QUICK UPDATE - BACK ON TRACK & PICS SOON!

OK, everyone. I'm still recovering from the temporary set back but we're getting back on track and I'll start posting some regular pic updates again, soon.

I cleaned the tents and all the equipment & containers and, right now, I have four G13 Labs White Strawberries in #1's with first run soil vegging in the Mars 4' x 4' tent under the SP-250's and two G13 Pineapple Express plants in #1's in the small tent vegging under the Mars Reflector 144.

I'll need to come up with one more plant for the big tent. I do have another two White Strawberries clones available but want to get something else in the mix and it's either going to be another IHG Platinum Cake or an IHG Apricot Jelly.

I'd like to run the Apricot Jelly, but I need to sex it first since it's from REG seeds, so I'm going to throw one AJ plant in my breeding cabinet today under 12/12 and, if she turns out to be female, I'll run a clone I already have as the 5th plant in the main tent. If it turns out to be male, I'll just run the PCake.

Happy Harvests!

I'm rooting for the Apricot Jelly and from what I'm reading ... I like the idea of starting with REG seeds and then pollinate/clone females as desired ...

Are you keeping one male and doing some pollination this round?

UPDATE - DAY #8 OF ALL DEAD! :thedoubletake:

Very sorry for the lack of updates and here's the situation...

The last set of pics I posted was on Friday, ten days ago. I had just given them a TP drench that morning. I didn't check in on them that Saturday but went to do a Brix foliar first thing Sunday morning, opened the tent, and ALL of the IHG plants were fallen over and wilted. The Blackwater seems to have survived.

I immediately tried rescue drenches, but, the soil was still pretty saturated from Friday's feeding so I couldn't get much in. I also sprayed with Destress for the next three days, but by last Thursday, I had pretty much given up since it was clear they weren't recovering.

I've just been very busy since Thursday building and filling a bunch of raised beds and was too depressed to update at the beginning of last week and too busy & tired to update at the end of last week; and I knew this was gonna be a long update.

This is the first failed grow I've had since my very first and not entirely sure what happened but I'm pretty sure it has something to do with that 3rd run soil (in no way blaming the Kit, though!).

For those that have followed my other journal, I was experimenting with some breeding just before I started this grow and the exact same thing happened with about 8 plants I had in the breeding cabinet which is, just after they went into flower, they all suddenly wilted and died.

I was feeding them Fox Farm nutes, but did have them in the same batch of 3rd run soil and, while I suspected some soil problems back then, I chalked it up to the combination of the 3rd run plus the FF nutes just being too hot for the clones in the breeding cabinet.

You can see from the most recent pictures that these looked incredibly healthy on a Friday and within two days, four of the five plants were dead.

I was pretty shocked and upset and apologize to the sponsors, but I'm going to keep this journal and setup for the next grow with a new mix of first run soil and I'm sure things will go much better since they couldn't have gone much worse! :rolleyes:

I'm not sure, yet, what I'm going to do with the one surviving Blackwater. I may stick it in the smaller tent, which should be harvested in another week or so, to finish or I might just cull it entirely.

I'll introduce the plants for the next round soon, which will be different strains, but need to get the tent cleaned out first.

Sorry this run turned out to be such a dud! :sorry:

Happy Harvests!

Looking forward to your next update ... let's finish this journal with a bang!!!
 
Thanks, all! :thanks:

Update coming tomorrow. Had a guest here for last 10 days and just dropped her off at the airport so now I can get "back to business". It will still be another month, or more, of veg, so plenty of time to go.

Sorry, Bro's! I was planning on that update on Thursday, but was really tired and went to take a nap for a couple of hours at around 4:00pm and didn't wake up until after 4:00am on Friday morning! :eek:

I'll get the pic update in today.

And, Brother @Duggan, I'll try to post a smoke report soon on the '79 Chrismas Bud. It smells like leisurely walk through a pine forest on a spring morning when the newborn baby skunks are out of their dens and quietly urinating on the freshly fallen pine needles. :yummy:
 
:headbanger: :cheer: Now, thats a proper description. Lovin it....:high-five:
 
Who doesn't love the smell of pine and baby skunk urine!?!?:rofl:
