On day 1 the reservoirs PH is 6.2. I defoliated leaves blocking the inside/lower canopy to give more light to lower growth points keeping the top 2 leaves on cola tops. The girls are deff still stretching :) So far so good. I'm glad I flipped to flower early this run and could see even dropping the veg time by another week. Its tough working in a small grow space but I'm determined to master it lol. I lowered the lights intensity from 85% to 75% to give my tops 600-800 PPFD. Usually I just blast the plants with 100% until the stretch is over but I'm realizing that I'm way over doing it based on my quantum sensors data.
On day 2 the reservoirs PH is 6.1. The girls are still stretching and putting out new preflowers. My tallest cola is 9" from the light(the other lower colas are between 10"-12" away from grow light).
On day 3 I adjusted the reservoirs PH up from 6.0 to 6.3. My tallest cola is 8.5" from the grow light. Lower colas are mostly 10" away from light.
On day 4 the reservoirs PH is 6.3. My tallest cola is 7.5" from my grow light and the average/lower cola distance from grow light is 10-11". I defoliated large leafs that are blocking lower bud sites and or touching each other causing wet spots on the leaves. I want as much airflow as possible as I can not control my night time humidity which can be as high as 80%-90%. My last run I noticed some sugar leaves touching my grow box walls and this caused them to start rotting. I want to avoid that this time around so I'm being careful not to have any wet spots from leaves laying on each other as well as keeping all colas far enough from my walls. In the future I would like to have the ability for de humidification but being in a small grow box in a garage makes it difficult to control my lung room.
On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH up from 6.1 to 6.3. My tallest cola is 7" from the grow light. Lower colas are mostly 9"-10" away from light. I defoliated and removed lower bud sites not receiving enough light.
On day 6 the reservoirs PH is 6.1. My tallest cola is 6.5" from the grow light. Lower colas are mostly 9"-10". My tallest cola is getting 1000 PPFD while my lowers are 600-800 PPFD.
On day 7 I changed out the reservoir and adjusted the PH to 6.1. The tallest cola is 6" from the light. Lower colas are mostly 9"-10"

A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth.
It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did.
The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow.
I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet.
On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing
and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

Gorilla was first dry enough to trim and try. 34,9g. Fully on schedule
I'm really excited. It knocks me out of my chair, tastes really great and doesn't scratch my throat. That should give me proof that I flushed correctly.
I also read my electricity meter. Approx. 400 kWh since October. Are at € 0.37/ kWh approx. 150 € total current costs.
Her sisters will be ready for trimming, trying and evaluating tomorrow or Saturday.
Oh right. And I'm trying to ferment the whole thing in a glass. Since I have nothing left to lose here, I'll give it a try.
Thanks for reading.

Stresskiller
✌️
Everything went fairly well with this one. I mostly left her alone because I wanted to see how she would grow without much intervention. I still had to remove some leaves, though, because she produced a lot of them. In that run, I had three plants in the tent and one of them stretched a lot. Because of that, I could not set the light optimally for the Stresskiller, which is why the buds turned out quite airy.
Even so, the smell was really nice. This was the first time I truly noticed the difference between living soil and bottled nutrients. The difference was huge. She had a very fruity aroma, almost like holding a very sweet lemon in front of you.
The effects were also quite good. It was more of a daytime strain with a light high that still allowed me to get things done. It was muscle relaxing but not really suitable for sleep, since the high leaned more toward the sativa side.🌱

First week of the flowering phase and things are already looking promising. Pistils appearing already as you can see in the photos, and all 5 plants stretching out nicely.
I’ve now defoliated all of the fan leaves that were on the main stem, they were huge and had done their job of providing energy to the side branches and were now probably just taking up too much water and nutrients and were too low to absorb much light.
So now all growth is concentrated on the side branches, all of which are nice and uniform and giving several tops on each plant.
I’ve moved the light to 18inches/45cm away from the tops for the flowering phase. Temperatures have been a lot more ideal this week.
Applied the BioBloom powder as a top dressing, using the lower dose of 3g per litre of substrate, so 36g top dressed onto each pot.
Love how easy these nutrients are to use. Very simple to weigh and top dress rather than mixing up liquid nutes into water every time. Much less effort and much less time consuming.
And the plants look the some of healthiest I’ve ever grown. No sign of any deficiencies so far!

