This grill went really well. In growing three different strains it did pose a bit of a problem later in flower due to differing light conditions needed by the three different plants. The Cali Kush being more Indica required less light and the jack Herer needed a bit more to finish nicely. This caused some light stress to the Cali Kush which caused late flower Hermes but didn’t cause any long-term problems like seeds or burn. All in all I’m happy with 600 g from a 4 x 4 tent and a 480 W light. This is especially true when you add in the Gaia Green and how easy it makes growing.

I am watering them a bit more than 1L f water every 2 days and allways adding nutrients, I give them Fast food + Shogun + Auto Stimulator + Calmag and 2 days after bio-bloombastic + calmag. Once every two weeks I also add bloombastic in both feedings since it is a low PK (1312, funny number though 👊😋) due to its organic procedence. The LSDs are the taller plants in the back and in the right wall of the grow tent and the ones in the center are blueberrys Overall I am very happy, LSDs are getting really mean main colas and it seems to me that they are not going to be ready this week, which is not what Barneys said but is better for me in order to get a greater harvest, and to be honest, me being a first time grower might have also played a role on the process lasting a little longer since I slightly overfed them the first week of flowering. I must also say that this is an exceptional genetic, I mean they are sooo sticky and have such a nice smell that I am crazy to try them once I finish. Also, I am going to try and get a narchotic effect on these LSDs by harvesting them when all the trichomes turn brown after a 5 day root washing

Looks like she recovered alright from the little dry patch in the watering schedule. Her leafs look healthy and vital, so I decided to top her on day 15 - maybe a day or two too early, we'll see. But I didn't just top her, I also removed the two top fan leafs - I'm aware, it's a tricky balance between the loss of energy produced from the leafs vs. giving the new growth underneath more light to stimulate growth. She'll be alright, I've got a good feeling about her! She also received a layer of Mulch on top of the first soil layer. The idea: aiding the microbial life on the soil surface and at the same time reduce evaporation to prevent the top soil layer to dry out too quickly.

Hello people, its been a good week Renaissance. She took well to PK 13/14 and is on Full Cruise now 🙌 There IS a slight tip burn which I am confident, will not spread further because I have already dimmed the Renaissance' side of the light to 75% brightness, besides I will lower the nutes now as well which should help. She smells very spicy (or minty perhaps) and flowery herbal undertones and is extremely sticky, more than the white widows. Her characteristics are supposed to be 80% Sativa. With THC content at around 10% and CBD at 4%. PK 13/14 will be stopped now (been 7 days), with lower A & B from here on. Take care all cya next week 🙏

Hi Growers. Day 21 Flower So this week I decided to defoliate as they are super leafy. I took that pile from each plant. I also took off any branches that I thought would be under the trellis. It’s being pushed up so it’s hard to tell. They are pretty happy regardless. The leaves I left are already quite big after 3 days. I did 2 hydrogen peroxide flushes around the defoliation to combat any possible pests and nutes weren’t gonna help in a slightly stressed state and they won’t hate some extra oxygen to the roots. I let them dry for 3 days and fed today. The Vipar Spectra XS2000 is growing these plants nicely, heating the tent a prefect amount. It’s so powerful in my 2x4, I’d love to see it in a 3x3. They’re happy with it up at 22-24” until I know they’ve stopped stretching. Pretty easy week. Just trying to keep them happy and growing big. Happy Growing 🌱

09.03.2023-первый день пятой недели начался с сломанного главного стебля (( Увы спасти его не удалось пришлось сделать “топпинг“. 10.03.2023- После поломки стебля “видимого“ стресса не испытал. По показаниям ppm стока стал активно пить воду (3 литра каждый день)и есть орехи . На этой неделе я начну давать 750 ppm 12.04.2023-взрыв роста за ночь !! Начинаю видеть предварительные цветы , думаю это последняя неделя вегетации(ей уже тесно в палатке ) Перевел на новое питание greenhouse feeding short flowering , сделав флаш новым раствором пока сток не сровнялся с входом Ppm 700 ph6.0 13.04.2023- Продолжает сильно растягиваться (особенно малышка , которой был сломан ствол заметно быстрей растет , ветки толстеют .Видимо перелом основного стебля направил соки в побочные ветки 👌🏻мне повезло 😂😂) обе пьют 3 литра в день ppm 700 ph6.0 14.03.2023- у девушке что поменьше обнаружил легкий ожог орехами , после замера ppm он показал 1100 . Принято решение сделать флаш раствором с маленьким содержанием Орехов , после чего ppm стал 600. Вечером этого дня срезал пару старых лопухов затемняющим свет . 15.03.2023- Этих девочек не остановить ! Рост каждый день , палатка полностью заполнена . Со дня на день она начнет цвести. Добавил лампу на 25w для более кустистой части (девушка без топпинга).

