End of week 12 (day 84 since 12/12):
Well now its 10/14 so hopefully this will help them finish faster.
The SourD is fattening up very nicely and starting to fox-tail now beautifully ... i love it when they do that
The BlueKush is foxtailing too but stretching much ... hopefully the longer night period of 14 hours will help with that. I meant to chop the BlueKush but just couldnt ... will let her gor for a week and see what happens with her ... a Tangerine Dream mystery seed sprouted today. One more TD and one nore PE trailing!
group shot then singles of the SourD then BlueKush
Till next update happy growin yall :-)

Who’s genetics were those?
Dutch passion .... amazing high smell ans taste ... she drew well ... but the hermie genetics in her suck ... i just harvested a pineapple express mystery .... how seeded the buds are and their structure as well as the smell tell me the dad is strawberry cough too ... worrried that this crappy hermie trait ends up in ALL the seeds ... lets hope not cause im popping another pineapple express mystery seed and a tangerine dream mystery seed (both were in the same groom as the strawberry cough)
Happy growin brother

Was there a hiccup with your lights to cause that re-veg? I think landrace strains will reveg so you have to bring the day light hours down, but I think you have been doing that
I doubt a hiccupt with the light. Its on its own controller and i checked when ot turned on and off. Right on time. The PE x SC is full of seed. So she went into senescence i guess but was kept in flowering on 12/12 ... the bluekush did that weird thing but the sourD didnt. I assumed too much of those sativa genetics that like longer night light. I thought the far red being on by itself for 15min after lights off triggered quicker NIGHT time ... not sure really whats happening. I lowered the light to 11 on then 10 on only a few days back. I'll see what that does for the fun of experimenting since i have to wait on the SourD a little anyway ... and im behing on mixing my soil ... havebt even broken up and wash the expanded coco lol ... thinking im so behing that maybe i should scrap sprouting unkown genetics seeds project and wait til i mix my soil and sprout 4 seeds from knoen breeders ... barneyd swordsman nirvana black label .... dont want to risk the shitty genetics ... and from now on flowering day time will be reduced to 11h starting 8th week and 10h starting 10th week lol

Yeah man that’s too bad, sorry about all of that growth. I’m growing Nirvana’s Bkue Mystic and I haven’t had any problems so far. Last grow with BM, I had s to. Of light leaks which just prolonged the flowering time but not hermie it. Next time I buy seeds i’ll Be going elsewhere. What are you looking at getting next time around?

Thanks buddy its all good ... that which does not kill me (or waste my weed lol) will only make me stronger hah .... i got free seeds of nirvanas bluemystic and plan on popping them soon ... good genetics is what we need so that stress doesn make the hermie genetics surface!
I got one Pineapple express and one tangerine dream buds mystery seeds that sprouted. Awaiting the barneys farm liberty haze .... still debating if i should scrap the mystery plabts and work with 3-4 known genetics ... anyway i popped a liberty haze and untill i mix my soil and get the groom ready, ill decide what to do in terms of strains and genetics :-) ... thanks again dude ans happy growin

End of week 13 weekly update:
The SourD is still foxtailing and shooting out white pistils but much less than before. Will be chopping both bitches down any day now .... dont want to wait anymore hah.
Group shot then singles from top left 1SourD then singles of buds then 2BlueKush and singles of buds.
The new PE mystery sproited girl was transplanted from 3" to 5" pot .. you can see her lower leavea yellowing. Too close to light and temp in low 80s mean high metabolic rate and at that rate this soil wont sustain it hence the transplant and i raised the light
Til next update happy growin yall

Went ahead and chopped last night at day 91 of flowering
First 3 shots are of thr BlueKush then a shot of the empty groom then shots of the SourD
Looking at those SourD buds while trimming, I felt I could have let them go for another week or so. They were still shooting out white pistils by the bunch. Anyway ... starting to mix my soil for the next run and prepping some biochar and harvesting some EWC right now ... exciting times to come :-)
Til next update happy growin yall :-)

Ahh, yeah I get why you had the feeling of harvesting too soon! But just looking at the unruly structure of those buds, I'd conjecture they would've looked the same had you left them for longer :mrgreen:
Besides, it's perfect timing: new year, new grow! :D
Cheers for sharing, enjoy your harvest, and on to new adventures!!

