Beginning of week..
Forgot to update end of last week.. but here she is!... So this week she should still be stretching and (hopefully) the slowdown should be the following week.. she is doing good.. water, feed, water, feed, etc. But not daily.. I do water, feed, skip, water, feed, skip, etc. I do that so the day after feeding 1 gal., she gets a day to dry out. Then I water 1.25 gal. to help rinse salts and build-up.. then feed the next day again.. so she isnt left too long without a feeding.. but I'm sure things would be fine if I watered/fed daily.. just a bit of a hassle for me now.. collecting rainwater and cutting it with 25% crappy tap water works great.. but a hassle lol.. she is happy and so am I! You can see in the pics that the stiples are turning purple are red.. just the stiples.. not the leaves.. not the pistils.. also noticed that on my last run with ETHOS Cookies and Mandarin Cookies.. pretty.. hopefully she will be very colorful!
Almost mid week..
Wow.. literally no trichomes yesterday but this morning they are damn near on every bud site! Wow.. rubbing trichomes and sniffing gives me such joy and a hint of what to expect at harvest.. very sweet so far.. yessss! So excited!
Mid week...
Stretching quite a bit but she shouldn't get too much out of control. Running the WAKYME J-2000 at roughly 60% power and 12" - 14" above the canopy. She is receiving 1000 micromols at the center and about 550/600 micromols around the edges and corners are getting about 500 - 550 micromols.. entire plant is getting GREAT PAR! She is stretching so much that every 2 - 3 days, I need raise the light quite a bit.. I'd say she is stretching about 4 - 6 inches every 2 - 3 days. Fucking incredible, in my opinion. rubbing the trichomes.. aw man.. rubbing those GORGEOUS trichomes and getting a wiff of what she should be producing in the very near future is just mind blowing how complex and strong ETHOS terpenes are (at least the 3 that I have grown out). I couldn't be any happier with this strain.. or any ETHOS strain! ETHOS Genetics is easily in the top 5 of cannabis breeders, if not number 1.. I've got the OG Kush Autoflower waiting to be germinated soon.. can't wait to see what that girl can do, as well. It will be my first autoflower from ETHOS.. pics of her look EPIC AS FUCK!.. Anyways.. I'm just abusing my keyboard right now thanks to some Mandarin Cookies from ETHOS genetics.. super complex terpenes as well..
Mid week..
She got herself a good feeding today. The runoff pH has been coming out about .3 - .4 higher than going in.. the watering before today I went ahead and watered at 5.8.. runoff came out at 6.3.. perfecto! Today, went in at 6.2 and runoff came out 6.2... dos perfectos! Aye! So far, this girl is not disappointing at all! So much trochomes production just in the last 24 - 48 hours! Smells so freaking amazing!.. should be pretty fruity! I can't wait!!!
End of week..
I've been kinda tweaking the nutes a bit.. I can see all the nute burn (trying to avoid overfeeding) but still trying to transition from grow to bloom.. actually, I thinkI can go to full on bloom now. She isnt stretching as much anymore. She had slowed quite a bit.. but perfectly lol.. so yeah.. gonna stop feeding grow nutes at this point.. and also cut out the MYCO+ because its only used in veg and transition. I'm going to add in some FloraNectar to make up for the molasses that was in the MYCO+.. no bloom boosters.. at least right now. Runoff is coming out perfectly.. sometimes it may drift to 6.5 but it has never gone out of range (6.5+).. if it stays at 6.5 for too long I end up watering/feeding at 5.8 at couple times and its back down to 6.1 or 6.2.. other than that.. no issues! On to the next week!...

Day 70: Want to know how the trichomes are looking on my OG Kush, they look pretty clear to me but not 100%🤷♂️🏼 any feedback would be great, this OG is about 10 weeks old from seed, there was some temp issues, and nutrients locks but still going strong I believe.

Pretty nice plants! They enjoyed the higher amounts of nuts, even though they showed a bit of Nitrogen toxicity, nothing serious, a bit of 'claw' on the new leaves, but they seem to handle it fine so far.
They probably tripled in size this week.
They got topped the second time this week.
They are bushy with thick branches. I hope they will pick up a bit more on hight the next week!

Day 7 Veg: A great start for the ladies has been slowed slightly by leaving them a few days too long in their germination pots. I usually plant into the final.pot from seed bit uad to wait this time for space. They took a hit with transplant shock I think and a few deformed leaf sets have resulted. I think this will sort itself once the plants resettle bit with time being precious on autos , I hope its soon. One of the Banana Mash is a real mutant it seems with two odd looking leaves and a tiny bit of new node showing through.
The Purple monkey are all doing very well so far and rhe transplant has not hit them so hard. i also think I have a mango cream growing from a seed that popped out of the mango crop I did. lets see.
Be safe and free Growmies.

F week 7 started 11/23/24.
My power supply or lamp broke down 11/30/24. I fortunately manage to buy a new light system. I bought ViparSpectra P2000 250W. Now i've moved into the LED era.

Day 56 Jungle Jimmy / Day 57 Pink Cookies: Nothing to do today.
Day 57 Jungle Jimmy / Day 58 Pink Cookies: Nothing to do today.
Day 58 Jungle Jimmy 63 cm / Day 59 Pink Cookies 90 cm: Nothing to do today. The outside temperature are getting high right now, so the temperature in the tent increases as well. I hope I can manage to keep the temperature about 30° C. We are at day 19 after switching to 12/12. The bud development is quite impressive at this time.
Day 59 Jungle Jimmy 66 cm / Day 60 Pink Cookies 93 cm: Nothing to do today.
Day 60 Jungle Jimmy 68 cm / Day 61 Pink Cookies 96 cm: Nothing to do today.
Day 61 Jungle Jimmy 68 cm / Day 62 Pink Cookies 98 cm: Nothing to do today.
Day 62 Jungle Jimmy 69 cm / Day 63 Pink Cookies 99 cm: Nothing to do today.

