2/21/2023 - Day 50: Starting pre-bloom this week. Changed the light from 18/6 to 16/8. Also, started adding my bloom nutrients. Watered about 3.5 gallons and threw a little bit of everything in today. Started with Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja as a wetting agent, then added Rootwise Micro Complete, Enzyme Elixer, and Bio-Phos, BuildASoil Big 6, BuildABloom, Coconut Powder, Pure Protein Dry, Yah-Whey, Fermented Comfrey and Fermented Peach. Also top dressed with some BuildAFlower. 2/23/2023 - Day 52: not much to report. Plants are doing great, and seem to like the slightly cooler temps lately. Mainly just been tucking branches under the scrog screen and doing some super cropping in an attempt to keep my canopy even. 2/24/2023 - Day 53: gave the plants their weekly IPM, with a foliar spray at lights out of warm distilled water and BuildASoil EM-5. This is also to clean the leaves in preparation for the flip to flower next week. 2/26/2023 - Day 55: last day of veg. Officially flipping to flower tomorrow. The scrog screen is pretty full, other than the Frozen White Runtz, which is barely reaching the screen. Hoping it will catch up more during stretch. Also, plan to put a second layer of trellis on.

She recovered very well from last week training and lollipop. I hope this technique gives me good results, is looking promising so far, I decided to lower the nutrient amounts to half the recommended from advanced nutrients since I burnt my pineapple chunk a little.

+- Girkls are doing very well Did a 21 day defoliation for good air flow also finished lolly popping all excess branches tht didnt make it to the screenthey will soon be in full bloom and geting down to m4 weeks till harvest they are drinking a gallon a day now of nutrient solution have to add just water after only three days with fresh 5 gallons of nutrient water went through 4 gallons in 3 days been checking the ph twice daily due to the ladies drinking so much it goes both ways it climbes to almost 7 in 12 hrs then will drop to 4.9 the next 12 so i really nhave to stay on top of it more than usual with this strain im shooting for 10 ounces of grade A Smoke. wich will be my biggest harvest ive done to date ive gotten up to 9 ounces before but thats about it havent been able to find the 16 ounce harvest yet but im trying ++

Hi meine lieben, 🤗 Die 2. Woche der Wachstums-Phase steht an... ...und die realität schlägt zu. Hatte versucht diesen Run mit einem höheren VPD-Wert und dadurch ohne zusätzliches CalMag hinzufügen zumüssen, laufen zulassen. Da laut einer Studie, man durch einen erhöhten VPD, kein zusätzliches CalMag unter LED's hinzugefügt werden müsste. Allerdings gieße ich noch mit Leitungswasser. Also hatte ich mir mal die werte meiner Stadtwerke angeschaut. Und in meinem Wasser habe ich Calcium = 78 mg/l und Magnesium = 5,3 mg/l und somit ein verhältnis von 14:1😰. Was von einer Optimalen versorgung von 2:1 - 4:1 CalMag etwas entfernt ist... 😅 Beste Lösung wäre ein Filtersystem wie der Watertrim zu nutzen. Günstiger ist es Mono-Magnesium (oder bei bedarf Mono-Calcium) zu besorgen und das Wasser im richtigen Verhältnis auszugleichen. _________________________________________________________ Optimale CalMag-Versorgung in den einzelnen Phasen: Sämling: Cal: 50-60 mg/l Mag: 20-30 mg/l Wachstum: Cal: 80-100 mg/l Mag: 30-50mg/l Blüte: Cal: 100-120 mg/l Mag: 40-60mg/l ______________________________________________________________ Wie mein Ablauf in dieser Woche genau aussah, habe ich auch diesmal für uns Dokumentiert. Ich wünsche dir viel Spaß & Happy Growing 🌱🤗: _______________________________________________________________ Umgebungswerte der Woche: - Temperatur: 25°C - Luftfeuchtigkeit: 65% - VDP (Room): 1,1 _______________________________________________________________ Tag 8: - Nur beobachtet 😋 Tag 9: - Pflanzenhöhe gemessen: 17 cm 🌱 - Stamm-Durchmesser gemessen: 0,48cm = 48mm Ø - Licht Intensität eingestellt - PPFD: 310µmol / DLI: 20 Mol Tag 10: Bewässert 👇 (Leitungswasser): - Volumen: 1000ml - PH-Wert: 6,15 - EC-Wert: 0,46 - Temperatur: 20°C Run-Off (Drain) gemessen 👇: - PH-Wert: 6,5 - EC-Wert: 3,6 - Temperatur: 21°C - Volumen: 350ml Tag 11: - Nur beobachtet 😋 Tag 12: Bewässert 👇 (Leitungswasser): - Volumen: 1000ml - PH-Wert: 6,1 - EC-Wert: 1,52 - Temperatur: 20°C Run-Off (Drain) gemessen 👇: - PH-Wert: 6,6 - EC-Wert: 3,1 - Temperatur: ca. 22°C - Volumen: 280ml Pflanzen Training: Fimming, Vor-Lollipopping Lampenabstand eingestellt: 50cm Licht Intensität eingestellt - PAR - PPFD: 280 µmol / DLI: 18,2 Mol Pflanzenhöhe gemessen: 20cm 🌱 Tag 13: - Nur beobachtet 😋 Tag 14: Bewässert 👇 (Leitungswasser): - Volumen: 1200ml - PH-Wert: 6,1 - EC-Wert: 0,48 - Temperatur: 21°C Run-Off (Drain) gemessen 👇: - PH-Wert: 6,38 - EC-Wert: 2,5 - Temperatur: 21°C - Volumen: 360ml Pflanzenhöhe gemessen: 24 cm 🌱 Stamm-Durchmesser gemessen: 0,70cm = 70mm Ø Lampenabstand eingestellt: 40 cm Licht Intensität eingestellt - PPFD: 340µmol / DLI: 22 Mol

