Indoor Dark Devil in soil

[Atulip]

Closing up week 8. Defol'd some earlier in the week. Added a perlite wick bed to the right side and removed the tote they were on top of. The canopy isn't even anymore but the right side is a more appropriate distance from the light compared to the left.

Day 50-56

Fed with Mega Crop part A 500ppm this week. Supercropped RO1 a bunch early in the week. Need to make sure next grow isn't nearly touching the lights lol.

Day 57-63

All caught up! There is a difference in the media… my eye is picking it up, I believe.

I've noticed the 2 Coast of Maine Stonington Blend ladies look the healthiest overall. The Roots Organic Lush 1 looks a bit rough, but I think it's from being too close to the lights, RO 2 looks nearly as healthy as the Coast of Maine girls. Fox Farm Happy Frog aren't as bad as RO1, but they are showing the most purple.

They could all benefit from different feeding schedules, instead of each getting the same thing. I am far too lazy for all that though lol. A better test of the soils would be sticking them in 10-15g instead of 3 gallons and trying for a water only grow.

I do think the wick bed makes a difference. Mainly for laziness. There were a few times I watered the 2's and they were quite dry, which maybe accounted for the lack of stretch for the non wick 3.

A couple of them look close but still not seeing amber.

Day 64-70

Finishing our 11th week. Finally spotting a few amber trichromes. Maybe 10%. Planning to harvest soon.


Day 71-77

Harvested her on Day 77 above soil. She's still drying. Humidity spiked a little yesterday but it's good now around 55%. Gave them a rough trim before hanging whole plant to dry.

Dried whole plant for about 7 days, jarred for a day and they're sitting at 59-61% humidity. A little lower than I was aiming for.

Most buds are loose and airy, I did not bother to trim these anymore. I'm counting this as total plant material rather than bud weight.

Dark Devil
Coast of Maine Stonington Blend 1 - 78g
Coast of Maine Stonington Blend 2 - 45g
Roots Organic Lush 1 - 48g
Roots Organic Lush 2 - 67g
Fox Farm Happy Frog 1 - 43g
Fox Farm Happy Frog 2 - 38g
Total - 319g

I ended up trimming more of the buds. We got about 4 ounces of decent buds, the rest is fluff/trim. The coast of maine soil was my favorite, seemed to do the best under the neglected conditions I gave. Happy Frog could definitely use more feeding throughout.

Here's our 77 days in 30 seconds
