22.01.2021. DAY 8 15:00h Watered with 250ml of bottled water with 1 ml of rhizotonic and 1ml of cannazym per plant. I think soil in the middle of the pot is still wet and I don't want to drown the roots. Day one under 250w full spectrum MH. Wilting of leaves because cfl was too close and burned them. *temperature in the picture is not correct because I have two more sensors that are in canopy level and in shade and max temp so far was 25.4c and RH currently is 54%. 24.01.2021. DAY 10 15:00h Watered with 250ml of bottled water per plant just to make the top of the soil damp. In a day or two after they will start getting get 500ml per plant. They seem happy so far. Temp 26-28c RH 50-60%. 25.01.2021. DAY 11 23:00 Decided to water with 1.5L of bottled water per plant with 3ml rhyzotonic and 4ml of cannazym. Soil felt real dry sticking my finger up to the socond knuckle. We will see how they respond. 26.01.2021. DAY 12 19:00 Slight changes to the base of leaves on both plants. Might be slight overwatering because it happened day after watering with 1.5L per plant. 27.01.2021. DAY 13 20:00 Noticed that plant #1 has 4 finger leaf growing on 3rd node and on the other side 5 finger leaf with strange small mutated middle finger. I named it Frankenstein :) 29.01.2021. DAY 15 19:30 Frankenstein is already showing sex. Must be a world record :) . Noticed one fungus gnat flylier but still not doing anything about since is only one, maybe it came from outside. Keeping an eye on that flying bastards. Letting soil dry out as much as I can because fungus gnats lay eggs only on wet soil.

29.01.2021. DAY 15 19:30 Frankenstein is already showing sex. Must be a world record :) . Noticed one fungus gnat flylier but still not doing anything about since is only one, maybe it came from outside. Keeping an eye on that flying bastards. Letting soil dry out as much as I can because fungus gnats lay eggs only on wet soil. Plant #2 is bigger than frankenstain and still not showing sex. 30.01.2021. DAY 16 23:50 Watered both plants with 1L of bottled water with 2ml rhizotonic, 3ml cannazym, 1ml terra vega(1/4 recommended normal feeding) - ph 6.5 - ppm 250. Started LST on both plants. Small crack on #2 plant from LST - my mistake, I didnt take my time and I rushed it :( . She will grow out of it its not a big deal but still mad at myself :). 31.01.2021. DAY 17 08:30 Both plants perking back up after LST. 01.02.2021. DAY 18 19:30 Some more LST. I managed to get the courage to bend plant #2 more, because it has a crack on the main stem :) .Plants are growing more horizontally now and I'm very happy about how they look now. I have a plan where each branch is going to be roughly. We will se how I manage flowering stretch :) . Lights lowered to 32cm from plants top. 02.02 2021 DAY 19 22:00 Watered with 1.2L of bottled water with 2.2ml of rhizotonic and 2.8ml of cannnazym. Ph 6.5 ppm 200. Both have very slight nute burn on the tips of the new growth. It's because of only 1ml of terra vega that i fed them last time. So they dont need nutes yet. Next watering will be with more water because think that around 1L of water did not penetrate deep enough for whole soil to be wet. Still don't know how much water to use next time. If someone who has similar setup and reading my diary can help be free to comment :) 03.02 2021 DAY 20 19:00 Did some more LST. Plants really enjoyed watering from yesturday. They were very happy :). Now after LST not so much :) 03.02 2021 DAY 20 22:00 Checked on the plants and saw plant #2 topped herself just below third node :( . I bent her over just a bit too much it seems. Really a shame. Both plants were looking perfect with the cannopy open and flat. I taped her up with duck tape and we will se how it goes. 04.02 2021 DAY 21 22:00 Plant #2 that has a broken main stem is doing nothing. No development on her at all. She is not turning yellow or growing at all. I hope she will recover. No thing new to add. Still very much depresed because I broke the stem :)

