Second Grow

A bunch of seeds came in today. So I planted one of each but two of these AUTO CARAMELICIOUS FEMINIZED. 1 AMNESIA HAZE FEM, 1 GRANDADDY PURPS FEM, 1 WHITE WIDOW MAX AUTO FEM, 1 WHITE LSD AUTO FEM, 1 AUTO K47 FEM.

All my plants seem to grow slower than everyone else. I use to garden years ago in a field. not in a closet. My last grow was OG Kush reg. seeds and was a male. free seed was a girl. Now I'm using auto and fem. so I;m not wasting my time with raising any more boys. Intend to use my 2 x 4 grow tent for blooming (18hrs) and room for growing (12hrs). Fish tank for sprouts and clones.

I'm still using the FloraGro, Micro, and Bloom for hydro and dirt, but for the Coco I'm using Canna Coco. I'm watching what others are doing while trying to learn the best way to grow. Ok what i was looking for in others is fimming procedure. Did not find exactly what I was looking for. Scared to cut but I did. I cut the Caramelious in Coco first it was the biggest. After a couple of days She is looking nice so I did the rest.

These plants seem to be growing faster than the first Grow. 4/19 all were topped. After some growth it became obvious. the caramelious is so thick I'm directing the growth of the limbs outward to give the enter growth room to grow.

I was trying LST a branch broke on the Caramelious so I will let them grow naturally now. It did seem to be working but natural works too.

Did a big trim today. watched a lot of videos and cut. Update plants are growing rapid.

Caramelious is just starting to see signs of Bloom. No sign of Bloom on others.

A lot of growth this week. I added and extra gallon between the three Coco's. I may have been starving them for water. I'm using an Auto watering system (homemade) and have been adding time-on a little extra every week. So at this time I'm watering three times a day (every 8 hrs) for four minutes each time. the plants are setting in tubs on 13" hubcaps so they wont ever set in stagnate water. When the plants were little some overflow would come out the bottom. I used it on outside plants in the yard. I haven't had any in a while adding an extra gallon and still haven't seen any overflow. Overflow is over watering. trying to find happy amount. But it drains so you really can't over water? 5/15/18 now an inch a day. Leaves are drooping shortly after lights go out. I seen this with my DWC OGkush but just went away. I stop giving nutrients first. That didn't do it. Now I have 1/2 nutrients in feeder but cut the feeder off. I think I have been drowning my plants so im laying off for a day.

never did figure out the problem it just worked itself out, somewhat. It's not as bad but leaves still drop a little.

So the leaves have stop drooping. This is good now buds are forming nicely. If these look like my oldest Virgin. I will be plenty fine with that.

This should take care of me for a while.

Ok. Week 16. I am starting week 10 of flowering on a 8 to 9 week flowering plant. It is close but I will not make the same mistake twice. This plant will go full term. My first grow I was impatient and picked my first to early. The trichomes where cloudy put not amber as you can see in photos above the trichomes are changing increasing the THCA.

On week 10 of flowering. Probably one more week after this week. Hard to believe that My wife and I smoked up the last harvest and jonesing again.

Testing as we go bud branches falling over. My excuse to cut it off and dry it.

Good body stone, Head stone, and sometimes a Headrush after hit. The Trichomes are mostly cloudly some amber, maybe 40% to 50% amber. Wife and I were happy with taste and stone to go ahead and harvest it. I have been sampling as we go and just getting better. Better than commercialized flower. I will take the caramelious Coca next but I will wait to at least 50% of trichomes turn amber. I have sampled it. It is a very intense high, Maybe a week or two on it.

Caramelious has a great high as it stands. but I will keep going with it for another week.

—

I have a humidifer now. This harvest dried in three days. still turned out good. not too harsh and curing will take some of that out.

—

This plant I saved by cutting the flat leaves the seed starts with, this stunted the grouth of the plant but it servied.

With the grow room empty I can use it to dry. The first caramelious dryed in three days so now I have a humidifier, I had purchased a dehumidifier, but it's like buying PH solution. You always need one or the other. I alway buy the wrong one first. I did not over dry it, It turned out not being harsh. now the humidifer I have maintains a 55%RH. this should dry smooth.

Very good strain. Helps with my back pain. A very high yield. 17 oz in one plant. Sorry but I can relax. I have enough smoke to last a while. more than ever expected. Time to start cooking with cannabis. See yaw next year.
