Hello. This is the end of the veg cycle and the first week in flowering. It's May 30/2023. The Breeders Description said 8 to 9 weeks of flowering. That should take us to August 1st. That would be the start of week 9 and Aug. 8th would be the end of week 9, so I plan to harvest around then. The greenhouse looks a little different than last time. My buddy Jerry brought me some bamboo (he went out of his way on his birthday to do that for me) What A nice guy he is. I used 18 of the longest pieces to make a Scrog type of net to hold up the big buds I hope to get. First year to try this bamboo thing. Hope it goes good. I might have to tie it up tighter. I did a good trim/prune, under the table mostly, but did remove some big fanleaves up top that blocked the lower branch ends/tips from seeing good light. I think it's also good to remove the big fanleaves that don't get much light any more. It promotes more growth up top. While trimming I left the branches that were growing straight down. I'll trim them off today for cuttings, for clones I'll make later. I mix 10ml of liquid seaweed with 1 gallon of water to put the cuttings in. I'll make 6 cups for 6 different plants numbered 1 to 6 so I don't mix them up. 😁 I'll pack up the lights later. I'll mix some transition to flowering, nutrient solution tomorrow. That means a little less N and a little more P and K. Thanks for looking in. Chuck.

I moved the Californian Gold that was in the center because it was too wide and tall compared to the more compact phenotypes. I raised the shorter plants so that the canopy height is fairly uniform for all plants. I defoliated heavily, not sure if it was enough but I didn't want to overdo it and cause damage since I lack experience. I stopped Rhynoskin. I gave 1ml/L of Biorhizotonic to support the roots after defoliation. The amount of water I give is still 1.4L/day – no need for more, since I can water every day obviously. They might be a bit small and not very dense for being mid-4th week. I should push more with Bloombastic, and maybe I will, but I didn't want to cause any kind of lockout, and I saw the leaf tips showing slight burn, so I kept the dose very low. Overall, I like the plants and they're starting to produce resin (especially the Sensi Star). Let's say that considering how the cycle started, with intermittent blackouts in my area during the 2nd/3rd week of veg, it seems things have balanced out. Stay tuned. Peace!

Welcome back, my fellow green-thumbed enthusiasts, to another captivating chapter in the awe-inspiring journey of my magnificent Purple Lemonade FF! Today, we embark upon Week 9 from seed, which also marks the beginning of Week 2 in the enchanting realm of flower. Prepare yourselves for a tale of continued rapid growth, delightful flower development, and a harmony of environmental conditions that would make even the most discerning botanist proud. Let me paint you a picture of our wondrous purple beauty as she continues to flourish. Oh, how she has grown since our last encounter! Her branches have become a mesmerizing tapestry of green, weaving together a spectacle of bud sites that dance under the gentle sway of the grow lights. We were wise to provide her with the second scrog layer, for now, she stands as a botanical titan, confidently supported and reaching for the heavens with undeniable determination. In our last chapter, we dared to defoliate, revealing the hidden potential within our plant. Well, my dear companions, I'm pleased to report that our daring move paid off splendidly! The improved light penetration and enhanced air circulation have invigorated our Purple Lemonade FF like never before. Her leaves stretch out like sun-hungry fingers, eagerly soaking in every photon that the grow lights generously bestow upon her. Now, let's talk VPD—Vapor Pressure Deficit—for those unfamiliar with the term. Picture this: our beloved plant has her very own atmospheric dance, a delicate balance between the humidity in the air and the temperature in her environment. Think of it as a dance floor—when the humidity and temperature are in perfect harmony, our plant is at her happiest, thriving and boogying in flower bliss. And guess what? Our VPD is a delightful 1.09 kPa, meaning the conditions in our grow space are ideal for our green diva to strut her stuff! As our Purple Lemonade FF enters the second week of flower, her buds start to show off their flawless form. Each one is a tiny work of art, and together, they create a symphony of colors and aromas that tantalize the senses. The stage is set, and the audience eagerly anticipates the grand performance of flower, where the once-dormant calyxes now transform into beautiful blossoms, shimmering with trichomes and bursting with resinous delights. Of course, let us not forget our unsung heroes—the nematodes, Spical Ulti Mite, and Swirskii. These valiant defenders continue their unseen battles, ensuring that potential pests remain at bay, and our precious Purple Lemonade FF can blossom without worry. Fellow cultivators, I invite you to revel in the extraordinary growth and the magical transformation of our Purple Lemonade FF. As she enters the second week of flower, our anticipation grows alongside her buds. Together, we celebrate the power of defoliation, the wonders of VPD, and the sheer beauty of nature's grand design. As always, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for joining me on this enthralling journey.