05.02.2021 DAY 22 23:30 Watered both plants with 2L of bottled water. Frankenstein got 1ml of terra vega, 6ml of rhizotonic and 8ml of cannazym and plant #2 that has main stem broken and is still recovering got only rhizotonic and cannazym. I don't know what to do if plant #2 recovers it will be twice the size of the other plant. I have created all sorts of problems by breaking main stem. I dont know will I be able to train it again if it recovers from broken stem because it will be time for flower already. We will see :) 06.02.2021 DAY 23 23:30 Plant #2 is still recovering from broken stem so no new growth :( . Frankenstein is showing a lot of pistils. She is looking good and praying. I don't know if this counts as start of flowering? I hope plant #2 will recover soon she lost too many days already not doing anything. 07.02.2021 DAY 24 23:00 Removed duck tape from the broken plant to see whats going on. It seems I didn't tape it up good enough. The middle of the stem is hollow only one half of the plant wall is recovered. Don't know what to do. Should I cut it where it broke or leave it as it is. I have to think about it. Tomorrow is watering day. Im going to water them until I see some runoff. 08.02.2021 DAY 25 22:30 Watering with 3.5L of tap water with 2ml of terra vega, 2ml of terra flores, 5ml of rhizotonic, 6ml of cannazym, 1ml of calmag, per plant, ph 6.5, ppm 500. We will see how they take it :) 09.02.2021 DAY 26 23:00 Both plants are liking watering of 3.5L per plant. I will try with 3.5L per plant twice a week with 3 days between watering. 10.02.2021 DAY 27 22:00 Plants are showing sligh nutrient burn on the tips of the leaves from feeding. I dont understand since I added less then 1/4 of light nutrient recommendation. Next watering will be plain ph'd water with rhizotonic, cannazym and little cal-mag only. I fear that it will lack nitrogen in flowering if I don't add it now but its showing slight burn so I wont add it to this watering. Plants new growth is just slightly less green than the older leaves so I don't think it lacks nitrogen. Did some more light lst on frankenstein. Broken plant started stretching but Im not too pleased with how the development of bud sites are going. They are both stretching but not extremely. 11.02.2021 DAY 28 23:00 Trying out 400w HPS bulb that friend gave me. Height from the top of the plants is around 45cm. I will have to see what the temps are with this light. Light lst almost every day for frankenstein. Lots of bud sites emerging :). Main cola on frankenstein is really hard to keep under control. Supercropped plant #2 that had a broken main stem because she started to stretch and is two times taller than frankensten that is heavy lst'd. 3 days since last watering but they are not yet ready for watering. I think tommorow the soil is going to be dry enough.

12.02.2021 DAY 29 16:00 Still stretching but I will count this as start of flowering. Temps with 400W HPS are ok. 28c and humidity is around 50%. But I had to use two humidifiers because humidity was very low at 30%. Don't know what to do when buds start really forming and fattening as I won't be able to use humidifiers because of high risk of bud rot. I will have to think of something. Watered with 4.5L of tap water per plant with 10ml of rhizotonic per plant, ph 6.5, 360ppm. The plants drooped for few hours and then started praying. I did get runoff but it was really a few drops. I dont know why they drooped so much. Maybe I should have watered even more slowly. Main cola on frankenstein is impossible to lst :). I trided to use duct tape to lst her because the wire that I use just slips down and she perks back up, but duct tape didn't work and it also slipped down even though its strong as hell. Im letting her grow this way because I don't want to stress her anymore by bending her every day again and again. 13.02.2021 DAY 30 22:30 Light LST on both plants. Height of the broken plant is giving me trouble as I tought it would. Since I put the 400W HPS the intensity of the light is too strong for her as she is almost 40cm high with the LST and suppercropped min stem, she is 38cm from the bulb now. I hope she doesn't stretch anymore because im going to have to suppercrop every top and stress her even more. But I look at her as an experiment so it is not a big deal :). She got light bleach on some of the tops closest to the light. I don't expect much from her because she got stressed very bad when I broke the main stem and didn't tape it up good so she is still struggling because main stem has not healed properly. 14.02.2021 DAY 31 08:00 Turned on small fan and played with the setup and got almost perfect conditions 26c and around 50% humidity but using two humidifiers. They are still stretching. I hope it will stop soon or I will have to go back to 250w bulb. Buds on the frankenstein are starting really form. Plant #2 is lagging behind. 15.02.2021 DAY 32 12:30 Both plants totally drooped because I waited too long to water. It was a horrible sight :) . Max time between watering is 3 days now. Maybe even less. I will have to look at them closely from now on because they are getting thirsty. Watered with 4.2L of tap water with 2.5ml rhizotonic, 2.5ml vega, 2.5ml flores, 1.5ml cal/mag, 10ml cannazym. Ph 6.5 ppm 500. Watered just untill runoff appeared then stopped. They both perked up after few hours. 16.02.2021 DAY 33 23:00 Signs of first deficiency or excess not sure. I have to check it in normal light and not this hps because the color is not very clear. It seems like it is dark blue and/or rusty color spots on middle leaves. Google tells me it can be phosphorous defficiency or excess. 17.02.2021 DAY 34 23:00 Watered only frankensten 12 hours early then planned, due to phosphorus deficiency. Mixed 5L of tap water with 6ml of terra flores, 13ml pf cannazym and 10ml of canna boost, ph 6.7, ppm 430 - stopped when I saw runoff, she drank 4L. Im trying to stop spreading of dark blue spots on older leaves that eventually turn to rusty purplish color and leaf starts to die. Good thing I defoliated very lightly so I have few leaves to spare :). They are both still stretching... 18.02.2021 DAY 35 23:00 Watered Plant #2 with 4.5L of tap water, terra flores 7ml, 3.5ml cannazym, 3ml of canna boost, ph 6.7, 460ppm. Measured runoff, ph 5.98, ppm 1300? It seems I have salt buildup so runoff ppm is so high. They are still stretching but started fattening a bit.

