Temps at 78-84 f, humidity inside dome around 68-76 depending on temps. Direct planting into coco jiffy plugs, charged with a light seaweed extract. Took 2 days exactly for seed to pop out of plugs. Another day to remove its shell, will start counting as day 1 from here on out. This journal will only follow gelat.og, check out my other journals for the other strains. Green crack auto (seedsman) and 2 extreme impact autos (heavyweight seeds)
Transplanted into the hempy bucket on day 5, roots were bursting out the coco pellet. Growth will be slightly slow until they hit the reservoir. The hempy bucket holds 600-700ml at max capacity. My last grow in a smaller setting than this with just basic Phillips led bulbs yielded around 60 grams and I used about 10gs easy before I even got to the end. And I even harvested 10 days earlier than I wanted to. Let's see what happens with this one, with a couple more inches of space. 1.7 x 1.7 x 2.5 feet is what im working with now. Stay tuned. ppfd- 200 umol duration 24 hrs. DLI - 18 temps: 78-86 F humidity: 55-85%. Started 200ppm on day 5. I think they need a night cycle, I feel they'd rather hit the same DLI in 18 hours and rest for a bit. Making the change today.
Chugging along. Upped nutes to 300 on day 8 and then gave them a 380 ppm feed on day 13. Mid strength Foliar spray with seaweed on day 8. She's growing fast. Upped DLI from about 18 to around 22-24. Ppfd varied from 250-400 over the day. Getting their feet wet with intense light. Side branching signs appeared on day 12. Temps were 84-90 f sometimes and humidity from 60-80% were recorded. Nights have been warm and stable 78f
Hit between 26-35 DLI this week. I wasn't here on day 17 and 18 so no pics. Ppm went to 380 on day 15 and then went to 450 on day 19 as we went up in DLI. Foliar spray with tricantanol and seaweed on day 20. Side branching is developing very well. I can see roots to the sides of the pot, they are drinking now. The cotyledons started discoloring on day 17 as I wasn't there to change the reservoir for 2 days there was a slight stall (very very slight). This particular pheno has massive looking leaves, very very squat in structure and its side branches take very well. Temps have been between 84-88 f with many swings in humidity this week, from 55-80%. She seems to be on the edge of light stress. So keeping the DLI to around 30 for another week and then preflower we'll hit the upper ends of 36-40 DLI. They are booming tho. Hempys for the win. Compared to the other pheno in my box, this is very squat with larger leaves and a smaller demand for nutrients. Started LST on day 20. Will keep readjusting for every node to get as many tops as possible. Growth is vigorous, another week or two should fill out the canopy, at which point, training will stop and they can grow straight up.
Not sure if I have light stress, nute issues? growth rates are defined explosive, leaves large and green. I hit 36 DLI one day in the most recent week and I felt like they weren't ready. Temps 84f humidity 72%. Ppm 400-450 ish. DLI 30 usually.
hi there you have root issues actually, that's because the humidity was trapped in the medium so some mold developped, you need a stricter wet dry cycle for this plant, sometimes it recovers by itself but sometimes you also need to add enzymes, humic acid or beneficial bacteria to fix it. Hope this helps ! 🚀
Trying to fix deficiencies this week. Mag then cal then phosphorus its been crazy. Dli reduced to 32 this week I think the blue in this light is asking for more magnesium and then causing problems with antagonistic elements to lock out subsequently. Ppms were up to 1090 by day 35. They really are hungry. Learned a lot this week. Tried to stay in VPD ranges as usual but I'm sure this is not true "vpd" either. Anyways she's starting to flower now, her tops are starting to bud.
All going good, she didn't stretch too much so she was lifted on day 42 to compensate. DLI was 32-34 for this one. Temps into the 90s and humidities into the 75-80%. Development is going very well. Night temps are 82f ish with about 60-65% humidity. She's on track, honestly even tho she didn't stretch so much I still think she'll do well. Check out the other strains in my "box" 1.7 x 1.7 x 2.5 feet yikes miCroooo yessur lets goooo
Environments same as last week, 84f and 60% humidity. They smell like coffee and weed if that makes sense. Day 49 about another 3-4 weeks to go still. She's developing quite well and bulking should start this coming week. DLI is around 39 at the highest tops. Ppms are 1000.
Conditions same as last week, she will finish first it looks like. 56 days old today about another 14-21 to go. Swelling is in full effect and smells are really starting to come through. Oh and it smells so dank this particular strain from seedsman is definitely frosty and looks like it will be very dense and stanky
Gonna let her really finish out and develop. Another 2 weeks to go. She is smelling so strong and she is covered in snow. Her bracts are swelling up nicely!
She was chopped on day 68. Smells so strong. Very potent bud and it was really dense as well. I'll upload bud pics soon. They've been curing for 2 weeks now. Beautiful bag appeal but I think I made some mistakes this grow and things will be different next time. The other phenotype was quite weird in terms of growth and bud structure so much so that they look like completely different plants.
Easy going, potent strain from seedsman. Does not like to see leaf temperature above 86f, will change bud structure to airy if temps get too high. On the other hand, if temps are kept in control she's a rock, dense, hard nugs with a dessert flavor. Heavy yeilder. Pungent aromas. Was the dankest of the bunch.
@theplantdaddy, depends if you want biological or not, but if you're in perlite which is sterile then h2O2 will work just fine (and probably better) , just dilute it correctly otherwise it's game over.
@theplantdaddy, no no, just plain water, you can add Rhizotonic or something like kelp extract -based but that's not every time you spray, think every 7 to 10 days.
This week had a lot of difficulties, I changed a lot of variables too quickly and basically my environment was all over the place. Humidity was low, light levels did not get increased. I was mostly trying to figure out my ppms and what looked like a deficiency to me due to lockout. They were foliar sprayed with magnesium sulfate once on day 27 at 100 ppm and 28 at 180 ppm. I'm not 100% sure if it solved the problem. I do see improvement but let's see if they hiccup too long. Hope not. Temps were 78-90 humidity mad swings from 50-81, obviously not all the time but it was a very inconsistent environment, out of vpd. On day 29 I made a fresh batch of nutes and made sure to dissolve it completely and let it sit for a couple mins and mixed them vigorously. I don't know for sure but they look a whole lot better. I took out the deficient leaves cause they were messing with my ability to tell whether or not the problem is progressing. Ppm at the end of the week 750. I noticed runoff was consistently 300 ppm lower than input which is interesting. Maybe they were just hungry and my feed contains a lot of N so it was starting to burn the tips so I backed off. Maybe I was just underfeeding? It was probably everything.
