Looking like the plant is around a week behind where I thought it would be, was worried about the buds fattening, they just had a lot of extra work forging all those extra flowers, so I upped the dosage of phosphorous/potassium/calcium and magnesium. Raised night temps slightly as the AC was having trouble making it down to 59 this was burning a lot of electricity. C02 sitting steady at 1300ppm. Dropped daytime temps to 80 as trichomes starting to come along nicely, I want to make sure no degradation occurs to the trichomes from heat radiation. Last, grow I noticed I got too close to lights and noticed it accelerated the decay of the thc within the trichomes on highest cola. Raised light to 18 inch from The highest point of the canopy. Things were starting to heat up, I want to take some pressure off the plants. Added 2x 45w 810nm PAR32 bulbs Interesting to notice the bright calyx of fresh flowers still yet to bloom from the bud, with such high levels of UV radiation any surface layer of the plant is given a purple tint/hue within 1-2 days, this allows me to spot fresh "buds" that have yet to flower as they appear a lighter shade of green. This new growth happens overnight as fresh white calyx burst from the overnight growth spurt, It felt almost like the plant was probing to see where to place its new bud, When I raised the lights to18 inches It felt like a weight was lifted. The plant is visibly eating/defoliating lower fan leaves en masse, freeing up every last source of energy for bud growth, interesting to note how much better a job the plant does of defoliating when I just let it do it itself, once certainly seems to be enough for my liking, it takes what it takes when it needs it if it needs a lot it takes it. Interesting to note in previous grows I could not get the plants to cannibalize, good to know every last ounce of flower power is being utilized, trying to find the balance between the amount of cola and what the plant can produce in total seems to be key, I would have liked to mainline a more but the clones had a tough long life and have grown from little cuttings no bigger than my thumb, whatever hormonal screwery monstercropping did, it made them highly sensitive to stress, in a good way though, they just flower endlessly everywhere at the drop of a hat and I wasn't sure how far I could push them given how sensitive they became during flower. I have been fortunate with genetics, but I wonder if I will be able to look back on this in years to come and say "she was a beast that could handle stress" or is my inexperience just leading me to blow smoke up my own ass. I'll need more experience with different strains to make that judgement, either way I look forward to the journey. Think next ill look to see how much i can pack on a single cola. Smell is really starting to pick up, I would install my carbon filter, but its legal and I love the smell of harvest looming.

.. Week2 start to use beneficial nutrients and switch the light only 18 hours per day.⏰ {Activities} (Day 8) First day of the week, i dont't water the plants. (Day 9) Second day use some nutrients, there're Cal-mag 0.3ml./L. , Bio-heaven 2ml./L. , Acti-vera and Fish-Mix each 1ml./L. (Day 10) ....Practice the dharma So calm🧘‍♂️..Just observe them. Nice growing (Day 11) Use a Root-juice 4ml/2L. I think the roots will not walk to the bottom of the pot if the watering does not reach so I should add 1 liter of water per a plant. (Day 12) Today I should add more fan for my grow tent so today I'm buying new one , switch the light to 75% and Lamp To Plant Distance 24-26inches . (Day 13)...This day I'm not do anything about my plants but learning about toping and cloning a plant or other training a plant. (Day 14) The last day water the plants but use only water.🚿 Hope you like and enjoy my diary. Thank you so much for checking out my grows.

On week 3....I noticed that the 3rd week the soil dries out quickly, so this week controls water the plants only 2 times with nutrients but add water volume increase to 1.5 L. , Switch the light to 18hours per day. {Activities) (Day 15) First day I don't water the plants. (Day 16) And second day I still don't water the plants because the soil is wet. (Day 17) Today use the nutrients, There're (Cal-mag 0.5ml. , Fish-mix 2ml. , Bio-heaven and Acti-vera each 3ml. per 2L. water. I think should add more fan for my grow tent so today I'm buying new one. (Day 18) Mixed Fish-Mix & Acti-Vera each 1ml./L. for foliar fertilizers (Day 19) Today switch the light to 75% and Lamp To Plant Distance 24-26inches . (Day 20) The soil has dries up. Use a Root-juice 4ml/2L. 🚿 (Day 21) The last day... (Hope you like and enjoy my diary) Thank you so much for checking out my grows. Feel free to leave a comment, push the like or give the follow.

Good week. Lots of rain, OG shot up 6" to a whopping 68". Everybody happy and well hydrated. I used to have a perspective on how big these will get but now I have no idea whatsoever, lol. I know they'll fill out during flower but will they just keep going up indefinitely? Thanks for looking Happy Growing!

Plants growing slowly, having a problem with mold and I went and got hydrogen peroxide and that seems to control the area of it when sprayed.

Day 21 Flowering: Well what a week it has been this week growmies Dealing with flash heat waves , building soils , setting up new lights and generally trying to squeeze every last inch of my grow space for plants without creating a stagnant lower growth below the canopy . airflow is vital with such a cramped , hot and dense budded canopy starting. I have been feeding the Banana mash with a slightly lighter feed than the Purple monkey and they look a lot less toxic. Still way behind the Purple Monkey for bud production and density , theyvare stretching wildly still. The main 3 are very similar in size etc but #4 is really getting like a bowl of noodles now and will need some serious thinning out and brutal decisions in who goes to harvest time. Being in the middle of the canopy she is really trying to spread out wider too. The Banana mash are really good,vigorous growers with lots of side branching to create some really big plants full of budsites , the key will be if you can utilise all of that growth or if ,like me, you need to select the best branches and tips to focus on. The Purple Monkey are all doingreally good and for 21 days , the buds are very well developed. It could indicate an early flowering finish around 7 weeks possibly but I am hoping it is more about their intended finish being huge buds. The #1and #2 are really packing the weight on amd stacking the nodes already. this gives their buds a really solid appearance already and I will be very cautious of allowing moisture to build up with this density . The #3 is a different pheno to the other 2 and her buds are further apart and more spikey looking. She is also trying to hit the clouds still so need to be firmly held down if you want to keep them low. I have been supercropping the tallest of the limbs and trying to keep them upright enough to stay in the light available. She will need support once her buds pack the weight on. They are all starting to smell so sweet too and even now have a nice sticky appeal when touched. I could not recommend this strain enough and love growing it already. The purple is starting to appear in #2 already and should continue as it is not related to temp drops at all that can happen . Shebwill live up to her namesake i think. The other 2 are pure white and solent green looking buds which are a great examples of what they can do. I can only see a great yield from how they are going now and wishbinjad a room full of them .lol. The other 2 crosses are both starting to hit their stretch max now with the Exotic? really looking thick and bushy and showing her sex now. She needs to stretch now to get her mains up into the canopy without the tub underneath. The Mango X Mimosa is in full flowering mode for sure with no signs of any male gonads or hermie behaviour...It is making a huge plant so far and with the massive growth of the father being the main driver I think and she/he put out over 5oz. Fingers crossed for that size with beautiful exotic mango cream buds ..... So there we have it for this update growmies. Hope the video isn't too long this time guys but a lot happening in the room. Until next time. keep it green and be free .
