Hello, my growing friend! I'm downloading new photos and day comments every new day, so go back and see full last week diary right now!
---------------
New week starts.
🌞12.12.2022
My girls looks healthier then ever after I flushed them both with 'GHE Clean' solution and gave them 75% of nutrient's 'Pre flowering' doze. I hope this trend will last till the very end of this run. Flowering in progress!
I sprayed them with 'SeaWeed' as usual and that's all for today's treat.
🌞13.12.2022
Today I watered my babies with 75% of 'GHE' nutrients plus 'Advanced PK' in a half of recommended doze. Their leaves looking downwards after the lights was ON and i think it's because of poore watering cycle or it's overheating. I increased lamp to plant distance to 40cm. I'll try to water them more often from now.
I sprayed them with 'GHE Protect' solution to stimulate immune system and it's a last time i using this nutrient.
Upd: 10hrs after watering they looks fantastic. It was water deficit. Flowers developing and smell increased.
🌞14.12.2022
I think my ladies like PK complex i gave them yesturday. Plus 2cm per 24hrs. More stigmas. Healthier look.
Ph don't want to go down, it stays ~7 ignoring sulfur I putted in substrate two waterings ago.
'SeaWeed' spraying today and nothing more.
🌞15.12.2022
+1cm today.
I changed girls diet.
Now they'll take 'GHE SeaWeed' with water directly. Plus 'Advanced PK' in a 80% of recommended dose. Also I stopped giving them 'GHE Mineral Magic' and 'GHE Diamond Nectar'. They aren't necessery when flowering in progress. All other nutrients ('GHE Flora TriPart', 'GHE O.G.Bloom') - goes in amount of 75% from recommended doze. I don't want to overfeed my babies. Also, EC of solution is ~1.2 as well. PPM is 830. I think this are max numbers to reach.
They were good sprayed with 'GHE Protect' once more. I'll spray them with pure water from now.
Upd: Before watering all leaves are bent down (I watering my plants every 48hrs) and they are rising up in a couple hours after the procedure. I need to water them more often, but I have my job wich cause me to hold some steady watering periods. I'll wait some time more and then will shorten watering time to once per day graphic.
🌞16.12.2022
And again +1cm per 24hrs.
It's nothing planned for today, only clean water spraing.
Watering stays for tomorrow.
I turned ON my main ventilation with two charcoal filters. There is no signs of a smell now, but it's too noisy. It's like a car engine running near my bed all the time. Well, I need to sacrifice something to get good results...
I love how my BPPa#2 looks. It's big and bushy. Now You can clearly see it's future bud brunches and I'm really satisfied with it growth. #1 is much smaller and it forming not so much yields. There are signs of overfeeding on it's leaves and that's why it goes like this. I think #1 was too small when i started feed them bouth in a 'pre flowering' mode. #2 swallowed it, but #1 couldn't.
I think she'll made it, with slightly smaller size, but as delicious as #2 will be.
🌞17.12.2022
I fed my girls with a seme mixture without 'G.H.Bloom' since it is bloom activator. It was really hard, because I got ill yesturday and have 38° temperature. But feeding is feeding. And clean water spraying, of course.
Upd: +4cm per 36hrs (I forgot to do mesurments in the morning).
🌞18.12.2022
Nothing special today, only fresh water spraing.
+1cm per 12hrs (almost 2cm)
My BPPa#1 and #2 looks different. #2 already has violet colour in its stigmas nodes. #1 all white and it has smaller hight (20cm, and #2 has 28cm). It looks like different strain. I don't think it is so, but interested, why.

Week ends.

12/3 Week 10
Brandy being harvested in the AM
Layla and Maggie got a PK 0-10-7 booster in 6.5 water @1 gal each still plenty of nuets in the pot just getting them all I can
12/4 Harvested Brandy numbers and pics also be in harvest week when others are done.
Not bad for a little plant we did not give much hope of producing. Trics look good - Into the dry box as the tent is full.
206 Grams Wet
*****UPDATE***** 12/8 78g dry
*****UPDATE***** 12/10 tested 0.5g after decarb and yep all we could have wanted, sativa-ish with good legs. More later
12/5 Fed Maggie and Layla 1 gal each at 6.5PH 12.5ml/gal Soul Peak PK booster, foliar of full cal-mag at lights out just to be sure.
Later
Just as I hoped it sparked new hair growth, they standing up nice and pretty New plants in tent
Quick foliar feed on Maggie, Cal-Mag 1 ml/qt
12/7
Last defoliation on Layla and Maggie just taking off the excess baggage and opening the air and light paths.
Layla is definitely ripening but I think one more dose of PK perhaps if not just water. Decide tomorrow
Maggie still aggressively building buds so she is absolutely getting more PK, remember there is Dr Earth in the pot so its not like she is being starved for other nuets.
I think Maggie, being a sativa pheno, may go another two weeks. Layla has to stay until the drying tent is empty, not using the boxes unless I must.
12/8
0.75 gal ea @6.4 Peak PK 12.5ml/gal
12/10 Looking good still finishing off pics at lights out
Tried to fix the nuet list , anything I dont use any longer or dry put to 0.01 dose.
Want to be able to say some things about some of this stuff at harvest.

