-----WEEK SUMMARY-----
(Following text was translated with tools and reviewed, sorry for mistakes, misspellings or nosense things)
As you can see I've done a defoliation this week. Yes, I have really gone over the top, I have removed many more leaves than I had, and the tails of the plants has not come to join at all due to the failed defoliation.
Being the first defoliation I do, I did not really know what I was doing and I went crazy. Now that it has been several weeks since I made this defoliation, I realize that I should not have removed the leaves from the nodes of the tails, because they have stopped growing and have not joined with their superior parts. Anyway, the plants are beautiful today and although they could be much better I feel very happy with them.
I know I've made 2 fatal mistakes in this grow
- The first has been the massive defoliation badly done, defoliation yes, but with head ... do not follow my example.
- The second failure that I see today, is that I did not leave enough growth time (18/6) after having made the last pruning and that has made the tails have been a length much less than what would have been desired, I think that 2 more weeks of growth would have been perfect.

-----SUMARIO SEMANAL-----
Como podéis ver esta semana he hecho una defoliación. Si, efectivamente me he pasado de listo, he quitado muchas más hojas de las que debía y las colas de las plantas no ha llegado a unirse del todo debido a la fallida defoliación.
Al ser la primera defoliación que realizo, no sabía muy bien que hacía y me lancé a lo loco. Ahora que han pasado varias semanas desde que realicé esta defoliación, me doy cuenta de que no debí de haber quitado las hojas de los nodos de las colas, pues estos han dejado de crecer y no se han unido con sus partes superioras. De todas maneras, las plantas están preciosas a día de hoy y aunque podrían estar mucho mejor me doy con un canto en los dientes.
Se que he cometido 2 errores gordos en este cultivo
- El primero ha sido la defoliación masiva mal realizada, defoliación si, pero con cabeza.... no sigáis mi ejemplo.
- El segundo fallo que yo veo a día de hoy, es que no dejé suficiente tiempo de crecimiento (18/6) después de haber realizado las últimas podas y eso ha hecho que las colas hayan quedado de una longitud muy inferior a la que hubiera deseado, creo que 2 semanas más de crecimiento hubiera sido perfecto.
-----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO-----

The plant looks healthy.
Start to pre-flower this week.
I’m trying keep the plant as lower as possible.

Week 6 and we are reaching for the skies! LOL...it's a good thing but also bad...as she is starting to get light burn on the top main cola...my light is the highest it can be so I'm hoping that the Fox Farms Nutrient, Open Sesame, stops the stretch and focuses more on bud development. She will get fed on Friday!
I absolutely love watching my Runtz grow, I want massive trees in my tent now...I used to go crazy with the LST during veg weeks 4-5 and introduced open sesame earlier because I never wanted tall plants before...my first grow had tons of light burn and my tent is tiny!!! Just a little 2 x 4......but now I am steering that way...I just think the tent looks more beautiful....tall lengthy trees as opposed to short stumpers which is what I have been growing from the start :P
Went in with some more LST...at week 6 is usually when I try to go minimal on the manipulation but with how lanky she is...I think there's more room for some surprise colas to make an appearance!
Also, I took the SCROG netting out...I want more experience with growing before I start messing with new growing techniques..if you made it this far into reading wow congrats! LOL and Happy Valentine's Day....it's a day about love...loving yourself, your family, your pets, and of course your PLANTS!

10. November
Neue mainline schnitte plus LST per klammern an der Cookie gelato
Cookies Gelato 26 Tage alt
Tropimango 23 Tage alt
Runtz 12 Tage alt.
Lichtwechsel wenn die runtz 4 Wochen alt ist, bzw die Cookies gelato 6 Wochen alt ist.
Tag 50 Lichtwechsel? Quelle YouTube Video
12. November.
Cookies gelato hat an den beiden oberen Mains neue mainlinefrisur bekommen. Die unteren Mains haben noch alles behalten dürfen.
Das topping steht bald an.
Tropimango reagiert gut auf LST. Blätter weiterhin noch krank, allerdings nicht mehr so dramatisch
Die Runtz wächst und macht ihr Ding. Die wachstumsphase hat nun sicher begonnen: Stiel wird hölzern. Runtz wurde getoppt.
(Vor einem Monat +1 ist die Cookie und die Tropimango zum keimen gelegt worden)
13. November
Runtz wirkt gestresst und stagniert im Wachstum wegen des toppings. Besprühen mit Eisen hat sie auch aus der Ruhe gebracht.
Tropimango wächst. Immer noch kranke Blätter vorhanden, aber wenige.
Cookies gelato wächst.
14. November
Die runtz wächst wieder!! Eventuell ist mir unfreiwillig ein fimming schnitt gelungen?
Tropimango und gelato auch alles wie bisher.
Begleitpflanzen (weißklee&Kerbel) hinzugefügt
Cookies gelato ist 30 Tage alt
Tropimango ist 27 Tage alt
Runtz ist 16 Tage alt
15. November
Cookies gelato wurde zum zweiten Mal getopt an allen Trieben. Sie wird’s schon wegstecken
16. November
Topping gut überstanden. 👍 sind jetzt 8 Mains. Wachstum fühlt sich jetzt mega langsam an. Aber ich bin auch ungeduldig af 😅
Tropimango weiterhin kranke Blätter. Hab leider keine Idee woran es liegen könnte.
Runtz scheint tatsächlich neue Triebe an der schnittstelle zu entwickeln 🎉🤝. Archivement unlocked. Ich kann jetzt den fim schnitt.🤝💪
Alle drei Pflanzen haben ordentlich Wasser bekommen.
17. November
Habe feststellen können, dass der Wasserbedarf doch deutlich höher war als ich vermutet hatte. Alle drei reagieren sehr positiv auf die erhöhte Menge Wasser. 🚿 Ich hätte wohl großzügiger sein dürfen in den vergangenen Tagen.
Habe der Cookies gelato einen Edgar mit taperfade geschnitten (Mainlining). Eventuell habe ich an den unteren beiden unteren Mains ein Blatt Zuviel abgeschnitten? Ich werd’s im verlaufe der nächsten Tage sehen.
Der unfreiwillige fimming schnitt bei der Runtz war wohl „unsauber“. Einer der beiden Triebe ist dominanter als der andere. Vermutlich liegt es am schrägen Schnitt.
Tropimango macht tropimangosachen. Weiterhin mit kranken Blättern. 🤝.

