8/1 Took another video but didn't upload either videos when I was in town. I'll have to upload later. I have a lot going on and I need to consult my diary more often. The Temps dramatically changed. I watered yesterday just a few that were light but then it poured all night. This morning things looked SUBSTANTIALLY better. I think as long as I can get some sunlight the next few days things will be alright. That streak of weather in the 100s really did a number on me and my plants. Everytime I go they seem to be looking better so I hope that they bounce back and I don't lose anything after all this work. Plants seem "strong" though. They appear very healthy. This just seems like a mistake I made that was substantially worsened by severe thunder storms we weren't supposed to get. If they don't come back before rain I may move the plants that haven't recovered yet inside the barn for the night. It really depends. I want them to dry out. I'm thinking of going and putting a fan in the cage on the smart pots. I just need to keep an eye on them. UPDATE: I was worriedly watching my plants from the cams and got a message from my father saying my plants were "REALLY DROOPY." I got there and noticed they were WAY worse then earlier and it was sunny and 70's. I got my dude on the phone and sent him several pictures. Luckily I had a second opinion also from my father. A 3cu ft bag of 707 is 22 gallons. These pots were light like that. They just have a seven foot plant in them lol. I'm so happy. I was planning on bringing them Inside tonight in case of ANY rain, luckily I was able to ascertain THE REAL problem, consult my diary and askother growers. Things are looking good. I'm so happy I'm not overwatered. 8/2 Thank the Lord! And my father for his constant vigilance and my commercial buddy for always being there for me. I went over this morning and everything is back up. Plants definitely got stressed though. I think I was OVER and UNDER watering during those days where it was 100 degrees. It'd 68 today. I say this because as soon as I watered the plants they started picking right back up. Luckily I had a dry bag of 707 to pick up and compare with my 20 gallon grow bags and had my father check the weight as well. He's a forester and told me the weight was about tge same. I gave the big blue cheese in the back closer to 2 gallons until I saw some water coming out the bottom. The reason I think I may have overwatered is that the water evaporated as i had watered during the day or at night but not the 10% that they needed. I didn't QUITEgive them all their 10% last time more like I split the difference and did a gallon amd half. Some did get two though. I noticed some light yellowing going up one of the plants that I've watered the most. These plants are transitioning fast to flower. I think I've got the watering schedule down better and that's "don't water them on a schedule". I'll have to individually take note of the plants. Also on that plant and a few others I see minor nute deficiencies so as soon as I can feed I'm going too. I'm going to show my buddy all my info and ask his advice before i take the next step though. I can't believe they made it through this. Talk about anxiety. Wow. UPDATE: Talked to my commercial buddy. He advised to pick off any of the dead leaves, (which I mostly already have there weren't many) and to wait until next water to feed. He broke it all down in a way i could understand. Then he broke the feeding down further for me so I now know where to start. He did say he thinks my only problem this year will be, "finding a place to store it" lol. I thought he was joking but he went out back and brought out five gallon buckets with screw top lids lol. This back and forth dialogue (with a professional) is seriously lowering my anxiety and giving me confidence that im doing the right thing. Hes never led my wrong and hes always been there. So has my dad. He said to take the old man out for coffee because he saved my ass! I opted for the bottle of whiskey instead. I'll be checking them later. I'm