Sativa Strong Strains

Hello all, I went 5 for 6 on the beans in the paper towel. I think its just because the beans were old, lets hope the 4th on of the BDH pops. I got the tent reset and the 5 gallon pots filled with a new brand of Coco Royal Gold Tupur, pronounced (two-per), was designed with the idea feeding your plant as much and often as possible. It is a blank slate to create your own high performance feeding regimen. As a coco fiber based soilless medium, it requires high levels of calcium and magnesium to unlock its true potential. With an astounding balance of oxygen and water holding capacities, Tupur can be watered up to 1-6 times a day! INGREDIENTS: coco fiber, aged forest materials, perlite, basalt. My hydro shop was out of the brand I normally use so the sales rep recommended this one so I gave it a huge blast of ROOT WIZARD and CAL MAG and CLONE X for the liquid baby food. I also mixed in some AZOMITE, ROCK PHOSPHERUS and GREEN SAND in to the Tuper so it should have enough feed to get by on the first 2 weeks. got to keep the seed moist and it should pop. Thanks for reading my comments smash like of your a fan of saliva's 😁 till next week, be safe

Hello again, It is week 2 and we are cruising along, It took about 3 days for the trans plants to get settled in and start spiting out new nodes, looking at the time lapse they really started to take off an the 15th. Unfortunately I had some old grow data left on the SD card and it did not get the last 4 days, this has been corrected and we should get a full 7 days of time-lapse for week 3 The reboot looks like it is taking off, I hope it will establish its self in the pot this one will be a week behind in VEG so it will not be as big as her sisters, Just Rain water for now PH @ 7.0 leaving the amendments to due their job until week 3 and then I will start with the Emerald Harvest 3 part line at full strength per the feed chart. so far so good. stay safe and Merry Christmas.

Greetings, Week 3 and their first liquid feeding. the Strawberry Ice are really doing well the Blue dream haze are coming along nut not as fast as the Strawberry Ice. Time will tell what strain will produce. the reboot is coming along as well I will veg these for another 2 to 3 weeks and that should give the reboot time to fill out a little. Im going to top next week and then the last week before I flip them to flower. I want to do a Scrog on these but i have had little success with this technique in the past. got to do some home work on the SCROG if you have any advice please comment below. thanks and Merry Christmas to all. Topped the 5 the reboot still to small.

Happy New Year GD people, lets put this one way behind us and look forward to the light at the end of the tunnel, its darkest before the dawn so stay lifted and safe. This weeks time lapse was a big bucket of suck! the camera was not on any plant just pointed at the floor of the tent you can see a little in the corner but all in all an epic fail. The plants did not care however, they responded well to the topping and they are getting really bushy. I raised my lights to try to help them stretch. The Strawberry Ice is a tour de force in the veg stage. The Blue Dream Haze is about average and the reboot is coming along. This Royal Gold coco "Tupur" says it can be watered up to six times a day. I have not had to water these girls for about 3-4 days the media really retains the moisture I am afraid if I water more frequently I will rot the roots. My watering is based on the pot weight. If they are heavy let them dry out and water when light. I'm giving them a late veg feeding per the Emerald Harvest 3 part nutrient series feeding chart with an added blast of CAL MAG. The TUPRU says on the bag it needs the extra CAL MAG. Time to LST these ladies for the next 2 weeks then flipping them to flower. gonna adjust the camera and hope to get a good shot the the LTS bounce back. TTFN.

Welcome back looks like the topping went well these ladies are going 70s porn "so bushy" the blue dream haze i will leave as is and just lst on the scrog as they grow into it. lolly popped the 3 Strawberry ice and LST them with some foam wire and clips. the reboot looks like it might be an different phenotype by the look of its leaves. just a CAL MAG watering this week one more week of veg and I will flip these into flower. I have watched a you tube video on transition and it has been stated that 36 hrs. of dark will trigger a hormone response in the plant and help it flower faster? GD peeps please chime in and let me know your thoughts. till then stay safe stay happy and stay lifted.

