November 6, 2021 The Quick Critical is taking off!!! I started feeding some nutrients this week and she really seemed to like it. I could flip her to flower now, but I'm going to wait another 1-2 weeks so the other two ladies can veg longer (and to give the autos a chance to finish). Critical Sour looks like she is ready to start rocking, I expect to see significant growth this upcoming week. CBD Medi Kush is finally starting to look like a cannabis plant! I have no idea what caused the delayed growth in the initial couple of weeks, but she's seems on track now. Lots of good growth in the past couple of days. This morning when looking at her closely I noticed she is growing two stems. This is going to be fun to watch how she develops. I just hope she doesn't herm out later. Neither of the two Dr Bruce Banner seeds nor the one CBD Lemon Aid seed I tried planting ever popped. This is now a 3 plant diary.

week intel: its time to harvest top buds! because my base nutrients and one of boosters was salt based, i'll do flushing this week to get some relieve to plants in the last days stresses : flushing Drought stress via watering only one time with flushing this week feeding: day 1 : i flushed them with Advanced Nutrients Flawless finish and adjusted ph day 3 : no more feeding from now on day 5 : no more feeding from now on guide of the week : i harvest in 2 parts : first i harvest top of the branches and will let the lower buds to ripe another week then ill harvest the second wave. its crucial to get uniformed buds in terms of quality that you let the lower buds to get some extra air and especially light! then the pop corn buds quality will reach the top buds. my dry and cure style is this: 3 days of hanging upside down to get water activity lower to around 0.6 in 50% humidity and 26 C temp (i know its a little high but we are in a hot summer right now and i cant get it lower even with air conditioner) and then after 3 days of drying i remove leaves and stalks, trim buds and move them to jar for the rest of their life :D . and in the first 4 days of curing i open the jar door and let hem get some fresh air in the jar for about 5 minutes and close the jar door again, after 4 days of curing like that buds are smokable but they will get better as they getting cured about 1 month. im happy as hell with this harvest :D.

Its either that or beginning of tip burn. I dont think its tip burn though. 6.0 g MegaCrop / 4 L VPD is set at 23 C and 58 % rh Light is at 22 inches and lowering Sunday, April 12 Flower Day 7 To pinch new shoots in flower, or not?

She has really come along well! 😍 She was given Compost Tea yesterday and today was still fairly heavy so I skipped watering and just removed a few leaves to maintain light penetration, turned her pot and sat and chatted with her awhile! 9/15- Well she really must have liked that last batch of Compost Tea as she looks exceptionally vibrant today! She's continuing on her mission of stacking her flowers, which are developing beautifully and have a delicious sweet fruity aroma to them right now.

I'm staying on top of tucking leaves blocking light and turning her pot daily as well. 9/19- Four weeks of flower on the books! We're almost halfway there now, she's stacking her flowers tightly going into Week Five and she's looking phenomenal! 🤩 When I watered her today I added 1 tbsp/g each of Kelp Extract and Fish Emulsion (both liquid) to the 0.75g of straight de-chlorinated water she received, which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 74℉. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Die achte Woche beginnt. Sie ist schon weit aber noch nicht fertig. Daher bekommt sie etwas mehr Zeit. Die Trichome sind mir deutlich zu klar, also heißt es warten... Bud Rot😱 Schimmel Alarm👎 Musste die größte Blüte dem Schimmel opfern, leider war der Stengel und einige buds nicht zu retten 😥 Am Rest hab nix entdeckt 🧐

Son 2 plantas de esta genetica. Una es mas vigorosa que ptra, pero son muy similares en cuanto a su fenotipo. En esta semana ya notamos el engorde que se viene propiciando luego del overdrive. Tratamos de a poco ir bajando la EC para llegar 0.0 en el corte. La luz sigue baja procurando mantener una buena seleccion de terpenos y resina.

First day of week 4, the plants are grown big enough to top but they didn't develope enough side branches to start mainlining. I hope I can use this technique as soon as the plants recover from the topping. On day 4 just the first of the three shows sign of complete recover while the side branches still don't want to grow up. I fed the plants with a tea full of microbes and good organic stuff. End of week 4, the only thing needed for the lower branches to catch up was increase the height of the lamp. Now they are really happy looking forward to the second and last month of veg

June 13th - feeding PurpsBerry, Honduras x Panama, LSD and Panama Red this afternoon. There will be pictures. Dinner posted above. 5 gal / 4 plants as needed. NOPE, SOIL IS TOO MOIST... holding off for a day, wait and see ! (And it rained all nite !) - feeding Congo #3 x Bangi Haze and Russian Tzar Bomba tomorrow ( w/ Purple Dawn ) fingers-crossed - this coming week will see the tops of these plants, pulled downward to the ground, creating a rounded Bush. Kind of aiming the plants Northward angling past 45 degrees, it will invite the side-branches to become Colas. Thats the Plan for these 4 now that they are starting to thrive in the conditions June 14 - fed Congo #3 x Bangi Haze and Russian Tzar Bomba 1.5 gal/ea (Purple Dawn as well) ahead of the coming heat wave this week. - removed most of the key Fan Leaves

07/28: début de pré-flo je vais tester bactohemp avec c'est acide humique etc dans le prochaine arrodage/engraissage .... #29 07/29: 1L *avec une cuillère à thé de bactohemp. Espérons que ce première arrosage de 1L vas régler mon problème hydrique... prochaîne arrosage avec runoff. J'ai ajouté des tuteur pour que le plants donne plus d'énergie à faire grossir les buds que à porter leurs poids #30 07/30: bactohemp a eu un effet bénéfique il me semble que les sites floraux se mettent déjà a grossir :) #31 08/01: premier arrosage de 3L*engraisser avec "runoff" :), l'étape la plus stressante a mon gout quand grow des autoflo en indoor #33 08/03: grosse défoliation aujourd'hui #35
