What’s Update Seedsman Sponsored Journal - How Does Your Garden Grow? – 100% Organic Garden & Brain Rehab – Mar 4, 2018
Hello 420 Family & Supporters,
Now that we have the initial scent test done, I’m going to add their flavor profiles to their titles so I can remember the results.
Here is a picture of the ladies in their hut with the lights off and flash off. Ooooooo, isn’t is cozy. As you can see here I am using a mister to maintain a level of humidity throughout their light cycle. When it’s sleepy time, the timer turns it off. It’s a perfect balance for two plants who need to share the same space. I got mine at Sage so it was pricey but because they are so small and do a great job, I bought one for other space. Now I don’t have room humidity issues.
There is a waterfall mist to greet them every day, kinda like a spa, but for plants. Anyways, you could just buy a humidifier but it does take up precious space when I need every inch. And it doesn’t affect the temperature at all.
Some more secrets to my success.

Sweet Indica Lady #1 – 1 gallon – Side View
*Let’s play a game, name that deficiency? Okay so let’s challenge the brain shall we? The lower middle leaf shows signs of calmag, easy fix, increase cal mag. Anything else? Nute burn, yeeeesss you’re all right, very tips are tainted.
Last one, what is the last deficiency right before your eyes??? Who wants to answer this one…looking around…okay YES, that grower in the middle…answer I can't hear hahahaha…CORRECT, ding ding ding, there is nitrogen toxicity by the hanging of the leaf tips that makes it look droopy.
Wow you guys sure are smart. Thanks for testing your efficiency by naming that deficiency! Hahahahaha stop it brain! Stop goofing around!
Factoid Alert: Deficiencies can often tell us if the plant is difficult, medium or easy to grow based on its' reactions to my errors. So it's not a loss at all. I would class this plant as EASY to grow because it's handling 3 deficiencies right now but her bud sites are lush and healthy. Don't forget, that to trouble shoot deficiencies the answers are always in the roots.
------------------
Sweet Indica Lady #1 Height – 1 Foot or 12 inches - in b/w cause the pink lights were too bright and I couldn’t turn off the lights cause they were on a roll.
(Thanks to Troy for this idea!)
------------------
Coffee Sativa Lady #2 height is currently 1.7 feet/19 inches. I hope my math is right.

Coffee Sativa Lady # 2 – 2 gallon – Top View –
Are you thinking what I’m thinking??? MORE SPACE, okay don’t have to yell Lady #2.
Luckily, when I made this space, it’s expandable width wise, but not height wise.
------------------
Sativa Lady # 2 – 2 gallon – Yikes there’s TRICH’s already. YES!
This is Trich Lee, director of Jungle Fever. Hahahahaha Stop it brain! Not funny!
This appears to me that she wants to flower NOW. I am doing last minute tip spreading because she is already moving on. Don’t want to overdo it because I’ll crush precious tiny trichs, so I'm only touching the tips of the leaves now and letting the weight of the stalk pull it back like grass in the wind...these are the strains of our lives...
Hahahahaha Stop it brain! That's old material! Har!
Hopefully all this work pays off again, I was estatic with my results before and I’m improving my shakes by doing this intricate work. It tells me that I can be productive with ocd and make it WERK!
------------------
So I’m controlling the growth of this aggressive sativa by lowering my light a bit, that tells her that she’s hit the ceiling, time to slow down the stretch. Unless she throws me gang signs and proceeds, then I’ll have to raise the light back up.
This could either be a great call right as flowering starts, or it could cause heat stress. But honestly, if you don’t push the strain to its maximum capacity then how will you ever see her ultimate true potential.
I check on her every hour, is that obsessive, or progressive? It’s my medicine, it has to be impressive, comprehensive, not expensive, just enough to help me live.
------------------
The speed is picking up and we’re now entering 3rd gear coming out of a corner. Don’t get in Lady #2’s way cause she delivering coffee and we’re getting SERVED. Snap!

Much love Sweet Coffee Lovers!
I'll be by to visit your journals tomorrow... no update here tomorrow because I'm dedicating my time to doing my rounds.
