Man oh man brother, I am catching up and holy shit the progress I missed!! Looking sexy and agreed with @Mikedin those purple hues coming through are 🔥
Thank you man I appreciate it 😍 ! Pheno 5 has got some strong RMQ genetics, she has blown me away this grow. Even though she didnt fit the terp description of the pheno I am still keeping her. I dont have any mothers right now so my tent is fucking empty HAHA its not like I don't have the room!
Regarding your question about seed storage, I personally store mine in their shipped containers, then in ziplocks and then in a storage container and placed inside of my refrigerator :)
Just dedicated a wine cooler to seed storage only in the lung room. She’s set to 46f low as it’ll go, should get some years out of em in here, longer than that would be freezer method, much longer storage ability but I get nervous freezing them keeping them cool and dry and dormant I feel is best (for me)

I have them inside a Tupperware with 10 silica packs, then inside that Tupperware is 4 smaller containers each packed with seeds and 2 additional silica packs
Thank you both! I ordered my seeds about half a year ago so thankfully I have a while to get some things together. Right now I have them in a cool dark place, in sealed mason jars with a cup of rice. All in original packaging. I need to get a small fridge or something, I might keep my eye out for a cheap one 2nd hand.

Here are the 4 pheno's I am running again, and I just bud-clipped all of their 2nd top nodes. There were 3 x doubles of clones but today I decided on which doubles to keep, so now my tent has plenty of space again. Number 5 is not really under the light because I am just keeping her genetics alive, not running her with her sisters.

Week 7 of Flower, day 46.

Girls were thirsty so I gave them 3 litres each, just rhizo in the water. We are in the end zone now, so I have dropped temps to 20C and humidity to 40-50%. Temps have become difficult to keep down, so I have connected a duct from my inlet fan to the front of my A/C to solve that issue.

Thanks for your input man! I really don't want my seeds to go dud like they did last time. Every seed pack that didn't pop after years of improper storage was a total waste of money, seeds cost a LOT here 🤣 so this time I gotta properly store them. Most people are saying the same thing, in original packaging and in the fridge, which makes my decision a lot easier. I'm going to buy a small fridge for the purpose.

I tired the freezer deal once... Once. 😞 Lucky it wasn't as stacked as my fridge is. 😁

I did some research and apparently when you freeze them you have to be more careful about temperature. I noticed most people store their seeds in the fridge, and only some people use freezers with temp control for LONG term storage. I appreciate you letting me know how it went for you, I think I am going to buy one of those really small drink fridges that are about the size of a medium size computer haha.

An early update.

Overnight a bunch of my buds started leaning over 🤣 ! If they weren't leaning into a wall then they were drooping below the canopy.

These stakes were a long time coming. Most stakes are supporting multiple branches.

Week 6 of Veg, day 38.

Girls were thirsty after a 6 day dry back, so I gave them 1 litre with just rhizo in it as their last water was a fertilizer feed. A bit of a jungle but not bad enough to warrant defoliation, yet.
100 1924


Pheno 3 in the top left corner (the winner) had to be bud-clipped again as she was growing too tall haha. Going to let the others catch up before bud-clipping them, I just needed her to slow the fuck down 🤣 .
100 1925


On a side note, I spoke to the breeder HeavyDayze about his strain and got some great advice and tips. Relevant bit of advice was to let them go the full 9 weeks, even if they look done at 8. I am in no rush, so I will do this.

Week 7, day 49. The last day of week 7.

Girls were thirsty so I gave them 3 litres each, with rhizo and microbe/fungi in the water.

I am noticing the buds look mature, but the trichs aren't done. It is the start of week 8 tomorrow and the buds just keep getting fatter. I am gonna take the breeders advice, and finish at week 9.

There has been a big change.

Today I went into my veg tent, and just like the past 2 waters Pheno 8 is the only one behind. Shes the smallest, she drinks far less, and whilst the others are almost ready for a water tomorrow she is far behind! I went into my flower tent, smelt my favourites, and she is nowhere near as good as her sisters, and shes smaller and required 2 boosters whilst the others only needed 1. Pheno 5 though? She might not fit the terp profile but what terps she has is amazing, and she might be the most beautiful plant I have ever grown.

So... I chopped Pheno 8 in the veg tent and replaced her with my 5th plant in veg, Pheno 5, which is this deep black/purple and extremely frosty pheno below. I had to make up for lost time, so I trained all of her tall branches. It took me like 30 minutes because she was quite set in her ways 🤣 . I now have 4 plants, for my next 4 plant run 😁 .

It's hard... I think we're the same, just finished week 8 yesterday, so maybe next weekend for the harvest for me..maybe.

Yeah I am half way through week 8 now, deciding what to do. Plants have started drinking less, started last water when I had to siphon about 200ml out of their saucers, so I am not sure if I will wait until week 9 like I wanted. I checked on them before lights out and by now the soil should be nearly dry and ready for water tomorrow, but there is still enough moisture that I wont have to water tomorrow 🤷‍♂️ .

Week 8 of Flower, day 52.

Believe it or not? The girls ARENT thirsty today, so I DIDNT give them 3 litres of water 🤣 I know I know this is quite the change, usually I say the direct opposite. As I said previously, they have stopped drinking.
