๐ป Week 9 and almost ready for the chop!!! ๐ฑ โ๏ธ๐ฑ..most of the plants are finally starting to flush out, this will be week 3 of PH water only..1 of the 4 plants is still pretty dark so she's getting an extra gallon every watering. I'd say we still have a few weeks left but we'll inspect trichs again soon be sure. The MarsHydro is killing it! This is only our 2nd grow using this light, if you're hung up on 4x2 lighting, just buy one, they guarantee massive, resin coated buds with minimal effort.. I honestly wish I had discovered it before all our other LED purchases but live and learn โค๏ธ๐ฑ ... Something interesting to note, the plant with the split main stem has made twice the amount of frost, this is at least the 4th time we've seen split stems lead to this type response..It got us thinking that maybe there's some merit to the nail trick from the 90's but idkl (please comment if you have any information on this) ...it could all be coincidence but it's compelling imo..
..Not too much else to report, its been a great week! Thanks for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!!!

The trichomes are starting to make themselves known On this one, also the smell is becoming a citrus like aroma which is one of my favorites, also No signs of deficiencies or anything yet so I hope it stays that way.

Hola cultivadores!
Esta chica estรก seduciendo mi mente cada dรญa, no dejo de verla y darle cuidados, algunas hojas viejas cuentan la historia de una vida de excesos y mucha luz de cerca, pero hoy es una planta fuerte y segura. Se alimenta con ansias ya que el agua de riego desaparece de su maceta en cuestiรณn de horas (ademรกs que hay mucha exposiciรณn del sustrato). Su etapa de Bloom ya es mรกs que visible y he decidido no hacer defoliaciรณn hasta dentro de 2 semanas si fuera necesario.
Sus ramas son muy fuertes y creo que no necesita nada mรกs de lo que le doy.
Si alguien tiene un sabio consejo se lo agradezco ๐๐ตโโ๏ธ๐โโ๏ธ๐น๐
Saludos a todos y gracias por visitar el diario ๐
Irie!

Hi guys, just a quick info for whoever read this diary:
I started this run with two plants but during Week 9 (57 days: 49 vegetative + 8 flowering) I had to remove the one on the right due slow growth (issue started after I topped her).
Enjoy the reading.
๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
Third run begins.
๐ช๐ฆCookies Gelato by RQS, my first time with photoperiods.
I created this diary at the end of January but due some problem with the new drip system (too ph oscillations), I decided to go back to my first love: the DWC.
This time, however, I decided to build my own DWC, taking into account the negative aspects that I find in the expensive DWC of various brands.
This tank has about 50 liters capacity and on the bottom I have inserted a metal tap that will help me with the solution changes.
The lid is made up of two parts, the upper one on which I made a hole in which I inserted a 2 liter planter full of expanded clay and the two root riot;
the front part of the lid is magnificent because it opens and allows me to do a quick check of PH and EC.
This time I'm going to count the days from the germination date. I'm going to VEG for about 40 days, then switch to 12/12 for about 70 days.
I plan on topping the plants during week 4, then defoliation + SCROG during week 5, switch 12/12 during week 6. Then lollipopping at the end of the stretch.
In this run I will use my new MARS HYDRO TS1000 2022 (already have one with 2021 MOSO driver), bought a few days ago to test the latest model with the proprietary Mars Hydro driver. I'm sure there will be further improvement in my performance ๐ช.
No sponsor for me yet, what I have is what I bought but I hope someone can help me to bring my crops to the next level. I'm planning to buy a new 90x90 tent and a nice 300/480 watt lamp would be very nice. Crossed fingers! ๐ค
๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑGERMINATION STAGE๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
- 20/2/23: seeds in a glass of demineralized water, 2 drops of rootbastic and 3 drops of hydrogen peroxide for 24 hours, then in root riot;
- 21/2/23: seeds under TS1000: 100 cm distance / 33% dimmer = 50 watt;
- 22/2/23: first Cookies Gelato sprouted;
- 23/2/23: second Cookies Gelato sprouted. - Got some gift from RQS, really appreciated.
I'll consider tomorrow as 1ยฐ day of veg for all 2 seedlings. I'll switch 'em to 12/12 after 40/45 days of veg.

Day 50. Its last day for Autos outside, tonight indoors will be a bit less crowdy ;))
They stretched like hell, but i hope to take under control indoors.
Whiteys are smallest, but fastest to flower, Diesels are huge and in full bloom, Lemonade OG still in preflower mode, but they will be massive ;))
RQS pot is pure pain. Cookie is duckleafing, curling, now fading, they didn't liked that training for sure ;))) Even Gorilla bit unhappy and still very bright.
Day 52. Change of plans again... One girl indoors went hermie, so till all run is finished and tent properly washed, can't bring any plants in .
Cookie is started to make leaves like rocket not weed ... pure pain in the @ss......

Tag 45: Ich beginne mit dem Scroggen der Pflanze, ich habe dafรผr das Netz eingebaut und etwas entlaubt. Doch die Cookie Gelato sieht nicht mehr so Vital aus , vermutlich war die Lampe etwas zu dicht, zur Stressbehandlung gebe ich jetzt noch Alg a mic in das Gieรwasser. Ich hoffe sie erholt sich noch ๐ฑ

FBT2309 is flowering well. She has a sweet flowery aroma at the moment. She is growing under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2, in the Gen1:11 nutrition. She is coming to the end part of bulking. I figure she has about 2 weeks left roughly. She has a nice frost, and is looking great. The organo-mineral nutrition is a bit tougher to grow in. The flavor has been amazing from other grows. So it's worth the extra effort. Thank you Medic Grow, Gen1:11, and Fast Buds for the tester. ๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
Thank you grow diaries community for the ๐likes๐, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel๐. โ๏ธ๐ฑ๐ป

Everything is going fine so far.
And the smell is just amazing and the trichomes are growing good and allot.
By the looks of it its all going how it supposed to grow.
I started this week with lowering the nutrients from 4 ml to 3 ml.
Upcoming week I will start to flush till harvest time.
Oh yeah can't wait to taste and get high from my own grow.

Week 10, so from today I stopped watering the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe and on Saturday no more light as well. Sunday is harvest day finally. Not much changed, I raised up the water with 25ml so the Purple Punch gets 200ml 2 x a day. That's all, since last week I started giving 13 hours darkness and 11 hours light and from Monday will be 12/12 after I harvested the Gelato Cookie D'ohpe and I can use the tent only for her. Fertilization will happen on the same days. Sunday fun day, Gelato Cookie D'ohpe is harvested. Purple Punch left alone. From tomorrow I will switch the light schedule 12/12. End of the week Purple Punch is 43 cm.

Weekly roundup.
๐ it's been another excellent week for this one, I managed to really hit her with some photons this week due to the weather cooling off and being able to get a better grip on the environment, because of this iv limited the 1st week of flower stretch to 14cm. I'm still going to run out of headroom and will need to lower the power later in the grow.
Take it easy.
Back soon.
