Week 2 of flower 👍🏾

So, with these interesting times and what is becoming a fast evolving global catastrophe. I, myself, along with the rest of you ( I hope ) can take some solace in looking after our gardens, to have some peace away from the news, to give our ladies the best care we are able to provide 🌱 If you ever needed any vindication or validation as to why growing your own is best. More than half the world currently in lockdown, and with MJ in short supply, our actions speak for themselves! Anyway, back to this diary. I done a lot of work on the room, invested a lot and tried to make everything as automated as possible. Everything runs on smart plugs, the hydroponic system is DIY and is RDWC which is cooled with a Hailea 150a. 6 plants is what I am going for this time, with a shorter veg length compared to the last grow. I prefer to wait until they show their sex, but if they don’t by week 5, I plan on flipping anyway all being well. I am using 730nm LED’s that come on 15 mins before lights on, turn off during lights on, and then they come back on when lights go out, and stay on for 15 mins. This should enable me to run 13/11 during flower with little risk. I am also going to add a UVB fixture to my custom rig which will only be used during the final 2 weeks of flower. I have 3 Alibaba lights attached to a custom rig, they really are awesome lights. I tested the room out with an Apogee SQ-520 par meter (PAR map in pics). I have dimmed them down, so PAR is around 500 across the whole canopy, this will be increased to 1000 once they’re flipped. I vent from my house, to the room and then outside, this increases the CO2 in the room, which I think helped the yields on the last grow, generally CO2 hovers between 470 and 700 PPM. My ladies look a little sick, but tbh, I struggle starting out in Rockwool, and things usually correct themselves within a couple weeks. With the quarantine I have struggled to pick up a humidifier that is capable of maintaining that room, so it has been all over the place since the start. I have opted to go with Royal Gorilla this cycle, let’s see if it’s as potent as RQS says that it is! Good luck all and take care...

Emocionado con el rápido crecimiento, en el día 4 la tuve que transplantar y le hice su primer riego con una mínima porción de sus nutrientes 💚 ya veremos como esta variedad reacciona a todo el amor y cuidados que le doy

Week 6 update: What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished. All in all Happy Growing.

Sorry guys been lagging on posting because got a lot other stuff going on n I figured this plant would’ve been chopped by now but I must say she’s been filling out quite nicely..I lowered the light hours to try n see if thatll he’ll ripen her a bit faster as I’m looking to replace her with another plant

It was a good, busy week. The clones are down, dry, and now jarred. Total weight from them was 5oz. I didn't think I was going to get more than 2oz because I didn't put much effort into them. However they all turned out pretty solid for growing led and soil 😎 The mothers come down in 9 days and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how dense those will be! I'm pretty sure a certain someone is going to be donating to some polar bears 😏 because I'm damn sure getting more than 2.5oz per plant 😎 That's about it for now, happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️

Ya esta en su tercera semana de floracio y las flores ya se empezaron a formar , ha crecido muy rapido con una buena estrucctura y aroma muy dulce

Hola Mista Marlboro 🦉 Tobaccos start to bloom this week so it's time to cut them out. Or snap. Left flowers for biggest plant so we see also how it produces seeds. Same destiny for sucker leaf's. Watering oldest last time with nutrients. Test crop is done. Just oldest and lowest leaf's from shadow that won't produce anything anyways. Hanging on my wood shed now. Excited 😆 With smokey Hopes 🚬

Update of rdwc goodiez 2

28.07.23-день тренировок для начала сделал агрессивную деволиацию , затем без труда растянул все ветки по периметру . Теперь новые побеги получают свет и воздух ! После тренировок принято решение поднять ппм до 750-800 и пш 5.9—выход ппм 700-670 , пш 5.6. Наблюдаем дальше , почтение очень красивое и пушистое . 02.08.23-Сделал сильную дефолиацию , растение очень компактное с небольшими листьями и выглядит как зеленей шар ) Все колы находятся на одном расстоянии . Честно говоря это мой любимый цветок 🌹 увеличил ппм до 900 и дал больше места для растяжки ! В планах дать еще 4 недели вегетации и сделать из нее монстра )

