🗓️ WEEK 8 (flo) - HARVEST WEEK (56° FLO) 💧 Midway through this final week of flowering, I performed a complete DWC reservoir change. I replaced the nutrient solution with plain tap water, EC 0.4 - pH 5.8. This flushing solution was maintained for 4 days, right up until the moment of harvest. 🌱 On the 56° day of flowering (day 84 from the dry seed), the plant appeared perfectly ready for harvest. The buds are dense and glistening with resin, nearly all pistils have browned and retracted, and the trichomes show a beautiful mix of milky and enough amber. Immediately after chopping her down, I removed all the large fan leaves and I've decided to dry these too as they are remarkably full of resin. ✅ DRYING PHASE The entire plant was hung to dry inside the grow box, which was kept completely dark with constant, gentle air circulation for 8 days. The average VPD during this period was maintained around 1.2 (approximately 20°C and 50% RH). Once this drying period was complete, I trimmed off all the sugar leaves. These resinous sugar leaves will be combined with the already dried fan leaves and larf buds, and I plan to use them to make cannabutter for edibles. ⚖️ DRY WEIGHT After the 8-day drying period, and once all the remaining small leaves and branches were removed from the buds, I weighed the final product: The harvest yielded: - 150 grams of dense buds. - 5 grams of finger hash collected during handling. For edibles: - 30 grams of larf. - A large amount of fan and sugar leaves. ⚠️ In the next coming days I'll update the harvest week with info about curing stage and a smoke review.

Food mix: 1L distilled water + 120g NKP food

Hello growers day 63 in the garden with crystal candy auto the girls are packing they look beautiful I’m still flushing and getting a nice fade on the leafs another week and they should be ready to come done the smell coming off these girls is delicious I’m getting very excited to try them I haven’t done anything this week besides giving water and that’s it so until next week be safe and happy growing ✌️

Right from the bat this strain was awesome, I would recommend potting up these plants or just keeping in a smaller container, they really really like to be in a small pot. I have another clone of the big pheno in flower now in a 1gal with coco and she is taking off like crazy.

So This week was the same as the last really, It seems all I have to do is sit back and watch these ladies do their thing! Ive not gone full on with the bloom supplements or PK yet as only 2/5 of the GG are seriously flowering. The other 3/5 GG are now Finally showing some signs of flower and some tops are starting to build and lowers producing more pistils each day! The Stardawgs continue to explode, even some friends who were sceptical about the performance of the Quantum board LED's have been flow away by the results. All of the buds seem to be building dramatically top to bottom which no shortage of frost! Macro shots on the way!!

she's a beast and has grown really tall just hoping the buds will fill out in the next few weeks, I grew this strain a while back but it looked completley different to this and was half the size, maybe that was because it was grown in soil ??

30.8.24: The plants are still developing very slowly. I may top dress with Ecothrive Life Cycle again, as it's taking longer than expected. So they can probably benefit from that. I overwatered all plants, there was run off. I watered 2 days in a row. There weren't any visual signs that this affected the plants. I'm not going to water, until the soil is dry enough to mix in the ammendments. I'm sill using the Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster, I have noticed that FBP1 and FBP3 have gotten more sizeable since using this product. It's hard to tell on my FBP2 as the buds are already huge. I have continued to defoliate today. I also moved the plants around to maximise light exposure. The branches on FBP3 and FBP1, were looking flimsy. So I tied a few more branches with string, to keep them from breaking and taking up so much room. 1.9.24: So today I added Ecothrive Life Cycle, Diatomaceous earth, also went ahead and added the Bat guano. I watered it in with 2 Tbs of Black strap molasses in 1 ltr of water, to each plant. Each plant also got 1ltr of water with 3ml of Ecothrive Flourish. Additionally I used 2ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster in 1ltr of water. I've noticed that there are new pistils are growing out of the top buds. I think it may be light and or heat stress. It's up to 30°C, at some points. The humidity is pretty stable at 40-50%. I've lowered the light intensity slightly, and am now using 2 fans on low settings. To try to get the heat to lower. 2.9.24: I've decided that stakes are necessary to FBP1 and FBP3. So have made some 70" tall. I also finally got round to cleaning out the bottom of the tent. It was a mess, so I disinfected it with F10. I didn't get any anywhere near the plants. The plants top soil had dried up overnight, I'm assuming the dehumidifier has something to do with it! It is is a great piece of kit. I watered each plant with 1ltr of dechlorinated water, PH'd to 6.0. Each 1ltr had 1 ml of Ecothrive Flourish. I don't want the microbial ammendments, to dry out and ruin it. So I'm thinking about watering just once a day, only 1 ltr per 5 gallon pot. Additionally my companion plant, Rosemary has some either; webbing or Mould on it, so I took it out of the tent, and will treat soil In that pot with a neem oil drench, and see what happens. I need to repot it, my mint plant in the tent also has exploded and needs repotting. 3.9.24: I've watered again, as the water is getting drank by my dehumidifier. Couldn't live without it though! I added 3ltrs of water to each plant included was;- 3ml per litre of Ecothrive Flourish, 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster. Dechlorinated to 6.2. Still haven't managed to add the extra plant stakes yet. 4.9.24 Today all the top soil was dry, and with my dehumidifier so close, I've added another 2ltrs of water each with;- 2ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster 2ml of Ecothrive Flourish 2ml of cal-mag. PH'd to 6.0. Had to add additional stakes in to FBP2 (my best pheno)! As the flowers are soo heavy, it's crazy actually. I've been using 6% silica, since the beginning. I am checking the trichomes daily through the jewellers loupe. They do actually still look clear / glassy. I'm glad I did top dress this week, as it looks like we're going to be going for a long while yet. 2-4 weeks. Ps. If I've made mistakes in this update, I'm 9/10 faded on my Royal Critical. 😅 5.9.24 I watered with 2 ltrs of water per plant PH'd to 6.0. For each litre, I added 1ml of Ecothrive Flourish and 2ml of Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster. I accidentally bent a branch on FBP3. I have taped it together tightly with duct tape. I also added more stakes to FBP2 as the flowers are getting super heavy, which is an awesome thing, as I was prepared for staking, and tying. Can't wait to taste these when they're ready to harvest! 🤤 Ps. I'm thinking of making up a new 5 or 10 gallon pot with a super-soil mix, I did that for this run, but now I know more about ammendments, hopefully it will be better this time. I'm going to leave the soil mix as per the instructions to cook / dry, before planting this time. Will update again 🙂

