Started off by setting up the growing environment and dialling everything in such as; RO Water for the RDWC hydroponic system. Water Heater being set at 20 degrees C. Water chiller being set at 21 degrees C. pH being set at 5.7/5.8 Room Temp and humidity 20/23 Degrees C / 60%/80%RH. Instead of using rockwool cubes to place my seeds, I put them directly into the clay pebbles. I then used a DIY humidity dome to place over the seeds until they make an appearance. I have been top feeding RO water every 6 hours. Foil was used to cover the net pot to ensure no light leaks were going into the system. Highly important in DWC. Will add some light nutrients once seeds are more established. Until the next one!

Day 50: Girls are looking great! 💪 A couple of them are a little further along than the others. Pistils are starting to change colors. PPM's going in are higher than runoff PPM. No change in the PH. In at 6.5 and out at 6.5.... Still have some rust spots. Still thinking that I need to dial in my light distance/intensity. Day 51: Got one girl that the issue of rust spots is not going away. Not getting worse, but just will not leave. Other than that they are still bulking up and looking beautiful. Can't wait to start checking the tric's! Using AN Big Bud for a couple feeds and MOAB for a couple of feeds. Have been feeding every water as my output PPM's are less than what is going in. Will keep this cycle until needed to flush or an issue occurs.. Day 52: No new updates. They still look basically the same as 5 minutes ago when I checked em!! 😂😂 Day 53: Went ahead and ran 2 gallons of PH'd water through them. This rust spot issue is driving me crazy!!! Will just use PH'd water for a day or 2 and hope that it stops! Day 54: Well, no new spots that I see. Probably too early to tell, but I feel better about it :) Day 55: No new updates today. Watered with Recharge. Day 56: The girls look wonderful and smell the same. Gave them a good defoliation today as they were extremely bushy! Thanks, B for the pointers!! 👊

Plant number 2 is harvested. Watched friends and my kitten destroy my house!!!!🙀😂😂

Day 22 - Covered a lot of stuff of last night on my last comment for week 3. Added a few time lapses of the last week of grow. Took a few top leaves of the girls (4 each) to allow more light to potential bud sites; Basically where 1 fan leaf was covering 2 or more potential flower sites. Don't think I will top any more as getting a nice even canopy as it is, plenty of nodes showing Now have a humidifier in there and strengthening the feeding regimen & adding Sensizym and Fulvic Acid to the mix. Removed the flood stakes too as they were inconsistent...now just have the feed pipes going straight over the roots EC now @ 1.3 (CF13, TDS 650/500ppm, 910/700ppm scale). Will keep an eye on them as not too sure if they're sensitive to feed or the Temp/Humidity issues I was having allowed them to nute burn by closing down stomata. Also gave them a dusting with Neem oil as I cant open the tent for Daddy Long Legs (Crane Flies) or Midges flying in!!!

They smell like cola sometimes, they are growing so fast it's unreal i think they may be done after 7 weeks! I'm sure i could harvest them now 😅 they look frosty and swollen.

SO I HAVE THIS MARS HYDRO TSW 2000 24 INCHES FROM FABRIC POTS WITH OCEAN FOREST AND TAP ROOT PLANTED DOWN WITH LIGHT COVER IN A SMALL PILE OF ROOTING SOIL IN EACH POT. HOME ALOT SO WILL KEEP AREA WHERE SEED IS DAMP, WILL CHECK A COUPLE TIMES A DAY AND WATER GENTLY WITH SPRAY BOTTLE. I HAVE THE LIGHT AT 40% SO WONDERING IF ITS A GOOD SET UP OR NOT.

