Grow Report Week 15: The Calm Before the Harvest
Hello dear grow friends,
I hope you'll forgive the brevity of this update, as I am very busy this week and don't have a day off. I'm looking forward to Sunday when I will finally have more time for my ladies.
**Trolmaster Contest**
Firstly, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible support provided by TrolMaster, whose contest concludes tomorrow. Without their assistance, this endeavor could have taken a very different course. I am not only thankful but also thrilled by this amazing product, which I highly recommend to all of you.
There’s no need to worry about high temperatures anymore, and the ability to check your values on the go is truly invaluable. The Tent X Controller may come at a price, but it is an investment you will never regret. It offers the possibility of endless expansion with additional sensors.
A heartfelt thank you once again to the support team and the representatives on Instagram. With love ❤️
**Development and Harvest Time**
Everything is going according to plan, and the ladies are developing well. I estimate that they will have a harvest time of about **3-4 weeks**. Overall, I am satisfied with the progress.
**Time-Lapse and Conclusion**
The next few weeks will probably show hardly any noticeable changes, so the time-lapse will be finished next week. It was a great grow with many ups and downs.
**Looking Forward to the Harvest**
I'm looking forward to testing the ladies soon and am excited about the results. I will, of course, keep you updated.
See you soon and thank you for sharing this journey with me!
Your budz_bunny

Another solid week! I decided not to do a "hard" LST with these two.... I'll do some to open them up a bit but I'm going to let another grow go more naturally!
They both grew a lot this week.... Chloe is 10 inches tall and Sofie is 8 inches tall... I watered them twice this week with 1.5 cups of water each time...
I'll be moving them into the 4X4 flowering tent during this next week... I'm about to sow 2 Fast Buds Bruce Banner seeds... This will be the third and last grow in the start of my perpetual garden... State law dictates only 6 plants at a time...
Anyways, on to another great week... cheers!!

After so much tender loving care, I came home today to find how two puppies kept themselves busy while I was attending my daughter's graduation!! Evidently, Thelma and Louise had a blast digging a hole and uprooting my baby Strawberry Banana plant. But do not fret, for Susquihanna doesn't like to lose. So I put my Strawberry Banana back in place, filled in the hole and put another row of fencing up to protect my Strawberry Banana Plant.
I am a Newbie, but from what I understand, Sometimes growers/contests are interested in seeing the good, the bad and the ugly. So, today is an ugly day with no new growth or excitement to report. I am hoping next week I will have a plant to report on. For now, enjoy my videos of Thelma and Louise playing; the double fencing that I put up; and pray for my dear little Strawberry Banana Plant--that she may come back from her listless life and THRIVE. Until next week.....

We’re back! 💨 Finally was able to get some picks and do an update on these girls. Pushed them 11 weeks into flowering and we cut them down. Took 4 days for me to trim it all! She’s drying in my rack now so I will update the harvest info shortly. I pulled 1 of these already about a month ago that I was growing alongside my peyote cookies and it was some decent buds, not spectacular at first but after a few weeks cutting its coming along better. Ended up with about 11 oz off that one girl and we cut her at the 9 week flowering mark and she had about 2 weeks less veg time as well. So we pushed these 2 girls to the extreme the other way(partially because I just didn’t have the time to cut them…lol) and hopefully we will get some more intense highs from it. I kinda just let these girls do their own thing and really only bent them down over my screen once and tucked a little to fill the screen but other then that she was just blowing up all over and I had a hard time actually containing these 2 girls
In my 4’x8’ tent. We also got a good heat wave again that pushed my temps way up in the 10th week of flowering and these girls grew closer to my light then I wanted or could keep from happening. Lol so we got some major foxtails in the center of my tent but we still ended up with some huge buds. Cheers 💨

The Blackberry Moon Rocks are looking promising. One of them is growing into this beautiful little bush, and I think it's almost ready to harvest. The other plant is stacking up buds, but I'm thinking it's still a couple of weeks away.
The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Ok so getting a bit concerned.
I'm trying to keep nutrients low, but am noticing spotting on some other leaves and some of the white pistils lower down are growing in brown instead of white.
Spotting on at least one of the plants has gotten to the degree I've trimmed it a bit and the lower leaves look fine.
Please let me know if you see an issue with any of the above pictures / advice.

Update:
Ok looks like I have a bit of light burn and possibly some nutrient issues as well.
Have been adding more cal mag.
Trying to water a bit less than was as may not have been letting the coco dry out enough.
And I have moved my LED lights as far up as is possible currently to try and see how it goes, not sure If I've mucked this up or will still get a decent harvest.
Any thoughts and suggestions are welcome.
Edited: 28/09/18
Got a nice mini led microscope to check out my affected leaves.

Glad to report that I have not seen a single mite on any of my checks between 60 to 120 magnification.
Even split open a stem where I had to remove a leaf earlier and had a look inside just to be sure.
There are lots of little circle type globs on the leaves, but I take it this is trichomes and not eggs.

week 9 - 1/25-2/1
Was going to harvest but its just absolutely not even close to ready... Going to try to make this work with limited space as every great grower would try.... I put it in 48 hours of darkness thinking iw as going to chop it but when i pciked it up i just couldnt have the heart to move forward and decided to turn the lights off... (i also fed right before 48 hours of dark because i was planning on keeping growing then decided fuck it lets chop b/c of a major setback while i was on vacation but now its experiment time!!!) ... lets see what happens!
ASLO recipe called for NO CAL MAG but im adding 3 ML to the mix b/c i think itll help since im in coco... elts see

Eine kurze Wochenbeschreibung findest du unter den Fotos.
Was denkst du, wann gehen die beiden in die Blüte?
Sollte ich doch noch etwas gegen die Minierer unternehmen? Bislang habe ich keinen Brennnessel-Kaltauszug gespritzt.
Freue mich über Kommentare und Tips. Es sind meine ersten Photoperiodischen.

Still vegging. Looks like she may just be starting to switch, but we'll see at the end of the week.
Yeah, she's switching over, day 53.
I really like the look of this one so far :)

viel hat sich nicht mehr getan seit dem letzten eintrag. so richtig bernsteinig wollten die trichome nicht werden obwohl ich den pflanzen zwei wochen mehr zeit als geplant eingeräumt habe.
zum trocknen hab ich die nur grob getrimmt. die feinarbeit kommt nach dem trocknen.
da im zelt noch die white truffle stehen hängen die freaks erstmal im schrank.
die bedingungen zum trocknen sind wetterbedingt gerade sehr schlecht. bei 70% raumluftfeuchtigkeit wird so schnell nix trocknen.
vielleicht wird es ja doch noch sommer in den nächsten tagen.

Had 1mm of rain in the last month, responding well to very little water, drip irrigated a few hours once a week. I spent so much time hauling water jugs for feeding last year, this is a treat..

In the end, I harvested 310g of dry plants, discarding all the popcorn. Not a bad result, even if I didn't reach my goal of 450g. I decided to leave a few leaves and let it re-vegetate. It's growing very quickly, and I'll soon send it back to flowering. Thank you all for following the diary and leaving likes and comments. Happy growing to all my friends.🌽🌽🌽

In the last two weeks I had some problems taking care of her, I was out most of the time and it kept raining. She's really doing her best and the flowers, even though they're small, are nearly ready. Still having a lot of troubles with mites, I hope I'm not gonna end up smoking them🤢🤣 Also, I have to keep using neem oil and I know it's going to effect the taste, but I really can't do anything else
