All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. 84/14 Fun with Filters VPD was controlled at reduced temps and RH today - RH now set to 55% max and Temps are 75F at max Over night allowed down to 67F when lights go out. Lights were good and same as yesterday with some light LST PPFD at 750 down to 550. I used 20 minutes of UV and 1 hr of IR with 15 before and after main lights on/off. She's now about 25" tall and 35" wide. Also took some black back and shadow pics for fun (no filters or sharpen only) Day 85/15 Feed Day I gave 2 gallons of de-chlorinated tap combined with 25:75 Veg/Bloom mix total 600ppm and a ph of 6.4. Foliar sprayed some on the outer leaves and left the tent door open to help dry them. (took like 15 minutes with the fans.) top soil ph checked at 6.22ph and run off was at 5.74 with 1580ppm Lights at a range of 750 to 500 Ran 25 minutes of UV and the standard 1hr IR with 15/15 before and after lights on/off and 30/30 at that time. VPD was easy to manage with the doors open and then the fan seemed to have to work more today but just more often and not high fan. Day 86/16 Humidity was high at 60%RH for most of the day, the ILV was kicking on throughout the day and I have two humidifiers going on high. Temps on the other hand was controlled at about 74F. Tips carried a little burn on them today, some all over which makes me think nute burn because ppfd was 550 to 750 as it has been for a few days now and there are tips on leaves with little direct light showing burn as well. Will continue to monitor as well. IR and UV are set on timers and I screwed up with mine today. I was supposed to change the setting and forgot (time change screwed me up and I thought I did it when I changed timers that needed correction) until it was too late and ended up giving her 30 minutes of IR and 1 hour of UV... will have to check/monitor for effects tomorrow. The good news is that she's had a little over two weeks with UV so maybe not so bad. (fingers crossed it doesnt stress her too much) Day 87/17 Again, humidity was high at 60%RH for most of the day, the ILV was kicking on throughout the day and I have two de-humidifiers going on high. Temps on the other hand was controlled at about 74F. If I open the tent for a while I can get the humidity down by about another 5% so tomorrow I plan to leave it open after I feed again. Took some light burn from yesterday's extended UV exposure, but read that it's not bad to take on some stress from UV in flower, especially if you still have time to recover. The pros suggest that you can stress her to grow defensive systems that may create thicker/stickier leaves and flowers with more terpene production. The cons however suggest that it could stress too much and stunt the growth or in extreme/sudden cases, cause her to herm. (thus why they say in mid flower is best if you plan to stress with UV) So it is what it is. I will monitor the leaves that took damage and likely remove them this week when I defoliate schwazz style. I still resumed the schedule of increasing UV as planned but ahead a few days now so 45minutes of UV and 1 hr IR with 15/15 before and after main lights on/off. Day 88/18 Lots happening today. Firstly, I found a split today... on the main stem trunk, so I used superglue to seal the cracks and held together while it set. Then I wrapped it with heavy duty gorilla tape, two 1ft pieces as both a clamp and a support on the other side. I then tied each cola to the inner ring. So then I decided that since I am here having to work on this I may as well go ahead and do the defoliation I was planning for tomorrow. Schwazze style defoliation (at least my interpretation of the method without having to buy the book, super defoliate week 1 and 3 of flower - so almost) Then after that I also preformed heavy strength training - I broke each cola right under the bud sites that I left and bent her outward. I then upped the lights ever so slightly and have a max of 850 ppfd and low of 650 ppfd now. She had 45 minutes of UV and 1 hr of IR same routine, IR on/off at main light schedule with 15 before and after main lights. VPD is better now that I placed another open air vent at the bottom, this one is 6 inch. I also placed the fans a little better to blow directly on the leaves left behind. Low speed for now, but as the leaves come back I plan to increase to get dancing leaves in the middle too. Temps were 74F and RH 55% with the ILV set to auto. I plan to feed 2 gallons of 650ppm 25:75 Veg/Bloom mix. Since my last ph was really low I am going to increase the feed to 7.0ph - not sure what if anything I can do about ppm. Day 89/19 VPD was normal with the exception of holding the tent open as I said I was going to today. Temps at 74F and RH mostly 55% with the ILV set to auto. PPFD also checking in with the same settings/results today, 880 to about 650 ppfd. UV was set for 45 minutes midday, and IR with the same 1 hr with 15 minutes before and after main light on/off. Water feed today with about 2.25 gallons of 7.0 ph de-chlorinated tap diluted with 25:75 ratio of veg/bloom mix (690 ppm total) watered until drip started and I got about .25 gallon runoff. Runoff measured 5.75 ph and 1630 ppm (top soil tested 4x with avg of 6.35) Next feed will be a plain water salt flush. Plant looked so nice a day today that I decided to take some more black back pics. Day 90/20 VPD and PPDF were fine today with normal settings of 74F/55%RH/Auto ILV - PPFD ranged from 550 to 750 because of HST on the limbs. This will be the last stress I give her and hope it wasnt too much. Hoping this all results in a big yield and not a herm.

