2/17/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 1- I removed some of the water to see where the roots were only one had roots in the water. However I want to go ahead and get them on Week one Nutes So I am over 50 gallons of water in the system so I mixed the Trio at a 1.0mil per Gallon but restricted it to a top of 50 gallons period. I top fed the other two to keep encouraging root growth. I also finished my drying and curing from my last run and wanted to show what it looks like all bagged up and in the cannatrol.
I added the following Nutes:
Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 25Mil
CalMag= .75Mil/Gal= 37.5Mil
FloraMicro = 1Mil/Gal= 50Mil
FloraGro= 1Mil/Gal= 50Mil
FLoraBloom= 1Mil/Gal= 50Mil
ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 25Mil
EPSOM- 1 big pinch
2/18/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 2- I top fed #1 and #3 since they still don't have roots in the water, I will continue one top feed a day until roots hit water.
2/19/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 3- #3 now has root in the water.. Yay!! I now have #2 and #3 with roots in the water so no top feed for them. I only had to top feed #1 and the only reason I didn't just go ahead and cull her today was I am responsible for breaking her tap root and stunting her, I wasn't careful enough and she was the first to show a good root. In that vain I will carry her a few more day's top feeding but if not root by the end of the week she is getting culled.
2/20/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 4- Today I Ensured the PH is in range, I refilled the Humidifiers, I top fed #1 since the roots are still not in the water. I also removed the humidity shields from #2 and #3 today the ladies were touching the sides so they are done with the extra shields..
2/21/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 5- Today Morning: I Ensured the PH is in range, I refilled the Humidifiers, I top fed #1 since the roots are still not in the water,
Evening: I decided that the roots of the two are looking great so I am going to drain and bump the Nutes to a full Week 1/ Week 2 Nute base.
I added 36 Gallons
I added the following Nutes:
Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil
CalMag= .75Mil/Gal= 27Mil
FloraMicro = 3Mil/Gal= 108Mil
FloraGro= 2Mil/Gal= 72Mil
FLoraBloom= 2Mil/Gal= 72Mil
ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil
2/22/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 6- Today I Ensured the PH was not too high as the system continues to cycle the water and adjust, I refilled the Humidifiers, I top fed #1 since the roots are still not in the water,
2/23/2024 - Vegetation Week 1 Day 7- Still have to Top Feed #1 no roots in the water, however she is still progressing nicely slower than her sisters with roots in the water but still going strong.

Just watching them grow :) nothing special to add. I was considering flushing one plant this week, as I mentioned in my last post, but to be frank I didn't consider the actual flowering time and just wanted everything to be as fast as possible, which is not a good thing on my part. Now I'll feed them 1 or maybe 2 weeks longer (depending on the plant, as I'm trying to give them at least 5-6 weeks of flower (the recommended time for flower for this strain from what I can gather).
I would love to hear your opinions on this.
Thanks for stopping by and happy growing 🌿😁

Yo nailed it down this week should really be end of week 7 flower so 10 weeks total life. Sticking to the plant of1 more week nutes then see if they are ready for flush.
Dropped the Bud Burst. It really wasn't working with my tanks and causing a film to build up on the pipework. Flushed mid week with Pure Clean and fresh tank of nutes. Dropped to around 1.4ec and 5.8ph to finish up. They dont look hungry for anything at this point just changing to autumn colours and hardening up. I dont expect the size to change all that much but rather becoming more dense and changing of colours.

I started the GSC seeds from HSC by soaking in a glass of water overnight then planted in coco coir under a humidity dome in my veg tent. I will plant them in flower box in a couple weeks when they can handle the feed that my BB clone is on right now. On day 5 my 2 other Gsc seeds rotted perhaps too wet but I have one good remaining for this run. I started White widow seeds and will run 2 phenos. Gsc is looking good so far.