Greetings and salutations GD peeps. Let the peaceful transition of flower begin! It is the first week of flower and the scrog is filling out nicely. I had some issues with a GFI popping and my lights would miss a few hours in the 18/6 light shedule over the last week. Rather than stress them any more than they already have been with the mini blackouts I flipped them to flower this week. I also changed the circuit the Tent was on and it seems to be consistent. A massive feeding this week for early flower, I bumped the bloom by 2 ml/gal on top of the normal feeding chart. My rational is I have topped these ladies and there are far more bud sites than before, will see if it has any effect + or - I have also done some selective defoliation to promote light pentation to the lower bud sites that have branched out from the topping 2 weeks ago. I have a small number of LEDs on one of my lights that have stopped working. The light an older amazon Chinese cheap O has 85% of the lights working. My footprint of the tent to the w/sqft is with in range. I have read and heard 35-50 watts per square foot of area as a general rule is good. now you can get in to PAR and lumens etc. but that's a whole different conversation. The light might be why the GFI was popping? I will figure that out after the grow. for now its all about FLOWER POWER and the scrog fulfilling its destiny. peace ya'll be kind to your fellow humans and hybrids.

Ah nothing like a good stretch, Week 2 of flower after the massive transition feeding of 1800 ppm and no sign of nutrient burn so the media and nuites seem to be a winner. In the last feeding I doubled the watering, the second half was just water PH'ed to 6 for two reasons, dilute the 1800 ppm and to promote a deep watering for the roots. I let them dry out till the fan leaves started to wilt on one of the Strawberry Ice and after a deep watering of just water again this week they bounced back. I wanted to make sure the food from the last feeding is used up and also a mini flush before the next feeding for the flowering stage. I am going to go higher with the P & K % on top of recommended chart feeding. I want to play around with the numbers as a lot of growers have their own special sauce recipe. Based on these two strains they look pretty healthy, next week will be a lollipop on the bottom 1/3 to the canopy. as to promote air flow and stretch they are getting pretty thick and bushy still tucking the stems to fill out the scrog completely. The one BLUE DREAM HAZE is a different phenom by the look of it lets see how it turns out its a little shorter than her sisters, Please ;eave a comment good or bad I love to hear from you folks. TTFN

WEEK 3 of flower, A lot went on this week. The watering's in between feeding were made up of CAL MAG and SILICA and I boosted the P & K in the feeding, another round of defoliation and a deep watering after the feeding dried up from last week. I have seen a minuscule amount of nutrient burn only on a few leaves, 1 or 2 at most. It looks like the increase in canopy can handle the extra food, If you see the time lapse it was in 8 days and the stretch is very apparent a super speed version at the end ala Gary Numan,

Hey, now were cooking, week 4 of flower and I see the stretch on the Time-Lapse. I am working on a watering system to replace the hand watering, It is becoming more difficult to get the 3 back plants so I got some goodies on amazon to make a semi-automatic system. nothing on a timer I'll just flip the switch on and off to feed or flush, more on that next week. so far they are starting to bud, I took some of my Feminized pollen and rubbed a bud on one of each strain, I hope to get a cross if not the I'll still get buds. so the Royal gold Tupur really holds the moisture these things can go for 3-4 days with out water. That makes me nervous with the RH at 73% I might have to put on the Dehumidifier on and set it to 50%-55% RH. ok they If you have any thoughts or comments feel free to, Be safe GODZILLA vs KONG in March... I got a chub just thinking about it.

Week 5 of flower cotton balls are forming Starting the heavy flower feeding and using the rain rings on the pots see video, so far so good just waiting for these ladies to bulk up I have one light that is getting replaced on the next grow as is has some leds not lighting up so its running at 70% and the plant in the lower left corner is showing it its way smaller than the other 5,,, oh well, till next time be safe.

Week six of flower, the 1/2 way point, I might have been a little heavy handed on the bloom nuites this week back to back heavy feedings has given me some burn edges on one of the plants. The pots are still heavy from this weeks feeding. I put them on drain trays to help dry them out a little faster as I do not want root rot or PM, They are starting to stack up and bulk up so Ime gonna just water this week and check the run off to see where the PPM is I bet its high, so I will chime in in a few days and tell you what's up. I have spoken.

