Day 76 - Watered her w/8L 6.6PH RO, 3tsp bloom, 1tsp boost, .25tsp bloom booster Day 77,78,79 - Just sat and admired her Day 80 - Watered her w/8L 6.6PH RO, 3tsp bloom, 1tsp boost,.25tsp bloom booster Day 81 - Just sat and admired her Day 82 - Flushed with 6 gallons of 6.3PH RO Other Thoughts: I've got 3 very different-looking girls even though they're all the same strain, stayed in the same tent, and were fed from the same bucket... weird! Super disappointed with the outcome of gamma, gonna use her for bubble hash and BHO (●'◡'●) - The last flush was the final flush, I'm chopping 'em down the second I can tell they're dry. Left the lights on 24x7 to help achieve that goal sooner.

Tag 22: 🌱: LST wurde etwas nachjustiert, um die Verschattung zu minimieren. Leider habe ich dabei eines der größeren Fächerblätter eines der Haupttriebe beschädigt (Stiel gebrochen) und musste dieses nun doch entfernen. 💧: Die Erde war trocken, daher wurde gegossen. Den Angaben meines Wasserversorgers und meinen Berechnungen zur Folge, habe ich das CalMag weggelassen und nur 0,25g/l Bittersalz hinzugefügt. Auch das Bio Grow wurde wieder auf die ursprünglichen 50% des Düngeplans reduziert. Insgesamt gab es ca. 2,5l bis zu einem ersten kleinen Drain. 💡: Die Beleuchtung wurde hochgeregelt, auf einen DLI von ca. 40 bei ca. 40cm Abstand zur Pflanze. Update: Abstand auf 35cm und Leistung etwas verringert (weiterhin DLI ~40), da sonst Temperatur zu hoch steigt. Tag 24: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt (leider etwas verspätet, aber ging nicht anders). Entfernt wurden die unteren und somit innersten und äußersten neuen Triebe an den 4 größeren "Haupttrieben" und deren Fächerblätter. Um den Schock nicht zu groß zu machen, dürfen die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter noch 2-3 Tage dran bleiben. Zusätzlich wurde das LST noch etwas angepasst. 💧: Die Erde ist noch nass. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 26: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt und die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter entfernt. Zusätzlich wurde das LST noch etwas angepasst. 💧: Die Erde ist noch nass. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 27: 🌱: Es ist der Beginn von Tag 27. Es wurden nur kleinere LST Anpassungen vorgenommen und das Blattwerk etwas sortiert um die Ausleuchtung zu verbessern. Die kleine Lady denkt anscheinend bereits daran in die Blütephase zu wechseln, zumindest zeigen sich die ersten zarten Pistillen. 💧: Die Erde ist noch immer feucht. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 28: 🌱: Das LST wurde für ein einheitlich hohes Blätterdach erneut leicht angepasst. Ich überlege in den kommenden Tagen auch noch einige der unteren Fächerblätter, die mittlerweile ziemlich im Schatten liegen, zu entfernen. Zunächst jedoch schaue ich, was der Stretch die nächsten Tage so bringt. So langsam macht sich auch ein leichter Duft bemerkbar. 💧: Die Erde war trocken, daher wurde gegossen. Heute gab es insgesamt 3 Liter der gleichen Wachstumsmischung wie letzte Woche. Das Bittersalz scheint auf jeden Fall zu helfen. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert.

I put the plants into an NFT system couple weeks ago. I could have waited a bit longer for the plants to develop a stronger root system before placing the rockwool cubes into NFT but I was being impatient because of the slow start and wanted to get the plants under proper light. Now two weeks later they are growing well with good root development. I switched the lights to flowering cycle about a week ago so they should start stretching soon. No preflowers yet.

