Got the Spider Farmer wicking system set up with a reservoir. Up until now I’ve been using purchased pure water since it came with a better starting pH than my tap. After running the numbers, the cost of hauling jugs didn’t make sense long term. I ended up grabbing an RV water inline filter for the garden hose, which strips out most of the chlorine and other contaminants I was worried about. Goal was mostly a stable water source because the girls are getting thirsty; I still prefer hand-watering to wet and activate the top dress. Access is only from one side of the 5×5, so as they bulk up I’m learning the back two are a chore to reach. The wicking pads help keep things even between rounds, but I’m still going in by hand to finish the job. Did a defoliation pass; airflow and light paths improved, but I may need to push it a bit further because I don’t want a lot of larf. Crazy how much plant material I pulled off but they seem fine. Light feels like the current yield limiter. The SF4000 is solid but a touch undersized for full 5×5 penetration, the lower canopy isn’t getting what I want. I’m eyeing a higher-wattage bar style light for better edge uniformity and deeper PAR at canopy. I’ve been testing edge light saturation with the SpiderF PPFD sensor at canopy height. Center readings are strong but the corners and long edges are clearly lacking. Smaller tent or smaller plants another option maybe. Im at 100% on my light and will be for the rest of the grow just raising it to keep distance. Plants look happy overall. The Durban Cookies is standing out, taller and more vigorous than the 10th Planets especially for being a week younger than the rest. I am guessing it will be harvested first just by stretch speed alone. The 10th Planets R1s all have a pretty even canopy going but showing stretch. Wicking system + hand-water combo is keeping the media right where I want it, and the top dress from last week is kicking in. Reminding everyone this is my first grow. Hoping for a pound dry, but I won’t be greedy. Keeping my expectations realistic! Thanks for following along.

You can find tbe first week of all girls on my profile, second week is missing coz its just boring and now i start week 3 so its day 15 today from placing seeds to germination. Uploaded a video of their habitat, i still wont name each one indifidually coz i still didnt choose winners / keepers. Unfortunatelly i have a bit low RH for this stage of growth but they obviously dont mind, i spray them twice a day, no burns from spraying with lights on, no electroshocks caused by spraying so all good now. I tried it all enough to be able to say i cant be assed anymore :D Since @growdiaries are not keen on resolving a problem with uploading each pic individually on androids, i will keep one diary for all girls, dont even mind not being able to compete in dom. Stay tuned these girls will rock.

11/16 Trimmed all plants. Some more than others. Just experimenting. Two are growing fat buds, two are a little behind and one still hasn't even begun flowering. She just keeps getting bushier and spitting out another set of leaves when I think I see pistils. 11/17 Fed and watered. Changed to 12/12 to see if I can trigger the last lady. Gonna give her a couple days. 11/20 Fed and watered and gave them Cal mag. Late bloomer still isn't flowering.

Since last week, the bush has continued to grow nicely again. A few days ago, I added about 10g of Bio Grow because I noticed slight deficiencies. After mixing this into the soil with Bio Enhancer, it looked healthier again in the following days. Now it has another 1-2 weeks of growth, and then the good plant will start flowering!

Better and bigger everyday! I have finally overcome my problems with nute burn. I create 1 gallon of the solution w/ no dilution, running full strength nutes, and this solution is lasting 1 week+ now. Then daily, fill 1 gallon with purified city water, with 1ml of Heavy 16 Roots for PH balance. Since I topped the 4 bagseed plants multiple times very early in veg growth, they are extremely short and bushy. But the flowering stretch seems to definitely be happening. Plus they have a ton of budsites being created. Still waiting to see what sex the 4 bagseed are. I have multiple close-up pictures of the 4 bagseed photos if anyone can see any signs of the sex? No PM or mites I can observe. Sprayed for them in week 5. Every day I am defoliating the lower branches of the plant as it becomes more obvious what isn't getting light. No smell. Bagseed were started from seed, germinated using paper towel method, and pretty neglected with light up until week 4. Also they spent too long in small containers before being transplanted. Unidentified genetics/sex. Clones were bought anywhere from 9 inches to 13 inches tall. But the clones have just really taken off in their larger pots. The Blackwater plant in the middle is the smallest clone of the three I received, and it was also filled with less dirt than the other 2, which are obviously taller an bushier. Anyone see anything else I should be doing?

