October 20th, Day 1 -
germinated seeds planted, Day 1 counting from planting the seed into the coco.
I will try to be precise as possible for everyone’s sake.
I’m using a mix of nutrients.
Im also trying to run as much organics as possible.
I started by using:
7L (roughly) coco 9L air pots.
I mixed a 250ml pot of EWC (earth worm castings) and 120ml of dry Charge from Eco-thrive (insect frass).
I planted the seeds straight into the large pot and have been watering everyday with varied amounts. Started my soaking the entire coco @ 12:00pm Watered 3L: 2.5ml/L formulex, 0.5ml/L More roots. Then planted seeds. (Forgot to adjust PH. run off PH6.0 EC was 1.0 didn’t add Calmag do this next time) TNC Mycorr Max In seed hole (beneficial inoculant)

November 4th Day 16 -
Looking good IMO I was a little worried as always when your babies are growing. I’m most confident in soil as it’s so easy to just water and wait till the stuff drys out. Getting your head in coco after soil grows is like wtf!
I’m in straight 100% coco with 250ml worm casting and 120ml Frass. I’ve watered every day and they just keep growing lol
_________________________
4th November Fed 9pm: Canna Calmag 0.25ml/L, Silicon max 0.5ml/L, More roots 1ml/L, Rhizotonic 1ml/L, 2ml/L Coco A&B EC1.2 PH5.9
November 10th, Day 22
9am:
Week start Fertigated 2.5L total.
First 1.5L to wet the coco then another 1L to soak it with nice run off.
I waited a little too long between watering 3 days is too much.
Also I’ve moved the fan from blowing directly on the canopy. It was also 10% RH at the canopy 24hrs light on so that’s why leaves looking dry. I’ve changed to 20/4 will use heater on a timer during lights off.
This feed:
0.4EC cal mag, SiliconMax 0.5ml/L, More Roots 2ml/L, Grow Liquid 1ml/L, Humic acid plus 2ml/L, Growzyme 1ml/L EC0.8 PH5.9
Recalibrated ph pen. It was off 0.2> so my feeds have been a little low in PH so far. I have to calibrate every week now to be safe. I’m trying a method that I have thought about considering I’m using organic based nutrients I want to add my own brewed tea with some time tested ingredients. High P bat guano, insect frass, Earth worm castings basically a microforna poop tea.

I feel I have messed up on a few things all is not lost but still. They’re much much smaller and weaker than I was hoping for. I guess the stunting is from being overwatered in the sense that I didn’t let the media dry at a young age.
They were growing at an average rate. Not the rapid growth I expected from the last time I ran these nutrients it was insanely fast growth.
My Aim is to dial in my current setup and environment to get the best results with coco next time or I’m hitting it on the head so to speak.

Update:
‘‘Twas the night before Xmas PharmaZ was hitting a phat spliff in the garden when the Delivery man came knocking with a new Spiderfarmer sf2000.
PharmaZ and his elves knocked up a fabulous drain to waste table out of pieces of wood from the far away mystical land of B&Q...
We chucked it all in the tent with a heat mat under the trays, and I have a few days to dial it all in. Merry Xmas to all
(some better images coming waiting for the dark period to experiment with macro lenses, tips and settings welcome)