The seeds have germinated after around 59 hours to be exact very strongly I started to germinate the seeds on January 12th however it was 00:00 Am so it's almost like saying January 13th, the 2 out of 2 seeds have germinated very well without any problem! Quick germination, let's go for it! Stay tuned, this is a strain I love for her absolutely amazing terp profile!! Don't miss it👨‍🌾💚🔝♥️💛

Smells like Rubber bands coated in a berry sugar or berry sryup very interesting on the nose! Harvested day 67 ish maybe a couple more hard ot tell outdoor Split the harvest into drying buds and some to made into fresh frozen hash. i can dry weigh the fresh frozen buds and put that weight in the wet section and i will put the to smoke buds in the dry weight section so total between the two will be the whole plant Drying was a big mishap got condensation around day 10 of drying and it caused some mold 🤦‍♂️ right around the time i was going to cure! Found a peroxide soak that ill post butt it seemed to take off all the mold without affecting tricomb heads! Had to re dry for another week afterward i feel like the re dry maybe messed with the terps because it definitely never got the smell back like i thought but who knows slmost 3 weeks into cure coukd get better but doubt it

Two flower on top it going to die ,why I don't know

Aug 9: Now done three weeks of flowering for Tropicana Cookies EV. She is the youngest plant but also the tallest and looking quite happy. Got the UV led lights from AC Infinity going for the first time. Used these last year and they seem to work. UV lights stimulates trichome production and makes up for weak sunlight this far north. Aug 12: has stretched again but the bud sites are filling nicely. Pistils have started to turn pink. This plant is looking very happy and will likely be a big producer. Added another top dressing of malted barley and Power Bloom. It has been about two weeks at least since the last round, and this will be the final round. Stopped using molasses about two weeks ago. Great for growing but I don’t want to be smoking sugar. Use during veg stage but only 2-3 weeks into flowering.

Poly Harvest 622g lost about 3g to bud rot as one bud was about to go south due to all the wet assed weather lately. good thing we got her today. Easy trim Wow did winter ever get here fast. Snow this weekend so everything is chopped. Busy busy day Not sure how to amend the harvest to include Zona - 445 grams wet but do what I can She did well and in the end was healthier than Poly. Very slight point of bud rot (cold and wet) perhaps one gram affected. Will update dry weight as I may BTW the dog in the video is named Mater and he loves cannabis, he hangs around when I harvest and eats any leaves I discard. No hes a good dog leaves the plants themselves alone :) Zona 167 grams dry I am good with that on a plant almost cut down lost a few grams to bud rot nothing remarkable given the weather

She’s looking much much happier in flowering! I’m not sure how but I’ve grown her bigger than she is rated for maximum height. The end of this week she was 60” or 152cm tall, her rated maximum height was 39” or 100cm so I’m a good 50% taller than rated!!

Hey now, hope everyone is enjoying their weekend....Good week for the Cream Mandarine Auto, she is still eating like crazy, I did switch her to the the ripening nutes, and will be switching to straight H20 here in the the next week or so based on what her triches look like under my miscroscope...her buds are definitely getting tight and sticky, and I had to provide support for 4 colas so far that were sagging towards the floor as the buds swelled up...Mars Hydro also sent me a tent to test out, it is a 4x4 main compartment, and also two smaller sections which are 4x2 and 4x6, which I will use the smaller one for seedings, and the larger one for drying flower. I will absolutely be running another Cream Mandarine Auto, she has been great, and she absolutely reaks every time I open the tent. I had her out last night for about an hour while I set up the new tent and she literally made my whole house stink. Very happy withe these genetics so far, I think she will be ready in 7-12 days but we will see.... I hope everyone enjoys the rest of your weekend, be safe and blaze on!

She looks amazing. I think she could handle few days more however I’m having some issues in my place so I chopped today on day 98 from this run I think now it will yield more than the others
