After germinating the seeds are transplanted into small pots with soil (see tutorial in VIDEO above). The soil is prepared with water mixed with a little bit of BIO NOVA Roots (0,5 ml/l), which aids the development of the seedling. Transplanting is very easy now, because they have grown a STRAIGHT tap-root while hanging during the SERIOUS' WAY of germination. This straight root allows for easy potting of the seeds. Simply make a little hole in the center of the soil with your pinky finger and carefully place the germinated seed with the white root pointing DOWNWARDS into the hole. Best is to lay it onto one side-wall of the hole with the seed shell right at the surface. Then I push the other side inwards and enclose the whole root with soil. At the end only the top of the seed-shell peeks out of the soil. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to plant the seeds NOT TO DEEP into the soil. The seedling only needs extra strength to work itself upwards thru the soil and you run the risk of the soil drying out and the seed dying off. When you PLANT THE SEED VERY SHALLOW into the soil (=with the top of the seed-shell still peeking out) your seedling can grow out right away and you have a small plant already 24 hours after putting the seed into the soil. The small seedling sometimes still has the seed-shell on its 'head', it normally falls off by itself, but sometimes you have to carefully help and take it off with your finger nails. Be careful to NOT clip of the seedling accidentally when you do this! The seed-shall has an inner lining, which feeds the small seedling when it germinates. This inner lining sometimes gets tangled around the stem of the small seedling after the shell has fallen off. This little skin MUST be taken off the stem right away! Once it dries up, it gets hard and can strangulate the seedling around the stem. In order to avoid this, the skin must be taken off as soon as possible! I show it in the pics above and also made a video about taking off the inner lining of the seed.

The last week went great. This time I didn’t mess anything up, haha. #1 is already pretty ripe... I’ll probably wait until the weekend, maybe a few extra days. #2 is also ripening nicely, no complaints there. Sour Stompers are really great strains, just super fun to grow. The tent smells super sour right now, haha PH5.8 | EC1.4 | DLI55 | VPD1.2-1.5

I've seen a visible decrease in live spider mites. Spraying Captain Jack's Deadbug every 3rd day. 2 treatments so far. I took a sample bud from the very center of the plant to examine with my loupe (still need to order a microscope). From what I can tell, most of the trichomes are cloudy. Drying the sample in a brown paper bag. I still don't know if my leaves are turning yellow due to light stress, nutrient deficiency, or because the plant is close to being finished. I've clipped a bunch of leaves off both from yellowing and because there were a bunch of visible spider mite eggs underneath. There's been a definite decrease in spider mites after 3 treatments, but they're not totally eliminated yet.

Another good week

She grew great. A few problems but all on my end. Everythig was great responded to topping well. Alot of puple leaves and orange hairs. the buds look lovely and smell like mashed blueberries. not incredibly strong but i imagine that will change after a bit of cure. Super happy with the way she turned out. Dry weight coming soon. will definitely be growing this one again soon.

Day 73 ~ Plant 1 is looking great and hopefully will be ready to harvest by the end of the week. Been checking the trichomes and while most are getting milky white, there are still a couple sites on the plant where I find clear trichomes. Plant 2 seems to be about a week or two behind the first plant...I will give plant 2 their final Nutes tmrw and then begin to flush. From reading about this strain it seems like it should take around 90 days from seed to harvest. So I would think plant 1 is running a little ahead of schedule and plant 2 is right on time. Day 75 ~ Both plants looking and smelling amazing! I was hoping to be harvesting the first plant by this weekend, but she is still growing and her trichomes are still not all milky and I haven't yet to find an amber one. So it might be another week or so before I can start drying her out.

Dry 57 g one plant

This might be one of my most favorite strains. Heavy yeilder of 185 grams of flower and 30 grams of shake. Thank you for checking out this grow.

9/11/24 jour 42 Ça commence à bien grandir je pourrais passer en Flo semaine prochaine Belle croissance de la Beldia qui a activé sa Flo , pleins de branches secondaires apparaissent C’est cool de les laisser pousser et voir chacun des développement structurel de chaque plant Les limon Blanco ressemblent à un sapin, les secondaires du bas sont les plus grands et diminue petit à petit , avec une grosse symétrie , belle croissance et bien touffue, elle s’étire pas beaucoup Les Beldia , une s’est mis à pousser asymétriquement avec une branche par colas Trait commun, les colas sont serrés pour former une batte avec une ou deux branches qui part vadrouiller dans la tente Sensible au nutriments mais continue à bien pousser, elle s’étire beaucoup vers la lumière La Persian Prince a aussi les colas serré mais tous de la même taille , belle étirement et croissance, j’ai beaucoup d’attente sur ce pheno Les polars gelato on les colas du bas qui sont grand et espacer et ceux du haut petit et serré, première fois que je vois de type de formation ils ont pas tous la même croissance ,ce sont les Dalton Les Aladdin Skunk ont du mal à reprendre Lemon pie à bien germé et à l’air de se plaire , elle aura droit à une semaine de croissance en plus La grand daddy purple pousse relativement bien

Plants are happy and coming up really nice. They were defoliated and given a good dose of S.W.A. Organic Compost Tea. See you soon for another update. 😁

Bam We are almost done, she's getting a little foggy now. Wierd how the crop went 1 corner tall the opposite corner short & flush is treating plants the same. Wish i started the flush 1 week earlier. Next Set will have Humidifier, Dehumidifier, AC, Heater, Scales, Soil Moisture Meters, & 2 more 6" circulation fans. I want to get some underlighting going to but dont know the best way to set that up like yet, or the right lights. This set has been fantastic. Bud on Bud on Bud. i will definetly remove more smaller branches next crop as i do have allot of non producers in the buch, just cramping the crop up a bit. Vey excited for next set. This herb is not too stinky and more lemon then gas. Super smooth and will gain allot of flavour on cure. Pretty uplifting buzz not a couch crawler. Next post will be Harvest!!!

Week 6 and these girls got a scrog net added. As the plants are getting extremely heavy. Started to unfold an open up eagle spread style. So had to lend a helping hand. They got a scrog net added an the untrained plant got tied up from tents upper support bars an lower branches got some support also from the net. So far everything is going smoothly. The e680s light is putting in that work work

9 and half foot tall lil yellow low part look like red ants might be eating the bark was 4 or 5 there at the hole on the steam of the plant

Plant is growing good. Still really pretty to me. Hoping to flip around day 60

Every plant in garden day 56 Noticed yellowing mid week 7 don’t think it fade having some ph issues my run off is 7.2 after flush then watered again still up at 7 so hopefully going to water at like 6 6.1 from now till it goes down growth continues tho some buds getting big ☺️

WEEK 5 (DAY29-35) I have already topped the plants for the second time. I plan to repeat this process once or twice more in the coming weeks. Overall, they are looking good. They have always taken a bit longer to recover from the shock of topping, but I like their general growth pattern.
