Hello and happy new grow. Hopefully can get these harvested by the new year and I get one more flower cycle in before the Summer break-
Day 1 for the Star Dawg girls
And here is after one week and today-
Survived first week well and healthy so they get mulched a bit to help retain moisture/heat for a loving rooting environment-
1/2G pots from Rain Science allows me to root them just a bit longer than 10-14 days in a solo cup- velcro seam for easy up-potting. The plan at this point is up from these to 3G for Veg and then to 7G for Flower.
Now, see the empty one? Supposed to be a Chocolope growing there but it didn't pop. Nor did the White Widow, also from Growers Choice Seeds thrown in as a freebie. So, I got the last Chocolope I had in that pack and put it into paper towel, saw a bit of root break from the seed and have it dropped....so fingers crossed? Bear in mind in the last year I have had 3 GCS auto seeds not pop vs. everything from 4 or 5 other breeders did, both auto and photo, so I am a little less than impressed.
Anyway.....
it's a 2' X 3' X 5' tent I have for veg or smaller uses. Little humidifier adds 15-20%...nothing major put's it at about 80%...only use like this 2-4 weeks...then it sits on shelf. Super efficient.
Light panel looks huge but it's not- an HLG 135 Bspec. Spectrum for veg cycle only. Helps keep nodes/plants shorter and height controlled.
Well, away we go......WILL the Chocolope sprout? If not I could do another Big Blue Cheese or just do a third Dawg to make sure I have 3 plants...need to fill the space being used and it's a 2' X 6' and I can run 3 in there...(I hate to run the electricity for a grow and not maximize the cost/space usage)
Soilless media mix, Earth Dust nutrients, under 2 Electric Sky 180 V3's- the plan is a 6 wk veg, into Flower Oct. and in the jars by Christmas.
Topping more than once this time so may be a bit longer veg but I am going to lean on them hard during training to have them being healthy beasts and up for the challenge.
We will see-
Stay frosty Growmies!
...at some point I will be witty enough to sign off by riffing on the new sponsor Mr. Grow It has....I am not there yet...but I'm working on it...🤣
(and all in good fun Chris!) Proud of you for branching out the brand!!!

Wrap up- Dawg house cleared-
second week
week 10 Flower
Just a memory pic because I failed to get drying pics in the tent, oi...
After drying, Rightie that finished first was 107 grams and Leftie that took the extra couple of weeks was 162 grams.
Both are involved with the Grove bag post I have up for curing. I promised a wrap up for this Dawg run and I wanted to put a period on it-
Thanks again to all who came along.
On to the next...
