23 'til Infinity- Mr.DS's grow journal

Hello everyone and welcome! I am Mr.DS-420 and this will be my ongoing/perpetual grow journal. This is my second indoor grow and my first time growing since 2021. I am no pro, just a novice trying to grow some good smoke!

As soon as my state legalized in 2021, I bought a 3x3 tent and pumped out a single harvest. Due to lack of space, I had to pack up my tent. Fast-forward a bit to 2023, I've purchased my own home with a adequate space for growing!

I am currently running Krippy Kush by Purple Caper seeds, they are feminized photo periods.

Seeds were germinated in paper towels then started in a 50/50 mix of Fox Farms light warrior and Roots Organic original blend. They were then switched to Build A Soil 3.0 after their first transplant. I will be feeding them solely with Roots Organic dry amendments.

Flowering tent setup:
A/C Infinity 4x4 tent

6" A/C Infinity exhaust
2x oscillating fans
6" fresh air intake

Veg tent setup:
A/C Infinity 3x3 tent
Mars Hydro FC-3000 LED light
4" A/C Infinity exhaust
2x oscillating fans
4" fresh air intake

Seedling/clone tent setup(haven't assembled yet):
Mars Hydro 2x2
Mars ts600 LED

I germinated the whole pack of Krippy Kush. It was a 5 pack containing 6 seeds. All 6 popped, this was 7/4/23.

A week later, 7/11/23

7/19/23, we've got some good girls and some freaky girls The 7th girl is a DNA genetics OG #18.

7/26/23 Transplanted the ladies into 3g fabric pots. The 2 that remain in solo cups, were slow growing mutants that I experimentally topped after the first node. The older/bushier plant is a freebie Black Domina.

8/1/23
The ladies are moving right along. I ended up giving the 2 mutants away to a friend. Left side is all Krippy. Right side from top to bottom: Domina, Krippy, og#18

8/15/23 transplanted the Krippy Kush into 7g pots and moved them into my 4x4

8/28/23
First day of 12/12
Just letting them grow naturally. Decided not to top, LST, or SCROG. I will definitely be implementing some of these techniques on future runs.

I'm not so sure the lady on the bottom left is Krippy. Possibly a different pheno, but who knows. She's got very interesting variegated leaves. I thought it was a deficiency at first, but it's just the way she grows.

9/4/23
The ladies are stretching! I moved the variegated Krippy back into my 3x3, she was a good bit shorter than the rest.

9/16/23
We've got some flowers and a little bit of frost.

Pheno # 1 a couple days before chop. This one smells like pure kush and juicy fruit gum.

Pheno # 3 before and after chop. This one reeks of acetone and grapes. Shortest plant out of all 3, best bud structure, insane frost production. Buds are dried and trimmed. Currently curing!

Fast forward a year, forgot I made this thread! The current run is Sin city seeds Scrumdiddlyumtious. Popped a whole pack back in November of 2023, got 4 out of 7 seeds to germ. I got 4 different phenos, 3 of which were trash.

There was something special about the one though, awesome terp profile accompanied by tons of frost. The smell is a perfect balance of pink starburst candy and straight danky funk. The taste is like a mouthful of lemon and lime skittles.

Tried cloning her and failed.... of course I was able to sucessfully clone the undesireable phenos. So at this point, I re-vegged mom and cloned her!

Here are 4 clones in the 4x4. Flowering since September 10th of this year. These girls are in Build A Soil 3.0, fed once during flower. Rockin 10 & 15 gallon fabric pots. Un PHd tap water, super simplified grow. The trellis was not used for training, simply for weight support. Even the smaller buds below the canopy are frosted and dense as hell. No larf from this pheno!
