sonymatrix First fertilization with a cheap NPK fertilizer. Manufacturer's recommendation is 5ml per liter. Used 4ml per liter.

sonymatrix I flushed once with distilled water, pH was 7.5. The pot was just too big. Watered without drainage. After that, everything was fine again; I suspect salt buildup in the lower soil area.

sonymatrix The smell got extreme. Finally installed the new exhaust system with activated carbon filter. Also added a fan. The climate is perfect now, constant temperature and humidity.

sonymatrix So now the first stipules and stigmas are forming. Off to the flowering phase.

sonymatrix So switched the lighting to flowering.

sonymatrix Now it's time for the flowering.

sonymatrix Now the flowers are looking really nice. The plant looks very healthy. Only the one from the gifted seed has made a stunt of 70 percent.

sonymatrix Unfortunately, I have Corona and should have watered two days ago. But I couldn't move. Today I pulled myself together and watered, but unfortunately the back plant has drooping yellow leaves today. I haven't had any problems in all these weeks. Well, I hope it recovers well.

sonymatrix Final stretch. Maybe just 3 more weeks. Hopefully, the lower buds will also turn out nicely. One must not forget, this is my very first grow. Cheers.

sonymatrix Everything still looks good. Trichomes are still clear. A few are brown, but very few.

sonymatrix I think the lady will be ripe soon. Trichomes are still 95% clear. About 5% of the trichomes are brown. However, the stigmas are about 70% brown. The plant is still drinking the same amount of nutrient solution. I think I won't add any nutrients when I water next. Just watering with distilled water from now on. I hope so. I've always written down all the data every day. I'll do it like that again, I can immediately spot mistakes and changes in the plant. You can see the light yield wasn't optimal; the lower buds are very small. I'm building a new cabinet. Bigger and taller. Black/white film has been purchased. I think I'll start the second grow in January. I've recorded all the data every day. The pH value of the substrate is between 6.9 - 7.0. My tap water has a pH value of 7.5. Very hard water. That's why when the pH value of the substrate was at 7.0, I knew I had to water. That helped me a lot. I was sick once with a fever. I watered the Critical 2 days too late. Immediately the lower leaves turned yellow and droopy. The next grow will surprise you. Best, sonymatrix

sonymatrix The first trichomes are turning brown. About 5-10 percent. The first trichomes are becoming milky. Harvest is coming soon. The Critical is getting yellow leaves. Last used fertilizer 7 days ago.

sonymatrix This week has only 5 days. Today no more light was given. Tomorrow is harvest time. Tomorrow will be 36 hours without light. Last watering was 5 days ago. For the past 12 days, only water. They hardly drink anymore. I'm looking forward to the harvest. 👍 I'm curious what the scale will say. It won't be a record, but it looks good. For your information, new seedlings will be moistened today. I'm currently building a new grow box. 👍

sonymatrix Will be weighed as soon as it is dried.

sonymatrix As soon as everything is dried, it will be weighed.
