Gelly Mama and Sugar Tree

Started the Germination process using the paper towel method. Stored them in a dark place. Will check them in three days and will place them in soil once I have a 1/2 inch taproot.

used the paper towel method to crack seeds. left for three days. 100% success. one of the sugar tree beans was 3-4 inches long already!! I’m very excited.

I know it was early to transplant at 1 week above soil, but the roots were already poking out the bottom of the starting tray. Used my organic living soil super mix and Mykos directly on the roots. Slightly watered them in. Around 50mL of dechlorinated tapwater at 6.8 ph. Environment is at 80% rh and 82 degrees. I sure am excited to see these ladies grow. I hate these blurple lights but it’s all I’ve got available atm.

all four ladies are looking good in this veg cabinet. waiting for my flowering room to finish out. Got around 4-6 more weeks before these go into flower hopefully. Nothing major has happened. Just watering at 6.5. Will transplant in a week or two.

Topped them 3 days ago. Noticed earlier today there were roots hanging out the bottom of their pots. So I transplanted into pre cooked organic living soil. (35 days cooking). Other than that just been letting them dry back and watering at 6.5.

For this run I decided to manifold each plant. I waited until I got to the fifth node and topped back to the third. after that I topped at the first node each time. I have done it 4 times and will be doing it for the fifth time each later this week. After that I will give them a pre flower feed and let them adjust and get some height. when my last run is dry I can flower these babies. I’m so ready!!!

I’ve got to top these girls one more time before I flip them. I’m going to give them a good compost tea feed and too dress them for flower. Will give them 2 weeks in 18/6 to get good and ready for the flip. Hopeing these make me proud. I need them done asap. Also this is my first run using the complete spider farmer ggs monitoring system. Super excited about that as well. Wish me luck.

Just checking in on these plants since the move yesterday. Seems as if they’re adjusting nicely. Will feed them with compost tea for my next watering and will also top dress with my 4-8-4 bloom nutes and my 0-11-0. This is the second run in this soil. Hoping it’s getting better with each use.

First time using the manifold method. Any tips n tricks? or anything I can do better at? I accidentally finished the grow on the app because I forgot I still had 1 plant left but here’s the last from last run still going strong.

All four of these girls have been topped 5 times each. I gave them the pre flower feed around 4-5 days ago I believe. I am now just waiting for them to get bigger before I flip them. I’m also still waiting for this one from last run to finish. She in turtle mode.

These have been topped five times each. I’m done with the hst for this run. I’ll start lst once I flip into flower. These plants are only 6-8 inches tall. I want them at least 18 inches tall before I flip. They are receiving 6.5 ph water, 585 PPFD, 1644 ppm Co2, VPD is .98 kpa and 40 cfm for exhaust. Run off is .9 ec. Hoping to flip in 10-14 days.

Schedule has been changed. Waiting for sex to show and it’s game on. Will feed again next week for flower. I’m using all three lights for this one. Hopefully I’ll have some pressure.

Top dressed with DTE 4-8-4 and 0-11-0. They are getting water when the pots are light. Still not seeing pistol hairs. Only a few days after flip. Staying vigilant because I have 6 M/F plants in here. Overall everything is looking swell. VPD is on point and the girls are happy. Couldn’t ask for anything more. Hopefully I will be able to continue taking care of my plants as I am looking at a major back surgery. It’s not ideal but I’ve been waiting 11 years to get fixed. Wish me luck.

Had to rearrange the plants in this room so I can better water them with my fucked up back and legs. Everything has literally just been getting watered at 6.5 ph. They’re receiving around 800-900 ppfd and 1100-1300 ppm of co2. VPD is staying around 1.0-1.1.

pulled 4 males out which sucks but hey that’s how she goes. The girls are looking great. wish I didn’t see floor space. still just watering at 6.5.

Wondering when the stretch will be over lol.

Still just watering them when needed. Living soil is awesome. This run has impressed me so far. looking forward to smoking on these.

Have been just watering at 6.5 ph. My gnat issue is finally resolved after 5 million sf beneficial nematodes. Tried to defoliate some and spread some branches out for better light penetration. Also tried to tie down the one that wasn’t trained. It is 4 foot tall 😂. Noticed some purple coloring on the Gelly mama. I think it’s maybe phosphorus deficiency. I also saw some yellowing-rusty spots on the Sugar trees. I have added what each plant needs along with some mycorrhiza to get help speed up the process. I will start adding 1 Tbsp of unsulfured black strap molasses per 5 gallons of 6.5 water each watering starting next week. We are in the home stretch. I am super excited to see my progress in my organic soil blend since last grow. I have had zero issues this run. Last run I had all kinds of deficiencies and ultimately had one reverse and make seeds on itself. It’s a great feeling to see how I get better with each run I get under my belt.

These got fucked from the gnat infestation. After the sf nematodes done their work they have made a full come back. The sugar tree clone is absolutely huge and perfect in my eyes. The Apple fritter is still bouncing back. I also noticed that one of the branches has three leafs per node. I’m finally getting a hang of this Manifolding technique and am liking the results on my current run that’s flowering.

So I’m thinking for my no till I’m going to use these 55 gallon drums. I have the actual grow container cut at 30 gallons. I have the actual grow container set inside the tops flipped upside down so that it keeps the soil and plants off the ground. it helps with my back in working with the plants and gives me a place for runoff and a place to collect runoff in case I need to diagnose anything. is this a good idea or any advice that I should know of?

