I received my Mars Hydro lights and they helped a lot. 2 TS-1000's. I supper cropped some of the 12/12 from seed and it looks like something trampled through the garden. Lol. The rest are really stretching now. I hope I the larger ones don't get rootbound. 🤞😁😁😁

Thank you. Growing cannabis is an art that seems to evolve as you learn it. While it may only take a little knowledge to get started, It seems that this may take a life-time to perfect (doubt I'll ever make that category, but I will certainly try). So thank-you to the community that Shares, Comments, Follows, and Likes. Your efforts in any of these actions make these journals a worth-while and perfect way for us all to learn and track our efforts. I personally appreciate it. Also a huge Thanks has to go out to Grow Diaries for making this community even possible. Your efforts to supply the data storage alone is more than enough, but you the fact that you dont stop there and constantly try to improve the experience even more makes this my favorite community to to share on. And then lastly, but certainly not least, a heartfelt Thank-you to Royal Queen Seeds for your branding/research while making these seeds available to people like me. It gives me confidence in knowing that I am working with great genetics before I even start my grow. ---------------------------- Germination Start and incubation period 3/12/24 to 3/26/24 Transfer Day to Veg Day 6 3/27 to 4/2 Germination: First note was about the appearance of the seeds. They were smaller than I am used to seeing, but no damage or deformities and look to be in good shape. Germination took 14 days from dropping in water to transplanting into 1 gallon pots. 23hours in a glass of 6.3ph room temp RO water. 2 cracked open a little and I placed them both in paper towels wet with the glass water and pasted to the sides of the glass for 2 days then checked, no progress. So I freshened the water then waited another 2 days and checked, little to no progress. Then checked again 1 day later and finally was able to move them. One looked fully ready and the other seemed less ready. I placed in rapid rooter pods and closed with toothpick tips. 1 popped out of the pods in 1 day but the other did not. So I gave it 1 more day and started my spare seed. After 4 days of water and towels I replaced the dead pod with a growing sprout. Transplant occurred on 3/27 Veg Day 0 to 6 1gal hard tall pots. Transplant went well. The sprouts are smaller than I would like and seem to be stubborn in growth to start but hoping htat changes with soil. One pod was overgrown in the pods and Im hoping it doesn't reflect in the overall plant production. Video: Transplant ease. Transplant to 1 gal pots: I am using a 50/50, 50%perlite/50%soil with a .5lb of dolomite lime and a .5ml of flora micro added to .5 gallon of RO water (Im mixing 2 gallons of soil total so the water to soil ratio is 1/4 of the total medium volume) to achieve a soil tested ph of 6.4. I am using a 50/50 soil/perlite mix because I plan to use these in auto pots. I also used about 1 cup of the same soil mix water to pour around the plant after transplant; you can see how the perlite rises to the top where I did this. I sprayed two domes and covered - I plan to leave covered for the first week. Feed: I kept them under the domes and sprayed every day that I didnt feed them, to keep humidity up while I let them find water in the soil. By the end of the week I took the domes off and took pictures. Feed this week was another 1 cup of 6.3ph water 5 days after transplant. Feed plan next week will increase the amount to 2 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I want to see the water run through so if I need to use more than 2 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefully spreading the roots out while doing it. Veg Plan: I plan on 8 colas for each plant. So that will be 3 topping days and a total of 7 cuts. I will want to cut the first time on day 21 if I have 5+ nodes. I will transfer to 5 gallon auto pots with-in 1 week of the first topping. Once I have 3 nodes of new growth past the first topping, I will top those two branches to the first node again. (that's 3 cuts total by this point) Then, after 3 new nodes of growth after that, I will do a last topping on the 4 branches. (4 new cuts added to make a total of 7 cuts and 8 colas) I will train the branches using LST/HST with tie downs as soon as I can after the first topping day to help maintain the branches growing where I want them to. I will also introduce an adjustable tomato ring after they have settled into the 5 gallon forever pots to provide support and mobility Hopefully all goes well, and I will have 1 to 2 weeks of growth before flip after week 8. I think it sounds more ambitious than it really is, but if you follow this journal, we will see together.

This weeks nutrients were identical to last minus the CalMag. The smaller of the two plants continued to stretch until the end of week three of flower. The larger plant already started to bulk. Trichome development is ramping up.

It’s frosty time these bruccies are putting out trichomes like nobodies business!! This update is coming in at around halfway through week 9 as I’ve been very busy recently and haven’t been able to give the girls quite as much attention but boy oh boy are they doing well. Stopped pruning and trimming of any sort, just letting them run their course now. Switched big bud for overdrive, I read online that overdrive is more beneficial for calyx production so hoping they continue to bulk up a bit before I harvest. Was under the impression that autos would be finished by week 11, leaving for a trip around that time so I will be forced to harvest the girls then, regardless of how mature they are. Ideally they would go for another 4 weeks but it is what it is, my first grow and it’s been an enormous learning experience. Just bought some 3 bears OG from the Mephisto restock, super hyped on these. Also hoping to grab a few of their new illuminautos as well when they drop tomorrow. Gotta set my alarm for that!! Really hyped on this upcoming run, learned so much from these bruccies that I’m ready to put into the Mephistos.

