Alien OG, OG Kush, Rosetta Stone and Mota Hari

[johnehazeharvester]

4 feminized strains, 1 closet, 2 200 watt LED

This will be my second grow.
I still have 3 Auto Amnesia Haze plants in the grow room. Should have 1-2 weeks before chopping.

The room is a converted closet in the garage.
The room is 8x4, but has shelves on the far end and door opens in.
Growing space is about 4x4. I have extra room behind door where I keep supplies like water, ph and ppm gauges and ph down (phosphoric acid)
I used double reflective insulation and stapled to walls.

I have one fan I screwed to wall above canopy.
I use an electric radiant heater.
I use an inexpensive humidifier which hold one gallon.
I set up an exhaust fan with a carbon filter, bought on Amazon 4 inch and 195 cfm.
I drilled a hole in the floor which leads to basement for return air.
I screwed hooks into the wall which I hang water bags from. I will occasionally use these if I have to travel.

1/17/23 7 pm, I put an OG Kush and Alien OG from Seed Supreme and a Rosetta Stone and Mota Hari from Brothers Grimm and shot glasses with natural local spring water with ppm of 45 and a pH of approximately 7.

!/19/23 6 AM the Alien OG, Rosetta Stone and Mota Hari popped and I planted.
10 hours later the OG Kush popped.
I was nervous about the OG Kush because there were some reviews that mentioned none of the seeds popped. OG Kush was a free seed.
These are all feminized photo period Seeds.
My first batch were all Auto’s.

I mixed perlite with Vigoro soil from Home Depot for the seedling. I put these in small Peat seedling pots.
I will water with spring water with ppm of around 45 and And PH’d down to 5.9.
I am using a spray bottle but moistened soil 12 hours prior to planting. Hopefully it’s not too moist.

They are in a seedling dome and I will keep humidity above 85% and temperature at least 78 or 80F.

I just got three bags of ocean green Foxfarm soil I plan on mixing with some perlite and will make a super soil with nature’s living soil in the bottom of a 5 gallon fiber pot this weekend. That should let it cook a few weeks before the seedlings are ready to be transplanted.

During early veg, I will probably start using well water again which has ppm of about 140 and a pH of 8.3. I will pH it down with phosphoric acid. Probably will supplement with Foxfarm nutrients, as I have much left over after my first grow.

All 4 seeds popped. Somehow I planted Mota Hari and Rosetta Stone in one pot. I carefully transplanted one seedling to a new pot. The tap root was slightly longer than the stem you see. Luckily these are both derived from Brother's Grimm and came from crosses of Jack Herer. Next time I grow I will be more careful. All seeds sprouted the free OG cush is a bit behind but should do okay.

1/21/23 made soil mix For soil mix
•
• one bag of Vigaro potting soil in bottom 1/3 of 5 gallon grow bag mixed with
○ Tbsp of gypsum( Calcium Sulfate Dihydrate - Gypsum - CaSO4*2H2O
○ Tbsp Mycorrhizal fungus (Myco Bliss - Mycorrhizal Fungi Inoculant for Plants - Concentrated Fertilizer and Organic Root Enhancer for Healthy Plant Yield and Water Retention in Soil )
○ 16 oz Super soil concentrate (Super Soil Autoflower Concentrate/Visit the Nature's Living Soil Store
○ 25% of volume mixed with perlite
• three bags of 12 qt ocean green fox farm in potting soil on top 2/3 of 5 gallon grow bag( added to 4 grow bags)

1/21/23 seeds planted. Lights were on a 24 hour cycle. That is how I started auto's. But I think 18/6 is better. Had to get another timer set up.

1/24/23 change light cycle to 18/6.

notes: these feminized seeds popped twice as fast as last auto run I did with paper towels. Thees were popped in a shot glass with ph 7 spring water.

