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.

Plants started growing very fast. 20 hours light a day and 140 ml water for 2 plants so 35 ml each plant. (70ml -35ml one plant- morning, and 70ml -35ml one plant evening). From Monday I will start giving 200ml water 100ml in the morning and then the rest in the evening. Ventilation almost 24 hours, They are getting bushy and the color looks healthy green. I am excited. Purple Punch ( the right one) does not have the smell but the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe started smelling from the 3rd week, it is not strong, it is smooth, enjoyable. I still use trigger spray but I stopped triggering directly on the plant to avoid any fungee or toxicity, I just keep the soil moist. I surrounded them with kitchen foil around the lamp to have a more effective light. It reflects the light and the light goes everywhere. This step has been done because I have only the 60w LED each plant so I try to provide the maximum strength this way, and by keeping close distance also. The lamp is not hot so it ain't gonna burn the plant I had checked it before. I just purchased today a 600w LED because these plants look so good so I wanna provide the best circumstances for them. 4th-week 4th day I a just waiting for my delivery my 600 W grow LED light will come. From today I started watering with 50ml each plant 2 times a day so all together 200ml a day. Plus I always use trigger spray for the soil to be kept wet. They are looking better and better. Nice color and bushy appearance. Wonderful. I realized some holes on the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe's leaf but there is no insect I was checking. I do not really know the reason for that. Tonight I will set up the new 600 W LED so I am changing the current 120W. Big Step forward! It is not that easy that I thought, the lamp is great but the temperature raised up a lot, so needed to buy a fan also and the humidity went down. It is not easy to find the proper solution to be acceptable, good temperature and humidity at the same time. So I decided to program a 6/2 schedule, so 6 hours light on and the fan always with 15 min more, and 2 hours off so I do provide 18 hours light and 6 hours darkness but it is divided. The plants can rest after every six hours and use the energy they received. Last day of the 4th week, LST has been done with the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe, both are growing rapidly, let's see what the 5th week brings! End of he week Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is 25cm, Purple Punch is 20cm๐

Week 4 flower are still looking great. Buds are fattening up nicely through the whole tent but these ladies are especially nice. My time trying Seedsman seeds and I am very impressed. I have more seedsman stains I will be trying moving forward. No top dress until next week when they will get their final feeding.

1 week left until i flip, the blue dream and white runtz are lagging behind but the pineapple express, and ghost train are begging for flower!
day 54, and what a beautiful first grow it has been so far, these girls have responded well to all the punishment i could dish out in training and have responded with a beautiful even canopy. cannot wait to see them flower
day 55, midday, lights are off for the next 36 hours to expedite the flowering process.

Starting off week 9 now. Pistols starting to change to amber. Buds still fattening up. Did notice some other plants starting to have a bit of a calcium deficiency as well as the center plant that's been acting up a bit. Added 1 tablespoon of gypsum to 4 out of the 5 plants. Continuing to use just rain water for now. Hopefully in a few more weeks it will be harvest time.

Weekly Update on the Runtz ๐ฑ
Hey everyone! Just wanted to share how the Runtz is coming along. She's thriving under the care of the Plagron nutrients ๐ฟ, reacting beautifully to every feed. Since my last update, sheโs sprouted several new nodes and is showing incredible growth!
https://plagron.com/en/tools/grow-schedule-calculator
Sheโs definitely growing like a sativa ๐ณ, with those long, stretchy branches. To manage that, Iโm planning to enforce some solid training techniques to keep her short and wide, just the way I like it ๐ชโจ.
Iโm loving the whole experience so far, itโs been such a rewarding journey ๐. Iโve attached plenty of pictures for you all to check out ๐ธ. Please drop a like, leave a comment, and share any feedback or tips youโve got! ๐๐

Iโm a week late posting on these as I was a week ahead in the timeframe for this diary because of the new Germination option. We are caught up now day wise anyway, and all is good. Finally got her into the flowering tent and into my 5 gal RDWC system under a 1000w HPS on a light rail mover. We flipped her to flowering as soon as we got her in because my DWC systems tend to grow big ass plants. Lol so Iโve decided to flip without much of my screen full and let the stretch fill it. I will also be hitting them at 1000w rite from the start instead of trying to turn it down and get it closer to save power consumption. I will be starting with the light already up as high as it can be at about 3 ft above the screen. Iโve also shortened the span of my rail mover and set my pauses shorter at about 10 sec. with the light at 1000w we get a better spread out on the light meter and donโt need to move the light as far. Iโm also going to keep tucking till they completely stop stretching in an effort to keep them as low as possible. We also had some excessive nitrogen build up a couple weeks ago and dropped the ec way down to 0.2 for the next week. They responded quick and went in the opposite direction very fast and before I new it we had nitrogen deficiency. Lol so we got them sitting around 0.75 EC now and they are coming back around. Well thatโs it for this week, Cheers! ๐จ

Day 70 ..... lookin good.... she stable in flower now... neuts good, and stable... got her into a beautiful rutinue for the rest of the flower.....
really happy with how it's going, she has a long flower 65-70 days i think.... thats 8-10 weeks in flower, so maybe 4-6weeks to go (6-20 dec) ........
she's going to be alot of work but will be well worth it, tasted her alittle, just the trim that had to come off, was enough to taste..... (dried the trim, curin in jar, try to add pic if i remember, lol)
was a new experience goin thru the difficulties of transition to flower in dwc iws system .......
listed general nuets that i am using, however the 1-2 lt mix i put in every day or 2 is mixed up at the time, and is specific every time to ensure the tank remains at 5.8-6.4 ph-1-2k ppm....
i've stopped using the ppm meter for accuracy and use it only to get a general reading... in fact the ph meter and ec/ppm meters are not really workin properly any more, lol
the blood bone and all the different stuff that i'm using puts alot of the readings as false/wrong ..... i can see where a nido system would be handy, maybe if i had the cash....
i gotta do all this the old fashioned way... elbow grease, hard work... haha
this is some crazy news... random unknown mazar in that iws dwc pot... it's female as of the 2 hairs i saw this morning.... haha...
so i'm thinkin, i may be able to put the mazar and ssh in main tent with all resources used....
that would put both mazar and ssh in iws dwc perfect pots in perfect conditions with max light and resources.....
might do that, it would increase both flowering plants to
280 W leds... .... the reason mentioned this
is because i can see she needs more light, the coloured light panels are poor quality cheapo..... gotta get my home made kick azz lights back in there.... lol

In questa settimana la crescita รฉ stata veloce anche grazie ai fertilizzanti. LST ho dovuto sistemarlo ogni giorno perchรฉ continuavano a crescere nuove gemme e lโapicale tornava sempre su. Il tronco si รฉ irrobustito tanto.

So here it is. The story of the six shooter. I left these ladies to their own device with very minimal LST and not topping for the single cola effect. I really like topping my autos personally just before flower but thatโs just me. This strain has thre very consistent characteristics. Rock hard flowers, super floral smelling and as many sugary leaves as Any other Iโve seen. They did great with the nutrients I gave them and are a fan favorite for sure. In the photos are a moon rock I made for fun and all aspects of the final plant harvested.