On the 13th of Dec I placed 2x Pineapple express mystery seeds and 2x tangerine dream mystery seeds in soil to germinate.
One PE sprouted on the 16th of Dec (first pic 2 weeks later, today)
One Tangerine Dream mystery sprouted on the 23rd of Dec (second pic a week later, today)
The 2 others were trailing badly so i germinated 1x PE mystery and 1x TD mystery between wet paper towels then placed them in soil. Today they both sprouted (last pic).
Im trying to recycle the old soil and add to it swapping the 9 gal pots for 15 gal smart pots.
Til next update, happy growin yall :-)

I dumped out my old soil and bam i think i had root nematodes .... wondering if i should keep the soil and amend it with more compost vermicompost alfalfa and neem and treat it this way or scrap it and start over
Pics of the knotted roots ... what do you guys think?
Do those nematodes bother the worms? Is this why the worms ran out?

Some thought the root knots are N fixing bacterial nodules like those seen in legumes. Althought its been shown that the N fixing bact can also be associated with other plants, in my case I do believe it WAS in fact nematodes!

If you ever realize you have root knot nematodes, discard that soil and start over otherwise you risk reduced yields etc while you're trying to rectify the issue. Keep in mind that since those pests bury themselves in the roots, its almost impossible to manage them with beneficials and other organic insecticides!

So ..... I dumped the bad soil all in a huge pot and will let it dry out through the cold and dry winter then let it dry out in the heat of the summer. Next year i plan on reactivating it, amending it with ewc and lots of alfalfa (which suppress nematodes) and let it cook ... then I'll plant in it things that are known to resist or suppress nematodes like marigolds etc for the whole year then see how it goes (as an experiment)!

Because of that issue, I went ahead and mixed new soil to fill my new 4x (#15) SmartPots. And because I am using those I decided to lower the aeration from 33% to about 25%.

I altered the ratio from 1:1:1 of the base:humus (vermi/compost):aeration

to

1cococoir:2compost/vermi:1aeration
so thats 25% of aeration and coco coir while the 50% is:

a mix of my own sifted compost and sifted vermicompost + Sapropel fertilizer (thats bottom of freshwater lake organic and miniral deposits that happens duebto low levels of O2 and its as black as biochar ... at least 60% of it is organic content) .. + HappyFrog soil conditioner (has compost, vermicompost, bat guanos, and mycos pkus that bullshit forest byproducts which means woodchips lol).
I then added a little extra coco coir and seashore tiny seashells deposits (that look like and feel like coarse sand) ... first pic

Each smart pot was half filled then the amendments were added and mixed in .. second pic. I then added the rock dust (last pic) and filled the pot with more soil and mixed it all in and the pots were moved indoor (warmer).

The amendments are (per 2cu ft in each smart pot):
Little mosquito bits
1cup alfalfa 3-0-3
1cup neem meal 6-1-2
1cup maxicrop kelp meal 1-0-2
1cup jobes organic bone meal 2-14-0
2cup Espoma tomato tone 3-4-6
1cup high N bat guano 10-1-1
1cup malted barley
8 cups rock dust
About 3-4 cups activated (with composted cow manure alfalfa and compost) biochar

While the 4 pots warm up indoors, I added 2 cups of EWC and a cup of compost to a 5 gal bucket of water with airstone and molasses and will aerate it for 36h before I water the new soil with it to speed up the process
Til next update, happy growin yall

The soil I mixed a couple days ago is in the groom and watered with the compost/ewc tea I startes 36h ago to give it a jumpstart.
The tangerine dream mystery seed I germinated on the 13th and sprouted on the 23rd of Dec was transplanted today from the 3" to 5" pot.
Til next update happy growin yall :-)

Tangerine Dream mystery #2 seedling was transplanted from the 3 to 5" pot. The last to remain in the 3" pot, PE mystery #2, is a bit pale which could be to being too clise to the led (this and the one before) but it could also be an issue with the plant itself ... will observe for the next couple days after increasing the distance to the light.

So the mysyery PE and TD that sprouted first are showing deficiency in their 5" pots while the TD mystery that popped later is doin very well in her 5"pot. The PE mystery in the 3" pot was delayed for a while and only now starting to grow again. I transplanted the 2 older plants in the 5" pots to 7" pots and the PE mystery in the 3" to 5" pot. Will top the bigger girls after the 7th node today, and may FIM the other 2 later on bit we will see. I plant on trandplanting all the ready ones to their final soil by Saturday.
Til next update happy growin yall :-)
