Day 77. Girl is down, she needed few more weeks, but I guess proved that in any conditions weed can be grown ;) No food, just 1.5-2 grams max of Ecothrive Biosys was used, rest only water. Root system small, but stayed healthy. Happy Growing !!!

27 days into flowering now. These girls are still stretching, hopefully there done now! I was playing with my light rail mover a bit and experimenting with timings and I think this contributed to it. They definitely got away a bit on me. Lol No biggy, just had to weave a couple more branches through the top screen, canopy is not quite as even as I would have liked, but should still be a good harvest. My HPS light penetrates down to the second screen fairly well in most places I think though. I seem to have 2 phenotypes, 3 are stretching up and skinnier leaves, but 1 is staying lower and has big fat leaves. Dropped my nutrients a bit last week and they seem to responding better. Buds are developing nicely and are ramping up daily. Still running my light at 750w, debating on turning my light up to the full 1000w to get more light out to the side buds but I’m already exceeding 75000 lux on the canopy directly under the light. Not sure how this works with my movers, but I think I’m still gonna play it safe for this next week. Happy growing everyone! Cheers💨

Week 3 Flower: I started with 10ml/500ml of BioTabs Bud Booster once a week. I put another Trellis on top and continued to bend the stems. Some Buds starting to form :). It doesnt smell yet, only if u touch it. Then its quite sticky and stinky (in a good way). Still stretching a bit, but it didnt stretch as much as i thought it would (and as people told me). Week 3 Day 4: Very moist weather outside, the tent is in the sleeping room, average humidity inside the tent is 58% atm. A bit too high. Outside tent ~70% - way too high, hope its getting dryer soon. Week 3 Day 5: Conditions normalizing. average humidity now around 45%. Week 3 Day 6: Im wondering how low I should start cutting the smaller, lower Popcornbuds, any ideas? - Removed some Popcorn buds/leaves from the lower parts of the plant.

Hello World, 🇬🇷 the previous week was pretty good regarding growth on all plants...the weather had been a bit strange but this did not affect my girls...Michelle is in the fourth week of flowering but this diary will be following the outdoor girls, who have reached 1 m in height...they are like beasts on the balcony...have a nice week...☠️ ====================================== WEEK 10:"BLACK PLANET" ☠️Day 65...💧it's too windy,I already lost another plant,an Amnesia Auto who got crashed by another pot because of the wind...my girls are doing fine,I watered them today with 3 L of pure water ph 6,3...Michelle has sone weird signs one one lower leaf,it's like cal deficiency...but it's only one leaf so I will pass it by... ☠️Day 66...Michelle has more destroyed leaves...I don't know what it is...I will add some bio bloom and see...looks more like cal issue...the other two girls are doing super...the wind has slowed down so they are sunbathing,taking it cool... ☠️Day 67...💧watering day...the temps have risen to 35°C...the girls are thirsty and hot...I removed some of Michelle's damaged leaves...I will wait and see if this spreads...it might be because of the small closet she spends her dark hours...no air circulation and too warm... ☠️Day 68...Michelle is very sick...the rust on her leaves have spreaded to almost all the plant...I think it's cal defeciency combined with high temps,37°C today...the other two girls have no problem so I am wondering what I can do with the sick girl...Can I give her cal mag or is it against the rules????? ☠️Day 70.. Michelle is dead,...she is like fried, rusty and ......dead......The damage has been done in a few days only..probably couldn't stand the heat wave and was lacking calcium...anyway,we go on we the other two girls...they seem fine...we will see... Thanx for watching,see u next week...☠️

9/9 (Day 84)- Things are wrapping up I believe! Have continued to mainly just monitor and keeping the res topped with just the full tilt. Monday we be going RO water ph to 5.8 until finish. The leaves are starting to change to a yellow and the front and dive have been packing on! Looking forward to the finish and have ordered a rosin press so excited for it all and ready and looking forward to improving and learning from my mistakes this run. 9/11 (Day 86)- Did my final flush this morning and now just running RO water to flush. Just hoping I am not flushing too early. Everything is looking good. Dry tent is set up and ready to roll. I am able to get my area down to around 64. I am actually moving my set up after these girls finish to the room with my dry tent and have a better work area! I’m excited for the next run already! As always any tips or recommendations always appreciated!

Growing was quiet hard as it just wouldnt respond will with training technique such as super cropping she hardly stretched when switched to flower and grew slow during veg but can not say till I do another run and do things different and as it was my.first time also growing from clones

It’s time for the flush to begin. This lady has been a pleasure to grow. Although I ran into a few bumps but it happens. Not much I can do about it. It’s life. Thanks for stopping by. 🙏🏼🙌🏽

