I think she'll give me at least 2 oz if not a little bit more It's not a total loss definitely could have been a lot more definitely could have been better but it's all right there's definitely going to be plenty to go around.
I also ordered some Grove bags. Because after I drive his purple punch I don't want to have to burp it every single day for a week I'm so over it already I want to focus on the other plants so I figure I'll use the Grove bags for it. I'll get it nice and dry do my trimming put it in the grove bags and forget about it for a month.

Last one. I think it needs like a week maybe. Maybe 5 days. It's going to fall right in line with 84 days from sproutAttached FilesLeave a comment:

One picture that the site will let me upload. I have to reduce the size of the others. It's great having a 200mp camera on my phone but sucks because you can't post a 200mp picture anywhere πAttached FilesLeave a comment:

Big weed family!! I swear they just multiply and I don't even realize where they came from lololol. Health has been sad over the place so I haven't posted much but I've been trying to keep busy.
from left to right
The purple punch stopped getting worse once I got the proper amount of Cal mag in there that didn't have nitrogen in it. But by then the best growing days were behind her. She does smell really good. Definitely like a fruit punch with a hint of sour grapes. She frosted up really well. It's taking forever for the trichomes to get milky. I see that some are but most are still clear. I don't see any amber yet besides on some sugar leaves. Just watering her with plain old 6.5 ph'd water. I'll post a few pics of the trichomes you tell me.
Next is there Blue Dream by fast buds and next to her is the tangie from fast buds. In from in another blue dream from the first attempt. She just started flowering nicely so I've just been squeezing her in wherever I got space. I just feel guilty throwing her out and she had nice flower structure. I'll see where it goes. The other 2 in the square buckets are just 8 days into bloom they have nice flower structure already. Maybe they'll yield something yet. The way they described the size of these plants, I had my SCRoG screens ready to go thinking they're were going to be super stretchy like the gorilla glue is. But no they did spider out a bit but nothing a few twist ties can't manage. As soon as the purple punch finishes then it won't be so cramped and everyone can have their own light.
Next is my father's plant. Boy oh boy is she a little unicorn. She's only a month into bloom. Just gave her a top dress. Last one was 3 weeks ago and she's getting these weird splotches. She might need another feeding with the way she's stacking flowers. She's a photo so I'm I wasn't shy with the feeding either. I still don't know what shr is. She smells like sour D I wanna say but I'm not 100% sure. Very fuely kind of smell to it with maybe a hint of citrus or like funky gas. But man she's looking like a nice pyramid. A weedramid π€£ got the little weed slaves building up the pyramid shaped flowers on her step by step. My dad chopped his plant down and gave it to his friend as a gift π€£π€£π€£ the whole thing was just straight seeds. I'm sure his friend was like..... Yeah thanks and then tossed it in the trash when my dad left.
But before he gave it away I got a good smell and I could swear it's sour d I'm hoping because that would be a nice surprise
ββββββNext we have the Earth Box. I keep trying to do living soil in 5 gallon buckets with limited success. With the living soil, more soil equals easier grow with better results. For the whole ecosystem to work the way it should you need a lot of soil for the buffer and the mycorrhize to grow and other bacteria to flourish. I built my own soil with 1/3 spagnum moss, 1/3 perlite, 1/3 earth worm casting/ compost then I added a bunch of ag lime, gypsum, oyster shell, basalt, glacial rock dust, azomite, kelp meal, crab meal, alfalfa, insect frass, humic acid, neem seed meal, Bio char. I let that all cook for 2 weeks and then I planted on the left UG (End game x grandpa's stash from Ethos Genetics) and on the right is a Mandarin Zkittlez R1 from Ethos Genetics. Both are feminized photos. I'm positive I'm gonna have to scrog these they're going to get massive. They're only 17 days old. I put them in the earth box 3 days ago and they have almost doubled since then
Then last but not least is the baby. Everyone in my family including me is in pain all the time so I figured let me grow a CBD heavy variety. This one is White Widow CBD with a THC to CBD ratio of 1:1 I can extract her and make some balm for achy joints and muscles as well as edibles with good levels of CBD. Of it works out well then I'll definitely start doing one grow with CBD heavy plants and one with THC heavy.
βββββββSo far so good. I hope the earth box makes this whole process water only with only one top dress then I'll be in heaven.Attached FilesLeave a comment:

