I’ve been a little busy with school and haven’t been able to update the grow. this video is from day 39 in flower. The smell is amazing and very pungent. My whole place would reek if I didn’t have the carbon filter

So nicely in the swing of flower now And looking amazing I really pumped the nutrients this week as you can see, At the end of this week a stopped giving the plant these addavitves More roots, Humic acid, Growzyime, Fast bud folar spray, And big buds, And have now started too raise the house & Garden A&B soil feed and also there budXL I also started off early but as a trace amount of there top shooter, By the end of week I intend on giving them the full recommended of each and only be giving them the house and garden range at full streingh, I will then wait for the first Amber tricomb then instant flush feeds, Hopefully I get two weeks from that stage but it is often genetic so as long as I get at least one week and at least 3 feeds of water only then I'm happy

At the beginning of this week, I have been fighting the gnats, which are less and less now. Just some watering and gradually lowering the light and going to full power. The Orange Hill Special has been filling out great and I must say, she is a pretty plant. With some manual bending and super cropping, I'm bending the longer stalks sideways and we are off. What I actually do is more of an intuitive hybrid between mainlining (where I bend the whole plant 90 degrees at the third week), LST (where I bend branches outward slightly, without tying), HST / Super crop (where I bend the stems 90 degrees with the clips or manually), after which I keep bending outward to SOG and, put the net over to end in SCROG. This same method gave me the canopy in my prize-winning Gelato 33 grow. Check it out if you haven't seen it, it was my first experimental accident that led to beta test of Super Soil mixture 0.7, now we are at Alpha version 1.00 and testing great so far if I say so myself. I haven't seen such lush greens in my own grows, only outdoor. They seem uber-healthy and resilient, with very sturdy stems and leaves. Way more resilient than previous strains I tested in the beta soil. The light is performing, the natural color of it makes everything pop. Mars Hydro has a winner with the SP-3000. Check out their site: www.mars-hydro.com Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting me test it, hook them up for a great deal or info on their products! Halfway through this week, I took the clips out, AND...... we switched them to go into flowering. After a day the stretch is already visible. I had to bend them again after a couple of days. Now we have almost a tent filling foundation for a maximum result canopy of buds. I was wanting to amend the soil with flowering additions (see recipe in yellow image), but I'm holding it off for two reasons. A/ The leaves are still so green and lush, I think there is an abundance of nutes. B/ @Haoss mentions his suspicions on his OHS grow (@#CannapediaProGrowersCup Orange Hill that very sadly went hermie on him) that nutrition in this phase could have had an influence, after asking what happened to him. I would have loved to see that grow to full harvest. But it makes me a bit cautious. if Haoss (whom I consider to be one of the star growers here) couldn't prevent this, what chance have I? I'm waiting until the girls start asking for nutrients. They'll show me what they need in their own time. For now this soil is the shizzle (also quite literally) and Im happy with how everything is going. I remember much more hassle and steering in the last grow. This grow, even the Gorilla runt seems happy. I now water them 3 liters of water / Perma tea mixture every 4 days, every 3rd watering I don't do the tea. This makes for fewer gnats and this soil seems to hold water nicely, also due to the hydro corn. What I like is there is always some unforeseen circumstance, a tilt of the tables, some battle to be fought which delivers in big harvests or, in worst case, no harvest at all. It makes it more exciting, when your heart is at stake, we pour a lot of love and attention in the ladies. So with hopes, but not too high, we go into flowering. Thank you all for joining me again in this Orange adventure! I hope you all had great weeks, germed seeds, extreme growth and buds bursting with trichomes!! See you next week! Hug Bud PS Sunshine made her first appearance, as she promised on the Gelato 33 grow. She is still a bit camera shy, so her digital alter makes an appearance first, if you all want to see more of her and my other helpers, let me know in the comments. Sunshine will make a real appearance if yall are real nice to her.

Work in progress however I finally was able to get the girls into the drip system. They have recovered nicely from the light burn but unfortunately I lost one of the girls. Now I am working with 4 and so far happy with the results. I am waiting on a better light, I ordered a 720 watt bar style light from Alibaba which will arrive in just a few weeks hopefully before flower. Still need to get the room in order so more to come on improvements. Switched to Gen Hydro Maxi Series just for the simplicity. We will see how this goes.