Here we go... week 2!
Everything went pretty smoothly during germination and week 1.
I'm starting to think about nutrients, as i do plan to start feeding, VERY lightly, sometime this coming week. I figure my soil should probably be okay for 3-4 weeks but i'm going to be feeding only 2 of the 3 plants starting in week 2. I'll start feeding the 3rd plant in week 3. I want to see if there's any difference or problems that arise.
Day 8:
- Temp: 74-80F
- RH: 68-71%
- no water, reduced exhaust fan speed to 10% at night due to colder outdoor temperature.
Day 9:
- Temp: 72F-79F
- RH: 62-69%
- lightly watered with de-chlorinated tap water
Day 10:
I've now desgnated the plants as "L-1", "L-2" and "L-3", based on their germination and seedling stage growth, with "L-1" being the most vigorous.
- Temp: 72-76F
- RH: 65-68%
- Lightly watered "L-2" and "L-3" with a very weak nutrient mixture using Remo Nutrients' "Micro", "Grow", "Velokelp" and "MagNifiCal".
Remo's feeding chart recommends 6ml/gal for week 2.
I used .5ml/.5gal... 1/6th the recommended dose.
- "L-1" was watered with just dechlorinated tap water.
- Both adjusted to pH6.5
Day 11:
- Temp: 69-76F
- RH: 62-68%
- No water
- added sticky traps for fungus gnats, which have afflicted one of my girlfriend's orchids in our house. We've quarantined the orchid and will be giving our houseplants a few doses of BTI.
Crossing my fingers that they don't cause me any issues in the tent!
Day 12:
- no signs of fungus gnats in tent
- Temp: 69-77F
- RH: 62-68%
- No water
Day 13:
- no signs of fungus gnats in tent
- turned humidifier off
- ambient RH is about 60%
- Temp: 69-77F
- noticing leaf edges curling. Possibly due to high RH and/or over-watering.
- Calibrated pH meter. Was off by +0.3 pH.
- Watered lightly with pH adjusted tap water @ 6.4pH
Day 14:
- No water
- Replaced the 24" Sunblaster T5HO fixture with a 24" Sunblaster LED, which now makes two of them.
I plan on switching the 6400K T5 bulb with a 2700K bulb in the T5HO fixture.
Once flowering starts, I'll pull out the two 6400K LED fixtures and put in the 2700K T5 fixtures (I still need to pick up one more T5 fixture so that i have two, which i'll be placing at either end of my 2x4 tent as supplemental lighting).
- Distance to canopy (24w Sunblaster LED): 12"
- Distance to canopy (HLG Elite 360): 24"
- Elite 360 Light Intensity: 35%

8/12 (Day 56) - Well it’s a week and things are looking ok I suppose. Everything is staying in check and I’m feeding full strength and the plants seem to be handling it well. Drinking 4-5 gallons a day. I think the stretch is pretty much done so hopefully we can get some big juicy nugs to develop. These ladies are sooooo stick. I defoliate and 10 seconds later it’s like my hand is covered in stick glue, and the smell…sooo sweet. Like a tropical candy. Going to be doing probably one last big defoliation on these girls in the next day or two. I’m always plucking here and there to be honest. But seems to be ok. Thanks for looking!
8/13 (Day 57)- Did some very light defoliation on three of the plants, then the back right plant I ended up removing a ton of the lower growths and leaves. It needed it pretty bad I feel. She is a little behind the other plants but looking good none the less. Just going to continue to monitor and feed regulary.
8/14 (Day 58)- Started the morning with the flush and change of water and nutrients. Everything is looking good, going to leave them alone for a few days let the one plant recover and grow. All conditions are steady and constant.
8/15 (Day 59)- Just continuing to monitor and check for issues, feeding around a gallon or more every 4-5 hours. I am noticing more and more frosty goodness as the girls continue to develop!
As always tips and recommendations welcomed and appreciated.

So this week happened a little bit more.
All of them got their final BioTabs Mix. Each Plant 500ml of Water with 1g Bactrex and 20ml Orgatrex.
No more fertilizer now from the BioTabs Starterset, all they get now is BioTabs Bio PK 5-8 in flowering for thicker buds. Thought it would be a good idea to buy that, will see if it makes a difference.
And as you can see i did defoliate them this week also. So much more airflow, finally i can see everything and can worry less about pest and so on.
I just hope i didn't do it wrong or did too much of it, it was really scary just cutting off things which grew for such a long time, but i think for the first time it turned out pretty good.
In flowering week 3, when i give them PK 5-8 for the first time, i will also defoliate them once more a little bit when it gets out of hand again.
Since the biggest plant is about 45cm tall now i will start flowering soon but don't know yet when exactly, maybe a few days, maybe another week, until then they also had enough time to recover from defoliating and i hope everything will work out.
Would also be good to get about 5-6cm more on the other plants, so i guess i will do it around Wednesday, but i will see.
As you can see the scrog net is installed again, so this time i will pull them through the net and let it in for better division until the end.
Really looking forward to my first flowering phase and how they will stretch out, kinda scared too :D
See you next week :)
