March 13, 2023, at 1:30 PM -I hit the plants with their first treated water on the 11th and lowered the light to 18 inches above the canopy. Today’s the 13th and it’s obvious that the plants are responding. The forum Stomper has really taken off and the blood orange haze number one appears to be lagging. Week one ends on 16 March. Later today I’ll water them with some treated water, hopefully. I’ll take a short video and a couple pictures. Reasons for the Forum Stomper’s vigor. ~ it’s in a different pot ~ it has less soil ~ it may be possible that my dogs pissed on the other three plants. 😡 March 14, 2023 at 3:30 PM -So far every day I’ve noticed the difference in the plants. They are definitely growing and developing quickly. The forum Stomper is still outgrowing the other plants. The blood orange haze number one is growing but slower than the rest. I’ll post some more pictures and a video from yesterday and today. March 15, 2023 at 1:33 PM ~ someone left the heater, near the plants, and expose them to 90° temperatures for about 12 hours. Thank goodness the plants aren’t that big because they seem to have actually liked it. I’ll throw up a couple pictures tomorrow. The plants technically are 14 days old on the 16th. March 16, 2023 at 3:27 PM ~Today’s the last day of week one. Watering them with treated water later today.

Well I’m closing this one out. I had a lot of problems with humidity outside and bud rot, in hindsight i read a few reviews in the last few weeks and purple kush is susceptible to bud rot. I did 2 separate harvest, one on the 9th and one on the 14th. I collected everything I could smoke, there is still buds left on the plants but because of bud rot and immature buds I’m saying fuck it. Sonoma seeds quotes 9-10 weeks flower i harvested at week 8 and week 9. I harvested just shy of a pound total, and just over and oz of “purple” looking weed. Between you guys and i, the purple one was pretty shwaggy as far as bud goes. Would i grow this again outdoors? NOPE. Would i try it indoors? You will have to stay tuned for my next grow. If you plan to grow this strain outdoors do not do it. The fact that it’s pretty much 100%indica it does not like to get wet,🤦‍♂️🏻 if you are in the desert, indoors or live in Afghanistan (lineage) go for it. The taste is also not quite what I expected, all the reviews say grapes, but i taste a neutral taste. Some of it smells quite good in the jars but as soon as you smell each bud it smells like spicy woody herb with some dank undertone. Trimming it i had some sort of dank spicy smell i just can’t put my fingers on, except it was all over them. The buzz is “ok”but nothing to knock your socks off with. It is a stimulating feeling followed by a calm “not sleepy” feeling. I haven’t grown many outdoor variety’s but I’m sure most of them turn out the same. I’m waiting for my indoor no name to finish and I can start trying to redeem myself with my leftover seeds, and hopefully get the true quality/if there is, with this purple kush strain. Fall indoor; here i come. Thanks for tagging along. Cheers. Update: decided to make bubble hash with it. Update 2: pressed some hash into some shatter

Well they definitely made progress in the flowering dept over the weekend! I came back home to find a nice amount of bud sites and pistil growth all around. Bubba ya gotten so big it can’t fit under my lights in the tent with fan & filter, so it’s now been moved to the other tent. Kind of fucks with my auto grow I had planned, but not much I can do

Vegetative #22 22/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Foliar Application: Preventive treatment for pests with Neem Oil and Potassium Soap Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.650 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 1.780 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: Today I practiced High-Stress Training with a Super Cropping to the 4 plants only to not stress to much the plants because this week I will perform big defoliation and lollipopping and finally secure all super cropping made before heal completely Now it fixed the nutritional deficit and I finally archive a good EC Run-Off Vegetative #25 25/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30 ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.650 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 1.980 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: I made some maintenance making aggressive defoliation and some lollipopping for preparing all for flowering state. I'm using the new moisture sensors that arrive and for test I extended the dry back to see how it works and how I should using with the Irrigation System. For that reason the Run-Off it getting higher but not to much concern... One of my surprise was the response of the plants is start to made more flowering spots like how Crop Steering say... For me it the first time I try to apply this technique of course is not in professional way but to me is a good approach to now how to use it. Vegetative #28 28/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30 ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Everest in Soil = 11ml Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.780 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 2.2 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: I need to do again a good defoliation, the plants are now huge... Now its time to change the photoperiod because could be a problem if a delay more and will be the first two days of October... I had a pretty high EC in the Run-Off not huge deal the plants can handle very good I will down the nutrition in the next watering for avoid some time of lockout or toxicity. Vegetative #30 30/September/25. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nutrition: Parameter of the week 1.650 μS/cm EC I start with softwater around to 0.060 EC CALiMAGic = 11ml to 660 μS/cm EC Canna Coco A&B up 30ml to 1.650 μS/cm EC Everest in Soil = 11ml Total Solution 10 L Watering: I watered my plants with a solution with the following inputs and outputs pH = 5.8 EC = 1.780 μS/cm Input Total Solution 13 L Solution = 3.25 L each Run-Off = 1.840 μS/cm pH Run-Off = 6.5 Volume Run-Off = 3000ml between 22% Observations: Today is the last day of veg. For the flowering period I will be more strict on feed methodology now I become to watering every day with sightly increasing EC in every to fertigation to archive the EC week target as soon as possible...

