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?!

All I can say is that this thing is a beast. She likely only has a week or two left so I did one last small top dress with dry amendments as well as some ewc and super soil to top it off. Cant wait to watch this girl really fatten up. She’s already having trouble holding up the colas. 😎🍿🍻🌱

Took some clones 1 week before flipping to flower but forgot to take pictures. The video of the clones are from oct 1st. The Turnt smelled like chocolate cover strawberries but now are smelling of garlic and pepper with a bit of undertone of strawyberries. The Diesel smelled like lemon pinesol but now smells of citrus mixed with gas. The Banana Clipz smells of berries mixed with skunk. Paradiso smells of citrus mixed with fruit. Lung Buster smelled lightly sweet at first but now smells like berries mixed with a undertone of garlic,funk, and gas . Spilt Paint smells of berries mixed with diesel and funk.

This beautiful girl turned out to be a real strong queen who withstood very strong stresses, she is very persuasive for ScrOG, in 2-3 days when she comes out of the stresses I will switch the light cycle to 12/12.💚💚💚

Day22 Minor lst but that’s about it. She’s doing well and I just chopped her sister today, this girl and a few more left of this cultivar. Thinking we found the keeper already but only the cure will tell for sure.

I think she was locking out nutrients or something. She has stayed very dark, and it was taking a long time for her to mature. But now that she is being flushed, she's filling in and growing nicely. Very resinous and looks like she's gonna be dense

This week buds are super dense and getting frosty by the day. Starting to wish I made the best use of space as some of the lower canopy not recieving as much light. A little difficult to reach all plants. Arimq is very strong and citusy , pungent & fruity.

Flower day 17 - All the ladies are looking great, starting to see a lot of bud sights & the smell is definitely getting stronger everyday I open the tent! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼 Flower day 19- Got a bigger dehumidifier because I was having problems on days I would water the humidity would go through the roof at night so to prevent mold I bought a bigger dehumidifier but now it is throwing off so much heat the tent is pushing 90 degrees F at some points throughout the day so I’m not exactly sure how to fix the issue! Will definitely not be running so many plants in the next run for the 5x5! Hopefully things get better!😅😅

Day 83 Day 41 Flower This Royal Creamatic has done amazingly well. I'm very impressed royal queen seeds!! She has finalised, soil has returned to dry, I also did 24hrs of darkness on last day to help boost trichome development, not sure if worked or not but she is very tasty looking! Trichomes now seeing amber and pinks they look amazing, the smell is unreal, a caramel sweet hint then BANG straight gas to the nose and throat 😂 safe to say she'll be a hitter 💪💚 Overall I'm impressed with what I achieved from a 3gal fabric pot, on a whim I threw 3 seeds in, kept 2. Topped one, and found this strain prefers to just have lst and support during flower as she does present some dense flowers 🙌 I have a wet bud weight of 570g. Trimmed wet buds are 423g Wet trim 47g I will be hanging for 7-10 days, possibly 14 due to size of nuggets 😅. I'll update dry weight then 🤞 Bud dry weight 287g!! It smells incredible! Gassy, pungent straight to the nose, but then it's a sweet caramel / vanilla tone. Smoking - 😍😋, damn, my partner only had 4-8drags normally, but she described this one as a caramel biscuit ice cream, that tasted that good she smoked past the high 🤦‍♂️😂🤣🚀🚀 She was off, half a joint and done. Giggles, munchies, sex sleep. I enjoyed. It on the other hand, straight the eyes, dry throat, munchies as soon as stubbed out. Then we had amazing connection s+x 😁. One of my favourite strains I've done so far. Thanks everyone for following, comments and the likes 🙏 Stay high growmies ✌️💚

