So both plants really bounced back once i transplanted into 3 gallon phat sacks. I believe those half gallon transplanter sacks are too thick and dont drain water properly. I still have not given the plants anything but bottled water, since i feed them a little early. I believe tomorrow i will give them distilled water with Floranova Grow and Armor Si. And start getting them on a regular nutrient regime.
Well last night i went ahead and took advantage of the black friday deals that GPS had going on and got a pack of Tomahawk. It looks really good and i hope to find some dank flowers. I have been looking at Tomahawk, Dreamcatcher, and Doc Holiday but I decided to go with Tomahawk because it has GG#4 in it and that looks great. So we see how it goes that will be next for sure.
Well the local grow shop had some black friday deals going on so i decided to buy another bag of Great lakes just add water soil it was on sale from $26 to 15. And the first 10 people to spend 10 bucks got a free goodie bag that they packed in a 3 gallon phat sack. I pictured everything in it below. But ill list it also. I really wanted to try the Mammoth p tester botle they put in it. But they put trimming scissors,Mammoth P sample bottle, a 30x/60x loupe, Bud Ignitor sample bottle,Fish shit sample bottle and a sample pack of both Roots Organic Terp tea grow and bloom. Not bad for free.

Day 22 11/24/18

So today i decided to feed again, this is the second time i have feed them. I believe the first time was a little bit early and kinda burned them. So i gave them 1/4 teaspoon of Armor Si, 1 teaspoon of Floranova Grow, and .6 ml of Mammoth P all mixed into a gallon of distilled water. I split the gallon between the 2 plants until I got roughly 20% runoff, there is still a quarter gallon in the jug. From now on I will continue on a regular nutrient regime. I also started to germinate some seeds i got from my last grow. Just waiting on my Tomahawk seeds to get here. I ordered it Thanksgiving day at midnight and it says it will arrive on Monday. HELL YA!!!
On Another note im sitting here drknking a brewski and smoking a bowl watching this Ohio State Vs Michigan game LETS GO WOLVERINES!!!!!!

Day 23,
So i decided to top both of the plants this morning, as of a couple hours later it dident seem to bother them but we shall see. I want to top each one a couple time and start training them so i have a good amount of tops and try to keep a pretty even canopy.
My next purchase i want to get is a Ph pen so i can feed them at the proper Ph. The local grow store has on for 60 and they have a blue lab with a 1 year warranty for something like 100. So im gonna do some more research and hopefully get one next paycheck.

Day 24,
So both plants look like they never missed a beat from the topping and look fine. I went ahead and fed them tonight and made the feed a little bit stronger. I gave them 1 1/2 teaspoons of Floranova grow, 1/2 teaspoon of Armor Si, and .6 ml of Mammoth P all mixed into a gallon of distilled bottled water. And i split the gallon between both plants.
My Tomahawk seeds from Greenpoint came in today and I cant wait to get those started but i have to finish these Gamma Berries first.

Day 25,
So today I began training the plants
I used these foam strings and bent each plant down to one side and tied it to the handles of the pots. This Gamma Berry strain is really dense and the nodes are real tight, so hopefully the lower branches will start coming up .
Also the plants are seeming to love the nutrients

Day 27,
So both pants are responding well to being bent over and tied down. Within a day they were pointing back up and really starting to bush out. I just feed them its been 3 days since the last time ive feed them. I gave them 1/2 teaspoon of Armor Si, 1 1/2 teaspoons of Floranova grow, and .6 ml of Mammoth mixed into a gallon of distilled water and I split the gallon between the 2 plants. Still just chugging along.
Also 2 seeds I germinated and put into soil in a party cup popped thru the soil today. So we can call today day 1 on those. The seeds where from my last grow i got out of the bud, just running to see what I get if its any good i have about 50 seeds. If its shit i will can them.
The plants in the gallon phat sack in the back of the last pic is 3 tomato plants im starting.