On day 1 I changed out my reservoir. I lowered my nutes to 650 ppm(25% reduction). I adjusted the PH down to 6.1. My left plant has some burnt tips from either PH shift or over fertilization. My hope is that the lower ppm will help to resolve the issue before it spreads. On day 2 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.3 to 5.9. On day 3 the reservoirs PH is 6.0. I installed my new 200 watt HLG Rspec. I adjusted PPFD readings to 700-1300 PPFD on all tops. On day 4 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.8 to 6.2. On day 5 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 6.4 to 6.0. I diluted my nutrients in my reservoir by removing one gallon of nutrients from the rez and and adding 2 gallons of straight tap water to the rez. This brought the nute concentration from 770 ppm to 540 ppm as the plants will be entering the ripening stage in a few days and they have too much nitrogen judging by the extremely dark green leaves and burnt leaf tips on some branches of the left side plant. The buds seem slightly smaller then my last run which may be due to an excess of nitrogen and maybe not enough light as some of my tops are taller then the others making proper PPFD challenging. All in all the girls are coming along nice and I look forward to the final weeks of flowering 😀 On day 6 I adjusted the reservoirs PH from 5.9 to 6.2. I think I have halted the nute burn as I haven't seen it progressing any more on the leaves. I will continue to monitor closely during these final weeks. The trichome production is increasing with some trichs on top of colas starting to go cloudy. The pistils are turning brown with roughly 40-50% are turning brown all signs I'm getting closer to the harvest window 😆. I dimmed my light to give 600-1000 PPFD to tops. On day 7 I reduced my temps to 75 during the day and 68 at night. I adjusted the PH of the reservoir from 6.6 to 6.1. My reservoirs ppm was too high so I diluted the rez with 2 gal of tap water. This brought it down to 480ppm. The average ppfd to all 14 tops is 604 with no top receiving more than 1000 ppfd

Second run with these genetics, I ran her last time in a 5.4 gallon container, I got the grape pheno, higher yield with the first run, but much tighter nugs with this run. This one smells much more earthy/gassey and less grapey. I ended up with just under 26 zips of nugs, 2 zips of Larf which I will turn into canna sugar, and my buddy made a 35 gram brick of bubble from the trim. It should be dry in the next few days and I'll post a video of the squeeze, hoping to get around a zip of rosin which I will split with him since he turned the bubble...Super excited to squeeze some nugs once the cure is done, Ill post vids of them as wel. Next run I'm planning to try and cram 2 plants inside a 5X5, build mainlines, and flip by week 6 or 7....Switching to two 315 W CMH bulbs up top, and LED's on 2 of the sidewalls for supplemental lighting. Looking forward to it, stay safe, blaze on!

Final countdown!!! 💐

So as the week ends and I draw closer to harvest(10 weeks of flower 17 in all) of my first ever grow I trimmed dried and smoked a bottom bud that was wasting nutes. Jesus God in heaven it's got a kick already. Send me a like! Make a comment. I'm here alot.

In the third week of the cannabis plant growth cycle, significant developments occur that set the foundation for future growth and yield. This stage is crucial for implementing training techniques that ensure even canopy growth, promoting optimal light exposure for all parts of the plant. To ensure uniform growth and maximize light exposure, LST have been applied By the end of the third week, the cannabis plants have demonstrated excellent growth, supported by strategic training techniques and effective pest management practices. Despite the plant's healthy growth, the presence of fungus gnats posed a potential threat. To combat these pests, beneficial nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) were introduced into the soil. Continued monitoring and adjustments will be essential as the plants progress into the next growth stages to ensure a bountiful harvest.

The indoor plants are developing a mobile nutrient deficiency(newer growth is pulling from older leaves)in the lower leaves. Nutrients are being locked out(too much of one nutrient is locking out the others in the soil, or temperatures are too cold in the soil) or they are being tied up in solution whenever I mix the lotus nutrients(I’m adding bloom and boost into the same gallon, so maybe the chemicals are reacting with each other and becoming unavailable to the plant). On top of my nutrient dilemma, fungus gnats have found their way to my moist soil and are being a nuisance. From what I found they’re surviving off of my woody material in the soil and will soon try to establish it as a home so I’ve got to go get some IPM. Outdoors is vibing with the pest pressure so I’ll continue to let it do it’s thing.

In Woche 14 haben die Ladys noch ein bisschen Dünger bekommen. Beide brauchen bestimmt noch 3 Wochen, da ist das schon okay 😄

10 días 12/12

Week 9, day 57.... started this week with a feeding of pH 6.0 plain water. Hope she start to fatten up really soon. I'm going to take it a little light with the feeding this week because I gave her some nutrient burn.i also noticed some of her older leaves are getting a little yellow, is that something I should worry about? Day 58..... she's ok, took a few pictures of her leaves that has those dull spots. Hopefully someone can lead me in the right direction. I see very little progress with her buds swelling. I do have a heater in my tent which is right next to this plant(not facing or touching) and I was reading about heat stress, could it be that she's this tall because of it? I did switch around my 2 plants in the tent. I'll monitor and let you guys know in a few days. Day 59.....this plant is really big, she's taking up more than half of my tent. About the deficiency, I don't know exactly what it is but I tested the ppm runoff and it's about 3500 which is really high. I honestly never tested the ppm of my feedings. She's going to get a nice flush and I'll be monitoring my ppm from now on. He buds do seem to be fattening up slowly but it's noticable every day. Day 60.....well her leaves are looking better but you can see the nutrient burn on the tips. This plant looks very different from the rest of @fast_buds girl scout cookies. I just hope she swell up before she's ready to harvest. Day 61......took a look at her trichomes and to me they look milky. I don't know if her buds will get any bigger. 😥. Day 63......last day of week 9, gave her pH 6.0 plain water today. Took a macro shot of her trichomes, let me know what you guys think.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme

The Sensi Seeds Research breeding project has created eleven cannabis seed varieties. How? By combining new cannabis cultivars with a selection of strains from their long-established cannabis gene bank. For the first time in thirty-six years, they are opening the doors of the Sensi Seeds Research and Development Department. Week #7 Plants are growing, needed to give them all the space available and had to switch on all the lights ! It’s full Veg mode now. I will ScrOG them next week, this might be a 9 weeks Veg, will see how they grow into the screen during the next week. Still thinking about the room with 4 x Mars-Hydro SP250, I could be able to save energy and to gain more light ! No nootz this week, just plain pH’d water, the Product-X is doing his job and the BIO Soil is alive. (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

Day 85 - Noticed at least briefly, the tent had gotten up to about 84°, but went back down to its normal 82ish. I don't know if it has to do with slightly warmer temperatures or not. I will monitor. Was also fed today, following the Dyna-Gro feed chart with 2 tsp Bloom, and 2 tsp Mag Pro. As of this week, Foliage Pro is no longer going to be given. As I sit here and reflect on some of the earlier grow, I am starting to realize that lots of my discoloration early in the grow was likely predominantly caused by me. Not thinking, with this being a coco/peat mix, once I started feeding, it should have been every feed. I was not wanting to overfeed, so basically I fed one watering, then the next was plain water, thus essentially flushing the pot once a week and feeding once a week. Am I sure this was the cause, no, but it is the most logical thing that I can think of. I will call it 'first grow' lessons learned! Day 86 - Temp seemed to stay around 82° today, with a few hours of light left. Day 87 - She seems to be moving along fine with minimal effort on my part. Flowering seems to be the easiest part by far, but the hardest (having to wait when it gets close). Mid day update - New fan has arrived. Will be put in the tent tonight when the lights come on. Day 88 - Fed today, just over 1g with 2 tsp of Bloom and Mag Pro (per gallon). Installed the new Vivosun fan. Happy with it so far, seems a much better design to clip to the tent. Haven't used the old one as an underskirt fan just yet, but may still do so. Added a video looking at the new fan through the looking window of tent, so you can see it in action, while the tent is sucked in. You can see the leaves move from each side of the plant, then how the oscillation just perfectly fills the tent corner. I won a reverse auction from GPS, for a pack of Chinook Haze over the weekend (killer price), so I am going to start a small genetics collection I think. My original order from GYO has 1 Barneys Farm Pineapple Chunk (freebie), 2 random (freebies), 2 GYO GSC and 2 GYO Bubblegum seeds left, all of which should be feminized. The GPS seeds are regular. I really want to try some Subcool strains, like Jack the RIpper (have had the smoke and liked it) or Grape Lime Ricky (description just sounds awesome), but don't feel like paying $10 a bean for regular seeds at this point in time. The other I want to get is some White Rhino, which I might end up picking up some Nirvana White Rhino (another smoke I thoroughly enjoyed) seeds at some point as well. Day 89 - There is something peaceful about just sitting by the tent with the door open, and relaxing with the plant. NOTICE: Since a comment brought it to my attention that I never showed the lights, I added pics in the week 2 section, since that is when they went into the tent. They are QB132 v1 lights from HLG. Day 90 - Temp again hit 84° in the tent. I guess I can't worry too much. There is plenty of airflow, that that thermo is on the net, in the light, so it may be more of a radiant vs ambient temp. She isn't really showing any ill signs of it, so I will just keep plugging along. Day 91 - Fed today, 2tsp Bloom and Mag Pro (per gallon), with 140 oz given. 5 weeks of flower in the books. GYO lists this strain as a 55-63 day flower. I don't know if they base that off of time flip, or pistil formation, but I am 35 days in from time flip (I think it was about 12 days for first pistils), and I can't imagine that it will be done in 3 more weeks. I'm thinking at least 4 more, but we will see how she finishes as the weeks continue to go by. Opened the tent right before lights on today to grab a couple lights off flash on photos.

First time doing lst not the most clean one but great results. Super fast flowering. And exciting vegetative. Super recommendable strain.

Going onto week 2 of flower! These were taken dec28, so day 8 of flower. So far looking fine though a bit dehydrated. This one definitely is water hungry now and needs to be watered every other day now. We'll see how she comes along into the next few weeks. D6 of this week (d13 of flower), and we can start to see flowers coming in a teensy bit. We are still watering every 2 -3 days. On D7 we did a slightly premature feed of the flower girl fertilizer. Cheers -Dj Sunstone

Start of week 2 of flowering, both girls were drooping heavily and the medium was dry and pots were very light feeling. Removed the worst leaves from each plant and a few large fan leaves. Overall, I'm very happy with the weeks growth and development.
