3/4/24-Here we are with the ladies goin to their second week. Yay baby flowers 💚 Have a few things going on. I apparently suck at the trellis thing lol. At flower they were all pretty even..I would tuck a few stragglers that got taller under. They’ve went crazy now and I don’t really have anywhere to tuck them other than away from the lights which I don’t wanna do. There was some discoloration on the tips of leaves which I assumed was light or nutrient related, so I dimmed lights a bit and checked the runoff water. Omg. It was wayyyyy too acidic. Like high 4’s low 5. Some leaves also appear to be showing magnesium deficiency.. which I assume is because of the crazy acidity. I’m giving dechlorinated tap water (no normal nutes) without phing it because it’s very alkaline. Hoping it will bring things back up. Oh, I sprinkled epsom salt on the soil before watering. (Magnesium) Really crossing my fingers that I am doing the right things and don’t screw this up! These ladies still look really good to me considering.. but only time will tell. Update: pretty sure I had nitrogen toxicity and too much salt buildup in the soil. In the meantime got what seemed to be magnesium deficiency. I’ve been giving only water with some epsom salt and the girls seems much happier. Hopefully Krisis averted 😂

6th week of flowering. The smell starts to be pretty strong..Small closett with Ac Infinity S6 and still smells😅

After two weeks of stretching, I practice defoliation, removing the nodes below. I switch the lamps to 100%.

Week 8 - Stretch seems pretty much done, cheesy funk smell has arrived too

Apollo is in early flower. I water and fertilize Tuesday, Thursday and water on Saturday or Sunday. Even though the plants started within 2 weeks of each other, Apollo is in flower now. The Vpd for veg is much higher than for flower. So on 10/17, I moved the Friends ( Zkittles, Godzilla Cookies and GrandDaddy Purple) to my 3x3. Stress training done on friends: Zkittles -tie down GDP -topped Gorilla cookies no stress training as this plant is the runt of the friends. Pics of Apollo's friends before moving tents.

Just anyone see anything let me nooooo asap please? Ty

8/28 beautiful plant with nice nodal stacking. not too much stretching. she stretched outwards more than up. love the structure of this plant. this week fed her with 3 tsp 711 grow and 2 tsp 374 bloom. top dressed and still topping with diatomaceous earth as needed.

26.1.25: I have had a mistake 😕 i spilt some Fish Mix as I was experimenting with a syphon from some aquarium tubing I have. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the syphon out! Ugh 😣 However, it is fish emulsion and very thick consistency. Therefore, I was able to scrape it up with 2 of my business cards up off the counter. So added this extra into the next 2 ltr solution I mixed. All plants were watered with at least 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3. Containing the following nutrients;- ♡ 3ml Seachem Seaweed ♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 3ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag ♡ .25g Ecothrive Biosys. ♡ 2.5g of Bicarbonate of Soda as PH UP. Unfortunately I have broken my PH pen too. Accidentally submerged it under water, then the readings went crazy. I'm leaving it to dry by standing it up but I'm most likely going to need a new one, which is extremely annoying 😑 I'm going start implementing the Scrog net probably some point next week if I let the plants that are in flower to just grow up now, as I do believe that I stunted Watermelon 🍉 by using too strenuous LST. Hopefully the plants still are able to grow upwards at this stage during flower for all the Purple Punch P1, P2 and P3. We will soon see! 28.1.25: My PH pen has packed up 😣 I've got to wait to get another. It's super annoying 😑 so I'm just judging by memory how to regulate it. Unfortunately, that's my only choice! I'm also out of the dechlorinator 😕 things are not going very well this week so far 😅 I guess we will have to make do, until I can get replenished. 29.1.25: I removed all the plants, hoovered, and disinfected the tent. There were several accidents when watering, causing some debris and splashes. I decided to just go ahead and get a few other things done. It's crazy how quickly things can become neglected! 😣 So I defoliated moderately on all plants except Gorilla Cookies seedling. I have absolutely dropped the ball on my lighting situation! My light was much further away than I thought! I turned it up to 100% and dropped it down to just under 2 feet away. After I reset the tent, I set up my scrog net. I removed 80% of all LST pegs. I am planning on letting the scrog net take over the training from here. I really want to minimise the risk of mould, so I decided to start using my dehumidifier. It has raised up to 73% RH this week, so it's necessary. Hopefully, I will be able to get my dechlorinator and PH pen soon! That's kind of essential to me. It's been a little bit of a stressful day in the garden, to be honest 😅 30.1.25: So I am expecting the arrival of my new PH pen today, as well as my new bottle of Ecothrive neutralise. It is supposed to measure the TDS and EC in addition to the standard TEMP and PH, which I had previously. Obviously, time will tell if it's any good or not. I realise, much too late now, that my lighting is very insufficient for this many plants. I need double the watts at least, and coverage is very poor. I remembered I had an old LED floor lamp, which was in a corner being unused. I decided to take the stand off, and Zip tied the pole onto the tent pole at the back left corner. I have no idea what the wattage is, and it's quite pathetic 😅 but I mean, I might as well use it, being as I definitely cannot afford more lights! 😣 Next grow, I will probably only grow 2 plants, max 4, and just use larger 7-10 Gallon pots. Being as I ran out of dechlorinator, I only watered some plants properly because I only had enough to make 6 litres. When my pen arrives, I will get everything properly watered. 31.1.25: The leaves of several plants are showing signs of iron deficiency. This is likely due to my PH pen packing up earlier. I now have a new pen. Due to this, I decided to use my Seachem Prime, which I use for my aquariums. As I wanted to get them watered properly, and my Ecothrive Neutralise hasn't arrived yet. I watered each plant with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. I added .25g Ecothrive Biosys to the water. May give them a breather on the nutes and just use the Cal-Mag and Biosys. Being as I've just topped dressed with rich fertilisers, I'm sure that will be OK for the next several waterings. Snipped another couple leaves which were annoying me 😅 I realised this is one of the pots I put my clay pebbles the bottom of. So I've probably not been watering enough, as she's right at the back, and assuming all was good because the pot was heavy. I went ahead and gave all the plants a thorough watering each with: 2ltrs of dechlorinated water, PH'd to 6.2 with:- ♡ 4ml of Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids. ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 4ml Seaweed extract liquid Going to keep an eye out to see when they need more in next couple of days. They're all looking very well, except the slight colour fade on Bubble Kush