Happy New Year!!
WishIng everyone a great 2020!!
The Garden is a lovely place to be at the moment, I could take all my girls down today as we are looking at over 80% Cloudy Trichs across the room.
But I will wait another few days to try and use up as much nutrients as possible, run off was a target EC0.4 so I would be happy to give one more flush with Humic Acid Plus and Big Fruits.
So the Purple Lemonade Is definitely one of the most popular Fast Buds strains of 2019-2020 and we can clearly see why!! It’s sooo purple.
I’ve said it once and I will say it again, I know this strain has some good roots the smell is intoxicating, Minty and Berry is only how I can describe it then a hint of pine lingering between the two smells.
That’s about it for this Girl, there are nearly 100 other PL diaries going at the moment here so it’s a nice field of purple weed early 2020 for everyone. Ok be back with Harvest info and pics when she’s ready✌️
__________________________________________
December 30th Day 70:
Hit all the lady’s with a good dose of water containing clean fruits. Then 12 hours later again a dose of clean fruits 2ml/L, 2ml/L Humic Acid.
__________________________________________
January 2nd Day 73, 11pm:
1ml/L Humic Acid, 1ml/L Big Fruits
**APPEARANCE**
You really have to see with your own eyes. How amazing is this strain! She carries the Purple/black apperance so well from start of flower then the extreme frost production at the end!
**AROMA**
Fruity notes throughout the grow room when she is thriving. She really will stand out in your room against other green plants, a real eye catcher. Then after harvest dried and finally the cure, opening a jar gives an intense berry aroma like black currents. I say it smells like Ribena if anyone knows this drink. A real wonderful dried sample!
**FLAVOUR**
A serious contender for one of the most flavoursome smokes I’ve had recently. Definitely topshelf in flavour! She has a peppermint taste on Inhale but again strongest taste of BERRY!
**EFFECT**
Not as strong as the other girls beside her, a mellow smoke which can be enjoyed more for flavour. She was ready when picked and has had a nice cure. It’s nice to have something that doesn’t spin your head after a few joints. Relaxing high!
I am running a couple of these on my next grow. Can't wait to see that change in color yours are going through right now. Great work! Good luck finishing up flower.
@Wicked_Stix, Hey, thanks for stopping in I will be following your run. It’s a favourite strain of mine. I grew one last year when they were testers, Smell/taste is very similar to strawberry cough if you’ve tried that?
@BigDaddyK, Just attached 2 pictures of the SF1000 and SF2000 info.
The SF2K has nearly 3x the amount of white chips, and over 3x red chips 😂
I went with the 2K after many hours of pondering and measuring.🙏🏻
@BigDaddyK, Was honestly thinking the same for a bit , but twice as much to go wrong lol
I have a 160x80x180 so the tent is narrow already and I only use 1m of the length so I have an area to stand in, Think there on sale on Spiderfarmer website £217 for a SF2000 happy with that.
I’m going to scout your grows before I buy, cheers✌️
ha thanks for letting grow one of these growmie, still one of my faves your pots are probably well big for these , my dream is like 40 of these in 1.5 L pots in a 1.2x1.2 tent - strength in numbers ! good luck man , it's gonna be a quick one !
@CRiSPrGrow, I will post another pic soon, it’s coming along. Just seems like every time I LST purple strains they don’t like it, try to resist. Essentially she’s like “No fucking way am I growing side branches because you want me too”
@PharmaZ, i'm like you wanting to see how it does under LST actually, how's it coming ? when i read the description that said "takes well to LST" i was like damn it !
@PharmaZ, thanks pal, hope you had a good one aswell. Ive had to put things on hiatus for a while but will be back at it again soon. That new light looks likes its made itself at home!
@MrHightimes, A great choice fast producer but as with most purple strains she’s not likely to have very dense buds.
This girls flowers looked pretty compact but when she dried she was quite airy. Beautiful complex flavors though, not just good looking she tastes wonderful too!
Good luck and enjoy your grow✌️
Thank you very much for sharing an new diarie.
You Spray too much with plain water. during vegitative phase (especially when the plants are young, or have nothing or less on roots, if it even better and easyer for the plants to bring the nuts and aids, directly on the loeaf, so the plants must not transformate this over the little or less rots, and can better grow) Make alsobetter you own tea from Growzyme, More Roots, Humic Acid and additionally 0,5ml of Organic Grow Liquid, and spray it 2 times each day on the plants (make sure after sprying no drops on the plant and light is of or reduced so the plants) can´t dry without leafburning. After 4 -5 Days (8-10 Sprayed times) you plants will look very better at the momtent (they lokk a little bit to dry soil and air) After this 4-5 Days you will get big trees from your little plants ;)
She's beautiful. I'd be happy of mine turns out half this good looking.
I look forward to seeing the harvest and sticking around for a smome relort amd further grows. Cheers, stay safe.
