Things have been going well as I continued to train the stretching girls to the side of the pots, bending and adding ties where needed. Pheno 1 started showing signs of over watering showing droopy leaves as well as what I think is either nitrogen, magnesium or iron deficiency. I'm leaning towards a iron deficiency since the yellowing is on the newest growth at the top. I think this was caused from giving her too much top amendments in her last feed causing a pH imbalance. What I would usually do is just give her a little flush if this is the case but instead I decided to repot her and the other Pheno into their last 19 litre/4 gallong pots as both were drinking pretty quick and I wanted to avoid over watering again. The rootballs looked beautiful when I transplanted them so I was pretty happy with their progress! This round I've ditched the coco as I had way too many issues with it in the past, including knats and PH issues. In this round I've gone with Biobizz light soil which I added some fish blood and bone, earthworm castings, bat guano and then watered with water and liquid seaweed. I love organic growing :). I do intend on using Coco again but I'll need to do some research on some trusted brands. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know! Pheno 2 is showing signs of recovery but I'd love the input from others about what the deficiency could be? I got my new bubblebags today which is making me want to flip to flower so I can get to harvesting and making some bubble but I'm going to be super patient this round. I want these girls to fill up as much of my 4 x4 tent space as possible. Until next week! โœŒ๏ธ

Day 56: These 3 girls are finishing out. Cyco nutrients did awesome for me! I found a top with some bud rot beginning to start so I lopped that off. It was not much, but I got it early (learned first hand in the Gorilla Girl grow). Humidity has been higher these days. Buds are turning slightly purple. Decent amount of sugar on the buds now. Trics are mostly cloudy, very few amber. Most pistals have withered and calyx look swollen. Smell is beginning to give a cakey-gas undertone to the up front scent of overripe cantaloupe across all 3 plants. There is a tiny bit of pine. I need a cell with a better camera :( Some more days of water and Flawless Finish then the chop.

4/18 - 4/20: She's coming along nicely! 4/22: I FIM'd her today and gave her about 20oz of water with cal-mag, humic acid, and boomerang and foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. Later, I rinsed off all the plants with a stiff stream of filtered water in preparation for tomorrow. 4/23: Today was BoomBoom Spray day! I just love how visible the growth is the day after a BoomBoom Spray day!๐Ÿ˜ฒ Tomorrow I'll spray her down with Axiom Harpin a|b proteins..she'll start flowering soon and I want her hitting her stretch with mega-vigor.๐Ÿ‘ˆ 4/24: I did a foliar application of Harpin proteins and fed her with about 1/4-gallon. ๐Ÿ˜Š I removed all the cool white and blue light, and turned on the 3rd set of QB's and bud boosters so she will get her stretch on- I also reduced her photoperiod to 20 hours so she can start getting some beauty sleep. I also tied down her apex cola today. 4/25: Didn't have much time today, but I looked in on her. It's getting crowded in here, so I'll remove all the photos (clones and seedlings) tomorrow. That's it for week 3-

What to say in the end, even though things were not ideal, the outcome is better than expected. ๐Ÿ™ My only regret is that it has not reached its full potential, although the buds are beautiful, dark purple, full of terpenes that stick to your fingers like honey when you touch them. ๐Ÿ˜‹ The outcome is in the end 56 g. which is more than it looked before the harvest. ๐Ÿ’ช She dried along with her two roommates Purple Punch for a total of 14 days. My wife, although not a consumer, enjoys trimming which suits me great because I can take photos during that time. After trimming, we put the dry tops in jars where they matured for another 20 days. Sometime in the future I would definitely repeat Watermelon, I know it can do even better. Itโ€™s great that itโ€™s summer, it fits perfectly with the Watermelon joint on an afternoon summer evening with a book and the sea. I hope those who visited the diary got useful information, and to all who commented and liked, thank you for your support. See you soon with new diaries.

Left these ones out a bit to long and not nearly enough love, so they suffered a bit but that's ok. I am going to experiment and try water curing the buds. First time ever using this method and I think it will make a good little project. No idea how to it will turn out, been reading it will remove most of the smells and that sucks but the smoke is very clean and light. Only time will tell. take about 7 days to fully water cure. bud washing helped get rid of a lot of extra that stuck to them outside.

