Hi guys, just a quick info for whoever read this diary:
I started this run with two plants but during Week 9 (57 days: 49 vegetative + 8 flowering) I had to remove the one on the right due slow growth (issue started after I topped her).
Enjoy the reading.
🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
Third run begins.
🍪🍦Cookies Gelato by RQS, my first time with photoperiods.
I created this diary at the end of January but due some problem with the new drip system (too ph oscillations), I decided to go back to my first love: the DWC.
This time, however, I decided to build my own DWC, taking into account the negative aspects that I find in the expensive DWC of various brands.
This tank has about 50 liters capacity and on the bottom I have inserted a metal tap that will help me with the solution changes.
The lid is made up of two parts, the upper one on which I made a hole in which I inserted a 2 liter planter full of expanded clay and the two root riot;
the front part of the lid is magnificent because it opens and allows me to do a quick check of PH and EC.
This time I'm going to count the days from the germination date. I'm going to VEG for about 40 days, then switch to 12/12 for about 70 days.
I plan on topping the plants during week 4, then defoliation + SCROG during week 5, switch 12/12 during week 6. Then lollipopping at the end of the stretch.
In this run I will use my new MARS HYDRO TS1000 2022 (already have one with 2021 MOSO driver), bought a few days ago to test the latest model with the proprietary Mars Hydro driver. I'm sure there will be further improvement in my performance 💪.
No sponsor for me yet, what I have is what I bought but I hope someone can help me to bring my crops to the next level. I'm planning to buy a new 90x90 tent and a nice 300/480 watt lamp would be very nice. Crossed fingers! 🤞
🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱GERMINATION STAGE🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱
- 20/2/23: seeds in a glass of demineralized water, 2 drops of rootbastic and 3 drops of hydrogen peroxide for 24 hours, then in root riot;
- 21/2/23: seeds under TS1000: 100 cm distance / 33% dimmer = 50 watt;
- 22/2/23: first Cookies Gelato sprouted;
- 23/2/23: second Cookies Gelato sprouted. - Got some gift from RQS, really appreciated.
I'll consider tomorrow as 1° day of veg for all 2 seedlings. I'll switch 'em to 12/12 after 40/45 days of veg.

9/2 plenty of pistils everywhere. She didnt stretch much though prior
9/4 starting to get Friday frosty on the sugar leaves. Even though Shes got sativa leaves she seems to be growing buds more like an indica. Less long and stretched and more compact and dense. Can't wait to see her in all her glory 💚🤘

I am watering them a bit more than 1L f water every 2 days and allways adding nutrients, I give them Fast food + Shogun + Auto Stimulator + Calmag and 2 days after bio-bloombastic + calmag. Once every two weeks I also add bloombastic in both feedings since it is a low PK (1312, funny number though 👊😋) due to its organic procedence.
The LSDs are the taller plants in the back and in the right wall of the grow tent and the ones in the center are blueberrys
Overall I am very happy, LSDs are getting really mean main colas and it seems to me that they are not going to be ready this week, which is not what Barneys said but is better for me in order to get a greater harvest, and to be honest, me being a first time grower might have also played a role on the process lasting a little longer since I slightly overfed them the first week of flowering. I must also say that this is an exceptional genetic, I mean they are sooo sticky and have such a nice smell that I am crazy to try them once I finish.
Also, I am going to try and get a narchotic effect on these LSDs by harvesting them when all the trichomes turn brown after a 5 day root washing

Welcome to the 2018/19 indoor grow season!!! I am totally psyched to be growing Cream & Cheese CBD from Seedsman as one of the first strains this season. This strain looks like it should be amazing, 21% THC and 18% CBD!!! I'll definitely be cutting clones as she goes/
I started this girl in my humidity dome using a single 18W T5 that came with the dome. That seemed to be too weak for the seedling stage and resulted in a larger stretch than I would prefer, but I'm confident it will grow out of its funk in time. I am seeing some signs of burn, I guess the soil must be too hot. I started to try to flush through with straight ph'ed water, but then I started seeing signs of overwatering (rookie mistake, I know). Now I'm just trying to keep a little water on the bottom tray so it generates some humidity in the dome. There's also a heat mat under the tray I have the heat mat on a timer also, 30 min on/30 min off cycling all day. It seemed to get too hot on 24/7.
I'll be transplanting and moving to my 2'x4' tent in about a week. They will live there during veg, then I'll be moving to a 4'x8' tent (not purchased yet) for flower. I'm also planning on adding some COB LED's in the flower tent. Then I'll dedicate my 2x4 tent to mothers, clones and seedlings.
Its going to be a little different this season with both photo period and autoflowering strains going at the same time. But I'm looking forward to it! 👍
Stay tuned...

