Day 57: Today I defoliated all the plants again. It wasn't much on the Tropical Marker, but I had to remove quite a bit from the other two because they're growing very bushy. I also wove the shoots further into the net. I think it's turning out really well. I also watered the Tropical Marker and the Purple Kush with 2 liters of water each with fertilizer and a pH of 6.3. I set the light to 80%. The Tropical Marker's flower is getting bigger and bigger! Day 58: Not much new has happened; they've enjoyed the defoliation and more light. All the girls are preaching to the light. I've also woven some shoots further into the net. Day 59: Hey guys, the plants look great! The Purple Kush and Pink Gelato are starting to stretch more. The buds are slowly forming. Today, I watered all three plants with 2 liters of water. I added 5 ml of Hes-Bio-Bloom and 1 ml of Bio-Bizz-Calmag to the water per liter. Then, I increased the pH to 6.4 with bio-bizz-up. Here and there, I weaved some shoots further into the net. Day 60: The girls look good and are preaching to the light. Today I measured the PPFD. It was between 600 and 740 PPFD. So I set the light to 90%. Now I've measured a PPFD of 700-850. I'll observe how the ladies like it and increase the value if necessary. I've also woven the shoots further into the net. It's very hot in the tent, so I set the fan to 80%.

All the buds on plant 1 seemed to have doubled in size this week. She's also starting to get a very sweet citrusy smell. I'm loving how sticky and smelly everything is, especially after trimming.

Veg Week 5 Day 35 to 41 - 3/25 to 3/31 This week is primarily test training recovery. Seeing each recent topping was at the 3 node point I topped again. Follow up of the cola breaks was nice for all but 1, The worst break (the one with tape over it) actually recovered very well, I see no future issues from that branch other than monitor for weight tears. The next worse break on the other plant wasnt so fortunate. While it started out okay, it also kept ripping under its own weight as it grew topping wasnt only beneficial, it was the only thing that allowed this branch to survive past the day (lesson here is to make sure all breaks are back supported early while they recover at least) I think this branch may need to be supported for the entire grow, and the amount of recovery time is possibly past the point of which I would want to see in a normal grow since it may not produce nearly as well as the other colas. The lighter break on each plant look to have taken advantage of the damage and produces giant knuckles of cured hardwood at the breaks. This is exactly the kind of recovery I want to see since all future water ways will pass these points and the branch will still be strong enough to support future weight of giant flowers. Feed this week was again an auto pot reservoir feed at 300ppm total before add-ins. I used 300ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and NO Bloom concentrate mix (just showing the recipe in week 5- I am adding it in week 6). However, I also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and ph balance this week was for 6.0 Next week I plan to top cut the branches again and change out the feeds with 350ppm at 6.0ph

An excellent plant, steady growth and long stems. I spotted some calmag deficiency so I added some more. That’s for now 🌸

Update

Wazzuuuup guy’s? So it’s week 7, the lady’s are officially on the flowering stage!! (Since 4/10) It’s all going very well, they are happy and so am I, been watering every 3-4 days with 1.2l each (before flowering I’ve watered with approximately 2l) and they have good colour and you can see some stretch. Well, not much but they are trained after all 🤷‍♂️🏻 Just some yellow leafs below the canopy but guess that’s normal, they are really needing some defoliation but I’m going to wait 2-3 weeks because I don’t want to stress them on this early stage I’m thinking about adding the scrog net but I don’t know if it’s too late for that, what do you guys think?

D49 - Today is the first day in the seventh week of veg for #2 and the sixth for #1. It has been a week since I topped the first girl, so I went ahead and topped her for the third and final time. #2 is thriving, and I'm using LST to spread her out while keeping her flat. With the toppings now done, I can install the scrog net soon-ish. As for the thrips, I haven't noticed any additional damage, and hopefully, the mites are doing their thing. I realized, though, that I had one extra package of mites. Instead of waiting for slow release, I went full Rambo by cutting up the package and sprinkling the mites/sawdust all over the girls and soil. I also redirected the airflow to not blow directly on the plants. I'll leave the sawdust there until tomorrow and then brush it off. The slow-release bags are still on the plants, so there isn't much to lose with additional shock-and-awe tactics. DIE THRIPS!!! Finally, I started a compost tea heavy with neem meal, which should help create an inhospitable environment for the thrips. Worst case, I have neem oil, but I don't want to go down that route unless I have to. D53 - I did some additional LST to both girls and removed a few leaves and branches on the underside of #2. I also cut back the cover crop and gave each girl 2.5-liters of water @ pH 6.3. D55 - I gave both girls around 2.5-liters of compost tea @ pH 6.5. The first girl has bounced back strong after her final topping, and in a few days, it will be time to flip, but I need to do one last defoliation before that. Sorry about the porn-light pics. I was a bit late, and my lights had already gone into sunset mode.