I bought a bag of the mosquito bits. It's got the same bacillus as the soil revival but in larger amounts. This should work but I avoided it because it usually has lots of tric spores and grows this green mold. For plants idc but I grow mushrooms in the same room and I don't want to have even more reason for contamination. I don't want to have to run the air purifier in there but if I must then I must -
The over watering wouldn't be an issue If I didn't have all these stupid holes drilled into my buckets which means literally anywhere where there's wet dirt and a hole that they could get into they've been breeding in so what was a good idea to get oxygen to the roots wasn't a good idea because it's pretty much like cliffside apartments with a front porch and a view for all the bugs lololol -
I thought they eat fungus and reproduce in dead organic matter but either way they're on their way out. They were a problem 2 weeks ago but I did put some of the bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis in the soil. They should be taking care of the larvae and eggs while I get rid of the rest of the adults.
Now I'm just more annoyed about possibly phosphorus deficiency -
My understanding is they only eat dead organic material. They won't eat the plant above ground and only eat roots by mistake that are very close to the surface so can be damaging for early life cycle plants. -
It's getting better. They're not attacking the plant.... They're just in the soil so I'm spraying the buckets with neem and the soil with rosemary/peppermint and making stinging nettle tea but that's not my issue rn -
It's probably too late in the plants life cycle for them to do any damage to the plant.
They can eat the top roots just under the soil but it's not their preferred diet.
My last grow they just died off naturally when I stopped overwatering. -
Mosquito bits or AquaBac watered in should take care of the problem.

And that's the fresh traps. Don't buy shit castings π€·ββοΈ -
Another week down! Around day 17 of bloom. She's got some really nice big flowers for such a young age. She's also starting to smell.... Purple.... If that makes any sense.The purple punch is looking magnificent minus the leaf spotting but I think I'm not watering frequently enough. She's goes through a gallon of water every 2 days. So instead of watering every 2 days, I've just been giving her about 2L of water daily. Keep things wet and keep things fresh. So far so good with the Coco. Nothing out of the ordinary happening.
Still dealing with fungus gnats but say least I know where they came from.... The shitty earthworm castings I got on Amazon. Loaded with fungus gnats. Everytime I use them, I get a whole new infestation. So I'm just gonna use them in the yard. Now to just get rid of the ones I currently have. Such an annoying pest.
The Tangie and Blue Dream are FINALLY in the big buckets...... Only a month late.... They should be going into bloom soon and instead they're just 10 days old. Starting to see some faster growth. The Tangie has some weird looking spots on the first leaves but the first true leaves don't have any spots. I think it may have been a bit dry and warm maybe that's why the spots showed up. The blue dream is fantastic! Shit even the 3 in 1 plants are finally coming to some kind of life.
Really excited about these. I wish the first round worked out better but it didn't. Can't wait to have some Blue dream.
I also trimmed up the Bruce banner!!! 1b gave me 69g and 2b gave me 60g. Total of 4.5 ounces for the 2 plants..... Not a lot of weight but man they look frosty and smell AMAZING!! I can't wait to smoke some.
Lastly my father's plant is coming along. I expected some kind of pre bloom stretch but she didn't really do much. I see flowers forming and new leaves growing but it hasn't stretched much. Either way, she looks much better than she did in August.
I also been messing with the CO2 meter. In my grow it will go down to the 400s if I don't go in there for 2 days. But when I go in there for a few hours to water or clean or just to chill, the ppm can raise up to and over 2000ppm. If I go to the room 2xa day for an hour then I can keep the CO2 in the 700-1000ppm range. So it's kinda cool that I'm doing CO2 supplementation without even trying to so I just have to make sure I got everything else locked in so I can get the benefits of CO2 supplementation
That's all for now. Happy Growing!
