Welcome to week 3! The last few plants that weren't topped should be ready fairly soon. Only 2 of the plants have bugs as far as I could tell but all of them will be treated just in case. Insecticide applications will be recorded as ~X. I will apply it as a spray on the foliage and over the top of the soil, the issue is relatively small now so I don't see the need to fully water with it - 07/09/23 7:58pm. The leaves are getting noticeably bigger after topping and supplementing! Haven't seen any more bugs either so far - 07/10/23 7:01pm. I saw a bug or two in some of the pots so I used a little bit more mammoth - 07/11/23 9:20pm. Some of the leaves on the bottom were yellowing and some spots are appearing on some of the more developed leaves as well. I clipped the lower leaves that were yellow, I believe it's most likely calcium deficiency. I added some Pesticide to the water for tonight as the bugs won't go away and I was only doing some spraying on the top soil until now. On the positive side they seem to be overcoming the stress of the topping extremely well and the double stems are growing strong - 07/15/23 8:00pm. ~W - Water ~SW - Supplemented Water ~X - Pesticide

July 20 - day 41 - week 2 flowering

4/1/2023 Week 7- Day 1 of Veg (Day 59 overall) Water Change Day!!! Water was really low it was just above the hump in the Res cutting it close to not having enough water in the system to keep it going. They drank a lot making it close going the full 14 days. I am still going with the previous grows and adding 36 Gallons but even looking at the root I think the SILICA is working and the roots are further along at this point than in previous grows. This next two weeks will watch how much they drink and how low my Res starts getting, and will make a decision on changing the water weekly from here on out or still keep on the plan of every other week until Week 4 of Flower. Added 36 Gallons Mammoth SILICA= .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil CALMAG= .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil Root Drip= 1Mil/Gal = 36Mil FloraMicro = 5.4Mil/Gal = 194Mil FloraGrow = 4.2Mil/Gal = 151Mil FloraBloom = 4.6Mil/Gal = 166Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal =18Mil PPM= 536 PH=5.84 PPFD=500 Tent Temp= 76.5 Water Temp= 71.4 Humidity= 58% 4/2/2023 Week 7- Day 2 of Veg (Day 60 overall) Not much today, PH was at 5.81, I brought that back up to 5.90. I took care of some badly needed defoliation in each of the back sides .. I was able to see some really good clone material to use on the lower backside of each of the plants. I will be taking two clones from each to breed over the next few weeks depending on when I am going to flip them. 4/3/2023 Week 7- Day 3 of Veg (Day 61 overall) A little FIMing, A little Topping, and a Little bit of defoliation. Might have to take my clones during the week this week, I am trying to wait until Saturday to hit week 8 but again they are getting all over the place and I need to trim some of the sides and lower areas. 4/4/2023 Week 7- Day 4 of Veg (Day 62 overall) I decided to take my clones and clean up the lower half of the plants. I took 2 clones from each plant to go into the cloning machine. 4/5/2023 Week 7- Day 5 of Veg (Day 63 overall) Water Temp is sitting at 73. Right in my ideal range for my setup. Ideal range 70-74 My Temp Tent is my ideal zone75.6 Ideal for this grow 70-78 The lights are still waiting the switch to flower to get maxed out... The Humidity is coming in right at 60% I love it.. I took so much off yesterday I figure it was a good day to let them rest. 4/6/2023 Week 7- Day 6 of Veg (Day 64 overall) I needed to Defoliate some and I topped a little. The plants might force me to flip them soon. Next Wed is the 10 week mark half way through the 20 weeks. The net is Bingo... Which means that If/when the plants hit the net I will have to flip them. The Net is set to the max height that I can let them get based on the Breeders Stretch report 75%. 4/7/2023 Week 7- Day 7 of Veg (Day 65 overall) #3 is 22 inches Tall, #2 is 19 Inches Tall. Net is set at 24 inches. Net is also set as my Bingo point, if they hit the net then I have to flip no matter what to account for the Breeders recommended 75% Stretch allowance. I think I am going to have to flip right at the 10 week mark of the Competition which is Wed 12 Apr. I topped a little, I de-foliated a lot to start getting it ready for the anticipated Flip.

Going great trying to train to best suit my grow tent. There will be 3 other strains so I need to make sure they all get enough light. The water volume in the plants is less then what I have in the conditions. More like 2L every two days

