YODA SODA-by VADAR OG

5/2/2023 Week 4- Day 1 of Flower (Day 89 overall) Continued to clean up the bottom area clearing out anything below the first net. This is the point in the grow that the journal typically is going to get really boring. This is the week that if I did my work right over the last few weeks they should transition from stretch into Auto Pilot. Allowing me to really sit back let them take over and just keep them fed. I really enjoy this part as I get to watch things fall into place and develop from the labor I have put in over the last weeks. Hopefully from here I only have to intervene minimally and clean up anything lower that I think is dragging the rest down but that should be it until the end. I do think I might clean up the canopy a little bit more over the next few days as I watch to ensure the stretch is over, but if the stretch is over than Time to let the buds grow!!! Again I apologize the dairy is going to get pretty boring most days from here. 5/3/2023 Week 4- Day 2 of Flower (Day 90 overall) Huston we had a problem,... I looked at my PH this morning and it had dropped down to 5.70 so I took off the lid of my Res to add some PH up and... to my surprise the water was way down, I am talking almost gone out of the res.. the Res Pump was just above the water being so low it would be slurping which would have been bad, if not caught right away it could have burned my pump motor up!! It appears that the Ladies were very hungry and have drunken a lot the last few days. Glad the plan was already set to start changing weekly from this Saturday for the rest of the grow or I would have shifted plans to start changing weekly until end. I did want to mention Frost is starting to develop and a small smell when open tent is starting to hit. I added 16 gallons and the accompanying Nutes. 16 Gallons water Added Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 8Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 16Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 8Mil FloraMicro = 4.8Mil/Gal= 77Mil FloraGro= 4.3Mil/Gal= 69Mil FLoraBloom= 5.8Mil/Gal= 93Mil LiquidKoolBloom= 2.0Mil/Gal= 32Mil TPS SIGNAL= 2.0Mil/Gal= 32Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 8Mil 5/4/2023 These Are Yoda Soda.. so May the 4th be with you...Get it week 4... on the 4th... LOL! Week 4- Day 3 of Flower (Day 91 overall) Did do a little defoliation in the back today. But getting really close to letting it go on auto pilot for the rest of the grow. 5/5/2023 Week 4- Day 4 of Flower (Day 92 overall) Well the girls are still growing a little bit. They went from 36inches to 38 inches over the last 4 days. Last measurement was on Week 3 Day 7 so on 1 May 2023. Since they are still growing, I decided to defoliate a little bit more. I will keep watching them for no more growth. The buds are starting to come in really nice. I mean it is 31 days into Flower and a lot of brown pistils are already coming in. I have a ton of frost starting to develop on the buds and fan leaves as well. I am aslo seeing some frost on the stems of the fan leaves. I think this is going to be a really frosty strain. Water Change Day tomorrow.... 5/6/2023 Week 4- Day 5 of Flower (Day 93 overall) (Day 33 of Flower) Water Change Day!! After draining the system I noticed the roots have now grown all the way through hump and into the Reservoir. These roots have been just taking off.. and going everywhere this grow. I also noticed a few sucker buds trying to grow in on the lower stems and removed them. The humidity was at 63 so I added a second dehumidifier and InkBird Controller to help keep the humidity down. I added 36 Gallons of Water Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 36Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 4.3Mil/Gal= 155Mil FloraGro= 4.3Mil/Gal= 155Mil FLoraBloom= 6.5Mil/Gal= 234Mil LiquidKoolBloom= 2.5Mil/Gal= 90Mil TPS SIGNAL= 3.0Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Water Temp= 70.1 Tent Temp= 71 Humidity =62 5/7/2023 Week 4- Day 6 of Flower (Day 94 overall) Why is it during this time a whole bunch of Sucker buds always want to appear.. LOL!! Took out the sucker buds showing up on the lower area started to thin out between the two nets and took any blatant fan leave blocking a lower but site. 5/8/2023 Week 4- Day 7 of Flower (Day 95 overall) Did what should be the last measurement and the one branch that didn't get Super Cropped or SCROGed down hit 39 and 1/2 inches. So I flipped when they were at 24 Inches and they grew 15 and 1/2 inches during stretch. Growth Percentage = (growth / initial height) X 100 = (15.5/24)X100= 64.5 Growers estimated Stretch was 70%. I also said that I am going to let it go on auto pilot but I figured that I would go ahead and defoliate a few leaves that stuck out to me as just needing to go, blocking lower bud sites from getting good light.
