What's up Growmies 🤟🏽. Today marks the start of week 7 overall and week 2 flowering (week 1 flowering for Caramelicious). I love indoor growing during the winter because the humidity is easy to maintain at optimal levels. My babies are thriving and all are very healthy, I am keeping an eye on Caramelicious making sure she doesn't Hermie on me and pollinate my entire tent ( it happened before). I switched to a 12 light schedule about 10 days ago and she is just now starting to preflower. I am feeding them just 1 liter of water every 3 days and they seem to do well with that schedule. Every 3rd watering I feed them plain water and give them about 1-1/2 liters (or until I see run off) I notice how the first 2 to 3 hours after watering the leaves all droop and kind of claw, I believe it's due to the plant being saturated with water and sucking up the water so it can breath o2 again. I am giving them all the "bloom and riping" mix of General Hydroponics which calls for 1/2/3 mil/gallon mixture. I mix the recommended dosage into a 3 gallon sprayer so like always they are getting 1/3 of the manufacturer's recommended dosage. I have never lollipopped any of my grows, hell I don't even defoliate, I use the tuck method and remove fan leaves as the plant matures and sucks the nutrients out of them. However just for experience and experimentation I am going to defoliate the bottom 3rd set of leaves, and get rid of some of the lower bud sites of one of my white LSD plants. Since I have 2 growing I figured I really have nothing to loose. All in all everything is going very well🤞🏽it is getting so crowded that it is difficult to take the type of pictures I want, however that is a good thing in my eyes. That is all for this week, nothing really new or exciting going on, just business as usual. I hope everyone is having a stress free grow this week, and like always, may the plant goddesses bless you all with a bountiful harvest 💪🏾

Hice un riego con aceite de neem y jabón potasico debido a unas pocas moscas de sustrato que estaban rondando las plantas, espero haber matado los huevos que hayan puesto, si veo más lo repetiré la otra semana.

DAY 49: seeing harvests from other grows of these strains, I wonder why am still going strong on the bud building ?. They are more than happy to carry on further at this point it seems with only a small covering of browning pistils on the FFT#1 showing out. She isn't the fattest buddies yet but hopefully this week will finish her off nicely. FFT#5 is very nice looking now and has so.e.beautiful sized colas across her wide span. She is very hemmed in by the others around her but has easily managed to push some serious buds to the canopy top to create so e rock solid, sweet smelling buds. She is feeding g a hell of a pot on the water now with approx 10L per 2 days. Hungry girl. FFT#7 Is still the biggest sister here and now with very nice packed out colas at every point I look. I will be very surprised if she isn't the highest yield of the whole run. It is a great strain to work with and watch grow. The smell off her as with the others is a fruity hit and rushes out of the tent when i open up. I think another week at least to find her sweet spot for harvest.

Was definitely a good grow. Results not so impressive but my LED stuff wasn't so good. Hurry the get new one to blow this tent again. Aromas were so strong ! My carbon filter wasn't enought to keep all these odors in tent 😂 Grew in Plagron Light Mix, with Terra Grow, Terra Bloom and Green Sensation. Really good products to me, really effective. Hope to see you soon guys, have nice grows 🙏

Sorry for the delay, but I had to deal with several unexpected issues. The main one was realizing that most of the trichomes on these plants had already turned amber.I was convinced they were still at an earlier stage because, in my previous run with the same Critical Orange Punch from the same seed batch, they matured later. This time, however, they seemed to finish much faster, and in my opinion the stress they experienced may have played a role.Because of that, I had to act quickly and harvest the plants without carrying out the usual flush. After looking into it more carefully, I found that flushing in this case does not seem to offer any real benefit, at least according to the scientific information I came across. From what I found, flushing does not seem to make a significant difference in the final outcome in terms of taste, smoothness, or overall quality. Drying and curing probably play a much bigger role, but I would really like to hear your opinion and experience on this as well.Another thing I noticed during the last week was a clear change in the aroma inside the tent. The smell became sweeter, deeper, and far more intense.I cannot say for sure whether that was directly linked to trichome maturity, but overall I am satisfied with the result so far, especially considering the setbacks along the way. As you can see from the photos, it was a very demanding week, and trimming all the plants in just a couple of days was a real challenge.That said, the buds look absolutely beautiful and very promising. Now it is just a matter of waiting another week or two before I can give you a proper update on the smoke quality.Happy growing, everyone.

