Wow week two of flower is done and I am SO happy with how these four girls are doing. Day 9F/72S they got their first top dressing of Power Bloom at 75ml right before watering, dug into first few inches of soil like usual. I make sure to top dress the Power Bloom every 3 weeks and the other additives every 4 weeks, seems to keep the plants happy. Day 12F/75S things are looking healthy but quite bushy and I'm seeing some growth on the low parts of branches and below main canopy level so did a good cleanup at lights out. Helps to keep from wasting energy on bud sites that will get very little light and produce small/larfy buds. Also redirects that energy into the tops for bigger yields 🤞. Took off a good amount lots of airflow down there now. Day 14F/77S. All the girls are looking happy and healthy. Spending their days praying to the light and packing on bud sites! Looking down on the canopy she is just about full, glad I left some space to start! Oh and there was no noticable shock to the plants from the trim on the 12th day so that's good. Have been keeping the light at 16" from main canopy (aside from 3-4 extra tall branches) and running 100%. Goal is to let them grow another 3" so they are 13" from light and then will raise daily for the last bit of their growth. Should keep it around 750-950umol/s. Still watering 3L per plant every 3 days with just the slightest runoff from each. Tested runoff and is 6.7, usually don't do this but had enough one watering and was curious so figured why not. Was a great week can't wait to see next week's changes!

She is officially 3 weeks old yay ! And female double yay! And I believe she is growing strong. Started showing what I believe are pre flowers ... ? No smell yet and is she small for her age ?? Not sure since it is an Autoflower. Increased Nutes and added a little bloodworm meal to top soil . Grow baby grow , super excited 😁

Seedsman White Widow. I accidentally killed my first seedling as a sprout by getting it wet right as it was sprouting. Live and learn. Here we go again and she's off to a much better start this time. 👍 My Perpetual Harvest strategy…. Originally my plan was to start 2 seeds each month, but had some seeds from one breeder that did not germinate early in my rotation. Ultimately, this caused single seeds to pop and messed up my 2 at a time plans. But, that seemed to work out OK, because now I think starting one seed every 3 weeks is a better strategy. This should provide me with 4-5 plants at a time, instead of 6. However… Since I need to shut down over the summer because my tent is currently in the attic, I’m starting 2-3 seeds at at time for the last couple of rounds. Plants get fed once weekly on weekends. Seedlings get water only. Plants in vegetation get water and Recharge. Flowering plants get water, Recharge or Big Bloom (Fox Farm). Feeding is done using 2 gallon watering can. Any additional waterings during the week are given on an as needed basis per plant. I lift the plants to help determine which plants are more dry (lighter) and provide water any plants via water bottles and watering spikes. I give each pot a quarter turn every day in an effort to make sure the plants get equal lighting from all sides. I rotate the plant in place by turning the pot 90 degrees (I am not rearranging the layout of the plants in the tent on a daily basis). The soil is an ‘organic super soil’ I mixed myself using organic top soil, organic potting soil, organic compost, organic peat moss, organic perlite, organic vermiculite, lime, epsom salt, expanded clay pellets and Jobe’s organic fast start. I am also recycling my soil and water with Recharge when using recycled soil. For plant training I have tried a variety of things, but my plans now are to do LST bending only, no HST anymore. I may decide to go back to HST again in the future, but I’m curious to compare LST training only to see how that goes. Around week 3 I'll do a FIM pinch once there are 4-5 nodes established. And some defoliation around the 3rd week of flowering. I have been doing HST bending and having good results, but think the HST may be causing the plants to take longer to harvest. I hope FIM/defoliation only will help increase harvests while getting me to harvest sooner. Setup: 1- Grow Tent 24”x48”x72” 2- Viparspectra 300W LED’s (1-V300 & 1-R300) 1- Hanging 100w CFL (26w actual) 1- Carbon Filter w/ 190cfm Fan & 4” ducts 1- 6” clip-on fan 1- 700w electric heater - oil filled radiator (in front of air intake behind tent)

: 1st flow week :) really happy with the girls no problems or deficits yet (my fault in some cases). I wanted them to grow taller but I installed the lights too close and it prevented to grow tall and also in some cases defoliation was too aggressive and the girls had to overcome that. - Day 1 week 1 flow: no action just changed lights to 12/12 and flow mode. - Day 2 week 1 flow: watered them with nuts and ph 6,3 or so, no big deal. - Day 3 week 1 flow: just watching them grow and overcome small tent, decided to take out the net cuz no point of it girls just can gro vertically. - Day 4 week 1 flow: shower of 1L with nuts described, following biobizz schedule. - Day 5 week 1 flow: not much to do waiting for them to growww - Day 6 week 1 flow: shower of 1L with nuts described, following biobizz schedule. - Day 7 week 1 flow: a little defo and ready for week 2 :)

Started with four now with three one of them was a male so I had to cut it, sadly it was one of my most lush plants. Now one of the ladies is experiencing some sort of deficiency im not sure what it is. At first I thought it was some kind of mite damage but after over looking the whole plant up and down with a magnification lense I saw nothing of the sorts.

