Buenas, las plantas ya pasaron la fase de pre-floración, justo a los 21 días le hice la última defoliación. He intentado dejarle solo un par de nudos o tres, por arriba, estilo lollipopping, está técnica de poda agresiva, está mas vista en América, no tanto por aquí, por España. Estaremos atento a ver como le va esta poda a este cultivo🙌 Le aumenté la base de fertilizante, ya que en esta fase, la planta necesita más alimento, para cambiar su metabolismo, para florecer en óptimas condiciones. Ahora comienza el engorde de la flor, espero veros de nuevo la semana que viene por aquí😊 Un saludo y buenos humos!

12/12 - Pinky is doing her Pinky thing again... some leaves are curling down and I basically blew a raspberry at her this morning... It's almost as if she is double-daring me to actually go into a frenzy trying to correct it - but what's to correct? Half of the leaves are curling down, half of them are perfect... so if I try to fix the curling, what happens to the ones that are perfect??? So I blew a raspberry at her and told her to just do her thing... Sigh. She's also doing her sativa thing - holy cow! I had to double check her height this morning because I couldn't believe it! 10" in a week... she's now standing taller than #2Bruce who is sitting right beside her... Cripes! If I ever grow a Sativa again, I'm going to aggressively LST it from germination! This is bloody ridiculous! Meanwhile, in her 5th week on this planet and in her 2nd week of flower, the flowers are slow to develop (no wonder... damned plant is putting everything into trying to reach my 7' ceiling!). She and I have a weird relationship... on MY end, it's a love/hate relationship but for her, I think she just loves taunting me.... 12/13 - Well. I've never had THAT happen before! Her EC and her pH are EXACTLY the same as yesterday! Maybe she's chortling away at us after I blew some raspberries at her yesterday! Maybe she's saying "oh, ok... she's on to me, I guess I'll have to quit being a goof" ... but maybe she's got something else up her sleeve she'll hit me with tomorrow? Don't trust her... I really don't! LOL! 12/15 - Had a bucket change yesterday and today she's telling me I didn't give her enough PK... what a cheeky little gal... so I obliged her wanton hunger. I didn't want to give more of the KoolBloom as you can really overdo it with that so I just fed her 3 more tsps of the Bloom... and she's happy! :-D 12/17 - I am completely entranced with this lady... mesmerized...

Week 7 for Black Lebanon by SSSC She seems fairly happy she's still not exploding how id like her to but i don't think the roots have started getting around the bigger pot yet putting in mind how much it rained on her after it was transplanted. Haven't even fed her in the last 2 weeks 😂 these bigger pots really catch a lot of rain 😅 Trying to give her some time to dry up so the roots can explode. Likely to not be feeding her this up coming week either as we have 2/3 days of rain coming up still😪 Im sure in no time she will take it up a gear growth wise. I tend to not touch her too much because every time i go to say hello we have some big jumping spiders on her i know she's here to help but Jesus i hate those things 😂😂

I think everything is fine with this little girl, except for the insects' marks, she is beautiful and she is showing more dense coloring, because at night the cold is noticeable, you can even look at red or pink hairs, it is beautiful and begins to smell very rich, like a wood varnish

Started a little training, cut down the older fan leaves and topped up. I’m adding a tiny bit of root stimulator cause changed the pot size last week so it will to promote a faster growth. Gotta keep this lady low cause the box is quite small. So excited 😆

I was told this is a 1:1 CBD strain but feels more like a 2:1 Ok so this plant yelded large , thick and dense flowers that are completely covered in sugar , The flavour and smell is fantastic even without a cure , I've been using this in the vapourisor and the flavour is incredible , A very thick and heavy gas that does not make you cough at all , and for me it's a very heavy head high and then you get a very pleasant feeling in your lungs and chest , The effect is very relaxing and claiming , For me it's all you expect from cannabis without the head f*CK It's a really nice smoke indeed , Too the point that I think I will not be turning this plant into oils as in the decarbing temperature you need too choice ether the CBD or the thc at they both decarb at different temperatures CBD needing alot higher temp too activate than thc does , so you ether burn off the thc too get the CBD , so I think this will be my night time chillax smoke as it's real nice ,

