September 14th, Daily Update
It's been a busy work week so far. But it's been interspersed with special deliveries, first the mars hydro light came. The mars II 1200 is immense check it size and how it compares to the mars II 400. I was flabbergasted when I opened the box, it's as big as my tent almost.
The Mars II 400 was heavily discounted to a new grow protégé, that I've goaded into starting up for himself. He didn't want to take it free so I made him a ridiculous offer. Here's to another future member, cheers Mun. It's only a matter of time before the fever sets in and he's here posting his request for help and undoubtedly a healthy harvest.
He asked what my number one advice was... I said. Sign up for 420Magazine.Com, you'll not be disappointed. That's a hats off to you all, thanks everyone for making this a great place to learn.
Anyway, back to the excitement. Cropking seeds have arrived via magic fairies. They brought stickers and some awesome lapel pins. I used to collect pins so these are super cool to add to my dusty collection. I ordered two auto strains, trainwreck and amnesia Haze. Both sativa leaning with moderate thc levels.
I've also splurged on seeds from Gorilla Seeds. Lol i spent way too much, but I don't think I'll regret it. I won't get too many opportunities come about to have a discounted seed purchase. I figured I'd make it count, right. I'll save some excitement for when they arrive but for now, I'll say... Jedi Stinky Snid will be doing some Skywalker Kush Jedi training.
So that's been an utterly amazing experience, I thank and cherish all of you that are sharing this experience with me and with the 420fam. Let's get on with the meat and potatoes of this update. How are the girls doing today?
Seedlings - Temperature : 79>72°f / Humidity : 55>42% Rh
GHcheese
Day 20
So impressed I'm showing it again, these roots at 17 days. Advanced Nutrients Root Tribe all the way! Wow
PAchunk
Day 20
Bubblegum
Day 14
Atomic Bomb
Day 13
Notes ~
The up-potting has not seemed to slow these girls down at all. GHcheese has extended her lower branch close to an inch since yesterday. Tie down training has commenced. PAchunk is not far behind, both of these will be cross flux structure. Bubblegum is stout and compact not getting the height I wanted, I may abort the corkscrew for this one and train her normally. It's time to top her if that is what I decide. The atomic bomb however is being an ideal candidate for this training. I removed the leaf on the under side of the stem. I have installed the counter acting tie, and bent her over before the cotyledons. This is going to be the corkscrew/ tornado, she off to good start. I just hope her roots grew as explosive as the GHcheese's did. Let the fun and games begin...this is exciting too.

Hailey the giraffe auto great white is making things difficult for me. The top fans are curling under the heat of the light, which is a maximum height in its current configuration. Im trying to find a shorter anchor cords to raise it up another 2 or 3 inches. Bailey and Crystal are tall but more like autos than Hailey that's for sure. Their Colas are filling in like clockwork. It's very fun to watch these beauties get frostier and Stinkier with every passing day. Debbie diesel Berry is smelling of tangerines and benydryl cough syrup, very interesting. She is budding up like a champ and should have very similar structure to my late great Hubbabubbasmelloscope.
The autos are now under two twilight group LEDs. One 864w mostly bloom light, and the Gs600 with both switches on. I removed the mars II 400 and "donated" it to a friend so he can start growing. It's his kick in the pants,

Notes ~
Cleopatra is all but ready for the chop, her amber trichomes are pervasive up top and nearing 10-20% lowers and 30-40%mids. It's been eleven weeks since flip for her and the clones. Accounting for the Stretch period this puts us right on track for a 9 week flowering time. The clones have also got significant amber trichomes up top, and some in the lowers. This weekend or maybe earlier they will meet the snippers. I'm running on empty when I comes to my stash, I was heavily relying on Jawsephine to get me to the next harvest. It's going to be close
I won't be able to cure one of these for long before consuming, but there others will get the presidential treatment. Explosia a few weeks behind, is making her statement by way aroma. I smell her wafting stench before the others can hit my nose. A full flavoured smoke I bet, this is going to cure the longest once she gets to her harvest date. Anticipated harvest time of about 2 more weeks and about one week till flush.
so happy you could stop in for the visit, do come again...

cheers
