Lilly x White Widow is doing great. She is bulking nicely with a frosty coating. She really loves the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights. She is due for a solution change soon. I may try to stretch it out till bulking is over. I want her to be juiced to fill in good, and dense.

it's amazing, this growth looks much better than my first attempt, my decision was to put a smaller pot and change the light - the girl really liked it, FastBuds goriilla cookies with a small space manage perfectly:).

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 35 start of week 5 since sprout Today I increased my ppfd to 410 highest, 400 center, and 385 lowest (also raised the light panel to 32 inches and increased the wattage to my second tick up of 5) temp and humidity are set at 74F/63%RH/33%IL Vent Oldest leaves are looking more and more crusty now and crack when touched. And now one of my newest leaves are starting to show signs of the brown spots. HST looks to be going okay as all branches turned upward in a day - seems like the stems are now dried out but I could just be noticing hardwood setting in - I know they are still letting something through as the newest nodes are starting to grow - hoping it's just a transition to the new position but will obviously monitor Defoliation, removed the 4 oldest leaves affected by the brown spots to see it it speeds up on the next leaf. Did light LST to adjust binds and ensure they are not constricting the branches. Day 36 (late entry but this happened yesterday) Stats were all checked, VPD 1.0 with 73F/64%RH/33% IL Vent - Light measured ppfd at 410 highest, 400 center, and 390 at lowest Took control stats - 3 soil ph meter tests 5.35, 5.24, and 5.33 - truly concerned this is my issue, I went with hardwood ash from my grill. Measured 1/3rd cup and sprinkled it over he whole top being sure not to get any directly on the plant for fear of burn - used a gallon of de-chlorinated tap water at 8.06ph to water it in. Noticed side runoff but looked like less than a quart came out. This is where I realized I never change my drip tray out before I did this, so ppm test would be worthless so I skipped it. Day 37 Took stats this morning- VPD and lights mostly the same as yesterday, but with new growth the lights changed a little - ppfd at 410 highest, 400 center and 400 at lowest. took control pictures for each section again for comparison still showing more brown spots spreading over the oldest leaves. However the hardwood ash seems to have helped the ph. I took 3 soil meter readings this morning and got 6.27, 6.56, and 6.69 for avg of 6.506 Now I will watch to see if the feed nutes can get through and help stop the spread of the issue. Day 38 Checked ph meters - liquid meter needs slight calibration but since Im not using it today, I'll do it later. However my soil meter is still spot on. So I took 3 readings - 6.11, 6.09, and 6.1 for and avg of 6.1 - falling from yesterday by about .4 - also took a picture to show where I have been random in my soil checks Took test pictures of each quarter again. UL, UR, LL, and LR - each quarter got progressively worse still however the new growth seems to be doing pretty good still. - I dont want to take the older ones off until she shows a positive response to something. (only have these and the new leaves left.) So I plan to treat with feed dunk/de chlorinated tap again (not today, in a day or two) Did some slight adjusting of the branches to keep them the same height as the left side was lifting the binds out of the soil. ppfd now at 430 highest, 420 at center and 415 at lowest - VPD steady at 1.0 using 73F/64% RH/33%IL Vent Day 39 Did 3 morning readings of ph - 6.84, 6.78, and 6.85 for an avg of 6.823(higher than yesterday's avg by .7 and 2 days before by .3 so I will continue to monitor so that I can catch it before it runs up by flushing with lower ph feed or water) She is growing as noted by the increase in height now. close to 9 inches tall here and the 8 cola tops look fairly level so I didnt do any LST or bind adjustments. But measured ppfd and got 455, 440, 435, and 425 over the 4 new growth areas. VPD still consistent at 1.0 - 73 to 76F/ 63 to 64% RH/ 33% IL Vent Brown spots are still increasing and the leaves are beginning to taco as the last ones did. New growth doesnt seem to be showing any signs yet, so fingers crossed I got it with ph. Day 40 Checked stats - PH seems to have stabilized, 3 readings 6.81, 6.84, and 6.82 for an avg of 6.823 VPD at about 1.0 with temp at 74F/63% RH/ and 33% IL Vent. PPFD was at 455, 440, 430, and 435 over each cola in same order as pictures. She is still growing so I took pictures of that progression with a tape measure. Hardwood seems to have set now as none of the branches lifted by flexibility just new growth. Still relatively flat Calcium deficiency seems to be staying on the oldest leaves with the edges now crisping enough to begin to crack on bending attempts. The newest leaves are still not showing any signs of issues. I may defoliate them tomorrow so she can have time to recover before binding the branches again once she's above 12 inches tall. ---- correction ---- Now that I have examined the new growth on a larger scale in photos, I can see the start of the issue there now too! Q!%#$ Day 41 Im going to defoliate the bad leaves and see if it progresses any further in the next 2 days and re-evaluate in 3. It's been 5 days since the wood ash treatment and the last time she's been given water. However the soil is still fairly wet since that was so close to the dunk before, so I plan to feed with nutes in a day or two to replenish more of what washed and and hope the ph was the single issue fixing the rest. Removed the other set of binds today and took front/back pictures of the leaves I took off. They were surprisingly wet even though they look crispy. There's still plenty getting to these branches as they stand tall in my hand for close to 30 minutes before finally drooping over by being cutoff. Noticed red stems making me think it might need phosphorus in that next feed Also added a modified tomato plant support to the pot to get an idea of what kind of growth Im looking for next should she still want to grow on

