Week 6 of flowering Critical by RQS Hallo again brother and sister Growmies and homies . I will be making individual diaries per strain. They're in the same tent but not same strain lol . In the beginning I didn't know what i was doing 🤣🤣 and had both diaries almost the same but from now on I will treat them as different plants/diaries 💪🏻 so this diary will be similar to the other diary because there's nothing to talk about yet lol Fresh new week ahead . I am excited let's do this 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Come visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD And you will get a nice discount. Day 35 Critical Hallo fellow Growmies it is going fine with the Critical's. There are very nice orange colors and a very skunky smell! I gave these ones the same nutrients package as the Cookies . Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Running these nice looking plants in the best combo for me.

Day 36 Flowering Critical 👌🏻 Looking as good as they should be looking! Gave the plants 1.25L 🌊 pH 6.6 and that's it I let them do their thing.Also trying out my new microscope it's definitely a learning curve to focus in with not steady hand lol . Sorry for the first blurry pics 🙈 Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Come visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD And you will get a nice discount. Day 37 Flowering Critical Nothing to say today 👍🏻👍🏻. Watering will be done tomorrow morning made video today hope you like it Day 38 Flowering critical This morning I watered the plants with advanced Nutrients with pH 6.5 ppm was around 11:00am . They're looking good. But i have a lot of small little buds that will probably disintegrate by the time they're cured . Idk should i just cut them down so everything Goes to main bud's? Or should i wait till the big cola's are done, cut those down and let the small buds grow further? what do y'all think? Day 39 Critical Not really a lot to say, cut some leaves off here and there to get more light on the small grow. I am very impressed what my marshydro TS-1000 is doing in a 100x100 tent . Hopefully in the future i will upgrade to a size LED The tent needs 👍🏻 . But until now it's going great . Day 40 of Flowering Critical Been bizzy trying to get Critical under the microscope is quite a task . The best way for me is to cut 😱😱😱 something off and lay it down. it works but still need to fine tune it a little better but amazing what you can see up close 👀 both the leafs and buds are clear and some Milky going on also some weeks to go Day 41 end of week 6 of Flowering Week 6 is over Growmies what a wonderful week!!! Getting the microscope under control and starting to see the milkyway . The Critical is a bit longer away then the cookies still all clear trichomes some cloudy i will wait with flushing 🤘🏻 I appreciate all the comments, likes, views and tips you guys are an awesome community 👍🏻👍🏻 . Have great time growing and see you in the other week guys and girls Growmies and homies Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻

3rd flower week complete. I cant help but think I've ruined one of the 2 girls. Shes taking a really long time to recover and bud growth is slow and steady. I've defoliated for about an hour and a half tonight and now really need to get some sleep! I'll pop back tomorrow with lots more photos and a more in depth update on what has changed this week. Update........ so ive been caring for the burnt up plant throughout the week. Shes not gotten any worse but just seems a little stressed now. I decided to remove the worst of the burnt and dried up leaves last night. I know it will also cause stress but I didn't want the rotting leaves to cause any bacteria growth around the healthy plants. They've been on everyday waterings at around 1.6 EC. I've included some Hygrowzyme in the last few feeds in the hope some beneficial enzymes may help the root zone take on nutrients. Despite one of the pair being unwell the other is healthy and vigorous. Shes not getting the attention she rightly deserves so I've included lots of photos to this weeks diary. I wouldn't want anyone to be put off from growing this strain as it has so much potential. I'm hoping that the healthy plant produces the goods and leaves me wanting more.

5/16/2024 5/21 Wish there was more to report on these

She got slowed down a lot because she was grown during winter in temperatures between 16 and 20 celcius

Harvest time has come for my first lady which was a little faster, and had a completely other aspect than ther other 2. A little purple color and shorter. Also got some issues during veg phase with her. Anyway got 428g nice good smelling wet buds from her an they are drying now. Will post pictures from harvest next week. All of them are cherry cola. The remaining 2 ladies look very promising and will be harvested and of this week. Today 70 days from seed.

Oh mama! We're getting close to chop day! Look at these top buds though, literally a morphed golf ball on top. Can't wait to taste that golf ball. 😁 The plant has been going great throughout the entire cycle, hopefully things finish as they've been going. No signs of deficiencies a little excess maybe so I've been laying off on the nutes a bit.. leaves are healthy green this will be the last week of nutes. Only water from now on.

It's been hot and humid all week, so I had to open tent and run big fan to keep temp from going passed 83. Also used only water a few times to try to get some nitrogen out of system it is a bit to green. Hopefully stretching is complete up to 34 inches now from just 12 inches right before flip so this is nearly triple in size. Continued trimming fan leaves on lower 3/4 left as many as I could that were not blocking light which is always so few. Altogether going well.

.

This was the second grow cycle of the Lemon Skunk genetics. I'm happier with the way the second run turned out compared to the first. My yield was higher and one of the phenotypes turned out some stellar top nugs. This grow took way longer than it should have and I'm to blame for some of it. I think I should have went straight to 5 gallon pots instead of hopping into the 3 gallon pots. This cost me at least 2 weeks of extra veg time, maybe more. This harvest took 21+ days to dry. That's about a week longer than last time. I've had to prepare my report early to enter the Diary of the Month. I did a smoke sesh yesterday morning on a nug that's only been curing for 3 days. I'd much rather wait a month to fire some up and let it cure properly. I didn't get many followers or comments on this grow until it was approaching the end. I got the feeling that most people don't like this strain. I'm not really fond on growing it again for various reasons. Mostly because of the amount of labor involved with the trimming portion of the harvest. Maybe I just got some bad phenotypes. I wasn't really impressed with the way the terpenes touch my palate even though it smells really loud either.

Lampe 100% Sooo… die Mädels sehen richtig gut aus. 🌱🔥 Die Blüte hat sich prächtig entwickelt, schön kompakt und richtig harzig. In der letzten Woche sind sie gefühlt explodiert. Einige Colas ziehen sich jetzt schon ca. 30 cm den Stängel entlang. 💪 Ich bereite jetzt alles auf die Ernte vor, Ende der Woche ist es soweit. Eventuell nehme ich vorher nur die Headbuds runter. ✂️ Die mittlere lasse ich allerdings noch weiterlaufen, sie hängt hinterher und bekommt deshalb ein anderes Gießschema, während die anderen schon in den Flush gehen. 🌿 Ende der woche wurde teil geerntet Mo: Gießen: #1:#3 4L-6L je Dünger für Links und Rechts: Canna Coco A&B = 1 ml/L CalMag = 0,6 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Boost = abgesetzt. pH: 5.8 EC: 0.8 Gießen: #2 4L-6L je Dünger für Mitte: Canna Coco A&B = 2 ml/L CalMag = 0,8 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Sugar Royal = 0 ml/L Green Sensation = 1 ml/L pH: 5.8 EC: 2,1 Di: nichts Mi: Gießen: #1:#3 4L-6L je Dünger für Links und Rechts: Canna Coco A&B = 1 ml/L CalMag = 0,6 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Boost = abgesetzt. pH: 5.8 EC: 0.8 Gießen: #2 4L-6L je Dünger für Mitte: Canna Coco A&B = 2 ml/L CalMag = 0,8 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Sugar Royal = 0,8 ml/L Green Sensation = 0,8 ml/L pH: 5.8 EC:1,9 Do: nichts Fr: Gießen: #1:#3 4L-6L je Dünger für Links und Rechts: Canna Coco A&B = 0,8 ml/L CalMag = 0,6 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Boost = abgesetzt. pH: 5.8 EC: 0.8 Gießen: #2 4L-6L je Dünger für Mitte: Canna Coco A&B = 2 ml/L CalMag = 0,8 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Sugar Royal = 1 ml/L Green Sensation = 1 ml/L pH: 5.8 EC:2.1 Sa : nichts So: Gießen: #2 4L-6L je -nur wasser mit pH5.8 -Teil geerntet Gießen: #2 4L-6L je Dünger für Mitte: Canna Coco A&B = 2 ml/L CalMag = 0,8 ml/L Cannazym = 0,5 ml/L Sugar Royal = 0 ml/L Green Sensation = 1 ml/L pH: 5.8 EC: 1,9

Hello m8 welcome to this journey with me in this diary will have very interesting strains hope u find something useful O.G. Kush Titanium - [ ] 1st week Veg: germinated in substrate lighting very close so it jets medium high humidity after the 3rd day they started sprouting - [ ] 2nd week Veg: this week my ventilator broke down and as the temperature stayed very warm nothing developed much - [ ] 3rd week Veg:fortunately this week i had fixed the ventilation and the temperature has go down a bit allowing the little plants to develop and reinforce - [ ] 4th week:very good developments in this week I already started feeding a bit two times but i didn’t have to…once was enough - [ ] 5th week Veg:this week they were very strong green i only had to water them good and keep the ventilators going no stop .They have good hight already ,but as i have to strains together. I want to transplant them when the hight of the other one have stretched… I’m thinking to transplant next week if not the next one - [ ] 6th week Veg - [ ] 7th week Veg - [ ] 1st week Fl - [ ] 2nd week Fl - [ ] 3rd week Fl - [ ] 4th week Fl - [ ] 5th week Fl - [ ] 6th week Fl - [ ] 7th week Fl if this was useful please like and follow

Both plants have now again launched a new growth of bracts. This is round Number 4 for these two. I'll wait until these new flowers get time to swell up and ripen. Checked the trichomes, many cloudy but still a few glassy. Now and then, you find an amber one, but those are on old sugar leaves, and I don't consider these for my havest decision.

🌱: Opend up the canopy with garden wire on day 65. Patial harvest by accident on day 69, 73g 💧 : 12l SIP 💡 : Dli: 45 mol/m²/d 🤔: "There is rarely any harm where there is no benefit," my grandmother would have said. This gives me the opportunity to test the taste and effect of an early harvest. Now I have a triangular plant!

April 12, 2024 Day 57 This week we focus on Defoliation. The SCroG net has done it's job so far and may end up being removed next week. I'm not sure, but if I don't, then I won't be able to pull the basins out for cleaning. That will lead to buildup and clog up the wicks. I'm supposed to clean them today but I can't get them out until the net is removed. They should be fine for an extra week. I won't be doing one last defoliation, it will be done throughout this week every other day. These plants have a wonderful bud to leaf ratio, so I may only need two small trimming sessions. That should be it, then I'm leaving it alone for the rest of the grow. I may remove one here and there, but this canopy is open all the way to the bottom bud sites. So I really shouldn't have to trim much at all. Tropicana Cookies and Tropicana C are both identical. They even have the same branch reaching above the canopy. I had to tie down the one on Tropicana C. I will probably have to tie the other one down tomorrow. They won't go under the net, so they had to be tied to it. They are still about an inch higher than the rest of the canopy, but it's better than 4" above the canopy. They both needed to be refilled today. So they each got a full gallon with Recharge. I'll be changing the feeding regimen for their next watering. I'm switching out Big Bud for Overdrive and removing Sensizym. Tasty Terpenes and B-52 will stay for the rest of the grow until flush. I'll be cutting the nutrients in half for the last watering before flush as well. It should only need a few days to completely flush the nutrients from the soil. I'll be using Flawless Finish during flush, so that should make it faster. The light power was increased today. I brought it back up to 90% to get the DLI back to normal. Now it's 50 mol/m²/d in the center, 45 mol/m²/d surrounding the center and 42 mol/m²/d along the walls. Great coverage and I get to keep the 24" light distance. I'm very happy with this so far. I may need to drop the power again after the week rounds out. We shall see. I may only need to raise the light an inch or two. Either way, I'm happy. The environment is finally getting back to normal from last week's wonky weather. Today, it's sitting at 76° with a humidity of 55%. It should drop down to around 52% by this afternoon. The DLI should end up being 1.42 kPa. Currently it's at 1.33 kPa. Not bad, but still not where it needs to be ideally. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 57.1% VPD: 1.26 kPa (That will adjust back tomorrow) April 13, 2024 Nothing going on today. The one cola on Tropicana Cookies that got tied down is already pointing straight up again. Tropicana C looks great! Nice tops and just about ready to start on bud production. It looks like we have a couple 24" plants. The yield should be pretty good. The lighting stayed the same and I'm pretty sure it will remain the same for the next couple weeks. Then I will be dropping the intensity down for the last week and a half or so. The environment is now off again. The temp is way too low, but the humidity is fine. It should adjust again this afternoon. Updated Correction: I ended up cutting some leaves off after all. Not a ton but several. I looked at Tropicana Cookies from a side door and found clusters of big leaves. Those got cleaned up along with a few top leaves that were blocking bud sites. That should be it for the rest of the grow. I'll check back one more time and see what's needed. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.5° RH: 52.0% VPD: 1.32 kPa April 14, 2024 Today is the final day of defoliation. I am planning on doing a proper defoliation this time. Nothing crazy, but the stretch has just finished up on both ladies and they need their final haircut. That being said, I think I'll remove the SCroG net for now. Then I can pull each plant out for inspection and defoliation. That way, I can clear out leaves that are sticking too far out and touching walls or other plants. I did do a minor defoliation this morning, but that was only what I could see in a crowded tent. So the rest will be done outside of the tent. Although, I'm not sure I'll have a lot to snip. That's a good thing. It's early afternoon and I have pulled the SCroG net out. I've also pulled both ladies and did a full defoliation. Well, about 15% leaf removal. As I said, this is the last defoliation for the rest of the grow. Tropicana Cookies looks great with the net off. There were tops that were being held down over other tops and some tops that were just bent. After removing the net, everything leveled out and the canopy spread is quite nice. The buds on this plant are insane. Internodal spacing is about 3/4" and it's all the way up each cola. When these ladies fatten up, they will have super long colas that should be thick with trichomes and hopefully no severe bending. Tropicana C got about the same 15% removed. She opened up quite a bit and there were definitely clusters I missed earlier on. Actually, quite a few on both plants. Anyway, this lady has great canopy penetration and air flow. What she also has is bud sites literally everywhere. Top to bottom. The colas are top to bottom, about 12" each. Maybe 15". I'll measure next week. I didn't move the light at all today. The DLI on the tallest tops is around 50 mol/m²/d while the rest of the canopy is around 45 mol/m²/d. No sense in changing anything at all. I may have to lift a couple other plants up that are sharing the tent. They are a bit shorter than these two. The environment looks good today. With a temp of 77° and the humidity around 53%, the VPD is very nice at 1.44 kPa. The average is looking great as well. However, I think I need to do something about the night temps. I believe they are still a bit too warm from the dehumidifier. I may have to increase the exhaust fan power at night to compensate for that. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 52.6% VPD: 1.39 kPa April 15, 2024 Watering day! With the SCroG net down, I can pull the plants out. Which means I was able to clean out the basins and refill with fresh nutrients. I pulled the Big Bud and replaced it with 8 ml Overdrive. It may be too much. I really should have started at 4 ml. Live and learn I guess. We shall see how they react. I was also supposed to pull the Sensizym, but forgot that entirely. I'll have to pay more attention to what I'm doing. I'll take it out next watering. If the plants have any issues with the Overdrive, I'll just leave it out next watering. Simple. Both plants look fantastic. Tropicana Cookies ended up with one super tall top. It's fine though, I'm keeping it outside of the canopy. As much as I can anyway. Tropicana C looks great as well. She has multiple tops that are all about the same height, but the majority are shorter. Both plants have tons of bud sites. In the hundreds I'd say. Maybe 150 to 200. It seems like a lot, but they are everywhere on each plant. They are super happy and healthy. The lighting was left alone today. I may check it later today or tomorrow. The plants aren't quite reaching as much as I'd prefer for now. I may have too much light on them now. I'll drop the power back down to 80% if need be... Maybe. The environment is really good today. Staying strong at 75° and 50% humidity. The only thing I really need to work on is night temps. It's much too high between 71° and 73°. I'd much rather have it between 66° and 68° especially during this stage. I'll have to turn my air conditioner on soon. No problem. It is a bit too warm in my room at night for my liking as well. Update: I lifted the light an inch this afternoon. Now the plants have a slight reach going on. It also helped with leveling the DLI out better. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.3° RH: 50.2% VPD: 1.45 kPa April 16, 2024 Not a lot going on today. Just some watering I think. That won't be until later this afternoon. Speaking of watering, I am happy to find both ladies at the exact same water level. It's great to see. They are drinking the gallon in just under 3 days now. I think the intake will increase in the next week or so. When the buds start to swell up. Tropicana Cookies has a few taller tops that are loaded with buds and stacks. Maybe 8" long each? But it doesn't stop there. I didn't lollipop these plants at all. They have buds all the way down to the base. The coolest part is, they are all roughly the same size. Top to bottom. I'm hoping my finishing touches bring me top quality buds throughout the plants. That would be an impressive yield. The lighting is perfect where it is. The taller tops are on the outside of the footprint and aren't getting as much direct light. It's keeping the DLI for them down to around 48 mol/m²/d. Still a bit high, but I'm not too worried about it. The environment is great today. Not only is it 76° with the humidity at 51%, but I finally got the night temp down to 66°. It was a steady climb down, and the average was around 68° which is ideal. I wouldn't mind it being at 66° all night to help bring out the colors. We will see how things go as we get closer to harvest. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.5° RH: 52.3% VPD: 1.32 kPa April 17, 2024 Not much to do today. Tropicana C needed some branch movement. A little crowded in some spots. It's all good now. But that's it. I didn't bother pulling Tropicana Cookies out today. She looks good and I'll pull all 4 plants out tomorrow. Mostly to comfortably refill the reservoirs for these ladies. They will definitely need a refill tomorrow morning. I haven't changed the light at all. I won't for the next 2 or so weeks. Then I'll drop the power down to 70% and for the final week will drop to 60%. That should see the DLI at around 38 mol/m²/d and 35 mol/m²/d respectively. The environment is looking fantastic. The night temp is finally down to 67° and the day temp has climbed up to about 76°. The humidity is staying strong at 51% with small dips into the high 40's. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.0° RH: 50.0% VPD: 1.40 kPa April 18, 2024 Both ladies got water today. Tropicana C was completely dried out. Whoops. Tropicana Cookies was just at the bottom. Either way, both got refilled today. Not much going on otherwise. I pulled them out for inspection. Everything looks great! Both plants have buds everywhere top to bottom. The branches are a little thin for my liking and I may have to put the net up on their side. The light is staying where it is. The tallest tops on each plant are a bit too close to the light, but that will be adjusted in a week or so. Currently the rest of the canopy is happy at 45 mol/m²/d. Looking great! The environment is a bit off today. It's kind of rainy and dreary here today, to the humidity is up higher than I'd like and the temp is a bit lower as well. It should fix this afternoon. The current temp is 75.8° with the humidity at 54.8%. The VPD is kind of low as well at 1.33 kPa. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 53.3% VPD: 1.33 kPa

