Week 17
Day 113 (04/12/2020)💧:
Nice start to the week with a watering. Just as last week, I will be giving her the increased nutrients until the flush. However, I will stop with the CalMag because it seems that the leaves are damaged because the buds are absorbing so many nutrients. I don’t think the CalMag can help here 😅. So today I gave her 1.5ml of BioGrow, 6ml of BioBloom, and 6ml of TopMax.
Day 114 (05/12/2020):
The trichomes were looking beautiful today! You can see in the pictures that some are getting more amber now which is a great sign that she is almost ready 🌸
Day 115 (06/12/2020):
Took a quick pic of the tent but didn’t have much time to check the girls properly. I’m sure they are great as always 👌
Day 116 (07/12/2020)💧:
I watered the girl today with the same nutrients: 1.5ml of BioGrow, 6ml of BioBloom, and 6ml of TopMax. The buds on this girl are looking super dense and even the ones at the bottom are getting bigger! I hope that this 6ml of TopMax will fatten them up even more in the next few weeks before harvest 😄
Day 117 (08/12/2020):
Didn’t have time to take pictures today actually
Day 118 (09/12/2020):
I’ve gotta say that the smell is definitely evolving in a more sweet direction. It has developed into a kind of a citrusy/grape-flavoured sweet drink. It smells so good I wanna eat it 🍽️😋
Day 119 (10/12/2020)💧:
Watered the girl today with the same nutrients as last time giving them 1.5ml of BioGrow, 6ml of BioBloom, and 6ml of TopMax. She doing well but again some of the leaves and stems at the bottom were definitely a bit sad and wilting. But nevertheless, I took some videos and close-ups pictures and the buds look incredible. Also looking from their trichomes, I noticed some more amber ones so I am thinking to even start the 2 weeks flush from next watering onwards and prepare for harvest! Will assess the trichomes in a few days and decide.
Wow beautiful monster flowers. Makes me think I let too many smaller branches develop when I see such a concentrated and controlled grow like yours. Enjoy the results!
@Superjd, Thanks! I actually think I should have lollipopped and removed more of the smallest ones at the bottom to let the main buds grow even bigger. But they have just finished drying so will post a Harvest diary soon!
Thanks for sharing a new diary with one of our strains.
We hope you enjoy it :P
Once finished, with the final notes of the strains, you can ask us for more seeds to share another diary.
Sweet smokes!

Great grow so far!! Sweet Zkittlez is definitely a great strain, can’t wait to see your results!
Also, I don’t think that the damage is from gnats or any environmental factor. It appears to be a calmag deficiency on the brown splotchy damaged leaves. Lower leaves shouldn’t be yellowing this early, this typically tends to be a sign of a nitrogen deficiency. Sometimes PK deficiencies can look similar but its a little early for that.
A white widow I was growing showed almost identical signs and as soon as I gave her organic Calmag + more vegetative/grow phase nutrients she stopped showing signs of deficiency. I only grow organic as well so I use Root’s Organic CalMag since it is certified and OMRI listed.
FreshCoastBudz, Hey, thanks, that's really helpful! I had no idea what it was but CalMag deficiency actually makes a lot of sense because yesterday some of the fan leaves on her have been going yellow on the outside but still staying dark green in the centre I really wasn't sure what it was. Thanks for the help! I have some BioBizz CalMag which I got in case this happened so will use it at next watering with some more nitrogen as well and hopefully it helps! 😀
