Loving the size of these things

cloudy days with 14 c min and 19 c max. Its flowering has been slow compared to other newspapers. The smell is already strong and continues to feed organically. She is flowering in 2 parts. I made an apical cut. at the same time there was also a light that gave only the upper part of it. the lower part is already in the last part and the upper part is just in flowering

Weather has been good to me hopefully it don’t change .. flowering coming along just fine keeping an eye out for bugs

March 25, 2023 at 1:48 PM -Ever since I started watering them with lower pH water, 6.0 to 6.3, the 2 BOH’s really started to takeoff. I might do some slight defoliation on all the plants. I’ll takeoff their lower nodes to make it easier to bend them from the main stock. The strawberry crinkle has very close internodes and is really bushy with large and thick fingers. It’s too short to try and bend over so I might have to do more of the defoliation job in order for the lower nodes to get more light. March 28, 2023 at 5:24 PM - March 29, 2023 at 2:01 PM -I’ve bent over several stems this week. I have only had one small accident with the strawberry crinkle. The top was snapped off somehow but I don’t remember it happening, but it seems to be taking it well. I watered them the day before with some tea with ph at 6.3. so far I could bend over things every day. They are starting to cover the entire pot. - Today’s the last day of week three.

Week 8 of flower is in the books and this show is quickly coming to an end. I said last week we had about 7-10 days and I was spot on at the 10 day mark. I was only wrong about the order. The cheese is ready to chop before the rest and the gorilla cookies, cherry Bomb and lemon haze will follow in due course. The cheese is a beast and it’ll take a little time to get it all run through the bowl trimmer. At least the big one goes first. Her tallest colas have foxtailed like mar, despite the late supercrop. You can tell where the sweet spot for the light is at about 10” distance from the canopy. Any closer than that and the tails begin to show prominently. It’s a good example of just how close you can get to these fixtures with a little bit of prior experience. It’s been noted for the next run😎👍😎. The res. is on an h2o2 only flush for the remainder until the rest are ready to come down. Not a moment too soon either - the pollen chucking project has stalled out waiting for these girls to finish and now that we’ll have a little extra room, we can start running our cuts in the aerocloner🤟. Not long at all now folks. Thanks for tagging along through all this. Learned a bunch about this system and we’re back to hardware mode to make some serious improvements for the next run🤙😎. I love hardware mode😉. Background/Repetitive Nonsense The strain line up on this grow is look’n quite saucy 😈. We’ve got 2 FB strains this time around - Gorilla Cookies (seems we always have some GSC cross in the works). Mainly because the colours look stellar and remind me of a sugar breathe we did last year that was 🔥. The other FB is their original Cheese strain... because we already smoked all our cheese... and we really like our cheese...😉. Emerald triangle was kind enough to include a freebie of Lemon Haze. Wasn’t really big on the list but we haven’t done a haze strain to write home about yet so worth a go👍. The last is a Cherry auto from Bomb seeds that we’ve been trying to get to for months. Let’s just hope that she’s not a dud like the last bean. The new digs for this run are courtesy MarsHydro👊. Their 2x4 single grow tent, paired with a shiny new 240w QB courtesy ViparSpectra. These folks were kind enough to discuss a collaboration and as a result, here we are to test out the gear with an inaugural run of autos. Each week, we’ll try to expand on some of the benefits of each, as well as any limiting factors or considerations that need attention when pondering purchase. Already I can say that both are high quality products in terms of overall craftsmanship. MarsHydro 2x4 Grow Tent: Excellent construction in terms of durability. Reinforced stitching on the zippers and corners ensures zero tearing. Conveniently placed screen vents and intake/exhaust ports. The ceiling exhaust port only exists on the right side. Perfect for me but not great if you’re running exhaust from the top on the left side (left side wall port makes up for this however). The aluminum frame is rigid enough to support the weight of the lights and accessories. Once you have some weight in the tent, she’s go’n nowhere and you can assemble and break it down in record time if moving or stashing the grow op. Only limiting factors I’ve noticed is that temp. Control will be an issue for a tent. It just doesn’t have the same insulating ability as a wood cabinet or other permanent enclosed space. No worries, this is offset by a small desktop heater and keeps the environment exactly where desired. The other issue was a production problem - the ceiling vent was accidentally stitched into the corner seams on the assembly line. Again, no real issue - just pulled it out with no damage or fraying to the tent or port👍.

