Easy week.
The triplets gain only an inch this past week, which is normal considering they are growing in a 5 gallon pot and are establishing roots, nothing like a good base structure to grow stronger 🙃
Speaking of stronger.. tomorrow i will start the feeding with my Diablo Nutrients starter kit.
Monster Rootz that i used for the first two weeks did very well, you can already see little colas branches coming out from the first fan leaves.
The plant on the right has some weird looking leaf kinda dis form which i am not worried about as the new growth looks pretty healthy.
Another easy week.
Yesterday January 14th i increased the light dial from 25% to 50%
Also raised the light distance from the plants from 16" to 20".
All 3 looks healthy besides #2 being bigger than the other 2 🤔
I am not complaining 😂
Not much to say... everything went just fine this past week.
They get thirstier as they get bigger don't they 😄
Toppings and defoliations coming up by midweek or so.
Smooth sailing ⛵️ for the triplets.
On Friday the 27th i removed bottom fan leaves on all 3 and did topping on #2 and #3 as #1 seems to be behind a bit compared to the other 2, i will topped her when she catches up to the other 2.
Also i installed the trellis and will be doing some ScrOG.
Sunday the 29th did defoliation took out some more fan leaves.
All went well this week besides the 3 hours power outage on Monday Jan 30th,
I did some defoliation on Friday Feb 3rd
And also topped triplet #1, she is at 8" tall now, #2 at 10" and #3 at 9" tall.
Today February 05th I've increased the light dial at 75% and raised the light at 30" from the plants.
I've been doing some ScrOG using the trellis. I am somewhat tempted todo some LST but not sure when is the right time to do so and what's the advantages of doing so.... will be reading about it 😅
Feel free to drop your LST expertise in the comments below 👇🏻 and thanks for stopping by ✌️🏻
Started the week by topping all the colas, my inexperience got me to topped the lower colas as well as my stoner ass was just thinking about doubling the yield 😅😆🤣
Joke aside I don't think it will make a big impact height wise as the triplets are short as it is. Friday February 11th i did some major defoliation i topped all the fan leaves on the colas except for the 2 fan leaves on top of the colas. I am thinking of flipping them on February 23rd, perhaps before it all depends on how fast the new growth grows.
So for now i am not sure if i will be using my trellis(net) for ScrOGing 🤔
I'll leave it at that for now and will go with the flow.
Thanks for stopping by and wish you all a wonderful week. 😃😙💨💨
Hello 👋🏼 Readers,
All went well this week, did some more defoliation mainly the 2 top fan leaves that i had left on the previous week as the new growth leaves were now open and begging for more light 😄
~Off with their Heads~ 👸🏻♥️
I kept 2 small colas that i cut when defoliating i will attempt to clone but not having high hopes 😅
Friday February 17th, Day 54 the Triplets went to bed early and are now getting 12 hours of sleep.
🤔 also i shuffled around the plants, switching places for #2 and #3 .
As #3 didn't seem to absorb the nutrients(water) as same as other 2....
I mean I might sound weird but i lift just a bit the 5 gallon bucket to feel the weight and #3 often felt heavier as if she didn't like it in far right side of the grow tent 😳😂
Fed them just a little bit yesterday and this morning I manually weighed them and #3 felt lighter than yesterday before feeding. I will keep an eye peeled on #2 who is now on that side of the tent just incase but she's bushier than the other 2 and absorb well her nutrient, she might be just fine there 🤔😂
Hello 👋🏼 Readers.
The triplets's first week into flowering looking good so far 🤞🏻
#3 isn't absorbing her juice as the other two... and some of her leaves tips are drying out 🤔will need to do some reading about that. Not sure what to think as the other two plants don't have that same issue.
I have been adjusting the Diablo Nutrients for flowering and the girls are loving it, especially #2 as she absorbs her nutrients very well as if she was a kitchen sink 😄
Thanks for stopping by and feel free to share your thoughts on #3 drying leaf tips.
Hello 👋🏼 Readers.
Past week was and still is exciting for me as the triplets are revealing their true colours 🤩
Last Sunday i mentioned that i increased the light at 85% well that lasted 2 days as i raised the light at 30" and turned the dial at 💯%
The heat in the GT raised to 30°C
I had to closed the ventilation trap in the bedroom and cracked open a tiny bit the window and now maintaining it at about 27°-28°C.
also opened the bottom far right side GT trap to half it's against the wall and for more control of the humidity level
I use the trap on the bottom left and the peep trap on the GT door to control humidity and heat and close the bedroom window when the girls go to sleep.
I have more defoliation to do but that won't be until the end of week 3 of flowering.
Thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave comments and wish you all a great week 😀
Hello 👋🏼 Readers
This week was a photos festival,
I skipped adding pictures of Monday and Tuesday 😅 so i added only Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday 😄 hope you enjoy 😉
Thursday March 9th the Triplets got another haircut (defoliation)
I can't believe how bushy these girls are getting, removed most of the fan leaves and cutout some lower branches too small and taking energy for nothing.
Despite doing a good trim on them, it seems like more could've been done.
As times go on some more leaves removal will happen.
I started 2 clones from previous defoliation on February 17th and they've been growing slowly but steadily... eventually imma have to pot them 🤪
Still debating if i should keep them in the GT until i harvest the Triplets and keep them by the window as days are getting longer until the harvest has dried and toss them back in the GT with an 18hrs daytime or 20hrs for 6 weeks and bring them outside as the temperature in the bedroom will be too hot even with air conditioning and force them to start flowering in mid June 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔😳😂
Back to the Triplets , I've been adjusting weekly the nuts for flowering and the Diablo Nutrients Feeding Calculator tool on their website is quite handy and easy to use.
So far i like their products, haven't tried them all yet but planning to get more eventually when it's safer to orders as days are warming up... safer because when ordering any liquid products in Canada during winter is risky because of sub zero shipping temperatures may freeze your nuts(no puns intended 😆)solid and upon arrival may be damaged and leaking..
i am not sponsored by Diablo Nutrients but FYI i am running low on Monster Frost 😅🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for stopping by and feel free to like my weekly post and leave a comment .

