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.

On day 1 things are going well. The buds are getting larger by the day and I'm starting to smell the terps. This is an interesting one, I can't figure it out just yet but there seems to be grapefruit in the background at least. I also did my last defoliation to bring in more light to the canopy. On day 3 the girls are doing well. My PH pen broke so I'm back to indicator drops until amazon hooks me up with a new probe. On day 4 the plants are doing well. I applied my final BTI treatment. The fungus gnat population is way down and almost completely eradicated. The girls are putting on more trichs everyday and the smell is increasing :) On day 5 I see no more fungus gnats :) I should receive my PH pen tomorrow and will finally be able to adjust my reservoirs pH with more precision. On day 6 the plants are doing well. On day 7 my new PH pen was ready for use. I discovered my reservoir got down to 5.5 PH yikes! I used PH up to get the PH to 6.1. I then changed out my reservoir with new nutrients. I PH'ed to 6.1

Well, what we feared, became a reality, one of the regular XTrakush plants is a male. This is why I planted two and I'm happy it seems to be only the one. But with the canopy going nice and full it hurt to get it out. Of course, I hoped to have two females but nature went its course. Considered leaving it in, to pollinate the others, or keeping it somewhere, but I do not have the space or light for it. Thus with pain in my gut, I went about getting her out. I notice a nice developed root system, very healthy, which was very hard to get loose. After shaking the soil off I have a rootball the same size as after my whole grow last time. I could lift the whole 57 ltr bag by lifting the plant. Sturdy stem, thick solid branches. This is what I was aiming for and it works. The soil again is proving itself to be a winner. The light this low gives some higher temps as expected, but manageable within ranges. The SP-3000 is performing really well and I cant wait to see the bud development coming weeks. I'm sure it will deliver a great amount of bigger buds looking at all the flower sites and the thick branches that support them. Remember to check in on www.mars-hydro.com, they have awesome deals now for Black Friday! I'm giving more water now, once in two days instead of three. They seem to need it with the higher temps. The plants seem to take the light well on only 45 cm. I've started adding the BAC Organic Bloom Nutrition. It is designed to work with the microorganisms I added with the micro life. With this I do a little bit of Calmag, but not so much, since I don't see any evidence of shortages, again proving my soil is dialed in for growing under LED perfectly. All in all, even with a minor setback, all is ready to pull in a mega harvest. Thanks for checking in again!! Hug Bud & Sunshine.

Hello guys😍😍 Fifth week of growth. Last week, the plants were a little shocked after topping, but after a few weeks they returned to normal growth. To reduce this shock, I used BioEnhancer fertilizer. And this week I checked the roots. The pots are ready to be Transplat.Thank you for following my project. 🌷farah4weed🌷

* ********* Week 10 - June 13 to 19, 2020 - Days 64 to 70 from germination *********** * Adding in the pictures for now......... GSC has had a good week but also a slow week like the other girls growing right now. Her buds are plentiful and the hairs are long and white........she just isn’t filling in as she should.......and I suspect wants to........damn pH issues are persisting with her as well. She was transplanted into plastic pots but her runoff numbers are still over 7 while max going in was roughly 6.0.🤬🤬 This is true for both the GSC girls. They received a 25L flush of 3.7pH water this week and that bearly pulled down the pH to 6.7??? GSC2 is paying a price and it sucks but there are always trade offs in life😃 She wants to be in 82 degrees and a 65 percent humidity but she is in with girls wanting 70’s and 50’s😢😢😢 Her leaves have become very dark green and brown spotting with further lockout issues. Her buds have very white hairs and we will keep on the same path. GSC has filled up the tent and with the controllers and other light in place she has been in a perfect environment of 82 degrees and 63 percent humidity. With the little SP-150 and the HLG she has roughly 280 watts to keep her swelling and firming up. By the end of the week she is showing signs of improvement and buds are gaining weight again!!!! The frost coming out on GSC has been very very impressive so far!! The high pH will hurt the yield but she appears as though the buds will be sticky👍 Have to run these girls again in a proper environment......I really want to see her potential realized. The big buds are in there......just not as visible this run😃 Fast Buds girls have been really solid and very impressive!!!!! Little more detail............ June 13/20 - Day 64 - AM feeding - plain tap water adjusted to 5.1 pH....275ppm - 2L for GSC and 1L for GSC2 - PM feeding - Overdrive, Rezin, Vitathrive @ 2ml, Liquid Wt, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml, CalMag @ 1.5ml = 1450ppm - GSC took 4.5L and GSC2 took 2.5L - runoff numbers in the pots before feed was 1700ppm and 7.1pH.......WTF? - brown spotting on leaves so increasing CalMag. - tent dialled in and hold temps and humidity now. June 14/20 - Day 65 - letting the pots dry out a little more so can give a flush to work on reducing pH, - both girls had a good night and swelled more. June 15/20 - Day 66 - big flush day......each girl given 26L flush of water pH to 5.0 - striving to get them down to the 6.1 range....... - they are still going to be fed but pH will be lowered. June 16/20 - Day 67 - mixed 7L of water with Overdrive, Terpinator @ 2ml, Vitathrive, Liquid Wt, Rezin, CalMag, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml = 1400ppm and pH to 4.0 - GSC given 4.5L and GSC2 took 2.5L - Moved another light in this tent to increase wattage. - Added sugar and yeast CO2 to this tent now as well. - GSC2 looking really good today.....leaves up and happy. June 17/20 - Day 68 - mixed 8L water with Rhinoskin @ 1ml, Terpinator @ 2.5ml, Overdrive, CalMag @ 2ml, Vitathrive, Liquid Wt, Rezin, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml = 1450ppm and 4.1pH - GSC took 5L and GSC2 took 3L.......there was fair bit of runoff, - GSC buds getting bigger and nice color in the leaves. - GSC2 looks taller and leaves up😀 June 18/20 - Day 69 - only GSC fed today,,.,..,.,5L with Terpinator @ 3ml, Overdrive, CalMag @ 2ml, Vitathrive, Liquid wt, Rezin, Dual Fuel @ 1.5ml = 1475ppm and pH to 4.5 - GSC only took 3L though so will keep the other 2L for tomorrow. - for the most part left them alone today. - letting GSC2 dry out for a day. June 19/20 - Day 70 - GSC fed the 2L of mixture left from yesterday. - GSC2 given 1L mixture of Rezin, Liquid Wt, Sensyzime @ 2ml = 385ppm and 4.5pH. - GSC is a BEAST! Stacking her buds and filling in her colas👍💪 - GSC2 is really happy today!

