Lemon Haze Redux

2nd year trying to grow my stuff. Tried Lemon Haze last year so we're gonna give it another try. With the earlier start this year, I'm hoping to get a bigger crop. Hoping to grow enough to make a few batches of canna-butter for my wife's special banana cake or some infused olive oil when we have pizza night with some close friends. Here we go Jo.

Stepped up the pot size for the trio. Good veg starting and I'm reminding myself not to water too much. Enjoying Jo's feedback and help, cause I know she's got the green thumb in the family. Thx Jo 😘 Soil: Destiny Dark Matter Watering: ~ Every 2nd day 100 ml Light: 10 hrs natural greenhouse / 8 hrs LED

The plants are following and leaning towards the sunlight when I put them in the sunroom. They'll probably be happier once I get them in the greenhouse as soon as it starts warming up. My friend who's the Kush Queen, sent me pictures of her girls and they look great. I'm jealous...I think I need to call her and get some of her tips. You good with that R? 👊 Soil: Destiny Dark Matter Watering: ~ Every 2nd day 100 ml Light: 10 hrs natural greenhouse / 8 hrs LED

Isn't she pretty? I sat her down next to the window just as the sun was coming in and thought..."there's a good picture for this week" Don't get jealous Jo. She's got my eye but you've got my heart. 😘 Soil: Destiny Dark Matter Watering: ~ Every 2nd day 100 ml Light: 12 hrs natural greenhouse / 6 hrs LED

Veg growth tends to be better under the LEDs. I'ill continue to grow under 12 hrs sun / 6 hrs LED for the next few days. I may consider switching to 1/2 sun with 1/2 LED, mid week...but I doubt it, cause they look good as is. We'll see later in the week. I'm also training the oldest of the 3 and topped 2 of the three. Set-up the LST plant using a soft twist tie anchored with a large tie wrap in the soil to vary the height. Works good. It's starting to warm up and the greenhouse is set-up so I'm planning to move the plants there soon. Jo's tomatoes are looking good too. (They always look good) 😗 Soil: Destiny Dark Matter Watering: ~ Every 2nd day 100 ml Light: 12 hrs natural greenhouse / 6 hrs LED

Moved to the larger pots and the leaves are looking good and healthy. Just introduced the girls to their new greenhouse and they seem to like it when the temps go up, which means I'm needing to water them more. I needed to keep an eye on the heat in the greenhouse so I added a SmartSensor to let me know when the heat gets too high. So when it get's higher than 30C I need to crack the lid to get the needed airflow. Maybe install a fan this week. I'm real happy with the greenhouse set-up and the process is getting better each day. Only issue is that we have more plants than the greenhouse can hold. Jo's 200+ tomato plants are everywhere now that they've taken off. So I'm "shuffling" plants back and forth between the greenhouse and sunroom. Got some good vibes going and all is going well 👍... I hope I don't Fuck Up 🙏 Oh BTW, I'm new to this site and have visited some of the other more experienced growers and they're amazing. I'm getting some good info from some of the top growers. I'm hoping the Kush Gods send some of their talent my way. Soil: Destiny Dark Matter Watering: ~ Every every day 100 ml Light: 12 hrs natural greenhouse / 6 hrs LED

Weather was shitty the past week. Cold out and even snowed on a couple of days but I can't be too surprised living in Canada. Even with the cold, I was able to get some good temps and needed sunlight in my backyard greenhouse. I checked out a bunch of the other master growers and followed some of their techniques. Also doing a ton of research and learning a lot. Sometimes too much information can be a negative thing as I may have done too much radical training experimentation on one of the girls. I hope things work out over the next few weeks but if they don't, I'll chalk it down to experience and move on. The other 2 plants are showing great growth with healthy leaves. I noticed one of the girls has some deformed leaves but I'm not going to worry about it as the nodes are forming well. Probably messing with them too much so I'm going to take the advice of one of the other growers comments and LITFA. 😊 My wife thinks I'm obsessed with the grows, but that's ok cause I really enjoy growing these plants. It's one of the things that keeps me sane while I'm stuck at home trying to ride out the virus. It's really satisfying creating life and watching it grow during a time when there is so much sickness. I'm looking forward to the May 24 weekend when we plant our veg garden and I get to leave the girls outside permanently.

