No more yellow leaves spreading problem, it was the lack of nutrients for sure ! Thanks for those who helped me ! :) Something to consider for my next grow: I decided to grow 10 plants to get a chance to have a decent harvest as it is my first time but it takes too much space, I barely have room to move myself inside the box and the plants have less light. I also think it is the reason it's too hot inside the box, when the plants were small and the outside temperatures the same as today, it was was less hot. Next time, I'll grow like 5 or 6 but making them bushy as hell !!

Day 28 - Got other nutrients today. Will be using them for the rest of the grow. Plant keeps doing well in development, although the rust spots have progressed a little more. With the nutrients I'm hoping this will stop now (CaMg-Boost). Controlled also the EC and PH values of the run-off. EC Runoff @ 1.9 (little high), PH Runoff @ 6.25 (little low). The side nodes have grown a LOT. They were sturdy enough to where it seemed a good idea to do some more LST. Day 30 - Watered again, soil was dry even past my knuckle and could see that on the bottom it was dry as well (container is clear on the bottom). Only used a bit of Alga-C and Flower-C because it looks like there might be some nutrient burn on the tips of two leaves (see photo). Otherwise the flowers are continuing to develop well. Day 31 - Starting to see the beginnings of a clear color change 😍

So far so good, she is growing fast. 4 inches taller in only 3 days. On day 21 I defoliated plant #2 ( 3 gallon pot ) as shown in picture. Removed 4 fan leaves as they were touching other areas blocking light and air flow. It also looks only days away from flowering so have introduced bloom as well as a little cal mag to my nutrients. Voodoo juice & b52 will no longer be in my nute regime after this last feed. On day 21 i Fed 2 litres to the 5 gallon pot and 1.5 litres to the 3 gallon pot. Day 24 Trying out some LST on 1 plant as shown in picture. Pots were light again so gave a very weak nute feed and Ph'd to 6 to try bring it down a little as the run of was 7. They seem to be thriving and are thirsty.

I dumped the water and added new today with nutrients. Two plants are looking really healthy. I'll focus on these now and let the others slowly grow on the side. The one I transplanted late is dead. Will update more as it develops. UPDATE: Largest plant is drooping a lot. I'm assuming the auto-waterer over-watered again. Avoid this flower pot. I emptied the water and am letting it dry out a bit before watering again. UPDATE: The auto-waterer soaked the large plant. I've poked holes in the medium and lowered the light to just above the plants to hopefully help dry it out quickly. Also have a fan on it. UPDATE: The plant dried out enough that it's looking healthy again. Yay!

Day 46 flower GDP is starting to show them purple genes and lookin great, The buds them selves look great but man she is a leafy girl. I either did defoliate enough or theses colas are just leafy af Sour diesel, shes still frosty as ever and has the most amazing smell I have ever smelled from a plant in my life, just straight orange peel with a follow up gas. stubby little dense buds, this is gonna be really good smoke Northern Lights, I mean they speak for themselves, this plant has done great at stacking. ALotta big colas and are rock solid. This one smells like straight gasoline. I been checking their trichomes and alotta of them are about 80%clear. I wanna see 80% cloudy and 20% amber. I really need to get these girls down in the next 2 weeks.

4/23/24 Discoloration in top buds is worrying me so I chopped the last plant. Per RQS this may be a week or two early but I am seeing a lot of milky trichomes. Would rather pull it now then end up with bud rot or something. Lower buds look excellent. Will follow up and wrap up this grow in about a week after drying and some curing. 4/27/24 Final weights : Rachie 18 g Lily 18 g Lucy - EDIT 6.24.25 - Will never use RQS again. I switched to Barney's and I will never look back. I had a seed from the RQS pack go auto in the middle of my grow and threw everything out of whack. When I asked the rep what he thought the issue was in my comment section, he said something to the effect of "PM me and I'll take care of it. When I PM'd him he basically told me to not put RQS on blast and just call the 1-800 number. Like bro, you can't even tell me what you think might have happened? Do seeds sometimes do this on their own? Was there a mix up? A "sorry for your inconvenience" bro? Nothing just hey, don't be commenting at me about it just call the number. Barney's customer service has been out of this world. Of course it's a better product as well. No issues so far and everything is exactly what was on the package.

