This week went well. She finally got some good size to her and should be done stretching as the week ends. I did a slight lst on her and opened her up a little. She recieved a good soaking today amd shouldn't need topped off till mid to late next week. She isn't so much a problem child anymore.

Well I thought for sure I was going to harvest a few days ago. Looks like it’s going to be one more week. Only getting pH water at this point and no nutrients. Starting to get a little color shift in the leaves but nothing crazy. Bud is dense and smells absolutely amazing. Slight bit of a Fox trail going on but not bad at all. Turns out I was very lazy and never raised my light up for 3 weeks and they were getting 1,000+ PAR at the tops for 18hrs a day. A few more days till she gets cut.

Looking great. Continuing to defoliate and un-shade some bud sites, but with a light touch. On 2/6 Top dressed: 1/2 cup bokashi, 1/2 cup build a flower, 1/2 cup fresh ground malted barley, 1/4 cup BAS craft blend, 1/4 cup alfalfa meal. Split this between the two containers. The worms are loving it and the soil mites are feasting.

Beginning of week... Heat stess.. Light burn.. Runoff pH is out of wack.. But the colas are still so freaking massive! This will be the last week of feeding.. Then flushing for 2 weeks!.. FloraKleen is waiting for me already lol.. But the trichomes are already looking pretty close to being ready.. From what I can see.. There are about 50% cloudy/milky and 50% clear.. I can find an amber here and there.. But I think I've got this timed out perfectly!.. Cant wait to taste these super fat, dense, fruity smelling nugs! Damn she is doing magical things even after the abuse she has endured.. Awesome strain ILGM.. For sure... Mid week.. Found a few nanners here and there.. Ugh.. Understandable tho.. All the heat and light stress.. Whoops.. No seeds that I can see yet.. Just going to finish up this week by feeding at only 50% and pretty much cutting out almost 100% of Nitrogen. And not sure why.. But aldo added some Vitamin B Complex.. Its a sublingual liquid that you put under your tongue for energy or some shit.. I only put .25 mL/3 L.. Again.. Idk why lol.. Now that I have cranked the power of the light down, the leaves have kinda slowed down on the suicide rate lol.. Not as many are trying to curl up anymore.. Still kinda curled.. But they have actually opened up a little since. She is looking pretty good.. Still been watering/feedingnat 5.8 pH and the runoff is barely coming out at 6.3 pH still.. Once I see it go down to 6.0.. Then I will make the proper adjustments needed to try and keep it at 6.3.. But still no stress frok this weird pH issue crap I got goin on.. I just need to get some new coco/perlite and a new fabric pot.. Good thing I have already got all that stuff stocked up! But this has been an interesting grow for sure.. I'm ready to chop her down and see what she tastes like! And start a new girlie of course! Lol.. But as for this week.. I will have one more feed day and I am just going to do it exactly how I did today, then begin the 2 week flush! Trichomes are exactly where they need to be.. Even the trichomes on the foxtail calyxes are gettin there pretty quick too.. As far as I can tell so far... Awesome strain from ILGM.. Awesome as fuuuuck! Lol End of week.. Since I've turned the power of the light down, the leaves haven't been dying off like I thought they would be because of all the heat stress and light burn.. But tomorrow I begin the flush! Today was not a feed day so I guess I already began lol.. I used rain water (7.0 pH 30 PPM) but of course I pH'd it down to 5.8 so that the runoff would come out 6.3.. Idk why this isn't clearing out.. But tomorrow I will use the FloraKleen in pH'd rain water.. This week I may water in the AM and the PM to help flush out medium quicker. Gonna try and use just rain water for the flush.. If I run out of rain water I will use distilled.. Either of the 2 should be a good choice! But I'm so excited to be harvesting soon! On to the next!!!...

