The beginning of Week 6 of Flower and boy is she getting stinky. I have high hopes for this plant to live up to her name .

I had a few issues throughout I think the preflowers were the main beginning of the issues as I expected the orange sherbet too find further issues as she was so small. We continued with strawberry being okay but not what I want personally and the orange sherbet in honesty not great due too late flush... I think mixing pjotoperiod and autos was utterly confusing for myself so have opted too auto feed everything and maintain autoflowers only from when my fastflowering strains finish. A long cure for the strawberry gorrila she would of excelled without issues no doubt as can see the lovely flowers previous too harvest. Orange sherbet ff still going so go check her out with full veg time 🌱

Long time extractor, first time growing (both s/o and myself). Already starting the next grow. This was one plant/pheno in a 4x4 sharing a 600w light @ 75% or less the entire time. Only tracking ONE PLANT this harvest but for reference - we pulled just over a lb dry weight total from all 4. End dry weight - Buds: 104 grams - Sugar Trim - 35 grams End flower rosin - 14.5 grams (1st press) - 1.2 grams (2nd press) [Press 96 grams] ~15% yield (not great but expected from autoflower) Chopped a little earlier than desired (10/70/20 amber/cloudy/clear profile) due to a scare of a nanner. Being new growers, we recently learned we could have plucked the nanner off and let it flower another couple weeks. Dried branches at 65-70f/55-60rh for 7 days then stored in grove bags until pressed in 37u micron bag, ~180f, 2.5min.

Last 2 weeks before I put her in a 3 day dark period! I’m no longer giving any nutrients and I’m letting the plant deplete all the nutrients in the soil, I’m also only using water for now own. I have her in a 11.5 hour light schedule. There’s slight nutrient burning too on some parts but it’s nothing drastic.

Lessons learned from week 1 of my first grow so far: the best watering solution I found so far is a mix of distilled water from the store and filtered tap water. with a final ph of 6 and ppm of 20-40. a little ph buffer goes a bloody long way. Use with caution. performing tasks like mixing solution and potting a germinated seed are best performed without a phone (camera) in one hand. the seed germinated within 24 hours using paper towels. I planted after 36 hours. After 24 hours of potting, the stem was already shooting up, and I turned on the lights, set to an 18 hour schedule. I wasn't quite ready for this, so it took me some time to research and get the desired humidity and temperature. At this point I added more nutrient in even quantities of FloraGro, FloraMicro, and FloraBloom, according to instructions. Perhaps a little early though, although after just one 18 hour light cycle this plant is shooting up like a rocket and showing leaves. I bought a fan for the inside of the tent and propped it up on a box, and a humidifier to bring the humidity from 40-50% to around 70%. Since it's a winter grow, I have to periodically increase the temperature to keep it at 25 Β°C. The intake fan, humidifier, and inside fan are significantly lowering the temperature. I'm also experimenting with finding the right humidifier settings since the humidity seems to increase a lot when the lights go out, and the machine is still new.

The 3rd week was a big one all plants finished stretch period and it was becoming a little wild for a second. I moved 4 of the bigger girls into their own room with their own 1000w LED plus a shared 250w HPS in the center. I will be tying down branches to get flat canopy then each of the 4 will be pushed more towards the center for better light coverage do not mind the setup its not fully there but will be finished before the end of the week. In the main grow room there is a single 1000w HPS cool tube running at 100%. To remove the 4 bigger plants I had to cut the entire trellis off the canopy but will be placing a new layer this week as well. As for nutrients feedings well clearly from the size of these girls you can tell they have been eating. In about 2 weeks I will defoliate one last time and then its them vs. the world til havest. Happy Growing!

So far only Pink kush by Seedsman wants to flower, so much so that she didn’t respond well to the N in the nutes. I started bloom bites in her and reduced the amount of N to 50%, hopefully that will keep her calm. All Mephistos are sexed but they still haven’t wanted to start flowering, that’s cool for now though because alien berries and strawberry skywalker needs to catch up. They are still being fed veg nutes. Also, I had topped dressed with some dynomyco and I have to say I noticed a difference when I did that. Growth shortly became explosive.

Seedlings stretched a bit had to put them under the light early. Popped 2 seeds initially with 2 freebies I got, unfortunately the freebies didn't germinate in a week so I tossed them and popped two more Dolatos and all four germinated with 100% success rate. Kept them on a 20/4 schedule watering them only once and sprayed the top soil with a mister every now and again. πŸ‘πŸΏ

On day 1 the rez is at 6.2. The highest cola is 8.5" from the light. On day 2 the rez is at 6.2. The highest cola is 7.75" from the light. On day 3 the rez is at 6.1. The highest cola is 7.5" from the light. On day 4 the rez is at 6.3. The highest cola is 7.125" from the light. On day 5 the plants are smelling and doing well. On day 6 I changed out the rez and PH to 6.1. The highest cola is 7" from grow light stretch is deff slowing down and should be over shortly. My avg PPFD at canopy is around 800. On day 7 the rez ph is 6.0. The highest cola is still 7" away from light πŸ˜… close but not too close in my small space.

Lamp has changed. Veg stage is on, so 600W lamp is placed to be in the tent and the watering is 2 x 15 ml 2 x a day so 30 ml water per plant. Ventilation goes on at the same time like the lamp does. These girls grow so fast. They started smelling as well. Light schedule is 20 hours on and 4 hours off. Ventilation is the same hours when the lamp is on the ventilation is on as well. When lamp is off I leave the ventilation on 15 min more. Fertilization will start also on Monday, Wednesday, Friday the same amount of water with bat guano mix. I will be back after 2 weeks from my holiday.

