Fire from the North - Tropical Snow Seed grow

[Rexel]

36 days from sprout and flipping to 10/14 from 12/12.

They are vigorous for sure! Especially the two pairs. I need to put the lower ones on stilts and raise the scrog net to make room in the upcoming days.

The LED been set to 370w for the last month an I will keep it there for all stretch. I'm suspecting the biggest two are gonna rally stretch and will need to be cropped after stretch is done. It's gonna be a challenge to even them out gor sure!

Being fed 0.8 EC pH 6.5, pH has been stabilized in the last week and I will start monitor pH and EC runoff entering flower. I've checked it sporadically and they've been eating like hogs in veg!

Cheers!

02:00 and light are out! I finally elevated the two stouter ones! The two bigger ones are starting to touch the netting. I will be tucking the tops as stretch progress to fill out the foot print.

Cheers!

40 days from sprout! Taking cuttings of each tomorrow. 4 days since flip to 10/14.

Cheers!

41 days from sprout and 5 days post flip! Took cutting of each.

Made a new flower batch of food cutting out Epsom and running 4:2 ratio mix (Jacks5-12-26:Calcium nitrate). 1.1 EC, pH 6.2 x5 a day.

Cheers!

Almost completely filled out. The stoutest one is finally catching up!

Cheers!

46 days from sprout and 10 days from flip. Gonna raise the lowest one in the upper left corner to get them more even. She's just started to stretch and shoot spears.

1.0 EC pH ~6.0 x5 a day.

52 days from sprout 12/12-10/14 light from start to finish.

Being fed 1.05 EC, pH ~6.0 5x a day.

Cheers!

56 days since sprouted and 20 days from flip!

Second support net is going in! I broke one of the tops closest to the zipper but that won't matter much this early on. Maybe it'll live, maybe it will become a "topped top".

Cheers!

23 days since flip!

Filling up 30 liters every third day at this point.

1.0 EC pH ~ 6.0 5x a day.

Base 5-12-26, Calcinit, Potassium silicate @ 30ppm residual Si, Humic/Kelp and dash of Fish mix(5ml/30liters).

Cheers!

Did some minor defoiling yesterday when I removed and cleaned up all the lowers. The stoutest ones are still going for the stretch but should settle down in the upcoming days.

Cheers!

27 days since flip and plants are bulking for real. Stretch is done for all of the individuals.

I think I managed to get them pretty even? They are pretty uniform all thins considered but with some individual phenotypical traits. One is very early and big on the sugar early on. The one in the picture.

All of the cutting have developed roots in the cloner tray. I'm just letting them root a little bit longer to let them recover.

Cheers!

30 days since flip.

Added another one of the fans I have in the top above the light fixture. Total 3x 70w fans. Full blast on the top two and lowest setting in the bottom. I have a total of 5 stationary metal fans when running this amount of plants and biomass in flower.

Plants are taking the light really well while releasing and transpiring enough to keep temperature in range. It's been years since I had anything that could perform like this to be fully hones. A Madkush x Blue Streak 2 had similar traits with being able to handle a lot of light and that's 10+ years ago.

Now I only want to know the felt effects and those to be on point at the end of harvest. But it seems very promising early on!

Cheers!

35 days since flip and plants are waking up with 19C / 66F and about 60% humidity. I try to keep temps but also humidity down at the same time. I'm able to keep 26C / 79F at the canopy and I'm very happy with that. There's a lot of headroom for the local climate and temperature to change while I'm still very close to what I consider optimal 27-28.5C.

I mix 30 liters / 9 gallons every other day at this point with very little runoff on the two most vigorous individuals. It's looking promising for the future with plants that are able to eat and drink like these two. Looking forward to running mono in the future!

Cheers!

First day of week 7 and the flowers are ripening up. I think the two fastest ones will be done around the 8 weeks mark from flip. Really fast turnover on this strain. Very "OG" looking flowers.

I keep feeding 1.1 EC pH ~ 6.0 5x a day.

Cheers!
