This week everything looks great and growing green!!!

This lovely lady is suffering from a little bit of what appears to be a calcium deficiency which is being remedied now with some calmag. Other than that she is doing great. The buds are fattening up real good. She is starting to develop some minty notes and is frosting up nicely.

Hello everyone, I've had a busy week, so this is what I have for you guys See y'all next week 🤘🤘

started LST just at end of week 3 and into week 4 ,then decided that these girls may not be suited to this procedure. Will just let them do their thing. Have also adopted 2 Green Gelato from a friend that have some issue's, will have a go an see if they get better.

Hello everyone 😎 Week 9 of flower for the strawberry banana auto from Fast Buds 🍓🍌 One was ready ! She grew fast with beautiful color,for the nutrient 4ml/L terra bloom & 1ml/L power buds next week i will introduce Green sensation at very low doses from Plagron ✔️ Now only plain water💧 Amazing smell 🤤super fruity 🍓🍌 The buds are super sticky ✂️ Mars hydro SP-6500 100% Have a nice day 😋

This week I added a new controller to handle up to 8 functions. I installed a new heater, my old humidifier and some LED strips to the controller. Targeting a VPD at 1.0 day and night. Trying to keep the nutrient ppm under 900 and ph at 6.0 in the reservoirs. Ordered a second ph pen because I don’t trust my readings. Will be here by Thursday. Friday: Checked the ppm in the reservoirs and it’s at 1,000. Added more RO water with extra nitrogen to bring the ppm level down to 925. Saturday: I installed an updated AC Infinity controller 69 Pro Plus (controls 8 pieces of equipment) which allowed me to add a humidifier, corner LEDs and a heater to the controller. Overall I’m extremely impressed with this AC Infinity equipment. My VPD is within the range I want to achieve (.8-1.1). I programmed it to maintain 78 degrees and 67% humidity during the day, 73 degrees and 63% humidity at night. Charts posted also show the impact of an open tent compared to the closed environment. The heater is constantly pushing fresh air into the tent, so I don’t need to cycle the exhaust fan often. Rewired the tent again and moved the controller later that night. I mounted the controller on the wall. Added Mars Hydro UV/IR lighting to fill out all 8 slots on the controller. Sunday: I checked the ph in the reservoirs (6.8….i had filled it with 6.0 ph) and the ppm (1200 ppm…I had filled it with 900). So evaporation and possibly a mismeasurement of ph. I topped ff reservoirs with slightly stronger nutes and adjusted ph to 5.8 in the reservoirs. Poor magnesium absorption could be driving some leaf yellowing. Effective tomorrow, I’m switching over to Heads Formula which consistently feeds GH Flora series nutes at Micro (6ml/g), Bloom (9ml/g) and cal mag (3ml/g). Turned on the UV/IR lights for 3 minutes every 8 hours. I’m easing the plants up to 5 minutes every 6 hours which will provide the recommended 20 minutes of IR per day. This will help the plants stretch a little more. Monday: checked ph and ppm in reservoirs. 6.1ph and 880ppm. VPD remains stable except when I open the tent. Tuesday: checked ph (6.4) and ppm (880) in reservoirs. Added .5ml of ph down to two reservoirs. Still see slight yellowing between the veins but it’s not getting worse (might be improving). Adjusting ph down to 6.0 target might have solved this. The plants grew by 1-2” last night…..is the infrared light working already? Decided to mix up fresh nutes for the reservoirs following Heads formula. 6ml Micro and 9ml Bloom per gallon of RO water. Added 5 ml of CalMag too. Ending ppm was 1080 which is too high, so I diluted down to 880 with RO water. 6.0 ph. Wednesday: plants grew another .75 inches last night. I topped above the 5th node. Thursday: added RO water with heavy cal mag to reservoirs to increase amount of CalMag available.

Everything is going great Royal Gorilla is the farthest along . It is very compact and starting to get a little frosty. Green Gelato is the second farthest along. Doing well. It is very spaced out LSD is coming along. I think because it has probably double the branches, it is taking longer to develop HulkBerry was put into 12/12 4 days later but is looking good. Plant structure is very similar to the Green Gelato

02/08/2022 And this one is going to flowering room Need to up pot one more then they will all be flowering soon

Harvested after 3 days flush and two days night after recommended 9 weeks. Got 2 phenos. One better and more representative of the strain description which i kept a clone of to S1 and stabilize. As usual uploading here is a pita it didnt upload my videos again really annoying, but pics show the better strain is stronger bramches, stretchier, and better buds. I cut them in the video so no one cries i didnt harvest lol. Smell is from sourish sweet to sweet and mossy like a green slurpy or something. 6 week testers were potent and frosty already so i cant imagine after proper harvest and cure.

