Compost tea turned out well and if your curious about the microscopy, check the comments on my GMP grow. No signs of senescence yet so no feed needed, they are in a second run of the same soil so there should be plenty in there from before. Not very resinous or smelly, with weird wide stumpy buds. Definitely my least fav pheno of any plant I've grown so far, but it's the end product we're after so she may yet surprise.

The plant is ripening, leaves are turning yellow and harvest day is coming closer. Until now, I can not really say, that this strain is a " lemon Cherry Cookie ". Unfortunately I can not say, that I smell cherry, lemon or cookies. I have had other strains, which were definitely more on the lemon side or cherry, which I did not make a diary a out. Sometimes, she smells very sweet, a bit like over ripened fruit. A positive thing: her buds are really beautiful. The colour is really nice and she is not a hungry plant. Until now , I could not see any signs of mold, even though the weather is not that optimal. If you have space on your balcony and you like to see some purple bud, you could give this a try. If your liking for extraordinary terpenes, I would choose a different strain . I'm waiting for harvest, to look out for how much she will hit, on grams and effect.

Day 134 - We enter the 12th week of flower. I forgot to mention that I gave 2 gallons of water again yesterday, though the runoff seemed to be about half as much as the previous time that I watered. I did topdress with a touch of new Mother Earth Coco Peat, but I wouldn't have imagined it would have soaked up as much additional water as it did. I imagine doing so will give the plants just a touch more nutrients while just watering, and should hopefully allow me to at least get through this week, possibly a touch longer. The trichs all appear cloudy, but the pistils still stand up a bit much, so I want to take this as long as possible, without extending it too much further. Day 135 - Seems that last little top dress of medium has slowed/stopped what seemed to be the start of autumning off. I'm actually kind of happy with that, as it may allow me to get another couple days of finishing out of the plant. While I don't want to wait much longer, I would like to see some more pistils receding/turning color. Day 136 - Watered today, just under 2 gallons. After a couple days of getting lots of runoff, I feel safe that most of the medium will be cleaned of any salt residues that may have been left. At this point, I will basically just water until runoff for the last feed or two. Day 137 - As I wait for these last few days to count down to harvest, I can only think that it is hard to 'plan' a grow before you start. These beans were listed as 8-10 weeks, I started flowering at the beginning of March, and figured by the end of April I should be close to a harvest. Well, as we sit here, close to the end of May, it is finally getting close to that harvest, though at times I feel like I should be waiting multiple more weeks on the plant. Day 138 - I don't have much to say about today. I started a new job tonight, working the overnight shift, so I will end up only getting a couple hours of 'day' time with the plant now in her final days. She will be watered tomorrow when I get home from work. Day 139 - This new job is less than ideal for the flowering times I currently have, but there is minimal (probably 7-10 days) time left before I chop her. Lights are on from 10p-10a, and I work from 10p-6a, not getting home until close to 7. She was watered when I got home today, and so as long as she doesn't fade out too quickly, I will be chopping around the 1st of June. She will approach 90 days of flower time from a listed 56-63 day strain. I have said it many times, but still a waiting game at this point. Day 140 - The 20th week of growing, 12th week of flower is now complete. It appears that the leaves are slowly starting to yellow a bit more. Getting close! She is either going to get harvested this weekend, or next weekend (figure it will just be easier to do when I'm not working).

Well week 15 and 5th week of flower started yesterday, 9/12. I did a little more defoliation over the weekend, maybe cut 20 leaves altogether. Everything is still looking good. Temps are good, rh is good, airflow is definitely good. And judging by the frosty trichs that are showing I'd say everything is right on schedule. Starting to get more smell. That's about it for now. Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️

🌳 Week 13: Well, they're happy... almost too happy! The canopies are filling up again and getting incredibly dense down below. Especially with the squatter, Indica-leaning strains, I'm honestly getting concerned that they might be too dense, and cause mold issues. We do not want that! So, they all came out of the tent again and got their most aggressive cleanup yet. I took more bottom branches off and made more clones, and then also just cut out some other smaller branches, particularly ones that were growing back inward or in some cases even crossing over others. The differences between the indicas and sativas are starting to become more apparent as the plants stretch, and some of the sativas are almost 16" tall. I actually ended up topping a couple of the very tallest branches before they stretched any further, again in an effort to keep the top of the canopy as level as possible. I'm also experimenting with using some wire rings as inserts to spread out the top of the canopy, and pretty pleased with the initial results.

Primera semana de floración y a medida que crecen los brotes los voy pasando bajo la malla tratando de dejar los brazos más altos en las orillas, se ha regado foliarmente con delta 9 el cual se dio en dosis baja al sustrato al comenzar fotoperiodo de floración.

6.1. - Plants are looking very good. First branches are already developing, so I guess I will have to start with LST soon. 8.1. - First branches are shooting out, leaves and plants overall are getting bigger. I hope they'll keep this tempo and health. Watered. 9.1. - Today I've decided to apply some LST and I accidentally snapped off the main stem of one Creamatic. I've fixed it back with tape, but not sure how it will end. 😔 10.1. - I've checked the broken plant and decided to remove that part. Plant already started focusing on the branches that are left, so basically one plant was topped unintentionally ✂️ 11.1. - Week wrap-up: Well, this week was half fail half success. Plants are growing fast and healthy, however I've managed to fuck them up a bit as usual. One accidentally topped plant and one with broken but healing branch. I've decided to give up on the LST of main stems completely. I will let them grow up and just spread the branches with wires. Hope next week will be more successful ✌️ 5.1. - 11.1.2024

