TickleToast Thought this gal might be a runt or damping off - but she picked up just before weeks end! 🙏🙏🙏 Onward! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Topped a day prior to this entry. LEDs bumped to 100% She's looking very healthy and all set for mainline training! Forgot to snap a picture before topping, my bad! (was ~9'' beforehand) ~~~~~~~~~~ First small bit of defoliation - this grow I topped at 4 nodes, and we just did away with the bottom larf leaving the middle two sets of nodes. Rather than a traditional mainline I'm going to stick with this (like with a few past grows) - its less time and stress with the same end result :) Tie downs are next! ~~~~~~~~~~ I notice that Its week three and I didn't up the PPM like I normally do. Thats my bad, I redid week 1 and 2! Not a problem whatsoever, just missing out on some growth and will have some lighter foliage until we get things bumped up! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me!

TickleToast Thinking that this method of mainlining is the way to go for DWC. Keeping it all on the same nodes is just counterintuitive to everything, it just takes longer - this method provides the same 8 primaries, and it takes less time and is less stressful! The RH has been getting a tad high at night ~70% - adjusting! Gal has been dragging her feet a little bit so I held off on tie downs a little longer than usual. ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me!

TickleToast Went ahead and defoliated a bit more - force this gal to stretch and catch up to others in the tent. Looking good, scrog soon and onward to flower! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Gal is looking good, starting to branch out nicely and will start to tuck / trellis this week. ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Flipping to flower a bit early here to keep up with the rest of the tent. Small defol for light pen and airflow. Starting at 20'' from lamp and will grow into ~10-12'' Lets goooooo!!! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast So far looking good! One week and we have pistils, very good sign. Forgot to get the CO2 generator going but it made for a nice test for the strain, see how fast/slow of a starter she is.

TickleToast Bud formations are starting to show themselves, tracking well and looking good! Had to do a decent defol for light pen and airflow - keep mold at bay and things going smoothly :D ~~~~~~~~~~ GH Europe finally changed their name as you can see from above.

TickleToast No more silica! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Roots are looking very good, decided to go ahead and cut floralicious plus from my mix. You just don't need the extra potash/phosphate/nitrogen when using koolbloom and Fish Sh!t. Also, my fear is that using too much organics will bite me in the ass late flower with these buckets & netcups, very airy / no pressure - and is just overkill in veg as it is. Overall looking very well! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Looks good and smells insane!!! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Gal if tracking well top to bottom and showing bits of amber. Might not do 2nd week of ripen, will just have to see how she does the following days. Smells insane and looking fantastic! ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me! Thanks for stopping by growmies! 🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏

TickleToast Made it to a 2nd week of ripen - gal is super foggy and showing some bits of amber. Don't think she will see a full week so most likely she'll drain this bucket of its 3gals and then be ready for flush (3-4 days). Actual PPM is more like 1000 right now due to this plants salt/nutrient retention. I will be updating my profile page soon, with my day-to-day practices and explain that in more detail. ~~~~~~~~~~ Flush on day 61 of flower - should be passing 10-15% amber by the end (4 days). All I used in flush is PH'd dechlorinated water / bennie / and a little humic acid. Seemed the better route than using something like foraclean. I will have an updated nutrient spreadsheet on the first entry of the next diary, reflecting this change, as per usual. 48hrs darkness (last two days flush) ~~~~~~~~~~ Questions & Feedback are welcomed, feel free to message me!

TickleToast Cherry Pie (Feminised Photoperiod) ~Female Seeds~ https://www.femaleseeds.nl/shop/cherry-pie/ Indica ~ Cherry AK x Purple Punch Flowering Time: 56-70 Days 20% THC - Unkown CBD - Unkown ~~~~~~~~~~ Overall, very satisfied with this harvest - minimal issues considering its a fresh start in a new location. TOTAL LIGHT POWER USED is off - It was under one XS-2000/240watts. It just wouldn't let me fix the mistake after I noticed it. Mid veg I ended up opening the tent for some additional RH control. Eventually I will do away with the tent altogether and put up some reflective mylar in the room - giving me some more space to work with. Plan was always to double up and have half DWC (potentially RDWC eventually) and the new 6x will be either CoCo or a drip/pot system of some kind. Not this next grow, but possibly the start of next year - and potentially sponsored, stay tuned! About 6-7g Keif pulled from the trimbim. Trim was added to what was collected from my 5x "Critical" plants. About a full gallon bag - threw into cold storage until I get a press sometime next year and turn it all into rosin, or maybe edibles. Will have 2x more XS2000's by flower of next grow - Try and get some even bigger numbers out of 6 plants / less popcorn. It's worth noting that with these large net pots the hydobucket lets in a solid chunk of airflow and lacks pressure like a 5gl bucket system. Use pot covers to put over your hydroton to mitigate that airflow and prevent mold in the top space of your root system. I saw a tiny bit in another grow and so I hit it with the hose during a nute swap - never saw it again. Southern AG, so far, is working as expected - smaller doses than hydroguard and saving $$$ My apologies for the poor quality trichome photos.
