Been doing a lots of defoliation in this week(Especially on ETHOS-Lilac Diesel) and all the plant are looking great. Still waiting for the bloom fertilizer and then we will start flowering stage as soon as we received the fertilizers.

Last week ahead. Next time will cut nitrogen earlier. These ice cream cakes did not like it at this level. Also had a little dripper clog and mokums tulip got a little burnt. At these high ec levels they are super sensitive to drybacks.

The plant is doing well overall this week! 💪 To handle a few fungus gnats that started showing up, I introduced nematodes into the soil and placed some yellow sticky traps, seems to be keeping things under control so far. She's growing quite tall now, definitely stretching up nicely, but not really filling out much in width. A true lemony skyscraper in the tent!😂💚

This plant plus one more started to wilt earlier on in the week, I figured it was probably time to transplant seeing as they had been in the solo cups for 2 weeks. After transplant plants seemed to be happy again. I introduced amino acids this week as well. They are getting the grease spray and drench program

Good evening my fellow growers! So, another Thursday night comes, meaning another week starts in this diary😎 As a balance from last week, I'd like to underline the beginning of LST and defoliation applied in the plant, so far with success. Had a little struggle with RH and temps, by getting the lights a little too close from the plants. Lesson learnt and problem solved! Day 29 4/6 - #1 - Love to push her around! Not sure who's enjoying it more, if me or the plant. Looks happy with all the twists, and I believe this will be the last week of veg. 10 day tops I'd say. She's a heavy drinker for the size, and loves some good misting before turning the lights on. Moving the light even upper, brought me lower temps and higher RH: Temps from 24c to 20c, and RH from 40% to 50%. Much better. Here's also a video from the grow, how everything looks today during lights off period. Enjoy! Day 30 5/6 - #1 today was just another day of growth. Actually apart from observing it during the day, haven't done really anything to it. Looks like has enough water still, looks like the branches are coming out nice and evenly, covering for now the surface of the pot. Today also started to feel her stink. Finally! This only indicates me she's getting ready to flower very, very soon. In the tent, today was the best 'weather' ever, I'm super happy with that 😅 Temps were between 18 off and 25 on, RH between 73% off and 40% on. Day 31 6/6 - #1 today's her first month, since dropped in the water. Wohoo! 😎 Had another look to her, make sure all branches are looking good, with proper exposure and re-tied it again here and there to adjust her and make her even on top. Removed a few more leaves on the way and it's looking great! Had a big time watering (with nutrients), a little over a liter and was also mist in all foliage before lights going on. Temps were very good again! Rh with 79% max and 52% min and temps from 25 to 17. Nice uh? 😎 Day 32 7/6 - #1 So, after the 1st month anniversary celebrations (ahah), today was training and defoliation day. Between today and tomorrow will do quite a defoliation as she's giving signs of starting flowering stage very soon. When it comes to the plant, I rearranged her first a bit to optimize the light exposure in all budsites, then leaves down. For the first time in this plant, I fed her plain tap water, with a 6.4 ph. Tried to simulate a rainy day as much as possible by misting her and the medium. I like to give her a flush in between stages, when changing to flowering nutrients. Temps as stable inside with 16 min and 26 max. RH from 52% to 76% Day 33 8/6 - #1 What a nice reaction she had from last night training and defoliation! She went upwards and looks so much better. You can tell she's stretching now and showing some little pistils. After having a look around, just took the rest of the leaves I'd planned to and she's finally ready to flower. Even her scent is getting stronger, a very nice tropical/mango/passion fruit kick when the tent is opened. What a delight!😎 Today I'll give her a light feed again, to get this lady back on track and will wait for another day to come. It's very nice to observe the strecthing phase, as you can see them growing almost by the hour eheh Temps today were 29 max, 21 min and RH from 71% to 39% (values are higher today as I let the humidifier empty for a couple hours) Day 34 9/6 - #1 She's full on stretching, in 48h grew more than 10cm, which I find incredible. I did a few more touches on the branches, now is the time to make them ready and give all the light they need in every bit of them. Today she didn't smell so much, like yesterday, but I'm sure she's focusing on growing delicious bud right now. Can't wait to have a taste of it 😄 No watering today, going to save that for the morning. I'll just give her a light mist to keep things fresh and humid in the grow. Tomorrow is the last day of this week, and I'm planning to start with flowering schedule and nutrients from tomorrow. Temps and RH recorded today: 26c - 18c 76% - 41% Day 35 10/6 - General: This lady continues growing at a very nice rhythm. She's opening all her arms to light and I foresee a good flowering stage. Techniques: After observing her under the lights, decided to remove some more leaves to maximise exposure. All light is needed right now. Feeding: Good watering, almost 1.5l with balanced ph water, and started introducing flowering nutrients, at a very small scale, and went up 0.5ml on the grow nutrients. let's see what happens, but as I write, lights went up again for 4 hours and they look great, showing no signs of stress on anything like it. Smell: Still getting there, it's more intense inside the tent under the lights, a light breeze comes from her, but nothing compared to the power of her younger sister #3 from the other grow diary I'm writing. Temps and RH recorded today: 28c - 18c 60% - 37% And that's it! This week is done, tomorrow we start a new one, which I'll consider the first of the flowering period. This was a very exciting week where the results of the LST started to show a little more and better, did a heavy defoliation during the week, and saw her growing a lot. I'm impressed with that and curious to see the next coming days and weeks until she stops growing to produce more of the fat buds we love. That's all, see you tomorrow!

