Well haven't done much besides tapering her off from humidity dome to 60-65 %RH in the grow tent, watering her twice from seed, may have poured water in to hard and disturbed the roots Watered day 6/7 and day 10/11 with a solo cup of water ph to 6.5 Watered on the 10/13 plain ph tap water around 6.5 ph Top dressed once with some microbes at the start of the week

She should start picking up the pace, been letting her dry out completely between waterings Lowering ph down To 6.0 to see what happens Top growth looks like it is showing ph problems at the roots. Nothing but water and only two Solo cups per watering untill dry Next going up to 3 Solo cups per watering

Heading into week 4 strong l.. plain ph water the entire time, with larger amounts of water each time Currently saturating the top enough to dampen coco coir without run off Thin light green new growth slightly studying possible beginning of calcium deficiency possibly due to R/O water I will be adding 1/8 per gallon of cal mag from npk raw untill cleared up

Went away on the weekend, missed a few photos from then and during this week but she sure looks different Plain watering most the time 1/4 strength nutes (biostimulants) to fix up slight calcium deficiency She's getting bushy, thin stems tho could be from lack of light in veg, Switching her to bloom tent this week and starting another one shortly

Missed a bunch of photos due to late nights harvesting Got a blue lab soil ph pen and found out coco ph was a little low so increased ph slightly Also added 5 tbsp of dolomite lime in with my top dressing of 50/50 ratio Gaia Green ammendments Ph went back in check the next day, water uptake accelerated and growth picking up Lots of stretching from the veg tent, it was a bit crowded so she had to work for some light also didn't have lights on full because other plants were closer to it None the less pre flowers are showing so she's starting to flower ! Checked soil ph ; 48 hours ago 6.7 24 hours ago 6.4 ( ph lowers as soil dries out) We are in a good spot as long as tonight it's still above 6 as it will be at its driest point Media is looking good, she's drinking up a lot now and starting to stack, had some early on stretching but makes for a wider canopy Soil rating stripes below 6.0 will be feeding 6.6 ph next week

Well the media is in a decent range, she's drinking fast and stretching like crazy Put the trellis net in today (06/25/19) and trained her better Reason for stretching was too much red light, switched on veg and bloom for the next stage of this grow (cheap 100w grow lights ) and have my main light (250w) set on half

Well she's a hungry plant, didn't get to the topdressing in time and she started to fade Media ph is on point after a little dolomite lime with the last top dressing a few weeks ago Not sure if maybe I need to add more top dressing but hopefully she greens up more and fills in better

She's fading hard and having some leaf margins burning or purpling looks lore like purpling but sticking up not flat Top dressed at the beginning of the week hoping to see some recovery Gave her a top dressing not seeing any kind of recovery, still fading so far her a healthy dose of nutrients... Not sure what's going on with this one but she's looking rough

She isn't growing the way I wanted to, she got defficent somewhere and I couldn't keep up with top dressings in time Maybe next run I won't let the media dry out so much inbetween waterings Thinking that's one of the problems is bone dry pots She was completely wilted at one point, recovery over night after a water but not good for her as a lot of leaves died that night 😂 She's comming back, gave her some flower nutes, cyco base and npk raw bio stimulants Flushing out any buildup and giving her exactly what she needs Good recovery buds comming back to life UPDATE She's loving the new feedings

After switching the nutrient regiment she snapped out of her deficiencies and quickly budded up She smells so good like the stuff your grandpa use to smoke Straight OG and Fruity Supper happy with the way the buds are forming now can't wait to try this strain again I have more information about feeding Regiment on my AOC grow journals

She begins flush this week, simply feeding her microbes and molasses ph to 6.0 Feeding her my new regiment turned her around and put some stank on her Gaia Green just wasn't doing the trick, works well for early veg but flower is more demanding Been flushing her with 25% stre gth nutes, fluvic acid, cane molasses, yucca, and microbes 3 waterings in, from now till harvest she just gets plain ph water Purple started showing on day 46 flower along with the odd amber trichomes Now at the end of week 7 and she's drying up in just over a day now which is a good sign to health roots. giving her plain R/O water from now till harvest Rubbed the stem of her earlier and holy shit it smelled like strawberry smoothie candy all in one so decided to pop another seed today

2 Weeks into Flush every watering has been JUST 50/50 tap and R/O Water Got a new grow light for the 4x2 thanks to Mars hydro for letting me test this light we will have another smoothie auto run with the light shortly! Packaged very well, sleek look just wish the sponsored me with he ts250 instead of the TS150 but its looks good for one plant! May have to put the venesun boosters back in there but no more 4ft t5 LEDthat thing gets really hot UPDATED CONDITIONS: not sure how it got so far off... thinking from scrolling on my phone and tapping them by accident :P She has fully matured and just so happened to do so on my birthday! quite a sweet ride with this smoothie auto, growing healthy and steadily. I have another one planted already because its just too good to pass up, wanting to try the cream cookies next from fastbuds Yeild to be updated shortly wet weight just over a lb so hoping to get a QP outta this plant
