A step back recently: Started a final flush (2 days in), and decided to start feeding her again - thanks to some great GD input! 250 ppm at re-start and will work my way to 500ppm? She's still rockin' along - like nothing happened. She topped out at 350 ppm without tanking PH, so she is stable here. PH is now swinging down fairly quickly last 12 hours. Drained off 1/3 of reservoir and get reservoir down to 250PPM. 5 days later, major PH swings down again. Mixed another fresh reservoir. I am using Zero Water 5 gallon system, and just realized the PPM coming out was 100, and PH at 3! If I am at 100 today, that means these filters have been shot for a while, maybe since start of my PH issue. There is also interesting information about when zero water filters reach their expectancy. They put out fishy smell and otherwise. I will be watching my filters more often and taking more notes since this ZeroWater 5 gal system is really the way to go if you are only growing a plant or two. Filters are a bit spendy but when you take time, gas, convenience etc. its a no brainer (if the water coming out is zero:) - I get about 15 gallons per filter (175ppm from tap). Day 70. It’s been about a day since new res change. Steady Eddie at 250 ppm and 6.2. I’ll let her drink the bucket down a good ways if things remain stable with a drift down. I doubt it though, 5 gallon is fine for 12” autos but at 2’ she really needed 8 gal. Time to up the R&D on the cabinet! Also checked Zero Water again and filter is now putting out 200ppm of 3.0 water. New filters installed! Hope she finishes soon, the top of her canopy slowly getting cooked over the last 10 days. 8" of light distance is too little. PPFD 2000+ at the top, but leaf temps are in the upper 70's. Gotta hit a decent DLI on these lower buds - without nuking the top nugs, right?! As the week concludes, she’s in a fresh bath, at 250ppm @ 6.0 and running stable again. New water filters installed so zero water variable removed. Last serving of half+ teaspoon of GH dry KB ripening, and will reduce ppm by 25/day until I reach 10-15%. 1-2 day flush, if at all.

Hi liebe Community! 🍀💚 In der zehnten Blütewoche ( Nach Tag 67) war es nun Zeit dass Prachtstück auf die Schlachtbank zu führen. Die Blütenbildung hat sich prächtig und sehr voluminös entwickelt. Nach dem Trichomcheck, ist nun alles milchig mit vereinzelten bärensteinfarbenen Trichomen. Sie lässt ein sehr undefinierbares Aroma verströhmen. Es ist weder Süß noch Erdig. Harzig nach Cannabis ja aber ohne klassische Aromagebung. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten waren Top. ————— 🌞 Temp: 24°C 🌚 Temp: 19°C bis 20°C 💨 RH: 56% VPD: 0,98kPa 😎 PPFD: 830 mqm ————— Grüne Grüße 💚

27/04/2021 (Day 42) Todo viene muy bien, las plantas están comiendo con muchas ganas y consumen unos 15L de solución diario. La preflora está comenzando! Ya se puede observar como van estirando y mostrando bastantes pelos! Los Citizen x 8 están trabajando a un 80% rondado los 500W. 28/04/2021 (Day 43) Se realizo un nuevo cambio de solución, las plantas ya están tirando pelos y los leds están al 80%, se observo un gran crecimiento radicular y las paredes del tallo son increíblemente gruesas y duras. 03/05/2021 (Day 48) Las plantas vienen con un crecimiento optimo pero la flora se está tardando demasiado en hacerse presente, se estima que es debido al estrés que tuvo en semana 3 de vege produjo un retraso de algunos días. Esta semana se incorpora Safe Roots al sistema con la finalidad de que deje la solución lo mas limpia posible. También se realizaron bastantes defoliaciones ya que no existía penetracion de luz teniendo en cuenta el tamaño que están ocupando (85% del espacio de cultivo a 30/35 cm de altura)

These ladies have been drinking up everything thrown their way which has caused me to feed/water them more frequently. They are still growing like champs and I anxiously waiting to witness the final result.

She only grew 1cm this week. She's really charging through flowering. Trichome production has been high this week. I wish there was a way to view the pictures in hi-res on a desktop pc instead of the small window. Timelapse this week is almost useless. No input from me other than watering/nutrients.

These healthy girls are starting to flower now and looking beautiful.Im going to do a bit more training and some defoliation to get more light penetrating down below.Se7000 still set at 50 percent light intensity raised to the ceiling of the tent and they seem to be really happy with it.Just about 2 more weeks I’ll start adding the Plagron Green Sensation along with another top dressing of Gaia green power bloom.

