3 DP SC clones (same mother) in 1g Smart Pots under a 270w Blackstar Chrome are chilling in my cab right now alongside a Samsara El Alquimista fem. seed plant that looks a hell of a lot like Bubba Kush should look at her age. They've been in 12/12 for a bit over 2 weeks, but honestly they've been in almost 80*-87* temps due to the heat, so not much going on; that temp situation was remedied today, so the next 5 weeks they have some catch up to do. All plants are untopped but have been supercropped multiple time on the main stem per the teachings of Kyle Kushman. I'm growing in a mini SOG style in coco, drain to waste using 3mlMicro/6mlBloom in 2qt water, distributed evenly every day 1-2 hours after lights on. I also throw in about .25ml of Floralicious plus, really inspires side branching and makes the plants noticeably bushier.
My goal with the Alquimista is to get a nice stick of bud, 1oz would be ideal based on my space restrictions. She'll probably go to about 10% amber then come down and cure with leaves on for a week before manicure...try to get some residual ripening in the dark/cold/dry space.
The Strawberry Coughs are going to come down in a phased progression, with one at all milky, one at some amber, and one as late as it'll go without going too far. She'll go in jars for the long haul, so I'm thinking of taking her down under 60% and throwing in some humidor packets, Boveda or something similar. The Alquimista will be my "right now" smoke, so she'll probably get turned into some Qwiso and get jarred up right at proper dankness.
Next project is DJ Short's Azure Haze, Mr. Nice's Black Widow, and a selection of Mossy's autos (JEM, Purple AK, and Magic Dragon) grown together in a small-container coco SOG, choice males from the auto population being allowed to pollinate the photo females that will be kept. Mixed hash will be made and the resulting F1's will be messed around with as photos...just figured I'd drop a quick update.
