Grow Diaries Report: Flower Week 1 – Stretch Madness & Heavy Grooming 🌿🚀 Week 9 – Flower Week 1 Update The flowering phase has officially kicked off, and wow, this plant is on a mission to touch the sky! The stretch this week has been intense, with the plant shooting up significantly. To manage her vigor and focus her energy on bud production, I’ve had to step in with defoliation and additional lollipopping. This Week’s Highlights Massive Stretch: The plant stretched dramatically this week, filling up the vertical space in the tent. Defoliation: I removed a significant amount of fan leaves to improve light penetration to the lower branches. Lollipopping Redux: Further cleaned up the lower parts of the plant, focusing her resources on the top colas. What I Did Lollipopping: Removed more of the lower branches and leaves that were unlikely to contribute to bud production. Defoliation: Took off some large fan leaves to improve airflow and light exposure throughout the canopy. Nutrients: Continued with the bloom feeding schedule, ensuring a balance of phosphorus and potassium for flower development. Environment Management: Adjusted the light height to prevent light burn and tweaked the fan placement to improve airflow in the now more open canopy. Observations The plant’s stretch has been both impressive and challenging, but the defoliation and lollipopping seem to be working. The top canopy looks well-lit and primed for flower development. No signs of stress from the grooming, which is always a relief during such an aggressive stretch. Challenges The rapid vertical growth is pushing the limits of the grow tent. I’ll need to monitor her closely to prevent overcrowding or light burn. Next Steps Keep monitoring the stretch over the next week—potential supercropping if necessary to control height. Fine-tune the nutrient schedule to ensure the plant has everything it needs as bud sites develop. Maintain low humidity to reduce the risk of mold or mildew during early flowering. Conclusion The first week of flowering has been an explosive start! The stretch is real, but with proper management, she’s looking set to develop some fantastic buds in the weeks ahead. 🌟 Any tips for managing a stretch-happy plant in a tight grow tent? Drop your advice below! 😊

Hi everyone, Weed brothers Welcome to another week dedicated to the cultivation of our beloved and very esteemed plant! There was so hot this week in this tent! This bush is becoming very tempting !!! ; ) Happy and abundant harvesters for everyone

Lots of bud sites

GENERAL COMMENT. WEEK 5 OF FLOWER. Ok guys, this week ran ok for one girl and less for her sister, so i will go on details individually. RQS STRESS KILLER AUTOMATIC COMMENT. Beautiful girl getting bigger everyday, i’m very satisfied overall, she is fast and have lots of terpenes, and started heavy resin production. Super strong, absolutely no issue at all for now. I’m imagining to start flushing this week or the next will decide this days to come, but this grow will be max 12 weeks. Not reading the runoff on this girl as everything is just amazing. Maybe will backbuild some colas to compare. EC at 2.2, released a lot of N now, but still did a good feeding, it might be the last, or max one more before the flush. Will be flushing with flawless finish in the last week.

Flushed it already. Leaves aren't fading that much but the trichomes are developing to the right state very soon. So 🤩🤩🤩 my first harvest is coming soon. I would like to thank everyone so far for the massive help and encouragement the community gave through out my journey. Hopefully my next post is harvest 🤞 🌴🌴

The girls got their mid flower feeding gave each box about a half cup of Gia green bloom and a few tablespoons of terp, tea bloom, as well as 3 cups of build a flower top dress watered in with recharge and a little bit of Neptunes harvest. The girls are starting to throw some sense getting some fruity terps could just be the runts layer cake I have in the back she’s so strong but the girls are growing. I’m gonna do a tea tomorrow and then sit back and watch these girls stack.

Starting to get close to the end the tall buds are packing on the weight very large plant very frosty will have a great yield from this plant

Decided to give them a break from nutrients this week and gave them a good watering without any nutrients to clear out the soil, will start feeding again with next feed. The girls are growing well. I keep thinking the Candy Kush plant 2 is going to be ready in a week then deciding to leave her for another couple of weeks. I'm hoping she'll be ready this coming Monday, she'll be 78 days and I'm running out. The other girls look like then need another 3 weeks at least. The buds are getting fatter every day :D These last few weeks test my patience so much.

Harvested at day 116, had some problems of high inflow pH at week 11 that has a little decreased the final harvest, in my opinion. But I'm proud of my job cause that was the ONLY little problem in the entire grow. Keep Growing and learning everyday 🙏🏻💚🤞🏼🕉️

Week 3: 2 are thriving 10" and 7", 1 slightly smaller 3", 1 quite small but healthy green and 1 sickly. light is now at full so I will wait while they grow into the light but may lower it depending on how they take the light. I will slowly bring it to 3'. Started the calmag and increasing nutes.

I switched the girls aside. wedding crasher on the right and el patron on the left. The two in front are the autos 😏

week 9 day 58, the buds getting bigger, nice colors 😍🌈 day 61, she's look great and healthy! the trichome started to become milky.. still no amber trichomes are showing..

Perfect for make extracts, bubble hash or edibles