Closest comparable to it that I’ve seen would be spiderfarmers line of qbs. They feature the same top-o-the-line components and roughly similar spectrums. Where VS takes the advantage is in the convenience of the dimmer nob which is easily accessible and works great at 50% with no strobing👍. The heat sink is also larger which contributes to lower temps. That’s not a good thing in my case but beneficial for most folks. I can already say that this will be a great fixture through all stages of growth. Where I know this light will excel will be in the veg. Stage for sure. Dimming function gives seedlings a much better chance of success with the ability to use lower lighting levels early on and the coverage area on a 240w is great. The average grower will find this panel suitable and fitting to their needs in a 2x4 grow space although I’d suggest 2 units if going any larger than that. The total output in this space equates to about 30w/sq.ft. Which is a decent amount of coverage based on power vs. Growprint. Ideal for veg. Certainly but, in flower - I tend to run closer to 50-60w/sq.ft to achieve higher yields. Again, similar fixtures have performed admirably in the past and while this wouldn’t be considered an “entry-level” fixture, I’d recommend that any grower new to the game not skimp on lighting and start with one of these. The price points are a great value for quality LED tech. These days, so there’s little reason to even consider a lesser fixture👍. I have no detail on limiting factors for this light as yet but have heard that stock branded fixtures don’t necessarily incorporate enough red diodes. I’ve seen no issue myself but confess - I’m no lighting guru.

I made a concoction of living soil using ingredients I could find of subcools formula. Theoretically all i need to add is ph balanced water. And a tea once I decide to flower. I'm waiting for some gadgets[ph and moisture meters]to come in before doing any extensive watering.

Giorno 9 Ho rimosso una Baker Delight e l'altra ha degli scolorimenti sulle foglie ma rimarrà nel box. Le due Rainbow le adoro già. Guardatele!!! Sono identiche!!! 😊 Le due Pink Gasoline molto simili. Una è più alta leggermente ma nulla di che appena travaso pareggio le altezze interrandola un poco di più. Le tre Barbara's Pie due simili ma una è partita lenta e tra dieci giorni (quando travaso) deciderò se tenerla o meno. Restate sintonizzati se volete vedere i progressi. Grazie e ciao 😀

Because of the wind some branches were broken. Fixed with bamboos .

Info: Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 47 since time change to 12/12 h. Hi everyone :-) . A lot has happened this week. The lady has developed wonderfully 😊. The buds keep getting thicker and smell better :-). This week I added 1 g GHSC enhancer per l Coco. in total it was poured twice with 1.2 l each time. Fresh osmosis water was prepared and filled into canisters. The tent was completely cleaned and each plant was checked individually under the magnifying glass. Otherwise a few little things were done like yellow boards against sciarid mosquitoes and blue boards to prevent tripods. have fun with the update.

This week I pruned and defoliated heavy. Removed every fan leaf and removed everything before the scrog. I didn't get as horizontal as I would have liked but I'm hopeful I won't burn tops bcuz I'm close, lucky I have the light rail moving the light atotal of 3 feet back and forth allowing me to use more intense like but in spurts. Also the co2 bag and co2 bucket really seem to be helping. Topdressed with endgame and loaded up with basilus, activated em1, orca, great white, king crab, mammoth p, ohn, yucca, alow flakes, count powder, root wise poder and enzymes. Also weekly to every other week I make compost tea from boogie brew. All my water is treated with drops of balance and I also collect and use rainwater. I have an irrometer and run from 10 to 15 kps

A sturdy plant with large buds it gonna be some good smoke it has some super sticky buds with a strong pungent fruit smell

Questo è il primo giorno della piantina non perdetevi la terza settimana dove applicherò il low strees training! Temperatura 26⁰ e umidità 80 %

Day 113. Third wave of heavy flush, girls get from 30 to 50 liters in time-lapse of one hour. Planing to chop them after 10 days, two more heavy flushes ... Control Garden is a beauty ... They are a bit behind, but hopefully next week i will start to flush them aswell. Incredible Bulk standing in front of fan is most matured aka damaged ;))) Not many seeds i see, so i calmed down a bit, still free cheese is only in trap, fact ... Day 115. Girls fade nicely, today got 4th wave of flush, best case scenario in 8 days chop, worst - in 4. Busy work week, so it will be hard to find time, wet triming takes to much from me, i do it too carefully ... Happy Growing !

This is the final week of feeding, hopefully the plants will be ready to harvest in a few weeks. After flushing only Purpinator and Fulltilt will be used in this week.

