3 weeks into flower and all seem to be doing very well, getting a nice smell now when i open my tent, can not wait till these are ready to harvest, started to frost up now and all covered in trichomes, impressed with both the mimosa evo and tropicana banana upto now both seem to be forming nice dense flowers and the both strains have grew well from the start other than my wrong doing giving them a early shock and stunting them but theyve bounced back lovely and from how its looking its going to produce some nice smoke, cant wait thanks again barneys for suppyling me them to test out and create a diary on, see you next week for the latest update 👊

Tuesday Ok so the plants are doing really well. One of the kalini Asia plants is in the only regular pot I’m using now. It’s a little larger than the AutoPot XL’s so therefore the plant is slightly bigger but spread out because I topped it a while ago and today I took all the bottom leaves as well as quite a few of the lower lateral branches that well small and weak. Hopefully this will encourage the energy to where it want it - The main growth tips! I think it was the other kalini Asia that is in the AutoPot XL that I ended up ‘super cropping’? Do correct me if I used the wrong term. The main growth stems were quite a lot higher than the large lateral branches so I squeezed the stem with my finger and flopped the main colas over then taped them and tied them to support them. The canopy is MUCH more even across all plants now. They look a bit bent over at the moment but I bet when I look tomorrow they are all facing the light again. Magic! They are def in the stretch phase now. They are growing like crazy. I’m really glad I did the nasty job of pulling each plant out and tying it down and cutting off the shit that won’t grow anything good. Oh I also gave them a watering from the top using lots of microbes (ecothrive biosys) and molasses dissolved into warm water. The res was basically empty and honestly the AutoPot XL’s don’t even look wet at all on top even though they are getting all the water they need. They don’t react negatively when I occasionally water goodies in from the top so it’s all good!!

Day 64: It seems to go well. I am still keeping an eye on the "hanging" leaves. I think they tend to hang a little more when light on, and less with light off but its hard to say if it is normal. It might be as @GrowingGrannie mentioned, they might be under watered, as there is not much run-off at the last couple of watering's, maybe 1l each time and I will give them a 30% run-off next time to be sure UPDATE: I have noticed some more brown spots on the right plant caused by Calcium Deficiency. I think I should up the PH a bit more, going for 6.5 this time. I will also increase my CalMag supplement by 50%, and do 30% run-off today Day 66: Thank you all for the kind answers 🙏 You all have different opinions, and it is hard to pinpoint the exact problem. I am almost certain that I got some heat/light stress as mentioned by @GrowingGrannie and @Chow_13. I have therefore raised the lamp and are keeping the dimmer very low, using about 140W in total. I am still investigating if there might be other problems to it. @m0use, thank you for your answer. I do not think they are thirsty, at least not any more, as I am already on the subject for the last couple of days. About PH, It was difficult to get a good picture of the PH solution, but it was light-green to green (6.5-7.0) on the picture (And that was run-off PH) and what I put in was adjusted slowly from yellow to light-green aka 6.0-6.5 (I wrote 6.25 but it was auto adjusted) @gottagrowsometime, thank you for the answer. I do not think it is a nitrogen toxicity. My leaves aren't that dark green, although they are a bit to the dark side but not like what I see on other pictures with that problem. I also think the curling is caused by light/heat stress as I just got a new lamp and are experimenting with it. But I will keep your suggestion in the back of my head! @Chow_13, thank you very much for your answer. I think you are spot on, however I am not sure it is the only problem... It might be as you say, nutrients are not absorbed correctly due to the light-stress, but I will not put all my money on that @Nugsery and @GrowingGrannie, a big thank you for your answers. The deficiencies might not be the same, but the cure is very similar. I cannot make up who is right, but I do have a plan. I will follow your recommendation @GrowingGrannie and @Nugsery, and do a flush, but with a ph 5.8 as both nutrients should be able to be absorbed in that level. I will then give her a light nutrient mix and adding PK, also 5.8 ph. This is almost the same solution for both deficiencies. I will then slowly get the ph back to 6.2 @ernesttwwg, thank you for your answer. I have known for some time I have some Interveinal chlorosis, but I do not know what is causing it. There is multiple deficiencies giving those symptoms. The tacoing of leaves, and leaf tips curling down I think is caused by the light, and I have therefor raised the light. I will keep investigating the symptoms you mention OBS: I will not edit my nutrient schema as this is only temporarily, next watering will be as described UPDATE: After flushing with 15L~ ph 5.8~ and a small feed with 5.8~ ph I still get about 6.5~ ph in my run-off water. I am going to do another flush tomorrow to see I can bring it down to around 6.0~ ph Day 67: I think I see small improvements on the leaves. The new heat/light level seem to have done something. I did that second flush and are still getting about 6.5 ph in run-off.... I think I will let her dry for now, monitoring what happens, and do another flush in a couple of days

Start of week 3 blueberry is flowering and the stretch is almost over. The seedlings are growing nicely.the box got up to 100f this week during mini heat wave had to put ice blocks in rez to lower temp down from 80f. I look forward to the 3 other new strains I’m running. My GSC seedling is looking a little pale I should have waited longer to change rez over to bloom nutes. I have top dressed some organic fertilizer near drip line of nutes 4-6-4 one month release. I applied to all seedlings except blueberry. I reduced blumat on gsc, ww, and ch until surface dried a little bit as my gsc was showing signs of overwatering. Gsc is starting to green back up. My bb had to nanners i plucked them I hope these are all. It could be from the high temps or the one night I had a light leak. BB larger plant receving 1000 ppfd.i turn light back down a notch Gsc leaves started cupping now she’s getting just 550 along with other seedlings.will continue to monitor for improvement and ramp lights up a little later if needed as plants should grow into light.