SUMMARY: Due to time constraints I decided in the end to make this the last week. I checked the trichs on both plants and the Amnesia now has plenty of amber heads and the OG now also has some albeit much less. Though all trichs are at least milky with the exception of the rare clear head or 2. I did a quick flush watering with rain water only on Monday, Tues, and Thursday then left to dry until Saturday when I chopped them down. DAY 92 -------- Thursday 03/12/2020 I fed the plants. GWE 04/2020 updated schedule Week 9 Late Bloom nutes for the OG and then the Sensi Garden Peak nutes for the Amnesia. OG (in) = 5.5L pH 6.5 OG (out) = 0.6L (11%) pH 5.6 [0.9 drop] Amnesia (in) = 3.5L pH 6.4 Amnesia (out) = 1.6L (46%) pH 5.8 [0.6 drop] If my eyes don't deceive me it would appear that the Amnesia is finally starting to pack on some weight! Hopefully both will have a decent yield in 2 weeks time. The RH has been at 45-48% for the last week and the temps are consistent at 24°C and so we're right on track. DAY 94 -------- Saturday 05/12/2020 I fed the plants though gave the amnesia less volume as it doesn't need it. GWE 04/2020 updated schedule Week 9 Late Bloom nutes for the OG and then the Sensi Garden Peak nutes for the Amnesia. OG (in) = 5.5L pH 6.4 OG (out) = 0.4L (8%) pH 5.3 [1.1 drop] Amnesia (in) = 3L pH 6.2 Amnesia (out) = 1L (33%) pH 5.6 [0.6 drop] The OG is drinking more and more and both plants are definitely starting to pack on some weight now and I'm very excited. DAY 95 ------ Sunday 06/12/2020 I checked the trichs on both plants and its a good job I did as the Amnesia has plenty of amber heads (possibly upwards of 30% its very hard to confirm tbh as the usb microscope is handheld and so VERY sensitive to movement - it took me best part of 30mins to get enough clear shots for me to decide the Amnesia is done). I took shots of both trichs using my usb microscope but as its cheap and the app is freeware it is awful and so just clumps all your pics together and not in any particular order, or at least not in the order they were taken and so after spending 30mins+ taking pics I don't know which are from which plant! But both have amber trich heads showing though the OG doesn't have as many as the Amnesia as expected. I wasn't going to do a flush after doing some research and seeing that its a controversial topic over whether there is any benefit and my rationale being that I'd rather the buds be as big as possible and so it made sense to feed up until chop. However I changed my mind after not being able to find a reputable source that claims flushing is not beneficial plus the general consensus is that you absolutely must flush if using synthetic nutes which I am. I will flush from now until Friday and then chop on Saturday or Sunday. DAY 96 -------- Monday 07/12/2020 I watered with rainwater (pH between 6.2-6.4) giving the OG 6L and the Amnesia 5L to ensure plenty of runoff. DAY 97 -------- Tuesday 08/12/2020 I watered with rainwater (pH between 6.2-6.4) giving the OG 6L and the Amnesia 5L to ensure plenty of runoff. DAY 99 -------- Thursday 10/12/2020 This should technically be week 15 as of today but as I'm chopping on Saturday its just not worth creating another flowering week in this diary. I watered both plants for the last time today, both with rainwater (pH between 6.2-6.4) giving the OG 6L and the Amnesia 5L to ensure plenty of runoff. I will now let the plants dry out until harvest which will be on Saturday 12th. I have also knocked the lights off to leave them in darkness now until chop which gives them roughly 40 hours of darkness as advised by many. Apparently the darkness can somehow increase the potency though it seems this is another controversial topic and one I haven't done enough research on and so have decided to do so as all the tutorials/guides/diaries I've read do 12-72 hours of darkness before chop. If I don't chop this weekend then I'll be pushing it if I want another harvest before I go away next year. If this wasn't the case I would let these run until the Amnesia was about 50% or more amber to give the OG time to catch up as the OG genetics are much superior to the Amnesia.

some kind of mushrooms growing makes me happy knowing the microbial life down there is flourishing, still no visible slowing down in stacking and frost production.

