October 1, 2021: Looks like I overwatered a bit last weekend. Still trying to get used to these SIP Pots. I'll probably switch to a SIP system using 5 gallon buckets in the near future. I like the concept of SIP systems so I purchased these pots. But I don't like that these pots still require top dress watering instead of filling the reservoir at the bottom directly. On to the ladies... Fast Buds Blackberry- She jumped in height and started pushing out bud sites this week. She's up to 13" tall, which is kinda short, but she has very tightly packed node spacing and is very bushy. Or she was very bushy before I did some defoliation. I did a light defoliation on her this week mainly so I could see what I was doing when giving her a LST bend. I like to bend plants over at a 45 degree angle I find this allows the lower branches to have better access to the lighting and produce better buds all around. Dinafem Critical+- She grew about an inch this week and is up to 20" now. I did some heavy defoliation on her, I got a little carried away once I got started. She is still showing signs of nutrient burn and is also telling me she was overwatered (see above). However the bud sites look great! So I'm not too worried at this point. I also posted a few pics of the plant I grew outdoors this summer. I just cut her down yesterday. I had to harvest a week or two early because we get very damp and cool falls here in New England. I've been going out every morning to shake the moisture off her and look her over closely. Yesterday I found 2 small patches of bud rot on 2 of the larger colas. I cut the bud rot out first, then chopped her down and brought her in for hang drying. I'll be doing another close inspection once she's dried out to make sure there is no bud rot on the remaining buds. Cya next week!

10/19: This morning when I opened up the closet I wanted to rearrange a little, but they were so packed in, it was almost impossible. So, I went up in the attic and ran some cables and hooked up my other 200w light in the top section. I moved the 4 smallest plants up there and it created a little bit of desperately needed space in the lower section...but I still doubt very seriously that I'll be able to grow all 15 to completion in there..it's only 14.5 square feet of space!😳 10/20: I foliar fed everybody with some SP-90 humic/fulvic acid and kelp me kelp you today. They will probably get fed again tomorrow. Drying out quickly- 10/21: I applied Axiom again today..I sprayed a whole liter of the finest mist I could produce..tops and bottoms of all leaves to the point of runoff. I fixed up a 5 gallon batch of nutes and fed everybody about a 1/4 gallon each. Later the same day.... Several of them look very overwatered..and it's mainly the plants in the back in fabric pots that have seen a grow or two. I think my pots are mainly just too close together for airflow to dry the bottoms out well enough. I put another big fan in the closet and turned off the evap cooler for the night. 10/22: Most of them look better this morning, but a few are still droopy, so I used a stainless steel skewer to poke a thousand little holes in the lower part of all the fabric pots in the garden to try and improve oxygen availability to the roots. I also carefully arranged the garden so that there are gaps between all the pots. I think I'll also space my waterings a little further apart. The topsoil is drying out well enough, but I don't want their roots sitting in muck. 10/23: Several of them are flowering now, and starting to stretch a little bit. I raised the lights about 2 inches today and dialed the ac infinity's high temp trigger up to 88f for a bit to get them to dry out a little faster, so the RH climbed a little higher as well...so I also set the ac infinity's high humidity trigger threshold to 65%. After observing signs of nitrogen toxicity on several of them, I realized that I made another rookie mistake...(where is my head??) The new 5 gallon bucket I'm using to mix a batch of nutes must be about 2 inches shorter than the one I had been using, and I never bothered to calibrate it....which I did today. So, for the past couple of feedings, I've been mixing in enough nutes for 5 gallons, but in only 4 gallons of water!!! I foliar fed them with BoomBoom Spray and gave them about 8oz each of boomerang and cal-mag early in the morning, and by 5pm they all looked happier. I'll give them a little drink of plain water tomorrow, then start them on flowering nutes the next day. 10/24: Several are starting to stretch now...and all but one are flowering. This morning I fed them another little dose of boomerang and cal-mag, and also added some bembe and open sesame to the mix. This afternoon, I foliar fed everybody very thoroughly with some humic/fulvic acid, seaweed extract, yucca extract, and big bloom (for the earthworm castings and minor and trace elements) I repotted the dwarf in a smaller container and gave it to my son. He's a bonsai enthusiast, so it's right up his alley...that's one less plant to deal with! 10/25: This evening I mixed up 5 gallons of pretty much everything except grow big. and gave everybody about 1/4 gallon each. I plan to flush them with sledgehammer on Sunday or Monday and only do foliar feedings like BoomBoom spray and fulvic acid until I resume normal bloom feeding mid-week. Because I've had such a good veg, I'm pretty sure the maximum number of plants I'll be able to fit into the lower section is 13...and maybe only 12. So, that will be my 4 or 5 shortest plants in the area above..in which case, I'll need more light... I think the new UVB light will have to wait until my next grow because I've got so spend a couple hundred bucks on seeds to be able to start another batch right before my current run finishes.😖😞😩😡

