2/6/2023 - Day 35: After the watering yesterday the girls perked up, but they were already getting dry again. I was originally planning on waiting longer to transplant, but I felt like they were out growing their 1 gallon pots. Also, after checking their roots I could tell they were ready, so I transplanted today. Watered in with about 1.5 gallons at 6.4 ph. I know they say you don't need to ph water in a large bed like this, but my water is really bad here. At times it can be over 8 ph out of the tap. Mixed my water with Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja, Rootwise Micro Complete, Rootwise Bio-Catalyst, fresh aloa juice from my garden, and BuildASoil Big 6 Micro nutrients. 2/10/2023 - Day 39 Veg: now that the plants are in the 3x3 bed, there is much less maintenance. I'm using an Ecowitt to track the soul moister. It started at 33% when I watered on Monday, and is at 33% today. I want to let it drop below 30% before watering again. I did do my weekly IPM spray today, using Dr. Zymes Eliminator. Also, I noticed some slight leaf discoloration, so I added some Pure Protein Dry and BuildASoil Big 6 micronutrients to the foliar spray, which I sprayed at lights out. A had a small amout of the mix left after all plants were sprayed, so i used it to slightly mist the top soil. Not sure I'd the discoloration is the start of a deficiency or just left over from the under watering last week. Figured the foliar feeding wouldn't hurt either way. 2/12/2022 - Day 41: Soil moisture dropped to 30% today, so I watered with a worm casting tea. Added some Rootwise Micro Complete, Rootwise Bio-Catalyst, and Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja. Watered about 8 liters and gave the plants a foliar feed with the tea as well. All of the plants look pretty good. The Grand Prix 2 has some leaf curl and I'm not sure what is causing it, since the other 3 aren't showing similar symptoms. Thought it might be light or heat stress, since it is the tallest plant, so I raised the light and dropped the high temp down a few degrees. Also, the Frozen White Runtz is the smallest of all 4 and seems to be growing slow. We'll have to see how they all respond to the tea.

Whats up? sorry for no post last week, I had dengue. feeling much better now but plants sure suffered a bit trought the week, ran out from nutrients and did not have the strength to care for them. Gladly, I had some assistance with my own health issues, so the little energy i had i spent on training the girls and watering them, as you can see there was a deficiency that led to some bleaching and discoloration of new growth and old, water levels started to change and it stabilized in 145 PPM and 6.1 pH. I was worried about not giving them anything to eat, but when i spoke to Howweedgrow about it, he recommended me to only water them without nutes, although i think he did not read my message properly as he answered with a "its better to water them than not at all", when my original question was in regards of making some food without FloraMicro (the ONE nutrient i ran out of), luckily i was able to get some and in 5 days time it arrived. Firls looked like this for the week Lvls in bucket where as follows: EC 283 uS/cm TDS: 141 ppm pH 6.02 Temps 23.3 C 73.9 F

They took a long time to grow and mature 10 months in all. They produced amazing flowers with a genuine high. Left a lot to be desired in flavour profile however not awful to smoke. Would grow again for sure as they were a high yielding, ‘set and forget’ type of strain easy and resilient enough to grow and highly impressive to see grown outdoor.

Ciao growers ... I didn't think I would have come to continue this diary, because, as you can see in the picture, there were some problems that made me change my ideas ... After spraying the two plants (plus one in the diary "Cookies On The Kush" ) with a 3: 1 mix of neem oil + potassium soap, causes thrips ... these parasites have been defeated yes, but at a high price ... they must have reacted badly to the compound, triggering a phytotoxic reaction ... .I'm not a scientist or a biologist or anything like that, but reading online I think this was the cause ... because the leaves would seem to be eaten by caterpillars or the like, but this is not the case ... On girls I had also just done a Topping on one and a FIM on the other, before finding myself forced to spray them 😌...so, a lot of stress.... Well in the end, after they looked like they were dying, they recovered in growth, and now I have done a transplant in a geotextile pot from 20 l, consisting of about 50% Lightmix-3 0% cocomix-10% humus-10% perlite.. As soon as the transplant was done I gave them about 4 ml of root juice in 4l of h2o, in total divided by the two of them ... It will be a diary "random" / artistic/i don't know 😅".... I want to" play "a little bit about the malformation that they have suffered ... now I'm doing some tying so a bit for fun ... we'll see what comes out of it ... for sure they will be very particular .. ... to the next update ... thanks that you read, and I hope you like it 😉... Bye Guy's 😄✌️

Super cropping is a high-stress training technique that involves pinching and bending branches to damage the inner fibers while leaving the outer lining intact. ... On a secondary level, super cropping is a way to manipulate how your plants grow ▶️ Monday - 03.08.21- Checked in on these ladies this morning, fed each plant with 40 ounces w/ nutrients, they were looking a little wilted, I also lowered the plants down (removed milk crates from under the drain tray) about 40 inches now from the lights, plenty of room to develop their legs. Will post some pictures later this evening. UPDATE - these ladies are already bouncing back! They are thriving! ▶️ Tuesday - 03.09.21- So after Sunday's session with HST/Super Croping these girls are bouncing back and looking great! They are creating amazing bushes and will be choosing one for mother plants, and transplanting the other 4 outside. ▶️ Wednesday - 03.10.21-these ladies are looking so nice but different, I am learning words likening the thicker ones versa the single Sativa looking 1!

