2/4: Photo session day! The squattier of the two picked up a lot less of the sativa genes. She's gonna be shorter, but she's in a big hurry compared to her lankier sister. The taller one, like most other sativa dominant strains I've grown, really doesn't like being fed so often. At this point, I'll probably just feed her every other feeding day, and on plain watering days I'll give her cal-mag and flavor/terpene enhancers, and maybe a little beastie bloomz. I had a total infestation of Cattus (felis) which I documented in my photos. Eradication seems impossible, so I'm opting to allow a degree of predation, but hoping trichome production will, at least, deter them soon.😁 2/5: I fed everybody today except these girls and my two #3's..they usually protest after a full-strength feeding. I just gave them water with cal-mag, bembe, signal, humic acid, and a little Open Sesame. I also sprayed everybody down with Axiom harpin proteins for the last time today. I made a DIY CO2 generator today using a 5 gallon cat litter bucket, a small aquarium pump, some air line tubing, and a bubble stone, plus 6 cups of sugar and 30 grams of wine yeast in 2 gallons of warm water. I put the tube where the CO2 is exhausted up against the back of the oscillating fan that aims down over the plants so they are being constantly forcefully bombarded with high levels of CO2(1300+ppm) from above. I set the ac infinity controller to allow the temps to climb up to 89f before the fan turns on. 2/6: These girls are a much lighter shade of green than anybody else in the garden. I bought some Gro-Pro pot risers to elevate the pots so that they will dry out faster..seem pretty effective. 2/7: Now they look deficient in N and K...ffs! I'll go back to feeding them with everyone else, but will make up a batch of weaker nutes for them. I foliar fed with big bloom and tiger bloom. 2/8: I ordered a second 6" AC Infinity fan to connect to my controller, some ducting, and a diffuser which I'll mount to the wall, down near the floor. The fan unit will be in another closet, adjacent to the garden closet, and I'll run ducting up through that closet ceiling into the attic, with a filter on the end to keep bugs and particulates out. For the next 6 weeks or so, it will provide a supply of colder fresh air. I did the math, and it will now only take about 1 minute and 40 seconds to completely exchange the air in the closet. Depending on the outside air temp at the time, it should take anywhere between 8 and 20 minutes for the closet to heat back up to 80f and the fans to kick back on again. This Spring, on days when it's not cooler than 72f, I'll disconnect the duct in the closet and stretch it into that bedroom, clipped to the window unit air conditioner output, cranked down as low as it will go. This Summer, I'm gonna just run a pair of the quantum boards and grow 4 or 5 autos in there, but this should help keep the temps cooler in summer as well, without dedicating an air conditioner to the grow op.🙏 2/9: I foliar fed them with grow big, big bloom, and tiger bloom and checked moisture in their pots. They're due for a good watering tomorrow.

Start of week 5... Looking back at the first few weeks of veg, i never imagined that they would thrive this good in week 5 already! (Look back at week 1+2 for horror pictures) Whole of week 4 i worked on my climate control automation. I will keep the set up for atleast a week. 👽👉26/9 Big LST day. I got new supplies to manage the rest of the ladies properly. Topped another one ( 5/6 is topped) Cut just a couple of leaves. The crusty ones that did not receive light and the ones casting shadows over my lovely budsights. 👽👉27/9 Waterday* and recovery 2ml/L Bio heaven + fish mix / 6.4 PH 1.68 ECLetting them recover Humidity a bit higher during night because of watering, turned the temp up to match the VPD. 👽👉28/9 They look content, humidity a bit higher during night because of watering. 👽👉29/9 I am happy how you thrive, but they need some pruning/defoliation as soon as they have recovered from the stress training. 👽👉30/9 Did some defoliation, decided to flip to flower after their recovery. 👽👉1/10 They had a case of empty humidifier, resulting in high vpd for 7hours. Water day* 2.1xml/L Bio heaven + fish mix / 6.2 PH 1.75 EC 👽👉2/10 They look great, healthy and happy! Climate is back on point

10/16 So the girls are doing well. They have been watered twice now and #2 is a bit smaller. They are absolutely exploding veg wise and raising the light was necessary as #2 was much to short, will be updating with transplant soon! 10/18 Ok so transplant happened today. They were growing so quick we needed to move them as soon as they were water ready! They got transplanted into 5g fabric style pots. Did 2/3 Fox Farms "ocean forest" and 1/3 perlite mix. Used same nute mix for watering on the transplant, will change that up soon. See pics and video for more info! 10/22 There seems to be a nitrogen lockout. I'm guessing it was the unneeded cal mag add. Learned our lesson! Upped our grow big and giving the first water in big pots. Other than that they are growing amazing!