Dropped light hours down to 16 . Topped off nutrient solution with 5.0 ph evened out .removed none chosen phenos to be flowered in separate room no longer tracking those we will only follow the chosen mothers clones i cut clones today as well had the lady friend clean floor with bleach and dawn put clones in ez cloner 32 systems

Almost ready. Look at the main bud 🤩 I will update fresh photos throughout the week.

Nothing too crazy to report from this week; her smell is potent and shes covered in trichomes. Touching the plant covers my hands and arms in sticky resin-like glue. 😁😁 I am very happy with the state of my secret garden. Considering this is the first shot; the internet and others in the grow diaries community have really put me onto the right course. Thanks! Ive been defoliation both plants as and when needed and from the trim i have been making cannabutter for baking :) Ive also taken some pics in the dark to highlight the trichome production :):) RQS northern lights has had a better start than QO and its really starting to show; she's overtaking QO and just starting to flower now... she is massive! Far far bigger than I was expecting. Shes almost 80cmx80cm in canopy area. Similar nutrient mix used as last week barring the change to 15ml/10L of PK13/14 from 10ml/10L 40ml/10L of a+b 15ml/10L of PK13/14 1 drop of superthrive ph ~6 ppm ~1150

Had some issues with the big fan leaves on the lower nodes. They weren’t doing so great, turning brown and brittle so I cut them off today. Hopefully that helps, probably should have done it sooner but I was a little worried I was going to kill it or something. It’s still growing though, lots of new growth and a few branches growing potential bud sites so I think it’s ok. The reason the leaves were dying? Could have been the low humidity. Could have been underwatering (she’s sucking up the water really quickly, needs to be transplanted). Maybe I have the light too close, realized today it’s only 8 inches away, I was just eyeballing it. If you know the proper distance for this Mars Hydro TS1000 LED please comment below. I will be transplanting this week on Thursday when my new Air-pots come. Goals for this week: Figure out exactly how much I should be feeding this thing, it’s possible it needs cal-Mag added to the food? If you know about nutrients please comment below. I am using the General Organics GoBox. Hopefully cutting those leaves will lead to some new growth. I checked out the gross of some of you that have commented. You all are doing awesome I know there is a lot I can learn from this community and appreciate any help you can give. I don’t really have a lot of time for research these days with my work schedule and children and there is a lot of information out there it’s hard to sort out the good stuff. Thanks for stopping by, have a great week!

This girl is still going great! She takes whatever you swing at her. The Ayahuasca Purple where not so forgiving... lol overall this girl is on track to finish here in the week or 2 so we are dialling back the nutrients now( more for the Ayahuasca Purple though) and she is already fading out same as the purple. We will probably start looking at cutting her end of next week I would think. Got some more girls ready to take over the rent in the tent so sooner is better then later...lol Cheers 💨

Gorilla Glue #1 - Harvest Comment - I Am Very Satisfied With What I Got, I got 3 ounce 7 grams - I Uses Advance Nutrients PH perfect In veg then I switch to the iguana juice organic juice for the flowering stage. I notice a much more slower growth when I switch to organic nutrients.00