I absolutely love to watch them grow! Especially that moment they hit their first growth spurt. I started with RO water that is remineralized for drinking purposes. The ppm is only 18! My tap is 156! So considering they don’t need much water, I’ve been stealing some of our drinking water. The RO water starts at pH of 7. After I add the nutrients, ppm of 249 @ pH of 5.8 while soil is still sweet @ pH of 7 I think my days are off as a new week begins on the last day of the previous week. I am going to leave that for consistency. 04/21 - Noticing some possible nutrient issues with the Fruity Pebbles for several days now. Going to see what she needs. Up front I’m thinking maybe just a super small amount of Amino Acids with a little Epsom Salt. Maybe she is struggling to access the nitrates from the neem cake. IF it’s a issues with nitrogen. We will see. Maybe she would benefit from some extra calcium?… Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Day 22 and I am noticing how these girls have been burning up a lot of potassium lately, dealing with the wind and sun 💨 ☀️, getting pushed around all day. I plant to top dress with some Kelp Meal pretty soon. Day 24 -> 4/22/22- a quote from the weather on today’s red flag warning and dust storm warning. “ HAZARD...Less than a quarter mile visibility with damaging wind in excess of 60 mph. SOURCE...Satellite imagery. IMPACT...Dangerous life-threatening travel.” I’m keeping the girls inside today. Day 26, I was planning to check the runoff on some of these girls, especially the fruity pebbles, however I messed that up as I also top dressed WAY too much of the seaweed bliss. So I flushed with plain RO water at pH of 7 until there was only slight coloration in the runoff. I didn’t check the runoff as a lot has changed with all that flushing. So next watering/feeding I will make sure I check the runoff on multiple plants. So the seaweed bliss with its 17 on potassium, seems to be the most likely culprit for why there is a bronze-ish color on the inside of the new growth. Hopefully a foliar feed of Epsom salts can correct the problem. Inside tent, lights on LOW. Noticing similar pattern in all of them to a degree, most noticeable in the fruity pebbles.

