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!

Week 9 commence flushing. This lady is looking great, super frosty, sticky and got a sweet aroma. Removed some dying leaves and now we wait for chop in about 6-7 days.

After defoliating both Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants after week 11 they now develop more and amore flower clusters, since the light can penetrate deeper int the canopy now. The plants are producing trichomes like crazy, even the bigger sugar leaves are covered in them! VERY FROSTY PLANTS! The flower clusters clearly form colas now along all side branches and both plants fill up nicely. The smell is now strong and sweet with a clear peach aroma to it, it makes me smile every time I look into the tent. The plants love the Advanced Nutrients feeding schedule and are getting the recommended dose every watering.

11/24: Both Black Jacks finally turned the corner and are looking like they'll produce for me.👍 The big Zkittlez just keeps on stretching and outpacing most of the other plants....looks like a supercropping is in her immediate future. Kinda sux, because she's got picture-perfect, textbook, conifer structure😑 11/25: Had to raise the lights today about 5 inches to accommodate the big Zkittlez and a Sucrose Overdose..couldn't bring myself to ugly her up yet..maybe everybody else will catch up (ya right) For now, I'm using platforms of various heights for the shorter plants, to keep the canopy level.

Week 12, Day 83 from seed and 3rd day of flower.....The 5 day of this week officially marked the start of the flowering season!! So I flushed both of these bad boys with ph'd water for two days and then today I switched them to 12/12. I gave them their first dose of bloom nutrients and then lollipoped them as you can see, pixs . Grateful no issues to report for the past 3 weeks have been trouble-free!! I'm going to leave the MH bulb in for an additional 2 weeks to prevent any stretching before switching to the HPS. But so far they are still loving their environment. I'm also in the process of keeping clones of fat banana and hulkberry while i try this new strain of Peanut Butter Tree.

Well as always This week has brought some amazing growth and all that stickiness and dankiness is finally coming in !!! The Kosher Kush #2 (very front) is definitely a little bit ahead in bud development the smell on this plant is remarkably similar to the CANDYLAND strain it has a very sweet/ OG KUSH smell to it .. best words to descrine it would be a sweet sterling silver kush smell lol! The WASHING MACHINE’s are also starting to get their smell and you can just feel how sticky the nugs are going to be already makes your fingers stick together.. the smell off of this one is remarkably similar to Girl Scout cookies!! And you can already see the zombie look of the buds ! And finally the BLUEBERRY is smelling fantastic like a walk through a field of berries and strawberries and orange hairs are already popping out ! I had to do some HST to her but she came back by the next light cycle ! Well anyways guys im super excited for this harvest I know this is going to be some beautiful smoke 🌸🌹 ~ GARCIAS’S GARDEN P.s.

Day 70 of flower, the leaves are starting to fade thanks to the flush. If some Amber trichomes shows up i Will chop next week at day 77, by now the trichomes are almost all cloudy. The smell Is citrus-like and very strong. Dulcis in fundu i expect an heavy yield by the cookies looking at those buds.

May 22nd - pH 6.1, PPM 1310, 2.6 EC, 85/75f, 47% humidity - late water change, around midnight, probably will add more CALiMAGic when I go to check the water later today (the 23rd), just very scared to have it turn cloudy af on me again and ruin the whole thing lol. May 23rd - pH 6.2, PPM 1650, 3.7 EC, 78/70f, 44% humidity - increased the amount of CALiMAGic, Micro, and Purpinator in the bucket, nutrients list updated to reflect, noticing some clawing, its either wind burn or nitrogen toxicity I'd guess. update: can't be wind burn, they're not going fast enough. don't really know what is up with those few clawing leaves just hope more don't happen. May 24th - Unable to get data this day. May 25th - pH 4.0(??) -> 6.2, PPM 2080, 4.2 EC, 82/69f, 47% humidity - Didn't get info yesterday, woke up before work to adjust plant and found it super low in pH? Pen stopped being calibrated so I pH'd to 6.0ish before I left and then recalibrated the pen when I got home and pH'd to 6.2. PPM is climbing, but the water level is going down too, will add more water tomorrow. May 26th - pH 6.0 -> 6.4, PPM 2100, 4.2 EC, 81/68f, 46% humidity - pH'd up to 6.2-6.5 range, noticed little rust spots. May 27th - Unable to get data this day. May 28th - pH 6.6 -> 6.1, PPM 2180, 4.4 EC, 81/72f, 38% humidity - pH'd down into range. Did some defoliation today, took a lot from the lower and middle 'cause 360° light. Added less than half a gallon of tap water.

I am very happy with bloom. The plants are showing some amber trichomes very early. Some of it may be from bruising from me reaching over them?

This week in my grow room has been full of developments. First, I added additional lights because I couldn't get the relative humidity (RH) under control. I ordered a dehumidifier, but it will take a few weeks to arrive, so I had to find a temporary solution. I also emptied the reservoir and refilled it with fresh water and nutrients. I secured the net to ensure it stays in place under tension. In two days, I plan to switch the light schedule to 12/12, hoping the plants will stretch a bit during the switch to avoid having overly large buds that aren't evenly spread. Seventeen hours later, I decided to keep the lights on a 16/8 schedule for a few more days. The plants are starting to show signs of something happening, so I want to see how they develop. I will keep you updated on the progress. Then, I received a message from my supplier that the dehumidifier would arrive today. Great news—time to spice things up! On June 2nd, the dehumidifier arrived, and I managed to get my Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) to 1.17! This is fantastic news, and I'm very curious how this will affect water usage. The dehumidifier seems pretty powerful, with water literally dripping out of the hose, so I'm no longer worried about high humidity levels. It's a shame it doesn't have a range setting, but I couldn't expect more for the price. I'm considering ordering the Dimlux Auxbox to set a working range and separate day/night settings. Thankfully, the dehumidifier has an auto-restart function after a power loss. On June 3rd, the night is over, and while my values are now more stable, I haven't noticed any significant differences in water absorption. What I do notice is that the pots seem much drier. The difference in leaf temperature compared to the room temperature has increased slightly, now about a 2˚C difference, indicating that evaporation has increased somewhat. Despite the dehumidifier cooling the air, the room temperature has risen. This is explainable since dry air heats up faster than humid air. The CO2 heater is also running significantly longer. So, although there are no immediately visible differences, there are indeed some changes. Today is the last short night of 8 hours, and tomorrow will be the first night of 12 hours. I am contemplating doing a 10-hour night first and will decide later tonight. After closely reviewing the video footage, I noticed some divergent colors on the leaves. My pH is currently 6.4, which I had adjusted to compensate for the low pH last week—a foolish decision in coco, I know. I plan to make videos of each individual plant for my records to investigate further. The light is too intense to inspect them up close, so the videos will help me get a better look.