Great to see you and I missed you, I had some time so I created a video to thank our lovely foster company, who were so kind to let us try their light in return for a review. Now, most of you don't know I'm also into making music, mostly Techno but I also love HipHop and Gangster rap, mainly 90's Westcoast, although I'm fond of East Coast and a little dirty South, so this was an excellent time to showcase one of my tracks. So please check my Autumn-themed, not commissioned, or approved by Mars Hydro, visualization video in thanks for @MarsHydroLED. The grow has been going great! If you don't count the about a thousand fungus gnats I have been fighting. I'm manually manifolding and training the girls, into the desired shape, which is a bit hands-on but I see it as a collaboration more than a 50 shades approach to training. You can't just bust out a rope and domination on girls like that. We ease it in there, going to the limit every time, making them stretch and curl underneath the touch of our tender but firm hands. And when they are used to a little groping and fixation, we might bring out a few ropes here and there to spice it up a little. Anywaaaays.... I'm getting carried away here, back to the grow. I had bought some coco-peat, after leaving none for the top layer as I suggested to all of you in the previous weeks of my grow (if you missed it, click one week back for a full recipe (the yellow image) for everyone in Europe) left me with enormous amounts of fungus gnats. Its seems to alleviate the problem already. As it did with my previous grow the Gelato 33 Golden Canopy from Heaven. In the meantime I notice my temperatures going down so Im trying to fix that too. All in all it had been a good week and this Orange Hill Special is promising to become something special! Thanks for visiting again, see you soon!

