Well here we go into Week Two of Veg! ππWith two weeks of initial growth behind her now, the Seedsman Strawberry Cheesecake Auto is doing fantastic and sprouting her 4th and 5th sets of leaves which is such a beautiful sight to see! Thank you for following along this journey with me! Growing this beautiful cultivar is always better with someone to share the experience with....come along and enjoy! ππ
~Grown 100% organic in a 10g fabric pot with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 2-8-4 and 1tbs/g Dr. Earth Bat Guano.
~24hr light cycle during germination / 19/5 light cycle for Veg & Flower
~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed, top dressed every 3-4 weeks and weekly Compost Tea's.
3/23- Oh boy...Week 3 of veg and my girl is way ahead of her game! This Strawberry Cheesecake is as big at 3 weeks as most 4-5 week old's I've cultivated... UFB!
Daily watering's continue now with straight de-chlorinated water to which I'm now just adding Botanicare CalMag+ @ 5ml/g twice a week which is ph'd to 6.4-6.6 @ 72deg. with a 0.4 EC 250-300ppm.
Straight water now is all that's needed as I top dressed her which should keep her happy for the next 2-3 weeks.
I do plan on supplementing with Compost Tea's and I'll occasionally top dress with a 1 cup scoop of Wiggle Worm castings which is LOADED with ALL kinds of goodies for my girl and the best part is that they're all able to be taken in by the plant immediately unlike the slow release organic dry amendments. This is why worm castings are my 'go to' for any issues the plant exhibits and believe me the plants LOVE them!
Her nightly foliar feedings with Fox Farms Flower Kiss mixed @ 5ml/g continue and are applied just before the 5 hour dark period.
3/25- Daily watering continues with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC given to her in the morning. Foliar feeding before lights out continues every other night with Fox Farms Flower Kiss @ 3ml/g.
She has phenomenal color and her growth rate is off the hook...This pheno has all the makings of a centerfold! We'll have to wait and see if she continues to amaze!
She is absolutely gorgeous looking with her developing flowers and I anxiously await to see her development over the next few weeks!
3/27- Daily watering continues with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC given to each in the morning. Foliar feeding before lights out continues every other night.
3/29- So long Week 4! OMG...This girl's an absolutely phenomenal specimen with gorgeous color, structure and growth rate...I'm telling ya this strain is hard to beat!
Daily watering continues with 0.75g straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5 @ 72 degrees 200ppm 0.4 EC given to her in the morning. Foliar feeding before lights out continues every other night.
Her water intake has increased slightly and I've been dividing her watering to twice daily to keep up with her needs.
I spend the majority of my time 'tucking & plucking' her leaves and making sure her environment stays as close to on point as possible.
Thank you so much for following along so far! I hope you'll continue to follow my journey as things will be getting more exciting as the next weeks approach with her starting pre-flower... Grow Strong! ππ
