Seedstockers Battle 2nd Leg
Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 7
All looking fine and dandy considering she was born with half a leaf missing, it hasn't slowed her growth at all thankfully. I started her on a light nute feed at day 4 and lowered the light to around 15in same time, there's a slight bit of cupping on leaves but apart from that all good

Seedstockers G.O.T.Y 2nd leg
Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 14 (above ground)
I'm now feeding, Micro 0.6ml/l Grow 0.9ml/l Bloom 0.3ml/l and Cal/Mag 0.5ml/l ph'd to around 5.8ish and lowered the light to around 13in and so far so good

Week Three Update

Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 21 (above ground)
Only changes this week are I topped her at the 4th node at day 16 and did a little leaf tucking everything else is pretty much the same apart from she's drinking a little more

Week 4 Update:

Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 28
No changes to report, looking green and healthy still and still on the same feed as she was from week 1 but drinking a lot more now temp has been around 31c and rh 75% and I try to keep the light around 12in from canopy

Also her first pistils are beginning to appear

Week 5 Update
Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 35

Only changes are I swapped the mh for the hps and changed feed to pre flower, I'll change feed to flower from next feed, I've also started to remove a couple of fan leaves here and there and the temp has been up and down, from 30c to 35c and rh around 75%ish

Week 6 Update
Day 42
No changes just removed a few fan leaves here and there and kept her fed

Week 7 Update

Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 49
Starting to fill out quite well now, well the top half is there's bugger all on the bottom Temp in tent is beginning to get quite high at 34c now the weather is getting better and the rh up around 75%ish

Beginning to get a little frosty but not any smell as yet

Week 8 Update

Day 56
Starting to fill out quite nicely, still not a lot of frost though and no smell either temp has been getting high in the tent, up to 36c at times

and the rh between 65% and 85%

Week 9 Update
Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 63
No changes to report, temp has been more stable at around 34c and the rh between 70% and 85% had a few better pics but too large to upload

Update Week 10

Thin Mint Crack Auto
Day 70
Not looking too bad, slight foxtailing probably due to light being too close, so I had to remove the ratchet hangers and just tied the reflector to the hanging bar which gave me another few inches so hopefully she'll be ok now Temp is still high, it's been around 36c to 38.8c for the last few days Still no smell though and not as frosty as my other plants, hopefully she's gonna be strong still, fingers crossed

Nothing wrong with that I'm still waiting for 1 to finish before I can start the next smorgasbord of goodies I'm hoping no more than a week but we'll see. Have fun and grow big

 

[bakEQuatorial]

So when the clock strikes 12am on the 17th, I'm gonna drop the beans to soak. Local time! Any objections? Any codes?

Will drop 2 beans and send one of them to defend my LED goty title LOL! That is, assuming I get them both to germ. My way of saying Mucho Gracias to Mischa cos only Seedstockers gave me tracking info! Did I mention I love the tshirt? ROFL..

I believe the code will be released on the 17th and yes u did mention u like the t shirt

Yes Mugwamp is right, code on the 17th so no one is naughty and germs early :smoking:
All the info is written down (flash card works well, paper what have you) and picture is taken of that with your seeds and germ method (paper towel, direct seed etc.)
Equatorial, you staying up late or getting up early? It's like a kid at Christmas, great to see the enthusiasm
And you can use the same plant in multiple battles so no need to have one for each, saves room! (you can grow as many as ya like tho :smoking

Kit List

Tent: Bud Box Pro white 1m x 1m

Light: Grow Northern Telos 0010 300w LED

Medium: 70% Canna Coco Pro 30% Perlite, lined with clay pebbles

Pots: 15 litre circular fabric

Air Movement: RAM Exhaust and Filter (I'll have to check the specs - sorry) with 2 x RAM Clip on desk fans

1 x RAM humidifier (with a dehumidifier to be added later)

Nutes: Great White, GH Trio Series, Plant Magic Magne-Cal, Earth Juice Sugar Peak, and the rest... we'll see. I'll add some sort of additive when the time comes, probably Big Bud or something along those lines.

I still can't decide between Super Skunk or Fruit Cake but leaning toward the SS as I've seen people reporting the FC to be very unstable. Shame as I was really looking forward to it but maybe not the wisest choice for my first battle.

Itching to get em going!

Germination pic:

Germing a Super Skunk in Root Riot cube, pre-soaked 24hrs.
Never used these before but I guess they'll do the trick...

Week Three Update:

DAY 18

Transplanted the Super Skunk today into pre-charged coco and perlite mix (around 80/20)

Looks a little hungry but the feed was also upped today so that shouldn't be much of an issue. I ran out of Great White which i like to use in transplanting but hopefully I can just add it to the feed moving forwards and that'll help.

Roots looked good, nice healthy ball forming.

Week 4 Super Skunk update - Day 26

Switched up the nutes for full Shogun coco line. Have been feeding at 50% but she still looks a little hungry still so I've upped it to about 80% now.

Bent her right over a few days ago. Took her down pretty hard but she seems OK with it and those side lowers are beginning to reach to a similar height to the main. Looks kinda ugly with all the tucking and that big ol' bend but I think I can pretty her up a bit as she stretches. Loving the big indica leaves but could do with a little more spacing. In all honesty I'd have been happy to just let her grow naturally but it seemed a bit boring so over she went!

Week 5 Update
DAY 32

Training seems to have paid off on the Super Skunk and she's developed a nice flat top from which I hope a bounty of stinky flowers will emerge.

I am loving these Shogun nutes. The leaves look very healthy and no signs of def although I've fed a touch high by the look of it so I'll ease back about 10% or so. It's nothing major so easily sorted. Stems are nice and thick, nothing to complain about at all on this one.

I've just given her the first dose of Mammoth P. I know it should have been done earlier but I just ordered it as a little payday treat for myself.

Week 6 Update

SeedStockers Super Skunk "auto" day 42.

Been running nutes pretty low but still getting a touch of burn now, I'll dial back for the next few and see how she responds.

She's a huge plant, lots of potential bud sites etc etc. There's one glaring issue though... no buds! Not even a hint of a bud in fact, just a few pistils here and there, nothing more than you'd expect to see in late veg on a photo.

Which leads me to believe that this is probably not an auto...

It's a shame, she was shaping up well.

What do you guys reckon? Definitely not an auto or should give it until day 50 to call it? Not really sure if it's worth growing out under 12/12 as the other plants will be effected and if I were to grow a photo, it wouldn't have been this strain.

Thanks NiceOption
Super Skunk looks like a great choice, I got a friend growing them outdoors this year as they are very hardy. I'm going to grow the FC as I can switch them to 12/12 in another tent if I have to. But I'll probably pick the Critical or Sticky Fingers for the battle gal just in case (unless I get a super nice FC that outperforms the others).

BTW anyone needing seeds everything is 50% off for 420 on the Seedstockers website!

Thank you St. Tom

Btw you are all free to change you kit list, add anything you are NOT locked into it! I will be changing things all the time. If you could just please edit the info into your update post or let me know so I can do so.
The reason I am asking is it helps vendors and other growers both to see what you used in your grow, all neat and tidy and there.
