*********************************************************************************************************** START OF WEEK The Hawaiian Lion (right) and Tricho Jordan (left) are the two plants that dominate the face-on tent photos, and for good reason. Each of those plants is twice the mass of either Chimera. The HL is superior in bud sites, resin, and terp intensity, but the Tricho and the good Chimera #3 are both not too far off in resin production and aroma profiles. The weird runt is frosting up too, so we're looking at getting something unique and quality from each. That is, if I don't muck this up. I fed last night, and as part of that process, I mix my nutrients in a four gallon batch at a double(ish) strength. I then add that to my reservoir, which is shut off at that time. This allows me to work in the res, to both get the ppms right and the ph within range. I just use plain water to level off the ppms and then I adjust for ph. What I didn't do last night is TURN back on the flow of water from the reservoir. However, you wouldn't have guessed it from how the plants woke up today (see first image). I normally check the bases of each plant daily, and in doing so today, I noticed that one felt slight dry. All tanks were empty, but all plant bases were somewhere between wet to moist. This is how I spot check, and it's worked in the past. This isn't the first time these tanks have had a catastrophic issue leading to an unexpected no flow sitch. There's a filter that sits between the reservoir tank and the primary feed line. That has unexpectedly clogged on me in the past, but with no deleterious effect to the grow. That was caught within a day as well by testing the plant bases. I don't blame autopot for either event. Obviously, last night I was a baked potato and just forgot a step. The clog is because I use yucca in my mix, which is an organic material that over time in the reservoir leads to build up. I'm afraid to introduce hydrogen peroxide into the set-up, so I'm just maintaining my reservoir by cleaning it fully every other week for now. I don't want to kill off the bacteria in the environment. I'm also using some fungus, too, so I'd rather promote coexistence of a microbiome than serialize it, especially considering the plants seem to be on pace. **************************************************************************************************************************************************************** END OF WEEK Shit! I've got a herm. I've found four nanner clusters this week, all on the lower third-ish of the Hawaiian Lion. Someone, thankfully, spotted it in the purple flower pics. Turns out, while super fun to look at, those sweet violet flowers turned into harbingers of mother fucking doooooommm. I've never seen this before. I guess I've been fortunate, but I've also never had a camera this capable before either. I had no idea how small these pee pee's were. I guess I was expecting girth, but shame on me for not knowing. I rapidly learned as much as I could over the last two days, and I've come to the conclusion that I may or may not be screwed. The consensus on my situation ranges from either burn my tent down to thank ja for the blessings of feminized seeds. We're riding this baby out. I think I have fifteen to twenty days left and I think these little nanners might have been in action for ten days, hopefully less. I don't know what kind of damage will be done in that time, but honestly, I'm not too worried. While disappointing, my use case is a personal supply of bubble hash and flower rosin. If it's seedy, I'll wash most of it. I don't know what caused it, but I'm thinking a light leak or genetics. The environment is dialed and that plant hasn't shown one sign of anything less than vigor throughout. The spots that developed the purple flowers (lower bottom half to bottom quarter) are all in the vicinity of where I found the herms (four locations) and these locations are close to the edge of the tent along the zipper. I'm vigilant about keeping my tent and grow space in order, but a light leak can't be ruled out. I'll have to test that after the harvest. The herm flowers are minuscule and I'm surprised I found them. The camera was a great tool in this case. I sprayed the areas that I removed the nanners and then dried it, but for what it's worth, I think the damage was already done. That water bit felt more like ritual, but I'm still feeling optimistic that I'm not totally hosed.

Werde sie denke jetzt so lassen wie sie ist. Bin Mega zufrieden für mein erstes Outdoor Projekt. Die Farbe lila ist einfach Mega und der Geruch steigert einfach nur die Freude auf die Verkostung. 😄

Getting close to harvest #1 (#2 is already curing)! The pistils are still mostly white and stretching but some trichomes are starting to turn amber - I'll give it another few days or maybe a week. For the last two weeks I have just been feeding just water with no nutrients.