19.02.2021 DAY 36 23:00 Stretch is not over yet for both plants. It seems frankenstein slowed down spreading signs phosphorous defficiency on the leaves. I hope it stops so I don't have to worry about it. 20.02.2021 DAY 37 16:00 Watered frankenstein with (5L)4.3L of water, 2ml terra vega, 6ml terra flores, 3ml canna boost, 2ml rhizotonic, 3.5ml of cannazym, ph 6.9. Next watering is definitely going to be ph'd plain water. Watering has to be done in max 2.5 days from last one or plants will droop like frankenstein drooped and its been only 63 hours since last watering. 21.02.2021 DAY 38 12:00 Watered plant#2 with around 6L plain ph'd water ph 6.8, ppm 300. Runoff was around 0.3-0.4L ph was 6.2, ppm 950. I think they slowed down the stretch so I hope it will stop because I am really running out of space. Frankenstein looks a little pale so I will have to up the feeding, but it seems phosporous defficiency has stopped spreading. 22.02.2021 DAY 39 18:30 Watered frankenstein with 5L of tap water 7ml of terra vega, 6ml of terra flores, 2ml of pk 13/14, 3.5ml of cannazym, 10ml of canna boost, ph 6.6, ppm 640. Runoff ph 6.6, ppm ~840. 23.02.2021 DAY 40 16:00 Watered plant#2 with 5L of tap water with 11ml of terra flores, 4ml of cannazym, 10ml of canna boost, ph 6.56, ppm 586. Runoff ph 6.4, ppm 643. Frankenstein showing slight nute burn on the tips of some leaves. It could be from pk 13/14. Going to try to lower watering ppm but don't know if it can be done because I started lowering my feeding mix to under ph 6.4. 25.02.2021 DAY 42 12:00 Watered frankenstein with 5L of tap water with 7ml cannazym, ph 6.3, ppm 480. Runoff ph 6.6, ppm 480. Frankenstein is getting a bit light colored and I don't like it. I don't know the cause. It doesnt look like nitrogen defficiency because it is showing on random leaves on the plant and not the oldest ones which would be typical for nitrogen defficiency. Also magnesium defficiency has started to show on both plants. Going to suplement next watering with magnesium sulfate.

