Getting ready to flower these girls want a little more height, I can wait till this weekend to flip the switch. May swap in the HPS before hand and run 400w for 18/6 for a few days then go 600w 12/12
__________________________________
11th September Day 47
HPS set at 400w till flowers appear and stretch over then I will turn up to 600
2L to each pot, no run off guessing that’s a good sign. Next feed if I put another 2L through and see no run off next time I will put another 500 and upping to 2.5L every 3 days.
When they’re budding up and drinking lots every 1-2 days

UPDATE: Height of plants on day 49 was 22cm, lights went off for 20hrs to account for the loss of 6hrs.
The 12/12 Light cycle starts... Can she produce in 55 days or is this 55 days from stretch which brings us closer to 70 days. Im hoping the former...
As we enter flower there’s some points to note.
For the next 2-3 weeks I will be shaping the girls to try and maximise bud size.
•First 2 weeks since flip to flower involves removing branches.
• Last week when the flowers appear at the crown is when I will strip the plant of her leaves.
And no more “Veg” nutrients needed.
Problem with trying so many new Products, ideas and technique’s is that you forget stuff that worked. The age old saying of “don’t fix what’s not broken”
So on that note, a PK boost as soon as we see those flowers is something I’ve left out on all my recent organic grows.

4th October Day 70 (Week 11)
All my lady’s got a trim today... took only leaves that were shading bud sites. It looks like I have about 1 more solid week of bud formation, then expect them to start fattening up by week 13. I will then hit them with another PK spike for the home stretch.
Substituted till Humic Acid plus and Big Fruits till they arrive.

Stretch has clearly stopped I don’t expect there to be much more height now. We are in full flower leaves are looking a nice shade of green and that’s from the top to the bottom.
Now it’s time to lower the light to maximize on bud development. I will lower it to 17” (from highest point of canopy in the center)

I definitely want to lose a bit of green from the leaves ASAP.
I’ve backed off the MagneCal+ and More PK as they both have extra N and Mag, I don’t want that now.
Im using some canna PK to try and offset the Nitrogen for a few days.
I’ll have to stop using MagneCal all together.
Praying for the big fruits to arrive, I realise how big it makes my fruits now that I’ve run out :(

Big Fruits has arrived!!
Huge thank you to Enrico from Green Buzz Liquids!!
Green Buzz Liquids has been perfecting an organic mix suitable for “Tomato’s” for over 20 years. They have been on the market to consumers since 2014 in Germany, now we are all lucky enough to have access!
I highly suggest switching over to this nutrient line if you’re in coco or soil!! For so many reasons, it’s organic is the main thing, good for you, the planet, and your plants especially, price... the list goes on.
If you already have some additives that’s fine, speak to me directly if you want any advice or you’re thinking of purchasing I can try and help you decide what actually need.
I priced up a few of the competitors nutrients and for what you get in each bottle of green buzz liquids I’m saving loads! they go much further so is more are more affordable in the long run! you’re not required to feed every watering with the base products in soil and even in coco (if you build up a good microbe colony).
You can use my code Pharmaz which gets us 10% discount, If you use my code it gives me discount when I purchase.
I swear by this product!
For the feed today, all girls got 2.5L of mix below, with some much loved Big Fruits. Let’s all see how much swell we get this week XD

Noticing a little tip burn, I’m thinking that could be from not using any nutrients last feed and causing a little imbalance in the medium.
I’ve added the SF2000 to the tent now, HPS on 400w,
On the same timer, both roughly 17” from canopy.

1st November Day 98 (Week 15)
Super duper sweet with a cherry on top!
For my preference she’s ready to come down now!
There’s a fair amount of amber trichomes up top on the crowns, around 10% amber. Indicating, the breeders advice of 7 weeks Flowering was pretty accurate!
I will hang her whole then work on the branches as they’re drying. First I’ll chop all the larger leaves off, I take off some sugar leaves but keep most till the final manicure.
**APPEARANCE**
A highly anticipated strain from a highly regarded breeder!
She was a real stunning little bush from start to finish.
I expected her to be the smallest due to the amount of coco in the pot was a little less than the others.
Also when it came to around week 5/6 of flower a fellow growmie let me know she was only a 49 day flower strain not 56 like I thought.
The buds were as advertised
rock solid, frosty nugz!
**AROMA**
Currently the sweetest strain in my stash! As the sweet seeds bio says, Candy shop sweet smell,
I’m smelling a little burnt sugar lingering in the background. It’s mostly sweet candy, with a hint of pine also.
**FLAVOUR**
Such a complex sweet flavour as it’s not just like a berry sweet or tropical... She’s like a vanilla milkshake with a lb of sugar added plus some sugar-frosting with whipped cream on top! I can taste the THC she has that familiar hasty taste that fills up your nose :) it’s a very cloudy smoke.
**EFFECT**
As it goes with that hasn’t taste so does that very strong body high. I took her a little longer than breeder specified 49days but after all we want to be satisfied after a trip to the candy shop 10* strain!
Looking a little droopy there. Perhaps too much water or two much nutes? That strains a winner though! I’m growing one as well 😎. Best of luck with your grow 👍
Your tip burns can be directly related to under watering especially in Coco Coir and not to be mistaken with nutrient burn. Letting your medium dry out too much and for too long will cause this. May not be your case but just sharing my experience experience with Coco. Too much Calcium And or Nitrogen will cause difficulties for your plant to uptake potassium. I’m running into this issue now
@PharmaZ, I’m not a fan of too much N, mid-flower especially. Your plant need PK so if you already see plenty of N, I would reduce as much as possible keeping mostly ppm of Ca Mg P & K
@GreenHouseLab, True that lol!
The nutrients I use are considered organic except the Plant magic magnecal+
I noticed mid flower the leaves getting dark green and waxy/shiny looking. I generally consider Nitrogen toxicity when the tips start clawing and the leaves “Canoe” in shape.. however this time none of this leaves looked perfect except the dark green.
I’m sure it’s you using that Gia amendments right? Seen a guy on YT call Mr Canuck.. he rocks the shit out of amendments in coco! And so do you I see ✌️
@PharmaZ, nothing is as cut n dry like the foolish answers I see in the grow questions. Like any illness, symptoms can take days to week to show up so its not necessarily linked to your last feed. I use dry organic amendments totally different, I give no run off. In your case if you see deficiencies you should make sure the very next feed sees a good 10-15% runoff. That will do multiple things like remove excess salts, ensure your medium is back to its PH range and reduce your ppms in case it started compounding. Anytime you see deficiencies lower your feed but provided all essential nutrients. You can feed every watering just at a lower ppm like 700 and slightly increase as you get to know your plants. When your medium becomes too dry especially coco it’ll create a reverse osmosis in effect and suck the nutrients out of the plant hence deficiencies, usually noticeable relatively quickly. I water daily, at a PH of 6.3
@GreenHouseLab, and yes prior to your comment I thought she was 8 weeks.
I then checked to see it was 6-7...
We’re currently at day 44 since flip, she will be ready next week so 7-8 for my liking
@GreenHouseLab, She sprouted a few bananas my dude :P
Very Frosty though aye, with a super sweet candy smell!
It’s not overpowering it is addictive!!
Your girls look great! Will be following yours too ✌️