February 23, 2021 (Week 7, Day 50, Flower 1): It's the first day of flower! The plants slept for 12 hours last night and will keep that up until harvest. Still seeing pretty crazy growth even for the 12 hours of darkness they went through. Grew about another .5". Excited to see how much these things stretch. Soil was very dry this morning so I watered with 4l of water per plant with 3ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 2ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 1ml/l Big Bud + 1ml Cal-Mag Plus + 1/4 tsp/gal Humboldt Nutrients Big Up Flower Powder with a pH of 5.8. Runoff pH of 6.3. I will start watering with a 6.0 solution going forward. I also top dressed with about an inch of fresh Roots Organics Lush soil. Plants are looking great. Not seeing any problems currently. I'll keep a close eye on them as they transition. Turned down humidity another 5% today. Averaging 50% rH and 73℉. February 24, 2021 (Week 7, Day 51, Flower 2): Plants look great. Soil still moist from watering. Tilled half inch of topsoil. Averaging 50% rH and 73℉. Nothing else for today. February 25, 2021 (Week 7, Day 52, Flower 3): No complaints at all. These plants are as healthy as they can be from what I can tell. The growth sites are starting to do some funky stuff and everything is kind of starting to "clump" together. Really interesting to watch this process happen, as I've always wondered exactly how the buds begin to form. I was greeted with a very sweet smell when I opened my tent this morning, nothing strong yet. To encourage further vertical growth I've removed all LST ties except for two from Gelato 1 and Unknown 2. I adjusted the ties on Unknown 1 because it's already starting to stretch and I need it to slow down just a bit while the others catch up. Soil is semi-moist this morning but the pots are still pretty heavy, so I'll water in a day or two. Averaging 50% rH and 72℉. February 26, 2021 (Week 7, Day 53, Flower 4): Pots were light today so watered with 4l per plant with 3ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 2ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 1ml/l Big Bud + 1ml Cal-Mag Plus at 6.0 pH. Runoff sitting at 6.4 pH. Defoliated one more node on each growth stem - the lollipop look is coming around. It will probably be my last defoliation like this. From now on I'll only pluck fan leaves that get in the way of bud sites. Unknown 1 grew over 2" in the last 24 hours. The stretch is getting real. I removed all remaining LST ties from Gelato 1 and Unknown 2. I redid the LST ties on Unknown 1 in an attempt to control its growth, but at this point I feel like it's just going to be a lanky plant and there's nothing I can do about it. I'll do my best to keep them as level as I can. Also, I took off Unknown 2's stem cast today and it healed really, really well. I have never seen a plant do this, but it filled itself in with tissue that is soft to the touch, and there's only a slight split at the top. It's looking really great. My wife noticed the smell of the plants this morning for the first time - so that's a good sign! Plants are starting to put off a lot of their own humidity, so I haven't refilled my humidifier in days. Averaging 50% rH and 72℉. Happy Friday everyone! 👻 February 27, 2021 (Week 7, Day 54, Flower 5): Soil is still moist - tilled half inch of topsoil. Overnight it appears Gelato 1 and Unknown 2 are doing their damnedest to catch up with Unknown 1 - they both grew about 2". Plants are looking great and are definitely starting to stretch! Averaging 50% rH and 70℉. February 28, 2021 (Week 7, Day 55, Flower 6): Top soil is pretty dry, but the pots are still heavy. I'll hold off watering for a day or two. The last 24-hour period I think I saw the biggest difference in the plants so far. Each growth stem stretched a ton on each plant, but at varying degrees. The canopy is suddenly uneven, but I think trying to keep everything even at this point will be futile. I will let them go and install the SCROG net soon if the colas start growing too differently from one another. The stipules on every plant tripled in length overnight so I think the plants are definitely getting with the new 12-hour schedule. All the plants are starting to shoot off tons of pre-flowers and pistils now. They're in the swing of things now. Averaging 50% rH and 70℉. March 1, 2021 (Week 7, Day 56, Flower 7): Soil is dry but pots still have some weight. Will probably water tomorrow. Plants are looking fantastic. Canopy is stretching all over the place. Averaging 50% rH and 70℉. Looking forward to next week! Hopefully we'll start to see some flowers poking through soon!

Going steady this week! Gonna go a couple more weeks and then flip to 12/12. Added 2 new clones to the tent as well, 2x Indian Rhino x The Matrix. Curious to see the differences between strains and also differences in growth between seed/clone. I won’t be keeping track of those 2 in this diary though. Thanks for reading, happy growing!

Another solid week in the books, and the last one UKBS 2 will spend in the tent. Today I intended to start hardening the selected plants that will go outside, but when watering UKBS 2 I found it was growing roots out the bottom of the pot and into it's drain tray. So, I had to replant it into the 15gal and will be taking it in and out of the back door until the weather's nice enough overnight to just leave it out. The Carl plant I had taken out to harden was very pissed off with me for doing so, and perked up near-immediately when I took it back in. It's too bad it doesn't like the outside as it's going to be spending a good amount of time there. I treated with diatomaceous earth in an attempt to not bring any unwanted insects into the tent. Both UKBS 2 and Carl 2 will be going in and out every day for approximately the next month while temperatures improve. Inside the tent, UKBS 1 seems very happy to finally have some light. UKBS 2 was very large and encroaching inside there, and blocked nearly all of its light. More updates will come throughout the week, as always. -4/17/2021 - Noticed a small hole at the main stem near the top node on UKBS 2. Dusted with diatomaceous a little bit just in case, will keep a very close eye on it. Hoping it's not a caterpillar or stem borer, and just a breakage. -4/20/2021 - Happy 4/20! UKBS 2 is loving the window spot, and life is good. Thanks for swingin by.

Dutch Passion - Melonads Runtz, 60 days since we planted the seed in soil, and she’s now standing tall at 85 cm, looking absolutely explosive! This girl is thriving, with vibrant growth and strong structure. We’ve been feeding her with Xpert Nutrients, and you can see the results – lush, healthy leaves and a promising amount of bud sites. It’s clear she’s loving the care and attention, and we’re excited to see what the next weeks bring!

