New update for week 12, concluding week 8 of flowering: Hi(gh) Folks! Thanks everyone for your input on my second grow question. I’m going for HighTV’s answer, the SOG with 9x4 main buds. Very nice to get everyone’s input on this, appreciate it! So another week done! They got their last nutrients Tuesday and on Thursday the 5 early ladies from Hempire got their first round of plain acidulated water. I flushed them a bit on Friday and Saturday to. Now they can dry out for a couple of days. I will flush them for the upcoming week and let them dry out before harvest next weekend. Im counting on them to swell up even further during this week. As for the rest of the 4 plants from Hempire, 4 from Royal Queen Seeds and 3 from Hy-Seeds, I will treat them as if this is another week 8, and they will get another dose of Flowering nutrients and PK. Then next week I will start to flush them also. I will have 2 full weeks to flush and let them dry out until my planned harvest on Saturday 5 January. I’m not even sure that will be early enough for the 4 RQS’s since they look like they have even more bud-growing to do, before they can start swelling! I will keep an eye on that. The 5 tall ladies, 2 from Hempire and 3 from Hy-Seeds show the nice thick Kushy buds i’m craving for, can’t wait to see the becoming nice and heavy! On the photos you see the slight diverence between the pheno’s, the left 2 plants grew the popcorn-buds on a stem, and the right ones have nice thick popcornbuds against the stem’s. The other to remaining Hempire plants also show these, apart from the early ladies offcourse. The early birds show a little stretching buds and nice purple colours. So next week will see the early ladies harvested, I hope? Look out for my next update and don’t forget to like! Thanks and see you!

I’m baaaaack!!! Sorry I’ve been away for a while. I’ve been busy getting everything together for the next phase… Welcome to the Dude Garden 2.0! I now have 3 grow areas. Two 2x4 tents (one for clone/veg, another for mothers) and a large 10x12’ish flowering area (its actually larger than that, but I’ll be conservative). The tents are running 300w LED’s and a T5 for the cloning/sprouting station. The flowering area has a 1000w HPS!!! I’m totally psyched to see how the HPS does with flowering for me. From all the research I’ve done It seems to still be undisputed that HPS is the best for flowering (but not so good on the electric bill). I moved all plants from the tents to the new flowering area under HPS. That includes 3 Blackberry’s (FastBuds), NYC Diesel Auto (Barney’s Farm), DinaMed+ and Critical+ (DinaFem), Cream & Cheese CBD (Seedsman) and 3 Cherry Hemp (Elevator Supply Co). You’ll see the first 2 Blackberry’s are getting close to harvest, but looking a bit funky due to the issues they had early on as seedlings. The 3rd is looking much better and will probably yield more than the first 2 combined. I do love the purple and the aroma is insane. Note: The HPS gives much more of a yellow wash on the pics than I was expecting. I tried to color correct the pics the best I could and tried to get to the real colors, It should be pretty close.

Everything is starting to flower nicly. I Think they are a week behind because of the L.E.D. Light but starting to get sticky and stanky. PPM run off is a little high with slight nutrient burn to some fan leaves. So flushing them for a few days. always seems to happen week 5 of flower with foxfarm and me pushing them as far they can go befor they cant handle it

Week 4 day 2 since i start germination, and i think they are evolving quite ok. CS1 is for now the queen in all aspects, shes the stronger, the most beautiful formation with no problems what so ever , CS2 is following and CS 3 also but with mutant leaves all over her, i will however keep giving her love and dedication, mb in the end she compensate with some beautiful flowers 🤞 As for the Tropicannas, TP2 its an amazing girl, no mutations and growing as it should, TP1 is recovering fast from her accident 😅🤞 and she is on the way to become a strong and beautiful girl. They are adapting super well to the new ligth 😅 one less solution to find 👌 Day 27 veg And I’ve been kind off busy, sorry i miss 2 days of updates, but between this 5 girls, my veg room and harvesting my flower run, time only stretches so much since one still have a life beyond the love gardens 😅 but non or less here we are and they look fantastic 🤩😆 all showing strong genetics and i thing i will have different phenotypes on the Chocolate department lets see😁 so far the strongest CS still is number one and number three still mutating her self from day one 😆 but she will take all my love till the end ( we never know ) on the Tropicana department, both looking amazing, number one completely recovered from the led accident 😅 end growing in a way t hat i start to think that she will catch up with the rest pretty soon 🤞TP2 is now the tallest plant of them all With 16cm high 👏 Day 28 veg No updates , all going as it should 😅🤞 Little battle between Topicanna Poisen from @sweetseeds vs Chocolate Skunk from @00Seeds (just for fun) TP = Tropicana Poison CS = Chocolate Skunk All i grow is medecine for myself, nothing to sell, dont even ask !!!! Stay safe and do it with love for the love ❤️ 🙏