| 📅 Week 4 | Days 22 - 28 | 💡 562w 📏40' | | ☔ 29%-38% | | 🌡️️🌞 76 - 79 | | 🌡️️🌑 73 - 75 | 11/30 Reservoir swap with increased nutrients and PH adjusted to 5.8. The girls have really been growing well the last few days. 12/01 PH adjusted to 5.6. Temperatures have been steady and are in a good zone currently. LST will begin tomorrow. 12/02 Reservoirs topped off and PH adjusted to 5.8. Low stress trained the tops down. Nutrient flush for 2 plants in reaction to a Nitrogen Toxicity. 12/03 No water needed added. PH adjusted to 5.6 and light was raised a few more inches to match growth. Looking healthy right now. 12/04 Reservoirs are pretty stable and PH has hardly changed. There are fairly Ideal conditions environmentally at the moment. 12/05 PH adjusted to 5.8 and LST readjusted to maximize light penetration. Nutrients added back to the flushing plants with no FloraMicro. 12/06 Reservoirs topped off and PH adjusted to 5.8. Low stress training the canopy to be even and low. I love seeing the tent fill up Overall this weeks growths was fantastic and the before/after really shows it. Seeing a Timelapse really puts it into perspective how fast they grow week to week. Hopefully we have another full week of veg on these girls before they decide to start flowering. That's probably not the case, but we can hope! Week 5 is going to be exciting nonetheless 😎

Days 35-42 (Day 36) Some minor problems starting to arise here. A few times this week it got up to 90+ degrees which I think may have caused a bit of heat stress in some of the plants. I’m seeing a bit of cupping/crinkles on some of the fan leaves and some of the new growth is looking pretty gnarled and twisted. I hear windburn can cause this too so I’m turning my fans down to low speed. This could also be a problem with humidity so I’m going to turn off my humidifier, dim the lights and raise them. During my last feeding I mulched in some worm castings but it seems like they’re keeping the soil/coco from drying out. Pots are still decently heavy and even the surface is still quite moist but they aren’t showing any major signs of overwatering. I figure it will only be a few weeks before the castings break down so I will just leave it. A few of the plants are starting to show yellowing leaf tips which is probably some kind of micro nutrient lockout from my PH being slightly too high. It could also be from nute burn so I will water in 6.0 until I see some runoff. Although the most likely culprit is potassium excess. I’ve been feeding potassium almost as much as nitrogen so far. I know that can cause the yellowing of leaf tips by locking out trace minerals. It can also cause leaf problems like crinkling. Excess K can even cause water retention! Will water at 6.0 until run off next watering. The lst is coming along nicely. It was a good idea to remove the first two sets of branches (not leaves). Now I have 4-6 perfectly even stems coming from each plant that I plan to top one more time each. (Day 37) Today I’m going to vacuum, clean, wipe down and spray all my equipment in the tent. I’ve been letting the floor get quite dirty and I haven’t had the chance for a thorough clean since last round. I’m kind of surprised I haven’t seen any powdery mildew yet. I guess the prevention spray is working because the room has to be infected from my last crop. (Day 40) I was reading that you can foliar spray whatever you are deficient in for an immediate uptake. I‘m going to try that with my current potassium excess since it locks out trace minerals. I’m going to foliar feed a bit of phytoplankton at 15ml/L and some MagnifiCal + VeloKelp from Remo nutrients both at 5ml/L. The cal mag is not organic but as long as it’s not going into the soil and doesn’t contain chlorine I’m fine with it. I’m also going to be changing the light cycle to 18/6 for the remainder of veg. This will be their first dark cycle so they can properly foliar feed. Edit: humidity shot up to 85% a few hours after foliar spray. I went to top dress everything today and I mixed up the plants while doing so! So the ones I was unsure about I gave 1 extra tablespoon. I won’t top dress again for at least 10 days. Might give a light tea sometime next week. I also tilled the shit out of the top of each pot. It had a hard crusty layer on top that was keeping the medium from drying out properly. I’m not going to water again until everything is bone dry. Then I will water until slight runoff at 6.0 ph with some Dr. Marijane bacteria/root probiotic. I’m starting too see a lot more of these abrasions on some of the bigger fan leaves. It almost looks like thrip damage but I’m 100% sure it’s not a pest above ground. It could be bulb mites, which I found in my worm castings but I can’t check until the roots are more established in their pots. The leaves themselves are cold and feel damp to the touch. I haven’t even seen a fungus gnat since I last fed. I’m hoping it’s related to the K excess and clears up with the troubleshooting. (Day 41) Just ordered a wire cube rack to prop my plants up with and help evaporation/root warmth. Each cube is 11.8”x11.8”x11.8” and it comes with 16 cubes. So it will fit just perfectly in my 4x4. Depending on the size, I might order another one for the flower room where I would need 25 cubes.

Well this week has gone a bit pear shaped. I think it is a combination of light stress and the new soil I'm using. Also the soil had fungus gnats. I won't use it again but it was an experiment and I've learnt that soil isn't my substrate of choice! Back to my super coco mix! 😁 I'm going to see if I can pull it through. I've got plants through worse! Wish me luck. I watered twice this week with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6-6.5, containing 1ml of Ecothrive Trace and 1/4 TSP Ecothrive Biosys. I will say that the soil is very difficult for me to judge the moisture level to water accordingly. Have I mentioned it don't like soil? 😒💚😂🍃✌️ Thanks for checking out my diary this week, I'm sorry its not a better update, but wish me luck! I'm going to need it here! 😂💚✌️
