-----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-----

(Update: 4/20/19)
Please stand by while they dry.
(Update
Everything is going great though! The smell is very strong now; no more cut grass smell. From looking at all three today, I believe that some of the smaller branches will be done drying and ready for trimming and weighing in a day or two.
I have one guess for dry weight of Big Lemon, any other guesses?? Remember, the picture of Big Lemon hang drying looks like its two plants, but its all Big Lemon; I had to cut it off to be able to hang it. The amputated branch left of the main plant is bigger than my other two plants alone!
(Update 5/2/19)
Woah...Okay. So after drying the whole for about nine days, and trimming for four days, Big Lemon's dry weight SO FAR is about 430ish grams of super dense and sticky nugs. Its amazing that I got more big bud than I got popcorn nugs from such a big plant.
I have one more 1/2 gal Mason Jar of untrimmed tops to finish, then I'll post pics or a vid of the weigh up and glamour shots etc..
Oh, almost forgot, Little Lemon produced about 40 grams of very nice bud. This surpassed expectations because, although it was planted on the same day as Big Lemon, it was the runt of the bunch because it got pushed out of the main tent that had all the lights and Co2 environment and everything. It spent much of late veg under a very weak light. I remember how limp it was when I gambled on it and chose to switch her over to 12/12. But it was totally worth it in the end!
Alight back to work for me. Check back later today for pics, vids!
(Final Update: 5219 @11:09pm PT)
Its done. Its finally done! I had to trim both plants with my own two hands! So Exhausting, yet so rewarding.
So above are several videos of the weighing. Grand total for Big Lemon is 14oz of prime top shelf nugs, and about 3oz of nice popcorn/LARF (they are separated as shown above in a video. Forgive me for not throwing it all together to weigh it, I spent a long, long, very long time trimming and sorting and canning the buds according to their respective grade/quality. I may add one more update to show their respective weights.
Oh and little lemon produced about an 1 1/2 oz of prime nuggets and quite a bit of popcorn/LARF, which I haven't gotten around to weighing yet.
So, Grand Grand total of Both Lemon OG Candy (amazing job with this beast of a strain, Philosopher seeds) is about 18.5oz, or 1lb 2.5oz for two plants; 15.6oz of which is entirely made up of top-shelf buds 😎
Damn I love SoCal, I didnt even need to run carbon filters because no one be trippin about a lil stink weed.
Thanks to those for following this grow! Tell me what yall think! Cant wait to see some comments from all you growers out there.
(Update: smoke review after a week or two of cure)
This Lemon OG Candy had an extended veg period, about 4 months maybe a little longer, and I harvested her on day 56 of flower (recommended harvest 60-70 days) because of the size/distance to light and her root-bound problems. The results so far, a very uplifting and stimulating quality.

Easy grow the FoxFarm plant yielded 53 Grams of bud and 14 of trim, the Recipe420 dropped 61 and 68 grams plus a 29 grams of trim. Like everyone else it seems my experience with FoxFarm soils are ....interesting the Recipe420 girls took nutes like a champ and the soil didn't get compacted stayed nice and airy, the FoxFarm soil is considerably denser retained water better but did not take nutes well AT ALL. It may be me but I'm going to try either my own mix or a different blend. No shade good soil just..weird. Chopped them and hung them whole in the GGT 4X2 dried them at 60-70 degree F, and 58-62% humidity for 10 days, trimmed and placed in CVault tasted one bud in the process and holy smokes she hits 😀 this aint no dispo stuff

They looking good, but temp is a little too high. It is what it is
One of the plants (In front to the left) is more frosty, with less amber pistils.
But overall the trichomes are starting to go from crystal to cloudy. Which is my timing for start flush.
24/7
-Temp 23-26day/21-24night
-47%RH (2+-)
25/7 Water day* start of flush
Gave them till run through with plain ph balanced water, and topped it off with some light nutrients-mixed water.

Tough going first few weeks going to look close on the postmortem for the roots and see if I can tell what was causing the issues with Phos, Ca, Mg lockouts. Foliar saved the day
Was very disappointed in the germination rate which caused delays in grow cycle and threw off my whole grow system. It forced me into 7 gallon pots to try and save the yield and THAT may be where the issues arose with the pots, I had to use another bin of soil for the extra soil. Still I should have known better and just stuck with the 5 gallon pots but was trying to get yield. Worked too on Layla and Maggie, nothing was going to help the stunting on Brandy which I dropped from the grow.
So 60% germination is not acceptable unless its tomatoes...
Dont get me wrong though, this strain has a LOT of good qualities, it not only survived my foul up but produced one excellent plant and one monster out of the three that germed.
May try it again next year, think it would be stellar in coco.
Beyond that a quality product, just had issues.
Easy-ish trim and harvest
For numbers on Layla (Week 12)
12/19 HARVEST DAY LAYLA
wet yield 578 grams
Dry weight 219 grams
Maggie wet weight 886 grams
Into dry DRY weight 255g
Layla 219g + Maggie 255g = 474g
Not letting me rate the Aurora Innovations Soul Peak PK and Finisher I give it 4 stars

Girls are looking great so far! I added about 2ml/g to the reservoir and the plants responded well. Got a good explosion of growth over the last few days. I was able to start LST training the largest of the 4 today and the other 3 will be a day or 2 until they will be ready to start LST. Had some Ph issues during week 4 because my pen decided to go wonky. I tried to calibrate it again and had a hard time. So I busted out an older one and decided to calibrate it and see if it worked still... calibrated in a few min and sure enough res ph was well bellow 5. So water was changed as it was time anyway and ph’d proper just before lights out so we will see what happens tomorrow.