Swapped blue for the red CFL. Adding 1ml bloom per litre. Few tips are yellow think its having the light too close but only time will tell. All 3 plants have entered flowering stage. Due to the small grow space the plant that is directly under the LED is growing at a faster rate compared to the plant that's under the CFL

Things are looking good. Another thing I learned on this batch, SOAK the rockwool a few days before, so the water can drain out. My problem, and did it before, but have better control this time. The problem is I soak the rockwool, then the clones are drowning in the cubes because they are so wet, and take a week to begin to dry out. Just gave them water, so they ben drying for over a week, with no water, thus no fresh oxygenated water. Also as you will see in the video, I added new QB288 lights. There on a 480-1750b, so I need to start with 3 at 3000, and will be buying 2 more, 1 at 4000 and another at 3000, thus will have 5 QB 288 in a 4x4 :)

WEEK 7/4F // D43/22F - D49/28F Der Mainbud fängt an die drei oberen Knospen nebeneinander auszubilden und nicht so wie die üblich übereinander. Bei der Gelato daneben das gleiche. Ist aber nicht weiter wild. Das hatte die GorillaZkittlez im letzten Jahr auch und hat sich trotzdem super entwickelt und geschmeckt. Das einzige was negativ ist, ist die erhöhte Schimmelgefahr. Bisher macht die Guava einen super fitten Eindruck. Die unteren vier Seitentriebe wurden mit Bindedraht an der Stange in der Mitte befestigt das die Triebe bei starkem Wind und dicker werdenden Buds etwas gestützt sind. Zwei Bilder von der Gelato sind auch mit dabei. Die entwickelt auch unnormal viele Blüten. Das sind auch die Genetiken bei denen ich mir am wenigsten Gedanken wegen Mehltau oder Schimmel mache. Im letzten Jahr wo mir einiges weggeschimmelt ist und auch einige einen ordentlichen Mehltaubefall hatten, sind die Gelato, die Guava und auch die GorillaZkittlez und Gorilla ohne Probleme durchgekommen. Deswegen werden auch nur diese Genetiken auf den Balkon kommen. Bei der GorillaCookies mache ich mir auch keine großen Gedanken. Gegossen wurde an Tag 43/22F, an Tag44/23F, an Tag45/24F, an Tag48/27F und an Tag49/28F. An den Tagen gab es ca 1L-1.2L. Der Topf wird vor dem gießen leicht angehoben um zu abzuschätzen wie viel die Dame benötigt. Temperatur Tag: 22-28°C Nacht: 13-19°C Höhe 84cm

Purple Chill aka Penny was easy to grow. She was medium height 26 inches. Stem structure was weak. Many stems bent (repaired with splints and masking tape) and some broke off. She suffered from heat stress and also showed cal-mag deficiency.

I had to take a big decision. I know it is not good it is way too hot in the tent but needed to remove from my garden because of some reasons. Firstly, illegal which is fine but I do not want to take a risk for 3 g of harvest. She should start flowering in autumn when less sun and weather is basically shitty here in London it is okay to grow but when starts flowering.... so I planted an auto and saw that it wont yiled good so I was thinking what will happend to my Zkittlez in autumn when mush less sun and weather is going down. So realised I can have a 2-3 m plant but it ain't gonna flower just a bit. Soni decided to put under artificial light but it is summer my plants are suffering in the tent. Inhave no choice I will try to manage maximum I will cut back. Hopefully all goes ok. Day 86: Fucked up she was totally wilt I removed all the leaves basically the stalk left only..... she will be okay

Day 29: Low VPD due to shitty weather....... about 0.8 kPa at 23C. Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.9; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 30: Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.8; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 31: Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.9; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 32: Did a little defoliation - just cut a few odd lookin' fanleafs and some smaller foliage at the bottom of the stem. 65g total. Further i keep opening the canopy by moving some shoots to the next square of the net Still watering daily. Plant 3 is way thirstier and bigger than the others. Plant 2 spills out the largest amounts of drain...... but she's not far behind them other girls. Had to crank up the vent to get humidity out..... i'll keep defoliating carefully - that'll help it ;-) Day 33 & 34: Now they really wanna get tall...... since they so bushy, it's a bit tricky to feed them to the 'right' next square in the net....... LST-wise i have to admit, it would have been better to 'open' the canopy by binding the shoots down, instead of just flatten it out, by supercropping. Though it produces a lot of growth, it's kind of a chaos - hard to organize and almost impossible to open up for more light. Huge fanleafs pushing out everywhere. Plenty of foliage in the lower canopy - it's a mess somehow😶 Numbers in the drain are fine now (about 6.5; 1.2) so i'll start feeding nutrients again. Day 35: Fed nutrients - PH 6.4; EC 1.1 Drain (avg.): pH 6.3; EC 1.8 i'm taking out some leafs of different sizes - just a few at a day...... so there will be a bit more light and air over time...... Plans for week 6: - Organize canopy/scrog - carefully take leafs out - keep checking for nutrient levels