waiting to feed until next watering and I'm waiting to apply BT. I don't want to do anything to a plant that has been that stressed. I'm giving them a few days to chill. Then the twenties will get a quart of grow big, big bloom and calmag and I'll convert that measure to the same amount for the 30's, and 50's. I'm not sure EXACTLY how big that tote is but I think it's closet to 30 than to 40. So I've got a solid plan for the week. I think what I'll be looking to do next is get my supports up. The wind has been crazy but these plants (even when stressed) seemed super strong! Still no fungal stuff knock on wood. UPDATE: Had to take the car to the mechanic and snag my wheeler to make it home. I sefoliated quite a few bog yellow fan leaves and some smaller leaves down low. Plants went through some stress thats for sure. I HAD to leave my phone with the wife as she had a telehealth appointment so I couldn't take pictures. I wish I could've because things are looking great. I can't wait until things dry out a bit and I can feed! I'm STILL in awe of how my plants look RIGHT NOW and how the looked yesterday. Another buddy said If I didn't see it (and I didnt know you) I wouldn't have believed it was even the same garden! I'll check AGAIN later if my car is ready. I'm anxious to feed and get my supports up. Plants are STRONG though. 8/3 Plants looked great this morning. I did notice what looked like nute deficiencies on the plants I've watered most. After speaking with a few local growers I decided to water. I watered everything a gallon. The containers got more. The 10 got less. Then i mixed up a feeding solution of 1 tsp grow big 2 big bloom and .5 calmag and fed the 20s approx 1.5 pints. A little less for the 10 and a little more for the bigger pots. I'm going to go back over and if I see no negative effects from earlier I'll use the rest of the solution. I'm hoping this was the right decision. It hasn't been enough time but the bags were light. Not SUPER light but last time I waited it didn't work out well for me. Two local growers have told me theyve been watering daily and they have plants in raised beds and right in the ground. I want my watering to be in the morning anyway. Hopefully this works out. I'll update. UPDATE: Went back over and everything was standing up nice. They loved that water and the small dose of nures hasn't burned them so ill be able to use more next time. I used a Gatorade bottle thats 1.25 pints amd went from there. A total of two gallons was used on the garden. Things look amazing. Things are changing on the daily. I'm losing some leaves now. Well they aren't dropping off but I'm plucking them before they yet that far. I need to water in larger volumes I think. Plants are drying out too quick. Others are saying they are watering much more often as well. It really hasn't been raining and these plants are huge. I have lush green leaves but this transition and the added watering I think has leeched a lot of the nutrients from the soil. Since I have the fox farm that's what I'll be using. I still have a couple leaves that are destroyed by a fourkined plant bug. It's very identifiable so theres another I need to find. Also seeing chunks missing from leaves. I need to up my ipm game. I don't want to do more than one thing at a time though so I know what happened if anything goes wrong. Since i did the nutes today the spraying of BT or captain Jack's I'd going to have to wait. Despite losing these old fan leaves my plants are dense. Defoliating really helped with airflow. I also noticed some chlorosis on a few leaves. That's why I'm going to start doing the 10% minimum. I'm waiting until they are real dry then I'll give everyone (but big blue) their 10%. I got run off from big blue just from like a gallon amd a half today. I hope my 2 minute video uploaded. It says it dis but u bet it didn't. I'm trying again and I'm at 12%. Let's see if my patience lasts. Looks like it doesn't want to upload 8/4 Thunderstorms and heavy rain all night. It's supposed to rain steadily all day. Plants werent drooped