Black African Magic

Hello,

New to the forum here.

Long story short over the course of my 30s I went from being super active my whole life, in great shape, to feeling like I inhaled toxic fumes, and feel sick with severe body aches 24/7.

I discovered medical cannabis a few years ago and it changed my life. After a few years I started thinking about growing.

Here we are!

The focus of this journal will be on two Black African Magic sativas. I have never grown a thing in my life so this is all new territory for me. In my wee grow tent I also have a Purple Diesel Plant and OG Kush plant that both came from bags seeds. These two are about 30 days old, survived the great flood of 2022 (yeah I over watered like a ding dong), and have managed to continue growing.

If I can get the B.A.M. plants to grow my hope is to clone them, and always have B.AM. growing.

Below is pictures of my B.A.M. seeds sprouting, planting, and off to the races. Flowering starts in 7-9 weeks (i checked repeatedly and am assured this is correct) so apparently this plant grows super fast, which thus far have proven so. Germination was 24 hours, the next morning the taller of the 2 popped up, the next morning the shorter popped up, it is now morning 3.

Things I know I will be studying as we move forward.

Continued reading on watering

Pruning/Topping (can these be used for clones?)

Temperature control (B.A.M. needs 10 degrees difference during flowering between night and day to turn “black”

Humidity control (humidifier for a humidor?)

Harvest

Curing

Drying

Attached is pictures of days 1-4.

Thanks everyone who has already helped and to everyone who tags along 👍🏻

Off to a good start @CPCannabis
Your topping/pruning question - topping is just the tip so no, I wouldn't try to root it unless you're going to chop 4" off
The lower side branches however are perfect for clones
Interesting strain, never heard of Black African Magic

Thank you very much. Definitely look forward to seeing this grow.

I was originally wanting a Sativa Landrace, I was thinking Panama Red, found this, fit the bill in every way, 29-30% THC, carypholene, myrcene, all the right stuff.
 
Man, been a wild ride for sure, I was an athlete as a child, actually signed a record deal with Warner Entertainment right out of high school, toured for 17 years. When I was younger I always had this weird “almost sick feeling”, Doctors always said “Allergies”. I had so much energy I could always push through. Touring was super active, always traveling, little sleep, super high energy shows.

Well, in my 40s now, my dad has 2 autoimmune issues, a neurological issues, and arthritis…So guessing what the doctors cant find in a me is one of those.

After the extreme beating on my body I am pretty shot. People look at me now, I appear in decent shape, look healthy, no one would ever imagine I have multiple days a week where I cant walk to the mail box.

Oh…Gumby and Pokie are the best 😏
 
ya the little seed only has so much energy,, you can see she is bolting and will soon run out of energy unless photosynthesis takes place.. usually when a seed sprouts ( in the ground) as it pulls it self up out of the soil,, friction will pull the husk off.. but when germinated it sometimes has trouble and needs a little hand 👋
 
Morning 5:

Wee spray for the B.A.M. little guys. Today is day 5, definitely growing faster then PD & OG, however, I was over watering those. I am assured this plant grows wicked fast so…🤞🏻

Soil still has moisture for OG & PD, no water. At this point I should be doing Wet/Dry cycles for PD and OG, correct?

I have a vent fan letting air out of the tent, I use the flow of air out to control the temp, if I open the vent all the way temp drops, reduce and temp rises. I am getting 79.4 with lights on, 72 with lights off. I need 10 degrees difference between night and day simulation so my hope is reduce down and get 82 day 72 night. Does anyone think 82 would be too hot?

I am thinking of putting in a digital humidifier, however, wouldn't the humidity in the air just exit the roof vent? How do you all successfully add moisture content to the air in your tent without losing it?

Thanks again everyone for the help! 🤙🏻

Alright, I imagine as I get rolling two updates in a day wont be normal. Between am and now I feel like PD (top right) started drooping like it needed water, soil was dry to my second knuckle. OG (top left) was just starting to droop.

Gave them a drink, wee spritz to the BAM babes.

🤙🏻

I discovered medical cannabis a few years ago and it changed my life. I live in an illegal state so I drive to a legal state for cannabis. After a few years of that I started thinking about growing.

Funny y'all talking about health. And I been from last July. Started eating right.. but not really. Found key to healthy body. Which not one person in this world without Google will tell you what's they key.. key is PH level in your body and plant fiber . All foods since 70s when fda got involved took out all plant fiber from foods cause without it. Body goesing into sugar levels heart problems etc. Etc. This two things. Keep the body sick. If they don't have it. Virus bacteria can't live in alkaline body and body can't function without plant fiber. Why they told u eat ur vegs.. sorry had to chim in on that one. Fda just released doc that verified the plant fiber in food. Few weeks ago. I lose 2 pounds a week since July. Over 30 pds now. And I haven't stopped eating pizza yet . Plant fiber adheres to fats and chemicals that body doesn't want to absorb. Figure that was taken out. 1/3 of illness would drop
 
Can remember what day we are on…
But things are growing fast!!!