Hey everyone 🤗.
This week was harvested properly 😍.
All of them are harvested, except for the two Tropicanna Banana (they will be on tomorrow).
All finished crop images follow little by little as soon as they have dried enough and have got their actual bud structure 😃.
I wish you much fun with the diary, stay healthy Ges and let it grow 🌱

11/30:
I fed them today and supercropped the taller one a little bit. Just trying to encourage her lowers to compete for apical dominance.
I raised the lights another few inches
12/1:
I raised the lights about a foot because of a couple of taller plants, so these girls and most of the others are on a platform so as to be within 15 inches of the lights. Their platforms are some of the shortest, and I think they're about to catch up with the others.👍
12/2:
Busy with life...didn't do much.
Very cold days, so the high temp in the closet was 72f today👈
12/4:
Switched to 13/11....afraid of it taking too long to flower and ending up with a bunch of pain in the ass 5-footers..

Day 30 of flower;
I raised her pot about 30 cm to get closer to the light and to prevent her younger tall neighbours from over-growing her. She's packed with deliciously smelling, very sticky buds. This is a true queen! One of the better, if not the best, smelling plant I've grown. Can't wait to try her. She'll be ready soon. 😊

Last watered on dec 10;
I eased up on the LST angle on the Larry OG. She’s looking a lot better than a couple of weeks ago. Although growth has been stunted substantially, I’ll try to nurse her back to the best of my abilities;
We’ll see if the coffee grounds cause nitrogen toxicity, or if it pays off;
The bud sites on the Mandarin Cookies have grown at least an 1 1/2in in the last week and seem to be doing well, There’s some very faint tip yellowing on the new growth so I think I’ll water with some plain ph’ed tap water and perhaps some molasses;

Let the pictures speak for it, just waiting for chop day..
---------------------
👇 This week (Day 48 from 12/12)
- Watering 1 to 1.5 liters per day. Following the plagron alga grow schedule (Stopped with sugar royal - too much N), along with compost tea weekly (Recipe Week 11). Calmag needed because my water its really soft.
- PPFD at canopy height is approximately 800, with VPD around 1.3-1.5 - Leaf Temp ~3°C lower than room
- Using 0.75 liters of compost tea per plant for superior bud flavor 👉 See recipe for week 11 👈
- Pulling some leafs here and there
- Granndy Candy tolerates the light intensity somewhat better
---------------------
Happy growing, and thank you for checking out my report! Your support means a lot to me! 🙏
---------------------
I appreciate every like and comment 👍👊😃

End of week 2 on day 14 (photos). On day 11 or 12 the roots emerged from the net pot and hit the reservoir at water level (see video). I didn't notice it until day 12 however. No environmental changes. She looks healthy and happy.

Officially week 7
Dec 31:
Came back a week later to very heavy pots, needed 36 hour drying period, not happy, smaller plant has tips of leaves curling down, some like taco, dryed out the pots and went back to normal conservative feeding, need to fine tune the auto irrigation setup before I use it again for sure. All in all, nothing crazy happened. Really cool to see a plant be small, but way bigger after a week of vacation. First grow seems to be going pretty good!
PS: I think my hygrometer is broken, saying 85-100% RA even when I significantly improve airflow and it doesn't seem anywhere near that. Gonna do the salt paste test on the hygrometer
.
Jan 1:
I recalibrated my hygrometer and it’s working great, weird leaf curling of smaller plant still happening but seems to be improving, big plant is frosty and fat for week 7, seems to be at same stage in development as smaller plant but the pheno is beautiful.
