This girl blew me away , absolute beast of a plant

Week 4: Looking good...

START OF WEEK 8 of the critical start of week 7 for the girl scout coockies. the critical is the plant u see first the coockies are in top left corner and bottom right. the midle and top right are my 2 new criticals who are still in VEG but i put them in the flowertent to speed it up a litle (the light is stronger and i got the space) when the flower light goes out i move those back to my veg room (bathroom uhum) 😅 nothing too special this week ill probably harvest the critical next weekend and let the coockies go another 3-4 weeks. the buds are fattening and i see the tips of those leaves have slight signs of nute burn so just water from here. see u next week (edit: lol the critical has major calmag issues do not watch those leaves shes almost done and surviving my heatwave torture tent)

Start of week 2 flowering. This girl is hungrier than her round 1 sister. Probably because of the extra veg time, she has developed more root and plant mass that needs more nutrients. The plant itself is growing nicely, stretching a little and filling out.

Last week of flush now. Still feeding the active sugar boost from Natures Delight and seems to be working wonders. I've enquired about this and it's fine to feed in flush. Flush is showing signs of deficiency which is good as means those fan leaves are being sucked dry :D

hello beautiful ones, they managed to enter flowering!! everything is going smoothly apart from a few insects... I think it's normal when you do them outdoors. They have been flowering for a week and continue to grow every day! DAJE ROMA DAJE

Die Purple Punch wächst ein wenig langsamer als die Purple Queen und hängt mittlerweile schon ca 10 Tage hinterher. Ansonsten bin ich mit dem Wachstum zufrieden.

Water 26.7.22week5/1

the flush started, 2-3 weeks of flush .... a plant is almost mature, but having had two phenotypes that are somewhat different at the genetic level, one or the other will mature slightly more (in view of sativa prevalence) it will be harvested when fully ripe. very sweet and fruity smells, really good and strong ...

Another week and not much has changed. This lady is very picky with feedings. Been having trouble keeping her happy the last week now. She has started to frost up a bit which is nice to see. I have to say I am a little confused as to how this is a Fast Version. She is the slowest flowering plant I have and she was billed as being the quickest?? 🤔 She is starting to smell a little now and the smell is quite sweet 😁 Hopefully I can dial his lady in in the coming week. I’m thinking I want to retry this girl indoor and see if I can control her better inside. I think my main issue was pot size this time and a late transplant. But 🤞 I can still get it to the finish line. 😎🍿 I am considering trying to move her out of the greenhouse this weekend. We will see if I can wiggle her out the small door lol.

These ladies are really starting to stretch. Especially the Red Hot Cookies, holy cow they are getting big quick. Starting to see preflowers on all of the ladies. I will update throughout the week. 😀

Unfortunately, the Blue am and dynamighty (also due to their long flowering periods) didn't make it. Told my roommate to cut the plants when I saw that video and those pics but it was far to late already..

At the beginning of this week I put the plants on 12-12 in terms of feeding I only watered with PH 6 because they have some burnt leaf tips next week I will start flowering feeding.This morning when I opened my tent my fan fell on a plant and it broke a main stem. Hopefully they will survive 😭

8/17/19 I took 6 more clones prior to spraying her with silver. She has been outside for 1 week. I can already smell the tangerine. 😁 Time will tell. The clones are growing like crazy. My original date to start flowering the first 8 maybe more was 9/7/19.... but its going to get too crowded really soon. 30 plants in a 2 foot × 3 foot area gets tight quickly. And watering is a f××king nightmare daily... I actually lift each plant every day to see if it needs water. It never lies, you can always feel it. It's the best way to know. My light is wonderful...I could not be happier. It's an HLG 100 V2 4000k Quantum board. I still have two 19w lights on the side but I will move them to the second level. To use all my space. I got 6 more babies coming.

En esta 3ra semana le corte los primeros 4 brotes a cada planta, ya que considero que esos primeros brotes quedan tapados por la luz y no se desarrollan tanto. Han crecido de buena manera, aunque el color verde de las hojas no es pareja, quizás la poda les afectó un poco o porque la extracción sigue siendo pasiva para mantener la humedad y eso afecta al proceso metabolico. Durante la próxima semana el fertilizante de root-juice lo cambiaré por vitamax pro, y mejorare la entrada y salida de aire. .... Se me había olvidado agregar a la solución de agua de bidon Cal-max, tal vez eso les faltaba, lo tendré en cuenta.

