Jack Herer Auto x2 Strawberry Banana x2 Gelato x1

[PhantomSulker]

Everyone is doing great! I fed all 7 girls last night and got good runoff on everyone. PH 6 in and 6.2 - 6.5 out. Full nutes for everyone last night! Took 10 gallons of water to feed everyone.

Jack 1 is budding well even with the light burn, Jack 2 is doing great and just keeps getting bigger and some pre-flowers are formed.

Strawberry Banana and Gelato got a nice trim while getting fed. They did not grow much but maybe they will get a bit taller but everyone is about the same height in the flower tent so good light coverage.

Not much to do at this point with them.

The light burn on the Jack 1 plant is pretty bad and some of the leaves are drying up. I pulled those off yesterday. The Jack 2 with no training just keeps getting bigger and that is fine there is plenty of room and light for them. Sunday I may be moving a few other autos in this room. But the buds are starting to really form on Jack 1 and Jack 2 is starting to flower Jack 2 is 2 weeks behind Jack 1.

[PhantomSulker]

Nothing new going on with these three. They are forming nice and filling in well from last defloration. Just keep doing some bending on the branches. No bud sites developing yet they are growing well otherwise.

The girls were pretty dry last night so along with a lot of other things I did last night I fed, deflowered and LST the Strawberry Banana and Gelato, I used plain PH 5.8 &5.9 (2 - 2 Gallon Watering Cans) to a good bit of run off and while I was trimming and rearranging everything let them drain.

I harvested 3 of my first grow plants and then moved the Strawberry Banana and Gelato into the flower tent and lowered the light to about 24 inches above the Strawberry Banana, the Gelato is about 3 or 4 inches taller and the 2 clones in the flower tent are about 4 inches above the Gelato. I figured I would try that and see, they are getting switched from a 1500W Led to a 600W HPS, but that did not do anything I noticed last time I moved some plants.

I then watered the 2 Jack Herer and moved them to the Veg Room (on 12/12 now) and raised the light a whole bunch for the 2 of them. I was watching the time lapse last night and the Jack 2 grew a good bit last night. Look forward to seeing her growth at lunch today.

Well last night before bed I took the girls out for a drink and then i violated them and stripped them down bear. Too bad it was just my plants, I have been a bit lonely lately. The inner structure of the plants look great, I will definitely be doing some additional LST to get them a bit more spread out. There is one branch on a strawberry banana that I must have accidentally messed with the top of the cola because it has all kinds of wild growth like when something has been FIMED, but they are doing great.

No photo updates on Jack 1 & 2 but they are doing great and Jack 1 has a ton of flower forming and the Jack 2 that has had no training is developing flowers now, Jack 1 is 2 weeks ahead of Jack 2.

[PhantomSulker]

Not much to update the Strawberry Banana girls are both doing great and the Gelato. I have pulled a few leaves and keep tucking, but it is about time for some defloration and LST again to get them manageable. I was going to wait till Sunday, but likely will start tomorrow. I may do a SCROG on them they all are so wide and ready to start building buds!

The Jack 1 is doing great so many bud sites, The Jack 2 is growing great as well and just been tucking leaves back a little on her. While I won't track directly the Jack 3 in this journal I am gong to try quadlining the last Jack Herer I have so then I can compare the 3 yields from 3 different training. I am a little worried that this plant may be to fragile to quadline but he I will give it a try.

Fed everyone in both rooms 9 plants, last night I mixed up about 12 gallons of water. I was getting tired of PH'ing water all night! I figured out something I changed in my process that I was not doing originaly and wonder if this was the issue that made my 1st plant so sick looking. I was PH'ing the water before I added nutes and Molasses. I don't recall when I started checking after nutes but it was not too long ago. With my MaxiBloom the PH would not change but I have noticed that after mixing the flowering water with MaxiBloom, KoolBloom and Molasses the PH drops to 4.0 or something around there and I have to use PH up. My water ranges from 8 to 9 ph from the tap and I almost always have to use down and hardly ever used PHUP untill I started checking after mixing nutes. Not sure but I think it is the molasses? Anyone have any thoughts on that?

