[Newty]

Strain - White Runtz x Okie
Type - Photoperiod
Germ/Seedling Medium - Happy Frog
Veg/Bloom Medium - Pro Mix HP Mycorrhizal
Nutrients - Synthetic (Flora Series)
Pot Type/Size - 4.4 liter Air Pot, base moved up 2 rows to make closer to 1 gallon.

In my previous updates, I thought I had a constant droop but I don't think I actually had an issue. I was checking on my plant 1-2 hours after lights on and 1-2 hours before lights off and it was in fact "waking up" and "going to sleep" when I was checking it. I found this out when I checked in the middle of the day when I wasn't working and seen no droop lol. I've been watching it and like clock work, droops till a certain time in the morning and starts drooping again later in the evening.

Have not needed to water again, is drying though and seems like it will need some tomorrow.
Will continue same nutrient dose as last watering, will slightly increase the watering after this one.
Currently at,
Armor Si - 1 ml/gal
Flora Micro - 2.5 ml/gal
Flora Gro - 2.5 ml/gal
Flora Bloom - 2.5 ml/gal


Those lower nodes shot right up since last update, almost time for LST clips!

Tuesday, week starts out.
Northern lights
Still in happy frog standard brown red bag potting soil.
It’s finally taken off after the mites and iso damage in the cure. Lots of lush green foliage and growth. Since the iso effectively topped the plant it’s already forked and developing a third main branch. Also trimmed a few leaves provide more light penetration.
I may need to add some fertz in the near future as all growth is real pale.
Keep growing in you buckets,

Let’s get it! Shared pics in discussion but it’s submission day!

Top fans removed (video) to expose lower nodes, few days and an up pot and we should see an explosion of growth, need to mix up some soil for the up pot as well as soil for my Maui 86 run so I think it’s time to mix up a batch of supersoil to cook for the next month and a half

Soil will be used for the gallon challenge as well

Current plan is
Promix base
Azomite
Gaia 444
Gaia 284
Epsom
Gypsum
Earthworm castings
Bone meal
Myco
Kelp meal
Fish bone meal
Possible blood meal may keep it out

Fish Sh!t
Advanced nutrients mikes OG tea
Fox farms microbe brew

Monday Update…..on Tuesday.

Life happened yesterday and didn’t get the opportunity to post.

Topping the plant and removing the lowest 2 branches resulted in 6 side branches and 1 top branch.

The 6 side branches were topped again late last week, and the inner bud sites and foliage were removed.

Top dressed with 1 Tbsp EWC and 1 tsp Dr. Earth AP fertilizer, and watered in with sprout tea. Pictures were before watering so she is looking a little bit droopy. Lowest leaves are just starting to show some N deficiency. I plan to up pot 1 last time on 9/16, that will give 2 full weeks of recovering before flip, and almost 2 full weeks of recovery since topping and trim. She will also get a fresh infusion of new soil, that will be charged with nutes. Will probably start to amend with Chick-N-Poo next week, so it becomes available during flowering.

SJ looking a little down in the dumps the past couple of days. Leaves a bit droopy and losing their shine a bit.

I will let her dry back a bit better (thanks @Mikedin ) then at next feed up the amount of nutes a bit

 

[Galgrows]

Here she sits broken hearted trying to grow but only farted yep that's Darla. She's a funky slow medena

While the entry is thriving, the topped clone has roots but still slow and if it don't hurry I will need to sts the entry as seeds from this beauty is more important to my project. But I really want a sample.
And yes I know I need to clean up, but it's hard to believe it's just over a month since seed.

Tuesday update: c99 x blueberry
Coast of Maine stonnigton blend mixed with coco peat mix about 70/30. Been watering/feeding every 3 days so far but may have to go to every other day soon. Using mega crop 1 part with a little bat guano every watering. I’m at a little over half strength may bump it up to full strength next feeding.
I topped her on Saturday and the lower branches are already getting bigger. Did an epsom foiler spray a cpl days ago(1 tsp epsom 1ga. Water).day temp is 77-78f night is 71-72f day humidity is 64-65% night is 60% day vpd is 1.1-1.2 night is 1. Last week I turned my lights to a 17/7 light schedule and yesterday it went down to a 16/8. I gotta check the dli I’ve been slacking in that department. Only have a lux reader so it’s a lil tricky lol.

Hey all! Tuesday update : GMOxOkie, I cant seem to find her sweet spot(“just an asshole who cant sweet talk the princess”) bonus points if you know who spits that! This thing should be twice as big as it is and I dont know how to get it there. (I do but it’s too late at this point) I was probably over watering and had my light powered too high and hanging too low. @Graham.Bagg Caution? Never heard of her! loved your posts this morning topped her and am not looking back! Im watering today also, she’s GOING TO EAT!!!

I plan to keep it going, it's a reversal i think i have to do and since it will be poison and can't use i will spray a lot of it and move to another tent which will slow her down but I want moore of these seeds and it's needed for an auto triploid project I am working on.

 

[Thukah]

My stunted 3 bears OG auto keeps crawling along, the others I put outside are rather small too. The Yellow haze regular seeds I popped in the same tent, around the same time are about 2ft tall already...

 

[Zer0Tolerance]

Not too much changed these last few days. Just did some more training today with the new growth to keep her spread out. Will likely top again on all nodes after they've pressed out just a little further.

Grape Crush x Med Mass
Roots Organic soil and Terp Tea Ammendments

Tuesday September 10th update. One of the girls have an issue with her leaves, looks like light stress or some deficiency. I have started cronk nutrient program with week 2 veg (see Chart) Other gal looks healthy after topping and mains are coming in. Starting with light weight lst. A little rubber wire holding pressure on the mains to influence main branches to have even growth.

 

[Mikedin]

I submitted this morning but circumstances have changed, picked up her pot as she was dry and ready for a watering, checked out her roots and could clearly see them being air pruned by the holes was like cool, then looked at the bottom… damn tap root stickin our 2”, well earlier than expected up pot, it that’s ok it’ll give these amendments time to break down a bit and get those microbes explodin

Left an inch for future amendments but shouldn’t be adding much just some teas and fish shit, bit of Gaia green and azomite mixed in with water to let it get deep into the pot when needed
