Mephisto Genetics Double Grape, 3BOG, and a CDLC x Sour Stomper

[Phreakoftheweek]

Week 3 is done. I expect the larger two to begin to stretch this week. I've had a bit of a struggle to keep the temps up in the tent, running about 73 as the high and dipping to 66 at lights off. Don't think the 3BOG is fond of the cooler temps or maybe it will hit a growth spurt soon. All three are at 4mg/gal of MC, 1g/gal sweet candy, 2g/gal of Cal-mag, .6ml/gal Mammoth P, and 2ml/gal of Hydroguard

The CDLC x SS took about 4 hours to bounce back from the Thanksgiving tie down

Why turn your lights off if your temps are getting low? Run 24/7

I thought about it, I'm on a 20/4 schedule now. I'm sure the temp will stay at 73 but at least there will not be a dip when the lights are off

4 weeks in on the bigger girls. I cleaned up the Double Grape a bit on Monday, removed the small stuff around the bottom and cut some fans but it doesn't look like I did a damn thing in the photo (I had 3 handfuls of material I tossed in the compost bin). The CDLC x SS is cruising along, I cleaned her up down low as well. Kicking myself for not putting her in a 5 gallon smart pot, plus the 2 gallon it is in requires water twice a day. I think she will be real nice when all said and done. The 3BOG is 10 days or so behind the others but I doubt it will reach their size. Still at 4g/gal of MegaCrop, 2g/gal Cal-Mag, 1g/gal Sweet Candy, .6ml/gal of Mammoth P, 2ml/gal of Hydroguard, and every other watering the big girls have gotten .75g/gal of Bud Explosion. I turned off the humidifier last night as the RH was at 63% and we are forecast rain the next few days. The CDLCxSS and the 3BOG are going to switch spots so I can raise the T4 and then lower the other light so the 3BOG can hopefully benefit

Week 5 done and what a difference a week makes. Growth has been ridiculous, I moved the CDLC x SS over under the t4 and the 3BOG gets a light to herself for a bit. I have moved the t4 up 3 times this week and I hope the stretch is over. I had been ticked off about not putting the CDLC X SS in a 5 gallon smart pot but in retrospect it may have been a blessing because it would have taken over the tent. Still going with the 4g/gal of Megacrop, 2g/gal of cal-mag, 1g/gal of sweet candy, .75g/gal of bud explosion every other day, .6ml/gal of Mammoth P, and 2ml/gal of Hydroguard. I turned on the dehumidifier and have the RH at 41% and my temps are pretty steady 72-74F. I have another 8 inch circular fan that I am going to point on the Double Grape after she comes out of the tent this weekend for a little cleanup of her excessive foliage.

Day 42 and the plants are chugging along. Same feed schedule and the RH is around 40% with temps coming at 73F. Will probably start a little defoliation this week. Here are a few pictures...

I'm not going to get too crazy. Probably cut the big fans out of the CDLC X SS and clean out more lower stuff on the DG. The DG is so branchy and has so many bud sites I feel like I need to make an effort to clean up potential larf