The 2 Strawberry Banana and 1 Gelato got fed to run off and were bone dry. They are really putting on a lot of growth since I flipped to 12/12 and lower the light a lot about 25" now was probably 35 or so away to get enough light coverage when there were 6 plants in the veg room. Fed them with 1/4 strength MaxiGrow and 1/2 strength MaxiBloom and a tablespoon of Molasses. I forgot to get a picture of the Gelato last night.

The Jack 1 has just a ton of bud sites and several branches that will be good colas hopefully! The Jack 2 is growing like crazy and I have been able to resist doing any training on her. Just been tucking some of the huge fan leaves. One guy at work said she will look like a porn star from the 70's bush when she is all grown up. Thought that was kind of funny.

Had a lot going on with 4/20 got home from work around 3:30 and worked on stuff untill 2am, I made 125 Cana Coconut Oil caps, 2 boxes of cookies from the Cana Butter I made from my first grow trim. Setup my other 2x4x4 tent to use for veg while the veg room is used for flower untill I get some plants finished in the flower tent. I am crowded right now in the flower tent.

The flip happened yesterday the girls in the veg room flipped to flower yesterday. I moved the poinsettia plant to the 2x4x4 tent along with 2 more auto's I will start a new grow journal for them. But the 2 Strawberry Banana and 1 Gelato that have had 9 weeks of heavy quadlining and training are ready to go. I lowered the light to about 20 inches and the 3 of them are getting the full 1500W intensity. The only thing I did not get done was a exhaust vent out, so it will have a little high humidity I am going to try to finish that tonight.

The Jack Herer 1 is just hanging around and growing so many bud sites it is crazy. The Jack 2 got moved to the flower room Saturday as well. Still have not done any training to her other than tucking some leaves back.

Hello everyone Happy 4/20!

The girls in the veg room are going great and will flip to 12/12 tomorrow. I have to get some exhaust system in place today to get the humidity in the room down. I think I am going to try to run a exhaust vent into my flower tent with 2 duct fans pulling air from the other room. I did some tucking, bending and pulled a few leaves to keep them growing. I can't wait to see the stretch on them. I will get some pictures of them this weekend.

I fed the Jack Herer 1 in the flower tent and broke a branch over it did not snap so a bit of super cropping is happening on this plant I meant to bend the main cola, but not the other branch so we will see what happens. I have determined that this strain is not a good one for training, the branches seem to snap or break easily. The Jack Herer 2 in the veg room will get moved out to the flower tent as soon as I get the rest of my first grow plant down. I still have not cut or bent this girl, I did tuck some big fan leaves down but have not taken anything off her.

I have 2 seedlings going as well a G13 Auto and last Jack Herer Auto going as well, I will get 2 - 3gal pots ready for them and I put a Fast Buds Mexican Airline in a paper towel last night. I got my Fast Buds from Neptune Seeds and I got 3 mystery seeds call Supertron from Humboldt Seed Organization. I searched the internet for any information on this strain and just found photos and such of others posting pictures but I could not find any information on the strain. They are reg seeds, so it will be a while till I grow that, I have 13 more Autos right now I will finish before I do any more photos. But I think I will give them a try with some seeds I had from a bag of Wild Animal Cookies those should be reg seeds as well. Too much the grow and not enough time....

I still have to get the 2x4x4 tent setup I have a lot of stuff to do today as well as make some cana coconut oil and caps, bake cookies and brownies in preparation for going out tonight our local bar is holding a 4/20 party tonight and plan to go out for first night out since breaking up with Ex.

Well again happy 4/20 everyone and have a great Easter!

Jack 1 got a good feeding last night she is showing signs of flowers now. I pulled a few fan leaves blocking light to lower bud sites.

