Girl Scout Cookie Day 58. This girl is getting close. Few fan leaves are looking like shit. I'm probably going to do a bit of defoliation today or tomorrow to open up some light for the smaller buds.

Blue Dream Day 58. She's looking good, best damn BD i've had. Might not be great, but if you only saw the hideous things "plants" i had in the past 4 tries.

Day 59 (x1 GSC, x1 BD)
Day 38 (x1 GSC, x1 SCC)
Day 10 (x1 GSC, x1 NL)
Day 1 (x1 SCC, x1 NL)

Watered today, all but the seedlings. They still haven't broke the soil, keeping them on Day 1 until they do. The big GSC got a nice watering of just straight h2o. Went for a decent amount of runoff too, this will probably be my last watering for her. She will be chopped Friday..

The other 3 large girls got a mixture of 1 tablespoon Big Bloom, 1 teaspoon CalMag, and 1/4 teaspoon Tiger bloom. The Strawberry Cheesecake is like a damn tree trunk. It really loves the Miracle Grow Moisture control.

The 10 day old GSC is not progressing like the Northern Lights. Must be having some trouble establishing a good root mass. Might of hit a patch of soil that was packed down. Hopefully it rebounds. Noticing some discoloration on the NL though.

Day 60 (x1 GSC, x1 BD)
Day 39 (x1 GSC, x1 SCC)
Day 11 (x1 GSC, x1 NL)
Day 2 (x1 SCC, x1 NL)

2nd 150w HPS arrived yesterday. Hooked it up and retired my 2 300w LEDs. They have been used for about 12,500 hours. They are rated as good for 50,000 hours. I'll keep them for emergency, maybe even make some sort of seedling grow box. Now just cranking 300w of HPS in a 4x2 tent. Just perfect and these babies are LOVING it!! I've never seen my leaves so perky, happy and green. Just a beautiful sight and very encouraging.

GSC main cola could be harvested today. It is so dense as is the 4 buds directly attached to the main stem. They are ROCK SOLID! Just touching them leaves my fingers smelling like it for hours.

Day 61 (x1 GSC, x1 BD)
Day 40 (x1 GSC, x1 SCC)
Day 12 (x1 GSC, x1 NL)
Day 3 (x1 SCC, x1 NL)

Little Northern Lights seedling was struggling to open the shell, so i had to help it out with some tweezers and patience. It doesn't look real good, hopefully it will recover. The Strawberry Cheesecake seedling is digging the HPS light. They are about 2 ft away from the light, i'll adjust as they grow a bit.

Gave both 40 day old girls and the 61 day old BD a nice tea that i mixed up and let it sit overnight. It was 4 1/2 gallons of water, 4 teaspoons cal mag, 4 teaspoons big bloom and 2 teaspoons tiger bloom, plus 2 tea compost bags. The water turned out nice and dark. I used 3 1/2 gallons watering 3 plants and I still have 1 gallon left over.

The 61 day old GSC is so fucking ripe right now. It smells amazing. Second carbon filter is arriving saturday, it will be a welcome addition to the room.

Day 62 (x1 GSC, x1 BD)
Day 41 (x1 GSC, x1 SCC)
Day 13 (x1 GSC, x1 NL)
Day 4 (x1 SCC, x1 NL)

The two leaves on the little NL seedling are turning brown, so i believe it is not going to make it. It probably would of died if i didn't help take the shell of anyways, so we just chalk it up as a loss. I'll leave it for a day or two, but don't see this one recovering.

Everything else is looking good. Chugging right along. I'll be in the grow room for a bit right now, so i'll snap some pics and post them when I get done.

GSC @ 62 1/2 days

The top 3 nodes (main cola and the next 2 smaller nodes attached to the main stalk) are all ROCK solid. I'm going to harvest them and let the lower branches go another week or so. I'll have to raise up the plant in the tent, but that shouldn't be a problem.

My camera sucks. I took a bunch of pictures hoping some would be decent. This is the best of the bunch.

Day 64 (x1 BD)
Day 43 (x1 GSC, x1 SCC)
Day 15 (x1 GSC, x1 NL)
Day 6 (x1 SCC)

Little SCC reached for the light overnight, was leaning over touching the dirt when i woke up. Fortunately, I was able to build a mound of dirt around it to keep it up til i got home from worked. Added an inch or so of soil to bury the weak stem portion. Should be good to go.

The 15 day old GSC is smaller than the 6 day SCC. I'm not sure if the roots are stuck in a packed down portion of soil. I'm usually pretty good about not packing it, but she's in a smaller plastic pot so that may have something to do with it. The 15 day old NL has some really odd color spots on it and doesn't look very healthy overall. These pots may be a bit too small, but I had no idea they would cause these kinds of issues. Sure wishing I would of just stuck with my Grow bags. Will going forwards, that is for sure. Also questioning the Miracle Grow Moisture Control. The 43 day old girls are both in MG MC soil. But they started in a solo cup of FFOF.

To be honest, the Blue Dream and both the 43 day old girls all look about the same. White hairs everywhere, but no swelling yet. Going off my predictions, BD has 2 weeks to go. GSC has 3 weeks and SCC has 4 weeks.

Took advantage of the Seedsman 4/20 sale.

Picked up x5 Girl Scout Cookie and x5 Gorilla Glue from Fastbuds. They threw in 3 Lemon and 3 Blueberry (both autos from Seedsman) and 3 Skunky Monkey and 3 High Density (both autos from Heavyweight Seeds).

They are also throwing in 4 more freebies I don't know what, 2 of 2 different kinds. Looks like I'm set til next year.

Day 66 (x1 BD)
Day 45 (x1 GSC, x1 SCC)
Day 17 (x1 GSC, x1 NL)
Day 8 (x1 SCC)

GSC (17 days) is still behind. It's smaller than SCC (8 days). I've had one do this before and once it finally took off it caught up quickly. Leaves are still green and soil is not soggy, but i'll continue to let it dry out.

NL (17 days) did not do well in this plastic pot. It's a pretty scraggly looking plant. And under the HPS lights it has some weird spots all over the leaves. I got 3 freebie Northern Lights autos, 2 didn't make it and this one is not looking too promising. Good thing they were freebies.

The 3 older girls are all plumping up. Blue Dream (66 days) is starting to fatten up. The other 2 (45 days) are just bulking up on white hairs at the moment. The Girl Scout Cookie (45 days) has just a beautiful smell to it. Anyone that is grown this strain knows what i'm talking about. It's way better than any other smell. Personally, i think so.

Just chugging along. Watered yesterday with just straight h2o, got some nasty colored runoff, so i'll probably give just h2o again tomorrow or wednesday when they need it.

Closeup of the Northern Lights. Just doesn't look healthy to me. Not sure, i haven't been feeding anything, just h2o, maybe it is time to start feeding. Not sure on this one.

Day 11 (x1 SCC)

Things are getting stinky! Nice aroma from 3 maturing plants going on it the tent. Watered yesterday, giving just water again w/ no nutes. All leaves are a nice dark green, so i'm going to just give water on the bigger girls until I see some signs of it needed fed.

The 20 day old girls are a problem i believe. I used those plastic, self watering pots and I think that really did me in. I won't ever use them again. The GSC is still as small as a seedling @ 20 days. I've got the room though, so i'm just letting them grow out. Anything that makes it to harvest is just a bonus.

Left jar with harvested GSC closed overnight and only sitting at 63% RH. I'll just be opening once or twice a day (to pinch out some to smoke lol).