Things are going good.... POOL is FULL..... I have transplanted everything in the greenhouse. Some in soil.... I know soil??? Wtf have I lost my mind.... Banner 1,2, and 3 have not shown sex... so we will wait... Slurricane is pretty... but small... her clone's 2 are in soil.. 1 is in perlite, and it is in a circle. I did it for fun because she is a B***H... Haha no strings attached..... We wait on Fire OG, and Foul Mouth both are female... we are waiting for some flowers to arrive. I'm starting to flush Shiskaberry and Blue Gelato 41. Today ... I'm smoking the Gorilla Zkittles.... I am really pleased with taste and high. In the greenhouse flowering right now is 6 strains.... mostly clones... but 8 separate pheno's... fuck I'm even confused... hahaha..everything is labled.... most have dates on them... I will have to try to go back on foul mouth and fire OG to find out when I started flowering them..... shit.... I will know when there done... hahahahahaha I have so much in veg... 25 plants.. 14 strains... so like I said... "The Pool is Full"...... I transplanted all my sprouts... which adds the following: Citrus Farmer .... 3 Critical Kush .... 1 Tahoe Kush .... 2 so far.. 1 may still sprout 🙏 Spliff's Strawberry ....2 CBD Spliff Berry.... 2 Everyone else is fine... I might have missed someone... Oh..... Diesel Fire OG, and Sour Fire Kush are all fine. And the other Spliff's are coming along.... Purple Berry Kush and Moon Walker Kush. Also Strawberry Lemonade..

So far so good with this watermelon zkittles from barneys 😁 no issues and responding well to the topping and lst, I am making 3 litres worth of food for the week and will up it as the plant needs it. I will post more pics and a video later of the room. The purple lemonade and runtz are doing well, they look lost in there big pots 🤣. Pics to come. The orange sherbert are on day 3 of there 2 week flush with molasses and phed water, hopefully there fill out, on the plus side there getting purple on them now 😀. Marshydro tsl2000 is doing a amazing job and is really nice and cool, my hps light use to cook the plants this led is perfect can achieve good temps even cold temps to pull the colour out at the end 😀. The ac infinity with digital controller is a must have and a real game changer for a grower, I love it my mate loves his and trust me it helps, easy to use and set it up outside your grow area, dangle the thermometer cable at canopy hight and your good to go. Day 29 day 2 flower, the watermelon zkittles is starting to start her stretch I think she is going to be a nice plant, iv had no issues in the last 4 weeks and never have with the barneys seed selection.

All the plants are in need of defoliation to increase the airflow and light penetration. Fed both the Fritter Delight plants as they’re looking like they needed it.

Second auto grow in this tent. First try at this strain. The Mars hydro light puts out a true 115W. One plant (plant 2) has a leaf mutation. Soil is Nature's Care by Miracle Gro. I bought a few bags of it and the first two bags had gnats in the soil. The sticky paper took care of them on the last grow but I will keep an eye out for them in this grow.

Couldn't get much slower really could we? Haha I'm not complaining just mentioning is all. She's a beautiful girl, with top heavy buds I'm surprised she's still holding herself up. Gonna make her look like a Christmas tree then harvest her. Time stands still for no plant and I simply need the room for more plants.

Week Thirteen Flower Week 7 - so the high humidity bite me, found some budrot on 3 headbuds of the orange sherbet and the gelato. It was easy to remove and everything else looked fine. I got a second venti and pumped up the exhaust fan. This was the problem, I kept the exhaust to low. Luckily after fixing the problem, the run ended without any more problem. At he time I planned the harvest date and decide to wait one more week to get full 8 weeks of flower. So one more week to report, after that the harvest results will be posted. I want to include some pics of the finished flowers, so this will take another week or so to post. Greetings

She is super resilient and so far she seems to be mold resistant 💪 However I do not wanna push my luck too far and will probably harvest at the end of the week . Thanks once again for reading my diary update & I shall see you next week 👍

The plant structure is short and stocky with a good spread, strong stems with good bud support and dence vegetive growth with selective defoliation needed. The genetics are fairly stable with only 2 pheno's so far, one is pungent skunky smell the other is sweet and fruity smell with a more dence plant structure. The growth is rapid with a fast consistant veg and flower time, Germination time was day 1-3, Vegetation time week 1-4, Pre-flower time week 4-5 , Flower week 5-8, Harvest time week 9.

I can see that she is happy with her new light. She is healthy, growing pistils and stopped reaching up for the light after setting up a stronger one. The smell is getting a bit stronger than before but still reasonable.

5.6oz with a 3 week Veg in a 3 gallon, I'd say it was a good harvest
