8/23 shes smelling so much like blueberries💚 im super concerned with the amount of leaves my plants are cannibalizing/ losing. They've been turning yellow and then eventually golden brownish crisp and fall off. The leaves that are falling off, only seem to be fan leaves and all the leaves around the pistils/main parts of branches/plant, all seem to be intact and very healthy still. I hope she's able to stay healthy till the finish of the grow. First outdoor grow. Learning experience 💚🤘I should have added some fish meal in the middle of July so she had some nitrogen for the beginning of flowering. I'm concerned the leaves lost is due to nitrogen deficiency. But I'm 3 weeks into flower and dont want to confuse her with more nitrogen than I have been giving 8/24 fed some more open sesame. 8/28 thinking my plants have been having a ph lock out causing magnesium deficiency

Flushing this week or for the next two depending on how much time she needs.

Everything is going AMAZING! I have started giving her some fox farm big bloom every other feeding. As you can see she's flowering now. The smell is very strong and sweet. Additionally, one set of nodes just split into 2 growth tips as if I had topped it. I've never seen anything like that before. So far I have nothing but good to say about SpliffSeeds!

Dark leaves are nice 😅✌️ Looks like strong indica

Well we finally reached the end. The last week was more cruise control. Just trying to remove the big fan leaves that's blocking any flowers. The trichomes looking kinda ready but still acceptable. During the last few days I maintained a daytime Humidity of around 60 and nighttime of 55. Temperatures are between 73 degrees and 67 degrees. Two days before chop they got 48 hrs of dark and 3 days of no water to add to the stress. After the 48hrs darkness all the ladies Came out extra frosty. Loving the change of hues on the blue gelato. The vanilla Kush is very oily and very very strong smell. Not a strong smell coming off the OrangeGelato though. The green gelato has a creamy smell.

the last week has been really sunny again and the temperatures are also constant. she has started to show small blooms. so far she is doing well

❤️🍀my first sativa👀

Week 2 seedling

:' (

Haven't updated due to being really busy , the girls are coming along but have had a huge problem with humidity which has then caused the plants to start getting powder mildew on the leaves, which is not good, I think the tent got to packed with plants , hopefully it doesn't effect the grow to much

6/6/2023 Week 9- Day 1 of Flower (Day 124 overall) (Day 63 of Flower) Auto Pilot Day 3.. Just watched them be beautiful. I also did a Trichome check today things are moving along nicely. 6/7/2023 Week 9- Day 2 of Flower (Day 125 overall) I admit it I couldn't help it there were some blatant offender leaves blocking the light from some of the canopy buds so they had to go..... and when I took them I found a few more in between leaves that had to go.. so long story short some defoliation did happen.. :-) 6/8/2023 Week 9- Day 3 of Flower (Day 126 overall) Auto pilot re-engaged.. I sat back took some photos and just enjoyed how beautiful this light side and dark side thing the plants are doing The buds are almost as long as my Sharpie. I also applied the last application of my Hermie spray to the clone I took in Apr to reverse it. 6/9/2023 Week 9- Day 4 of Flower (Day 127 overall) Auto Pilot Day 2... :-) It was check in day today for the grow off. Last check in for the competition. Trichomes are looking great.. did another check today will keep an eye on it just incase I need to cut earlier than planned. Tomorrow Water change day! 6/10/2023 Week 9- Day 5 of Flower (Day 128 overall) Auto pilot for the Ladies' but Water Change Day! I added 36 gallons Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Root DRIP = 1Mil/Gal= 36Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil FloraMicro = 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FloraGro= 2.8Mil/Gal= 100Mil FLoraBloom= 4.3Mil/Gal= 155Mil LiquidKoolBloom= 2.5Mil/Gal= 90Mil TPS SIGNAL= 3Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil Water Temp= 71.2 Tent Temp= 76 6/11/2023 Week 9- Day 6 of Flower (Day 129 overall) Auto Pilot Day 4... I just enjoyed the nice smell coming from the tent today, and the contrast between light and dark side buds that they did. 6/12/2023 Week 9- Day 7 of Flower (Day 130 overall) Auto Pilot Day 5. These ladies are looking amazing, the fade is coming in nice purple on plant #3 and really nice yellow on #2.

