As I did the flushing in day 68 I was watching the trichomes and on day 87 I could see 25-35% amber so I decided to cut it. I cut the whole plant on the base and hang them all to dry. For this reason I will update my findings later when it gets dry and trimmed. So far really happy with the results. It won’t yield much but the quality is impressive

Since sprouting above ground I've been top watering RO water until the roots hit the water. I also covered the net pots with reflective film to avoid any light leaking into the rdwc system to avoid any issues later on in the grow. Day 5 - Roots are starting to touch the water so I'm expecting the growth rate to pick up soon 😏 Trol master unit is set up and connected to my light at 40% and on a 18/6 lighting schedule. Very handy unit if I must say. Until the next update

Doing a bit of defoliation thats it Giving all the plants more clear water because i overfeed them. Next time definitely with scrog . Good genetics love it

Actually kind of glad the light fell on her two weeks back - right before flower and you can tell she's about to bush out. I've been diligently defoliating and tying her down at each developing node. Every day i seem to be greeted by new growth. In other words, she responds great in high stress situations! I may top my new Purple Lemonade purposefully since this one responded so well. Not much else to say... God speed fellow growers!!

Day 15 Update : Decided to grab a tape measure to check canopy heights on a whim and discovered that my light was hanging 35 inches from “Cellie” Cereal and Milk . Wowzers 👀! So I raised the plant to be 26 inches from the light that I also dimmed down to about 40% . It works out that I can try to get the most out of the end of flower stretch for the older gal who shall no more than be mentioned for reference to accentuate the great glorious glamorous “Cellie”. The humidity plummeted after I did a major defoliation of the older gals so I adjusted the airflow rate of the lower in-line fan and the upper inline exhaust fan with the carbon filter . I lowered them both to the lowest setting & the humidity returned to “normal” Let me explain my reasonings/thinking behind my adjustments which are experimental at BEST. It’s worth also mentioning without having to preset a single thing on my 70pint Dehumidifier located inside this tent it is legitimately only plugged into my PRESET humidistat controller which is set to 50%-46% RH WITH an alarm on highs of 55% and lows of 43% . In real life what this translates to is when this humidity controller triggers the dehumidifier ON @50%RH immediately the fan of the Dehumidifier begins running. However this does not help the rising humidity that is occurring (it will reach 55%-60.2%RH ). Given a fixed amount of time , the condenser(atleast what it sounds like . .again, it could be anything) turns on . It is when this “condenser” “sounding” component begins working that the humidity IMMEDIATELY plummets down to my low point of 46% So to make a long story short the humidity gets vacuumed to 46%RH & the dehumidifier turns off, bc of the PURPOSEFUL EXPERIMENTAL TWEAKING making all air exchange fans low leveled the humidity slowly but steadily rises to 50%RH then the dehumidifier is triggered on but only the fans initially and the humidity eventually reaches 55%RH-60.2%RH & then the humidity gets all its hair snatched out by the dehumidifier and drops back down to 46%RH. 😼‍💹😼‍💹😼‍💹😼‍💹 with all that said of anybody was even interested per my tents leaf canopy height temperature average good to great OR LITE GREEN TO DARK GREEN VPD for my temperature begins @ 60 & ends @ 52 which is kind of a perfect storm for OUR GIRL “CELLIE” oooooooorrrrrrrrrrr sssssssoooooo I think/hope . She still hasn’t needed watering since being transplanted, she should now ready and willing to stretch those toes and we need the opportunities to top water that soil a few times to make those dry amendments available to her . More pics of later the week coming as we go . . Hopefully . Diligence is a practice Day #17: giving her some water today, no specific amount just until she feels the right amount of “heavy”. She was given 3 different batches of water once ph’d to 6.3 once ph’d to 6.7 one ph’d to 6.5. She’s grown an inch in 2 days. Also swapped out the smart hygrometer system to a different brand . So far it has all the capability I was looking for but I need to run 2 more experiments to know for certain it lives up to my needs and its price tag 😁 Day 18 Update: she grew an inch taller nice 👍 The smart hygrometer system has reported/experience Bluetooth failures twice already(although I don’t know exactly what that means considering I purchased this for it’s Wifi capabilities ) I didn’t think to check it whilst I was away so I cannot yet say If it meets my final expectation/need I bought a soil ph meter & it indicates “my mix” is at 3.1 ph 👀 hmm đŸ€” I’m wondering if this is a must fix or can I get by .eventually she will be transplanted and at that time I can use my new digital soil ph probe to construct her new blend moving forward but I am curious is I mixed another batch at 3 something ph would it matter ? In the beginning I wasn’t ph’ing any of my watering just because I assumed my soil mixture was highly acidic because of the 70ish pecernr peat moss base . I also assumed that it would be acid fixing for the water I put in it and therefore wouldn’t need to ph it and I did just fine just giving plain old tap water when thirsty until I experience VPD issues & in an effort to pinpoint what my exact issue was and how to fix it I of course eliminated all the variables and dialed in on my ph of my feed water and now my soil so it leaves me wondering does the soil need to be relatively 6.1 ph or is the 3.1 I’m flying at alright also . I checked the other 3 currently in here getting through flower & two of them are in the 3’s for ph & one of them is 6.2(the largest of them all) how ever she was the largest of them all always and oddly enough I mixed one big batch for them and transplanted them at the same time so I get two of them having the same ph as “Cellie” but the other that is in ph heaven is an oddball Should I top her here or supercrop later hmm I need to decide my vision for this thing Day 19 Update: ponytailed her youngest internode for about 16hrs she aggressively popped out of it twice ! It didn’t even work for 24hrs when I try it again it’ll be before the internode is so strong . Also rigged up a 16in oscillating wall-fan that currently being held with 2 zip ties , 2 rubber bands , & a smidget of duct tape and MAJORITY OF FAITH keeping it in place . The biggest plus to my added circulation is that I got the 16in fan for ! A win is a win . Pics uploads will be held for the next 3 days until the end of week 3 upload . Drop a thumbs up Day 20 Update : THE FAN FELL! But no one was damaged or injured . I re-rigged it . This time with duct tape , 3 popsicle sticks , 2 heavy duty zip ties & 1 regular strength zip tie . SHES SOLID NOW 😂 I did some solid rigging this time & have videoed my handy work . Also I forgot to turn my A/C back on before leaving the house so temps and humidity skyrocketed and swung for 9 hours until I got home . The temp in the tent was 84.4 and the humidity went from 42.4 to 57.5 to 42 every three mins. Day 21 Update : SHES A PRETTY GIRL. RQS says Cereal Milk is a slightly sativa dominant hybrid but the pheno of this particular seed seems to lean more towards indica I’m not mad at it ! I’m getting more stoked to see what she can do. She still hasn’t received any additional water since day #18.

