Powertech's third grow

Powertech · Jan 26, 2020

I decided to start another journal even though my last one isn't quite done yet. This one will be following along 4 different strains from seed, all ordered from seedsman. I'm not affiliated in anyway with seedsman or the seed companies I bought from, but so far I am happy, wish I was lucky enough to rep a company. This will be my third grow ever. The first was a single plant that went through just about every problem you can have, but she came out the other side fantastic. My second grow that is currently 45 days since switching to 12/12 is 8 plants, 4 blue cookies, and 4 ice cream cake. They turned out to all be major hermie seeds, but I did not notice until week 4 of flower so I am growing them out for the experience, and to have some smoke I can pick seeds out of to get me by. Also going to be making hash.

This grow as I said is my third ever. I will be using the same method I did for the first two grows, Black Gold organic soil, start seeds in rapid rooter cubes, transplant to 1 gal plastic then to 5 gal fabric pots, Great White, Grow More 30-10-10 for veg, Grow More 0-50-30 for flower, botanicare calmag, DynaGrow Pro-TeKt silica, Epsom as needed, molasses, and filtered water.

Strains from Seedsman
Blue OG x5- from G13
Blueberry x5 - from 00 (actually got 6 in the pack!)
White Widow x3 - seedsman freebie
Alaskan purple x3 - seedsman freebie

I got the seeds right when they said they would get here, and popped one of each strain less than an hour after getting them in the mail. At less than 36 hrs, the Blue OG was poking through the top of the starter, that's some fast germination! At 53 hrs, they all have movement. The Blue OG almost has its shell off, the Alaskan Purple broke ground, the White widow is peeking out the top, and i can see the Blueberry has moved well up the starter.

Transplanted last night as they all had tap roots out the bottom of the starters. All have also shed their shells, but the Blueberry and White Widow haven't opened up yet. Going well so far!

Lucky I'm still waiting on my seedsman order. Been a while but I'm in no rush

Edit: I just checked my mailbox and there they were. Probably came on time. Thought I would receive tracking # like they said so I never checked

That good, because if you don't have patience then you probably shouldn't be growing lol!!!

Lol I got em. Also received the 2 freebies u got along with some Zkittles og auto from Barney's and bubble Kush auto from Royal

If my credit card company would stop blocking the purchases i'd have a ton more on the way!

Anyway, here are the girls. All have opened up now, stretching more than I thought they would under the blue light. Was going to give them two weeks from seed in the little tent under the blue light then move them to the Veg tent under the AGLEX2000, dimmed way down. The COB's on the AGLEX are pretty good for Veg, and my veg tent is only 3x3. I plan on taking the first clone I can from each plant, and flowering them after they get some roots. If any of them are something special then I keep it in the veg tent and use it to clone off of for awhile, while also starting others. I plan on getting one more tent (wife will probably kill me) and it will be used for my mother tent, and eventually when I find two something specials, force one to give me some female pollen, and pollinate the other, and see what I get

Lots of optimism and wishful thinking on my part for what is shown in these pics on day 6 from seed lol. 4 seeds 4 seedlings, its a good start. Damn light, i'll get pics with normal light in a bit, pisses me off when other people do that and here I am. Although I am not directly asking for help either. If suggestions are offered I do not mind but do not take offence if I do not use your suggestion either.

Ok turned the light off long enough to get a picture lol

And, they were all reaching pretty bad, so I figured, why not see how they do in their new home. Hadn't planned on moving them yet, but their home was ready with a dimmer on the AGLEX2000. Almost 12 hrs and they seem fairly happy. Will be going on 20/4 Monday at a little increased power, same height. Will slowly increase power to max over time

Powertech · Feb 10, 2020

They are starting a bit slow, but I’m sure it is due to the cooler temps but it isn’t too bad. Some leaves stated to curl, but the newer leaves are not so I’m not too worried.

Powertech · Feb 11, 2020

I think they liked being fed, not bad growth for a day considering how slow they were going before. Hoping I don’t have a root issue on the Blue OG, the others are growing out of the leaf twist but she is not.

Powertech · Feb 17, 2020

They are doing quite nicely considering they are just recovering from a small gnat problem. Saw them with sticky traps, sprayed neem oil one time and Plant Therapy one time, and today I can't find anything, I put fresh traps out and will keep a close eye on them, always do. They will be moving to the bigger tent in about a week, that's when the current harvest should be going into jars. Have to come up with a different dring method though as I will now be using all 3 tents all the time. hmmmm, maybe time for a new big tent and keep old big tent for drying?

Powertech · Feb 24, 2020

Well, the Blue OG is having a rough time, probably roots never got healthy after gnats. Had a little accident too and my bug zapper fell on the Blueberry, took out an entire side. She seems to be doing ok though as that was a few days ago. The White Widow and Alaskan Purple are doing the best, and they were freebie seeds lol

Powertech · Feb 26, 2020

Moving day! Hopefully girls will like their new home and won’t mind a little construction, that’s what happens when you are the first in the neighborhood. They havnt actually picked their plots of land yet though, they can’t decide, you know they are girls

Lookin good for this third grow Powertech!
I hear a lot of people like that Alaskan purple freebie from seeds man ! I look forward to stoping in and checking ya out !

Powertech · Feb 27, 2020

they took temp residence spots for the night, will be their new home till I give them more light. I’ll give the roots a bit to take to the new pot, then I’ll start increasing light

They are happy, so I am happy. Also, for the Blue OG, maybe she just needed some new dirt and trim off the unhealthy roots (during transplant, it lost a lot of dirt and roots because nothing was help together well)
