My good friend convinced me that trimming and training are paramount, so I've started with slowly defoliating the Creme de la Chems to try and get to lollipop status. They're just starting to flower, so I figured I could get away with a more aggressive approach. Because I failed to train these girls early, I'm stuck dealing with a little rain forest. What I've tried to do is trace each flower topped stalk up from the base, and trim away from the bottom up. 1/3 of the way up per day. I've now got a thick canopy, and I've been trying to just use leaf tucking and manual manipulation every few hours in order to keep the different height flowering sites in direct light. These ladies have really been thriving, and it's been such a joy to watch them grow! I like having two plants in one net pot letting them grow wild, but I think in my next grow I'll keep it to one per pot and train better from the start. As for the Super Orange Haze ... not as good. I attempted to pull the main branch over to train her to some empty space, but I was too aggressive and ended up popping her head off :(. First grow, first disaster. I took the head and stripped her/coated in clonex and pushed her into some potting soil just to see what would happen. There hasn't been enough foliage to really make me want to do any trimming, I've just tried to tie the stalks off to train them apart. I'm really sad about my mistake decapitation, but she seems to be doing well still. She's probably week 2 of flower based on others' journals. I changed the water midway through the week (which is when the videos were taken). I drained most of the water out, but roots prevented me from getting the last few gallons. When I refilled the res with RO, I measured the PPM at around 200. I have to assume that remaining nutrient was completely unbalanced leftovers, so feeding will have to just have to be experimental. My approach has been to give around 1:1 Gro vs Bloom and Micro every 2-3 days when I refill with RO. I want to build my PPM up to 1000, but slowly so that I can detect if I hit a ceiling first. It's hard to measure how much food is in the water based on PPM. CalMag is what drives it mostly, so I've been using CalMag as a sort of measuring stick. I keep the CalMag pegged to the Bloom food, but I know it's only good for initial dosing. I can't assume the plants are eating CalMag in the same proportion as anything else :(. If anyone has a line on cheap lab testing ... hit me up. I'd love to be able to test a few hundred samples at a time for NPK and trace so that I can tell (even if post facto) what was going on.

Just going wild with the clip training 🤣

Day 28 folks. I fuckin tripped liked a dumbass and broke a bunch of branches off the frosted apricots in the 4x8, kept an eye on it and it popped out some nanners so I had to take it down. Hoping I got it out im time before it pollinated anything but not positive. It's always somethin. Broke a head nug off the platinum silk too but havnt found any dix on her so that one might be aight. The leaf strip with the trellis is just no Bueno. Might try a different method next run where u strip everything below the first node on day 7 of flower and then a quick pluck down the line so I dont have to do matrix shit thru the nets like Neo dodgin bullets. Go use my codes for some floraflex shit 🤙

Iniziò fioritura,.oggi 2 agosto, secondo giorno a 12 ore...dopo aver sofferto anche lei 3 mesi dentro AD un vaso da un litro... adesso con questo vaso da 11 dovrei riuscire a portarla. A maturazione,,,💪😂

Vegetation cycle starts. Light intensity 50% @ 16 inches Nutrient program starts at 50% Green Planet Easy Feed and Week 2 begin Green Planet Pro Feed @ 50%. Abit too much light for the plants finding the sweet spot on a 480watt LED,they recovered well. Still battling high humidity and high temps. 28-31'C 65%-90%. Introducing a new dehumidifier as of next week. Have turned AC on High between 11am-5pm (hottest part of the day) Summer only!

The coolest little plant ever , she’s smelling so fruity and delicious maybe another 2 feeds then a flush . Can’t wait to smoke this one and I feel so validated I kept her

Super Skunk Kush GOG Autumn Cup 18th January 2022 She is looking good 😀 should start to see some stretch now that flowering is getting very close . I'm hoping it fills the wire cage by the time it is in full bloom we shall see 😎 Waiting on some guano for the bloom booster as well as a few jars of molasses . I am enjoying this grow so far and hope I can do well in this comp by getting some frosty bud at the end 👊 Thanks once again for stopping by 👍

Amazing to mix with water pH and EC easy to reach the desired point

Been a good week explosive growth first signs off early stages of flower few plants come out with spotting and few yellow leafs tent is starting to get cramped tried to spread um out as even as possible with the space we have , first dose of nutrients solo soil nutes we’ve gone with as recommended by the local grow shop

At day 20 i done fimming,the plant answer good and she keep growing normal now waiting a bit more for more lst. Hope you enjoy my diary

6. Blütewoch. Lets go. Die 5. Woche verlief ruhig. Aktuell habe ich mit einer Mangelerscheinung zu kämpfen. Ich vermute, dass die Erde keine Nährstoffe mehr hat. Dazu kommt, dass der Topf voll mit Wurzeln ist und es keinen Platz mehr gibt. Die oberste Schicht Erde habe ich aufgelockert, da ein Versickern des Waseers, erschwert lief. Ich bin gespannt, wie es weiter geht in Woche 6. Für den nächsten Run, besorge ich einen größeren Topf.

Colling soon

That was a pleasure

This is the coolest duck ever.

I have moved my last automatic ladies of the season indoor cause I didn't want to risk the integrity of the nugs because of the high humidity. I have brought her with all of my plants under my LED panel of HortiONE 190w. 100% organically grown with Biotabs organics, super citric and earthy and kushy smells, very special plant, definitely would love to make a sea of green with 25 blackberry kush in a 1,20. LOVE IT! 👌 💎💚😋

Fastest growth in a week I've ever seen in any type of grow setup. Very excited to see what the next few weeks of Veg bring on!

Week 2.I rearranged a few lights in my grow room to get rid of unnecessary lighting and I also moved my auto flowers to their own separate environment. Only about three more weeks left on the Auto’s and I’ll be done for now. I plan on using a harvest right freeze dryer to cure

She's flowering fast and well. But she's late, I hate her. I really don't know what will remain of her after this storm. Wednesday after the rain/wind I've found 2 lateral branches broken.

Bienvenidos cultivadores de marihuana clandestinos, y también, a los que tienen la fortuna de no serlo!🖐️👨‍🌾... todo por la causa! Otra mañana nublada, otra mañana de porros y música en compañía de esta gitana digna descendiente de La Faraona. Tímidamente, la planta ha comenzado la pre flora, ayer hice una gran defoliación a todas las plantas, no me agrada esta técnica, pero me obliga la necesidad de espacio y quiero la mayor entrada de luz por el dosel ya que esta temporada apenas voy a añadir luz lateral, la planta pierde esplendor pero lo recuperará en unos días y además los brotes florales quedan más expuestos a la luz... a jugar! Esta semana la planta ha aumentado mucho el consumo de agua, han sido días calurosos que ayudan a aumentar el metabolismo de los cultivos, principalmente en esta etapa de crecimiento. Además, dos riegos profundos con Bio estimulantes con una concentración EC de 1.25, de momento, espero a una definición mayor de las flores para aumentar la cantidad y tipo de nutrientes. Hasta la próxima...
