Grow Timeline (12 updates)
Also considering trying to bend my dividers ands just do 3 plants in each pot. So I don't have to pop any more and just veg a little longer to fill the space and keep everything the same.
Really high rn and just realized I just have 3 plants so gonna pop a 3rd KIF lol!
Started nutrients today using less than usual doses. I keep seeing a lot of people saying they do extremely well with half the amount that I do, so trying my luck at being a bit frugal. So far all the CBS look happy, healthy, and green. It's the KIF that are kind of concerning me since they're not as big as the CBS at the same point. It's just the beginning so not trying to stress too much.

Dude you are correct! PH in my little jug was 7.02! I'm growing in coco coir. I think what did me in was leaving a couple soap nuts in the jug this time. Last time I let them soak a bit and then took em out. Live and learn! Thank you for your advice! Mixing a new batch rn.
Yessir no problem 5.8 anytime sometime is new put in or jus after a week I usually check pH again. Jus be careful the one that drooping looks kinda over watered so don't give them too much
Just happy to help before they get too far buddy🤘 cocoa dries out fast from what I've heard. Tbh tho I've never grown in it. Always live soil here
I just flushed with tap water and then a few runs of the fresh nute solution, got the run off down to 6. Might give it another go to bring them down more after they drain off a bit. Hoping they can bounce back in time.
I hope to get to use living soil one day. I just dont have much space in our small apartment. And for simplicities sake tbh. Haha!
No these happen to be photoperiod. Which is giving me some hope they might pull through...
They'll be okay no worries🤞🤘👌 jus be easy on the nutes till they start taking it in. Don't Wana give em too much

Are you giving calmag buddy? You definitely saved em on that maybe flush one more time if that's soil it's takes dry backs an a lower pH flush to bring it down
Yea they're getting some GH Calimagic and they're in coco coir, so I always add it. They still have some lime color to them, but have darkened and grown a bit since last night. Still a bit there but better than before.
I gota remember since your pH was high untill you get back down they will look like they aren't taking in calmag even tho you are giving it to her
They seemed to love the new pots this morning. They were def greener. I'll try to remember to snap a picture when I get home. Wanna put some stakes in to train them a bit too
They have been growing great and the KIF have recovered so well. I was nervous for them because it seemed to take a while for the yellowing to fade. I'm putting in a net over the top this weekend to help spread them out in the tent. I'm hoping to flip them to 12/12 in the next week or two, if they're at a size I like. I'm planning to allow a bit more vertical growth then when I did a full scrog last time. I feel like I didn't let them get very tall. I'm also trying to be less lazy and really take note of everything I do, thanks to this app. It's way better and easier than the last one I used. It was kind of annoying, but this one has a way better format
If they keep drooping drop back the light a lil an see if they pick up if not you have something goin on. I would think unless something I'm missing you did lately they would be doin a lil better or at least picked up a lil more.
Forgot to mention I did some leaf tucking on top of using stakes for some heavy lst by bending the plants. The plants are pretty much horizontal cuz I wanted to center them within the tent. So they look really short in the pics.
Ya but leaves r 👇 shouldn't make mostly all of em like that unless stressed too much light an needs a break or of other things I jus usually start with that. That's why I said no biggie if you know what's goin on tho buddy
Nah, dude Im always open ears to advice. Never a biggie cuz I'm still learning. Thanks for the heads up cuz we were leaving for a trip for today and tmrw. Adjusted them before I left!
Unfortunately had some family stuff happen unexpectedly and had to kind of leave the plants as an after thought. I feel like I've neglected them these last couple of weeks, but they look great still. Switched them a little sooner than I'd like but I'm on a bit of a schedule and it looks like I've got them spread out enough for hopefully a decent yield. The KIF is growing so well, even the runty looking ones. The CBS never skipped a beat, even when my pH was so off earlier in the grow.
All the girls are going great and beginning to Flower nicely. I am still so impressed at how Heisenbeans Crushberry Sugar didn't skip a beat even with the high pH swings I was putting them through, unbeknownst to me. And Trichome Bros Khumbu Ice Fall just rebounded like nobodies business, except for a runty looking one. But apparently small stretches aren't surprising with this strain. Even the runt is putting on some nice frost and size. CBS is starting to show tinges of blue and purple here and there. KIF has some purple coming in under the leaves too! I cannot wait to see how they turn out. It's been a learning experience and I feel like I'm finally honing the skills for this fine craft.... I hope 🤣
I'm hoping to yield as close to a pound as I can. If not more lol! Haven't been able to hit it yet, but I've come close. Had I not killed a plant on my last grow, I think I would have beat my best from my first grow of 14oz. I got 6oz fromthe one plant that survived on my last grow. The one that died was much larger and had big buds before it died. I have hope that I should be close to 14oz or more judging from their size, fingers crossed. I'm really high rn and just being hopeful. So I take these thoughts with a grain of salt lol
Some of the leaves on the crushberry are starting to turn to a shade of purple. And the scent on this thing is starting to kick in hard. Smells sweet, syrupy, like blueberry jam almost. Frosting up too. KIF isn't too far behind, but not too much color showing up top. Some of the fan leaves I had trimmer did have some purple underneath. Leaving for a week tmrw for a family wedding. Can't wait to see what I get back to! Fingers crossed the reservoir lasts long enough for the week we'll be gone. Gonna top her off before we leave. Might fill the bases a bit too, just in case.
I think I mentioned before, but I feel like I've finally got my growing technique dialed in after only a year and a half lol! All of the plants are showing insanely sticky, stinky, frosty af, fast growing, big buds. The CBS especially, I finally understand when people says the resin feels greasy and the resin off of these girls feel like an oil spill in the ocean! KIF is right up there as well, showing quick growth and sticky, frosty, large buds. I haven't really noticed a ton of color on KIF but CBS sugar is starting to quickly show signs of purple. I'm hoping CBS starts to show some blue soon. KIF should start turning further towards the end, according to the breeders at Trichome Bros.
Also upgraded from a 2x3 to a 2x4, to take full advantage of having 2 lights