Vegetation Week 3: Steady Gains, Environmental Harmony & the Art of Boring Update: 30.03.2025 What’s up, my Growmies? Week 3 with the Blueberry and Durban Poison was blissfully… ordinary. No drama, no breakthroughs—just the quiet hum of plants doing their thing. Here’s the low-key recap! Current Observations: Subtle Wins Leaf Development: The first true fan leaves are finally unfurling—wider, darker green, and more serrated. My Blueberry lady is slightly ahead of my Durban Poison babe! Stem Thickness: Those once-spindly stems now feel sturdy and stable, thanks to their exposure to light winds. Environment Report: Stability Wins The weather’s been a steady 10–16°C with occasional clouds. Plants are now outdoors soaking up direct light as long as possible (still bringing them in at night—better safe than sorry with these chilly temps!). The "Boring" Philosophy No news is good news! This week’s mantra: Don’t fix what isn’t broken. Watering Rhythm: Sticking to plain pH’d water (~6.3) only when the pots feel light. No overthinking, no overwatering. No Nutes Yet: Biobizz Light Mix is still feeding them plenty. No rush to disrupt the balance. Future Prep: Laying Groundwork Topping Plans: I’m planning to top them next week for the first time! I’ll decide spontaneously if the girls look stable enough, but I’m leaning toward waiting until Node 5 to minimize stress. Slow and steady wins the race—no stunting allowed! Week 3 Takeaway: Slow, stable growth means the plants are content. Sometimes, boring is beautiful. Until next time: Stay grounded, stay growing… and stay blazing! – Smoking_Joe_Frazier

The strong

Tomorrow start 12/12 🌺

The Permanent Marker Auto should be finishing up soon

Have grown 3 gorilla cookies autos out to harvest and all three have been noticeably different in growth and characteristics

En esta semana mantendré todavía los Led por 24 horas al día, el EC lo tendré a 2,5, el PH tratare de mejorarlo, todavía lo tengo a 6,3 mas o menos. Las plantitas están creciendo bien, ya se ven las puntas de las raíces saliendo del substrato y tocando el agua. Para el fin de semana próximo cambiaré la solucion nutritiva y bajaré el nivel del agua. Decidí también poner un generador de CO2 casero(bidón con agua, levadura, azúcar y pulpa de tomates) consejo de mis amigos de zamnesia. En la semana nos iremos actualizando.

Happy Xmas 😊 No better day to lay them down! "We're Off to the races" 🏁 Greyhound's at the ready! "I feel like; we're in for a speed run Martina" •HydroSol Grow + H202• #Peanut Butter OGKB - Sensible Seeds #Peyote Wi-Fi CBD - Seedsman. #Monkey SlapZ - PreyBird Farms. #The Future - DC Seeds "Sprayed SEEDS with weak 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide foodgrade. Placed on mineral wool inside of a glass food container in a propagandist! 😉 on a heat mat at 24c. 26/12/2024 Peanut Butter OGKB has sprouted her tap! 27/12/2024 Peyote Wi-Fi CBD (PW) is ready for the light as well with The Future (TF) 28/11/2024 All have germinated! Peeled back the shell 🐚 on peanut butter OGKB (PB) being a good Santa's little helper. Will introduce HydroSol water soluble feed in the morning. They should have enough in there tap root until morning. "Its only been 3days since I laid them down 👀 and it's been 1 day from seed sprouting tap root" mathematical genius i am. Midday: Apllied a very weak feed of HydroSol at ratio of 1ml/L. DLI: 20 (c) Little above average! Lights Off! Sprayed propagator with HP 6% all round avoiding direct touch! About week 3 will up the dose spray to 12% "avoiding direct touch" this is bleach strength. But hopefully being introduced early will stop the micro-organisms "ever" building up in the plants cells ever. May have to do a laboratory grow next to get the results i want that are projected in my minds eye! If the hydrogen keeps reacting with micro organisms; it could by the very definition rip atoms and form mutations of its own kind! Hence these are "Experiments" Because i think every grow is an experiment (leave it to the professionals: I hear you! Would; could; should but the world is full of lies and deceptions; from knowledge; technology; history and Morden-day! Well Morden day academics 'to me. Personally is all bs! Take it as it is, just my opinions and a cloud of thought sprawling and spiraling out over these digital diaries. I hwar ya too. A huge still box would be needed or properly designing a room for a labradory grow. I don't know! I would need zero interferences from "out of space" where the nasties come from in our world. The space between me and you; consists of everything we know in that "gap" for we are forever shinning from our own island! Hard to explain. Lights Off: 147watts wall draw with DLI at 20! Light Shedule: 3-9pm Monkey SlapZ (MS) hasnt cracked her shell yet. I may have to do it tomorrow morning (may die otherwise) 29/11/2024 Lights On! (MS removed shell and accidently snapped its tap toot) PW tap as got snap accidentally as well as I re perisione it. This happened before and MS recovered from the snapped tap root. I made the MS joke 😃 Anyways...let it be! 30/12/2024 I'll update agai😗n next week: i think this talk for the first few days has set the pace for myself! Enter.the.Void.2009.DC.1080p.BluRay.DDP5.1.x265.10bit-GalaxyRG265 Just finshed watching it! for real i thought it was me! mint film to watch stoned 31/11/2024 Increased light: 293watts DLi 35 ***Happy New Years 2025*** How did you smoke yaself in? Me; diy chemistry kit lol "All the best brothers" ❤️ 💪 Keep it strong! I can only hope this diary can bring HydroSol some limes 🍋 🙏 in the sunshine 🌞 water soluble feed. Zero residues "allegedly". All I have heard is positive things about HydroSol water soluble feed. I had a thot, " The HP 12% i am using for cosmetic reasons is basically "water" with an extra molecule. H202 is basically water and is can be soluble with HydroSol feed. I'll explain more on from my pervious grow diary by Segwaying in and out of this diary with quotations from It and continuing on. 02/01/2025 Dimmed light: 188 25DLi Will update next week, these puppies need to stretch their roots. Nothing much happening! Loads happening really. You know what i mean lol " My little rusties i call them" Free radicals have caused the leafs to have a faint ginger tint when it stole the Oxygen Atom, which released free radicals. Not to worry this will boost growth in the next two week. 04/01/2025 All seems okay. Monkey SlapZ lost a leaf 🍃 😳 but looks like shes recovering fine. I introduced HydroSol way too early. Never mind you live and learn. They are all back in the propagator and I put some fresh seeds down to germinate/same strains. 11/01/2024 All fresh new seeds have sprouted. MS is showing new baby leafs 🍃 recovering from losing a leaf and top. Fresh baby growth is now showing! 13/01/2024 MS n TF has sprouted! Old MS recovered God burnt down Mel Gibsons house for making passion of the christ lol 18/01/2025 Its felt like a long start; experimenting with H202. The 2nd load of seeds i introduced h202 2days after tap root sprouted and HydroSol on day 3. This seems to of worked 20/01/2024 21/01/2024 TF and MS repotted into 5L jerry starter cans with 1.25ml/l 22/01/2024 All looks okay, will slowly 🐌 increase lights over the next week as they creep out of germination. PW hasn't germinated yet, ive placed another PW seed down! Midday Check ✔️ DLI: 28 Watts: 270 Canopy distance est: 35-40inches MS is 3days old after sprouting! Maybe it's just me but she looks older and her colours and texture looks different! Could it be the #HydroSol #H202? Who knows? Will have to replicate the protocols to verify these results on indeed because of HydroSol + H202 (1.5ml/l) 23/07/2025 I put down to germinate Freaky Pablo TerpYz and Magic MarkerxZZTOP 26/07/2025 Lights Rapid Growth has slowed 🐌 down. #The HydroSol feed 6.5ml/5litre of water for germinating....1ml of 12% HP. I think this is the ratio I am after. Being water soluble feed it looks like just water ; well it is 98% water i suppose. 26/07/2025 Midday It seems the HydroSol is working perfectly. It's been a rough sturdy journey to start off with but I've found a steady road to the right ratios. 1ml 12%HP to 5L 6.5ml HydroSol Feed for germinating. Vegging I will slowly increase to double the amount as she 👀 sees fit. It seems the HydroSol is working perfectly.

