DanC attempts Dank - p2

DanC520 · Sep 12, 2021

Getting stinky over here. Everything moving along. Some defoliation here or there, but nothing major. Probably should have done more on the Double Grape tbh. Some, what I think, minor nute burn on the Sour Stomper. Pretty sure anything I see on the Double Grape is light burn. Done my best to pull tall bits from light, but might have to do more. Strawberry Mango Crumble furthest along. Sour Stomper not far behind. Double Grape still has some time, though might be quicker than I think if doesn't bulk up.

Day 61: Strawberry Mango Crumble - Sour Stomper - Double Grape (all autos)

Sour Stomper

Double Grape

Next run taking shape. Auto water/drain system set up. Got timer programmed. Will let the plants get bigger before transplanting though. One seed definitely looks like a dud. I still have it in a rooter, but I doubt will pop. Just gonna run five. Of the five, one Creme de la Chem had some issues. Struggled getting out of shell and has been slow going so far. Might be a runt / stunted. Oh well lol.

Day 8: Creme de la Chem x2, Pink Panama, Forum Stomper x2 (all autos)

DanC520 · Sep 18, 2021

Cleared out a fair amount of leaves this week. I should have done more a few weeks ago. First couple grows I was more a little more aggressive, so this one was gonna let be more natural. Didn't top and only did some lst. Probably do a little more in the future.

They're all getting closer. Definitely in order of size. Smallest the closest. Also ends up left to right order when looking at the tent. Definitely some leaf damage/color change going on. With larger plant I think primarily light burn since so close, but could be some nute burn too. I think primarily nutrients/salts on middle plant. I got my eye on it all. Anywho, some pics (with cat hair)

Day 67: Strawberry Mango Crumble - Sour Stomper - Double Grape (all autos)

Going to transplant into bigger tent today or tomorrow. Probably today. One didn't germ. Maybe a dud. Maybe user error. All good either way. I got plenty of seeds lol. Four of the five seem to be on the right track. The struggler has continued to struggle. I think I see hints of 2nd node, so might make it. If it does, will be small unless the auto trait also delays itself.

Day 14: Creme de la Chem x2, Pink Panama, Forum Stomper x2 (all autos)

DanC520 · Sep 25, 2021

Moving into that couple weeks or so zone (IMO). Little too much light and little too much nutes. My runoff numbers are good, so not a build up issue. Not too worried about it all since getting close. I really want to chop all at once if possible. If not I have a drying location dilemma. That said, I won't chop a plant I don't think is ready. The double grape trim gonna suck lol. Anywho, some pics.

Day 74: Strawberry Mango Crumble - Sour Stomper - Double Grape (all autos)

Other tent up and running. Still getting auto stuff dialed in. I think I feed a little too frequently close to transplant. I dialed it back a little and will see what's up. The four that seemed ok pre transplant are doing alright. The freak is doing freak stuff. I'm just curious to see what it does at this point.

Day 21: Back: Pink Panama - Mid: Forum Stomper - Front: CDLC (all autos)

Quick update from my phone.

Small tent chopped a little over week ago on day 84. It’s up and drying at 65 degrees @ 55% rh. Trying to do slower than previous runs. Looks and smells solid. Will start trim and cure in the coming days.

Big tent is going along. One plant showing a little mag def I believe. LED in there and def needed extra cal mag last time in that tent. Just the one. That means struggle plant finally figured itself out, so it looks weird, but finally some normal leaves. The pink Panama, the biggest/healthiest, was thrown away today. I was seeing lil balls in a few diff spots. I topped it late, so I’ll put this on me for stressing. I know some say pluck and keep an eye out. But I don’t need that stress in my life lol. Think four might be the optimal amount of plants in there unless doing sog style.

I’ll take some pics while I trim in a few days. Already plotting next grow in small tent. Scored some white truffle seeds, so might do a photo run of that and a lemon grass. Just two. Three was a crowd in small tent.

DanC520 · Oct 18, 2021

As many have said before, trim jail is real. I could have been more efficient, but these were some leafy plants. That and the Double Grape was many smaller nugs. Basically full time job over 3.5 days. Satisfied so far with the results. Double Grape the frostiest, but all produced well enough. Double Grape has a gassy/plant smell. It's the one I'm hoping comes out more in cure. Sour Stomper smells like candy. Strawberry Mango Crumble, which the pics do not do justice, smells like fruity soap, but in a good way lol. Little over four ounces of DG, little over four ounces of Sour SS, little over two ounces of SMC. Thats dry nugs. Have two mason jars of trim for each. They're all in grove bags. Will crack in a couple weeks and see what's up. Here are some highlights going into the bags.

