SOIL Grow Journal - Bruce Banger & Grandaddy Kush

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Started the switch to flower today. Looking forward to seeing these beauties bloom. Everything looks very good. Going to give them some water tonight and I'll report back next week.

I've used this set up in the past with very good results, but yes, watering can be a bit of a pain. However, It's been quite manageable so far, and I think it will be easier once I thin out the foliage that's in shadow.
 
WEEKLY UPDATE:

I was a little worried about getting a male with the GDK being bag seed, but she is finally showing her pistils. Photo is pre-SCROG tuck. Both plants have been pruned but I intend to thin it out a bit more before the stretch is over.

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 2 of bloom, pistils are showing up. Pretty happy with how everything is going. I will be starting to let the bud sites pop up through the screen now. I'm still a bit nervous about thinning the canopy out a bit more. If anyone has any suggestions on how much to remove and where, I'd really appreciate it.

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 3 of bloom. Everything looks good on the GDK but I'm a bit worried by how close the buds are to the screen for the BB. They just didn't seem to go into the bloom stretch all that much.

I see what you mean. Apparently the version of the Scrog I am using isn't even made anymore, and its probably for this very reason. I've had this set up for a few grows and all have come out well but the little Bruce Banger here just is getting shadowed by the screen. It is what it is at this point.
 
WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 4 of bloom. Things with the GDK are looking good and the buds are starting to fill out nicely. Both plants appear to be done with their stretch, which is unfortunate for the BB, but we'll see what happens once we get to the finish line.

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 5 of bloom. Things are looking real good on the GDK, the BB is a bit of a runt, but it has improved. I don't think I'll be yielding a lot from that plant but that's fine

I've been giving them pH'd water with CalMag only at this point. I want to see exactly how well the Michigan Mix will do on its own, but if I absolutely need to add nutrients I will.

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 6 of bloom. The Bruce Banger is fattening up nicely, and much more of GDK pistils are changing color. I'm noticing some spots and discoloration on the leaves from both plants. Not sure exactly if its because the plants are getting close to the end of their life cycle or if it's a deficiency/light burn.

Until next week,
take care

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 7 of bloom, getting close to the finish line for the GDK I think. The Bruce Banger's leaves are getting awfully crispy. GDK is looking (and smelling) amazing. I can't get over the rich almost artificial grape/berry smell coming from these buds, its potent. So far all I've been giving them is distilled water and that's it.

WEEKLY UPDATE:

Week 8 of bloom, things are still looking real good. The BB is getting crispier, I'm not sure if I should flush it and follow up with nutrients or what. Aside from the crisping leaves, the BB are getting plump and sticky. The GDK is getting close to harvest time, although the trichomes aren't there just yet.