What a beautiful strain Orange Hill Special is, nice and bushy, great internodal spacing, sturdy and healthy. Happier and happier with how this grow is going.
The less beautiful parts on top are my doing, my blind as a bat FIM destroyed half the top of the plant. More patience next time...
The super soil is still performing great and I´m pushing up the dimmer to get the ladies used to more light, very carefully because leaves are folding every time.
Some of you might be happy to find my European recipe/shopping list for super soil. I tried to make it with widely offered products throughout Europe.
Feel free to use it and elaborate on it.
If one product is not available in your country, please check the brands at the bottom, which might be available in your country, and substitute.
The only thing one could add to the recipe (which I did but forgot in the shopping list) is some Epsom salt.
Fed them again with my permaculture tea, all seem to flourish and smells are starting to come from the plant, with that same distinct dankiness I had in earlier grows with this tea.
See the germination page and other diaries for more info on my Perma tea.
Now they were big enough, some might even say too big, to start the real training. I always love to give them a little bend the week before, to get used to the idea.
With some sterilized bamboo sticks I pushed the plants down to expose their sexy undersides. Let them become forests of buddy bush.
Thats it for this week! Thanks for following and happy growing!!

Week 7: Well after accidentally super cropping the White Widow, splitting a branch then taping up on the Blueberry Big Devil and then mass defoliation, the ladies have coped well. I feel like I have watering dialed in now with a combination of using a soil moisture meter and picking up the pots, I have faith I am close to right with timing. The last feeding in week 6 I used full strength nutrients. This resulted in some nutrient burn with some tips of leaves changing colors. I feed just water the next go around and yesterday feed again with 1/2 strength nutrients. I will stick with that until flush. I am going to switch to dry amendments for my next grow and try that out. Temperatures are coming down into 60s at night and topping out in low 80s. Humidity has been hovering between 45-50 without any need for equipment to run. I did some lollipoping and cut lose all the secondary popcorn buds that weren't seeing the light of day. I can't think of anything I could have done physically to stress them beyond this point than I have, so from this point on out I am just going to water and feed. No more LST, adjustments, etc.. I have already been way too active in flower from my understand of autos anyway.

I wasn’t expecting these to stretch as much as they did, but they seem to come to a halt and are now focusing on bud sites. The Diamond OG has larger tops with smaller popcorn sized coming up the stem and started to frost later than the Cherry Gum. The Cherry Gum has smaller tops with more buds up the whole stalk and started frosting up right after the switch to flower.

Day 3 :
I gave water and checked for sprouts. Bought moist meter and dripping hose.
Installed those and making the greenhouse more moisty now.
Putted seeds in small sprout basket for now.

We are nearing the finish line! Both ladies look great, and the delicious aroma wafting from the tent brings a smile to my face every time. I think we should finish the run in about two weeks. 🍋🍋🍋

The temperatures, humidity, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil.
Day 1 we had thunderstorms and rain in the morning followed by sunshine.
Day 2 we had rain in the morning followed by sunshine, then thunderstorms that night.
Day 3 we had rain and thunderstorms that morning and intermittently throughout the day.
Day 4 we had rain in the morning and cloudy until the evening when the sun came out.
Day 5 we had rain in the morning then mostly cloudy until the late afternoon.
Day 5 we had sunshine and clear skies until the afternoon. Around 4:00 pm a severe thunderstorm hit. It produced strong winds, heavy rain, and grape sized hail. Fortunately the hail lasted only a few minutes and only damages some leaves.
Day 6 we had sunshine, but cooler temperatures in the mid 70's.
Day 7 we had rain and thunderstorms through the previous night and into the morning. We had sunshine, clear skies, and temperatures in the upper 70's. That was followed by severe thunderstorms, rain, and a touch of hail from 4p.m. to 6p.m.
The weather has been challenging this week. Rain everyday or night and lots of it. The rain on night 6 and morning 7 has started turning the hairs of TCA2 top bud brown. There's no softness and I hope it's not the start of rot. These fastbuds have taken a beating from the rain and there's more in the forecast. Other than the rain the buds are starting to smell and grow. Overall it was a successful week.
