**** WEEK 10 **** both hulks shaping up to be some real beasts. just can’t beat good ol sunlight

Die letzten Tage gab es kein Wasser mehr und 48h Licht vor der Ernte. Anschließend wurde die Pflanze im ganzen geerntet einen Tag über aufgehangen und anschließend die einzelnen Buds zum trocknen in den Cannatrol verfrachtet. Nun harren wir der Dinge und freuen uns jetzt schon auf fruchtige Terpene.

Wie erwartet konnte ich nach meinem Urlaub am Ende der 9ten Woche die LCC ernten. Den besten Erntezeitpunkt habe ich durch den Urlaub leider verpasst aber da ich die beruhigende Wirkung bevorzuge ist dies nicht so schlimm für mich. Nass wog die kleine 128g und sie trocknet grade im Zelt vor sich hin. Ich peile ca. 10 Tage Trocknungszeit an. Trockengewicht, Bilder der Blüten und Rauchbericht folgen noch.

Love ❤️ my AC infinity tent! 2x4 is soooo easy to control. Just a simple humidifier, two small clip fans, and of course my AC infinity 4” fan and digital controller. All I have to do is fill the reservoir for the RH, and mist the seedlings 🌱 once per day. AC tech takes over and maintains the environment so easily. Using distilled water still, no nutes, nothing added. Just coasting and maintaining the environment for some healthy root development 🙂

Started Northern Lights Automatic. I will be applying LST so it doesn’t grow too big. Been feeding it RQS Organic Easy Grow tablets. All good so far!

Wow 😲 I was thinking this was going to be a total runt. As if turns out I am starting to think of it as having a lowryder auto. I know I know 🤣 it's not a lowryder. She's actually a Northern light crossed with Big Bud Auto from Seedsman. This little lady was barley 3 weeks old when I noticed her transitioning to flower. I was about to pull the plug and decided otherwise. I mean what could it hurt to grow her out. Anyway she's more than doubled in size and her bud sites are well formed, stacked up and just looking good. Question? Would it be better to turn my 250 true watt down and move the light closer?,or run it full power and set it higher ?

Starting week 4 off with a few updates: We lost two soldiers today, 11/25/23, and pulled both of the struggling watermelons from the herd. Lowered the lights a bit as I felt they were a bit too high and to prepare for the real vegetative phase coming this week. DIY C02 bottles bubbling away nicely. Transplanted the remaining girls to their final home (5 gallon fabric pots) on 11/26/23. Used Photone app to dial in to proper PPFD at 350 as I was a bit high. Nearing end of week 4, I’m really starting to see rapid growth. Since I’m going with a SOG for this grow, I won’t be doing any topping but I will be doing some LST to start week 5 with 90 degree LST clips. (I’m calling it the 5x5 LST; 5 weeks at the 5th node pair) 😆

Wicked week. Moving: This week report starts with my moving to a new apartment. It's actually not my first moving with a plant, but now it's kinda too big, so I asked my friends bag. Btw, the next day they stayed in different airports, so the bag didn't really smell after it 😂 I poured out the water from the bucket, gently placed it into the bag. And then the main rule I had is to keep the bad vertically while transplanting. And I'd suggest to just walk with the bag to the destination place, but since it was too far, I needed to order an uber. It was quiet hard to find the right car, because I cannot put it into a trunk, and I needed to order a truck or find a car with a large interior, so i could put near foot. I chose the 2nd one. Don't like extra attention 😁 Plant report: The moving was quiet easy for her, and not for me. She recovered quiet fast after it. But here I forgot to tie her down, which is my mistake, and the next day the grow up a lot, so it wasn't enough thread length anymore. Despite I don't use strings anymore, I still stretch her by myself with a bare hands few times a day. It actually works, just a bit worse, I guess. Usually I grow in closets, but here they have no space for it. So I need to think about her future home. I didn't want to buy a tent at the beginning, cause I think it's not that necessary. I still think so, they are way more overrated than the other 'grower stuff', but may be it would be more comfy with it 😃 I forget, that my lamp was not 70% only, so I turned it to max now. I also found out, that I got almost infected from bamboo(week 2) not only by aphid, but by ebanaya Sciara also. And they are growing their fucking babies in a wet ground. So I kind of buried them. I wrapped opened medium in a package. Now I see and kill only 5 this little monster flying around, before that was counted in dozens. I keep defoliating every day 4-8 leaves. To remove old useless leaves, or to open a new ones. Finally, by the end of this week, preflower started. After that smell also changed a bit, now it's less 'plant' and more 'buds' in the air.

