Using some Neem oil and hydrogen peroxide ONLY ON MEDIUM (since I'm in flower), to get rid of these dumb fungus gnats I think they are the reason for the brown spots forming on the leaves. Installed a trellis this week to help spread out the canopy and improve airflow, however when I did this my dumbass accidentally snapped one of the colas, luckily I think it'll be ok because it seems to have only snapped the outer skin layer on only one side of that stem (I wrapped a piece of duct tape around the little snap to help secure it). This week went well I think I've got the fungus gnats under control, the stem I partially snapped still looks to be completely healthy and growing well so no complaints here successful 2nd week of flower👍🏾

Plant 3's buds are really bulking up comparted to the rest. They are more square topped buds than the rest that are Christmas tree shaped. I'm keeping an eye on the trichomes. They are looking nice. Harvest is almost here!!!

6/15. Glad I listened to my intuition and held off watering. IT Rained andctheb again last night. Plants seem to be doingvreal well. Slight burn on lower leaves where it was before from being in the garage and I found on spot that LOOKED like it could've been caused by a pillar but it's right on a burn. I sefoliated one leaf. This is minor stuff. Next watering I'll be adding silica. I'm not giving nutes until the plants tell the need them. The 3 gallon ones may receive nutes first as they'll run out. I'll update as I progress. Went back over at 8:30. It's just overcast with showers. Plants seemed to like it. They all look good. Noticed a chunk out of a leaf and a POSSIBLE pillar spot. I'm going to have to get the BT out and and give the girls an application. I'm waiting until they settle in a bit more though. I need to start LST as well AND the light dep. Unfortunately "life" has made things difficult. I'll get back over there today though and I'll start the light dep. Kinda makes me wonder though. The 1pth planet I wanted to light deo is tge same size as the others in the much bigger containers. The thought came that maybe I should just hold on to them as extras in case something happens. I also am going to start silica next watering but it will be a few weeks before any nutes are given. UPDATE: WENT BACK OVER AT FIVE AND TOOK ACSHOT TON OF PICTURES. IM TRYING TO UOLOAD NOW. THINGS ARE POPPING OFF AND IM GETTING A NICE SWEET SKUNKY ODOR. WHILE I WASCTHERE WE GOT A QUICK SHOWER. DIDNT LAST MORE THAN TEN MINUTES BUT IT RAINED HARD. I FOUND A TEMPORARY SPOT TO LIGHT DEP THE TWO PURPLE PUNCH AND THE ONE TENTH PLANET. I DONT SEE ANY LIGHT LEALS AND ITS SURE AS HELL DARKER THAN IT IS AT NIGHT. I'LL SEE HOW IT GOES LEQVING THE COVER ON ALL NIGHT. IF IT DOESNT WORK I MAY JEED TO ADD A FAN OR CHANCECTHE SPACE. I ALMOST DIDNT WANT TO DO THIS AS THE 10TH PLANET IS KEEPING PACE WITH ITS SISTERS, DESPITE THE SMALLER POT. OH WELL I WANT TO GIVE IT A SHOT AND I DONT WANT MY CAGE OVER CROWDED. I'M LOOKONG TO DO A 6:30 TO 6:30 SCHEDULE. 6/16 First night of light dep for the three little ones. I won't be able to call them that soon. I'm currently trying to upload a video. My grow buddy mentioned the droopiness of a couple of my plants in this video and how I hadn't been watering. This kinda scared me so I ran over and checked the too few inches on the two that had a little droop and came out dry. I had some water already phed ready to go (I'm hoping that the ph doesn't change if it's stored a day or two) and used the gallon to moisten the dry topsoil. Looking back over my diary we have had nothing but rain. I then tried the "lift the pot method" and came to the conclusion that these bags were indeed still holding moisture. I assumed they would be considering the thunderstorms we've had. I held off on fullt watering because the weather said the next dry day is going to be Monday. Today is Friday so thats two solid days of rain. Three if you count today through the night. I concentrated my watering of the one gallon on the couple plants that appeared to droop. If it doesn't rain like they say it will I will need to water. I need to set up a decent watering schedule but I need it to hold off raining long enough to do so. UPDATE: I WENT BACK OVER AND PUT THE 3 GALS IN FOR BED AND CHECKED OUT THE REST OF THE GARDEN. I WATERED THE 3 GAL GIRLS A LITTLE MORE SINCE THEY WONT BE OUTSIDE. THE BIT OF WATER I GAVE SEEMED TO HELP LIFT SOME OF THE GIRLS. AT LEAST I THINK IT DID. THE RAIN SHOULDVE COME ALREADY. I WOULDVE WATERED MORE HAD THE BAGS NOT BEEN SO HEAVY. 6/17 Rained all night which is good. Brought the three transplants out but left them under the overhang so they. Dont get soaked. So far light depoing is going good. Well its only been two nights but we'll see. I'll update as I go. Not feeling well today. Went back over and checked on the plants and did a video. Probably won't get uploaded until tomorrow. I'm giving it a shot. It's raining in good shape. Plants looked fine when I was there. I need to get my supports and my trellis in place. Video won't upload. No suprise. I'll get it tomorrow. 