This week I pruned and defoliated heavy. Removed every fan leaf and removed everything before the scrog. I didn't get as horizontal as I would have liked but I'm hopeful I won't burn tops bcuz I'm close, lucky I have the light rail moving the light atotal of 3 feet back and forth allowing me to use more intense like but in spurts. Also the co2 bag and co2 bucket really seem to be helping. Topdressed with endgame and loaded up with basilus, activated em1, orca, great white, king crab, mammoth p, ohn, yucca, alow flakes, count powder, root wise poder and enzymes. Also weekly to every other week I make compost tea from boogie brew. All my water is treated with drops of balance and I also collect and use rainwater. I have an irrometer and run from 10 to 15 kps

This week I had to remove my red light (sad because red leds are the most efficient one in terms of pffd per wattage) the reason for that is bleaching of the tips. Scientists found out that cultivars start bleaching if u hit 600 umol/m2/s red light (just red photons and not every strain bleaches). Besides that I did nothing to them. From now on I will try to keep the temps low but with a pretty small day/night temp difference. Now preservation of terps and maturing are my points of interests. Some nice colours are getting through … that was supported by some nitrogen deficiency. This was Not on purpose but better than burning them with nutrients. (Nitrogen is required to produce chlorophyll, which is Green. If u reduce the nitrogen towards the end you can support other pigments to come through.)

This plant was a dream to grow, wish I'd taken cuts. Halfway through dry at 7 days. Drying at 55 - 60 % RH and 17 - 19 degrees C. I anticipate she'll be done between 10 - 14 days total dry time and I'll then trim and update weights on this Harvest. 133.75g total after trim. She's a nice smoke, very happy.

Hey guys it’s week three and I’m feeling great. I ran into a few issues: 1. Unexpected rise in humidity. Don’t really know why it spiked but I purchased a dehumidifier to combat the issue. 2. White powdery Mold on the side of my grow fabric pots. I believe this was a byproduct of my humidity issue. I heavy inspected each plant and from the surface everything appears to be ok. I whipped away the mold and spray it down with a solution I made from mouth wash and water prior to the girls going to sleep. I also added another fan to add more circulation. 3. I took a few photos of some of my leaves there looks to be some discoloration hard to tell what it is due to me being color blind, I believe this is due to nutrition burn. All please take a look and tell me what you think it is, is it one problem or multiple? Other than that I started LST, great start so far I believe!

What’s up everybody. So I started to flower already as you see I identified the sure males and tossed them out. What is left is 2 that still have not confirmed whether they’re female/male. I will see you all next week. Where they lol be in there forever home which will be 1Gal. The nutrients are all in Grams I hope this doesn’t confuse anyone.

After finding a couple of unseen spots of mold while chopping I meticulously went through every single crevice of each nug from both plants and removed the few spots I found, this took about 10 hours straight (not including light trim and wash). Absolutely stoked with the results of this grow and so proud to have gotten both these girls all the way to the finish line!

The purple one has gotten so much fatter with its flowers but the other plant has a slow growth rate, not sure if it’s due to my fault but it seems to be doing okay. First problem I’ve noticed so far is a deficiency in Calcium. Started to see brown spots and decided to do a last top dress and made sure to add some gypsum.

March 3: Added a few pics. All is growing right on target! Buds are starting to stack and I absolutely love the smell coming out of the flower room. These next 3-4 weeks are my favorite 😊 March 1: Four weeks since light switchover to 12/12. Technically I call this end of week 2 of flowering since I don't count pre-flower. Managed to get a video although the quality isn't what I would like. Grow is going very well. I kept 4 plants that I didn't top as an experiment this grow since I always top and have never let them go au natural :-) Last time I do that though. Feeding big bloom at a rate of 3 tsp per gallon every other watering. Going to add some bloom boost this upcoming week. I'm quite happy all in all with how this particular grow is going. Humidity got a bit high this week 60 and I immediately took steps to remedy this. Now humidity is around 50. Don't want dreaded bud rot! I'll add some additional pictures this week in the meantime enjoy the video and beware of dog near the end :-D

Last week of feed before flush, going into week 8 of flower now. These girls look and smell great. Plucked some fan leaves blocking light to bud sights. Hope to see them fatten up a little more in these last 2 weeks. 😎🌿

Genetics & Appearance: Lemon Cherry Pop stands out with its vibrant appearance — dense, resin-coated buds showing shades of deep green and purple under a frosty layer of trichomes. The name says it all: colorful, fruity, and full of character. Aroma & Flavor: This strain delivers an irresistible blend of sweet cherry and zesty lemon notes. On the exhale, a subtle creamy undertone lingers, giving it a candy-like finish. The terpene profile is lively and well-balanced, perfectly blending citrus brightness with sugary fruitiness. Effects & Potency: Lemon Cherry Pop is highly potent, offering an uplifting, euphoric onset that transitions smoothly into a deep, relaxing body effect. It provides a balanced high that can elevate mood and creativity before settling into calm and content relaxation — perfect for winding down or enjoying a peaceful evening. Yield: The yield is relatively low, making this a connoisseur strain rather than a high-production variety. However, the top-shelf quality of the buds more than compensates for the limited

This will be the last week of veggie for the girls. I'll be switching them over this weekend to their flowering schedule. I noticed that some of the newer leaves on the top are lighter than the other leaves, they are yellowish. I added some calmag to their diet because I realized I'd never given them any. I'll be monitoring that to make sure it doesn't get worse. Overall... color me HAPPY heheheee 😃

Hier hab ich die Bilder aus Mitte der 6. Blütewoche und das Video Anfang 7. Blütewoche kombiniert. Hier sieht man, dass die zwei die Umstellung von Licht und Temperatur nicht so gut vertragen haben. In dem Video habe ich schon einige gelbe Blätter entfernt. Nur die, die auch sehr trocken aussahen. Zudem habe ich noch einen kleiner zweiten Ventilator installiert um eine bessere Umluft zu generieren Here I've combined the pictures from the middle of the 6th week of flowering with the video from the beginning of the 7th week. You can see that the two plants didn't tolerate the change in light and temperature very well. In the video, I've already removed some yellow leaves—only those that looked very dry. I also installed a small second fan to generate better air circulation.

Lookin good, no more herms so far as I’ve tightened things up hopefully that’s the last of them for good. I installed a 4Inch AC infinity fan and filter as an intake so I have been able to close all of the vents. At this point the leaf strip has proven to be a solid method, I have nothing to compare bud size at this point but just the extra space it opened up is a plus. I’m sure the lowers will be a little more firm and the plants obviously haven’t had to be fed as often as usual so its saving time, water and nutrients. The added microbes have also allowed me to keep my ppm around 1000 instead of 1080ish without any sign of deficiencies. The Mandarin cookies x Dionysus has a little cal-mag issue but that was a trait from the mother which out of 10+ grows all had a cal-mag deficency.

27.11 Bud swell a little bit delayed because of the lower temperatures overall this time of year. It is around 21-22 degrees inside the tent in comparison to 26 in the summer. I hope they will be done by Christmas. I ve had a little problem at my spot and have to clear everything out for a few days. Bummer. Plants are on vegetative irrigation schedule. 6, 150 ml shots followed by 3 replenishment shots. About 10-15 % runoff.
