Dutchman’s 1st Grow Ever: 2018

[Dutchman1990]

Hey @newty i was going over the AN website and found this app. It’s called BudLabs. It’s a free app produced by AN it has a calculator and feeding chart breakdown. You can add in your growing components length of grow and you can take multiple notes on different grows happening at the same time! It also shows all their products, gives you a write up of each one and has information based on their products for growing. It is a pretty neat app I just downloaded it to try out haven’t decided 100% about it yet but figured I would let you know and you said your running AN lineup as well!

It’s update time !!!!!!!

How’s everyone doing! Hope all is well! So we got a quick update today with a bunch of pictures ! So let’s get right in to it !

All the girls got a defoil and minor lollipop! The 3 bigger girls are growing absolutely amazing !! EM2 is catching up quickly. There is some exciting flower action on the white widows !! EM1 is a little behind but has a ton of flower sites !!

All the girls back in their home!

I didn’t want to remove to much from the girls to prevent any possible stress but they are all very healthy so I can’t imagine they would be very effected if at all! My first lollipop attempt so tell me how I did!!


So the White widows are approx. 2ft tall after their stretch has stopped and about 18” wide

The early Miss is a short fat girl standing around 18-20” but a wide 22”!

All the girls have multiple top cola sites forming up some pretty flowers! The smell has started to form in the tent and all of them are getting a good feed tomorrow!

POTS ARE LIGHT! Haha the girls are thirsty so I’m going to feed them their second round of bloom nutes tomorrow and I’ll be adding in BigBud to the feed for the next 2 weeks. I’ll add some more photos tomorrow after feeding and to show my lineup for my upcoming weeks of feed!

Happy growing friends!

Yoo dutch!. you just caught me before i nodded off to sleep lol. Yer they look nice man. Good health all together bud!. Yer id say leave em alone mate. As you say they are in good health. Looks like mosta the stretch is over aswell so they're gonna stop putting out much new growth and start packing on weight. Id just take it easy now. In a few days go in your tent and put your hand under the lowest part of your canopy or over lowest little budsite. If theres no light getting there take it away. Then a few days or more after that take a look from above and see what BIG fans are covering up budsites and take a few of them. Repeat the pattern now n then and you'll get to a point in flower where you think hmmm, i can leave that now and just put it on cruise control. Usually anyway, some strains will continue shooting out leaves until the end of flower. Nos da! (Welsh for good night)

I used to use AN, I use Dyna gro now, just simple. I did use that app though and found it helpful!

 

[Dutchman1990]

Update time!! Wooot

Hey everyone hope all is well and green !

All the big girls seemed to have responded well to the lollipop and defoil yesterday! They were all asking for a feed so, why not! All the big girls got a feed mixture of:

Sensi Bloom A+B 8ml/G (1/2strength)
CalMag 6ml/G (+1ml from week 1 of bloom)
BigBud 4ml/G (first week of BigBud!)
Adding in the BigBud and a bit more CalMag for flowering has increased my PPM to 980. Still light for blooming phase feed. Going to keep under 1000 if possible ! I will be running BigBud for the next 2 weeks then stop and switch over to overdrive for finishing. Flower sites on the Widow 1 and 2 have begun to get bigger and EM1 is showing similar progress. EM2 showed pistils today !!! Woohoo!!!!

Here is a picture of the big girls today during feeding !

All the girls look a little sad because they were very thirsty !! I’ll get some photos up tonight 8hrs after their feeding!!

Happy days my friends happy days !

That is

Hello 420 Friends and what is up!!

