Day 7. 1st week of flower in the books


One week down 9 to go. Amnesia gonna be really stocky. My first round was only under a 100 watt board and no food. Just fox farm OF. So this time everything’s different, but in the right direction. I’m not seeing any frost yet. Hopefully start of week 2 it will start snowing .
Humidifier for 2x4 will be here the 15th.

Day 8 of flower

2x4 not much to show different.
2x2. Everything else rooted. And watered a couple clones plus aspiration seedling

White wedding is really starting to take off. Can wait to get a bunch of clones off her. Gonna really blow up outdoor. I know it. Also. Weather here in so cal is perfect from here on out. I don’t see any major cold snaps coming anymore till next winter.

 

[CultivationArt]

Hey @CultivationArt hope you are enjoying that weather.
Wow.
Here is the apple tree outside my back door.

I put Winter Princess in for content
Can you see the apple tree under 6 feet of snow.
I'm afraid I'll be waiting a bit before I get going outside.

Stay safe

Day 9 of flower

Moving along. Ace killer 1 has iron issues. But my recharge is helping that greatly. Plus the growdots recently added. Everything with the new food is got big smiles. So I’m looking fwd to this harvest. And thinking the road to get there is going to be bump free. So far 1 week problem free. Let’s go for 2. .
I flowered various stages of growth. From 5 weeks old to 2 weeks old. The 2 week old remains happy in 1 gallon pot. Healthy and very fast growing. No problems in the 2 weeks.


So now I wanna do that exact thing. 18 1 gal in the 2x4. Flower after a week or 2. 8-9 in the 2x2. Flower after a week or 2. I think better yields and better flower with much more head space. Meaning vpd would be easier to control. I’m thinking I could get around 18-28 grams per 1 gal. Now that times 16. And better quality tops. I mean. There would be no larf at all. So when that time comes. Prolly around may (or actually. I’ll have a another tent by then). I’ll get another 2x4 or 2x2. And use that to start my moms (or) I can wait till my outside plants are ready to clone. Take my 20-30 clones. Get them them roots in 10-14 days. And veg in 1gals for 2 weeks. Flower all 20-30.


If running all the same strains. Or relatively close in photo expressions (size) and genetic maturity. It should work out just as well as my 2 week old 2, 2 week olds. Pics below.

 

[CultivationArt]

The 2x2. Pics of the white wedding by ethos (my favorite atm) and looking very healthy. Like the rest of the seedlings-veg. Aspersion I’m praying for male. I have a list of great genetics for the first time. And I wanna start making my own.
I wanna cross the aspersion with white wedding and garlic. Increasing the indica traits, but iv learned expressions of the new strain won’t show until the f2s. So it’s a project I can’t wait to start. As well as my last of the clones rooted and remained healthy thru rooting. New method works so far 100% of the time.

 

[CultivationArt]

Roots! Garlic and akog 1

Day 11 of flower
Missed yesterday. Way pretty busy the entire day.

Any how. Watered the garlic and either today or tomorrow morning, I’ll water amnesia cut number 1. Ace killer 3 even with the wacky food intakes. I think I got that stupid color under control. Inner portions of growth appear to be returning to the right color. Everything else mostly seems fine. Just over 8 weeks still to go. So I got some time left. Gotta keep everything in check till then.

As for the 2x2. The clone section is growing with consistency and explosive growth. We’re at 12 hours of light outside. I could use one of my extra lights to keep things in veg. Just feel weird about having lights outside on. Kinda scetch. Anyways. I might hook up a light in my spare room closet and flower in there, all but one of each. I have around 4 of each strain that’s currently in flower in 2x4. I might be able to punch for a another week maybe in this tent until they gotta relocate and I start making plans for the 3 sponsored strains. But at least everything is healthy in there. Vpd and feed all in the sweet spot

Day 12 of flower.

Just a quick update. Because nothings changing.
Amnesia has some serious resin production for being at 12 days.

 

[CultivationArt]

Day 13 flower

Akog iron deficiency actually turned out to be a result from soil compaction because I used a bit to much worm casting I think. Recharge for 2 weeks. That’s the way i fixed that. Just upped my microbiology like crazy and turned that problem right around. So smiles over here. Resin production really starting to show now. Couple more weeks. And they’ll all be screaming in trichomes. Garlic getting to close to the light. I need to raise the lights but don’t have any shorter hangers? So I have to just make them my self outta fencing wire. Because we’re easily wasting a foot of head space. More.

