Here we go on our way to sticking a fork in this run! Her fade is in full swing and she's putting out trichomes like crazy! Hopefully by the end of this week she'll be hanging after she spends a couple of nights in the dark. I watered today using straight water that's ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 72℉. I gave her a 1g to keep her flush going and then turned her pot. Trichome status: 70% milky / 30% clear 10/13- I watered today with 0.75g of straight water that was ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 72℉ and gave her pot a turn. She's progressing in her fade and is still bulking up. Her trichomes aren't quite where I like them yet, so more than likely she'll be going in the dark by next weekend! She is one beautiful cultivar! 🤩💚 10/15- My routine of watering every other day continues. Yesterday I watered her with her usual 1.5g of straight de-chlorinated water that was ph'd to 6.5-6.7 @ 72℉ and gave her pot a turn. Today was just spent checking her over, turning her pot and doing a quick check of her trichomes which are close, but not quite ripe enough yet! 10/17- Wow!... Eight weeks of flower DONE! 😎👍 Now my sights are set on getting this girl finished up and on her way to 48 hours in the dark before she's hung to begin drying. I went ahead and watered her with her usual 0.75g of straight de-chlorinated water that was ph'd to 6.7 @ 72℉ and checked her trichomes, which are looking just about right! This journey is coming to a close in the next couple of weeks with her harvest, drying and trimming up. I so appreciate you following along with me , it's been a blast sharing with you all! 😎🙏 ~Thanks so much for checking out my diary! This epic run is in the home stretch with harvest fast approaching...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~ This week promises to be exciting so don't forget to check in! Harvest time will be here before you know it and I'm getting stoked to see the results! 😎🙏💚 ~Thanks for stopping in! This epic run is in the home stretch with harvest fast approaching...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Semana tranquila, algunos altibajos con el PH, pero siempre dentro de la norma. Empezaré a cambiar las cantidades de nutrientes. Están consumiendo mucha agua, pienso que será producto de la floración y el dehumificador dentro del cuarto. Olores controlados... creo... o al menos cerca de la puerta del sótano no se siente, solo una ves a 2 metros de la grow, tendré que comprar algunos geles de mas. Esta mañana hice un generador de CO2 casero y lo agregué a la grow, veremos cómo procede la floración.

This week has started of with the girls doing well some new growth. A lot of wind this week but cooler temps. Plastic layer added aswell as gravel on top to help with parasites and possible cooler temps. Plants treated for pest and fungus once a week until flower. Day 3 Sprayed for parasites and fungus. Day 4 It has been raining before day break. Jah has taken over the watering for us today. But not enough. Watered with nutrient water in the afternoon. Everybody praying. Day 5 Removing all leaves with spider mites, washed down the rest of the leaves and sprayed for parasites and fungus. Day6-7 Plants were left in the car of the gods. He did well and took care of them very well with a 2 nice showers of rain followed by sun.

The buds and trichimes are developing nicely. The defoliation didn't harm them at all. The plants are starting to get really thirsty so I'm giving bigger amounts of water. 10 liters at the moment.

The northern lights from herbies was a best the plant was the fastest growing plant out of 10 strains. In the same amount of time as 9 other plants of different strains this plant grew huge 2 times as big and it finished up flowering after only 45 or 46 days of 12/12. It has a good smell. I only set back is it doesn’t seem to be super dense with tricombs. Don’t get me wrong the plant has plenty I would guess around the low 20% of thc. That’s not bad at all it’s just not a 30% plus thc type of plant but it’s still a great plant

Update : week 4 for the Amnesia haze has been interesting. Sadly her 5th node snapped clean off during her lst so she is now an official quadline. She has settled into the pot so well now and has done a nice bit of growing the past few days. I am happy with her look and health. She should be a good finish too. The Sweet Afgani Delicious is happier now she is in the NFT tank along with the Red hot cookie. They look so lost compared to the Amnesia in her big pot and a few weeks older. They have perked up and started to show more chlorophyll over the past few days too. I think a week will give me a chance at some lst with the smaller girls. Be safe Growmies

