Week 7 is over. They are more than ready for flowering. In 3-4 days I'll have free bloom tent and will transfer them there and flip to 12/12. Most of them are doing very good - slight VPD issues but will be corrected. Strawberry Cough still the biggest even after double topping and bending. Still looks weak-ish though. Stems and branches are very flexible comparing to other plants. Grandpa's Cookies #6 are a failure. I'll see but I probably will discard it. It's very underdeveloped - small, slender, willowy. Leaves are still weird - it didn't grow out of it.

-Flowers are starting to stretch -Lots of leaf growth, noticed white mold from poor circulation - did some defoilation to fight the random spot of white mold -just introduced liquid koolbloom - PK booster. First time using very excited to see if I notice any difference -able to finally get a handle on the nutrients - watering to run off - everytime and it has substantially changed the quality of my grow. Zero nutrient issued and run off is coming off at decent PPM - thinking of adding second scrog

Howdy, So this last week has been about learning, quickly. Plant 2 has been suffering from yellowing, I noticed that at first it was a darker green than plant 1 - (first signs of Mg deficiency I have since learned). As plant 1 was doing so well until a few days ago, I originally assumed that plant 2 was just a bit of a slacker. I think basically it is more susceptible to PH differences than plant 1. First mistake was not knowing about the benefits of PH range... What I did not know earlier in the week is that Mg and Ca are only absorbed efficiently at 6.0 and above, my OCD kicked in and I refused to let the PH wander above 5.7; as from what I have read in forums, 5.7 is the sweet spot. Main lesson from last week is that I'm not going to be so anal about PH levels, I will let the PH rise to 6.3 before I drop it back down to 5.7, this will give the plants and window of time to grab hold of some well deserved CalMag before I drop it back down so it can retrieve some Mn and P if it needs any. My plants told me they were in need of Calcium over a week ago, but I naively thought that maybe I spilled a droplet of water on one of the leaves, and that caused it to burn. As I was adding CalMag+ to the solution when I replenished the reservoir. My second mistake was panicking... After realising above, I bombed the nutrient solution with 35ml of Cal Mag, bringing up the PPMS to 460, this subsequently gave the strongest plant nutrient burn. On top of this, I gave both plants a foliage spray during lights out with some diluted CalMag as well. So anyway, the main thing I have learnt is when the plants are ill, its probably best to take it easy, do a res swap at the very worst and concentrate on my PH levels first before throwing more variables into the fray. Positive notes: Plants 1 & 2 is now working on their 5th node, I know I am technically allowed to top at this point, but I am going to wait until they are working on their 7th before doing anything, this way I will be able to tell if the new growth is looking healthy, and my investigations are correct. I have now installed a Hailea 150a, with a submersible pump, this is now keeping the reservoir at 20ºc and its keeping the nutrients well mixed, I'll post a video later this week showing the set up. The roots at the top look a little dark, but I have done a sniff test and they don't smell at all, I think it is just where some of the tea has built up where the bubbles meet the air. Roots do seem rather large, maybe they have stretched so far looking for Mg and Ca :P Decided against increasing PPMS, going to do another week, so 5 weeks veg, gives the ladies some time to recover. Trimmed the burns off of leaves mainly so I can keep a track to see if damage is continuing. Anyways, I hope the above makes sense and draws other newbies attention towards PH ranging for hydro; I have posted a pic which shows the PH range for each important element. Thanks! 😊

"Hi, I received my pH meter this week, so from week 6 onwards, I'm aiming for a pH value of 6.0 - 6.5. This week, I noticed that the plant in the small pot received too much fertilizer. The other two 7.5-liter fabric pots also received double the recommended amount according to the feeding schedule, but they don't show any signs of over-fertilization."

She's an octopus full of very stinky sweet nuggets man!. I'm in love with this black cherry punch #1 she's in a 30l pot and her performance has been amazing. Very happy with this lady. The aroma of the flowers is suuper sweet very like cherry and like strawberries. Such a pleasure to grow this Cherry pie 🥧🍒 cross 🔝💎👨‍🌾 PD: I had to tie some of the colas cause they were just Fallin cause of the weight of the nugs. A set of 2 branches broke because of the weight of the nuggets so I chopped it down the 2 colas and put them in the drying room.