First week flower underway. Added liquid Koolbloom. Way down on the base nutes, this and my other girls have been showing signs of a few things. 1.Nitrogen toxicity. It was commented on my last grow question that the leaves on my Gorilla Glue grow looked like they were heavy in nitrogen. I did the research and it looks like they were correct. Dry crispy leaves, heavy dark green. They and now myself blame the full strength Advanced Nutrients, noting they are high in Nitrogen. 2. pH issues. I also started noticing a lockout isssues, like red stems. I initially thought it was a strain specific trait, but again was recommended to test my runoff - it came out around 4.5馃ぎ. Ive been watering heavy at 6.7 now with lime on top. Hopefully will help. Also, new Meizhi 450 on the way! Really impressed with my other one and the size accommodated my space very well. My flower room is like a L shape

I touched one of the leafs with trichomes on it. Smells VERY citrusy/lemony/fruity. Very excited for this strain! Buds are very solid. It's a hybrid with Durban Poison X Rainmaker (Citral Skunk x Mandarin) x Gorilla Glue #4.

09/26/2021 Starting week #7 of flower still picking caterpillar, and eggs of leaves, not to serious as we are on top of it. Starting the week with banana peel tea drench 2 gallons per girl, which is all she will get besides water till harvest. Still small flushes of pistils coming out I believe she (Hulk) is in final stage of flower (4) lots of orange hairs (pistils) but fresh one coming out daily albeit slower. Hopefully she fatting up in coming weeks. 09/28/2021 Week7 Day #3 Definitely seeing more calyx swelling. #1 is chunking up nicely #2 looks good little bud rot were caused from cattipillar poop! #3 coming from behind Will be last to harvest for sure.

Day 1 of Veg!: Both plants have shed their seeds and are turning towards the light. I was a little concerned with how they looked at first, very white, but I didn鈥檛 notice they broke ground for about 24hrs and the lights were off. They鈥檝e got lots of color now! Day 3:These 2 are coming along awesome! Almost have the blumat system perfectly, soil is staying perfectly moist and the girls are loving it. Added a air stone to the reservoir of the Blumat System to ad oxygen and move the water around. Day 5: Plants are doing great. Steady growth right now. Still adjusting the blumat watering system to get it just right, but I鈥檓 almost there! It鈥檚 getting a little hotter during the day. In the high 70鈥檚, but I鈥檓 okay with that for now. Lights are now at 75% Day 7: So my other seed never germinated. Put a new one in paper towel to see if it will go. Only problem is it will be 2 weeks behind by the time it comes up. I was really hoping to get a flat canopy all the way across the room, but who knows, may still be possible! Plants are loving the Gaia Green Living Soil mix, and today I just moved the blumat sensors to get a bit closer to the rootball.

Day 40-47 (May 31st- June 7th) (Day 41) For the first time in this grow these plants are looking halfway decent. Smell is ramping up too. I finally feel optimistic about this grow. (Day 42) The two jacks and the chunky blueberry are showing early signs of N/Mg deficiencies. I know it鈥檚 late in flower but since I鈥檓 experimenting with this tent, I鈥檓 going to give them one final feeding of nature鈥檚 pride 2-5-5.5 (tbsp) along with a teaspoon of oyster shell flour and some rock dust. Everything else I鈥檓 going to give a teaspoon of rock dust and oyster shell. There is no way these amendments will fully break down in time to be used by the plant but they could at least use the pH buffering and trace amounts of minerals after their recent leach. Everything but the BAOGC is covered in pistils that don鈥檛 really match their bud size. I hope they fill into their pistils because an over abundance of hairs drops the bag appeal like crazy. Over the last few cycles, indoor and outdoor, I鈥檝e definitely learned that different strains and phenotypes mature at different times. Sometimes really radically too. (Day 43) None of the plants are fading at all but they鈥檙e still looking good. Black garlic I know should be fading but remains dark green and toxed. I popped a developing seed out of the main bud too. I wonder if that blueberry herm branch pollinated it at all. It seems like plants don鈥檛 really like that Destiny dark matter soil by itself. I find it works better mixed with coco or promix 1:1. (Day 44) I鈥檓 starting to think I might be mixing up the TWOG and BAOGC. BAOGC took forever to fatten up last round and the 2 phenos I suspected already look done. I was thrown off by the similar terps. The beauty phenos are definitely TWOG (Day 45) God these Jack Herer鈥檚 smell good. Nothing but fruity funk. Almost like a vanilla or blueberry yogurt. I would say this stuff has the most overpowering smell in the tent now. I鈥檝e noticed they鈥檙e starting to foxtail like crazy. Blueberry#1 too. I鈥檓 watering a final low strength feeding of seaweed extract on everything. (Day 47) Everything really fattened up this week. Even at the beginning of the week I was saying I didn鈥檛 think they would fill out. Jack Herer and BAOGC specifically made some big gains and nearly doubled their density and still have quite a way to go on them too! The smell has ramped up and finally, everything is looking happy and healthy.

pics from 20th and 22nd October 26th for lemon It's the second year ever for me, and I talked to some people because I still get 8g per plant, and it's because of the mainlining and toppings I do at wrong times, and also because an outdoor plant doesn't always get the perfect sunlight and energy to repair itself enough. so the stress might be it. next year I'll try bending the main stem and never doing topping
