Joes grows grow journal ....

[Joseph Fontaine]

This is were I'll put what I'm working on and were I'll document my plants and the days thanks everyone who watches joes grows learning lots !!!!!!! In there the smallest is a one eyes snake bait the plant that is in flower is my first indoor grow two plants one pot and auto flower by dream beans farms it is pappy's secret stash she stunted horribly for many of reasons regardless day 42 she's looking really great beautiful tints and colors coming in the i side of the bud is red when it is harvested I'll show you guys also lots of tricromes. Smells very orangy and citrusy and earthy . The nwxt biggest is my second attempt at this strai it is 21 days old already started flowering looking much better then last te at 21 days old . Next up is a one eyed snake bait from cartys 3rd and 4th pics it is i think two weeks about give or take there a weeks apart and tje smaller ome had a damaged tale i may get rid of it for slow growth the newest is also from Cartman and its the hubabuba meloscope by mephisto if thats all spelt correctly lol... Guys I'm addicted thanks for everything fro. Everyone also I do have one more one eyed snake bait and one more mephisto huba coming in with two photos weather they turn male or not i will be keeping them one blue moonshine x blue indica and a purp asbiscus x $ugarbelts germinating i know it's a lot but im addicted i am grabbing another light for my 2x4 I dont think my king is enough for the whole tent . Thanks for watching ill be updating as much as possible ..... Also i found out there's a dispensary right in my town called Leafly I believe and its recreational . I got two grams of gmo 29 %thc 24 buks best stuff iv had in forever was worth the money

My first indoor grow at day 50 two plants one pot I'm a newbie lol compared to my second same strain same pal of seeds but the second ones at day 30 ... Learning first I did it and secondly number two try looking much better ...pretty happy do far but one thing im getting another light for sure

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

Update on wats going on my first indoors plant was chopped two or three weeks early I got about an oz of some fire smooth smoking sticky citrusy earthy amazing bud best iv smoked in a long time . I straight fuked it up but she had some nice buds and she was pollinated and chopped early and still was fire . It was dream beans genetics pappy's secret stash my last seed is at day 42 shes still got half her life to put on weight and build tricromes I'm only using Alaskan morebloom 0 10 10 and sense cal mag 2 0 0 once a week so feed water water ... then I have a one eyed snake bite at day 27 today she was defoliated a little and i bent some tops to encourage all the lower growth tp come up once she bounces back i will be tying her bak and spreading her out little by little( its amazing the insane amount of shoots and side branches all coming out of this plant it is some knarly genetics compared to my dream bean growth wise so far) and four purp hiasca x sugar belts that popped and two blue moonshine x blue indica that popped these will veg untill i pick three of the best females and one badass male im going to shoot for crossing the two strains think it'll be awesome if i can do this and a great learning experience once they are crossed i can run them seeds and see how she came out .

 

[Bugus_Monkey]

Very nice.

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

Four sugar belts popped the two blue moonshine and blue indica also popped what size pots should I do first I ddor photo grow I want them to fill my tent four of them

 

[Carty]

Start them in 1gal pots for 2 or 3 weeks... up pot to 3gal felt pot and flower out at week 4.

Use a decent soil and not much food is needed really... I've even had good luck recently with Miracle Grow container soil for indoor... just be sure to buy it at a store that keeps it inside and not outside in the elements.. that's ok for outdoor, but indoor you'll be battling bugs soon as they all hatch... doh.

have fun bro... we'll make more seeds... lol

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

So my sugar belts and blueberry indica x blumoonshin are two weeks old I believe I put too much Epsom salt in them there growth is slow for all but one which I didn't use it urggg . So should I flush them or let them ride it out like I said only two weeks sugar belts x purp hayascua the three white pots in the back and blueberry indica x blue moonshine the two in front on the tjree white pots Photos two weeks since they popped out the soil ( do they look stunted? )
Then there is a dream beans Diamond milk at 10 days since popped Its an auto in the left corner my dream beans pappys secret stash auto about 55 days old auto. The biggest with the buds about a two gallon that's my second i doors plant and a one eyed snake bait from I believe graysin farms carty can correct me if im wrong thats about forty days old and a hubbabubba meloscope from mephisto thats about 30 days old. Most of these are from cartys gift away . I have more photos too add

