NOTES:
Keeping the pH between 5,8-6,0 and EC at around 1,4-1,6 depending on system. EC at 1,5 seems to be optimal and my measurements are staying pretty steady at that level. Humidity is lowered to around 50% if I can.
The tops are now at around 45-60cm height from the soil.
Continuing the last heavier defoliation/pruning process that I started yesterday at the end of 2nd flowering week. I saw no signs of mold or any other issues as I went through the plants.
After this week I'm going to change the nutrient solutions on the tanks and fill them with fresh nutrients with minor changes: Dropping the amount of Grow from 1,5ml to 0,5ml and increasing the amount of Bloom from 1,5ml to 2,5ml. After the change I'm only going to refill the tanks without adding any Grow and will instead increase the amount of Bloom to 3ml. Propably a one more change of fresh nutrients until flushing with Final Solution prior harvesting.
Day64 (19.12.)
Some more defoliation focusing on the upper growth revealing bud sites below them and keeping off the moisture. Already got a trash bag almost full of leaves since they've been pretty bushy plants on average.
Day65 (20.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process.
Day66 (21.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process, pretty satisfied with the results so far. Light penetration and airflow have increased greatly so I don't have to worry that much about humidity or possible mold any longer.
Each strain has started flowering, all plants are females and buds have started to develop. Defoliating didn't seem to stress the plants as much as I thought it would.
Day67 (22.12.)
Day68 (23.12.)
Refilled and added some nutrients with a stronger Bloom/Grow -ratio (~4:1) and left my girls to enjoy the Christmas Holidays as I did. I'll be gone for around three days, after that I'll change to new fresh nutrients as I mentioned before.
One Ayahuasca Purple seems to be ahead of others, and a few other ones have clearly started to develop some buds too, rest of the plants are following closely behind. Each strain has some truly astonishing individuals, and I think Ayahuasca's have shown most variety between different plants. Overall everything looks pretty good I think. Hopefully can say the same after a couple of days as I come back.
Happy holidays everyone!
Day69 (24.12.)
Day70 (25.12.)
I added another Led light to my tent just before the lights turned off. Everything looks amazing!

Nothing new. Typical spring weather in midwest; 80 one day, 35 the next. Keeps me active flipping between humidifier, dehumidifier, heat, and ac; fun!
Have started to monitor trichromes. Plants seem as they will all finish at different times; basing that on orange hairs at the moment.

Benissimo questa settimana, ultima di nutrienti poi flush. Le foglie sono sempre meno a causa degli insetti golosi nella foresta

Well my lovely ladies grew wonderfully it was my first grow with LED. Definitely a little learning curve still. I ended up with about 700 g out of eight plants not too bad for the size girl over my head. The smoke is amazing smooth with a henna citrus then knock you on your butt I did harvest plants at different time so I do have different outcomes some is a little more of the knock you down while others are a little more energetic. Great girl have lots to learn will continue to post in here love you guys.

End of Week 15 (8th week of flower)
I have stopped the CO2 supplementation for this week and onwards as the plants naturally slow down photosynthesis and it is not needed during the last 2 weeks of flower.
Also raised the lights by 5cm to make sure the trichomes don't get damaged and also dropped the RH and temperatures even more than last week, and surely the colours are becoming more and more vibrant as the ladies are fading into their autumn shades.
Feeding just water since middle last week, all I'm doing is giving the ladies PH correct water until harvest to naturally deplete the soil from nutrients and flush out the soil slowly this will help bring out even more colours as the ladies use up the remaining nutrients stored in their leaves as they reach the end of their life cycle.
Pest Report: None
Smell Report: Staaaaanky!

馃憠The plant was 11" tall. it probably would have been 12 or more if not FIM'd. It almost doubled in its overall size and total vegetation. The FIM has all the secondary branches poking out from under the large fan leaves. I do a little tucking to help them soak up the rays. I may not have FIM'd low enough or something because the leaves that were the outside of the growth node I snipped have gotten big. They just look like they have no tips. I think I ended up with the desired FIM goal of 4 new growth tips that will be cola's.
馃憠I will assist the branches get maximum access to light by rotating the pot frequently, I will also either support or direct them with bamboo steaks that I will attach to the metal spikes that are attached to the hoop ground the base of the pot. Its just the top of a tomato cage turned upside down with the top hoop around the base of the pot. It fits it snugly and doesn't slip. This allows me to attach the support steaks to the outside of the pot instead of inside in the media. I didn't like having the plant inside a cage or with sticks in the way when its small. It allows me easy access to the plant, and an easy way to add the support when the plant needs it as it get bigger.
馃憠I switched to week 4 nutrients this week and will probably be a week behind the timeline of the nutrient chart from GH because the plant had a slow start. The pH is always targeted to 5.9, the EC for a batch is 1.54. I have learned enough in the short time Im growing to understand what each nutrient week batch can do for the plant and am fairly confident I can judge the plants growing stage to match it. The 4th week is called transition and I believe thats accurate for my plant. it hasn't declared as of today, but I am anticipating that this coming week some time.
馃憠The runoff has been very consistent and I only added the low EC rinse of 1.5 liter one time. I always immediately follow a low ec feeding with a regular batch of nutrient. The last two days the run-off volume has started to lessen and the EC staying only 20EC above the inflow. Ive been averaging .75l for total run-off volume following a 1.5l fertigation. Tonight's run-off was .5l and 1.74EC. The lower run-off is due to the plant having more roots and being able to drink more of the moisture. when the run-off drops below 20% of the inflow volume I will increase the total volume in 1/4l increments.

