The new plant is 1 week old and has 4 sets of leaves already, same as the others, a fast starter. With the first ones, I went straight to 3 gallons. This one, I'm going to 1 gallon first, then 3. Going to top a week later too, at week 5

The ladies look better. The burn is over and the flush shock wasn't bad. The buds are slightly bigger, but usually, buds slow down week 3 or 4. They'll pick up when I hit them with some Jamaican bat guano tea next week

Week 5 of flower and the leaves are beginning to die off. The buds are getting huge. Will have pics when my friend sends them. Just wanted to write this down for chronological reasons

I had used a layer of perlite on the bottom of my pots, and it was the MG perlite with fertilizer, which fried one plant and hurt the other. I got the one in a bigger pot and color is returning, the other in jars--took one day to snap the stem :(

The little one is amazing. At 3 weeks, she's bigger than the previous two were after five. Am using Espoma organic potting mix and she loves it. Also used Espoma when I repotted the burnt plant

I'll have pics in the next few days. I promise, the new girl will blow your mind. She's not only big, she's beautiful. Green and lush, I smoke and stand in the closet and stare at her :)

Bought ceeds from Attitude, were sent today. 3 Auto Chemdog and got a Blue Kush freebie :)

Gonna run one Chemdog with the new lady and then, the other two, as I veg the blueberry for 10 weeks. She's supposedly a 5 star strain. 4.9 from what I see. Would love to get 5 ounces, settle for 3 :)

The older plant was done and my friend lost the pics, but it was about an ounce or a little more. Disappointing. The smoke was nice, smelled different, but the stone was energetic and buzzy. Nice for doing recreational stuff. Better than most skunky, danky (Expensive) weed you get here.

The huge difference was the taste, which is where the organics paid off. It didn't sting or burn my tongue. Ten minutes after smoking, I had cotton mouth, but not that nasty taste that keeps me drinking soda for hours with commercial weed. I'm looking forward to the next grow

I could also see the trichromes after drying. The commercial weed never has any. They shake them off or whatever. It was nice to smoke weed as it was meant to be :)

I'm going to continue this journal because the lessons I learned from the first set of plants are paying off with the new one. 4 1/2 weeks old, topped to 4 nodes, she's in a 5 gallon, with an L shaped scrog attached to the side.

The plant is amazing, was below the scrog one day, 3 inches above it the next. 9 of 10 nodes are above it now and have all been topped. This looks to be the beginning of a beautiful plant

I got a lot of action with these seeds all for $34 with basic ordinary shipping. Not bad for the price and the journey isn't over yet. Going to run an Auto Chemdog alongside the scrog

I will have pics in a few days

The scrog is 10 inches above the soil. The one end is attached to the 5 gallon bucket. The main node was topped twice to 4 and the other 7 nodes that have reached above the scrog have been topped once. The two that haven't reached were supercropped today, if they don't speed up, they'll be chopped

Just to keep this journal up to date, the Special Kush has not had one single problem. A few leaves died, but the Espoma soil is great, I'm using it for the Chemdogs. Took the scrog off and there are 18 bud sites starting to develop buds. Just finished 2 weeks flower and will be 8 weeks old on Friday

One Chemdog seed popped and never broke the soil. It was right side up, never developed a root. At 12 days old, the other two look great. Will have pics by friday