6/18 Uploaded videos if they fuck up from me editing I'm gonna be pissed. Anyway it's still pouring with high winds. I added a couple supports where it looked like it needed it. I need to put my trellis up. I've been able to keep up with the light dep and those plants haven't been used and abused. They stay in the building facing the sun when the weather is this bad. I think they're looking great. I may start a new diary just for them. Sun came out around four. Trying to upload a couple videos but doesn't look like it's going to happen. Tucked the three little ones in at six. It had stopped raining and the wind died down some. If adverse conditions create good plants then I'm on the way to a great harvest. Minor bleaching and burns on a few lower fan leaves and some wrinkling on some from wind burn other than that plants seem to be acclimated. Did a video but will have to wait until tomorrow to upload 6/19 It's not raining! We got four inches this past storm lol. Having the bags raised on pollens I believe has greatly helped. As did the high winds that help dry the soil in the bag. Had to add a few temporary supports. Light dep is going good. Adjusted amd found a better spot. I'm considering getting "pool noodles" or some other thing like a Hulu hoops or pvc pipe and making either a frame on the roof for the entire cage or on top of each individual plants posts so I could roll clear plastic over it when it rains. I'm thinking about later on in the fall when this could really help. I found a roll of plastic. Also thought about putting that up on the back wall but I didn't. What I'm doing right now is working. I just need to keep up with it. I also need a solid watering schedule to stick too. It's hard when each plants needs are different. Oh well. I'm just happy to be growing again. I pray to the cannabis gods and the Lord above himself that I'm not plagued with the problems of last year. 6/20. I'm sick as fuck but I got the little girls out in the sun. Light dep is going good. Plants look great. I'll update when I feel better and if I do anything. Still feel like shit. Luckily I looked up just in time to get to the grow and put the little ones to bed. They were thirsty (especially the bushy 10th planet so I gave them about 3/4 of a gallon of water. Got lots of run off from 10th planet. Didn't notice as much from the others but I was hurrying. I'll upload later. Still sick. 6/21 Plants seem to be doing great. I removed some lower growth on a few just to see how they respond. I'm going to do some defoliation down low and I want to see how the plants respond. I'm planning my first full watering Thursday as we have a real good stretch of weather after that. Grow bags are still heavy as hell so they have sufficient water. I'll be adding silica nextcl watering. Not time for nutes but I think it would be okay to start the silica and in another week I might start small doses of nutes. The light dep on the little girls is go8ng great! It's cool I'll get to sample some of these strains before fall. I'll update after I do something. Tucked the girls in at 6. I might need to think about transplanting that 10th planet in the 3 gallon. I watered until runoff yesterday and it's light as hell today. Plus I fimked it and it's bushy as hell. I've Bern turning it si it gets all angles of the sun. I have a bag of 707 left and a 5 gallon bucket with holes drilled all over it like an air pot and a ten gallon grow bag. This will take some thought. Hot af today. I wad able to lift the grow bags so I decided tomorrow will be the girls first real watering. I think I'll be adding silica and possibly kelp me kelp you due to the heat stress I've been noticing. Nothing bad just a few tacoed leaves. I've had several people that have seen my grow in person tell me that this is by far the healthiest (not biggest I've had bigger) but by farcthe healthies5 crop I've grown. They believe I'll have my best year ever this year. I hope they are right. Vid won't be uploaded until tomorrow. 6/22 WATERED TODAY. I'm still a little gun shy with watering. That fusarium last year pretty much traumatized me. I left the container plants alone. I gave them a little water but not enough to do much. I used a pump sprayer on a mist setting and went one by one and back around gently watering the entire medium. This took forever and I'll be finding a different way to water. I hope this was enough water. I'll check later on and if they look like they want more I give it to them. I started LST on the light dep 10th planet and tucked some branches of a another under the tomato cage. I had missed that earlier. I also went around and cleaned up the bottoms on most. Getting rid of things that will amount to nothing. I noticed what looked like thrip damage on ONE leaf on ONE plant. I also saw a chunk missing from a grasshopper bite and a finger of a fan leaf petiol was broken so I'm going to need to get my ipm up and running. I'm unsure whether I'll be using chemicals or predators. Probably BT and spinosad. That's what I've had the best luck with. I also noticed bottom leaves dying off on the bottom of a couple plants. It was where the burns were though so I'm almost 100% its just related to the light burns they got when i first put them up. I'll be updating the diary as I do more stuff.

