Day 57 Update: Plants got water yesterday with tiger bloom. First few orange pistils noticed last night, not very many yet. Yellowing is predominately in the fan leaves so maybe that is normal? Things are about to get crowded in the tent as the other three plants are starting to get big. Day 58 Update: I read up on cal-mag deficiencies. As it's my first grow, I can't know for sure how heavy/light-handed I've been with nutrients, but it feels like I've erred on the side of less is more. The "bar graph" thing is not accurate for what I've done feeding-wise. Either way, I can't image there's any actual deficiency but more likely a pH issue causing problems with magnesium uptake. I'm not too sure how accurate the 3-in-1 pH/Light/Moisture meter is, but the pH reads close to 8 in every insertion location. I'm going to order pH down, but was reading about lemon juice as a SHORT TERM fix to lower pH. Two significant issues were inevitable with this grow: 1) traveling and leaving it unattended for a week & 2) using soil that other plants were grown in. Knowing how much these two issues caused me, my future grows will honestly be way better for it. Notably how to handle extended time away as well as consistently testing pH/soil. Depending on how serious I get with this, I'd invest in more precise measurement tools, but not yet. Obviously I want big yields, but I wasn't expecting to get pounds, so I'm okay with learning how issues affect yield. My other grow is actually a really interesting study in how different stresses affect plants, but I digress. Point is, I know there are problems, I'm trying to learn to fix them, but if things go totally pear shaped, I'm not going to be too disappointed. Day 59 Update: Working on lowering the pH that feels more like the cause of deficiencies than underfeeding. In another diary I read, the grower used lemon juice in dechlorinated tap consistently in each feeding without nutrients to control pH. That's my plan until Monday when the GH ph Up/Down will be delivered. One of my plants in my other grow has pretty obvious signs of necrosis on some leaves, but it doesn't seem to be spreading. I'm pretty sure I've had wonky pH levels since I went out of town and I never got those fixed so now I'm dealing with it. Having never grown any cannabis before, but also expecting some purple in the plant, the purple/reddish hues some of the leaves initially developed seemed more normal than I should have realized. Trial by fire!! Day 60 Update: So, thinking it was a pH issue causing uptake irregularities. Many of the yellow/reddish leaves have the FEEL of a healthier leaf even if they’re still discolored. Many fan leaves fell off with minor contact/pulling. I used lemon juice last night to flush with water in the 6.0 pH range and health may be returning. I’m not going to say it’s fixed, but the damage is hopefully contained for the time being. Pics and video show damages pretty well. Knowing it may creep back up, I'll keep feeding with closer to 6.0 pH water until pH Up/Down arrives and I can re-flush for the last week or two. Day 61 Update: Nothing new to report. Feels healthier than a few days ago still, but the countermeasures deployed seem to be holding for now. Buds seem to be filling out, I’m content for the night. Day 62 Update: Water and nutrients, maybe for the last time, tonight. New soil pH meter from Home Depot is hopefully more accurate. All water was pH'd to around 6 as the soil meter showed slightly alkaline still. I'm doing the best I can to keep this under control for another week, two at the most. I also got some soil acidifier amendments for the other plants because the readings were slightly alkaline for those pots. Day 63 Update: Got a set of mobile camera lenses to take macro photos of the trichomes. Its a work in progress. Otherwise, things seem okay today. Gonna press on keeping an eye on pH, but whatever shall be, shall be.

Day 42/56+: A very good week for all the ladies this week. Fully recovered from her sodden roots the GG#4 has bounced back nicely. She looks so beautiful as a plant that the yo,yo's around her are an eyesore now.lol Her classic GG#4 look is bang on to what I expected this strain to be like and I am loving it.She smells so pungent of a lemony , sweet ,dirt kind of aroma. This is the one strain I have wanted to grow for a long time and have somehow always been sidestepped . Now original sensible seeds have put this girl back out in style. my wish has come true and here she sits waiting to fulfill a dream for me. sounds crazy even reading g this back but it gripped me when a friend gave me a nug to play with some time ago. I have grown derivatives and hybrids of her but now have the real deal right here. The tackyness when rolling a joint with this strain is second to none as it crumbles too. Black Ghost O.g is another absolute hash makers dream. Her colas are so covered in trichs that any close up pictures look like the focus is broke on my camera. so fuzzy with it and really solid to touch too. She isn't huge but like her opposite , being in the middle of larger plants has a price. She smells so pungent too up close with a stickiness that get annoying after soap won't even touch it and I can't hold paper for a while. lol Wedding cake has by far been the easiest and most productive of these ladies. She has took the food with no issues or tip burn too. This strain would be a very good strain for a first time grower too. A little training and she recovers and responds very quickly. Her general size and willingness to spread herself wider , shows how well she would take to any training g that you threw at her too. so much good secondary growth for a very nice scrog or a multi topped bush . For my needs and room limits she has been topped once and then her lower nodes , 1and 2 taken out to leave the 3rd and 4th nodes to train out more sideways. She has still responded to this with lots of the would-be popcorn hitting the canopy along with her mains once allowed vertical. This has given a very good sized canopy and overall plant footprint for her to build this great looking girl.. Buds are so frosty now and have a real gritty look more like icing sugar. They are so hard to squeeze and bounce back nicely when I try. Very impressed with her. another 3 weeks and I get to hopefully sample the first of these girls.

Milky Dreams got harvested 16/11 and I'm planning to let her dry for 14-21 days before trimming and put them in glass+boveda (58%) and grove bags for final cure. Drying conditions are as follows: 16-18°C 55-60% RH

Week 7 for Moby dick by Fastbuds Outdoor weather has been getting colder compared to last week, specially night time temps sometimes down to 10 degrees. But shes still pushing 😎 about 140cm tall atm & i think she will maybe add another 10/15cm to that😂 BIG GIRL Aphid situation seems to be under control with me spraying her at sun rise & afternoon (only when shes in shade) Have ordered some products to clean up the space that will arrive monday & some plant products too incase the issue gets worse. Very excited to see some flower production on her, finally getting some build up of white hairs going on here.

This time it was this girl's turn with a great smell. A very good strain, easy to grow, fast, and without many demands. Besides the controlled environment, it has a sweet citrus scent that makes you want to eat it instead of smoke it, lol. The buds were a good size, very resinous, and sticky. I really liked the result and intend to grow it again ✌️💪🌿🍁

Looks so beautiful and smells even better, so in love with this strain, has surprised me a lot, I would love to grow her again, very nice plant, maybe not the best in yield but quality is assured. 🤤💎🌱