Plants are looking happy and healthy. The worms are also still alive. Ive started tot give the plants 6 liters of water every 4-5 days. Because i'ts such a big container the soil needs alot more time to dry out. Since I started giving bigger amounts of water I see much more worm activity in the top layer of the soil.

Unfortunately I had to go away for a couple days, so the babies didnโ€™t get nutes for a few days - they did get watered though. Have added BIG BUD in to the mix now; so the plants should be getting that extra PK they are craving. Other than that, the stretch continues and weโ€™ve seen about 8-12 cms growth in places. Other than that, everything going as good as can be! Thanks for reading! ๐ŸคŸ๐Ÿป

Because of how early I topped her, the base was very dense with foliage so I did some defoliation. You can see the four main branches (2 of which were topped) and the central FIM with its supercropping scars in the 4th pic. Still running a 1000w MH bulb at 50%. Looking at getting a SMLED/COB LED combo light to replace my cool tube and associated fans and ducting. Water level was down to 50%. I'll have to start topping up. July 04 I rearranged my setup a bit while switching the MH bulb for the HPS. I think next run I'm going to grow 2 autoflowers and stagger them and try to run a perpetual harvest. I'm going to try to stick with the HID lights if I can manage the heat effectively. It was working well when I had the 6" cooltube and the 4" carbon filter exhausting out the window, but now that the smell is more intense, I don't want any air going out except through the carbon filter. I've thought about running filter-->fan-->cooltube-->outside but they're different sizes so it would lose efficiency. I've also thought about running clean air from outside the tent through the cooltube and then outside as it was intended, but I just don't think that's going to work with the space. July 05 I noticed shiny spots on the leaves which seems to indicate I have thrips. I can't see any actual larvae even with my glasses on, but the sucked out spots are fairly distinctive and I can see small black particles that must be excrement. Temperature seems pretty good in there and humidity is ok at about 45%. I have some peppermint Dr Bronner's castile soap so I made a foliar spray of insecticidal soap by just pouring a few drops into a big spray bottle. Just worried about when to spray so I don't burn the plant. Just checked the reservoir and temp is 26c, PPM 860, Ph 6.5. I'm going to add plain water and try to bring the Ph back down to 5.5. It's possible that what I'm seeing is due to the Ph being too high. I'm going to start checking the Ph at least every couple days. It's annoying to unclip all the training wires every time I open the reservoir. It's also not very convenient to fill it. It's at an awkward height. I like the 5 gallon bucket because it was easy to set up and understand but I might be better off with a different type of reservoir. 3:45pm I just sprayed the underside of one section of leaves, I'll see how that section does under the lights. My concern is that if I spray under the lights, it will burn, but if I spray at night, it could cause mold. Hopefully I can get away with spraying all the leaves once or twice a week and it will go away. July 06 She looks ok but I'm thinking it might be a Ph issue. Ph was 6.2 so I decided to just pitch the water and start again. I changed my method so I'm mixing the nutrients in the actual bucket the plant lives in and testing it there, instead of mixing in another bucket and pouring it into the DWC. Ph is now 5.7 and PPM 700. July 08 just noticed that RH is 70% when the lights come on. I feel like I'm going to need a solution for overnight humidity. Maybe dry rid bags. Rh is 60% after a couple hours. Leaf, solution, and substrate temp down to 24 which is nice. Ph is back up to 6.3 again! I pH downed some tap water to 4 and added that to the reservoir. July 09 Pistils just started coming out :) The Ph is still back up to 6.3 again but PPM is 750. I'm going to change the res again and lower the nutrient content a bit.