My daughter had left some food in my basement that caused a fungus gnat infestation inside my basement. It took 4 weeks to get them under control. The stress from the bugs caused my plants to hermie and absolutely fucked the entire grow. only a few more weeks left just for my kid to fuck it at the end. I’m going to try next run and it it doesn’t go well I guess I’m just going to quit. If you don’t have kids, don’t have any! they fucking ruin everything. I love them will all my heart but goddamn.

Even though these accidentally got pollinated they’re some pretty nice buds. I’ll probably have 300-400 seeds between 6 plants. Whoops…..😬

Yes I’m upset 😭

trichomes were pretty much white all over. Wasn’t going to wait around for amber with it 100% full of seeds. Pulped the two PBJ 2.0 out and put them in the 2x4 I borrowed from a friend. I will be harvesting the seeds and collecting the hash off the seeded out plants. The PVJ 2.0 still has a couple weeks I believe. Still mostly clear and have some swelling still to do. I don’t see any seeds in either of these even though they were in the same flower room.

Same ol Same ol watering when light at 6.5 ph. The drying process is going smoothly for the plants that got pollinated. At least I’ll have these two to fall back on and smoke while my next run finishes out.

pbj trichomes check up. I’m seeing mostly cloudy trichomes but still quite a few clears. probably 70/30 white/cloudy. there’s no amber yet. the sugar tree clone is basically done for training now and ready to go into the 30 gallon container. The room and it change will be happening within the next week or so. I have so much work cleaning everything to reset. I’m not looking forward to it but it is necessary so I will be sucking it up butter cup.

Got the sugar tree clone and apple fritter transplanted into their new forever home. I’m excited to implement the no till method in my garden and ready to see the results. These are 27.5 gallon containers. Plenty of room for every plant to stretch out their roots and plenty of food for all the microorganisms that live in the soil. if the life inside of my soil is happy then whatever is growing out of the soil will be amazing.

Same ol shit just another day. The two different phenotypes of pbj 2.0 are beautiful in color and one is aboslutely caked in trichomes. Under the microscope pic is the bottom of a sugar leaf. That one is kind of sweet and funky. The other pheno is more fruity and sweet. The bud structures are completely different as well. It’s wild to see how wide of a spectrum you can get from two different seeds same strain. I love it. I’m waiting for the pbj’s to finish and dry so I can finish cleaning my flower room. The Apple fritter will be topped two more times before moved into flower room. will give them 2-3 weeks with 18/6 in flower room to get acclimated and under heavy lighting and then let em rip. NO FUCK UPS THIS TIME DAMNIT!!!!! Lmao

thoroughly cleaned out the flowering room. will be putting a second sf-2000 in the space. 30 gallon grow container. Organic Liveing Soil. I’m hoping this clone will fill out this 4x4 space.

Not exactly sure what kind of trouble she was in last night come to find out Spidey and ghost took care of it for me.

Sugar tree clone is going going through the stretch faze. The apple fritter is still vegging out so she can bulk up some. I’m no longer fucking with small plants.

Moving at a much quicker pace now. Glad to see some buds coming in. will feed again next week pk boost

they are receiving 35k lux right now. will be turning that up a little bit every three days for the next two weeks or until they say no more. 1600 ppm co2 6.5 ph soil 1.09 kpa.

starting to see some discoloration of the newer growth. everything underneath is still beautiful green. a few leaves I’ve pulled here and there looks like she wants some calcium. what you think?

Give her some cal mag to address the issues. Basically just been watering at 6.5 and training whenever I feel like she needs it. Apple fritter is under the blue still in veg. She’s stiff armed already so just waiting for a little more girth and she will be flowering as well.

Just been watering when she’s thirsty. Last check up I had to give her powdered egg shells and some Epsom salt. Since then she has recovered and continued to shine up. Trichomes are coming in nicely and nodes are pretty tight together. I’m hoping this will be 1/2-3/4 pound. I’m super excited for the Apple fritter to flower. (under blue light) When should I say go? I just keep on supercropping and spreading her out.

Same ol shit just another day. watering when needed. lights are pushing. my co2 bag is now depleted. Germinated 5 pbj for next run. Apple fritter is about ready for flower now.

Took absolutely everything out of the room and cleaned everything to brand new. Added my blue/red 240watt light. also introduced the Apple fritter into the flowering room. I’m so excited and so nervous too because last run had seeds. All looks well in the garden. Now I can do is wait ,wait, and wait some more.

I’m thinking those 30 gallon pots are the bees knees. sugar tree will be entering week 5 on Saturday. Apple fritter is still in stretch. Looking like between the two plants I’ll have around 1.5-2 pounds? maybe that’s wishful thinking.

I believe I’ll be chopping the sugar tree tonight or tomorrow night. depends if I want to build the tent or not for dry. The Apple fritter will be all alone. Need to germ some seeds bad.

Cut the sugar tree last night and got her drying now. See you in a couple weeks.

Apple fritter is looking pretty good. Controller on my sf2000 took a shit so now have to control light intensity with height for now. Still waiting on the sugar tree to finish drying. Happy new year!!!

I know she’s not the best looking. My back has flared up and I haven’t been able to get out of bed much the past three weeks. She’s thirsty and having a deficiency. can someone help me identify what she’s lacking? I was thinking phosphorus.
