Strain: Clover Shake
(Shamrock cake × ice cream cake)
Journal in progress will soon be filled with plant info. There are 10 seeds, half of which are up less than 24 hrs after going into soil.
Follow me on Instagram @ swamplillys for daily photos of this and all my current strains!
Feeding Schedule
this is a schedule I have worked out over the years, and it works so well for all my plants that i really dont alter it much. Any time i do alter it, it will be noted in the journal itself. Any pests, illnesses, and their treatments, will be recorded there as well. Otherwise, assume they are on this schedule.
WK 1- babies
The pbs area all doing wonderfully right now. Days 3-4, and 100% germination rate! Out of 6, 4 were up within 36 hrs. So 6 of the cups you see are clover shake. It's a big pain to get individual photos at this age. They all look identical, except for the ones that are younger. But once they get bigger i will group them up and get better photos.
They are on typical 18/6 cycle, and are sittin pretty about 28" under a viparspectra full spec. LED. Ive planted all the seedlings in sunny mix #4, in individual solo cups.
They will be given the cal-mag (CaliMag), Recharge (Real Growers,microbes), and compost tea (Planet Earth) every feed until days 8-12, when we start increasing things. (Check feed sched. Page for measurements)
There is a tiny bit of stretch in some seedlings, buti had a fan die on me, and it took a few hrs to get things replaced. They grow ridiculously fast at this age. Everything is fine & under control now, and they will be like nothing happened in a few days.
wk 2 veg
So There has been a bit of a culling. There are now only 6 clover shake babies. Even though i culled some, they were all perfectly viable. I am working with limits, though, and have to choose a certain # of plants. So I chose the best 6. They are all still pretty well alike, from strain to strain. There are no discernable differences yet, so i am still taking one group photo. As soon as they get a bit bigger and start to get some personality I will start giving them their own photos. But for now, here is what I have been up to with them for the past few:
So far they are doing great. They get their Calmag, trinity recharge feed once more during this time, and they are also going from 1/8 to 1/3 strength Sensi Grow + B-52 (both one feed)
After that, theyll get a mild dose of Protekt with their Sensi Grow.. On off days I give them calmag and filtered water. They are drinking nice and steady. No problems so far. Will give a more detailed update when there is more to give.
Here is their photo for the week.
Enjoy, Y'all!

Day 23 Veg
There are now 6 of these pretty girls. One in the photos had to go for space reasons. Nothing wrong with her.
They have all been topped now, and after these photos were taken they were transplanted into 2gal pots .
-They are getting 1-2feeds per wk of Sensi Grow, b-52, and protekt silica.
-Then on off days they are getting a calmag, Foliage Pro, Recharge, mycos, and compost tea. They are under my Vipar VB2000 quantum board for the duration of their veg cycle.
Day 40 Veg
You can see a clwa tree difference in this strain. Not sure yet if it phenotype, or sex, but These girls/boys are looking lush and lovely right now. Im leaning more towards sex due to certain factors in the grow. They were repotted into 1.6 gal. Soilless containers, and are under one of my new vipar boards. They are growing fast at this point and in a couple of weeks ill be able to start shifting them to flower. It's hard to tell who's who yet, but im starting to get an idea. You can clearly see that 3 of them look WILDLY different from the other, and some are beautiful bushes, and some skinny, lanky flops with large, crumple-fingered leaves. Just after these photos, matter of fact, the ugliest two were culled. So there are nlw actually only 4 clover shake. If those 2 werent males, they werent anything i wanted to waste time on
Their feed is staying the same for now- every week they get Sensi Grow @ full strength, w/ B-52, Diamond Nectar, and Protekt silica. Then they get a Recharge, myco tea, sugars, and azos feed. On off days its H20 w/ cal-mag buffer. They are loving every bit of it, and stay wanting fed. Here are some photos of the lovely babies . I couldnt include all of them due to size restrictions, so if you want to see all of them head on over to my Instagram @swamplillys and follow there too for near daily photos, q&a, and other fun stuff! Here they are: this is pheno/sex 1:

Those 2 are gone now. We kept this 1
And here is pheno/sex 2:
As always,friendly questions are welcome! If youre curious about the method of feed, the 1st page is always dedicated to a feed chart. Every plant is different, so the chart isnt all-inclusive, but is a general guideline of what im doing on a feed to feed basis. Most questions are answered there