Week 3 in the Pink Rozay saga has been nothing short of epic, and I'm thrilled to spill the chlorophyll beans on all the exciting happenings. First things first โ€“ the big move. Our girl got a VIP ticket to the 16L final autopot. It's like upgrading from a cozy studio apartment to a spacious penthouse. The roots were rocking and ready for this next level of luxury. Now, let's talk numbers. TDS? Bumped it up to 490. pH? A cool 5.8. Water temperature? A perfect 21 degrees. It's like we're throwing a plant party, and everyone's invited! But the real magic happened in the soil. I whipped up a concoction that even Mother Nature would give a nod of approval. Picture this: a mix of super soil goodness, Aptus All-in-One pellets providing the NPK party essentials, Mycormix for that mycorrhizal fiesta, a mix of endomycorrhizae that's like the backbone of your plant's support system. Picture it as the plant's personal entourage, consisting of various species of endomycorrhizae. These fungi are fixed on a vegetal carrier, playing the role of bodyguards that feed and protect the fungi. It's a symbiotic relationship, with mycorrhizae enhancing nutrient uptake and the carrier ensuring their well-being. It's like having a team of nutritional bodyguards ensuring Pink Rozay's well-being, Micromix soil for micronutrient extravagance, and just to top it all off, a dash of Substrate Buffer Powder. It's like creating a nutrient symphony, where each element plays its part in harmony. Now, when it came time for watering, it was like orchestrating a liquid masterpiece. I unleashed the full schedule veg mix, and oh boy, did our Pink Rozay dance with joy. Regulator, the conductor of this symphony, containing Mono-silicic acid (Si) as a nutrient transporter, Boron (B) acting as a precursor to enhance calcium uptake and fiber production, and Molybdenum (Mo) making moves to shift nitrogen from lower to upper leaves. It's like a nutrient ballet, each element performing its unique role. CaMg-Boost, giving that extra boost of calcium and magnesium. All-in-One Liquid, the maestro of well-rounded nutrients, covers all the bases: Essential Elements: Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium, and Magnesium. These are like the fundamental building blocks, the ABCs of plant nutrition. Microelements: Boron, Molybdenum, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, and Copper. These are the plant's essential micronutrients, like the subtle brushstrokes that complete a masterpiece. Imagine it as a nutritional buffet, offering a variety of elements to satiate every nutrient craving Pink Rozay might have. Start Booster, the kickstarter for vigorous growth,It's not your ordinary nutrient supplement; it's a powerhouse containing: Organic Nitrogen Chelated with L-amino acids: Think of this as a protein-packed energy shake for your Pink Rozay. It provides the necessary organic nitrogen, fueling her growth with a burst of vitality. Microlife Biomass from Controlled Fermentation: It's like a microbial party, specifically invited strains gathered through controlled fermentation. These microorganisms are the VIP guests, promoting a healthy, thriving environment for your plant. Humic Acid from the Leonardite Layer: Extracted from the deep, dark layers of Leonardite, this humic acid is like the plant's personal spa day. It improves nutrient absorption, water retention, and overall soil structure, making the growing experience luxurious for your Pink Rozay. High-grade Fulvic Acid: The secret ingredient, like a master key unlocking nutrient absorption. Fulvic acid enhances nutrient transport, ensuring your plant gets the most out of every drop. Imagine it as a nutritional buffet, offering a variety of elements to satiate every nutrient craving Pink Rozay might have. And just to spice things up, a touch of Micromix drip, because why not add a little extra nutrient flair? And let's not forget the star of the show โ€“ the transplant itself. It's like Pink Rozay moved into a botanical mansion, complete with all the amenities a growing plant could dream of. Before I sign off, let me send a massive thank you to Aptus Holland for their continuous support. Your products are like the superhero squad of my grow room, ensuring my Pink Rozay gets the VIP treatment she deserves. And of course, a nod to F.O.G. - Future Of Grow, for illuminating our growing journey with that powerful Black Series 600W LED. The future looks bright, my friends! So here's to week 3, a chapter filled with growth, nutrients, and transplant triumphs. Until next time, keep on cultivating that green goodness!