26.02.2021 DAY 43 13:00 Watered plant#2 with 5L of tap water and around teaspoon of magnesium sulfate because magnesium deficiency started spreading on most of the lower leaves ph 6.25, ppm ~500. 27.02.2021 DAY 44 16:00 Watered frankenstein with 5L of tap water, little magnesium, 10ml of terra flores, 4ml of cannazym, 4ml of canna boost, ph 6.45, ppm 611. Runoff ph 6.8, ppm 620. Checked ph pen for accuracy it is showing 0.15 less than actual ph. So solution ph actually 6.6ph and runoff ph 6.95ph. I will start to reduce ph slowly because it is too high. It could be that ph is the root cause of all my deficiencies. Going to aim for 6.3-6.4ph. 28.02.2021 DAY 45 23:59 Watered plant #2 tap water, flores 10ml, cannazym 8.6ml, boost 10ml , magnesium sulfate 60ppm, ph 6.21, 530ppm. Runoff ph 6.3, 678 ppm. 02.03.2021 DAY 47 04:50 Light flush of frankenstein because it seems to be locked because of too high ph. Flushed with 15l of demineralized water ph 6.0, after that watered with demineralized water and 12.4ml flores, cannazym 5.2ml, 4.5 rhyzotonic, 10ml boost, ph 6.1. Runoff ph 6.46, ppm 384. Frankenstein stopped developing flowers completely and has shown signs of heat stress and a lot of pale leaves with rust spots on them. Now after flush I'm going to watch her closely. I hope she will get better now. 03.03.2021 DAY 48 23:59 Watered plant#2 with 6L mix of demineralised and tap water starting ppm 130, 12.4ml of flores, 5.2ml of cannazym, 2.5ml of rhyzotonic, 10ml of boost, ph 6.3, 450 ppm. Runoff ph 6.4, 770 ppm. Runoff ppm is a little high. Maybe there is a lot of salt buildup. I will do a light flush when the time comes for the next watering. It seems light flush on frankesteing was good. It looks like yellowing of the leaves and brown rust spots stopped spreading. We will see what will happen on the next watering.

05.03.2021 DAY 50 19:00 Watered frankenstein with 6L of demineralized water with canna normal feed chart divided by 2.25. Runoff was around 6.6ph so I watered with 5 liters of 5.7ph pure demineralised water and 5l of same feeding from the canna chart ph'd to 5.6 divided by 2.25 . And the runoff was again 6.55. I think a because of the calcium buildup from tap water that is hard with 300ppm and a lot of calcium in it. The plant doesnt look that good. Its rusting and yellowing. I don't like it. And the same simptoms started showing on the other plant. We will see. 07.03.2021 DAY 52 23:59 Watered plant#2 which is starting to get pale and getting rust spots on uper leaves. Watered with 6L of tap water mixed with tap water satarting ppm 120, added everything by the canna feeding chart devided by 2.1, ph 6.43, 570 ppm. Runoff was 1040 ppm so the plant probably locked nutrient ultake and thats why yellowing and rust spots appearing. Didn't have time to do a flush so next watering its going to be demineralised water leaching. 09.03.2021 DAY 54 11:00 Watered frankenstein with 6L demineralised water plus canna feeding chart devided by 2.2 and 2.5ml of cal/mag, ph 6.1, 550 ppm.The plant is looking better and greener after the flush. Flushed plant#2 with 20L of demineralised water ph'd to 6.3 and measured runoff only after the flush which was 6.65ph. Crazy but it is the exactly the same as frankenstein. I would say calcium buildup in the mediumfrom very hard water with initial ppm of 330 raising the ph and locking plant nutrient intake. I think it is going to recover after the flush.

13.03.2021 DAY 58 09:00 Watered frankenstein with 6L of demineralized water with canna feeding program divided by 2.15 except boost 12ml and cal/mag 2.5ml, ph 6.0, 510 ppm. Runoff ph 6.55, 502 ppm. Frankenstein has recovered from the nutrient lock very good, but of course the leaves that got affected are still rusty and yellowish and will not repair itself so I have trouble seeing if she is hungry or not. 13.03.2021 DAY 58 23:00 Watered plant#2 with 6L of demineralized water with half dose of terra flores and pk 13/14 and the rest of the feeding program full dose, ph 6.15, 576 ppm. Runoff ph 6.3, 657 ppm. I will continue to feed with full dose of nutrients except terra flores which will be half dose and will not give any more pk 13/14. 16.03.2021 DAY 61 19:00 Watered frankenstein with 7.5L of demineralized water with half dose of terra flores, 2.25ml of pk 13/14, and the rest of the feeding program full dose, ph 5.9, 550 ppm. Runoff ph 6.5, 711 ppm. Next watering will probably be ph'd water only because the runoff ppm is rising, so to prevent salt bulidup in the medium. 16.03.2021 DAY 61 23:00 Watered plant#2 with 7.5L of demineralized water with half dose of terra flores, 2.25ml of pk 13/14, and the rest of the feeding program full dose, ph 6.0, 550 ppm. Runoff ph 6.3, 610 ppm. Plant#2 is looking like it's getting better from yellowing and rusting. 18.03.2021 DAY 63 15:00 Checked the trichomes on frankenstein. They are mostly milky on top half of thr plant, bottom half of the plant still has lots of clear. Frankenstein looks ready to harvest but since plant #2 is approximately one week or so behind because I broke main stem I am going to let frankenstein overripe if I have to and let plant #2 finish properly. Trichomes on plant#2 are still mostly clear but I think in a week or two it is going to be ok to harvest. I don't know if I should start the flush now or feed once more and start flushing. For frankenstein I would start the flush without thinking because the top colas are so swolen already and it is clear she has just a week or so to finish but plant #2 Im not sure if can come down in two weeks or a little more. Smell is wonderful on both plants. Frankenstein is a little more pungent and plant#2 is pure citrus smell yam yam :)

