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!

11/30: I harvested the first 6 today, flushed 5 more for the second time, and fed everybody else for the last time. I washed all the branches using the 4-step method ascribed by Doc Bud at High Times/420magazine and many other notable cannabis connoisseurs, with slight modifications: 4 x big plastic totes/bins 8 x ounces of 12% hydrogen peroxide (or 32 ounces of 3%) 2 x cups of concentrated lemon juice 2 x cups of baking soda 10 x gallons of water in each bin Unless your tap water stinks, you're safe to use tap water for the procedure, but I used an inline carbon hose filter to fill my buckets. Bin #1 - 10 gallons of water mixed with the hydrogen peroxide Bin #2 - 10 gallons of water mixed with the lemon juice and baking soda Bin #3 - 10 gallons of water as hot tap water Bin #4 - 10 gallons of cold tap water I was mainly concerned about removing as much lint and cat/dog hair as possible, but also rinsing off any residue left from all the various foliar applications of humic/fulvic acid, kelp, axiom, big bloom, and tiger bloom I did. First, I put my leaf blower on low speed and blasted my plants thoroughly, one at a time, replicating 50-60mph winds for about 10 seconds and watched as a whirlwind of debris and hair flew out the back door. Bud-washing: Pluck any necrotic plant material and any old fan leaves off while they're still on the plant. Then, take a handful of branches and submerge them in Bin #1 for about 30 seconds, agitating it, removing from water, submerging again, agitating, etc...then remove it and let it drip out for a few seconds...then repeat the process with Bins #2-4. Let it drip dry overnight with a little bit of airflow, then dry as you normally would...baskets, boxes, etc.. I hadn't watered these plants in a few days, so they were almost in draught, but after doing this procedure, they were fully hydrated(turgid) and seemed to have brighter colors than before. Nice!😍 12/1: The bottom part of the closet seems empty with only 9 plants in there.. 😟 I cut the harvested plants up and put them into drying baskets in the top of my closet with a small oscillating fan on. I've got the temperature fluctuating between 68f and 75f and the RH is staying between 48% and 52%. To do that, I had to take down the small light in the top of the closet to fit the drying baskets up there. So, I moved the 3 shorter plants still up there down to the bottom and put them on top of buckets. Now the bottom of the closet looks full again!😃 I'm anxious to finish up this grow so I can get busy growing the Fastbuds Fast Flowering Photo Testers!!! When I harvest the next 5, I'll flush the remaining plants really well and that will be all the flushing they'll get..I'll let them dry back out for a few days and harvest them. I've got to make some minor improvements to the garden (adding UV, blue and red/far red booster panels and intake fans) That should put me on track to start germinating them by mid-December if all goes well. 12/3: ...early a.m... The harvested plants are already dry!?!?? And have excellent texture??? Wow..bud washing is for real..roughly 48 hours after I hung them to drip dry, and 40 hours after I put them in baskets in 50% RH/70f conditions with moderate airflow...usually takes 4 or 5 days to get a good slow-dry in the same conditions, so I'm convinced that this must be attributed to the bud-washing procedure. I'm sold! Here's the talley so far: plant #1 - 115g (plus 13g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] plant #2 - 108g (plus 18g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] plant #3 - 119g (plus 15g larf) - C4ndycaine [Candy Cane x C4] plant #4 -  92g (plus 6g larf) - Candy Cane [F2] - the smallest plant in the main area plant #5 - 112g (plus 22g larf) - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] plant #6 -  75g (no larf) - Candesia [Candy Cane x Amnesia] - grown in upper area under 200w ...afternoon: I flushed 6 of the last 7 plants for the first time today and harvested 4 more of them. I washed them and hung them to dry.....my dripping wet bathing beauties!😍

8/28/2022 - 21 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 The third week of vegetation of my Mandarina XL 🍊🍊🌻 Nutrients: Jungle Indabox - I had to adjust the dosage, after the first dose of nutrients, the lower leaves of the plant lightened a bit, this was especially visible on her sister Orange Sherbet Auto, which burned the tips of the lower leaves - after this week I reduced the dose by half 🍃🍃 Hesi: Hesi Root Complex I give this root stimulator for root support, although Jungle Indabox also supports root growth, namely: Jungle Urban A - (N-P-K) - (2-1-6) Everything for healthy growth and formation of the root system Atami - ATA Calmag - I missed completely Advanced Nutrients - Bud Candy - I also adjusted the dosage by half 🍬🍬 Pre-flowering: This week the classic white hairs indicating the female gender appeared on the stem 👩‍🌾👧🏼 Light: Mars Hydro TS1000 - really great lamp with sufficient lighting and energy-friendly 💡💡 Training: Topping: I usually top in the third week of the plant's life, just like this time. However, now the girls are very advanced in growth, so they will have more main branches 🌴🌴 LST: Two days after topping, I anchored the lowest branches to the ground with metal clips, tied the higher branches with a string towards the edges of the flower pot, so that the light would shine on each of them 💡💡 Defoliation: In the next two days, I cut off all the large leaves that were shading the branches 🌞🌞 The girl is no longer a child, she is a strong young lady, full of branches and leaves. Its color has also changed, it is now deep green again. The stem is coarse, so I assume a strong root system. Out of all 4 girls, 🌲🌴🌾 is the tallest Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on Twitter 🐦: @ Targona666 See you soon 😍

Last week of flush. Week 10 going to run last few days or week. Depending on trichomes. I think it's done now, but my older grow bro told me, when u think it's done, give it one more week. It does work to push it 1 more week. Smoother smoke and terps peak out.