8-22-25. 6 weeks today. Plants are growing well as they transition into flower. They have put on a lot of height the last few weeks but I suspect that that will slow down soon. Starting Monday they will get their first flower nutrients. Looks like they made it through the hottest part of the summer so hopefully we turn a corner and get cooler temperatures. I appreciate all the feedback and interest from everyone. Happy growing !! 8-23. Found some space age style plastic plates at the local 2nd hand store. Wasn’t trying to go stylish but seem to match the decor. Hope they aren’t too gaudy 😂 8-25. Got fed cn veg and flower today. Seems to be taking everything well. Being that they get sun then grow light 24/7 they are very thirty. I will give big bloom and some molasses in a few days. I’ll also do a top dressing of bonemeal. Starting smell a little but so far so good. 8-26 plants been thirsty but it’s 94 outside so that to be expected. Gave a light top dressing of bonemeal with saved rain water. Still warm in grow room at night but little by little it’s cooling down at night. Shorter days help too

Es sind noch ein paar cm dazu gekommen und ich bin mit der Blütenentwicklung recht zufrieden. Der Bereich um die Blüten ist wundervoll bepudert. Das Wetter bleibt wechselhaft bis schlecht! Das Wetter bessert sich, leider habe ich einen massiven Befall von Trauermücken, Nematoden sind bestellt.

Semana 4 floración Fase: Máximo Engorde Estructural / Fin de Crecimiento Foliar ​El cogollo central se muestra denso y maduro estructuralmente, en pleno ciclo de ganancia de peso. La cubierta de resina es total y profusa, confirmando la alta eficacia de los protocolos de estimulación. Esta semana marca la última aplicación foliar de Algas Marinas y Aminoácidos, así como la segunda y última aplicación de Ácido Salicílico, para dar un impulso final a la producción de resina antes de suspender tratamientos foliares y evitar riesgos fúngicos en la floración avanzada. El control de drenaje y la medición de pH y PPM del lixiviado continúan siendo críticos para asegurar la salud radicular y la eficiencia en la absorción.

Well what can I say. I messed up big time with this one. The grow was scheduled to finish around day 100 and 3 out the 4 plants where done by then. Due to over stressing this one and over watering I completely messed it up. Trying to keep her going past the day 100 mark was a mistake because I have only got a small quantity for hash. Lesson learned on this one.

My GG is safe to say that she is frankensteins bride...this past week has been the most stressful for both of us...from breaking the second main that grew from the first topping resulting in me topping it again, to thinking i was getting early stages of WPM so i milk solutioned both plants, pots, the tent..to realizing that the TG def had a copper deficiency which i solved with a flush with nutes and grow big foliar spray and is now showing great healthy growth...def a learning experience...dont let anyone tell u its easy haha...and if ur finicky and have adhd, just let the plant be, hardest part yet 🤦‍♂️ also did a pretty heavy defol and screen comes up within a week.

Hi everyone. Time for another update. Day 6 since I flipped lights. All ladies looking healthy, no stretching at all so far, might take the net down after week or two since I’m keeping them low. I also have few more clones of royal gorilla, danceworld and random autogorilla seed sitting in my veg tent. I’m very happy with CMH system too.

Hello everyone! This week the wedding cake has finally started to flower and it is in the pre-flowering period. After the gorilla skittles started flowering as early at the 6 week, the wedding cake continued to grow insanely for 2 weeks and grew about 35cm in two weeks!!. She finished all the space in the closet and currently the top of the plant is 30 cm from the lamp, I have no more room in the closet to lift the lamp. I tried using Scrooge and Deployment but it was not enough. The fiming method did not stop the growth enough. This week I did another cleaning of the leaves and flower areas that I am not interested in. Hope everything will go smoothly!