Sie hält sich bis jetzt noch mit dem Stretch zurück. Hat sich aber trotzdem gut auf ihren Viertel verteilt.

Things are started to get some size to the buds. I upped the nutes PPM this week to 1050. The durban clearly has awhile longer to go while the green crack looks like it might be done sooner then later. I'm debating giving green crack it's first overdrive feeding next week.. we will see how the buds are looking then.. I used to feed a week earlier then I should have so I'm trying not to get too ancy with it yet. Both look great.. some slight light burn so the light went from 100% to 80%... just put up to 90% to see how it reacts.. if any issue I'll go back to 80%.. that might be the most it can handle at 18 inches at this point. Gave a heavy defoliation to both plants tonight after nutrient freeding. I defoliated more of the top leaves to expose more bud sites. Then I defoliated the bottom buds sites that I know won't amount to anything and the twig branches coming from the bottom that don't get any light neither. Took 3 hours to get it all accomplished.. forgot to take before and after pics but both plants were monsters.. not much light could really get thru the top canopy Now light gets thru the entire plant so the lower buds are exposed to light and better air flow for sure. My final defoliation will be 1.5 weeks before harvest.. pretty much at the point I start to consider beginning my flush. That way it will fatten up the buds and help finish the buds that haven't been getting much light. Excited to see the final results.. this my first time really doing a heavy defoliation throughout a plants entire life cycle. It defintely helps final yield if done correctly from what I've seen. I figured I'd give it a try and see how it goes.. so far I'm satisfied with the results.

LAST WATER 6/4 6/5 The sun has been relentless and has caused some bleaching and burns on some older leaves. It seems that the gmos ate having the hardest time (except one). It's been extremely hot though. It's overcast and we are supposed to have thunderstorms and a few more mild days. Plants loved tje water yesterday. I hope it does rain. Plants are growing and seem to be surviving. Burns are on old growth. If I notice more I'll put my back tarp up which will block the sun in the afternoon and put them in shade. I wish I had done that earlier. Oh well. With what these girls have encountered and overcome I think I'll be OK. EDIT: IT WAS IN THE 80'S TODAY. PROBABLY HIT 90. I HAD TO GET MY CAR INSPECTED AND WAS GONE EXPECTING IN THE MORNING THAT THE THUNDERSTORMS WOUKD START. INSTEAD WE HAD A VICIOUSLY SUNNY HOT DAY UNTIL 4PM. AT 4PM SHIT HIT THE FAN AND IT RAINED SO HARD I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE. I LIVE IN MAINE SO I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE IN INCLIMENT WEATHER. THIS WAS ANSOLUTE ZERO VISABILITY. I WANTED TO PUT A TARP UP TO SHIELD THE GIRLS FROM THE SUN BUT I WASNT ABLE TOO. WHEN I GOT TO THE GROW RIGHT BEFORE THE STORM IT HAD RAINED A LITTLE AND IT SMELLED SO GOOD. LIKE SOIL. I THINK THIS DOWNPOUR WILL REALLY HELP THE GIRLS. ONLY TIME WILL TELL. 6/6 Plants faired ok through the storm. The 3 earliest transplants and what WERE the nicest looking gmos are getting some burns and bleaching. It's all on old leaves though. I think they're pulling out of it and will grow through it. Some plants seem to not be stressed at all. With tje elements being the way they have I'm suprised they aren't far worse. I was going to put up my back tarp to block sunlight later in the day but I didn't. The burns are on the other sides of the plants and it's supposed to be overcast with showers for a full day. It's clear right now but the new growth and tops of the plants seem fine now. When I got there a few were limp. As soon as the sun came up though they all perked back up. Only time will tell. 6/7 Showers today. It's good to have a break from that horrific 80-90 degree weather with 90% rh isn't run for me or the plants. Plants are recovering from the burns quite nicely. Obviously the burnt leaves won't repair but they did a good job of shielding some of the others. Things are going. 6/8 Still overcast with showers. I removedc a couple burnt fan leavesxand accidently ripped off a bud site. 6/9 Another overcast day. Rained last night. Soil is saturated from all the rain we've gotten. Plants seem to be settling in nicely. The 3 GMOs that WERE the best looking plants are the ones in the worst shape. The got transplanted a day earlier in a lot of sun and wind. They're coming back though. I've noticed that after it rains and they get even a little sun they grow significantly. Those event horizons are tough. The toasted toffy is a reveg but it looks like its going to be a huge plant. I have the 3 seedlings still in small pots. I'll transplant them soon. 6/10 Overcast and a chance of showers. I removed a few bleached fan leaves on a few of my GMO'S that strain took the most damage. They are bouncing back though. We've had a few dayscof rain and milder weather. Few more days with a chance of showers then back to the sunny days. Plants seem to have come out of shock and out grown the light burn. After the rain, when the sun comes out they grow a noticeable amount. Things are still going fairly well. 6/11 Rained and I didn't do

