I'm posting this first grow even though it's almost done. Possibly Nuken, but not sure. Seeds were gifted.
April 24 - 2 seeds soaked overnight and planted in commercial, sterile seed-starting mix. Placed on heat mat.
April 26 - germinated.
May 1 - 2nd set of leaves emerging. Plant #1 shows odd growth and stunting. Plant #2 is normal.
May 6 - culled #1. #2 transplanted to 4" pot using mixture of 75% coco, 20% organic commercial potting mix, 5% perlite.
May 11 - 3rd set of leaves. Fed with 10-52-10 transplant fertilizer.
May 16 - placed under grow lights (didn't have any before, was growing on window sill) with 18/6. Grow lights are single bulb 6500 LED for veg. Lamp shade from IKEA. Go ahead and giggle. It worked.
May 17 - purchased Green Earth 2-part nutrients. First watering with Week 3 veg mix, 250ml. Need to find pH test kit.
May 24 - WK 3 veg nutrients, 250 ml, pH 6.5.
May 27 - pinched out top.
May 29 - WK 3 veg nutrients, 250ml, pH 6.0.
May 30 - transplant to #1 pot with my custom coco mix, and MYKE. Plant deep into media, almost to first set of leaves. Hairs on stem become roots, like they do on tomatoes.
May 31 - first female stigmas appeared.
June 4 - WK 3 veg nutrients, 500 ml, pH 6.0. All nodes showing female pre-flowers. Last watering by me directly before I leave on trip.
June 11 - WK 3 veg nutrients, 500 ml, pH not adjusted by bone-head taking care of my girl.
June 23 - Back from trip. Plant not watered since June 16th. Soil dry, leaves floppy. Some lower leaves yellow and dried up. NEVER leave your girl with a non-gardener!!!! WK 3 veg nutrients, 500 ml, pH 5.8.
June 25 - WK 3 veg nutrients, 500 ml, pH 5.8. LST and trimmed out a few lower leaves.
June 26 - H2O only 500 ml, pH 5.8.
June 27 - invested in grow tent - Gorilla 2 x 2.5. Same grow light as before with IKEA lamp shade. 179cfm inline fan and carbon filter. Started 12/12.
June 29 - Transplanted to #2 pot using my own custom mix. Root system was well developed but not pot bound. WK 1 flower mix, 500 ml, pH 5.9.
July 5 - WK 2 flower nutrients, pH 6.0. Installed Mars Hydro 300 full spectrum lights at 18" from canopy.
July 7 - Plant is getting thirsty. WK 2 nutrients, 1000 ml, pH 6.0
July 9 - Wk 2 flower nutrients, 500 ml, pH 6.0.
July 12 - WK 3 flower nutrients, 1000 ml, pH 6.0.
July 13 - WK 3 flower nutrients, ProCAL, 1000ml, pH 6.5
July 18 - WK 4 flower nutrients, ProCAL, kelp concentrate, 1000ml, pH 6.0
July 19 - this is where it all goes south. Found spider mites on plant, just a few. Take it outside to hose off and treat. Main trunk splits down middle after getting caught on screen door to deck. F@CK. Gorilla tape trunk back together. On closer inspection I find many male flowers, some in full pollen blow, hiding under small leaves at nodes. Double F@CK!!! Removed all male flowers that I could find. Trimmed off worst infected leaves, hosed off, and sprayed with pyrethrin. Take back to tent. Checking temp and RH from now on. 23C/40% RH. Has few amber stigmas. WK 4 flower nutrients, ProCAL, 1000ml, pH 6.5.
July 22 - WK 4 flower nutrients, ProCAL, 1000ml, pH 6.0. 27C/41%RH. More amber stigmas.
July 23 - WK 4 flower nutrients, ProCAL, 1000ml, pH 6.0. 25.4C/52%RH. More amber stigmas. Took plant back outside, didn't break any more stems, and hosed off entire plant.
July 24 - WK 4 flower nutrients, ProCAL, 2000ml, pH 6.0, 26C/50%RH. Calyxes getting fat. Seeds?????
July 26 - WK 5 flower nutrients, 2000ml, pH 7.0. Run-off pH was in the 5.0 range!!!! Too acidic. 25C/49%RH.
July 27 - WK 5 flower nutrients, 2000ml, pH 6.8. 25C/49%RH. Took plant back outside and hosed off again.
