Runoff ph is a bit high this time. Don’t know why. Around 6.8. Average ph going in is 6.0. Also the big fan leaves on ice cream cakes are kind of strange shaped. Will see how they are going to look later.

June 28, 2023 Day 50 Zkittlez One: Height: 24.5" DLI: 52 mol/m²/d Light Height: 22" Zkittlez Two: Height: 28.5" DLI: 55 mol/m²/d Light Height: 18" This week will focus on Zkittlez One and getting her thinned out properly. I hope to have that finished by the end of the week. I've also raised the light again to keep the distance at 22" above the canopy. It's also helping Zkittlez Two. As she is a 28.5" plant, she was definitely a bit too close to the light. The other plants in the tent may not have enough light from the higher light height. I'm not sure for good or bad. Zkittlez One has hit the 24" plus mark! She looks fantastic. I definitely need to thin out the foliage a bit. I'll wait for her to finish up. But I'll just pull a few here and there as needed. However, I don't expect much more stretch out of her. Maybe a couple more days? We shall see. Water looks great. The stacks coming off this lady are, IMO, fantastic. The whole canopy is covered in tops and shoots still reaching. Honestly, if she was alone in the tent, I'm pretty sure I could have trained her wall to wall. Alas, I have 3 other plants in there who also need light space. Lol. Zkittlez Two is also looking great! She's filling out a bit still and building up those buds. I have a bit of confusion with her top. The buds are very skinny at the top and get fatter in the mid range of the plant. Around where the side branches grew to. Happily, they match the height of Zkittlez One. Or just a bit lower. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 62.3% (still super humid here) VPD: 1.07 kPa June 29, 2023 Zkittlez One This plant has been a beast the whole time. Now she is getting too big for the tent and way too big to accommodate 4 plants as I have in there now. The canopy is super deep and needs a good thinning out. Speaking of thinning out, I decided to remove the outer leaves to open more space for the other plants. I'll be doing this over the course of the next couple days. She also got a full reservoir refill today. Cleaned up the reservoir as well. Zkittlez Two This lady needs absolutely nothing. Just hanging out and showing me what I should be expecting for bud production out of Zkittlez One. Honestly, I think I need a bigger tent already. I've had this 3x3 for 3 grows and I'm discovering the disadvantage of a smaller tent. Plus the thing people seem to think is best is compact plant. I don't need mine compact. I can grow in my state without issues. The humidity is still super high. So far I haven't found a solution. I have 2 dehumidifiers in there. That didn't work at all. It's the main room the tent is in. It's super humid in there due to the weather. Tent door has been open for days. I'll ask what to do. Maybe someone has an idea. Update: So I was looking over Zkittlez One this afternoon and realized taking the tie downs out made the plant compact, but a bit too compact. So after some testing I figured out that I needed to tie down the lowest 4 branches to open up the center of the canopy. It worked WONDERS! The 4 branches along with all of the tops from each one spread out perfectly, completely opening up the whole canopy. She is seriously huge now. See pic. Just WOW I've also added a video to show her mass. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 62.1% VPD: 1.08 kPa June 30, 2023 Zkittlez One is the boss of this grow. She'll need another watering tomorrow morning. I snipped off some outside leaves today. And a couple blocking bud sites and more tops. A quarter turn made a bit more room for the other plants in the tent. Well, except Zkittlez Two. She is in the way back almost engulfed by Zkittlez One. Zkittlez Two has some awesome bud production going on. She may need a watering soon as well. Anyway, the whole plant is covered as I thought it would be. The buds haven't even started to swell yet. It's just going to be that much bigger. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.9° RH: 64.4% VPD: 1.01 kPa July 1, 2023 Zkittlez One looks absolutely amazing. Massive and still growing. She's nearly 30" wide. 24" deep. She is also 25.5" tall. I don't know if this is big for an autoflower, but I assume it is. It's the biggest I've ever grown. She doesn't need water yet, but at her rate, she may need another gallon tomorrow. I snipped off just a couple more leaves today, just opening air flow and bud sites. Zkittlez Two looks great as ever. I decided to finally pull some fan leaves. Just the main stem ones and a couple that was completely covering another branch or facing inward. She'll need a new reservoir tomorrow. My major concern is how much she is squished in the back. With the 4 plants in there and that one massive Zkittlez, the 2 vegging plants need all the light they can get, which puts this lady in the corner. I was honestly considering moving her to my dry Tent and popping the light back in there. Something else I noticed is the bud structure. They seem quite wispy maybe it's just how they form for now. But they are also really skinny. Especially the main cola. I'll have to keep an eye on that and see what I can do about it, if anything. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.5° RH: 63.3% VPD: 1.06 kPa July 2, 2023 Zkittlez One is now officially in the flowering stage. I'd say 2 days ago, but now the buds are really forming. The top of the canopy reads out at an impressive 26.5" tall. 29" in diameter. More bud sites and tops that I'm willing to count. Just a lot. She's going to need more water first thing tomorrow. Maybe later this afternoon. She's super thirsty and that's a great thing. I've also managed to thin the whole plant out. Not a full defoliation, but a few leaves here and there for about a week. Now she looks near perfect. Zkittlez Two looks great! Still buried in the back and the buds are still pretty wispy. At least the ones up top. Lower bud production is fantastic! Big fat buds. I might have to drop the intensity very soon to save the main cola. She's definitely not as thirsty as Zkittlez One and I am still a bit concerned about that. She did however finish stretching at 29" tall. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.5° RH: 62.2% VPD: 1.05 kPa July 3, 2023 I dropped the light intensity down from 90% to 80% last night. Zkittlez One was drooping about 4 hours before lights out. I read somewhere that too much light can cause that. So we shall see how it looks tonight. Zkittlez One needs more trimming I think. She looks great, but she has an 18" deep canopy and I'd rather give light to the whole thing. The top 5" are fine, but below that is a thick floor of foliage. I trimmed some of it away today, it I'm gonna need to continue for a bit. At least some for next 2 weeks. Every other day. Healthy is an understatement with this plant. She is really tall with the whole setup with bottom reservoir. 40" from floor to top. Impressive. Zkittlez Two is so stuffed in the wall, I feel bad. I might have to take her out and put her in my dry tent with a 100 watt light. That is still up for debate. It's an extra 100 watts of power I'd be using. However, the extra space will certainly give the whole plant more light coverage and produce better buds I think. I'm going to try and maneuver them in the current tent and see what I can do. Update: So Zkittlez Two was really squished in the corner. So I removed one of the smaller plants and moved Zkittlez Two diagonally to Zkittlez One. I also got to pull the 4 main side branches out for better light penetration. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.2° RH: 62.7% VPD: 1.07 kPa July 4, 2023 Zkittlez One is still growing a bit I think. The grow light is only 18.5" above the canopy now. Where it should be at 22" I'll have to see what I can do. Doing great on water and healthy as ever. I did start a bit of pruning. The popcorn buds on the bottom of the canopy. I'm not cutting the longer branches though. I feel like that might cause more stress. But I'm going to pull off popcorn buds for the rest of next week and of course remove fan leaves as needed. Every leaf is super healthy, just in the way of air flow and light. Zkittlez Two is much better in the front of the tent diagonal from her sister plant. Much more space. And with the side branches pulled out, I expect to see much better bud development. She's still a slow drinker, but I'm starting to think it's the humidity that's preventing her from drinking more. This is an entire week or more of humidity and lack of the right equipment. So I'm really hoping I don't end up with bud rot or mold. I don't think I'll get mold because of the air circulation. But bud rot later on is very possible. Maybe not probable though. I don't know. I don't have much experience with it, so yah. Either way, the grow tent door will be kept open to keep the humidity at a kind of reasonable level. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.6° RH: 65.9% VPD: 0.95 kPa