Great action and news from the tent these last few days !! I have been keeping up with the LST Bending each day just a light bend to expose the bottoms no tying down or anything. I have topped the EM2 today as well! It was onto its 5th node so I figured it was perfect time. The 3 bigger plants have all been loving the LST and have started their explosive growth. They have entered into week4 and today is day1. I have some absolutely beautiful news! The first of the big plants have shown her true colours! The first pistols on the plant have arrived on WW2!! I’ll be keeping an eye on the other 2 plants who should be right behind her! Since the feeding on Saturday beautiful new growth and huge fan leaves have errupted. Water level is good today possible watering tomorrow...just pHed water with CalMag this time no nutes. Voodoo juice will be used once more on the next feeding before stopping it in the nute mix entirely for the rest of the Grow. Hoping to see some really big growth over the next week as these girl(s) are starting their stretch i think ! Ha

I’ll keep some updated posts of the EM2 after the topping today! It has spread itself bigger since noticing the 3node middle! Here are the freshest pics from the tent ! Any thoughts , comments , questions please shoot me a line!

they are indoors in one of those tents ?

 

[Dutchman1990]

Yes all my girls are in a 4ftx4ftx6.5ft tent !

 

[Hootenanny]

hey @Dutchman1990 looking good. Did the girls perk up after a watering? how many days between watering did they go to get that droopy?

 

[Dutchman1990]

Hey @Hootenanny the girls are doing great and after the watering they started praying to the lights again! The took about an hour to bounce back and perk up... the dry time was 3 days but the pots were basically dried out!

 

[Dutchman1990]

Well Happy Thursday Everyone !! I AM SO EXCITED!! Woohoomy seeds came in and needless to say what a line up we have!!

Next auto tent run we are going FRUITY !!

Not only do we have an amazing sweet auto run coming up I got my hands on some superb ... Gorilla Bomb!! (Gorilla Glue#4xTHC Bomb). Supposedly an insanely high THC strain !! Very excited !

 

[Virgin Ground]

Fun stuff Dutchy! Can't wait for the smoke report on the pink grapefruit.

 

[Dutchman1990]

Me to @Virgin ground
My next auto run is gunna be an exciting run! The girls I have going now are coming along great and I’m just peachy about how they are coming along so far!! I’ll be updating the journal tomorrow evening with some new pictures and some tie-down spreading of Widow 1! Thanks for following along it’s gunna be fun!

 

[Hootenanny]

WOW! I'm soo jealous of all the amazing strains you have coming up!

Makes me angry its soo hard to get seeds where I live... Illegal and police are going out of their way to target mail.

 

[Dutchman1990]

Hey @Hootenanny that’s sucks that your law enforcement is so ruthless! It’s become a lot better here in Ontario over the past year and Oct.17 it’s LEGAL!! But my local hydro shop is absolutely amazing! He orders seeds from everywhere and can get them in about a week!
The Pink Grapefruit and Purple Amnesia are apart of their Boutique Line which has big, high yielding, high thc autoflowers with next generation genetics! They should be a fun grow I just was reading over a journal where a guy got 350+ grams from his Auto Pink Grapefruit !! If I could pull half of that off I would be extremely happy

 

[MrIcculus]

Subbing up a bit late, glad i made it @Dutchman1990 your girls are looking great with the AN line. That broken Early Miss is looking splendid, well done sir.

 

[Dutchman1990]

Thanks @MrIcculus
Glad you could make it into the garden ! This should be a good finish!

 

[MrIcculus]

Thanks for having me.

 

[Dutchman1990]

Howdy everybody !

Things are coming along well in the tent past few days have been steady with consistent growth. I noticed that WW1/WW2 needed to be spread for more light so that was the game plan for today!

Started off by selecting the prime branches with colas teaching the top. Then began to tiedown and spread out lightly the branches to allow light penetration!

White Widow 2 has had some brown spotting on leaves. I’m trying to fix this ASAP as I don’t want it to affect her end yields ! If anyone could assist me that would be great! Her top cola is building nicely and thickening up!

I’m beginning to wonder if my early Miss isn’t actually an autoflower.... she has been beside the widows since the beginning and her flower sites are far behind developing compared to her sisters.. the strange thing is that her details said 7-8 weeks till harvest and the widows are supposed to be 8-9 weeks. Has anybody ever had autos or supposedly autos that actually turn out to be photos?? Thoughts?? Here is a picture of EM1 top cola site.

If more pictures are required please let me know! She has showed her sex but flowers havnt really formed past there !
