4/9/24 attempting to pop Challah Bread from DNA Genetics. "Upgraded" to the Evo 4 from s33 board from ac Infinity for this grow. Moved surge outlets to outside of tent, cleaned up wiring a bit, and still debating where to put the driver. Moving from two aqua culture units to one active aqua 15. Put bigger bubble stones in and replaced all tubing. Decided that the active aqua 15 was too loud/ motor seemed to be struggling. Ordered a hitop 10 watt unit. Can't speak to durability, but really glad I bought it. It's a bit more powerful, super quiet, and less expensive.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 07/12/2019 - Fed her 2l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each Grow, Bloom, Max and Alga-mic, and 1ml of each Heaven and Vera,noticed about 10% run off, also added a green filter to the camera lens. Adjusted the light distance to 55cm again it was toooo close about 32cm. 10/12/2019 - Decided to go back and check the basics, removed led strip to give a proper 'night' time, changing light cycle to 20/4h no more 'exotic' 22/2h, re-checked the light distance every 2 to 3 days to ensure 60-45cm and I can tell all ready she is loving it. Also added home made Co2 made with 1 tsp of yeast, 3/4 tsp of sugar 700ml of warm water in a 1l bottle with a tiny pin hole on the cap. 11/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each Grow, Bloom, Max and Alga-mic, and 1ml of each Heaven and Vera,noticed about 10% run off. 12/12/2019 - 8 weeks have passed and no flowers I guess I'm flipping to 1212h to see if she reacts.

The terpenes attack are intense, super strong citrus pungent at this stage which indicates plant is ripening its trichs. My watering is twice a week with 500ml compost tea and 1.5L water only. The frost and smell is amazing. As for the burnt off leaves, i did defo but i was lazy to trim more of the burnt leaves. So i am going to leave them there because they drop off easily and is not inside the buds

All new in this 4th week ! Thx to my friend @YYCannabis I completly changed the way to grow. 1) new pot with a new water level (10 liters just below the basket) 2) only few nutrients for now: micro, grow and calmag 3) a low EC (for now is 1 but Im ready to raise it if needed) 4) new policy about grow management based on the changes of water, EC and PH following a chart for corrective actions 5) more control on Temp and Humidity 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Lesson Learned: WATER JUST UNDER THE BASKET FOLLOW THE PLANT NEEDS. IF SHE ASKS FOOD THEN GIVE HER FOOD, BUT IF SHE DOESN'T THEN DO NOT. PAY ATTENTION TO PH, TEMP, HUMIDITY START WITH A LOW EC AND ADD NUTS ONLY IF NEEDED GET A ROOT PROTECTOR AS HYDROGUARD 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 I will see how she will react to this new method and I will make correction if needed 20/04 - Added fertilizers, raised EC, lowed PH. 21/04 - Added fertilizers, raised EC, lowed PH. 22/04 - Made Defoliation and LST 23/04 - Made Defoliation and LST

Esta es la última semana de crecimiento que le doy a las pequeñas, el último día antes de hacer el cambio de horas de luz le hago una pequeña poda de bajos ya que eso le dará más aire a la zona baja y más fuerza a la parte superior de nuestras plantas. En esta semana terminamos con una Ec de 1.6 y un ph de 5.8. Están creciendo muy rápido y con fuerza en los tallos. Los tamaños de las pequeñas son: las red hot cookies 24 y 34 cm, las tropicanas 27 y 37 cm y la purple puch og 24 cm.

Day 61 - April 11, 2021 Today was full of headaches lol. Checked the PH of the reservoir this evening and it had dropped to 4.6. Algae exploded in the past day. Removed reservoir and pumps and cleaned thoroughly. Thankfully just prepped a new batch of nutrient solution. Humidifier hasn't had to run all week. Will be switching to dehumidifier soon.

It's randomly reset 2x over the last couple days. At first thought it was a fluke and maybe bump the reset button somehow. Seems unlikely, it randomly resets clock to 12am and erases the programmed times. Think I'm going to give a smart plug a shot instead (at least I can see notifications if scheduler fails) So far seeing pistols on all ladies. No nannards so far. Will be working on canopy this weeking and will take close look at each.

Waiting for Anden dehu to arrive. Also replaced the Titan Apollo 9 controller for water pumps as it keeps randomly resetting and has proved unreliable. Testing a smart plug and will create some conditions with IFTTT to send notifications to ensure pumps don't miss schedules, shut off correctly, etc. Plants are doing well. Pistols are popping out faster and faster. Planning to do some canopy management this weekend and will be inspecting to make sure there aren't any pollen sacs forming.

She's surprisingly short compared to Selena (Super Auto Lemon Haze) but her buds are turning out to be nice, purple, and covered in trichomes so far. Had to cut down the lights to 12-12 cause one of the other plants turned out to be a photoperiod. Sucks but it definitely saves me the electricity bill. As usual, looking forward to next week!