These are also growing about twice as fast. I am now ph'ing water to 5.9

They are more leggy with much more stretching than last run. Not sure why. They are fairly close to the light and grown in a seedling dome with cfl light. Maybe 24 hour lighting initially. The initial planting was done in soil which I think was more moist than my first run. Maybe different genetics as first run was Amnesia Haze Auto

1/28/23 transferred to grow room with no dome. Plants fell. Straightened out and used tooth pick for support rosetta stone

1/29/23 1 gallon pots prepared
1 tbsp gypsum/ 1 tsp epson salt/ perlite to 4 gallons and then partiioned
Watered pots with molasses
1/29/23 foliar spray with .1 ml rev( humic acid)
1/31/2023 Foliar spray yesterday and today

2/1/2023 ordered Azomite rock dust 10 lbs, kelp, alfalfa, neem seed
Bought pine mulch medium size
Bone meal

2/1/2023
Added 1 tsp bone meal, 1 tsp Epson salt and 1 more tbsp gypsum to each 5 gallon pot
decided to just go straight to 5 gal instead of 1 gallon. had barely enough room.

Transplanted seedlings into 5 gallon pots.
I took about 2/3 gallon out of pot first.

Used mycorrhizal fungi 1/2 tsp

Alien OG very wet- peat pot absorbed water from tray

After transplant I covered about 1 inch of stem due to leggy appearance of all seedlings.
Rosetta stone showed signs of overwater after transplant. One hour later she was praying to the light

Humidity is lower than I want 40-50%
Temp day 76-80 night 68-74
Humidity down to 37%
Turned humidifier on high yesterday and added another one near seedlings

Outside temp is 15°F. Electric heater probably on a lot drying out air

Og kush PPFD 260
Rosetta Stone 295
Mota Hara 227
Alien OG 287

 

[johnehazeharvester]

Sprayed with organic rev( has some humic acid) 2ml in 6oz spray bottle
Water about 2-3 tbsp

2/6/23.
Added 1/8 tsp aloe vera to foliar spray and watering
Top dress 2 tbsp azomite in each 5 gallon bucket
Ppfd 480-600
Temp 76
RH 54%

2/7/2023 I noticed new growth slightly green

Topped dressed with alfalfa meal 1 tbsp each pot. Watered w ppm 375 1 ml grow big and 2 ml big bloom in 1.5 liters and watered 250 ml each plant
Mixed water with .3 mL of cal mag 4 – 0–0 and quarter teaspoon of aloe vera for watering pH 6.03. mixed about a liter
2/8 leaves look somewhat droopy. Plants seem overwatered since yesterday will not water today. they look better by around 2 PM this morning they looked OK too maybe as the heat increased, they started dripping more. temperature about 78 and relative humidity 46%
PH of foliar spray, 6.4.
Aloe vera seems to precipitate out at the bottom of my watering so I will not add to foliar spray will use 1/8 tsp in future
Top dress 1 tbsp dr earth home grow and 1 tbsp kelp meal

2/9. Added 2 ml of rev to 1 liter which will be used to water over next week

top dressed with one tablespoon of humic acid. Also added 5 ml of organic rev to watering solution and a small amount of molasses

Just ordered GSC. Not sure when I'm going to pop all the seeds I keep buying. I think I have an addiction

2/13/2023 lowered lights ppfd 500-600
Alien OG droopy
Foliar spray
Sarah watered while I was away.
Soil mid to level moist
Will check later probably water tomorrow
Added 1/8 tsp K+Silicate to water
2/14 Add tsp worm castings to gallon bottle of water
Add 1 ml cal mag to 1/2 gallon
Added 1” of used soil w a 1/4 cup worm castings & tsp bone meal to each pot.
2/15 after feeding with earthworm casting tea and top dressing with earth worm castings, the plants responded well and we're praying to the light.
2/19 topped all plants today
mixed 1 ml Cal mag, half teaspoon grow big, tablespoon of big bloom, eighth teaspoon of potassium silicate, quarter teaspoon aloe vera in gallon of water
2/20 top dressed 2 tablespoons of Dr. Earth homegrown and watered with 250 ml of fish tank water
2/21 Rosetta Stone was thirsty. I gave it 300 mL of nutrient mix made 2/19. Some minimal top fluid to other plants, but did not really water. Trying to keep top a bit moist as they s is mostly organic run. Each one got maybe 10 to 15 cc's.
Slight upward curling Rosetta stone. Probably light and heat stress.
deceased light to 560 PPFD. switched positions with og kush. RS was closest to electric radiator. Alien OG showed similar symptoms 1 week ago.
Rh 60% temp 78-82 day 68-70 night

 

[johnehazeharvester]

Just did some LST as well.

