Very variable weather, summer is at the end, temperature drops quickly, even 60 °F. I was out for 3 days, on my return I found the three girls who were starting to wither but they were promptly watered. No damage to report. The yellowing of the lower canopy has started. Acceptable weather forecast until 10 September. I bought 5 transparent PCV tarps to protect them extemporaneously from the rain. My beloved Gorilla rocks! Buds are forming and filling very well, super sticky and frosty. Strong citron/bubblegum scent. This sativa-like pheno is funtastic, she is not very leafy, leaves are narrow so the sun penetrate very well through the whole plant. It remains to be seen how the buds will fill up and if my girl can disprove the reputation for "quality buds but low yields" . Let's see. Expected harvest September 3rd week.

Started withholding nutrients too early and she literally just started eating herself. We are close to the finish. Buds are swelling up and trichomes get thicker by the day. Video update New video of The 91Grapes ripening. So I’m not too sure about the information that this strain is ready for harvest in 65-70 days as you can see today is day 90 and still chugging along. The grow light transmitts color in 3700(k) so not true at all , I will to locate a light with a truer color for better pictures.

4/10/2023 Week 1- Day 1 of Flower (Day 68 overall) So when I looked in the tent today the leaves were just above the Net. They hit my " I have to flip mark" so I did just that I flipped them today. I drained the system and filled it with Week 1 Day 1 Flower Nutes. The lights are set to turn off at 8:00pm EST and will turn back on tomorrow at 0800 EST and everyday for the rest of the Grow. To get my water change schedule back on track to Saturdays, since I had to flip tonight on a Tuesday, I will wait 1 week and 5 days instead of the typical 2 weeks for my first change out of the system, so not this Saturday coming up but the following Saturday. I added 36 Gallons of Water Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 36Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 5.2Mil/Gal= 187Mil FloraGro= 4.3Mil/Gal= 155Mil FLoraBloom= 5.2Mil/Gal= 187Mil TPS SIGNAL= 1.0Mil/Gal= 36Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil PPFD= 680 Water Temp= 71.4 Tent Temp= 77 Humidity =59 4/11/2023 Week 1- Day 2 of Flower (Day 69 overall) Nothing to report day of rest of me and the plants as they get used to the flowering mix and the new lighting schedule. 4/12/2023 Week 1- Day 3 of Flower (Day 70 overall) Heavy De-foliation was necessary.. A few branches are close to where I can SCROG them down. 4/13/2023 Week 1- Day 4 of Flower (Day 71 overall) Super Cropped it and SCROGed it down to the net, I will keep and eye on it and take action as different branches reach over the line. 4/14/2023 Week 1- Day 5 of Flower (Day 72 overall) I defoliated the canopy some and I cleaned up some of the under bruch that was getting no light. Deep in the middle and low under the canopy. I also did a little Super Cropping of any branches too far above the canopy. 4/15/2023 Week 1- Day 6 of Flower (Day 73 overall) Continued defoliation of the top bottom and front and some heavy defoliation of the backs of the plants today.. 4/16/2023 Week 1 - Day 7 of Flower (Day 74 overall) Did Some Heavy Defoliation of the stuff on the inside that isn't getting any light and I cut off anything that I found that seems weak and is still just not making it to the canopy. I also did some super Cropping of the branches as well SCROGing it down. I added 10 gallons of water to they system the ladies have been thirsty and I added additional Week 1 Flower Nutes to the mix. 10 Gallons Add Mammoth=.5mil/Gal= Weekly TOP UP + 10 Gallons Add TOP UP= 36 Gallons = 18Mil +10 Gallons = 5Mil Total= 23Mil Root Drip= 1Mil/Gal= 10Mil CalMag=.5Mil/Gal = 5Mil FloraMicro= 5.2Mil/Gal = 52Mil FloraGro = 4.3Mil/Gal = 43Mil Flora Bloom = 5.2Mil/Gal = 52Mil TPS Signal = 1Mil/Gal = 10Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal = 5Mil PPM = 721

2/28: Amnesia has some yellowing of the leaves that appeared around about 12 hours before my usual every-3-day feedings and after I started to defoliating some of the previous yellow leaves from the previous accidental lack of water. I'm not sure if it is progressing, or it's just because I'm dialing in the watering schedule and she's using the nutrients in the extra, fatter, lower leaves. I've increased Amnesia's light distance to 16 inches and am lowering the humidity to stick between 60-70% RH with the automatic fan set to remove excess humidity near the higher end of that range. Fresh air fan blowing around the tent and into the 2 lower vents. Smells like a fresh garden outside of the tent, however smells green when the tent is opened. Not a strong green smell, but mildy recognizable. 3/1: Welp, it's worsened, and has shown itself in both plants now. Since they share the same environment and nutrients, I suspect this to be a nutrient issue. Trainwreck was known for potentially having excess Nitrogen as shown by the extremely bushy growth, dark green leaves, and downward curling leaf-tips. However, Trainwreck is now no longer exhibiting those symptoms, and has lightened up and is stretching. But! Trainwreck is showing signs of potassium deficiency, with brown spots appearing on upper leaves. The same goes for Amnesia, brown spots have migrated their way to upper leaves. I'm thinking a banana tea will be good for them, so I've got a couple large banana peels steeping in the pump sprayer for this evenings watering. My conclusions: 1. Nutrient burn hitting Amnesia hard, but Trainwreck is riding it out from its stored excesses. 2. Both are lacking some potassium now that they're beefing up in flowering stage. Edit: I've decided to add a quarter-strength nutrient to this banana tea so as to not completely flush out the remaining nutrients. I believe that would leave her starved in between her next feeding, in 3-4 days from now. 3/2: Welp! That made it worse! Time to test the PH of my soil. If the PH is too far in one direction or the other, certain nutrients will be locked out. I've ordered a PH meter instead of these PH testing drops. I didn't know that the difference between 6.0 and 6.5 would be so drastic, but with that said, I need to be more precise about my PH levels if I want to maximize these nutrients. Until the PH meter gets delivered tomorrow I may, if my research says that I should, flush with plain water ph'd water to try to flush out salts and try to get the PH back to 6.5 where it needs to be. Edit: I do not believe this to be overfeeding, as I would expect nutrient burn on the tips of all leaves, but there are colas that are completely unaffected by the recent feedings. However, if the PH is off, and I suspect it is, individual deficiencies will pop up and affect the leaves differently. The other plant, trainwreck, which was planted later, may have contained less Ocean Forest nutrients from the top of the bag, and also more Happy Frog; so it's riding out these issues just fine. 3/4: The discoloring on Amnesia has not spread to any other leaves. I've done a little bit of defoliating on the yellow and crispy leaves. Looks like they're already being replaced. I've got my ph meter now, and doing a slurry test came out 6.4 on the top inch of soil, the only soil I could get to without ripping up the roots. Either way, I'm doing to be certain to PH tonight's feeding (half strength) perfectly to 6.5, as opposed to trying my best using PH testing drops, which is almost impossible! Trainwreck is getting some spots on her leaves, so she'll be ready for her feeding tomorrow.

