Leonardo_DaGrower Week 1 was a success. I had AI create a 20 week nutrient schedule with the nutrients I had available. I diluted the first dosage 50% because of Fox Farm’s infamous hot soil.

Leonardo_DaGrower Growth was at a great pace this week. One of them, I would say, has advanced growth for only two weeks old. There is a hint of yellowing on the last day of week 2. So, I hit her with a good dose of nutrients. To be continued….

Leonardo_DaGrower Heavy LST all week long. She is responding much better than her previous grow. I decided not to top. I accidentally added Bud Candy instead of B52. But on second feeding for the week I gave her B52.

Leonardo_DaGrower Growth has slowed this week because of heat issue (AC needs repair). I continue with aggressive LST.

Leonardo_DaGrower My AC is still broke and the plants are angry. It’s too hot most the time. Hopefully fixed soon. A lot of LST this week, but I’m done now. I’ll manipulate it into the screen for her last week of veg.

Leonardo_DaGrower Received delivery of my new Spider Farmer SE5000 and installed the last couple days of veg. I continue with heat issues with broken central AC in Las Vegas, Nevada. 🤪 Light is set to 75% power.

Leonardo_DaGrower Cleaned up the bottom, slightly. With last weeks heat issue fixed, stretching has resumed at a normal pace. First plant to stretch has much larger nodes. The other plant has a spiral node. I give low ppm feedings every two days. I never do an RO only day.

Leonardo_DaGrower Light increased to 85% Her final form is complete. One plant is very dense and bushy, and the other is lanky. She is growing exactly on pace with my previous Green Crack grow. This will make it easy for control of nutrients and flush.

Leonardo_DaGrower Light at 100% intensity. Nutrients started at 900 ppm beginning of the week and 400 ppm at the end of the week. I deleted Sensizym, Rhino Skin, and Carboload on the last feed. Pistils changing from pointy white to curly brown this week. Bulking is too heavy for the lanky plant so I had to get creative with some string to keep it from flopping over. I try to take the same picture of the same buds every week so I and others can gauge the growth. I try not to flood it with pictures of every Bud from every angle. I hate when I’m trying to follow someone’s grow and they have forty pictures of the same thing.

Leonardo_DaGrower Major catastrophe this week. I might have destroyed the terpenes. I left for the weekend and disastrous conditions occurred. Temps climbed as high as 97 degrees and humidity in the teens. I walked in the door and the smell was intense. Lowered the lights to 70% and hit her with R/O water in the pot and in the spray bottle. She perked up like nothing happened, but I know I lost a lot of terps. Over the next couple days I’ll gradually increase the lights back to 100%. End of the week and she is entering her death cycle. Two weeks max until harvest.

Leonardo_DaGrower First feeding of the week was a light 300ppm and the rest RO. Death week two is going well. She is eating up what is left over in the leaves giving me confidence of a good flush. Last grow she was bright green on harvest and incredibly hard to smoke without a long cure. I can’t be fooled by amber trichomes, because of last weeks heat problem. The leaves are full of amber but I’m still seeing some clear. Last week countdown right on cue. Lights reduced to 90% on the last day.