So nach 66 Tagen war es genug ! Es wurde geerntet. ✂️6️⃣6️⃣ ✅ Die trichome sind zwar immer noch nicht komplett milchig, aber die Dame zwittert wieder mehr und daher kann ich mit halb trüb auch gut leben. 😁 Mit der langen Reife hat sie auch Fuchsschwänze gebildet und sie ist mir insgesamt zu blättrig...

@FAST_BUDS, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this new secret CBD plant from @FAST_BUDS, will turn out. .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Update 2017-08-15. Both seeds have germinated and planted in small pots inside the humidity dome. I'm so glad it worked so well and now it's just hoping they'll start growing and become 2 big healthy girls :) ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Update 2017-08-16. I have mixed my own soil today. Its 40% sieved peat harrow H2-H4 0-30 mm, 45% sieved peat harrow H4-H6 0-30 mm. 5% sand and 10% of compost soil. And i use 15% of perlite and mix it all together. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-21 The 2 sisters are doing great, Nr2 is a bit after Nr1 . Some new pics. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-23. Transplanted from humidity dome and the small germinating pots to 15 liter autopots. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-08-27. The girls have settled in to there new home of the 15 liters autopot after a little transplant chock. Now the real week 1 starts for me and the girls. 4 new pics. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girls. Its no water for 3 days now so the roots develop more and match the plant above the soil. The temp controlled fan is awesome, its easy to set what temp you like to have in the room. Right now its 28 celcius. And humidity is 56%. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics with measurements and a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. New video of the girls. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and videos. Gave each of the girls with 2 ml Alg-A-Mic, 4ml Bio-Grow, 4ml Bio-Heaven and 10 ml Formulex mixed in 2 liters of water. I hope they like it :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-02. New pics and the girls liked the water and nutrients yesterday. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-03. Video of the girls this morning. Kl 16.00. Did some defoliation on the girls. Videos added. KL. 23.00. New video.

My Rainbow Saltz plant is a medium-sized beauty in the tent. It's got really nice, healthy leaves and an incredibly strong aroma already. I'm excited to see how it develops! Okay, This past week has been absolutely fantastic! The weather has been incredible, and I've been able to keep the windows open almost the entire time. My plants are thriving in the humidity, and the VPD has been perfect. Everything just feels so balanced and in check.

Day 22: AIW The plant starts to release a very nice odor. Day 23: A secondary topping was made to the 2 shoots coming off the 3rd node. The plant was watered and fed with 3ml fertilizer + 1ml Cal Mag in 1 liter tap water. Day 24: The mature leaves start to show some yellowing. Wondering if there's some deficiency...? The light was raised 5cm. Day 25 The plant was watered and fed with 7ml fertilizer + 1ml Cal Mag in 1 liter tap water. 2 Secondary shoots were topped. Lower fan leaves were trimmed. Day 26: I decided to feed more often, but with lower concentrations. The plant was watered and fed with 3ml fertilizer + 1ml Cal Mag in 1 liter tap water. The 2 main shoots were topped once more. The plants grows about 2cm/day. Day 27: AIW Day 28: AIW The plant was watered with 1 liter tap water. 2 more 150W LEDs are now in use, for a total of REAL 600w. The temperature with lights on reaches 30c The plant is now 22cm tall.

She's really starting to smell like lemom drops and french vanilla ice cream. Her run off water seems to be coming out alkaline even watering with tea at a ph of 5.4 she is handling it like a champ . Next soil build will include much less bone meal, crab meal, and crushed oyster shell depending on my harveat reaults, hopefully she stays looking healthy and strong!