Had a bit of a cat-tastrophy this week. I left my tent open to go and fill a bucket of water, came back and zipped it up. What I didn't know is that the cat got in. Not 5 minutes later I can hear all sorts of shit moving around so I came in to find I had zipped him and and he went bonkers and bent almost every branch on the Skunk. So I had to do emergency tie jobs, but I ended up losing 2 medium colas and 1 small one. Could have been much worse if the skrog net wasn't there to stop them from snapping. Injuries look like bent plastic straws, so I'm going to be watching her closely to see if she herms from that massive amount of stress. Some of the pics have cat hair in them, thank the little brat. Anyway, Skunk is a 45-50 day finisher so I'm going another week and then she gets the chop. Lots of microscope videos today and finally found an amoeba. Also something moving in an egg...what is it? That's at 400x so I think it's a nematode egg based on what I found online. If you look closely at the super zoomed in trichome shot, you can see the reflections of other trichomes...just fucking epic.👏 All the food stops now, too much in the soil for her to start senescence. Nothing but water and FFJ now. New pistils are still coming in so who knows, maybe she'll keep going a few more weeks.

March 7, 2019 Update: These babies are doing great! I plan on transplanting 6 plants and moving them into the flowering room this weekend. As of right now my plan is to move 1 Medi Kush CBD, 1 DinaMed CBD and 4 Cherry Hemp plants into flower. I'm going to pick the largest/most developed plants for the move. Then I'll keep the rest in veg for another month, next month I'll pick the next 6. I'd like to get the plants on a monthly rotation so I can be harvesting monthly.

Week 5 This week was a busy one. I topped ivory at the beginning of the week. Tied her down in the middle. Then topped her again at the end of the week. She is growing like a weed. Ivory is still in a one litre pot. She is getting 1.5 litres twice a week right now.

Empezamos la semana 3. Seguimos con 100W 18 horas de luz. Van avanzando a buen ritmo. Estamos consiguiendo controlar la temperatura, la semana pasada hemos tenido picos de 29° C. Esta ya estable en 26°C. Ningún cambio en cuanto a los fertilizantes seguiremos con los mismo. Buenos humos Tupskywalker

Week 6

Time to cut

This thing is insane! Rapidly growing everyday. I need to keep it under control for another for about 30 more days before I can fit it in my other tent.

Now the water has calmag as u see and the drypart 1.3 Grams per liter

She stretchin’ hard and throwin’ out sites 🔥 Got her topped, light defol + lollipopped — airflow’s clean. Might strip a bit more soon if she bulks up. Stackin’ up nice so far… let’s see what she doin’ next 💪🌿

Début de formation de têtes avec de nombreux sites de formation de têtes créer grâce au LST. Arrêt du LST sinon j'aurais plus de place dans la box. Maintenant j'attends le mûrissent des têtes.

🙊

Flowering time! What a week.. The two girls are getting huge! Realise when seeing this tent of two (!) plants, that you are watching autoflowers! The genetics on these are crazy. With the added training each developt 3 or even 4 fully main stems. The amount of bud sites is just crazy and I'm expecting a big yield. The only nutrientes I used are the boosters from RQS. I just reguarly add these with waters and thats it! Nothing less nothing more. You already see them getting frosty. Really excited and amazed! Anyone can sport which of the two is the Bubble Kush and which is the blue cheese? Greetings everyone!
