Well, here we are. 12 weeks of training, topping and pruning, she is filling the net and and in good shape for flowering. I will be making the switch to 12/12 today, so this was the last week of veg for this girl. Since going into the larger tent, she has had much better light, and she has responded with lots of new growth. She has been screaming for more nutes. Currently feeding Megacrop at 6g a gallon. I use R.O. water, and total EC of the Megacrop along with Cal Mag is 2.0, which is quite high (I think it is anyway, I've only grown autos before), but the solution in the Autopot trays is still reading 0.3 EC lower than the res, and there is not a trace of burn on her. I really have no idea how far I can push a plant of this size, so I'll let someone else tell me if this is too high. I estimate that by the time I've added Bud Explosion into the mix, the max EC at peak is going to be somewhere around 2.2-2.3, at which point I will be starting to lower N levels and will be dropping from there on. I'd love to hear input from anyone who has some experience with plants that have had longer veg times as to whether these levels are considered 'OK'. She certainly seems happy enough and is thriving for now, and I've been letting her guide the nute levels from the color of the leaves rather than sticking to a feeding calculator. I'm estimating a flowering period of 10-12 weeks, which goes well into UK summertime, which means it going to be super hot in the daytime, so I'll be doing the lights off period during the day, and lights on overnight when it's cooler and I can max out the Kingbrite without overheating the tent. Also, having only grown autos before, I've never had to worry about light intrusion as I just keep them 24/0. I never appreciated how much of the shit in the tent has little bloody lights on it. Had to go round taping up LED's on a few things to make it completely dark. I've also put the monitoring cam on the same timer as the lights, as it has an infrared sensor, so the power to the cam is cut at lights out. I've kept a fairly detailed feeding summary on a spreadsheet. As this grow seems to be going fairly well (so far) I may go back and update previous weeks with a bit more detail in case anyone is interested. tl;dr Flipping to 12/12 this week, growth good, girl hungry, Bud Explosion gonna be added to the mix this week, starting around 0.5g a gallon. Happy days :)

Bud weight continues in week 4 of flowering…I don’t know if it’s the location or the strain but these buds are really big for 4 weeks….can’t wait for harvest in 35 days.

Well these girls are ready to be harvested week 9 day 0 - total growing seed to harvest 63 days for sid frosty purple buds that are definitely packing weigh for such small plants , Growing these girls have been really super easy and as simple as watering , I did stress these girls out definitely, resulting in my stress creating the biggest plant at around week 4 a hermi and had to be removed this wasn't anything related to the strain or seedbank I do take full responsibility for the hermi . Colours around the top buds have lovely purples are green hues frosted in white resin , these are frosty 👌 , Okay these plants have grown that good I've ordered more for the next run to try these girls again as they amazing, Girls scout cookie's from @zamnesia have become my top 3 strains grown if this girl wins any awards it would become the second best in my growing time for convenience of growing for results of these type of dense indica nugs are bigger than golf balls and look amazing 👏 Using ripen and will harvest on day 63 , normally I grow my plants untill I think harvest time is due thoe I never chop early as I made this mistake once so bud devolpment is what I watch most the bottom buds must be firm and ripe not just the top buds as this is what leaves the popcorn crap , underdeveloped buds and absolutely a waste of time Moving to LED was harder than I though 😪 Watering mistakes and light intensity stunning growth of plant without question I lost alot of yeild but still gained enough to make it affordable and quite enjoyable. Will only start fading plants in there last week now I've done some of the girls way to early but learning is everything . Please like and follow I've 20 new plants starting this week One plant is super small but stacked some of the biggest nugs in the room with purples and greens frosted in white its grew fantastic The other grew naturally and would be great in a SOG 10 liters , big frosted nugs , literally waiting on the bottom finishing up and the buds becoming somewhat firmer and more ripened , no point cutting early at this point

Week 5 - Another week has flown by! The girls are doing great, cruise control this week as I have just been monitoring RH and temps. Trying to keep them as low as possible, I’ve been getting as low as 82 during the day and 72 at night. It’s been creeping up and down for the past couple of weeks. I’m thinking of ordering a T8 Cloudline from AC to really suck that air out… I finally took a look a look at the trichomes with my jewellers loop and wow, just wow. Already popping with some long stems and big heads! These girls just keep getting better and better. They are also really starting to show their pheno differences, and similarities. 3 of them have very similar terps, and slight variations, and one is distinct in both smell and look.