Day 60F The PM on the cheese has gotten significantly worse in the last few days. I think it may have something to do with the constant humidity spikes every time I water. I haven’t been running my humidifier at all in flower so maybe it’s having trouble keeping the RH up during lights on. Just another reason to follow a daily watering schedule. The cheese and slurricane look fucking disgusting and I’m starting to doubt that a peroxide wash can totally fix it. It worked well for my outdoor crop so it should be fine but this time there is probably 3x the amount. I’ll make sure to really soak the buds and rinse them off good. Bbb#1 is flopping over like crazy from the weight. Too late to stake it up now so hopefully it holds until next week. Starting to foxtail a bit but nothing too bad. It is now 100% done and ready for chop. Bbb#2 is just getting frostier and frostier by the day. The purple fade is really coming along nicely too. Might reveg. It is now 100% done and ready for harvest. Black garlic #1 is finally filling out! I can’t believe it. Never heard of a plant packing weight on like that in week 8. The breeder did mention that it packs on weight later but I’m stunned. Taking her to 9.5 weeks. Black garlic #2 is looking very average. Average color, average size buds, average frost, average smell, probably an average yield. And it’s starting to get a bit of PM. Overall not happy. Will be taking her to 9.5 weeks. Zkittlez #1 has pleasantly surprised me. It was a bushy runt in veg but came through. It’s the third frostiest in the tent, super dense, stacked tight, smells great and looks great. It’s already got a nice amount of amber so it’s 100% ready for chop. Slurricane #4 looks insanely frosty even under all that PM. If I can’t wash it off it’s going in the trash. I want to chop this asap but have to cut everything at once unfortunately. It’s 100% ready for harvest. Badazz OG cheese is looking like a decent yielder but doesn’t have much else going for it. I think it still has some filling out to do. I can’t even smell the final profile change yet. The leaves are rotting off very quickly. Taking her 9.5 weeks. I don’t mind harvesting a bit later rather than early. From my outdoor experience, when a plant is picked early it smells like hay and wet grass clippings until it’s been curing for 3 weeks. When I harvest late or at 30-50% amber trichomes it smells like same scent profile it had when growing. Just my experience. I’ve read that the tobacco industry adds calcium and potassium carbonate to their crops to help promote fire holding capacity and to increase the whiteness of ash. Turns out some of the organic amendments I bought last week contain exactly that. I’m going to give each plant a light top dress to see if the tobacco industry is onto something.

