ok Every thing is Amazing. i have total 8 plants include (1 Gorilla breath that has its own diary) 4 Slurricanes and 3 clones i marked them in a picture for you.
unfortunately i dont have pictures from weeks before but here is what i've done:
i topped the girls at week 3 - then did some LST and HST at week 5 with help of a net and did a little defoliation at week 6 (the lower branches) and did some cover cropping at week 3 for some more microbes :D
did total of 2 transplants and add some Mykos + Azos to bottom of the roots in every transplants
ill post pictures from now on weekly
happy growing

ok ok its 4:20 here as i'm writing this :D and ofcourse a joint on my lips too!
it was a very busy week , in my style of growing i do pruning only 2 times . 1 at middle of week 2 of flowering in 2 parts :
first i remove big fan leaves and only leaves then let them rest for 1 day then the second part of pruning will get done that is removing branches based on these conditions:
1-if the branch is very low and never can make it to the top ,
2- if branch is in shade even after pruning fan leaves ,
3- if there are too many branches at the small space then non of them will get resources so if there is no space for branch then , they must get remove.
so here is what i've done this week :
day 1 :
as you can see there is a jungle about :D . no light or air penetration and so many weak and low branches that will only eat the precious energy and produce nothing at the end.
day 3:
i removed the big fan leaves that was blocking the light in the first step of pruning but still too many branches are there and there is no space for all of them just for stronger ones. i let them rest tomorrow and just feed them.
day 5 :
girls recovered and ready to strip :D this day i removed the exceed and weak branches as you can see in the pictures to transfer energy to the main and strong branches.
day 6 :
just feeding and let them rest to recover.
day 7:
the results are soo good as you can see the buds boosted very fast as i can see the difference even now i wont cause any more stresses and let them do their job until week 6 of flowering that will do the second wave of pruning.
feeding :
last week for bud ignitor - added top-max and b-52 to the feeding program

week intel:
im felling in love with them everything is good . this week was time of second net layer , the first layer was for spreading the branches and doing LST now the second layer is for supporting branches for later weeks when the buds gain weight and gets heavy the net will hold branch stand up without benting.
stresses:
im just gonna cause a little E.C stress to raise the terpens. i found their max tolerance is 1.9 E.C so im not gonna reach or get close to that amount again and beside this wont cause any more streses untill week 6 that will do second pruning and we are done with trainings then.
feeding:
as always im feeding plants 3 times per week with nutrients , no plain water at all, just with nutrients with adjusted p.h at this order :
day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) and karbo about 950 ppm - 1.8 e.c to cause a little e.c stress.
day 3 : i feed them low dose for start of Green House Feeding Booster around 267 ppm - 0.6 e.c alone cuz this bad boy is very strong.
day 5 : i feed them with medium dose of Top-Max around 160 ppm - 0.3 e.c to let them recover the stresses and eat the previous nutrients untill next feed at next week
and the next 2 days will rest and eat :D
just remember never feed them plain water besides the first week of germination always feed water with nutrients to feed them right p.h every time and to avoid excess water problems, and let them eat the previous meal for 24 hours and dry the soil, so at total only feeding nutrients 3 times a week other days let them dry and rest

week intel:
everything is perfect!
stresses :
just a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week
feeding:
i feed them 3 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 818 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress.
day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 382 ppm - 0.7 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused.
day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 250 ppm - 0.5 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week.
guide of the week :
know your plant tolerance limit of E.C stress once you saw the very very little yellowing on tips of leaves , that's the sign to don't go further , never reach that limit if you want a high quality buds, in my case tolerance is 1.8 and i'll reach to that level only once a week to cause precision stress , love your plants and have a happy growing!

week intel:
its time for second pruning they grew up too fast and need second pruning as below :
first i remove big fan leaves and only leaves then let them rest for 1 day then the second part of pruning will get done that is removing branches based on these conditions:
1-if the branch is very low and never can make it to the top ,
2- if branch is in shade even after pruning fan leaves ,
3- if there are too many branches at the small space then non of them will get resources so if there is no space for branch then , they must get remove.
everything is perfect!
stresses :
pruning big fan leaves and lower branches + a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week
feeding:
i feed them 3 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 884 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress.
day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 325 ppm - 0.6 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused.
day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 213 ppm - 0.4 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week.
guide of the week :
no more stresses from now on till the end and from next week i'll reduce the amount of nitrogen and calcium to below half to the end.

week intel:
we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week
i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster
short story version: more K & P - less N
stresses :
a little E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 twice a week from this week
feeding:
i feed them 3 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 822 ppm - 1.6 e.c to cause a little stress.
day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 525 ppm - 1 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused.
day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again
guide of the week :
from this week we can cause more E.C stresses.
e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line.

week intel:
every thing is amazing girls are ripening , we can now cause more e.c stress than before because:
1-plants are very mature now and can handle stress
2- at this week its the only stress that is helpful for increasing plant resins
stresses :
E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 3 times a week
feeding:
i replaced B-52 with Bloom Base Nutrient
i feed them 3 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress.
day 3 : i feed them high dose of Top-Max + Bloom Base Nutrient around 877 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause stress .
day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again
guide of the week :
last weeks are time of ripening , and the only helpful stress is e.c stress at this moment
week intel:
we getting close to end of ripening , this week i raised drought , Nitrogen and E.C stress by feeding them 2 times per week and raised e.c to 3 to cause real stress that will help increase terpenes production
stresses :
Nitrogen deficiency Stress by removing the fertilizers that has N in them
Drought stress via removing one meal in week
high E.C stress around 1.7 and the other feeding day 3.0 , 2 times a week
feeding:
no more Nitrogen
i feed them 2 times this week with this order :
day 1 : i feed them high with Bio-Bizz Top-Max + Feeding Booster about 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a medium e.c stress.
day 3 : no more feeding this day
day 5 : i feed them very high dose of Bio-Bizz Top-Max + Feeding Booster around 1500 ppm - 3 e.c to cause high e.c stress
guide of the week :
be patient in the last weeks, never hurry for harvest because its the time of ripening in last 2 weeks you should let plants to do their work
last weeks of ripening is the time to break the limits we should cause 3 stresses as i said above Nitrogen stress , Drought Stress , E.C Stress
week intel:
its time to harvest some of plants the ones that is mature enough. indica dominant plants will done first always so we should harvest them first
because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days
stresses :
flushing
Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week
feeding:
day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph
day 3 : no more feeding from now on
day 5 : no more feeding from now on
guide of the week :
i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave.
indica dominant plants will get done 1 or 2 weeks sooner than sativa dominant plants that will often takes more than 8 weeks so be aware to harvest them sooner.
my dry and cure style is this:
3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month.
im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

buds are one of the hardest as fucking rocks type of buds! very dense , compact , sticky , smelly , amazing at every aspect
growing stage was 56 days and flowering stage was 75 days total (harvested tops at day 64th)
the total weight of dry buds was : (plant #1 & #3 top buds 56 G + lower buds 22 G ) 78 G + (plant #2 top buds 47 G + lower buds 18 G ) 55 G + (plant #4 top buds 120 G + lower buds 67 G ) 187 G = 367 G
