So this was the first time doing lst, and the first time i trained Them was def to early, so i might have decressed my yield pretty much but, theyre doing really fine besides the lack of budsides, and i Think still 4 weeks of flower to get faat, and soo beautiful Colors showing already😍😍

The plant just seems to be sick. As last week the leaves are mutated and nothing like my previous grows. Growth is slow too, all in it's a bit of a runt. Purple is coming though and it is certainly interesting and LST is easy as the internodal spacing is good. Very low hopes for this grow but still early doors. I looked at other grows on here and a couple showed up as sickly like this one.

Week 4 Jan - 10 January 6 January - feed day 10/1 - Last feed

I realized there may have been a bit of a light leak in the late morning. I taped everything up more. In the future I want to maintain better reflective integrity on the inside of the tent. Everything looks good. The buds are still growing a little taller and filling out. The CBD Blue Shark is super frosty. It's actually absurd. Orange hairs are coming out in all plants. I was hoping to be able to keep the exhaust window open overnight to let the overnight temps drop 10 degrees to encourage the purples in the WC genetics, but it's too humid now to have the window open without the grow light on. Otherwise the rh goes up to 70% overnight and it's not worth the risk. Next year I'll flip earlier when it's still colder and drier out for the harvest window. This flowering period has been really cool. I've really been noticing the process of flowering. The calyxes open up and turn into pistils and sugar leaves, and more keep appearing and popping every day. It's awesome. March 04 watered again with straight water. They're finally drinking more than once a week! The pistils seem more red today than yesterday. I got a $30 micro camera to check trichromes, they all seem clear for now (there is some glare in the pics). No amber for now at least. March 05 found some amber trichromes March 06 lots of leaves are going yellow. We're definitely in the home stretch. March 06 I've been a little worried about the size of the colas. There's not much sticking out past the canopy. I've also noticed a bunch of new leaves that have started popping out and I was a little worried that the buds were foxtailing or herming. I've had temps go up to 30 a couple times in the morning before I open the window. But it seems that the buds are filling out more and getting fatter, not just foxtailing, and I think they're getting ready for one last push, not just getting full of leaves for no reason. It changes a lot every day. Tomorrow is the 23rd week of the grow. I switched the lights on a Thursday so this Thursday will mark 8 weeks of flowering time and the beginning of my harvest window (8-9 weeks for both strains).

Little simple training, ChemDawg is shooting

Both bean poles back to seed LOL

Day 56 At first I thought the purple stemming was genetics but from how small her leafs are at the top i think it was a deficiency. This feed pushes plants hard and some just arent up for it,

She's looking very healthy, beautiful color on the leafs, completely stunning after I got rid of the fungus gnats she's growing ultra fast, let's see what happens with this beautiful princess of mine! 😍👀💚

