OLD SOUL & Gelati Kush Mints x Double OG Chem

[I Care]

*Title change, I also was given an OldSoul rooted cutting.*




Original Post:
Was given this GKMDOGC seedling.

Seemed to be reacting badly to the LED at 40% so now it’s under fluorescet.
Have only watered once to run off and was told there’s some food in the soil.
Grower recommended to run half pro mix. And half cost of maine growers mix, which I should have bought there cause I ended up paying more at a closer shop.

Plan to transplant straight into a 10 gallon with 1 part cost of maine aeration blend, 1 part growers mix, 1-2 parts peat moss and 1 part perlite and then use bocanna for the flower stage. Going to run this indoor unless it seems appropriate to also propagate for outdoor growth. If the strawnanna ever seems to want to mature I will grow them side by side.

Oh it smells delicious

Thanks for sharing your garden with us friend. Looks like you are off to a good start. I'm going to ride with you for a while.

Thanks CP. still trying forgive myself for losing the GC, that was a really good cut. newly educated on VPD got to my head before the end.

Already running into problems.
Root bounded overnight, outside is freezing cold with hazardous weather on the way so it’s too late to unload and mix soil in the yard. I have some plastic and I know what I need to do, but I’m not dealing with all that mess inside.

Edit: on second thought, have to do something when you know what to do.

I brought all the stuff in and and then decided I’m not ready for a 40L yet.
Chose to bleach a 6L pot. Easy to measure parts using a 16oz cup.


I tried to layer the mix, peat and perlite on bottom, aeration and perlite in the middle and growers mix and perlite on top. Couldn’t get a good mix on it like that and was just compacting the soil so it went in a bucket and mixer all the way together.



Put a cup of peat and a cup of perlite in the bottom of the 6L pot, filled with blended media and watered in.




Drains fast, nice and lightweight.

Hopefully it’s not too hot!
3pts Premier Peat
3pts Perlite
3pts Aeration Formula
3pts Grower’s Mix

Again, I put this on top of that about a qt/L of 4:3 peat to perlite in the bottom of the pot. So it’s about 14 of those 16oz restaurant cups and a little seedling starter square pot worth of media to fill the 6L pot.

Second issue.

Moved under LED.
I thought I had too much light going, intensely bright at 60%, turned it down. Had some bleaching and some reds coming out in the stems.
Now it’s continued with clawing after turning the lights down.

Not as much clawing on the seedlings.

Probably would be alright if I kept everything under the Flourescent lighting the last couple days

 

[I Care]

GKMxDblOGChem on the right.
Everything is a whole lot better this morning.
They really don’t like the full spectrum LED as youngsters.

Update. Looks like the mix is a little strong or the light really stressed it out. Smells amazing!!!

So this soil mix is holding up really nicely.
Watered in 8 days ago. I did have some micro and seaweed water for the late ones that I cut back up to a quart and watered round down the can liner.
So 1qt of water since watering in.
Cool and moist soil and air all around right now.

I have to control the urge to flood it with the others today.
How much precipitation doesget in its natural habitat in spring? Wundermap the Himalayas and they’ll get some rain in the forecast.
I’ll just give it a massage like it’s getting pelted. Get those branches going.

 

[I Care]

Don’t know if it’s hungry or what.
Little bit of lighting condition up top.
I’ll just let it ride and have some faith.

The big sister.

I’m having a good time this 4/20 season.

On the second day of fourtwenty what I have done you can see, a flower rig for Gelati Kush Mints x DOGC. There’s something else her now called OldSoul. It’s another one that I was given and it’s close with the GKMDOGC in vegetative volume.

I am adding it to the title since they’re running together in the same soil.

Old Soul - GKMxDOGC

 

[I Care]

Stalled them out with light stress. Looking at the above post, the light was in the perfect spot to start and I lowered it a few inches and turned it up a couple notches. Could have been tragic and considered a 150HPS at the hardware store if it hadn’t improved today. It seems to be working itself out now. I didn’t document how bad they looked.

The OS cut is already popping off since day 1 of being in the night rig.

 

[I Care]

Got the Old Soul and GKMDOGC making somewhat of a come back. It’s almost a week since flooding in and the soil is still cool and damp. Pots are heavy.

Old Soul is a really vigorous cut and doesn’t mind the light much.

GKMDOGC is still adjusting to the light.

 

[I Care]

EDIT EDIT EDIT - this was the plan but I actually had to wait another week and the water went with different water the flooding week



They need some potash, I have some Jacks Tomato Formula prepared and hopefully I can get some stretch and branching out of early flower. If not it’s okay, this is a “less is more” adventure this time around.

Based on my findings with run off PPM being 368ppm and low PH at the time of run off. 1/2tsp of Jacks Tomato Water is prepared at 493ppm and the ph is at 6.4 as it sits. Will be flooded tomorrow since that seems to be good for root growth.


The Old Soul looks quick to flower being a good cut and the GKMxDOC still hasn’t begun to bloom.


EDIT EDIT EDIT - this was the plan but I actually had to wait another week. I watered with different water the following week

Finally adjusting to the light and the timing.

Have not been ready for water I prepared. 10 gallon pots of 2024 PAGP mix keep water well.

Old Soul and GKMxDOC

 

[I Care]

Things are really changing. They’re standing up tall after some molasses and jacks tomato’s. Little tip burn from the PAGP ‘24. Leaves curling down a little bit like a PH issue happens when watering happens. Temptation to turn the light up but I’m going to resist.

 

[I Care]

Time to begin further ducumentation. I’ll bring in a yard stick soon.

o dang, missed a post about the water.
Must have been high and didn’t submit it.
actually I was definite high and clearly didn’t click the Post reply button.

Watered with 300 ppm jacks and 70ppm of molasses one gallon each, then I went back with 100 ppm molasses (only) with another gallon each for run off of around 1 gallon each.

Side watered.