 

[johnehazeharvester]

2/22 am water and fed alien OG

More LST



2/24 Am. Plants droopy at 6am ? Because lights just came on or stress from training. Growth has noticeably slowed . Likely need to recover

Temp 82 RH 68

2/24 pm temp 84 Rh 70

watered Rosetta Stone. It was the only one really thirsty. I gave the other ones just a little bit of top watering used fish tank water without nutrients. Not sure why RS wants more water it is not bigger.

2/25 AM plants look healthy. Still stunted from training

New growth slightly lighter green.



A few purple stems near top of Rosetta Stone

2/24
watered all plants with half fish, water and half low nutrient solution? I mixed up a few days ago. Rosetta Stone still seem pretty thirsty for some reason. I am wondering about the soil not holding the water for her but she looks healthy. OG Kush needs the least water
pH.
Water for mota hari and alien OG at 6.5 and for Rosetta Stone and OG Kush at 6.6.
gave all plants about 250cc and mota Hari about 150 cc's
Plants droopy 10 am look overwatered
2/27 watered all but MOTA HARI not too thirsty
2/28 Rosetta stone thirsty got chicken manure tea
3/1 am MOTA hari and Alien OG hot chicken manure tea og kush not thirsty
3/2 all drank EWC tea other than OG kush
3/4 top dressed with one tablespoon Dr. Earth homegrown, one tablespoon of crab mail, one tablespoon of kelp, 1 tablespoon of alfalfa, one tablespoon of gypsum and a half tablespoon of chicken manure
3/4 Watered them all with pH. 6.3 @10 am. They were droopy. By 2:00 p.m. They started praying. I hope I did not overdo it with the fertilizer, but I figure this is all organic so I probably won't get a nutrient lock out right now. I guess we will see.
I had a little scare that maybe I had white powdery mildew but I think it is from my foliar spray. It is on old growth where I used to follow your spray a lot and new growth is completely unaffected. The back of leaves also look good.
Relative humidity today was 66% which I think is still okay temperature is 78

Plants are mostly doing well. The Rosetta Stone has a bit of nutrient burn on the tips. It got more feeds than others as it was thirstier. A few of the bottom leaves have chlorosis on 3/4 of the plants I'm not sure if it is related to them touching mulch or getting some tea poured directly on them or there is a nutrient deficiency. Got home late last night and all of the plants were droopy and really needed to be watered. They perked up in about 20 minutes

So what's happened to this grow? Any updates??

Yield
Rosetta Stone 130 g 16 seeds
Mota Hari 103 g 110 seeds
OG Kush 97 g 60 seeds
Alien OG 80 g 32 seeds
I selectively pollinated lower branches of my last grow.
I used a tall Pineapple Express male
Yield:
Rosetta Stone 16 seeds
Mota Hari 110 seeds
OG Kush g 60 seeds
Alien OG 32 seeds
I also took a clone of Rosetta Stone. I pollinated it and harvested after 5 1/2 weeks
On the upper plant I used the tall Pineapple Express male
On the lower plant I used a short smelly Pineapple Express male .
Yield:
808 seeds from tall male donor
322 seeds from short male donor
I gave 30 away already.
I put 20 of each of the latter, in the freezer and the rest in an ammo case in the refrigerator.
I noticed a few hundred seeds were underdeveloped and did not count them. In future I will go at least 6 weeks and probably only pollinate lower branches as it was a lot of time collecting and counting seeds.