The Strawberry Banana's are looking good, the Gelato is growing perfectly the way I have trained her, and Jack 2 is growing very nicely (I still have not done any training). Other than my first grow plant taking forever, everything is going well. I have some slight nute burn on a few leaves, but will just give water at next feeding. Been trying to keep them fed well, but I am surely overdue for some plain PH'd water for the girls in the veg room.

I have to get my exhaust built in the room soon. I plan to flip this room to 12/12 on Sunday and the humidity is around 75% all the time with the room closed up. I have everything to do it, just need the energy and time. The high humidity has been ok for veg, but with 4 more plants no way I can get the in the flower tent, maybe the other Jack Herer since she will get taller than the Photos, I can also move something from the flower tent to the other room. I also still need to get the new veg tent and light up. My other two Auto's are sprouting and have leaves.

All could not really be much better for all these plants in this Journal. The Jack 1 in the flower tent is still hanging around I lowered her a few inches to get the top of to main cola lower, it was getting a bit of light burn. I really like being able to lower the plant vs messing with the light. The Jack 2 in the veg room is growing great and I still have not touched her. I am still planning to do nothing but let her grow. In addition I popped 2 more autos, Jack 3 my last Jack Herer Auto and a new strain I got from seedking.com G13, it looked good and going to try a few of those for a while and then I also have some Fast Buds Mexican Airline Autos on the way. I am going to start a new Journal for my new Auto's that I plan to run for a while untill I get a nice stock pile of various strains.

I should have my 2x4x4 tent setup with my new 300 watt COBB light in the next few days. I still have to pack some more of the Ex's stuff to clear the area that tent will go. I am also going to have to get a vent going in the veg room the humidity is way to high for flower in that room. The temp and humidity are both around 72% daily.

Well I cleaned up the veg room the two clones I was growing were getting big, so instead of waiting I moved them into flower tent last night. This leaves the 2 Strawberry Banana, 1 Gelato, 1 Jack Herer Auto and my poinsettia in the veg room for now. My flower tent is full for now so I am going to keep training the 3 photos untill Easter Sunday and then flip the veg room to 12/12. I ordered a CANAGROW 300W COB LED light to put in my 2x2x4 tent I am not using right now that I will start my new plants in this tent while the photos grow out in the other room. In addition I did start my last Jack Auto seed last night hopefully it will pop and get another Auto going this weekend. The G13 Auto's I ordered should be here this week and can get one of them going as well and then as other plants come down will pop new ones.

The 3 photos will end up with 9 weeks of veg time with HST Quad-Lining

Nice idea - hanging the pots, so you can lower them away from the light

👍

[PhantomSulker]

Jack 1 is growing great in the flower room, I deflowered her again to expose more bud sites and then hung her with 2 ratchet straps similar to how the 2 clones are hung. This will let me to lower the plant instead of trying to raise it. I have the light at the top of the tent for my first grow plant still flowering. Not sure if I can hang a 5 gal pot but 3 gal seems to be fine. Look forward to seeing the growth when I go home today.

[PhantomSulker]

Well had some time last night, or so I thought because I meant to be in bed by 10, and when I finished I looked at the clock and it was 11:40 and I am going to be dragging all day at work....

Anyway, I did what I think should be the last major HST / Defloration last night. I cut pretty much every leaf off each of the Strawberry Banana and Gelato and then massaged the branches and worked them back out straight and tied them down. From this point I am ready to let them recover and if ready I may flip the whole operation to flower for a while till I can get everything in one tent. Using the quad-lining tutorial I have built a good structure for many cola's to grow. The only thing I will do is remove fan leaves blocking light and weak bud sites.

The Jack Herer is doing well in the flower tent and is growing like crazy. Gave her a good feeding along with the other girls in the flower tent. The Jack Herer 2 which is 2 weeks behind Jack 1 is growing and I am going to do my best to do nothing to her but let her grow.