Week 7 - The end's in sight.
Some unseasonal hot days here, 29° to 34° this week so, the shade cloth has come out and they're placed in an area with the most airflow. Aphids keep on appearing so I contiune to check and spray with water on infected areas to keep the pop as low as pos; so far i'am on top of them.
The pineapples are really packing it on and the smell is getting stronger every day. I've upped the nutes close to Biobizz's recommened and so far, there seems to be no negative feedback. Due to the heat I can't help but be a little concerned though humidity has dropped to during the day to about 50 and 80 at night for a few hours. I hope they're as resilient as their reputation suggests.
The lemonade contiunes to chunk up, though I think she's as tall as she's going to get. The smell continues to increase in intensity which actually compliments the pineapples nicely. Again the weather's abit of a concern, even more for this girl as Fastbuds recommened cooler temps for this strain; I wasn't banking on temps like this for another month or so yet. I'am thinking I should start a few weeks earlier next season because if the Lemonades smoke as good as they look and smell i'll be growing them next season for sure. Fingers crossed.

She's getting bigger, the colas are beautiful, but the lower buds are small. Are they going to grow more? How many more weeks to come? Honestly, I'm afraid the yield is going to be small. The way I consume cannabis, 50 grams aren't enough for a month...

Excited see this strain develop their bud structures now.
They are definitely a lot hungrier this week and seem to showing a ton more trichomes.
More defoliation and lst to help spread airflow and light.
Still no major issues.

Another fantastic week!
The girls grew nicely during the stretching phase filling out most of the space, but have now started to calm down. It has been 14 days since switching to a 12/12 light cycle.
We lowered the light and are running it at 100% power.
The girls are being fed five times a day through a drip feed system @1500EC.
No problems so far. Happy daze 😁

It's been a great week for the seedlings! They've really taken off and are looking strong. I'm planning to transplant them into larger pots in the next few days, so next week's photos should show some impressive growth. I'm so excited to see how they thrive in their new homes! I've been giving them distilled water from the start, and I'm still doing that, but I just started adding 10 milliliters of Fox Farm Big Bloom and 1 milliliter of Fox Farm Grow Big. All of the seedlings are doing really well, and there's not really any visible difference between all the ten strains. I started all ten packs of each strain and kept all the best seedlings, so that's why they're all doing so well.

Harvest update on flowering day 75
since the time change to 12/12 hrs.
Hey everyone ☺️👍.
Today there is a short update of the harvest before the last update after the fermentation comes 😀👍.
Both phenotypes were very easy to cut due to their very good bud to leaf ratio ☺️.
I already like both phenotypes in terms of smell, although I have to say that Phenotype 1 smells much better and fruity 😍.
Was trimmed clean by hand with disinfected scissors :-).
Before harvest, both plants were given complete darkness for 48 hours.
The trichomes are 70% milky and 30% amber 😍.
You can now dry for 7-12 days on the net at 62% humidity.
Then it goes for another 12-17 weeks in the glasses with 62% boveda packs which are then changed to 58% boveda packs :-).
Until then and for the final harvest update, I wish you all a lot of fun.
Stay healthy and let it grow 👍🍀

