I am feeding with tps one and CalMag oac one time, then it’s back to regular tap water (well water) that comes at 8.5 pH with 156ppm of tds. The feed was approx a pH of 6.5. More importantly is the consistent soil pH which appears fixed at 6.8 I know it’s lazy! However…. I have noticed doing this to reveal to me that the soil pH is very stubborn and not easily changed by the pH of the water alone. Stuff in the water can definitely have an impact. But still, most feed waters I use don’t change the soil ph. I do make sure the pH is within a healthy range for soil, something between 6 and 7 I figure is ideal. I’ve found if there is enough lime in the mix, and as long as I don’t over feed soluble nutes, then the soil pH appears stable and fixed. With enough lime in the mix, I can ultimately arrest the soil pH at 7. It’s really cool. I thought adding too much lime would give me something potentially alkaline, and maybe it will. But I’ve added lots of lime before and still haven’t gotten past 7 pH. Maybe I didn’t add enough to go further? Nevertheless I’m not interested in going past 7. I haven’t seen any issues with the speed of growth watering with 8.5 tap water, surprisingly. As I’ve said the soil pH would read 6.8 before and immediately after watering with the 8.5 tap. So….. I’m thinking the stability of the soil pH is a positive indication that the microbes are not being subjected to pH shifts, or at least nothing substantial. I mean, at the end of the day when things are looking good, I feel like I must have something right.

Day 78 - Ripening a. the buds are gaining more and more weight, humidity 45% b. the resin is dripping from the buds, the amount of resin on this plant is next level c. smelling this plant when I open the tent I smell floral fruity tones Day 79 - more resin a. the glands on this plant keep growing upward and multiplying all over the buds b. buds fattening Day 80 - buds are rock hard a. the colas are very dense, even the buds down the limbs are dense! Day 81 - the smell is so strong! a. glad I use carbon filter in this box, this plant smells crazy good like most citrus weed you've ever smelled. b. I clipped a bud, dried it safely, smoked .25g in a bong and the effects are already super strong. c. trichomes are about 60% milky, a few ambers here and there, still plenty of clears to let ripen. Day 82 - her pistils are 70% brown/orange - buds are becoming blue! Video uploaded a. the colas are very tight and dense with their leaves all being yellow now, many are able to remove by hand with no effort except the huge amount of resin holding them in. I will not remove any because I will be making hash later on. b. the buds are turning a nice blue color. I will be going the distance with this plant! c. Trichomes are 80% white, 20 % clear with a few ambers here and there, still needs more time! DWC and autos always take a little longer due to the abundance of readily available nutrients in the water pool. Day 83 - ripening fast! Blue Gelato buds! a. turned lights down to 50% intensity b. will begin the flushing process tomorrow Day 84 - We will begin the flush! a. I will use Florakleen to flush the ladies for a few days, then I will harvest b. the trichome production is next level with this plant

Welcome visitors to growfessor theatre! Tonight we have LSD and Green Crack entering their final week, 9F, with a flush! The LSD still has a strong fruity, citrus smell, lots of frost and is very sticky. The buds are not as large as I was hoping for, but they do seem to be very dense. Green Crack bulked up a lot last week and I'm very impressed with the size and density of the buds. She's also frosty and sticky, with a smell that is potent but hard to describe other than it smells like weed. Stay tuned for harvest, coming in 5-7 days! Thanks growfessors for stopping by 👽🌳💚

Day 51, 4th of November 2020: The 3rd day since the lamp switched to be 12/12. I raised up the nutrition intake as it can be seen above only the BioBizz family 2ml/l and removed some LST because the plants remain in shape or just set a bit but nothing significant.... They look good and strech is on the way..... Nothing really to report there is crazy 2-3 weeks from now ;)

Going into the second week of Earyl Veg , Will post pictures around 7pm est, Thing ae going along swimmingly with temperatures around 75-81 , And humidity at around 41-58 percent, im sitting around 1.3 vpd . (Ideally want 0.8-1.1 Vpd. Having an issue with Holding temperatures during its light off state , Tried to close up the tent 5-10 mins before lights off , and turn off humidifier , to hopefully hold temperatures, Will also update this comment, on Temps when light turns back on. May need to add a heater outside the tent's vent to keep temperatures above 65 during Light off. Lights off appears to sit around 67 and 50-70% humid , Lights on Still ranging from 77-81 and 35-50% humid, Added a humidifier to help increase humidity, as well as turned off my Filter/Fan , and just have clip fan as outtake , and one clipped on the Tray blowing towards the ladies

2 weeks have passed since last update. A lot has happened, plant in front/back falling over on itself since it was LST'ed too far from main branch, have been trying to use the trellis net and tie some of them up. Runtz muffin on the right looks ready to harvest, the mandarin cookies look like they will both need another week or two. Trichomes milky on the runtz muffin, 10-20% amber and pistils all coiled towards the plant, beautiful orange color and the buds are caked with trichomes. Gearing up to be an amazing first grow in the books!!! Wish I had refrained on last dose of fert, wasnt expecting to harvest these quite this fast. Mandarin cookies definitely seeing some nutrient problems, assuming thats just because of how late we are into flower.

