Indoor New grow, Old + New Seeds, ft Optic Foliar

[bakEQuatorial]

Purple Punch 1 looks like she will flower earliest among the new girls. Doing very well. Still early so will wait and see how she progresses? All the new Seedstocker girls are at around Day 24 or so.

Purple Punch 2 is catching up in size and pretty much the largest among the 5 new Seedstocker gals. Amazing to say the least. The yellowish new growth is still there but is noticeably lessening too.

Gelato 41 looks to be smallest but I've a good feeling she's the type that catches up later lol. Good growth. Am happy with her.

Baby Cosmic Bomb is 15 days old. Already reaching edges of pot but height wise still a little short. Most likely due to the relatively stronger lights that her sisters need. Have high hopes for her.

UVA has already started.

Update time. Pics taken 20 minutes after lights on.

Starting with the older gals is Dedoverde Haze at around Day 50 or so. Stretch has stopped and she is standing at around 1.2m tall. A very big girl. Have to give her 4.5 to 5 liters of water every two days at least.

Auto Gorilla Bigfoot is no slouch. Probably around 1 meter tall herself. Around Day 47.

Think Mint Crack at Day 47 is entering flower too. A very big girl that has to fight for space with even bigger girls. She Also takes the longest to perk up after lights on. I love the green on her. Thats the best I can do with pics, as she's in a corner.

THC Bomb 1 has really grown into a beauty of a Plant. I just can't seem to take a good pic to save my life lol. Structure is so beautiful that i barely have to tuck any leaves. Give her a big Pot and she grows huge. Put her in a small one and she still delivers but flowers quickly. Look for THC Bomb 2 in 1 gallon further below. Pics below are THC Bomb 1. Can't wait to see how she flowers.

Group shot of the 4 plants taking up more than 4×4. Could be 4.5×4.5 as I hooked ratchet hangers to tent zippers and pulled them outwards, to create more space.

I moved a total of 5 plants to the 5×5. The solo cups are photos waiting to be transplanted to their respective pots. The flowering Autos will be their companions. I hope the timing all works out. Am counting on a couple of quick finishes. So far, looking good.

Auto Bomb 1 and 2. Can see two different phenos from them. One a little more Sativa while another slightly more Indica. Around Day 42-45 i think.

Auto Bomb 3 getting big in a 2 gallon pot. Requires frequent watering. Still not in full flower which is a little frustrating. Very bushy. Had to remove some leaves. Day 42 young.

Cookies is just beautiful. Thin finger leaves, not much obstruction of light. Only Day 45. Have not removed a single leave. No need to. Very beautiful structure imo. Love it!

THC Bomb 2 in 1 gallon is in full flower now. A very impressive size for a 1 gallon pot. Very versatile strain. Does well in big or small pots.

Berry Bomb in 1 gallon is also very impressive. Slightly behind THC Bomb 2 but getting there. Particularly impressive due to her funky growth earlier on.

Lastly, the younger gals.

Sticky Fingers 1 is the largest of the younger gals at a tender age of 31 days or so. Same for all the Seedstocker gals.

Sticky Fingers 2 is a little smaller and slower than 1 but looking good too.

Gelato 41 starting to show pre flowers early. Hopefully she won't get too big. Tent is starting to get crowded.

Purple Punch 1 started flowering early day 20s. I thought it was rather soon but I welcome the smaller size actually. She is also starting to show purple. Very excited!

Purple Punch 2 is larger and slightly behind 1. Hoping that the purple also shows on her.

Cosmic Bomb is only 22 days old or so. Starting her stretch. Looks like she will get big! I'm absolutely loving her growth!

Update time. This week saw me greatly neglect the early deficiency signs on two plants. Thing with deficiency is, it's much much easier to correct at early stages. Once it gets outta hand, it's very difficult to catch up, Plant loses leaves etc. Its really just a pain in the butt! I was too engrossed with my photo plants in solo cups to notice the early onset. Its really a drag cos I keep telling myself not to make this mistake again! And yet, I did! Lol

Let's get to it. Dedoverde Haze at around 58 days old started showing me a magnesium deficiency that progressed very fast. I gave a top dress and an epsom salt feed followed with a Compost tea. Looks somewhat better. Am gonna follow up with one more Compost tea as she just looks so hungry! If the second compost tea don't work, I'm gonna admit defeat and give her a Megacrop feed.