Day 28,
Not much going on, both plants are really loving the Lst and are starting to bush out.
As for the seeds I started from my last grow I had them on the ground and one of them really started to stretch toward the light. So I put them up on a 5 gallon bucket, they are only like 13 inches in height from the light but they are a little to the side. They are getting the scraps of the lights lol. So I hope its not to close. Will keep an eye on them.
I have my eye on a Hlg 135 watt board kit in 3000k , but im not the best with elecrical shit but im sure its not that hard to put together and can find a video on how to. My plan is to get that light for my current room, and take one of the 65 watts out and use for a small veg tent to get them to approx 1 month from seed. Then move to other room so i dont have to wait as long between harvests.

Day 30,
Still not much going on I just fed them 1/2 teaspoon Armor Si, 1 1/2 teaspoons Floranova grow, and .6 ml of Mammoth P all mixed into a gallon of distilled water and split the gallon between both plants. I have been feeding on every 3rd day lately, and they seem to like it.
Day 4 for the small seedings I have in the party cups they both have their first set of true leaves and each one has a new set coming in. 1 of them is really stretchy so when I transplant them I will pot it down a little and hopefullyfix that issue. Each of them got a little distilled water today.

Still chugging along...

Day 32

Yesterday I decided to trim 4 big fan leafs off of each plant, they were covering the plants. So I opened them up and exposed the tops to the light. These plants are super dense and needed some leaves taken off. Soil is still a little damp I will feed after work tomorrow.

Day 6 for the seedlings they look nice and healthy and have new sets of leaves coming in. On the stretchy one I added some more soil to the cup to help with the stretching. I gave each seedling an 8th teaspoon of Floranova grow and and 8th teaspoon of Armor Si mixed into a gallon of distilled water and just gave each plant a small amount each. I wanted to see if I can start these on nutes early and very light to see if it helps.

Day 33

I fed each plant today, and I decided to up the nutrient strength a little. I mixed 3/4 teaspoon Armor si, 2 teaspoons of Floranova grow, and .6 Ml of Mammoth P into a gallon of distilled water and split it between the 2 plants. I also tied 2 more branches from each plant to the side of their pots to try and open them up a little. Other than that nothing much going on just chugging along.

Day 7 for the 2 seedlings they seemed to love the light nute solution I gave them last night and are all perked up looking nice and green. Each seedling has 4 new leaves coming in . I have never started a plant on nutes this early but they seem to love it.

Day 35

Still not much going on with the 2 Gamma Berries just chugging along I tied another branch down on the left plant (which is G.B. #2). G.B. # 2 is really bushing out and I love the shape it has going on. G.B. #1 is not as filled in as much and is a little taller. Still to early to tell but I think G.B #1 is a male and hopefully G.B #2 is a female. But only time will tell.

Day 9 for the smaller seedlings and they are nice and healthy and really growing fast. I fed them last night with the same very light nutrient mix. I gave each one a small amount.

Still just chugging along...

Day 36

Well I pulled everything out and cleaned the grow room up and wiped everything down. And tied a few more branches down. G.B. #2 is looking great and the shape is perfect and bushy. G.B. #1 isnt as bushy and a little taller i believe this one is a male. But not sure yet. Today was a feed day so I gave them 1 teaspoon Armor Si and 2 teaspoons of Floranova grow, and .6 ml of Mammoth P all mixed into a gallon of distilled water and split between both plants. Still just chugging along.

Day 10 for the smaller plants and both of them have a some leaves tacoing, I believe its from being too close to the lights. I had them on a 5 gallon bucket but that was too high. I dident really have much to place them on to raise them up off of the floor. So I put my redneck engineering skills to work and busted out the Heineken case and it works perfect. Luckily im a beer drinker...

Day 37,

I have noticed a few small bite marks on the leaves of the Gamma Berries, and something almsot completely took off one of the tops on G.B #1. I just stood it back up properly and by the end of the night it looks as if it fixed itself. So last night before lights out I sprayed both plants with a very fine a sprayer and a mixture of Organicide and bottled water. I made the mixture on the lighter side I did it as a preventative to make sure nothing messes this grow up. I had the same problem last grow just a few bites here and there but nothing serious and when i hit it with organicide it all stopped and was good all the way throught flower. Ive read alot of negatives about organicide but it works wonders for me. Other than that mot much going on with the Gamma Berries. Still just chugging along...

