I defoliated my plants

May 8th, the trellis is getting filled out but the biggest plant is still looking bare and small

Not going to say I expected more as I did but I can also say wow they’re doing amazing and forming big ole buds! And the aromas are crazy coming from all of them! And I have NEWSSSSSS… so mystery revealed! On 2 big ones solo still forming! But bottom left is FASTBUDS purple punch and top left is FASTBUDS forbidden runtz and I’m so glad of it as I wanted them to be the fastbuds to get another finish or a better one on these and it seems I may not with the forbidden runtz but I will with the purple punch! My next run I will hold back as best as I can to do nothing but open them up and not defoliate or trim one set and visa versa on the others back to back to see the difference alongside each other! Be great too as I have more fastbuds to run and new Zamnesia to do on this so will be equal in timing! Plus I get to do some solos so will be a great grow!

These pretty ladies are stacking up beautiful!! Gonna be an amazing yield! My first grow with Kc Brains, and so far, I couldnt be happier. Fantastic fruity smell, and bright colored pistils! There are 6 of these beautiful ladies in this run! Feeding heavy and they are eating it up! Showing no signs of deficiency or problems! Some of the prettiest plants you will see!

Day 64: It seems to go well. I am still keeping an eye on the "hanging" leaves. I think they tend to hang a little more when light on, and less with light off but its hard to say if it is normal. It might be as @GrowingGrannie mentioned, they might be under watered, as there is not much run-off at the last couple of watering's, maybe 1l each time and I will give them a 30% run-off next time to be sure UPDATE: I have noticed some more brown spots on the right plant caused by Calcium Deficiency. I think I should up the PH a bit more, going for 6.5 this time. I will also increase my CalMag supplement by 50%, and do 30% run-off today Day 66: Thank you all for the kind answers 🙏 You all have different opinions, and it is hard to pinpoint the exact problem. I am almost certain that I got some heat/light stress as mentioned by @GrowingGrannie and @Chow_13. I have therefore raised the lamp and are keeping the dimmer very low, using about 140W in total. I am still investigating if there might be other problems to it. @m0use, thank you for your answer. I do not think they are thirsty, at least not any more, as I am already on the subject for the last couple of days. About PH, It was difficult to get a good picture of the PH solution, but it was light-green to green (6.5-7.0) on the picture (And that was run-off PH) and what I put in was adjusted slowly from yellow to light-green aka 6.0-6.5 (I wrote 6.25 but it was auto adjusted) @gottagrowsometime, thank you for the answer. I do not think it is a nitrogen toxicity. My leaves aren't that dark green, although they are a bit to the dark side but not like what I see on other pictures with that problem. I also think the curling is caused by light/heat stress as I just got a new lamp and are experimenting with it. But I will keep your suggestion in the back of my head! @Chow_13, thank you very much for your answer. I think you are spot on, however I am not sure it is the only problem... It might be as you say, nutrients are not absorbed correctly due to the light-stress, but I will not put all my money on that @Nugsery and @GrowingGrannie, a big thank you for your answers. The deficiencies might not be the same, but the cure is very similar. I cannot make up who is right, but I do have a plan. I will follow your recommendation @GrowingGrannie and @Nugsery, and do a flush, but with a ph 5.8 as both nutrients should be able to be absorbed in that level. I will then give her a light nutrient mix and adding PK, also 5.8 ph. This is almost the same solution for both deficiencies. I will then slowly get the ph back to 6.2 @ernesttwwg, thank you for your answer. I have known for some time I have some Interveinal chlorosis, but I do not know what is causing it. There is multiple deficiencies giving those symptoms. The tacoing of leaves, and leaf tips curling down I think is caused by the light, and I have therefor raised the light. I will keep investigating the symptoms you mention OBS: I will not edit my nutrient schema as this is only temporarily, next watering will be as described UPDATE: After flushing with 15L~ ph 5.8~ and a small feed with 5.8~ ph I still get about 6.5~ ph in my run-off water. I am going to do another flush tomorrow to see I can bring it down to around 6.0~ ph Day 67: I think I see small improvements on the leaves. The new heat/light level seem to have done something. I did that second flush and are still getting about 6.5 ph in run-off.... I think I will let her dry for now, monitoring what happens, and do another flush in a couple of days

Cherry Cola will be harvested soon. Crystal Meth will stay one more week.

9. Woche Apple Strudel Auto Fastbuds zeigt in Woche 9 ihre ganze Power. Sie wächst sehr solide und hat neben Mango Cherry Runtz Auto Fastbuds den üppigsten Budbesatz. Ich werde diese Woche einen Lollipop bei ihr machen und ein bisschen ausdünnen, damit sie ordentlich Masse in der oberen Etage aufbauen kann 😊💚🍎🍏🥧 Edit 2 Tage später: Ich habe bei ihr unten rum nomma ordentlich was weggenommen, das war jetzt der letzte Lollipop denke ich. Oben rum habe ich die Blätter ein bisschen ausgedünnt, damit alle Budsites genug Licht bekommen. Ich werde erstmal bei 75% Lichtintensität bleiben, mit dem zusätzlichen Co2 und der Möglichkeit den 2x die Woche Dünger zu geben, erleichtert den Nährstoffbedarf ungemein 😌💚🍎🍏🥧😄

We are slowly approaching the finale. I'm counting on two more weeks at most. Gorilla and Titan are getting pretty thick. LSD doesn't really want to go into volume. Maybe that's also a phenotype. We'll see what effects it will have. Hopefully it won't disappoint

This stuff packs a nice punch, one pheno showing off those cherry terps its 🔥🔥

Ok, so photos are finally in flower, autos will have to do with 12/12 till finish. A batch of 15 more photos is brewing outside the main door, all primo. Plan is to veg em out there for 4 weeks and then in the flower room. Will fill in missing spots with more autos and then a late auto run as batch 2 of photos finishes. Will get my 7 lbs or so @peakyplanters - slide in my dms

8/10 buds are fattening up nicely. Moved plants under growlight to attempt to take better pictures. Cant wait to see what she looks like at the end

Still fighting the heat, added a stronger bottom vent, managed to stabilize the temp to 25C. Relative Humidity is still a bit high, specially when opening the tent in the morning and at nighttime. AC working strong. Started taking PH measurements, though not very accurately (chem test). Apparently my mix of 2:1 Brita/tap water was good, the water in the tap is very alkaline (>8), the filter reduces the PH nicely. I read that Brita also filters out CalMag, so I've added a little boost. I'll stop using the greengro nutrient next week, I think it's Nitrogen level is too high. I received Johnny Green's Greengro in a grow deal, the other nutrients (except CalMag) are from the same line.

05.01.2023 Day 31 I don't even know where to start. These Truffaloha's are by far the most iced out plants I have ever grown. #1 is the most uniform plant while #2 is the prettiest and #3 the iciest one. They are also extremely stinky . If these smoke half as good as they look this will be the best smoke of my life 5.3.2023 day 33 I took some cuts of my mother plants. I will Flower them out and keep the clones as a new mom

new life is born I will do my best to make this beautiful girl grow up big, healthy and beautiful. Together we will see what kind of girl she will grow up to be
