for week 8 only
add GH KoolBloom (dry) 1/4 tsp
week 9 and 10
ph adjusted water only
05/16 Filled solo cup containers with Sunshine Mix, watered well with ph adjusted water and planted seeds.
05/19 Ten of ten seeds had sprouted. Moved under HLG 260 watt quantum board led indoors in tent.
Quick Aside...I can't express how much I love this light. I have had it for six months. In a 2x4 tent the temp is only raised 2 degrees over ambient room temp. My plants love it. They grow lush and green and have very tight internode spacing. I have vegged with all kinds of lights and this one is AWESOME!
06/02 Culled one runt. Transplanted remaining nine plants into 5 gallon cloth containers and moved to the great outdoors.
These plants were tough! They had to put up with 50+ mph winds on several occasions. During weeks 7 and 8 most days were over 100 degrees. I live near Albuquerque NM elevation is about a mile over sea level. The sun is very intense and it is very dry. I think it rained once and it was a desert downpour where we got like an inch in 30 minutes. Any other rainfall was negligible. As always in my yard, I did have a few aphids attack the plants. I spray with Monterey Garden Insect Spray for the first 4-5 weeks and then just let it go. Some of the leaves get a little damage, but the buds are always fine. I would prefer not to spray anything once the buds are developed, even if nontoxic and OMRI certified. They took everything nature could throw at them.
I have to say I am very impressed with the results so far. As you can see I followed a pretty basic protocol. Nothing fancy.
I planned to harvest at 10 weeks or so but the glands will decide.
Pics are current. WIsh I had taken more along the way. I will update with harvest results and a smoke report when possible.
This is my first journal. Grown for 20 years or so. Started with Autos earlier this year. I welcome feedback on writeup and grow.
Please be kind.
