Hey fellow growers welcome back for week 7 update of my criticalpurple and pineapple auto grow! So the only real update to the grow operation is an air conditioner install! Which has made a major change in the climate and my girls are very satisfied with their new lifestyle!! Bud production is on the increase! I also installed pot elevators under all my ladies as suggested by Papa_T. To help get some air flow under the pots to prevent root rot. I just installed these tonight so I'll let yall know what I think of them. Here's the link if you wish to purchase them- https://hydropros.com/products/gro-pro-nx-level-pot-elevator?_pos=2&_sid=b71ac87f9&_ss=r. I also had to purchase a new Ph meter because I dropped my old one in the mixing bucket(of course)! So if you read last week it was a all water week. This week I threw the nutrients too them after a deficiency. I was fed up with deficiency problems so I wanted to see what they would take! The girls seem to love the feeding! Also the deficiency is neutralizing. So I've only had the one feeding this week. I will be watering tomorrow. 10/18/21 5ml- calmag 4ml- micro 6ml- bloom 1/4ml ph down Ph 6.35 Solution temp 73.1F 1003 ppm Still alternate feed/Water every four days at 1gal/plant. I'm going off of pot weight mostly but it seems like a gal every 4-5 days and they are happy with it. Critical purple #1- So this lady has turned into a power house! She was slow in veg but quickly has recovered! She is throwing on the bud quick! She is going to be a heavy hitter! To me she seems to be filling out and her aroma is starting to join in with her 2 week ahead flowering sister! She is also my 🌟 of the week for the second week running! Measured 28" tall Critical purple #2- Boy oh boy is this shorty packing some heat! With this being this little ladies 4th week in 🌸 The aroma this lady is throwing out is intoxicating🤤🤤!! She is showing a few amber pistols but tricomes are clear and still developing I'm still thinking about three weeks out. She won't be plucked till ready! I can promise that! Measured 18" tall. Pineapple auto #1- So big week for this lady also as u remember from last week I was pulling the tape off Sunday well I waited until Tuesday 10/12 giving her a whole 9 days and I would like to say my girl is knuckled up👊! She has recovered saving my future bud site. I know this is small for more seasoned growers but for me this is a major stepping stone. Other than that bud production is chugging along. Every day this girl is still filling in her part of the tent. Measured 32" tall. Pineapple auto #2- This lady has been my focus factor this week. She was suffering a nitrogen, magnesium deficiency with some possible light burn also. But she is recovering after some cal-mag. I will prob give her cal- mag every feed/Water till flush from here on out too keep her stable. Even with the deficiency she is still producing bud so no signs of stress at this point. Measured this lady out to be 37" tall. I would like to Thank all the growers for taking time away from your own beauties to read about mine. I really do enjoy my time on here viewing your diaries and learning with you all. I just have a passion for this and wanna do the best I can for my ladies. So if you see any improvements that I can make or suggestions u wanna make, or even just to say hi hit me up! Well till next week Best of luck and Happy Growing!😎🌱💚💪💪

No problems at all, they are still green and healthy. White Widow is close to harvest. Its pistils are still mainly white, but there are many milky trichomes. I want to do an early harvest, to make its sativa traits more dominant, so I think I'm gonna chop it down on Sunday or Monday. Sorry for the bad-quality pictures. Northern Light just started to flower like hell after defoliation, it was a good action.

Planta cresceu em repouso nas últimas duas semanas e voltarei a praticar o LST na próxima semana. Planta está crescendo em um grow com outras 4 plantas em estado vegetativo e uma em revegetativo. todas as outras 4 plantas da mesma semente não germinaram.

Really nice structure, which makes it easy to trim. The smell is delicious, will update once I try it.

Heeeey all! Sorry for the extremely slow update! The past few weeks have been crazy for me! 😱 This week I made a lot of defoliation and decided to be somewhat greedy. I'll let the plants grow a bit more so they'll stretch well during flower! So while I defoliate I'll allow the plants to recover properly! 💪 Near the end of the week I also made another mistake with Roko (poor baby! 😭). I broke another of the stems (the one that divided the plant in two, right in the middle) and I feared the worst! But so far the plant kept growing without any problems. I'm still thinking a name for my 4th baby, she has surprised me greatly and I didn't notice how many new branches had grown until I defoliated her and I'm sure she'll deliver some great buds! 😍 Anyway everyone, this is all for now. Thanks for reading this journal and soon I'll update the next week! 😃

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

11/20 Monday she’s doing really good she won’t need water today I moved the light pretty far away I may even turn the temperature down even more I am flowering three blackjacks in the other tent of the same size at 90 W with the Mars Hydro light so for the last week I may just take it down even more two weeks I smoked some after just drying it for two or three days and it is completely different from smoking blackjack. It is a very intense sedative smell. Smells like gum smells great, but I’m kind of astounded at how strong it is. After smoking just a little bit I was moving super slow motion. . . Took me over two hours to pour one cup of coffee. That’s how slow time became. It was greatest day of my life. 11/21 Tuesday. I just squeezed the buds a little bit and these are the most dense buds that I have grown in the three years that I’ve been learning to do this. The only difference is I used the Boombastic and I used fruit infusion by General hydroponics yesterday, so I really think that one nutrient supplement the Boombastic has made all the difference. I’ve never had that before. It’s so great greatest day of my life. 11/22 gave half gallon of water with nutrients and supplements 11/24 I gave her just plain water today. I think I’m just gonna do water for the last couple of weeks. She is looking spectacular really starting to take off now. I think she has enough nutrients in the soil so I shouldn’t eat any for the last couple of weeks I always put too much. 11/25 Saturday morning. I gave her a little bit more water this morning i’m going to keep her nutrient free I think for the rest of the grouch she only has maybe two more weeks and I don’t wanna make the mistake of doing this too long on critical. She’s doing really good. This is one of my best ones I think maybe two weeks more.

Things are moving fast! 🚀 Two out of three plants started showing their first signs of flowering early in the week, while the one that got “auto-LST’d” by the fan took 2–3 days longer to catch up but she’s finally there too!🌱 All three are now starting to stretch, and I’ve gently tied down a few branches with soft wire to keep the structure nice and open. Nutrients were adjusted just in time, and everything continues to run super smoothly. Can’t wait to see how these berry babes develop over the next weeks!🍓🌱

Had one with a bit of iron deficiency, slowed down the growth quite a bit but had no problems during flower

well, another week goes by and it's growing not like I expected hehehe but that's ok, living and learning, and for now I'll just wait for this cycle to end to start a new one and post it here and I'll tell you right away that I ordered a kit advanced nutrients starter and will test it on the new cycle. =D

8/23 All is well and a little distraction into oddness 8/25 satisfied with her progress in flower, no fade anywhere ever but this strain does not fade hard. Running her as long as she will go and keeping a steady supply of nuets to her, gotta love organic PS Zombie Quasimodo continues to build colas and first buds with a monster-cropped kind of look. Our little diversion into the odd is actually giving me ideas about monster cropping in the future, bud sites almost everywhere on the branches. pic later 8/28 D54 Still going and building bud Fed a 1 to 3 mix of biogrow and bloom nothing else The zombie is still kicking looking well if odd