Smells like Rubber bands coated in a berry sugar or berry sryup very interesting on the nose! Harvested day 67 ish maybe a couple more hard ot tell outdoor Split the harvest into drying buds and some to made into fresh frozen hash. i can dry weigh the fresh frozen buds and put that weight in the wet section and i will put the to smoke buds in the dry weight section so total between the two will be the whole plant Drying was a big mishap got condensation around day 10 of drying and it caused some mold 🤦‍♂️ right around the time i was going to cure! Found a peroxide soak that ill post butt it seemed to take off all the mold without affecting tricomb heads! Had to re dry for another week afterward i feel like the re dry maybe messed with the terps because it definitely never got the smell back like i thought but who knows slmost 3 weeks into cure coukd get better but doubt it

Day 34 - 14/01/20 Smoothie auto is gonna be a hell of a strain! i broke the bottom most branch off as the fan leaf was sticking into the dirt and the sap from inside the branch was just stinking of fruits and skittles basically! All of my plants are basically the same height (46-47cm) even my cayenne pepper plant which is in full flowering and should be ready in about 3 weeks! Chefk the pictures/videos i added and let me know what you all think in the comments :) Thanks for checking out my diary and il update again soon.

Hey Guys, so I have ran into some difficulties regarding our power supplier. Due to the current situation we are facing in South Africa the power company "Eskom" does not have ample supply to provide constant electricity to our country anymore. This is very sad. So they implement a system called "loadshedding" where the cut off power supply in certain suburbs at certain times. This has got me in a complete and utter flat spin as I'm not always at home when this happens. The past 2 weeks have been immensely rough as we we're scheduled for outages 3 times a day for 2,5 hour intervals. Between 02:00AM - 06:30 my tent's power went off (depending on scheduled time). This has in fact caused some VPD problems ( I tried getting up every night, but I still have to get enough sleep for work ). As you can imagine, it sucks BIG TIME. I've done my best to keep at par & doctored where I could. *Decreased Light Intensity (600W) *Decreased Wind Velocity on canopy Almost approaching the start of week 3. Feeding schedule from 3 day interval - 2 day interval ( 2L per feed ) Selective defoliation to get light on lower tops. Used some garden wire to support 2 main colas which we're too high. Note: Pest/Mould check done. Foliar sprayed with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) @ coolest part of day - Next day applied high alkalinity ph'd water to kill mildew spores - Fan heater running from 03:30AM - 06:00AM, pulsing/regulating temp at 19-21°C [ until light comes on ] Grow Logging Light Distance From Canopy = 65cm Substrate Temp = 16 C Substrate PH = 6.0 Normal - Moist Level 79cm = Scrog Net Height 95cm = Tree Height PPFD = 20.1 C = Tent 45% RH

Diese Woche hat sich einiges getan, die Blueberry hatte kurzzeitig starken Kalzium,Mangel der aber gut behoben werden konnte mit Canna Mono Kalzium und zusätzlich Bittersalz. Sie ist ein richtiges Monster geworden ❤️❤️❤️ Das Bewässerungssystem arbeitet hervorragend und funktioniert auch zusätzlich sehr gut, um gewisse Mängel auszugleichen, wie zum Beispiel den Kalzium Mangel.

Alien Vs Triangle is taking off. I topped, bent and defoliated this week and she loved it, she doubled in size this week! At this pace she might turn out to be my biggest plant. Looking forward to the next few weeks.

The ladies have fully recovered from whatever nutrient issues I was having. I think the answers hit the nail on the head when it came to ph imbalance, too high EC (too much nutrients) except for a lack of potash. I cut my nutrients down, lowered the PH, and added in more bloom this time around. So far they look great!