-------------------------------------------- ~DUTCH PASSION OUTLAW AMNESIA~ -------------------------------------------- Outlaw Amnesia is a top quality old-school Amnesia Haze dominant Sativa that will appeal to both beginners and connoisseur growers alike. She is 80/20 Sativa/Indica with around 20% THC and is a cross of our Super Haze with a very special clone of Amnesia. The high is powerful and fast with a clear uplifting sativa high and a strong Haze accent. The taste is fresh, sour, strong and old-school Hazy. Outlaw will stretch more than most, she can triple in height during bloom, and grows well with the SCROG method. Although she can be harvested as early as 9 weeks, a full 12 week flower period may be required for best taste, yield and high. She grows well in all grow mediums with perhaps the best yields in hydro where yields of up to 500g/m2 are possible, classifying this as a high production variety. *description credit to Dutch Passion OUTLAW AMNESIA (DUTCH PASSION) FEMINIZED DATA SHEET Breeder: Dutch Passion Genetics: 20% Indica / 80% Sativa Parents: Super Haze x Amnesia Flowering Time: 11-12 weeks THC: 20% Yield (Indoor): 450-500 gr/mยฒ Height (Indoor): 50cm Available as: Feminized seeds Flowering Type: Photo-period Sex: Feminized *Specified by breeder when grown under ideal circumstances -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80โ„‰ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ WEEKLY UPDATES: 9/20- ๐Ÿ’ฅBOOM!๐Ÿ’ฅ Week Six of flower is here and my girl's in high gear, stacking her flowers and pumping out trichomes! Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72โ„‰. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance. 9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72โ„‰ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn. I'm keeping an eye on what appears to be a few seeds developing. I'm hoping they're just fat calyx's that haven't matured yet however there's a strong possibility that, due to a temperature fluctuation that was excessive (20โ„‰) may have caused her to stress and turn hermaphroditic... Fingers crossed! ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿคž 9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Six of flower in a couple of days and she'll be past the half-way point with the most exciting weeks yet to come! I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and Top Dressed her with 2 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, 1/2 cup Down To Earth Bio-Fish, 1/3 cup Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and 2 cups of Worm Castings. I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72โ„‰ and let her enjoy her meal! ๐Ÿ˜œ 9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 1.5g watering. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ™~

First day of week 7! So, flowering has clearly decided to start and things are looking well. I managed to correct the deficiencies with Sensi CalMag Xtra and she seems to be loving it. I guess we all make mistakes on our first grow but Iโ€™m enjoying all of the learning so far. She was in a terrible state a week ago and I thought I was potentially going to lose her. Still, she powered through and here we are. Nothing much to report, Iโ€™ll just get some nice shots of bud sites when she fattens up a bit more as we go through. Peace brothers and sisters โœŒ๏ธ Update 06/07: Took away quite a few leaves which were not providing much value (IMO) and sheโ€™s loved it, proper perked up and reaching high for the light. Today I also installed a little mini humidifier and it works a treat, makes it look super cool too ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ - Looking forward to seeing some juicy buds soon.

day22 video. now adding more pk booster than earlier weeks, should be done week 7-8 we will see day23 I start adding more pk, still will 4x more pk now. Some nice pics today, videos of each, frost on fan leafs, no issues other than pros: bridal frost on fan leafs+sugar, cons 6ft tall. I think I should have pumped more pk earlier into flower/pre Its cool. Adding 2tbsp soluble pk into 5gal vs quarter tbsp in beginning 22 days ago. I am feeding soluble pk, +3 pk soil conditioners and carbs every day. There is no water day. day 25 stacking up. been spraying old cs I made 3ish years ago to test, works on unrooted so I may potential cross. Bridal starting to smell like a mix between fresh watermelon, and lemon+lime or a citrus aroma.

These are some slow and steady girls ..They look closer to week 5 of veg however the reds (Osram) in the SP-3000 have made these very plants extremely strong/woody, they'll have no issue holding whatever weight may come. Temps have been outstanding lately, we couldn't ask for better conditions. We're still feeding these girls with nearly every watering and they're handling it very well. We started 15-20 solo cups of our own cross and have tucked them behind the Banger's, we'll likely turn the whole tent to flower after they break the soil. We'll probably introduce light bloom nutrients for the Seedsman stuff this week.