Budding still seems alright but am seeing some CA def on top of Mg. But she is the only one in the tent showing this.

Auto Gorilla Bigfoot is doing okay. She also showed the same deficiency much milder and looks to be doing just fine now. Frosting well too.

THC Bomb is also showing slight Mg deficiency in lower leaves. Hoping the second tea will stop any progression. However, She is growing beautifully. Probably around 1.2m as well. Will be slightly taller than Dedoverde Haze.

Thin Mint Crack is cruising along but is flowering slower. She takes the longest to perk up after lights on. Very bushy too but as long as she is healthy, I'm totally cool with it.

Group shot. Hope they look better next week!

Moving on to the girls in the 5×5

You'll notice Auto Bomb 3 suffering from the same deficiency. Seems that all big plants are showing this. I gotta take some preemptive measures I guess. She is recovering though. Pics showing Auto Bomb 3 followed by Auto Bomb 1 and 2 in same Pot.

Cookies is just beautiful! Full of dense frosty nugs!

Purple Punch 2 is smaller than my 1 gallon Pot plants but is very purple now. I have no complaints.

Purple Punch 1 is larger and making larger buds. But is not showing me any purple yet.

Due to space constraints, I had to move the 1 gallon pots of THC Bomb 2 and Berry Bomb to a corner of the room.

A shot of the photoperiod seedlings that made me neglect the deficiencies. Double jeopardy as I may have loved them too much as well lol!

Last to make an appearance are the younger gals.

Sticky Fingers 1 and 2 are pretty much the same. Just different size. Sticky Fingers 1 especially will be a big one. She will most likely be the tallest Plant among all. I gotta make sure I don't let her get the same deficiency as the other large plants.

This is both of them together.

Sticky Fingers 1

Sticky Fingers 2

Gelato 41 is flowering early. Looks pretty!

I just love this Cosmic Bomb. Only about 28 days old. Just beautiful!

Update time:

Dedoverde Haze at Day 64 or so. Looking like she has around 2 weeks left or less. Must have starved her too badly. I caved and gave her a good feed of Megacrop. She looks good and frosty too but may turn out slightly airy. Should still be good meds. If not, she'll get turned to hash.

Auto Gorilla Bigfoot at Day 61 or so. Looking extremely frosty. Looking forward to seeing the nugs she churns out.

THC Bomb 1 is recovering from some Mg deficiency but overall doing real good. Very dense nugs forming. Hope she don't get too fussy for her last few weeks.

Think Mint Crack at Day 61 is in the corner. Can't reach her for a nice pic or do much defoliation. Will just let her be and see what she gives me? So far so good besides some slow flowering action. She is really hating the heat but nothing much I can do.

The pics are really shitty so some equally shitty group shots below to make up for it:

On the other side of the tent are the 4 younger gals. They are doing excellent. I really cannot figure out why they are so much healthier than the gals on the other side? Everything is the same except for strain.

Some group shots first:

Sticky Fingers 1 and 2. Around Day 45 or so. Am not able to take individual shots that show them clearly so here are both of them together. They look almost identical except for size.

Gelato 41 is showing some dense buds already. Looks really good.

Cosmic Bomb is only at Day 37 or so but looks to be starting to flower. I really love this plant.

THC Bomb 2 and Berry Bomb still in the corner.

A shot of the entire 4×8 before we move to the 5×5.

 

[bakEQuatorial]

Shot of the 5×5:

First up are the Auto Bomb trio. 1 and 2 are doing their thing in a shared pot. Very distinctly different phenos for both.

Auto Bomb 3 got some Megacrop too and is recovering nicely. The leaves still show her scars though. I guess she is just too big for the 2gal pot to nourish.

Cookies is showing me the best buds so far. She is behind being shadowed a little by Purple Punch 2 so pics aren't easy. At Day 58 or so. Looking like another 2-3 weeks or so.

Purple Punch 1 at Day 45 or so.

No purple for Purple Punch 2 but she is much bigger.