7/29 - Week 9 of veg is starting. At this point, it is just let them grow up a few inches, and also fill out the pots some more with roots before transplanting to 5 gallon fabric pots (their final homes). I also plan on mixing a 'flower blend' soil to fill up the 5g pot around the rootball that is transplanted. This recipe for the soil is taken from MaximumYield: Enhanced fruit/flower potting soil recipe This soil recipe is designed for plants that are ready to fruit or flower. In particular, this recipe works great for ornamentals that are already in bloom and for fast-growing annuals that are entering their fruiting or flowering stage. Parenthesis indicate small changes or products I'm using. 1/2 cu. ft. (60 cups) sphagnum peat moss (Promix BX) 1/4 cu. ft. (30 cups) coco coir (Mother Earth Coco Peat) 1/4 cu. ft. (30 cups) compost (either compost or manure) 1/4 cu. ft. (30 cups) perlite 10 cups pumice (likely to just use perlite here) 5 cups worm castings 3 cups bat guano (high phosphorus) 1 cup fish bone meal (using regular bone meal, got Jobe's Bone Meal) 1 cup oyster shell 1/2 cup seabird guano (likely to just add as the high phosporous guano) 1/4 cup alfalfa meal 1/4 cup fish meal (Down to Earth Fish Meal) 2 tbsp. langbeinite (Down to Earth Langeinite) 1 tbsp. glacier rock dust (Azomite ordered from Amazon) 7/30 - While technically the morning of 7/31, lights haven't gone out yet, so it is still the 30th ;) It almost hurts posting pictures today, because they were really thirsty, but I honestly hadn't looked at them for a couple days. Anywho, the plants were watered with ~1.25 liters of water each, about 90 minutes before lights out. Will be interesting to post the 7/31 photos after a couple hours of lights on, and see the difference in appearance. I also mixed the soil for flowering, and it will now have a couple weeks to 'cook' and become ready for the plants. I did make a mistake and accidentally added 1 cup of fish meal instead of 1/4 cup (oops), and the alfalfa meal just smelled too good, so I added 1/2 cup instead of 1/4. Hopefully those 2 'changes' don't add too much nitrogen for flower, but I imagine it won't. I also instead of adding perlite (didn't want to buy a 4 cu ft bag when I needed at most 2.5 gallons (1/3 cu ft), so I opted to add 1 gallon of pumice. Since the coco peat and promix both have perlite in them, I didn't want too much added. There were also some worms from the compost that made it into the tote that is now storing the mix, so life has already started in the soil. 7/31 - It wasn't just after lights on, as I didn't have time to photo earlier, but this is just about 24 hours after watering, and praying/looking good. I had noticed that it looked like the fan had slipped down the pole a bit, and was causing some wind burn/clawing of the leaves yesterday, which probably attributed to poor looks, but looking better today! While I am not that versed in checking preflowers, from what I can tell, if I had to guess, CH#1 could be either (maybe slightly leaning towards female, thought I might have saw a couple hairs), and the #2 actually looked male to me. 8/4 - After getting home from work, and realizing I hadn't checked on the plants in a couple days and I knew they were due for water either yesterday or today, I saw some THIRSTY plants. They each got ~1.2L of water, and also a quick trim back. After checking preflowers again, I am afraid that both Chinook plants may end up male :(

👋🏻☘️ Started low stress training this week a long with the first proper defoliation to provide more airflow and light coverage. Continuing to bend the main stems down everyday to help even out the canopy as much as I can before adding scrog net next week. Will switch to 12/12 soon. ✌️

used fishing lines to help Marshmallow OG holding its Buds because they get so heavy. temps variate on daytime between 21 -24 °C and RH of 45 - 55% nighttime its 18 - 19 °C and RH of 41 - 50% the plants are colloring purple and the terps are getting more intense by each day. Nutter Budder had startet growing 2 Nanas in 2 of its Buds. I think the Nutter Budder was more like a 9 weeker when the other 2 strains are more like 10 weeker

Hello Growmies! Here we are at week 15 with the Epic Buzz, and what a sight it has become. As the days pass, the natural fading is more apparent, showcasing an array of autumnal hues that captivate the eye. The aroma is intoxicating and undeniably strong, filling the space with an earthy and pungent perfume. This week, I’ve implemented a bit of drought and temperature stress, emulating the natural environment of autumn even further. It's a delicate process, but these beauties have responded with resilience, their colors transitioning beautifully as they approach the late stages of flowering. Each bud is dense and frosty, a testament to the careful nurturing they’ve received. The environment is controlled, but I’ve allowed for slight fluctuations to challenge the plants, encouraging them to harden and produce those precious, resinous trichomes. It’s a sight to behold and the anticipation for harvest grows daily. It’s all about patience and precision now, as each day could mean the difference between good and great. As we approach the harvest, I'm closely monitoring each plant, ensuring they're expressing their full potential. The resilience they've shown is remarkable, a sign of strong genetics and attentive care. They're a testament to the wonders of cultivation and the rewards of dedication. So, stay tuned as we close in on the final days. It's a journey filled with anticipation and excitement. The payoff is nearly at hand, and soon we'll be reaping the fruits of our labor. Stay lifted, Salokin!