La planta sigue ramificando e inicia la pre floración, se prepara para dar el último estiron. Mientras tanto yo le cambié el fotoperiodo a 20/4 y le agregué un foco de sodio de 400w a los 200w de cfl que ya tenía en vegetación. Volví a ajustar el lst creo que por última vez antes de dejarlas ser hasta el final. Riego cada 4 días aproximadamente con 2L de agua estacionada con ph entre 6.2 y 6.4. Ayer le tocó agua pura y en cuanto me pida más le daré un poquito de extracto de algas de top crop. Big one y top auto en muy bajas dosis, pues la planta no ha mostrado signos de deficiencia alguna.. Hice un riego foliar con aceite de Neem, extracto de canela y jabón potásico a modo preventivo. Ha respondido bien a la nueva luz, la distancia entre el sodio y la copa es de 60cm, iré acortando más adelante 10cm más si la temperatura me lo permite, La sigo!

Джелато имеет очень густую листву и кустистое строение, несмотря на то что вентиляция направлена прямо в самый ее центр опасаюсь плесени. В качестве профилактики опрыскала фитоспорином. Развивается медленно, в связи с низкой температурой в помещении.

Week 7 (Feb 15 - Feb 21). All three plants are doing nicely, and River, our youngest plant, is doing a good job keeping up, but still a couple inches shorter. So, I decided to FIM the older two plants to see if it evens them out, or sends them into a growth spurt. If the later, then I'll give River a FIM next week.

Another easy week. Bud and trichome production seem to be on point. This plant is truly maxed. She is 18 inches with about 12 inches being above the scrog screen. She stretched a little more than expected. She was supercropped in several location and didn't skip a beat. Obviously, the angle of my camera doesn't give the whole picture. But now there's some buds that can be watched in development. I'm fighting night time humidity. My little Vivosun dehumidifier can't keep up. Likely a future upgrade as I'm sure I'll struggle to get to 50% with lights on next week. Temps when my light off could ideally be lower as well. Not enough that I see the need to invest into anything like an A/C. Loving to see the little bits of purple start to come out. I'm sure lower night temps would amplify that. I did a final top dress of Build-A-Flower, an 1/8 cup of Craft Blend, and a topping of Kashi followed by a half gallon watering with the listed nutrients once at the beginning of the week.

Off to week 5 and my ladies are looking healthy again after one week of struggle. Super excited for their progress this week. Height growth is now really noticable and I increased watering to 750ml/plant. Turned my SF SE3000 up to 80% and increased the distance to 60cm. So far they are loving it and I'm right on track for a good grow!

Week 7 let's go ! Day 152 - 04/11 : The plant symptoms have seemed to slow down. The soil is also starting to dry out a bit more which might have been a problem. Day 155 - 07/11 : She was flushed in the morning with about 4L of water and 2L of a 30% strength microbial+trichoderma tea to innocculate the soil in case the microlife took a hit. The run off was 1L. I also switched the 400W MH for a 400W HPS to finish off with a little extra boost of light + different spectrum and see if it makes any differences. The light were moved up by approximately 20-30cm. They are now at about 70cm from the plant. I wondered if the light were maybe too close and caused all those strange symptoms. Let's see if there is any change in their behaviour. Day 156 - 08/11 : It seems the plant is a lot happier. It has only been a day but I feel like she is fattening up faster suddenly. Or it could be that she has recovered from the slight chock from a few days ago. Day 158 - 10/11 : Yep she is definitely happy again. I am convinced it was the light or at least it was part of the problem, I am seeing a lot of growth all of a sudden, on all plants and not just this one. Trichome are up, pistilles are up, calyxes swelling, everything is running smooth again. She is looking ready already, from a bud general appearance I could almost harvest now, but the trichomes are still mostly clear and I have a feeling she has a little more in her. I suspect the reason for such large amount of already brown trichomes might have been the light excess they went through.
