So, eventful week. Prior to putting my seeds into my system, my light and rdwc system was left on as I was dialling in the growing environment before placing the seeds as a final home. My only issue was I had a light leak BEFORE putting the foil top covers on the clay pebbles. Long story short, I got algae which ended up turning to root rot. I spotted it very swiftly and did a res change adding beneficial bacteria to the system along with the base products of remo nutrients. A few days later new growth and recovery is taking place. Day 16- Fully back on track, new roots shooting out into the water and the growth rate has picked up as it should. Foliar feeding twice a day for a little boost until the root system establishes a bit more. Huge changes in just a day. Can't wait to see what a week's growth looks like. Really loving the sunset/sunrise feature on the trolmaster, something I got to experience watching recently! Watching by closely to make sure everything stays in track. Stay tuned for the next one 😉

Heeey all! Sorry for the huge amount of photos but this week was crazy. So many things happened and my lack of knowledge clearly showed up. I ended stressing one of my plants for no reason! 😱 At the start of the week everything was normal until I noticed that one of Roko's buds looked weird. It seemed to be too dry and orange for my tastes and I didn't know what it was. Obviously I started to ask around and I got so many mixed messages haha. Some people said it was nothing and I should not worry about it and others said they were 100% sure it was botrytis or budrot... aaaaaaaand I got paranoid lol. 😵😨 At first I tried to keep calm and ignore it for one day but the next one the bud looked even worse and that's when I feared the worst. What if it's really budrot? In general the values I write in here are approximates or an average of the week.. and usually my tent never goes over 60% of RH (in the dark it stays between 50% to 60% when I water them and on some rare occasions it reaches 65%). This time, after I checked the thermometer it said "75% of RH" but I did not know if it was during their sleep time or maybe some time after the lights went on) so once again I feared the worst! What if the plants stayed all the night with that amount of RH? Was that enough time for them to develop budrot? What if it's still nothing? Yikes. 😭 I had to do something and I did, I wasn't going to risk everything! I started removing the worst looking leaf to see if there was anything mushy or ugly between it and the pistils but I didn't see anything (maybe I was safe and that was something else? Or maybe the budrot was even deeper and I could not see it?) After reading I realized that the best idea was to cut the bud in half and then slice it to "see" if there was anything inside... so I did it and absolutely nothing showed up 😖! Those were good news! Sadly tho the poor plant had to go thru some stress after cutting that bud in half (at least from what I saw the insides were tightly packed and the photos showed some really cool stuff) The rest of the week was uneventful (compared to what I feared haha) and some leaves started to change even more in color (I love it). I think I'll start with the flush next week or the one after that one. There are some amber trichomes...! Thanks all for checking my diary! Hopefully you'll all find the pictures interesting! PD: None of the plants have seeds in them, even when one of the sliced buds seemed to be making them!

Week 4 for Space panda by atlasseed, End of week 4 for this cultivar, really wishing i had spare soil to put these these in 5L pots but i have to order some soon. At this point id of topped them both by now but they are getting any side branch growth. Im not in a rush with these girls because they will end up getting longer than 3months veg.

Moinsen wie man sieht geht es den Damen recht gut, sie fangen an Farbe zu bekennen. am anfang der woche gab es für alle 2,5L wasser+1L wasser mit 10ml/ Pk5-8 und eine leichte entblätterung damit die Luft besser zirkulieren kann da der mittlere Bereich des ScroG Netzes ziemlich dicht aneinander steht ansonsten war nicht viel los diese Woche. Ich denke mal das die Damen noch ca 3 Wochen brauchen werden bis sie ansatzweise fertig sind. Auf den Bildern ist es zwar nicht so gut zu erkennen aber die Damen werden lila schwarz an den blättern und die Knospen bleiben giftig grün nur die Dame vorne links hat nur kleine Flecken die sich lila zeigen aber ich denke mal das wird in der nächsten woche auch noch zu legen so lange die Temperaturen mit spielen! euch noch ne schöne woche ihr growmies