Hello 👋🏼 Readers,
This week was like a walk in the park🚶♂️🏼
Did some defoliations and move plants around the GT, now the Triplets are back to their original birthplace spot in the tent 😄
Triplets #1 is at 16 inches tall
#2 is at 18 inches tall
#3 is at 13 inches tall
I flipped the saucer of #3 to make her taller for an even canopy.🤔
I still haven't potted the two clones😅
They're doing good their bottom stems
Are getting pretty thick
( not showing on pic )🤦♂️🏻
Question out loud just like that.
My nutrient Monster Flower is a dry format and when adding my weekly diary nutrients there is no Grams measurement 🤔
If anyone knows why reply within 🤪
So that's it for this week.
thanks for stopping by and as always feel free to like/leave a comment 😉
And wish you all a great week 😀
P.S. Happy Saint Patrick's day 🍀
Hello 👋🏼 Readers,
I didn't do much this week besides feeding the Triplets and giving them love
I introduced them to Monster Blaster this week and seems to like it😀
I haven't potted the clones yet😅
But sooner the better as one start having tiny pistils on top, might have to get them out for longer daylight and need to get perlite as i have a bag of Coir but no perlite to mix it with🤦♂️🏻
That's all for this week,
Thanks for stopping by and liking or commenting it's always greatly appreciated😃
Wish you all a great week.

Hello 👋🏻 Readers,
The triplets are coming along very nicely😀
I've been keeping the RH roughly around 34% in day time and 45-48% at night.
Last Sunday night(march 26th) upon one of my visit into the grow room to check the RH % i was received by and strong pungent berry/skunk mix odour...
It almost brought tears to my eyes😁
So i have been using the intake fan since and also it helps keeping the Humidity down to the proper flowering appropriate range, also i still keeping the room's window cracked open during daytime with some fresh cold Canadian CO2(air) coming in and that way the temperature doesn't rises to high in the grow tent.
To help allege the numerous trips into the grow room to verify the Humidity and Temperature I ordered online a WiFi humidity/temperature control sensor system, which at first is for mainly being able to verify to humidity and temperature levels with the app on my phone😅
order is out for delivery as i am writing this weekly update😁
News from the clones, they're out of the grow tent as of Friday, potted them in coco and perlite for now and trying to get them to back at VEG as them tiny buggers flipped and have tiny pistils on and top leaf turned black, since I don't have a back up tent nor a grow light i am switching them from the kitchen in the morning and dining room on afternoon....😂😅
Hopefully they'll restart VEG🤞🏻
That all said ... thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoy the pictures and the video.

Hello 👋🏻 Readers,
Triplets had a trip out of the grow tent in the middle of the week due to a major power outage, until noon in the spare bedroom and then my bedroom (facing west)on the afternoon, with a 12°C temperature in the house, bet they got more purple 😂
Luckily the power was out only 25 hours.
Other than that, all went fine this week.
I checked the trichomes with my jewelry microscope, even tried my best to take pictures 😅
The base of the trichomes are so cute to see as they are purple and fading into the clear milky form( not showing on pictures) purpled all the way✊🏻😄
This week I started using the supplement Diablo Monster-K
Which is the last supplement to be use on the end of flowering, as I started with the supplement Monster Flower, week 2 to 5 then Monster Blast, week 5 to 6 then Monster K, week 7 to 8
( ya ya ya i also used the supplement BIG BUD week 2 to 4 just because why not? i had too i couldn't help myself😅
The endgame is soon to be! but only the trichomes will have the last word on it.
and of course I gotta flush them so i need to pay close attention to the trichomes 🤨
Thanks for stopping by and taking time to check out my weekly diary updates.