8/25 -Plants responded well to the increase on volume of water fed. Im really liking the +50 mLs a feeding (every other day) -Only a few of the oldest leaves have started wilting. This is normal and expected as those leaves have been used and abused the worse. I left them on originally because it seemed the plant was pulling nutrients from those two leaves specifically if there was any kind of deficiency. As I took care of the Ca/Mg/Fe issue a few weeks ago those spots went away. -The canopy is so damn thick defoliation doesn't allow for light penetration down to the coco. đŸ€·â€â™‚ïžđŸ»đŸ€·â€â™‚ïžđŸ» -I really shouldn't complain since these plants are definitely going to harvest big. Very excited -Building 4 separately raisable platforms so I can start growing my Fall plants. Only have 1 light, limited space for my grows but I don't want to waste a month of vegetation. If the platforms work as designed I am very confident ill be able to grow staggered harvests. The goal is to always have weed ready and cured for me to smoke. Buying from dispensaries is getting to be too expensive. -Went back and re red some online forums about growing in coco as I had no experience going in. All the forums said to essentially flood the coco on a daily basis. I have no idea how that is successful--when I tried that I almost killed my plants. Listening to the plant and reading its signals is WAY more efficient for me. The time lapse allows me to look at the plants normal day/night trends. SUCH a good idea plus it makes for a really great video at the end of the grow. 8/26 -NEw nutrient solution made. Same nutrient concentration and strength. -Cheese lowered 1.5 inches on its stilts. Its definitely stretching according to the Time Lapse -Cream Cookies smell is getting stronger and stronger every day. Cheese is the first smell to start developing. -Slight color change starting to occur on Cream Cookies. -Its beginning to become more obvious that Cream Cookies is transitioning focus from maintaining older leaves birthed in early vegetative growth and transitioning to only focusing on bud production. Lower growth is beginning to wilt out. A Natural lollipop if you will. 8/30 -Cream cookie buds are really really really starting to thicken and fill out. Looks like the final buds are going to be quite dense. The smell is really developing on cream cookies. Cant really put my finger on the exact smell but there is a definite strong cheese odor followed by a strong earthy smell. No sweet/citrus smells yet. -Cheese is flowering completely differently from cream cookies. It seems three of the main cola branches are going to yield absolutely huge buds. These main cola bud sites are stretching and small flowering nodes dominate the landscape of the branch all the way from the soil line to the canopy. It seems like the flowers are going to really fill in around the branches. -Lower branches of Cream Cookies starting to become more rigid, taking on rigid character of the main stem. Makes me think that the buds are becoming sufficiently heavy that the plant needs to reinforce some branches to avoid bending over and falling. Love to see it. -Slight signs of stress observed, going to reduce concentration of bloom nutrients to 11 mL/gal. Still should have all the nutrients the plant needs just in a less concentrated solution.

#43 clones are maturing too fast I feel. Especially that a mother is ripening normally. I would guess it’s because of poor rooting. It’s the only difference. I keep runoff at around 3 max. Around week 5 the runoff ph started to drop below 6. Even towards 5.5. Both in rockwool and coco.

Week 10 not long now these smell amazing like sweet blueberry and there's definitely something I've had before when I've bought some personal but can't quite get my head round the smell. started introducing overdrive now as they start to finish fattening and ripening up can definitely see swelling going on over the last 3 days thanks for viewing and happy

28 days huh... I don't know what to think here right now. The plant looks completely healthy, no over or underwatering symptoms, no nutrient deficiency or excess symptoms, completely healthy in my opinion. The plant is growing as seen in timelapse, would not say it is stunted. It is growing a shit ton of side nodes but nothing is stretching and I don't know why. I did see some stretching at the end of the week, either the plant will stretch drastically over the next week or I will end up with a Basketball-sized XXXL Bud. To be sure I re-calibrated all probes and they were fine before calibrating so no error on that side. Mixed a new batch of nutrient solutions and did a full swap of the reservoir. Added support bars and a net. Values are average of the day.

