White Widow Auto RQS

30.11.22/D1 - Started to flush the plagron lightmix soil i use, as it has to much fertz in it. Gave me problems last 2 runs so will preventiv this by flushing it down to 1.0 ec. Hope this is enough, dont want to flush with plants in it early on. - 4 hours later i am done flushing them, had to give 9l water pH 6.5-6.3 ppm 10, to each of the 3 gallon fabric pots. Got the ppm down from 2400-2300 to 600-700, ppm. I sat them on the bathroom since i got heating cables there. The flushing also comprimised the soil, so i might add some seedling and cutting soil to fill it up ( since it is free from fertz) and clay pebbles on top as i read that would prevent pestesides to enter the soil and protect the roots from light. - The seedlings is getting 10 DLI now under 20 hours of light. 01.12.22/D2 -All 8 germinated within 36 Hours after i dropped the seeds in Rqs easy start. 4 northern light auto (and 4 white widow auto) 02.12.22/D3 - i give them water with pure zym, about 50-100ml depends how light they are to lift. done want to overwater at this stage. 05.12.22/D6 - Had to spray with water on one of the seedlings to remove some of the seed capsule, as the leaves could not open. 06.12.22/D7 - Dialed in lights, they now get 15-16 DLI.

07.12.22/D8 - DLI 15-16. All good, just giving them water with pure zym pH 6.8 when they feel light to lift. 10.12.22/D11 - DLI raised to 18.5. Gave them last watering without fertz today, will use low dose of fertz next watering.

14.12.22/D15 - Transplanted to final pots, watered them with 335 ppm solution, 6.5 pH, 1L each. Sprinkled some mycorhizza on their roots. 15.12.22/D16 - Looking much better already, will tune up the lights later today as i did not want to further stress them after transplant i give them about 14-18 DLI. 16.12.22/D17 - Tuned down lights to 11-12 DLI. Want them to stretch some before i top them. 17.12.22/D18 - Very slow growth compared to my last grow. Hope to see some growing soon🙏 19.12.22/D20 - Seem to have some issues with high pH in the runoff, hope this will settle. Growing is going good again, hope that i did not stunt them too long. I wanted to top the 5th. Node, but i feel the window for topping is closing any day now . I stunted them for some days early on. Should be done before 3rd week but lets see how it goes:) - upped DLI from 14-16 too 22-23 20.12.22/D21 - They are now growing like they should. The problem was low temps, high humidity (bad vpd). And i could have fed them at a earlier stage. Bad conbination, but it is what it is.. hope i can get a long veg period on these. :) 21.12.22 - Took a pic from my watering schedule this week. The reason ppm is high in runoff is because the soil is fertilized. The high runoff pH i think might be from phospourus needs of the plant, but i have to see next watering if its still high or not. Below 7 is fine, but want them closer to 6 at this point.

22.12.22/D23 - Decided to try out fimming (5th node) as this is less stressfull then topping. this is my first time fimming, and i hope i got it right. Will be fun to see this development. I also removed the 2 bottom shoots as they never really branch out + it creates a better airflow and more height from the soil. - also tuned up lights, to 28.5-30 DLI on their tops. 23.12.22/D24 - I fimmed 3 of them today, hope i got it right🙏 the last one is not ready, but i will probably fim or top her aswell in a few days. 24.12.22/D25 - the new seedling in the tent is a northern light. I elevated the white widows and tuned lights so they get 30-32 DLI. ( and that makes the seedling get 11-12 DLI, but i have to give her 14 hours of light for this to work. So will need to take her in and out at about 12:00 at night and move her back 06:00 in the morning.

29.12.22/D30 - Some of them entered pre-flower. Starting LST training from today. Hope to see some good stretching this week🙏 01.01.23/D33 - Filled up with more soil in the pots as the soil that was in there had some air pockets (made the water run down without soaking the soil). And i adjusted the LST strings. They are very small and compact, makes it hard to get all the shoots in the light. 02.01.23/D34 - I set DLI to 36-38. 03.01.23/D35 - I think the growing is going very slow, i have not seen a good stretch yet, waterings are good pH wise, and they have enough ppm in runoff. But still i feel that something is wrong compared to my last grow at this stage..

05.01.23/D35 - Did some more LST today, will give them some water tomorrow as my pH pen is not working properly. 06.01.23/D36 - PH pen have been unaccurate for a long time. Must be the reason for all the deficiencies and slow growth.. i hope i can salvage some of this grow now that i got a new pH pen. Just have to let it soak 12 hours before i can use it. I will water them all tomorrow with the right values. 07.01.23/D37 - Watered all with feed, and did some super cropping and LST again. I am very dissapointed with myself on this grow so far, but i hope i can turn this around. I managed to break a shoot when i did the LST on one of them ( think it was WW3). 08.01.23/D38 - They seem to be happy again, pH pen was the trick + i tuned down lights to 80% to let them recover some. Did some super cropping and LST. The crippled one is what it is, but will be fun to see the development:) 09.01.23/D39 - Did some leaf tucking and i see its about time to defoliate 2 of them soon. 11.01.23/D41 - Tuned up the lights to 33-36 DLI above canopy tops. 12.01.23/D42 - Defoliated today, think i got most shoots in the light. Tried to keep it at maximum 10% to bit stress them too much.

13.01.23/D43 - I defoliated the lower part as they are pretty short and foliage is down in the soil, now i think they might get better airflow and less humidity trapped down there. 15.01.23/D45 - Trying to get the heat on the tents down, flowering started and removed the oscillating fans as direct air on them now is not good for trichomes, and the humidifier. Installed some pc fans to create air circulation around the plants instead, and the dehumidifier to prevent rh getting above 50% to prevent mould.

23.01.23/D53 - Growing good, smell is getting more intense and i see they are developing sugar on their leafs:) picked off some dead foliage. 24.01.23/D54 - Since runoff ppm is this low, i feel i can safely up the feed. Will give WW2,3 and 4 about 900 ppm next feed.

27.01.23/D57 - Was a bit late, but had to defoliate WW3. She had too much foliage for good enough airflow. 28.01.23/D58 - Getting frosty :)

11.02.23/D72 - Growing is good, bulking up :) 11.02.23/D72 - all pistils is orange/brown on WW2, so i tok some pics of her trichomes. Seems that most is transparent, maybe 50/50 and cloudy. 16.02.23/D77 - Took some trichome pics, seems like they are in transition from transparent to cloudy. I want about 10-20% amber before i chop. Had to support WW1 ( the small mutated one ) as she is too heavy on one side, her roots as ripping up.. so i made an anchor with soft ties i use for LST training. Hope this will keep her in the soil untill harvest day :)

22.02.23/D83 - Elevated lights a it, DLI is now 35-40 instead of 40-45. Did this as i got told in late flowering ( ripening process ) they need less light.

24.02.23/D85 - Got some pics of trichomes on WW2, i want about 70% milky/cloudy, 15% transparent and 15% amber when i chop. Think she is ready very soon. 27.02.23/D88 - I reduced water temps too 16-17 degrees from about 19-21. I do this for a better appeal on the buds, and maybe increased trichome production. I do this after i read about a study that say it simulates the autumn and colder rain. The resin increase has not been proven by this ( after what i read ) but the bud appeal is legit.

Started late with nutes and too much light in the end.