Just water and honey for last few days. I washing my babies with water and honey. Finaly fnishing this project very proud. It finished. Trimming time next few days

Week begins 8/12 LAST FEED 2 gallons 8/12 AFTER A RAINING NIGHT. 8/13 I've found what appears to be septoria on a couple plants. Looks like the weather will be OK tonight so I can apply organocide or something similar before dark. I've seen random pillar damage so this will be a two-for. I also should move the middle plant back and utilize my space more. Ph seems on point around 7.3. Higher in some places of the soil. I've noticed what looks like root issues on my blueberry. Winds were horrible yesterday and this plant doesnt hace a vertical trellis for support. Stem was pretty wobbly for a while but the plant seems to be growing fine. Either that or a jpn beetle munched the top of a bud. That's probably what happened. It was in the low 50's this morning. That's a 40 degree temperature swing in just a few days. This grow season has been the most challenging I've faced. Of course it had to happen when personal, family, and health concerns rear their head. Oh well. I can only do my best. 8/14 Went over at 5am to apply organocide to treat WPM or septoria as well as insecticide for pillars. I got there and one of my healthiest plants had been turning a little lime green now it was drooped over just like the larger GDP. This one is a 9lb kush though and they were doing good. Now it looks like it's dead over night. Maybe it's that liquid kool bloom. The soil seemed dry so I watered the plants. It MIGHT have picked ok a little. I'll have to check tonight. If not something is going on at night or in the rootzone and I really don't know what the fuck is going on. I will post updates and check later tonight. Damn. This has been a real challenging year. 8/15 That plant might be overwatered or not be draining correctly. At least I was able to get underneath it and the ground was dry. It was also hard packed dirt so elevating the bag may help. I'm going to wait a few days and see if things improve. This really sucks. I'm getting that defeated feeling. I need to get out of it though as I'm starting to see flower begin. The blueberry is probably the farthest along. I need to remember to take pictures of the newly developing flowers. Granted I've had numerous medical and other issues that have taken me off my game but losing two plants in one year is pretty shitty. I was able to fix things with COVID last year or the year before so I hope I can at least save this 9lb kush plant. If I lose this plant too it will be a substantial amount of cannabis lost. I need to rearrange my cage as well to make use of the extra space. Maybe I could've overwatered that plant that had been in the rain for a long time. I need to get my water routine down pat instead of doing the "lift the pot" method I have been doing. I went to several different commercial growers and got a bunch of crazy answers. Only time will tell. Last night I finished the organocide application on all the other plants except for the two babies and the drooped 9lb kush. Don't want to stress it further. I'll see how it goes. 8/16 Despite the soil drying out the newest disaster (my 9lb kush) is much worse with chlorosis killing leaves. Stalks and branches seem good. Soil smells musty and a little wetter than the rest. It was roofed to the ground slightly. NO water underneath. I stuck my hand in the bag from a bunch of angles. It's like the same thing that happened with the other one. I added to my surveillance. I also smell bleech and I hace an idea this might not be my doing at all. I can't be detailed but I'll find out one way or another. UPDATE. Went back over after the dentist and plants were dry as a fucking bone and droopy. I mixed up five gallons of phed water and watered everything. Even the 9lb kush that is pretty much dead. The soil was dry though. Everyone is saying overwater but I really doubt that. We had some massive rainstorms bur still. I need to review a game cam I have because unfortunately my cams went on the frits for a couple days (and the dogs went wild during that time around midnight) couple nights in a row. I fucking smell bleech. I'm a good dude and don't really have any enemies but we'll see what the game cam pulls up. 8/17 Of course we are getting a shit ton of rain. I watered yestetday because everything was dry as a bone I watched yesterday as my blueberry was almost horizontal due to the wind. I added several supports to every branch and a few more up the main stalk. That may be what has been happening. The wind blowing so hard it separates the stalk from the roots. My problems started after I took my windbreaker tarp down. I put it back up for this storm. Or maybe it's just root rot. I dont fucking know. I cut all the dead stuff off the 9lb kush thats pretty mucb dead. Its holding on though. I probably shouldnt have watered that but it seemed bone dry. Maybe further down was wet. I dont know. Extra cams are up. I didn't smell that chemical bleachy smell today so it's probably in my head. I have better peace of mind with the night cams up though.and the dogs though. I've had a visitor this year but he left very quickly. 8/18 We got a shit ton of rain last night. No damage though. I spent what time I had in the garden working on the 9lb kush that looked like it was dieing. I'm not giving up on this one so easy. It seems to want to hold on. Despite the severely overwatered medium (due to this storm) I cam see new growth that looks healthy. The branches also seem stronger. I'm cautiously optimistic. The other one straight up died. So I might be able to salvage this. I'll go over later today and check on it. I debated putting it inside for the storm bur I figured I'd let the rain leech out anything in the medium in case it's locked out or something. At least I've got a couple real healthy ones this year. That NYCSA is amazing. That's a strain I'll probably grow again. Resilient as all all. Vigorous and doesn't seem impacted by things like WPM or other fungal ok infections or diseases like some other strains. I got a great recommendation from my buddy to use pots all the same size. It makes things easier watering. I just used what I had this year. I had bigger pots so I wanted to fill them. That tarp being up I think greatly helped with the wind. It's down now so things cam dry out. Still raining bit not yard and no wind. I think that may have played a large role in killing the 7ft GDP. Wind ripping the stalk away from the roots. Or it could've been a million other things. I'll never know. I do know that I have a better mindset, a great set of resources and I'm learning something new every year. If I can br8ng this plant back to life I'm going to be very proud of myself.....and her. Oh and I'm going to buy new tiger bloom. I'll start beasty bloom (hesitant as it has caused lockout in the past) as it goes better with my other nutes than the liquid kool bloom. Plus I started getting portables around tge time I used the liquid kool bloom. That being said, after two weeks I can see buds where there weren't before so I don't know. Next year I'm using seeds and I'm doing things different. I'm STRONGLY considering rapacaps idea about adding a removable roof for flower. The more I think about it tge better it sounds. That and putting wheels on pallets (buddy suggestion) and I could attach my supports directly to the pallet. I've got a lot of work to do that's for sure. Plants look healthy but I needvto him them again with organocide to fight any fungal stuff or pillars that might be hiding.

