Pterostychus: The Never Ending Story, Now Jack Herer

Like Van said, "please don't take these comments as advocating that everyone should track it." You only note what matters to you! Van is a stats guy who is pheno hunting and making his own crosses. He tracks practically everything you can about a plant's growth :).
Yer see thats what I mean for him its pretty important. For me im just happy if I got nice bud at the end. When they finished they finished lol.
 
Is it wrong that Im very loose with tracking days etc.
I always check back and have a look at certain points and i occasionally check how far into flower they are but thats when im feeling impatient and an itchy snipper finger.
Im one of those people though who has an awesome memory for things i wanna remember or NEED to remember but everything else just floats off into the distance lol.
Always been a free flowing type of person. My environment and circumstamces have been changing a lot recently its been a case of waiting for autos to finish before flowering photos (also wanna get them back to 100% health before flipping), Electricity blowing in a storm in one shed so Ive HAD to be that way. Like i said I will be looking back when i flip to check how old they are cos i suspect they will be massive by then and im intrigued to see how big they are when they are done.
I can definitely see the benefits of taking your own data on strains etc. But even then its more usefull when taking clones, preserving genetics/pheno hunting things like that. If ya still at the point of flipping through different strains one or two seeds at a time theres things i feel are more important. Terps, THC, bud structure, yield (to be fair timeframe has a part to play in this).
Ive noted strains I love and were easy to grow first then I would worry about flowering times later down the line when I get in a quantity of the strains i love to start breeding.

Bit of a rant but Im lit right now and in the zone :ganjamon:
Hows it going PT? You good my friend?

hey there friend, happy to have ye pass by :)

yea i am a bit like you ... the only notes i take are mental notes ... things that work in my specific situation etc etc ... but if ye wanna start developing your own strain(s) you have to turn a craft in to a science ... think of it like this ... the grain we grow nowadays is the result of science-ing the crap out of the grain ppl grew centuries or even millenia ago ...
for now i am growing on feeling ... whatever works right ...? but if i ever wanna get killer yields i need to crank up the science part a notch and start to take actual notes instead of mental ones hehe ...


P>T

I really do, but I also am not currently working and I am working on making this my job!.....and not its not bad that you don't track it as long as you know how to read a plant (which isn't hard if you pay attention). I am like you, I have a great memory for the most part...not quite photographic, but similar. Having said that, growing so many strains made me revert back to to documenting it for clarity. Again, to each their own!
 
to each there own ... i smoke to that ... :)

anyway ... whats today ??? its day 82 from seed and 28days or four weeks in flower
at least 3 more weeks to go ... i am expecting to start to see swelling on them flowers really soon ...
im running low on herbs from last harvest, but that wont make me harvest early in case you might wonder ... i can always turn to my friend from the street or dig into my hash pile and score more decent, smokeable nugs ;)







 
day 83/29

all is well in the garden ... will continue to pluck some leafs every day ...







 
day 54 from seed day 30 in flower

she is filling out well she noticeably has started to swell imo ... also i find it starts to show that i pluck a few leafs every day, she is getting more see through, i find it detrimental to not have have decent airflow throughout the bush she is a windpollinator after all :ganjamon: tis not that i want pollination ... i just wanna make her as horny as possible lol ....









also last night ive tested runoff once more she sat at 6.27 ish still a bit high i will keep giving her 5.6 feeds until Ph normalises
 
day 85 from seed day 31 in flower

all goes well in the garden of pixie dust ...
also got my magic truffels today and i won 3x critical feminised seeds to be added to my next order ;) guess some day ive gotta try photos again ... anyway ... enjoy