Getting quite cold on a night as well but they are still coming on strong. Had a day where it rained for like 18 hours straight 😂 not good. Flowers are looking good though and are starting to kick out more THC. Can see my topped one having some really decent sized colas by the end. Keeping the nutes as they are now. Smell delicious 😄

Consider 14 weeks the flowering process itself at when i report i cut it also forced me to do the taste to something too fresh - ? So Consider this a final thoughts post as i wanted to show i slashed them,all at once as i was noticed that were on their limits on time range for a balace between not over ripe the g13 and not let mature enough santa bilbo chamos , it can be very easy to reveal what where each one as they were fuck very stable between them, that uniformity com from very stable bank indeed so fuck i eager to report & fly on some old school shit itself , and shit, this is fuck a sativa and indica differences so clear and by their own simple yet remarcable smell punch from dope lemon demon & sweet og hash ou that are refining from what stated last week & outperforming my own personal previous growof them personal SUCESS & SOPA DE MACACO & BIG GAS LEAKS N BIG DICK ENERGY 👌 . STILL A LOT TO IMPROVE HOMIES & I WILL DERIVE TO OTHER GROW TRY / FAIL / REPEAT & REPORT AF AS I CAN BE FOND OF THIS TIPE OF JOURNAL as on my time, were useful when searching from some previous insight on some grow experiment , or smoke reference as well, every shit can help even and sweet bless of autotranslate as well !

Week 5 into flower. When sampling the smell of the fresh bud it has a strong scent of citrus and pine. Under natural lighting the plant is a nice dark green with white sugar hairs looking frosty

Update Day 22 flowering: A good week of bud building this week for the Fft Girls. FFT#8 Is still in here but not a lot tonsay about her really sadly I didn't get to try this one out properly but will try again sometime. FFT#9 Has been a dream to work with and build so far . Her progression this week on her flower building has been perfection. Her ruderalis traits had her stretch about finished at day 12 and she had begun to flower properly. I did a defoliate at day 19 instead of day 21 due to their faster genetics. They looked stripped below decks but by day 21 they refilled a few back out and now look leafed up again. lol She has a little tackiness tot her stems now and is picking up a nice piney smell. She has some great looking mains now and should be a good yielder. FFT#10 Another winner in my book. This lady wanted to grow her own way initially but has now accepted her fate and behaves as i wanted niw. lol. Her budstacks are a little wider apart due to her indica/sativa ratios being more indica I feel . Her dark green colour is so stark in contrast to the other strains too. Her stacks look more leafy orientated than the other strains too. i defoliated her too but she responded quickly with sugar leaf growth. Her bud sizes are looking promising to say she has 4-5 weeks to go so fingers crossed for baseball bat colas. She has been easy to grow with no issues at any point so far. prior to the defol , I had purposely dried them out to get a cycle going better of wet /dry. She showed her disapproval first with major leaf drooping across her whole frame. She is a thirsty girl too. I am happy with all of these testers and impressed at their rapid development too. I do think the new sp3000 has plated a part in this development too as the extra reds and stuff added are more for the flowering cycle than previous sp series ones. the Sp250 is giving me a great addition to the outside edge of the girls so should keep them all in max lumens until the harvest. Be safe and well folks. Thanks for stopping by.

Day 58 : She started to fatten her buds. Also she has a small nitrogen deficiency. I think she will be ok. Nutrients added to water, CO2 stopped for all ladies. Edit (Day 62) : I watered again with nutrients, so to be ok with nitrogen. It seems that she faced the lack. I believe she will be that chop chop.

Растения просто гиганты, я уже 2 раза очень хорошо обрывал лишние листья и нижние ветки, но они продолжают разрывать мою комнату. Жду когда начнут набирать массу. Сегодня как следует опрыскал растения Делта 9. Вообщем все выглядит очень сильно, еще бы хотелось увидеть тяжелые, плотные и крупные бутоны. Монстры нереальные, ждем активного цветения

Good bud and visible trichome development.😍 Stretch seems to be slowing down by the end of this week. Another round of MegaWorm and Guano powder spread on the soil this week. Temperatures and and watering needs are increasing as the light is set to 100% this week. 160W of LED on about a third of a square meter should push these plants to some nice yields.🙌

In the home stright now, a few milky trichomes on each plant, just ph’d water for the next 1-2 weeks. The smell from these two is phenomenal, its actually making it through my carbon filter.

All in all it was a great grow, alot of challenges alot the way but Im glad i stuck it out because It was 100% worth it in the long run. Buds are a very dark purple, full of trichomes, really special to look at with your own eyes, unfortunately my phone camera doesnt quite catch the beauty. Straight from drying and the buds taste amazing with their own unique taste and smell. I cant wait to see what its like after a 2 week cure! I reccomend growing this strain.

Sour Hound is stretching for the moon. She's the tallest plant I've ever grown so far!! Just starting the flowering stage now. I can't wait to see how she yields. I backed down a little on the Recharge this week, but still giving twice the suggested amount. Also still giving her Mammoth P. Will start with MegaCrop (Greenleaf) nutrients later this week. 👍