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

Some more pics still this phone camera doesn't get the real beauty my pappy's is so frosty I am in lost for words so god dam proud of myself. And the one eyed snake bait is small but is starting to fill in beautifully hubba bubba for being in a gallon even it may be like a half gallon container first pic and second hubba bubba 3rd and 4 th then some random pics of the pappys

Look good to me

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

So my pappy's has about a day maybe five left ..... She's about day 70 def seeing all the leaves be sucked dry ugly but onced there trimmed off the buds beautiful. Also the hubbabubba looks great it's gonna be seedy but I want some seeds . From the autos . Then the one eyes snake bight looks great for just a one almost only .75 gallon it's the taller auto . And my three purp hiascus x sugar belts and blue moonshine x blueberry indica are going strong they will be in three gallon pots of promix box and micoriza added to the whole i will veg another two weeks or some lmk wat they think. .

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

As you see my pappy's has a few leaves left but it's almost at the point I want to pick it about 5 percent amber tricromes I want a few more and it'll probably be tamarow she looks herendous I have a temp of 78 and it says a humidity of 50% is that ok for these giys flowering and veg? I'll take better pictures after once I inspect them also anyone know when the photos should show sex

 

[Joseph Fontaine]

Can someone lmk when I should top my girls please @SubmarineGirl @oldfogey8 @Carty @pute can you guys lmk when I should top my photos? And should I remove and of the larger fan leaves? There right above in the pics thanks in advance and any suggestions on soil I was thinking of getting the sunshine mix #4 like @dogster said he uses looks very good and reasonably priced has seven diff kinds of micoriza should i add anything to it ? Perlite , wormcasting anything? Blooeal lol lmk I'll take the advice .there exactly three weeks today they stunted some when I transplanted the big one I left in the peat pot the others I took out so for now on I'm gonna put the whole peat pot in the soil with it but im gonna start using rapid rooters i believe.

I don't use the mychorial mix just the basic sunshine #4 and don't add anything except the plant,water and jacks ferts.
As far as topping that depends on space,lighting and how many branches you want........it can be a couple nodes or a dozen.
I remove the main fan leaves when I top and when I switch to flower.

Ty I'm gonna top at node five then again eventually this should have a decent amount or branches if I top twice possibly three times but we'll see how they grow Ty

 

[SubmarineGirl]

I’m sure I don’t do it by the book or like some others but I like an easy grow without a lot of steps and stuff.
I guess I go by the plant when it comes to topping. Sometimes the node spacing is super tight. I usually let those get a bit taller before topping but normally around node five ish, I will top. Depending on the plant, i sometimes top again but not always. And yes I’m not the best at removing the big beautiful fan leaves but after topping it is best to get rid of them to allow good air flow and shading of future bud sites. And clean out the bottom too as no use wasting growth on that stuff, will only slow dow the growth elsewhere.
As far as soil goes I use the FF strawberry soil as I’ve been having good luck with it and have had very few gnat issues which I hate. I also mix some extra perlite in the soil. this is preloaded soil which lets me transplant several times without ever adding nutrients almost till I put them in flower. The sunshine mix sounds good too and dogster has grown some nice plants with it so there’s that… I like using rapid rooters for clones and seeds and find that the peat cups that you speak of take too long to break down especially for cannabis plants that grow so quickly. You may at least cut the bottom out of the peat cup and add a little micoriza to the transplant hole.
Good luck with your grow Joe, I’ll be watching what you do.

Ty that's perfect knowledge appreciated very much love the work you do

I think of the environment cannabis thrives in as a box.
Doesn't matter what kind of box it is or what it's made from all that matters is staying inside it.
It's a extremely hearty cultivar that grows in a wide array of climates.

My temps been hitting the 80 mark 82 with another light they should thrive in that heat as long as there adequately watered and have good circulation no?

 

[dogster]

Should be fine as long as the air is being exchanged.

I figured I have an I line fan with a carbon filter blowing out and it makes the tent suks air in then a oscillating fan that hits all the plant from a moment and back again ECT. How much do you pay for that sunshine mix like 80 bucks cause that's the price I've seen ?