April 5, 2024 Day 50 This week is a major focus on Scrogging. The net has been installed and I've set it at 19" from the soil. Watering is also a thing as well. Lighting changed and will need a heavy focus as well. Plant differences are showing more now. Finally, the environment will be tweaked a bit. Banana Purple Punch A looks great! She had 4 tops that were over the net. They have been pulled down. She also got a few leaves cut off today. As the strain goes, keeping up is important. The majority of the tops are still below the net, but just barely. I'd say about 18" there. I'm expecting a good sized plant out of this one. Banana Purple Punch B on the other hand is shorter and slower. Don't get me wrong, she has the best bud structure of the two and has the thickest branches, but she is shorter. About 17" for the main canopy with a few tops reaching just 19". Nothing to be done currently. If she doesn't start to grow, I'll have to lift her up to keep her level with the rest of the canopy. Although, she still has some stretching to do. Maybe a few more inches? Who knows, she went into flower second, so she is a touch behind. When Banana Purple Punch A stops growing, hopefully Banana Purple Punch B will continue for a couple extra days. I will say that I have a feeling she will be the first to finish up. I will also add that she is covered in buds, top to bottom. There may be a couple popcorn buds along the way and I'll do my best to clear them out before she's done stretching. I'll do the same with Banana Purple Punch A, but she doesn't seem to have much, so it should be a quick snip. I'll check back tomorrow to see if there is any development. She got some leaves cut off. Maybe 10 total. Just ones that were squished against the tent walls and a couple that were overshadowing multiple bud sites. The nutrients are changing slightly. I'm taking out Big Bud and replacing it with 8 ml Overdrive for the next 2 weeks. I'm also increasing Bud Candy to 8 ml/gal per the schedule I'm following. Finally I'm removing the Sensizym as the schedule says. I'm leaving the Tasty Terpenes in for the rest of the grow until flush week. So next watering, I'll be making those changes. Banana Purple Punch A needed a top off today from the rest of the gallon I mixed up. She'll definitely need another top off tomorrow morning. Banana Purple Punch B should also need a top off tomorrow. We shall see. I might just top her off anyway and maybe she will catch up with the thirst. Lighting was also adjusted. After installing the SCroG net at 19", I needed to drop the light 1.5". That's a good sign. I have a couple extra inches to work with if they get too tall. I'm not seeing that happening though. I'm thinking 24" plants. With Banana Purple Punch B being slightly shorter at 22". That's my guess anyway. The DLI also adjusted back to 45 mol/m²/d. Of course, it should stay there while I SCroG the canopy for the next week. That should be all I need to get the canopy level again. So the light will stay there at 80% power until it needs to move again. Hell, I may have to drop the power down a bit if I run out of space. The environment is happy at 75° and 55% humidity today. The VPD is roughly 1.27 kPa. I'll be adjusting it a bit as well. The temp will stay the same around 77° with the humidity dropping down to 50%, if I can pull it off. I do struggle a bit with the environment in my grows. This most likely won't be any different. But the strain is pretty robust and the air flow is spectacular. I have 2 oscillating clip fans on opposite sides of the tent. So there's always airflow. Just a very light breeze. The dehumidifier is doing some of the work, but not a whole lot. The 4 plants in the tent with a full canopy of leaves makes for a lot of water vapor. Maybe after the stretch is done and I do a final defoliation, I can get the humidity down below 50%. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 54.3% VPD: 1.32 kPa April 6, 2024 Watering day for both ladies. They were both at the same water level. Looks like I managed to level them out for now. I've also decided to switch back to last week's nutrient schedule. It's only week 2 of flower, so Overdrive is a bit early. I'll start it next week or the week after. Most likely next week. I'm not sure how long the flowering stage is for this strain. Should be 4 or 5 weeks, but in my experience, most autoflowers take about 6 weeks to finish up flowering. That being said, I need to deviate from the schedule I'm using a bit by a week or 2. From what I'm seeing in the schedule, it's based on 8 weeks. With 3 weeks of veg from what I understand. These ladies went through 5 weeks of veg and will need an extra week or 2 of flower. So adding the extra week of Big Bud instead of Overdrive makes the most sense. I did leave the Bud Candy at 8 ml/gal. And I'm also leaving the Sensizym in for this week. Apparently it's supposed to only go through the first couple weeks of flower. So this week is week 2 of flower. Sensizym is still in play. Banana Purple Punch A needed a couple tops pulled down today. She's looking great! No need to defoliate... Yet anyway. Great internodal spacing and big buds coming up all over. There wasn't much in side branching with this lady. So there aren't tons of tops, but lots and lots of bud sites. I didn't check the roots today. They are all over the place. I'll check tomorrow just to make sure there's no root rot or anything slimy. Banana Purple Punch B grew one top last night that is now touching the net. The rest grew about a half inch. As I said, this plant is staying pretty short and compact like an indica does. It's still only the second week of flower, so she could definitely take off. I'm not expecting too much taller, but what she lacks in height she makes up in bud sites. They are everywhere. She also has more branches than her sister plant. At least that's what it looks like. But the buds... Oh the buds. Seriously looking good. Big chunky bud sites. Lots of pistils. I can definitely tell she's going to have some super dense buds and should cover the whole plant from top to bottom. I did check the roots today. She still isn't showing any signs or roots through the bottom of the container. I'm not sure what happened there. Maybe they will start showing more now that the reservoir is nearly over full. I just need some extra moisture on the bottom of the container. Hell, I might dip the whole container in the reservoir to soak up some of the water. That should spark the