This is my 1st of 4 Banana Purple Punches that was green all the way through, I think the chances of a green plant on that strain about 20% so I hit that almost head on. Also this is the last BPP seed I had, grew 4 and gave 1 away to a friend, which also grew amazing and flavorful. Gotta spread the love (: Loved growing this strain for the last few years one plant at a time. Always a good strain to throw in the mix with some autos. They were free seeds that I will be buying in the future when I run out of buds and begin to miss her distinct effects.

A light berry scent combined with a dense taste of Gas, truly a very flavorful strain and the one that had the least complicated structure to care for. Unfortunately, I couldn't even manage to clone it successfully, but I will certainly have it again. I hope to see her again.

All changed - all tents basically wrapped into one - the green leopard complete tent. It’s been great to get them in , the power , the light- check out the original sea of beam in the flesh. I’m looking for a commercial grow operation to try and document a commercialized version of the sea of beam - please get in touch [email protected] For the shop to get your lights / tent and the rest visit thegreenleopard.com Sea of beam is patent pending and is an absolute game changer for yield , structure , lack of variation between top and bottom bud - just a monster PAR sandwich and more. I’ve priced my products right to say hi and give you the best - for growers by growers 🙏🏼

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Coop Poop, Feather Meal, and Soluble Kelp are ml/gallon of soil top dressed. Everything else listed in nutrients is ml/gallon of water fed to plants without checking the solution Ph. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 85°F with mostly sunny skies. The girls are happy. I think I missed hitting the nutes hard for mid flower. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 79°F. We missed the rain, but had a big dew and it was 90+ humidity. I watered about 5 gallons each. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 78°F. It was mostly cloudy and super humid, but again no rain. I watered about 5 gallons each. I fed coop poop at 75ml top dressed and Soluble Kelp 50ml top dressed. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 89° with clear sunny skies. Humidity is still up. I watered about 5 gallons each pot. Day 5 we had a high temperature of 88°F with mostly sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons. Day 6 we had a high temperature of 91. Skies were clear during the day. I watered about 5 gallons of well water. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 91°F with mostly sunny skies. I added 160ml of molasses to top of pot and washed it in with my watering wand. I watered about 5 gallons. Run off isn't an issue. The girls are rooted through the pots into the ground and the loved the K in the molasses. This week was a success. The buds are filling out and the smell is incredible. Like super loud lemon orange tang. They're sweet and the lemon mandarin orange smell can't be missed. I'm a little disappointed at the stretch and I didn't blow up the buds. I'm suspecting a combo of these getting more shade and not getting the right nutes at the right time. Even with all that they have lots of frosty buds on them.

Week 4 Day 1 all 3 plants were transplanted from smaller cups in to 5 gallon fabric pots yesterday and seem to be taking to their new homes nicely, a little bit of leaf curling but I did give them a pretty intense watering. I picked up a bag of Fox Farms Happy Frog potting mix for them now that they are in 5 gallons, hopefully they will be happy in the better quality soil. If all continues to go well with the transplant I will be topping hopefully in the next couple days. I will be trying to manifold at least one of these plants. Week 4 Day 4 All 3 plants seem to have recovered nicely from their transplanting. I topped all three plants today and attempted two clones from the toppings of KBGB1 and Jack Herer, made a mini greenhouse for them out of a tomato cage and some cellophane Week 4 Day 5 I cleaned up all the undergrowth below the third node in preparation to start manifolding.

Here we are in week six of flower and not a lot has happen this week other than the usual watering and letting her do her thing. Only trouble this week was updating GoPro had to try a few times. Other than that we got some rain in my home town and collected about 60 gallons that I'm going to use to finish the rest of the grow. Also, got my new AC Infinity CLOUDLINE T4, Quiet Inline Duct Fan System with Temperature and Humidity Controller, 4-Inch. I was really hoping this two plants would finish before the year ended, however, it looks like they got others plans. See you guys next week.

Growing nicely. Not the tallest, not the shortest just somewhere in the middle. Looking healthy & happy. I've read great reviews on this strain, I hope it lives up to it.
