I have a few strains in my tent at the moment but as it's my first diary I will be sticking with the one strain which is sweet deep grapefruit by dinafem seeds. Into week 8 we go, last week before flipping to 12/12, plant looks healthy and seems to be thriving using remo nutrients at the exact dosage recommended, only issue is new growth seems to be a little skinny an twisted at first but then sorts itself out any ideas why this could be? Humidity has been a little low past week but as I'm flipping soon I'm not to bothered by that. Give plant a little defoliation last week doesn't look like I touched her thhe way she bounced back lol. So far so good happy with the progress she's making :)

So this week after I gave it under nutrients I apparently gave it too much nitrogen while having a potassium deficiency. Shiney dark leaves, So i fixed that, but some didn't bounce back, and I tried nitrogen. I think they are doing pretty good considering everything I've put them through SO FAR. lol. Nutrients are NPK Raw's total lineup, follow their instructions at first, Fastbuds adjustments as of this week.

Weirdly enough her side branches have the fullest buds and most white pistils (gonna post better pictures soon)

Fade has fully set in now, just keeping an eye on the trichromes for harvest time. Plants are nice and frosty and smells very sweet. Was getting worried about harvest time and drying / curing as I go away for 2 weeks November 6th. Invested in some Grove bags for the cure so this has reduced my anxiety about leaving my harvest for so long during the beginning of cure. Heard good things about them, interested in your opinion drop a comment.

Notes for flower week 8 Watering Days. All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio, or combination, of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates. These are/will be DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add-in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids) TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added-in larger, then smaller, ratios while the "Bloom Mix" concentrate will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely. The ppm and ratios will be listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 120/50 (last feed was day 117/47) Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. Fed 3 gallons of purified water (starting with 17ppm) mixed with 699ppm of 100% Bloom Mix Concentrate. Due to this soil showing a possible calcium deficit, I am still using 1ml per gallon add-in to test on all plants using this soil, so I added 3.0ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) to the feed then I ph balanced before feeding. The ph on this feed was balanced to 7.35 (7.4 last feed). I used knitting needles to help both aerate the soil and create new water pathways for the roots. (a practice I am making a new feeding standard for all my plants) I got ~15 cups of runoff (~20 cups last feed). Higher runoff volume was expected with the feed volume increase, might let her go to 4 days and 2.5 next feed. It could be a result of the knitting needle treatment when feeding. Runoff was tested at 6.15ph and 2010ppm (6.10ph and 2070ppm last feed) - again thinking it could be a result of the knitting needles. Top soil tested at 6.65,6.48,6.6,6.81 for an avg of 6.635 (6.372 avg after last feed)- next feed will be 7.0ph again as I'm still liking where the ph is finally going, but rather see it closer to 6.3 or 6.4 top and bottom. I dont see any issues with the feed's data other than the possible calcium deficit and I will continue to monitor runoff ppms as I expected this to be lower with less runoff but have to consider they maybe washing out salt with the knitting needles. Next Feed should be 2.5 gallons of de-chlorinated tap water ph balanced to 7.1 in +4 days (124/54). I expect I will run 700ppm and 2.5ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) again, but expect that to be my last large feed before harvest around Christmas. Day 124/54 (last feed was day 120/50) Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. Fed 3 gallons of de-chlorinated tap (starting with 251ppm) mixed with 709ppm of 100% Bloom Mix Concentrate. Due to this soil showing a possible calcium deficit, I am still using 1ml per gallon add-in to test on all plants using this soil, so I added 3.0ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and 45ml of Roots Organics HP2 (0-4-0) to the feed, then I ph balanced before feeding. The ph on this feed was balanced to 7.13 (7.35 last feed). I used knitting needles to help both aerate the soil and create new water pathways for the roots. (a practice I am making a new feeding standard for all my plants) I got ~27 cups of runoff (~15 cups last feed). Higher runoff volume was expected with the feed volume increase as well as previous knitting needle aeration. Runoff was tested at 6.21ph and 2100ppm (6.15ph and 2010ppm last feed). Top soil tested at 6.57,6.41,6.3,6.39 for an avg of 6.42 (6.635 avg after last feed)- next feed will be 6.8ph as I'm still liking where the ph is finally going. I dont see any issues with the feed's data other than the possible calcium deficit Next Feed should be 2.5 gallons of de-chlorinated tap water ph balanced to 6.8 in +4 days (128/58). I expect I will run 400ppm and 2.5ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) again, but no more HP2. I expect to start flushing her out with lower nute levels from that next feed point.