Day 165 14/10/24 Monday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag today Starting to see new growth showing no signs of new seeds!! She is spitting out new pistils again, I may run nutes for this week then flush , as trichomes are looking clear still with only spots of cloudy. Picture's (over exposed to light) 📸 Day 167 16/10/24 Wednesday Feed today 😁 using de-chlorinated tap water phd to 6.3. Her pistils keep maturing rapidly, but then I check twice a day and each time I check, they look either orange and almost showing finished signs... Then she slaps out another round of pistils and trichomes are coming cloudy still. She may well be a 12 week flower. I'll keep feeding till I see majority cloudy. Picture and video update 📸💚 Day 168 17/10/24 Thursday (End of week) Damn!!! Found two tops, overnight turn brown hairs, and sugar leaves yellow and dry. Needless to say two tops had been attacked by mould. After a heavy detailed inspection of plant, it is only these two tops. So I have removed, bagged and hoping now no new mould is spotted 🤦‍♂️ Rest of the plant looks and smells fantastic 💚 I have update pictures and a video 📸💚 Day 169 18/10/24 Friday Damn, she has lost another 2 tops due to mould. I'm gutted, so to stop any further disappointment, I am chipping her tonight before lights on 💚✌️ Note to self- lesson learned when doing Scrog, Lollipop MORE. I have left too much on and it has reduced airflow causing humidity to stay above 62%.

Compost tea turned out well, let it go for 26 hours total and geared it towards fungal. Also took some soil samples several days later around the stalks and found a lot of nematodes and protozoa which is what you want to see. Lots of different types of nematodes so what your looking for are the bacterial feeders (there are charts online that show you how to identify them). Mycorrhizae can be identified by it's dark colour, uniformity and segmented nature. Testate amoebas live in a translucent shell like a snail and are easy to spot but hard to spot moving due to my shitty microscope, but look for the tentacles. Also found some eggs with movement inside, no idea what they are but they have vacuoles and flagella. She is really getting sticky and smelly now; berries with herb notes. You can see the resin stretching over the trichomes in the last pic. No signs of senescence yet so I'm not going to feed them, they should have plenty of food anyway as this is a second run of the same soil.

Blütewoche 10: Die letzten Tage Zeitraum: 24.07. bis 28.07. Blütetag: 63 bis 67 Nach rund 9,5 Wochen Blüte war es so weit, Erntezeit! Die Trichome hatten genau das Verhältnis erreicht, das ich mir gewünscht hatte. Ich hab mir meine Japansäge geschnappt und die King Juice kurzerhand am Stamm durchtrennt. Danach hab ich sie vorsichtig samt ScrOG-Netz aus dem Zelt gehoben und sie mitten im Wohnzimmer platziert. Erst da wurde mir das ganze Ausmaß bewusst. Eine richtig große Pflanze, viele Triebe und eine Menge schöner, harziger Buds. Die Headbuds oben waren kompakt und groß, weiter unten gab’s viele kleinere Popcornbuds aber auch die waren fest und klebrig. Nach rund 4 Stunden Trimmen hing das ScrOG-Netz wieder im Zelt, dieses Mal verkehrtherum und vollgepackt mit den einzelnen Ästen. Ein regelrechter Himmel aus Buds 😍 Die Trocknung lief optimal, Temperaturen lagen konstant bei 20–21 °C und die Luftfeuchtigkeit zwischen 54–65 %. Nach 10 Tagen habe ich die Buds am 07.08. final abgenommen. Optik: Kompakte, daumengroße Buds, viele kleine Harzbomben mit lila Farbtönen Geruch & Geschmack: Fruchtig, süß, würzig, pfeffrig. Wirkung: Sie knallt gut, ist aber trotzdem klar im Kopf. Sehr angenehm! Fazit: Ich bin mega zufrieden mit dem gesamten Grow. Keine Ausfälle, kaum Mängel, Temperaturen und LF meistens stabil und das Beet hat wirklich gut funktioniert. Die Pflanze hat sich wunderbar an ScrOG angepasst, und ich konnte mir damit echt einen kleinen Traum erfüllen. Eine Pflanze komplett durchziehen, schön ausgebreitet im Zelt. genau so hab ich mir das vorgestellt. Es hat richtig viel Spaß gemacht! 😊 Die Vorbereitungen für den nächsten Run laufen bereits, das Beet wird wieder frisch begrünt und ich freu mich auf den nächsten Grow!!!

