Entering week 3 nice and strong, my big girl have formed 4 levels of branches, we can now see the fan leafs starting to get thick and shaped like Indica leafs. Both girls show such good resistance to drastic changes so far, I had to travel and got a friend to come over and give them some love, boy oh boy, for my surprise (as a newbie) the variations of humidity jumping from 45% to 80%, I thought the plants were going to show sign of stress, however they are as green as ever, leafs look nice and healthy!! I am having some difficulties in stabilizing the environment inside my grow tent since transplanting both plants into the 5 gallon smart pots, humidity is all over the place. I have to be constantly checking, turning the exhaust system on and off if I want to maintain the levels between 50 and 60%. Now, When I get up in the morning and check the thermometer humidity have been as low as 44% and as high as 77%, I am wondering if my light schedule is the problem…I have lights off from 12am to 4am and than lights on for the rest of the clock. If anyone (TheBudWhisperer help! lol) have some advice and suggestion please let me know! Happy Grow and Stay Lit Folks😎

Made it 67 days before the chop. •••03/21/2020 After a 6 day hang I've trimmed and started to jar cure. Had a total flower weight of 85 grams. Over all I'm pleased. Will update with a smoke report in about 3 weeks.

ITA: le piante stanno bene e crescono molto in fretta. Anche la strawberry lemonade è partita a pieno regime. Ho eseguito lst e defoliazione su tutte le piante eccetto per la SL. Da qui a pochi giorni conto di topparle di nuovo ed eseguire un altro lst. Al giorno 27 le piante hanno recuperato e sono state nuovamente toppate ENG: the plants are doing well and growing very fast. The strawberry lemonade has also started at full capacity. I performed lst and defoliation on all plants except SL. In a few days I plan to top them again and perform another lst On day 27 the plants recovered and were topped again

about 1/2 way through flowering now - Really enjoying this grow :) Purple hues are getting stronger each day. She is trailing slightly behind Peyote Cookies in Girth - which to me appears as though she may need some extra time to finish compared to PC and probably the rest of my summer crop as well - but I’m sure that it’ll be worth the extra wait....

SUNDAY 4/28: I plucked off some dead leaves and did some leaf-tucking and a little more training. I have high hopes for these F1's. When I had to remove a bunch of branches that would have produced a quarter pound of bud, it nearly broke my heart, but it looks like I'll still have a good cross-section of the potential genetics resulting from this hybridization.👍 I haven't seen any more nanners in several days now.😷 Daytime temps are still hovering around 87-90f, but I've got them sitting in 70-72f temps for 6 hours of darkness now.😁 I did a little video today and I'll take a few "glamour shots" tomorrow. MONDAY: Today I see a bunch of crispy leaves on several of them..guess I phuktup the PH again because they are getting fed everything they need. I douched everybody with 1/3 gallon including some boomerang, calimag, bembe, bud candy, and terpinator. No time for glamour shots... TUESDAY: Not much time today..just checked timers and temps, and changed out carbon filters. WEDNESDAY: Finally took some photos today after doing a little training. My best plant's leaves got all crispy, but only one one side of the plant..as if it was sprayed with something bad...buds still look yummy. What's really weird is that a Candy Cane, adjacent to that plant also developed the same problem, at the same time...but only on the branches nearest to this plant..(contagion?) THURSDAY: The 'contagion' seems to be spreading through the garden... I'm thinking maybe I completely PHuktup the ph when I added silica last time and didn't correct it?? Not sure...but it's sad..they're all gonna be less than photogenic for the finish... FRIDAY: I plucked some dead leaves and misted everybody with perfectly PH adjusted spring water and increased airflow in the tent. Also decreased the dehumidifier to 45% RH.

i was on holiday for 14 days and left the plant to its own (AUTOPOT takes care of that) and when i came home i was amazed. it tolerated the topping very well and is now twice as tall as it was two weeks ago. i topped it again straight away. so 4 times in total this time. if it continues to grow like this, it will be a monster in october. a few leaves are already bigger than my hand. unfortunately i broke one stem with light LST, which is why i'm not using the LST after all. i hope it recovers from the injury. 😵💪

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

Buds are just packing on weight now. I’ll begin the flush sometime in the next 7 days. I’ve seen just a few amber trichomes and still a few clear, so I’ll give them a few more days. Then a 10ish day flush then chop!

Day 42 FLOWERING: Good afternoon ( in the UK anyway) brownies. It has been a steady weeks bud building this week and outing imposters!. I have somehow managed to mix pits during the initial set up and have two ladies representing their opposite strains !!!!!. Doh The girl scout cookie #2 is actually the #3 Amnesia Haze and the #3 is the Girls scout #2 . I have suspected it for a while but they have failed in their ploy to fool me and their ripening phases have given thwirbruse up. Seeing how similar the #3 was to the #1Girl Scout and how close they were in finishing to each other too , it was way more evident now that the #1Girls scout looks ready to come out for her dark period . She has finished very quickly and i am in no doubt she is done with most of her pistils being a golden orange now. She has many small clusters of buds but is not going to win any yield cups I dont think. She smells so sweet and edible though with a sticky feel too. Her leaves have a really beautiful fade too . So e very nice colours among the cannabalising. I dont think the # 2 will be far behind in her finish either with her pistils starting to orange up now. Now that the #3 amnesia is correctly identified and in the right row , it is clear to see how they all look alike and are at the same stage in bud development. They are a 77 day (11 weeks) flowering period and are still in their bud building stage with a huge production in trichromes taking place too. Thet are so like Gorilla glue #4 in their look which can only be a good thing... The #1 and 2 are bigger than the @3 purely due to the lst I did . They both have medium sized colas for info ar al of their mains so hopefully will have some donkey dick buds covered in frost around week 9-10. Bud porn ahead I think. Normal feedings for these ladies for the upcoming weeks but the G.S.C are going to be fed with water a few days now to let them know its time!!!!. Be safe and red eyed folks. Until next time. tata

D-104 : Last week, I noticed a problem related to the calcium OR to the Ph. I didn't know if it was a deficiency or an excess. So I tried to just wetered girls with the right Ph and A bit more of CalMag 0.8 > 1.2/L. We'll see this week if It was the good choice. fingers corssed !

1/6/2020 - What a week! She is finally flowering for real and so I changed her nutrient schedule to "Early Bloom". Increasing FloraMicro and FloraBloom while decreasing FloraGro and adding Liquid KoolBloom. Despite their difference in height, they are the same distance from the light due to the awkward mounting of these lights on the ceiling of this tent. Currently sitting ~40cm from the light. This should allow room for the buds to grow up towards the light and benefit from the increased umols around 30cm. I also took the opportunity to remove select foliage that was more than 90cm from the light, mostly removing growth-tips and leaving the leaves to their transpiration duties. I still feel like they are crowding each other, but they do seem quite happy nonetheless. Thanks for stopping by the garden, and, as always, Grower Love. ~Spaz
