New Grower First time grower, critical purple and tangering dream

Day 36

I did some defoliating today on the CP and the bigger TD. I hope they take it as well as shorty, she took her trim very well. Felt like it was something I should do to expose more sites. These girls know when lights out is. They always let their leaves down a little an hour or so before turning them off, and then perk up after turning them back on. Have such a good time watching and learning them. I'm hoping shorty closes the gap on the other two soon. She is now at 16.5'' tall.

The CP is now at 25.5'' tall.

The other TD is 24'' tall.

I really like the look of them better after their trim. Will see how well they take it in a couple day.

Day 38

The two bigger plants have finally started to slow in their growth. Maybe because of the trim I gave them. They also have some leaves that are yellowing at the bottom. After scouring this site and reading this is normal, I feel good enough not to worry too much. Shorty is starting to grow a little faster now. Still can't wait to give her another trim. She stands at 18'' tall.

The other TD is now at 25.5''

The Critical purple is now at 26.5 and is the beast of the group.

Love the way they're looking. Keeping a close eye on those leaves though.

I've been wanting to start a journal since finding this site. Have found lots of great information here, and comb through the grow journals daily. Though my wife started us on this path with getting a medical license, I have taken up the care for the plants as she could not let go of the watering can. Honestly glad because I am enjoying the growing experience so far, just over 5 weeks in. So the grow is in a 60x60x80 tent, with 2000 watt full spectrum led(400 actual watt), in fox farm happy frog soil, using fox farm nutrients. Am growing 3 autos, 1 critical purple and 2 tangerine dream that sprouted Sept. 18.

Have been giving them grow big and big bloom every other feeding since the third week. At the beginning of the fifth week they got grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, calmag, and molasses. I keep the RH between 50 and 60 with a temp between 75 and 85 Fahrenheit. All feedings are ph'd to between 6.0 and 6.5. They seem to be doing great so far, with just some minor tip burn. They have all started flowering, and the only one that is questionable is one of the the tangerine dream my wife overwatered in the second week. She is small at 14.5'', but very bushy.

My plants didn't look half good as that, but their growing about to harvest all the TD/Cp's i have.. its ironic we are both growing the same strains. I have to do an early crop on one of the CP's she has ana wesome high.

You will have to let me know about the high on the TD. I told my wife what you said and she cant wait for the CP. Very exciting! Im still following along in your journal too. Let's me know what to expect.

Day 40

The ladies seem to be doing well, growing some everyday. The yellowing in the bottom leaves haven't spread, thank god. All seem to be doing great. I decided to give shorty another trim. She is 19.5'' tall now, and is gaining on the others. Here is a pic before trim.

And after the trim.

The CP is now 27.5'' tall.

The other TD is now 26.5'' tall.

They all seem to be flowering very well over the last week. I have been following a soil schedule from foxfarms, and over the last week it said to cut the grow big out and only use the big bloom and tiger bloom. That schedule calls for me to go back to the grow big in week 7 and 8, and cut it out in week 9. They are doing so good I don't know if I should as I have read veg nutes can stunt bud growth. Anyone have an opinion or experience on way or another?

I had some testers pulled up its a equally strong sativa.. very cerebral strong high, not as good as a sleeper.. its a really good creative, uplifting strain. Everytime I smoke a good quality sativa my mind rolls 100MPH I feel like "The Flash" when hes in the speedforce trying to think what to do. Sorry Im a nerd...

Forgot to mention, the smell on the TD is insane.. I imagine with a prolonged cure of 2 months she would be the best smelling/best tasting bud literally different from 30-40 strains i ever tried. It really has that "Tangy" flavor/smell. (MORE then when its growing)