Settimana meravigliosa, caldo estivo arrivato! Crescono tutte in maniera impeccabile e molte sono di tipo XXL ! Resinose e appiccicose e molto profumate ormai si riempiono di infiorescenze dure e spettacolari! Resistono e sembrano soddisfare ogni esigenza. Molto abbondanti e facili da gestire non manca molto alla fine! Complimenti ai creatori di queste varietà! Sono felice! Un abbraccio a tutti!

Just watching them grow :) nothing special to add. I was considering flushing one plant this week, as I mentioned in my last post, but to be frank I didn't consider the actual flowering time and just wanted everything to be as fast as possible, which is not a good thing on my part. Now I'll feed them 1 or maybe 2 weeks longer (depending on the plant, as I'm trying to give them at least 5-6 weeks of flower (the recommended time for flower for this strain from what I can gather). I would love to hear your opinions on this. Thanks for stopping by and happy growing 🌿😁

Growing it was quite a journey. Since I had a lot of changes in my life, I couldn't take the time I wanted to make a good diary, but I still managed to take some pictures. I had some problems since I changed the size of my pots and didn't use LST. One plant grew so tall that it went above the LED, and other plants were too close to the LED. Using three 20L pots in a 60cm x 60cm space was too much; they didn't have enough room. For the next grow, I'll use only two pots and employ SCROG and LST

Daily report: Day 1. Watering: NO Stats: Humidity: 70% Temp: 27.2 Notes: I want to see how often should I water Heracles. I fucked up with pH and maybe with watering frequency. I want to fix that. Also set the board to 100%. Day 2. Watering: NO Notes: Defoliation went a bit too aggressive, but it looks fine and I hope that it will help weaker stems to grow faster. I will let Heracles to heal tonight and feed her only tomorrow's morning. Day 3. Watering: 5.7 pH 1550 ppm (1.25 l + CalMag) && 5.8 pH 1320 ppm (2.3 l + CalMag) + 5.7 pH 1120 ppm (1.6 l + CalMag) Total 5.15 l => 5.9 pH 1720 ppm (1.25 l) Notes: This morning pot was completely lightweight and dry. Heracles looks amazing. Day 4. Watering: Night - 5.8 pH 1190 ppm 3.5 l (+CalMag) => 6.0 pH 1890 ppm 0.7 l Notes: New leaves still has yellow marks between veins. I don't know what should I do with that - neither MgSO4 foliar nor CalMag in the mixture helped. Currently 1.5 days is the comfy period for feeding schedule. Day 5. Watering: NO Notes: I found signs of overfeeding (and not only me found that), so next mixture will be less concentrated to let Heracles relax. Also, I bounded all tallest stems to the net to place all the grow spots at the same height. Day 6. Watering: Morning - 5.7 pH 761 ppm 4.5 l (0.75% of Base +CalMag + 1 l of plain water) => 6.1 pH 1750 ppm 1.1 l Notes: I am still trying to create a flat screen of greens. Very excited of flowering stage, it's almost here. But wtf is going on with ppm in drainage?! Day 7. Watering: Night - 5.8 pH 1040 ppm 4.0 l (0.75% of Base +CalMag) => 6.0 pH 1930 ppm 0.8 l Notes: I am run out of a free space in my growbox. Why does not blow starts?

This was their last week! They had 4 full water feeds till runoff, and the trichomes we’re looking just right by Thursday (day 67). Throughout the week I had been increasing the light intensity and ended up running at 95% of what the SF4000 can do. I have stopped doing the 48 hours of darkness awhile back, so Harvest to come! Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️😎

What a run this was, harvested at day 70 of 12/12. Pheno #1 was the iciest from the start and hasn’t disappointed ever since. Amazing and beautifully stacked buds with and insane amount of trichomes! She looks truly amazing, very exotic bud structure too! The smells are out of this world with artificial cherry, cookies and gas terps. Can’t wait for her to be dried and cured for the final smoke test!