What a journey! We started out with a fungal infection or dampening off. Either way, she survived to bring some of the hardest buds ever grown. Very impressed. The resilience of thos one is something to note. Currently the plant is in control of the humidity. But it won't be for very long. Not once the exhaust fan kicks in to max power. The temp is stable at 61° f. Humidity is at 62%. Now 63 and climbing. 🤔. I adjusted it. And it won't stay still. It either plummets or spikes up. A tiny opening in the door dropped it super fast. While closing it up spiked it in the mid 60s. I'm trying to level it out at 55%. The temp is perfect. I should be able to do it. I can tweek it until it works properly. .so I just pulled the roots out of the bucket. I had a whole bunch of goopy shit all in the roots in buried in the pebbles. What the hell is that? I'm trying to find out right now. It was all black and nasty. It smelled like soil. Not strong or anything, but like I didn't use soil. Anyway, I did use carboflush and it turned the water a super dark brown. Maybe that's part of it. Or maybe that was the problem all along. Black root rot? Root rot at all? The roots seemed fine. Just the sludge all in their business. How should I have cleared that out if I saw it? Dump plain water through the hydroton? I think I'll do that for my next run. Once a week top off into the hydroton. Makes sense. It should keep the roots clean? 12/16/2025 Day 1 of drying Papaya Cookies and the environment looks great. It swings a bit, but doesn't go over 61% and I haven't seen it go under 45%. I know it's a big swing, but the temp is solid at 61° and it's in range. I expect it to be a bit more controlled in a few days after the plant dries out a bit. You know, when she has less control over the humidity. The goal is 61° and 53% humidity. I'm pretty sure I can keep it at 60%, but maybe I want 55%. I'm thinking 55% because it's the top of the ideal range and it still matches the temp. So it should I perfectly. So for the setup. I don't think I properly explained it yesterday. The 2x2 is connected to the 3x3 with a 4" duct. You can see in the picture that the hose is installed on the top of the 2x2 and to the upper 6" port on the right side of the tent. There's a reason I'm telling you this. The 4" charcoal filter is on the left side of the tent. If it were on the right side I'd have to attach the dry tent to the left side of the 3x3. The goal is to exhaust the dry tent with the whole 3x3 circulating air throughout, before exhausting the dry tent. Instead of the filter being right above the port, sucking in way too much from the dry tent and neglecting the rest of the 3x3. It makes sense in my head. So far it's seems to be working. The air in the tent has been exhausting just fine. With the 2 circular fans running at level 7 dynamic mode, it moves the leaves just enough and mimics the outside world quite well without any harsh gusts. I wonder. Seeing as though a cannabis plant needs to be pollinated, and it goes airborne, wouldn't having larger gusts of wind help a healthy cannabis plant to grow bigger buds as to catch the pollen? That makes sense to me. Don't overdo it, just a few little gusts just like September and October. At harvest season. I bet that will do something. Maybe I'll turn the speed up to 9 and see what happens. Wind burn on these leaves is the least of my problems. Plus, it'll be fine. Don't you worry. Maybe she'll produce more trichomes and bulk up a bit more. It makes total sense. Without wind burn, just under where it would start to happen, I bet she will finish up nicely and have added a bit more bulk too. 12/17/2025 Day 2: The humidity is bouncy. It stays in range from 46% to 61% I'd like to see it stabilize at 55%, but I don't think I'll see that until I have a bit more control over the space. It's funny. To bring the humidity up when it's low, I open the main tent and the air doesn't get pulled out of the dry tent making it more humid. I open the dry tent a little to drop the humidity. Either way, it's in range and the temp doesn't move at all. It warmed up here for the day and the temp went from 61 to 64 and holding steady. Nothing else to report. 12/18/2025 Day 3 of drying and we are looking great! A lot of her smell has changed to a sharp pungent scent. Meh. I know it's gonna be back to some insanely good smell very soon. After all it's only day 3. I woke up to the humidity hovering around 47% I was kinda hoping it would stay between 50% and 55%. No matter, I added a bowl of water to help keep the humidity up a bit. Hopefully it keeps it under control at 55%. Other than that, nothing else to report. 12/19/2025 So day 4 and I had to add a mini humidifier to the dry tent. It was dropping below 50% and I want it around 53%. The temp is 60° f. So now the humidity is at 54° and is leveled out. I'm guessing maybe 7 days? 10 to 12 days is what I'm going for. The longer the better, but I also have another plant that has to go in there and they won't fit together. The only reason I'm concerned with it is because I'm starting new seeds today or tomorrow. Probably today and I'll be needing the 3x3 in the next week or 2. This little lady will be done by then, but my other plant might have to dry in the 3x3 and that'll take 10 to 14 days. By then the seedlings will be ready for their buckets. Or well, no. They will be ready for their buckets in about 10 days. If not less. Maybe 8 days. I usually add them to the final container just before the roots really start coming in. That way I'm not shocking them too much when they hit the medium.