March 1, 2024 Day 15 Lots to do today. I added nutrients, changed the watering schedule, increased the light intensity, adjusted the light power level and readjusted the height. I've also changed the environment slightly. Starting with watering and nutrients. As I said last week, I changed the watering schedule from 250 ml daily to 500 ml pHed to 6.0 every other day. It's the same amount of water, but a different application. It should help keep the soil moist from top to bottom slowly. 2 more of these 500 ml waterings should put the containers to runoff and then I stop and install the bottom feed systems. Moving on to nutrients. I've started them in their regimen for the veg stage. 2 ml/ gallon of each of the Advanced Nutrients 3 part base solution plus 2 ml/gal Advanced Nutrients Sensi Cal/Mag Xtra. That will be added every other watering. And the Recharge will be added at the start of every week. Next is the lighting changes. Increased light power from 30% to 40% Light height is now 28" DLI: 22.7 mol/m²/d PAR: 350 ppfd This in turn brings me to the last change of the environment. The temp will stay roughly the same between 76° and 77° for the whole of the veg stage with the RH hovering between 60% and 62%. I'm also going to try to increase the night temp to 70° and turn off the humidifier to keep the RH at 60% during lights out. That's all for today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.3° RH: 60.3% VPD: 1.09 kPa March 2, 2024 Today I'm having a debate with myself. The containers aren't heavy enough for the plants ages. So I'm thinking maybe 250 ml one day and 500 ml the next. And so on until the containers are moist enough. So 250 ml today at some point. And because they are starting to show signs of nitrogen deficiency now, I think I'll have to keep the nutrients in for the rest of the week. Next week, when the pots are full, I'll then switch to feed every other watering. Lighting is looking spot on. They are reaching slightly and look perfect. Next week, I think I'll increase the light power up to 60%. There should be plenty of foliage to capture all the light. I'll also be starting training by the end of this week and into next week. Whenever they get tall enough to touch the side of the containers, is when I'll start training. I have air circulation, but not blowing directly on the plants yet. Hopefully that keeps the stalk malleable so I can comfortably be d them down as needed. I may also top them. I have discovered that a topped plant for me means a huge harvest. Every plant I have ever accidentally topped or mangled has provided wonderful yields. I had a Zkittlez that gave me 6.5 oz, a 6 oz Skywalker and the best so far, a Gorilla Cookies that yielded 21.5 oz! That being said, I feel like it's in my best interest to top them and go from there. However, I won't be topping right away. I find that the breaks happen during training when there's a good amount of branches. It's accidental, but still works wonders. We shall see how things go over the next 2 weeks. That should be it for veg, 2 more weeks. Finally, the nutrient regimen. Because the plants are suffering a small amount of nitrogen deficiency, I may increase the dose to 3 ml/gal instead of the 2 ml/gal. I'm also thinking about doubling the dose of Cal/Mag. The deficiency isn't bad, but I'm not 💯 certain what the deficiency is. Nitrogen or Cal/Mag. One of the three or maybe an iron issue. That should be fixed with the nutrients. Update: I decided to water in 250 ml after all. I didn't water at the base though. I feel that is crucial in not overwatering the young plants. When I water the 500 ml tomorrow, I'll water the base. It seems to be working. Also, I am wondering if I should do a foliar spray with the nutrients just to help speed up the nitrogen intake. I'll have to research if I should or not. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 60.9% VPD: 1.10 kPa March 3, 2024 Both plants are now showing signs of nitrogen deficiency. I'm not surprised, but still, I need to fix it. So I increased the dose from 2 ml to 3 ml for the whole regimen except for the Recharge. That stayed the same. They got their 500 ml watering today as scheduled. The bases were also watered. Hopefully with the nitrogen coming in, they don't stunt. The soil moisture is about half way down the container. today's watering may bring it down to 75% of the container. I'll have to check later on after the soil has time to absorb. Technically it should drop in a few hours from the 43% it is now to about 35%. That's how I know the lower soil has absorbed the water. Tomorrow I'll do another 250 ml without watering at the base. This seems to be working quite well. I think I'll be good by the end of the week for watering. The basins will be installed next week I think. The plants should be big enough for the bottom feed system by then. Other than the nitrogen deficiency, they are beautiful and growing very nicely. I did notice that A is a tiny bit smaller than B and the leaves are a slightly different shape. Different phenome maybe? I'll find out. I had to raise the light up an inch as well. I'm trying to keep the DLI at 22.7 mol/m²/d for the next day or two. I will most likely increase the power to 50% tomorrow and mess with the distance. That way, when I transition to 60% next week and increase the DLI, it should go smoothly. The environment is spot on and has been for a couple of days now. Let's hope for less wonky weather for the next few weeks. The temp is hovering around 77° during the day and 70° during lights out. The RH is staying strong at 61% day and night. Very happy with that. I did increase it to 62% yesterday to keep the temp in check. Worked like a charm. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 62.1% VPD: 1.11 kPa March 4, 2024 I have found my differences between the the plants. BPP A is slower to grow and has thinner leaves. I feel like this may be a sativa leaning phenome. It makes sense. Sativa's take longer and they have thinner leaves. But because this strain is a hybrid, the leaves aren't as thin. She only has one set of leaves and the first node hasn't opened up yet. Could be stunted or as I'm thinking, but it's still slower. Either way, I'm going to keep an eye on this one. If it's a stunt or a dwarf, I'm not keeping it. I'll toss it and make room for the other plants in the tent. BPP B is further along with fatter leaves and already on its second node. I can already see the branches popping out. So things are moving along nicely. However, I feel like she isn't growing as fast as she can and that's definitely my fault for not adding nitrogen a bit earlier than I did. She still has beautiful green leaves. And looks super healthy. Beautiful stalk. Nice and thick. They got their 250 ml watering today without watering the base. I guess I could just say that the 250 ml never gets watered on the base. Anyway, they still need more water. If the 500 ml doesn't do it tomorrow, I'll do another 500 ml the next day. And the day after as well. I really want a bit of runoff before I install the basins. Both plants are slightly leaning in toward the center of the light. That tells me I need to either rotate or raise the light and increase the power. But I think I'll have to increase the footprint so the outside of the plants get the light they need. Also, when the basins gets installed, the plants will spread out to their own quadrant. Frankly, I'd really like the bar style light from AC Infinity. The board style is too concentrated in the center. Anyway, I'll hold off on the installation for next week. I may rotate later today to get the plants to stand straight up. I may increase the Grow base for tomorrow's watering. I'd like to get more nitrogen in the plants earlier rather than later. Plus I'm pretty sure I won't be able to poison them with any toxicities. They are definitely low on everything. It should fix soon, but I need growth now. So I may do the additional grow base afterall. One thing I would happily like to mention is the environment. This is the first grow I've ever done that has had a super level environment. Very little variation from day and a from night. RH stays basically the same from day to night at around 61% and 62%. The day and night temps are also spot on. Day time temp is around 77° and 78° with night temp being around 69° and 70°. It's perfect. I increased the light intensity to 450 ppfd today. I increased the light power up to 50% and moved the light up a bit to compensate. As mentioned before, this should help fix the lean the plants have. I may also turn my supplemental lighting on and bring it to the top of the canopy. I might be able to decrease the power level on the main light and save some money on the electric bill. DLI: 27.2 mol/m²/d PAR: 420 ppfd (completely on purpose 🤣) Power: 50% That's all for now. A bit to do today Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.0° RH: 61.7% VPD: 1.15 kPa March 5, 2024 Both plants are looking really nice. However, I'm still a bit concerned with Banana PP A. She's still not opening her second set of leaves. On the other hand, Banana PP B is looking great. They are both getting close to the edge of their containers. Right on que. In 2 days, they should be big enough to install the basins. Hopefully the roots will be close to the bottom where the wicks can work their magic. I watered in 500 ml today. I decided that I needed to increase the nutrients as we are coming to the end of week 2. So now I have all nutrients at 4 ml/gal except the Recharge of course. I may increase that for next week. I'm not sure that I've caught up to the nitrogen issue. I had to move the light up a half inch today. Not much, but I'm keeping the PAR at 420 ppfd until next week. The environment is spot on for the week so far. 78° and 60.5% humidity for the day so far. As for last night, temp at 70.7° and 62.5% humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 61.9% VPD: 1.14 kPa March 6, 2024 Good day today. Saw some major movements today. Lots of growth overnight and beautiful looking plants. They each got 450 ml of water today. I watered at the base anyway as I need the soil to be moist ASAP. I didn't mess with the lighting today. I'll check tomorrow to see if it needs to be lifted. As always, the environment looks great. Nearly spot on. Today is a bit warmer out and the temp is around 78° in the tent. Nothing I can't fix in a snap. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.9° RH: 61.7% VPD: 1.15 kPa March 21, 2024 Both ladies got their watering today. I increased the base grow nutrient to 8 ml for this watering. I also spaced out the waterings. I did 250 ml then waited an hour and added the other 250 ml. I also increased the Recharge to half a teaspoon from a quarter a teaspoon. Lighting is still fine. I'll be increasing the power and intensity tomorrow. So each plant is showing slight signs of nitrogen deficiency. It didn't get too far along, but still has a slight deficiency. The colors are nice and green still. I'd also like to note that Banana PPA is still a little bit behind. Not much, but still a bit. She's still the same height as the other one, so that's good. Environment is looks great as usual. No issues and definitely staying in my range. Tomorrow I'll be dropping the RH down to 58% but keeping the temp around 77° for the week. I'd also like to note that both plants have been rotating all on their own. It's intriguing how they are doing that. I'll have to start rotating in a couple weeks when they get bigger. Unless I have to run a net, then no rotation obviously. Still super interesting. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.5° RH: 61.5% VPD: 1.13 kPa