Others are still germinating in the propagator. 2 in this tent. 1 in loft tent 1 in Sativa tent (loft) thats the plan. Midday: light increased to 310watts DLi (c): 32

Hallo fellow growers. Happy to be in week 3 of veg with Cookies Gelato . I def enjoy how they are developing into something beautiful. Hopefully with all the love there getting They will continue to grow happily ☺️ I maybe going to be doing some Topping at one of plants in the end of the week and start little LST test with the LST clips see if they work Day 15 Veg Phase 💪🌿👍 Day 16 Veg Phase Today i am going do some LST test on the cookies gelato #2 . The other plant i am going to leave alone for now #1 is going a lil slower then #2 and maybe i am going to do nothing to #1 and see if there is a difference . I am still learning and want to try out all Dif grow techniques . Also later today i have topped the #2 too hope it all goes well Day 17 Veg Phase I think topping has worked will see in few days if heals up quickly so far so good 🤞 Also the soil was way to dry and i think i put almost 1 liter per plant extra the sides where bone dry and that is not good for roots to move true dry soil Day 18 Veg Phase Overwatering was not harmful at all they are still growing strong . So i might start giving them more water every 24 hours then they would normally get . Also i recommend the LST CLIPS 👌👌💯 Also have bin LST the main on both plants Day 19 Veg Phase I have bin pulling the main on both plants further to the side bit by bit don't want to overstress them . It will also be the only thing i am Going to do to the plants. And let topping heal and the LST on the main get more of a bend . The LST clips going to use later in stage Day 20 Veg Phase Did some more LST on main of plant #2 Plant #1 got topped and some more LST Day 21 Veg Phase Leaving the girls alone today to let them heal and grow Have nice weekend growmies 🤘🤘

Day 9 plants looking great all green already seeing bud sites forming! Can’t wait to see the buds on these girls! Again check out General hydroponics their nutrients are the best out there!

Just water and molasses as the trichomes are cloudy but no amber's yet 17/1 chopped her tonight she had 24 hours of dark.

Gente!amici contadini eccoci arrivati all'ottava settimana di fioritura 💪 tutto procede come deve. La lotta biologica che sto facendogli con le mie care amiche coccinelle 🐞 funziona Super bene...fossero state tutte larve di coccinelle 🐞 era ancora meglio.si perché la voracità che ha la larva di coccis è incomparabile....poi le larve non volano aggirro. Stanno sulle foglie e mangiano tutto. Uova ragni rossi ecc....

Took some clones & defoliated/lollipopped I started building a veg tent and went with a 2x2 AC Infiniti equipped with the 4inch cloud line duct system was a boring grow week.. ready for flower
