This week has gone well. 6 plants in such a small space is playing havoc with the humidity but I feel I'm just about on it enough not to cause any rot. The Caramelicious is just plain awesome so far, bending the main cola 90 degrees hasn't effected her at all. She has a couple of issues but she is my favourite so far. I normally give a 90 day slot for each grow, but this one may finish a bit earlier with how rapid its developing. Notes. Extractor settings.

We are at 21 days from these girls breaking the surface and they are making progress. I noticed at the beginning of the week that they were a little overdosed on nitrogen so I added 2 gallons of tap water to the reservoir and adjusted the ph to 6. They are still looking a little heavy on N but their growth rate is going great so I think it should balance out by the end of next week. I dont plan on doing a water change until I flower them. I left the plants alone most of the week. Tied most of them down to spread them out and defoliated a few lower leaves on day 20. The branches on most of these plants are thick and solid already. They don't budge easily. Bananasicle is looking pretty funky with uneven branch and node growth but we are just going to push forward. Still pumping nutrients and beaming light 24 hours a day. I'm thinking day 28 we will switch them to flower and see if any of these ladies can bring someโ„๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’จ

It's really hard for a first time grower to grow without the input of others, particularly if you aren't a science type person. Grow diaries and the users who've commented have really helped me make decisions about how to handle the girls. What I've learnt is there's never a right or wrong way of doing something and a lot of your success is based on intuition! This my very first grow. I can't normally keep herbs alive and I had my fair share of disasters with this plant, from stem breakages (fixed with a tape and a ruler) and calculating nutes incorrectly. I LSTd and topped (accidentally initially) and left 2 alone. The ones left alone had the biggest yeild. I harvested at different stages, but within days. The trics were probably at 1% amber, 80% cloudy and the rest clear. A test smoke of a dry bud in a pipe which had been cured for a few days gave me a fun, giggly high that lasted a long time with rolling body effects that left me feeling reallllly good. I made butter out of the fresh wet trim of one plant (2oz of trim) and made 113g of knock out butter. Just a teaspoon had my flying for 24 hours. I was growing these 4 ladies, along with 4 non-auto skunk 1# which have been in veg mode for the whole time. They are beasts right now and I will start a diary for them to document the progress.

Flowers! Lots of flowers starting to form. This plant is a dream to grow. So easy. They're having a great time by the looks of it. Girl #3 totally recovered after a rough start. Upping the fertilizer a bit, cause the girls are getting more and more thirsty. The room is filling up with a nice odour. We're back baby!

Harvest day 66 since time switch to 12 / 12 h Hey guys :-) Finally it's time ๐Ÿ’š The lady is done the large leaves have been removed and hung upside down to dry in the dark drying room. You can now stay there for 13-15 days at a temperature of 18-20 degrees and 55-62% humidity. After 13-15 days it is neatly trimmed by hand and placed in jars with boveda packs 62. After 4 weeks Boveda 58% come in and are ready for testing ;-). After everything has been cut cleanly, the last update comes with the smoke report and the finished pictures. Let's get to the plant ๐Ÿ’š. Unfortunately, the rating system at Growdiaries is a bit strange because I have to give the stars before the Smoke Report and in the end it might have led to more stars in terms of taste. . The smell is great I'm curious about the taste ๐Ÿ’š Have fun and stay healthy ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ โ€˜Powered by GreenHouse Feedingโ€™ Copy the link for 10% off all Nutrients ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ http://shop.greenhousefeeding.com/ affiliate/madelngermany_passiongrower/ ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿผ Water ๐Ÿ’ง ๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ’ง Osmosis water mixed with Cal/Mag (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 290 ppm and Ph with Ph- to 5.8 - 6.4 MadeInGermany

Day 52-64 (Day 54) Iโ€™m going to thoroughly inspect each plant and remove bananas if found. So far itโ€™s only been the one on #7 but I donโ€™t want to take a chance. Iโ€™m also going to give a watering with some runoff. (Day 55) Canโ€™t find anymore bananas but that one. I will probably find a few bag seeds but who knows. Itโ€™s way too late for pollen to really have effect anyway. These 5 plants finish nice and early compared to my other tent flipped on the same day. I would never take this strain 65+ days like last time. I would do 56-60 days next time I flower this strain (Day 58) Holy shit this tent is fading like crazy now. They are starting to show some beautiful autumn colors. #1 #5 and #7 are definitely done. #3 and #6 could use a little more time so Iโ€™ve decided to take them down on the 24th. I havenโ€™t seen anymore bananas and the one that popped out on #7 has shriveled up and receded. (Day 63) Iโ€™m seeing what look like seed pods starting to form in some of the main colas on my picture perfect pheno. #7 is showing 3 or 4 little bananas too. All of the top buds are definitely done so Iโ€™m going to harvest as soon as the lights come on tomorrow. Iโ€™m going to give one last watering right now and then harvest. Iโ€™ve noticed that harvesting a watered plant will extend the dry time by a few days and thatโ€™s exactly what Iโ€™m looking for. A nice slow dry. Plants are being full plant hung + dry trimmed and tent is being kept at 60-65 degrees and 60-65% RH. Cutting everything down was a pain in the ass. I had to individually cut each square the scrog net so it wouldnโ€™t contract and squish all the buds. I chopped down my other tent as well so I have no other plants in flower right now.