Finally some warm weather and some good sun. Fed the girls with some organic nutes and they responded well. They look healthy and happy so I'm just going to keep doin what I'm doin. Continued with the LST and some defoliation. (trim was done on the smaller plants that have become more bushy). I let the tall girl grow with only one topping and she looks beautiful.🌱 My plants have taken over all the real-estate in the greenhouse so Jo's tomato plants have been relegated to the shed for a couple of days but she's ok with that cause she's planning to plant them in the garden this week. We have a small garden and there's over 200 tomato plants so I don't know where the hell she's going to put them all. She'll probably share them with our neighbours. Maybe next year I'll plant just as many weed plants. 😜

Great weather this week 🌞 and the girls are growing well. The tall sister has outgrown the greenhouse and the smaller plants have filled out so I'll be moving to the flower stage this week. I know I should probably cut back some of the big leaves on the tall one to get a better yield, but I love looking a her the way she is so I'm leaving her as-is. Wifey Jo has given away most of her tomato plants which has freed up some space for us. I'll be upping the daily watering as the girls have become thirsty in this warm weather. I noticed that the leaves are starting to droop at the end of the day but perk up when I give them a drink. Ongoing defoliation and training.😊 Nice lemon skunky smell wafting in the backyard when I crack the lid of the greenhouse. ♨️ 🌱🌱🌱 🌱🐧🌱 🌱🌱🌱

First week of flowering and there's some good growth and stretch happening. Continuing with the weekly water treatment and leaf spray. Now that they're flowering, added 250 ml of Launch top dressing and nutrients in the daily watering cycle. It's amazing how these plants react differently depending on the techniques used. - The tall sister was topped once and grew 2 large mains and she's still growing. 🌿 - The middle sister was topped on some nodes and had some training to hold the nodes down to create more of a bushy plant. She's kinda thin but has good bud sites. 🌱 - The smaller sister was bent way over and I trained it in a coiled shape. This plant has the thickest stem and the most consistent node growth. I predict this girl will yield the most. (if I don't kill it first) 😝 All still going well. Man, I hope I don't fuck up.😳

Just finished week 2 of flowering and the girls just keep on growing under a week of great sun. They've been permanently moved out of the greenhouse and they're getting some added nutes. The sunny days have been drying out the top layer of soil so I'm tempted to water them more but I need to be disciplined and stick to the schedule. I noticed that one of the sisters is a mister so he's been removed from the garden. Girls only for this grow.

Flowering continues and it's nice to watch the buds continue to grow. A lot of sun and higher temps this week so I need to make sure the plants and soil don't overheat. They are taking more water each day too due to the good growth and temperatures. Male plant was removed and disposed of. I'm still a noob and I'm sure I could get better growth and yield by monitoring the nutrients, temperatures, CO2 etc etc. Maybe on my next grow, I'll be more "hard core" with the process.

More hot weather. Some of the older leaves on the tall girl were starting to burn and I suspected that the plant was root bound, so I transferred her to a bigger pot. During the switch, noticed that the roots had run out of space so I think the change was good. I also stopped the nutes this week and flushed with water. The plants look like they're doing better. 👍 Note to self on next grow...."Always transfer to the right size pot prior to flower". 😔

This grow is ended in week 13 and after 4 weeks of flower. The buds started developing seeds with some pollen sacs. I would have grown them to a full cycle but I have another grow with plants from feminized seeds so I had to remove them from my garden. I'll take whatever buds I could harvest and cook them up in some oil and I hope I get something out of this grow for all the effort. Chalk this one up to a learning experience. Note that this was a grow from some seeds I harvested from last year's grow so my expectations weren't too high to start with.
