This grow gets a ten out of ten from me on behavioral attributes on how she grew through out all the stages of life. Vegging was an absolute pleasure, she thrived off the 125g of amendments, cal-mag, and kelp all the way to day 30. Once I noticed flower development I proceeded to give her, her first feeding of grow and bloom nutrients both at the same time @ a diluted mixture of 25% then proceeded to increase increments as needed into flower, cutting out the grow after two feedings. She has been to date one of the cheapest grows I've ever had, all that's left is to harvest, cure and smoke for the final conclusion on 3 bears auto from Mephisto. Hats off to the boys over there! All this did was get me excited to grow the remaining Mephistos I have stored away!

9/20 Man I've been busy. I'm sick too. Looking back at my diaries I get sick this time of year every year it seems. Once I get the important stuff done I'll put some pictures of finished product up. Sunny today and windy as hell. All the plants left seem to be doing good and look like they'll finish. The pink kush might not finish how I WANT but it's stinky and has lots of milky trichs. I'm playing with fire with this mk ultra. It's fucking done. It could get a LITTLE more amber and maybe come together a bit more but I don't know if it's smart to risk it. Frost warning in effect tonight. I'll probably check the forecast and harvest tomorrow. We're having some good weather just cold nights. Then it turns to like a 30% chance of rain for 4 or 5 days. I'll yank it before that. This actually turned out tp be a pretty good year. Haven't tested everything (especially shit in the ground) but what I have sampled I'm incredible happy with. 9/21 IT was a balmy 36° on my way to the garden. My windshield had frost on it. Surprisingly the TIGHT nugs of the pink kush and this phenome of 10th planet didn't seem to mind it. Both strains are still increasing in size, smell and trich development. Not just changing but adding more. Trichs on trichs. Very in hospital environment. It will be interesting to see what happens with these girls. We will be getting some rain. I mean we've had SOME but I mean real rain. If thays the case I'll put these in the garage for a little bit. Honestly I thought these would be goners. I've gotta get to work trimming bucking and manicuring flower. Doing a garden like this sure is an awful lot of work. But the reward is worth every penny. WATERED EVERYTHING LEFT A HALG GALLON APIECE. PROBABLY SHOULDVE GAVE A GALLON BUT THEY WERE STILL A LITTLE HEAVY. 9/22 It rained last night and we got another frost. HAD to cut a main branch of the tenth planet as it had stem rot. Lots more cold weather coming. If I could get it done and I wasnt sick and have all this other material to process I would probably pull then. It's getting really cold. We're going to be getting rain. I'll check the weather and hopfully I can just put the movable ones in the garage. Either way things will work out. Pictures that will be coming will be of the finished product! 9/23 Had a super busy day. Had to but a branch off the pink kush due to stem rot. If I had time I would've taken it. It rained today but I think the plants will be alright. I've been working non stop. I may not have the quantity I'm used too but the quality is AMAZING. I can't wait to do the smoke points and put up finished flower. The other 10th planet seems to be doing really well. I expected nothing off that. I'll keep it updated but it's hard with everything going on. 9/24 Had more emergencies. Raining and cold. Finding stem rot a boytritus but not much. We are getting an inch of rain tomorrow and rain the next day. I wasn't going to watch my shit rot as it was hard as hell and all milky so I quickly waited for a break in the rain and harvested two pink kushes. Still have one pink kush in the 50 and the 10th planet. I cut a cola off 10th planet just in case. This should've been done yesterday but it is what it is. Even with ALL the damage this had been a pretty good year. I can't believe the quality of....well....everything lol. A couple take the cake but I'll wait to do that. I gotta get back to work. 9/25 Heavy rains today and tomorrow. After seeing the damage on the 10th planet and the stripped branches and dying leaves I took out the loupe and checked the trichs. It was a rare break in rain and the plant was luckily dry. After seeing the pistols change on many buds to pure red and seeing lots of cloudy trichomes abd swollen buds I was able to harvest it. I have one pink kush left that sea7s like a willow. I probably should've taken that by looking at it but the trichs had some clear on it. Lots of damage this year on all plants but the first special kush. The quality is amazing though. I havent got to try every strain but I am incredibly impressed with what I have so far. I stopped smoking dabs (for now) in favor of switching my different strains up. I hope that every gardener is able to instil there energy in the plant and gets the same feeling that I do because it's wonderful. I will do an independent review of each strain, and keep updated on last pink kush.

