WW#1- Round 2 Day #56

Hello community,

Everybody is looking pretty happy, for the most part. The 4 ladies looked like they were lacking nitrogen last time I watered them, so they received some age old grow (12-6-6) in addition to their usual routine. Next time I grow this way i think I’ll add a handful of EWC as a top dress around week 2 of flowering to keep the nitrogen levels up for a little bit. My last round I saw the same problem around the same time. I know they don’t need a ton of nitrogen in flower but it’s super important that they have enough to keep all the plant processes working properly.

The SCROG/SOG is looking fine. I trained a lot of tops down under the screen yesterday and this is what they look like today.

WW#1- Round 2 Day #60

Hello community,

It’s flowering day 30 for the 4 ladies. So we’re basically at the half way point and they look pretty nice. I’m seeing some leaf “tacoing” but overall not really concerned. The buds keep getting fatter and fatter.

The SCROG/SOG tent looks fine. They have been in flower mode for a couple days now, I think.... I’ve been busy and not home much so I haven’t been paying attention to the first sign of pistils.

Anyway... here’s some pics like usual.

WW#1- Round 2 Day #64.

Hello community,

It’s day 35 of flower for the 4 ladies. (5 weeks)
I messed up my timeline last post, and I could still be messed up. Haha.

The SCROG/SOG tent is on day 12 or 13 of the 12/12 light schedule and the ladies inside have been flowering for at least 5 days now.

Not much to report... I’m still using the same nutrients as last grow minus the liquid seaweed stuff. I “top dressed” the 4 ladies with a couple handfuls of FFOF and watered it in with a full dose of cal/mag, HPK, liquid karma, roughly 5ml/gal of age old grow, (due to start of N def) and about 1tsp/gal of molasses.

The 4 ladies are much greener now and will be ready to start “fading” in a couple weeks.

The SCROG/SOG ladies received about 10ml/gal of HPK and liquid karma this time around, (Nitrogen levels look good) and roughly 1tsp/gal of molasses. I’ve been picking leaves from the SCROG ladies here and there. Done some tucking and supercropping as well. The SOG could be better looking but will still be interesting to see what happens.

Oh... the clones and seeds. Duh.... I took 6 or so clones from the SCROG lady last night. They have pistils/tiny flowers but should root fine hopefully. 24 hour light ATM. Also, I soaked 3 WW and 2 AK-47 seeds last night and now they are in the tin foil packet you will see on the heat mat. The seeds are wrapped in a moist paper towel, within in a sandwich baggie, and wrapped in a couple more paper towels before they were wrapped in tin foil and placed on the mat. I should be able to drop the seeds in soil tomorrow.

So my friend got upset that was not growing the AK these last 2 rounds. So, since he likes to partake when he visits me, I figured I needed to add it back to my very very small arcenal of strains. Haha. The 3 WW seeds are just insurance incase the “flowering” WW#1 clones don’t do well. And maybe I’ll find a “Super Pheno” out of the original 10 seed I bought from some random seed bank years ago. (They have turned out to be super reliable and stable thus far, I still have 2 more WW seeds left after this... and 3 AK-47 freebie seeds that seem vary in traits a bit)

Anyway... more pics.

WW#1- Round 2 Day #65

Hello everybody...

I popped them beans today. 2 AK-47 feminized and 3 WW feminized. Same seeds as my last round.

The tents look good. I lowered the lights a couple inches in the right side tent. No pics of that today tho. Just some of my beans.

Here’s the 2 AK seeds.

And here’s these WW seeds, I named them Green Root, Long Root (not long), and Baby Root. Just to keep track of that funky green lookin taproot.

***Meant to add to last post***

Seeds are in straight FFOF. Prior to dropping the beans, the soil was soaked with R/O water containing 5ml/gal of liquid karma.

 

[Backlipslide]

Congrats on the seeds!

 

[The Mechanic]

Congrats on the seeds!

Thank you... I hope they all sprout.

So far we have 100% germination rate with these seeds. (The only seeds I have ever bought online... or anywhere for that matter)

WW#1- Round 2 Day #66

Hello community,

Not much going on today, just watered the 4 ladies.
(5ml/gal of calmag, 15ml/gal of HPK, 5ml/gal of liquid karma, 1tsp/gal of molasses, and a healthy sprinkle of Epsom salts on the top of each pot)

So I wanted to post some pics of the SCROG/SOG. I have a close up of the best looking SOG bud. They are on day 14 of 12/12 and probably about day 7 of flower mode.

Anyway. Here’s some pics.

I love these silly little lightbulbs, and this pattern I have going right now.

WW#1- Round 2 Day #72

Hello community,

Today the 4 ladies are at 6 weeks and 1 day of flower mode. They are looking very nice and I see the slight hint of pink coming in that I was so excited about last time I harvested the WW#1.

The SCROG/SOG plants are looking good. The big SCROG plant needs more nitrogen already, so last time I watered her I also top dressed with a bunch of FFOF soil. (Close to 2 gallons probably) Hopefully that leaches some nitro into the soil the more I water. Next time I water I’ll add some more Age Old grow also, that stuff always seems to take care of my nitrogen problems.

The seedlings... they look good, they broke ground on Wednesday, except one WW (baby root) did not make it. I’m still leaving her in the soil Incase she decides to surprise me and sprout. So the little babies stretched more than I wanted them to... but that’s my fault for not having proper light positioning. Sall good.

The clones look good. They all have roots and the roots look great actually. Super white and fuzzy coming out of the cubes. They will receive solo homes tomorrow or the next day probably.

Here’s some pics.

Your flowers are looking real nice!

Yeah, like you said. Sal Goodman! Haha I love that show.

when ready for transplant, bury some of the long stem and you will be rocking!

 

[The Mechanic]

Thank you @Backlipslide , will do.

 

[Backlipslide]

I’m sure you’re aware of this, and I’m sure you’ve got one in there, but if you have a small fan gently blowing on them, that will help to strengthen them up a bit for ya!

WW#1- Round 2 Day #79

Hello community,

Here we are on day 50 of flower for the 4 ladies. They received a plain watering today. And a half strength watering the time before that. I’m going to chop 2 ladies down on day 56 and 2 ladies on day 63.

The SCROG/SOG tent is looking pretty happy. They are on day 28 of 12/12 I believe and probably day 21 of flower mode. The SCROG lady is still lacking nitrogen but I will take care of that when she needs water next.

I didn’t take any pictures of the clones or the seedlings but they look fine. Maybe I’ll take some pics later.

Hope all is well, here’s some pics.

Thank you @stoneotter

Not too bad for my first real attempt at a scrog. Haha. The SOG plants are just cool I think, cant wait to see how they compare.