Week 1 27/01/2025 TF and MS Feed HydroSol: Increased to 8ml/5L 28/01/2025 TF and MS Light Increased: 313watts DLi: 35 Rapid Growth has started again. Feed Increased: HydroSol 10ml/5L HP 12%: 1ml/5L Uploaded today's pictures and yesterday's for comparison on how HydroSol is doing? I topped MS. Hopefully by doing this now TF will catch up but that's not why I topped her. She's known for being bushy; so will be good to bring her up to her second level before branching. Giving the rate she is growing; we haven't to worry about stunting Growth. H202 is also know to to cause mutations at high levels. I tried to start this diary with HP 12% from seed and it worked until micro-organisms in the air and water; what distillation has missed the "vocs" the cardon didn't catch. Caused them to later on because of free radicals and this is why high levels of HP can cause mutations and cancer when it steals atoms by ripping them apart. "Call the bomb swaddles" when mixed correctly or 'incorrectly 💣 lol 28th Today Little VT of the 5L jerry can starter pots (DiY) I think this process is allowing for optimization of Air/feed pks. I'm at least 2-3weeks ahead from a normal grow because of this style growing. I know, I know, I lost 3weeks from the first failed attempts. But it's okay 👍 I'm okay with that. Now I know and it's logged in the dairy for future reference I can quickly glance over before I start another one. Like hey 👋 "Time is valuable, read ya diaries" honestly, I don't have dementia i have human forgetfulness/error. Its still in the experimentental phase. Took tf out the propagator 31/01/2024 Nothing much to see I've did everything for TF and still looking droopy. Exactly the same as MS. I think she'll grow out of it! 01/02/2025 I know, I know what ya thinking, it looks like spider mites on MS only leaf but honestly I think its of the h202. I deffolled her only leaf. Sprayed it with h202 and no reactions happen. No mites. The Future TF is looking much more lively. Oh well. No speed-run this time round! I shouldn't of took 4wks off from growing. Rhythmic nature of thing and getting in the swing off it. It's easy to do but I am always in two minds with everything I do. I can't help but cause "Self sabotage' every time I get to ahead of myself, by running my mouth 💯 blah blah blah; always beside myself. Aye' they say "God is next to Cleanliness" if that's true it'll be impossible for me to be beside myself haha 😄 Its all fun and games 🎮 🙃 01/02/2025 Midday Light Increased: 560watts (max) for this power supply. I disconnected the 1200watts one for each light is 600watts. It's currently half-power with 600watts max for two lights at 300watts each. Better than having mishaps with the full power supply 1200 being turned up accidently say in a not ventilated enough little tent. I'd rather pass on that anxiety 🙃 Plants: Under jerry cans with dli at 20. This should by dinfintion let them gather themselves for 3days; while the sun is blazing outside the can. Even though I could lower the light. I think the high light intensity outside the cans the plants know. Midday VT MS looks likes shes a clone 😳 👀 but she ain't! One day I will get these protocols right. But atm ; atlas, it's all in jest n fun! MS defiantly looks like a clone but she's not; i have taken pictures since she hatched everyday 03/02/2025 Midday Freaky Pablo and The future 2 germinated Sprayed with weak solution of Hydroclonic Acid + h202 very mild. Now the fun begins!

Hey folks. Into week 16 (week 7 into flower) and the ladies are doing great! Again putting on some mass! Temps have been optimal hover around 12-25degs, night to day respectively. They are starting to stink up nice, lots of pine, kushy undertones and a hint of pepper! Sounds and smells insane. Its not loud yet but the aromas hanging out on the deck are amazing with a gentle breeze! They are packing on some serious mass and producing an amazing amount of resin. Hope you guys enjoy the vids and pics. Keep the peace :) Chief Keif

Buds everywhere…the smell is also coming along. I gave her too much tiger bloom which is noticeable on her leaf tips but the benefits are worth it. I had an attack of the aphids trying to destroy the stem but I pulled out the spray and got rid of them. She takes training really well and bounces back from the pest attack quite nicely. I am also impressed with the way she leafed out after the defoliation.

All growing well! She's taking the soul blend well and fattening up nicely. No kidding on the smell, it's very clearly an "old gym sock" smell... who knows what mutt strain she is. Any estimates on the final dry weight?

Una planta que necesita bastante tiempo para madurar, tiene un olor dulce y afrutado con toques citricos y unos tonos a melocotón. Le ha faltado luz durante las primeras semanas y eso ha influido en el resultado funal.