I think the flush helped, It had the run off after this feeding at 300 ppm so the back to back heavy feedings not a good idea, have some burned leaves and lost some time lapse days but they seem to be doing ok. got 4-5 more weeks till finish I think I will let them go as long as i can to get all the buds to develop. of the 4-5 weeks left I will feed lightly 2 more times and water in-between until the 2 weeks of flush. I really need a new light with white LEDs the color correction is all over the board. any recommendations for lights let me know. be safe.

The home stretch week 8 of flower, Got a good look under normal light and they are really dark green. I think there is to much Nitrogen in the mix I was going to give one last feeding of Honey Chome and King Kola but I am on the fence... just water this last cycle and I think that's all I'll give until finish, maybe some Honey Chome in the next watering, I really want them to start to fade. and the dark green is freaking me out a little to much N. They are starting to frost up and they are SATIVA dominate strains looks like another 3-4 weeks before they finish. The smell is different between the two strains, The Haze is in both for sure with the earthy-sweet citrus profiles with an almost a sweet-and-sour flavor but there is a definite difference between the two, The Blue Dream Haze is frosty for sure and has a Pine/Fuel/Sweet smell and the Strawberry Ice is Way Fruity/Sweet/Pine vey complex smells and they are starting to smell need to change the carbon filter, I was hoping to do it after they come down but it might need to be changed sooner. so Enjoy the Pics and the Video Time lapse. Let me know what you think about the green in the leaves and any experienced Haze Growers please chime in on the 10-12 weeks I want to go in flower should I feed one more time or just start the flush this soon? Let me know, Stay safe. I'm waiting to get my vaccine I am so ready to share a huge doobie with fellow smokers once the pandemic is over. See ya next week.

One more week I think, just flushed today and checked the run off the PH is at 6,4 and the PPM on 5 of the 6 plants was 330 the one with the burned tips had 665 not to my surprise, but that would explain the nutrient burn, the trichomes are cloudy and there are a lot of amber as well so want to flush this week and hope the fade starts so I can harvest with a fully flushed plant and a good ratio of cloudy to amber trichomes. I know now that I should not have given that last feeding a week ago and should of started the flush but live and learn, 1st time growing these, also the time lapse did not take a whole week not recorded I am super pissed, I will up load a real time video in a day or 2 under regular light, till then hope you all in the states get your Stimulus Check this week end, C ya

last week 48 hrs. of dark started gonna chop them on Monday looks like its a pretty good ratio of Amber to Cloudy Trikes the Blue dream haze in the back could of went longer but its time to bring this to an end and get a new light for a new grow. i need a new time lapse camera as well another failed week of time lapse,

When you don't get what you want you get experience, This was a lack luster grow in that I was really expecting a huge yield with the scrog. but the facts are, it was my first time with this strain and sativa dominate as well, the light died the over feeding in late flower and not letting the plant tell me when it was done and in my opinion chopping to early made the perfect storm 3 LBS. wet they dried for 10 days at 70F and 50% RF and all that water weight went with it, SI#1 1lbs 4 oz wet SI#1 56gm buds 50gm larffy trim SI#2 1lbs 2 oz wet SI#2 26gm buds 41gm larffy trim SI#3 1lbs 3oz wet SI#3 20gm buds 42gm larffy trim TOTAL 3 lbs 9oz wet TOTAL 102 gm buds 133gm larffy buds

These were all pretty Uniform in height and weight even with #3 being replanted 2 weeks in, lots of Haze smell diesel and pungent on the front end and some sweet at the tail, I should of let these go a few more weeks I think it would be better. I have read and have heard that the flowering time the breeders recommend is based on a 1000w set up. and light plays an important roll in yield as far as flowering goes Its all about time. and maybe next time I will grow these to a more perfect pant. but this round as a grower I give myself a 6 out of 10 got some buds to some and turned the trim and larf to hash, not a huge return and the Trichomes were mainly in the 25 micron range with a minimal amount in the 76 micron bag. so My thinking is that these were all small and under developed trichomes, this leans into my theory that they could have gone another 3 or for weeks, Failure has been my greatest teacher and I really enjoy this hobby. Next grow will be an Organic Dry Amendment Auto Flower with new lights no more Blurple import lights. I got my 1st vaccine shot. hope you all are staying safe and lifted.