Buenas a tod@s.... Última semana de estas preciosas niñas, se han vuelto demasiado grandes, cogollos duros como el acero y pesdos como rocas... Entre hoy y mañana ya le doy el último riego con agua sola y después corte y a secar, con la calma... Cómo cada cultivo es hermoso ver crecer estás plantas, aunq las variedades son las mismas son muy diferentes q, como los hermanos o los dedos de la mano... Me pone contento y al mismo tiempo triste terminar con ellas, pero para eso están... Espero q les halla gustado el proceso de mi humilde crecimiento, espero sacar buen gramaje y llegar a un buen número, el próximo diario ya será de cosecha... Buenos humos para todos... Un saludo... 💨🙏🏻💪🏻🤗 😎💀🇦🇷🤝🏻🇪🇦

I had a busy week. I updated my 4" exhaust fan to a Cloudline 6" booster exhaust fan and a bigger carbon filter. I also added another mini-fan that can oscillate and I had to add a heater. Why you ask? Because I got a CO2 tank from a friend and it is recommended to have temps in between 85-95 degrees. Granted I could have used it three weeks ago but better late than never. I have a nice CO2 monitor inside the chamber and I use the internal video camera to watch the readings. I have also added some HydroGuard to help the roots. They are slightly brown and another grower recommended it. Daphni continues to grow well and has maintained her dark green color. She has also started to make pistils and they are starting to form into buds just three days after first pistil sighting. I can smell her now too. latest readings are Air Temp = 79F, Humidity = 42%, PPM = 1810, pH = 5.9. Concerning my roots, I put a black trash bag over the top of the reservoir to keep as much light out as possible. The reservoir is tan and white and I think light was getting thru.

Veg day 36.- Happy girls seeing the sun for the first time. Additional soil mix is same as before. BX promix and perlite 2:1. Additional volcanic ash and worm castings. First watering was generic AB 1/4 strength, Rhizotomic and Mammoth P microbes. PH adjusted to 6.3 300ppm. Veg day 42 - after a week of wind and weather for the first time both seem to be acclimatizing well enough. A squirrel seems to like digging. Any suggestions for critter deterent?

Hey Cannafam, Its been a mixed week here in the UK, the first half was consistant 20c and nice sunny weather but the past few days have been a bit chilly for her down to 16c cloudy, some rain and windy. At the beginning of the week i transplanted into a gallon fabric pot with 2/3 plagron royal mix and 1/3 canna coco, throughout the mix ive used dynomyco and some also in the transplanting hole. Around the pot is copper tape and on the surface wool pelletts, both of these are meant to deter slugs/snails who are the main UK plant enemy and hopefully this will be enough! Although i was really careful when transplanting the soil very quickly crumbled away and i was a bit rough with her by accident. I was worried abput transplant shock but she seems to be ok 🤞 Ive also moved her to her final home which is the disused drained pond that i use every year, the recess keeps them out of sight and it gets the sun for most of the day. Overall she looks happy and the next couple of leaf stages are gettin ready to shoot out 😊 Thats all from me this week, thanks for stopping by 😊✌️

