Flower - Week 4 (Days 22-28) Day 22 (Jan 22) I did a reservoir change at 00:30. Fresh numbers: pH 5.81, EC 1588. It felt like a clean reset after all the EC creep and the general “why are the numbers doing this?” vibe. Plant looked strong. No drama in the canopy. Buds forming, everything looked like it was on track. I was honestly feeling pretty good about it. Day 23 (Jan 23) At 01:15 I topped off with about 2½ L pH’d water and landed at EC 1566, pH 5.79. Same session: I did a lot of work - heavy LST in the trellis, supercropped one branch, and pulled a few big fan leaves to open light to lower bud sites. The plant took it like it was nothing. That’s been the story: I mess with her, she just keeps growing and throwing bud sites. Great… but it also means I’m still running out of vertical space. Day 24 (Jan 24) At 01:00 I measured EC 1668, pH 6.0 and did massive LST work again. Also took a picture of the root ball and it looked amazing - clean white, crisp, and huge. That was a relief, because when the canopy is getting dense and the tent is getting tight, it’s nice to know the foundation is bulletproof. I also had to move the oscillating fan because there’s basically no room above canopy anymore. I ended up hanging it upside down under the canopy (not ideal), and I even saw a tiny bit of condensation forming between leaves higher up. That made my stomach drop a bit, because I can’t really “create more air” out of thin air in a packed tent. Day 25 (Jan 25) Around 01:00 I got an EC reading 2000+ that didn’t make sense to me. Plant still looked fine, so I didn’t want to panic-correct based on a single number. But mentally it was annoying: I can handle a plant problem, but I hate “do I even trust the data?” problems. I was still doing LST, but I stopped supercropping because I don’t want to stack stress and end up stunting her - especially with my harvest timeline in the back of my head. It finally seems to have ended the stretch. Good! Day 26 (Jan 26) At lights on (around 00:15) I finally saw it: discoloration on upper fan leaves (right side). It reminded me of the early grow issues. My working theory was that I’d been pouring concentrated low-pH top-off water on the same side, basically creating a micro-zone and stressing one part of the root system. Later I also had that “oh fuck” moment where I noticed the airline to the air stone had disconnected - no idea how long, but likely when I stirred. Luckily roots still looked fine and the plant didn’t look like it had crashed, so I think I dodged a real disaster there. Still… not the kind of surprise you want in DWC. Day 27 (Jan 27) At lights on (00:30) it was a total mess. The upper canopy looked wrecked fast - most top leaves damaged, necrotic spotting, and the tent smelled like wet hay. That’s the kind of smell that instantly makes your brain go to worst-case scenarios. I drained the reservoir and the numbers were completely wack: EC ~3000, pH 6.8. That explained everything. I did a full res change immediately and replaced it with a sane mix: EC 1622, pH 5.63. And honestly, I don’t know if this happened because I switched to a new brand of pH down and screwed up somewhere, or if it’s just the combination of high uptake + my top-off method + small res volume catching up with me. But the timing feels… suspicious. Day 28 (Jan 28) At lights on (around 00:15) the damage hadn’t spread further. The canopy still looks ugly - lots of necrotic patches on leaves - but the plant itself doesn’t look like it’s dying. Buds look largely unaffected, which is a huge relief. I removed the worst leaves, but I’m trying not to go crazy stripping her. The vibe right now is: she took a hard hit, I corrected it as fast as I could, and now the only smart move is stability. No more hero moves. Just let her recover and keep building flowers.

_____📅 Week 15 | 8nd week flower | 📅 Day 113 - 120 | 03.05 - 09.05 ______ 03.05 | Day 105 🌞 🔸Okay...we are getting close to the finish line...The buds have swollen a bit in the last week...They are not the biggest, but they look and smell like the biggest...Trichomes are also looking quite good and are plentiful (I still have to learn something with the microscope hehe) but it is enough to get an overview... 🔸It has been quite warm in the tent for the last 3 days, sometimes up to 29° - not ideal, but I don't have air conditioning either. 🔸I only add water with Cannazym and Bloom Booster, so EC=0, as my water is 0.5, so my nutrient solution for the last week has 0.5 EC and 5.6 pH. She still drinks about 1 liter a day, but it has become less. So the nutrients are steadily decreasing. 🔸I think I will harvest them in the course of the week...that fits quite well as the temperatures are going down again. I'm looking forward to giving the others more space and light. _____________________________________________________________________ 🌡️🔆= 25-26° 🌡️🌜= 19-20° 💨 Hum. = 55% 🔦 PPFD = 800-900 umol 12/12 🔦⌚DLI = ~35 ___________________________________________________________________ Equipment: Flower 💡2 x 200 Watt Cosmos LED 💡2 x Glow80 Spider-Farmer (4x40Watt) 💡1 x SF-600 Spider-Farmer ⛺120 x 120 x 200 Tent (4 x 4 x 8) 🍯 18-20 liter Bucktes

This girl already has a sweet smell without flowers I’m thinking this is one of my new favorite strain to grow I need to buy some more seeds. She grows very vigorous also.

