Welcome to my 🍋 🌳 diary. This is for the tiny/rare pot seedsman contest. I have a .75ml cannacure bottle. Have a drainage hole at the end. And have it filled with light mix. Also, as I know its gonna be hard for the plant roots to breath I added my air pump I use for both my DWC buckets. I just made a hole and pushed the tube through a tight hole I made. So, o2/co2 will go straight into this mini little rare pot. Seed has been planted into the sub. I added a bit of dry soil in on top of the wet bioenhanced soil in the spray bottle. The root will then grow into the conditioned soil, I used bioenhancer from Green House feeding and I'll be using their mineral line as I said. I poured about 75-100ml of a 1g/1L of tap water. Didn't check ph as I know its 9.3. Maybe because it's light mix soil I should have PH'ed it. But it'll be fine. It'll take a few days before the root grows into it. And by that stage there'll be no shock to the young plant as it'll be somewhat stable. 3-5 days in. I'll start on a 2-300ppm feed including tap (that's 110ppm) so specs of grow powder will be used at the start to bring my ppm water up a little and as its light mix. She'll be begging for food come day 5, so if she goes off with a bang then I'll apply nutrients 3 days after she's up. Sadly she'll up going under a p1000 at full strength. But I'll have it in the corner and it'll be 100+cm away and I checked the lux and it's in the mid 10k-15k range so that's fine for a seedling. The temperature is perfect at 24/25c and with lights off 21.5-22.5. RH won't be up beyond 55 with lights on and 65 with lights off. As this is been added to 15 other grows. As None are in small pots. And I think this is somewhat rare. It has an injection of o2/co2 into a tight container on the lowest and middle level. Its pushed into the middle. (I made sure to make the push in with a stick 1st so the tube didn't block with soil) and when its turned on and you block the hole it expands. So airflow through the soil is very gentle but it flows great. I'm looking forward to this 1. OCT/11TH Seedling Days 0-2. Took a little bit of an unwanted stretch. As its 100cm away from the light. It should of been closer. But, its doing well. There's no mutations or burnt looking tips so, only up from here. Seedling Days 3-4 Good growth this week. Idk if its cause the way the roots are growing and don't have much to expand. And she's stretching a little. I decided to jump the gun a little earlier than I planned. So, I gave a very very light grow feed 250ppm (that's including 110ppm tap)Id like her to me at least 1/3 smaller (stem wise). I checked the lux and even though its nearly 100cm away. There should still be enough light so she should be trying to reach for it. Idk. I just can't move her closer as the light is doing 8 autos 4 every 24hrs and she also gets a 4hr rest by taking her out and into dark space. As I keep my 70cm2 tent running 24/7 as I wap out autos in it. So they get a 36-12 (24hrs under p1000) then when I turn on my FC 3000 they get put into it for 12 hrs, and I take the other autos coming off the 12hr rest the 100cm2 has. (Confusing I know) only way I can juggle so many plants that are different (autos&fems) and try make it work. And it is. I'll update this week as soon as she's up out the ground. Seedling Days 5-7 Plant is on course. But, I have a bad feeling. As my poxy AC intake failed to kick in when Temp went up to 30c and ran for that for 12hrs without venting. And I had the Air pumps turned on. So, she was getting 28-30c air blown into little bottle. So, sadly. I had to flush her with A h202 mix. GRRRRR. I know it was too long of high temp been pumped into it. That's gonna f..k it. Fingers, toes and nose hairs crossed I'm wrong. But I know this lady does not like hot conditions in small spaces. Let's see. Maybe it could be the injection of the air pump maybe it's too early. I had to turn it off today anyways. Room temp was coming into 23c by so had to go off. But, hey if this is a by product of quick growth. Then I'll all for it. Let's roll onwards. Seedling Day 5. Had to put a bit of tube in so I could tie the stem. Is it me or has she got even taller. I personally think..she's growing much faster than a normal fem. But it's early days and won't know true results till I reach day(s) 14-21. Then I'll get the measure of her. Air pump has been turned back on. As room temp is back down to 21c. So, its safe to be used. Shout out to my sponsor from barneysfarm who hooked me up with great beans. Much appreciated.

This week you could see the bud sites starting to really show :) Did some heavy defoliation but again you can't tell by the pictures Pheno #1 and #2 were growing so tall and were stretching every day it was hard to get the lights any higher. Soon they won't be able to go any higher. Feeding schedule stayed constant for most of the grow. See previous weeks

At 84 days from seed, 29 days into bloom, she is drinking about a liter (1/4 gal) per day. The stretch has stopped. I continue to defoliate lightly so light and wind can get to the bud sites. Her harvest window will start in another 30 days so there is not much to do but wait. Highest temps in the tent this week were 79F, lowest were 73F. I read somewhere that purplish tones are more likely to show themselves if you have cool nights. Unfortunately, as I'm growing during the summer without AC, I don't think I'll be able to create cool enough nights to see purple leaves. She smells great though and is putting on weight well. I am excited to watch her develop. I am also trying out Terpinator for the first time. I am using it at much lower dosages than recommended. I plan to increase the amount I put in when I get comfortable that it won't burn my lady.