The temperatures, humidity, 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. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil.
Day 1 we had partly cloudy skies, low humidity, and temps in the lower 80's. I watered about 1/4 gallons from the water hose for each pot.
Day 2 we had lite showers in the morning, partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the low 80's the remainder of the day. The rain provided the water today.
Day 3 we had showers in the early morning until afternoon. Then it was mostly sunny with high temperature around 79. I noticed a few spots of powdery mildew on the leaves. I removed the leaves.
Day 4 we had lots of sunshine and temperatures in the low 80's. I watered about a half gallon out of the water hose.
Day 5 we had thunderstorms, rain, and drizzle early morning and intermittently throughout the day. Temperatures were in the lower 80's.
Day 6 we had thunderstorms and rain in the morning, then rain and drizzle intermittently throughout the day. High temperature for the day was 71°. It was raining so much I brought them inside. They've proven very resistant to boytritis, but this close to finish, I'm not testing them further. Four hours of rain in below 70°F temps at night is tuff enough.
Day 7 we had lots of sunshine and high temperature around 84°.
The #2 plant had a very mild outbreak of powdery mildew on the lower leaves this week. The #1 plant has proven immune. These girls are nearly finished. They've gotten loud smelling. The #2 plant smells like straight cat piss and very loud. The #1 plant smells like fruit roll ups berry and loud. I'll harvest these sometime next week. Over a very hardy strain that's taken a beating in the Ozarks Spring.

(12/23-12/29, days 56 to 62)
Hope everyone enjoys the pictures. I will try to add a video and black back or cover pics by end of week every week.
Week 6 Notes & Observations:
No new issues to note, no mites found after the first and I have used Spinosad twice now just in case. P2 is getting stressed over ties and no ring, so I decided they will both go on a ring after i broke another branch without realizing it. Found it the next day and then topped the other side to gain two colas there - still 8 set but with varied start time's and points. Still looking to flip around new year’s day.
Day 58 (last feed was day 55)
Tested and Calibrated my ph pens. Starting weight from each pot was 18 lbs and 8 oz, this time P1 weighed 12lbs 1oz. (12lbs 10oz before last feed) and P2 weighed 11lbs 8oz before feed (11lbs 8oz before last feed). Each plant got 1.5 gallons of purified water with a mix of Veg/Bloom Mix concentrates - 300ppm Veg Mix (recipe on week 2) and 190ppm Bloom Mix (recipe on week 5) with 1.5ml of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) . The ph on this feed was balanced to 6.75ph (6.25 last time). After feed this time, P1 weighed 21lbs 5oz and P2 also weighed 21lbs 11oz (both weighed 20lbs 9oz after last feed). I got ~8 cups of runoff on P1 and 10 cups on P2 this time (8 cups of runoff on P1 and 8 cups on P2 after last feed). Runoff for P1 ph was 6.42 with 970ppm (6.36 with 1110ppm last feed) and P2 was 6.41 with 980ppm ( 6.35 with 1170ppm last feed). no top soil tests this time as ph is mostly showing no issues - next feed will be 1.5 gallons of de-chlorinated water and 6.5 to 6.75ph again - I dont see any issues from feed or training.

The first 2 days I also gave voodoo juice.
21d LST works excellently with the plant. Side branches look powerful and grow very fast.
23d LST already has given me great results, I'll have a minimum of 8 strong side branches. So my main goal was reached: vitality will be distributed more to the side branches, and the height of the plant will fit in the box. I'll allow it to become taller, and if it does not start blooming - I'll do LST again. I've already prepared the stem for rotation. And I don't expect a bloom in 2-3 days, but it should be enough with the current growing dynamic. So LST2.0 is coming... ^_^
A few leaves blocking the light of the side branches were cut off.
24d All branches are on the same level with the stem. I’ll have at least 10 (hopefully 12-14 before flowering) strong branches + the main stem.
25d Start rotating the stem. I took off all stretching for the night and half a day. It restored the stem a bit, and I've made new stretchings. It is very obedient, but I start worrying about the number of side branches I have, and they start fighting =(
28d The end of the week. It has shown bloom signs, so probably next week will be flowering ^_^
LST gave great results I have 10 branches + 2 coming soon. Only one is a bit problematic, cuz it was crushed, but I still hope that it'll recover.

I started using the bud clips to bend the longer tops where I want them. hopefully I’ll be able to get a trellis net up after my drainage trays get here and I can suck out my runoff with a pump or shop vac. I’m thinking a small transfer pump with two hoses. vac is just too loud. next grow I’m using a tilted drain table and a pump out I hope.

Continued feeding with the tomato fertilizer, but I probably overdid it. We'll see.
Later in the week I bought some new Canna Terra Flores.
Temperatures outside are rising, which will soon become a problem. I turned up the light from 40% to 60% regardless.
Removed a bunch of the lower leaves and did some light lollipopping.

She's got very thick buds covered with white cristals. She's got a nice full smell (which covers about the whole house now)
Can't wait to have her dried so I can have a taste

Somewhat slacking with detailed photos from this week, been busy with the holidays/ family etc. hopefully should have a little more time to take some good ones for next week..
Not much to say, they are getting quite big! some more lower branches and leaves were removed and I've been watering every other day, about .5-.75 gal per plant until I see some run off and the top looks evenly moist.
End of week 1 of flower and there are Lots of white pistils, a pleasant smell (controlled by my filter/vent) and some major stretching happening on the strongest branches. Already raised the light by a few inches twice now too keep the distance over 12 inches from these stretchy ones! 😏
Also found a large healthy looking seed in my grinder that I've saved (Mac 1 supposedly, its good smoke)