Начинаю растить новый сорт моим собственным методом. Я его называю корона, хотя больше подходит название Multiple Symmetric Lollipopping. Это что-то среднее между Main Lining, Low Stress Training и SoG. Суть заключается в том, что мы делаем Topping выше 4-го этажа и затем все 8 основных веток разводим по сторонам. Четыре нижние ветки по диагонали, четыре верхние крест-накрест. В итоге получается эдакий равномерный круг веток, растущих на одной высоте, так как мы легко можем контролировать высоту каждой ветки. Принципиально можно и 10 и 12 веток делать, но мне хватает 8. Желательно иметь широкий горшок, чтобы было куда разводить ветки. Надеюсь когда-нибудь появится новый метод MSL с моим авторством. Итак, взял две семечки, а победитель по росту переедет в большой горшок. Гроубокс у меня самодельный. Две лампы HLG 100, но по факту обе работают по 50ватт. Встроено два фильтра и два канальных вентилятора. Один работает постоянно, второй включается автоматически при превышении верхнего порога температуры. Дверки на защелках, проклеены уплотнителем чтобы не пробивался свет и запах. Внутррение габариты от лампы ШДВ - 67х48х68 сантиметров. Помещается два куста, но я предпочитаю растить только 1. Как проращиваю семена? 1. Они всегда хранятся в холодильнике. При попадании в теплую и влажную среду семена получают сигнал к росту и быстрее всего прорастают, буквально за 14-16 часов. 2. Берем нужные семена и кладем в теплую воду (18-22 градуса Цельсия) на 3-4 часа. Это нужно, чтобы скорлупа размягчилась, а семечко согрелось и получила достаточно влаги. 3. Слегка маникюрными щипчиками расщепляем скорлупу. Делается специально, чтобы как можно раньше корешок начал получать воздух. Чем быстрее раскрывается скорлупа, тем быстрее начинает прорастать корень и уменьшается риск загнивания. 4. Садим в таблетку или сразу в готовый субстрат. Обычно я сажу сразу в готовый субстрат, но в этот раз решил попробовать в торфяной таблетке, чтобы выбрать победителя по активности роста. Как я готовлю кокосовый субстрат? 1. Я никогда не использую старый субстрат. Во-первых, я применяю микоризу и множество других грибков и бактерий, которые для маленьких ростков будут слишком концентрированными и могут навредить. Во-вторых, в старом кокосе очень много старых корней, которые обязательно будут гнить. С одной стороны это хорошо, но по факту это приводит к загниванию субстрата и образованию плесени. 2. Беру половину брикета, развожу в воде, промываю в проточной воде (попеременно горячей и холодной) пока не вымоется вся морская соль и затем размешиваю с вермикулитом и перлитом. 3. Заливаю полученный субстрат на 15-20 минут удобрением Cal-Mag (1000 PPM), чтобы субстрат набрал катионов кальция и магния, иначе первую неделю полива кокос будет забирать эти вещества из полива, а растение будет голодать. Если измерить PPM воды после внесения Cal-Mag и через 20 минут, то увидите, что PPM упадет до 600-700 единиц. Это кокос вобрал в себя соли. 4. Заливаю удобрением, в случае трех-компонентного Grow-Micro-Bloom в соотношении 3-2-1, PPM 1000. Также оставляю на 15-20 минут. Нужно это затем, чтобы кокос теперь равномерно вобрал в себя другие катионы (железо, цинк, медь, калий, ну и азотистые соединения, как то мочевина и аммоний). То есть мы целенаправленно вымываем излишки кальция и магния. 