or blown around looking or anything after this storm and I only have minimal supports up. I defoliated anything that needed it. Just a few yellow leaves on the bottom interior. More like nitrogen deficiency. I am watering to frequently though. Im noticing some chlorosis (minor) on old far leaves. Could just be that the soil is getting depleted but "if the brown surrounds your plant is drowned" and I noticed a few leaves like that. Just a couple bit i know what to look for. I hate to say it but i think ive almost got things dialed in for this grow. I will need to put up further supports. These are some STRONG plants. I shook them all off today. The seemed to love the nutes. Plants looked way better this morning than I was expecting. I need to up my watering volume to 10% everytime. I DID fine more pillar damage when defoliating and a four lined plant bug mark on the purple punch in the ten. 8/5 It's not raining right now but it Rained all day and night. Plants really seemed to likecthise nutes. I'll up it to a quart next feed. I defoliated what needed it. Found my FIRST totally yellow leaf of the season. Big old interior leaf i must've missed earlier. Smell has greatly increased. Seeing that these plants seem to have no ill effect from all this water I feel more confident about my ability to fully water them their 10%. Especially since they are massive plants. I have one daln near 8ft and it's damn near as wide. Real good airflow. I think this is gonna be my year. I certainly hope so. I need to get rid of that fourlined plant big but more importantly I need to deal with pillars proactively so next nice night I'm going to treat with bt. Super proud of myself so far. 8/6 Didn't rain much yesterday. In fact I stepped out my door and the sun was fully visible and bright while rain poured down around me. It wad a cool experience but the plants dodnt get much for water. I checked the weight this morning (heavy) and shook off the plants and did my normal morning inspection. I news to remove a pallet so I have more room. Plants are really trying to flower. Next week I'm gonna yet them with a stronger dose of nutes. Last year this was about the time I lost my crop. Knock on wood but this is the healthiest crop I've ever had. I MAY apply BT tonight. Haven't decided yet. I'll keep the diary updated. UPDATE: Went over to check the plants that were WET and HEAVY this MORNING because of the windstorm. If dried the bags out completely. Everything but the 10 was drooping right over like before. Good thing I've got some pretty good intuition. I took two videos. I gave everything their 10% 2 gallons each and for each container plant. Plants were back up by the time I was done adding supports. 8/7 Sunny this morning. Plants looked good. Had to defoliate some dead leaves. I can't believe those grow bags dried out so fast yesterday! Its just the wind was so strong! Plants were right sideways! They got some syrong roots thats for sure. One of them (my canary) seemed light this morning! But we are getting an inch and a half of rain starting tonight into tomorrow so im not watering ANYTHING. I'm not sure what I'm going to do IF anything. I added to my supports. I COULD put EVERYTHING in the barn where we put heavy equipment. I'll probably at least bring a couple inside in case something horrible happens. Things arecreally doing good. Flowering up nice. Found a cicada on one yesterday. First time I've ever seen one. I'll update with what I decide to do. UPDATE. My canary seems a little light and is losing lots more leaves im not sure if it's because of the transition to flower but I assume that has something to do with it. Plants still have MORE than enough leaves. Found a couple pillars and killed them. Took a video. I have one blueberry cheese that I hope doesn't have a fungal infection as it's losing more leaves. But it takes more water and is greener and fuller up top. I think I'm just worried because of last year. I've done what I can gor the storm so let's see what happens if I NOTICE it get too bad I can bring some indoors.