---GENERAL COMMENT--- Girls are at day 4 technically, but i like to update Sunday always, so keep that in mind, is 1/2 a week now. From germination to soil emerging took 3-4 days, no issues at all. 100% germination rate from multiple breeders till now. I will try my best to do a stress free grow again, so will grow mainly naturally. ---RQS EASY BUD--- Ironically the Easy bud is developing better and growing faster than her sister. ---DAY 10 UPDATE--- Over some days she got volume, just started to use RECHARGE, and wow, that thing works, 48H you could tell something is different, since watering with it the stem is thicker and is growing more vigorous, lets see how it will impact overall! ---DAY 14 UPDATE. WEEK 2 FINAL--- This is the last day of this week and this girl is absolutely amazing, she grew a lot, showing already the intension of shooting up more stems, i'm very happy with her, it has been a delight to grow, response in very good. Voodoo juice is of by now, will keep the recharge maintenance every other watering as i'm loving it. Feeding program will start soon!

Tied them down overnight, then decided to try topping technique instead of LST. Will wait to top jack until she has another node, can’t wait to see how they react.

this week we did the topping following the guidelines of our more experienced friends.

SHE IS FASTER THAN I THOUGHT, AND I HOPE SHE WILLNOT BE STRESSED BY TOPPING

Die Pflanzen entwickeln sich prächtig und füllen nun das Netz fast vollständig aus. Beide Sorten – 24K Gold und Gelato 33 – zeigen stabiles, vitales Wachstum und reagieren hervorragend auf das strukturierte Training. 24K Gold streckt sich kraftvoll und nutzt jeden freien Platz unter dem Netz. Ihr Wuchs ist offen und energiegeladen – perfekt geeignet für die ScroG-Technik. Die Triebe wurden mehrmals umgelenkt, wodurch nun ein gleichmäßiges Blätterdach entstanden ist. Gelato 33 wächst kompakter, mit breiten Blättern und dichter Verzweigung. Sie reagiert gut auf das horizontale Führen und bildet viele gleichwertige Triebe. Ihr buschiger Wuchs sorgt dafür, dass sich das Netz schnell und gleichmäßig füllt. Die Tropfbewässerung läuft stabil mit mehreren kurzen Zyklen täglich. Düngung weiterhin bei Canna Coco A + B → 4 ml/l, pH ≈ 5.8, EC ≈ 1.4. Beide Pflanzen nehmen konstant Wasser auf und zeigen keinerlei Mangel- oder Stresssymptome. Klimabedingungen: 🌡️ Temperatur 25–26 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit 60 % 💨 Ständige Luftbewegung für starke Stängel Das ScroG-Gerüst ist nun vollständig installiert, die Triebe werden täglich nachjustiert. Die Fläche ist zu rund 80 % gefüllt – in Kürze erfolgt der Wechsel in die Blütephase. Beide Pflanzen zeigen maximales Potenzial: • 24K Gold: explosiver, aufrechter Wuchs – perfekt für Stretch. • Gelato 33: kompakt, dicht, extrem gleichmäßig im Aufbau. Ein idealer Abschluss der Veg-Phase – das Training hat seine Wirkung voll entfaltet.

Amazing, she totally resined until her big leaves were covered with ice, something beautiful her scent of vanilla something fruity with sweet indicates that her care was well associated with her so, the most of this girl we can hope for.

Look at those freaking towers on the right side;) and on these concrete jungle in the middle! Very satisfied with the ongoing process.