5. Затем, уже поливаем нашим удобрением с PPM 600-700 чтобы чуток снизить концентрацию. 6. В этот готовый буферизированный субстрат потом и попадет пророщенное семечко. Как я поливаю? В течение первых трех недель я поливаю через день. И не важно, высох субстрат или не высох. Кокосовый субстрат это позволяет. Далее приходится поливать каждый день, потому что развитая корневая система осушивает весь субстрат за сутки под чистую. Никогда не поливаю чистой водой - это только нарушает PH внутри субстрата и приводит к стрессу растения. Если нужно промыть субстрат, то готовится несколько поливов с нужным удобрением. Вспомните про то как после промывки падает PPM. Вот тоже самое происходит и при поливе чистой водой: питательные элементы вымываются с кокоса и когда вы начинаете "кормить" растение, оно голодает, потому что кокос все отбирает, чтобы делиться "потом", когда "насытится". PH на веге всегда около 5.6-5.8, на цветении 5.8-6.1. PPM стараюсь держать на уровне 700. На цветении 1200-1400. Если вы дочитали до этого момента и увидели страшную цифру в 700 PPM, то на самом деле ничего страшного в этом нет. Если вы возьмете обычную землю, разведете водой и померяете PPM, то он там будет куда более высокие показатели. На самом деле растение способно жить даже при PPM в 5000 единиц. Поливать растение с PPM 300 - это слишком бедная смесь. Как правило, все руководства ориентируются на земляной грунт, а производители страхуются и дают заниженные нормы, чтобы покупатели случайно не сожгли свои растения. Но если если у вас есть PH и TDS измерительные приборы, то вы смело можете щедро кормить свое растение, а оно вам ответит буйным ростом и плотными шишками. Всегда руководствуюсь золотым правилом проверки дренажа: PPM растет PH падает: у растения несварение и что-то оно не может усвоить. PPM падает PH растет: растение голодает, либо нарушен ионно-катионный баланс. PPM стоит PH растет: все идет хорошо. В каждом случае нужно понимать что было сделано ранее и корректировать действия. Итак: 19.01.2021, в 12:00 замочил семечки в воде 19.01.2021, в 16:00 расколол аккуратно семечки и посадил в торфяную таблетку 19.01.2021, в 23:00 уже одна семка начала вылезать из торфа, хотя утапливал. И это всего лишь прошло 7 часов. Чувствую кандидат на пересадку уже показал себя. 20.01.2021, в 16:00 эта же семечка уже отрастила корешок и полностью показалась из торфа. 21.01.2021, в 10:00 выскочило из торфа и готова расправить листики. Вторая семечка пока сохраняет молчание. 21.01.2021, в 17:00 росток вот вот начнет разрывать скорлупку чтобы выпустить первые семядоли. Перенес в гроубокс под лампу. 23.01.2021, в 10:00 умер... так и не увидев свет. А вот её младшая сестра неожиданно вылеза из торфа и вытянулась за ночь на 2 сантиметра, пока были отключены лампы. Пришлось ей вручную снимать скорлупу. 23.01.2021, в 15:00 младшая сестра уже показала хвостик корня с другой стороны торфяной таблетки. Завтра надо будет пересаживать уже в нормальный горшок 24.02.2021, в 14:00 девочка переехала в новый дом. Первые листики стали размером с семядолями. Поздравления принимаются, мы проросли.