roots to grow more. Of course, I can't complain about this plant at all. Her trunk is massive and her branches are thick and sturdy. If there was a plant that didn't need a net, it's this one. I'll raise her up after the stretch, unless the other plants takes off even more. The main difference between the two is that this plant has a much more level canopy while her sister plant is a bit uneven. Definitely has some tops that need to grow more and catch up. They are just barely below the net which is pretty level with Banana Purple Punch B. The lighting need not be changed again today. The plants still haven't gone past the 19" net yet. Again, I'll change the light around when need be. Once the rest of the canopy catches up to the rest, I'll allow them to grow past the net then. The environment looks pretty good. The temp is spot on for where I want her just about 76° with the humidity being a tiny bit high at 56.5%. The VPD however is still within range near to perfection at 1.30 kPa. Update: I ended up snipping some leaves from both ladies. There were a few massive ones that were covering multiple bud sites. There were a few others in the lower part of the canopy that were blocking the lower bud sites. Now there's a good amount of leaf coverage. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.3° RH: 54.6% VPD: 1.36 kPa April 7, 2024 Not much going on today. No watering needed and no branches to pull down under the net. Banana Purple Punch A has a couple tops climbing over the net again. Nothing tall enough to pull down, but getting there. She's looking great as well. Very healthy and strong branches. I do have one concern. There are a couple tops that have orange tipped pistils, like there's still pollen from the last grow in the tent. Either way, I'll have to keep a very close eye on those couple tops. One is covered in orange tipped pistils, with a couple having some just on one side. I'm wondering if it happens when accidentally touched. It's the only plant that has those, and I may have accidentally touched, or something, the buds. I really hope she doesn't get seeds. If so, they will be a different strain. Gorilla Cookies and Banana Purple Punch. Anyway, her watering seems to be the same as her sister plant now, so that's good. I am now a bit concerned with Banana Purple Punch B. It looks like she never got to stretch. So I need to lift her up to match the rest of the canopy. Not big deal, but I was hoping for a level canopy without having to do such things. Either way, she still looks fantastic. Super healthy and strong. I'm still expecting some great bud out of this lady. Again, I haven't touched the light. It's perfect where it is. The environment is now on point. The temp is 77° with the humidity being 55%. The DLI is a tiny bit high for this age. 1.41 kPa. It's within range, and actually will be close to perfect next week, but this week I still want it around 1.35 kPa. Update: As I had to yesterday, today I was further observing the plants and found more leaves covering bud sites. Mostly on Banana Purple Punch B. Due to her tight nodes and compact structure, her leaf coverage isn't quite as open as her sister plant. So there were more bud sites being covered by overlapping leaves. So I snipped away the over lapping leaves. There were more than I expected. I must have missed more than I thought yesterday and then of course some grew and needed to be cut. I also tucked a few of them so not to go overboard with the snipping. Banana Purple Punch A has a much more open canopy with excellent leaf coverage. But some were definitely overlapping and had to be removed. It was just a few though, so nothing to write home about... But important in a detailed diary. 😉. Second Update: I decided to lift Banana Purple Punch B to be level with the canopy. It looks great now! Nice and level throughout the whole tent. Wall to wall with a sea of buds. And more coming in. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.1° RH: 54.4% VPD: 1.36 kPa April 8, 2024 Not much going on today. I took a couple leaves off that were mixing and overlapping with other leaves. Both plants were also pressing up against each other, so I maneuvered Banana Purple Punch B to a better position. Also, lifting Banana Purple Punch B up the 2 inches worked absolute wonders. Perfectly level with the rest of the canopy and climbing just as well too. Nearly all of Banana Purple Punch A tops are above the net. Everything looks fantastic. Watering need not be done today. They still have about 2/3 left to go. So maybe another 2 days? Tomorrow maybe for Banana Purple Punch A. We shall see. With the plants breaking past the net I raised the light today and had to drop the intensity down to 80%. For some reason the DLI was pretty high at 50 mol/m²/d even with the light at 24" it was too bright. So I lifted it a bit more and dropped that power down. Now everything is back to normal at 45 mol/m²/d. That should help a little bit with the final stretch. I like to see the plants reaching slightly. It tells me the light is right where it needs to be. The environment is still doing great! It's been around 76° for the last 7 hours and the humidity is bouncing between 54% and 56%. So that's great! The VPD is great as well. Around 1.33 kPa. The daily average is great as well! See below. Update: The light is perfect. The plants are reaching ever so slightly. Just wonderful. I also found some clusters of dense foliage, so I cleaned it up a bit. Just got rid of a couple of the middle leaves. The lowers don't need to be clipped. They are still getting enough light to absorb. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.5° RH: 53.9% VPD: 1.42 kPa April 9, 2024 Nothing to do today except watering. Both ladies got a full reservoir refill with Banana Purple Punch B almost overflowing. However, they are very close in intake now. Banana Purple Punch A continues to stretch with vibrant color and beautiful leaves. She's definitely going to produce some quality bud, that's for sure. As long as no issues arise, everything should turn out wonderfully. Banana Purple Punch B has a couple tops reaching pretty high. The issue here is how stiff and thick the branches are. There's still a lot of tops that are under the net. But just barely. It honestly looks like she is just about done with the stretch. Happily, I have her at the same height as the rest of the tent and she will get all the light she needs for the next 3 weeks or so. Regardless of height, she is super healthy and happy. Trichomes are starting to really show and the aroma is amazing. Not super strong yet, but I'll be expecting it to get stronger as the buds fatten up and trichomes really start showing. I also snipped a couple more leaves off. 2 from a cluster and 3 from some overlapping leaves. That's for both plants. Barely anything, but I feel it's important to keep the tops clear and open from any unnecessary foliage. The leaves are still growing so I expect clusters in other areas as well as overlapping in different spots. Definitely gonna have to keep up with it. So far it's going quite well. I didn't look at the light today. There are a few tops over the net, but not high enough to justify raising the light for now. I have about 4" left of space between the light and the exhaust fan and filter. I may have to remove the fan and install it on top of the tent like I ended up doing from my last grow. The environment is looking great as always. It's a beautiful day out and it's definitely showing in the tent. The temp is around 75° with the humidity hovering around 51%. It's perfect and the VPD could stand to be a bit higher now. Just around 1.40 kPa. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.7° RH: 50.3% VPD: 1.42 kPa April 10, 2024 Not much today. A couple leaves, raised the light. That's about it. So there were a couple really big leaves on the tallest cola of Banana Purple Punch B. They were practically overshadowing half the plant and some of another plant in the tent. Those had to go. I think I took off one more, but I don't remember. Lol. Anywho, I completely left Banana Purple Punch A alone. Nothing to snip and no overshadowing leaves. I might check them out later to see what I missed. I always find something later in the day. Banana Purple Punch A looks great. Her structure is kind of like a donut. There aren't any tops in the center of the plant. It has to be the way I ended up training this plant. I always pull the branches out away from the center. This time around, I'm not sure there was a whole bunch of auxiliary branches. Just strong thick branches with heavy buds on them from top to bottom. She's in great shape! Plus the center missing colas, it gives much more light in the bottom of the canopy without having to cut more leaves off. I'm very interested to see the outcome of this one. Her tops are a little mixed. All of them are at the net, but there's a few that are starting to tower over the others. Even with the net in place, I can't bend these ones down without potentially snapping the thick branches. They aren't more than 2" taller, but they are still quite tall for the size of the plant. Banana Purple Punch B on the other hand has plenty of central colas and outer colas. Her training was different due to her compact size and super thick branches. I should mention that she has almost all of her tops reaching over the net now. I knew she would start to push more. Let's hope for a couple more inches. She has tons of bud sites all up and down her branches. So I'm not too worried about the yield. It should be pretty good. I raised the light an inch today maintaining the DLI of 45 mol/m²/d and keeping the footprint the same as always. I'm wondering now if I should let the footprint shrink a bit to concentrate the intensity further in the canopy. Shouldn't be an issue with their height. I'd also like to mention I haven't removed any branches or auxiliary branches from either plant. So the more light I get deeper, the more quality bud I'll end up with. I may drop the light down to 22" when the stretch is over. I'll also check to see if the net would be necessary anymore. Most likely, but still would be nice to pull each plant for inspection and maintenance. Let's hope I can do it. I may find places with too many leaves that I can't see from the canopy. The environment is way off today. The humidity is pretty high at 58 to 59% with the temps being too low at 74°. The VPD is suffering as well at 1.14 kPa. Much too low for the flowering stage. I'll have to see what I can do to fix it. If I can get the humidity down to 55% and the temp up to 77°, I'll be fine. I'd really much rather the humidity be at 50% or 52% ideally, but something is off today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 77.5° RH: 52.5% VPD: 1.49 kPa April 11, 2024 A nice and easy day. The light power may need to be turned up, but I'll look into that tomorrow. I removed a few leaves here and there to open up a bit more space, as well as leaves that were crushed against the tent walls. They don't need water today, but Banana Purple Punch A will need a watering tomorrow. Banana Purple Punch B hasn't taken much water in but I expect her to need water in a couple days. The bottom of the container is nice and moist, but the plant doesn't seem to need much water. It's very interesting. I always end up with one plant that sucks down all the water and another that takes next to nothing. Very interesting. I wonder what I'm doing to cause this or is it just that much difference between the two? Now that they have been cleaned up... Again... They looks stunning. Both ladies are covered in trichomes now and are super sticky and smell absolutely wonderful. Banana Purple Punch A could stand to have a few more leaves removed, but I've taken enough for today. I'll give it a other two days before I trim again, then I'm leaving it alone for the rest of the stretch with next week being the last for the flowering stretch. At least, it should be. I'd say there's another 2 to 3 weeks left of nutrients before flushing. Probably another month left for both ladies. Maybe slightly less. Banana Purple Punch B is still super compact, but the way I've trimmed her up, she still has plenty of space for light penetration as well as airflow. Perfect. I'll keep an eye on her though. I did manage to remove most all of the leaves crushing against the wall and a few that were infringing on another plant in the tent. Those leaves went as well. The environment is a tough cookie today. It's not bad by any stretch, but the exhaust fan is running at full blast to compensate and I'm not a fan of that. I'd much prefer the fan run at 50%. Or lower. But it's raining today, so I'm not expecting it to be perfect. The temp is hanging out around 75° with the humidity bouncing between 53% and 56%. The VPD is a tiny bit low at 1.33 kPa. It should be above 1.40 kPa at this stage. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.6° RH: 53.9% VPD: 1.36 kPa