This plant is growing very rapidly. Many of side branches due to tie down technique and all of them are same height. Very promising. Now I see signs of pre flowering, so I add a ''bud candy'' nutrient.

Hi all. Welcome to this run withbthe Viparspectra XS1500 which i was kindly sent to try by their helpful rep Valerie. As I have a fairly good space to use for my main grow , it seemed an ideal time to explore a few options while I wait for space to appear following upcoming harvests. The opportunity hit at a good time and has now driven the future play time. lol The light is a full spectrum 150W( at the socket) , Dimmable and very well made unit. As summer is here now , my concerns of more heat being an issue have stopped me from adding my other light so the smaller 2ftx2ft area covered by the XS1500 is a good option , The heatsink is built into the case design with a finned top to dissipate the heat so no noisy fans. Switching it on to full power was a nice surprise as the footprint was way wider than I had expected and the actual coverage is even better for my Nursery to harvest plan.... I am growing autos perpetually at present and have been able to throughput the plants with just 2 lights and using the overlaps at the edges to bring seedlings along to veg/flowering, as harvesting is finishing. The timing had been working well but the plants were getting smaller towards the last runs . I gave it some thought and Rh % came to mind. With the perpetual runs not having a higher rh in their veg periods due to other plants needing a lower Rh% in flower , the vapour pressure deficit (vpd) was not within veg periods healthier range. This current run has exploded and filled my normal space very quickly which in turn means I cannot use the same principle as the last perpetual run of bringing the next ones along ready for the exchanges. The XS1500 takes care of this issue with it being perfect for an initial nursery light that is easily covering all the new seedlings but is also able to cover my experimental "5 plant 1 Pot" attempt. I have placed 5 of my own autob seeds from a previous seeding in a single 60 L pot and intend to strip them to their 4th nodes and only allow 2 mains per plant to develop and flower. Inam hoping to have 10 mains growing in it that will be under the xs1500 solely as the other plants outgrow the lights footprint and space they are in. They will go into the main grow space once able so i can really see how well this new light can flower with the 10 mains to fill the space. Until that point , I will diary as we go and see what we can achieve.

