After germinating the seeds are transplanted into small pots with soil (see tutorial in VIDEO above). The soil is prepared with water mixed with a little bit of BIO NOVA Roots (0,5 ml/l), which aids the development of the seedling. Transplanting is very easy now, because they have grown a STRAIGHT tap-root while hanging during the SERIOUS' WAY of germination. This straight root allows for easy potting of the seeds. Simply make a little hole in the center of the soil with your pinky finger and carefully place the germinated seed with the white root pointing DOWNWARDS into the hole. Best is to lay it onto one side-wall of the hole with the seed shell right at the surface. Then I push the other side inwards and enclose the whole root with soil. At the end only the top of the seed-shell peeks out of the soil. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to plant the seeds NOT TO DEEP into the soil. The seedling only needs extra strength to work itself upwards thru the soil and you run the risk of the soil drying out and the seed dying off. When you PLANT THE SEED VERY SHALLOW into the soil (=with the top of the seed-shell still peeking out) your seedling can grow out right away and you have a small plant already 24 hours after putting the seed into the soil. The small seedling sometimes still has the seed-shell on its 'head', it normally falls off by itself, but sometimes you have to carefully help and take it off with your finger nails. Be careful to NOT clip of the seedling accidentally when you do this! The seed-shall has an inner lining, which feeds the small seedling when it germinates. This inner lining sometimes gets tangled around the stem of the small seedling after the shell has fallen off. This little skin MUST be taken off the stem right away! Once it dries up, it gets hard and can strangulate the seedling around the stem. In order to avoid this, the skin must be taken off as soon as possible! I show it in the pics above and also made a video about taking off the inner lining of the seed.

Week five of my first cannabonsai/mother project. This young lady has been having nothing but tap water for the last few weeks. I am going to start feeding her as soon as she shows the first signs of deficiency. After all the training on day 20, then the root reveal on day 26. I left her five full days to recover before messing any more. Then I took all her fan leaves off and adjusted the LST. I need to train here more over the coming days. Day 31 - Photographed and took a video. P.S. Follow me on X! @unorthadoxdude

Shes getting there . If I keep feeding her and shes a hungry beast I’ll tell ya that . The top dress amendments did NOTHING for her . Each few days shes asking for water and if I don’t add food into each water she starts to fade . Shes receiving currently 80ml of organic compost tea concentrate in 2 gals of water and devouring it . The signs of stress or issues I’ve noticed on occur on the areas that get constant light the areas around the edges are pristinely green and lush looking . I figure if I put her on ANY schedule less than 24 she would stop showing signs of deficiency. I was being safe and feeding her every other watering and giving her only 40ml of food in 2 gals but like I said I recently gave her back to back feedings and upped the food and she stood tall praying to the lights . I can admit she hasn’t looked as healthy as she did when she was planted fresh in the mixed soil . I think it’s because I let the soil dry out so much in between watering a letting the plant tell me when it needs water avoiding root rot that I’ve killed thr microbiology of the soil that would break down the too dress feeding for her . In the future I need to be more mindful of the base “soil” mixture I use and it’s moisture holding capability and moderate mu watering to keep a moist burn or soaked soil if I plan to continue in soil . I figure another 3 weeks of feeding on the heavier side and she’ll be ready for FLIP TO FLOWER !! I’m scared of burning her this close to the flip but as hungry as she’s showing me she is I also really wanna see her potential . I could save a lot of this guess work if I purchased and learned to use a TDS meter and note the pms shes getting and the affects of her growth but for now I’ll continue to few my way along unless someone and a TDS meter for dummies approach that can simplify the calibration and method use of the meter

The autos are flowering and just loving the sun. They are drinking daily. What a difference the sun makes. The others are moving soon. Gorilla is ready. Slurricane is ready to be cloned. So I must find time to set up the cloner. Maybe I'll go old school with it. Once I top her she will start branching. This is what we need more clones. I've been having trouble with seeds, got some more coming. I just dont have the time or energy to take care of them. That is obviously the problem here. The fluctuating humidity from 10% to 99% doesn't help.

Wasn’t planning on updating this diary until after the cure, but why not. She was harvested on August 10, and placed into an empty grow tent at 60F & 55% RH. By August 17, the outer buds were dry enough, so I had used a wood moisture meter to measure the moisture content of the inner buds and they were ready to jar. I didn’t measure wet weight as I hung the entire plant whole and didn’t want to account for the weight of stems & fan leaves on the plant, but dry weight was 90.45 grams For my first grow, I don’t know if I did everything right… I will know by the end of cure, but so far I am more than content with the way she turned out. I have another Bourbon Berry Twenty20 outdoor grow I might post on here soon which is currently curing, & Chocolate Haze by RQS which is in week 2 of flower.

Gelato x GMO is taking off in the 15 gallon pot, showing rapid growth every day. The Blue MOBs seem to have stopped growing vertically in the 5 gallon buckets and are now filling out existing branches while they all reach for the sun. The 15 gallon Blue MOB seems to still be growing in height as well as filling out existing branches. Heavy rain has been persistent with few days of direct sunlight yet plants are still growing. Massachusetts ended up receiving the tail end of a big storm so I have not had to water them the entire week, the soil has stayed damp and kept the plants hydrated

Hello Growmies, Our week 13 marks the harvest of the Watermelon Candy strain, a reflective moment that encapsulates our journey. With a wet harvest tallying at 419 grams from three plants, it's evident that the repotting process played a pivotal role in our yield outcome. Despite this, the harvest, although modest, is a testament to our plant's resilience. Throughout this grow, our meticulous environment control, courtesy of the Mars Hydro setup and TrolMaster's precision, ensured our plants thrived in stability. This experience has highlighted the delicate balance of growth, particularly how repotting can significantly impact our plants' performance, with only one plant weathering the change successfully. This cycle's standout plant serves as a beacon for what could be achieved. It exemplifies the sheer potential of a well-timed and well-executed grow strategy, paving the way for future harvests that align with our high standards. A heartfelt shoutout to Patricia from the Zamnesia Family is in order. Her consistent support has been instrumental throughout our growing endeavors, enabling us to share our story with a wider community. Let’s also appreciate the stellar TrolMaster team—Sascha, Ying, and Caren—for their expertise and guidance, which has been integral in refining our grow environment. As we bid farewell to this cycle, we carry with us the valuable lessons learned and an eagerness to apply them moving forward. We embrace the quality of our Watermelon Candy harvest as a clear indicator of our dedication. Looking ahead, we anticipate future grows with optimism, ready to optimize and advance our methods for even greater success. Stay lifted, stay curious, Salokin P.S. Reflecting on this harvest's scale, we're inspired to strive for excellence, fueled by the guidance and support of remarkable individuals like Patricia and the TrolMaster team. Here's to the promising yields ahead that they'll help foster.
