Introduction - Week 20 Summary -
Ensign's log, stardate 17572.0,
Ca-Caw!! Another great grow week in the garden!
Slightly increased the PPFD and evened out the canopy with a bit of super-cropping.
In the veg garden, mainly been tending to the clones and watering as needed. Topped both Heady OG clones along with both mother plants (Heady OG and TKO).
Been a pretty easy week in the garden and the both gardens are thriving with growth! Let’s go my ladies!
Onwards to next week!

--------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet]
- [19:48]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent.
--- Wow growth is healthy and green.
--- Both Heady OG and TKO mothers are looking beautiful
--- The spare Heady OG clones need watering! Let’s go!
- [19:52]: Here are the starting initial watering ranges:
------ Heady OG BX1 #1A » 237.7g → 300.3g
------ Heady OG BX1 #1B » 244.4g → 305.6g
--------- General Solo Range: [Dry] «| [Initial Cup Weight] + ~55-100g |» [Wet]
--- Both cups were last watered 2 days ago.
--- Took the starting weight of both clones before watering,
------ Heady OG BX1 #1A » 225.5g
------ Heady OG BX1 #1B » 238.4g
--- While on a scale,
--- Gently misted the straw mulch of both cups with RO water.
--- Focused on the straw and sprayed as evenly as possible.
--- Misted 10-20 sprays. Waited a moment, then misted again.
--- Made sure to reference the watering weights.
--- Repeated this process until both cups weighted at least 300g.
--- There was no runoff.

------ Heady OG BX1 #1B » 340.2g
--- Marked the final wet weight on the back of each cup. Also marked the watering date on the front.
- [20:18]: Decided to also top both clones.
--- Using a pair of trimmers, cut the main stalk down to the bottom 2-3 nodes.
--- Mulched the trimmings.
--- Placed both phenos back into the tent and onto the veg pots.
--- Great! Since these clones will be vegging in solo cups for a while, trimming the top growth should reduce root bound stress.
--- Okay! The clones in the propagation tray look thirsty as well!

------ Gorilla Goat #1 » 256.1g → 300.4g

-----------------------------------
- [09:34]: Decided to increase the PPFD a bit.
--- Within the AC Infinity App,
--- For the Main Tent [4x4] controller,
--- Adjusted the 'Flower [12/12]' Schedule for the grow light.
------ Increased the MAX intensity from 4 to 5
--- Plan to take PPFD readings later and will adjust the levels back if growth gets worse.
- [20:58]: Night check on the 4x4 tent.
--- Ca-Caw!! Looking beautiful my ganja queens!

--- Time to take the new PPFD readings and height checks!
--- Let’s go!
- [21:18]: Took the weekly general PPFD readings.
------ All phenos were around 864 μmol/m²/s which gives a DLI of 37.32 mol/m²/d under a 12/12 light cycle (at ~390.1W).
--- Also starting to notice that the LEDs are not at the same intensity. Several sections of the grow light (Mars Hydro FC-6500) are dimmer and have a few broken ones. Most likely this is due to general wear and tear. Overall the light is still fine and don’t really plan to upgrade anytime soon.
--- Anyways!
- [21:23]: Took the weekly height and light distance measurements.
------ All phenos were about 47" tall.
------ Both Heady OG (BX1 #1) and TKO were about 7" away from the grow light.

- [19:28]: Topped and removed a good 5-6 inches of top growth.
--- Mulched the trimmings.
--- Only cut the main stalk and now the canopy is looking a lot better!
--- All clones are looking perky and green!
--- No need to water. Great!
- [19:39]: Checked the humidifiers.
--- Tanks are still full and no leaks found.
--- Another grow week done!
--- Need to still decide which clones to transplant.
--- Currently between the 4 phenos, plan to transplant Gorilla Goat #1 and the original Garlic Budder #2, but this may change.
--- The Gorilla Goat #1 (currently at ~5 month cure) is by far the loudest pheno of the lot and has a lemon chem gas profile when has made her a keeper!
--- The one I’m still deciding on are the Garlic Budder phenos (also at ~5 month cure). Both are unique in their own dank way. The #1 pheno has a smooth sweet ‘purple’ terpene profile with a hint of fuel while the #2 is more earthy and gassy.
--- Anyways!
--- Onwards to next week Ensign!
