Desde 13/12 a 20/12 13/12: empezó el día con lluvia en la madrugada y mucho viento. Esperemos no haya sufrido la planta ya que estaba atada y no pude ir a cortarle los hilos. El pluviómetro marcó 130ml. El viento fue fuerte pero lo soportó como una campeona. El problema es que los caminos estan feos y no se puede entrar. Tendré que esperar hasta el miércoles o jueves para poder ir a verla. 14/12: temperatura de 29ºC. Humedad de 63%. Me dicen que sigue creciendo bien, aun no se mejoran los caminos rurales así que hoy no podré ir a verla. Mañana posiblemente si y subo fotito. 15/12: tuve que pedirle a un amigo que me lleve en moto porque en auto no se puede entrar, hay mucho barro y aún no se escurre el agua de los caminos. La nena no sufrió nada. Crecio mas de 15cm desde la ultima vez que la vi. Parece que con el viento se desataron los hilos así que volví a atarla. No hizo falta riego ya que aún dura la humedad de la lluvia del domingo. 16/12: hoy fui a verla y a regarla. Me llamo la atención la fuerza que hace para irse para arriba, tanta fuerza que desató varios hilos. Tuve que volver a atarla. Se marcó a tal punto de casi quebrarse el tallo en la punta, donde doblé la planta. Le puse aloe vera natural para que cicatrice, espero de buen resultado. Por otra parte regue con 20 litros y saque muchas arañas blancas, muchos huevos y varias chinches. No nos olvidemos que el lugar de cultivo está cerrado por monte autóctono y virgen, hay cualquier cantidad de insectos. Suelo ponerle musica a la planta cuando voy a verla, hoy escuchamos el CD “Lobo suelto, cordero atado” de Los Redondos. ¿Ustedes creen que las plantas disfrutan de la música como nosotros? 18/12 - mucho calor durante la siesta/tarde. Conserva bien la humedad. Hoy regué con manguera. No encontré ningún huevo de araña, pero si una araña pequeña. Ayer no pude venir a verla por falta de tiempo, y hoy note el crecimiento de los dos días. Va bastante bien. Esta semana descansa de fertilizantes. Esperaré a fertilizar fuerte pasado el cuarto menguante. 19/12: como de costumbre fui por la tarde antes de que cayera el sol, y me encontre con la sorpresa de que tenia mucha araña roja varios sectores de la planta, muchos huevos debajo de las hojas grandes. Tuve que volver a mi casa a buscarlo Jabón Potásico para hacerle aplicación foliar. Le puse 1 litro con dos tapas de jabón; esperemos haga resultado. Mañana tendré que dedicarle más atención a la nena y sacarle todo lo que pueda de forma manual. Hoy es luna llena y alumbra muchísimo, la nena lo siente, le gusta.

The the buds were small so it made trimming a nightmare! But it’s done and the end product is worth all the time. I have loads of trim and small popcorn buds that will be dry Ice sifted and pressed into a hash brick. Will update the diary when I have some bcp hash Weighed up the trim at 588 grams, used my trim bins with dry ice to sift the trim and pressed it into blocks using a rosin pre press, I’ll now jar this and put it to one side. My first time doing this, definitely worth the effort!

