Liberty Haze | 2023

plants were transplanted into the RDWC system

okay, week 7 in veg and after some topping and LST plants look great, however plants are still way too short, around 15 cm

pH is dropping daily like crazy – from 6.3 in the morning to 5.3 in the afternoon – roots are awesome, no signs of root rot at all – possibly EC is too high – possibly pumping too much air into the solution causing "acid rain effect" if pH drops again, I: 1) top off with fresh tap water to lower EC 2) if does not help, i am flushing the whole system and reducing EC to 1.2 (from current 1.4)

from the original duo, the one on the left is still soooo small and bushy yet some stretch should be happening – first time like this and hopefully it's gonna yield more than a few g's 😃 also moved my experiment hydro setup from other box to big one trying to save it, not exactly one of the healthiest 😞

– the one on the left is getting worse and worse, I am trying my best, but small 2-litre DIY hydro bucket isn't exactly helping me 😂 – the middle one... well... I reconciled it's gonna remain this small yet absolutely healthy 🤷‍♂️🏻 I'll just keep on trimming excessive branches and foliage to reduce bushiness – the one on the right really wants it all – nutes, water, light, everything; absolute textbook example 👌🏻

the one in the middle has some issues because of pH & EC fluctuations (my mistake) but otherwise buds are forming nicely 👌🏻and that node spacing on the right plant is looking super promising 😈 and then we have the one on the left that's kinda recovering so fingers crossed 🤞🏻 end of week update: speed of those buds fattening is incredible, every day they're becoming bigger and bigger 😮

lets start from the right: 1) the one on the right is textbook! buds are fattening, smell is getting more intense every day 2) buds on the one in the middle are also fattening like crazy despite small size of the plant, i am really curious about output of this plant 3) the one on the left is still alive and to be honest it gets the least attention because it was originally an experiment any guesses as for yield? 😈 ----- end of the week update: 1) pistils of the one on the right are starting to mature and they're slowly turning brown 2) the one in the middle decided to go even crazier and monstorous buds are forming 3) the one on the left I found with empty res begging for some water, ups 😅

the biggest plant on the right is booming, the one in the middle as well and fingers crossed for that one on the left not to die 😃 ––––– for some reason the one on the left does not want to start maturing, maybe stressed her way too much 😞 ––––– today i checked trichomes for the first time and vast majority is still clear eventhough pistils are turning orange 😊

this week lets start from the left: 1) wow, despite looking almost dead the buds fattened like hell during past week! I have to re-calculate my expectations regarding yield 😃 2) good news regarding crippled one in the middle – it finally begun to ripe! hopefuly I am going to harvest it at least semi-riped 3) the one on the right is huuuuuge and it amazes me every day – interesting is how pistils are all orange/ brown yet trichomes under microscope are still majorly clear! ----- new 4K microscope is on the way so expect some microscope pics later this week! ----- okay, that microscope is kinda amazing for 51 € 😮 look at those pics!

we're getting closer and closer to the harvest week every day! based on trichomes under microscope we have about one week left, two tops 😊 ---- fresh microscope pics were added – the one on the left and the one in the middle have mostly clear trichomes, the big one on the right has just a few clear ones left, majority is milky and therefore I estimate this is last week before flushing 😊

I must say I am satisfied with this grow after all 😊 Buds are awesome, yield is massive, what else a man can wish 🤙🏻