7/20 Went over this morning to plants soaking wet and heavy rain. Went back around 4pm and plants actually look really good. The rain has stopped for a bit and the girls looked great. Apart from some septoria leaves I needed to defoliate on the first plant I treated. I also noticed a few others on other plants so it's spreading albeit slowly. I treated the three in the middle with their second dose of Plant Doctor at 3tsp/1gal. One gallon administered to each plant via root drench. I think I may treat the other plant showing signs with a diy Dr. Zymes using citric acid as the active ingredient. That way I Gould start treatment right away without having to rely fully on plant doctor. Plus it would kill any pests. Ive seen damage but the birds do a number on them. I dont want to spray my plants with a bunch of chemicals if I don't have too. I shouldve replaced the pallets and cleaned the cage better. I think I did a good job sanitizing as I have no wpm. Just this septoria I probably got when the lady mowing the lawn cut all tjis fucking grass and blew it in my pen, throwing bird seed and I'm sure tons of disease into my grow bags. I literally had to harvest a bunch if fucking sunflowers. It looked like my plants had been mulched. Just with small disease carrying shrubs. At some point some of this stuff has to be on purpose. You CAN'T be that stupid. A couple kushes in the back look hungry. I think I may need to up my feed. I've written to much. I'll keep this updated. Thanks if you made it this far. 7/21 I guess it rained last night. Oh well. It was blue skies for hours before dark. It must've rained late/early morning. I'm sure the app of plant doctor will be fine. Like I said I'm considering using citric acid as a foliar spray to help with the septoria and clean up any pests. I don't have enough pests to warrant spraying. I just don't want to put all my eggs in the plant doctor basket. Today is overcast and windy. The wind has really assisted in spreading this virus. I remove anything I see infected immediately and since these plants are reveges they have plenty of leaves. Plants are really stretching. I know I talk about the septoria a lot but realistically if someone looked through my garden they'd have a hard time spotting it. I don't want to exaggerate the problem but I don't like dealing with ANY fungus or molds. 7/22 It was 55° this morning when I went over. I defoliated some septoria leaves and a few that were fading or damaged. I saw almost a whole leaf eaten so it's probably a good idea to move forward with citric acid. I can add that to the plants I've already treated with plant doctor. This is the first year it's been so noticeable. It's the reveg 10th planet that started this off. Oh well. I've dealt with MUCH worse. Plants LOOK good (other than septoria leaves (on bottom of plant). Today is water day for me but it's been raining and it's a lot cooler today. Bags still had weight to them. I want them to have a proper wet dry cycle. Temps top out at 75° so I'll monitor during the day and if something NEEDS WATER I'll give it to it. I'm suprised I have ZERO WPM. The septoria is much more identifiable but pm is usual present in these conditions bur I don't have a spot of it. I may do some defoliation today. I also need to add supports for flowering but one thing at a time. EDIT: Went over around noon. 70°. Bags seem to be holding weight (it was easier to tell as ONE plant was substantially lighter than the rest) so I decided to hold off on watering. At least until tonight. There are three plants (at least that are going to NEED water). They look phenomenal now though and we've had lots of rain. Plan is to go over later and get the light ones and mix the water for the others so I can administer it in the morning quickly. I have an early doctor's appointment but I don't to overwater or water unnecessarily just because. But when you grow alone sometimes you need to do things when your able. I have people there that would help if I asked. And I have before but its late . I'm very grateful. I defoliated quite a few septoria leaves. They were all from the bottom of the plant. A couole wete bottom interior. I know there are worse things to contend with but still a pain. EDIT #2 WENT BACK AT FOUR AND PLANTS LOOKED FANTASTIC AND STILL HELD WEIGHT. THE REVEG MK ULTRA IN EARLY FLOWER "MAY" HAVE STARTED TO DROOP AND "SEEMED" LIGHT. THE LARGE SPECIAL KUSH FUETHEST IN FLOWER BY THE DOOR WAS ALSO EXRRENELY LIGHT. I HAVE AN EARLY DOCTORS APPOINTMENT BUT DONT WANT TO OVER WATER MY PLANTS JUST BECAUSE IM IN A HURRY. ITS COOLER THIS WEEK. 70 TODAY AND HIGH OF 80 TOMORROW BUT DAD SAID THATS NOT UNTIL THE AFTERNOON. I MIXED UP ENOUGH WATER TO WATER EVERYTHING IN THE MORNING IF IT NEEDS IT. I HAVE AN IMPORTANT DOCTORS APPOINTMENT EARLY THAT WILL TAKE ME AWAY AND IM FEELING A LITTLE ILL SO I WANTED TO GET DONE WHAT I COULD TODAY. WATERED THE TWO THAT NEEDED IT WITH TWO GALLONS A PIECE (30GAL REVEG MK ULTRA AND THE BIG SPECIAL KUSH IN FRONT I DIDNT TOP THATS FLOWERING THE FASTEST. EVERYTHING ELSE CAN WAIT. 7/24 Surprisingly the plants still held weight this morning! The looked pretty good too! However its going to be highs in the 80's for the next 7 days. Since the plants still had some heft to them I watered everything just a gallon. I gave the 10s a half gallon and skipped the 50gal container plant. I think this is a good happy medium. I'm still seeing random septoria leaves but still no WPM. I defoliate daily sometimes a couple times. I need to get a minute to myself and add a foliar spray. I'll start with a dih Dr. Zymes while I'm looking into other products like bicilus (i have bt but its a different bicilus) or trichodermia. I need to feed sometime this week too. 7/25 Plants looked great this morning. I watered the 10th planet on the end that hadn't been watered in forever. I think I had been overwatering during those 100° days. I didn't water today as everything looks great and they don't seem to need it. I'll check later today. I did water the pink kush beside the 50 as it was much lighter (1/2 gal) to get it on par with the others. I'm starting to see pest damage as well so I think an app of Dr. Zymes would be a good idea. Both for pests and septoria. Plants are REALLY stretching. One special Kush is far ahead of the others. EDIT:WENT OVER AT NOON AND 4PM. PLANTS LOOKED GREAT APART FROM MIRE SEPTORIA ON THE 10TH PLANET. I NEED TO WATERING DIFFERENT IN THESE TEMPS. IT WAS BREEZY AND 80° BUT THE BAGS DIDNT FEEL TOTALLY LIGHT AND THE PLANTS LOOKED AWESOME! THE HUGE EARLY FLOWERING SPECIAL KUSH IS PRETTY DAMN LUGHT BUT ITS PRAYING AMD LOOKING GREAT. I DECIDED TO WATER AND FEED IN THE MORNING AND HOPFULLY APPLY A DR. ZYMES PRODUCT ON THE ENTIRE GARDEN IN THE EVENING. PLANTS LOOK HUNGRY AND I HAVE RANDOM PESTS. ITS MOSTLY FOR THE FUNGACIDE ASPECT. PLANT SOCTOR SEEMS TO BE WORKING GREAT ON TWO OUT OF THE THREE I USED IT ON. THE THIRD IS A REVEG AND HAS TONS OF FOLIAGE I NEED TO ADDRESS AND CLEAN OUT. IT SEEMS LIKE IT WILL SPIT OFF SOME SEPTORIA LEAVES A DAY OR TWO BEFORE ANOTHER APP IS DUE. I'M LOOKING INTO MY OPTIONS. IF ANY OF YOU HAVE A SURE DIRE WAY TO DEAL WITH LEAF SEPTORIA IN EARLY FLOWER HIT ME UP! IM NOT TOO WORRIED THOUGH. I CAN SUPPRESS IT ENOUGH IF I HAVE TO EVEN IF I GOTTA SPRAY THE LEAVES WITH THAT 9.0PH ALKALINE WATER. 7/26 Supposed to be REALLY hot with thunderstorms. I watered the two thirstiest with a gallon and a half. Everything else got a gallon (but the 10th planet on the end that was still heavy and the 50). I fed everything too. I SHOULD'VE done the DIY Dr. Zymes spray but I wanted to keep feeding and adding an unknown foliar spray seperate in case of any reactions. A day before plant doctor is due to be applied again the 10th planet in the 20 starts showing signs of septoria again. I've defoliated quite a few septoria leaves. I'm not giving up. I assume I'll do something tonight and I MAY just look to see what I can find on Amazon. Luckily my plants still look beautiful. I hope it continues and I can stay on top of it.

