SCG Indoor Tent Grow 5/14/21

[Gypsy58]

Here we go with the second grow. May 12th I dropped two seeds of Strawberry Cough into water. May 13th pull the seeds from the water and put them between a dam paper towel put them in the oven (dark, warm place). Check the seeds today and they've already popped roots. We'll leave it in there for another day and then put them in the soil. Not using any soil that you buy in the store, this is Virgin soil from a farm. Nice and black. I got some cow manure from last year, not composted, just dry poop.

So far this is the only information that I have on these girls.
Strain is strawberry cough
Flavors are berry/tart
Genetics are strawberry fields x old school haze x erdbeer varietals
Flowering time is 9 wks for indoor grow
Landrace is 75% sativa/25% indica

This time I am here the start and can do these the right way

Day 3: pulled them out of the paper towel and put them into my soil. Watered the soil with water so to make sure the babies had something to drink. let it sit for a bit then used my index finger to dig a hole about half the depth of my fingernail. then lightly covered them up and gave them more water to the outside edges of my pots.

Day 5:

In the first photo, the top seed looks like that today so I put her in some miracle grow just until I transplant her, the she will go into the soil/dirt I have. The bottom see is about where she should be and has dropped her shell so left her where she is. Neither of them popped out. So I was going to gently pull them out of the soil/dirt and put them both in miracle grow but as you can see as soon as I pulled away a small clump of dirt, she made her first appearance. Gonna ride it out and see what happens.

Day 6: She is doing pretty good. Should be breaking out those first leaves here in the next couple days.

This is what she looked like when I put her in miracle grow. Thinking I willput her back in a damp paper towel for a couple more days.

Day 7
Her first day out in the tent and she is doing good.

Day 10 and she is growing as expected. Gave her a good soaking and now to see how long it takes her to dry herself out.

 

[Gypsy58]

Day 14: I wanted to try a grow in good black dirt and fertilizer along with just water and no nutes. Yet. One of the seeds didn't take so I started a new one and put that one in miracle grow. So lets see where this one goes.

And here is the new seed in miracle grow

Day 13 of veg 18/6 and seems to be doing good. Mixed up 10 gal of nutes for my big girl. Poured a pint of nutes and diluted it by 50% and fed them both. This one is in farm soil.

Day 15 they are both doing great. The bigger of the two is a week older.

 

[Gypsy58]

Day 16 and my older plant is growing like really good. The younger not as good as the other. Fed them both with 50/50 nutes sprayed them both with foliar.

Noticed today that the older is up to three sets of branches. Should be topping soon.

 

[Gypsy58]

Day 18
Checked on them today and they are both doing good. Fed them with the 50% nutes.

Day 7

 

[Gypsy58]

Day 21
No water for her today, soil is still wet. Is already up to three nodes. Two more and she can be topped.

Day 10
Coming a little slow but she is coming along. Gave her some water today. Next feeding will be diluted nutes.

 

[Gypsy58]

Day 23
Gave her a drink of water today. Her last two feedings were nutes so this is her flush. She will be here for another two weeks before she transplanted into her final home. When I get her moved to her final home, I will at that time top her.

Day 25
She is growing pretty good.

Ok so they are basically low maintenance. I am going to try and top her at 30 days. Fim?

You know topping is taking out the growing tip - fim is 'F**k, I Missed' whereby you take out the two tiny side shoots at the top too - it creates four new top shoots instead of two
Top or fim is usually done art the 2nd or 3rd node

Thank you, I was beginning to think it was never going to happen. I really appreciate you spending as much time as you have helping me get her here.

Day 26
I really don't understand what you're saying about 4 shoots instead of 2. When I topped my first one I only got 2 main branches. The only stems I have coming off the main are the red stems. Nothing permanent yet.

 

[Skunksta]

The two new ones , when ready you top again to get 4 and so on. Hope that helps.
