL), Mary(GL), Holly(F7), Thumper(F8), Kissy(WCC) all finishing in the next week
They are now on a ripening feed of 1ml/Grow 5ml/Bloom 5ml/Peak to completion
Dink has gone into harvest processing
Good thing tent fills up quickly,
3/5
Smallest plants of the grow Thumper and Holly harvested and the extra room was needed
Five weeks remain in the grow
3/6
On track to harvest the Gold Leaf Monday
On track to end the grow around 4/3
Flower building on the clones has entered high gear upped Peak to 10ml/gal
3/8 Week 16 and things are looking like I intended back in November
F7s are huge both wide and tall so moved as far back as practical and adjusted the lights to give the entire plants coverage since the top buds are out of direct light.
LSD and green crack very well lit up as well
May put a 100w light in the bottom of the tent may not depends how they look in a couple of days
3/9
Playing with nuet changes a bit is all
3/15 Eighteenth week and finally have both grows in the same tent
Home stretch here last 3 weeks of the Bond grow been a long time coming
F-7 doing its typical great performance
Same with Green Crack they are great
But LSD, may be looking for a new breeder before growing next photo run. Just doesn't produce not sure why bad pheno maybe?
3/17
God willing and the creek dont rise...
FFT-7 Harvest 3/24, 51 days from flip
LSD Harvest 3/31, 58 days from flip
Green Crack Harvest 4/5 63 days from flip - tent down grow finally ends
3/19
Have to split up the feeds nothing else for it
Listed feed will be the Green Crack it seems to love da nuets
Reduced Feed for LSD(being difficult trying this)/FFT-7(which is finishing up)/Strawberry Pie (finishing) Kind of a compromise
Cal-Mag 1.5ml/gal
Grow 3ml/gal
Bloom 7ml/gal
Koolbloom 1.5ml/gal
6.1 PH
Its just a try to get that LSD woke up like I said bad pheno we hope otherwise getting a new breeder for it.
Added a lower end light try to get the bottom buds going, need all she has.
3/22 Week 19.... Dr. Gnat is on the run... damn long grow but its looking well
Adjusted nuets down slightly looking for a single feed for tent
FFT-7s getting to be short timers, next week for harvest
Green Crack looks just great exactly as we envisioned may be next after F7 as I may let the LSD go long, looking at 10 days-ish
LSD is well, scraggly. Just a bad pheno, checked other grows may have been induced due to stress from gnats, one of the downsides to cloning
Prob the last to harvest doing what we can here let em go long as we can but tick-tock
3/23
Adding a little Fishshit for the organic component of the Soul Peak
Tent is so close
3/24
51st day since flip (2/1) for the tent so the FFT-7s get looked at close today FB lists them as 45 days and thats pretty accurate.
Taking a good look at all of them today but know the LSD is not close and the Green Crack wont go till the F7 is processed.
If the F7 is ready may take the one most so, dry space is available for one
Giving them another day will take FFT-7-1 first followed by -2 in a day or two should all be as expected
Cutting it short the trics say go at 90% white 10% red on F7-1 a couple of day behind on F7-2
3/28 Week 20
Ending up so capping some things and just finishing on a basic light feed
Lots to do so glad they are behaving
56 days from flip shifting the Green Crack to a ripening feed for their last week:
1 ml/gal Grow
5ml/gal Bloom
1ml/gal PK
Plenty-1 harvest 3/31 Plenty-2 harvest 4/3
Set a schedule for LSD after
3/29
Got a change in schedule foisted on us so modifying things a bit
Will take both GC plants on 4/2
LSD will have to finish up within a few days from there
Too much to do too little time
3/30
Another unexpected hitch in our day, changing the harvest schedule to Green Crack ALL 3/31 all on the same finish feed time to wrap it up got stuff to do
Keep having to add BS pics due to bug in GD on Edit
4/1
Grow ends Saturday with LSD harvest
4/2
Water 6.2 only no flush
4/3
Last day of a very long challenging grow that has given us what we needed thank God
And the bond grow has ended with the LSD clone harvest.
Big grow for us and the last for some time.
Final thoughts:
I hate gnats prevention measures will be a part of our regimen going forward.
ILGM is a good breeder, Gold Leaf and Green Crack were stellar but they have some holes in their line that need stability work.
Fast Buds, it is a freaking shame they wont proceed with the FFTs, though I have to admit they need stability work as well.
Sweet Seeds Cream Caramel is a great indica, recommend it
Never let your plant count exceed your space 😎
So long and thanks for all the fish
Harvest and grow was easy just too much going on around her for good yield cant blame the plant nor genetics as she did produce.
Not expecting too much here
128 grams... 128... SMH damn fungus gnats
Easy grow not a huge yielder but there were circumstances to deal with here so very happy
Both plants finished up in the 200 gram range so good grow
Get it enjoy it
Typical Green Crack harvest, lot of leaves but easy otherwise
Lack of tent space really hurt her yield, guessing 25% less due to it
Dry weight for Plenty 322 grams nice easy final trim rock hard nugs
Two clones follow
The clones nearly identical both weigh in at 710 grams wet in dry yield later
Clones yielded 287 grams dry
She was a stretcher and it hurt her production taking it as my fault till I see what the clones do
Two years ago we began with an LSD harvest and now we end with one, rather fitting.
Clones combined wet weight 720 grams in dry over next couple of days
173 grams dry from clones
Four plants in all eventually
1/31 First of the Bond harvests, Pussy Galore first of the FFT-7s, two more follow.
Pussy Dry weight 312 grams
3/5 Holly 665 grams wet into dry - dry 98 grams
Two more F7s to go
3/25
Pussy-1 clone yields 1107 grams wet in dry --- dry yield 181 grams
One FFT-7 Remains Pussy-2 buds look a bit larger
3/28 Pussy-2 wet weight 1295 grams in dry. 242 grams dry. This concludes the FFT-7 harvests