I’m just happy I’m this far along with these two! Well I’m shocked that one of them is still trying to stretch so late into the grow. Otherwise I’m excited for flowers.

Day 92: what’s happening guys! Week 14 is here. Temps have been okay and humidity has been okay. I’ve got the 400w hps set up and it’s dropped temps slightly and slightly raised humidity which is what I wanted. In my opinion she’s looking ready for the chop! I’m seeing plenty of cloudy trichomes and a few ambers and I’m going for less of a couch lock so I’m thinking around now she is ready. I started plain water 6 days ago and she’s recieved 2L,1L and then 1L again today. All leaves have started yellowing, I imagine this is the plant pulling the nitrogen from the leaves as there’s none at the roots. How much longer does she need to be fed plain water for before she is ready for the chop? Thanks! Stay safe and happy growing✌️🌱🍁 End of the day edit: I decided to harvest the majority of her. The bottoms just a bit under developed so I’ll leave it going a bit longer. After chopping and taking photos out of the hps light the nugs are looking a tinge purple although I can’t see it as strong with my eyes. Hopefully I’ll get a wet weight later so I can add it to the diary later on. Temp is around 24c and humidity is 45-55. How does that sound? I’ve got extractor at the top and a fan at the bottom. We’ll see how long it takes to dry, hoping to go for atleast 5 days. With the virus going around I’m really making use of what I have at home so hopefully the climate will hold up🤞 any tips and advice about drying and curing etc is hugely appreciated🙏 I’ll be back with the harvest update once she’s dried out✌️many thanks happy growing!🍁🌱 She weighed in wet at 110 grams. Any ideas what she’ll weigh dry? I’m guessing an ounce if I’m lucky.

Day 43 14/06/24 Friday So today was the day for cloning 🤩 I've kept it basic, taken 4 sides as clones. I've started their own diary now 👇💚 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/214698-divine-seeds-black-opium-grow-journal-by-pifflestikkz I haven't exactly mainlined as I have far to much going on ATM. But, I have taken the principle, kept my mains, stripped back and topped all. Resulted back to tie down LST. Hoping she recovers quickly so we can flip on the 8 week mark🙌 Day 44 15/06/24 Saturday Feed today 6.4 Day 47 18/06/24 Water today pH 6.4 Fully recovered from her massacre 💚 Since cloning and topping, she has started re development again 💪 Pushing herself out and up again 🙌 Day49 20/06/21 Thursday Feed today pH 6.25 Did it outside, Picture update 🤩

🌱 Terminando la semana 4 y las plantas se ven vigorosas 💪 Después del trasplante, las niñas se han mostrado bastante fuertes y adaptándose muy bien al cambio. Se nota que el trabajo previo dio resultado. Detecté una pequeña carencia de nitrógeno, así que en el próximo riego voy a incorporar unos mililitros extra de Bio Grow para corregirlo. Por ahora, todo marcha excelente y las plantas están respondiendo de maravilla. 🌿 Dato útil: Unos días antes del trasplante (semana 3), a las macetas de 11 litros les apliqué al menos 1 litro de agua con una dosis mínima de Root Juice. Esto fue para preparar y humedecer el sustrato, lo que facilitó mucho el trasplante y evitó la necesidad de regar en exceso esta semana. ¡Seguimos dándole con cariño y atención al cultivo! 🌞🌱

So this final week the buds on this Orange Hill Special are filling out. They are getting rock solid and the calyxes are doing their final swelling. Also, the trichomes have started forming and up close, they are forming a white sticky film over the whole bud. The buds feel heavy and compact, although their size could have been bigger but not complaining with this amount of bud. I have just been feeding some perma tea and clean water since this soil is probably very high in nutes by now. I had some brown leaf points so just adjusted and all was fine. Now we go into the final one or two weeks. I did some final defoliation to expose some underside buds, they are swelling too. Removed some sticky underside larf, kept it in a box to gradually dry for a preliminary taste test coming days. Sunshine and me wish you a very merry Christmas (check our Christmas video) and hope we have more freedom next year instead of less and wish you all bountiful harvests! Special thanks and well wishes to @MarsHydroLED, you gave us an excellent gift that keeps on giving, thank you!!

I first started with a single 26W light for the seedlings but this wasn't enough so the seedlings started to stretch. Thankfully, i could borrow 2 x 39W Sunblaster T5HO lights from a friend. Once i got room in the tent, the seedlings could move over there so they can enjoy the Mars Hydro TS-600 light. 😊 I also started this grow with a new bug-scan card. I wanted to keep track if this Cellmax soil has gnats but i already can see this soil is free of gnats. (In the past, i had other brands of soil that were infested.) For now, i'm only adding rootbooster to the water. Next grow i will also use rootbooster when i prepare my soil for the seeds but for this time i forgot. The seedlings are growing good, looks like there is 1 smaller one. Also there is 1 bigger one, this one really wants to grow because she's also leaving more internodal space compared to the others.
