Mephisto Genetics Long Time No See!!

[KnocktDown]

Them Magnum Opus are in great hands! I'd definitely of got them in dirt immediately too, and I'm sure you likely to think up something to do with them, as well as those Meat Breath.

Thank goodness for journals, lol. I had no clue what point I was at. I have a couple of other grows going and this one had me guessing.. I thought I was a little further along. But looks like today is the start of week 4 from seed. 24 hrs of light in veg seems to make a noticable difference in the amount of vegetation. Ive removed leaves from both plants a few times already.

The Tyrone Stomper has shown sex, the Chemdogging x Chem City Blues is taking its time. I tend to notice that when you top autos early on, they take a little longer to show sex. I think I'm going to switch to a 20/4 light schedule staring at pre flower to help with the stretch and branching. They may both look small in stature, but based on their structure, they could yield surprisingly well. The CDxCCB has the most potential at this point. The branches under that little flat bush are all nice and thick. So she may put out some big main colas.

The grow is going well. I actually haven't fed them a drop of NPK nutes. Just root stimulators and microbes. Im using a new (new to me amended coco medium called Mother Earth Coco Peat. I think I found a gem! The local hyrdo store recommended it when I told them my grow style. I may not end up adding nutes until flower! which is how I prefer it! That's hard to do in coco, but this is looking promising. Not a single deficiency showing on either plant. No complaints at all!

Thanks brotha! yup, it's about that time! I'm thinking of going to 18-6 soon. I think the 24/7 light schedule with the 3500k spectruM has kept them short. I want to see if the change in light schedule has an effect on stretch/flower.

Cooler temps can keep them short also. Are you hitting 80f during light on period? Try not to let temps drop back much during light off periods, for max growth Id suggest min temps of 76f, even during light out times. Im not sure cutting back on light is a good idea unless they are showing light stress, which it doesnt appear is happening. Problem with turning off for 6 hour straight is your temps might drop significantly during that time. If you want to decrease light and dont have a dimmer available, Id consider doing something like 3 on and 1 off repeating with a timer instead...

Thanks bro. Temps are super dialed in... And the light is currently dimmed to about 75% of full power. Lights out would result in ambient temps since this tent is a bedroom tent. It won't be less than 70 degrees. With lights on, its been sittin steady at 74-75. And when really think about it, the size could actually be due to simply getting two small phenos this run. I haven't had small Mephisto plants in a while, so maybe its just finally my turn to get a few. Hahaa

Yeah maybe, Im assuming you are growing HID? 75 is a little chilly for led...

Im using a 120w LED board from [HASHTAG]#foluxsolution[/HASHTAG] . It's 3500 kelvin and on 24/7.
Im not complaining at all, just making notes of what Im seeing since I'm doing a few things different this run. They are both going to be great yielders either way. Its a nice change to have normal sized plants that you can pick up with one hand, and trim in one day!

Happy New Year!! We are one day 35ish now. Things are starting to pick up now. Gotta love days 30-60. It's like an action movie, lol. The Tyrone Stomper is begining to flower, while the Chemdogging x Chem City Blues just starting to show pistils. I topped her once st node 3, and now she has more bud sites than I can keep up with. She's gonna be a crazy bush of buds. Both have gone through several defoliations, especially the CD x CCB. They both got their first feeds this week. Probably wasn't needed, but with the onset of flower, and it being my first time using this brand of coco, I felt it was better safe than sorry. The Mother Earth amended coco seems to be holding up really well though. Both plants are super healthy/happy and ready to do their thang!

The Tyrone Stomper looks like it will be amazing. Excited to see that to the conclusion. Does anyone know the %THC of Tyrone Special?