Saturday 18th day 18 of 12/12 The jacks toe jam was looking a little hungry so, i gave it a pint of Bac PK booster and bloom stimulator. For the rest I will use biotabs pk compost tea and molasses, when the time is right. More tying down for the rest and some defoliation. I also added some nematodes on the 12th as I have a couple of little gnats buzzing about. Apart from that, I have just been carrying out daily checks for any buglife and any signs of male parts.

12.5 - F60 - another couple dark cycles and she'll get the big dark and chop. Really excited, such a loverly plant and the way the calyx started stacking up in the past couple weeks has been neat. I frequently see people harvest very round buds off this plant, so I'm curious to see how she looks all trimmed up.

This journal is now current as of 7/1, and this entry is for last week (June 23-29). Growth is continuing to be explosive on the Blue Dream--she is now 37 inches. This last week, however, received 3 days of rain and very heavy winds that I thought would kill the plant. The video shows just how bad the wind became. She shows signs of overwatering (spotting on fan leaves, though new growth looks fine) which is to be expected given that she received 3 days of rain and had no chance to dry out. Nevertheless, she persisted. 😊 I added the first netting to try out a scrog method. It's definitely not going to be perfect, and I'm definitely an amateur experimenting with method. Will attempt to develop an even canopy. GSC and Green Cush continue to grow reliably.

Week 4 in the books. Pink as she could be.

Hi all, sorry for the delay, all continues to go very well, she is handling the nutrients very well wit only a very little tip burn. I increased the light a little bit, as I felt that some of the main colas on the side didn't get enough light. Next week I will probably be able to show the little veg-box I built, since the cuttings are slowly outgrowing their current home.

been a little slack on the old diaries but I’m here with the update some big improvements this week bud sites appearing, she’s stretched impressively to all in all I’m with the way my girls our growing 😁 happy growing guys 👊

Update 20 Jan 2021 - Well starting the cure a bit earlier than I’d like cause I’m having issues getting the humidity up so she dried up quick. Working on rehydrating her a bit and have her in mason jars now. Ended of with 88 grams of rock solid buds. Still want it to rehydrate and cure a bit before trying her out. What can I say, a very simple and easy grow. Had absolutely no issues during the grow and ended up with 380 grams of SOLID wet bud. Even some of the lower buds that didn’t get much light are pretty rock solid. Going by the smell and solidness of the buds, I got a feeling this is gonna be a too 2 strain, if not number 1. Looking forward to growing this one again and as soon as I harvest another plant, I’ll probably start another one of these.

Day 7 - all plants need tidying up. SO1 has the strongest colour & overall development so far... Frosty buds SO2 is suffering from heat issues. But has the nice smell

Day 51, 31st of October 2020: Hiya!... Time goes fast basically I went on holiday only for 6 days so my friend looked after them.... and miracle happens .... Ladies and Gentlemens ... They impressively grew 20 cm.... look at them explosion ... I had to do LST and gave them darkness one day and switch the lamp to 12/12 from today.... They want to flower .... The smell is getting stronger as well I bought extraction fan system with filter which is already in arrived today but not in use yet..... Everything seems to be good and everything will continue the same way well from next week pump a lot of nutrition they will need it ;) Cheers!

Harvest

Critical is definetly a sativa strain, as she just wants to grow straight up. I wanted to take pictures before i defoliated but, i forgot. Sorry guys but next week i will definetly post before trimming. No smell yet, but she is comming along nicely. Was thinking of trying the Supercropping method with this strain let me know what yall think, as critical does respond very well to any training. Feel free to post some opinions.I would Love the feedback, AS ALWAYS........ HAPPY GROWING😉!!

Switched the plants to flower this week and have noticed tons of growth since. Both plants have turned out to be female and are both producing pistils. Have run into a potential problem while defoliating I noticed a couple leaves on one stem that look like they were burnt almost. They weren’t bad but I haven’t noticed it anywhere else. I looked over a lot of the leaves with a healers loupe under 60x magnification and didn’t notice and insects, the leaves were also growing into the side of the tent so that might be what cause it but not too sure.

The final week for the cough. She has had an easy week and will spend her last 7 days on just water and some humic acid/growzyme. I'll go to just water for her last feed which I expect to be on Friday. Her run off is still a 1.4 s she has food in her substrate. Not much more to say. She's fat with probably the most dense top I've grown to date. It's like there are at least 3 layers of flower growth over the buds with a fourth layer coming in, in the form of some foxtails. Can't really explain it but trust me it's dense.. super sweet smell also and very sticky to the touch. She has chewed through most of her fan leaves and I will remove any old ones through the week to aid with the trim/harvest Thanks for passing through. Grow well 👍🏼💚🌿🇬🇧.

First week of flowering. The plant will stretch, so i adjusted the LED dimmer to 100%. Did a good defoliation too. Doing good, very healthy. Smell very good.

This plant has CRAZY stacking on it. It hasn't grown up as much as it has branched out. This is a strain I'm growing to treat symptoms of MS, so with the stacking it may turn into a mom plant for cloning, but we'll see. It's received some feedings of liquid seaweed, black strap molasses, and URB in R/O water.