The time is finally here to post the harvest. I waited till it was all done and dry before updating the dairy so will add in the dry weights next on the 2nd half of the harvest entry. Had some ups and downs with this plant. mainly the extreme yellowing that was happening. I should have treated this faster with a flush but was super reluctant and I feel this has suffered in the end. The top best looking buds could have been larger and the lower ones could have been thicker. There is some smells with this plant but they are not pronounced. Just smells like mild basic weed, this would be one reason not to grow it, however, the crystals on this plant have been the most I've ever grown before. When trimming them every time the scissors snipped or the brush stroked I saw some falling down onto the tray. This plant would be great for making hash. had a good little ball of finger hash at the end of it and will be giving that to my friends to smoke or make a strong edible with. I don't plan on growing this strain out again, the lack of smells and the fact I'm only trying to grow cbd dominate plants is the main reason. If my friends really like this I have some clones so can always give them some. Speaking of clones they are doing well outside, greened up a lot and showing signs of revegging. Took some photos of the weed hang drying on day 1 in the tent and a week later to show how much they shrink. most of the lower growth is quite larfy but will make good edibles or hash, that will be a fun project to do and may include that in my projects diary. That's about all I can think of if you have any questions just ask. m0use Disclaimers: 1. I have divided the total watts of light in half, 300w(150w) for this diary. It will accurately reflect the g/w ratio as the two plants growing in this tent are listed in two separate diaries. 2. I include any shake/trim in my gross totals as I use them to make edibles. 3. I did not follow any proper ways of listing my nutrients. Some are ml/l of total solution watered, others ml/l of total medium and some are just the total amounts I added, not as a ratio.

I converted the cents into dollar amounts beforehand to avoid dividing by 100. 8.2c/h = 0.082$/h 438h * 0.17c/kwh = $74.46kw * 0.15kw = $11.17 on peak 522h * 0.113c/kwh = $58.99kw *0.15kw = $8.85 mid peak 1,272h * 0.082c/kwh = $104.30kw *0.15kw = $15.65 off peak The "h" hours and "kw" kilowatts cancel out and we are left with a value of $ dollars per peak period, add all the peak periods up and you get your total cost of running the lights in dollars. $11.17 + $8.85 + $15.65 = $35.67 for the grow light only. My light grew for 20 weeks and 4 days, or 144 days. almost 21 weeks total. $35.67 / 144d = 0.2477$/d average of about 25c a day in electricity 337.2kw for the entire grow. Using the regular calculation of grams harvested divided by watts used is not accurate to me, it does not account for all the time the lamps are on, the length of grow to the over all cost. The calculation that makes sense to me is this, harvested dry weight of usable cannabis buds/trim/keif/whatever in grams divided by total kw used. Could also combine it with grams per total single use costs “anything you used only for this grow and wont reuse in the next, or fractions of multi use items like fertilizers if they ½ full” and see how much you’re investing per gram. "kw" ÷ "g" = kw/g "$" ÷ "g" = $/g I have harvested 5.34oz or 151.6g on 337.2kw. 337.2kw ÷151.6g = 2.22 kw/g of usable cannabis. This is not an ideal ratio for me and looks like a lot of energy waste happened from the extended veg period. $35.67 ÷ 151.6g = 0.24c/g It cost 24c/g when comparing total electricity cost to gross yield, almost identical to the comparison of total electrical cost to the number of days in the grow 25c/day. Neat! legend, kwh = kilowatt per hour kw = kilowatt w = watt h = hour c = cents $ = dollars d = day LED= Light Emitting Diode

Sorry about the last 2 weeks guys had some issues and couldn't upload. So I flipped the lady's to flower on Sunday 6th December, added a Scrog and pushed it down so over the next few weeks while the plant stretches more and more heads should appear. Had some issues with thrips 2 weeks ago but have resolved that issue with a pesticide. For a sativa dominant strain the plants are very bushy with close nodes. Probably should add a lot of info to this week but I don't know where to start so if anyone has any questions please ask away! Nutrients are based on 15L of water currently 💚

Week 7 of flowering Buds are swelling and not much production anymore. Seeds are also developing and I think that the tops don't have that much seeds in them and most are in the larf. I moved one Cree led from top to bottom last week and now I moved it to closer to these girls to promote the production of the lower buds/popcorn. pH has been stable 6.4 no matter what but ec is drifting and I diluted it this week from 3.6->2.8 and now the ec is 2.6 Trichomes are maybe 70% clear and 30%cloudy so I'd say that two weeks and they are ready!

Week 5 The soil started to stabilize, the plants are less stressed and the production is satisfactory. Apparently the worst is over, I have watered every 2 days on average. These strains are for approximately 9 weeks of flowering, soon HARVEST. In the half of week 5, it was add 205W of Citizen and Epstar COBs. TOTAL 565W.

Harvest was done on a lovely summer day. Since summer was approaching, half of the harvest was hung upside down with the classic 60/60 and rest is stored in a wine cooler for drying. There’s also an oscillating fan below for airflow!

Hi Growmies, So far she is doing what she is supposed to. She popped her head out within two days and since then she has been growing nicely. I have switched on a little fan to make sure she gets sturdy enough. I have also transplanted her into her final net pot and nested her in a bed of Speedgrow green mini cubes and soaked her for 15 min in a 500 ppm ph balanced RO water. I would love to upload some videos, however this seems to be getting increasingly challenging on this website. Here is the code that’ll give you 20% in Zamnesia‘s online store, just input ZAMMIGD2023 at checkout.
