Day 61. Buds filling up.

Still only just watering 200mls every second day, she's got a got nice purple stem, looks like it picked up some of the black dominas colours.

Nice strain, smells like a dank citrus 🍊

Starting this week of with some (in my eyes) beautiful nighttime - shots! Also, i finally found out why Whitebalance is important on my Camera. Whoopsie! Plants got watered on Day 45 with 2,5L each, ramping up BioBloom to 3ml/L as well. If the plants dont tell me they need more, im probably only gonna ramp up topmax from here on out. With the watering, i did some more "aggressive" defoliation, focusing on the inside but also removed some larger fanleaves everywhere. PH in stays 6,5 and out Stays at 6,1 for plant B and 6,2 for Plant A. Sounds good to me! They also started to smell. They did so before, but mainly when i stuck my nose into the tent, and in the bygone weeks, it was, for my untrained nose, more of the typical "weed growing" smell we all know and love. But now - oh boy, now shes showing her olfactorial potential, and i swear to god i can make out banana (more like the peel not the fruit, but banana is banana), but my SO tells me im probably having a stroke. ill die on that hill though - i can smell banana. Theyre done stretching since a bit now, but in the timelapse (which ill add at the end of the week) you can see the flowers starting to swell up and see a difference daily. I said it a lot already, but i will say it again, they grow FAST, they grow beautifully and now they also get budmass going. I dont think they'll be ready to harvest in Week 8 (yet), just because i topped and couldve given more light, but if anyone tells me they harvested their BPP in 8 weeks, im inclined to believe them. My impatient a** is still in awe just how hard they are stepping on the gas. I measured their size for once, Plant A is 62 cm from soil to top, Plant B is 56 cm from soil to top. Plant B is also sitting on a weight as a slight elevation boost since this week. Bit late, but added the timelapse for week 7 for you to enjoy!

Last week before flowering 😊😄😝 The plants did an excellent job last week. The repotting to the large pots has done them well. 👍 I have watered the plants 3 times now. First two times 5 liters of water, containing 1 tablet of RQS Easy Grow Booster. The third time 1.5 tablet for 5 liters of water. Mind ! It takes a while before the tablets are dissolved! 😹 The color of the new leaves is beautifully green. The VPD is now also perfect most of the time with a value of 1.0 👌 For that I had to increase the relative humidity to almost 70%. 😭 I attached the larger plants to the plantsticks with a plastic binding strip. In this way I pull the plants to the same height as the smaller plants. Hopefully this results in a nice flat canopy. The lower branches may develop faster now, but I will remove them later. 👽 The plants now get 18 hours of light instead of 24 hours, so the shock is a little less when they go to 12/12. 🙏

Power Flower is now only an inch shorter than the Holy Punch 600W light is 9 inches away from plant (over the holy punch (Trying to give the two Power Flowers more room to grow))

After 10 days of flushing, time to harvest. End of week 8 of flower. Smells amazing. Im drying in tent, cant get the temp under 23 celsius. Thats why Im drying plants without a lot of trim. Buds are full of trichomes, 30h of darkness before harvest. Almost all buds are pretty big, so far sooo good 😅.

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Coop Poop, Feather Meal, and Soluble Kelp are ml/gallon of soil top dressed. Everything else listed in nutrients is ml/gallon of water fed to plants without checking the solution Ph. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 88°F with clear sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons per pot with well water. I added 75 ml Coop Poop, 100 ml feather meal and 50ml soluble kelp top dressed. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 74°F with sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons. These girls were still a little hungry Day 3 we had a high temperature of 79°F with partly cloudy skies. Today I fed 5 gallons liquid feed mixture with 40ml of Agrothrive Fruit and Flower 3-5-5 and 80ml of Biogreaux Molasses 1 - .5 - 5. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 85°F with sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons of well water per pot. Day 5 I didn't get photos but it was a normal day. Lots of sunshine highs about 80°F. I watered about 5 gallons Day 6 we had a high temperature of 79°F. Skies were sunny and it's really feeling like fall. I watered the #3 about 5 gallons. The number two got 5 gallons of feed. The feed was 100 ml of AgroThrive Fruit and Flower 3-5-5 and 40ml of Biogreaux Black Strap Molasses. I fed the #1 a 5 gallon nutrient solution that contained 120ml of AgroThrive General Purpose 3-3-2. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 73°. It was sunny, cool, and a dry 35% humidity. The girls are super happy. I watered about 5 gallons today. This week was a success. The girls have reached their final height. The #3 is at exactly 10'. Thats measured from the top of the pot to the top of the plant. I continue to treat weekly for powdery mildew. Finally the weather is cooperating. I let the canopy get a little out of hand but she's still producing. Only the number 2 smells like white cake. The others have a lemony smell to them.

