Grow Timeline (31 updates)
Lsd and Brb peaking thru to say ello!π€
Germinated in two days. I used a heating mat without temp settings, so I had to check it often to ensure it would not dry out. Kept the cube moist for the most part.
Turned on lights today on preset veg/seedling setting:
Full spectrum= 70%
UV= 50%
IR= O%
Duration= 18/6
Distance= 30in
12/24/25 12hr difference
Day 4 from seed
Spring water only
U did that last night at at 11.42 at night and 6 hrs later u have a seed am I seeing this right ??? If so that's super fast .at least tell us your secret
yes, i messed up on the date. Both from 12/24. Im in awe. I have to chalk it up to the heating pad and partial dome cover. It's loving the heat. Today I have roots. Going to transplant tomorrow. Not sure if the brand of cube makes a difference, but it's from Root Riot.
A lil asmr? Ok! So all three have roots showing at the bottom. I initially only prepped for two plants. I have two 3 gallon fabric pots below the heating station. I'm not even sure all three strains will grow successful inside the closet. I plan on topping and training for sure. Training is my favorite activity with any plant. My closet is 2x3x6. I will try transplanting the BB and LSD tomorrow and give the purp another day. Sheeet, or should I start transplanting tonight? hmmm, im nervous.
Being autos Iβd put them in their home asap
Watch the LSD plant can get big , usually 4-6 feet . Grew that a lot in the 80βs was popular back then from Barneyβs genetics. Can take abuse & tie downs or manifold style
Many thanks, transplanted today..
Many thanks for that tip. I doubt I can grow all three in there, so maybe i'll move the LSD to a smaller tent by itself once it starts flowering.
Today is day 6 from seed!
If you dont see me posting. Its because the app keeps crashing on me.
The soil was fully watered a few days before transplant so I only watered around the cube. One bottle of water between both plants.
Purple Haze is growing the slowest. I put it in a solo cup for now. The LSD & Berry Bomb are in 3G pots.
So the Haze was growing slow from jump. I am paranoid about bugs and saw something under my scope. I then went HAM and started brushing diatomaceous earth on them. I was too aggressive and injured the stem on the Haze. It did not recover π. Sole focus is on the LSD and Berry Bomb now. They are coming along nicely!
Today is day 18 from seed.
-White residue is diatomaceous earth. (yeh I know I went innnnn....π€£)
Yeah I can tell you really didn't want to hurt the plant, must be some good L π€£π€£
π€£π€£π€£π€£indeed
Today is day 24 from seed.
LSD is flowering and seems to have some PH issues but she will recover. I started excited and ended stressedπ€£π€£π€£π€£. The flowering caught me off guard. It's my first auto and im super animated.
I messed up on the nutes a few times, so its my fault.
Performed actiontype.watering
Today is day 28 from seed!I can't keep up. The LSD is growing so fast. Berry Bomb is short, bushy AF, and very hard to train with its short ass branches. I've mainly tucked and chopped 2-3 fan leaves. I am afraid to chop more. The BrB started flowering today, but the LSD started 4 days ago 1/14
Switched light to Custom 17/7 as following:
-Full Spectrum= 100%
-UV= 30%
-IR= 20%
Distance= 17-20 inches
Performed actiontype.watering
About 3/4 gal for the LSD and 1/2g For the BrB
I messed up here again (I promise this is last, lol π€).. I added double the amount of Grow by accident. But I think they'll be fine, as I felt I was under feeding during veg. Iono yo! We shall see aye!
Today is day 32 from seed.
Day 1 Week 2 of LSD π
Day 3 Week 1 of BrB π
Larger plant is LSD | Smaller plant is Berry Bomb (BrB)
Still some discoloration in the leaves, but im not too worried. Overall I think they both look healthy. Keeping my fingers crossed.
BrB still bushy AF, but it's a lil more open now.
Today is day 49 from seed. Day 26 of Flower for LSD, day 22 for BRB.
Took a break from posting.. Went on a mini learning binge about VPD and started paying attention to my readings daily, I have been ignoring it all this time. Last two weeks have been roller coaster maintaining proper conditions inside my grow space, but I think I got it locked it now. They look happy. I feel like I over defoliated and at the sametime they still look bushy to me....(?).... Maybe too much LST?
U should defoliate a lot more air needs to get through there
I was gona say you did good but you coulda took more. an still can
Hey let me ask you if you got what I gathered from it VPD is essentially how healthy the plant is because of how much air the plant is using up and the reading is "what's left" of the air.. right or no?
Best to get the VPD from the leaf surface. Pick up the ac infinity VPD gun & best to hang probes over canopy in several ares . Air temps always vary in the tent .
Bet! Thankful I shared. Feedback like this is very helpful. I shall continue taking off more and will update by Monday for more feedback. Much appreciated.
Same as above. Many thanks Growmie. I am even more inclined to proceed now.