19.03.2021 DAY 63 23:30 Watered both plants with only demineralized ph'd water at 5.9 ph. Runoff was frankenstein ph 6.62/430ppm, plant#2 ph 6.52/340ppm. 22.03.2021 DAY 66 23:30 Watered both plants with 7.5L of demineralized water with 10.5ml of terra flores, 19.5ml of canna rhizotonic, 30ml of canna boost, ph 5.9, 290 ppm. Runoff frankenstein 6.67ph, 390ppm, plant#2 6.34ph, 390ppm. They are almost ready for two week flush. Maybe one more light feed. I will see in three days.

26.03.2021 DAY 70 12:00 Full 10 weeks from sprout. They are smelling lovely and are pretty swolen. No amber trichomes and a lot of cloudy on the dominant colas. Lower not so developed buds still have at least 50% or more clear trichomes. But they are there. They will probably get one more really light feed and the just water. But without any previous growing experience it is hard to tell. I will go by the trichome color and overall look of the plant. Both are starting yo really get yellow leaves from low dose of nutrients I was feeding last two times. I hope I did not start to reduce too soon ☺️ 29.03.2021 DAY 73 17:00 Watered each plant with 6L of demineralized water, frankenstein got 10.5ml of canna flores plant#2 got 13ml of canna flores because has a lot more yellow leaves than frankenstein. Plants are fading in color because of low dose of nutrients I am giving them, its autmn here 🙂 . They are going down in 10 days I would say, maybe even less. Can't wait to see how much grams each produces 😁 01.04.2021 DAY 76 23:30 Flush has begun 🙂 Watered each plant with 6L of demineralized water, ph 6.0, ppm 60. Runoff frankenstein 6.78 ph /256ppm, plant#2 6.48 ph/291ppm. Flushing for a week or so and taking them both down in 8 days probably. They are foxtailing because it is a liitle too hot in the grow room. Canopy temp is 27c-29c. Strange that there are no amber trichomes to be found on the calyxes, on sugar leaves there are few.

06.04.2021 DAY 81 03:30 Harvest day is here 😎 FAST BUDS ORANGE SHERBET AUTO HARVEST 🤓 Both plants are cut at the base and are hanging upside down in the grow room. I only cut large fan leaves and left sugar leaves and smaller fans to prolongue drying as long as I can. Humidifyers are set to manage the RH of 55-65% and temps are around 19C. I am hoping to dry for 14 days and then to the jars for curing, but I will check them daily to se if the branches snap or bend. Also hope for no mold 😂😂 If everything goes to plan the strain report will be in two weeks or maybe less if my patience gives up 😆 Thanks for reading and see you in two weeks... maybe less 😉

Still taking buds off the drying plant partially and puting them in jars. It looks I have overdried a little judging by the airy larfy stuff because RH in the jar is only 53%. We will see when I put good buds in the jar and not this airy stuff. Smoke and atrain report is coming. For now I will just say that I am amazed 😄 Omg 335g from both plants 😆 I can't believe it. I was hoping to get around 100g since its my first time. Smoke report in few days. Im too tired to write after 10 hours of trimming 😂
