Greetings Growmies, We're closing the ninth week of our G.M.O. journey, and our green beauties are a living ledger of our cultivation narrative. They've weathered the shifts in their environment with a vigor that only the finest genetics can provide. Pheno #1 and Pheno #2 stand as living contrasts in our canopy, telling their own unique stories. Pheno #1, compact and sturdy, is a marvel of efficiency. Its dense growth form speaks to a hidden world of potential beneath its foliage, with promising signs of floral development. Meanwhile, Pheno #2 has become a titan of height, towering over its sibling with a stretch that has closed the gap in the race towards the light. Our feeding regimen remains unchanged, but its effects are now pronounced in the burgeoning buds of Pheno #2. This tall contender, although further along in bud development, still shares the same insatiable thirst for nutrients as its shorter counterpart. It's clear that both phenotypes have embraced the SCROG method, each in their own way, optimizing their exposure to the light source that feeds their lush canopies. It's a delicate balance we maintain, as Pheno #1's squat structure has resulted in a massive upward push, racing to catch up with the vertical aspirations of Pheno #2. The sheer force of their growth is a testament to their robust nature and the careful orchestration of their environment. Photographs capture the essence of their journey, with Pheno #1's closer nodes indicating a powerhouse in a small package, while Pheno #2's expansive reach across the SCROG net is an ode to strategic cultivation. As we stand on the precipice of full bloom, we watch with bated breath, our efforts culminating in a spectacle of floral profusion. As different as night and day, these two phenotypes remind us of the wonder of genetics and the rewards of attentive husbandry. May the weeks ahead unfold in a flourish of trichomes and terpenes, each plant reaching the peak of its potential. Stay lifted, Salokin

Hello Growmies, We're cruising through week 7, and the Purple Lemonade FF cultivars have hit a significant growth milestone. The transition from their cozy spots below the SCROG screen to towering figures is nothing short of spectacular. Their vertical surge isn't just impressive—it's a beacon that signals a promising future as we near the flowering phase. Purple Lemonade #1 has undoubtedly embraced her vertical journey, becoming a pinnacle of vegetative success. Her structure, once dwarfed by her counterparts, now stands with confidence and poise. It's evident that her foundations are strong, and she's ready for the abundance that the flowering phase promises. Purple Lemonade #2 isn't far behind, her vertical gains amplifying her reach towards the nourishing light. The SCROG technique has served her well, and now, it's as if she's stretching out her branches in gratitude, ready to showcase the fruits of our labor and her genetic prowess. The nutritional regimen continues to support this impressive growth, with Alga Bloom, Sugar Royal, Power Buds, and Orca ensuring a well-rounded diet that fortifies their development. The result is a lush green vibrancy that's hard to miss—a testament to the balanced care they receive. Our Purple Lemonades have flourished alongside their neighbors, Caramel and Bruce Banner x White Russian, each contributing to a microclimate of stability and growth within the tent. Their recent spurt is a testament to their resilient nature, proving that even the smallest can rise to meet the light. It's a visual and symbolic narrative of growth that resonates deeply. Purple Lemonade #1, with her flourishing canopy, and Purple Lemonade #2, with her expansive reach, demonstrate the diversity and adaptability within this strain. They're ready to embark on the flowering journey, and we're ready to witness the full extent of their potential unfold. Stay lifted, Salokin

Hello Growmies, As we enter the ninth week with our Caramel cultivars, it's clear that stability and uniformity are the hallmarks of this strain. They've displayed a consistency in growth patterns that has made them stand out among their peers in the tent. Their resilience is commendable, and the garden has become a testament to these plants' innate robustness. Plant #1, #2, and #3 each continue their journey with a unique charm. The uniform growth pattern they've maintained is impressive, offering a beautiful spectacle of symmetry and vitality. Despite being slightly behind the expert setup plants in terms of bud development, the spacing and the emerging pistils are indicators of the bountiful blooms to come. The feeding regimen has continued without interruption, and the Caramels have responded well to the nurturing they've received. The SCROG technique has been instrumental in crafting an evenly distributed canopy, which has allowed for optimum light penetration and air flow, setting the stage for an even and abundant flowering phase. The environmental conditions remain precisely controlled, and the Caramels are basking in the glow of the PPFD levels, absorbing all the energy required for their imminent flowering burst. It's a dance of light and life that we witness each day, with each plant inching closer to its peak potential. While the Caramels are a bit behind in bud formation, the foundations are robust. The little fuzzy formations that are beginning to take shape are promising signs of the rich harvest that awaits. As the plants transition further into the flowering stage, we expect to see a significant increase in trichome production and bud density. In the realm of the grow tent, these Caramels are indeed my favorites, displaying the attributes of a well-cared-for crop: robustness, consistency, and potential. We will continue our diligent care and precise environmental adjustments to usher these plants through to a successful harvest. As always, it's the collective wisdom of this community that elevates our cultivation practices. Together, we nurture, we learn, and we grow. Stay lifted, Salokin