🌱 VEGETATIVE (4 weeks) The Runtz seed, placed in a root-riot cube within a DWC net pot, successfully sprouted by day 4, under an 18/6 light cycle (50W at 50cm). The first week saw the seedling establish itself, with roots extending into the DWC reservoir. During the second week, despite slightly low humidity and temperature, the seedling demonstrated robust and rapid growth. Light intensity was increased to 75W. Towards the end of this week, I removed the first set of true leaves as they were growing too close to the substrate. The third week marked a noticeable increase in the plant's water uptake (1 LT/day), which prompted me to raise the nutrient solution's EC to 1.0. The plant showed significant development while maintaining a compact stature – a trait I appreciated. In the fourth and final week of vegetation, as odors began to emerge, I installed a carbon filter, raised the EC to 1.2, keep the pH in the right range and boosted the light intensity further to 150W. By the end of this phase, the plant was bushy, compact (21 cm height), and healthy. 🌸 FLOWERING (8 weeks) For the first week I switched the light cycle to 12/12 and introduced a new nutrient solution adding Power Buds to the mix. During the second week I was impressed to see preflowers clearly visible as early as day 10 of flowering. So, during the third week I made a substantial defoliation session to manage the plant's increasing bushiness, which I knew would be crucial for later-stage light penetration and humidity control. In the fourth week I introduced a PK 8/9 booster, Green Sensation, thereby increasing the phosphorus and potassium concentration in the solution, water consumption around 3 LT/day. Towards the end of the week, I performed another significant defoliation, including the removal of lower, light-starved branches, to which the plant responded well. During the fifth week the stretching phase concluded, with the plant reaching its final height of 69cm. Its focus shifted to bud development, and the foliage began to adopt a darker hue. At this point, my role was primarily to maintain stable environmental parameters and a correct pH in reservoir. During the sixth week buds were visibly swelling daily, the plant remained in excellent health, and resin production became more pronounced. For the seventh week I implemented a change in feeding, completely cutting the nitrogen from the DWC solution, using only Green Sensation at a higher concentration. In the eighth and final week of flowering (week 12 overall), I performed a complete DWC reservoir change. I filled it with plain tap water and maintained this for 4 days leading up to harvest. On day 56 of flowering (84 from seed), the Runtz plant appeared perfectly ready. The buds were dense and glistening, pistils mostly browned and retracted, and trichomes displayed a good mix of milky and some amber. Immediately after harvesting her, I removed the fan leaves, deciding to dry these as well due to their remarkable resin content. ✅ DRYING The entire plant was hung to dry inside the grow box, which was kept completely dark with constant, gentle air circulation for 8 days. The average VPD during this period was maintained around 1.2 (approximately 20°C and 50% RH). Once this drying period was complete, I trimmed off all the sugar leaves. These resinous sugar leaves will be combined with the already dried fan leaves and larf buds, and I plan to use them to make cannabutter for edibles. ⚖️ Dry weight After the 8-day drying period, and once all the remaining small leaves and branches were removed from the buds, I weighed the final product: The harvest yielded: - 150 grams of dense buds and 5 grams of finger hash. For edibles: - 30 grams of larf and a large amount of fan and sugar leaves. ✅ CURING For the curing process, the dried buds were placed in a large, airtight glass jar. This jar was stored in a dark location within a room maintaining a stable temperature of around 20°C for a total of 45 days. The burping schedule was as follows: Day 1-7: twice daily for 10 min. Day 8-10: once daily for 10 min. Day 11-14: every other day for 10 min. Day 15-21: every 3 days for 10 min. Day 22-30: every 4 days for 10 min. Day 31-45: No burping. 📑 SMOKE REVIEW - At 15 days cured a vegetal note is still quite present and the smoke is a bit harsh, typical for a short cure. The effects are already pleasant and potent, very promising. - After 30 days of curing, the Runtz has improved considerably. The vegetal smell has mostly faded, giving way to a much more defined sweet and fruity fragrance reminiscent of candy and berries. The smoke is noticeably smooth, euphoric effects are dominant. - At 45 days, Runtz has expressed its full potential and is now perfectly cured for daily enjoyment. The aroma is intense and complex, an explosive mix of sweet candy and tropical notes. The effects are potent, starting with an uplifting cerebral euphoria that evolves into a pleasant body relaxation, without leading to couch-lock. 🍕 I also made cannabutter which I used to finish a risotto. The result was insane – both the risotto itself and the potency of the cannabutter were exceptional!