Growing without issues. Feeding every 2nd day now. Shes requiring much more nutrients. Switched her to 20/4 light cycle as well. Trying to speed up her growth as she's moving slowly.

We had some days of hanging leaves after placing them in new pots, probably root stress. After some days they recovered and now they are doing well in their new homes 🌱✨

😍 shes actually very close to done, i might even harvest her tmr, if not then probably the next day, saw alot of milky with the odd amber today! She is also stankin nice a lovely. She has a little more flower than i expected to be honest, which still isnt very much but i'm pleased for the first outdoor grow. That is if she smokes as nice as she smells. I see a moderate amount of trichs, not like the tent but still nice and sugary. Next post should be the harvest report! I think i'll toss out a dried guess of 18 grams and its gonna be a little fluffy

I left her alone for the last month. It was waterer a week ago. Just left under the shelter rain sun or shine. They grew beautifully but need to be chopped tonight. Smells nice. Buds are as big as advertised or my skill is showing.

Week 6 starts exactly where we left, with 55.5 and 79 cm height for smallest/tallest plant. Humidity is currently fixed rollercoastering around 50/55%, but that’s mostly due to current weather and a bit due to the fact that I remembered I own an indoor fan with a simple cooling option – a fabric being drawn through a water tank before fan blows through it –, and placed to blow agains the tent air inlet it’s cooling the air slightly while adding some percents of humidity. Perfect for the moment. Girls are currently not that hungry. Their soil is still moist enough to make it through today. Think I’ll start tomorrow with the first full round of blooming fertilisers. On morning of day 43, soil had become pretty dry – I did not have time to water them last evening. I removed their lowest, now quite yellow/brown fan leaves and gave each one about 0,5 l of only RO water with some CalMag. Don’t want to risk any over-fertilising. Soil was so dry water first filled their plates but was sucked into the soil immediately after. Leave removing gave me a good impression about terpene production really kicking in. I don’t smell much when I open the tent (again quite dry surrounding air), but moving them a bit released extremely fruity, sweet odour. Yummy! On day 44, that very distinctive smell has increased. Bud growth is growth too, so tallest plant’s height is now as good as 80 cm. Sherbets‘ buds are indeed getting a slight bright purple touch, but still not clear enough to be visible in a highly processed image. (Don’t ask me why the colors look that different every day. I am using exactly the same lighting conditions and image adjustments.) Talking about colors: More old fan leaves, still the lowest ones, still those that I would cut anyway to give the branches more light, are starting to fade. Shall we call this a mostly uninfluenced grow with natural lollipopping? Day 45: Will have to give them some water today. They are still not really that thirsty, with about half a litre per plant every 2.5th day or so. Speed of action has clearly slowed down currently. Instead of half a litre, I gave each one a full. Comparing the week’s photos so far, I think that bud growth is quite ok. Although I miss the time they were stretching quite a bit. Can it be Hesi Bloom Boost (and the rest) really boosted them overnight? When trying to get a focus with the microscope lens attached to the mobile, I incidentally touched a bud and was struck at how sticky it feels already. Slight signs of over-fertilisation on the tips of tallest plants on day 47. Next drink will be without, and I’ll reduce dosage by about 25% further on. Day 48, and end of week 6. Somehow autumn has broken out (but don’t worry too much; image processing produced some differences too): I was presented with a lot of yellow fan leaves today. I have problems keeping the humidity high enough, weather is warm and dry and every manual misting will only hold for an hour at most, while its often bringing the humidity over the best range for a short time. Or is that normal behaviour? The buds already look pretty mature, with quite some hairs drying. But this is only end of week 6, and I think I should get at leat two more weeks, or shouldn’t I? Leaves around the buds are all in very good shape, except for that few brown edges that have not grown.

06/11/20 - New arrivals this week. Firstly a new InkBird with dual timer settings so I can get it cooler at night - going to get some beautiful colours this run. Also have a new Raspberry Pi to monitor remotely and take time lapses! And last but by no means least - Fred, Guardian of the Ganja! 07/11/20 - Slight defoliation getting them ready for the flip. 08/11/20 - They've bounced back and are ready for the flip!

We planted 2 seeds, and 2 sprouted within a day, so far everything is normal. The seeds and fertilizer were provided by the store www.zamnesia.com. Many thanks to Zamnesia and Plagron for these gifts, with them we will grow an excellent crop."

Plant is looking good 😊, fully recovered from defoliation, I set the lights closer, switched them to 12h of light per day, and did some spraying to control pests with neem oil and organic Marseille soap, everything good so far . Can't wait to see the flowers forming. I used a net to open up the branches, and get more colas, it worked but I think stressed out the plant a bit and the fact that I did it in the flowering period didn't helped, so next time I'll do it way before, but I recently bought the net so.. anyway I kept the net on for three days, and now I decided to remove it cause was getting me lot of troubles accessing the setup in general, watering, basically made impossible any movement inside the tent. Still did is thing and now I have not the best even canopy but many more top colas for sure. Please give me any advice, I've noticed it is drying out lot faster, humidity is still at 58% but I believe the roots are much more developed. I will leave home for 2 or 3 weeks, my sister will have the duty to just water, can't ask her more, hope for the best. So updates will be very rare but she'll take pictures for me and for us :D .
