Day 14 from flip. Day 7 flower.
‘Things have been on autopilot. I just stay out of the way and let the soil & the ladies sort it out. They know how to grow better than I do so they’re running the show and I’mon environmental control duty.
I have always found comments like this so interesting..... "Day 14 from flip. Day 7 flower. " Does that mean that day 1 that you change your lights from veg cycle to flowering cycle is not considered the first day of flowering? I have seen it a bit and not seen it actually confirmed. From what i have always done is start counting day 1 of flower from the moment i flip lights to 12/12.

Yes, I always allow the first week to be the transition and day one is when the pistils start emerging around day 4-6. It took a couple of these girls 10-12 days after flip before pistils were showing, so a few are behind the others.
4-18-21
Week 5 Day 35
Cruising into week 5 and the ladies are doing their thing. One thing I wanted to mention was that since week one or two I’ve been feeding them all at least 1/2 oz of BioThrive Bloom every watering along with Mammoth P once per week. The Pink Runtz clone, Fire OG clone and Blue Gelato 41 actually needed more N so I gave them 1 oz of Bloom each watering until they got back on track.
I also top dressed the ladies with 2tsp of Langbeinite to get their sulphur content up. I’ve read that sulphur is a terp enhancer and I’m all for that! It’s NPK ratio is 0-0-22 so I used a little under 1/2 the recommended.
When I flipped to flower I had about 10 other plants that I took to my next door neighbors grow to continue vegging and a couple of days ago I took the Sundae Driver Mother and brought her out to veg under the sun. She was in the corner of his veg and needed more light.
Transplanted 12 of the 16 clones I’ll be flowering next.
I’ll transplant the 4 that’s in solo cups once those in the small room have finished in the next few days. They’ll veg there until I harvest and dry, there should be ready to flower at that point.
Clones for after the above are done.
I’ll more than likely veg these under the sun since I have a few months before they’re needed.
No more waiting, I went ahead and gave them some light. They’re under a 600w mh dimmed to 50%. Better to have them waiting to flower than flower room waiting on them.
Week 6 day 42
More and more pistils are turning brown and getting pink hues from some that are further along than others. Smells are becoming stronger also. The pink and white runtz terps are filling the room, very sweet, bubblegum’ish aroma. I know I’ll have to turn the scrubber up on this run. Al in all everything is going well, still feeding 15-30ml bloom every other day but will begin to taper off this week
Things have pretty much been on cruise control. I’ve brought the CO2 levels down to 1100ppm, day temps 76-78F & night temps 70-72F and will continue to drop all as the weeks progress.
With this being a multiple strain run, some of the girls are a week behind the others. Some are 8-9 week strains and some are 9-10 weeks, so the goal is to harvest all around the 9.5 week mark (hopefully). Everything is finishing nicely and colors are starting to come out on a few, I’ll start checking trichomes at week 8.