Start of week 2. Everything seems to be ok. The bottom left and right seem to have taken the lead. I switched the two biggest plants into the center. And raised the pots off the ground to help with airflow and temps. Plants are doing good. Two centers are taking the lead. Using RO water. Currently watering when top two inches are dry.

22/08/18 - everythingโ€™s looking great Iโ€™m sure they will be finished stretching sometime this week and also should be getting an additional LED to add to the tent by the end of the week. Also started to lolly pop each plant took about a 1/4 of the leaves etc so far will see how it reacts to this to see if I can continue to 1/3. 24/08/18 - lookin good 48hr after I trimmed the bottom branches/big ass fan leaves in the shade looking miserable so i had to chop em. Still waiting on my extra led in the post.

*******Week 5 - January 6 to 12, 2020 She entered flower this week. First 2/3s were transition and she was finicky at this time.....still is at the end of the week.....or at minimum certainly not on an autopilot at this point. No issues of anything but for IPM, Friday she was sprayed with Plant Therapy by Lost Coast. Mixed at 2ml/L. Done at lights out but was a little slow and ended up spraying about 20 minutes after lights out. Things seemed fine and she had great growth over Saturday night. The first part of the week the growth was not as vertical. By the end of the week she had shot up. Finally feel comfortable removing some leaves now and there was a slight defoliation this week. Now should have a good form to her with four tops competing for the โ€œtop spotโ€......no FIM either........LST works๐Ÿ‘‹. Expect to see more vertical growth this week. She was 16โ€ tall and 24โ€ wide by weeks end. Tied her down twice this week. She has 2 main stems competing each other, of 4 or 5, but think I will let the two of them duke it out and I will keep them the same height as each other๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’ช This strain is supposed to have some fat buds on the AMS and given this girl will not do the same with LST, I will see how these 2 form compared to the other large branches. I still have a couple more seeds from this pack so learning a bit for the future as well.๐Ÿ‘Š First half of the week she stayed droopy on the lower 2/3โ€™s. Might have been pushing her a bit....a little wet causing droopy and getting pretty green so she is getting the nutes๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ณ. Dry out day on Thursday and water only on Friday. Backed off the light more and she has taken off finally over the weekend.๐Ÿ‘Š She has not liked the light at full power at 18โ€......lowered power and backed off to 40โ€ for a day and she was better. Lowered down again to 28โ€ with HLG at 50% and holding there for now. Still going to sleep about an hour and half before lights out but getting better. We are getting close to half way๐Ÿ‘ Little more detail: Mon - Jan 6/20 - Day 29 - 2L water ph 5.5......finished last week a little high. Bringing pH down a bit. - runoff water from last feed 900ppm, 6.1pH. After feed runoff 610ppm, 5.7pH Tues - Jan 7/20 - Day 30 - dry-out day - looking like a ball :) Wed - Jan 8/20 - Day 31 - since nothing yesterday she was fed at 6:30am today. 900ppm with 6.0pH - 1.5L - run-off: 700ppm, 6.0pH - pots were light late in evening and no time next morning.....watered again late today. - 2L in PM with 975ppm, 5.9pH. - run-off: 650ppm, 6.0pH. - small growth removed from lowest branches. They will be blocked anyway. - she is certainly getting greener. Thurs - Jan 9/20 - Day 32 - sick today.....I did nothing for her :( - dry-out day.....pots were still okay in evening......or good enough Fri - Jan 10/20 - Day 33 - she is standing up more today....main branches starting to take off. - water only today......1L with 6.01pH.....kept light.....giving IPM - Spray with Plant Therapy 12:30pm, 2ml/L (2Tbsp/gal) - Everything is fine but I have fought thrips before and have two cats....spray them๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ’€ Love pets like crazy but even when not allowed in the grow room I still find their hair here and there in my bud shots๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ‘น๐Ÿ˜‡ Sticky buds love that๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ˜ช Sat - Jan 11/20 - Day 34 -she is pretty happy today. 4 main stems competing. - pots were light....she is feeding well. - gave 2L feed but DF went in at 2ml/L by mistake..... 1,000ppm, 6.05pH. - Terpinator upped to 3ml/L from 2ml prior. Sun - Jan 12/20 - Day 35 - Huge growth last night....leaves filling out, standing up, and node spacing growing.๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ - Flower sites are tight together.....she will stack nicely๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ‘Œ - focus on some supplementals with flower going. - Added Piranha & Voodoo Juice from Advanced....their schedule is first two weeks of flower, 2ml/L - Full 2L feed. Kept the base low. 725ppm, 5.95pH. - Pulled out and stripped a couple more lower inner growth sites. - measured: 16โ€ tall x 24โ€ wide......after tying down....strong week of growth. Coming week is to focus on more the same.....minor changes to temp or humidity....will start cooling off evenings more and decrease humidity range to 55 - 58%. Only three to four more full weeks feeding left......she goes quick with autos๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Considering trying out a real high potassium adaptive to counter act some of the high nitrogen she looks like she experience, to help keep up bud density.......Terpinator should do the same thing though - increase the amount given closer to manufacture recommendations. *****next run keep closer eye on light intensity.....this girl liked to ease into the increased light.
