She has a major lean on from over watering and is supported enough for now. The single finger leaves are developed and she is working on the next set of 3 fingered leaves.
Conditions have been good for the week.
Back soon.
Take it easy.

In week 8, she has been growing nicely. i think i will stay in Veg stage for 1 week further before turn to 12/12 because i want her to grow a bit more after she was stunned for a while. i also increase a ratio of nutrients for my plant and i think i will increase a bit more on next feed. if anyone has a recommendation feel free to let me know. Thank a million in advance π
in front of her i have a Blue Dream clone. i decided to do like a little bonsai in 1 gallon pot and turn to FLO with my Glookies π

things are still on the go..Looking at the tricomes the are still clear with hints of cloudy.. Coming along pretty well. Im just watering with plain water now and just enough for a light runoff. Ec is low already and I don't think I can get it to anything less. Just doing routine maintenence this week. There has been no change in the colour of the leaves and this is the 11th day of. plain water.. Its all a waiting game.. I also changed the light schedule to a 11-13...... its supposed to help in trichome ripening... I hope. π The vanilla Kush looks ready but I'm not sure. If anyone has an opinion on how much longer please share

This was a good grow, I was hoping for a bigger phenotype but overall Iβm happy. She smells sweet and dank, all her flowers are pretty dense and compact. She has good resistance to stress and humidity considering her structure.

What happened to the Purple Kosher? It grew several bananas and since I don't want to throw it away, I tried to cut off every banana I could find. For two days now it didn't grow more bananas, but it feels like the booster dosis was wasted on banana growth :(
The Lemon Mandarin is going really strong with thick buds for this flowerday and it smells really strong like mandarins. Almost like you peeled one inside the tent.
The Bruised Banana has a soft, fruity smell and the Papaya Sherbert probably takes 1 - 2 weeks more than the other 3 plants.
Fertilizers were 1 g of PflanzengeflΓΌster on 10 L
Plant Booster 3g on 10 L
Weedtamine 10g on 10 Liters

On its full flush now, buds are coated in THC and the Aromas are beautiful, petty it was as planned 'seed to smoke in 60 days'.
Run off was 108ppm on Saturday when introducing straight RO water. Will be chopping in the next 72 hours.
.
Chopped the girl down amd I must say, I'm impressed with her yield πͺ got shit loads of pocorns and lower bids which I'll be turning to hash.

Moin liebe Growgemeinschaft!
Die dritte Woche beginnt. Leider musste ich aufgrund von einigen UmstΓ€nden die kleinen auf Urlaub schicken π.
In ca zwei Wochen sollten sie aber wieder Zuhause sein denn ist auch etwas mehr Platz fΓΌr die kleinen da.
Soweit entwickeln sie sich normal sind etwas gespargelt aber das ist noch in Ordnung fΓΌr die UmstΓ€nde.
Gegossen werden sie mit angepasstem Wasser auf PH 6. Werde die Milkyways die Tage in 11l Schuhe stecken, sollte noch nicht so schlimm sein da sie ja noch nicht den topf voll gewurzelt haben.

Day 56 Flowering: This week has been a great week to understand the difference between strains. now close to finishing , it is clear to see how different the bids can look to each other dependant on lineages too.
Six shooter has really surprised me with her rapid gains in bud girth. She has seemed to be a lot smaller and somehow stunted for most of the grow. This week has changed her completely, even down to her lower buds which also look a lot thicker than a few days ago. with approx 12 days to go, she could be one of the contenders for yield. She is also very frosty looking now with a nice sweet hit to her.
Strawberry Pie is really starting to colour her buds up now and even though they are not joined up colas , each clump looks to be fairly dense and heavy. The buds under direct light at the top look less chunky than the lowers with her too which is a first for me. The light is penerrating lower than I thought due to the structure she has. There are some nice looking lowers just putting new pistils out so she may go a little longer than her 8 weeks stated.
Mexican Airline is my secret favourite this run. Hwr bids are stunning looking spiky ,bursts of colour now and with a little longer to go , I wonder how she will look with even more ripening and fattening out. She is a very tall plant and i will train better for the next time I grow this strain. I have had to support a couple of the limbs now as they want to fall with the weight of the buds . I am on standby with more yoyo's if I need them. lol
These have been a pleasure to grow as expected and I am now popping some Fast buds Cream cookies auto ( x2) to run next. I dont doubt they will be great to grow. be safe and free growmies.

She's looking gorgeous, very healthy thanks to my Florians living organics,she's has everything she needs, I'm dealing with some problems with fungus gntas due to all tje organic matter that there is in tje soil so I'll be fixing that problem using nematodes steinernema feltiae, fungus gnats eat you plants roots and all the nuts of your soil, so it's important for you to fight them as fast as possible. Enjoy the diary! βοΈπβ€οΈβοΈ

Ok, lets think about this logically - why are the leaves turning brown? it looks like a Calcium/Phosphorus issue, A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS ,
is it a deficiency??? Unlikely in Hydro as the solution is more effective as there are no contaminants, so this leads me to believe its a lockout, what can cause this ? 2 things = A) Too Much Nutrient Potassium or B) ph is too low - SO to rectify this, i have added more water to the reservoir and raised the ph to 6.3
As i am using more water in the reservoir its entirely possible that when the water goes down,even though the EC stays the same the proportional concentrations of each nutrient can change - for example EC pen says 2.0 when i first fill with 20 litres, the plant drinks 4 litres of water and consumes lots of bloom A+B so when i put my pen in two days later the 16 litres of solution still reads 2.0 but there is a higher proportion of PK.
Of course it could always be option C) these plants eat phosphorus for breakfast and need more ..π
I have checked roots they all ok
Wednesday- changed solution , made it slightly weaker EC 1.7 ph 6.2-3
Thursday I had a little chat on Instagram with mammoth , i think they might need less than usual
Saturday - noticed some yellowing on the little plant , itβs a confusing as th3 other plants are all using the same nutrients and they are loving life , it might be the buckets , I am much preferring the size of the 35 litre ones , and the root structure is perfect , because the 45 litre boxes are more rectangular than square the roots are sort of sideways .
Still waiting for some purple on the tall one π€
ITS VERY IMPORTANT IN DWC - Do not automatically think you need to add nutrients , in DWC itβs so much more efficient that less is more , 99% of the time itβs overdone it , normally the tips go brown first , but itβs some circumstance s The concentration can increase without you knowing , FIRST change solution with a little bit less , I usually go to 1.6-1.7 EC TOTAL and 6.3 ph that is a universal solution that provides enough without overdoing it .

Left them alone this week except for a watering. First strong one I gave them. Found a mushroom in my soil a couple days later. Think I might have disturbed him because he died on me.