Other tent moving along at day 44 or so. Have two Forum Stompers and two Creme de la Chems left in there. Lights off so only have a pic from a few days ago. They're getting big starting to transition. Well besides the freak. I think that one might be slower to flower since was slower to figure its life out. I'm going to take out two of the drain trays and rearrange for the amount of plants. So I guess this a before pic.

middle are the forum stompers, front are the CDLCs. I'll snap a side pic of the freak so you can see what it did next time.

Really nice job on the Dank...straight up

FourPlants · Oct 18, 2021

Very nice work!

DanC520 · Nov 7, 2021

Update from my phone since been a few weeks. Buds just coming out of cure. Used the bags and seemed to have worked well. I pulled around a half ounce of each out of the bags and then closed back up.

Sour Stomper tastes/smells like funky candy. Mildly energetic high. Like do chores with music on type of vibe. Decently potent.

Strawberry mango crumble smells like the body shop, but in a good way. Much more stoney of high. I think this one the strongest of the bunch.

double grape is coated, another stoney high. But it currently still smells / tastes like butt cheeks, and not in the good way. I’m hoping longer cure helps. Did with a previous batch of diff strain. That said might be candidate for additional processing.

Big tent had another herm. It only had a few sacks, but was hardest one to get to. And I didn’t stress that one. So I took it out. Two remaining are full on flower mode. One taller than I’d like (again). This light has dimmer at least. Third one seems a couple weeks behind or so. It’s a lil stunted, but will produce. Pics next time I post.

Small tent set up again and I’m germinating some seeds. Started with a white truffle and a lemongrass. Lemongrass looks all kinds of messed up and idk if will make it. It shook shell but still in shell shape and top of stem like shriveled. So I pulled another white truffle out to start tonight. If lemongrass pulls through I’ll improvise.

Posting without pics makes me feel dirty, so I'll follow up now.

Small tent 9/30 harvest after 2 week dry and 3 weeks cure.

Big tent hasn't change much in two days. Day 66 in here and definitely think will go longer than small tent did. Chopped around day 85 in there. I find it hard to believe any of these will be done in three weeks. More like four if I had to guess, but first time with any of these strains. There some minor burn here or there. Some minor damage from contact/wind. But seem fine besides that. As I said above, one is too tall, So that's annoying, but it is what it is. The stunted one behind others by around two weeks. It's like the autoflower clock didn't start until it got its shit together. I already know I'm gonna have to improvise on drying location since both tents will be in use.

Forum Stomper (tall one in the back)

Creme de la Chem (front left)

Creme de la Chem (stunted freak - front right)

You can kinda see how it struggled at the base. Had odd dark green leaves for a couple nodes until got something normal going. The stem then grew out of that (obviously, I'm not a botanist. shit, this the most science shit I've ever done and I had a pager in high school). But seems to have sorted itself out so gotta let her ride.

Small tent back up and getting going again. Running photoperiods this time. If not, i'd be more annoyed by the germination timing I have going on. One White Truffle get put into solo cup last night. So its like day 1-2. Lemongrass all kinds of messed up still. So idk wtf is going on there. Back up due just started shooting root today. So i'll let that get a lil longer and will put in rooter like tomorrow. I'll put the two white truffles into 5 gal pots once the back up pops out of the rooter. Using solo cup to give back up time to get going. Once in 5 gallon I'll turn on the real light. Right now just some seedling bulbs in my germ station.

Lemongrass (freak)

DanC520 · Nov 17, 2021

No major updates since my last post. Ladies in the big tent humming along. Upped the feeding frequency and pushing the nutes a little more. I believe it's day 73. Right now, I'd say 3 weeks min to finish. Little longer on the runt.

CDLC #2 - the runt

Small tent just getting going still. The one White Truffle seeding coming along. Though I think I didn't have the little light centered, so it's a little sideways. I'll straighten it out when I repot. Other seedling broke surface a few days ago. I'm holding off until it's a little bigger and then will transplant both WTs to 5 gal pots. Most likely this weekend. The lemongrass freak is just sitting there looking like a sandworm or something. I'll just put it in the ground in my yard and let nature run it's course.

White Truffle #2 (its not connected at the top, I checked)

Sandworm

Since these are photoperiods, I am thinking about dipping my toes into the cloning gel, so to speak. Get one of those tray, dome, light, pad kits or something. I figure I have a few weeks to decide if I want to do it though. It sounds really cool on one hand, but space/time consuming on the other. Especially if you get a keeper. I have so many seeds as is. Decisions decisions.

love seeing another grower that grows to gift. i do the same, i hardly smoke myself. excellent lookin runs you've posted here. keep doing the good work!