Got hydro halos setup because I need to be able to go away for work for a few nights, Was actually really easy to setup and works awesome, I got most the parts plus all my nutes from my local hydro store. I'm using cocoforcannabis.com as a guide for most of this grow and his site includes details on how to setup an auto watering system. At this point I'm still using Professors Go Green for cal-mag and following the GP3 feed chart to mix nutes to the right ratio and then diluting with cal-mag water to target EC (300-400EC for wk 1). Some of the plants had clawing leaves and were really dark green - I read that this could be caused by nitrogen toxicity and I'm concerned this may be due to the Go Green as it seems to be intended as more of a deficiency fix rather than a regular use cal-mag supplement for coco. Some of the leaves on one of the plants started getting rust spots like calcium deficiency, Canna Coco comes pre-buffered and I was adding Go Green so it had plenty, I think the likely case is that nitrogen toxicity may be blocking calcium intake also. I intend to change to Green Planets Pro-Cal which has low nitrogen and is made to work with their line of nutes. Also we named the girls! My roommate and I were pretty baked if you can't tell...

Was another pretty good week in the books both in and out of the tent. More and more branches are being weighted down by colas, and had to be tied up. UKBS 1 continues to frost up like a winter morning. I'm doing my best to keep airflow moving in the tent, mainly in and around UKBS 1 as it's the denser of the two. Carl 1 was having a little bit of an issue but I believe it's been mostly resolved as of now as I've given it a pure watering in between the latest feedings. Outside (inside, most of the time. haha) The plants are doing quite well, save for the high winds that magically spring up whenever they go outside. At this point I'm basically forced to purchase a greenhouse or something of that sort so they don't blow away completely. Timelapse is out for the week, as per usual. EOS Rebel T5 shots will probably come tomorrow or the next day. -6/18/2021 - Keep fuckin' up the watering schedule. Carl 1 is not pleased. These kinds of whoopsies shouldn't be happening in flower, especially not this late. Gotta get on top of things. - In other news, took some shots with the EOS Rebel T5. Hope you'll enjoy. -6/23/2021 - Built a greenhouse kinda thing. Should keep the wind off the plants well enough while allowing a wee bit for airflow. Hoping all goes well.

Buenas, las plantas ya pasaron la fase de pre-floración, justo a los 21 días le hice la última defoliación. He intentado dejarle solo un par de nudos o tres, por arriba, estilo lollipopping, está técnica de poda agresiva, está mas vista en América, no tanto por aquí, por España. Estaremos atento a ver como le va esta poda a este cultivo🙌 Le aumenté la base de fertilizante, ya que en esta fase, la planta necesita más alimento, para cambiar su metabolismo, para florecer en óptimas condiciones. Ahora comienza el engorde de la flor, espero veros de nuevo la semana que viene por aquí😊 Un saludo y buenos humos!

Day 2 in the pots they came out beautifully with their seed as a hat! Day 4 they were all 3 1cm out of the ground, they were born! Day 6 is almost over today and 2/3 seeds go delicious. Both of them already have their first set of real leaves and you can see the next set coming, oewhhh. Unfortunately there is one that I think is less gene/old seed. It sits around half the height and the lobs are almost closed, but hopefully it is still hard 💪 🏼

Hello Diary, Purple Lemonade has reached the end of its journey, its last week because I harvested it two days after taking the photo. 73 days since I put the seeds in the ground. 65 days since the start of the vegetation. Really very fast, although that has somehow become the standard on my little "Farm". But I am still fascinated by how quickly a plant goes through its cycle when it has the most ideal conditions. I don't necessarily mean myself here, I try to give the plants the best I can and know how. As you can see in the photos, the result is impressive. The flowers are large and showy, the branches bend under their weight. The main cola is especially noticeable because it is covered in flowers full of trichomes that create a frost effect. The smell is very intense at this stage, the whole room smells like plants when I open the grow box. Watering was standard, every three days. This week I stopped adding nutrients, I just lower the p.H. to 6.0 and water the plants with clean water. After taking the photo, it was in the grow box for two more days to drink all the water from the soil so that the drying would be more efficient. Before cutting, I removed all the leaves from the plant to also make drying easier and have less work to trim the dried flowers. But also to prevent the formation of potential mold. After cutting, I left it upside down in the grow box to dry. Now there is that last step to see how much Purple Lemonade really rewarded me. See you when that happens. Here's what the last week looked like. 19/09/2024 - Day 57. Watering. I prepared 9 liters of water, lowered the pH to 6.0 and used that amount to water all three plants on the farm. 22/09/2024 - Day 60. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 24/09/2024 - Day 62. I watered them all with 1.5 liters of water each plant so that they were fresh for the photo shoot. 25/09/2024 - Day 63. End of the last, 9th week since Purple Lemonade began its journey. Photo shoot. 27/09/2024 - Day 65. Purple Lemonade has been harvested. That's almost all from me for this diary, there is still the final report that follows after drying and testing. Thank you all once again for your support and comments.

TODO VA GENIAL, MUCHISIMA RESINA Y OLOR EN ESTA ETAPA. HE NOTADO QUE ALGUNAS HOJITAS SE ESTAN QUEMANDO EN LAS PUNTAS Y DOBLANDOSE HACIA ARRIBA, SUPONGO QUE FUE DEMASIADA COMIDA. DE TODOS MODOS ES MINIMO, NADA DE QUE PREOCUPARSE POR EL MOMENTO, VOY A HACER DOS RIEGOS CON AGUA Y LUEGO VOLVEMOS A FERTILIZAR!
