The plants are looking really healthy, I've been defoliating here and there to get the light to penetrate to the lower leaves and branches. They have started to bush out from topping them last week. I started using Mammoth P Microbes halfway through last week. They seem to have grown a little quicker since adding them. The plants are still being fed 4 times a day at 1 minute each feeding. No signs yet of which is female and male, I am planning on pulling all the males once they show signs.

Got everything hung up. Stripped the fan leaves and broke down into sections. Run 60/60 or as close as i can get until the stems snap.

8/22 - There has been some explosive growth among my 4 purple Microdots. They are growing by leaps and bounds each day, 8/23 - So far everything is going smoothly. Just watering each day w/ RO water and organic black strap molasses. 8/24 - Brewing up some compost tea. This will be there first! As they start to get a little bigger I've made a prediction for sex. I think A238 & A239 are male and A240 & A241 are female. We'll see! 8/25- Fed the ladies with the compost tea and used it as a foliar spray as well. They responded very well and continue to have crazy, rapid, growth. 8/27 - They have gotten so big and bushy. I'm going to start a little LST on them today! 8/30 - They are starting to show sex! Still can't tell whether it's male or female...but it should be any day now!

I felt things were going well, and didn't want to jinx it.... however my time has come for the next level of challenges. This week things were looking great, but then I saw some leaves having discolored spots. I looked under the microscope and saw it was the leaf, didn't think much more of it. Next day, more spots, so I investigated. looking again with the microscope, I found the devil! Spider mites! So, I sprayed greencleaner on them at light shutoff... and the following day plant does not look too good. Looks dry and light burned. So I moved the lights up, they were not a problem before and the plant had stopped stretching this week. hopefully I this will go away, but I need to spray tomorrow to keep with the schedule, hope it does not dry out y plants as much this time! However looking at the bugs again, they are dead! I also lollypopped the girls, however since I am a noob, I could have trimmed more, but it makes me nervous of taking off too much, so maybe a few days I will take some more off, or just watch the dead leaves closer, and will clear daily...

Realmente muy feliz con lo obtenido, 307g en 0.8me me parece genial, estas flores tienen un aroma genial entre el típico haze mezclado con cacao, un efecto muy agradable y confortable, rica al fumar y muy poco picante gracias al lavado de raíces con flawles finish 👌👨‍🌾🏻 Totalmente recomendable esta genética de royalqueenseeds muy agradecido por la oportunidad 👍👌👨‍🌾🏻

well everything is going well without pests without at least not noticeable or minimal deficiencies surely, which leaves us calm, potassium soap and neem oil were purchased but it was not applied at the end, it will be the next one, after this pruning work a new one was installed scrog mesh and as you can see we also did with some or one at least the 2nd largest an attempt at sog, so it's like a mixture, then this big ugly mesh, we change it for an ideal girl what we want is that it doesn't grow too much in that The mesh helps us, well, we also change and go to flowering officially when we see that the plant is already flowering by itself, we spread a little so that the small 5 small pots grow a little more, the intensive pruning is to compensate for the ventilation that The temperatures may still be somewhat high, the air circulation in general, my closet is 60x60x160cm, so it comes in handy, it seems to me that we have carried out a good sativa plant by taming it in such a small space and it is I am proud, in addition to having the other copies as well, I hope I have taken advantage of the space and the light as best as possible, that was the idea.

Disaster this week, my feed pump got air locked for 12 hours and the front 2 plants wilted heavily because of it. They to have recovered but it’s pissed them off...yield will be affected. Started the swell and supa sticky from CYCO their weight gain and resin builder products. 3-4 weeks left and they have a lot of work left to do!

Well, marking the first week of flower. Lots of pistils, flower has begun. Just wildly hot weather, 33c days, full sun every day, we've had 6mm of rain in 2 months, average rainfall for June / July should be 60mm. As much as I love the weather, climate change / water scarcity worries me. Luckily we have a good clean glacier fed reservoir with strict water restrictions in summer. Made a compost tea in 5g bucket, compost, molasses, kelp, Epsom, some coir, and aerate for 24hrs. Removed some inner nodes not catching up to the cannopy, and some lst clips for the tallest nodes. Cannopy is looking really great and FLAT! Drones the only way I can get up there to see, must be pushing 7ft easy by now. Stalk is insane, biggest i've ever grown, going to need a chainsaw to remove it! Fingers crossed for a dry August / September. Hoping weekly spray of LCPT will keep Botrytis away, last fall we had 98% humidity, not much hope with that!

It's not been that bad a week for this one, she hasn't done overly well in the battle for space and hasn't quite managed to grow as tall as the other 3 plants by about 10cm. She has been in 12/12 for the majority of the week. Back soon. Take it easy.

70 days from seed!!! wow I just confirmed once again that Zamnesia seeds are not bad :) the girl is growing really well despite the lack of space, high humidity, the girl just ignores all this and does not pay much attention to it and focuses all her energy on the maturation of the flowers, which are really very stiff ;) Plagron nutrients also worked flawlessly throughout her growth, this is my first growth with these nutrients :) I am happy that they are there, I will definitely use them in the future :) well, there is not much left until the harvest, Good luck to everyone in the competition and in your cultivation :).

Last days for most of them - only Strawberry Cough will stay longer - she is super hungry and I can not keep up with feeding her - most of leaves are yellow now. 😱 The rest - four plants will be harvested on the weekend - 2-3 days from now and frozen - I'll be making bubble hash and fresh frozen live resin from them in the following weeks 😈 Trichomes are mostly milky with some amber starting - ideal ripeness and time to freeze those glands