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 " Arising from a cross between purple and citrus Cali genetics, Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) offers a complex high made up of perfectly balanced cerebral and body effects that are ideal for daytime use. Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor. Expect a potent uplifting high that gives you that energy boost you need to get things done while 100% happy and stress-free. The effect gradually transforms into a wave that works its way along the limbs and through the muscles, deeply relaxing your body and putting you in the right mindset to go through a busy day with a huge smile on your face. This is an excellent all-day smoke as it not only increases energy but can also help combat chronic pain, migraine and stress. Plant Appearance This feminized photoperiod variety develops a thick and strong structure, growing a medium-sized main cola with multiple shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. Purple Lemonade FF develops fairly short internodal spacing with gorgeous purple buds growing stacked on top of each other, making it the perfect choice for growers of all levels looking to get lots and lots of top-shelf purple weed, as this variety can produce up to 550 g/m2 in a 7-8 week flower cycle. Grow Tips This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth-watering hash and extracts. Flavor Expect a long-lasting citrus zest that taste just like it smells. Purple Lemonade FF reeks of a delicious blend of sweet fruits and tart citrus that’ll make your mouth water. On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade.

11/20 I did quite a bit of feeding last week and her top is getting very heavy. I’m having trouble keeping them standing up. I was going to take down one branch but I think it would cause the other branches to fall so I’m just gonna try and keep balancing them maybe for another week then I’m gonna cut them down. I have three more and another tent. I’m flowering them at between 86 and 90 W with the Mars Hydro lighting seems to do the trick I’ve had the same plant growing I think for over a year now I keep taking clones and then I take another clone. This is the first time I’ve attempted to do that and now I can see. I’m glad that I did because I made up for seeds that I managed to kill along the way. I always blame the seed company and then I find out a year later that it was something I did so I try not to complain too much about that. 11/21 I took down one of the branches yesterday she was giving me trouble. I sent a message to the other ones. I think it helped they really starting to produce now. They’re really starting to fill in now. I could take them down but I want to keep them going maybe two weeks as long as you’re still bulking up I want to keep going and I have one branch that will probably dry down to, a little more than half an ounce. It’s not really big, but it’s pretty nice and considering these were just clones these are branches. If you look early in my other diary, they work great. They’re looking a little crispy from a little too much nutrient I’m gonna give them just some plain water tomorrow and start backing way off on all nutrients. I think they have about another two weeks to go maximum. They’re really filling in nicely if I don’t stress them out they fill-in really good. Should probably get at least a dry ounce off of each of these branches. 11/22/23 I dried one of the branches didn’t get a lot. It’s very nice densely packed. Smells good it’s enough for me. 11/25 Saturday morning. I took a branch this morning. I have two on one plant and three on the other still going. I’ll keep them going if I can if they’re still growing I turned the light down to 89 I don’t really benefit from light that’s too bright toward the end of the grow it just melts the resin it just is not good for them and they seem to go just fine. I have another blackjack clone in another tent that I am going to try and do the whole grow at 93 W with this light so far it’s going just great. I accidentally left it there and if I can do that and not stress it, I might get better plants at lower wattage. 11/26 these three blackjack clones are growing perfectly at 93 W. I can’t believe it. No sign of stress of any kind so I’m gonna keep it at this wattage. Also it keeps the temperature super low. I have the driver outside the tent so it doesn’t make that much difference and one of the pots I didn’t fill up with quite as much soil probably 2 gallons and they still are doing good so blackjacks are very fun to experiment with and it’s a great smoke I have one of the branches drying right now and she seems to get more resins as she’s drying it’s incredible. I have two that are flowering that are just about ready. I overdid the fertilizer so I’m going to do a clean today with the general hydroponics. I got a gallon of the flora clean. I’m going to leave them at 89 W for the rest of the grow that should be good enough. It’s great that I can do this at 89 W. I use the general hydroponics Flora, clean and watered both of them. I did 10 mL per gallon and I did about a gallon and a half. There was a lot of runoff. It was really gross. I have bugs in the soil. I sprayed the bag and the soil for bugs.

Week by week, the terps are starting to smell better and better. I decided to run PK 13/14 for a few more days. I’ll be switching to Overdrive soon, but it still feels a bit early. Other than that, not much has changed. I brought the humidity down a bit and removed some older leaves that were damaged when I cranked the light too high. This week I also decided to get rid of a lot of the bud growth below the trellis, since I don’t think the light is sufficient for them to amount to much. Apart from that, the feed stayed pretty much the same: Rhino Skin: 1.7 ml/L CalMag → EC 0.35 Coco A: ~2.5 ml/L Coco B: ~2.5 ml/L Cannazym: ~2.5 ml/L Canna Boost: ~2.5 ml/L Canna PK 13/14: ~1.3 ml/L I diluted it down to 2.04 EC (it was around 2.15 EC).