2x2 is slowly turning to a jungle. I’m going to have to transplant all the clones into 1 gals and place them in a 3x6x5.5 box iv made in the past grows. Just to keep these ladies in veg and healthy until outside is ready. I’m at 12/12 outside still. SoCal south kern/north La. 77 highs. 55 lows. But sunset is 6:59pm and sunrise is 7:00am. So we’re not ready yet lol. I have randoms from last year growing every where. Idk how. My backyard last 10 years has been sprouting plants on its own every year. I let only one grow out each year to see how it turn year after year. It’s weird. Even had a male plant that survived the entire fall and winter. I noticed it when I went to amend dirt in February. Lol
I plan doing outside transplants around may. Or I might just transplant them all now and see if I can get a harvest before Junes solstice. But one thing I do know is the 2x2 needs to be cleared up for the blue dream, gsc, amnesia haze, white wedding, Bruce banner, and aspiration.
But everything is growing well.
Oh. And the pic of the individual clone is my second attempt with the coco going 50/50 mix perlite coco. Growdots kinda aggressively added for experiment purposes. And looking good. Ph 5.5 and 0.8 ec

Week 2 flower 2x4
3x7 added to the mix

So after transplanting 9 clones to 6inch 1 gals. Iv added the 3x7 closet/cabinet, which i placed all 9 clones in, under a 100 watt board. Still have a couple that are not quite ready yet to transplant. When ready. Those as well, will be placed in that cabinet.

So the 2x2 has been emptied by half and the space is well needed. Tomorrow it’s white weddings day to get transplanted. Like 1.5 gal or something. Wide containers. They love that size I think. Idk. Looks like it. Clones of the blue dream, gs cookies and amnesia haze will be taken soon. Those cuts will go outside as well at some point.



2x4 all watered. All growing along 2 weeks of flower

 

[CultivationArt]

2x4 15 days flower.


Not much to update other than more frost and lots more frost. This ace killer og by pacific seed bank are AWFUL. If you manage to get one to not autoflower. There is still 2 other phenos. One frosty. One not so much. But difference in leaves and all. Ace killer og number 3 is the keeper. Outta 6. 1 good bean. All sprouted.
1 female flowering, but poor flowering buildup
2 auto and culled
3 female flowering. Good pheno
4 auto culled
5 auto culled

I don’t wanna spend 60 bucks for one good plant in the bunch. I clone a lot. So I keep seeds in my vault. I depend on single good beans. I don’t always get big packs.

Gotta make some shorter wire hangers to use for my Iights. I’m maxed out with over a foot of headspace still to go. So today. That’s on my agenda.

2x2. Transplanting into 3x7 box (or whatever it is) out in garage. Outdoor stock needs to be happy till may. . Or I just flower em now. Idk. Still debating. So far 9 outta 15 are moved. The rest maybe tomorrow. Just need em to fully dry.

3x7 Response to lights are good. I know they miss their sweet spot. But this is what’s best for now. I gotta buy some more instruments for this box as well.
Essp if I wanna pheno hunt and test for breeders. I gotta keep opening space up.


Outdoor Dirt amending more and more in large cage. ChemD autos are sprouted. Just been windy and warm. So hard to keep up with moisture control. Humidity domes are a must till sprout. But wind blows shit off. Rough beginning. But still successful. Here’s some pics.

 

[CultivationArt]

2x2.

Transplanted white wedding 1 to one gal as well with the apparitions. And took my hydro experiment and placed her in Promix. She had large healthy roots. But temp of water was a battle I think. I’m not a hydro guy at all. She wasn growing. Only roots were. But look good in here. The new coco additions taking off I think.

I know the first one is. She’s growing fast. I water her every day now. Prolly twice soon. Ph 5.7 ec 0.8. I’m kinda getting the hang of it. Small update.

To anyone watching if anyone watching thx…..

 

[CultivationArt]

Day 16 flower. 2x4

Nothing to add. No watering. More frost. Fatter buds. Prolly going to top feed amnesia next watering. To early to be sucking nitrogen from the lowers just yet. Everything else still happy!!


2x2.

Training on blue dream and gsc. Had to cut the umbrellas off. Going to take cuts really soon. The coco plants are taking off. Gonna increase feed tonight.

Grow dots experiment had officially been affected. The clone I used is very dark green and curling leaves. But no frying. I used one table spoon to a 12 oz solo cup. Recommend is a teaspoon.
Now let’s see what happens with just water from here on out. When she’s ready for food again in this slow release formula.

3x7.
Nothing to update. Great response to light still. Drinking away

 

[CultivationArt]

I just like this plant a lot. Clone off the amnesia in front.

 

[CultivationArt]

2x2 response was right away. Quick train and easy train lol.

3x7 pic as well

 

[CultivationArt]

The coco clones doing great. Pic 2 was my first attempt. The others are a couple days old. Responding to food fast tho.


ChemD autos outside sprouted.


Topped the white wedding. Plan on doing the same as the others with training.


And a pic of what I spent in gas this afternoon. And only got 3/4 of a tank
80 bucks for 14 gal.

That's a tough one to swallow on the fuel.
I'm rural here , you have to drive to get anything.
Costs $25 now to run to town and back in my 23 year old truck.
Good thing I don't go often now.
Looks like we have to go electric sooner than we thought.
Great garden my friend.
When I get a minute ill show you my outdoor girls for the summer grow.
Take care my friend.

Stay safe