Water is 5.8 - Run off is perfect until I water 2 days later then it's 6.4-6.6 Trichomes still clear maybe 5% milky. I have the flawless finish so will only need to flush 1 week prior to snipping.

Getting some clawing on some of my leaves. I honestly can't tell if this is from the fan. I have a large fan inside of the tent which may just become a house fan. I can't imagine what it would be like with four plants in there with this fan. I've upped my nutrients back to 4/4/8 ml/Gallon. I'm needing to water nearly twice daily. I'm debating adding in just some plain water to wash some of the salts out now that i'm at the half way mark. I may do this tonight. Today marks day 36! I am so proud of how well these plants are doing. They're requiring minimal training and I have defoliated some leaves and any dying leaves underneath. My biggest plant now has it's own light as it's quite a bit taller then the other two. The main kola is very close to the light. It's not flowering as heavily as the others though I suspect it will be my largest yielder. Thanks for checking out my grow!

Everything is going well, plants are healthy, I did a successful HST, waiting for the bloom, lights are already on 12/12. As soon as we show sex we start the bloom. Everything's fine already.

📆 WEEK 13 🌱 Plants: The indica-looking pheno (the one on the far right) has a sweet kushy smell. The middle plant has the classic RuntZ aroma, and the plant on the far left has a distinct Gelato smell. Honestly, I wish I’d kept a clone of the one on the left instead of the indica-leaning one, but that’s just how it goes - I chose the one with better root growth, and how that’s translating to buds and flavor will be revealed soon. The one on the far left smells like a clean Dairy Queen cooler, flat Z terps, just a really clean scent. It’s wild that they all started with a rotten-lemon smell and evolved into such different profiles. Typical F1 generation behavior. 💧 Hydroponics: Full solution swap today: water came in at 6.6 pH and (yikes) 0.4 EC. Added 5 mL pH down and 8 gallons of Heavy 16 Flush Week to the 8 gallons of water (this is the one time I stick to the manufacturer schedule). Enviornment: Lights are all the way up; the tent thrives best when I can manually breathe it, otherwise it starts messing with its own humidity and CO2 levels. ⚙️ Equipment: I temporarily lost access to my online drive with the feeding schedule spreadsheet, which is way easier to digest than manually calculating feed per gallon and how many gallons I actually used (since I never feed full-strength manufacturer nutrients). This week was simple though - the buds are deep into swell, so I’ve started flushing. ⏳ Timeline & Outlook: The flush will be swapped for pure water sometime this week while the tent’s lights are OFF, which I think is a critical step. If we’re still pulling salts after the pure water flush, I’ll swap it out for fresh water based on the nighttime readings. On 4/4, I’ll swap the solution to water only at night. Then on 4/7, I’ll swap the water flush for a fresh water flush at night. The target harvest date is 4/14, depending on how the flush is going and how the foliage burn is progressing, though this could shift by a few days.

Muchísimas producción, no pese en verde, más que nada no me dió el tiempo ni las ganas... Fue una cosecha demasiado extensa y lenta, me dió varias horas de trabajo, solo retiré las hojas grandes, más adelante tocará manicura en seco. Algunas colas más gruesas que mis brazos

After tap root popped. Put directly into soil/seed tray, covered with humidity dome and put on heat mat set at 78. Once I saw roots I transferred them to final 5g fabric pot

Looking good. One plant is ready to harvest, but I'm going to push it another week anyways, maybe go for around 30-40% amber trichomes, as I prefer the heavier effects.

This one was Baked in Paris by PerfectTreeSeeds, grown with AptusPlantTech only! Check the other weeks to see the ones with GreenPlanetNutrients! Great gassy notes, awesome structure, beautiful colours. I know this one came out a little too early, but I was having problems with humidity and also with smell so I decided to take 'em all out at the same time. Forgot to take pictures of her on the drying screen, will update soon (:
