Day 22 First day of the 4th week of veg and time to start training. Today I lightly defoliated the girls for the first time. I simply removed the first node from each plant and the second node on the left plant. I watered the plants with 2 liters of water (pH 6.4) right after pruning to minimize any shock. I'll give them a couple of days and then I'll top the right girl for sure but I'll see about the left one considering how much smaller she is. Last night I spotted one single fungus gnat in the tent. The first one I've seen so maybe the tomatoes did bring in something after all. I inspected the girls for any other infestation but I couldn't spot anything. I put up a couple of small sticky traps to check if the gnats are there and if they are, then out with the nematodes. I've had great success with nemos in the past so they are my go-to when it comes to fungus gnats. Day 23 So... I fucked up yesterday. I moved around some of the power plugs and forgot to start the extractor fan again after I was done. DOH! I noticed my mistake as soon as opened the tent today and was hit by a wall of heat and humidity. It felt like stepping into a jungle, hot and wet. I guess I need to regularly check the App which monitors my temps and RH. Gotten a bit lazy about it so yeah, that's when fuckups happen. After all, what is the point of having a remote monitoring system if you don't monitor it? As for the plants they are doing their thing. Not much to report. I found one gnat stuck to the left sticky trap. Hardly a huge problem at the moment but need to stay on top of it. I am hoping that the weather improves soon so I can move out the tomatoes and then hit the plants with nematodes. Day 24 Today was a busy day in the tent. I started with cutting back the cover crops as they were getting a bit unruly. I then topped and did some low-stress training to the right girl but am holding off a few days for the left one as she is a bit smaller. My girlfriend suggested that I'd save the top and try to turn it into a clone. I never considered it as I don't have any space really for a third plant but hey, since it was her idea I'll give it a go. This is the first time I ever try to clone so I'm kinda clueless and am just winging it as I go along. I'm not too worried though as this is more an experiment in seeing if I can turn the top into a clone with the means I have at hand. I cut some aloe vera and put the top directly into it. I then blended the aloe with some water in my mixer and now the top is sitting in that aloe tea. I have no idea what to plant the top in next. Maybe some peat moss (as I have some) and continue feeding it aloe tea until root appears...?  It's all an experiment. lol For the low-stress training, I used some wire that I gently put around each branch and then attached the wire to a binder clip that is clipped onto the edge of the fabric pots. I also moved out some tomatoes out of the tent but swapped in some Bishop's Crown and Saltillo hot peppers instead. Finally, I watered everything with nematodes as I today found another four gnats stuck to the right sticky trap. Still, not a huge problem, and I was planning on waiting until the tomatoes and peppers are out of the tent but better to be proactive and nip the problem in the bud than letting it fester. I used 10 million Steinernema feltiae nematodes and I know that 10 million is maybe overkilling it but hey, as they said in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing. Besides, I already had those nemos at hand. I gave each girl around 2.5 liters of water (ph 6.7). Day 25 Alright, so I almost died in a heart attack today as I opened my tent and saw several spots of white residue on the leaves - "Fuuuuuuuuu... Did I get Powdery Mildew now after that one day of high humidity?!" After checking more thoroughly it certainly didn't look like PM and then it finally dawned on me. It was simply dried nematodes as I yesterday had spilled a bit of water on a few leaves. Phew! Other than that, not much to report. The right plant looks strong after topping and I re-tightened a couple of the LST wires. The left plant is coming along nicely so I will top her in a couple of days I think. The top is chilling in a glass of aloe vera tea and later today I will put it in a peat tab which will go under a humidity dome. Day 26 Pretty uneventful as all I really did was to water the girls, each got about 2 liters of ph 6.5 water. The right girl is bouncing back strong after topping and the top itself is doing pretty ok, nestled between the girls, in a propagation tray at the back of the tent. It's quite cramped in my small tray but hey, that's all I can fit so let's see if it works out anyway. I also prepared some fresh aloe vera tea by blending an aloe very filet with a bit of water and then fed the tea to the top. I haven’t seen any more gnats, not flying around nor in the sticky traps so let’s hope that they are gone. Day 27 Nothing too exciting today. I gave the top a little more aloe tea, cut back the cover crop a bit to increase air circulation around the plants, and tweaked the LST wires a bit. That's it. Day 28 Today it was time to top and train the left girl. I also put this top in aloe tea together with the other top in the propagation tray. I figured that I might as well try to clone this one as well even though I have NO clue what to do with them in case cloning is successful. lol. I also started brewing some compost tea using the same ingredients as last time (worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal) but as I'm planning to foliar feed this round I put all the ingredients in a large teabag. Helps to avoid clogging up the spray nozzle. I was hoping to put off watering until tomorrow as they are getting tea then but the girls were really thirsty so I gave each around 2 liters of ph 6.2 water. Oh, I saw another 3 gnats stuck to the right sticky trap so obviously, there are some still around but that isn't unexpected as the nematodes don't help against already adult gnats. In any case, the population seems small considering how few have been stuck to the traps and I haven't seen any flying around.