Flush week for Ultra Lemon Haze, stinking a little more this week, and eating the stored nutrients. AH1 is getting weird, loosing colour, i dont know why, im going to increase the nutes a little... Giving Top Bloom (2ml/l) and Big One (0,5 ml/l). AH2 is branching and branching, and growing a lot. Feeding Top Veg 2ml/l + Green Explosion 0,5 ml/l.

They are growing really well with the steady waterings in the small pots. I will be transplanting into 5 gal pots tomorrow (day 23) with my regular soil mixed with more GHS bio feed. Love how easy its been to get these looking this well with this nutrient line. I am actually using it on one outdoor 25 gallon pot (no journal for that) and that plant is growing HUGE already over 6 ft tall. Day 22- No water Day 23- Watered at 6.5 ph Day 24-25 no water Day 26- Watered 6.5 ph Day 27- No Water Day 28- 6.5ph Watering. Weekly Notes: - Transplanted into 5 gal with 4 gals worth of good soil mix along with 45 grams of BioFeed (each plant) **took a video of how I mixed and added these nutrients and uploaded to album** - Topped both plants! lets see what happens. Plant 2 has better structure and is already getting good growth going after the topping. WP1 is a little slower behind but still developing into a real nice plant. - Uploaded a pic of a Hindu Kush landrace Potted in 35 gallons of soil with 3 gs/L *BioGrow* and a Carolina Reaper pepper plant planted with the same conditions / ratio . LOOKING GREAT!! - Installed a new automatic irrigation system for both my tents. VERY stoke about this new upgrade. 100% de-chlorinated ph'd water going into all my plants from now on . Its a new technique im trying opposed to feeding with nutrients. I make my own soil mixes now so I do not need anything more than the BioFeeds as boosters for my already decent soil. I like to think the plants are VERY happy right now because they are a beautiful green and are growing so steady and strong.

Alright I've updated this postmortem and cure just to give an idea of what I was up to during the dry and cure weeks. This grow was a ton of work and I'm very please with the results. I learned a ton about soil and environment control and really feel like I'm gaining confidence and coming into my own as a cultivator. I've been playing a lot with ice water hash and rosin and have set some neat goals for the future like hunting ice water hash cultivars, going perpetual and expanding the amount of canopy I can work with by building a network of remote-operated satellite flower tents in friends' and family's abodes . I'm not sure I'll go through all this effort of documentation here again, but please follow along on my instagram, stay in touch and chill out with me sometime @Fullmeltalchemist.00 All in all, I was running 1000w of quantum board across three tents and pulled just over 1100 grams, which was a big goal of mine. Thanks for all the advice and love growmies! And thanks growdiaries for the platform. It's been coo.

TUESDAY 8/13: I fed her about a half-gallon with big bloom, kelp me kelp you, bembe, beastie bloomz, and terpinator. Hopefully that will kickstart the bud swelling. WEDNESDAY: We had a little rain last night. It's sunny today, but the temperature is a little cooler and the humidity is very high. I had my glasses on while inspecting her this morning..seeing some signs of spider mites here and there. I'll spray them with trifecta crop control this evening or tomorrow morning depending on if the humidity drops quick enough. THURSDAY: No time for gardening at all today...😕 FRIDAY: I missed a day only to return and find that she's SICK!!! Damnit!😖 She and two of my other plants suddenly have what looks like a bad calcium and/or phosphorous deficiency. I sprinkled some bat guano and silicium flash onto her soil and watered it in with about a half gallon of water including calimagic, beastie bloomz, terpinator, and bembe. I also thoroughly sprayed her with boom boom spray. I started brewing another batch of the PK booster compost tea including extra bat guano, earthworm castings, bembe, big bloom, and kelp me kelp you. It should be ready on Sunday...hang in there baby!🙏 SATURDAY: I went boating and had no time for gardening.. SUNDAY: I fed her a little bit of compost tea, but I fear her pot is too wet down at the bottom and that this is really a root problem. Gonna transplant her tomorrow for sure. MONDAY: I transplanted her into a 5 gallon pot with a much lighter mix..her roots were subpar to say the least. Kinda stinky...I think maybe too much biochar and not enough perlite in that pot.