Another week down. I'd say 3 more to go for a majority of the plants here. One of the zkittles phenotypes is about ready and her immune system is starting to fail so I harvested her. She was an early flower most likely due to root bound stresses. Not a fan of this pheno for structure and mold/stress resistance. The others are looking awesome. Barely any mold

8/17 - Fed the ladies with liquid nutrients today. Also did some selective defoliation. The soil looks really healthy. You can see how happy my worms are. The two are coming along nicely and just starting to bud. 8/19 - Top fed all the ladies today with Uprising Grow, Uprising Bloom, and Elemental. 8/21 - They are in bloom! They are beginning to flower and looking lovely. In between feedings I water with RO water and molasses. They seem to love it. 8/24 - Blooming along nicely! Watering just about every day now. Added some mulch to the tops that I made from the dried leaves I take during defoliation. Hoping to keep the tops a little more moist.

All the plants are doing great, the Lsd-25 is flowering the other one is still short, the blackberry Autos are done stretching, the other one is tall. I dont think the blackberry autos will yield much. The short Lsd-25 is real bushy ive defoliated that plant twice and its leaves grows back fast. Next week i will begin to use full tilt and over drive. Im going to stop using fish it and liquid seaweed

All the Pheno’s are green and healthy, Indoors was overwatered or the substrate got too cold. I started seeing what looked like Iron lock out(pale yellow/whitish color on the new growth’s basal leaflet). I reduced the frequency of the added Coconut water powder and Aloe Vera powder and allowed the substrate to heat up to above 72 degrees Fahrenheit(was 68F) and now the new growth is turning a vibrant green again. #1 and #4 are my favorite out of the outdoor and indoor sisters. The indoor plants started showing sex on April 18th 2022, still waiting on outdoors to show sex.

This week I have changed the 400w HPS lights for a 240w Leds, and I have seen great improvements for the rust burn that used to plague me for quite some times seems to have stopped and repair to the parts still viable started, now I know it was due to hight intensity and heat for 12h on those fan leaves that turned them dry and eventually burned them... I still have to watch out because those Leds are powerful and loaded with Deep red, IR and UV! They are at 45 cm the closest and 70cm the furthest no bleaching is seen so far, I am keeping a close eye on those leaves tip and if I see bleaching to those I higher up the lights for a while... I feel like I am dancing around those marvelous plants, sometimes pulling the lights or dimming them, tucking those fan leaves shadowing lower growth whenever I feel they need a break or a hand! Trying to be a cannabis whisperer lol Added 2 tablespoons of fish blood and bones to top layer with worm castings and bat guano a handful. Lots of spiky hair on one and the other those are curly. They look almost the same, lots of trichomes, at least 16% covered and smell kushy and flowery, very nice. Let's hope the leaves do not get worse and the repair continues, not to forget to offer a prayer to Marie Jane so all goes well! ☺️🌹❤️
