Phils first Grow

Philippovic Repotted into 1-liter pots, and started fertilizing.

Philippovic The ladies are growing just fine with the heating mat, so far everything is unremarkable.

Philippovic repotted in a 12-liter pot, there should be about 9 liters of soil in it it was fertilized twice with EM Aktiv. painkiller 3 is very behind but has been since "birth"...

Philippovic The plants were topped, and by the end of the week, there was a net added.

Philippovic I think we're on a good path, I'm grateful for any tips. The setup has been expanded with two solar panels. This way, 90% of the power is covered by the panels. 10% is drawn from the grid at night for ventilation.

Philippovic The ladies are developing great, fully in stretch, let's see when they show that they are really ladies. Fertilizing is done according to the BioBizz schedule. Sf nematodes were added yesterday against the fungus gnats, and in the coming days, each plant will also get a bag of predatory mites.

Philippovic The buds are forming nicely, I'm really curious to see what will be hanging in a few weeks. Yesterday, all the plants just got water since the leaf tips were slightly yellow. Starting tomorrow, I'll go back to the normal feeding according to the BioBizz schedule. Is it normal for the roots to come up to the surface of the pot? Since the nematodes and predatory mites have been in the tent, I've only seen the occasional fungus gnat. I will definitely keep this up for future grows. Painkiller 1 and 2 are in flowering, number 3 is not yet, but it has caught up nicely in height. 07/06: We're now at the end of flowering week 3 and Painkiller 3 still has no signs of buds, this will be interesting at harvest time... 07/08: Painkiller 3 is still stretching a lot and is now the tallest plant in the tent, bud sites are finally starting to show.

Philippovic Panikiller 3 is finally in the flowering stage, the light is raised to the maximum, let's hope the ladies don't get any taller. Nutrients according to BioBizz schedule, light at 80%, exhaust at 80%, fan on full blast. The ladies showed clear signs of light stress, so the light was dimmed to 80%. 11.07 The plants are all developing very differently, but they're doing great.

Philippovic Everything is developing very well, I just found 3 pollen sacs today and removed them right away. I hope no more show up, otherwise the lady has to move out. 07/17 Six more bananas were discovered and removed. Strangely, only on the upper buds. I hope there won't be any more, but so far the problem is being kept in check. Otherwise, the plants are responding very well to the increase in nutrients according to the schedule.

Philippovic Actually, there's not much to report, the bananas haven't developed further and the buds are getting nice and fat and juicy 😍 Today I tried to get some trichomes in front of the lens, which works pretty well if you just hold the magnifying glass in front of the phone camera 👍🏼 07/26 Painkiller 3 is slowly becoming quite a sizable plant, it definitely needs another 2 weeks, but unfortunately, I have to harvest them all at the same time since the tent is needed for drying... Really a shame.

Philippovic Everything is going well, but I have an average humidity of 70%, which is slowly claiming its first victims… You might think that the three plants are of different genetics because they are so extremely different. Even though all three are Painkiller XL, they are growing extremely differently; one is slowly turning purple, the other is very tall, and one, as you can see, doesn't tolerate much light, so the top is already slightly bleached. Very interesting, the three different phenos. 04.08 5 more headbuds from Painkiller 1 have fallen victim to mold 😢 On the bright side, number 2 is developing beautifully. 05.08 By now, 8 headbuds have fallen victim to mold… the remaining headbuds from Painkiller 1 and 2 were harvested out of necessity. Hopefully, the weather will finally improve so that the humidity drops. A radical defoliation was done to further lower the humidity.

Philippovic Today we harvested since the weather is unfortunately supposed to stay rainy. 3 more days would have done the plants good, but oh well :) it'll be fine! I'm definitely satisfied with the first run, let's see what comes out in the end :)