Sono un po’ in ritardo ma posso già commentare questi boccioli di Gorilla Cookies FF perché sono già stati trimmati e puliti per essere curati in barattoli di vetro. Non ho avuto particolari problemi nel crescere queste ragazze, l’unica cosa che purtroppo non ho potuto mantenere sotto controllo era la temperatura che nelle ultime settimane era arrivata quasi a 30ºC :-/ e questo non è stato di aiuto alle piante a cui ovviamente non piace stare sotto queste temperature di continuo…nonostante questo e alla poca compattezza dei fiori sono super contento del gusto e dell’odore che ricordano tanto i terpeni della Calypso Sun Rock di Anesia Seeds, sarà che ho trovato un fenotipo che condivideva gli stessi geni con cui sono imparentate entrambe! Inoltre è stata la prima volta che ho avuto il piacere di utilizzare il super soil di Dogma Organics che sicuramente ha esaltato al massimo le particolarità della pianta e confermo che la differenza si sente, le piante crescono a meraviglia con struttura solida e zero carenze di nessun tipo se si usa con giuste quantità e tempi sia il top dress che le giuste quantità di acqua che dovrebbe sempre essere la cosa più importante dove bisogna imparare a capire i bisogni in base allo stadio di crescita…in più ho condiviso alcune foto del mio giardino di quest’anno :)) Fast Buds super consigliato genetiche ottime e selezioni veramente interessanti

Hi growmies it's been a minute! Anyway unfortunately I'm having to move the plants to a different secure location as there too big and my sister has had a baby so can't keep them at my ma's anymore, on top of that I can't keep them at mine as I'm on the edge of town centre but I'll keep updating on them also last 2 pics are the lemon meringue auto from Tastebuds Genetics really nice smoke smells and tastes exactly as named rather mellow hight though could have done them better, ended up with just over an Oz and half! Anyway hope everyone stays happy, healthy and as high as humanly possible! 💚👊🇬🇧

09/16: Fed 30/70 blend of Veg to Bloom to all the photos. Noticed PM on True OG. Didn't notice yet but my OBW (and some other autos) also had a bad PM infection. Light defoliation and trimming 09/21: More PM found. Again light defoliation and trimming. Aphids also found on some of the autos.

