This is my first grow ever,hadn't even grew a simple bean on cotton before lol. I directly put seeds into soil on 19th,they sprouted on 22th and put them under 400W MH light on 23th. The distance between light and girls is 55cm. I live in a very dry area where the humidity was only %28 for first 3 days and the temperature while lights are on reached 36 degree celsius !!! Got worried about babies at first but they looked quite healthy.I bought a humidifier and now the humidity while lights on is %40 and I'm happy about it because I know that I can't reach more than this.When lights are off,humidity varies between 43-50. As the weather gets colder outside,I think I'm gonna be able to control the heat. No nutritients yet,I'm gonna follow Tang's easy auto feeding schedule + voodo juice. The babies got watered once after they have been put under the light and the quantity was only 1.5 lt per pot.The soil is still humid and I don't want to water them until the soil feels dry enough. I got 2 oscillating fans(one directly aiming at reflector and the other one aiming between light and pots) and an exhaust fan. Anyway,let's see how it goes on. Thanks for any advice and comment. Btw,I got a Youtube channel where I upload my deep house mixes,just search for 909 Lounge.If any of you love that kind of music,they could check it and give some reviews maybe,lol,sorry for out of topic info :D

Just watered with some extra CalMag because of little light green spots like that Spray feature on Paint.It's good that there are some helping hands around,special thanks to farmerbrett, Tryhard and everyone so far.Much appreciated 👊 Babies are growing so fast and healthy,LST'd Blackberry and Girl Scout this week. Btw,I see pistils right now.They started to show themselves few days ago,probably 18th or 19th.

fast&furious.Just watered them,3rd time from beginning.BB was the smallest one 2 weeks ago,it surprises me and looks great.GG seems slowed down a bit,GSC is doing well.Gonna switch to flowering this weekend.But I got the question, day period for my plants is from 11PM-5PM and I'm thinking about changing it to 8PM-2PM.Briefly,would changing it affect them negatively?

Little coconut tops,GSC looks simply amazing! Few hours after lights turned on,I'm shocked when I opened the tent.Upper part leaves look upwards.I first thought it was heat stress and moved up the light a bit.But there hadn't been any signs before and leaves still look very healthy.Then I googled it and all I found was people saying this is a sign of happiness for plants.Any thoughts about this? By the way,air circulation in the tent is pretty good.I make that hand test frequently and I can put my hands on top of the plants pretty easily for 2 minutes,no heat,just a nice cool wind hitting it.

They got really weak smell,can't be noticed if you are not in the grow room.But the appearance of GSC is simply amazing,BB's too,black leaves started to show themselves. Watered yesterday with 2lt of water and nutes.Gorilla grows slower but looks like she is going to be huge one,added extra CalMag to her water.I'm trying to keep humidity level at 35-45 and temperatures are changing in my favor.23-24 lights on,16-17 lights off. Blackberry = 54cm Gorilla = 48cm Girl Scout Cookies = 46cm

Weak smell,nice view of sugar on the leaves.BB keep growing vertically,she is 58cm at the moment. As it rains more frequent in these days,I can keep the humidity between 38-46. Bottom leaves are dying,should I cut them down or just let it drop by itself?

%20-30 of the pistils of Girl Scout Cookies turned brown.Fed her yesterday,I think it was her last feeding,I'm gonna start flushing her for ~10 days.Harvest is near,in 2 weeks I guess.Has some smell but not too hard. Gorilla keeps growing vertically,she is 56cm (was 48 last week) . Interestingly,she is a sativa dominant phenotype and I think that's why she takes much longer to mature.But she looks well,pistils are much thicker than other two,looks like she will have massive buds. BB is not rushing but growing well.Pistils are still going straight up. GG = 56cm BB = 58cm GSC = 49cm

Today,I found that half of Blackberry's pistils are brown,trics are %50 milky.I'm gonna start flushing BB from next feed,aiming to harvest at some amber trics. GSC has also %50 of pistils brown and trics %50-60 milky Gorilla keeps growing well.Thicker buds,less sugar but it will be a monster! While Girl Scout Cookies has a noticeable earthy smell,Blackberry smells like fucking berries! I didn't think it would spread its unique flavour before putting it into jars. Gorilla was the stinkiest one in veg stage but now,it has a very weak smell.Looks like it has more weeks to get ready. And the question of the week; should I cut off those big,yellow leaves that looks almost dead of Gorilla? Would it make any difference ? Thank you.

Since GSC left the tent,BB and GG are getting the light better.BB's trichomes are milky and looks quite ready to harvest.Gorilla is doing well,I cut off dead yellow fan leaves.She has huge buds,it is jjust a bit early to show themselves clearly.

The smell and taste is hardly berries.It's more like herbs. Definitely a night time smoke.You'll feel every single muscle loose,relax,chill in a deep manner.Perfect for sleeping problems.

It was the fastest one in vegging,got mass and was very bushy.Then in flowering,it slowed down.It was still not a matured plant when I harvested gsc and blackberry.It took 16 weeks.And I never cut off at amber,trics were still %70 milky,the rest was crystal.Last 2 weeks,I saw aphids underneath some leaves.I stopped feeding at week 11,all fan leaves died right after second flush,plant used all the nutrients left in the leaves. Thanks to anyone who followed,commented,liked and viewed my first ever diary.I'm sure the second project will be better,as I got priceless tips,experience and saw how a cannabis plant grows basically. 🙏