Hello Growmies! We've reached the remarkable week 16 with our tenacious plant, and the developments are simply astounding. Following a week of dedicated flushing, the plant continues to mature gracefully, showcasing an unwavering commitment to quality as she ripens. I'll maintain the reverse osmosis (RO) water regimen until she ceases sprouting fresh white pistils, a testament to her ongoing development. It's a delicate balancing act, providing enough support for her increasingly heavy branches burdened by significant gains, yet the plant's structural integrity remains a priority. Visually, the transformation is captivating; she's commencing a magnificent fade, with the unaffected foliage adopting a rich, deep purple hue, bordering on an almost blackish tone – a stunning display of her natural lifecycle. This chromatic shift isn't just aesthetically pleasing; it's a clear sign of the plant's life cycle progressing towards its grand finale. The chlorosis-free leaves, once vibrant and full of life, are now taking on this regal, somber palette, indicating that maturity isn't far off. Moreover, the trichome-laden buds are a sight to behold, their calyxes continue to swell, and the once slender branches now require additional support to sustain their own weight. It's evident the rigorous cultivation efforts are paying off – the plant's resilience and your attentiveness have aligned perfectly, resulting in an abundance of almost golfball-sized nuggets that shimmer with resin. Every plant tells a story, and this one is about to reach its crescendo – the careful nurturing, the attentive adjustments to the feeding schedule, and the delicate handling of her structure have all contributed to this moment. As we continue with the RO water and witness the plant's final stages, it's clear that the harvest will be one to remember. Stay lifted, Salokin.

Some LST and defoliation very start of week happy with the result will repeat process end of next week 🌱🌳

Day 52: Trained them. Sprayed them with nutrients and essential oils. Light intensity: 25klux 350PPF

Do not pay attention to the temperature on the thermometer in the middle, it lies by a couple of degrees. I have a good thermometer on top of the box that shows the temperature. Day 29: After a terrible fracture, we see that the plant is beginning to recover. I'm honestly disappointed because it makes it very difficult for me to train mainlining and it will also increase the amount of time it takes to grow. Day 30: It looks much better already, I could superprune the right branch, but I don't want to stress it. I will try to bend the right branch harder, I will bend the left one a little in the morning the next day, maybe early. Day 31: This morning I cut the lower leaves, photo in the evening and continued the LST training after the injury. Photo in the evening. Day 32: I am completely sure that the plant has moved away from the stress, but we can see on the left circle, the right bud (and side) slowed growth. Day 34: I saw traces of salt on the tips of the new leaves, so now I pour water with regular 15 PPM.

Just watering growing

Day #21 Defoliation Not topped (left) Topped (right). Super impressed so far.

Week 2 of flower The Red Hot Cookies and Lemon Orange are really stretching out. Glad I put them at the back of the tent. The Mimosa X Orange Punch is taking her time as far as flowering goes. The Black Apple Hitchcock (there is a separate diary for this plant) has been even slower transitioning into flower. But all in all the plants are happy so I am happy. 6.0 pH 500 ppm 65F water temp 71 tent temp 41 % RH

Stopped with Ripen (should’ve switched to it earlier). Beginning flush with pH tested water for till harvest.

Bloombastic putting in that work! Stinks like crazy now. Super strong sweet Lemon terps Stopped Bloombastic & DualPart feed. Switched to Ripen for few feeds before starting flush.
