I have to water this plant a ton! Hard to get the water to seep in. Going to be a tough one! Probably will start with low dose nutrients soon

now that the plant has fully recovered it is growing nicely, i will leave it for min. 2 more weeks before I flip to flower. I have decreased light intensity to encourage some stretch.

I think they are doing good so far.

This week the girls were getting a bit heavy leafed and sweaty. Getting into LST techniques, we went a bit crazy with the defoliation for some of the plants. Their growth seems a bit stunted so we moved them to the center to fill out the canopy with the bigger plants. Probably gonna have to veg a bit longer than we were hoping. Growth seems good though with some leaf tips yellowing. Hopefully it's just the old nutrient deficiency that should be now fixed. The canopy looks nice and even. The dehumidifier gets filled too fast, so we should've gotten a bigger one. Currently trying to keep the humidity at max 70% but we are struggling when the tank gets filled up. After getting two fans and still struggling with the airflow and sweaty leaves, we got a better third fan and stopped using the other two. We got a small greenhouse heater for our tent because we opened the window due to the growing humidity. It's winter around here. Main issues for the upcoming weeks seem to be getting the temperature and humidity in control before flowering. Right at the end of the week we installed our SCROG.

Okay, she’s still stretching (and she loves techno music as you can see 👅), but she definitely slowed down. Of course she’s not gonna fill all the grid, as I expected. What a pity! Now I just want her to grow a little more, especially those colas at grid level. If they don’t grow a little, I’ll get the worst colas ever! I’ve just bought a 600W COB panel with 6 Cree CXB3590 (3500K). It should be delivered next week! Can’t wait to try it, and finally give this princess the real power she deserves: DOUBLE SUN POWER!!!! 🤯 What do you think about this pheno? Do you think it will be that “strange” one? I love those stretching colas! 🤩 Day 70: Watering with 8L of tap water. Day 72: Feed @ 1ml/L, 6L of tap water in total. It’s very strange I’m using full strenght nutes with Dr. Grinspoon. I’m still alternating one watering with nutes and one without. Leaves are ok and pointing up to the sky, tips are perfect and colors too, so she should be just very hungry. This week I switched Biomassa with Florastimo. Florastimo increases the synthesis of natural hormones of plants, the metabolism and assimilation of nutrients, the production of essential oils and resins, and maximizes the production of flowers and fruits. Day 75: Watering with 8L of tap water. Runoff PPM is 700.

This week has been such a gift! I have learned so much about proper care for a plant I had no idea how little I knew sitting down and observing these majestic trees produce such a potent flower has really humbled me. Premium cultivars strain has shown resilient and self sustaining easy to grow traits that it is hard to mess up. (Which I’ve done a few times lol) Notice the trichomes (I put the zoom lens on and got up in there so they could be better seen the bud itself is slathered in them ! This is going to be an amazing smoke! Also looking at the structure of the bud it’s self it has volume very full bodied bracts with pistils throughout It’s just an all-around beautiful thing to observe

