Grow went pretty well. 100% of the seeds I germinated (two) popped and grew - no issues there. (Thus far, I have a 100% success rate with ILGM seeds - thank you Robert Bergman!) Both plant grew to maturity and didn't have any issues with disease or pests. ILGM advertises a THC of "up to 21%"; I came in with a respectable 16.6% (according to my tCheck).

Nutrients
I like the Fox Farm products as they are easy to use and locally available (which means I can sow back into my local economy). Nothing extra special about them, but then again I just use the basics. I might consider some of their specialty additives for future grows. The soils are nice and simple. I started out with the Happy Frog and added Ocean Forest later at a 4:1 mix.
Lights
I like my TSL 2000. It's been simple to install, simple to operate, and problem free.
Tents
Absolutely no issues with this tent. Any issues I've had with this tent can be traced to my own stupidity! lol😂

So to be clear and provide full disclosure: this was only my second grow and my first experience with autoflowers. I started these girls early for our normal growing season because I wanted to get two grows in of this strain: one (mostly) indoor, one outdoor. I learned quite a bot along the way: I was doing the typical 18/6 light cycle, later learned that a lot of people recommend 20/4 instead. I germinated in peat pellets, then went to 1-gal fabric pots... then to 5-gals fabric pots. (Next grow will grow straight from peat pellets to 5-gal fabric pots. I think I may have added some stress by transplanting twice.) I didn't realize how fast autos go from germination through veg, to flowering. I did very little LST and absolutely no topping/fimming. Next grow I'll try to FIM them at least once. I got these girls outside as much as possible. While my TSL 2000 is a great light, I still prefer the natural light from that great big ball of fire in the sky. "The big yellow one is the sun!" (For those of you who will pick up on that reference.) I'm a bit disappointed in my yield. ILGM indicates 4-6 oz per m2; I got far less... but my grow conditions aren't perfect. I don't have a humidifier in my tent and I have an oversized exhaust fan - and it's all set up in a detached garage, which makes controlling temperature and humidity problematic. (I'll take any advice there!) But over all, it was a good grow and a great learning experience for me. BTW - I'm not much of a smoker, so the taste and effects come from ILGM. I started growing to make tinctures and edibles to help me, my family, and friends get some better sleep. I want to wrap this up by saying how much I appreciate the support from the GrowDiaries community. From answering questions to providing encouragement and advice, you all are the best!

Grow Questions

SurlyMahnstarted grow question 3 years ago
This is my first time growing autoflowers. While both seeds popped, one opened up “normal” the other has remained partially closed. I am starting to see hints if green. Is this normal? Do I just need to remain patient? It’s been less than a week since they popped

yes, this is normal and patients is key. What happened was the one wasn't planted deep enough so didn't get to shed its shell. Normally after a week, the seedling will shed it by itself, but if it doesn't you'll have to gently remove it so it doesn't hurt or kill the seedling.

I have a question about the FoxFarm Soil Feeding Schedule. I have the three-part system: Big Bloom, Grow Big, & Tiger Bloom. But the feeding schedule lists a bunch of othe products as well are those supposed to be used in conjunction with the basic system or separately?

You can use them but they are not necessary, your plant will be fine with the base nutrients.

@deFharo, I chose this strain specifically for mixing with maple syrup for maple gummies & maple sugar candies. Figured the flavors would go well.

I'll have to check out the greenhouse! Starting out was rough for me... definitely need to dial that in!! The idea of the manure pot was good (and offered to me for free) but... it threw off my original plan and it took me 2 weeks to get on track... Oh well, live and learn!

@Green_Mountains, that is basically my plan for when my seedlings are ready to pot. I plan to put them in 5-gal pots... mostly Ocean Forest (2/3?) and the remaining 1/3 Happy Frog.

@SurlyMahn, This is the conundrum I am in. For my next grow, I'm watching your peat pellet idea. I'm currently thinking of starting with a peat pellet and then in the first week dropping them into a 5-gal pot that is filled mainly with Ocean Forest and having a 1/2 to 1 gal pocket of Happy Frog around the pellet... I'd water it in larger circles as it grew and the roots reached the "hotter" soil... and then start feeding when needed... My "shot in the dark"....

@Green_Mountains, This is my first time using peat pellets so I’m on a learning curve as well. They seem simple enough, but I’m just not sure about whether I should transfer to an intermediate pot (maybe 1-gal) or should I go direct to a 5-gal pot before putting them into the tent.
