Chez Calix - Journey of a Junior grower

Overall - they are very friendly and happy plants t veg with huge fan leaves

Took very well to transplant and flowering.
Don’t take up alot of space. Did zero training An all thee lower branches shot directly up totop of canopy.

Just went to get a smell. They are 7-10 days behind the others . So the smell ISnt as strong. But a mix of a lower bud squeeze and stem Rub gave me a very LIGHT chemical / candy smell. Like a old scented car scented thing. . pretty hard to distinguish right now but it sort of like banany …lol like those old squishy banana Candy’s… Closest I could comeup with … Another week it will l change…
The g13 an skunk both are the stinkiest and most. Mature . Will return with smell report

I have the soil pretty much completly dry this time…a couple beakers of water divided among them all at the top
My spray bottles always Break.

Hey bud
How many PPM do you think I should be sitting at right now say middle of week 4?
I think my truncheon is saying about 12 to 1400 right now after this mix of nutrients

Should be good for week four. I would also watch the plants reaction to the dose, and see if they get any leaf deformities afterwards in case they didn’t appreciate it. Some plants are really picky.

Thanks

These girls have Been quite strong throughout all of flower.

Sayin that , I haven’t given full full Feeds. I actually haven’t kept track to much or been on a rigid schedule as I had been in the past.

E.g. 1 feed every 7 days regardless of the medium being dried out .

I’ve sort of been eyeballing and doing a top dressing of Gaia greens here and there between weeks and double dosing back to Back half strength and quarter strength feedings just to use up what I had mixed in the reservoir .

No signs of nute burn I can see

Tomorrow morning I’ll be doing a full feed.

And slow pour to make sure it’s not running off to sides of pot .

Loads of time left for these girls to form theyre buds.

@BeagleZ I just stole the cup trix from you lol
Clear cups would be nice for when they are small. Mini humidity Domes lol

Nice! Yeah the clear ones act as a little geeenhouse. I cut the lip off the top so it fits down into the planter cup. Makes a nice seal.
Maybe I should detail the tech in my thread eh?

Gave them all a feed today. Will keep an eye out for they’re reactions !

Who would have thought I would be this far after killing 20-30 seedlings dec-feb LOL

What a miracle. I know I’m not across the finish line yet.

Pray and spray seemed to have worked !

Can’t tell you what worked…

Definitely moving out of the laundry room helped + controlling the temperature. . . .plus a bit of living soil must of helped a few of them.

Soil / root zone was main issue…can’t wait until summer time.

Also can’t wait to sample my meds !!! Another 3 weeks for sure…just passing half way point

I’m glad I’ve got something to occupy my time and mind with…don’t know where i would be without this garden. Stress is killing me lately , and during the winter and off-work season , my confidence disappears. Nice to have something to feel proud about.

Hola!
Have not touched base with you in a while. I hope you are well.

I have reached a point of great distance . A tremendous journey which I am grateful and eager to share with you. I speak of you in high regards to my family and friends. Kindess , ever lasting gift !

I had many attempts at start of the new year. With just two being runts , but survivors and females.

A G13 and a Saginaw valley Skunk. The skUnk is showing some intense trichomes !

Can you believe that these two are now mid flower and absolutely killing it!?

I can tell which Is the skunk from the mean lean, and then I fimmed it

I kept going with help of @JoeCrowe & @Foreigner & many others.
It’s going to be a very nice harvest.

Zero PM. Which I encountered during my Previous last 3 grows.

. Now POOF gone since I grew Fromm seed and brought no clones in… 5 plants in one tent . Adequate circulation but same environment as first grow

I feel I will still do a Bud wash even though I haven’t had any pm…tough decision To make as I only did to rid the plants of pm or residues/ environmental debris .

And now

You can always try and wash a single bud to see if there are any debris in the water afterwards. Then decide if it’s worth it to do the whole batch.

They look nice.

Some will disagree but I wouldn’t do a wash unless I had a very good reason to do so👍

Right on!! I am fine with that thought.

I haven’t used any foliar spray or encountered any pests bugs or PM.

Will simplify things bein able to skip the wash.