So I had a little less nutrient last week then i needed. Def a calcium deficiency. I think it's clearing up but this plant has spot all over it. I changed the water, gave it the right amount of nutrients and a little exra hydrated lime for calcium. Hydro is hard. I hoping It's not sick. I hope It doesn't get the other plants sick. Just a few weeks left.

So, I'm in need of some Indica in my stash 😂 A seed was planted straight into a 20 litre airpot with compost and watered, and waited. Took her a couple of days to break ground but she's made it. She will be growing during my upcoming photoperiod grow, she may well be on 12/12 light at the end. I know it's not good for an auto but I have no other way of growing her. 3rd time growing Fastbuds Blackberry. I don't know if you guys want me to do this diary or not??

🌿 RS11 "C" - Crazy Development and Massive Swell! 🌳🔥 What is up, GrowDiaries fam? We are back with the RS11 "C" out on the Berlin balcony, and her development over the last week has been absolutely crazy! While all the outdoor girls flipped together, this specific plant is going into overdrive right now. 📈 The Details / Progress Report: Explosive Swell: The bud development has gone into overdrive, with the colas stacking heavily and swelling significantly along the branches. The sugar leaves are getting coated in a dense layer of frosty trichomes as she pushes through this late stage of flower. Heavy Autumn Fade: She is finally showing that beautiful, dramatic autumn fade. The large fan leaves are rapidly turning bright yellow as she redirects all her stored nitrogen and energy straight into flower production. Balcony Support: Her massive, wide structure is getting heavy, but the blue metal frame is doing its job perfectly to keep her upright. You can also still see the red LST clips actively holding the inner branches in place to maintain her open canopy. 💧 Next Steps: With this crazy amount of development, she is demanding a lot of energy. I will keep her bloom nutrients high and monitor the trichomes closely. Because of the rapid swelling and the sheer density of these colas, I will be stripping away the dead yellow fan leaves daily to ensure the airflow remains optimal and prevents any moisture from getting trapped. 👇 Question for the community: When you have a plant that suddenly accelerates its bud development late in flower compared to its siblings, do you adjust its feed to push it even harder, or keep it on the same schedule as the rest? Let me know your thoughts in the comments! She is an absolute beast right now! Let's keep it growing! 🌱💨

The Quebec Blues are starting to develop more now during flowering I’ll start feeding Diablo nutrients cal mag and monster frost every feeding during flowering. These plants have been growing well and just need defoliations for airflow and flowering sites. I’ve been following diablos feeding calculator 3x a week, and the plants seem to be growing well. Ph is balanced each feeding. I’ll start documenting weekly flower development starting the next week.

Last week of flowering. Starting straight water in 3 days. Girls should have about 4 days of water before chop. Looking yummy! Can't wait to harvest!

Such a lovely plant. Very satisfying to grow. She smells very fruity with a little sour. Checked her trichomes under the microscope and I’m still seeing about 25% clear with some amber and the rest milky. She’s slowing down her metabolism now, not drinking as much. Putting out fewer new pistils. We’re in the home stretch, no idea if that is 2 weeks or 4, but based on the slowing of her metabolism. I’d say she’ll be done within 3 weeks. If you’re watching my video, that’s vintage 1988, Wild Wild West, by The Escape Club (a UK band). The song topped the US charts in November of 88. The band never topped the UK charts.

Mimozz and Coco Fresh have been cut and are now in a drying tent at 18°C and 55% humidity. Kings Kush and Blue Dream still need about a week to finish ripening.

Well I missed a week was going to shut down this grow as the plants were not doing anything all the deformed leaves were making it so the plant was using all its energy on fixing the deformed leaves so slowly I pulled off all the deformed leaves witch took me 2 weeks and there is still a few left now . Finally they seem to be growing again after almost 3 weeks of being stunted. Had plans of flowering them next week but there way 2 small so I will have wait probably 3 extra weeks . This grow is a good grow to show people what not to do. Will do an overview of the whole grow at the end of flower saying what I would do differently next time so these problems don't happen again . Oh yah and when I flushed the plants I did not flush them good enough and they were still being over feed for for 2 weeks .