Updating two days early but wicked happy with the progress so far. Starting to understand the strain and what it likes to be fed so just trying to adapt to it and really lock in on a smooth feeding schedule.
Have been against pruning in the past but couldn't resist attempting "Nebulas Manifold" and finally topped after the 6th node finally developed this morning. Topped on the 3rd node with leaving a stump for connection and trimmed the remaining nodes below. Was pretty surprised at how much they were reaching when I check in on them tonight but happy to see they're still crankin.
Time to wait for the 4th node and top again.
As always, any questions, comments or suggestions are always welcome! Thanks!

From beginning to end i experienced 0 issues. I had great audience on GrowDiaries who helped me with suggestions and quick fixes to small issues they noticed. every question i had here got an answer and with nothing but love and respect, no one trying to slow down or make fun of being new. world has a lot to learn about treating each other like this.馃挭
The Advanced Nutrients pH perfect helped me and made this a breeze. Not to mention the amazing genetics of Humboldt Seeds Company. The grow process was phenomenal i saw change daily. Like HUUGE differences. Especially when I introduced BudCandy and Bud Ignitor by Advanced Nutrients.馃槏. I Highly recommend all of these products! so affodable on amazon and come right to your door. its a WIN WIN WIN. great price, amazing product, comes right to my house!
The harvest was amazing, the aroma was incredible, the glue like finger tips i had with the gloves were mesmerizing. I spent a total of 7 Hours trimming everything to my liking and satisfaction. It was worth every second! I had just shy of an ounce from both plants wet, i am currently waiting for the dry number. I have all my beautiful flower inside the MyHerbsNow Dryer and in another 24-40 hours i will have a number for all my GROWMIES! Also i will post when i have made Bubble Hash with thay FAT bag of trim. Its like a huge piece so damn sticky 馃い i love it.
I love you all and all the support, i can not wait to start my next batch! Have some beautiful things in the works! 馃槈 STAY TUNED! STAY SAFE! And KEEP THE PASSION ALIVE! Happy growing!馃檹馃憢馃檶
SO UPDATE! OCTOBER 3rd 2019 finally dry in thee herbs now drier and i bought a new scale cause it seemed off not even an ounce wet! TURNS OUT 57grams dry!!!! Wooo!!!!! Spoke with the owner of herbsnow did some reverse calculations and the wet number was 69.6 WET. What a disaster
UPDATE ON THE SMOKE OF THE GOOD STUFF! the high is still really good super clean tasting. my head feels like it is vibrating, lower back pain is gone. i feel high but do not feel lazy :)
again thank you everyone for your support and love. until the next one. be safe 馃槝

The colors this week are almost overwhelming! I am particularly excited as last time I ran her she wasnt nearly as colorful. The scent is also really starting to get up there & is noticable even with carbon filter. Shes starting to have a few pistols wither so she cant have long left. Check back next week to see just how fast she buds & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!

The run down:
In Flower tent
Full Bloom nuets
Pussy Galore (FF7) stretch has ended she is bulking like crazy
Octopussy(LSD) Stretch finally ending she has more room now
Plenty (GC) Just a damn beautiful plant bulking starting great, stretch been gone for a couple of days now
Half n' Half
12ml/gal Grow 12ml/gal Bloom + kanga
Solitaire (CC) Getting larger entering full flower will switch when I see more hair
Chew Mee (F2) Ditto
Bambi (F6) Ditto as well
In auto tent switching to 12-12 today -
Still on 20ml/gal GrowA/B +kanga
Dink(FF2) Is just doing great!
Tiffany Case - Gold Leaf ditto
Thumper - FB FFT-8 Ditto
Holly Goodhead - FB FFT-7 Ditto
Mary Goodnight - ILGM Gold Leaf Ditto
Clones:
.75ml/L Grow A/B
All made it though not all will be selected having to start that process now as they wont want to stay in those solos very long
1/13
Reduced bloom nuets for full flower seeing a bit of sign the N is too high.
All others look solid so took it down 20% leaving PK as is
1/14
Everything got a dose of Neem oil, pots only
Some didnt like the bloom nuet drop putting it back
Wondering about the LSD/Octopussy first time growing this in photo so kind of winging it. Not sure if something is at her or just the way it grows.
Dont see anything unexpected still dealing with a small population of gnats. Prob never be rid of them until we can get toxic on em.
Auto tent is coming along began introducing bloom nuets to all
16ml/gal GrowA/B 4ml/gal Bloom
Dink, its hard to imagine that plant a month ago
Clones got a coat of Neem oil a bit of white fungus was trying to set up
12/16
Its all looking good, the issues we have we expected
Made up the last pot for the clones with about 4 gallons of coco/perlite left over out of the original 40 gallons of coco, not bad 馃槑
May well be the last pot I make up here, *sniff sniff* 馃槣
Good night and thanks for all the fish

Into their second week of flowering and holy hell. The dark devil is going crazy !!! I can't believe at how fast it's flowering. The buds seem to double in size daily. I am going to boost the feeding to every other watering. Instead of the every third day feeding them. The dark devil i mainlined seems to be on the exact same schedule as the control plant her flowering period happened pretty quickly idk if i would mainline again.