Definitely interesting temps stayed about 26 degrees C humidity around 60-65%. They’re still alive after a week and I transferred them to the buckets 4/15. Just watered them in the rockwool from 4/3-4/15 pretty much feed the myco + voodoo mix towards the end and plain ph’d water in the mean time.

Schönen Sonntag euch 💚 🌿 Wochenupdate Die Woche ist etwas Ruhe eingekehrt =) Alles läuft wieder stabil. Seitdem ich pH+ hinzugezogen habe, ist der Drift wieder voll im Rahmen, und die Damen entwickeln sich zum Glück allesamt weiter. Da es aktuell nicht so viel aus dem Run selbst zu berichten gibt, wollte ich einfach ein paar Dinge teilen, die ich in Zukunft zumindest mit meinem Aufbau anders machen werde =) Fangen wir mit dem 4×4-Cross an 🌿 Auf jeden Fall eine super spannende Geschichte. Es ist wirklich interessant zu beobachten, wie die verschiedenen Genetiken auf das gleiche Environment reagieren und sich zueinander entwickeln 😊 Und sind wir ehrlich, wer hat nicht gerne ein bisschen Auswahl =D Allerdings finde ich, es braucht sehr viel Zeit und Fingerspitzengefühl, einen EC-Bereich zu finden, in dem sich alle gleichzeitig gleich wohl fühlen. Und das, obwohl ich darauf geachtet habe, dass alle von ihrer Entwicklungszeit und dem bekannten EC-Bedarf nicht zu weit auseinanderliegen. Für Single-Reservoirs eher suboptimal, finde ich zumindest 😊 Hier werde ich in Zukunft eher zu 2×2-Cross tendieren und schauen, wie sich das verhält. Der hohe EC hat sich auch echt gut getragen, bis ich ins frühe Bulking geswitcht bin 🔥 Ab da hat mir dann mein weiches Wasser feinstens einen Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht =D Die Kette verlief etwa so, dass insbesondere Notorious mit dem EC deutlich zu kämpfen hatte. Daraufhin habe ich die Lösung – wie immer – berechnet entspannt angepasst. Als ich den Eindruck hatte, dass sie wieder deutlich besser dasteht, habe ich bemerkt, dass ich durch das Verdünnen der Lösung 💧 und meinem weichem Wasser in einen schleichenden pH-Drift gerutscht bin.. Zu der Zeit hat es leider etwas gedauert, pH+ zu beschaffen. Jop auch son Ding hätte man ja vorher wissen können :D :D Letztendlich standen sie Dadurch nach dem Entspannen der Lösung phasenweise in ziemlich niedrigem pH , was wiederum für verlangsamte Aufnahme bzw. teilweise vielleicht auch schon für Lockouts gesorgt hat. Beim nächsten Run wird der EC wieder defensiver gefahren und vor allem mein Wasser direkt von Beginn an gepuffert 💧😊 Sonst bin ich wirklich happy, wie es bis hier lief – es sieht schon wieder alles besser aus =D 🌸 Pflanzenstatus & Training Blueberry Cupcake ist nach wie vor absoluter Performer 🔥Ich glaube, hier hätte man sogar noch mehr pushen können =D Selbst unter den stressigen Bedingungen läuft sie wirklich erstaunlich stabil. Sie hat schön gefrostete Blüten und der Blaubeer-Geruch hat sich etwas gesetzt. Riecht mega lecker – freue mich schon auf den Test 😊 Purpz hat leider doch mehr reagiert, als ich es gehofft habe.. Ich glaube, das war hier am Ende einfach zu viel auf einmal. Sie hängt immer noch etwas nach, und ich habe allgemein den Eindruck sie ist momentan eher entspannt unterwegs 🌱 Ihre Buds gefallen mir trotzdem echt gut – bin gespannt, was hier im Finish noch kommt 😊 Riecht mittlerweile sehr fruchtig. Notorious hat ihre Pause beendet =D Sie legt langsam wieder los.. Allerdings war es hier sichtbar zu viel – erst der hohe EC, dann die pH-Thematik, all on me 🤷‍♂️😅 Ich bin froh, dass sie überhaupt noch weitermacht 💚 und nicht alles mit Nanners verpestet. Dass sie trotzdem langsam, aber sichtbar wieder zurückfindet, fasziniert mich ✨ Bis auf die geschädigten Blätter, die nach und nach abwelken, steht sie aktuell wieder solide da. Guzzlerz macht wie BBCC einen guten Eindruck 😄 Ich hatte eine Nachtphase mit temp-bedingtem VPD-Peak, da hat sie kurz die Blätter hängen lassen 🍃 Sonst gibt es nur Gutes zu berichten =) Schöne Frostbildung nach wie vor, Stacking ist im vollen Gange. Man erkennt es auf den Bildern leider nicht gut, aber ich finde, sie schimmert leicht bläulich 😊 ⚙️ System Jetzt wieder Top-up-Logik weiterfahren 🔄 VPD: 1,20 kPa CO₂: 700–800 ppm EC: 1.500–1.600 µS/cm PPFD: 1.000 µmol/m²/s Vielen Dank mal wieder fürs Lesen 😊🙏 Ich wünsche euch eine schöne Woche 💚 und fette Buds 🔥😄

