New Grower Round Two - Continuing The Journey

What causes your water to have a naturally high oxygen content?

Not exactly positive except that its a private water source I could take a guess and say its due to the way the water is collected but I have to ask. Never really thought of asking, I probably should ask.

That 3 gallon behind it is waiting to go! Just need to water it thoroughly before I drop the GC bean.
I'm debating doing a 1 gallon double grape as an experiment to see just how they get in a 1 gallon pot. I got 11 double grape in total (I think they miscounted or they were being uber cool).
I only halfassed the Afghani so it died off. And I gotta get a few more grows down too, but I figure if I get a male, I'll save the pollen. I actually don't use any nutrients besides Jobes organic fertilizer spikes. They come in a 50 pack. 8 of them is the magic number for a to of decay. Granted its no where near what some others are growing but its organic. My water naturally has a high oxygen content so I would imagine others might add air. Might be a question four some others. I did get some ffof today but that's for experimenting with after the grape crinkle grow. I start adding the Jobes spikes about 2weeks after the seed pops and place 4 at the outer edge and 4 in toward the plant so it gets nutes at different intervals in root development . with my GC I plan to try adding more to see what happens . worse comes to worse I have to dig them out and flush the plant.

OK I have read enough threads to decide and buy an air pump and airstone to pump up the 02 levels in the water I intend to feed,i think them 1litre airports look super cute ,smaller pot smaller plant as a general rule but hell all good fun,don't think ille have everything in place to weekend can't wait

Right on, can't go wrong there because it will all be good for growing DWC. I'm just in such debate if I want to be growing a double grape in such a small pot, I think it would be a disservice to the genetics. Plus the crinkle drop is about to happen, and there is the two week window for the crinkle, I just am super stoked and going to try to round up everyone to give a final ye or nay today. Here's how the toof decay is doing. She's coming along nicely and just about a month in she is where I want her to be. Not as big as some mother people's but I'm proud that she's already twice as big as my first plant. I'm hoping for 1.5-2 ounces once dried and I might make that at this rate.

Wow! She looks amaaazing! Great job!!!

What size pot is she in?

She is in a 3 gallon air pot, only nuts being used are Jobes organic spikes (4-4-4) and she's doing great with it. Seems like the toof decay really is loving those Jobes spikes. Hoping it works for the grape crinkle grow. I'll post a photo or two in a bit. I'll get some good smoke from her that's for sure.

Hey miss they are looking good I'm ready for organic to move a lot slower sadly I won't be in the grape crinkle grow I lost both my seedings I'm not having great luck one made it though but not grape and I know it's me and not the seeds I've did something wrong I'm just trying to back track to see what I did different and sadly I was keeping a journal on my new tablet it crashed. 3\4 way thru grow so I can't remember crap from first grow I am going to start a journal on the girl I got if she holds on I will be watching here and there best of luck with all your girls if I had put up a journal I'd have notes

Sorry to burst about the loss! I lost a good few my first time around, probably 7-10 seedlings in all so don't feel bad. Once you get it down, it starts to become easier. Keep positive and I'm sure your baby that's left will thrive! Will you be keeping a journal for this grow?

Day 35 (or day 32 depending on how you count)
Did a big watering on her to try and supercharge the soil more with the Jobes spikes since I saw one didn't start to break down, she's loving it. Grew an inch overnight from that. The tips are growing super dark green and looks like she's loving life and wants to show off to her little cousin the grape crinkle.
Frost just starting to develop

Secondary colas are still below the main cola

Can't quite yet see the secondary colas from the top

A couple of budsites and colas

Foliage is uneven but that might be because of her position, I forgot to rotate her one day after she got moved to the back of the tent

Over all I'm very please this time around

 

[SouthCarolinaYardDog]

She sure looks good for using those sticks you never know what will work till you try do you have something to use for bloom or just going with stick either way she's beautiful!