Day 11 for my bagseeds the leaves were tacoing and thought it was from being to close to the light but i also think it was time to transplant. So all I had on hand was half gallon phat sacks i know its not a whole lot bigger but it will buy me some time to get to the grow store. When I transplanted I dipped them in Microbe life hydroponics Folliar spary and Root dip and used the same soil Detroit Nutrient Company Great lakes water only soil. The roots had begun to circle the party cup so i attached a pic of the roots. I usually do a pretty good job at transplanting and dont get any transplant shock.

If Anybody is following along... Feedback would be cool and welcomed.

Day 38,

I decided to top each of the plants, because each one has a couple tops that are taller and I kinda want to slow down vertical growth and hopefully encourage horizontal growth. G.B #1 was kinda dry and the pot was a little light so I gave it a small amount of bottled water to hold it off till tomorrow when I get home and feed each plant. G.B #2 was stilll a little heavy and soil was still damp so i held off. Other than that nothing much going on just chugging along...

Day 12,

Both plants are fine after yesterday transplanting and are loving there new homes. They are standing straight up and looking great. I got these seeds from a really vigorous plant that exploded with growth so hopefully they are similar. I will feed them tomorrow.

Day 39,

So im pretty postive G.B #1 is a male so I removed it from the room. Down to only G.B #2. There were like balls coming out where the preflowers would show, and like 2 or 3 connected together. Still nothing showing on the other. It follows along with what ive read about males showing preflowers first and males being taller. I attached a pic of the balls its not the best pic kinda blurry but you can see. Other than that I fed G.B #2 1 teaspoon Armor Si, 2 teaspoons of Floranova Grow, .6 ml of Mammoth P all mixed into a gallon of distilled water. I fed the plant half of the gallon. Still just chugging along...

Day 13 for smaller plants im just kinda experimenting with so I topped one of them to see how it reacts this early. They are both on there 4th node.

Day 41,

Nothing much going on, I trimmed up the plant a little to open it up for the light last night. Other than that nothing much on, im thinking about transplanting from this 3 gallon fabric pot to a 5 gallon fabric pot. Since I only have 1 of the 3 Gamma berries that I started i can allow it to get bigger. So i will probably transplant this weekend then give it anothr week or 2 then switch to flower.
Still just chugging along...

Day 15 for the smaller plants and the one I topped 2 days ago is looking great, so i will prolly top the other one tomorrow. I will up the nutes a little bit when I feed them tomorrow.

Day 43,

I just transplanted into a 5 gallon phat sack, I decided to use Fox Farm Strawberry Fields mixed with Great lakes water only as my soil. The guy at the grow store said this strawberry fields is designed for the flowering stage. Once I finished transplanting I tied down all the branches again. In about a week or 2 im gonna switch to flowering

Day 17,

I transplanted both small plants into 2 gallon phat sacks with Fox Farms Strawberry fields as my soil. Im using 2 gallons because as soon as my Gamma Berries is ready to flower, im just gonna flower these no matter their sizes.

The Gamma Berry seems to love its new 5 gallon home and is all perked up and happy. Im loving the size and shape and will most likely induce flowering this coming weekend. i want to give the new tops that i topped time to grow a little then its switch time.
really chugging along now...

Day 18,

The little plants are all perked up and loving life, when I transplanted I fed at full strength (same strength I feed the Gamma Berry) and they seem to love it. Will continue feeding at full strength. cant wait to see how these flower..

Day 45,

I fed the Gamma Berry tonight and added Myco Chum to the nute mix. which has molasses, fish hydrolysate, liquid kelp and humic acids in it. I used it during flowering for my last grow and liked it, so decided to start it a week before flower this run. I fed 1/2 teaspoon Armor Si, 2 teaspoons Floranova grow, .6ml Mammoth P, and 1 teaspoon of Myco Chum all mixed into a gallon if distilled water. I gave the Gamma berry 2/3 of the gallon and used the rest between the 2 smaller plants.
I also decided to defoliate a good amount of leaves and clean up the bottom a little. This damn plant is just so dense.
Still just chugging along...

Day 19,
Fed again at full strength today, they got the same nute mix as the Gamma berry. I also attached a pic of the new tops coming in on the first plant I topped.
