Hey Dank-D
I’ve been using the following for a little while now.
I still add about a 1/4 by volume of perlite, about the same amount coir coco and and also a good helping of worm castings.
Nutes are as follows.

Sorry, been a little lazy of late. Last 3 plants were cut and harvested a couple of weeks ago at 9 weeks old. Now drying and awaiting jarring.
A shot of the three at chop time
So I’ve given my self a couple of weeks off from the cab and growing and have decided this round will be some photo periods. The choice this round will de SSDD, Sunshine Day Dream. These are from one of the preservation runs early last year ( I think ).
6 seeds soaked for 24 hours, then into paper towels for another 24 hours and we had this. These were planted on the 30/04/20
And this morning 03/05/20 I have this, out of the soil at 2 days.
So now it begins again. Not sure if I’ll keep all 6, see how they develop. Hoping for a male so I can produce some more seed, but we’ll see.
Until next time.

Update 11/05/20
Now at 10 days from sprout. Coming along nicely and getting ready to pot up.
Staying nice and short for me at this stage, we’ll see how they go over the next week.
Until next week

SSDD, Sunshine Daydream
Up potted yesterday, all 6 doing well at this stage. Once they start to put on a bit of a growth spurt this week I’ll flip them into flower.
Until next time

1/6/20 update
Flipped over to 12/12 on the 24/5/20, 8 days ago
So starting with pot/plant number 1
This was topped at flip time and has shot up some shoots which I have had to top again to help control the height.
Number 2
This one went nuts, I’ve had to severely hack this one. Good possibility this one won’t survive when I get back.
Number 3
This one was also topped at flip and again this arvo.
Number 4
These next 3 are behaving them selfs a lot better
Number 5
And number 6
This one is a bit of a runt, but still going at this stage.
So I’m currently away from home with work for a week and a bit, so I’ll see how they are when I get back and make decisions about what to keep then.
Until next time

14 days from flipping into 12/12
I’m back from 8 days away for work, left the wife to water the plants mid way through by absence and ended with 1 fatality. Dragging 1 out and it caught the top and snapped off at soil height, never mind.
So 5 left at this stage with 2 showing female, other 3 not sure yet.
They have all had to have some trimming to fit again, as I was unable to do any other sort of training whilst I was away.
Starting with pot 1
Pot 2
Pot 3
Pot 5
Pot 6
Until next update

I’ve never seen such micro with photoperiods be interesting to see where this goes

Hey @invisible
I’ve only been using autos for the past year or so. Before that I’ve always kept a suitable photo period mum and grown from cuttings. It’s a bit harder from seed as you don’t know how each plant will grow. It’s always been a matter of finding a tight node spacing mum that doesn’t stretch too much and managing the heights with training.
If you look at some of my first post here you can see what I mean, got a couple of pics showing the small plants. I started of growing in a computer case, that’s interestingly small.
It can be done, you just have to know how the plants behave. I’ll probably try revenging the most promising plant/s from this grow.

Weekly update time 14/06/20
20 days from flipping to 12/12
So I have 3 confirmed males and 2 females
Starting with pot 1
A male who is behaving it’s self growth wise and not reaching for the sky’s too much. A little slower developing then the others.
Next up pot 2
Another male, this one is very much reaching as I’ve had to flop the tops over to try and control height. He is developing his ball sacks nicely tho.
Next is pot 3
Another male, a little flopping needed as well but is otherwise he having him self. His balls are developing nicely.
Now we come to pot 5, female and she is going nuts. I’ve had to resort to some serious bondage for this girl, tie her down left, right and center.
She is showing nice development in her flowers.
And lastly pot 6
Also a girl but she is a week behind in flower development, probably due to my heavy cut back of her foliage a week ago.
So I will collect pollen from the 3 males and selectively dust some onto some of the buds of the 2 girls, just to collect a ‘few’ more seeds.
I’m thinking that I may try and reveg at least 1 if not both of the girls and try to produce a mum or 2. I’ll see how they produce and what they smoke like and make my decision then.
Until next time

Looking good. You going to do some seeds in this run?
That’s the plan, back up with a few seeds for future use etc.

Pot number 6
A little behind the other girl but coming along.
And pot number 5
This ones coming along nicely with bud development.
And some random shots of the boys. They are starting to shed some pollen, collected a little this morning and dusted a couple of the buds. I’ll do this for the next couple of days to make a couple of extra seeds for latter.
I’m thinking of letting the boys go for another week or so and then I’ll cull them. Might plant a couple of autos to replace the space left after getting rid of them. I’ll collect as much pollen as I can first tho and store it for latter use.
Until next time

Pot/plant 6
So I haven’t been as careful as I thought with the manual pollination and have had some stray pollen spread. Never mind, I’ll just end up with more seeds than I had originally wanted.
A couple of pics showing some seeds starting to develop
I’ve culled the males so it’s currently 1 plant to each chamber from here until finish
Plant/pot 5
And a couple of close ups
By her self in the flower chamber
I’ve also chucked in 3 more dark spark seeds into water for an over night soak. By the time these are starting to really develop it’ll be time to harvest the SSDD girls.
Until next update

So I planted these 3 this morning. Dark Sparks from my own seeds, these are from some of the recent grows that I tried out the frozen pollen on.
These will slot in under the SSDD that are growing now.

Looking good mate.
I’ve had no luck with reversing using CS

Hey mate
Are you making your own CS?? If you are is it strong enough?? If you have a laser pointer, shine it through the solution and you should see the beam through the solution, if not it’s not strong enough.