Plant has now been moves outside in the terrible british weather. The plant is absolutely loving it. So many buds have developed and now turning a nice purple colour. Also now has a very sweet smell.

Läuft Läuft sogar hervorragend. Bin mal gespannt, wann sie in die preflower kommen. Müsste bald soweit sein. @ hope. Leute es macht einfach nur Spaß dabei, zuzuschauen wie sie wachsen. Jeden Tag gibt es was neues zu entdecken. Kein Wunder. Jetzt sind 3 äußerst mächtige Kandidaten im Reaktor . Der Favorit Sensi Seeds TITAN RESISTENT MÄCHTIG RESARCH OLD WORLD DIE HERAUSFORDERER: Fastbuds USA NEUE IDEEN SEHR ERFOLGREICH(bin neugierig warum) RESISTENT Seedstockers (Guerilla Kämpfer) GENIAL ODER WAHNSINNIG (ich werde es sehen, aber normal? Nein sind die nicht.) RESISTENT RIESIG (die ist anders gewesen, schon der Samen( schwärm)) WORLDWIDE GUTE VERBINDUNGEN ZU ANDEREN GUERILLA BREEDERS (man hört so Gerüchte) So long. Long enough. You see there only 2 plants left. What happens? Ill try to explain: Opaman. Opaman us over 60,, always smiling with a joint who goes along. Today he was not smiling. The joint goes along. "my friend, why re you sad today?" He looked in my eyes. He said one word. MÄHDRESCHER! Then both looked down to the ground. Jonny goes. I asked "all three?" He breathes hard out, no words. I said wait to him, went to my bike gave full throttle and went to where i live and stolen myself the GREAT ZKITTLEZ AUTO from F A S T B U D S!.! For all from USA and Kanada Russia, China, and Ostfriesland (this re examples of mighty big country's) I live in Legoland (Deutschland). I went from his village to mine 3 miles than back 3 miles. So i just needed 30 min for this way. FULL THROTTLE. Full Risk fast as i can. Ignored traffic signs. Speedlimits. Who cares. Full throttle with my 0,25 kw bicycle, just to see the smile comes back to Opaman eyes, as i gave him the plant.

Have some problem with bud leafs. It's looks like potassium def or maybe nut overdosing. My PPM meter was not accurate and I switched to another one. The old one showed 100 PPM less. Thats why I gave 800 PPM instead of 700 PPM

Banana Blaze this strain was really easy to grow also she was very resistant against stress. Smells super fruity but with a hint of diesel. I recommend this strain for beginners 😍👌

Day 28 flower, things are doing well, humidity and heat are stable, plucking off leafs as I go along now anything blocking bud sites. I'm on week 7 of the biobizz feed schedule full dose, these girls not showing any nute burn or stress so far either I could probably push them more. Day 33 from flip. Heat and humidity are under control. Sitting at 27°c and 40-47% humidity with lights on. And 20°c and 47% humidity lights off. Ph levels on feeds and watering is 6.5, there really loving the biobizz range and the marshydro tsl2000 combo. So today the plants are getting fatter and nice and dense. Its super sticky and stacking on trichomes. These 3 beans came from The same pack, and each one smells diffrent. Closest pheno is a really lemon citrus smell and its strong. Middle pheno is like a sherberty smell and really tickles the 👃. Pheno 3 at the back is like a lemon skunk, really pungent and its got the fattest buds so far too. Day 34 flower, Feeding molasses today in 6.5ph water, I will start the next week tomorrow and will be starting on week 8 of the bio bizz nutes schedule. Thanks for all your support so far. Keep on growing

Smells beautiful really can’t wait to crop her only 7 days left now this has been such a nice plant to grow she takes to topping very well and micro topping well and I now know where the name shinning silver haze comes from as she shines with thc proper happy with her

все еще продолжаю гнуть и подготавливать будущий ковер из БЛЭКДЖЕКА!

Day 99 F44 - I’m a little late on the update but this ladies are growing beautifully, this has to be the most resilient strain I have grown so far, with everything I thrown at them they still seem to be perfectly healthy & doing great! Can’t wait to see how this smokes, buds are finally start to fill out & get bigger! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🙏🏼🌱✌️🏼

Topped this girl this week, she’s growing pretty good. Very nice looking plant to my eye.

