High of 79F, Low of 70F - RH: 52% - Watered with 4ml/gal Remo Nutrient flowering combo. - pH'd to 6.7 Day 35: - Removed LST tie-downs from "EM-1" and "EM-2". - Tied down top of "EM-3b" - Temps: High - 79F, Low - 70F

Day 39: - Watered lightly with plain standing garden tap water, pH'd to 6.5 Day 40: - Outside weather was very warm. Tent temp: 75F-81F - RH: 45%-57% - Watered with 30% recommended strength Remo Nutrients Day 41: - No water Day 42: - Outside temps VERY warm! - Tent temp was 80F during lights off... shot up to 85F after 30 mins of lights on - Reduced light intensity from 70% to 50% - Opened tent, increased circulation fan speed - Watered with garden tap water, pH'd to 6.6

Day 43: - Watered with 30% recommended strength Remo Nutrients - Hooked up a/c unit, vented directly into tent via 4" duct. - Increased light intensity from 70% to 80%. - Increased exhaust fan speed from 30% to 50% to maintain negative pressure with a/c blowing into tent. Day 44: - No water - Lights on temp: 73-79F - Lights off temp: 65-73F Day 45: - Watered with 30% recommended strength Remo Nutrients Day 46: - Watered with 30% recommended strength Remo Nurtients Day 47: - No Water - Increased light intensity from 80% to 100% for approximately last 6 hrs of "lights on" Day 48: - Watered with 30% recommended strength Remo Nutrients. Increased "MagNifiCal" to 50% recommended strength due to rust spots - Unsure if rust spots are being caused by a Cal-Mag issue or possibly light burn...? Only 1 of 3 plants showing those spots, on upper and lower leaves.

Day 50: - "EM-2" brown/rust spots are worsening. Increased Remo Nutrients "MagNifiCal" during feeding. - Moved "EM-2" to center position, where light intensity is lower. - Watered with plain garden tap water today but added some "Cal-Mag Spike". Water pH'd to 6.5. Day 51: - No water - "EM-2" brown/rust spots worsening. - Added Gaia Green Bloom 2-8-4 dry amendments to plants "EM-2" and "EM-3b". Mixed 4tbsp into top of soil, watered lightly with pH 6.5 garden tap water. **IF ANYONE KNOWS WHAT'S UP WITH THE BROWN SPOTS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!** I'm treating it as either Calcium deficiency or light burn... but i'm almost certain it's not light burn, as the spots are on upper and lower portions of the plant. Day 52: - Watered with 60% recommended Remo Nutrient flowering combo. Day 53: - No water - Light defoliation to under-side of plants. Day 54: - No water Day 55: - Watered with 60% recommended dose of nutrients. - Lowered lights-on temperature from 78F to 75F. - Lowered lights-off temperature from 72F to 68F. - Increased de-humidification during lights off to try and maintain 50% RH. Without dehumidification, RH climbs to 70+% RH! - "EM-2" plant still increasing signs of nutrient deficiency. So far it doesn't seem to have affected the buds, only the leaves.

Day 55: - Flushed "EM-2" with approximately 4 gallons of pH 6.2 water. Runoff was coming out at pH 6.5 and only a slight amber colour to it. - Watered "EM-1" and "EM-3b" lightly with pH 6.2 water. Day 56: - No water Day 57: - Temperature in tent rose to 86F for about 30 mins when my A/C didn't turn on at the right time. - "EM-2" is really looking bad. Not sure if i should cut my losses and plan to cut her this weekend...?? - Watered with 60-70% recommended strength of Remo Nutrients. - I'm thinking this might be my last feeding and that i'll start a 7-10 day flush with plain, pH'd tap water. - Noticing some amber trichs on "EM-1" but not on "EM-2" or "EM-3b". - Under microscope, seeing mostly cloudy and some clear trichs. Day 58: - No real change to "EM-2"... not improving but not getting worse. - Watered "EM-1" and "EM-3b" with 60% nutrient solution. Watered "EM-2" with a 10-20% nutrient solution. Day 59: - "EM-2"'s brown spots are a little browner, a little crisper... but no new brown spots are appearing. - No water Day 60 - Watered all plants with pH 6.3 tap water - "EM-2" not improving but not getting worse.

Day 64: - Watering only with de-chlorinated tap water, pH'd to between 6.2 to 6.5. - "EM-2" is still a mess, with brown, dried, curled leaves, but luckily the buds have developed well and the issue remains only in the leaves. - Trichome production has really exploded over the past few days, as has the smell. - "EM-2" has a very berry smell to it, more so than the other two. - Lights-on temperatures: 72-75F - Lights-off temperatures: 65-69F Day 65: - No water Day 66: - Watered with tap water, pH'd to 6.5 - Light defoliation to "EM-2" to clean up brown/dead leaves Day 67: - Will probably be the last day of light for these girls. I'll be giving them 48hrs of darkness, without water, before chopping. - Temp (lights on): 75F - Temp (lights off): 62-68F - RH: 45-60% (mostly around 52-54%)

Day 69: HARVEST! - After 48 hours complete darkness, and with the soil completely dry, the time to chop was upon us! - My girl wet-trimmed "EM-2" and did a great job getting rid of all the brown leaves, which had started affecting the sugar leaves pretty badly too. She hung individual branches on coat hangers. - "EM-1" and "EM-3b" were chopped and hung as entire plants. - Removed light and the 2 circulating fans from the tent, hanging 2 plants up high, and one below. - A/C unit still connected to the tent, providing a gentle breeze coming in at the bottom. - Exhaust fan was reduced to 30%, providing just enough air flow to maintain negative pressure and provide a steady movement of air around the plants. - Temp: 65F - RH: 60-65% Day 73 (drying day 4) - "EM-2" has dried to where the buds are crispy, yet pliable. Trimmed buds from branches and put into jars, with the tops left off. - "EM-2" has come out at 89 grams and was the smaller of the 3 plants. Day 78 - Just finished trimming and putting into jars "EM-1" and "EM-3b". - Those 2 plants spent 9 days drying. - "EM-1" came in at 74g - "EM-3b" unfortunately ended up with pretty airy buds and i'd say about half the weight ended up just going into our trim bag, which we'll use for hash. The buds were very sticky with trichs but just not enough density for me to be happy with. - "EM-3b" weighed in at 54g of smoke-able buds. In total, we have 217 grams of buds curing. We have about 100 grams of trim, including larf, sugar leaves and buds that were just too airy for me to want to keep.
