My First Grow - LED strips and COBs in coco homemade basement madness personal experiment

The other girl scout cookies plant

And then the candy kush. These are true weeds. They are stubborn and greedy and gigantic. Towering buds and two of my small plastics have these. I planted these later and their root structure wasn't mature when I dropped them to larger containers but they have risen to the challenge. Love them but they are beating my other plants for space and cant stand up on their own because the buds are so big

More tomorrow but the girls are sleeping for now. I'm about 6 weeks into flowering so they are all definitely getting more and more unique every day.

Cherry pie - she is getting some nice loose orange hairs and getting very frosty in the sugar leaves. Not huge, like I said but still beautiful. Stalks have spread out bud sites so not connecting but compared to other plants more stalks reaching canopy overall...

Nice job so far, love having that same “plants can’t stand up by themselves as the buds are so heavy”...

Girl scout cookies - definitely starting to come into her own starting to get some coloration but very pretty plants. One is shorter and fatter while the other is taller and nearly as fat but damn this plant is special. These two are like incredible hulk and superman. Healthy and full and thriving. A true weed! These were small weak looking seeds but have been very strong.
This is the hulk top...with the clear alpha bud

And this is superman...ya got too close the sun about a month ago.

And stubborn germination candy kush. She needed more heat and humidity to pop..didnt quit on them! Very strong feisty and canopy thieves. The peak buds like to reach out over neighbors. Nice huge stalks and literally one plant cant hold itself up. These were behind and short but exploded during early flower stretch. This is apparently my "cheap" strain and I couldn't be happier with all 3.
One small bucket plant is the alpha with the three towers.

Both a blessing, and a curse..:p

Thanks! It's easy to get parts and stare at them. I refused to spend a lot on the some pre fabricated thing when you can just build it home depot style. I wish I started earlier but ya very fun and I made plenty of mistakes to learn from. Richard Dean Anderson is one of my heroes haha

Well everything is still going strong. I was all stressed because I was getting some lockout due to basically doing no feed to waste the entire grow. Twice, including a few days ago are the only times I have done any kind of waste. I put about 2.5 gallons of calmag 6.5ish water through and loosely checked the output until ph matched. Anyways, my drainage learning will be the focal point for my next run.

 

[CaliJersey]

I will say, running 2.5 gallons through containers without really being able to move them was more of an effort than I could have imagined. I think that's why I put it off so long!! About 5 hours of pain although macgyver would be proud. I set the single day siphon world record with no electronics....gulp

 

[CaliJersey]

Cherry Pie. She is picking up the purples and this just gives me pure happiness. Shes not a lunker but she is a sticky sweet treasure. She put out some amazingly long fan leaves which makes sense because she had to fight for against the others.

 

[CaliJersey]

Girl Scout Cookies - She is also picking up some purples. One plant appears a week ahead of the other and I'll need to manage that but so happy with this too. She has a longer flower time so the less developed plant seems more in line with 9 week target. I cant wait for more expression. Every day is a treat!

And Candy Kush. Haha they crack me up. These stalks are not really manageable. So big and towers everywhere. The yield will be high. She has these beautiful orange spots that come through where her hairs turn color in "clumps" as in patches turn rather than individual hairs. One plant shows some calmag deficiency so she was the one who really pushed me to act but these are almost ready to chop. Anyways she is falling over.