10 Oct 2021 (start of week 14) Tragedy struck in the grow room today!! We lost a beloved companion in the form of a whole branch from C1. A picture has been uploaded to show the gory details. Sad day; sad day indeed! Imagine my surprise today when I look into my tent and see not one, but two branches on C1 just laying over to the side. 😳 Now imagine that when you start to lift them up and secure them in place that you notice that one is no longer totally attached to the core, but just barely hanging on, and that the end is no longer moist, but dry. The only thing to do is remove it. A whole branch, gone to soon, but probably far enough along to trim, dry, and cure! I’m trying to see the light here, but in reality I’m sad. That isn’t the only issue either. Many of the branches are getting to heavy to support themselves, and I had to do a lot of maintenance to keep everything else going as planned. All of my gardening support posts I bought the other day have now been successfully employed. The only problem that I see is that I’m going to need more! Oh well. 🤷‍♂️ Keeping with the ripening stage right now, so they all three received the same level of nutrients in a gallon of water as they did the other day. CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 5ml, FloraBloom 15ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Dry KoolBloom 0.5 tsp. Initial pH was 5.5 for both C1 & C2, and 5.4 for C3. I added 8ml’s of pH UP which adjusted all 3 gallon’s pH to 6.3. I didn’t adjust them any more. TDS levels going into each plant was as follows: C1 - 1442 ppm, C2 - 1363 ppm, and C3 - 1378 ppm. Runoff levels were as follows: C1 - pH 5.7, TDS 2161 ppm. C2 - pH 5.7, TDS 2265 ppm, and C3 - pH 5.5, TDS 2391 ppm. Other than losing a branch due to weight, and having to support many others, the plants are still doing very well. Hopefully I don’t lose any more branches!! This should be the last week of nutrients, then to the flush, and harvest. Almost there, but not quite yet. Happy growing everyone! 14 Oct 2021 I had planned on defoliating the older, larger fan leaves on all 3 plants today, but some issues came up and I wasn’t able to do as much as I had hoped to do. I removed some of them, but couldn’t do it as much, or as well as I had hoped. The end of the 45 day flowering period is this coming Sunday, but I’m still using the ripening stage of nutrients this week. I’ll start flushing them in a few days. Today my lovelies received 2ml of CALiMAGic, 5ml of FloraMicro, 15ml, of FloraBloom, 1ml of Floralicious Plus, and 0.5 tsp of Dry KoolBloom mixed into a gallon of water. The initial pH for C1 was 5.5, and C2 & C3 was 5.4. I added 8.4ml’s of pH UP to each gallon which adjusted the pH in all 3 gallons to 6.4. The TDS levels going in was 1440 ppm for C1, 1464 ppm for C2, and 1503 ppm for C3. Runoff levels were as follows: C1 - pH 5.8, TDS 2194 ppm. C2 - pH 5.7, TDS 2477 ppm. C3 - pH 5.7, TDS 2439 ppm. The plants are still developing well, and the buds look awesome! The smell is very strong and amazing. So far they are doing very well, and we’re almost at the finish line. Tent temp was 82F, and humidity was 48%. See you all in a few days. Happy growing!

This lady has been Transplanted on day 39 since she was planted and she will be grown with the complete biotabs organic line, I have applied for this 50L pot: 25g of startrex for every 5L of soil so I've used 250g of startrex in total, then I've dropped a spoon of mycotrex in the planting hole and when I finished I finally added 5 slow release tabs for this 50L pot, and then I watered right after the transplant with 1g of bactrex per liter of water and 1ml/L of orgatrex, this is gonna be a fun season, stay tuned everybody!!

Today marks two weeks since germination and also the start of my journey with APTUS and their premium line program. 😎 First time working with these products so I´m gonna take it slow... mixing Regulator & Startbooster with PH at 6 and temp at 20ºC. 😉 Lowered the lights by 10 cms and the average for the week was 23,5ªC (temp) and 70% (hum). 😊 The supplies have arrived and the upgrades already installed... 2x 200mm duct vents for the side walls air entrance and swapped the 150 combi ducting for a 125 PhonicTrap acoustic ducting, that was just laying around here from a previous giveaway and wanted to test it out. Required a plastic reducer and some duct tape but the job was done 😅 As bonus a little trick I developed about placing sticky cards outside the tent near the side vent as first barrier and a little video with all the ladies together 😍 Really stoked with this one! 😋