Day 43 purpling petioles is back. Root zone ph tests are perfect 5.9 6.0. She is fed at only 650 ppm on constant drip feed. Anything higher and was seeing some tip burn. May try low low low dose pk boost. I've read up on adding at 1/8 strength and feed middle 3 weeks can help. Think I'm going to give it a shot next reservoir change. Day 44 res change. Implemented Canna PK boost at 10% strength. Filled res with 2 gal. Will monitor plants signals. A couple bottom leaves yellowed and died. Not concerned as the leaves where well below canopy and low light conditions. Day 45 .75 gal consumed. All is well Day 46 she drank another 3/4 gal last night. Maintenance flush completed. Adjusted fan to above canopy and while doing so my hand inadvertently brushed against a bud and she smells of pure lemon candy at the moment. Stunning. Day 47 another 3/4 gal gone and the top of the coco had a few dry splotches. She's out drinking my feeder. I may have to add a second carrot to the pot. Day 48 she drank a gal last night. I think I finally got her flowering nutes dialed back in. Initial runoff ppm coming out same as going in. Overall appearance strong and healthy. Added 3 gal to res. Day 49 checked her at lights on and she was bone dry. Somehow got an air bubble in the drip line. Immediately drenched her. she looks fine. Fingers crossed. Added some pics/vids of some propagators that I'm playing around with. No MJ yet, but its spring and planting my herbs and veggies.

Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of veg. Stuff is growing good in the greenhouse this week. I was in there yesterday putting the longer branches under the rack or tying them down. I'll go back in there today and finish clipping under the racks of leaves that don't get enough light, prime powder mildew places and small sucker branches that take energy away from the growing tips. I added some of the cactus pictures I have growing in the smaller greenhouse. It's 6 foot by 10 feet. They all get good food even though some of their pots are starting to fall apart. I watered the cactuses yesterday and a paper wasp lands on my cheek, they normally leave me alone and just fly around me. But a large queen wasp has been coming to get pull their young from the paper nest so the paper wasps are on edge anyway. I sort of panicked and swatted it away and knocked off my hat too.😧 I bent down to get my hat and the little bugger stung my little finger of my left hand. I guess it's poison didn't go in very far because my finger is barely swollen today. Stupid wasps. I let them stay because they help so much in the garden. I often see them fully loaded with some greenish pulp they have in their front legs that they can hardly land on their nest which is often upside down. This is the last week of veg. It's been a cold spring this year and the plants haven't grown as much as on a hot spring year. Oh Well. Keep Grown Straight. Chuck.

This week all 3 Pheno continue to stretch, which likely will continue through end next week (week 4 flower). Fed girls Recharge prior to defoliation at the end of week. Day and night tent temperatures were constantly between 78F and 65F degrees. Relative humidity a consistent 55%. Using an online calculator found VPD range from day 1.48 (kPa) to 0.95 (kPa) at night. About as closed to optimum as one can get given existing equipment/tools and recent substantial rain in the SoCal region. Due for watering tomorrow, so prior to, I will top dress with worm castings, compost, and Langbeinite 0-0-22. I believe this should carry the 3 through to harvest. Breeder flower time listed is between 56 and 70 days. We are at day 20 flower as of today.