En esta semana mantendré todavía los Led por 24 horas al día, el EC lo tendré a 2,5, el PH tratare de mejorarlo, todavía lo tengo a 6,3 mas o menos. Las plantitas están creciendo bien, ya se ven las puntas de las raíces saliendo del substrato y tocando el agua. Para el fin de semana próximo cambiaré la solucion nutritiva y bajaré el nivel del agua. Decidí también poner un generador de CO2 casero(bidón con agua, levadura, azúcar y pulpa de tomates) consejo de mis amigos de zamnesia. En la semana nos iremos actualizando.

June 22: nice weather has finally arrived, and the plant is at the perfect growth stage to take advantage of warm 17 hours of sunlight days. She’s started into the “inch per day” vegetative growth stage which is always fun. She had compost tea yesterday morning and is looking really good right now. Cool spring has likely slowed growth but she’s ready to rock now with the arrival of nice weather. June 22: tied down with SCROG net attached to bag with large clips. Trying to keep the Eight growth tips at the same elevation and exposed to sun. June 24: tie down seems to have worked as there’s now 8 nice colas forming and lots of time to go for 16 before starting flowering in mid-July. June 25: looking good. Watered with some soluble seaweed extract and molasses. June 26: final round of topping to get 16 growth tips. Removed and replaced scrog net but still clipped to edge of bag. Seems fine for now and will readjust as the 16 colas form.

Week 5 ----- Day 29 ----- Fed 1100ppm at 6.4ph 23 Liters Everything's good. No real updates. Front right Glookies stretched a bit but has stopped. Plants are perfect, couldn't ask for a better beginning to week 5. *Update* Easy day, end of light cycle. 3 new pics. ---- Day 30 ----- Some fun photos today for this easy day. Humidity in basement FINALLY hit 40% this morning. Within 5 days it should be 30-35% residual basement and 45% tent for a good residual humidity. The hand shot has my fingers and palm forward from the bud tip, the bud tip is actually past my hand but it's nearly impossible to get a perfect shot with my arm in the tent and my other one far out trying to take a photo i can't see. The Tropicanna Popcorn nugs are already bigger than my thumb... gonna be fun in 4 weeks to see bud finishing sizes Wedding Cake - Cherry HubbaBubba smell Tropicanna Glookies - Pink Bubblegum with a strawberry like hint peaking through. Tomorrow is feeding. Today is just emptying water from buckets from dehumidifier. *knock on wood* it's easy streak from here on out... 35~ days roughly left. here we grow!! *** Update *** Took some measurements. Wedding cake is monstrous already. Upto 1.5 inch wide, 14inch long (it was longer than the 12" ruler). Popcorn nugs on Tropicanna Glookies already 1inch wide 3 inch long at the top. Beaaautiful. Slow and steady from here on out. ----- Day 31 ----- Beautiful as usual. Fattening up nicely. 1200 ppm 6.4 pH 23 Liters If anyone is wondering why I switched to Blackstrap Molasses I put up the Nutrition Facts.. in 20 grams you have carbohydrates, potassium, Calcium, Iron, B6 Vitamin, Magnesium, Zinc.. and that's only the "significant" nutrients (Human based for that picture) It also contains micro traces of copper and more. pH is quite nice too, with the nutrient regiment i'm on, it finishes itself at 6.4pH so I don't have to manipulate it with pH up/down... Loving everything so far. Humidity in basement was 39% today, SO damn close. Tent closed at lights on (highest residual humidity point) was at 48% ... woo hoo 3% more to go!!! ------ Day 32 ------ Wow. Wedding Cake larger buds I can't even wrap my hand around.. These buds are going to be mooooonstrous. Humidity was under 40% in basement, tent was 48% this morning. Great news for me. Easy day, pretty much standard operating procedures from here on out.. feed, drain dehumidifier, strengthen stems by shaking plants, open/close tents... rinse repeat. Both plants are amazing, great genetics so far regarding bud structure building/plant size. ----- Day 33 ----- 47.5% residual humidity Fed at 1150ppm 6.4pH 23L Everything's perfect, 30~ days left. ----- Day 34 ----- 48% humidity in tent, i'm a happy camper. Everything's perfect. Bulk has started, front right Tropicanna Glookies had double in thickness and diameter top buds of most stems. Wedding cake 14 inch stem I've named Big Bertha. Excited to watch her fatten up on the couch so-to-speak. I'm now on autopilot. Fed yesterday while half asleep, didn't even remember doing it. Thank god I take pics of ppm/pH before every feeding for data. One more feeding this week before week 6 happens tomorrow. This week Liquid Koolbloom ends, KoolBloom Dry begins for maximum bulk on week 6 first feeding (2 days into week 6) ----- Day 35 ----- Last day of week 5!!! Fed at 1150ppm 6.4ph 23L Plants are perfect, humidity is great. Smell is RAMPED up now. Strong candy weed smell.
