Fast Buds Pineapple Express
50/50 Coco/Perlite
Gonna use 2 & 3 gal airpots to see if there really is much difference in growth/ yield. I found in #103 that my 4- 2 gal pots to a space isn't gonna work. Probably gonna have to do just 2, maybe 3.
Mars Hydro ts600 veg
Mars Hydro ts1000 bloom (maybe an upgrade to sp250?)
Green Planet GP3 full regimen nutes

I say "vs" cause these girls started fightin me right from the git go. Opened the 5 pack and found 2 of the smallest seeds ever- for me. One didn't germ. The 2nd took for ever and when she finally popped, was all yellow and grungy lookin. Could be the seeds, could be I started em when we were going through some wide changes in temp and humidity. Getting things under control was a bit of a chore. I did end up getting a heat mat and that seems to have helped.
I also popped a gelato for another coffee can grow.. She came out of the ground but has pretty much stayed at one altitude.
Hopefully the rest of the grow will go smoothly

So much for the blog thing. Maybe I'll get a minute to figure out the right way, Anyhow--
 
Week 4 Day 21
3 of the girls are doing great. 1, #4, came out of the ground all buggerd up. Just giving her ph'd tap water and shes started growing and color seems to be getting better.
The leaves on #1 are ridiculous in size.
#2 I topped in "conventional manner as in consecutive branches--don't know if that makes sense.
#3 I topped and trimmed every other branch. This should give me a narrower plant that will fit better in my narrow space

Jan 19, Day 35
These girls are quite leggy. Already taller than the Grow 3 girls. Having to rearrange spaces as the GR3 girls just don't want to finish.

Wow! Work really did get in the way.
Week 11 and the girls are all growed up and getting chopped as soon as I get the rest of the Tangies trimmed. Damn hand trimmin is where you lose your money- for me anyway.
As with GR103, in late stages they developed either magnesium or manganese issues. One thing I found is I usually mix my nutes for 2-3 days and the ppm and ph changes from day to day. Don't know if that's an issue with just Green Planet but either way I need to pay more attention to it.
4 days ago I went trich checking and there was only a little ambering. 3 days later I checked and they are easily 20-30%. I was hoping I had a couple more weeks for the buds to fatten up since I had the water squared away. Afraid if I wait longer they will go to Indica and I don't want that.
#2 was the one that got hit hardest with the deficiency thing. She was the tallest at 36"