I am done topping plants gonna give them few more days before I transplant them again before I got to flower.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Have fun with the update. Hi everyone :-) . This week she has continued to develop very well.

Starting to get some nice frosty flowers. The cycling UVB has really made the terps start early. She is getting smelly which is great - a bit behind the others, but so far she is healthy and stretching well. Regular tea and water regimen and weekly nutes. I plan to add another layer of topsoil with nutes next week. Humidity control has been a slight issue. After watering I am typically hitting 80 - 85 rH - so will need to watch this. I could open the grow room door to reduce the rH but then I lose the CO2 buildup. Will stay the course for now.

8/23 shes smelling so much like blueberries💚 im super concerned with the amount of leaves my plants are cannibalizing/ losing. They've been turning yellow and then eventually golden brownish crisp and fall off. The leaves that are falling off, only seem to be fan leaves and all the leaves around the pistils/main parts of branches/plant, all seem to be intact and very healthy still. I hope she's able to stay healthy till the finish of the grow. First outdoor grow. Learning experience 💚🤘I should have added some fish meal in the middle of July so she had some nitrogen for the beginning of flowering. I'm concerned the leaves lost is due to nitrogen deficiency. But I'm 3 weeks into flower and dont want to confuse her with more nitrogen than I have been giving 8/24 fed some more open sesame. 8/28 thinking my plants have been having a ph lock out causing magnesium deficiency

OK so this week I have officially changed yje light cycle and have been running a 12/12 and will of course carry that on now until the end if we get there. The food amounts have now changed on to flowering amounts and even though the plants are different in size they both look really well. I have started to feed them both the following Micro 32ml Grow 12ml Bloom 48ml Ph is 6.0 These amounts are based on 20 litres of water. So I am hoping to see changed and some flower heads popping through (I hope). Let's wait and see what happens as again this is my first 12/12 run. So really hoping for the best here lol. Peace out growmies

( 3cm in height ) Looks very healthy with a thin fragile stem. Only developed the first pair leaves. ( 3cm in height ) With the delay of the germination this lady has been slowed down. First pair of leaves are developed but are still small.

Last week plants grew very healthy, as they got bushier the humidty raised providing a better enviroment, I could even reduce the amount of water I give them. Planning to move to flowering stage very soon.

Caught up... things are going well, Bruce stretched like crazy and has evened up its canopy to the others idk if it's that big bud in it or what. Lilac has looked a solid week and half ahead of the others since flower, she looks wicked though, trichromes are starting to build. I've done my last training, I usually go hard on thinning but I'm trying to be conservative and only uncover buds under leaves. Still same feeding routine.. looking forward to the finish line but know this is an important time with terms and trichromes beginning to resonate... I sick at this guy's but I want to get better at chronicling my grows.. so hourly I will improve in the process of Journaling.
