NOTES:
Keeping the pH between 5,8-6,0 and EC at around 1,4-1,6 depending on system. EC at 1,5 seems to be optimal and my measurements are staying pretty steady at that level. Humidity is lowered to around 50% if I can.
The tops are now at around 45-60cm height from the soil.
Continuing the last heavier defoliation/pruning process that I started yesterday at the end of 2nd flowering week. I saw no signs of mold or any other issues as I went through the plants.
After this week I'm going to change the nutrient solutions on the tanks and fill them with fresh nutrients with minor changes: Dropping the amount of Grow from 1,5ml to 0,5ml and increasing the amount of Bloom from 1,5ml to 2,5ml. After the change I'm only going to refill the tanks without adding any Grow and will instead increase the amount of Bloom to 3ml. Propably a one more change of fresh nutrients until flushing with Final Solution prior harvesting.
Day64 (19.12.)
Some more defoliation focusing on the upper growth revealing bud sites below them and keeping off the moisture. Already got a trash bag almost full of leaves since they've been pretty bushy plants on average.
Day65 (20.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process.
Day66 (21.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process, pretty satisfied with the results so far. Light penetration and airflow have increased greatly so I don't have to worry that much about humidity or possible mold any longer.
Each strain has started flowering, all plants are females and buds have started to develop. Defoliating didn't seem to stress the plants as much as I thought it would.
Day67 (22.12.)
Day68 (23.12.)
Refilled and added some nutrients with a stronger Bloom/Grow -ratio (~4:1) and left my girls to enjoy the Christmas Holidays as I did. I'll be gone for around three days, after that I'll change to new fresh nutrients as I mentioned before.
One Ayahuasca Purple seems to be ahead of others, and a few other ones have clearly started to develop some buds too, rest of the plants are following closely behind. Each strain has some truly astonishing individuals, and I think Ayahuasca's have shown most variety between different plants. Overall everything looks pretty good I think. Hopefully can say the same after a couple of days as I come back.
Happy holidays everyone!
Day69 (24.12.)
Day70 (25.12.)
I added another Led light to my tent just before the lights turned off. Everything looks amazing!

Se aplicó una defoliación a todas las hojas amarillas y bajas que aún quedaban para ir limpiando un poco lo que no traerá frutos. Seguimos, cada vez queda menos 👽

Very easy strain to grow. I grew the White Critical Express previous to this grow, I really liked it and wanted to try growing an Autoflower so I went for the Critical 2.0 and it was worth the grow.

Showing a bit under 2 weeks of growth in this slot.
I water every 2 days. But on the 3rd, the plant gets dramatic. Haha. Seriously 1 extra day without water and she freaks. Obviously she perked right back up after feeding and all is well. Down sides of growing a massive plant in a tiny container I guess.
Just 6 days later from the drought day, I'm noticing crazy bulking of flower. The mother plant that this clone came from took a bit longer to get to this point. The mother plant did not get this much stress during vegetation either.
Also am using UVb. And I have to say I'm noticing a massive difference in trichomes compared to the mother plant that didn't get any UVb. Trichs came in sooner and look thicker. I took a look with jewelers loop on older fan leaves and even they have tiny little trichomes. Can't say it raises the potency of it but it definitely adds more.
Stopped feeding anything with nitrogen in it around week 3 of flower. Noticing some slight yellowing already from it. Maybe I cut of N a bit too early. Should have continued through week 4. Now I know.
I feed Recharge once a week. I like to think it helps as I do notice slight differences a few days after using it. I have gotten rid of root rot before with it. Or so I believe.

In the end I was pretty happy and surprised about the dense and hard buds! Especially when I think about the way we had to move this plant in a setup that was completely crap except the LEDs.

A pretty small plant with huge potential if I had a bunch of the same plant I could have moved the light closer this was the shortest plant in the tent and was kinda far from the light. When I was wet trimming the buds I realized the are really dense still and super dank they have some huge tricomb heads. Definitely a plant you could have some really good hash with just the trim. The plant smells good some fruit gunk and a little gas smell but a strong pungent smell for sure

A lot of spreading this week. They basically doubled in size if not more and are now starting to grow up. Due to this incredible growth I've cut some leaves of the bottom; they've just gotten over grown by other leaves and the top to let more light in.

Week 9 started with having to bring down tent once again it was only for one day it did happen to rain lightly that night honestly plants are resilient af they have been thrown a lil bit of everything an they bounce back no problem all deficiencies it had in Earlier weeks seem to go away right away buds are just stacking up nice.. I do notice the plant in 7 gal fabric pot is bigger than 5 gal pot.. also all my training to keep it spread out kinda goes out the window everytime I have to remove scrog net..we are about halfway there..gonna flower for about 8-10 weeks

Day 15 added grow. Feeding 1.5L per plant which gives a little run off. Pot drying out every 3/4 days and growing about an inch daily atm, big changes to come over the next 7-10 days really looking forward to seeing these grow taller.
Day 20, all 3 plants now 9-10”. Expecting them all to double over the next week. More LST on all 3 plants and a feed of just over 1.5l which gives a small run off. No more voodoo juice or b52.
Next feed I will introduce bloom along side grow. Very happy with the progress so far, no deficiency’s atm. So far so good

Weekly update for these girls. They got a defoliated and lollipopped this week. Also went full on into preflower showing pistols and flower sites everywhere. Over all they're growing like champs. Happy Growing

Entered diary of the month for the first time here on GD. It’s been a good run thanks to Ethos Genetics and Front Row AG Nutrients.
Grow diaries has been kinds shitty lately. I’ve tried my best to upload as many good photos as possible.
I know I grow a little differently than most here on grow diaries. Push the plants as hard as you can, lots of heat/humidity/co2 and high EC. My motto, if you’re gonna grow, harvest as much as you can with the space you have.
Overall this was one of my best runs in a while. Deep orange and cream/cake smells and vigorous growth made this a great strain.