Here she is ! DAWG DAZE at Day 78/ Week 11 from seed. Standing strong at 22 inches tall from top of soil. Using only 2x 100w closet case LED @spectrum_king_led kept at 10 inches from tops. She's grown in a 3 gallon smart pot @smartpots with 2 1/2lb kind soil and filled rest with cocoloco bush doctor soil and fed only tap water every 2 days as needed..kept the daily temps between (day) 80°-65° (night ) and humidity between 30%-45%. My preference. ..did her final minor lst training to get them left side colas in line. She fattening up real good now and her aroma is a strong sweet lemon pine . Great to enjoy everytime I walk in. Shes reaching her final weeks of flowering now. Maybe 2 more solid weeks . Looking forward to it. Will update next week on her organic growth. Enjoy.

Hey! This was the last week of flower, I harvested on day 62 of flower because I noticed some nanners appearing.. This strain was fighting for it's life from start and it did a good come back but in flower she couldn't advance at some point, must have gotten stressed for some reason.. all the other strains turned out great and this one pretty good as well just not as great as I'd expected.. Take care out there! One love Growers & tokers!

Done with drying, I cut her bud sites and placed them into a mason jar. I bought the boveda packs that are 62% RH. Now time to sit and wait 2-3 weeks and see what the finished product is like. Again everyone thank you for watching the grow up! 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I do have another diary with 5 auto berry’s, if anyone would like to continue watching the grow up. 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I have a lot more confidence in the autos just because this grow was my first time grow. Now I know the basics and everything else on what to do, so better and bigger buds on my next grow. ✊🏾😎

I've enjoyed a lot growing this plant, I had to deal at tje end of thr cycle with fungus gntas but she resisted without problems, each day the flowers stink more and more, amazing genetic, I would definitely like to keep on working with this genetic, it's a pleasure to smoke, I recomend you to grow her organically like I did snd you'll see!

The ladies are looking good this week. 2 of them on Wednesday had a few twisted leafs, so I have been trying to figure out how my ph got high. My normal routine is to prep the water the day before feeding to the correct ph. But finding after it sits over night, it rises from 6.5 to 7.1. This has now been corrected and only time will tell if these two ladies decide to untwist. My topping is looking really good, I've enclosed a photo of the beautiful knuckles on them. Trying to decide if I should top again, and when can I? I think the SCOG net will be coming out real soon, maybe this week or next. My one shorter girl has gotten bigger, but still considerably shorter than the rest. SCOG, should give her a chance to catch up. I'm really looking forward to this grow, and being my first, it's been really enjoyable. I only wish I picked up this hobby sooner. I find it fulfilling and relaxing.

She's looking amazing 😍 I gave her some more LST sessions and she's reacting very nicely. I did cut the LST strings right after this photoshoot, she needs now to focus on building its preflowers.

Well uhm this week has been a trip and a half the plant doubled in size and started bleeding black and purps ! it's my first experience growing a black strain so please forgive me if I gush more than warranted. anyways, no defoliation for her, no training, no nutes as of yet, but she does have the slightest bit of nutrient burn on the leaves, it's not spread or got worse so i'm happy. Still watered her with my micro and beneficials mix and sprayed her some with my red micro and kelp foliar spray, she seems to really need and like the micro. Also she's drinking one more watering a week, that's 3 waterings a week now ! What a great grower so far, i wouldn t be surprised if I'm chopping her down in 3 to 4 weeks ! thanks for dropping by and please do drop me a message or a suggestion if you have any...

Week 8 and week 3 of flower! The terpenes are making my mouth water and the ladies are fluffier than ever and stacking up nicely. Due to weather changes recently I was able to keep lower over all temperatures and the humidity has increased slightly but it’s right where I want it (50% RH). Purple Lemonade is fading nicely and her colours are becoming more and more vibrant - she has about 2 weeks left. Terps are insane! All the other strains are happy as can be and also showing slight fade on leaves here and there. Very impressed with my Divine Seeds pheno’s and definitely recommend giving their strains a try very strong and easy to grow. Ethos Zweets literally smelling like candy canes. Dutch Passion Colorado cookies definitely giving off hues of a bakery. Overall it was a smooth week and I can’t wait for the smooth smoke! Organics is the easiest way to grow with minimal effort and great results. Shoutout to Green House Feeding Bio Line 😎

Bottomed the plants on day 22 Over three weeks into flower and they’re still stretching but starting to slow down nice pistils forming I like the way she is stacking up