8 weeks / 56 days today. Growth has slowed down a lot this week luckily. Smell is getting really hard to contain now. Sticky orange buds still nowhere near as big as purple skunk but definitely a bit fatter than last week. Purple skunk buds are getting a lot fatter. Both are really sticky to the touch, looking a bit frosty close up and can see plenty of trichomes. Little bit of leaf burn but not a lot I can do because of the space issue so just tucking the branches and leaves as best I can and moving the lights around a bit to minimise it. Watering between 1 and 1.5 litres every other day and they are soaking it all up. Increased to 3ml per litre of nutrients too. Humidity has been a lot easier to keep under control this week and hasn’t risen above 60 all week so I am happy with that. it’s been a worry for a few weeks. I had a real panic this week when I thought I saw seed sacks forming at the base of each branch. But after hours and hours of reading, I am pretty sure they’re calyxes. No intentional defoliation this week but I’ve accidentally snapped a couple of fan leaves whilst watering. I really need a bigger tent! Would love opinions on when you all think they might be ready for the chop. Comparing to other diaries I still think I’ve probably got another 6+ weeks but I’m daring to think about how/where I’m going to dry them out. I’m pretty sure purple skunk will be ready first so drying in the tent will be a no go.

⬇️⬇️⬇️Very Eventful Week⬇️⬇️⬇️ -7/26: Started new batch of nutes for this week. Mixed nutes in gallon jug of water. Poured half in half gallon jug and topped off rez a little over second line. Hopefully she is able to take everything in after what happened yesterday. She is showing good signs of hope. Had to pluck part of a leaf that shriveled up and died. That’s the only shock that I’ve seen her take as of yet. Fingers crossed. -7/27: She is still thriving! Day 2 from accident and only 1 fan leaf died off. She is starting to give off that funk! 😝 -7/28: She is still thriving! Did some more “very light” LST today. Wanted to bush her out more after her boom last night! She took off. Seems like she had a blast off moment listening to Kid Cudi with me last night!!😁😁. Fed her the remaining nutes from this weeks feeding on Monday. Filled rez back to a little over 2nd line. Roots showing peaking out bottom of bag today. I seen a couple actually! Next week will start filling reservoir to 3rd line which is 6 gallons.😈. My girl said she smelt them today when I opened the tent for my 4:20 maintenance lol

Day 63 Flowering: Hi all , well here we are, finally at the end of this amazing grow and only the trim and dry before the main event.....The results.. It has been a great grow from the start with these seeds , they have not missed a beat at all. The #4 has been innthe dark now for the past 6 days to try to really push the oils and survival instinct of the early finishing lady. She will be trimmed tonight as I don't want to push her too far and create a hermie now.. She is nice and sticky now and smells so sweet of fresh cut fruit. #1 has been ripening for the past week and even has a few new pistils showing up to add to the contrast of colours too her beautifully formed buds. They are so dense and solid to squeeze too. Her trichromes are beginning to show more amber among the cloudy and I don't want to leave her too long and ruin the intended high she naturally allows so it is time to take her out and into a dark period before trim to drying. As they are all grown organically , the need to flush ( bro-science anyway lol) and allow the harshness to go, is less worrisome. I have always dried intact in the past with no cuts to the plant until completely dried. This took care of the chlorophyll hit that often gets missed when drying wet trimmed and leaf gets trimmed into the bud. I also dry slowly to ensure the chlorophyll gets used up and not locked-in to the bud. Spending so long smelling this Mango aroma , it would be wrong to ruin in the harvesting now.. # 2 is my star of the grow so far on this auto perpetual run. She has been a monster from early days and performed perfectly . Her main stem is a total beast and I cannot wait to weigh that alone.. The colours and smell are so perfect too. I think this plant has shown just how capable the genetics are to create a huge plant with very little interference and a normal feeding regime that was simple too. astounding girl. She is a trichrome producing lady too and has some very nice frosting. The pics don't do them justice compared to standing in front of these beautiful plants . Well done Exotic seeds. I will update as the drying process goes and do a full harvest and report once we are there. be safe and well growmies. Grab yourselves some of these seeds from over at exotic and you won't be dissaointed no matter your growing experience...