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥🍒

7/30 I defoliated another 3 gallon bucket of dead leaves. I really hope this is senescence. It appears to be. However some little leaves on the bottom interior seem to be turning yellow and falling off. Plants look healthy. I always worry when this happens. I labeled this week as flower as I can see the "asparagus stalks" stretching that will eventually become colas. Pistols are evident. I'm wondering if my ph is off. I can't find my meter. That's how it always goes. Only thing I can't find is the thing I need. I'll update once I put some work in. I think the girls are hungry. I will feed tomorrow. Tonight looks cool enough to spray. Now to decide WHAT to spray. 7/31 FED 3 GALLONS TO THE GARDEN. I didn't water before or after I fed. I was on a time constraints and plants looked hungry. I hope I'm not putting to many salt based nutes to the soil to cause lock out. Leaves on my GDPs seem to be dropping. They've grown WAY taller though. I'll have to look at a deficiency chart but it just looks like they are bleached out. I hope the WPM didn't stop them from performing photosynthesis. It can't stay this hot forever though and I'll be applying either organocide or potassium bicarbonate to treat the WPM. It's not a bad case anyway. I'm not losing AS many leaves but lots have dropped or turned yellow. Leaves at the very top of the GDP have tacoed. Hopefully the kelp me kelp you helps. I put down more slug bait pellets to hopfully kill these bastards. Can't find my ph meter. I'm probably going to have to do a slurry test if i cant find it. One cool thing is that NYC Skunk Ape plant is ridiculously resilient. Even with plants around that have pm and other stuff this bush stands strong unaffected by disease or pest. 8/1 Didn't water. Leaves on my GDP's are turning yellow and the very top leaves are tacoed. I'm defoliating what I can. Ph must be off or something. Not sure. I'll update later 8/2 I took a few one minute videos to shoe friends the yellowing leaves. He thinks lockout as well. It's strange. Only the GDPs are showing these signs of extremely yellowing bleaching leaves. I did feed 3 gallons without watering due to a medical emergency. Maybe that fucked up the ph at the root zone. The tops of some of the GDPs have burnt 🌮 leaves. Friend said that's a sign of lockout. This morning the damage was the most evident as I didn't defoliate the prior day. I see all plants transitioning to flower though. The blueberry that was sideways and needed to be supported is doing awesome. The GDPs rte the only plants that seem to be struggling. I was worried about that when getting my clones. Oh well we will see how things work out. I either need another ph meter or a way to test soil ph. UPDATE: I bought another soil ph meter. The GDP in the middle had readings anywhere from 7.3 to 8.5. The other GDPs were low 7's. Same with other plants I got a read on. My well water is a tad alkaline. Not much. Usually adding nutes brings it down to perfect. I say this every year but I need to stop using salt based nutrients. I filled a 5 gallon bucket and phed the water before using the majority to 'kinda' flush the medium of the large GDP. I did the same to the other GDPs. Only time will tell if this was the correct move. Still have problems with earwigs. I added more sluggo plus pellets. I may go over after dark and see what I can find. 8/3 Massive thunder storm last night. Measured the ph and the three best plants (2 9lb kush, 1 NYC Skunk ape) had ph of 6.6 and 6.7. I couldn't read the skunk ape but it's the healthiest looking. The GDPs are ALL high 7's with the back of one bag registering at 8.5 at the highest!! This is after all that rain too. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I'll update later. I see prior earwig damage on the small interior thin Larry stuff. I may need to lollipop. This is a challenging year. 8/4 The GDPs look pretty rough and are transitioning to flower. I'm wondering if I should just strip the damage from earwigs (almost like lillipoping) and cut the small interior larfy stuff that's been damaged. I did some slight defokiating but the gdps have dropped a lot of leaves. Transplanted that nycsa clone that was in a 1 gal FOREVER into a 10 gal smart pot. I don't expect much but better than just letting it die like I had been. The 9lb kush clone will get thrown in either another 10gal bag or right I. My pile of old soil. I have a lot of work to do. I have some plants that are doing amazing. I have a couple in rough shape. No more clones for me. No more foxfire nutes either. I always run into lockout at least once and I don't feed heavy. I'll update as I progress. Today is another day in the upper 90's with rh about the same. 8/5 I guess we got some rain last night. I brought the ph on all the plants down. Highest readingcwas 7.4 which is better than 8.5. That one big GDP is in some rough shape. Earwigs have stripped some internal shoots to absolutely nothing but a stick. I thought I was controlling the population pretty well but I guess not. I will go back over add more sluggo plus, de and petroleum jelly and possibly do a spinosid spray. Plants are really transitioning to flower. If imvgoungvto away now is the time. PM is there but it's really not that bad.

D92/FD64 - Now the humidity down from the cull, showing no real signs of the rot...did take 1 or 2 more smaller buds and a few from the drying box that was getting the "Grey Beard" but <touch wood>, seems to have settled. The Lower buds appear to be ripening now and are a deep purple. This plant looks soo amazing, pity it was just not so strong against the rot (again, it was done no favours by out of whack temps [i let it get a bit low at night for colour] and humidity). Have bought a Hotbox Sulfume now for a preventative going forward so would risk this strain again now that I know it needs that bit more protection; 'cause it smells so different and looks so different, its a winner - as long as I can get it over the line safely!!! May hit this a blast with the sulfur for a couple of 2 hour sessions over the next week to ensure it remains without mold!!!! Apart from that, nothing else to report. Happy growing all!!! 💪

