INTRO Hi There, This is my first indoor grow. I've done a few stealthy "Greenhouse/Balcony Potted" grows before but nothing really successful. I have never given additional nutrients before, except what was in the potting ground or a drain of the garden's compost. The best grow thus far achieved was approximately 25 gr. With this closet and LED combo I have to control vertical space enormously. The LED light takes 35 cm's from the top, reducing max length to 75 cm. Which sucks monkey balls ! A few better drilled holes or chains could alleviate that but this primate isn't allowed near the power tools. I only started giving consistent feeding 2-3 weeks ago. Modifying the numbers of my brand of generic liquid nutrients to something approximating something legit, inspired by "Master Tangs" major nutrient levels. It's amazing how good this plant, with the help of this simple copycat elixir, recuperates from all my clumsy shenanigans. Awesome. These where the last beans out of the DP collector pack. And I'm so so sorry I grew the other so callously. If only ... I had improved my workflow sooner. Cheers and Many Bananas, Goarilla DIARY 26/05 Today was a difficult day, temperatures topped 32C. I've had to regularly mist all the plants (except the Blooming one ofcourse) to cool and/or increase humidity. It looks like this odd lowland heatwave is gonna last a while. It was dry today however, which is easier to deal with than that humid/swampy/sticky weather. 27/05/2017 A little more LST, using the sacred "in short supply" thick, sturdy but plastic electrical wire. Bending one of Polly's "New Big Buds" out from under the shadows of an old big bud. Oh Dear Lord, Oh Monkey Son-Messiah Monkey and Bananitus-Spiritus of the aforementioned this Princess is a giver. These buds are getting. superhard, sugar leaves are crisping and turning confidently up, down or sideways. I love this "Crisping Up". 28/05 I smoke, dream and stare for hours, looking obsessively into `that` special closet in the jungle. A true spectacle of light, scent and above all expectation. A closet with a LED lamp that is messing up my colourvision, screwing up my rods and cones. But Fuck it :D. Anxiously fighting against the heat yet again, growing a strong hate for the numbers: "30", "50" and "80". This time it is a lot more humid so I'm struggling now to keep it dry enough. These hygrometers are amazing. With it comes the opportunity to help your plant tremendously. The ability to intervene and create/modify the environment to sustain the plant's respiration, thus allowing it to grow where others can't, is a game changer. It can, However become a stressfull game of "catching up". I've noticed the plant stopped drinking as heavily as before. Will this mark the beginning of the "turn-on-your-own-leaves" phase ? The phase, I never was patient enough to let start ?

DIARY * 31/05/2017 Heat, Heat, Heat, We're melting. Sorry, I don't have anything serious to announce. * 01/06/2017 Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday to you. Polly is now 3 months old and will receive a Royal flush. I'm also letting her outside for now. It's almost tropical here. I flush slowly, since I suppose a large part of flushing is allowing the plant to also prespire as much clean water trough its cappilaries as it can. I formed this idea pondering the meaning of the 21 days clean period, the simpler generic nutrient solutions seemed to advise. These are commonly used by hobbyists to spike and feed soil grown vegetables. It's interesting that the numbers sort of line up, If you allow yourself some monkey margins. I follow and have followed the following guideline to calculate the volume of water needed for a flush. I read it in someone's "Marijuana Bible". But can't remember whose. Why does everyone write a "Marijuana Bible's" anyway. Formula: A x B = V A = constant B = volume pot V = Flush volume Formula: A x B = V If we plug in the following values: A = 3/2 B = 14 (14L pot) Formula: A x B = V 3/2 x 14 = 21 We get 21 Liter Flush Volume as result. That sorta comes close to the volume needed for 21 Daily waterings. Coincidence ? Probably :D Interesting ? To the pendantic and loopy paranoid primate ? Absolutely ! * 02/06/2017 In the veranda, out of the veranda. In the veranda, out of the veranda. This West-European weather is so variable. Curse you rainclouds ! Curse you all ! * 03/06/2017 "Dear Polly, shepherd of all our herbs. You teached us steady nutrient feeding, And bending Buds to the extreme, We thank you, We'll try to keep our hands out of the cure jars, but We'll fail, We salute thee. " 04/06 488g Wet, big stalks dry weight coming soon as is net weight after dry and 2nd manicuring. I was aiming for a 50 gr auto. This definitely hit that. I hope to land on the good side of 75 gr dry. I have to "share" this with the other green kongsfolk at our kinship. This is enough not to end up dry after a weekend. Thank you, Dutch Passion. Greetings, Goarilla Kong. 07/06 112 gr (few stalks removed) 84 gr (buds cut from big stems) without 2nd manicure. Which I''m gonna leave up to my kins themselfs. It seems dry enough, some are turning desiccated dry while the other is little bit humid still. The smoke has lost that chlorophyll green taste already, it tastes pretty soft but still neutral. I do hope the combination I smell (Pine & Citrus) gets enforced with great flavor during cure. 08/06 I finally gotten to use my new bong, my second glass one, although the first was more bubbler-size. EHLE''s Alchemist with a wide bowl. After a smokesession or, I can perceive the Dutch Haze heritage, which I''m somewhat fed up with. Not because it''s bad. It''s just not my cup of tea and it''s what all the street dealers peddle around here. Once in a few dabs however I notice some floral aroma over the mild pine, wood and sometimes citrus flavors. I hope my jar (26 gram left) isn''t empty when this one is on point.

This was my best auto thus far. Trimmed once dryish it was about 80 grams while only being 57 cm high. It''s a good weed for active solitary labor :)
