9/2
-Cream Cookies Trichomes at 90% Clear, 10% Cloudy, 0% Amber. Im a lover of a good heavy indica and usually allow the plant to mature until it reaches 0% Clear, 90% Cloudy, 10% Amber.
-Cheese is towering some main cola sites with thick flower development. Going to develop into massive colas. (Cheese has historically taken 2 weeks longer than other plants to mature and is around 2 weeks behind cream cookies. There is still a possibility she explodes with flowering growth in the coming week.)
-Lowering dose of nutrients to 12 mL/gal until harvest.
9/3
-Cream Cookies is beginning to change color and dump its fan leaves. Going to allow the plant to do its thing. Don't want to cut the leaves early as the plant is most likely using those fan leaves as a source for mobile nutrients for the rest of the plant. Going to let nature keep its "nutrient batteries" if you will. The plant built up its healthy leaves only to use them later when it doesn't need them anymore. I love nature and the cycle of plant life. Just mesmerizing.
9/4
-Rotated the plants so I could get a better vantage point for cheese and holy shit. Cheese has grown so thick that a major major defoliation was needed just to expose slightly under the canopy to some light. The plant is also growing absolutely huge colas. HUGE. like 8-10 inch colas with flowering buds thickly covering the stem. On these colas you can't even see stem. Im so excited what a pleasant surprise
-Cream cookies is beginning to change colors indicating its entering the final stages of flower and is on par to be harvested right at the beginning of week 13.
9/6
-Rigorous defoliation done on both Cheese and Cream Cookies.
-Beatiful aromas are dominating my dwelling. Gotta love the natural dankness smell. Ahh home sweet home. Anyway both plants are developing extremely well.
-Cheese is towering and developing later kind of, weird growth pattern but if it produces dank thick colas ill be very happy. Cheese is definitely going to stay flowering longer than her sister cream cookies who I'm going to flush next week and harvest in 7 days! Very excited.
-Cream Cookies buds are developing very nicely. Accidentaly forgot to raise the lamp 2 inches and as a result the plant got a little stressed and one of the buds got a little light burn on its baby fan leaves but no actual bud damage. Going to leave the leaves on until they begin to become an issue.
Found a small spider web in the corner of my grow room. Should I pull it down or leave it up? I don't have a pest problem at all and this spider just seems to have already been in my place. Extra pest protection im thinking. Can anybody think of downsides to leaving it up?
If you are sure it is a spider then it wont hurt anything to leave it in there. Natural predators are the best pest control you can get. He wont hurt anything.
@Cannibalgardens, thank you! The genetics are really strong but she's a little sensitive to overwatering. Best of luck on your grow! Ill try and follow along to see if I can pick up some tips and/or tricks!
Hey there!
Thanks so much for growing our genetics =)
Good luck with your Cream Cookies, if you need any assistance, just let us know! ππΌ
Happy Growing ππ±
@Cannibalgardens, Im really liking the advanced nutrients Sensi line. Don't trust the pH perfect technology. Ive only had 1 batch of nutrient solution come out with a pH of >5.8. Ive been using RO water from the closest department store. The nutrients themselves though are amazing. My babies are flourishing.
@Wildotter, Ive always found it extremely interesting how plants get "used to" and grow to expect a routine. Ive found there is no wrong way of watering plants, it just all comes down to what the plants are used to! Blows my mind how advanced plants are. Good luck on your grow!
Hi, I'm not telling you what to do but just be careful of your ph, it is 5.6 and if you dip below 5.5 or less you could run into problems. Looking good otherwise ππππ
@OhcanaDAbiz, Good to know! Seems that Growdiaries really doesn't like significant digits, but the true solution pH is 5.71. Whats a good target pH for hydro? I've been varying the pH every feed in the range of 5.6-6.0.
As always any advice and constructive criticism is greatly appreciated and I will always take feedback. Cant learn from the community if you don't listen!