2/17: I spent a little time rearranging today. I bought some 32" x 14" plastic ventilated storage shelves and cut the legs down on two of them so I have some different-height platforms for the shorties in the garden. I should also be able to easily flush 6 plants in 5 gallon pots, or 9 plants in 3 gallon pots at a time now, that's a win!👈 2/18: I debated whether to feed or not, and settled on watering them with about 1/2 gallon each. including bembe, cal-mag, signal, humic acid, and a little beastie bloomz. The new dehumidifier is pulling about a gallon and a half per day from the air, so I should be able to feed them in a coupe of days. I've reached the ceiling again with my lights and all three are still stretching. I've either tied down or supercropped all the branches on the two taller ones at this point. 2/19: Rainy day outside, so I'm pulling in 99% humidity, plus the pots are still petty saturated, but the new dehumidifier is keeping up. RH is holding at about 45% today.👍 2/20: Day 31 of flower...they grew another couple of inches overnight! Damnit!😟 After emptying the closet (again) today and supercropping more branches (and some of the same branches again), a semi-solution occurred to me that allowed me to raise the lights another 3-4 inches! Now I'm truly maxxed out... Word to the wise..you get the idea from the 49-day estimate that FF#11, being Indica-dominant, will be short/squatty/fast, but I can say that this strain, if well fed and illuminated, consistently produces absolute monsters...slow to flower.. 300%+ stretch from whenever you start flowering them. I really needed everybody to finish in the same week so I could get my Spring autos going...😶 I'm still hoping that they will get their groove-on and finish by the EHD(3/11), but it's not looking possible at this point... They're likely to be the heaviest producers in the garden, so that's pretty good consolation I suppose. I took photos and videos of all the plants today since I had to empty the closet and it wasn't a feeding day. 2/21: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including beastie bloomz, tiger bloom, big bloom, signal, bembe, and cal-mag...no grow big this time. 2/22: MONSTERS..they're such a pain in the ass, but I do love them so! During veg, they were pretty dark green, but they've lightened up quite a bit. They are still the slowest to flower, but they're stacking up nodes really nicely.👍 2/23: I ordered some Terpinator because I'm not so sure about Signal's efficacy at this point....I'm usually dealing with odors more by now..😕 That's it for week 9-

This week with this girl has been awesome she has really started to take off now that her soil is rite! She grew over 5" in the last week and that's what I chose to take for my clones. 2 to be exact and hopefully will have better results with this go around. Took me 2 clones off this mom plant so now she has been topped twice. Hopefully with the lessons from personalsmoke will end up with a couple clones of puffinz. They look sad at the moment but I havnt seen what normaly happens to clones 24 hours later. I give momma about 330 ml of de-clorinated 6.8 ph water every 2 or 3 days when the hydrometer goes around 3. She is in living soil so for now will just sit how we are and just straight water to make her happy! Thanks everyone for the love All sent back 10 fold love

Just feed the girls some compost tea and overall they look healthy growing stronger by the day... she has a lot of bud sites and is getting thicker by the day

All plants were thinned out a little below. Since not much light was able to reach these shoots. Now we give them a week or two before we go into bloom.

We're in the second week of flowering, and the stretching period has begun. This cut in flowering phase is growing very quickly and can triple in height in about three weeks with the right nutrients. For now, my strategy continues as in the first week: I'll only give them water enriched with microorganisms and let them grow without any stress.

Lollipopped the monster crop clones in the tent; defoliated everything a bit. Everyone seems to be moving alone nicely. Everything is showing pistils except the two bagseeds in the middle of the tent. Smells great in the closet. Between the two tents I have a 2x7’ area with three Sunraise lights running. I’m hoping to have a better harvest than last time. Last grow I only used the 2x4 tent with three plants and two lights yielded about 2 ounces per plant. I nute burned the hell out of them last time and I’ve been feeding about 1/4 the amount I was last grow. These plants seem much healthier and are much larger than my last grow. I have also become more comfortable with defoliation than I was previously. This time I am focusing on larger, denser buds. The plant in the solo cup is a Pineapple Express clone. It has not rooted but the stalk has turned white and it hasn’t been needing much humidity anymore. It is almost rooted; I have been spraying it with colloidal silver to try and Hermie it. If I can get it to Hermie I can separate it before the pollen sacs burst and selectively breed branches on my other plants to make feminized seeds. **growdairies is messing up; I cannot change the temperatures on substrate, night air or day air. Average temp for all is about 75 degrees Fahrenheit.

Algae is an asshole. Thought things were going really well... and then found a bit of algae in the rockwool.... No biggie I figure. Wrong. Left it one night, and today (Sunday) open the jar to find algae in all the roots. Not cool. Well, I needed to swap the nutrients anyway, and was going to do a major bonsai pruning... so why not also wash everything, plant included, in mild hydrogen peroxide solution? Sure, THAT's fun. Made the decision to swap Hydroguard for H2O2 as well, since the water is room temp (21-22 C) and the H2O2 supposedly helps prevent algae.... and keeps away root rot even in higher solution temperatures. Oh, and H2O2 is also seemingly a buffer... making getting the pH right in that small jar strange - needed WAY more pH down than without the hydrogen peroxide. Fingers crossed that the major life disturbances will help manage the algae and not just put the nails in the coffin.