Thank you! I partake plenty, but do enjoy gifting. Just slowly figuring this growing thing out. It’s still rather new to me in every regard outside of end product evaluation.

DanC520 · Nov 23, 2021

Chugging along in the big tent. The normal two are fatting up and starting to see some color change. Have some branches falling over on the Forum Stomper (tall one). Had to navigate into the back to prop them up. Kind of a pain tbh. Tent close to the wall there, so can't go in from the side. I think the move is to make sure front left plant trained/staked so there like 8 inches of clearance so I can slither by. Anywho, here we are on day 80. Still some weeks left it seems.

CDLC (runt)

Small tent is off to a rocky start when comes to a companion. The lemongrass came out like a freak. The 2nd Gorilla Butter ending up not making it. One of the starter leaves, cotyledon?, just died and then then it just stopped. I'm not particularly rough and conditions good, so idk. Plenty of seeds, so w/e I guess. Did mess up timing though. So I've pivoted. I'm going to run an auto with the photo. That way I don't have to worry about one being weeks behind the other when comes to time to flip to 12/12. I'm going with a Toofless Alien for the auto. Another Mephisto. In a shot glass now, so probably into a rooter tomorrow or Turkey day. Here is the surviving Gorilla Butter F2 / White Truffle on day16.

DanC520 · Nov 30, 2021

Starting to get close on the normal CDLC and the Forum Stomper. Tops almost there, but a bit longer on buds further down the branches/stalks. Not much to say besides that on these ladies, so I guess some pics of day 87.

Forum Stomper

Those all top nugs. Litte lower like next two.

While I had a potential drying issue last run, I definitely do this time. So after a bunch of xmas shopping for others, I ordered myself a 2x2 tent with a fan and filter. Its 4ft tall, so I can stash it in the closet in my grow room. Figure I can use for drying, seedlings, and clones.

The small tent is getting going. The White Truffle got topped today. It has stayed pretty short so far. The nodes are tight. But a lot of growth over the past week if compare to previous post. I also finally got a tent mate for the WT. After a couple odd situations, the Toofless Alien has arrived and has already been transplanted to her final home.

DanC520 · Dec 8, 2021

Close, but not there. That's how I feel about the ladies in the big tent. Tops are getting close, especially ones closer to the light. But tops further away and lower nugs still finishing up. Also not too much amber yet. Now I swear I saw somewhere that chasing amber on autos works a little different, but idk. I feel like they'll tell me when they're done regardless. Anywho, some pics on day 94 (already 9 days longer than previous run - not that that means anything. diff strains, diff conditions, etc.)

Small tent going as well. The White Truffle is stout, especially after topping. Started removing fan leaves here or there a few days ago. Started some lst today. Need to get her spread out a lil more before flipping. The Toofless Alien in there also continuing to grow. The first set of real leaves got a lil twisty turny. Not 100% sure why. Best guess is the daily feeding right after transplant, which was almost right after sprouting, might have been a tad much. That and/or the osc fan going on in there. I have it set to pass over the seedling, but might have caught her too much? I'd be surprised if it's the light since I have it pretty far away. That said as long as she doesn't stunt, I think it'll work out.

White Truffle on day 29 and Toofless Alien on day 8

Finally I'll add that I put together my little drying tent. It fit exactly how I planned, so that was cool.

DanC520 · Dec 14, 2021

Soo close in the big tent. Seeing pretty significant color changes now. Even the runt not too far behind. I'll let the plants tell me, but could be as early as this weekend. Anywho, some pics @ day 100

the continuing

CDLC (runt)

Small tent rocking now too. White Truffle on veg day 36 and Toofless Alien (auto) on day 15. I read somewhere that if running an auto on a 12/12, should wait until at least 4 weeks old. Two more weeks and the White Truffle might be pretty big. She really gaining steam now. Around 10 inches tall. Going to try take some cuttings for shits n giggles. Idk what I'll do with them if it works lol. I guess that'll be a good problem to have. I topped it, I've cleared out a lot of fan leaves, and I have lst going you can barely see. I'll still have to do a solid clean up a week or so before flip. Toofless Alien moving along now as well. The light is kind of high because of the WT, so might explain why she so spread out. Saw the first roots poking through the bottom of the pot today. Anywho, here are the ladies in the small tent.

DanC520 · Dec 17, 2021

Final images of the forum stomper. Gonna chop Sunday.

Microstraincollector · Dec 18, 2021

Good work here. I've got a few Mephisto seeds and it's good to see some solid results.
