Week 7 – Day 51 (BT27) A quiet week for RedPure#4 – mostly just watering, observing, and removing an occasional leaf 🍃 The stretch seems to be coming to an end. Height is stable at 40 cm, and space is still manageable 😅 Her buds continue to swell and look very promising 🍇 However, the drain pH remains low at 5.7, which might explain some of the issues she’s showing. After some digging, I suspect the combination of BioBizz soil and Advanced Nutrients is the cause. BioBizz relies on microbes for pH buffering, unlike Plagron or Canna, which use dolomite lime. On top of that, I’m feeding the microbes with Bud Candy – which likely lowers the pH even further 🔬 📌 Takeaway: If you're using Advanced Nutrients, a substrate like Plagron Growmix or Canna Terra might be more compatible. With BioBizz, the pH in runoff stays constantly low despite using water with pH 6.6. RedPure remains the most sensitive strain in the tent – but also one of the most aromatic 🌸💜

The ladies are giving all the signs that they are ready to be harvested. Leafs yellowing. Most hairs are now dark. Under the microscope it looks good. Been flushing for a week now. As I still see some under developed I will let it run another week before harvest. Looking forward to this!

Gonna start flushing next watering and get my fade going, can tell she’s been missing nitrogen for a while as she’s already yellowing in spots. She’s looking pretty good.

No res change right now, still working with a fresh res. Low PPM, pH is dropping, leaves are turning crisp. Added some H202 today. They slowed water uptake, nutrient uptake, have had some heat spikes with weather and 3rd light, turned down 3rd light to about 80% power.

The smell is getting stronger and the buds and trichomes are swelling, I’m planning on starting flushing at the end of the week. The smell is strong mixed berry and when you lean in a bit closer it has a bit of a chemy smell

Day 155 - Watering 7l solution rain water with 4 mL Top-Max and 4 mL Bio-Bloom, 1mL of calmag Solution ph 6.3, ppm 550, runoff ppm 1060, ph 6.3 looking at the trichs I think around 2 weeks until harvest. Day 158 - Watering 7l solution rain water with 3 mL Top-Max and 2 mL Bio-Bloom, 0.5mL of calmag Solution ph 6.6, ppm 350 runoff ppm 1100, ph 6.4 Looking at runoff it's good I reduced nutrients. I will start flushing from next watering. Thinking of maybe giving blackstrap molasses for last few waterings. Will she how is ppm after next straight rainwater watering and decide. Smells very strong right now and trich are still mostly clear with around 25% cloudy going towards 50%. Day 161 - Watering 7l solution rain water 7.5 ph, 30 ppm Water ph 7.5, ppm 30 runoff ppm 1040, ph 6.5

This is my second plant in my grower life.

1/10 Week 9 Long way to go but so long as before, things looking good Rehung the lights picked up four more inches of height which I HAD to have or burn Octopussy. The run down: In Flower tent Full Bloom nuets Pussy Galore (FF7) stretch has ended she is bulking like crazy Octopussy(LSD) Stretch finally ending she has more room now Plenty (GC) Just a damn beautiful plant bulking starting great, stretch been gone for a couple of days now Half n' Half 12ml/gal Grow 12ml/gal Bloom + kanga Solitaire (CC) Getting larger entering full flower will switch when I see more hair Chew Mee (F2) Ditto Bambi (F6) Ditto as well In auto tent switching to 12-12 today - Still on 20ml/gal GrowA/B +kanga Dink(FF2) Is just doing great! Tiffany Case - Gold Leaf ditto Thumper - FB FFT-8 Ditto Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7 Ditto Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf Ditto Clones: .75ml/L Grow A/B All made it though not all will be selected having to start that process now as they wont want to stay in those solos very long 1/13 Reduced bloom nuets for full flower seeing a bit of sign the N is too high. All others look solid so took it down 20% leaving PK as is 1/14 Everything got a dose of Neem oil, pots only Some didnt like the bloom nuet drop putting it back Wondering about the LSD/Octopussy first time growing this in photo so kind of winging it. Not sure if something is at her or just the way it grows. Dont see anything unexpected still dealing with a small population of gnats. Prob never be rid of them until we can get toxic on em. Auto tent is coming along began introducing bloom nuets to all 16ml/gal GrowA/B 4ml/gal Bloom Dink, its hard to imagine that plant a month ago Clones got a coat of Neem oil a bit of white fungus was trying to set up 12/16 Its all looking good, the issues we have we expected Made up the last pot for the clones with about 4 gallons of coco/perlite left over out of the original 40 gallons of coco, not bad 😎 May well be the last pot I make up here, *sniff sniff* 😜 Good night and thanks for all the fish

I made a concoction of living soil using ingredients I could find of subcools formula. Theoretically all i need to add is ph balanced water. And a tea once I decide to flower. I'm waiting for some gadgets[ph and moisture meters]to come in before doing any extensive watering.

Harvested 5 out of 7 pics and videos soon..... loading.....

The swell is underway! Some are leaning over from the weight. I took a tester and few days ago, just smoked it, and I'm impressed! I can't wait to get this cured and ready and taste her again! Thanks for looking!

Girls went into flowering . Critical is looking a little better.

Wow very good growth on her this week, doing VERY well in her tiny 1L airpot! She has a really thick stem already. I am worried she's not an autoflower though... Let's leave her for a few more weeks and see if she enters flowering.

Pow pow and it’s already Week8 Girls are definitely in stretch now getting some training on ScrOG net to fill this tent in full. Somewhere this week they will all go through defoliation process and planning to lower the upper net. EC this week going up to 2.0 Temps around 26C Humidity around 60% Stay tuned with photo updates 🤘 Video update Day6 - defoliation done, second net done, all plants on same level done. Stretching very nice in last few days 😍

Another Fast buds Whoo Hooo im excited for this one! Germination has started ill post a update when i notice a change :D This will be the most detailed diary ever!

AUGUST 10 to 16, 2024 Specimen continues to grow vigorously, gaining another 12cm (4.75") in height. Pistils now being pushed out in many locations. Plant receives 14:26 of daylight as sunrise is 06:49 and sunset is 21:15. Fungus gnat presence has multiplied, so effort put to dry out medium and layers of Diatomaceous Earth applied on two occasions. Watered in with Bacillus Thuringiensis Israelensis (delivered via Mosquito Dunks soaked in rainwater for 24 hours) in effort to combat and destroy larvae. Based on development to date, not expecting to harvest specimen until the week of October 14, 2024. Day 106 - Applied 2.0L of Full Spectrum Soil Drench (Flowering Formula), pH'd to 6.7; Solution prepared with rainwater treated with Bacillus Thuringiensis Israelensis; 500mL bottom watered with plain rainwater. Sprayed soil surface thoroughly with approximately 1L of Soil Pest Defense Drench. Day 107 - Applied layer of Diatomaceous Earth to combat Fungus Gnats Day 108 - n/a Day 109 - n/a Day 110 - 1.5L bottom water with plain rainwater in the morning, another 1L bottom water in the late afternoon. Day 111 - Applied layer of Diatomaceous Earth to combat Fungus Gnats Day 112 - n/a

This ladies got pretty big for real, hands down the biggest autos I've ever had grown in 7l pots, excellent performance, and the flowers start to stink really strong, there is one pheno which is more developed than the other 2 phenos but the 3 have developed really good and they are producing a lot of sticky and stinky trichomes! Let's see how this will end up! Can't wait 🤤

Growing fast