Day 9: installed this Pro Co2 bucket in my grow tent 2 days ago. Really looking forward to see what this addition brings and if Co2 can really improve a run. Only time will tell Day 12: Everything is going good.. Added Foxfarm Acid Lovers dry fertilizer, scratched it into the top inch of soil about a tbsp and a half and watered good. I checked ph the other day and somehow soil ph was all the way up to 7.0 hopefully this FFAL will drop that a little. Also got some trifold poster boards and stapled sheets of mylar to them to reflect more light. 12/2 Ending week 2 gotta say everything is going as good as I could hope this lady is in full affect first time ever growing this strain and I can tell its a good one. Great genetics can't wait to see end result

It is week three of flowering, and the net has been installed. Both ladies have also been defoliated. I am very happy with how things are going so far. Let's hope for buds as big as lemons! 🍋🍋🍋🍒🍒🍒

First week of life for this girl. She has been sprouted then planted directly into her 20 Litre airpot which is filled with a 5:1 mix of 'Westland Gro-Sure All Purpose Compost - 4 Month Feed' & perlite. I've had problems creeping in my grows. Yields slowly reducing despite extra lights being added. Turns out my soil was depleted. So for this grow I've started with fresh compost and perlite and lets see what happens with this one.

Week four is kicking off good!! Lst and defoliation are working great ready to start the stretch! One plant is showing signs of pre flower. So we will see 🤷‍♂️🏻 Upped the nutrients this week plants are drying out about every 36 hrs. I’m oh watering feeding and ph watering alternating right now and they seem to love it I’m going to start adding some fox farms soluables here shortly. I’ll update this week in a few peace! So an update it’s day 28 all are in pre flower and start of flower switched to the hps light still alternating feeding and watering about every two n half days. Started using open sesame on the last feeding will use it one more time and switch to beastie bloomz. Stay safe everyone!

Me hubiera gustado menos dias en 1L pero tenia ocupado este armario con otras plantas este el seguimiento https://growdiaries.com/diaries/188469-ogkush-grow-journal-by-gr3g4l?in_active_week_choose=1 esta semana se pasaron al armario de 74 x 74 x 170 ctms. con el Lumatek Pro 300W A mitad de semana después de 2 dias en un vaso y 22 en maceta de 1L. bajo 150W Fluorescente las transplanté a maceta téxtil e 7L. áprox. bajo el Lumatek Pro a 220W. Una vez transplantadas les hice un riego, 1100ml/planta con MicroVita 5gr. / 10L. para potenciar la vida de bacterias y microorganismos saludables para la planta. A final de semana me dió por hacerles una poda de hojas abanico. Algunas plantas miden más de 22 ctms y con la poda espero frenarlas en altura y que ganen en anchura.

3 bpp been in dark period for 3 days last week to try and push out bit more resin and thc , heard it can slightly increase both by stressing the plant of light in final stage before chop. So she is all Flushed, chopped and drying this week 👌😎🔥🔥🔥 Finally 2 more on Overdrive 2ml pl and next onto the flushing. Had to tie 1 plant to the tent because of the weight of colas. The plant literally looked like it was on drugs doing a full curve lol and about to snap! Will be flushing this week Other big bpp in 7 gallon is still going mad! Hench nuggies and smells amazing! 🙌 Waiting now for the leaves to turn yellow and then we're into flushing stage ....for a second time. Update 29/01/25 Drying tent has been at around 65-68 humidity and 20degrees I've taken most big leaves of now and left buds covered abit with small leaves for abit of protection and slow the drying down abit. Aiming for 7-10 days slow as possible for best results and retain the weight! So tempted to try one now but it Will ruin it Not long now 💨💨💨

Day 1-2 All plants topped, defoliated and lollipopped. Getting ready for the last stages of outdoor veg. Spring has cause the plants to be very leggy so topping, defoliating and lollipoping will help the plants through the final weeks of veg getting more bushy and pushing more energy to the tops. Clones taken. Plants sprayed with lost coast to help prevent bacteria or fungus infections aswell as mite preventions as all the mites are now gone. *knocks on wood*. Preventative spraying will continue. Day 3 Sunny 89* - 68% Humidity - slightly windy Nice sunny day and the plants seem to be recovering from yesterday’s abuse and everybody is praying. Watering two times a day now as the heat is on! Day 4 Only watering conducted. Give thanks. To be continued……..
