Plants are doing well this far.
I just gave them there first feeding on Day 14. Usually I will wait to feed on Day 30 but I re-used the soil from my previous grow.
Day 18 - RO Water with 5ml Calmag.
Day 20 - LST
Day 22 - Feeding. Light LST and light defoliation.
Plants are doing well so far. I've been giving them 1/2 gallon each feeding/watering. Next feeding/watering they will move up to 1 gallon. They are definitely getting stinky. 😁
Normal week. These girls are doing there thing.
Watering on Day 25
Feeding on Day 29
They have started flowering.
Did a lil LST and light defoliation on all four.
Now comes the fun part of the grow. Flower.
Light defoliation and LST again this week.
Day 29 Feeding
Day 33 Watering.
Not much to report. Girls are still doing there thing. They are definitely stretching right now.
Girls responded well to the heavy defoliation. They didn't skip a beat.
They are still stretching.
They got a watering on Day 39 with a tbsp of molasses.
They got a feeding on Day 43. I upped the Bloom nutrient.
All is going well so far. 😁
Not much to report this week. These girls are just doing there thing.
Feeding on Day 43
Watering on Day 48 with 5ml Calmag and 1tbs of molasses.
Pretty sure they are done stretching. Hopefully the buds start fattening up a lot.
My last grow the Pineapple Express and Green Crack buds were less than desirable. Gorilla Glue and Purple Kush did amazing. I tried doing PK again but the seeds never took off. Hopefully next grow. Everyone really enjoys smoking PK and GG. 😙💨
The leaves are changing colors outside as well as inside my tent. 😁
What a difference one week makes. They are looking, smelling and doing amazing. They are getting frosty.
Feeding on Day 52
Watering with 5 ml Calmag and 1 tbsp of molasses on Day 56.
I believe this will be there last feeding. With only two weeks left until harvest, I want to thoroughly flush the soil.
I had some comments on my last grow about not doing a good flush.
It's all about learning.
Until next week. ✌️🏼
Watering on Day 60 with 1 tbsp of molasses.
Flush on Day 64 with 6 gallons of water per plant. Water going in has a 368 ppm and final run off of 513 ppm.
150 ppm average is pretty good.
I'm guessing harvest will be in a week. Trichomes are almost all cloudy. I'm going to hold off until I see some amber.
I might have two plants that need an additional week before harvest. They still have white pistols.
All and all I'm very happy with the grow so far. It has been very easy. Feed and water and let them do there thing.
Definitely going to do a Purple Kush grow next.
Until next week. ✌️🏼
This was the final week for these girls. What an easy grow this was.
11/18 Day 68 I put them in 48 hours of darkness.
11/20 Day 70 I harvested them.
I will do a final harvest log when they are completely done and in cure. Probably the following week.
Hanging weights after harvest are as follows.
Zkittles 14.3 ounces
Gorilla Glue 14.3 ounces
Green Crack 15.6 ounces
Pineapple Express 15.5 ounces
I'm expecting to end up with 2 ounces per plant. Anything more than that is a bonus.
This was a great grow and I'm starting my new grow right away. Purple Kush and Train Wreck.
Until next week. ✌️🏼
Flushing is very important, took awhile for myself to figure it out.
Thought just watering for the last few weeks was good enough,
now I pour the water through the soil, 6-8L at a time,suck up the
water with the shop-vac, let dry, repeat at least two or three times
or more if you can. Now I'm getting some flavourful and smelly buds and
the herb burns alot cleaner👌.. Plants look almost ready👍, Happy trimming!!!!😎
@MooSnuckle69,👊👊.
Still snowing😵, well over a foot of wet heavy snow, YUCK!!!
The trans Canada highway was closed yesterday from the Manitoba
border all the way to Thunder Bay just about, accidents and trucks in the ditch everywhere, CRAZY!!!
Have a great day and stay safe!!
@northernMike,
Sounds like you skipped Fall and went right into winter.😂
We have a couple days where it is close to 70 degrees and the next few days a high of 40 degrees. Hard to get used to the change in temps.
I appreciate your response. I think I will stick with the proper flush and get the ppm's as low as possible. All my plants are completely yellow leaves at this point. Buds are looking good and trichomes are getting cloudy. I'm going to wait for some amber and then it's chop time. I just want this crop to be free of chemicals and burn well. Every harvest thus far some people have complained of harshness.
Thanks again and be well. ✌️🏼
@MooSnuckle69,We just got dumped on😵, woke up this morning to
about 4-5 cm of heavey wet snow, supposed tho get another 20-30cm today
and another 10-12cm overnight and tomorrow😲😲. I don't think it's going
to stick around as temps are just above zero in the daytime for the next few days👍..
As far as molasses goes , I think it makes the plants more resinous for sure, just like
any simple sugar would, plus it has a bit of calcium and other micro nutrients.
I use molasses mostly to feed the soil and the microbes in the soil which produce
sugars and carbs that the plant can uptake easily, I think if you use molasses right up until
the end you cannot get a proper flush because the microbes are still feeding and producing
sugars and the plant is still feeding from the soil.( my opinion)
The idea of the flush is remove all nutrients from the soil so the plant will start to feed on the
sugars and micro nutrients that are stored in the leaves, this causes the leaves to fade
and change colour. I hope this helps👊👊
I have the same light as the one you are using in this diary page. I'm curious to see how are you using the light as far as %. Is it100% all the time or do you start at a lower %? If so, what do you start at and when do you move up the %?
Thanks!