🌿 Schönen Sonntag & einen entspannten 1. Advent aus der richtigen Zeitzone =) đŸŒ± Wochenupdate Diese Woche wurde echt viel gefummelt 😄 Im Fokus standen Canopy-Aufbau und selektives Entlauben =) Bin da wirklich pingelig und könnte das den ganzen Tag machen
 echt schlimm 😅 Was ich jetzt schon sagen kann: Blueberry Cupcake hat mit Abstand den krassesten Stretch hingelegt. Purpz hat ihren Platz auch relativ gefĂŒllt, performt echt gut und ist fast gleichauf mit BBCC. Notorious zieht auch, soll aber wohl etwas spĂ€ter definierter drĂŒcken. Mir gefĂ€llt ihr Wachstum richtig gut. Guzzlerz macht sich auch echt gut fĂŒr ihren schlechten Start. Ihre Sides gehen mittlerweile richtig steil. Ein paar mehr Triebe wĂ€ren nice gewesen, aber da lag sicher auch einiges an mir.. :D Abseits meiner Dummheiten lief alles absolut smooth. Eine tolle Veg und richtig gute Stretch-Phase bis jetzt =DđŸ”„ 🌿 Pflanzenstatus & Training Ich halte die Canopy aktuell noch flach – fĂŒr zwei, drei Tage =) Anschließend steht das Verteilen auf die Meshes an. Danach dĂŒrfen sie endlich nach oben =D Die Richtungen sind grob gelegt, erste AnsĂ€tze sieht man auch schon =D Ich kann’s echt nicht erwarten
 Budporn ist einfach magisch đŸ˜„đŸ”„ Über die Tage sind immer wieder grĂ¶ĂŸere oder verdrehte BlĂ€tter rausgeflogen – hauptsĂ€chlich, um Luft und Licht auf möglichst viele Triebe zu bekommen 😊 Man kann wirklich ohne Bedenken ~30 % Biomasse rausnehmen, wenn die VitalitĂ€t das zulĂ€sst, ohne sichtbaren Stop im Wachstum đŸŒ± đŸŒŹïž Luft & Ventilation Hab jetzt noch zwei Clip-Ventis dazugezogen. Die Angst vor Schimmel kickt langsam wieder =D Es laufen jetzt zwei unter und zwei ĂŒber der Canopy – jeweils gegenĂŒberliegend und zirkulierend. Ich muss gestehen, dass ich den Boundary-Layer-Disruption-Effekt kenne bzw. davon weiß, und ihn durchaus stimmig finde 😊 Aber bis jetzt war die Angst vor Schimmel in irgendeiner Ecke doch grĂ¶ĂŸer 😂 Ich hab nicht den Eindruck, dass es negativ ist, zirkulierende Luft auf die Pflanzen zu richten, solange man nicht voll draufpustet 💹 ⚙ System LĂ€uft nach wie vor stabil =) Die Top-Ups halten die NĂ€hrlösung sauber auf Kurs. Gestern hat sich klar abgezeichnet, dass wir mitten im Stretch-Peak sind 😄 Sie ziehen massiv Kationen und verursachen dadurch einen deutlich messbaren pH-Drop. Das ist fĂŒr mich das Signal, das Training in den nĂ€chsten Tagen zu beenden 🌿😊 800 PPFD 1,0 kPa VPD 700–800 ppm CO₂ im Durchschnitt 💚 Special Mention Der AufwĂ€rtstrend setzt sich fort 😊 Man mag es kaum glauben, aber sie macht sich wirklich gut – sie deckt sogar etwas mehr als die HĂ€lfte ihres Quadranten ab 💚 Bin echt froh, dass sie es geschafft hat und meinen Scheiß noch mitgetragen hat 😂 Danke fĂŒrs Lesen echt verrĂŒckt, wie viele inzwischen dabei sind – freut mich wirklich mega 😊💛 Eine schöne, entspannte Adventszeit euch allen đŸŒČ😊