This week in my grow room has been full of developments. First, I added additional lights because I couldn't get the relative humidity (RH) under control. I ordered a dehumidifier, but it will take a few weeks to arrive, so I had to find a temporary solution. I also emptied the reservoir and refilled it with fresh water and nutrients. I secured the net to ensure it stays in place under tension. In two days, I plan to switch the light schedule to 12/12, hoping the plants will stretch a bit during the switch to avoid having overly large buds that aren't evenly spread. Seventeen hours later, I decided to keep the lights on a 16/8 schedule for a few more days. The plants are starting to show signs of something happening, so I want to see how they develop. I will keep you updated on the progress. Then, I received a message from my supplier that the dehumidifier would arrive today. Great news—time to spice things up! On June 2nd, the dehumidifier arrived, and I managed to get my Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) to 1.17! This is fantastic news, and I'm very curious how this will affect water usage. The dehumidifier seems pretty powerful, with water literally dripping out of the hose, so I'm no longer worried about high humidity levels. It's a shame it doesn't have a range setting, but I couldn't expect more for the price. I'm considering ordering the Dimlux Auxbox to set a working range and separate day/night settings. Thankfully, the dehumidifier has an auto-restart function after a power loss. On June 3rd, the night is over, and while my values are now more stable, I haven't noticed any significant differences in water absorption. What I do notice is that the pots seem much drier. The difference in leaf temperature compared to the room temperature has increased slightly, now about a 2˚C difference, indicating that evaporation has increased somewhat. Despite the dehumidifier cooling the air, the room temperature has risen. This is explainable since dry air heats up faster than humid air. The CO2 heater is also running significantly longer. So, although there are no immediately visible differences, there are indeed some changes. Today is the last short night of 8 hours, and tomorrow will be the first night of 12 hours. I am contemplating doing a 10-hour night first and will decide later tonight. After closely reviewing the video footage, I noticed some divergent colors on the leaves. My pH is currently 6.4, which I had adjusted to compensate for the low pH last week—a foolish decision in coco, I know. I plan to make videos of each individual plant for my records to investigate further. The light is too intense to inspect them up close, so the videos will help me get a better look.