Welcome to my Black Jack..(After looking through my seeds and seen that my packaging for this strain. I've the normal Black Jack, not the FV) I seen this strain in the Sweet Seeds List when asked to pick. And it was a year ago. And I picked it from its pedigree and the fact I didn't do a FV of any kind, nor have I still. (I am actually doing their OG high prize pedigree strain. Even better. I've the Cream Cartmel FV as I got confused) She is a healthy girl in day 35 now. Really healthy. I Broke A few of her walls to bend it as it was all stacked up. (I've tons more pics of her progress hopefully I'll be able to pull up) But, as you can see. Her structure was mainly stacked so she was shaped and I let her nodes go hard as they do when HST'ed not for the fact to get big buds, as that's not when HST Is meant for only. Super cropping requires a lot of early hst. (Its simple you just fell a node by rolling it and bending it to fall where you plan to shape for a few days you need to make sure if sticks as if she's in any stages of rapid growth. She'll just grow straight back upwards Anyways. I've set her up nicely ill put her to flip soon.. After she pre flowers and does that full phase I'll HST and watch her few nodes explode. As she doesn't have a lot of foliage and I lollipopped a lot as you can see. Need to do plants with not a lot of mentinance as I've 21+ atm going. Every plant is healthy.. all at different stages and going according to plan actually an extra week ahead on 3 autos that have already moved into the fattening stage. FC 3000 is turned up to 100% and held at 40% away giving the autos 1000ish ppfd and allowing my whole tent to get more light. I've the light about 130cm up from the floor. Nutrient wise. Looks like a lot. Well if I were doing weeks. Power roots, pure zym are given once every 10 days or so. Alga Grow was stopped on day 30. I did give her she fish force only today. (Day 33 and 2 weeks ago) Terpinator will be applied in a few days and will be every 10 days or so until soft flush (water feeds for a wk, no run-off). ALL NUTRIENTS ARE EVEN DAYS APART AND ENZYMES AND POWER ROOTS ARE USED AS FOLLOW FEEDS. No ph'in as this is organic. TERPINATOR IS 6.4 WITH MY WATER AND I GAVE THAT TODAY 3 DAYS APART FROM HER LAST ORGANIC PRODUCT (As they hold a ph of 4 some are 9. But its organic and true organic soil doesn't need ph'in) only additives need to be brought in line with soil needs if using synthetic nutrients and should not be given near anything that may clash. Rule is if you're giving a different brand/type organic/synthetic don't put them in the same pot that will allow them to mix there ph's as synthetic nutrients require a set ph in soil where as true organics don't. Thanks to sweet seeds for giving me these seeds. Sorry it took so long to get to. Real hardy seeds. 1.3yrs old and they she looks great for a 33 day old lady.

Week 10 for White widow by Greenhouseseedco, She finally got her transplant into 25L of fairly good soil mix of biobozz light mix/coco mix + a good feed of @bokashibiochar + a feeding of BioGrow by greenhousefeeding I think a few days of adjusting and she will start to explode.

Today is day 22 of flower. Currently I am on the 5th day of a flush with just water at ph of 5.9. Two more days we will go back to regular nutes. She is stacking up nice at this point couldn’t be happier with how well the plant thrived. It’s like there was never any issues. Currently wishing I cleaned up the bottom of the plant more. This plant has been such and easy grow thanks to the genetics I’m sure. Looks like she will yield nicely. It’s been a little cold at night here lately but she is taking it well

Hello, readers! Branches keep falling down, because of it's weight. I'm trying to manage them. Very hard positioning them. One of big brunches broke somehow... It's still on the plant, layd on the ties I think next week will be last for her. I didn't change solution, so i decided to fed her with TA only this week, so as not to accidentally overdose her. Feeding that's not from TA is in gr/l

Sorry had my ratios off last week on my nutes. Anyway she's turning into a bush I found some balls on the lower half been plucking them off. So I guess technically it's a Hermie not a her. Top half looks amazing. Since it's only one plant I'm going to grow it out I've got nothing to lose. Had to do some lst because it grew up into the light. EC is at 2
