Got myself a clone..smile..a Cheddar Cheese clone..i've tasted and enjoyed this strains buds..and now i finally have my own plant..im surely going to clone from her when she is all grown..smiles..let the journey begin...smilesss....
So I change systems..from Coco Coir to TF-DWC..she has been growing extremely slow,almost no growth for the first week.. hopfully this week she will show some growth..but good things takes time..just know she will go great in DWC..
She has started to grow so well untill i started to see white little things on th leave..used my microscope and it looks like spidermite..thats a big problem..i cut off all the leaves that were mostly infected..i mix water and surgical spirits together and sprayed her down last night..she is showing no signs if stress and is growing well.. have to spray her down again later tonight..hopefully i can win this battle since i got them in th early stages..wish me luck...
She is growing slow and very upset(yellow leaves)..So I found out my nutes have depleted..got help from a friend..he spared me some nutes..so with week 6 we will see how she does..nutes i got from my friend is GH Flora series..bt first a flush abt the end of this week then we start fresh week6..fingers crossed
Big Thnx to my friend for the help with the nutes... my baby is growing beautifully.. and agree ies growing fast..topped the one branch just waiting on the other branches to grow a little more before I top them too...recovered well..let see how it goes...fingers crossed...
So..with the nute problem I had..it set me and the plant back..meaning im going to hav to veg her for longer..also want to clone from her so she need to grow..she is growing very very wel no problems at all..very healthy..just have to keep it that way..trend and trained her..now just got to give her time..
So I was only suppose to flush for 3days but ended up flushing for a week..which is week 8..week9 its back to nutes fresh nutes I might add..got new nutes EHG..but overall my girl is growing beautifully..2 more weeks in veg..1 week for branch growth before topping and using that for clones..that will make all th shoots dominant hopfully..and then the last week of veg jus to get her to a better size before we start with flowering..
So after a week of fresh nutes she is back and very happy! I still had of the nutes my friend gave me but only the floragro..will its working very well..now to start pushing her..she responded to the LST well..new branch growth..think ima give it a week or two then cut for clone..but for now I'm going to let her be..
Stepped up the FloraGro to 4ml/lt..alittle scared she will get nute burn but turns out to be oky..no signs of burn,no deficiencies, no stress..im jus loving it..Ph did drop after 2 days bt that is normal. I just Ph up and she was good through it all..im very happy..and she is growing super fast now the way she is supposed too..but it happens..glad im past it..looking forward now..the branch growth is just amazing. Next week we clone..but im only going to take 3 clones..basicaly only need one or two of them..have a good one..
She is doing so well..so last week of veg then we switch to flowering..but before that...this last week we going to do some training,toping and trimming to boost the branch growth and make sure all branches gets enough light..also will be cutting 3 branches for Clones..hopefully 1 of the 3 will root..the mother..her roots are growing well i must say...so change Nutrients as well..from here on she will only get GHE Flora Series..once this week is done its just a 4day Flush than we switch over to flowering..besides everything she is growing healthy..no burns no pets no yellow no slow growth no nothing..she is just at peace..
so i flushed her for a week..was suppose to be only 4days..but i was waiting for the other plant to finish..well..she is realy doing wel now..next week is transition week off to flowering..
We did alot this week..we moved her to a bigger reservoir and moved her up in to the flowering box..much more light..i added the 80W LED panel to th 211W CFLs i have and added strips to th sides..she is healthy and is stretching well..due to th flowering phase..trained her some more..need to spread her out nicely under the lights..let the Bloom commence!
At the end of the second week of flowering and she finally started to show signs of flowering..so happy..
So 2 weeks of Transition and we off to week1 of Early Bloom..
really hoping for the best here..wish us luck..im happy with her over all health..no deficiencies...
She is into here flowering stage..she is just so lovely and green! She is just realy happy..there Ph was much more stable without the water pump..guess th water pump isnt meant for flowering..or its not that..it works fine its just that the PH drops alot with the pump bt this week her Ph is better it did drop but it wasnt that bad..and i must add she is blooming very well..im realy happy..just hope she behaves herself till the end..fingers crossed..going to Flush her for 2 Days before I start the nutrients of Week 16..for now I just need to flush of all this waste..
She is flowering very well..I am really happy with the way she is growing..Its only in early bloom now but she is already pushing trichomes..
Having problems with the fan leaves! they are healthy but thy grow bigger and is causing no light to reach the bottom flowers..dont realy want to cut them..
So i cut about 7 leaves off just to get some light to the bottom..
her PH dropped on day 3 of this week..picked it back up..
Overall She is a beauty!
Had to do some light adjustments..all good for the week to come..
I can only smile..thot she is taking here time the production of trichomes is unbelievable! she is growing so well..the only problem i have is that her leaves are in the way of the lower branches and i dnt want to stress her in any way..other than that im happy with her..her PH drops fast with the water pump on so from here on out no water pump only air stone..cant wait to see her fully grown..
So another week at its end..She is blooming well in happy..sugar build up is just beautiful! i bought Florakleen to flush her of before we go into our last 3weeks of flowering..Im really happy with the way she is growing..steady..really cant wait to harvest her..
Sorry that I don't have pictures..i currently do not have access to a camera..sorry..