Getting ready to transplant in a couple of days. Today on one of the short plants I half snapped one of the fan leaves near the top of the plant! I've also gone and knocked over another one when feeding earlier today 😔 tent should be up by now but can't put up yet ATM

Got everything moved around & the new carbon filter, fans & lights so hopefully I got better coverage with less power👍🏼 Topped 1 of the Gelato OGs today was getting way taller than the rest we will see how she bounces back! Everything else seems to be going great!
Day 22 topped & trimmed them up a bit
Day 23 started LST on a few
Day 24 started mainline on one of the GZ
Day 25 trimmed them a little more today

57 days of flower. Lookin like they are gonna go at least 10-11 weeks.. starting to think the burning on these girls were actually a P deficiency, started adding half a dose of bud xl with the jacks and they seem to be responding well. Been feeding around 750ppm this week run off was around 950 think I will continue at 750 but drop it to 500 next week and ride her out

Hello Everyone 👏,
As you can see, are all Cherry Colas growing, they all have a tightrips in their pots for now, for recognition.
Will make nicer pictures of them in a few days.
They are now 4 days from germination🙏.
The humidifier had been added, so I had to adjust the room a lil bit.
Seedlings don't need much nutrients, neighter do autoflowers. with normal soil I would recommend to only give water for 1-2 weeks, since it holds nutrients in it as well.
But since I'm using Cocos for this grow, I might have to add some basic nutrients in the upcomming week.
For this week I gave/give only water turns and Startbooster turns.
Update day 5:
- Lowerd the lights to avoid stretching. they are now at 75cm distance from lamp to pots.
I want them at 40-50 cm, but I don't want to rush it.
- Added another layer of cocos to avoid the soil from drying up therefore the roots from dying.
This will happen because of lowering the lamps down, the soil will get exposed more to heat.
As you can see, the humidifier is doing his thing haha. Pictures and videos where taken without the lights + fans on.
because of that, it will look like this. Still fun thought.
Enjoy 🙌

Die Lemon Mandarin will immer wieder durch das Scrog-Netz durch schlüpfen und ich muss Sie täglich wieder darunter knüpfen. Nächste Woche dann lollipoppen.

Ready for harvest. A beautiful dark purple/black pheno of fastbuds lemon pie. This plant should yield pretty well. Frosty, smells great. Hope you’ve enjoyed, dry weight with harvest will be my next and final post for this grow. Feels like 10 stars all around here, we will see how it finishes.

58 Days have passed in flower.
Cheese left, Gorilla Girl right.
The "Just water no pH" experiment has failed me around week 5 of flower.
I have not done anything to keep the soil biology alive so thats probably the issue.
Its all good though, it was fun while it lasted and definitely worth a try.
I have let the soil dry as much as possible and then i watered in a tablespoon molasses per gallon water.
pH'd to 6.6.
I just need atleast 3-7 more days of flower and hopefuly the buds will mature a little more.
I took a snip of the bottom leafs to check for trichomes maturity, those are the weakest of trichomes on the plants.
---1st time growing with FLO - Florian Living Organics.---
They claim that there is no need to pH when watering and that their living fertilizer is the only thing that i will need throughout the whole grow so i only need to mix with soil and just water with plain water.
If this stuff works then it can simplify my future grows ALOT!
Happy growing. 😎

Day 65 : This lady started to make amber some of the trichomes. So today i flushed this mature lady with around 50L+ . Runout before flush was 1300ppm. After flush the runout was 400ppm. I decided to stop there. The plan is the next watering to be with pure water and when she drinks it chop chop. I goal for 15%-20% of amber. Now lets say that we are between 5%-10%. She has big heavy nuggs, not long but fat enough. LST was perfect on this lady, almost all colas are in the same height and growth.
Edit Day 69 : The nuggs are very thick, Stills i don't see the number of them that i want. So i watered with pure water and continue till is ready. Leaves started to getting yellowish, so flush was successful.

This week seem like the plant didn’t eat much of the fertilizer so we decided to push the Co2 up a bit, but its still drink crazy amount of water. Some of the plant were starting to smell and also getting a bit frosty. Hope that everything will be all good, have a good day to everyone who reading this Cheer!🔥🙏🏽🙏🏽🇹🇭👍🏻

Info:
Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media.
I am only active here on growdiaries.
I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake.
Flowering day 1
since time change
to 12/12 h.
Hi guys :-) .
The time has finally come 👍
You have been switched to 12/12 hrs and are ready to flower.
Of course, cuttings were cut beforehand to keep the genetics.
For 4 days now she has also been getting Fast Buds from GreenBuzzLiquids.
They were also sprayed again with GBL Fast Plant spray.
She is very healthy and I am excited to see how she gets going again in bloom :-).
This week it was poured twice with 1.2 l each time (for nutrients, see nutrient table above).
Then I filled canisters with fresh osmosis water for the next few weeks 👍.
The tent was cleaned and every plant was checked for health.
At the moment I am tinkering with the ventilation because there are currently 4 fans with 4 activated carbon filters running, which I want to make more efficient by putting a hose through 2 tents.
These are the things about which you desperately at the beginning but learned from them in the end.
I wish you all a nice week.
Stay healthy 🙏🏻

this is weeks 5 and 6.I topped them and trained the branches out to the side. Plus I broke one... I tried to save it but it broke again later