12/22/2021 Starting the over night soak in H2O2 water, then onto soil mix to finish germination. Soaking in H2O2 and water, about an ounce h2o2 mixed with .500ml spring water. It aids in breaking down seed shell, and sanitize seeds at the same time. I will sow directly into soil as breeder suggest. 12/25/2021 All I5 seeds sprouted in water little 1-2 mm tap roots, potted into small cups and reppot as necessary, should get 100% germ rate if I don't hurt them tiny tap roots putting them in soil. 12/28/2021 Lemon OG 100% germ rate, Biscotti Skunk 4 of 5, Grape Skunk 4of5,and I will take the blame if others don't take because of miss handling, so very happy with the germination rate I'll give it 100% Thanks @QCS for given me the opportunity to grow your genetics.🙏🏻 Ps. ROJI OGS will go next round I'd like to do them alone I think she will be special. Biscotti Skunk Biscotti Skunk Cannabis Seeds Feminized With a noteworthy lineage, Biscotti Skunk is a mix between the Cookies variant and Kush on one end, acting as the base layer for flavors and effects, while the Skunk addition rounds it off beautifully on the other end, creating Biscotti Skunk a totally unique marijuana strain. This strain works good indoors or outdoors it produces nice big buds. The flowering period for her is 8 to 9 weeks Outdoors this plants will be ready to harvest at the beginning of October, and offer yields of around 700g per plant in ideal conditions. The effects you can expect from Biscotti Skunk strain are relaxation with a good creativity boost, followed by a gradual energizing body feel. A bud with a very complex flavor profile, this indica-leaning hybrid Skunk come from planting 50 Skunk F2 seeds and one of the fenotip came out looking like this. We liked the strain so much that we have finally duplicate the strain. Grape Skunk is one of those tangy, tropical smokes. Her flowers give off the unmistakable scent of tropical citrus, with some accents of grape. THC levels is between 20% and 24%. Grape Skunk is a large producer under optimum conditions. A dense cannabis plant with pink purple colors. Growing Grape Skunk cannabis is easy and great for first time grower. This strain is also great for relieving stress and anxiety, as well as reducing chronic pain, nausea, and insomnia. Lemon Og Kush Cannabis Seeds Feminized This strain joins the OG Kush genetics, with strong Indica and physical effect, cross with a Skunk plant which has a very distinctive and special lemony flavor. The result of this crossing between these two robust genetics a plant with similar structure than the OG, average internodal distance, columnar structure that can branch a little more if the plant has enough space and substrate. Still, it mantains the average height of the OG Kush , producing lots of flowers in relation to its average size. Production can reach 550g/m2 in about 8-9 weeks , which will allow us to harvest our plants before the rainy season arrives, without worrying about molds: it is a mold resistant marijuana strain. Regarding the flavor, it huge amount of resin and terpenes will release a strong fuel and lemon smell, which is noticeable even when we smoke, reaching every corner of our palate. Moreover, its effect is very medicinal , ideal to eliminate nausea and stimulate appetite, deeply relaxing both body and mind.

But feminized information was all they had on website,assuming it's all the same.

The High intensity was to strong (clearly my fault) in the beginning which stunted her overall stretch, she however still delivered super dense, terpene and trichome loaded buds.

Sticking with a Seedsman strain this run as they seem to be the most consistent in my personal experience. Seeds always sprout, have had a 100 percent success rate germinating seeds from Seedsman after popping at least a couple from 4 different strains of theirs. On top of that the quality has been there each harvest so we are giving one of their most popular strains a go and we shall see where it takes us. Although this run I will be trying amended coco coir instead of my usual peat based mediums in an attempt to avoid a pH fallout when the dolomite lime wears out or is used by the plant and allows the peat to become more acidic mid flower. At least this is my theory.. I guess Ill find out. Another thing to note is that for germination I start in a glass of water for 12 hours and then transfer the seeds into the paper towel method by placing them in a damp paper towel until the tap roots are long enough to plant into starting pots.. by far my most successful method personally.

Increíble resultado con esta genética de Anesia Seeds. La combinación del FC6500 de Mars Hydro con los nutrientes XpertNutrients ha dado un resultado impresionante. El aroma es una mezcla dulce y afrutada con notas terrosas, y los cogollos están bien compactos. En cuanto al efecto, es potente y relajante, ideal para las noches

2024/01/20 : as it survived, shiva skunk got a decent pot (1 gallon smartpot 50% canna coco pro / 50% hydroton) and 3 others are going on LST... 3 days growth : afghani #1 - 19.0 cm (+3.0) sensi skunk - 17.5 cm (+4.5) hindu kush - 16.5 cm (+3.0) shiva skunk - 11.5 cm (+2.0) 2024/01/23 : shiva skunk looks bad, with leaves going down and yellowing... it didn't like its transplant. The others are looking OK. I may have seen first pistils... The heights are : afghani #1 - 22.0 cm (+3.0) sensi skunk - 18.5 cm (+1.0) hindu kush - 18.5 cm (+2.0) shiva skunk - 11.0 cm (-0.5) 2024/01/24 : spayed with Foliar Spray from B.A.C. last night, don't know if it was OK for shiva skunk, we'll see. 3 others are preflowering without a doubt now. afghani #1 - 24.0 cm (+2.0) sensi skunk - 20.0 cm (+1.5) hindu kush - 21.0 cm (+2.5) shiva skunk - 11.5 cm (+0.5) 2024/01/25 : shiva skunk is struggling but it's not done yet. And I think stretch began for others.

The 3 THE PURPS plants from BC-BUD-DEPOT grew very nice and healthy. One of the plant turned totally purple in the leaves and in the bud during flowering, she was A BEAUTY! The buds were of average size and are not too dense, but sparkling with trichomes. The FLAVOR is OUTSTANDING...she is DELICIOUS! Her grape- jolly-rancher (=hard-candy) aroma transcends directly into her flavor when smoked. VERY SMOOTH and an ABSOLUTELY DELIGHT on the inhale and the exhale. The 3 plants harvested 156,2 gram dried bud, which is a nice average yield of 52 grams per plant.

Had a few hiccups. Plants ended up developing a nitrogen toxicity from too much worm casting. I simply did a flush on them with water PH’d to 6.3 and allowed the soil to dry out
