First Grow
Summer 2021
Prior to the 80s, growers had two options-- cannabis indica and cannabis sativa. Starting in the Spring, they transition from their vegetative stage to their flowering stage as the days grow shorter in the Fall. Indoor growers have learned to imitate this growth cycle with light manipulation, but, like outdoor growers, they're limited to a slow growth cycle and single annual harvest. The discovery of a third species, cannabis ruderalis, brought new options. Discovered in Siberia in the early 80s, this new substrain fascinated Amsterdam breeders. It could automatically flower after just a few weeks. They went to work, crossing it with the existing indica and sativa strains to create a new autoflower type. Of course, more options mean more fun. These days many popular strains, such as this Grand Daddy Purple auto strain, are available as autoflower seeds.

Topsoil began to mold so I took a layer off and replaced with fresh coco. Just documenting progression at this point. Also took off LST aids.

I decided to stop the low stress staring because the girls were starting to look sad. They might not yield as much as they could have with the LST but the are looking much happier now.

Jackaler357 Hey what kind of soil are you using if you don’t mind me asking?
lambo Using Mother Earth coco and perlite. It’s pricy but worth it. I think it runs $50ish for a 50lbs bag.
lambo *correction $35ish

yungtrees Looks pretty cool. How much water/how often do they get water?
lambo The drip is very slow so I did a trial test with my normal watering can and it used half of it in two minutes. So I have it set to run for two minutes every 12 hours. So good so far. I also installed a Wize Cam so that I can check on the in real time while I’m gone. So good so far ☺️

IllusionalDazle If your using a hot soil blend wait 2/3 weeks before feeding! Less is better Don’t burn your plants
lambo Thanks for the heads up. Just using 1/3 recommended and gently introducing it.

lambo Germination to sprout took a total of 4 days. 2 1/2 days between water jar and paper towel, and 1 1/2 in soil. Constant light minus 12 hours during time away from home. Been adding water whenever coco begins to dry out. Lights are raised to max level and set to a 18/6 cycle. Temp sets between 75° & 82° Humidity fluctuates between 48% & 57%
