Adding week 4, as I had it in "germination" in the diary a week too long. Brings it in line with it's size/maturity. Messed up my lighting for 48ish hours, left on 24hrs a day, due to flip flopping on going to flower.

This week the soil is finally a bit dryer, and I noticed the plant asking for food, therefore I applyed the solution with the described nutrients always being careful with nutrient overdose (less is more). The plant looks very healthy, and the only comment is that it has a leave with a weird shape. It could be due genetics. 😅 I used bio-pH+ from BioBizz to increase the pH from 5.64 to 6.3 (the ideal I think). Please let me know your thoughts about my plant 🙌

This girl has gotten exceptionally thick and juicy over the last two weeks, and she WREAKS of juicy fruit gum and pungent gas. The trichome coverage is rivaling double grape at this point, and I’m more than ecstatic that I’ve got 4 more beans of this left! I might top her next time around, I’ll probably get a more even canopy that way. Either way I’m very happy with her :)

Look amazing !!!! One week and ✂️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

super healthy!! 🌱🌱🌱🌱

This is my first hydro grow and first time with clones. I have a few semi successful outdoor grows under my belt but the weather (hot AF) and caterpillar apocalypse (lost a beast of a plant and the tops of most others) last year are forcing me inside. Reservoir is an hdx 27 gallon tote with 15 gallons of actual water capacity about 1/4” under net pots. Attached to 1/4 hp active aqua chiller (overkill but got a deal and am in so cal; last years consistent 100+ temps ravaged my outdoor grow and can even make indoor temp regulation difficult) with two 5” and one 4” air stones in main res and one 4” in a 5 gallon top off res (not part of the system until/if I need it) attached to two 15L/minute active aqua air pumps. I wanted to have a bit of a barrier between the ambient temps inside the tent (rest of the room is a/c controlled) and the actual reservoir so I built a base to set the tent sans bottom putting the top of the res at the floor of the tent. This also raises the reservoir off the ground and hoping it will save some back aches once scrog comes into play. This also frees up 16” of vertical space inside tent and although I intend to scrog it should help as a buffer with temps and I won’t have to worry about light distance since plants are at floor level. To keep as much unnecessary heat out of the 4x2 tent the spider farmer light ballast was removed and relocated to outside the tent which I’m glad because during testing the ballast and light are each producing 120 degrees. Half of that is outside the tent allowing the temps inside the tent to stay about around when room temp is about 78 (a/c off but weather is fluctuating) with a small fan at base level and a 6” clip on fan for higher up. Reservoir will be 66-68 at all times thanks to the chiller. For ph management I am going to be using a torus hydro perfect ph (35 gallon). I’m hoping their claims aren’t just hype because they say it removes H+ and OH- ions to allow the ph to maintain 5.8 - 6.2 ph (without any additional buffers). This small fluctuation allows all nutrients to be taken in while a stagnant ph will prevent certain nutrient uptake hence a more complete usage. These are claims among others they made, let’s see if the science is legit. Unfortunately this being my first hydro grow I have no standard to base this off, but if I don’t have to worry about my ph that’s one less worry. Nutrients will be GH flora trio and cal-mag plus hydroguard. Not sure about additional additives, want to keep it pretty basic but suggestions for this nute/strain combo would be appreciated. I was intending on growing wedding cake or venom og but cake was sold out and venom didn’t look great so I ended up coming home with two gelato clones from universal nurseries. I’ve always liked this strain but wanted the cake because I’ve read it’s highly resilient. What I was not expecting was that these would be rooted in neoprene. I’m new to hydro and aside from the research and reading throughout my grows I usually overlooked neoprene. I guess it could be better than the rock wool as it shouldn’t leach and mess with ph? They are surrounded by hydroton and will be hand watered until roots make it to water. Update day 6: I went against my better judgment and initially painted my lid for light leakage. Ended up dumping my entire reservoir two days in because it was full of paint chips (even though it was formulated for plastic it still chipped off in high volume). Used a drill pump from HD, worked well as the intake is a 1/4” pvc tube I could suck up the paint chips and the water, but DO NOT USE to transfer anything but waste water as the output contained grease from the pump! Got a new lid and will just be using panda film for light blockage. Added a small humidifier because rh was in the 30-40 range, now temps and rh are consistently 70 degrees and about 65%. Nutes are 1/4 strength except calimag due likely to stoned math... Plants don’t seem to be minding so I’m not trying to sweat it much. Slight upward drift in ppm and ec as water is taken in or evaporates and ph is slowly swinging in the range torus hydro said it would so that is a success as I have not used any buffers. They claim it is more effective when it can directly interact with a root mass so it seems promising. New growth sprouting all over but no roots have made it out of the net pots. I went with 6” hoping roots will branch laterally exposing move root mass to the air gap once developed. Started noticing slight yellowing of leaves day 4 and some drooping (due to low rh as they perked up after adding humidifier) so I went from 50ml top feed daily to 100ml, also turned light down to 15% and everyone is happy.

Ya tenemos la séptima semana de floración de esta niña bonita (PurpleKush) de Kannabiaseeds. En esta semana solo le estamos echando agua bajada de ph,ya que en nada cortamos y no queremos que nuestras flores huelan y sepan a líquidos 😜

Moved to feeding .5 liters every other day wondering if they are still be watered too much. Any advice would be appreciated as this is the first time we have grown.

18-4-2021 TRAIN TILL SHE BECOMES A BEAST Good progress /branching out its a bushy plant Now thats for sure... Nice ... still not in flower but i think 1 more week till she change into flower , this week i also give a new batch of nematodes i dont see any fungus gnats flying but just to keep it on the good side for now ppm im gonna push to 550 PPM the water i use is soft water 100ppm ,

17-4-2021 ON FIRE : Wow what a good growt last week was crazy and what a big ass leafs! holy shit.. i think im gonna push the nutrions up 2 650PPM instead of the 550PPM now.. also still not in flower so that is good ! i only use the fish mix and still not biogrow i will do that the second week of flower, its very uniform so thats also great to see... i think im going to do some leaf stripping tommorow because thats needit ...i will do it strategic to minimalize the stress

Great week continued flowering did notice diet went from one feed to two feeds growing beautifully starting to see crystals on leaves or whatever makes leaves sparkle there is a lite smell but nothing to crazy

Hi! Really awesome week behind us! Girls are growing soo quicke. Every day are higher and higher :) im trying be gently with nutriens and looks like its very enough for them :)will Back with some more pictures tomorrow. I thinking to do defoliation. I want to get rid of all leafs below net. From monday girls get canna booster for first time then week after i planning to start with pk 13/14. Also im order Terpinator so its its another powder for my ladies from new week :) my friend just love this product and recommend highly so i found to try :) fingers crossed i will back to you soon :) piece guys! Day 40 i found a mutations on jack herer leaf. In the centre of the leaf is growing new bud :) look on the last picture :)

Week 1 of flower over going great plants are a nice size the tent is full up now I've moved a runtz muffin plant the 2 mac 1 and the mimosa to a small veg room so they can veg for longer and be ready for the next diary. It's quite hot round here atm and tent is hitting 27 degree not ideal but that's typical English weather sometimes good most of the time shitty happy growing team 🙂 any advice and help would be much appreciated send me a message any time I love the feed by Future harvest highly recommended see yous next week for my week 2 flower update thanks for all the help from my sponsors @Hydroprowashington @Anesiaseeds @divineseeds @monkeynutrients