On it! hope its not too expensive. Thank you and if there's anything else you recommend, I am all ears. learning so much from you all. π₯π₯π₯
aww Stompy1o1 you're gonna make me go dive even deeper with that info. I am not ready.... So far, monitoring it helped me to understand where I was going wrong with the temp and humidity levels in my tent. My plants were stressed and transpiring very quickly. It's my first indoor grow and I was already overwhelmed by all the things I need to track, and VPD was not something on my tracking list. I didn't know anything about it two weeks ago and still don't know much. But the changes ive made since monitoring it has shown me that my plants are happier when I adjust humidity and temps to match the corresponding 'optimal' ranges for flowering on the VPD chart. Even the my readings may not be π―, as CannaBee99 suggested I should measure the leaf vpd instead. All this learning is exciting, even with the overwhelm.π« I hope all that blabbing makes senseπ€£π€£π€π€
I asked chat gpt to break it down for me and thats what it told me
The AC Infinity VPD gun was around $30 . I got one from my buddy hydro shop & I get discounts. It around that price & gives accurate temps . Most important VPD is at leaf surface area . Like I said in a tent it will vary inside the tent . I believe Amazon sells em
TY, ur sure right, just purchased it for $28
Day 68 from seed, Day 45 of πΈπ for LSD..
Snipped an insignificant nug from the bottom to view under my scope.
Very nice formations on those trichs. I can only imagine how swole the buds on the main colas are.
Many thanks Growmie. Just posted an update on the other plant as well!
I have never flushed before. I have some Carbo Flush from Lotus Nutrients and I am eager to use it. I shall start tonight.... Fingers Crossed...
Jus about ready another week or less see ticha starting to brown an make sure the trich pics your taking are of the buds not a leaf. Unless you don't like really stoney smoke like couch lock then cut now. But if u want strong as can be wait a lil
Cut all water too before you go to cut "like a couple days bf" it helps with drying a lil more an other stuff. An id do a 24 hr darkness too. Don't have too but it seems to make the smoke better
ohh thanks for that, this one is the leaf. Will check the bud on this one next. I checked the bud of the LSD on the previous post. I love that couch lock, will def waiting a lil longer.
Definitely eager to try 24hr darkness. Also, I have a setting on this light called 'Final Finish' that gives pure UV light (No IR OR FS) for 24hr-48hrs.
That's fuckin sick what kinda light is it? And me too couch lock is lovely that's why I started my own these companies to worried about money an not actually getting people stoned I think lmao esp dispensary. An no problem if I can help someone I will especially if I see in time an nobody else answersππ€
Much appreciated, always. I have the Gorilla GXI330 LED
Never heard of it I'll have to look it up
Looks amazing! Make sure to check bud for ripeness, trichomes on fan leaves mature quicker
Looking good, but that also looks like a fan/shade/sugar leaf. Remember trichomes always mature faster on leaves and to check the bud for doneness.
Many thanks, I will check the bud itself today.
Yes it is the sugar leaf. Thanks for that, I will be sure to check the bud itself.
Iβll keep my fingers crossed sheβs ready for you!
π€πΎπ€πΎπ€πΎMuch appreciated Growmieπ€
Be careful getting them nutes that hott starting to move up leaf
TY, 4sho... I've been weaning her off a few days now
Yessir np. If you are already I think you caught it right in time Id start to flush 10percent too if getting close to harvest still gota alot of nitrogen in her or the soil. Still gota lil to go because they aren't cloudy yet so should be gucci
The majority are getting chopped this weekend.. Started Flushing last week with Lotus Nutrients Carbo Flush (0-0-12) at 1/4-1/2 strength, 1gal per plant, 10-20% runoff. Reduced the light down to 50% (gradually), raised it and changed to 20hrs on. Will do 48hrs of pure UV light two days b4 chopping. I am not doing 24/48 dark period.
Wish me luck.. I've never harvested buds this dense before or this much at once. Oy!
Though I enjoyed this first time indoor grow. I cannot wait to go back growing outdoors. I just want sit in nature and watch my plants in meditation while burning my herbs.
I'm also more an intuitive grower, my plants communicate with me in ways I cannot really describe w/o sounding loco. lol. But if you know ya know eh. I find indoors to be much more scientific and I don't feel as much in tuned with the plants as I do outdoors (if that makes sense to anyone).
But again, its my first indoor grow experience so im sure that will change over time)..
Ok dun with the blabbing for nowπ€
πͺ΄ππͺ΄ππͺ΄ππͺ΄ππͺ΄ππͺ΄
ππ€ thanks Growmie
Stunning very nice
much appreciated growmie
Okkkayyyyyy.. I decided not to chop this past weekend and go another 5-6 days. Last flush was lastnight. Trichomes show peak potency. I've been checking them every two days. I'd like a bit more amber.
BrB finally showing anthocyanin traits.
π€€
Let me start by saying Superb work, my 2 favorite pics are #3 & #6. You can almost smell the pictures, again Superior work, you should be proud.
1st time using this thing. I hope it does me well. I have cats that will scratch the shit out of fabric tents.
Spray peppermint and the floor next to it and will keep cats dogs and bugs away
I have that on deck.. I had no idea it's a deterrent. Many thanks growmie.. I will try just that.
Ur welcome any time