Banana purple punch finally showed the tricomb maturity we were waiting on! She’s a heavy tricomb producer and gives amazing terps. I can’t wait to see what flavonoids she holds. This grow was absolutely amazing,can’t wait to start the next!

The plants are looking good and are drinking around 0.5l a day of ph6.0 water and are now getting BioCanna Veg, around 3 drops from a tablespoon to sart with. Helaas niet veel te vertellen, de tent blijft gewoon op juiste temperatuur, de ventilator blaast en de lamp is een kanon op 40%, elke week zal ik deze opvoeren tot ze in week 5 100% is.

Everything is doing good despite me not having ac at the moment! House has been staying at 85 degrees so the plants are happy at least. Plan on solving the ac issue by next week to start possibly flowering soon 🤞🤞. No health issues to report, just added another fx3 to the 3x3 to have 2 different phenos!

So switched from 24 hour light to 18 this week which was about day 14 after last seed spread his wings also potted up from seed cups to 1.5l pots on same day, used plenty of great white shark when transplanting, roots fully stocked n crisp white, growth seems to have continued as normal. fast!! So I had to wash the coco from ecothrive after filling each new pot I applied a flush feed at 450ppm! run off was 1500ppm not happy as I thought this product was to be used strait from the bag washed n buffered. This is what I believe stitched me up in the beginning i should of checked before using it and not assume it’s all good because you’ve bought a premium product Coco wash washed with ph’ed water 6.0 until ppm was under 50 then used 10 litre of AN’s cal mag at 2ml per litre half was flushed through left for 30 min the other half was flushed though again this was hopefully to buffer the coco in case it wasn’t as this coco is not what it says on the tin so far then flushed 10 litres of just a and b at 350 ppm run off was around 400ppm I then transplanted All seems well and happy Open to others opinions and experience’s with echthrives coco with charge I believe Iv done the right thing because I’m sure those bad leaves are from the Unflushed coco I used in the beginning Friday update Feed was every other day this week to allow the pots a little time to dry out before the next feed hoping to get those roots searching the pot I’ll mention after I transplanted and watered in with feed I placed the pots on a large bath towel for a few hours to draw some of the saturation out it left the pot much lighter then after they where left to drain on there on accord again hoping for root exploration On Fridays feed I checked the bottom of the pot to see if much had made it down there, I wasn’t really expecting to see anything so soon but every pot had at least a few big old roots poking out and EC 7 was pushing them out am pretty stoked with these results All in all I think the great white shark along with AN’s piranha, tarantula and voodoo juice Are doing a smashing job of building root stock I can’t wait to transplant again and get a good look in!! Also hoping my little efforts to keep the pots a little dryer from the norm are helping stimulate root production along side the additives Fridays feed was up to 2ml per litre of voodoo piranha and tarantula 👊

D93ish - 11.6 - I found her in a dumpster with a split stem and no grow equipment and our journey began. From the clandestine tent and trying different lights to spider mites and super cropping. Me and this baby been there. She was a great teacher and I loved her dearly. I'm incredibly grateful for her resilience and patience with me as learned my way around this new skill. I killed her last night, cut her into pieces and put her in a box to dry. I havent smoked any of the newly harvested Dumpster Queen and won't test it until it goes into cure jars, but the sample I took off over a week ago was divine and opened my eyes to everything I've been missing in organic grown nugs. Thank you all for you support. I'm so stoked moving forward with this newfound hobby and passion. Will update in a week or so on the dry weight, cuz I'm really interested too. Expecting about a QP, just enough to give as gifts to some awesome friends and keep me going until my next harvest! 11.9 - stems were snapping i trimmed her up further into jars and weight came out to 80g. The nugs are not very dense or large, but are very very sticky and full trichomes. Smells of sweet dank floral and pine and the dank and floral notes really come out in a joint. I just got bubble bags from BubbleBagDue and will practice extraction on some the the trim and super larfy stuff : Thanks again for the support and following along everyone. My other diaries are where Im implementing all the lessons I learned with DQ and where I'll continue documenting my ongoing pursuit of growing grade A organic meds! 11.19 - D106ish - Our cure with the boveda 62% bags has been on for 10 days and the bud is about perfect. Been smoking hard on it and is still thoroughly enjoying it. Notable changes in flavor is the shift of that floral scent to more berry. It smells soo good I bury my face in the jar haha. The effect is still very uplifting and creative, which is great since I'm writing my phd dissertation. Anyhow, be well. Tons of love!
