Well not much to say this week, no defoliation, no top dressing, just watching the plants filling in and get frosty!! ❄️😁. All four girls are looking pretty darn happy with life. Although #3 is a lighter color they're all fed and watered the same so I'll just chalk it up to different pheno. Two of the girls are starting to show purple on the leaves and a pinkish hue on the bud sites. 🤞For some awesome colors! Still watering every 3 days but now 14L instead of 12L. No drooping on water day but soil nice and dried out so timing is working 👍. Picked a few leaves (maybe a dozen or so each) off #1 and #2, but they didn't get defoliated quite as well so not surprised. Just leaves that were really bunched up or below canopy with no light.
Here's hoping for another good week!
Buenas a tod@s!!, bueno pasamos la segunda semana de floración de las red cookies gelato, de momento no tengo problema excepto algunas hojas amarillas, le baje la dosis de los productos e intento mantener una temperatura y humedad adecuada, hay días y días, de momento respondieron muy bien y están creciendo rápido y muy bien, hay una más avanzada q las otras pero bueno, ya florecerán 😅.. algún herror mio. Ya vamos viendo q tal desarrollan más adelante.... Buen finde para tod@s y buenos humos... 🇦🇷🤝🏻🇪🇦👍🏻💨💨💨
Day 91
The plants are progressing beautifully through the flowering stage. Buds are now forming dense clusters along the main stems and side branches, with plenty of healthy white pistils. The trichomes are starting to become more visible under the light, giving the buds a nice frosty appearance.
Overall, the plants look strong and healthy — dark green leaves, good structure, and no major signs of stress. I did some light defoliation this week to improve airflow and light penetration, especially in the lower areas. This should help the buds develop more evenly.
Humidity and temperature have been kept stable to avoid mold or mildew issues. Feeding has been consistent with bloom nutrients, and I’m keeping an eye on runoff to make sure everything stays balanced.
Had to keep them in veg for another week while something finished up in the flower room. ⏰ cant hurt right. 🤷♂️🏽
did some more cleaning up to prepare them for the flip. ✂️
One more week of flush, the leaves are starting become yellow.
The buds are getting fatter and frosty. Check out the video that i v made.
One more thing fellas, i'v put two graphics showing an experience that i'v made measuring the ph and ec of runoff for some weeks:
1 - About PH: my soil always buffer about 1 pt of ph. Except in the day 08/08 that i made a full flush.
2 - About the EC: You can see in the start of the graphic some peaks. This is beacuse i was alternating between solution and tap water. After that i started aways put the solution in every watering and the graphic become more estable following the concentration of ec until the flush in 08/08.
I dont know exactly why this buffer of ph and ec occurs. I think that it was because i'm recycling the soil over the grows. :]
Next week, HARVESTTTT!
Day 71 - Starting week 11 today and gave her a feeding of nutes. She was pretty thirsty and took almost 2 full gallons of water. I did remove a few more fan leaves today and did check the pH runoff and came down a little bit, sitting right at 7.0. I’m thinking she’s down to the last couple weeks so might give her one more feeding of nutes then flush her out and just give water till the end.
Day 72 - She’s still fattening up more each day and enough that I can notice the difference every time I look at her. I did notice a few leaves towards the top that are starting to fade to an off color so hopefully she’ll hold out and continue to fatten until harvest but I’ll keep an eye on her.
Day 73 - Nothing new to report today, just pulled her out to tuck some leaves and check the trichs. Still quite a bit of clear but some milky in there. Most of the pistils are starting to turn orangish/red. She might be getting down to the last two weeks or so but I’ll let the trichs tell me when she’s ready. Definitely won’t be giving her anymore nutrients, just straight water from here on out.
Day 74 - Nothing new again today, she’s looking and smelling great. I think two weeks tops left. Pistils are almost all shriveled up and an orangish/red color and mostly milky but still a few clear in there. She’ll be ready for some water tomorrow.
Day 75 - Checking the trichs today, she’s actually just about ready to harvest. I gave her a good watering of plain water today and the PPM is down to about 700 right now. I’ll give her a few days to dry out then I will flush her with foxfarm’s Sledgehammer and wait for her to tell me she’s ready.
Had problem since last week with PH. Was down and staying down below 5.0. Managed to sort it and keep it higher for a while to make up the cal mag. Everything seems to have levelled out for our for now. GSC and GG showing stighs of early buds.
Week 9 – Day 65 (Flower Day 35)
🔄 Recap
One of those weeks where everything just works 😎
BioBizz pH+ is finally doing its job:
📈 I’m now able to raise the drain pH by around 0.1–0.2 points – definitely an improvement over Canna pH+.
Other than that, it’s all about the usual routine: watering, observing, and enjoying the view 🙌
🌿 Plant Status – White Widow
📏 Height: 110 cm – stretch is done
❄️ Buds are now visibly starting to frost up
💪 She’s looking healthy and strong – no issues at all
This week, I started using Plagron Green Sensation. Independently of that, the plant began to show slight deficiency symptoms in its foliage. The leaves became increasingly pale, and the tips started to discolor. As far as I understand, one of the components of Green Sensation is potassium. Since then, the plants have been doing significantly better. Growth has also increased considerably. However, the pre-flowering phase is still progressing slowly.Runtz has been an amazing genetic so far. The leaves look absolutely fantastic—healthy and large.Currently, the plant has reached a height of 75 cm, which is quite a lot by my standards, despite the high PPFD values of 600-700 µmol.
This week has went well for one of the plants. the mainlined plant "plant #1" has exploded in size and now dwarfs the single cola plant "plant #2". I also defoliated #2 plant to try and increase how fat it gets.
One weird thing with plant #1 is one of its main colas split on its own, and I did not top it. this can been seen in the video. Don't know why this happened, not angry that it did.
Have also been noticing that plant #2 is very indica like with how compact the plant is. even its nodes are compact vs plant #1 that is more airy and spaced out.
17.7 inches/week
Usual summer week here in the south, every day above 86 ° F (max 100 ° F). By now the main cola is no longer dominant, my Gorilla is unstoppable , the youngest of the batch is grown almost 2 inches per day by drinking 2 gallons per day of spring water showing only few signs of heat stress. She's in full stretch and had fill every spaces with her thick branches. I fed her half the recommended dose of Biobizz Griw 'cause is too hot and don't want to burn her. I think we are 10 days before flowering. I covered her with a PVC net in order to give her a little shield from the sun and give me more privacy ;-)
1.3. - Entering one of the final weeks. Creamatics will be getting pure water from now and Fritters will be feeded at least this week. Buds are looking great, they're smelly and dense 😎
4.3. - Creamatics are almost ready, I will leave them for few more days. Fritters still have one week left at least. Aroma is really strong and I can feel it all over the room. Buds are fat and frosty 🍏 Watered 💧
6.3. - Today was probably last feeding day for Fritters and tomorrow I'm going to harvest the Creamatics as it will be the last day of 10th week. Looking forward to see the results. Watered 💧
7.3. - Week wrap-up: Harvest day for Creamatics! Fritters are still fattening, so I guess they have one more week of flushing left 🍏
1.3. - 7.3. 2024