It's here, Week 5 Day 39 from seed. Busy this week but we have officially started flowering boys and girls! Week 6 updates will be more in detail. See ya soon!

She is starting to really fill in all the spaces on each branch and soon starting to swell. Even her leaves are starting to bud a little. I am very excited and happy that she is very comfortable in the tent. As always feel free to leave a like comment question or even give that follow button a tickle. Always learning something new everyday. Thanks so much for stopping by and checking out my grows. Good luck stay safe happy growing cheers!!!!!!

The SCROG net was installed on the last day of Week 6, I included a couple pics from that night, to compare with how the plant looked the next day, which was the first day of Week 7. My nerve damaged fingers caused me to be a little rougher with her while the net was going on than I like, but as you can see, she bounced back very quickly and was reaching for the light less than 24 hours after being mangled lol. I will continue to systematically defoliate the upper canopy every night or two for the next several weeks, and will completely strip most everything below the net. Every night or two I'll tuck any branches that need tucking, and will remove any fan leaves covering bud sites. She spread out pretty well in the net, and truth be known i probably could have gotten away with a 6 week veg after, plants are a decent size in the net with the stretch left to go. Flip happens at the end of Week 7 The manganese issue seems to be getting much better by the end of the week. Will keep my pH levels at 5.8 for the remainder of this grow, and any subsequent grows. I also devised a fan mount to save on space in the net. Instead of standing the fan, i simply cut a piece of 1x3 to length, drilled 2 holes in each end, large enough for zip ties to pass through. then I simply zip tied it to the tent poles, took the legs off the fan, and screwed the base to the board. I placed a piece of foam on top, as the screws were a shade long and I was afraid the small protruding tip would eventually puncture the tent. Works much better than expected. No movement in the mount at all.

I have been using LST in the form of a fan on medium speed to try and strengthen the main stalk of the plant as well as planter rotation to strengthen the main stalk for tie down LST. So far I've been impressed with the rate of growth and the overall experiment. For what it's worth, the growth wth is very very similar to a hydroponics growth. I'm sure as the experiment continues I'll notice some big differences. It does appear to have either a minor potassium deficiency or a little too much nitrogen. Will monitor and update as needed. The above signs may have been trying to indicate the main stalk was weakening from too much weight from vertical grow rate. This would ultimately lead to a fractured stalk. Is this what happened or is it a fungus or disease problem? Plant C sprouted within 48hrs and will be 6 days behind Plant A. End goal of harvest is still 360g from the two plants combined. Both plants are looking very happy regardless of the toxicity or deficiency. Strong strain nonetheless.

Well as always This week has brought some amazing growth and all that stickiness and dankiness is finally coming in !!! The Kosher Kush #2 (very front) is definitely a little bit ahead in bud development the smell on this plant is remarkably similar to the CANDYLAND strain it has a very sweet/ OG KUSH smell to it .. best words to descrine it would be a sweet sterling silver kush smell lol! The WASHING MACHINE’s are also starting to get their smell and you can just feel how sticky the nugs are going to be already makes your fingers stick together.. the smell off of this one is remarkably similar to Girl Scout cookies!! And you can already see the zombie look of the buds ! And finally the BLUEBERRY is smelling fantastic like a walk through a field of berries and strawberries and orange hairs are already popping out ! I had to do some HST to her but she came back by the next light cycle ! Well anyways guys im super excited for this harvest I know this is going to be some beautiful smoke 🌸🌹 ~ GARCIAS’S GARDEN P.s. CHECK OUT THE VIDEO ABOVE

Strain: Hillbilly Wedding Genetics: F- (Raspberry Moonshine) [Raspberry Kush x Old Time Moonshine] x M- (Wedding Cake x More Cowbell) [Girl Scout Cookies Forum Cut x (88G-13 x HP)] that old time moonshine.... I believe is a Dj Short creation. When I first started floating the idea to start growing the first thing that came to mind was find my favorite strain. BLUEBERRY! THAT DJ SHORT BLUE BERRY... Dj had just rereleased the OTM line.. I did not grab those beans but I am glad Ziplock got to it! I was graced with blueberry moonshine back in 07. 🤤 First time growing a strain with Girl Scout Cookies and a second chance with the 88G13 & HP Soaked for 36hrs had a glass with a lid(seems to be working for me) heatmat on top of drawer seeds are in set to 80 11/12 cracked open before planting{very abnormal for me}
