Day 58 - 07/02/20 About 70% or more pistils are amber and ive harvested the inner stems of the plant yesterday and today and trimmed it all down to individual buds before putting it in the net to dry for a week :) The inner stems had such thick and dense buds on them that it was blocking some light from the buds on the outer stems and preventing them from reaching full maturity. They are now getting all the light they need for a few more days during the flushing week. I will also be reducing the light from 18/6 down to 12/12 this week as its not possible for me to isolate the plants in total darkness for 72h. I was told that no light right before harvest will mean more THC production, any time i knock the lights back before harvest my buds always look frosty and covered in trichomes. I cant wait until i have a smaller veg tent and another tent so i can isolate the plants for the full 72 hours. Anyways i had a little problem over the last 2 weeks with my PH pen being cheap and nasty, it constantly needs calibrated but still its doing a basic job and preventing more serious PH issues until i get a replacement. i also think i might have flushed the plants at that time before calibrating the PH meter and they were not happy about it :) Everything looks okay now in my tent and im just giving this one only Phed tap water until harvest :) I added a few photos of the Cayenne pepper plants harvest, the pepper plant was in one of my older grows i think maybe my first... could be the quick one diary, with minimal care and a little water i grew some monster peppers, i wanted to give them thier own diary but im not sure how GD would react hahah. so i posted them here, These peppers were all grown under the same light in the exact same conditions as i grow my weed with no bugs 🐜 or problems with mould, id strongly reccommend giving it a go and use up that grow space, especially as its bad for the environment to indoor grow! make the most of it folks! Anyways happy medicating for this week and check out my other diaries if you all get time :) Day 60 - 09/02/20 Added a video of a few buds from the inner stems drying on my drying net. I trimmed the fan leaves off and chopped the tips of the sugar leaves which had no trichomes on them. most of the test buds got all the visible stem removed but i left a few of the chunky tops to dry just to see how they turn out. Anyways im going to flush for a few more days before chopping the rest down and getting it ready to dry :) Keep on growing folks!

First 12/12 on 3.2.

This will be my first grow. Northern lights x Big bud Auto in Foxfarm happy frog soil. Temperature about 77 average and RH about 50% in my 2 x 3 tent. I’m getting a fantastic airflow with my exhaust being on high. Things are looking really good I’m ready to see these babies come out of the ground. JreyBudz🔥Likes are appreciated 🌱

Everything is going well with our big girl, switched to ph treated tap water which seems to be working well. It comes out of the tap at 7 ph and around 80 ppm. I have used lemon juice to get it around 6.86 ph after mixing in my nutrients. 2/11- Very hard to water big girl as she seems to be drinking really fast and theres not much room; i'm having to water everyday. Not sure how long i'm going to veg but starting to worry about height for flower in my 3x3

2/6 - Reservoir EC 1061, PH 6.1 at 5:30pm. 2/7 - Reservoir EC 1061, PH 6.2 at 11:00am. - Today I did an inspection of the girls and Sweet Baby James is a confirmed hermie and the damage has been done! She has opened pollen sac's in a few different spots and released her pollen, some directly onto my fans 😐 Looks like I'm in for a seedy harvest, oh well. Long Shanks is still stretching like crazy! She is now 64" tall (5' 6"). She has at least tripled in size since the flip. She is also now starting to form some nice flowers too. 2/8 - Reservoir EC 1061, PH 6.2 at 9:00am 2/9 - Reservoir EC 1057, PH 6.1 at 10:30am 2/10 - Reservoir EC 1125, PH 6.1 at 11:00am. - Surprisingly no sign of pistils fading/shrivelling. All pistils are still white and sticking straight up. I'm praying that Sweet Baby James is shooting blanks 😉 haha. Will keep a close eye out for signs of pollination. Sweet Baby James is still growing like crazy! She's nearly at 6 feet. Over twice the size of her "sister". 2/11 - Reservoir EC 1085, PH 6.0 at 6:00am 2/12- Reservoir EC 1087, PH 6.1 at 10:30am - Pistils are still showing no signs of pollination. Now I am starting to get my hopes up that Sweet Baby James is an infertile hermie. I really hope I'm right. Long Shanks is still stretching!! She is turning into a tree and quickly running out of space in her new, much larger home. Hopefully she's about done with her insane growth spurt. I would say she has quadrupled in size since the flip, maybe more! 2/13 - Reservoir EC 1104, PH 6.1 at 6:00am

What's up guys? This week was very nice. They gained a lot of trichomes and the smell became extremely strong. Smells like a very sweet perfume. I love it and I can't wait to have a taste. I fed them the last time today. From now on they will get pure water only. See you next week!

What's up everyone ? This week was very nice. They gained a lot of trichomes and became super sticky. I fed them the last time today. From now on they will get pure water only. See you next week!

Starting to feel like autopilot. Running into some minor problems this week in terms of feeding. Plant #3 had a runoff PPM of around 4000. Immediately decided to fllush her, but because of the medium's waterholding - the earth feels really heavy, even multiple days afterwards. She will be enjoying a two week flush and will then be chopped.