Tag 22: 🌱: LST wurde etwas nachjustiert, um die Verschattung zu minimieren. Leider habe ich dabei eines der größeren Fächerblätter eines der Haupttriebe beschädigt (Stiel gebrochen) und musste dieses nun doch entfernen. 💧: Die Erde war trocken, daher wurde gegossen. Den Angaben meines Wasserversorgers und meinen Berechnungen zur Folge, habe ich das CalMag weggelassen und nur 0,25g/l Bittersalz hinzugefügt. Auch das Bio Grow wurde wieder auf die ursprünglichen 50% des Düngeplans reduziert. Insgesamt gab es ca. 2,5l bis zu einem ersten kleinen Drain. 💡: Die Beleuchtung wurde hochgeregelt, auf einen DLI von ca. 40 bei ca. 40cm Abstand zur Pflanze. Update: Abstand auf 35cm und Leistung etwas verringert (weiterhin DLI ~40), da sonst Temperatur zu hoch steigt. Tag 24: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt (leider etwas verspätet, aber ging nicht anders). Entfernt wurden die unteren und somit innersten und äußersten neuen Triebe an den 4 größeren "Haupttrieben" und deren Fächerblätter. Um den Schock nicht zu groß zu machen, dürfen die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter noch 2-3 Tage dran bleiben. Zusätzlich wurde das LST noch etwas angepasst. 💧: Die Erde ist noch nass. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 26: 🌱: Heute wurde erneut die Schere angesetzt und die nach innen wachsenden Fächerblätter entfernt. Zusätzlich wurde das LST noch etwas angepasst. 💧: Die Erde ist noch nass. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 27: 🌱: Es ist der Beginn von Tag 27. Es wurden nur kleinere LST Anpassungen vorgenommen und das Blattwerk etwas sortiert um die Ausleuchtung zu verbessern. Die kleine Lady denkt anscheinend bereits daran in die Blütephase zu wechseln, zumindest zeigen sich die ersten zarten Pistillen. 💧: Die Erde ist noch immer feucht. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert. Tag 28: 🌱: Das LST wurde für ein einheitlich hohes Blätterdach erneut leicht angepasst. Ich überlege in den kommenden Tagen auch noch einige der unteren Fächerblätter, die mittlerweile ziemlich im Schatten liegen, zu entfernen. Zunächst jedoch schaue ich, was der Stretch die nächsten Tage so bringt. So langsam macht sich auch ein leichter Duft bemerkbar. 💧: Die Erde war trocken, daher wurde gegossen. Heute gab es insgesamt 3 Liter der gleichen Wachstumsmischung wie letzte Woche. Das Bittersalz scheint auf jeden Fall zu helfen. 💡: Die Beleuchtung ist unverändert.

We are nearing the end of this grow and so far everything is taking shape very nicely. I did a quick 2 day flush with some florakleen from GHE and then got back to the bloom nutrients. I did this just to clean the roots a little and get rid of any unwanted salt build up. This will hopefully set us up for a strong finish. Really impressed with the marshydro fc3000 thus far. For next week i will push the EC levels quite a bit, remove any unwanted popcorn nugs and try set it up for a strong finish.

Vegetation cycle starts. Light intensity 50% @ 16 inches Nutrient program starts at 50% Green Planet Easy Feed and Week 2 begin Green Planet Pro Feed @ 50%. Abit too much light for the plants finding the sweet spot on a 480watt LED,they recovered well. Still battling high humidity and high temps. 28-31'C 65%-90%. Introducing a new dehumidifier as of next week. Have turned AC on High between 11am-5pm (hottest part of the day) Summer only!

*****Week 17 growth – March 27 to Apr 2, 2021 – Week 8 flower ****** We are in the first full week of flush now. Color change time and more swelling😃👍 This girl has been a little smaller in bud mass but she has certainly been looking like fire little dense nugs on her💪👍😃 The smells coming off are increasing and getting some pine or lemon notes as well as woody. Buds are really dense but the lowers are going to end up in extracts as she has grown tight in a way and it’s been a little tough getting some light down lower in her. The girls are drinking well with being watered almost everyday. Moving into the phase of letting the pots dry right out before adding more water to ensure they are finishing all the nutrients in the media. Again, really just keeping them watered when they want it and taking pictures at this point😎 Little more detail….. Mar 27/21, Day 50 - 4L plain water at 6.0pH - fade is starting but she just isn’t going to lighten up as much as I would like by the time we get to the end......all is good though. Mar 28/21, Day 51 - 4L watering today with RO water. - 30ppm and 6.1pH Mar 29/21, Day 52 - cold in the tent today so turned the heater back on to brin up to 77 degrees. It was holding at 74, a little low. - nothing watered. Mar 30/21, Day 53 - 4L watering with tap water at 5.8pH - leaf edges darkening and showing some fade😃 Mar 31/21, Day 54 - watered late in the day with only 3L of RO water - 25ppm and 6.1 pH Apr 1/21, Day 55 - dry out day Apr 2/21, Day 56 - light power reduced again and down to 300 watts. - plain water with tap. - 3L each 280ppm and 6.1pH Through week 8 and going into 9 now. Still some nutrient to keep working on in the leaves......give them a little more time💪👍

A whole square meter plant. It even fills the corners. I move the light over the canopy every few hours now... Defoliated the bottoms. Wondering if I should take the rest of the long stem leaves off but worried about shocking it. Will continue tucking if possible and removing as a last resort. Found out I been slowing it down, should have been runing it 2 holes up the big netpot that it was transplanted to. I was running it just below it, the whole time. Roots are starting to shape like the bucket and it is impossible to get out of the tent now. Up to 1.5 gallons a day since raising the water level. I only have 1 small fan and it stopped oscillating so I set it on the floor blowing upwards, now all the leaves dance around a little bit instead of a few being blown sideways.

This plant seems to have grown much denser and better than my first plant. I just got the ac infinity ventilation setup with controller 69 for my 2x2, still trying to learn, hopefully grow #3 goes even better. Stay tuned

Week 8 begins for mandarin dreams and divine storm. All four ladies are frosty, sticky and the mandarin smell is incredibly strong. I love how these girls look and are growing under the TSW2000, they look better than round 1, grown under my own custom Samsung strip's. Thank you Mars-Hydro for the light! Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽🌳💚
