Looking For a Keeper cream of the crop seeds Purple paralysis 24th February 2021 5 weeks of flowering down and I've had a few dramas this week....... Firstly a thunderstorm ripped thru and snapped a few branches that I had to "mend" with some good old tape. I also needed to add ropes to help support the long branches. The second thing that is happening is a Catterpillar attack 😠 After the recent rains I have noticed hundreds of butterflies and Moths flying around my garden which in turn equals bloody little plant eating catterpillars. I have made up a strong mix of chilli and garlic that I intend to spray all over my garden asap. Other than those couple of issues the plants are still growing nicely and the buds are stacking up and developing lots of sticky resin glands. 👌 Cheers for stopping by 👍

Very robust plant with a lot of big buds. It smell very sweet like a mango with citrus and floral. Amazing.

10 weeks / 70 days old today. Buds are all a bit fatter and a bit frostier this week! They glisten in the light and and are well and truly coated. Noticed a few leaves with brown spots this week and after reading up I decided it could be a calcium deficiency. Gave a cal mag feed and monitored and no more brown spots have appeared. We’re pretty close to the finish line now so not sure I’ve done the right thing or whether I should just let it be. Few more old leaves at the bottom started to yellow so chopped them. Some trichomes are starting to turn milky but majority are still clear. Haven’t bothered with a picture because it’s so hard to get a clear one. Still taking up lots of water and giving 3ml of bloom nutrients in every water. Been reading lots about flushing and I’m not sure whether to do it. Read lots that say if it’s cured properly then there isn’t any difference to the taste. I think half the battle is knowing when to do it. How does a beginner know when you’ve got 2 weeks left?! Been tempted to chop off the popcorn buds and so glad I didn’t. I put some bulbs lower down to give them plenty of light and they’re fattening up pretty well. Bit worried again about the space issue. Lots of new pistils have sprouted and most are around the top buds. Read that it could be foxtailing due to light stress but could also just be buds fattening out and having a last try at pollinating 🤷🏻‍♀️ who knows! Overall another exciting week getting closer to the finish. Booked our summer holiday for August and trying to decide whether to start a new grow when these finish. there’s a risk they might not be done in time but I’m desperate to try again and improve on this one. I have well and truly got the grow bug!!

2024/05/05 : I was away for a few days, there are buds everywhere now... gave them a shot of bio PK. The height is 48 cm : LED is 20 cm away but I can move it up. I wait to see if Blueberry can handle it as it is, it shouldn't stretch much more. DLI between 34 and 42. It drank 12.5 L last 5 days. Fan leaves are dark green and the smell is present (lemon for the moment) : last watering with bio PK in two weeks and I shouldn't do anything else until end. I like Autopot+Biotabs!😍

Hello everyone 👋 She grew fast and with a beautiful green colour on the leaves! She has responded superbly to low stress training and topping & i defoliated her aswell and seems didn't even notice 😎 Wish you all a good day and happy growing 😁

Frank and Pedro are already showing that they gonna turn dark purple, Lance still not real flowers yet. day36: frank and pedro got some molasses day40: frank and pedro get way to yellow, so Mr.Pipi top dressed 3,5 spoons (29g) bio bloom feeding by greenhouse. Gommemode activated

While the others have finished, for Cheese this will be the last week and he's already in flush, I'll give Bubblegum another week. What can I say? I'm so proud of these two!

Girls are doing well with the LST. Kosher cake was topped last week and now has what looks like 8 heads. 3rd of June have given the girls living soil veg.

Unfortunately I didn't get her repotted quick enough and my yield will suffer, bummer. All I can do is push on and see what happens. Just a touch of nutrients for now.

Okay so thats probably the last week, though i still dont see any amber trichomes. Im scared of budrot and i cant see any huge progress.. one is behind and is getting one more week. I harvested one already at day 55 due to budrod.. Im happy to see any last advices! DAY 58 - DUE TO SOME SPIDER AND MORE BUUDROT IM GONNA HARVEST THEM ALL EXCEPT ONE NOW FUCK THIS IM MAD i think i need some bigger fans next time

I harvested the plant in week 9. I put her in dark room for 3 days before harvesting. I didnt flush her, just let the soil dry out. I gave the buds 3 washes in water and one wash with water with lemon juice.

Hellow growers. Not quite sure whats going on but im now under the impression this isnt an auto as labelled. Lights have been on an 18/6 schedule but now i have set them to 12/12. I should be seeing pistils by now if it was an auto lol. I aint mad if it aint but i have veged a monster. Her stem has lots of girth her canopy is nice and even. Defoliated 22/11 Yay positive they are not automatic. So correcting info.

things are still getting thicker things are getting near a finish just watered with cal-mag and alaska fish fertilizer going to be feeding two more weeks or so then start the flushing after the 9 weeks of flower

another week, another update. by the end of week 6 of flower the two ladies (#1 and #2) are doing great. I noticed a little deficiency by rust spots on the leaves; did some research online and i went ahead to give this one ane extra dose of Overdrive (0-5-4) for her newly developed flowering PK hunger.

week 7 first flowering week when I finally discovered my princess was actually a prince. 12/12 flowermind ferts (6ml + 0.5g) LST + defoliation started seeing some thrips again, but just a few, nothing to worry so, the plant stayed for 4 weeks in the tent, under COB LED 200W.

Week 12 D86 Flowering 35-40 days since stigma started showing. She is growing really well, for now what ever all the little rust spots were are gone. Still not solid explanations as to what it was or to as why it came up. Made a hard choice. And snipped the roots that were drinking from the plate, as this could of been the cause as to why this was happening on otherwise a healthy looking plant. Lowered the PPM from 1550 down to 1250 and will bring her down another 3-600 over the course of the next week and then another 2-300 the following week and keep her on regular 700ppm feeds of just bloom, but candy overdrive and B-52. All other nutes will be pulled over the next 2 weeks, gradually and not all at once neither, don't want to shock her into a def, just want to make sure all this crap is flushed from her. Big bud, she got her last feed of that today and that's her done on that now. She was started on her normal mix - 300ppm. RH is holding at a steady 65 temp is 26, 21c with lights off. 14/3/22 Added my 2nd intake fan was able to bring down the RH down as low as 53% with the 2 on full blast. Rooms RH is at 46% dehumidifier has been running 24/7 since I got it. Not good enough though. It works but looks like I'm going to get a 370watt 25l (meaning, it takes 25l out of the air every 24hrs, the 1 im using now is a 60watt that gets rid of 2l every 8hrs). It'll do in an hour what this machine takes 8hours to do. So it'll actually use less energy overall. 18/3/22 Plant is coming on nicely, putting on lots of bud mass, hopefully it'll keep packing on bud as there is not much in the way of sugar leafs it'll just be nice dense bud. For the last 24 hrs I've thrown her into a hard flush, 6l of water with 2 flushes one last night 1 tonight after each flush 50ml with sensi cal mag extra 1ml/50ml was given so the plant wouldn't go into full flush and the nutes left behind will break down helping nute uptake. Very important to introduce some cal as if you flush for too long and have a high build up of salts you'll cause a form of nute lock and throw plant into the flushing phase. So always use some cal mag on top to break down the nutes you are trying to flush. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime
