11/29 - At this point in the game, plants don't ever look much different day-to-day! I'm wondering, though, if this one is showing her starting to fade... it's either that or she's needing some stronger PK nutes... any thoughts? 12/2 - I'm going to start winding her down... gotta pick up some Ripen and some Flawless Finish ... Probably going to have to shorten the period of time I use these products but hell, she's pretty used to me screwing up - LOL! 12/03 - so my local grow store was out of Ripen - so I guess I'm going to forget that one... I'm going to let her go until Tuesday when she will be exactly 13 weeks old and start a 3-day flush using General Hydroponics FloraKleen (they also did not have Flawless Finish!).... Planning to chop her next Saturday unless the amber hasn't really made its presence known... We'll see.... I'm just going to go by what she tells me... but it really IS time, old girl... it really is. 12/04 - Doing a bucket change today, she's going to an EC of 0.2-0.4 or thereabouts and I'm not going to worry about the pH - my tap water is about 7.5 so that's what she's getting unless I relent and drop it to the upper 6's - I'm just not going to overly concern myself with it. I think her bulking has finished and SHE needs to finish up. Found a few amber on leaves in the middle of the plant and I know those can really be rather ignored .... but I'm still concerned about the trichs on the main cola - haven't seen much change between milky and clear for a while now... so it's puzzling to me. Maybe the drop in EC will kick her into truly finishing... if it doesn't, I can always bring the EC back up, the pH back down and keep her going... She's always been my "experiment" - always been my "tester" - so why not experiment at this stage of her life as well?!

Day 42-49 (Day 42) Just watered today but couldn’t go until runoff because I didn’t have enough RO. I forgot to add the probiotic too. Nonetheless, everything is starting to recover from those weird deficiencies and is looking super healthy. Plants are really bushing out now too. I had to top the zkittlez and BBB#3 again as they are just getting too big. Nothing is definitively showing sex yet but I’m seeing clues. Shouldn’t be long now. If I get 4 females or less I will use 10gal pots, 5-7 fem 5gal pots and 8-12 3gal pots. I need to stop overwatering. Even though it doesn’t look too overwatered, it is much better to water a little bit each day at lights on. This will help keep the humidity down as well as deliver optimal oxygen to the roots speeding up plant growth considerably. (Day 45) Gave an EM1 spray down today. The beneficial bacteria is said to overpopulate surfaces so powdery mildew and septoria can’t form. Something seems to be really working as I haven’t seen any yet. (Day 47) I sealed up the tent and am running both dehumidifiers and it’s keeping the RH around a safe 70% night and day which is right on track with VPD. Plants are all looking super healthy. Deficiencies have pretty much all cleared up. Cold nights I’m running 600w and warmer nights I’ll run 400w. I was asking around Instagram about white ash/good burn and a few different people assured me it has to do with mineral content of the soil. I was told the three best products for clean ash is glacial rock dust/basalt, oyster shell flour and langbeinite. I already have langbeinite so I’ll grab the other amendments today and top dress. I grabbed the amendments and also got some Destiny Organics dark matter super soil, coco and some beneficial nematodes. Top dressed each amendment except langbeinite and mulched in some coco coir. (Day 48) My shelf came in today and I think it may be to big for the 4x4 tent. Each square is 12”, not the 11.8” advertised. I could wipe down my flower room and set it up in there which would give my plants a good adjustment to the new lights before I flip. Or I could set it up in the veg tent but that seems like a huge hassle as the need to be moved and flipped soon anyway. I wish they would show sex already so I can toss out the plants I’m not keeping. For flower I am considering starting over fresh with the new Destiny soil and coco mixed with some amendments. I’m concerned that my current mix might be too hot. I could also dilute it with the Destiny/coco mix. Those little bulb mites that came in with the worm castings are a little concerning as well. Some say they are just beneficial composters aka “worm bin mites” and others are telling me they’re predatory bulb mites which destroy crops like garlic. I’m leaning towards beneficial composters but in another grow I watched them devour a seedling before it sprouted. Gotta check the current roots but the plants aren’t quite ready to be transplanted. (Day 49) Got everything in the flower tent wiped down and sprayed with alcohol then EM1 few hours later. Got the shelf set up and got all my temp controls set up and running. I put the controllers outside the tent this time and will patch any light leaks. Gave a lite compost tea at 830ppm and a velokelp foliar spray at 6ml/L. This will be the last veg feeding before I transplant into their final containers on the 31st. BCTG#2 is a confirmed male and I pulled him. No one else is showing definitively. Roots looked super healthy with very few mites but I’m not 100% convinced they’re all clean. I saw a few mites on leaves today too. Saw a bit of droop after the move but they all look happy just a few hours later. Took a few clones from some sucker branches on a few of the blackberries.

hello growers" I started the 2nd week of flora by cleaning the reservoirs, adding a new nutrient solution and adding ADVANCED NUTRIENTS BIG BUD and making a big deloliation. 👊 For the beginning of the 2nd week of flora a LOLIPOP pruning was also done. ------- We completed another week, the buds are growing at an accelerated pace. Next week when I'm cleaning the reservoirs, I'll do a new defoliation on the girls. I'm running out of space in my tent they are growing absurdly. 👽

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Empieza el show 20 de julio Realizamos cambio a 12h. Se avecina una muy gorda, intentaré realizar actualizaciones diarias a poder ser porque me interesa muchísimo ver como se desarrolla y espero que vosotros también. SEMANA 0 20 al 26 de julio En diferencia a mis cultivos habituales esta vez voy a empezar desde la semana 0. Nuestros compañeros de Crazy Roots nos están ayudando y con la experiencia que tienen nos lanzamos con los ojos cerrados 😝 Ya empieza a levantar las ramas a las que hicimos supercropin. Estamos muy contento con el entrenamiento que realizamos, los resultados están siendo muy buenos. 21 de julio Riego con unos 2.2l 1 vitamax + 2.5 Sólo tec + 2 bloom fuel + 0.3 silica power PH : 5.6/5.7 Th20 : 25°C Da gusto verla, la verdad es que se está poniendo bonita, pero otra vez pide de comer. Iremos suavemente que esta es una larga batalla y mejor quedarnos cortos que ir pasados. 23 de julio Riego foliar con tierra de diatomeas como preventivo. 24 de julio Se nos han quedado restos blancos de la tierra de diatomeas en las hojas pero no es nada preocupante, más bien estético. Además aprovechamos para hacer poda foliar que ya tocaba y teníamos un arbusto... hacemos limpia y vamos dejando las ramas que nos interesa para floración. Las temperaturas rondan los 27°C pero hot hacemos un cambio importante. Vamos a cambiar nuestro lec de 315w por 2 jackson (placa led) de 150w de la marca Grow the jungle, veremos que sale, seguro que algo bueno. Esperamos bajar las temperaturas un poco con este cambio y conseguir más homogeneidad en el cultivo. 25 de julio Hacemos un riego más ligero para no pasarnos con la fertilización. Regalos con 1.5l aprox 2.5 ml Bud fuel pro + 2.5 ml bloom fuel PH 6.2 EC 0.6ms Th20: 22.5°C 26 de julio Se acaba esa primera semana 0. Hoy ponemos el quemador de azufre a funcionar por unas 5h, tenemos que prevenir todo lo que se pueda porque una vez salgan las flores no habrá margen de error. También hacemos un riego foliar con Delta nueve usando 4,5ml•l Por comentar como reflexion: Nunca en mi vida había visto algo así. Ya había leído que era una planta compleja, que hay que darle de comer con cuenta gotas, que estira mucho.. Pero vivirlo en primera persona es diferente, y todavía no estamos en una floración avanzada.. Hace mucho que esta planta dejo de tener sentido. Es muy difícil sacarle fotos porque es muy frondosa y compleja, increible lo que ramifica, he andado doblando ramas y entrelazandolas sin sentido con la intención de intentar controlarla pero ella es indomable. Como tengo unas amnesia en el mismo cultivo el nivel de nutrientes es bastante bajo pero aún así, la ves y ves que te pide nutrientes pero riegos con una ec de 1ms y se engarran las hojas (sobrefertilizacion). He visto diarios de gente ponerla a 30cm y haciendo poda apical antes de pasar a flora y quedarse en 150cm.. Asique esto como reaccionará al cambio? Ha día de hoy pienso si es buena idea el haberla entrenado tanto y si seremos capaces de controlarla. Señoras y señores el ESPECTACULO ESTA GARANTIZADO!!!!

The plants are doing great (I think ?). Gave a molasses and silica watering . Also constantly checking for bugs & PM, which is rampant in another section of the my garden. Also added a layer of mushroom compost to GZ & the MPs. WC is getting closer to harvest as I am seeing some amber on the sugar leaves. I understand that sugar leaves turn first and intense heat/sun can cause premature amber. I have been having hard time seeing with the jewelers loupe that I have, so I ordered a digital microscope for the phone which should make it easier. Nose: Same as previous week, except MP#1 finally expressed that she is 100% strawberry. Still nothing noticable on MP#3 yet.

Hab ihr ehrlich gesagt nach den anfänglichen Problemchen nicht so viel liebe geschenkt. Nur mal mit Fish Mix von BioBizz gedüngt, man sieht eindeutig Sie ist hungrig. Finde sie hat aber ihre anfänglichen Probleme überwunden. Ich habe also gestern angefangen meine Pflanzenkohle zu aktivieren, dafür habe ich Osmosewasser mit Fish, Grow-Mix und etwas Wurmhumus eingelegt und öfter umgerührt. Normalerweise soll die Kohle bis zu 2 Wochen ziehen, minimum sollen wohl 24-48 Stunden sein. Ich habe in den Stopftöpfen wieder eine Drainage mit Blähton. Die Erde ist gemixt mit 5 L Wurmhumus, 20L Light-Mix, 12L Kokos, 3L Pflanzenkohle. Als Langzeitdünger habe ich 3 Biotaps NL reingebröselt.

The Bruce Banner girls are growing strong and full of energy this week.💪🔥 They’re all at slightly different stages, but overall doing great: #2 is the most advanced one, she’s already done stretching and started to produce trichomes early in the week.✨ #1 is still the biggest plant in the tent and finished her stretch around mid to late week, also showing the first trichomes by now.🌿 #3 kept stretching until the end of the week and is a bit behind in flower development, but she’s almost as tall as #2 now and catching up nicely.🚀 All three plants look healthy, rich green, and well-balanced, no signs of any issues. They were watered as usual with RO water + CalMag, and got one feeding of Orgatrex this week.💧 Environment stayed on point: 24.8°C, 55% RH, and PPFD around 900–1000 µmol/m²/s under the Spider Farmer SE5000, controlled by the AC Infinity AI system 🌡️. The stretch is almost over, trichomes are forming everywhere, and the tent is starting to smell amazing, everything’s moving in the right direction 😎✨

Things going well so far (fingers crossed) I did have a slight problem with a tray and it's pump. Hence why 2 plants smaller then the other 2. However have fixed that (put a new pump in) will keep an eye on them over next couple days..

Woche 2 - Weiteres Wachstum und Vorbereitung auf das finale Umtopfen In der zweiten Woche wurde die Wassermenge schrittweise erhöht, um dem wachsenden Bedarf der Pflanzen gerecht zu werden. Ich habe die Bewässerung auf 300 ml alle zwei Tage erhöht, weiterhin ohne Düngerzugabe. Die beiden Sherbzooka Ladies ernährten sich noch vollständig von den in der Biobizz Light Mix Erde vorhandenen Nährstoffen. Am 20.04.2024 wurde die erste Düngerladung Canna Terra verabreicht, mit einem Verhältnis von 10 ml auf 10 Liter Wasser. Der pH-Wert des Wassers lag bei 5,9 und der EC-Wert betrug 1,0. Die Pflanzen zeigten keinerlei Symptome von Mangel oder Überschuss. Am 21.04.2024 wurden die Pflanzen abends in ihre finalen 9-Liter-Töpfe umgetopft. Die Pflanzen waren sichtbar gesund, kräftig und zeigten ein starkes Wachstum. Die durchschnittliche Temperatur blieb sehr stabil, und die Luftfeuchtigkeit wurde weiterhin manuell erhöht. Dazu habe ich täglich 500 ml Wasser in tiefen Tellern, verteilt auf vier Teller und fünf Handtücher, verwendet, um die Feuchtigkeit zu regulieren. Die Beleuchtung war fest eingestellt: Das Licht ging um 06:40 Uhr an und schaltete sich um 00:40 Uhr aus, was den Pflanzen einen stabilen Tag-Nacht-Rhythmus gewährte. Insgesamt verlief die zweite Woche sehr erfolgreich, und die Pflanzen waren bereit, noch weiter zu gedeihen. ENGLISH Week 2 - Continued Growth and Preparation for Final Transplant During the second week, I gradually increased the amount of water to match the plants' growing needs. I raised the watering amount to 300 ml every two days, still without any added nutrients. The two Sherbzooka ladies continued to thrive on the nutrients provided by the Biobizz Light Mix soil. On April 20th, 2024, the first dose of Canna Terra nutrients was given, with a ratio of 10 ml per 10 liters of water. The pH of the water was 5.9, and the EC level was 1.0. The plants showed no signs of nutrient deficiency or excess. On the evening of April 21st, 2024, both plants were transplanted into their final 9-liter pots. The plants remained visibly healthy, strong, and showed significant growth. The temperature stayed very stable, and I maintained the humidity manually by placing 500 ml of water daily across four plates and five towels, which helped regulate moisture levels in the room. Lighting was kept consistent, with lights turning on at 6:40 AM and off at 12:40 AM, providing a steady day-night cycle. Overall, the second week was a great success, with the plants ready to continue thriving.

Im so excited to see how these girls are going to turn out!! We'll definitely update midweek if anything exciting happens, thanks for dropping by and happy harvests everyone!! ❤️💡🌱 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

Tag 70 : Die 4. Blütewoche beginnt. Die Shogun wächst prächtig. Die Zweige in der Mitte sind kerzengerade gewachsen, nur die 4 Zweige in den Ecken muss ich stützen. Sie besitzt unglaublich viel Blütenansätze 😍 Ich habe sogar noch ein paar cm für die Lampe 😎 Alles in allem ist die Dame ausgesprochen pflegeleicht 😘