We're in the ninth week of flowering, and everything's going great. They'll probably be ready to harvest next weekend. Cheers!

Early week 6 update (i'll add more pictures and comments as needed): Unfortunately I hit some challenges! Light got way too close and stunted growth for a day. I noticed it on tips closest to the light only. Raised lamp to 22 inches. Indica bagseed (plant in the center front) got too stacked: stuff like leaves on top of each other with lots of moisture, no light/airflow penetration, etc. I did some basic LST, leaf tucking, net tucking, to open her up and go sideways more a bit at first. It helped a bit. Unfortunately aug 27, had to get more aggressive on this beast and remove 3 shade leaves on the right side. not happy about defoliating, but had to do it. Will see how she takes it and then look at left side on a later day. Growing the first time is educational and actually therapeutic in today's world for me. I've already learned so many lessons for the net time: don't need such a yuge pot, lamp brightness/distance, air circulation!!! Thank you to everyone that responds with positive encouragement/messaging, it really helps. Adding two more fans to help air circulation aug 28. hopefully it reduces the need to desecrate the plants! Meanwhile the plants in back (purple canyon) want to stretch their faces off, esp. the one in back left, so it is a balance. I only have so much vertical height :) aug 29, flipped to 12/12. plants are happy and i want to control the space for first grow. let's see how it goes. updated the humidity for the week to ~ 60. Ida etc has made it miserable, it should get better soon.

Day 99 - Cleaned all of the underside below the second net. Watered with 4 litres of water with nutrients listed above. Day 104 - Watered with 6 litres of water with nutrients listed above. Day 105 - All flower sites are shooting out lots of Pistils, plant still shows signs of stretch and I think she still has a bit more to go before she settles into her finishing height.

She's growing nicely. She's staying indoors this summer. This is suppose to be a good medical strain for headaches/migraines, I'm hopeful for my migraines will diminish with this strain.