7/5 Plants look great after the last few days of rain. Nothing broken despite the storm. I think more rain is in the forecast but at some point I'll need to spray. I'll update later today. Went back over at 4pm to check. Soil was still damp with 40% chance of rain so I held off watering. First day I've never watered. Noticed a few more leaves turning yellow and falling off on the middle and bottom interior of some plants. It looks like nitrogen deficiency. Can't notice unless you get right in there. Noticed leaf hoppers and other minor pest damage. Spraying soon. 7/6 Hose wasn't working as the water needed to be shut off. Soil still seemed damp so everything should be fine. Temps are MUCH lower (66 right now). Still have internal lower/middle leaves turning yellow. Noticed that I hadn't fed in five days. That could have something to do with it. Really looks like nitrogen deficiency. Fed two gallons to the garden this morning and will monitor. Humidity is stupid high. It read like 90 something percent but it's not raining. I plan to spray tonight. Due to other issues I haven't been on top of my game as much as I should be. Will update later. Oh and I do measure in teaspoons not tablespoons. I'm just an idiot. 7/7 Water is still off. I carried water to the plants and watered approx. a gallon a big plant. Less for smaller. Lots more yellow leaves on my blueberry's. They fall off. Looks just like nitrogen deficiency and the plants are getting huge. I also noticed I hadn't fed in 5 days. I figure most nutes in the soil must be used up. I only have a soil PH meter and the only readings I could get read 7.3 and 7.4. I checked my water PH with a test kit and to me it looks around 6.5 so I have no idea why the pH could be off. Could definitely use some help. I think I'm going to get some dry amendments like worm castings or guano. Noticed a random beetle munching away. I keep putting off spraying but it needs to be done. I'll add my question when I get a chance. UPDATE: Went back over and noticed soil was dry. Watered again approx a gallon each. I need to figure out the issue with the yellowing leaves. I added roots organic Ancient Amber to the water for a small nitrogen boost. I'll ask a question. 7/8 I lightly watered but probably shouldn't have as it's supposed to rain tonight and all day tomorrow. Better safe than sorry. I feel much better after some research and answers to my questions. I feel more confident. I just need to get my IPM up and running again and I should be good. Still threw away dead leaves but in places the sun doesn't get and plants have grown substantially. 7/9 Rained last night and supposed to rain all day today. I took a couple pictures but I'll have to wait until the rain subsides to spray. Wow it's still really pouring @4:45pm. Tropical storm Elsa or something is dropping like 3in of rain. Oh well hopefully helps lower my pH. Feels really good to look at the profiles of the growers on Facebook that have talked down and acted narcissistic towards me after I asked a question only to see their itsy bitsy scrawny little plants. Jealousy is real I guess. I'm praying to the pot gods that everything holds up through this storm. I love my garden but I can't get cocky. Outdoors in Maine anything can happen. 7/10 No damage from last night's storm. I measured the pH of the rain water and it appeared to be around 5.0-5.5 so that should help to lower my PH. Very nice day today. Plants should explode after this rain. 7/11 Very sunny day yesterday and looks like another today. 73 degrees at 9am. Last night I got halfway to my garden to spray and had to turn around due to several stomach cramps. Its always something. I VERY LIGHTLY watered before feeding 2 gallons of feed to the garden. I've been slipping. Its been another five days since feeding. I'm going to try Dr. Zymes tonight. UPDATE: Went to my garden around 6 and sprayed Dr. Zymes at 90 degrees on all plants. I used the two two oz free samples that are supposed to make a gallon. I saved half a bottle and used the rest so it wasn't max strength. I fed today too and I'm not supposed to spray above 80 degrees and it was 77 so hopefully this works out. I've never used this product. I wish I hadn't forgot my phone as my plants looked and smelled amazing. Still pulling off yellow leaves....

Week 5 Flower - Day 30 Flowering - Day 86 of life Lemon tree is looking nice, big as the growers like. Most of her pistils are orange-brown and she is looking nearly ready for harvest. But we are still on week 5. I hope the nexts weeks will fatten her up and get as tasty as possible. I will keep watching the trichomes to see when she is going to be ready for harvest. Breeder days 9-10 weeks but the way shw is going I believe it will be a little before this. Let’s gooo

Still looks like crap but I'm letting her do her thing. I didn't have the heart to cull it, and I wanted to see how resilient this girl could be. I top dressed her and gave her some nutes. She's looking better than she did so that's encouraging. We'll see what happens in the next couple weeks until she finishes.

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Hey guys :-) The lady develops more and more beautifully into a bush 👍. She has the same extreme big leaves like the last phenotype of hers :-) I love it ;-). She will now stay in the vegi for a few more days before she comes to the flower tent :-). During the last watering, I started with Fast Plant. I am happy to finally be able to put it in bloom again. This week it was poured 3 times with 1.2 l each (sewing materials, see table above). The tent was cleaned and all plants checked for health 👍. Fresh osmosis water was prepared and filled into canisters for the next 2 weeks. Otherwise they were admired several times a day 😂. With the next update we will see each other in bloom again :-). Until then, I wish you all a good start to the week. Stay healthy and let it grow 🙏🏻

4/30 one of the plants has actually visibly stretched more in the last 48 hrs. Starting to impress me with the pistols. Still way smaller than their projections online but whatever 🤷🏽‍♂️ 5/4 end of the week and I’m pretty okay with their size now 😂 they went through a sizable stretch. I’ll have to get my measuring tape back in the tent because each time I’m adding to this diary, I question whether I’m on the right week or not because they look like dwarfs compared to the end of the week

Plain sailing this week , just water for the Sweet n Sour and the Blackberry Gum, the Cheesy auto just had one last feed of Iguana Juice and PK booster BAC . Few more days and the SNS and BG should be done.
