Locrian99s 2nd grow

[Locrian99]

I veged for longer so I just kind of ignore the first four weeks when I say week 5 nutes.

[Locrian99]

Week 5 of 12/12 nutes chef

[Chefbjy]

I didn't realize we are on the same week of nutes. Don't have budlets like you though. Maybe just a clone thing or a longer flowering strain lol.

[RosettaStoned]

I'm torn every time I'm trying to defol/prune. I'll stand there for 10-20 minutes and not do anything, just stare and go back and forth. Maybe if I just stab the shears into my eye I'll stop thinking about it

[Chefbjy]

Tent is filling out nicely. They look great.

I agree why waste nutes ,I have gone from watering to runoff,then to just giving enough water to last 3 days now I pre mix coco with calimagic and leave it wet, I have been watering either every day or every 2nd day no runoff my point is it all works lol

[Locrian99]

I would assume the shorter more compact would have more of an Indica leaning and be a shorter flowering time. I am just kind of guessing though. Yea the way they did the write up kind of annoyed me

[Campesino]

Yeah, I just wish they provided some clues to identify. Like if it is short and compact does that mean it is a longer or shorter flower period.
Jack Herrer is a great strain to smoke, so I really don't mind. In my case, she'll be ready at some point between the Power Africa Fast, which is 6-7 weeks, and the Shining Silver Hazes, which I expect to take about 11.

[Locrian99]

I’m very happy with how they are doing, and it may just be the plant but the WW1 which I think I took a little more off of is the only one really looking like the branches are just covered with budsites. I might be expecting too much lol.

[Locrian99]

The Girl Scout crack and super lemon haze freebies I received I’m really interested in growing. Particularly the haze strain. Now I see nirvana put out a tangie I’ll probably pick some of those up along with their original glue strain (gg4) for my next photo run. And little tent will be autos, probably at least 6 months until I can do another indoor grow though. Depending on if we build or buy after selling.

[Locrian99]

Yea I’m really curious on which pheno these end up being. I hope for my friends they are the shorter flowering time pheno was outdoors here a late sept harvest time is going to be best. The huge variance Seedsman mentions in the phenotypes is one of the reasons I am giving these freebies away.

[Campesino]

I completely agree with your watering strategy. Try to bring them up to saturation, but no need for run-off with nute waterings. This is less wasteful, reduces humidity, and accommodates laziness

[Locrian99]

Well I decided to water them tonight, after scoping them out and lifting all the pots they needed it. GSC2 is the smallest of the bunch and she was the one I was lifting. The others were ready. So week 5 nutes at 100% + silica and cal mag. 6.3 Ph. I watered a little differently tonight. Normally I give them about 1.5 gallons and get about 10-15% runoff. Tonight I gave them all about a gallon with no runoff (I got a little from GSC2). I decided to try this to put less moisture in the tent and a little out of laziness so I didn’t have to mix up a second batch of nutes. Plain water days I’ll continue to runoff. Last watering of grow big.

[Campesino]

I think the defol was just about perfect. Looking very healthy and strong!

[Locrian99]

9 am the big tent starts it’s 35th 12 hours darkness. I kind of think I should’ve gone a bit more aggressive in their week 3 defol than I did. I can’t even imagine had I not done any. No issues to report they are just chugging along. They will get a feed tomorrow night. Gsc2’s pistils are turning, not seeing this on any other plant and it’s seems early to me. The babies were put in a mix of happy frog ocean forest and perlite in solo cups. And I started two more for another friend. Great use of freebies I wasn’t all that interested in growing.
