NPK7 7.5 3.75 7.5 3/8" tsp/gal
Second grow of the season - started from clones on 07.10 - 2 of each from the previous. Technically this diary starts from about week 10, but veg will probably last at least another month until they fill out. After rooting, they were intentionally kept small as possible in 4-5" pots because there simply wasn't enough tent room.
09.29 Gal NPK7 pH 6.2
09.28 2nd application of SM90 to deal with spider mites lingering from previous flower grow
09.27
09.26 transferred to 7gal air pots. Avg height 20-22" 1/2 Gal water-in pH 6.4
09.25 6 cup pH 6.0-6.2
09.24
09.23 1st application of SM-90 to deal with spider mites from previous flower
09.22 6-8 cup NPK7
Fall is definitely here in the midwest. Most daytime temps struggle to get to 70, and is usually at least partly cloudy. Given that there are now 6 in 7gal pots. They are indoors from this point forward. At least I don't have to use the AC.
10.06 Gal pH 6.18-6.35, 2c NPK7. Avg height 22-26"
10.05
10.04
10.03 Soil and weight check - no water needed yet
10.02 Checking for spider mites, thankfully not finding them. Indoor only at this point, weather is cold and not going to cooperate any more.

10.13 water usage has been really low. Gal pH 6.4 added to both M1s and M2. S1 is still quite heavy. All are in stretch phase esp M2 and S1 as expected.

10.09 Took clones today - 2 of each.
10.08 Last day for daylight schedule - they are approaching the net.
10.07 Most likely this will be the last week - trying to get the two indica dominants to gain a little more height (they do not double in flower stretch).
10.20 M1 M2 gal pH 5.72, 1/2 gal NPK10 pH 6.50. Need to start defoliation soon, only a couple of inches left for stretch. S1 still water heavy.

10.17 gal NPK10 pH 5.92
10.16 Stretch in full swing. 2+ inches a day or so, light density avg 60k lux, low spots in low 20k, high 100k.
10.15
10.14 Gal pH 6.4 for S1s and other M2. With colder basement temps, the water usage has dropped off to about every 4-6 days.
10.27
10.26
10.25 M1, M2 gal pH 5.72-5.78. Trimmed S1 lower sapling. M2 clones showing root taps
10.24 Lower sapling trim on 4, will finish other 3 soon.

10.21 First round of defoliation. Found spider mites again, damn - what a headache. Avg height 44-50" S1 gal pH 5.7 1/2 gal NPK10 pH 6.5
Light adjustment to the top, with some minor leaf / top node burn. Nodes are getting bigger, and the clones finally show enough root tap formation to transplant to 4" pots. All still have much lower water transpiration with a water schedule of 5-7 days, vs the 3-4 in the summer run.

10.28 gal pH 5.72 S1
11.10 S1-2 1/2 gal NPK10 pH 6.25 water uptake is still really slow
11.09
11.08 M1, M2, S1-1 gal pH 5.90 1/2 gal NPK10 pH 6.25. Curiously - S1-2 still not ready - it maybe a function of the oscillator with no real direct contact.

11.04 M1, M2 gal NPK10 pH 6.05 2nd round of defoliation of fans above the screen.
M2 is getting "weak knees" again like before. I'm hesitant to try to compensate for it in the nutrient cycle because I've purposefully kept the pH levels high for the last 2 or 3 weeks along with hard water it should provide more than enough bioavailability for calcium. Using green tie and rope ratchets to keep them up. The resins are coming online as they have gotten a lot stickier, and the scent is getting stronger. Clones are finally getting healthier and putting on new growth.
11.22 M1, M2, S1-1 gal NPK10 pH 5.75. S1 stems becoming week knees as it puts on weight. Support with rope ratchet and green tie. Spider mites still a pain, sprayed clones.

11.18 S1 gal pH 6.05
This week, and final weeks remaining are tapering off the NPK, and consistently adding in the molasses. Many of the tall stems are being propped up again.
12.08 S1 sugar gal pH 6.45, 1/2 gal NPK5 pH 6.35
12.07 M2 sugar gal pH 6.35, 1/2 gal NPK5 pH 6.25

12.04 F56 S1, M2 sugar gal pH 5.65. M1 was still a little heavy.

This week is about dropping the nutrient cycle, and adding in the final push for molasses. Flower buds are ripening, but still need time for trichomes to become cloudy / brown.
sugar = 5ml / gal
sugar10 = 10ml / gal

12.14 M1, S1-2 sugar10 gal pH 6.5 stems becoming heavy, many sub nodes are dropping.

12.11 F63
12.10 M1 1/2 gal NPK5 pH 6.40
12.09 M1 sugar gal pH 6.55
Dropped light schedule to 10hrs for the remainder of time. Final or, probably 2nd to final week - closer inspection of trichome development looks not quite done. Still a lot of clear. Lower winter temps with a lights on max high of 70, 71 slows down development. The summer series finished F65-73.

Est Results
Im estimating a 1/2oz per qt jar. Last time I gram weighed it at the start of jar cure, and it was still too soon.
M1 7 jars 2oz top, 1.5oz mid
M2 13 jars 5.5oz top, 1oz mid
S1 9 jars 3.5oz top, 1oz mid
01.08 F91 Both S1 harvested. 5hrs
01.07 M2 jarred. A little more dry than I would ideally like, but still bendy.
01.06 M1 jarred for cure, a little too dry.
01.05 F88 S1-1 partial harvest, largest colas collapsed
01.04
01.03 F86 M2-2 harvested: 2 large 3hr
01.02 M2-2, S1 sugar10 gal pH 6.40
12.31
12.30 F82 M2-1 harvested: 2 large 3.75hr
12.29 M2, S1 sugar10 gal pH 6.40
12.28 F80 M1-2 harvested: 2 large 2.5hr
Start of harvest.
12.27 F79 M1-1: Nearly all trichomes are opaque, however the M1's are starting to hermie more than I can keep up with trimming tips so it's time. 2.5 hours of trimming, produced a lot of mids, and 4 colas.
12.26
12.25 F77
12.24 All sugar10 gal pH 6.5
12.23 Frost on all 3 is finally almost 100% milk white. A few clear still on M1. Bananas found in more places than I'd like. Mites are still a PITA esp with clones.
