    Irie genetics??? Worth a try?

    I have a "tester" for his Fem cross of Heavy Duty Fruit x Afterglow in the tent. I'm a total fanboy for Rasta Jeff.

    I want to thank all of you that have been following along on this grow, but I am going to close it down and focus primarily on my THC Farmer Journal and my Grow Diaries Journal. Thanks again for any input and encouragement.

    Day 60 (SS) & Day 55 (DG) COVID is leaving my body. The worst is behind me (fingers crossed). Still no real hungery, and I am super tired most of the time. Onward and upward. Observations: Super Skunk should be renamed Honey Badger. From a stunted little twiglett to the largest "bush" I've...

    Quick Update: COVID is in the House I got hit with flu last Thursday. So, I have not been as attentive as I normally am. I've managed to get my environmental numbers and take a few pictures, but haven't had the gumption to process them. My fever is back down to about 100ºF. It stayed above...

    Thanks. I gave them non-stop love, sometimes more love than they needed. But, now I think I will be ok. I just took this picture and the Super Skunk has already recovered from the LST from this morning. That includes 4 hours of lights out from noon to 4.

    Cal/Mag Experiment So, I decided to mix a new batch of Ca/Mg, mixed with supplements that I like. I was curious how much each product increased the E.C. I should have included how much these ingredients affected the pH, because after I was mid-experiment I noticed the pH dropping dramatically...

    Day 54 (SS) & Day 49 (DG) I'm A Big Fat Liar Why am I a liar? Because I am pretty sure I have posted before that, I was going to stop at Topping & some light LST. Throw that claim out the window. I just went medieval on my Super Skunk. There were so many minor bud sites trying their best to...

    Day 48 (Super Skunk) & Day 43 (Double Grape) I let the AquaValve Chamber go dry. Put 1300 ml of a Recharge mix through the Coco. The main Reservoir Valves Are Still Off, while plants take up the over pour. Applied a little more LST to the main stem (you can see leaning more left (plant to...

    Originally Stunted, But ... How are They Doing Now? I did this before in the beginning of this grow when I stunted the heck out of these two plants. Here's a look at them now compared to other plants of the same (ish) age. Super Skunk is way behind. But, Double Grape is not as dramatically...

    Irie genetics??? Worth a try?

    I don't have a direct line to Irie, but I do know he is a fan of this Seed Bank: SeedsHereNow He starts every podcast off with an advert from them. Remember, his background is Regular Seeds, although he is slowly adding Fem Regs. So know that going in you will need a plan for males. His...

    Right on! He likes expressions like "vomit" and dirty baby diaper (that one may be mine 8) ) It will be from Rasta Jeff's genetics that I learn cloning next year. I only have Inspector Royal in house. That's the one I did as a Mystery Grow. It is off the charts at putting you in a relaxed...

    Day 42 & 37 More Spots Thursday Last Day of Week 6 Overall Still getting leaf issues. My guess is that they were in the process (but not as visible) when I discovered the others yesterday. Recap on my choices for corrections. From Before: Coco was super "hot" and very acidic (pH on...

    Flowering: Not really flowering yet. The pistils are very much on the move with Double Grape. However, the SS is just adding bio-mass. Last week I took pictures of what I thought were Super Skunk pistils, but now I am not so sure. Ages: Yes, those are the ages from germination. With...
