After my last grow working out alright, I have decided to try 4 again in my small space. Only germinating 3 for now as i have one plant from my last run needing a few more weeks. I will then start the 4th one when she is nearly ready for the chop! Not fully decided on what strain for the 4th one but have lots of options.
So i soaked each seed in water for 30 hours and planted it in jiffy plug soil that i put into small pots.
52 hours after planting Runtz was first to pop up. Another 12 hours later the Tangerine Dream and Gorilla Cookies had also joined the party. I removed each shell as they popped up.
Gorilla Cookies has an extra cotyledon so hope she doesn't grow deformed. However my last run Strawberry Pie started deformed and turned out to be frosty af!
I plan to move the 3 to their final pots in a few days, which this time is a mix of coco and all mix to a ratio of 60/40. The 4th one will go in just all mix as a test, where i will only use organic nutes.

Update 2 weeks later. Germinated 2 more, one to replace the Purple punch and one to replace the Gorilla cookies.
Started off with just de chlorinated tap water for the first 3 days. Then with voodoo and B52 after they were transplanted into their final pots.
As expected the gorilla cookies is looking a bit weird but we will see how it pans out.
Having to keep the humidity low untill my last plant finishes. Also raised the light and turned it down to 75%. Trying to keep the little ones happy as well as my plant in last few weeks of flower!
After trimming and jarring my last 3 plants I have manged to try some. With no cure they're all nice but Strawberry Pie is on a different level. Taste, smell, looks and effect are all amazing. So think this will be my 4th that i will be starting this week.

Things going well this week for Runtz and Tangerine Dream and are where i expect them to be.
Gorilla Cookies is growing slow and deformed still. I planted 2 more seeds this week which popped up after a few days. One of them is to replace the Purple Punch when she's finished and the other will most likely replace the Gorilla Cookies.
Been watering with voodoo and b52 to a ph of 6.3.
Light is 35cm away from top of plants at 60%.
Will start with topping and training next week.

Growth looking good this week. Topped the Runtz and Tangerine Dream on day 18. Started to LST their lowest branches on day 20. Going for the same star shape as ive done previously to maximise my small space.
Started feed schedule this week. Watering every other day now with feed, water, feed, water etc. Using de chlorinated tap water to a ph of 6.4.
Light is 35cm away at 65%.
Will be chopping my Purple Punch from last round tomorrow so can transplant the new ones into their final pots. Still not sure on Gorilla Cookies future. She has grown quite a bit but have another one to take her place because I thought she might not make it.

Purple Punch was ready at last so moved strawberry pie to its final pot. I decided the gorilla cookies wasn't looking too good so replaced it with a sticky beast.
Not the best week I've had. Slow growth on all of them. Temps have been very cold the past few days so that, along with overwatering I think is the main issue. Possibly ph was too high also so lowered that to 6.
I am finding coco a bit more of a challenge and will most likely go with soil again for the next round.
Runtz has started flowering and the Tange is about to.

Coming from a bad week last week, this one for a bit worse. However they seem to be back on track. I think a combination of things caused this but cant be sure. This is my first coco/soil attempt so still learning. First and main issue I think is that i was overwatering with a ph that was a bit too high. My second contribution was the temps being too low coming into the tent along with the cold water I was feeding it.
Have lowered the ph of each feed to 6 and am warming the water to room temp prior to feeding. Outside temps have got warmer and more favourable. Tangerine dream(bottom right) has perked up and taken on some colour in the leaves. Sticky Beast(too right) has perked up and also taken on some colour. Runtz(top left) is still growing slowly and leaves very yellow. Strawberry Pie (bottom left) is doing fine as she is in just soil. Topped her this week too. Decided to not top the sticky beast as she was already having a hard time so just going with lst.
Hope to try and get them all fully happy again but i already know ive kinda ruined the most crucial part so fingers crossed they bounce back good enough to still get 1z per plant!

Things looking much better this week and it feels like I'm gaining control again.
The Tangerine Dream and Runtz have carried on stretching which is great. Sticky Beast is coming along alright and the strawberry pie is also going well.
TD: 19.5cm
Runtz: 16cm
SB: 8cm
SP 8cm

They're all packing on the frost which is great. Lovely smells coming from the tent now.
I feel I have learnt some things about coco this round and wouldn't be scared to try it again. Soil was much more forgiving and more user friendly with less watering needed.
Hoping strawberry pie is going to stretch but feel like this one will be a short girl! Fingers crossed I'm wrong.
TD: 22cm
Runtz: 19cm
Sticky Beast: 18.5cm
Strawberry Pie: 8cm
Am using growdiaries to work out where i am. Not putting much effort into updating as there is no prizes for multi strain diaries so kind of lost interest.
Thanks for checking out my grow
Overall I'm happy with this week's growth. Except the strawberry pie, she has barely stretched at all! She is getting frosty and they all smell great in their own ways.
Tangerine Dream:23cm
Runtz:20cm
Sticky Beast:21cm
Strawberry Pie:9cm
Thanks for checking out my grow
Coming along nicely. All smelling great especially the Runtz.
Did some defoliation this week and turned the Runtz and TD.
Thanks for checking out my grow
Buds fattening nicely this week.
Will start using overdrive on the Runtz and Tangerine Dream next week. Another 3 weeks or so and I think they will be there. Looking at the Sticky Beast and the Starwberry Pie I think they will be ready around the same time.
Smell is very strong throughout the tent, can't wait to try these ones.
Thanks for checking out my grow
Getting very close. Used overdrive with my feed this week and will do next week too but decreasing everything else.
Runtz looks very frosty and smells like pear drops to me.
Tangerine Dream smells sweet and hazy. Almost a bubble gum small to her.
Sticky Beast smells like orange fanta to me.
Strawberry Pie smells the same dank sour berry smell as last time! Just not as productive this round.
Thanks for checking out my grow
Start flushing next week.
Will flush for them all for around 10 days, then chop and hang in my tent.
Thanks for checking out my grow
Hope to start some ready for putting outdoors after this run so will keep a diary for those too. Got big plans but lockdown has eaten massively into the sites prep time so need to get a move on!
How did you install those pc fans on a bar like that? I guess the bar is the main part, I've been trying to work out how to do the same.
I like your set up. I run a 20inchx20inch tent.
Thanks
@BermudaCower, Hi bro, they are attached using metal meccano but any small brackets would do the trick. If you look through my diaries you can see their evolution! The main part is a bit of wooden angle. Hope this helps