Week 7! Blue Dream'in is what I am doing! I'm loving this strain and round 2 of this grow in particular. She's got amazing smell, starts with a pine then fades into a berry/fruity smell. She has shown signs of heat stress and a bit of extra feeding was provided last week. Of all 4, she's the one I'm most excited about! July 31 - added some close ups.

This week was another great week for the ladies, we are in week now 3 and did not have time to start this diary earlier but het better late then never. We are growing 5 out of 6 due to a fuck up did and accidently broke the stem in week 2 so 1 died but the others are striving like i haven't experienced before. I am pretty sure its because we choose are great genetic from Dutch passion but we also changed to Green House feeding and i must say that the results so far are great and their slogan keep it simple is exactly that super simple. Since we (We as in My Son and I) are already in week 3 they are slowly starting to show flowering and i see super healty plants that look different by the day. In closing i fucking love this hobby and sharing our experiences together on this website.😍

Day 70 The plants are in their 10th week and stacking nicely. Buds are dense, frosty, and starting to show that heavy, mature look. Trichomes are cloudy on most parts, and the smell has intensified a lot. Unfortunately, today I noticed a problem: one of the colas showed signs of bud rot (Botrytis). This happened because my exhaust fan (carbon filter system) was off for about 4 hours, which caused humidity to spike inside the tent. I immediately removed the affected bud and cut a bit deeper into the healthy tissue to make sure no rot remains. From now on I’ll be extra careful with airflow and humidity: Keeping RH below 50% Checking the fan setup twice a day Adding extra circulation inside the tent The rest of the plant looks healthy and unaffected, but I’ll monitor closely every day. This is the stage where dense flowers are most vulnerable. Overall, despite this setback, the grow is going well. The harvest window is getting close, and if everything stays clean, it should still be a solid yield.

Hello All! I'm BACK! I took a month off and I am so ready to get back to growing. I am adding a couple of things this grow different from my last. So look for some of the new things I am implementing. For starters! This time I will be growing from a seed. I purchased my seeds from Seed Supreme. The strain I will be growing this time is going to be SKunk#1. The Skunk#1 that i am growing this time is an Auto Flower. Two things are already different. Germinating from a seed, and growing an AutoFlower. 10/30/23 - Day 1 - Right now I chose to setup my heat mat, put the dome over the mat and put the water cup on the mat. I'm going to let the seed soak for 24 hrs. Tomorrow ill pull it out and put it in a damp cloth in side the dome with the heat pad. 10/31/23 - Day 2 - Happy Halloween yall! This is a good sign, less than 24hrs and the seed has already started to open. I got a paper towel wet, and I moved the seed to the paper towel. Ill keep her in the wet, paper towl. In the cup. Thats on the heat mat under the dome. Important to note, the heat mat is set for 120deg. Its off the ground on a table. I leave it on 24/7 during this whole process. 11/1/23 - Day 3 - I'm Really impressed. She already popped and sprouted a tail! I'm going to wait until her tail is sticking out a lot more before moving her to the LEAF box. So a couple of things got done today. I wanted to set up my Leaf box differently this time. Last grow I use the manual options for water and humidity. I was the person who would refill the water and the humidifier. This time I ran all the correct PVC to allow the Leaf Box to use the automatic process. I should be able to be super hands-off this time. I have an RO water system that I set up to feed the Leaf Box. I posted a Video of me taking the seed and planting it into Rockwool. I could start the Leaf box up now, but I want the seed to grow a bit more. Right now it's still on a hot mat, with plenty of water. I also added some Root Armor. 11/2/23 - Day 4 - The top of the seed is already starting to poke out. This seed has no chill.

GSC is a small bonsai in full form. The leaves are very green and in health the flowering phase has begun, the trunk is swelling to be able to hold tasty and fragrant buds.