2/5 Week 6 May be last week of veg kind of depends on factors outside the grow. Lets hope Keeping the Si included and leaving nuets as is. Continuing to defoliate as needed to keep things civil in the small tent, Moya is crowded. Canopy is at 30" plants about 20" 2/6 Better plan! Found a table at Goodwill that will fit in the flower tent and allow two plants to be moved there tomorrow. So tomorrow is the day, two plants will remain in Moya, prob Jool and Zhaan 2/7 Aeryn is in flower tent flipped to 12-12 Jool and Zhaan in small tent, Moya, also flipped to 12-12 Here we go Feed set as above, keeping levels low at this point 2/8 Second day May reduce feed a bit, white tips One time feed of Kangaroots 10ml/gal Keeping things defoliated so the middle gets lots of light 2/8 Last attempt to try and get rid of those white tips. Further reduced feed but added just a touch of cal-mag to make up for it. If this doesnt work I am just feeding them and ignoring the tips. Flowering is starting to show, more on Aeryn being under the HPS than Jool and Zhaan under the LEDs. Continuing to defoliate as needed to keep bud sites in light. 2/10 Bringing down the nuets to under 500ppm did the trick on the white tips but can not leave things there so back to some sane level and I am just going to ignore it. Stretch is starting for real 😳 2/11 Since the tip burning is an issue with N, I am going to move the girls to all bloom tomorrow with today as a transition. Strain is absolutely sensitive to Nitrogen.

2/5 Week 6 Did some defoliation to keep things clean She just doing so well sex is showing Leave nuets as is She has been chosen to go into the big tent first and flipped three days before the rest of her cousins. Be a few days 2/7 Into Flowering tent flipped to 12-12 nuets adjusted slightly 2/9 New pics

2/1 Week 12! Re-introducing the Peak PK in low dose as I begin to migrate the plant to all Peak and then flush I hope all in less than two weeks. Will step things daily, tomorrow it will be 10 ml CT 10 ml Peak with an eye on the ppm. You get the idea, she has to finish and fast. Valuable lesson, don't have anything ever backed up behind a sativa grow waiting on them to finish, it aint worth it. Grow em at the end of a cycle. 2/2 put the feed at 12ml CT 7ml Peak thought maybe its too much of a swing, tomorrow 10 and 10 2/3 10ml of each this morning. Got to move things along, new plan is to begin flush at start of new week this weekend, At flush changing lights to 12/12 , binding her back up just a little, then placing one of the testers on a stand in the tent to take pressure off the veg tent. 5-7 days later we harvest based on what we see. We cannot come up with anything better As far as growth she is doing great, its a heavy plant and the hairs are still straight and 95% white! Build so fast 2/4 All is well Tara really seems to like the 10-10 dose so leaving it for now. Changed light schedule to match the veg tent. This is to accommodate the near arrival of one of the photos. In a few days the plant will have to finish off at 12-12 so the photo can flip. Not ideal but practical from our point of view. Keeping our hopes up here and uttering my characteristic prayer... Please God dont let me foul this up... Amen 2/5 Feeding as before Had to bind her up a bit, she is so heavy we were afraid of her toppling over. Seriously this plant is TOP HEAVY. Which is good I guess 😬 Not flushing till I see it is time, not messing this one up. Dont get plants like this everyday. 2/7 Ending the week with a full tent again Switched lights to 12-12 and bound her up to fit in half the tent, we literally could not come up with anything else for this. She just keeps going and going lol DRY WEIGHT ON RIPLEY! 261 grams Hoped for more but meh sativas. Still nothing to sneeze at 😇

Its week 11, Harvest time!! .... or is it? Well, i can tell you - absolutely not. 💩 #3 is well into flower right now, but i dont think she's gonna come down for another 3 weeks. She's def. the furthest along though. I'll be using the thrichoscope end of this week i reckon. #2 and #1 are both just barely getting started in their flower, so they will probably run for another 5 or 6 weeks at least. i've got good hopes for plants 2 and 3, and also feel like the light-intensity experiment is really giving me some solid results. (the one with the least light is #3, whhich even started to flower much sooner than the other two, i feel like there is a link with the scarcity of light energy it receives. anyone here that would confirm or deny such an idea?)

All WAS well until I noticed severe foxtailing I guess you would call it on 2 of the girls :(. This leads me to believe it can be 3 possible reasons. My thermostat was mostly between 70-75 the past two weeks I'd say I added a cheap heater BC my temps were steady in the mid to high 60s. Thermostat isnt the best and I opened the tent twice where the temp was at 86, for how long who knows. I check my tent several times a day tho. Im running Bridgelux led strips which I brought up to 140watt last week at 15inches from canopy from the tallest branch. Doesn't seem like much at all for a 3x3 tent so I'm not sure about that. Brought it back down to 120W just in case Not enough air flow. I had one computer fan (100cfm) running in one corner. That I had in my 2x2 tent which seemed to be sufficient. I forgot I was over doubling the space in the 3x3. Added another 2 fans. From what I read there's no turning back from this issue. I hope I read wrong lol. Gave a nice heavy feeding of B52 aswell. Any comments would be greatly appreciated

Plant A seems to be packing weight on now had to tie a few branches up, Plant B seems behind i think its because it just kept on stretching done abit more defoliation on it throughout this week, Plant C is A lot smaller than the other 2 and is looking a lot more closer to harvest its currently 5 days into a flush, the best pictures i could get of the trichomes i have added can anyone tell me what they think from my pics how much longer i think a few days but this is my first grow? Would appreciate anyone comments thanks

another week, another update. by the end of week 6 of flower the two ladies (#1 and #2) are doing great. I noticed a little deficiency by rust spots on the leaves; did some research online and i went ahead to give this one ane extra dose of Overdrive (0-5-4) for her newly developed flowering PK hunger.

With this grow, my germinating has gotten better. This time I water more.

Waiting for equipment like a broke b!@#$ but when I got it it was like Christmas 🎄🎄🌳
