Light 600 watt Meizhi
2 small fans.

1X seed I found in my last grow,Blueberry auto that never auto`d.Might go with 5 or 6g pot.

1X Mother Of Berries fem,90% indica 10% sativa.1X 3g cloth pot.Breeder Mendocino farms.

Moved under 600w veg light.Easier set up than 65k bulbs.

#pic 2 ,Seed I found in my last grow really taking off.12 days from breaking soil.
Next 3 plants are 7 days from breaking soil.

#3 Aurora 2 leaves did not poke out of soil but rather 3 leaves,followed by a second set of 3 leaves.Nodes are really tight.
#4 Mixed Berry,Geminated in paper towels.When I went to put the tap into soil the shell I used tweezers.The seed seperated from the root.Put it in the soil.Now there is two sprouts from the the one seed,twins?
#5 Aurora.

NOV 29th.
Elected to try Quadlining Blueberry Auto.See Quadsquad link.Picture was taken right after I took top off,so the plant might need a few days.,Picture 3 is what came off 24 hours before taken the top at 4th node.
In pot a little over 1g.,moving to 6g in a week or two.

Dec 5th/2019
My plan to try different soil came after I already started the sprouts in 0.5-0.7-0.1 seedling soil.I up potted maybe a little early to get the into the FFO -25% - Perlite.Using my tap water Ph`d 6-7 range .I did add some of my own fertilizer at about 20% of what I used in my last grow at this stage of the grow.

The Blueberry went into a 6g,the other 3 into 1g`s.Will be using Pot Elevators this time around,4 bucks each from Grow Shop.
Humidity has been 32-40 range.

Started Lst on one of the Plants rather than top this one.Gently massaged it down.Nodes are pretty tight,just stuck one rubber wire at the base stem.Played around with it more than I should have,heard roots ripping.

Dec 12 Still under veg mode light at 18.5-5.5.
Quad Auto Blueberry and Mixed Berry.The Mixed berry started with a 3 pointed leaf at node one.

 

[JC Grow]

Dec 13
Two Aurora`s.Lst plant showed no growth in 4 days from the side so I topped it.Other plant started with a crinkley 1st node on one side and a big 2 pointed leaf at second node,just those first two nodes off.Looked nothing at all like her sister.Candidate for Quading.

 

[JC Grow]

Plant from the seed I found growing much faster than other three.I have not watered any of the four in 8 days.Tried taken 4 clones from the Blueberry today,under dome.,Humidity in the 30-40 range now that it has gotten colder outside.Probably top the first 2 in picture at four spots as quadline not expanding that good.

 

[JC Grow]

Ordered a second light.Not sure if the Blueberry is an auto or not.Have not watered the Blueberry in 10 days ,will water today.Fliiping to 12-12 when second light comes.Moved the Aurora(3rd picture) to 5g. cloth pot.

 

[JC Grow]

Ordered light but sent it back as the fan was a bit loud.I sleep in the same room as the closet is in.Ordered another Meizhi.Should be here Thursday.

Up potted the Mixed berry into 7 g.Cut the 3 g cloth pot 4 places root ball held together pretty well.The Aurora also is in 7g ,posted 5g by mistake.Both plants seem to spurted up 2-3 inches in last 5 days.

Feeding for the Mixed Berry.
Total water 1 gallon.,85%c tap aged.15% fish tank water added last.
3 ml home made cal mag.
10 drops 0-10-10 Alaska Morbloom.
3 ml trace.
3 ml banana juice.

 

[JC Grow]

Blueberry been in veg for 50 days.Start showing pistils over 2 weeks ago,I don`t think it`s an auto..From the seed I found in my first grow.If you don`t count the couple times watered with 20 ml as a seedling the plant has only been watered 4x.

 

[JC Grow]

Flipped 4 days ago.Made mistake ,had lights on only 9 hours fixed to 12-12 yesterday.Full closet now 30X55 inches,the one plant taking up half the space.Looking good.

 

[JC Grow]

For the second time I cut 4 small branches from underneath the 4 corners of the Blueberry..Also took a couple small branches from the center.My 1st grow had branches which produced only 1-2 grams .Put 4 in pots of FFO in the 12-12 closet.My other attempts at cloning in the dome failed except I have one which spourted 1/4 inch roots put that one in a pot.

Going away for 4 days so watered.The Blueberry 90% dry the other two 70-80% dry but leaves looking a bit droopy.

All 4 get 1 gallon.Blueberry with added 20% tank water the other two get 100% tap.

5ml homemade Cal Mag(1/2 next feed.)
2 ml trace.(1/2 next feed)
20 drops 0-10-10 Alaska Morbloom.
1 ml phosphate(synthetic salt?)
3 ml Homemade Banana tea.

Ph close to 6.2

The Mixed and Aurora I did nothing except took off the 1st and 2nd node early then removed a couple large fans underneath the other day.Doing their own thing.

Flowers appeared on Blueberry today.

Will post pictures when plants wake up.

7 days from flip

 

[JC Grow]

Went away for 3 days and came back to find my big Blueberry totally Hermied.Hopefully my two others did not get pollinated.First flower on those 2 appeared within last 2-3 days.Sacs appeared quickly within 3-4 days.Will destroy plant.

Reasons?
Seed only seed I found in my first grow.
light too close.
Is an heating duct in the closet,temps can get up 29 degrees.
Pre-flowered 2-3 weeks.Waiting for second light.
Fertilized similar to my first grow,but much weaker doses.

14 days after flip.Plants are twice the size of my first grow at this stage.Better root development..One MOB not Mixed Berry and one Aurora.Pulling some leaves on the inside blocking bud sites.

 

[JC Grow]

21 days after flip,plants look sassy.Changed up my doses yesterday??just tap plus 10 drops 0-10-10 and 2 ml banana juice.Today notice some light browning on the larger fans which was not there yesterday,checked leaves I plucked off.Added liter with 2 ml cal mag.
Did some bending down of taller branches.Starting to show some frost.

 

[JC Grow]