Got the Spider Farmer wicking system set up with a reservoir. Up until now I’ve been using purchased pure water since it came with a better starting pH than my tap. After running the numbers, the cost of hauling jugs didn’t make sense long term. I ended up grabbing an RV water inline filter for the garden hose, which strips out most of the chlorine and other contaminants I was worried about.
Goal was mostly a stable water source because the girls are getting thirsty; I still prefer hand-watering to wet and activate the top dress. Access is only from one side of the 5×5, so as they bulk up I’m learning the back two are a chore to reach. The wicking pads help keep things even between rounds, but I’m still going in by hand to finish the job.
Did a defoliation pass; airflow and light paths improved, but I may need to push it a bit further because I don’t want a lot of larf. Crazy how much plant material I pulled off but they seem fine. Light feels like the current yield limiter. The SF4000 is solid but a touch undersized for full 5×5 penetration, the lower canopy isn’t getting what I want. I’m eyeing a higher-wattage bar style light for better edge uniformity and deeper PAR at canopy.
I’ve been testing edge light saturation with the SpiderF PPFD sensor at canopy height. Center readings are strong but the corners and long edges are clearly lacking. Smaller tent or smaller plants another option maybe. Im at 100% on my light and will be for the rest of the grow just raising it to keep distance.
Plants look happy overall. The Durban Cookies is standing out, taller and more vigorous than the 10th Planets especially for being a week younger than the rest. I am guessing it will be harvested first just by stretch speed alone. The 10th Planets R1s all have a pretty even canopy going but showing stretch. Wicking system + hand-water combo is keeping the media right where I want it, and the top dress from last week is kicking in.
Reminding everyone this is my first grow. Hoping for a pound dry, but I won’t be greedy. Keeping my expectations realistic! Thanks for following along.

I was away for the entire week. I have no watering systems so I just saturated before I left. The plant had just dried up when I was back, but showing light nutrient deficiecies.

The plant was easy to grow overall .. it grew fast and a little on the tall side which had me nervous but I was able to raise the lights up just enough to finish, so it all worked out in the end. buds came out hard and frosty no complaints . This was a freebie seed too! didn’t expect it to come out as fire as it did man was i wrong. Straight fire 🔥
Ran into root rot in the beginning of veg but the great white and hydroguard saved my ass.🙏

Day 57:
5 days of running RO water, and the ladies starts to show some minor Calcium deficiency, and Phosphorus Excess. at least this is what I think it is. About the Phosphorus Excess goes also very well with BIG plants advice against running Stimulus and Bud explosion at the same time. I have been done this for 2 weeks. (they actually have one week of this in early flowering in the feeding schedule, but generally advise against it) So I will take Bud Exp. out in the next mix. For the Calcium deficiency I will ad some more B, as I already are on the low side of the recommendation.
The mix with RO water is a little tricky. before I've added only half the dosage, but now it seems like I need to ad accordingly to schedule, to make up an EC of 1.2 I am still adding 2x1 L for every lady a day
Day 59:
All ladies received another LST training.
I have received the Mars Hydro TS 3000W and set it up.
Day 63, the Fat banana, is killing it, it is a beast, OMG it is so bushy and around 65 cm high now, but the flower is still small. the biggest one has some dark color on the leafs expanding from the flower. The main stem is so thick. around 3 cm. I took all ladies out today and I notice that the FB was almost dry. perhaps it is not getting enough water. I will increase the fertigation to 3 times a day for the FB
Day 63 the Stress killers are also looking amazing and just smell good, very citrus
Trimmed out all the lover and small flowers, I don't think they will develop.

🌱 Day 36 - Start of Second Week Flowering 🌱
Hello growing friends! 🌿 Today marks the beginning of the second week of the flowering phase, and I’m very happy with how the buds are developing so far. 🌸✨
Since this is my first grow, I’m truly amazed by how fascinating these plants are. It’s an exciting journey! 🌱🤩😎
Last week, I struggled with yellow leaves and a calcium & magnesium deficiency. Fortunately, with the help of BioBizz Calmag, things are slowly improving. 🍃💪
Currently, I’ve set the humidity to 45%—according to my research, this is ideal for minimizing the risk of mold. 💧🚫🌿
🌱 Day 42 - Last Day of the Second Flowering Week 🌱
Hello everyone! 🌿 Today marks the last day of the second week of flowering, and I’ve made some updates to my routine. I’ve increased the nutrients to BioBizz Grow (3ml), BioBizz Bloom (2ml), and BioBizz TopMax (1.5ml). The plants are growing well and have recovered from the calcium deficiency. 🍃💪 I’m continuing to add a bit of BioBizz CalMag to prevent any future deficiencies. 🌱✨
This week, I also added some soil to the pots, as the soil level had flattened out quite a bit. I topped up each pot with about 1.5 liters of soil.