Note : jegliches Zubehör wird in der GermniationsWoche aufgelistet . Day 29: + PPFD 550 * 20h = DLI 39.6 + Flaschenwasser mit Canna-Boost 1.5Liter Die war komplett Trocken ... kaum zu glauben lol Day 30: Sie alles recht normal aus . Es entfaltet sich noch . Day 31: + Flaschenwasse 2L EC 0.26 PH 7.3 + + mit Dünger EC 0.7 PH 5.7 + Drain 0.25L mit EC 0.9 PH 6.8 Fazit : ich übe noch mit dem Dünger und dem "zuviel" an Urgesteinsmehl :)) Day 32: Das Wetter ist eine Katastrophe . Draussen ist es 21°C mit 90%rH . Hier drinnen sind es im Zelt 26°C und 67%. Im GrowRoom ,also praktisch meine 1 Zimmer Wohnung mit 2x2m Niesche hat so 25.5°C und 60%rH. Luftentfeuchter läuft , sonst geht hier gar nichts, aber der produziert Abwärme . Will ich nun kalte Luft von draussen wirds hier mit 77%rH geantwortet aber die Temperaturen gehen runter :)) Lass ich es bleiben und entfeuchte , ich habe eine undichte Hütte was die Luftfeuchtigkeit betrifft , dann steigt die Wärme wieder . ES IST EIN TEUFELSKREIS :)) Aber wie gut das ich weiss das auch die ganzen CSC's und auch die Profis ihre liebe mühe haben die Temp und Luftfeuchtigkeit zu regeln . Und nein , ich werde mir keine Klimanalage einauen die beides regeln kann. Ich wollte nicht ewig viel Geld für das Gras ausgeben :)) Also liebe Brüder und Schwester des gepflegten Ganja komsumes und Produzenten , wir sitzen alle im selben Boot . Und jeder versucht der beste Kaptain zu werden :)) P.S. ich weiss, ein neues Bott wäre gut :) Aber dadurch ändert sich nicht das Meer :)) Day 33 : Das Spiderfarmer Zelt 70x70x140x200cm ist fertig und Einsatzbereit . Meine kleinen Zwerge ziehen um . Im großen Zelt läßt sich die Luftfeuchtigkeit und Temperatur besser regeln. Klingt komisch , ist es auch :)) Aber Ihr müsst auch nicht in denkbar schlechtester Bausubstanz leben und gärtnern :)) Day 34 : + Flaschenwasse 2L EC 0.26 PH 7.3 + + mit Dünger (Terra Vega 3.8ml/l , Rhizotonic 2.0ml/l , Boost 2.0ml/l , CannaZym 2.5ml/l ) = EC 0.7 PH 6.5 + + Final PH 6.1 Nach einigen Problemen mit der Abluft und der Umluft und die Luftfeuchtigkeit , versuchen die Zwerge sich jetzt im neuem Zelt zu aklimatisieren . Ich drück die Daumen . Day 35: Die Düngung war genau richtig . Meine Luftfeuchtigkeit geht auch . Temperaturen sind etwas hoch . Aber Sie entfaltet sich . Videos gibts heute Nacht. P.S. Da ich mal wieder zu schusselig bin eine Zeitschaltuhr und das Sanlight DIM System richtig zu nutzen , haben wir ein paar Lichtaussetzer gehabt , somit sind nicht an allen Tagen 20h Licht . In der nächsten Woche kommen 18h * PPFD 750 + 1h sonnenaufgang und + sonnenuntergang wird zu DLI 46.29 was etwas über das Limit von 45.00 geht . Schauen wir was passieren wird :))

Day 40 of flower and I'm pretty impressed. Once again I wish I had trimmed the undergrowth more. I can see light through the canopy so it's far better than last run, but there's going to be a good amount of LARF down there. When I'm done working in the tent the trichromes are visible on my gloves like sand so I'm getting really hopeful it'll be a good washer. Enjoy the video this week and ignore my attempt at taking LIT style blueish Grey pictures haha

So grow diaries is acting up really bad. It won't let me finish putting in nutrition. Hopefully it get fixed soon. So when Pablo Escobar sprouted, she pushed herself out of the rockwool. She is rooting lower down. Plus I didn't have the light turned up enough. So she stretched a lot, and got top heavy. So if she makes it, this will be a interesting grow against a few odds. Things are going, I dunno about good, but there is a chance. Thank you Spider Farmer, and Divine Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

What an awesome finish to my first grow. I went full perpetual harvest and then I remember I have a job. I made mistakes, learned a ton, and got the cure right the first time. The indoor from a few weeks back is comparable to dank GSC/PPD from dispo