i feed my plants npk or micro grow bloom and cal magic on mondays and organics and fungia microorgainsims on thursdays splits up feeding sch.

4/1 Tuesday. Moved them into tent 2 4/2 Training day I use 3 different types of LST clips together. 4/4 230am doing good 4/6 2pm End of Week. medium strength nutrients now.

Hello =) schönen Sonntag euch 🌞 🌿 Wochenupdate Die Woche war leider wieder alles andere als ruhig 😅 Ich konnte zwar durch regelmäßiges Absenken des EC den Burn von Notorious stoppen, aber wäre ja langweilig, wenn jetzt gerade in der wichtigen Phase alles gut läuft, oder =D Zum Regulieren habe ich immer feste Summen entnommen, dann die neu zuzufügende Menge auf die vorher berechneten Werte gebracht, und durch gezieltes, getrenntes Einstellen weiterhin ein vollständiges NPK-Profil bei insgesamt niedrigerem Ionenlevel gewährleistet =) ⚖️ Ich bin ja mit recht hohem EC in die Bulking-Phase gestartet, unter der Annahme, das wird gut gehen, wenn ich ein bisschen entspannter fahre und Notorious wieder besser mitmacht. Was ich eher weniger auf dem Schirm hatte, war, dass sich dadurch der Nährstoff- und Ionenbedarf der Pflanzen funktional stark verschoben hat 🤦‍♂️ =D Das Ganze dann in Kombination mit sehr weichem Wasser (wirklich brutal geringe Pufferkapazität 😵‍💫) und entspannterer Lösung – also mehr freiem Wasser und damit mehr Raum für Säureeintrag, führte langsam zu einer zunehmenden Versauerung der Nährstofflösung... Ich habe den sich einschleichenden pH-Drift zunächst als normales Uptake-Pattern bei dem Verhalten meiner höher angesetzten Lösung gedeutet, und den EC durch regelmäßige Top-ups weiter nach unten reguliert, das verbrauchte Wasser ersetzt und den pH wieder nach oben gezogen. Allerdings ausschließlich über Top-ups, ohne aktives pH+ bzw. ohne echten Pufferaufbau. Dabei habe ich leider viel zu spät gecheckt, dass sich das pH-Muster immer weiter nach unten verschiebt =(.. Nach etwa zwei Tagen wurde dann klar, dass es sich um ein Pufferproblem handelt und der pH-Wert bei unverändertem Vorgehen in einen kritischen Bereich rutschen würde. Durch die Verzögerung beim Beschaffen von pH+ stand das System über etwa drei Nächte jeweils mehrere Stunden im zu sauren Bereich (pH 5,3–5,0), was in dieser Phase leider zu einer deutlichen Wachstumsbremse geführt hat 😑🥀 Der Fehler lag nicht im reinen EC-Wert, sondern in der fehlenden Pufferreserve. Das habe ich – FML – bei dem sehr weichen Wasser dummerweise viel zu spät berücksichtigt 🤦‍♂️💀 Nach dem Einbringen von pH+ und dem Auffüllen des Puffers ist das Pattern aber wieder so, wie es sein sollte =) ✅ Das Wurzelsystem hat nach etwa 12 Stunden direkt wieder losgelegt mit gutem Uptake. Ich hatte hier wirklich Glück, dass die Pflanzen lediglich gehemmt waren, und hoffe jetzt, in den letzten 2–3 Wochen noch ein bisschen was gutmachen zu können 🤞🔥 Passiert mir sicher nicht nochmal =D 🌸 Pflanzenstatus & Training Aktuell durch die letzte Woche hier nicht allzu viel zu berichten.. Blueberry Cupcake zieht den Frost weiter an und sie riecht traumhaft =) Ich habe auch den Eindruck, dass sie die Woche noch am besten mitgemacht