Substrate amendments & quantity per bag 22L
1. 15L Coco Substrate (CalMag Buffered)
2. Red Earth Wiggler - Wormcastings
65g
3. Lujae Dolomite Lime
15g
4. Cultera - Vermiculite
25g
After removing the 10L bag, I use my spray bottle to moisten the sides of the coir slightly. I then sprinkle Mycorrhiza to assist in a speedily transplant recovery.
I also sprinkled some at the bottom of the 22L bag as well
Transplanting Done! 🤙t2:
Note: The same method, amendments, quantity used to transplant (Jet Fuel) too. About 2 weeks after this one.
Flipped May 2nd
*Selective defoliation (Open lower bud sites)
*PH 5.5 😶
*Hydrogen Peroxide Foliar Spray
*All set for now, hope all goes well from here!! Peace!🙌
Hey Guys, so I have ran into some difficulties regarding our power supplier. Due to the current situation we are facing in South Africa the power company "Eskom" does not have ample supply to provide constant electricity to our country anymore. This is very sad. So they implement a system called "loadshedding" where the cut off power supply in certain suburbs at certain times. This has got me in a complete and utter flat spin as I'm not always at home when this happens. The past 2 weeks have been immensely rough as we we're scheduled for outages 3 times a day for 2,5 hour intervals. Between 02:00AM - 06:30 my tent's power went off (depending on scheduled time). This has in fact caused some VPD problems ( I tried getting up every night, but I still have to get enough sleep for work ). As you can imagine, it sucks BIG TIME. I've done my best to keep at par & doctored where I could.
*Decreased Light Intensity (600W)
*Decreased Wind Velocity on canopy
Almost approaching the start of week 3.
Feeding schedule from 3 day interval - 2 day interval ( 2L per feed )
Selective defoliation to get light on lower tops.
Used some garden wire to support 2 main colas which we're too high.
Note: Pest/Mould check done. Foliar sprayed with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) @ coolest part of day
- Next day applied high alkalinity ph'd water to kill mildew spores
- Fan heater running from 03:30AM - 06:00AM, pulsing/regulating temp at 19-21°C [ until light comes on ]
Grow Logging
Light Distance From Canopy = 65cm

All went steady!
Re-Adjusted my Fan positions & velocity!
Full 900W running again - Lights were moved further from canopy to decrease leaf temperature.
I pruned some affected leaf tips/fingers
Pest & Mould prevention H2o2
Lets hope for the best
They're improving substantially.
Minor Tent & Equipment Sterilizing
All 900W running for late Flower
Adjusted the Fan positions & speeds
Raised the humidifier closer to canopy
Average VPD = 1.5kPa @ 19C
Outside Temps are plummeting - Entering Winter
Running Fan Heater at night.
First Dew Frost on the 1st of June
Added min-max hygrometer
There's still damages, pruned affected leaves
New growth looking normalised.
Budding is slow

They’re starting to fatten up. Still plenty white hair pistols on lower bud sites. My guess would be 10-12 weeks needed for budding. Trichomes = 80% clear still.
New feeding schedule from tomorrow Tomorrow 06:00
2.5 L/Plant - Every 2 days
3g Calcium Nitrate
0,5ml Bio-Grow
0,5ml Fish-Mix
10ml Bio-Bloom

Temp to be adjusted -2℃ in relation to environment temp.
Until the next 1, PEACE ✌️t2:
Hello guys…
Tomorrow will be 2 months of flowering.
Starting with flush on Saturday → 16 July 2022
Trichomes = 40% clear / 60% Amber
Light intensity increased - lowered all 3 light fixtures
Light Period shortened - 10 Hours on / 14 Hours off
Wind velocity increased through canopy
Hey Guys!
The last 2-3 weeks have been somewhat difficult. The “Load shedding” cut-offs has increased to stage +5 level which means 5 hours without electricity each day! 😒 🤢 Suck’s right? Well, that ain’t where my headache ends. To make matters even worse, due to all the on/off intervals our suburbs Sub-Station Transformer blew out - causing an overload & tripping the emergency leakage right after it gets switched back on. Then it’s a waiting game as City Officials needs to manually override the system, sometimes waiting up to 6 hours for them to respond to the call-out.
Trying to keep things in check as best I can has taken its toll. Thus I’ve made the decision to harvest a little earlier than planned. I’ve noticed the flush taking affect underneath the leaves which is good enough for me at this point! (Besides, my smoke jar has been empty for almost 2 weeks now) - Thus why I’ve decided to harvest a little early than normal.
I had started with the flush on 2 July after 8,5 weeks into reproductive stage. Initially planned to flush them down for 2-3 weeks until the flower period had reached 12-13th weeks total. ∴ 10 day flush done!
Flush Period → 2 July 2022 → Yesterday 06:00
Dark Period → Yesterday 14:00 → Tomorrow 06:00
Harvesting Day → Tomorrow 08:00