Well it was another great week for the Super Silver Haze sisters!! Day 28 for them and they are growing very well👌They have all grown about an inch in height in the last week. Plant #1 has a slight earthy/ fruity smell starting to come out. Her bud sites are slowly starting to fill in nicely. Plant #2 has really filled in and is just a very quick growing pheno. It had the onset of flowering very quick and has just kept going at the same rate since🙌 Only thing about that is she is using way more Phosphorous than the other 2 plants and was starting to show the beginning of a deficiency, luckily It was caught quick and is not affected any of the top new growth or bud site areas. So now she is getting her own nutrient solution with a slightly higher amount of phosphorous. She also has a Strawberry fruity like smell, it is very unique! Plant #3 Is doing great👍 She doesn't have to much of a smell yet, but it does have a hint of a skunky/fruity smell to it according to what my nose is telling me😂 Overall they are growing fantastic with the exception of the slight P deficiency that showed up on Plant #2, Like I stated earlier I believe it is due in part to how fast she is growing and me not thinking to add a little more knowing she was growing faster than the other plants, combined with her position in the tent. Where she is kinda in the overlap of the 1000w HPS lights even though the light is strongest directly under them. Where I have 2 running in a 5'x10' area. So the overlap of them into each other creates quite an even light coverage, most of the time. but sometimes can be stronger than directly under the light depending on the spacing of the hoods/reflectors and type of hoods/reflectors, and that is what was happening here. They where fairly close together so the edge of their light dispersion was reaching almost to the center of the other light creating a pretty intense spot of light in the overlap. So I moved the lights just a little further apart, but did not want to go to far because the plant was loving that much light. and really only wanted to reduce it to help it bounce back from the slight P deficiency, since the more light the more photosynthesis the more Phosphorous😊 Anyways Thanks for stopping by to check things out!!👊 Happy Growing an Plentiful Harvests to All!!🙏

So, with the harvest complete and the dry finished, the rest is now going into jars for the final cure and storage. Overall I enjoyed this grow, it needed minimal interventions and had a smaller work load compared to the other grows. The amount of dried flowers is 752g (1.11gpw) so a decent haul, I threw a lot of B grade buds in the hash bag due to the large number of low level flowering sites (I need to rethink my canopy management) and also with the lack of stretch after flipping made the internodal spacing a bit too tight. Managed to extract 215g of grade a hash from her as well which I have pressed into a slab (pictures). I learned many things along the way, namely root health and the importance of keeping organic additions as low as possible. I also decided to try out clones for my next run, just to get a little more canopy and growth consistency - those of which are in an aeroponics tub at the moment waiting to root (picture). Thanks for those of you who followed along most of the way, good luck with all your grows!

Hello all and thank you for stopping by. Not much drama this week as things have settled down and we're finally seeing big growth. Day 16 - Really nothing happened here. I did water with my remaining BS Molassis/Epsom salt solution. PH corrected up to 6.5 Day 17 - Here is my only real drama. If you see in the corresponding picture I have shriveled and yellowed tines on my 3 bladed leaves. This is because I left my light to close for too long. Because I wasn't paying attention to the distance between the light and canopy (Only monitoring the height of the plant) for about 3 days the canopy was getting closer till this day when I realized. I raised the light to 20" about canopy and remaining at 60%. Good news is my exhaust fan controller switch and ducting came in. I set it up and love how much more stable my Temps and RH have become. Day 18 - Today I started bottom watering and what a difference I'm noticing. She just sucked up the water and the growth moving forward was satisfying. Day 19 - Just monitored the environment on this day. However the damage to the leaves is done but the colour came back so Ying yang ☯️ Day 20 - again nothing but monitor the environment. I started rotating the pots 1/4 turn per day Day 21 - Bottom watered today and she took almost 500ml. Sprayed top down As well to moisten top. Added sticky traps for pest control. Also adjusted light up an inch to please the canopy. Day 22 - Today I rotated the pot 1/4 turn, misted the top of coco and monitored environment. She has about 3 nodes now although tightly packed. Breeder did say she was a short bushy girl. Overall the plant is coming along nicely and I'm happy with her growth. The stunting could have been my over watering in seedling or maybe it wasn't that bad, looking back that is. Logging has helped me so much as I often feel I'm not doing enough, then look in my logs and see, no you did that shit yesterday. Thank you to everyone who said to keep notes. I listened and I'm indebted to you all. Cheers till next week 🌲🌬️