hat. Entwicklungstechnisch wirkt es so, als könnte hier noch etwas kommen, da noch viele weiße Stigmen sichtbar sind – vor allem an den Seiten der Buds 🌿 Vom jetzigen Stand hoffe ich auf noch 2–3 Wochen =)=)🔥 Purpz hat ebenfalls gelitten und nicht sonderlich viel in Stacking investiert. Der Frost zieht auch hier schön weiter an, allerdings haben sich leichte Verfärbungen auf den Blättern gezeigt 🍂 Insgesamt sieht sie immer noch heftig aus, gerade deshalb ärgert mich die Handbremse hier wirklich … schöner Pheno 💜 Notorious hat einfach fast eine Pause eingelegt =D Das Frostbild ist weiterhin schön, allerdings ist sie in ihrer Entwicklung fast stehen geblieben.. Ich vermute, dass der zuvor hohe EC in Kombination mit der pH-Thematik hier deutlich mehr genagt haben 😣 Positiv ist jedoch, dass sie nicht weiter abgebaut, sondern lediglich kurz pausiert hat und jetzt gefühlt dort weitermacht, wo sie aufgehört hat =) Sie stackt auch wieder etwas =D Guzzlerz hat ja von Anfang an zu kämpfen gehabt, und ich habe das Gefühl, dass ihr genau das jetzt zugutekommt =D Sie entwickelt sich konstant weiter und hat sogar unter den Bedingungen der letzten Woche noch etwas an Masse aufgebaut. Sie hat einen angenehmen, süßlichen, flachen Duft 🍯 fast karamellartig, finde ich =) ⚙️ System Jetzt wieder Top-up-Logik weiterfahren =) VPD: 1,20 kPa CO₂: 700–800 ppm im Durchschnitt 🌫️ EC: 1.500–1.600 µS/cm PPFD: 1.000 µmol/m²/s Vielen Dank mal wieder für eure Zeit 🙏 =) Schöne Woche euch und gesunde Plants 🌱💚

Runtz Punch is growing strong. She has reached maturity and is ready to flower. She will need some hst at some point for sure. Probably switch to flowering in a week. Thank you Spider Farmer, Athena, and Herbies Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

I will be focusing this diary on the smoothie strain but you’ll be seeing some other plants in the tent that are not the same strain. I only have room in this tent so bare with me. There are 2 Smoothie, 1 CNC, and 1 Stardawg (dog). The smoothie are the two bigger ones in the back of the tent. Now, the Smoothie from FastBuds is just killin it right now. Since I popped the beans they have done nothing but show signs of greatness. I don’t think this one is gonna slow down much either. I’m going to push these plants harder than my last harvest. I had a really really amazing harvest last time. I was even able to pull sap out of all 4 plants. 2 Zkittles and 2 LSD-25. This was all done by feeding at the right times and keeping a “moist” soil. Also I want add that I ran pretty much the entire line of Nectar for the Gods at a little less then the recommended ratios. This time I plan on going a tiny bit over the recommended ratios just to see what these plants will do. Trust me, if the plants have a bad response I will go back to the recommended ratios. The reason I want to do this is because I really think these auto strains can handle a lot more than a regular flowering cycle plant would. They can handle more stress, that’s for sure. When do you think I should add a compost tea into my regimen? Soon or wait till the plant is a little larger?
