Día 49

- June 19th - 10 days after planting the seedling - the plant is developing very well - the first shoot is emerging - Day 13 - today the lady was watered with 0.8 ml of BioBizz Bio-Grow mixed in a total of 400 ml of water

I think I'm off to a good start. This is the roughest part of a grow for me so far. One thing that I learned from my past killings was to not get obsessive and that's the approach. I've got a way better understanding of feeding now. I was confused about feeding charts, thinking that it was mix and feed. Even though I checked the PH and PPM (incorrectly a few times) I'd consistently fry my plants to near death, bring them back with plain, proper ph'd water and then re-fry the next feeding. It hadn't dawned on me that the nutrient mix while being in the optimal PH range, mixed in right order and correct measurements, my PPM/EC was way too high for the stage of the plant. Yikes, I was feeding a toddler 3 double Whoppers with extra everything. And XL fries. You burn and learn I guess. The little girl was starting to look hungry so I took a shot and fed light nutrients with some hydrogen peroxide (will update the chart soon getting sleepy). I also punched a lot more holes in the bottom of the solo cup. Few hours later her leaves perked up like she was giving me a high five. Leaves are looking good too with a PPM of about 211. It's going to be a warmer weekend so I figure I'll crack another seed and put my 5 gallon pot to use. Possibly a photoperiod?

420 Fastbuds FBT2301 Week 7 What up Grow Fam. Week 7 update for these two amazing looking plants. Both are growing great with no big signs of issues. Color on them is a beautiful green with a sweet smell starting to poke through. The taller of the two seem to have gone a different route being tall with some gaps between nodes as the smaller one has stacked nice a tight. All in all Happy Growing

29/10 - Paper towel method, all seeds germinated 30/10 - Planted into their first pots 01/11 - Sprouted 03/11 - Watered with PH 6.2 water 06/11 - Watered with PH 6.2 water and 10ml of Seasol

09/17: Started flowering already! I am confused By this as i have never had an auto start flowing so soon. Admittedly i have only grown like 3 other autos. But they were well into week 4 before i started showing signs of flower. I think these are going to be tiny little plants.

Well CDG#4 had gotten so bushy it was messing up the netting and it was getting very hard to tuck due to all the growth. So I had planned on doing the 1st major defoliation a week after I flip but decided to do it early or risk something happening to my girl. So I did it Thursday night after Thanksgiving dinner. Damn did she protest the next few days. It's Sunday night and she has bounced back 200%. Just like they like to do. So flipping her to flower tonight. Nov 27th. Just replaced her water with the flower nutes. Also go my new cogs and parts in so I finished the light upgrade. It's pvc & alum. Angle so it's super ghetto. But it works and works awesome. 376 watts on high. Measured at the outlet. 8 citizen1048 cogs 3500 full spectrum. These have huge as heat fins. And at $18 each fin it's by far the most expensive part of the build. I've got 8 of them.

A little late to this party. Day 49 the flowers entered stretching which I then switched over from fert-I-lome 5-1-1 to Neptune Rose and Flower.

Still continuing to defoliate.

May 8th, the trellis is getting filled out but the biggest plant is still looking bare and small

Seeds are buds are coming along nicely. Not sure if I mentioned but the cross is (Purple Punch x Purple #1) aka Purple Saitama

Esta semana se aprecia claramente el crecimiento de los cogollos sobre todo en el tronco central. Todos aparentan ser un fenotipo diferente. En concreto 1 de ellas parece que no a generado bastante producción.

Stopped the nutrients at week 11

these 2 girls have been a wonder an a half to grow. !! #2 is finishing alot faster than #1 but its about half way through flower and #2 has just taken off from the beginning rich thick colas with dense stinky purple nugs. #1 is a real tall with a few thick long colas really showing off her legs this one.🤙😁

Lowered the lights a good 8-10inches just because i realized i could get them closer without burning! Going for around 6-7 inches above canopy getting the temp in the high 70s low 80s om top canopy. All pheno are getting very unique and super resinous! I have a slight lnat problem going to spray this week when i get paid

Update: I made a Flowering feed guide for myself so I figured I would share it. I'm going to do a small flush on them soon to remove nutrient buildup. I'm sure it will help finished quality. The first girl has been stretching all week. I have had to LST branches to keep her short. I hope she is done stretching but if not I will just keep tying branches down. She did make it too close to a light and it burned one of her buds. It did not cause any issues tho. On the second girl I was tying down the main stem and damn near snapped it off. I freaked out and cried IRL. 😭 I braced the top broken half and taped it up then I gave her a large dose of Silica and Recharge to help her recover. Only the broken top of the main stem went a droopy for 4 days and she almost stopped growing. She developed some rust spots on some of her fan leafs. I gave her Cal-Mag the second I saw the spots developing but they developed regardless. My guess is that she used energy in her fan leafs to help her recover. The good news is she looks fully recovered. 👊 I can feel a knot where the break is, very fast recovery for such a bad break. For sure this was my worst LTS accident to date. I will get a pictures of the break when I feel comfortable removing the tape. I upgraded there lights with 2x 100w 3000k flood lights with the lens plate removed. I have had really good results with these lights in previous grows and they are thin so they fit perfectly. I now have: 2x Castnoo 300s (really 100w) 1 Grow Star 150 UFO(really 70w) 2x Viugreum 100w 3000k thin flood lights (really 60w) 2x MAIICY 45w (really 30w) That's a total of 450 true watts. 225w for each of these girls. Very bright inside. Maybe over kill?