Flush week

After a questionable start, she's up and going, so the grow off is official! I have plugged in some organic items into a Pro Mix HP base to get this lady out of the blocks organically and get that root system spread out through the nursery pot. I fed some wicking cord through the drainage holes to make a sip system, basically bottom watering to deepen the root system development. I layered the soil into the pot so the available nutrients increase as the roots descend. I added a little mycorrhizae in the soil where the seed was placed to get things cooking and used Recharge adjusted to 6.0 pH to buffer my amended starter mix. Now that she's showing a little more vigor, I'm adding a little Kelp, CalMag+, and MegaCrop for her to sip on... A little organo-salt treatment that will make sure she's got all she needs available to allowing her to really blow up!

Week 6 of flowering 10/23/24 Changed nutrients to fit week 6 Buds are getting even bigger and thicker. Defoliated a little. Noticed a PH of 4.8 in runoff, same as the late stage of flower in my previous grow. After lowering feed EC, CalMag on max strength, flushing with 0.8ec nutes for 3 days in a row, nothing changed and PH stayed the same. Read in a forum thread about constant low PH in the rootzone when growing in coco. Got great info about CEC, water, nutrients and little chemistry from a detailed explanation. (https://www.icmag.com/threads/recurring-problem-with-low-ph-in-coco.338385/page-2#post-10843765) Flushed plants with tap water + calmag, PH 6.5. Used 120L total for 4 plants in 2 days. 1st day: flushed after lights on, did not water until 2 hours before lights off and flushed again. Runoff PH went up a little, but not to the correct range. 2nd day: flushed after lights on and checked runoff EC + PH, of each plant. Fortunately, PH got corrected to 5.8, and I returned to automatic watering 4 times a day (with 10%-20% runoff). Thoughts: In the last grow, I thought I had a problem because of salts buildup in the media with constantly low PH in late flower. I didn't fully correct the problem till chop day. Same problem here in the same stage of flower without the salt buildup. After reading every forum I could find about the problem, I understood that my bloom nutes were the main problem because of their chemical composition. The coco ability to exchange ions lead to the low PH in the rootzone. It got worse quickly because I did not use any tap water with the feedings, so the PH could swing easily and drastically without resistance. After I looked online for the T.A. feeding chart, I saw they used TriPart Grow till week 7 of flower, the Nitrogen type they are using will up the PH. CocoForCannabis chart that I'm using, has not enough nitrogen to combat the bloom nutes PH down effect in flower. It gets even worse with RO water because there are no minerals that can resist PH down. Now I'm using 30% tap water with rest RO water, T.A. TriPart feeding chart with calmag and silica. Hopefully I have corrected the problem for the rest of the grow. It wasn't easy, because there were lots of variables that worsened the problem quickly. Now I'm checking runoff PH and EC daily. Update on next week :)

Week 6 is full blown flower. Technically early last week it was flowering but couldn’t change the journal mid week. I’m upping the feeding and hoping for some big bud production.

I do not delete my teas and let the plant pots dry out slightly before feeding.

Not much to say just growing like crazy through wind and rain! Keep getting dry they drink so much. One has copper defiency and has fraggled leaves but the rain keeps washing my nutrients away and I've ran out of Activera 🙈 so I'll have to find another fix