🌱 Runtz - Week 1 Update 🌱 The journey has officially begun, and I’m thrilled to report that everything is off to a smooth start! The seeds germinated quickly and showed no issues breaking through the soil. Healthy and vigorous growth is already visible, which is always an encouraging sign. The seedlings are now standing strong, with their first leaves fully open and soaking up the light. It’s exciting to see this strain already showing its potential! Looking forward to seeing how they progress over the next week. Wishing all the growers in this competition continued success with their own grows! Let’s keep pushing πŸ™Œ

I have to say, overall out of all 5 purple Lemonade seeds I’m not very happy with the results so far considering they was a little more pricey & the fact that I know how good these plants can turn out! Not sure if I just got some bad genetics or what’s up but pretty bummed about this run so farπŸ˜…πŸ˜… hopefully things will start to look up! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!✌️🏼🌱 Day 24 - Decided to pull the smallest purple lemonade that wasn’t doing anything so I can go ahead and get something else going in it’s place! Watered the other ladies today. Day 25 - Ladies are still stretching like crazy!

8/9 It didn't rain last night and there is no rain in the forecast so I lightly watered. I actually had a copper fungicide in my hand yesterday but decided against buying it after research saying it burn cannabis. I didn't research enough and I may end up going that route. I may also move the problem plant. We shall see. Instead I treated all plants early this morning with the amazing Dr. Zymes. I'll follow up with another form of treatment and see what happens. All around I can see foliage with septoria. Not around my grow but still. It's in the area. Burdocks, maple trees and other small foliage on the ground. I hate having to make decisions like this. Otherwise plants seem to be doing great. Definitely transitioning to flower. Found moth eggs and damage on inner leaves in the pm. 8/10 No water today as the plants were soaked. It rained last night. 68 at 9am. This morning I defoliated and really got on the inside of my plants. I wanted to see if I could find what was damaging leaves. I found an earwig on a plant. That makes me fairly certain they are responsible for the sporadic damage I'm finding. Lower branches have some small leaves dying and in a couple spots it looks like the ate off a bud site. It was were I would've lollipoped but still. I think another application of Spinosid may be needed. Plants are definitely in flower with the dreamcatcher's leading the bunch with small little buds formed. Flowering seems much later than the strains I grew last year. I need to go in the cage at night with some kind of light to see what's going on then. pH meter wouldn't read. 8/11 It had rained earlier but it's been so hot that the plants needed water. I watered but not thoroughly as pots weren't completely dried out. I didn't see any earwigs. I was prepared this time with a spray bottle with dawn. That is supposably supposed to kill them on contact. Unfortunately I haven't had the opportunity to test it. I did find a jpn beetle this morning. I believe they may be responsibly for some of the damage I've noticed. I had a very early appointment this morning so I didn't get a chance to take any pictures or a chance to feed. Plants are definitely flowering. The seedling (I say seedling only because the others are clones) in the 50 gallon pot hasn't been watered as much and I'm not sure if I have been watering enough. I figured the rain would help but I noticed that the soil is very compressed and appeared dry before watering. I also had no idea how much the nutrients effect the pH of the water after added. I have the drops I use to measure pH but that's basically impossibly with big bloom murking the water all up. Also I don't think the plant I was going to cull has leaf septoria. I think it's just been ravaged by pests and has white powder mildew. I will continue to monitor. Temps are supposed to be very high the next few days. 8/12 Fed two gallons to the garden today. Used tiger bloom as I think it plays better. I'll use the Kool bloom though. I do need to say my plants were much further along by now last year. Different strains though. Added a pinch of pH up but it appears the pH is fine after mixing my nutes. Rained AGAIN last night. All this rain brings the earwigs out to climb plants. I included a picture of the damage. I need to do another app of Spinosid it appears. Then alternate with a spray treating the wpm that I see. It's a bad year for mildew. UPDATE 90 degrees out at 2pm. Defoliated the dead spots inside and looked to see what kind and how much damage from ear wigs. It's all minor but still. A few lower branches (bottom that probably should've been clipped) have shoots that are damaged. At spots it appears the earwigs lollipopped the stem. Nothing up high or middle though. Buds are developing and they (luckily) haven't gotten there. I've tried a few things already but today I put petroleum jelly on all my stocks and supports so hopefully those little bastards can't get up to the plant. If the rain laid off it would probably be better. Not a single aphid though and no signs of typical cannabis pests so I guess it's a little give and take. Made a video but will have to upload later. 8/13 Didn't water this morning. A storm came through at 6pm last night. Torrential rain and high winds but no damage. Found more moth eggs and two spots where leaves were rolled up with webbing and inch worms emerged when opened. Other growers suggested the damage could be from inch worms so I think before I do much else I'll apply BT tonight.today is going to be even hotter than yesterday. 85 at 9:30. Will update as I progressed. Added a video. 8/14 Watered this morning as it's been dreadfully hot. In the 90s with super high humidity. Found another leaf with moth eggs and a inch worm crawling on a bud. I did a treatment of BT this morning that I hope will take care of things. Plants look amazing. Walking down to the cage I get hit in the face with a pungent skunky smell. Plants are huge and seem to be flowering more everyday. Strange the amount of difference I notice in just a days time. 8/15 No water today as it rained yesterday off and on and soil was damp. Plants are flowering nice with dreamcatcher in the lead and ice cream cake bringing up the rear. Everyday the little buds seem a little bigger. I will probably need to do another application of BT since it rained yesterday. Still finding some lower branches stripped of new growth shoots where a bud site should be. I don't know if inch worms are capable of this or whether it's earwigs. I WILL find out though. I'll go out LATE tonight and look with a flashlight and spray bottle. Smell is incredible. As long as we have a nice September and a warm fall this is going to be a good year. It got down to like 50 last night but it was 90 yesterday. These plants are resilient to take temp changes like that without it phasing them.