Light on Spider farmer SF4000 was turned up to 70 percent plant is doing better. Light is still 36 inches above plants in a 2x4 tent. I turned the light to 70% from 50% 3 days later I think I see some nanners starting. Possible light stress? I am going to let it all play out really interested in seeing what happens. I am all about the learning.

I've been waiting for at least some trichomes to turn amber. I prefer to harvest when there are at least a few amber. I took the PL2 3 days before the PL1. Flushed them for a week only

------------------------------------------------------------
💧Watering each pot:
Day 25 : 0.5 L
Day 28 : 0.5 L
I use tap water, adjust the ph to around 6 and water
------------------------------------------------------------
🔥❄️Temperature of the week :
Day : 19-23°C (Humidity : 60-75%)
Night : 14-17°C

First week of flowering in the bag, trying out a new deep voice in my videos does it sound sexy? Let me know in the comments. seeing a little bit of stress on the leaves, but nothing major. The new developing growth is green so everything seems to be going well. I’m gonna give it another week and then I’ll defoliate. So far so good. having a little trouble reversing the wrath rock, candy icy cuts. but I’m not worried. I have backups of the mothers and I have backups of those backups so I’ll definitely still be able to take another shot after seeing the results from this grow ….

Day 84 - June 25
June 25 - 09.30AM Trichomes still not ready at 50/50 milky to cloudy. Soil is still moist. Will water either late this evening or tomorrow morning. I suspect this will be the second or last watering before chop.
June 25 - 09.00PM Removed a dead leaf - I want to remove some of the dying leaves on the colas, as underside of plant has a beautiful purple hue to the leaves.
June 26 - 08.45AM Trichomes are starting to turn milky, with 60/40 milky to cloudy ratio. Will water this evening as pot is getting lighter + soil isn't as moist.
June 26 - 01.20PM Purple is here. I think it's time to chop tomorrow as I'm seeing more ambers. I'm noticing some bright green growth which I hope isn't the start of nanners.
June 26 - 01.20PM Watered 3L. Chop tomorrow.
June 27 - 00.00AM CHOPPED (Day 86).
. June 27 - 00.00AM Inspected detached calyx with strange (I suspect pistil) growth. Many amber trichomes found. Strange, given colas I inspected were all cloudy with no amber, but this calyx (located at centre of plant) had plenty of amber trichomes. Perhaps this is due to recieving a higher than expected DLI at hotspot of light.
. June 27 - 00.00AM Underside of Buds are underdeveloped in comparison - easily due to light blockage. I aimed not to defoliate as she entered flower, but perhaps with better LST and leaf tucking I could've produced more even yield.
. June 27 - 00.00AM Trimmed Fan leaves and mostly necrotic foliage - want to avoid bud-rot at all costs, but I may have over-defoliated.
. June 27 - 00.00AM Drying hanging upside down with oscilating fan above (2/10) and one beneath driving air toward a wall of the tent. There's also an extraction fan at the top of the tent.
. June 27 - 00.00AM Humidity 60-62% & Temperature 64-66F.
. June 27 - 02.45PM Temperature is rising in the tent to 69F, inside a sealed bathroom room. Sealed Bathroom offers no light leakage, but I might need to open the door and allow light + cool air in.
. June 27 - 03.45PM Moved tent out of bathroom to get cooler air. Tent temperature was just under 70F. I've likely lost some flavour over a few hours - but now that it's in a cooler environment (with slight light leakage) - things should improve.
. June 27 - 03.45PM Temperature & Humidity are 66F and 60% respectively.
. June 27 - 04.00PM (16 hours since chop)
. June 27 - 04.05PM Added portable cooling unit to intake, this should drop temperature by a degree or two hopefully. Ensured Fans weren't directly in path of buds.
. June 27 - 04.30PM Humidity is 66%, I've increased oscilating fan speed to 5/10 to combat this.
. June 27 - 08.50PM Humidity is 60%. Temperature is 66F
. July 1 - 09.00PM Branches still bend - not snap. Will trim and start cure process tomorrow. Leaves shrivelled up.
. July 2 - 10.00AM Rough Trim, and placed into cure jars. 58% RH and 60% RH Probably should have harvested last night. Will maintain RH in jars via burping. Roughly 2oz (56g) of bud harvested.

Ai Gude Growmies was ein Wurzel Porno!
Was mir aufgefallen ist bevor es umtopfen losging war das bereits Wurzel aus dem Topf Moos von den Boden Platten in ihrem Griff hatten.
Die Umstellung von Mineralisch auf Organischen Dünger scheint ohne Probleme zu funktionieren nur 1 Verfärbtes Blatt von unten sehe ich als normal.
Die Wurzel Zone sieht einfach aus wie aus dem Bilderbuch! Da ich sie auch seit der Austrocknung nur noch mit Wasser gegossen habe mit abgedeckten Topf Oberfläche aus Pflanzenmulch und Resten für Bodenleben und Wasser speichern.
Diese Zombie Kush hält bis jetzt jedes Wetter aus und ist extrem Widerstandsfähig. Erhalten habe ich ihn Test Steckling von Krumme-Gurken als selektierten Purple Pheno.
Ob diese Schönheit im Herbst lila wird oder nicht ist mir bei der Widerstandsfähigkeit schon Fast egal wenn die Blütezeit auch so weiter geht.