Week 2 in water

We don't hide behind a finger, nor behind a rolled joint nor behind anything, the Permanent Marker is the strain that has the most Hype at the moment in a few years and we also expect a lot from this one from Zamnesia. The cover of the seed pack alone is something spectacular, it seems to have been made by the best Street Writers. I know he is a master of Tattoo but here I see at least a minimum of past in Writing, in the hip hop sense of the term. If you only look at them a week ago it doesn't seem true, but when the plants start, they go and the Permanent Marken go like a rocket. In this diary you will find the plant worked with the techniques in this case the first topping was done, we cleaned everything else creating the Mainfold and we are going to work everything with the main lining. We are at the first topping and we have two mini branches growing. The other one you can find in the diary next worked without the application of techniques that involve cuts to preserve its speed. The comparison is the salt of the experience. We have started the Plagron fertilization program, we are in 100% organic configuration, the soil is recycled Promix + 1/3 fresh soil + 10% Perlite + RQS Mycorrhiza Mix (4gr in the mix, 1 gr under the small fiber pot). We are administering // 1 ml/l of Power Roots - 1 ml/l of Pure Zym - 1 ml/l of Sugar Royal - 3 ml/l of Alga Grow I have doubts about the compatibility of Pure Zym with mycorrhizae. If in doubt, ask the experts, don't mix too much at random. https://plagron.com/en Doubts about Pure Zym / Mycorrhizae compatibility have been dispelled, they can go well together according to Plagron experts. If someone tells you that enzymes eat mycorrhizae, which in principle may seem possible, explain to them that it is not true. https://www.royalqueenseeds.it/growing/452-easy-roots-mix-di-micorrhize.html Try this variety, it is a top strain of recent years very high level of thc ---- // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/12508-zamnesia-seeds-permanent-marker.html Brief description of Zamnesia // Here is a good opportunity to enrich your genetic library with another award-winning variety: Permanent Marker was crowned Strain of the Year 2023 by Leafly, thanks to its intense aromas, high levels of THC and its physical vivacity. Originally created by JBeezy and Seed Junky Genetics, our team managed to secure a cutting of this modern top cultivar, so you can grow it comfortably at home, whether indoors, outdoors or in a greenhouse. Permanent Marker fits perfectly in any environment! You can find the whole world of growing on Zamnesia and much more, take a tour of the site and you will find "all the best that nature has to offer" in various shapes and colors. The new strains are exceptional and the old ones are no less... p.s. for now zero Hermaphrodites, growers can you say the same? ---- // www.zamnesia.com

9 weeks and 3 days to harvest Not much to say until 3 are harvested and dried/cured Will update when the time comes.

To preface this grow. This is my second run ever and my first run on Coco DWC using autopot system. My first run I ran a basic amended soil with no real target for soil ph set. Just simply organic compost and about 12% castings. I ran full manufacturer's dosing recommendations on city tap with high tds to start with. I had some serious nute issues late veg early flower. I suspect the issue was compounded due to ph swing, high ec, over watering and ph rise in soil due to infrequent watering, as well as ph rise in reservoirs from poor aeration and no beneficial microbes. That all being said I have new targets this run mainly consistenting of monitoring and targeting of PH and EC. I was at a bit of a loss in regard to the ph rise in my resevoir so with some research I have decided to try out TorusHydro perfect ph inline edition for my 25g dwc reservoir. I am running RO water made by my smallboy 150ro by Hydrologic. I have noticed some manufacturers recommend daily water changes for Coco nute solutions. I am going to attempt to do new water as infrequently as I think is acceptable as reflected by total ec in my feed water. I am using week one solution target EC of 0.5-0.7 and PH 5.5-5.7 for germinating. I added some bonus photo's of a homemade grow room I constructed.

Beginning of the fifth week of flowering. One organic and one fertilized! Both sativas!

First feeding going well so far . Day 1 of lst. Lst going well so far.

Good Strain .. it's not the best of all. but the experience is worth it. 😀I think it's a great plant to test xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx x it's not the best of all. but the experience is worth it.

Week 13 - Flowering Week 4 The cycle look well advanced. All plants are producing quantities of pistils like the Royal Gorilla or Bubble Gum. Some aphids are still around but infestation seems under control. I sprayed Neem oil to repulse insects and defoliated. I added more nutrients in the soil (Palm Tree Ashes) and in Water: pk 13/14, flowering stimulator. Watering each 2 or 3 days 80cl/plant -Cal/Mag + Pk 13/14 + flowering nutrients -Cal/Mag + Bud XL + flowering nutrients -Cal/Mag + Over Drive + flowering nutrients Plants report: -CaliFunk the most advanced: flowers are frosty, resinous and getting thicker. But this plant is very short and only the 4 main buds are correct. -Royal Gorilla stopped to produce long pistil and started the final stage. -Ak 47 is flowering slowly, buds are long but not thick for the moment: elegant Sativa -Bubble Gum look great, dynamic and homogeneous flowering: well engaged -Green Punch after damaged is producing some flower + one bud…. -Sour Diesel is a pretty good surprise: interesting flowering: slow but progressive (Sativa dominant). The smell in the grow-tent is a strange and strong Mix between this 6 different strains.

i add back with full strength 750ppm day 31 (may 27): waterchange 8-16 micro bloom and 0.5ml/l green sensation