Noticed some slight tacoing on leaves, changed to my 18/6 light schedule to help control temps and give some rest. Noticed some nute burning also, will full flush next week.

Week 7

Day 21: So we are currently in day 21, I finished all my work for my growroom. They where pushed into flowering 5 days ago. They always need to settle first before even turning into that stage. So my gues that in the end of the next week we will start to see the first indicators. I still gave them veg nutrients this week since they are still in growing stage. I did notice that many plants have weak stems and where sloppy underneeth. Didn't liked that, so in order to have thicker stems and branches I decided to top all the plants ( not showing in these picutues, i did that after making the pictures) Topping your plants will create stronger thick stems and branches! Also removed the first 1-2 internodes on each branch. I kept 5 or 7 branches each plant. I can't remember the ''science'' behind it but I have been told that many years ago by fellow OG Dutch growers and Family members. Anyway It is importend to have uneven branches. So 5, 7 or even 9 but never 6 or 8. Normaly I would have loved a huge main cola and it is known by many amnesia growers to not top the plants because they make beautifull thick main colas. On the other hand, when having this much plants on each m2, it will create weak stems and branches. I rather have strong plants with thick stems and branches to transport all nutrients properly and not breaking when having buds on them or having to mayor support them. The leafs, stems and branches look fine to me. No stress or deficiencies. 1/3 of them like to drink thought which is a good thing but it really enjoying. Now I have to weigh by lifting the pots which one needs more or less feedings lol. Instead of giving them all like 5 seconds of water. Might show you guys my feeding ''barrel'' next week. It is a 250L one. Untill next week.

Week 11 for Lemon OG by SSSC Im not going to be touching her for a while just want her to start doing some proper growing before i train her anymore.

Bubble og I still have 4 of these guys going. A few of them are still dark green and pretty decent growers they have thiner leaves. I'm sure a few of these will be on the chopping block later down a few of them just have crappy start growth and they need the humidity at 75% or above 100% the time with the light lower than normal or they start to shrivel up. That's not all of them just a couple. Also I am only going to flower 8 plants out if the 12 seedling and I have 5 strains going so can't have half my plants bubble og (wish I had room to grow the full 12 plants at a time) It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

despite heavy rain again this week plants keep showing its tenacity to grow. Also noticed some leaf claws from nitrogen toxicity, some flushing should fix it

Start of week 5. Expecting to flower at the end of this week. Hopefully. Added advanced nutes Cal mag and PH perfect micro grow bloom. 2ml/L on day 29 08/29/20. And again on 09/02/20 Auto speed bud is pretty much an experimental strain since its so fast. 65 days from sprout to harvest. 3 are looking really good. The other 3 not so much. We'll see what happens

Took some fan leaves from the second branches off that were covering lower branches and tied higher fan leaves down a little, I'll LST more throughout this week.

After defoliating both Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barbara Bud) plants after week 11 they now develop more and amore flower clusters, since the light can penetrate deeper int the canopy now. The plants are producing trichomes like crazy, even the bigger sugar leaves are covered in them! VERY FROSTY PLANTS! The flower clusters clearly form colas now along all side branches and both plants fill up nicely. The smell is now strong and sweet with a clear peach aroma to it, it makes me smile every time I look into the tent. The plants love the Advanced Nutrients feeding schedule and are getting the recommended dose every watering.
