Dieselskunk's Bubble Gum Regular Serious Seed Soil Grow Indoors 2021

[dieselskunk]

This is my 2021 indoor grow so far.
Started end of October with Serious seeds Bubble Gum Regular seeds. I sprouted 6 of 6 seeds I started in a paper towel. sprout time was under 48 hours and the sprouting temp was 75*. I then planted them in Coast of Maine Bar Harbor soil. The light is 4" 4 bulb T5 HO light fixture with 2 , 6400K grow bulbs and 2, 3000k bloom bulbs. The grow area is 2' -4' with 3 Gallon pots 6 plants and the temp is 65*. The plants are now on week 7 of veg with 24/7 light. I started feeding Dyna-Gro grow feed at week4 twice per week and then tap water them two other days per week. So far the are growing well with one plant that is half the height of the rest but it is so bushy it's beautiful. I plan to use it as part of my seed breeding stock provided that I get a mix of males and females. One year I had six of six females from regular seeds. I am thinking 4 more weeks of veg and then go to 12/12. The first pic is the short one

Hey @dieselskunk beautiful garden my friend.
Mind if I follow along.

Stay safe
Bill

Thanks
I'm liking what I see so far. I plan to clone a few of the best plants, the short bush plant for sure. I hope bubble Gum clones well. Last time I cloned Amnesia did well but Critical was a no go. I hope to get buds like the one I had from an indoor skunk grow in the picture.

 

[dieselskunk]

Fimming the plants now for better growth and I pruned off some fan leaves to get more light to the lower branches . And now I cut the light to 18 hours. One month more of veg then I'll got 12/12.

 

[Reave]

Looks like a great start!

 

[dieselskunk]

Yea It's going well. I want to save pollen to cross breed with some of the free seeds I have from an order.

 

[dieselskunk]

Now it's 12hours of light. All the plants are the same height with nice dense growth. Taking off lots of fan leaf to get better light on the plants. obviously no bud porn yet but I plan to clone when they show their sex. I will take the boys off to the side. far away from the female's . I plan to take some of the female's and put them under a 250 watt HPS light to compare to the T5 HO light.

 

[dieselskunk]

Well it's just over 2 weeks and the plants are sexed. 3 girls and 2 boys. So now the boys are removed and under a 4' ultraviolet led grow light, yea it's nothing to write home over but it will let them finish so I can collect the pollen. My best female is still short and bushy so she is under the 250 HPS, the other 2 are under the T5 with 2 grow and 2 bloom.

 

[Tokin Roll]

Nice start to you grow journal @dieselskunk

Mind if I tag along?

Stay safe and grow well my friend,
Tok..

 

[dieselskunk]

Well it's week 5 and the plant under the 250 HPS is budding better than the 2 under the T5. I can't claim bud porn yet but it's early yet. I'm waiting on the boys to start dropping pollen, the short bushy male is the breeder to go with the 250 HPS female. No pics on the boys I figure who wants to see them?

 

[dieselskunk]

Buds are filling in. No more fertilizer now after all who wants to smoke nutes! I am feeding molasses however' I have noticed before it makes a good finisher. My male pick for pollination is slow to open but the other male is tall and lanky, I prefer the short bush one. Bud porn is getting better, lots of sugar leaves and the buds are sticky. one pic under the Hps light.

 

[dieselskunk]

Sorry for duplicate shot. Here is the mother plant shot under normal light. T5 vs HPS right now is pretty even as far as buds grow.

Looking good! Would you mind explaining the molasses procedure? I've never used it but I hear that I should be. Thanks!

 

[dieselskunk]

molasses provides instant energy for the plants (that's why is use it during bud cycle) Blackstrap molasses is high in calcium, magnesium, iron, and potassium. Get the unsulfured and it will help feed the microbes in the soil. I use 2 to 3 tbs with a gallon of water. I've never tied it but it can also be an insecticide.

Thanks! I’m on a feed / plain water schedule. Do I mix it in on my plain water schedule?

 

[dieselskunk]

Good time to add it sure.

 

[dieselskunk]

My seed plants are growing well, waiting for the trichomes to turn . I think I'll have seed stock for years to come.

 

[dieselskunk]

Well it's harvest time . got them all down . So sticky I had to clean my trimming scissors allot. picture of a nice bud and one plant drying. I'll total the amount after curing them. Chickens love the left over pot leaves and stalk! just fair because I used the chicken manure in their soil.

Thanks Bill
time to cure it and enjoy it. Seeds for future grows. Now it's critical sour diesel and skunk #1, godberry and runtzosa for an outdoor grow.