The wedding cake is ok for this week I'm curious to see how it comes out . This week I started to feed again because on my auto I have noticed that it started to get what looks like a calmag issue. And it's in the same soil to. She has very tight internode spacing also a indica look to her will grow her out for a while yet before switching to flower .I like to have 1 big photo period and a main crop of autos .thank you for looking at the diary and will be updating every week 👍

Still a few week before harvest. I have stopped adding N as much as possible to my nutrient solution. It might help the bud swell up a little more the last few weeks. Also been adding big bud and bud candy from Advanced Nutrients. I will feed the girls 2 weeks more before going into flush. My soil Sour diesel is ready for flush anytime soon. #1 (back right) have suffered from being to close to the light while also not having enough airflow around it. Have fixed the air problem but cant bring my light any further up. kept around 22 cm from the tallest branch 30< cm from the rest which is the minimum recommended. They smell really pungent and the suger leafs and buds are coted with crystals. My autoflower (front left) is doing good too and i really cant wait to taste it. A good week (kinda)

OG Kush, aka Olga was easy to grow. She was the tallest at 31 inches and had strong stems to support her buds. However, being the tallest, she suffered the most heat stress and was the first to show cal-mag deficiency. Og Kush aka Olga, was my first diary, initially planned to combine all my plants in one until I found out that for contests, you have to have single strain. So I jumped in feet first and ran 3 separate diaries. This was a bit much for me. I am totally inexperienced on growing cannabis, much less track the grow with all the nuances on an unfamiliar platform. I really intended to enter Olga in the Newbie contest, but I woke up one morning and Bam, I was an apprentice. With 3 failed germinations, 3 new diaries and no harvest surely was not deserving at that time. Because I'm running 3 diaries, when growmies visited, they checked out all of them and my likes increased significantly. 3 diaries 15 weeks,=45. easy to see the math. So here I am. First, I want to thank Andrew @LegacyMarketFarms for introducing himself to me my first week here. He invited me to his tutorial videos on Youtube. Every Sunday I watched one or two weeks at a time while I folded the laundry. I watched some over and over, taking notes along the way finding tips for that weeks progress. While I could understand many of the concepts, I never quite achieved them. I struggled with VPD in many forms: from not enough humidity during Veg to too much RH during flower. It's a world turned upside down. I was happy when he was recognized as a Guru 👏. Congrats again Andrew. Secondly, Warm thanks to @Ex_Alchemist and @StarLorr for helping me with platform technology problems. After emails to GD went unanswered, they offered suggestions for me to try and fix. When I kept getting blocked, they listened to me express my frustrations and anxiety this was giving me. They kept encouraging me to hang in there. I was ready to quit but I know I need to be here. My apologies to all that got blocked for 7 hours because you visited my diaries. Thanks for sticking around anyway. And my apologies to those that I did not chat with following a visit or comment because I was blocked. It is a two-way street. A big thanks to @m0use. Your comment on Premium Cultivars, made my light bulb click on for what was causing my continued 7 hour punishments. I had links in my diary comments to other cannabis sites, electroculture, recipe sites. etc. Since I've cleaned up the links, I haven't been blocked😊👏. Thanks to all the growmies that responded to my grow questions. Particularly my medical question as that is why I'm here. You shared with me your personal journeys and health issues and what works for you and what might be good strains for me to start with. I won't name names; you know who you are. My prayers 🙏 and blessings to each of you For all of my questions, I had a difficult time choosing the best answer. Know that I have learned from al of you. I'm here to learn to grow and have fun doing it. I entered some contests but no luck. My curiosity got the better of me and I went looking at the champions DreamIt @Ju_Bps, @gottagrowsometime, @love_2_grow, @ZombieKushAddicted and so many more diaries with contest wins. I saw beautiful plants, perfectly grown, but also fun presentations using technology. There's that word again. My extra special thanks 😘 to @DreamIt who has spent hours tutoring me in video technology. How to make a video, add music and add an avatar. I have a few short videos but while the music i selected was perfect for the theme, the music has copyrights and doesn't upload. I'll keep trying. In closing this diary OG Kush (Olga) and grow cycle with Purple Chill (Penny) and Gorilla Glue (Gigi). My thanks go out to all of you for assisting on those diaries as well. My sincere thanks to all that visited, liked, commented and/ or followed me. Happy growing and have fun.

Mostly the same conditions. I have one girl that’s maturing more quickly than the other. Struggling through what I believe is a phosphorus deficiency in both plants. It happened literally overnight. I’m hoping this doesn’t hurt my yields too badly