I'm very aware the one is looking a little deficient but it is strange as I've fed that one the same as its sister despite the difference in soil. Looks like fox farm is proving itself here folks. Classic example of the power of the ocean forest. That bieng said you can clearly see the purple lemonade and that was deficient but it is wicked insane how frosty it is. Hope you folks enjoy & check back next week 2 see just how fast they bud. & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!

KEVS_BEST Woche 7 – Erste vollständige Blütewoche & Stretch-Boost Nach dem holprigen Start zu Beginn der Blütephase in Woche 6 konnten die anfänglichen Nährstoffmängel durch die verspätete Umstellung auf Canna Terra Bloom erfolgreich ausgeglichen werden. Die Pflanzen zeigten sich zu Beginn der ersten vollen Blütewoche wieder vital und reagierten mit kräftigem Wachstum auf die neue Nährstoffversorgung. Der Stretch nahm nun richtig Fahrt auf – mit einem durchschnittlichen Zuwachs von bis zu 2,5 cm pro Tag. Die Internodienabstände blieben dabei kompakt genug, um eine schöne Struktur für die spätere Blütenentwicklung zu ermöglichen. Dank stabiler Umweltbedingungen (ca. 26 °C bei Tag, Luftfeuchtigkeit unter Kontrolle) verlief die Woche ohne neue Zwischenfälle. Die leicht zuvor beobachteten Mängel verschwanden vollständig. Die Triebspitzen begannen nun sichtbar, erste Blütenansätze zu entwickeln – weiße Stigmen zeigten sich deutlich, das typische Anfangsstadium der Sherbzooka-Blüte setzte ein. ENGLISH KEVS_BEST Week 7 – First Full Week of Flower & Stretch Boost After the bumpy start into the flowering phase during week 6, the initial deficiencies caused by the delayed switch to Canna Terra Bloom were successfully corrected. At the beginning of the first full flowering week, the plants recovered well and responded with vigorous growth. Stretch really kicked in – with daily growth rates of up to 2.5 cm. Node spacing remained tight enough to support ideal flower stacking later on. With stable environmental conditions (around 26 °C daytime, humidity under control), the week continued smoothly without further issues. The previous minor deficiencies completely faded. The top sites started to form the first clear flower sets – with visible white pistils marking the official beginning of the Sherbzooka bloom phase.

Lots of bloom spots are popping up everywhere! The smell is getting intense. Smells like lemons/citrus fruits, very sour but earthy. Easy grow so far.🤞🌿🙆‍♀️Video is the girls in their small tent with my temporary DIY ventilation lol. Take a look! 🙏😍❤️🙆‍♀️ Also thinking of starting trellis netting this week, what do you all think? I would be using the 3 inch square netting. Also need recommendations for a grow light for the autoflowers remaining cycle and for future grows coming soon!

Day 16: Some branches were tied down already. trying to get her to expand as much as possible. The previous training I did with a Dance World, ended up with a very bushy plant which did not allow a lot of light penetration. Day 18 : They were transplanted in a hempy bucket, I would like to play with it once more. I did not use layers only spike in the super soil. it follows the same recipes as the first transplant in week 2. Day 19 : They were both topped in order to keep 5 branches on each plant, I would like them to spread out as much as possible as they get so bushy. Trying to adjust from the first grow. Day 21 : They were tied down in order to start growing outwards instead of up.

Another amazing week with these beauties I am still feeding the same monkey nutrients couple seem to be burning through the feed quicker so I have upped the doses back to the full doses as I had dropped them slightly previously but they are so sticky 🙏🙏 so I am trying to ensure the air circulation stays constant and the humidity stays at around 42 with the increased temperatures we have had here in the UK I have turned my extraction fan up to near jet engine status 😂😂 thankfully its not really any louder than a fan so it's not been to bad and the carbon filter is doing a really good job at keeping the danky smell in the tent personally I love the smell not sure the neighbours would so much 🤣😳 in inlet fan and circulation fans are working hard but managing to keep temps from going above 29 there was one day I set Zues pro at 75% just to help temps drop The buds are really starting to get heavy now and there is literally no room left for anymore the highest tips are probably 4f 8 the tent is only 6ft 6 so the Zues pro 600 is as high as it can go now so thank goodness the home stretch is not that far away now. So I am really talking to them lots giving them lots of love and attention and preying these beauties continue to do there thing and grow there buds nice and fat with no issues 🙏👌 Thank you for reading stay blessed 💚

Die Pflanze entwickelt sich prächtig. Nach dem umtopfen ist sie auch gleich auf 30 cm innerhalb ein paar Tagen gewachsen. So habe ich sie dann auf 16cm runtergebogen 😁 Hat ein paar Tage gedauert bis sie sich an die neue Position gewöhnt hatte. Nun wächst sie wieder fleißig 😍
