    Grow Diary Kinda Thing

    I’ve been missing my daily care for my girls so I’ve decided to start another grow. https://imgur.com/a/Y9cZpAz
    Started with 3x RQS fat banana photos left from last purchase. I lost one as it started growing in on it’s self and I was too late to save it. I also have a couple of bag seed from my last grow (either fb or critical). Everything is being grown in 2/3 coco 1/3 perlite with clay pebbles for drainage. Big pots are 3gal fabric. Light is a variable HPS, currently on reduced 250w for seedling/veg stage. Humidifier on 24/7 at max output during seedling and veg stage (currently around 55% but will get it to 70% + with some mods). Extraction has been upgraded this week to a 6” fan and filter (may have to reinstall my old 4” during this stage as it’s sucking out all my humid air too fast!). Feeding them on Cana coco A/B at half strength but will increase to full once they get a bit bigger. Cal mag added at every feed. I intend to top all plants and train or manifold them to increase yields.

    Was your critical from RqS too? I have that strain and I’m very disappointed with it. Want to hear about your experience

      Btw the legendary punch is the best smelling strain I’ve ever grown and I usually run cookie crosses

      Yeah rqs. Tbh the results on it were phenomenal, biggest and most dense buds I’ve ever seen. Vg to smoke as well. What were your issues with it? I’ll check out those stinky buds you mention below too!

      Looks like at least one of my bag seeds is a mutant so it’ll be interesting to see how it grows.

        Starting to notice a difference in size now. The plants in the 3gal pots are getting topped tomorrow. All 6 new bag seed (solos) have sprouted and starting to show first set of leaves. Still feeding them half strength nutes. Will increase once they start to get a bit bigger and hungrier.

          The big girls were all topped a few days ago and seem to be fine. Ended up potting on the solos into larger pots too. Upped the light to 400w since they’re getting bigger. Now feeding at full strength every other feed, inc the smaller plants.

            For some weird reason these pics go sideways no matter what orientation so soz for the sore neck.
            Tent is now starting to have a nice smell when I open it so now the fun starts to begin. Girls are thriving after being topped. One may have been fim’d. Some LST done and a bit of defol removing only huge fans. As you’ll see the mutant plant is continuing to grow in a strange way but I’m leaving it for now. I also realised all the smaller bag seed additions are being grown in soil/compost/perlite mix that is normally use for the garden so I’m gonna need to start making 2 batches of feed now. Not a fan of growing weed in soil but may just leave them instead of transplanting again

                Heavy defol done to get them ready for flipping. Small pots will be what they’ll be. Can’t leave the big ones much longer or the tent will be bursting once they flower

                Just because people are over 50 doesn’t mean they know everything.
                You can teach a old dog new tricks - But it will still think the old ways are the “best” lol

                  Nice. Just wait till they flower. The buds are super sticky and packed with resin!

                  I redesigned my draining racks that the plants sit on to improve on the cramped tent. Each plant now has its own tray that I can move around.

                      I have a 100% success rate on the bag seeds, all females. All plants are now showing early signs of budlets. I’m hoping all the seeds I have are fem as I have a ton of them in my fridge! One final defol to be done in approx a week.

                        You’ll find a hermie here and there overtime but in my experience 99% turn out fine females if you don’t mess them up. I know strains are different but that’s just very common. i Don’t know what I would do without my homemade fem