Week 1. 14/09/2022 Spring is full on here acourding to Google but it's just not getting warmer. Full blow rain and wind. Had to bring in the tent that I got for protection. This will impact the grow and hopefully not too much. Finally the Sun is out and it's feeling like Spring. Time to get the soils biology in the right space. I cooked up a Tea that focuses on the Micro nutrition, Root development and Pest control. Use a airpump and lift it out for about 24 hours after the mix. Tea ingredients: Aloe Vera Garlic Cinnamon Molasses Fish Poop Prawn juice 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 Take a Hit! Thanks for reading!

Добрый вечер Сегодня ровно 2 недели как я перевел режим света 12/12 и 75 день жизни. Рост очень мощный, думаю он продолжится еще недели 2-3. Все вроде идет по плану, никаких замечаний не вижу. На 8 день она показала свой пол, а сегодня уже можно сказать что она цветет. Я всегда первые две недели считаю предцвет, и только начиная с третей недели начинаю считать цвет и в этот раз не будет исключений. На 12 день заменил лампу 5000К на две 200вт лампы со спектром светимости 3000К и 3500К. Сейчас в сумме у меня выходит 600вт, по бокам стоят со спектром 3500К и посередине 3000К. Все три лампы стоят на мощности в 75%. Полил ( 872ppm )-3л Bud Ignitor - 2мл/л; Влажность 44% - 54%; температура 21c - 24c 8-й день предцвета Полил ( 698ppm )-3л Влажность 40% - 52%; температура 21c - 25c 9-й день предцвета Полил ( 944ppm )-3л Cal-mag Xtra - 0,5мл/л; Bud Candy - 2мл/л; Влажность 43% - 51%; температура 21c - 25c 10-й день предцвета Полил ( 958ppm )-3л Влажность 43% - 52%; температура 21c - 24c 11-й день предцвета Полил ( 802ppm )-3л Bud Ignitor - 2мл/л; Влажность 40% - 51%; температура 20c - 24c 12-й день предцвета Полил ( 732ppm )-3л Piranha - 2мл/л; VooDoo Juice - 2мл/л; Tarantula - 2мл/л Влажность 38% - 51%; температура 20c - 26c 13-й день предцвета Полил 3л Влажность 36% - 49%; температура 21c - 27c 14-й день предцвета

My final week is here. She’s fading out, id like to have seen her hold her colour a little longer although the leaves around the bud sites are still a nice green colour. buds are tight and dense. More to follow as the week goes on. Update…. I’m 7 days into drying, she’s starting to dry at the heads and gets more sticky the further down the branch. Next grow I’ll definitely lollipop to the top 2 nodes as I’ve found she’s a little “airy down below”. I’ll strip the branches in another 5-7 days.