D91 Still a couple of weeks to go at least. She is putting on nice long bud mass as all bud I'll get off her will have very few sugar leafs. And with the top 30cm of the nodes bent outwards it's allowed the light to reach down deeper into the plant itself, and well, you can see the results, bud sites galore. Not much left to do with her. I threw her into a heavy flush for 24hrs first flush run-off was coming back at 2900, way too high, salt and nute residue is been left behind because of the poor P-K uptake that control the spread and uptake of nutes. Got her down to 980 today with her final flush before going into her rest. After the flush I poured 100ml of 2ml/l of cal to help break down the nutes behind so the plant can uptake them, this is very important when doing a flush to lower your TDS add some cal to it as this will keep the plant sucking not only thr water and leaving the nutes behind, cause you need cal espically in subs with nute build up it has to be broken down and will help to avoid nute lock or going into an unwanted flush to early. I'll be dropping her next feed by 200ppm down to around a 1000. I will still give the nutes I've been given just a little less and she needs to get ready for a flush but be kept with enough to keep her mass of growth going. RH is between 55-60%:air been blown in is reading at 48-50% temp is 22c in tent it's 21.7c in the dark and 27-28c with the light on. With my new 4inch intake smart fan im going to set it up so it blows 100% air in at the top and a 4inch intake fan will suck out 80% I'm hoping by doing this it will change the RH of the room 48-50% into the tent creating the same environment. The air that is brought in is filtered by a carbon filter, no need for 1 to blow the air out. 19/3/22 As you can see I have the RH as best as I can get in my grow room, I've installed the smart fan and inserted the sensor giving me 57%RH 75F in the tent, with the light off, it's rather hot today, much hotter than normal, it's normally 21c in my room it's 24.5 today. RH is at 50% in room, hopefully by installing my old intake fan in the lowest part of my tent and suck out 80% While 100% gets blown in on top will bring the tents RH to the same as the room, that's the hope anyways. But 57%RH is still okay, not optimal but not too bad neither 21/3/22 So, I tried out my new method. Of having my smart intake fan suck in 50RH and a bottom intake fan at the end sucking out older air at a lesser speed had it running for 8hrs, no change in humidity whatsoever just dropped the temp by 1.5c. I think the fact I have a 70x70 with so many plants has set the RH and thankfully it's not what it was which was touching on 80rh at some days. A bigger tent and I'll really be able to dial in my grows now I have all the tools to control RH/TEMP from S/H. For now 57%RH when it's low and 62% when the lights are on for a few hours. Stays around 57-60% atm for around 85% of the time. Temp is constant and doesn't change without my control within a range of 4-6c change difference, this number I have no problem in changing and I'll be making my tent a lot cooler after this wk ends. I'll be keeping her at 18c with lights off and 28 with lights on. As for the plant, she has fully turned the corner and I can say whatever the issue was, which no 1 can still tell me what it was not do I know. It wasn't a def because it was so random and hit all different levels of growth. But, thankfully she has passed it, am really dialing in this coco grow. I know exactly how much water she takes without spilling a drop of run-off unless I want it to. The buds, well, they are small at the moment but they are so fucking dense and hard I really hope they get at least 30% bigger of the next 2 wks. The last few days some has but on at least 10% bud mass and all sites have moved out of pre-flower (stigma), so growth is over for the plant, it's just bud sites now, how you can tell is your sites will start to give off their aroma and will start to get sticky to the touch. 85% of the plants buds are all in the same range mature wise or only a few days out from their sister buds. Still some 15% that still has stigma but as this is at the bottom of the plant I know she will not grow anymore but maybe a little if any around these sites. 21/3/22 GRRRRRR stupid rust spots all over her again today, yday she got a mix of all the nutes above, one of these nutes is causing this, I am 75% sure it's overdrive. Really annoying, as there is no deficiencies, no signs, just these poxy rust spots. So annoying, as NO 1 can tell me exactly what they are, it's not a def, the plant ozzs health, she's the pic of it, every leaf stands tall, very good color, slight old nute burn very little on about 10% of the leafs but these stupid rust spots are stupid. Overdrive, or 1 of the nutes is doing this, I reckon it's this as it's only been given that the past 10 days and I'm nearly sure this is the cause, but I can't be sure, and until I figure it out I really don't feel comfortable moving forward with the AN line. Sadly I think I'll be dropping everything but big bud, bud candy&voodoo juice. 22/3/22 Was going through my buds and man, they are so sticky you would nearly say they are done until you look close at them, there still full of pistils, white hairs, the bud growth will come past them, so there is still a big push yet to come so I was hoping to start dropping the micro nutes but I think that would be a massive mistake and cost me dearly on harvest day. Fuck it, I'll flush the shit out of it for 2 weeks on flawless finish and then a week on water and 2-4 days in the dark just on water. With much thought I pushed the PPM back up to 1450. I've decided to drop overdrive. After 24hrs of flushing my coco like crazy I'll be happy to start her back on nutes in 24hrs when she's drank the 2.8-3.2l of water she's currently holding, the run-off from that was 1800 btw, but with salts and so on from the last feed I've learnt with AN the PPM reading is what you give it, not always the Run-off. Yeah I'd trust the PPM reading 2moro if i was doing another ppm run off test, but as im not ill go by what im putting into it, cause my weekly flushes/flushing in general in pretty good, very little nute lock experinces with mixing so many nutes 22/3/22 Messaged AN and sent them pics and info, by going through my nutes and the fact that I gave some big bud in the same window as overdrive causes these rust spots. Thankfully I finally have an answer as to the rust issues. Just a bad mix with nutes that shouldn't come into contact with each other. Thanks AN Thanks for reading, drop a like and I'll know u drop by and I'll do the same gottagrowsometime