The little ones are developing well, unfortunately there are a few minor nutrient problems in the direction of Calmag with the Morello Cherries and also slight signs of this with the TerpyZ Punch. I counteracted this with a foliar spray. The pH value of the hydrosystem has unfortunately dropped a little to 5.5, which I have equalised with ph up from Plagron. The plants are currently getting light between 800-900 ppfd and as soon as the stretch starts, l'll increase this to 1000 ppfd. Both ladies are slowly starting to smell.

settimana soddisfacente ad inizio settimana ho travasato la pianta,nel travaso ho trovato una parte delle radici un po' piu scura del normale,come avevo scritto ho usato del coco vecchio e in quella parte rimaneva piu umido e compatto..naturlmente ho aggiunto coco nuovo quindi ho aggiuto micorizze sulle radici prima di reinvasare ho aspettato un giorno che il cocco si asciugasse un po' di piu e h bagnato con il doppio dell'acido umico che metto normalmente LST continua con piccoli aggiustamenti e una defogliazione limitata a qualche foglia ,al buio,ogni tanto le dimensioni iniziano ad aumentare

Really nonflexibal cells - breaks very easylie when low stress trained with Bud Clips But she recovered every stem break and growing healthy and vigorously

Day 48 flowering: removed small leaves and mini-buds from the bottom to the middle of the trunk. Watering volume week 12: day 43- 49 - 500 ml

Well, the outrageous stretch continues. At this point I'm not even sure I'll give this strain another shot. I *really* dislike the scraggly tall plants like this. Maybe for outdoors someone might take a shot on them. The plant on the right is still racing skywards and isn't showing me that is is slowing down. I'm going to have to start bending here. grrrrrrr. Oh well, I've given the clones I took early on to a buddy for his outdoor grow. Moving forward I have to really start thinking about more support up top. Thinking of nabbing a second net. I've got a few seeds of this strain left and I'm wondering if I should bother to hope for a different pheno or just move on to another strain.

acho que ainda consegui produzir uns tricomas com as correções da água, mas como o estágio da floração já estava bem avançado, as folhas começaram a descolorir muito cedo, tive que colher 3 plantas precocemente, as outras 3 menos vou tentar seguir mais 2 semanas, não estão mostrando tricomas Ambar ainda!

02/01/18 - Week 7 / Day 38 Added PK 13/14 last week as per the CANNA COCO schedule I've been following for this grow - the buds look a little more plump and I cant wait to see what the next few weeks have in store. The smell is amazing - sweet and citrusy, with a candy aroma. There is great variation in the smell of the resins from the 4 GZ plants - one of them smells like a sweet tangerine while others smell less citrusy and more sharp/pine smelling. There doesn't seem to be much of a variation in phenotype, one has a great inter-nodal distance and the other three look about the same in terms of stature. Two look identical in the shapes of their bud, one has very GG4 looking buds and the last one has the least developed buds. I think this is because it has the most lateral growth and multiple bud sites which cant get the light from the canopy - I got a little greedy and didn't want to trim these away when defoliating early flower but I looking back I regret not doing that as the other three (which didn't have nearly as many smaller side branches) are doing excellently. Alternatively, this plant could just be a couple days behind lol. More updates on 8th. Happy New Year!

The buds are freaking long and the main is huge allready. I lowered my nutrients this week, by stopping with the PK boost for now. She stopped streching and start fattening up.

Next week will flush plants with flavored extract and unsulfured Molasses. All is great!

Comeing along. Not shown any signs of over or under fed they have handled the heat not too bad been up to 30c although not for long. Starting to fatten up now also. Smells so nice

📆 Semana 7 La Lemon Cherry Runtz sigue su avance imparable en floración. Los cogollos se vuelven más densos y pesados, cubiertos de una capa de resina cada vez más brillante, que refleja la luz como un pequeño tesoro. Los pistilos comienzan a oscurecerse, anunciando la llegada de la madurez final, mientras el aroma dulce y afrutado se intensifica, envolviendo el espacio con notas golosas y envolventes. Las ramas laterales mantienen su fuerza, soportando sin problema el creciente peso de los cogollos, y la estructura general sigue equilibrada y aireada, perfecta para un desarrollo óptimo. Las hojas grandes ceden aún más espacio, dejando que la floración ocupe todo el protagonismo. 🌸 El espectáculo visual y aromático sigue en pleno apogeo, y lo mejor aún está por venir. Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Auto Northern Dragon Fuel is growing good. She is starting to go into a bulking phase. I defoliated her today to thin her out some more. I have been a little heavy on nitrogen in my feed. I am gonna cut back on it greatly as she bulks. Too much causes cola development issues. Beside that everything has been going well.

Ze heeft het naar haar zin en wordt steeds dikker. Heb wat spintmijt gezien, maar was er op tijd bij en heb haar een knoflookwater behandeling gegeven. Er zijn geen beestjes meer te bekennen. Bladeren die al wat aangetast waren en de grote bladeren die veel licht blokkeerden heb ik weggeknipt. Verder doet ze het zeer goed. Dag 60: Het lijkt er op dat ze de honing die is meegegeven met haar voeding erg lekker vindt. De toppen zijn in massa toegenomen de laatste paar dagen. Dag 62: Vanaf morgen ga ik haar alleen nog water (Spa Reine) geven dus flushen. De voeding van Plagron heeft haar laten smullen.🌳 Zeer tevreden. Wordt vervolgd...

well i never thought this plant would take so long to mature but here it is, finally at a spot that I can flip it into flower. next need to clean her all up.
