Dear Diary, As the flowering phase progresses into its 56th day, the gradual adjustments in nutrient solutions, pH, and light intensity aim to support a successful harvest. Trichome observations are carefully monitored to achieve the desired level of ripeness before harvest. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 ⏰ Day 116 Fed the plants with a solution strength of 1.51ms and pH adjusted to 6.4. Notably, I've started to observe some purple coloring on GC #3. The lights were further lowered to a maximum of 730ppfd, with a range of 550-700 for most of them. Temperature conditions are maintaining around 22.5-23°C during the day and 19-20°C at night, with a relative humidity (RH) of approximately 50%. ⏰ Day 117 Fed the plants with a solution strength of 1.43ms and pH at 6.2. ⏰ Day 118 Fed the plants with a solution strength of 1.43ms and pH adjusted to 6.3. The lights were lowered to a maximum of 700ppfd. ⏰ Day 119 Fed the plants with a solution strength of 1.31ms and pH set to 5.8. Light intensity was further reduced to a maximum of 680ppfd. I checked the trichomes on GC #3 and found they are approximately 50/50 clear to cloudy, with a few amber ones here and there. The target is mostly cloudy with 15-20% amber. ⏰ Day 120 Fed the plants with a solution strength of 1.31ms and pH adjusted to 5.9. Due to the lights being on lower power, temperature conditions are now around 22-22.5°C when the lights are on and 20-21°C when they're off. Relative humidity (RH) levels are around 55% with lights on and 50% with lights off. ⏰ Day 121 (Day 56 Flower) Changed over to watering only with a pH of 6.2. Instead of a flush, I'll continue with water for the last 1.5-2 weeks. I plan to pH the water for a few days before providing straight tap water, considering its natural pH of around 8-9, which should prevent further nutrient uptake without introducing stress through excessive flushing. Trichomes' appearance: GC #3: 60% cloudy, 40% clear.

Nice looking diary! Do you have a set limit for raising the ppfd by day or week or what? And the reasoning for that?
Yebis42
Yebis42commented2 years ago
@DBQush, I guessed so, I'm using the same. It's a good base for planning your own schedule. Doing a bit of experiment and was wondering maybe adding my other ir/fr to the veg tent to see if I can get some stretching action going on.. Will be monitoring your diary closely, keep up the good work!

@Yebis42, I am basing it on the DLI per week that DeBacco University recommends in his video about DLI in relation to yields. But it seems to match up with the same numbers that for example “Photone” recommends, as I also use their iOS app for the readings. But ofc I just use these as a guideline and try and look at how the girls respond to each gradual increase as those numbers are if everything else is perfect. I actually just backed down the lights again to 290ppfd as I was seeing some other issues and by lowering the light it should give them a easier time recovering.

Hey man, congrats for the harvest! I'm growing this strain too, week 4 flowering done. In my opinion is slower than I though, and I saw also your flowering stage was 9+ weeks (breeder says: 7 weeks flowering)

@DeepWaterGrower, thanks man! Yeah when they say 7 weeks, I don’t think they take the first “transition” week into account, and then call it done as soon as the harvest window opens. But at least for me it make sense to push them for another week or two too get as much good shit as possible! Either way I’m super happy the end result as this badboy really kicks your ass when smoking haha

underfed plants, leafy, undeveloped buds, sorry but its not even 7/10, pretty bad...

DBQushcommenteda year ago
@gaby_kicks, haha a 7/10 on my 2nd grow I will consider a compliment, so thanks man! I do personally think the Wedding cheesecakes in the same grow turned out a bit bitter, but even with the Gorilla Cookies, super frosty and consistently dense buds in both the top and bottom off the canopy, leaves me quite happy. Also helps that she netted just shy of 160g dry and smokes like a beauty! Maybe one day you will start a diary here and show “how it’s done”, but until then, keep on keeping on haha
