Day: 106
Trimmed them up and put them in jars for the cure. Ended up with a little over 310 grams of buds and 4 quart jars of trim. Did not weigh that out. Lowest producer was the mendo breath and the most was the Sundae driver.

tnkrumpets If this was really your first grow, damn! Very nice work, how’s it smoke?
Opgrows Really was. Now I’m on my 3rd grow and have chosen to document on a notepad since I don’t need so many pics for reference anymore. They all smoke amazing! I still have some left of all 4 strains and just pressed some of the sundae driver into rosin this morning. Tasty, smooth, and very potent.

JaOne316 Whats it cost you a month to run all three lights? Im thinking of adding a second light in my tent..
Opgrows JaOne316 I'm not exactly sure, but my guestimate is around 60 bucks cuz my entire set up runs me around 120 bucks additional a month on my bill. But that is 2 tents and 4 lights these 3 LEDs, and 1 T5 for now in the second tent. Plus humidifiers, fans, extractors, and 1 AC unit.
Opgrows It should get much better when it's not summer, now that I'm on 12/12. These summer months stupid hot.
Day: 50
Day 3 into flowering. Gave full week 1 flower nutes. Coming back great from the darn Neem oil.

tnkrumpets Looking great man! Am seeing very small color changes that might be indicative of a PH or nutrient deficiency. I would do a PH’d runoff check to see if your over 1000ppm or outside of normal PH range. But dude for a first grow that’s amazing lol you must have had help
Opgrows Tnk - thanks man! I have upped the nutes tell me what you think on more recent pics. I have just don't a lot of research and luckily this app has been awesome! So many helpful people on here.
Day: 49
Neem oil really messed up certain leafs but the defoliation is great and new growth is coming great. Flushed last 2 waterings with calmag and last watering added Dr repair. 1st full day after 48 hours of darkness

Bounced back alright. Gave them 6 hours rest today and will be switching for 48 hours of darkness tomorrow at 6 am. Hooked up AC unit now and will start adding additional co2 Likley next week.

Watered all 4 plants with just calmag. I defoliated and lollipopped to get them into flower this weekend. Will give them some recovery time then it's time for flower!

Day: 41
Watered all plants today at 600 ppm. I also put out some gnat traps cuz i saw a few flying around down there Also monster cropped/pinched some top nodes down to keep giving the mendo some time to even out and catch up. Trying to fill in the canopy at this level as much as possible before I flip them
5 years ago
PresaCanario I think it’s a good time to flip, your scrog should be filled evenly with the stretch.
Opgrows Presa my bad on the late response! I ended up thinning everything out and giving a few more days to come back before flip but we are into flower now!
Day: 40
Nothing today just found a few gnats so I ordered some neem oil and some sticky things that will attract them and keep them there.

Sunday driver already almost catching up with to the net. Strongest rebound. Followed by the purple punch and lemon skunk. Mendo breath still lagging behind.

Day: 30
Moved them into more space. Moved up the net and will give them time to grow into it while they come back from the defoliation/lollipop Will continue to veg 2-3 more weeks depending on how they react and grow. They all need more calmag so I will be adding that to the all feedings. Added soil to all pots. Temps are staying nice and cool with this new tent. Clean airflow up top that and sealed all the tent. Temps staying right at 75.

PresaCanario Plants are looking good!! Although scrogging increases yield when it’d done properly. Growing multiple strains for the first time under 1 scrog can be challenging, it is difficult to remove a plant if needed, (sick or hermaphrodite..) Harvesting could be difficult too, because chances are 4 different strains will all not ripen at the same time. I’m not saying it won’t work, it’s just harder on the grower.
Opgrows Presacanario thanks you for input. I have already been dealing with certain challenges and will continue to take them head on. Canopy on 3 plants is pretty even but the 1 mendo breath is lagging behind. I don’t think it’s the strain it had too much wind on it and it was stressing. I’m hoping it rebounds strong so I can’t keep it as consistent as possible.
Day: 30
Watered all plants with water treated with calmag and super thrive. Will be feeding next time to all but the purple punch. The runoff is still too dark on that one.

Day: 28
Watered all plants with plain water Defoliated all plants to help with light penetration. No topping or fimming Some leaves seemed to be tacoing a little so I raised the lights and made sure temps were fine No direct air on the plants just some air movement all around the tent

Day: 25
Watered and gave great white to the lemons skunk and purple punch Sunday driver did not receive any great white Mendo breath no watering not watered today All 3 were watered with 600 ppms Ph was 6.0 Temp and humidity keep from 76.5-82 it’s been a little watmer. Keeping humidity down between 55-65rh Raised fans a bit higher and turned them up to try and keep the tent a little cooler. Only 1 fan on low is pushed air between them to keep them slightly moving Canopy is evening out nice

All plants are looking great! Coming back strong from the defoliation Will be watering the mendo breath today. She doesn’t seem as thirsty as the other plants. Watered at 500 ppm

Gocolts18 Are you trying to do a SCROG?
Naishville Make sure your ph is right when feeding an make sure you have a schedule feed at same time water at same time.
Gocolts18 It's best to water when they need it, a set schedule is hard to maintain. It will be within a day or two this early, but I recommend getting a soil tester to read the soil moisture.

7-7 Reduced fan speed of to make sure the air movement is softer. Seem to be bouncing back great from the over nutes. Next feeding will likely be Tuesday - with nutes at 500 ppm Will also be adding killer roots to next feeding

JaOne316 Aha they look much better!
Day: 17
Sunday driver, mendo breath, and lemon skunk were all turned around to even out light distribution
5 years ago
JaOne316 Might need cal-mag?...might be the ph out of wack?...maybe fan blowing to hard?
Opgrows I first thought it was cal mag deficiencies and I did a full nute feeding but the ppm was too high. The discoloration from the cal mag deficiencies seems to be fixed but the feeding caused some burn. I don’t think it’s ph since I do test every time. I did a normal watering about 2 days ago and will keep you posted on the next feeding results. Please keep sharing insight. Appreciate your suggestions.
Opgrows One more question, What are the signs to look out for when it comes to too much fan/air movement? A few leaves do seem to have a few tears but I think it was the proximity to the fan. I’m not sure what too look out for to diagnose potential fan/air movement issues.

Watered all plans due to the lemon skunk and Sunday driver having some minor nute burn. I will definitely be feeding at 500 ppm max next and keeping it steady there. Growth is looking great but the added light had kept temps around 80 degrees. Ranging from 78-82 Added an extra fan but growth is looking strong

Day: 14
Temp issues with new light. Today got as warm as 83 and need to really make sure my temps and humidity are In check I’m confident that this most recent yellowing of the tips is from nute burn but I raised the lights a bit and will make sure all my PH is on point 5.9-6.1

Purple punch Top of soil getting dry now will likely water full set of nutrients tomorrow. Nothing really from the leaves seems to have taken the precious nutrients great. Will likely cut it still by 25% since little nutrients have done wonders with her. Plan on topping tops in about 2 days again depending on growth

Lemon skunk Will be topping 2 nodes Seems to have taken previous topping and watering great No burn tips from over nutes and the lack of cal mag seems to be fixed with new leafs 5.75 inches is the top node

All 4 plants Transplanted all and used great white for roots Sunday driver Watered- back left full treatment of nutes - concluded it was lacking cal mag so I did a full run of nutes this one was more affected and drier so I did a full watering Fimmed lead stem Lemon skunk Same with front left lemon skunk but less water - looked like some cal mag deficiencies so I gave it about half watering with full nutes Topped lead stem Purple punch - no watering Mendo breath - no watering
