Lemon Cherry Cookies [Automatic]

xMuuy She's looking healthy and starting to grow faster day by day. Watering her every few days as needed, having no special schedule. Sprayed neem oil for the first time on all of the plants in the growbox today as a precautionary measure.

xMuuy Mixed in a tiny amount of CalMag into every watering due to our osmosis system.

xMuuy Started LST in week 3 by bending her to one side and tethering her to the pot with some wire. Continued with LST by fixing the other branches as well to try to form the canopy as wide as possible for maximum harvest. Removed some leaves that would get in the way.

xMuuy Early phase of pre-flowering starting soon, so starting to give her more nutrients. Aditionally increasing the amount of Calmag in every watering. Since she is growing faster day by day we're inspecting her daily, tying down stems and removing some foliage that would be in the way.

xMuuy Repotted her from the 4,4L pot into a much larger, 20L pot using only the pre-fertilized growmix from Floragard. Adjusted the amount of nutrients since she's in early flowering phase right now. Continuing LST as she develops new branches and therefore attempting to extend her over the whole pot width and beyond, trying to get the maximum amount of mainbuds. Also bought a dehumidifier (Comfee MDDN-10DEN7) since theres too high humidity for her in flowering phase; especially because there is low airflow and no window in that tiny room (we peaked at 70-80% humidity at night, at ~20°C, before!). We set it up to be in 60% humidity right now.

xMuuy She's developing a really beautiful purple touch on the leaves that are growing directly below the bud. You can also already observe light frosting forming on those leaves. Removing some foliage almost deaily to ensure the best light conditions for all buds. Planning to reduce the humidity starting next week to prevent bud rot. Extremely happy how she's growing currently. Definitly in stretching phase right now, so trying to stabilize the plant-light-distance to around 30cm to guarantee she gets ~1000 PPFD from the light.

xMuuy Reduced the humidity setting from around 60% to ~55%. Adjusted the amount of nutrients as well; still including CalMag. Defoliating every few days, as needed. She's growing as expected and looks very healthy! Definitly developing frosty leaves, so I took a look at the trichomes of the most developed bud under our mikroskopic lense. Looks fantastic in my opinion, I especially love the cherry-red bits that you can, sadly, rarely see.

xMuuy Reduced the humidity further, set it to ~40% right now, but since we're in a severe heat-wave in germany right now (we are peaking at 30°C indoors and ~33°C in our "growroom") our dehumidifier is working overtime. Defoliating every few days, leaving us with sticky fingers and scissors. Buds are developing fine and growing very quickly in size. Leaves are getting more and more frosty, even removed some when defoliating and took a look at the trichomes under our mikroskopic lense. Very beautiful and dense trichome-structure; especially on the buds. The red-purple coloured parts of the buds, mentioned last week, are developing nicely and much quicker than expected. Even spotted some milky trichomes on the headbud here and there.

xMuuy Another week went by so fast! Her buds are developing nicely, becoming more colorful and much thicker. After each defoliation we are discovering more and more buds that were growing beneath the leaves. The numerous trichomes turn into milky, little bubbleheads. I really adore the look of her buds this close; the colors, as well as the overall look is just stunning! Topdressed her with worm castings (Plagron.-Mega Worm) for supplementary nutrients. Additionally watering with pure water to balance out the nutrient level within the plant. Also added some SF nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) to resolve our issue with fungus gnats.

xMuuy Our beauty is looking good, isn't she? Her buds are thickening and the trichomes getting more of that gorgeous purple color. Some are already cloudy, few (most of them are damaged, probably due to looking at them under our mikroskopic lense too closely) turned amber. Harvest is set to be at week 8 in flower, so it's 2 weeks from now on, but we'll see how she develops by then. Smell-wise it's pretty bareable right now; we feared that our whole apartment would smell like a huge coffeeshop in amsterdam, but by keeping the door to our "growroom" closed you can hardly smell anything. It's only when touching some frosty leaves while defoliating that you get some of the strain-specific scents, mostly consisting of citrusy aroma with earthy undertones. Temperature is stable right now; the severe heat wave should be gone for the next weeks and by meagerly opening the door we can adjust the temperatures quite good. Humidity is also pretty solid thanks to our dehumidifier.

xMuuy Take a look at this beautiful purple beast! Really thick and numerous buds appeared after we defoliated her yesterday. Now you can really tell how well the LST with those plastic stretchers worked by just looking at the large, dense buds, which are growing across the whole planter. Included nutrients less often this week, as she is in late flower now, therefore some top leaves are starting to get brown spots. Also taking more time between waterings to dry her out a bit further preparing for harvest. More and more trichomes are getting that wonderful purple hue; as well as the heads turning amber with time. Right after handling her, as by giving her a much needed haircut like yesterday or doing some basic maintenance, she's releasing some strong scent, mainly consisting of citrus and spicy aroma. But as soon as she's left alone the smell is almost completely gone. Temperature is stable, but humidity is increasing in the last few days as it's raining quite often. So thankful to have the dehumidifier right now as there would be no other way to get the moisture out of our little "growroom".

xMuuy Such a stunning little beauty! She's almost ready for harvest, just waiting for a few more trichome heads to turn amber; aiming for a ~20%'ish rate. Buds are looking massive and dense and are accompanied by some pretty frosty leaves. The smell has developed into a rather tart and herbal aroma with most of the citrussy scents gone by now. So excited! Can't wait to chop her up and taste these fascinating terps :D Hopefully she's gonna be all ready in a week! Decreased the amount of nutrients we're giving her a bit further by fertilizing only once this week with overall fewer nutrients.
