So outdoors are always so tricky in Illinois. This plant started in mid April when it was warm, then super cold with snow, followed by moderate weather, to be harvested a touch early due to high humidity, drought鈥攆ollowed by days of lots of rain. She suffered bud rot on a few sites and was harvested immediately after to save the rest of the plant. Super frosty, great terps and she survived it all! Literally! Smells like fruit and dough.

Week 5 My little plant is still developing well and gaining in size. Granted, with limited light comes limited growth but I was expecting that from the get go. I'm happy with the progress and the plant is soon due for its first defoliation.

Not a ton to report as I switch them to flower. The first day they went to the 12/12 light schedule I chopped the shit out of them, taking probably 100 fan leaves from the 4 plants all together. They're just too bushy and I feel like I'm asking for problems letting them grow into each other. Of course when you try to grow four plants in a 2x4 tent, that's an expected problem. They looked blended, bomb-out and depleted when I finished chopping leaves and pulling the main growth tips apart from each other and through the scrog net. I was a little worried that I overdid it, but 12 hours later they had more than bounced back. I'm a little leary of hard defoliation in flower, but pistils have hardly developed and the plants clearly need and respond well to it. I'm sure I'll take about the same amount from them a couple more times. A couple concerns: small amounts of white mold growth on the top of the coco of a couple plants and the sides of a couple bags. Very faint and not growing much. Also no signs of it on leaves or stems of the plants themselves. I've been spraying with a water/hydrogen peroxide mix. Also a few leaves here and there on a few of the plants look chewed up or torn. There are no signs of pests, so I think they're from some minor abuse during training or from the fan blowing. Will definitely be keeping an eye on mold/mildew and pests, especially going into spring locally.

8/12 - Dropped 3 seeds into RO water to germinate 8/13 - Placed seeds into moist paper towel and into plastic bag to germinate on heat mat. 8/15 - All three seeds sprouted. In the morning I prepared three 3-gallon pots with Roots Organics Original Soil and Nature's Living Soil Autoflower mix. I will be doing Super Soil method for this grow. I filled the bottom one third of the pot with regular soil, then added 1 lb of Nature's Living soil and mixed it in. Then filled the rest of the pot with the regular soil. I topped it with Mosquito Bits for added BTI for pest prevention. Finally, I wet the pots down with RO water and Organic Black Strap Molasses. After about 8 hours, I planted the three seeds and placed them in the 4x5 tent with a humidity dome to keep in moisture. 8/16 - Two of the three already have their true leaves. So, I have removed the humidity domes from those two. 8/17 - The last of the GSCs have sprouted her true leaves so I have removed her dome. I sprayed them lightly again today with RO water and molasses.

So.... Cop I started to flush yesterday, she鈥檚 really ready not just a few trichomes Amber, they really are popping everywhere. Everything else other than the PSs is ready too, all nice and milky. The aroma of the tent on the whole is just fantastic. The herb from this grow though isn鈥檛 going to be the most abundant it truly is gonna be a harvest of fire. Pretty much everything in there is caked up with oils bursting from every gland. I鈥檓 still not sure which one is red dragon, maybe Barneys could help馃 I鈥檓 pretty sure now the pictures I鈥檝e landed red dragon are actually Zombie Kush but again I鈥檓 not certain. New rule mames on pots straight away. I鈥檝e just put up some pics of the Gorilla Zkittlez from this week so far, flipping heck she鈥檚 a sticky one. Got a really heavy sweet cookie smell to her, or that鈥檚 what I get, I鈥檓 sure we鈥檙e all percieving aromas and tastes way differently馃槀馃槀 anyway more pictures coming, and end well and truly in sight. Update..... I鈥檝e taken a few test buds from the plants, well all but the PSS. Looking great, all buds nice heavy and firm, the smells coming from them are sweet especially the blue fire and the orange critical, mmmmm can鈥檛 wait till after cure.

The 3 little engines that could! I used the paper towel method on these girls and they wove themselves right in with tap roots that were nearly two inches long. I had to rip open the rapid rooter to get them in and then put them in their rock wool home. Off to the races!

My buddy burned the Mephisto plant by accident with a wrong ratio mix. Other than that my 1st grow is going well, I think. The gorilla glue plants are finally stacking up some rock hard buds. Ive read this plant doesn't have dense bud. I beg to differ. These are friggin hard as golf balls. No week 10 entry. Mephisto plant getting the chop this week. Should get at least a quarter pound or more.