Light is at its maximum height and could do with being raised another inch or so, going to try and tie the reflector directly to the top of the tent. Stretched more than anticipated lol. Slight tip burn so backed off the nitrogen and added the pk, I think they are a touch too dark green but will rectify during this week. Surprising considering the EC is only 1.4

Cherry Cola's Grand Flourish in the Floral Symphony Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 4 has unfurled its petals in the mesmerizing floral journey of our beloved Cherry Cola Auto. The tent is now a stage for a grand botanical opera, and our green queen stands as a testament to the wonders of cultivation. Let's dive into the details of this flourishing spectacle! As we venture deeper into Week 4, the floral elegance of Cherry Cola Auto takes center stage. What was once a lush bush has evolved into a breathtaking beauty, a true testament to the success of our horticultural endeavors. The topping technique and the release from training supports have paved the way for a regal display of colas and buds. The decision to set our Cherry Cola free from the constraints of training supports continues to be a triumph. The tent is now a realm of bushy brilliance, and our green queen stands tall, a majestic presence commanding attention. It's a living masterpiece in perpetual motion. The echoes of our topping tales from previous weeks resonate in the structure of Cherry Cola's colas. Each topped branch has evolved into a flourishing bud-laden entity, contributing to the overall grandeur of our green canvas. The decision to embark on this topping journey has truly paid off. Our nutrient symphony, now joined by the magical touch of Potassium (K), continues to fuel the botanical brilliance. P-Boost and Topbooster, with their orchestration of phosphorus, organic grace, and now potassium magic, create a harmonious dance of blooming processes. The buds are becoming robust, laden with fibers, resins, and sugars, promising a top-tier end product. Every day, the visual majesty of Cherry Cola unfolds with new growth, showcasing the resilience and vitality she possesses. It's more than a plant; it's a living testament to the artistry of cultivation. As we conclude Week 4, Cherry Cola Auto stands as a botanical opera in full swing. The tent is alive with the grand flourish of a floral symphony. Stay tuned, fellow enthusiasts, as we eagerly await the next thrilling act in the Cherry Cola Chronicles!

Week 4 the right plant shows a deficiency... no idea what that is. the light from the lamp was too strong at first but it shouldn't be... I don't know - I'll keep an eye on it... I think the left plant looks good... growing splendidly - sativa genes are showing... the right plant is growing more bushy 👉Defoliation and exposing the shoots👈 I removed all the leaves that were or would soon be covered with scissors ✂️ - I started in the middle to give the plant more air flow

📋Summary of previous week During week 5 of vegetation, both R01 and R03 showed solid development, especially R03. A training session was done to open them up and improve branch distribution. R01 has started showing signs of pre-flowering, while R03, being five days younger, hasn’t yet. R02, unfortunately, suffered another setback: during an LST adjustment, its main stem snapped. It was carefully taped and stabilized, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that it won’t be able to keep up with the others. This week, two watering sessions were done: one with 1.2L of water, 1.5ml of Terra Vega, and 1ml of Mycochum per plant, and another with 1L of water and 1ml of Terra Vega. The light intensity was increased to 85%, and the lights were raised a bit higher to encourage more stretching before flowering begins ------------------------------------------------------------- 6️⃣Week flower : 24/03 - 31/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 85cm ⚡ Dimming: 85% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 67% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #24/03/2025 I decided to make another LST adjustment and I'm starting to consider removing R02 from the tent and placing her on the balcony, allowing more space for R01 and R03, which are now practically filling up the tent on their own. As for the SCROG net, I’ve decided not to use it and will stick with LST until the end. The main reasons are : -I’ve already managed to open up the plants well with LST - R01 is already showing signs of flowering -I’ll be able to handle the plants more freely throughout the contest .. and the main reason , I messed up the measurements for my frame and now need to figure out a way to extend the support pipes a few centimeters to make it fit properly! 😅 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #26/03/2025 Applied a bit more LST today and decided to give them one last watering with Bactomatik from Agrobacterias, but at a lower dose , just 2g in 3L of water, with one drop of SuperVit to give a final boost of nitrogen, beneficial bacteria, vitamins, and amino acids. I also sprinkled a bit of Epsom salt from THC on the surface for magnesium, and some Basalt Rock from EcoForce, which contains 45% silica, to further strengthen the ladies ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 30/03/2025 Watered today with 1.5L per plant, adding 1ml of Terra Vega by Canna and 1ml of Alga Bloom from Plagron. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 31/03/2025 Had to make another LST adjustment on R03 — this girl is definitely keeping me busy! I’m completely out of space in the tent, so from now on the only direction left for her to grow is up!💚 I also did a bit of defoliation — something I don’t usually do with autoflowers, but they really needed it. Nothing major, just a few lower leaves and some that were blocking light from reaching the lower branches. Nothing too crazy!!

This week we are seeing the girls starting to flower, mixed in a gaia green topdress and chopped it up into the sand, then adding another layer. The sand really does a number on the fungas gnats. Going to do some lollipopping and lots of defolation. Trying to pick and chose which colas to bring to the end. I cant wait to see what this looks like when its filled with bud. After I train tonight its going to be hands off completely besides watering.

This week has been all about the trichomes! They haven't really started to frost up to this point but I've just been in the tent to get some photos any my god are they sticky! The size and density of the buds on the shorter plant is beyond belief. The scrog net has worked incredibly well creating a thick even canopy. I recommend this technique to any grower including newbies like myself. Final week of full strength nutes. As of next week I'm expecting they will start to fade out a bit. I still think they could mabey go another 2 weeks before starting a flush. Time isn't really a problem for me im happy to let them go on as long as they need to reach full potential. Even at this point regardless of the outcome I'll definitely give this strain another grow. Its soooo easy to grow and the size is phenomenal. Stinks of stomped oranges with a hint of pepper. Wow.