8/5 -Fed both plants with bloom nutrient solution. Lowered the concentration of nutrients by 1 mL/gal--14 mL/gal seemed to be too concentrated. -Cream Cookies is just exploding with growth. As she gets older she's getting much less sensitive to things like watering--super healthy looking. -Ca deficiency spots have not worsened or spread which is exactly what I was looking to see. Last week I raised the pH of the nutrient solution to 6.25 immediately after seeing those deficiency spots--nutrient solution pH was too low and consequently locked out calcium. Fixed the issue and the plants are doing amazing. -Cheese has seemed to stopped explosive vertical growth and instead focusing on flowering. Going to do some more defoliation this week to bring the light down under the canopy. -Cream Cookies canopy was beginning to become uneven with respects to even height-some heavy LST was done on all of the nodes (>10) to again even out the canopy height. Cream cookies is going to go through its second stretch very soon. 8/6 -Cream Cookies is going through a hardcore stretch. Going to do some LST once the super stretching subsides. -Cookies is filling out and I have a feeling is going to go through another stretch soon. -Plants still look extremely healthy--really amazing how hearty these plants are. -The time lapse videos I've been making have been hugely helpful in identifying patterns in the plants' growth. It helps me identify when any drooping is just part of the normal day/night cycle of the plant. Its also really cool to see how it grows over time. -Fed both plants with 500mL nutrient solution 8/7 -Both plants responded to the most recent watering extremely well. The droop was no where near as substantial as past feedings. Makes me feel confident in nutrient solution concentration. Im not going to increase concentration of nutrient solution past 13 mL/gal. -LST done on Cream Cookies--some nodes were stretching and creating an uneven canopy. LST done to even out the canopy. -Defoliation and LST done on Cheese. Defoliation was done to allow for some light to penetrate the canopy and get to the lower bud sites. 8/9 -Both plants continue to absolutely thrive. They are both doing amazing. Great color. No issues so far. They are loving the nutrients, as am i. -Cream cookies is really really wanting to stretch to the stars right now which is kind of annoying since it makes making a even canopy rather difficult. -LST done on Cream cookies to even out the canopy. Pretty extreme LST--branches bent almost 90 degrees. -Cheese is a slow but steady grower. Seems to be focusing a lot on undergrowth rather than stretching which is good. Im hoping the main cola branches will be evenly distributed. -Cream cookies looks to have around 10 main cola nodes now. FIMing created 4 and LST brought the undergrowth nodes to the canopy. So very extremely happy with the FIM method. I personally don't even consider it a "High-Stress" training. Sure you cut the main stalk of the plant but its not like you are damaging the roots. Just new growth. ITs like a scrape for the plant, it just slaps a bandaid on and focuses on other growth instead. Super efficient training method. -Ive been doing defoliation around once a week to keep some breaks in the canopy to get light down into those node sites under the top of the main cola branches. -Cream cookies is around 2 inches taller than Cheese is with the evened out canopy which might become a problem as I continue to raise the lamp. Cream cookies is really stretching. 8/10 -Plants look amazing as always -Cheese raised 3' and put on "stilts" -Lamp raised back to 18 inches. -Both plants watered with 500mL nutrient solution -Cream cookies canopy FINALLY evened out. -Cheese LST evened the canopy out very well. Very happy with results.

1/3 driver on my quantumboard is dead ☠️ now only 440wt 💡

Sorry I missed a few weeks was outta town and not able to update! Things hav been going well! Took some time for em to start growing fast! But they are growing fast! Gonna need some rest from the topping and training from the bud clips. I think I got the manifold line down for all the plants! The og kush I accidentally fimmed it was dramatic lol but made it thru and still growing strong! Makes me laugh fim stands for “fuck I missed” but all this is trial and error for me! Any advice is appreciated! “ happy growing”

First week of flowering went good, had some trouble with my ph meter again, so I ordered a bunch of ph equipment and I’m gonna start fresh with everything new. Lol sick of second guessing my crappy pens. Plants are staying pretty compact so far, they have started to stretch a little bit but we have only done a few tucks on them. They are either gonna stay short or haven’t started there main stretch yet, but we are 10 days into flip so they should be stretching by now. Time will tell I guess. Lol I removed a few of the larger guard leaves up top to open up the middle of the plants more to the light. I have around 40000 lux at the top of the netting and they seem to be taking it fairly well. I’m yet to get my water chiller installed as I’ve been very busy this month and haven’t had time to finish my DIY video for it. Lol hopefully this week we will get it installed and get our water temps down a little lower. I got some more H2O2 coming soon too so can’t wait to get using that again, plants just haven’t been the same without it, but I haven’t been able to find it reasonably priced anywhere near me in a long time. I am using UC Roots now in its place to keep my res/water clean, but it’s not as good. H2O2 has extra oxygen on top of keeping things clean, so can’t wait! Well that’s it for this week, Cheers💨

