They dried waaaaay too fast. I took a day or two away from the tent and this happened. I guess too hot and dry. Jarred everything with them a still on and put a moisture pack in. Both smacked us when we tried them, but still very wet and green. They need more time to cure. Also, there’s a big difference in look. Tia has darker brownish triches and Tamara is shining with the clear and white triches

Cut them down last night. I only pulled off what was dead. Then I made a bath of filtered water with 5 tbsn hydrogen peroxide in a pan and washed them, then rinsed them in RO water.

TIA harvest day dump! She grew beautifully. I feel she’s just about at the end of her life. The top colas are turning amber and ripe enough for me to pick but the lower buds are still aging. I’m going to chop anyway as I’m moving to hydro and it’s about the time anyway.

TAMARA harvest dump! This bitch was a head ache, but she pulled through for the most part. She ended up producing more triches than I thought she would. She’s still got a lot of clear and not much amber at all but I’m going to harvest anyway. I can’t see myself putting in the work to water for another two weeks while all these leaves die off. She’s at the end of her life and still wants to stack. Snip snip

Watered yesterday/this morning with just water and molasses using the dunk method again. I microscoped the triches and we look good. Tia needs a little more amber for my preference and Tamara needs more time. Both have necrosis of leaves happening, but Tias looks healthier and natural. Tamara looks like she has something off still, but it’s too late to try anything so fuck it we just gonna have some weird buds. But she is frosty so we’ll see what it do.

Watered today with a gallon and a half of kelp, recharge and molasses. Seems like they have another two weeks maybe? At least Tia seems to be thriving. Maybe her rust spots are telling me calmag, but I haven’t really done anything about it. I added salt to Tamara last week and she has less rust spots, and her yellowing seems to have slowed, but she’s still very delayed and is ending her life cycle according to her internal schedule, fucking autos 😂

Watered two days ago using the dunk method since I didn’t do the third plant with them. Ph water and a little molasses. The differences just continue to separate further and further. Now Tamara is finally showing a little frost, but she’s still not growing at the same rate.

Tia is doing a wonderful job. Tamara is a little wonky… she’s fading at the bottom and isn’t budding much. Also, not much frost at all. Weird since they have the same everything aside from the recent feeding for Tamara. I was told to up the lights and this is what was causing her to fade or lag? I upped the power to 90% and they’re now sitting around 830 par.

Watered yesterday with 15ml help, molasses, and recharge in 2.5 gal. Tia is looking fantastic and Tamara is looking like she needs nitrogen? I topped both with worm castings and gave Tamara a pinch of all purpose, bloom, and Epsom salt.

Watered two days ago with 15ml kelp and recharge. They loved it! Showing frost and loving the higher par! 70% lights now

Watered two days ago with recharge, molasses, and upped the kelp from 1ml to 10ml in the 2.5 gallons phed. I believe there crowning! I removed a bottom shoot that wasn’t looking promising from the bottom of Tia and continued to tuck leaves to shed light on the lower shoots. Tamara may have been stressed on her top stem from the ties, those leaves have more texture than the rest and stopped reaching. I loosened it to bring her up with the rest of the canopy. I also raised them closer to the light for higher par. From about 330 to 440 par now. Lights at about 60% still. I HAVE NOT USED A HUMIDIFIER SINCE SEEDLING! I removed the domes when they were ready and just stopped refilling it. It stays around 48-54% rh and they seem happy.

Checked on the girls and they’re loving the adjustments and training. Tia however started to snap her stem in two diff places! The stump and towards to top neck. I expected that though since I was kind of impatient and had extreme tension on the ties. Tia also has a few spots on the lower leaves. Both are shaping well and the shoots are stretching. Making adjustments where needed and trying to tuck more than defoliate.

Watered yesterday with 2ml kelp and myco to 2 gal after I top dressed with worm castings, FFOf, 2tbsp all purpose and 2tbsp bloom. Tia has some coloration issues and spotting, not sure why. Tamara is loving her shape and the lower shoots are really stretching. I also boosted the lighting a little, turned both on at 60% about 18” away from canopy

Guess who decided to show some hairs! Both of them!

Watered yesterday with a little molasses, kelp, and neem oil for all of these fungus gnats. Started some LST and removed the lower shoots and leaves. I’m going for a less is more tactic this time and being more selective in what I want to flower.

They seemed really happy today and looked like they exploded! Still misting the domes, keeping the heat 75-80, and opening the air holes fully. It seems like they really like they’re environment. Raised par from about 180 to 270.

Watered them two days ago. First full watering. I added some myco, some kelp concentrate, and amended the soil with silica as I don’t think I used it in mixing the soil. The watering method disrupted the soil a lot so I did some remodeling and supported the stem and hid the exposed roots. Note: Tamera has been growing slower and I just noticed her second trier leaves are only one point leaves, not three. Was she stressed? Did I leave them to dry too long and not provide enough water?

Still moving along. Watered her yesterday and top dressed with worm castings I had left over from another project. They dropped immediately, most likely bounced back though. Tia is Deff growing stronger! I wonder if it’s because her humidity done contained the humidity better

We have our first true leaves! This starting process is moving pretty fast and I’m moving slow. They were already showing their cotolydons in germination. Tia is already lengthy and Tamara is coming along fine. I planted both just on the top of the soil and watered with ph water with myco sprinkled. Humidity dome and lights are on 25% low

Germinating with a solution of 1 Tbsp hydrogen peroxide to 1 cup of water overnight then transfer to a paper towel in the morning. I ended up leaving it in the water for 24hrs then transfer to paper towel
