Whats up THC fam! Finished off my first grow last october and now im hooked! I have sinced moved to another state, got settled in and popped some beans! Im nearing the end of the 3rd week of flower, but ill start from the beginning to get you all caught up.
Last year i got the budget fem pack from msnl as i didnt know if i would like growing. So thats what im running with this run. Eyeing some sin city seeds for the near future though!
Had some seeds that didnt sprout and some didnt pop at all, maybe poor genetics? Anywho here we go..
2x fem white widow skunk
1x fem blue dream
1x freebie (dont remember strain)
3x fem og kush

Starting to get warmer, going to move the plants inside into a 2x4 tent as my outside tent is getting hotter. Wws#1 responded well to her new pot and topping. The others are chugging right along too and i will up pot and top soon.

Moved tent inside and Transplanted and topped 3 younger plants. Also topped older plant once more to have 8 mains. Everyone looking pretty happy so far. Been mixing 2.5 ml of root and seaweed feed per 1gl of water using regular tap. Tent temps 72-84 consistent, humidity 29-38%

Two wws finished with manifolding. All 4 looking healthy. But top left plant (freebie) is very squatty and has the slowest growth so far. Bottom left (blue dream) is stretchiest plant so far and has almost caught up in size to the older wws. Still feeding mostly tap water, sometimes a little bioweed and bioroot.

Set light to veg and bloom and timer to 12/12 today so tomorrow is the official first day of flower! Also added tomato cages. One plant seems to be having some clawing on a few leaves, def have to keep an eye on that, otherwise things are looking good! after defoliation pics, 1 of the wws i defoliated all the way to the cage and the older of the two had a lighter defoliation just to see what happens in comparison

RIP to the random freebie seed as i found balls on it, seemed to be female with pistils but also found some sacs. Didnt want to affect the rest of my plants so it went to the dumpster. Maybe the genetics were unstable? Going to get a new cob light set up for my next run and can use the vipar for veg or a seperate tent maybe? We’ll see when we get there.

Defoliated plants again starting week 3 of flower. Tied off some branches to keep a tight area to try and maximize the potential of my light. Out of the two wws, the one that i removed lower growth during first round of defoliation, has a more appealing structure and bud sites look more developed. Seems as it will be better off in the end. Blue dream is the tallest and has larger gaps in internode spacing. Both wws have great node spacing and are looking good. Temps are getting a little high and hitting 90 here or there and trying to keep them in check, usually stays no higher than 86 but its getting hotter outside! Also did first feed of nutes at half strength 5ml of bloom and 2.5ml bio marine per gl, we shall see how they respond!
Alright now we are all caught up to date! Plants are looking good and healthy, currently watering every 2/3 days whenever soil feels dry up top. Next watering i will feed again. Tomorrow marks the end of week 3 in flower. The blue dream has 3 branches that stretched way taller than the others and are nearing the light ~ 8 inches away so i positioned them to the outer part of the tent so they wont get any bleaching or too hot. Otherwise they seem pretty happy!
Watered today with 5ml bloom, 2.5ml bio bud, 2.5 bio marine per gl of tap water. Leaves looking perky, unsure if next feed i should up or not, they seem healthy so maybe i should keep it where its at. Starting to show some frost as well. Pics in order.

WWS #2
WWS #1
WWS #1
Added 2.5ml/gal of cal mg to the feed yesterday. We’ll see how she takes that and if she recovers. If not, its back to the drawing board.
Right now im watering every other day, and feeding every 3rd water. So water, water, nutes. Nutrients im using are from the GObox. And i am feeding at half the recommended doses. Plants are getting fed at 660ppm. I havent noticed any nutrient burn on the other 2 plants. I am getting some clawing on a few tips of the blue dream, i didnt expect her to grow so much larger than the others, she has to be a little root bound. WWS#1 is loving life and looking great
Just starting off week 5 of flower, hopefully i have taken care of the issue i had, as it seems to have slowed down. Gave the girls a little cal mg with their watering today as well. The tent is starting to smell pretty good when i open it up, i am def excited to see how they finish up in the next few weeks.
