CD’s First Grow

[Canadadoes]

Just entered week 2 of flower,
Hoping stretch will slow down now, after adjustments the canopy is at 24”, light is 18” above the canopy. Here is a shot of some of the buds starting to form.

I should also add that these plants have developed some pollen sacs. I’ve been plucking and slightly spraying. I don’t think it’s from stress. I think I may have had a true Herm. Calyx pushing out pistils and nanners, and pollen sacs pushing out pistils.It’s been strange. Just trying to contain.

My wife picked up a 1/2oz of homegrown “Green Crack” as I looked at the bud I started noticing things. SEEDS I found 28 seeds In the 14g,

and here are the Pineapple Express bag seeds

Now these plants were grown in backyards next to each other,

Females aren’t promised, your gunna have to be okay with planting lots, and killing lots!
that’s a good score on gc seeds!

So since this is mid week 2 of flower, I’ve added some AN BigBud at 1ml per Litre I will run that with the GH trio+CaliMagic until 3 weeks before harvest. Around week 6 or so is the intended “stop time” for the big bud nute but will assess as needed.
Stretch is still going strong, I’ve been adjusting daily they were over 30” I’ve got them back down to 26”. Hoping that will subside soon and concentrate more on the bud development.

LST, 2.5 weeks into flower. Started feeding with Big Bud start of week 2.

Trying to keep the canopy relatively even, it’s been challenging to say the least.
big feeding with the addition of BigBud for 1 week now, they’re now starting week 3 of flower.

Have you been super cropping any of the branches? It’s all pretty even, I’d say you did a pretty good job!

Have you been super cropping any of the branches?

I haven’t been super cropping, I’ve just been tightening up on some of the pipe cleaners attached to the 5 gallons and loosening off on others. I’m thinking stretch should be pretty well done now. Not getting close to the same amount of height I was getting daily. As of now the canopy sits at 34” from soil.

Quadline update,
Slight yellowing of lower leafs. I think I have it under control. Been in 12/12 for 4 weeks and flowering for 3 weeks tomorrow.

Quadline update, it’s now half way through week 5 of flower. 6 weeks from flip. This plant is showing a lot of the sativa phenome. I’m guessing it still has atleast another 6 weeks left of flowering. Not much trichomes yet unfortunately. Buds are filling out nicely though. Hopefully it’s not a dud.
What do you guys think?

Seems to be right on track. Flowering nicely!!

Thanks for the feedback. I have introduced blackstrap molasses, in hopes that the extra carbohydrates will promote resin production.
I ordered a new light from budget LED.
500w Series 3 RSpec in 3500k.
Im planning on doing a DIY build but wanted to support the sponsors here aswell for all they do for us.

 

[Backlipslide]

you’ll like the @Budget LED light!! Great product, with great customer service!!

 

[Canadadoes]

I think so too. Once this round gets harvested Im thinking I’ll build a second room and build a DIY light. Veg room (8x8) and flower room (8x8). Maybe even try my hand at making seeds.

 

[Canadadoes]

A long way to go yet, New light should be here should be here tomorrow as per the tracking.

Just started week 6 of flower.

 

[Canadadoes]

New light is in place,
Someone tried to intercept, and have the package delivered to another province. Luckily I keep an eye on the shipments I receive. Spent sometime on the phone with UPS explaining that I didn’t change the shipping address and to send to the original shipping address. Was a little damage to the light, just cosmetic. Again UPS not budgets fault.
Thanks again @Budget LED

Glad you got your light man! She looks great!!

I just got my new light today as well, my plant is almost finished so I’m going to hold off and give the next run the new light. Enjoy your light man!!

Thanks man, I was just talking to my wife and she gave me the ok to start building another room. So I think I know what my weekend will entail.

Well, lumber is purchased and loaded up. Going to be a busy weekend. I was originally just going to build another 8x8, now I’m leaning towards 2 8x8’s and a 4x8 for seedlings.

You saw my grow box I built eh? It’s only 32” wide, 2’ deep, and 18” tall inside to inside. You don’t need anything big for your seedlings!! You have no idea how turned on I am right now! I love me a clean stack of wood lumber!