Last week of flowering just finished! This plant showed some great results, the buds gets nice and fat, and slightly above average thc production, but not extreme thc like covering all the leaves, i think this is going to be a nice daily smoke without knocking you out totally! The smell is great, just what i expected from a wedding cake! We will now harvest in some days and start to dry her 😁

6/2 she is in flower and doing well. Not sure how I feel about my lst method. Most of the plant is only a few inches above the soil. She is spread out well and with some tucking and defoliation all the sights are getting good light. 6/3 she is stretching and looking good. She received a top dressing with Gaia green today. Her pot was damp. The next time she needs water, she will get some great white and will see what else I have to dump in the pot. I'm happy with her so far. Top dressing her was a bit of a challenge. She is so low to the soil, that it's hard not to get the amendments on some leaves. Not very important leaves that should probably be removed anyway. She is in flower, so I can probably take some of the lst spikes out. Let her get off the ground some. Have the light turned up to 80 percent. She has been spending a lot of time outside. The sky has been so clear for the past 3 weeks. It's weird there has been no clouds in the sky, until today. She comes inside when the sun starts to go down. 6/4 she seems to be growing well. She is starting to fill the pot and growing up. Buds are coming along, she is starting to be aromatic and smelling nice. 6/5 not much to report today. Cloudy the past few day so she stayed in the house under the se3000 on full blast. She seems very happy, she was fed this week and I expect to see a jump in the next week or 2. 6/7 she is 35 days old today. She has great color and buds look like they're going to be dense. Mesphito clams this is a pungent strain. I did some stem rubbing and the smell seemed very weak. I have a cheese from seed mafia growing in a 1 gallon 1 week younger and is very pungent. Guess that this could all change.

Bonjour à tous les padawans et maîtres jedis Pour la germination j'utilise la technique du sopalin Pour faire germer vos graines dans du sopalin, vous aurez besoin : Un Tupperware avec couvercle Du Sopalin, ou autre quel papier de cuisine qui soit épais et qui retienne l’eau Un verre d’eau Si c’est l’hiver, vous placerez le Tupperware près d’une Box ou d’un Modem pour donner un peu de chaleur Étapes de la germination: faire germer vos graines de cannabis dans du sopalin La première chose à faire est de tapisser le fond du Tupperware avec du sopalin, 2-3 feuilles suffiront. Si vous ne mettez qu’une feuille, elle captera peu d’eau et pourra sécher, vous mettrez donc plus de feuilles que pas assez. Une fois les feuilles placées, versez l’eau du verre dessus, mais pas trop, juste de quoi imbiber toute la surface couverte par les feuilles. Vous aurez ainsi l’eau suffisante pour faire germer les graines sans avoir besoin d’essorer la feuille de papier. Une fois les feuilles humidifiées, mettez vos graines par-dessus, et recouvrez le tout avec une autre couche de quelques serviettes. Une fois en place, humidifiez cette nouvelle couche. faire germer vos graines de cannabis dans du sopalin Lorsque vous graines seront placées entre les 2 couvertures de feuilles, fermez le Tupperware hermétiquement pour que l’eau reste bien dedans et que l’ensemble ne sèche pas malgré la chaleur. Si vous êtes en hiver lorsque vous mettrez vos graines à germer, ou que les températures sont inférieures à 20°C, vous placerez le Tupperware sur votre Box ou modem jusqu’à germination, mais toujours en évitant le contact avec la lumière. Si vous êtes dans une zone au climat tempéré ou chaud, vous n’aurez qu’à placer le récipient avec les graines à l’ombre dans une armoire ou une caisse de rangement. Toutes les 24h, vous devrez vérifier l’état d’avancement de la germination. Si quelques-unes sont sorties mais pas d’autres, prenez celles qui ont germé pour les planter, laissez les autres dans le Tupperware et vérifier de nouveau le lendemain.

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been much change this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plant. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more room for light. Then finally switched to 12/12.. After just 36 hours after the defoliation there was a major change. New growth everywhere, colas started stretching upwards fast. It's like she already knows it's flowering time. Great reaction to the defoliation and 12/12 switch. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how she flowers. Stay safe!

Not gonna chop them in the recommended flowering time There´s still too many clear trichomes, I´m waiting till more become amber Harvested on flowering day 68. Can´t really find clear trichomes anymore and don´t wanna risk any mold They are drieing in the tent with 61% humidity and 15°C . Trying to te raise themperature by 2/3 degree, but I don´t really bother because it should be fine like this

The plants are coming along nicely for the most part. I have been finding bud rot in big mama... not much but I'm a little bit worried. I've been cutting it out when I find it. The trichomes are cloudy with sparse amber. The wind has been a concern the past week or so. I shared a video which kind of gives an idea of what we are dealing with. We are looking at harvest two weeks out - max. Maybe sooner. FFT2 is significantly behind the other varieties... fattening up more slowly.

Missed last week update but did some cutting girls have to live up to the mission 73 between the 5 plant....added one more which was a cutting from a seed plant harvested previous...didn't look like I did anything so cut dem a few day later 85 between the same plants... only cut the lower half of G4 n smaller inside branches( going to stop they dont hold up well)
