Gave her a heavy defoliation! She's growing very strong, and needed a little thinning out! The defoliation promotes the lower buds growth, by allowing more light penetration! The defoliation also ensures that airflow throughout the plant is strong!

Week 12 looks girl #1 is coming to a end. I haven’t over fed or over watered and she’s starting to get yellow leaves. I feed her one more time at the end of this week. Starting week 13 I’m going to start to flush her. Her smell has gotten more intense this week also. She smells like sweet tropical citrus. Also she looks to be filling in more and her buds are starting to get a little dense. She definitely exceeded my expectations. I couldn’t have predicted from veg she would be this size. Girl#2 unfortunately never started flower and she’s going get 12-12 after I harvest girl #1. I’ll start another diary for girl #2 when that time comes. I knew she would be long winded but this is just extreme 😂. I know you experienced growers know this story very well, but for a rookie like me 😆 I’m pulling my hair out and punching the air with frustration 👊🤬🤯😁. This for me is a learning experience and I love the duality of this grow. I’ll know better next time I run into this time of issue. Thank you for viewing my diary. I will be looking to possibly harvesting this girl in the next few weeks or sooner,

A dehumidifier was added in the past week Since the grow box is in an open room, bought one that could bring down the humidity for the whole house. That room stays around 44% and the box around 50%. I took a few pictures and a video using a magnifying glass as well. Might be a week or two from flushing so that I can harvest.

Day 1 today 3/17 on wedding cheesecake auto by fastbuds. One of their newest releases I can't Express happy I am to have the opportunity to grow this :*. One orange sherbet lands at my house I'm going soak them and get that running as well. At the end of the week doing wonders :) so happy

3/21: Just letting her do her thing for now contemplating on taking a few leaves off 3/22: I talked to the company yesterday that I purchased my light from in early February they said my Optic 4 XL LED will ship out this upcoming week......I’m definitely happy about that news I really need more light what I have right now since I had to take down my cheap Chinese blurple isn’t cutting it 3/24: Fed plain water and took off a few bottom leaves, in a few days I’m going to pry her open more then I’m gonna try not to fuck with her as much unless it’s necessary. Received email that my Optic 4XLs shipped finally

3/22: I’m really just loving her structure she’s perfect. Can’t wait till I get my Optic 4 XL’s this upcoming week and see what that does to her, I’m starting to see the 1st hairs since flipping....it sucks ordering something and then have to wait a month and a 1/2 For something because it’s extremely back ordered. 3/25: As I keep saying I’m really digging her structure I’m not gonna be really doing much with her until harvest she’s a beast she’s the biggest medicine plant I’ve grown thus far. I finally got the notification of my Optic 4XLs being shipped so now I can get the real growing on and get rid of this cheap Chinese blurple.

Mango and headband seem to b at least a week ahead of the rest. Skywalker and Mr banger r closin in on bein a foot taller than the next closest strain. The Skywalker is even bout 6 inches taller then the banger. Debating on goin up to a gal and a half instead of just a gal for water and feeding.

This girl is on cruise control in her autopot

she really started to grow faster as she went into flowering so I kept the canopy level and installing a electric cable around my tent (remember cheap as possible) and using the pipe cleaner

Day 71 - Starting week 11 and now that I put my Cherry Cookies into 72 hours of darkness, she’s got a ton of room in the tent now. I gave her 2 gallons of water and nutes today and she’s finally starting to develop some trichs. A very small amount right now but they’re finally starting to show a little. Day 72 - Nothing really new going on today. She seems to like having a bit more room in the tent now. She’s doing good on water and should be for another couple of days. I just removed a few lower dead leaves today and tucked everything back down. Day 73 - Nothing really new today, just letting her fatten up and finally starting to get a little bit of frost on her. Gonna need to give her some water and nutes tomorrow. Day 75 - Went just a bit too long before giving her water. Pulled her out today and extremely droopy but gave her a good 2 gallons of water and nutes to hopefully perk her back up. Had a few more dead leaves at the bottom so removed them and I’ll check on her in a few hours to see if she’s perked up at all. Day 76 - Overall she’s looking good and looks like she’s getting a pinkish color forming. It’s also looking like she might have a Cal-Mag deficiency going on so will up the Cal-Mag the next feeding to hopefully help her out. Day 77 - The end of week 11 and she going along nicely still. She’s going to need some water and nutes tomorrow so I’m going to up the Cal-Mag this feeding. Instead of 5ML per gallon, I’m going to up it to 10ML and hopefully that will help her pull through her deficiency she’s got going right now.

Day 71 - Starting week 11 and this is her final week. She will be getting chopped on Friday. She’s still has quite a bit of white pistils but just about 100% of the trichs are milky with about 30% amber so that’s telling me she’s ready. I’ve never tried the 72 hours of darkness before harvesting but because I need some room in the tent, I went ahead and took her out and placed her into a dark cabinet until Friday. She’ll have decent airflow in there so she should be ok until Friday. Day 72 - Nothing new to update as of now. She’s just hitting her first 24 hours of complete darkness. I’ll give her a quick peak tomorrow and see how she looks and then will give her 24 more hours and chop her on Friday. Day 73 - Just a few updated pictures before chopping tomorrow. It’s been almost 48 hours of darkness and I’m not seeing much of a difference in her but she is definitely smelling REALLY strong.
