Diary PCBuds mini-grow

[PCBuds]

Great garden PC... As always. Keep up the good work

Thanks Caio

I'm glad to see you here again.
It's been a while.

My closet plant is looking pretty good but she is a lot smaller than I was expecting.

I'm trying to figure out if she is smaller because of her lack of nutrition at the beginning or if maybe it's got more to do with genetics?

I'm trying to decide what to grow next.
I know Reiko's earlier batch of seeds will grow bigger and taller, so maybe I'll grow another one of those seeds?

If I grow another one of the latest batch of seeds, I might raise the whole planter up higher and unplug the lower sets of LED strips.

I'm trying to decide what to do.

Any input from you or ReikoX would be appreciated.

My first batch of seeds from ReikoX were his cross of Dark Devil and Sugar Black Rose.

This is a quote from ReikoX about the second batch of seeds.

"The new seeds I sent are a collaborative effort with my buddy Mr.Sparkle over at overgrow.com. They are Poisoned Rose x Cookie Devil. The Poisoned rose is a cross I made of Red Poison (Sweet Seeds) x Sugar Black Rose (Delicious Seeds). The Cookie Devil is a cross Mr.Sparkle made of Girl Scout Cookies (Fastbuds) x Dark Devil (Sweet Seeds) F2."



I don't mind growing a smaller plant because I don't smoke very much at all.
I remember growing a plant about six years ago that filled a 1 quart Mason jar and it lasted me 14 months.
But, the fun part for me now is trying to grow a one pound plant, so I think that I'll grow one of Reiko's earlier seeds next.

She's 7 weeks old and 19 inches tall today.

Thanks

She's not that big, but she's really densely packed.

There's no empty space in the plant. She's packed full of flowers.

My sticky traps have caught a bunch of bugs including a few fungus gnats, so I feel confident in saying that my soil mites must be working otherwise I'd have hundreds of fungus gnats.

 

[PCBuds]

My outdoor plant sucks. Lol

I'll be lucky to get a gram off the damn thing.

She's been through a lot of crap right from the start.
I planted her it the cut root stalk on April 23rd, then transplanted her into a yogurt cup, then transplanted her into the outdoor planter where the squirrels dug her up three times.

Now it's just an experiment to see how much abuse a plant can put up with without croaking. Lol

Maybe I should just put her out of her misery. Lol


I have killed a bunch of plants before, but this plant sets the record as the shittiest living plant I've ever grown. Lol

 

[PCBuds]

She's trying her hardest though and she's got some trichs happening...

 

[ReikoX]

I think it ended up so small because of the side lighting being on so early. Also, didn't you add some cool (5000K) LEDs? Those will definitely keep a plant shorter and bushier.

Yes, that's true.
I did add 12 5000k strips to the walls and had the side lights on quite early.
She was also only getting half nutes until she was starting to flower.

Maybe I'll grow another one the same and see what happens.

I could turn off all the side lights and make sure that I nute her properly.

It would be good for comparison.

The only problem is that my ceiling strips are 5000k as well, but with them not turned up all the way, and being four feet above the plant, it may still grow taller.

I've got a rabbit in my backyard...

I think it's making babies...

They do that a lot...

 

[PCBuds]

My rabbit made a bunch of babies...

I've got a whole handful of them...

[PCBuds]

I'm starting to get some orange pistils.

She's pretty thirsty and drinking almost 2 liters a day.

 

[PCBuds]

The baby rabbits are doing fine.
Their mom comes by every day to feed them.

 

[PCBuds]

There's a new dragonfly perched above my plant.

It's been poopping on my plant too. Lol

Do you want some plant with your bud, sir?

Amazing!

I'm pretty sure that it's mostly because of the lighting.

When I used to use CFL's I would have big leafy plants, but they weren't anywhere near as dense with buds as my latest plants.

 

[PCBuds]

My leaves are looking much better and healthier.

They seem to have recovered as best as they can.
They are still turned up a bit, and the tips of all the serrations are yellow, but I figure that there was tissue damage that it couldn't recover from.