06/29/2022 Got my seeds today, soaking Jiffy peat pellets with bio-remedy. Once pellets are thoroughly wet I will drop seeds and begin germination. 07/02/2022 AK 2.0 are in tan pots Bruce Banner is in green pots 07/04/2022 AK 2.0 are up, the Bruce Banner should be in the next 24 hrs.🙏🏻 07/05/2022 Today is bittersweet Bruce Banners all popped up last night this morning there is 1 and 1/2 Little pinchers killed one ate all most the whole 2nd plant I don't think she will live,😞 bright side is I still have 3 AK 2.0 and 1 Bruce Banner!😀 See you all in a couple of days or so to start veg. 07/09/2022 Down to 2 AK 2.0 and 1 Bruce Banner. Should be getting ready for veg by next week. 07/12/2022 A 2nd Bruce Banner is fighting to survive! So watering with (BIO- REMEDY) Giving her best chance to establish good roots.

5/8 Watered both with plain PH'd water yesterday. Both of the plants are sucking up leaves. Trichomes are only really looking amber on the brown leaves, but otherwise milky. 5/10 Decided that these brown-leaved buds on Trainwreck were ready, so I tried a little bro-science and watered an hour before harvesting. Noticed there were some really nice green young buds intertwined, so I did my best to trim around to leave them for another week or so. No weight measurements yet, will wait till after trimming and before curing.
