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!

2020-07-05 New week. Reduced nutrients because of the slight burn on plant 2... and plant 1 drinks so quickly that it rapidly raises PPM so I have to actually find the right sweet spot. It's drinking about a gallon a day?
Plant 2 is still a week behind and slightly stunted but the flowers are coming out. They are more compact than Plant 01. This is supposed to be the same species but I'm getting 2 very different phenotypes on the exact same nutrients.. not very strong genetics? Not sure.

2020-07-08 Forgot to take pics this week! Here you go! Plant 01 has grown so insanely strongly and is producing so many nice looking bud sites, i am blown away!! I have had to 'supercrop' the top by bending the stem very carefully and adding a wire knuckle so that it wouldn't immediately just stand back up overnight. I tried this with 2 experimental colas and they perked back up and stayed laying down. They will slightly obstruct the lower flowers but the tops all looked so promising, I couldn't bring myself to cut them. I will seriously have to cut down on veg time next grow! I can easily stop at week 5 in the future with these seeds and grow up nice buds.
2020-07-11 Updated with yesterday's photos. Changed nutrients today, stuck with 1600 EC for plant 01 and went back down to 1400 for plant 02.

Чем ближе к харву тем она медленнее, сильных изменений не наблюдаю за эту неделю, но и положительных что то тоже, трихомы не становятся янтарными, ладно потерплю ещё немного может всё таки настанет тот самый момент)

19.1.25:
I have watered all plants with 300ml of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3, with 1/3 jar of black strap molasses with Ecothrive Biosys-1g.
I am looking to increase the sugars for microbial life and plant processes.
It'll also add some extra Calcium, Magnesium and trace elements.
I also, watered all plants with Bloom nutrients.
Using dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients: (ml/l) ;-
♡ 2ml Cal-Mag
♡ 2ml Ecothrive Flourish
♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster
♡ 2ml Biobizz Bloom
♡ 2ml Biobizz Top Max
♡ 1g of Ecothrive Biosys
I watered around 1-3 litres per plant. Depending on size and requirements.
I'm still spilling water containing the nutrient solution. 🙄
I am using this to rub into the leaves. I think a nice foliar massage won't do any harm, make the most of the situation.
The plants have become very hungry and thirsty. Increased the water by double.
I ran out of my TNC cal-mag. I decided to order the Xpert Nutrients brand, as I like their products. It isn't organic as far as I can tell, but I don't think it matters too much to me, to be honest.
I also want to top dress this week, so I bought some Green Leaf PK bud Booster dry amendment from Amazon, too.
I'll mix it with canna coco, perlite, worm castings, and Ecothrive Life Cycle.
24.1.25:
I went ahead and top dressed all the plants with 4.5 gallons of my supersoil custom mix.
This consists of the following substrate and dry amendments:
♡ 60% Canna coco
♡ 20% Worm castings
♡ 15 % Perlite
The remaining 5% consists of the following dry amendments;-
♡ 10g Ecothrive Biosys
♡ 1 Tsp RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules
♡ 3 Tsp Vitalink Bat guano
♡ 4 Tsp Diatomaceous earth
♡ 8 Tsp Ground Cinnamon
♡ 10g Green Leaf Bud Booster PK booster.
♡ 3 Tsp Ecothrive Life Cycle.
•Worm castings for some all round nutrition.
•Cinnamon for mildew and bug repellent.
•Canna coco base substrate.
•Perlite for adding oxygen to the root and soil system.
•Green Leaf Bud Booster PK Booster for blooming. Building strong big buds.
•Vitalink bat guano again for Bloom.
•RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules, to boost beneficial microbes.
•Ecothrive Life Cycle for lots of great benefits.
•Diatomaceous earth for Silica.
•Ecothrive Biosys, for an extra microbial boost.
Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Plant packing on the weight, trichomes starting to form. Some fan leaves have dried up and fallen off, bringing new light to the bud sites!
Little splash of big bud added, to try keep the weight on.

The plant on the right got chopped down the hairs were 90% dark brown while left was fully white last week when it got taken down it had only one day flush. This plant I will flush for a week and see which is better. It has decent size buds all the way to the bottom but this one growing still doesn't have as many crystals as the harvested plant which was definitely cut down way to early 😕 shame it must have forced to finish early from shock when I snapped a main branch clean off. This plant I will flush with plain filtered water for 7 days and even if it doesn't have as much crystals as the other plant, the bud size is 2x-3x the size of the plant that was cut down last week so I hope they will look a lot better size wise after they shrink when they are cut down and dried. I have also noticed some medium sized fan leads turning from green into a beautiful dark purple colour over the last 2-3 days slowly and it's spreading to other leaves the buds on this plant are also purple bits it's hard to see on here but looking sweet so far I have uploaded pic of the frost one which has been drying for a week now

Overall this week was very steady! They drank a lot, between Sat-Sat I had to fill res twice. I think my res is 50L, so they went thru 100 L (or so) in a week. Or about 2L per plant per day!
Probably on Tuesday, I might defoliate again. It's a pretty solid sea of green, but there is a lot below canopy and these are Autoflowers, So I will promote the Larf growth, to use in edibles etc.
Generally I try to avoid defoliating into flower, but desperate times! Haha
The interesting thing is, when I look at my week to week data, I can see as the canopy thickened, the overall temperature of the Tent went down, then stabilized at about 24c.
So to me, that indicates the canopy is absorbing much more energy than previously (avg was 27.5c). So what use to raise the tent by 3c, is now going right into the Plants.
I'm very hopeful about this run! :)

A couple days before chopping.
Spotted budrot at 2 spots in the New 2. So almost time
to cut before it get worse.
The rest is doing fine, New 1 and Strawberry are gonna be the first ones to get chopped together,branches are under load and some are bending down

Probably need to do some cleanup here soon. She's getting very bushy but I'm maintaining a level canopy, the outside shoots are catching up to the centers and I will let her grow about 6-8", clean up the bottom and flip to flower, maybe 2 to 3 weeks left in veg
1/1/23 - cleaned her up a lot, took out lots of shoots that will never see the top light and spread out the canopy. Very square shape.

Hallo Ihr lieben 💚
Woche 2. hat bekommen, die Damen wurden in Ihre 20l Töpfe umgezogen und haben inzwischen wieder Fuß gefasst.
Bald werden die kleinen getoppt und dann wird es auch endlich wieder etwas spannender.
Ich finde die ersten Wochen vergehen immer sehr langsam.
Genießt das tolle Wetter und habt einen guten Start ins Wochenende. ☀️

previous watering was fed with liquid nutrients, my temperatures are not low so the nutrients come slowly with some intervals giving only water without much runoff occurring a mixture of soil and mycorrhizae for better performance i know i needed calcium and magnesium good the problem was money, i will continue with epsom salt the option i have direct sulfur in the soil has helped me hear a visible change.
water ph 6.2 solution temperature 20 ° - 0.50 g of great white mycorrhiza 2 days earlier were sprayed with water without ppm via leaves - lights off to serve as a cooling shower in the heat is great for stomata .
Simple led panel added as main light source 260watts being divided to 3 plants in the fullspectro tent model, did not get much difference in temperatures compared to HPS, is more the same spectro ratio and UV to reach more directly in the trichomes and terpenes.
Large leaves, like a true sativa even if they are long, go in equally straight and thin shape, trichomes with glands larger than their sister, but this one in front really does not hear physical stress from something just high temperature training, but are very resistant To this, I imagine later on taking this same genetics at favorable temperatures and hydro. A strong smell that I will have to turn to buy a filter, I can not with curious and malicious neighbors need to really contain the smell.