Ultima semana de vegetativo. Fueron 7 semanas y unos días de la Muse en 18/6. Agregamos MadGrow Algas foliar. Pasamos dos plantas afuera a florar así le damos un poco mas de espacio en el indoor. Quedaron 5 plantas total, la Muse central, 3 esquejes de Portela y una Hulkberry. Pusimos la red de SCROG, acomodamos las puntas y buscamos que ocupe todo el espacio. Luego de unos días que se acomodaron las pasamos a flora 12/12. Arranca el segundo capitulo 🌸

Great nose and terps. Cookies beats out Humboldt in quality. Yield was very low but that could have been growers error

Day 63. Buds are coming along, bit slower than my Harlequin but still, progress. She has stretched like crazy, gonna have to supercrop couple tops. Sooo looking forward to try this strain. Both my plants are somewhere around week 3 flower

She seems to be doing well. Her buds get fatter and more smelly each day. Weather turned a bit cooler. Temps in the day are mid 70s to mid 60s. Nights are in the high 40s mid to upper 50s. So nights would be cold for her. Plus she was getting severe mornings dew. So I bring her in the the garage at night. The temperature in the garage is 70. So she is going to have a warmer night than day. This goes against nature. For some reason I think she will like it. Today I took off all of her LST ropes. My thinking is, she may see the tension as weight. Probably should have taken them off sooner. Bruce Banner strain is a 9 or 10 week flower strain. So I figure she is about half way through flower. Day 100. She has a lot of lower leaves yellowing and falling off. The yellow is starting to move up the branches. This plant is almost all tops. Most coloas are top and 2 nodes under it. There are a few that have 4 or 5 nodes under the top, but they get the light for it. This strain requires a lot of food. This I read from a lot of reviews on the strain. I should have read up the Bruce Banner strain much earlier. Although I think I did a great job with her, considering this was my first serious grow. I did some gorilla growing in my younger days. However I had no idea what I was doing. I use to plant them, give them some water. Then in a few weeks top them and check on them every few days to few weeks. If they were lucky they got some Miracle-Gro. There was not a lot of information on how to grow. I was harvesting way too early. 9/23 1 gallon of water PH 6.2. It's not as hot, so I don't think she needs 2 gallons everyday anymore. Day 100 9/24 Fed 4 tablespoons Foxfarm Big Bloom, 12 ml Foxfarm Tiger Bloom, half a teaspoon Foxfarm Beasti Bloom, 2 tablespoons of Foxfarm Kelp me Kelp you, per 2 gallons of 6.4 PH water. Day 101 9/25 Cloudy day, no need for food or water. Day 102 9/27 Sunny. Made a tea worm castings, poop, some powder baby food and black strap molasses. Also 24 MLs Foxfarm Tiger Bloom, per two gallons. Day 103. Day 103 I see her first orange hairs, just a few. She smells great. She is making some beautiful buds. Very exciting time, she is getting close. She is a short plant, if she were in the ground, she would be about 3 feet tall. She is about 3 and 1/2 feet wide. I had her tied down most of her life. My goal was to keep her as short as I could. I prefer the neighbors not see her. This grow was by design, I wanted her to have as many tops as possible. I bent her branches and did not let them grow straight up. Not sure if I would get more or less if i let the plant grow up. She sure is going to give me many top buds. Either way Im going to have very nice buds. So if there is a weight difference in growing styles I have no way of knowing, until this plant finishes and I grow another style. The weight does not really matter. This will be more bud than I need, for a while.

Week two and looking very healthy

The thunderstorms finally came to an end and the coming week will bring some sunny days. In the last few days I noticed that some ladybugs got attracted by my plants. They are welcome to stay for a long time. The rodent, which I mentioned in the last week, didn't cause any new damage to my plants. The remaining damage is healing properly. Size difference between all plants: Plant 1: ~100cm Plant 2: ~100cm Plant 3: ~80cm

Final week shes almost there
