2024 ONE GALLON CHALLENGE DISCUSSION TOPIC

[RootFarmer]

My plants like to roll to a light beat

My plants prefer light bubblegum pop like this little ditty by Everything Is Energy.

The video is the first ever psychedelic video produced in 1942 IIRC.

Don’t feel bad I had one soldier go down before the battle began as well!

Hell these are full on tester seeds as well made them myself 2-3 runs ago this is tha first test of them

Never really gave a rundown on my seed, the pollen recipient was a Gary Payton x Okie from @Trustfall the 2012 cement shoes was from an ex member

The GP cross was a awesome pheno, super deep purple, frosty as fuck, smelled like orange air heads hardcore, the 2012 cement shoes seed was discribed as being pulled from a bag of bud from the emerald triangle at the time.





The reversed 2012 cement shoes (was fully seeded got about 300 seeds)

The seeded Gary Payton x Okie (pollinated 1 branch got about 40 seeds)

It's all in good fun so I'm not even bumming, plus my replacement seed shipped today. I never submitted a seed germination warranty before, I figured it was just a marketing stunt and wasn't going to get a replacement.

So I was just looking at the time-lines in the rules, what happens if my plant is still a seedling when the seedling time-line is over?

It is what it is! Your plant will be a bit smaller after the veg time ends but that’s no biggie size will only be 1 category, could be a tiny plant that looks like a damn star with how many trichs are coating it lol

I love the Controller 69, I have 4 of them so if you ever need help with settings or anything just let me know!!!

Temp and Humidity are pretty good for seedlings and some of veg, VPD is within veg range as well.
I would want to try and lower that humidity throughout the veg stage.

If anything, I would try to lower the temp.
What light are you using and on what dimmer setting?
Do you have an air conditioner? If not, you will probably need one when it's time to flower, you will be turning up light intensity and it's going to get even hotter.

I personally don't let me tents go above 78 degrees and 55% humidity after the seedling stage, 45% humidity closer to the end of veg.

Thanks I think I pretty much have it figured out. It’s my 3rd run with this setup. Lights a cheap Amazon 300w with no dimmer just a veg switch which is white and blue light and a flower switch which is red. You can have one switch or both on. Once it starts getting colder out I should be able to drop the temp to whatever it needs. Can you drop a screenshot of your automation? I see a lot of people using the vpd setting. This is what I use which seams to work out pretty good for me and keeps it pretty stable. But if there’s a better way I’m always willing to learn.

My little sprout is looking better. Already posted in the official photo thread so I'll just post this here.

 

[Mikedin]

Still have a half oz of that GP x okie left in fact
Still smells just as citrusy as she did when she first went into the jars

 

[Mikedin]

Wow…. Talk about weird, I haven’t found a single seed outside of the buds i intentionally pollinated, down to this last half, pull that bud to show y’all, said fuck it and broke her in half and popped it in the grinder and heard tick…

 

[RootFarmer]

Oh and I had one of my seeds finally put out a little tap root but it was not pearly white and happy looking. I planted it and gave it some Special Sauce.

 

[Mikedin]

Well fuck I just found my new golfin partner

 

[Putthataway]

Well fuck I just found my new golfin partner

I don’t man. In the 4th hole she will already accidentally hit you with her club. By the 6th she’s swearing and cussing then proceeds to make a call to her pharmacy for oxy. Then argues with whoever she’s talking about . You move on and she shows up just as you are about to move along angrier. Best of luck with your new partner!

So, I was thinking we should all make our own sub-threads about each person's 1GC, so people can keep track of our progress and/or learn a little more detail without sorting through the dozens of pages of comments, here.

Also, I don't know if the Farm has this capability, maybe something to ask @logic, but it would be cool if we had a place where we could write our grow diaries, but have the option to make them private or public, or only visible to certain people/members, etc..

Like in my instance, I'm all for sharing my grow info and pics, but I really don't like to post pictures of things I am actually growing at the time. Call me paranoid/old school/crazy but I've been growing many more years illegally, underground, than legally, and old habits die hard, and thieves will always exist.

I'm such a bagseed junkie, I never use grinders for fear of killing babies

I actually document my grows on growdiaries.com
My 1 gallon challenge grow is on there as well.

I've only recently started using it but it's kind of neat, you put in your strain, equipment, light settings, temp, humidity, ppm, nutrients, etc
Place for comments, photos, etc
Everytime a week passes, you click "add week" and put your updates in.
Each week is its own page so say you want to go back to a certain week in a certain grow to see what you did,
You just click on that diary and click on that week and all the updates and photos for that week are right there.

There's an option to Hide Diaries but idk if you can hide your profile.

The worst is when you don't know there was a seed and it gets ground up, you light up and hear a crackle, then taste the most awful taste.... everyone knows that taste I'm talking about...... like burnt popcorn but worse

 

[Bilber]

Ummm.....yeah.....instructions......schedules....they are there for a reason....

I swear, I will only post on my postable dayz, from the start of this beautiful day onwards.... I must've dreamt that posting days were Tues and Thurs......sorry challengers..

Awesome start for all, even if a seed didn't pop, pop one.......or 2.............possibly 7.........