Wish y'all a great week!!

Hello 👋🏻 Readers,
This week was the last feeding of the Triplets.
fed them 4 litres of water with 3 grams of Monster K on 04/15, omitted from adding grow/micro/bloom for the last feeding, figured they would have enough nutrients stored in.
So water feeding until harvesting.
The end is near, trichomes are cloudy with some rare ambers, buds have been swelling up this week and i feel like i should give them an extra week...😜trichomes permit.🤞🏻
Might make it epic and harvest on 420😳🤪😂
This pretty much wraps up the weekly update 🤔
Thanks for stopping by and feel free to like/comments and wish you all a great week!! 👊🏻😀

Hello 👋🏻 Readers,
Last week of flowering!
Photo fest!! 😂
I've been monitoring the trichomes all week (no pics).
Fed the triplets with water ph'd at 6.
About 2 litres each on Tuesday.
And 1 litres each on Friday.
Today April 23rd, after monitoring the trichomes it was decided that the amounts of amber ones(about 20 % of them)were to my satisfaction and no more clear ones, the 80 % were milky and opaque.
That said, yep!! i did the "chop chop"
So i have details about each wet weight.... but ... it will be revealed during the coming week 😉
Thanks for stopping by and feel free to like/comment! it's always appreciated😃
Wish you all a great week!! 👊🏻😀

QC Black Bud not Gold, QCS didn't have that strain in their drop down menu😅
That said! QC Black Bud is fairly easy to grow, bushy plant is expected. Berry taste Lovers? this is a Must!😉
As a newbie, yes yes a newbie! regardless of my profile saying that I'm a Master 😅 the Triplets were easy to grow regardless of my mistakes ...
What mistakes?
Well i think I might have underfed the plants due to my first grow experience where they got wet feet and i became conservative about their feedings.
And also looking back i think i should've give them more light dial when germination was done and were seedlings and into vegetation, and also the light distance during each phases of their growth.
That said!
Besides being dwarf plants 😅 they were fun to grow and I learned such a big deal from reading and following many diaries... you know who you are😉
So it has been a week drying now and the branch aren't yet snapping when bending them.
I have been keeping the RH between 45 % and 53 %
The first three days after the chopp the room was filled with a berry smell overpowered by a roadkill skunk 😜
The triplets aren't yet dead as my chopp only involved taking the branches, I couldn't just do it 😅🤣
So instead of letting them dry out
I sprinkled some Gaia Green all purpose 4-4-4 and watered them 😁
We shall see if i can get them to re-vege when warmer temperatures outside comes 🤞🏻😄
I was hoping to give a dry weight result today but it will have to wait, so stay tuned for more infos to come!
Thanks for stopping by and liking/commenting is always appreciated 😀
P.S.
I am not sure what happened this past week but i got blocked from
commenting and liking comments🙁
If anyone
wondered why i was so quiet when liking their weekly diaries.. that is why🤪
Wish you all a great week and keep on tokin!! 😗💨💨💨💨
@mcflow thanks for liking and commenting .... unfortunately due to technicality problem i had to delete week 13 VEG to update to week 13 FLO 😅😅
(blaming it to wake N bake)😆🤪
Thanks bro 👊🏻😎
@Natrona,when i am done with this grow i will also use the tent to start my outdoor garden it should be interesting to apply my new acquired knowledge on NPK for the bed-garden😁
@StarLorr, Ah.. I'm trying to learn vegetables now. Last year I grew big zucchini but no veggies, same with cukes. I got tomatoes and my husband grew a Trinidad 🦂 pepper 🌶️. As for now I started Bush beans, peas both sets about 5-6" tall they are the right size to go outside but weather wise I have at least 3-4 weeks before I can transplant to garden . And some chard and other leafy greens. I just ordered a new tent kit that should definately help with all environmental conditions for future grows.
@Natrona, I'm not sure it can be done back to veg.🤔 We shall see... if the cat 🐈 can leave them alone that would help 😂
Triplets are definitely beauties indeed! Thanks 😊
@Schneidersitz,Danke, dass Sie mein Tagebuch besucht haben, klicken Sie auf die Schaltfläche „Folgen“ und verpassen Sie nächste Woche nicht 😀 weitere positive Vibes folgen 👊🏻😃
@BEACHBUDZ757, thanks! i love them dearly 😉
Diablo Nutrients ~Starter Kit~ is what i am using right now for my first indoor grows, and i am liking it so far.
You can check their webpage @diablonutrients dot com, they also have a feeding calculator for all their nutrients from seedlings to flush, i find it very handy. And probably will be using other of their products that weren't in the Starter Kit (actually already did with monster K)😁
So ya, check it out, i got mine from Amazon 🤷♂️🏻
Thanks for stopping by
👊🏻😀