8/4/17 Calling this Flower but still feeding late veg nutes until stretch is over. Feeding every other day is indeed a labor savor, just over 30 minutes to water and vacuum as long as everything is pre PHed and prepared. I bought a pressure sprayer to more evenly water, but it won't work as it took about 20 minutes to water 1 plant with 1.5 gallon.s Not efficient enough, sadly. Lights are moving up once or twice a day. The time lapse camera will have to be adjusted as the tent is becoming overgrown. We have pre flowers everywhere, and Kush is 1st to flower. A couple other flowers forming, but oddly not any on the auto speed buds. I bought a dehumidifier to deal with lights out and post watering humidity spikes, and it said it had a pump so I could pump the water into a bucket outside the tent, but it apparently is just gravity. Between all my gear and the newly expanding canopy, it is starting to get crowded in the tent. I may have to return it, but I really don't want to as the size has it fit right where I need it. I think I found out what was eating my plant leaves. It was me. I accidently hit a leaf on Reek'N today with the shop vac while I was cleaning the runoff and it tore the end off a leaf and looked identical to the damage seen last week. On 1 hand, this is good news as we are still pest free (knock on wood), but on the other hand, I was careless with my girls. Shame on me. I will be much more careful in the future. I( am noticing what might be nute burn on some leaf tips on a few plants. I have not increased the PPMs since going to an every other day feeding, and am getting consistently more runoff than I was getting, PPMs of runoff are mostly around under 200 more than I am putting in, so the frequency must be burning them. I may back off one day and see what that does and adjust the schedule as needed. I could use the break, too ;) As long as they are stretching, they get Veg nutes, then a feeding or 2 of transition, then start flower nutes. Getting nute burn prior to changing PPMs was probably a good thing to alert me to back off the frequency of the feeding a bit, since they liked this PPM before with no complaints when feedings were spaced further apart. 8/5/17 They did not feed today as I am still monitoring the minor nute burn. I am starting to think, since I did not raise my nutes, that this nute burn is the result of me slowly lowering humidity to reach flowering VPD, in which case, the lower RH is causing the plants to transpire more and take up more nutes, hence the very minor nute burn I am seeing. I didn't consider the humidity to be a variable until a few minutes ago, but that would likely explain the issue. If so, I am pleased I got so close to optimal nutes that a variation of 5-10% less RH would cause this and concerned with recalibrating feed to this. It's a learning experience, tho, fo sho. They are still happily growing tho, I have had to raise my lights twice in the last 24 hours and anticipate moving them up once more today, so I guess I am still mostly giving them what they want. The Kush is the tallest at just over 22 inches. The Mango Cream, the shortest at just over 14 inches. I may have to destroy time lapse continuity to better match heights with lights as in full flower, they move to around 12 inches (they have been at 18 inches through veg). I likely won't be too aggressive on light placement both for spread and to avoid light burn in flower. We shall see. 8/6/17 LMFAO I am starting to look for a home for 2 of the Auto Speed Buds. Nothing against them in particular, but I may need to make room and I have 3 of them and only 1 of every other strain. Things are going a bit bonkers in the tent and unless I want to see them fight to the death, I may have to make room. I will monitor things and decide. What I thought was burn might actually be a def. I have consulted on a forum and have been persuaded to up my ppm at the same ratios. It makes more sense than burn, tbh, so I am going to go for it, new measurements to come, first feeding with new ppm tomorrow. Going to go 50% stronger in late stage veg and see how they respond, and perhaps will pick up the every other day feeding again. 8/7/17 New feeding based on slight def, full strength GH base nutes, EC 1.6, PH with white vinegar to 5.7 FloraMicro 5 ML gal FloraGro 5 ML gal FloraBloom 2.5 ML gal CalMagic 2.5 ML Gal Armor SI 1 ML gal Roots Excelerator 0.5 ML Gal Drip Clean .5 ML Gal Photosynthesis Plus 3 ML gal SM-90 2.5 ML gal Ful-Potential 2.5 ML gal FloraBlend 2.5 ML gal Floralicious 1ML gal 1.79 EC after nutes and additives cross your fingers that it is not too hot Soon move to transition nutes, drop Roots Excelerator and add FloraNectar So the plants were drier than I anticipated and the PPMs coming out were LESS than going in! I think the bump in nutrients was a good idea. We will see how these five handle it. 8/8/17 Just fed the other 5 full nutes, no trace of burn on yesterday's group. Light still going up twice a day. I am finding it very difficult to water and handle the Auto Speed Bud #1 in the center. The canopy is QUITE thick. The Kush is now over 10 cm taller than the breeder estimated for an indoor at over 70 cm. I am going to continue to feed every other day until they force me to feed every day. I am also going to continue with Veg nutes next feeding. 8/9/17 still growing, keeping the new full dose feeding. Will likely start upping the GH additives too. Kush is now over 80 cm. 8/10/17 As we wrap up week 6, Kush is getting close to 90cm, 50% taller than expected. 2 of the SPeed Buds are still in preflower, oddly. Everyone is healthy and getting huge. Having issues watering the plants in the middle because of the thickness of the canopy. Last night my Raspberry Pi got into a boot loop. Since I run the time lapse with that, I have to do an emergency new setup to get the time lapse rolling again. I am putting together a tutorial to make one yourself and will have info when it is completed. There will be some disruption to the time lapse from thi missing time period, but honestly, I have been having to move the camera up so often because of the growth it will likely not matter much. The plants are so big, I may push the next feeding past GH recommendations. Most people advise not to go anywhere near that, but the plants are so big and thriving so well and already got a bit of a def, I want to see if I can push them a little more by late flower. I have given full strength nutes and GH additives today to 5 of them, so will monitor and likely increase base trio ppms if all goes well.

Giorno 70 Tutte le piante sono state raccolte e tra un mese aggiornerò il diario con le foto delle cime essicate. Sono molto contento perché certi odori mi hanno colpito e non vedo l'ora di sentirli in fumata. Grazie a chi ha commentato e ha lasciato un like. Un altro giro è appena iniziato. Ci vediamo di là 💪🖐️❤️

3 bpp been in dark period for 3 days last week to try and push out bit more resin and thc , heard it can slightly increase both by stressing the plant of light in final stage before chop. So she is all Flushed, chopped and drying this week 👌😎🔥🔥🔥 Finally 2 more on Overdrive 2ml pl and next onto the flushing. Had to tie 1 plant to the tent because of the weight of colas. The plant literally looked like it was on drugs doing a full curve lol and about to snap! Will be flushing this week Other big bpp in 7 gallon is still going mad! Hench nuggies and smells amazing! 🙌 Waiting now for the leaves to turn yellow and then we're into flushing stage ....for a second time. Update 29/01/25 Drying tent has been at around 65-68 humidity and 20degrees I've taken most big leaves of now and left buds covered abit with small leaves for abit of protection and slow the drying down abit. Aiming for 7-10 days slow as possible for best results and retain the weight! So tempted to try one now but it Will ruin it Not long now 💨💨💨