Well it's the end of week 19 and the start of week 20(week 8 of Flowering)
What can I say she is growing steady but not as big and fat as i had hoped for..but then again its not over yet..still have 3weeks to go..but i feel that CFL just gives you average sized buds nothing extreme..
I'm still happy with the way she is growing..healthy..there are no signs of stress not even alittle..just the lower buds aren't getting enough light..but I'm learning.. with the next plants I'll sort make sure to get more light to them..well thats the end of week 19...
week 20 here we come..
Still have no access to a camera..sorry for no photos..will see what i can do..
Well the end of Week 20 also Week 8 of flowering and she is coming along well..this was suppose to be the last week of flowering before ripen..but I'm going to push her another 2weeks and in week 10 of flowering I'll ripen then..the trichomes are still mostly clear but has started going cloudy to the end of this week..here Ph keeps droping and fast..in a day the Ph drops then I just Ph up and she good again..she is drinking less water than before..also because the water pump is off..she has put on some weight but she is still growing so two more weeks here we come..next week is late bloom and then ripen..wish me luck fingers crossed..
Week 21 / Week 9 of Flowering
Finally made a plan for pics..sorry its not the best quality but its better than nothing right..smile..
Last week of Flowering..Basically Late flower stage now..I must say she did put on some weight in this past week.. and its not clear on the pics but she is loaded with trichomes actually bursting with trichomes..I also added an Ice bottle every morning which brought the water temp down to 18'C perfect.. this booster the trichomes as well..thus she is so overwhelmed with trichomes! and I'm Loving it!! Her Thichomes are mostly cloudy white and very very few are amber and same goes for the amount of clear ones.. i could actually count them..its almost at its highest content of THC just have to get them all cloudy white in which that will happen this week coming which is the Ripening week and then a flush for 2 days with Florakleen..was thinking of Flushing for 3 days with a lower dosage..but i first have to see how the Thichomes look before flush..
well wish me luck.. well grown so far..im happy could have been bigger but i understand..
Week 22 and Week 10 of Flowering - sorry for the bad picture quality.
The last week before we Harvest..so this is what has been and what will happen for this week before harvest.
1. We start of with GHE Ripen..5ml/l only Ripen alone..she will be in Ripen for the whole week..Which will end in 2 days time..
2. Once she is done with Ripen..we will start to flush but with Florakleen-2ml/l for 72 hours which is 2 days and 1 night..we will change the water just before she goes sleep on the last day of Ripen...In this period she will receive light only for the first day for 9 hours of flush and from there on we will shut the lights off for 48 hours of darkness.
3. After the dark phase..open the doors and cut her down!
So this is the plan set out..I cant wait!!!Smiles! BIG SMILES!
Totally forgot to give you an update on this beauty..
So we are 5 days into the Ripen week and i must say this stuff works like a bomb! my Trichome just exploded into more! The buds itself are fattening so nicely..and she has a beautiful smell..growth has stopped..she is just putting on weight..
The buds are very very healthy but my buds lack size..I could only wish to grow monster sized buds.. I kinda know its my lights..CFLs 2x85w 6500k and 2x23w 2700k..I know the 6500k is the wrong spectrum for flowering but its what i could get at the time..and have been using it ever since..i am looking for to buy myself the 200w 2700k CFL bulb and add 3x 23w 2700k CFLs to that which would give me 269w of 2700k..but that will probably happen with the clones that i cut from this mother plant..
Well its been an interesting experience with this lady..learnt a few new things along the way..through all her problems and stresses..we worked together and overcame them all..she is very very healthy i must add..
Soooo..today (15/03/19) is the last day of flush with Florakleen and I have no idea how she looks at this point because she has been in deep sleep since 2pm yesterday..I will only see her tomorrow when I Harvest her..But she is stinking up the place though..she has been sleeping for 24hours so far..still another 24 hours to go...then..
Harvest!!!!!
Cant wait for tomorrow!!
😋She had a an infection in the early stages of growth but recovered. I would say she grow well however the lower buds did not get much light which resulted in a lot of small nugs.. She smells very strong and the weight if the buds is heavy cause the branches can hardly hold themselves up..
She was not suppose to grow that long..22 weeks..but due to the issues I had with the nutrients set me back a few weeks.. a really nice strain to grow i must say..I realized that i do not have enough watts for the grow box..and this affects my yealds.. Its not the best yeald in the world but its bud i didnt have..
Really not happy with the dry weight..but its oky i understand
Only real problems i had was my Ph levels that keeps dropping but that is normal i suppose..My light coverage isnt kind of bad cause i ended up with a lot of small nugs that clearly didnt get light.. well it's all about learning..im learning as i go along..every grow gets better and better..
at least this time I'm growing a strain I'm mad about..
the 48hours darkness at the end of the ripen stage just before harvest makes a huge difference! the buds doubled in size but it will lose the density will drying..
buds are on the rack buzy drying..hence i could not give a dry weight yet.
I'm alittle gown looking at the buds almost dry and they shrunk in size and arent as big as they looked..its alittle heart breaking cause i got only a few good sized bud and the rest is just this little tiny nugs the size of my half my pinky finger nail..😞some are slightly bigger than that..and then the top nugs which was the main colons ..they are about 6 good sized buds..its okay i learned from her and its not a waste cause she did give me some buds in the end..
now the curing starts..going to cure for a month more or less will see as we go along..
Super Cheese Thank you!0