Okay now this has been ridiculous. SJ re-affirmed my choice as stability anchor, in case my Haze experiments go wrong (they kinda did*) - and she delivered big time 😵 *they did, with a funny and unbelievable twist: I am the proud owner of two seeds, this one likely is " Mephisto OSMH × 42FB SourJealousy — F1 Fem Auto (rodel) Her flower is extremely dense, which comes with a challenge for spotting bud rot. So far I have not found any bud-rot during hand-trimming, but given her structure and my extended drying, I am not too concerned with finding a spot or two. Here's my logs, excuse the dump: ---- 42 Fast Buds : Sour Jealousy #2 State: Age: 73 days | Life: Content & relaxed throughout all phases. Very healthy & confident representation throughout. Trichomes: ~10% amber | Pistils: Slow, gradual fade towards 80% brown (indica representation; full white pistils possible at correct harvest time) Flower Development: Very evenly matured and ripe flower with light senescence fade (-) deeper into sub-canopy. Larf: ~1.5% Fully matured/ripened to freshly maturing/ripening ratio: 2.6:1, or 72% : 28% Hand-trimming: 6h 46/h Drying: Extended low VPD drying (12d) with increased botrytis risk. Temporary humidity stabilization → grove bags nested in RH container. Flower State: 62% RH on all but top main colas (still burping). Monoterpenes noticeably degraded (30%+ perception) Pharmaceutical Profile: Under my (drying) conditions: very long lasting, mellow. Sedative-leaning but daytime-profile with strong, pleasant body aura / high. Strong focus / immersion, some tendency to wander off. Relaxed, focused working / occupation. Creates ""bubble"" reducing distractions, without inducing artificial happiness other than from (largely) increased comfort. Reduced motorical drive slightly debilitating but never couch-locking. High THC contents (apparent during use) create ceiling for daytime profile. Smell: sweet forward, reminiscent of sweet almond profiles, creamy elements. On rupture: deep herbal profile with surprising mint and earthy notes (background); + a ""vibrant, lively spin"" on those herbs as a warm, almost fennel-like umami / wet nest inside profile (only on well preserved flower). Taste: no good data (combusted with tobacco)

🍋🍇 Air Lemon x Shishkaberry Anfang Woche 11 🍇🍋 Die beiden Outdoor Damen legen weiterhin ordentlich an Größe zu und entwickeln sich genau so, wie ich es mir erhofft hatte. Nach den kleineren Rückschlägen am Anfang haben sie sich an ihrem Standort unglaublich gut erholt. Ehrlich gesagt habe ich damit schon gerechnet, denn die Position ist für die beiden nahezu perfekt. Sie bekommen dort ideale Bedingungen und danken es mit kräftigem Wachstum. Mittlerweile haben die Pflanzen fast das Dach erreicht. Nach der starken Hitzewelle mit Temperaturen von über 40 °C und den anschließenden Gewittern werde ich ihnen noch ungefähr eine Woche Zeit geben, damit sie sich komplett davon erholen können. Danach kommt das Dach weg, damit sie auch von oben die volle Sonne abbekommen und ihr Potenzial weiter ausschöpfen können. Gemessen habe ich sie bisher noch nicht, aber ich schätze, dass beide inzwischen knapp an der 1,70 Meter-Marke angekommen sind. Ich bin mir ziemlich sicher, dass wir die 2 Meter Marke noch überschreiten werden, wenn das Wetter weiterhin mitspielt. Es ist wirklich beeindruckend, was diese extremen Temperaturen mit dem Wachstum machen können. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit haben die Pflanzen einige Zentimeter zugelegt und zeigen einen richtig kräftigen Wuchs. Der Geruch hält sich aktuell noch sehr in Grenzen, was vor allem am guten Durchzug an ihrem Standort liegt. Bisher ist nur ein leichter Duft wahrnehmbar, obwohl die Pflanzen bereits eine ordentliche Größe erreicht haben. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich die nächsten Wochen entwickeln und freue mich darauf, euch weiter auf diesem Outdoor Run mitzunehmen. Vielen Dank fürs Lesen und natürlich auch ein großes Dankeschön an Green House Seeds für die Promo-Seeds zu diesem Run! 💚 Happy Growing Growmies! 🌱💚