Week started off well. Day 50 and no major hiccups. Lets get to that finish line soon! Day 51 - Everyone is healthy and great. CDLC is really putting on the weight now. All five of them are stellar. MB #1 stopped stretching and her nugs are starting to swell. She is one fast lady. The other Miracle Berry Remix looks like it will stretch some more and so does the Mango Smile. Strawberry and CDLC have a ways to go but they are blowing up. I am feeding everyone every day at least 2 liters of the above mixture. Depending on coloration (light green to dark green) I will change the nitrogen content. These things are eating phosphorous up like candy. I have experienced NO nutrition burn. All of my issues thus far have been underfeeding due to PH issues. I have a theory that I want to feed them as much as possible regardless of feed schedule and fear of nutrition burn. Ensuring a healthy root system with proper PH and monitoring Potassium in your watering should give the best results. I am finding that the only nutrient that cause the physical representation of nutrition burn (burned tips) is too much Potassium. I think I stated it before but Nitrogen toxicity doesn't burn tips and Phosphorous is really difficult to overdose your plant with. Pinpointing this is extremely important I feel. Are there any other growers who find this to be true? Day 53 - Everyone is great. Notable things from today...Mango Smile is sad cuz I gave her a hair cut and Strawberry Nuggets revealed a massive nitrogen deficiency after I gave her a hair cut. I switched to bloom nutrients too early on her. Upped her nitrogen PPM for today's feeding and hoping I didn't stunt her too badly. Lot's of node sites though. Day 54 - Mango Smile was just being a diva. Today her entire canopy was an inch higher...and she shows no signs of swelling yet. She's gonna end up going over 90 days for sure. My Maxigrow got moisture in it...so it went bad. I went out and bought some NPK Raw Grow for my Strawberry Nuggets. She is so hungry I feel bad. She is the only one I fed today. Everyone else was fine. Pistils on MB#1 are turning orange/brown. She might be ready at day 70. MB#2 will be right behind her. They are quite fast for being so big. CDLC is looking great. Didn't take a photo today but she is getting frosty and her flower stretch is on. Humidity is a little high in tent since I added additional pots with soil in them. I turned up my light to around 80% and the humidity tanked. Temperature went up to about 81F. I think we can manage that. I'm not seeing any signs of heat stress or fox tailing. My lights are powered by two HLG-600H drivers. Theoretically, I have 1200 Watts in the tent. Just to clarify since the journal won't let me specify my wattage for the QB96s. They can go up to 250 Watts each with active cooling. Day 55 - Moved everyone in the tent around to increase airflow. Trying to keep everyone off the walls but Miracle Berry Remix 1 is taking over the tent. Probably going to have to supercrop soon. Miracle Berry 1 smells deeply of berries. No gas or funk smell. Smells like a blue raspberry slurpee.

Week 10. Not much to say again. She grows more. Training is getting harder for me as branches are more mature and harder to bend without feeling like they may snap. I've come too far to risk breaking her now. I will do slight adjustments each day over the week to get the shape I want and fingers crossed she will take it. Feeding is still just some N and once a week some P and K along with her soil improvers. I've managed to do all my autos with out the need for Cal mag but this lady is asking for some. So will introduce some Cal mag this week. The 4 tops I took off her previous topping are all rooted and potted. So I have 4 clones of triple cheese to try and schedule into what is already an over crowded space.. ah well. Fun fun fun. Day 66 After she had her tops taken I thought she would need to rest but she pushed another 4cm of growth on about 5 of the 16 colas. The canopy height difference between highest and lowest cola was around 15 cm. I decided to put her through some more torture and now the canopy is flat(er) around 5cm difference now which I can live with as I feel I can level bits out as new growth pushes. I will try and take her shape out wider rather then higher for now but again I will see want she wants to do and hopefully we can come to an agreement 😊. She will spend the next 5 days to herself eating drinking and living the good life. Thanks for looking. Stay safe.😷 Happy grows to all👍🌱🌿🌱

26.09.21. У Халка очередная неделя прошла отлично, начал растягивать боковые ветви, в дальнейшем будет Top макцшки или Fim подрезка, не решил. На выходе показывает небольшое завышение ppm и снижение ph, что говорит о том, что девчонка перевела и надо бы полить водичкой с минимальным количеством удобрения. Всем удачи, жду в гости, пишите комментарии друзья, лайк это здорово, но мнение человека неоценимо👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🌱 28.09.21 немного потренировал Халкушу, главный стебель как из железа, толстый и не тянется, через пару дней топну макушку. 30.09.21 мне очень нравится развитие Халка, потенциал у растения очень серьёзный, о чем говорит размеры листьев и толщина ствола.
