4/6/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 1- Last week in VEG, They are all looking amazing and no worry about stretch when I flip Next Saturday they are indica and I have more than 50% of distance from the top of the plant to the lights with a little more I can raise the lights if necessary. So going to really just enjoy this last week of VEG, and get my Cloning equipment ready. I will be taking 2 cuts for each this is also a PHENO hunt for HWG and he not only has the prize for the winner but he also has an additional bounty on a cut of the winner. I did have to take some from around the edges to keep them from touching. 4/7/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 2- Didn't do anything today but watch them grow.. They will be getting a really good flip trim and clean up for clone material on Friday/ Saturday. 4/8/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 3- Couldn't even get a picture of the #1 at first too much Foliage throughout.. So I had to clean that up and make sure they all still have some separation before flip. 4/9/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 4- Huston we almost had an issue.. I looked at my Res and she was in desperate need of 10 gallons to get her through until next water change on Saturday. So I added 10 gallons and the Nutes. I added 10 Gallons of Water I added the following Nutes: CalMag= 1.00Mil/Gal= 10Mil FloraMicro = 5.4Mil/Gal= 54Mil FloraGro= 4.2Mil/Gal= 42Mil FLoraBloom= 4.6Mil/Gal= 46Mil 4/10/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 5- Had to giver them a huge clean up today I couldn't even see the numbers in the first pic. I am also worried that #1 and #3 really, really are getting huge over the last few days.. starting to think I should have flipped them this past Saturday.. The interesting things is even though this is an Indica Strain, I might have to super crop just to keep them off the lights. The joys and sorrows of RDWC and timing. 4/11/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 6- Even though Flipping in Two days almost wish I would have gone at Week 7. I am really worried about #3, #1 and #2 are huge and when I put them in flower they are going to stretch out 4/12/2024 - Vegetation Week 8 Day 7- Day of Work.. Lots of Work.. I gave all three a Cloning/Flower cleaning.. all three got cleaned up top Inside and bottom, I took 2 cuts of each to see which one come out on top then I will kill off the other cuts once I have a winner in flower. I clean up this thoroughly before I flip because it reduces the work load on the next major clean up I do on Week 4 of Flower.and they are so much taller that it is going to be a pain in the ass to maintain canopy space for #3, we will see how it goes and adjust as necessary..

Started to cover the entire greenhouse in a bag of foil every night in order to flip to flowering, starting with 48 hours of darkness. Also did some defoliation to let through more light.

Day 126. Really day 90 from seed, part of Control Garden. Amazing how they Bulk, 3 weeks of veg only, crazy strain ! If i ever wanted anything from this strain, she was like "Let's do it ! " 8 sisters were amazing, now i used last two biggest beans and those had no training, no light, nothing, but went into absolute overdrive smells amazing, branches hard to hold while trimming ... Love them, maybe this time taste will be better, different nutes used ... Its so funny to hear branches slowly bending and cracking under own weight with no support left ... Amazing sound for grower ;)) Control Garden is an absolute success even with Strawberries hermie part .. Cure day. 250 g total. Insane for 3 weeks veg, one cola lost to budrot, no direct light and early harvest which led to a bit airy Monster Bulk buds, she could make 150 easy without budrot and one more week of flower ... Will update on night shift ;) Day Unknown. Decided to try out finally last girls for diary records, but ... After a month of intense cure buds got angly/pyramid type forms ... ????? Any idea ? First two weeks moved at least twice a day.

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..

The smell is pretty pungent and skunky. With a citrus smell if you squeeze the stem. Started the flush this week pretty excited for the harvesting. I'm at the 9th week of flowering. And I think 10 should be enough. I wanna thank @TheBudWhisperer for helping me with all my questions

Buds are really fattening up. Now comes the difficult part, deciding when to start the flush and then when to harvest. With likely warming days, quite likely an early harvest is on the cards so I can avoid curing in a hot tin shed. Closely monitoring the extended forecast to hopefully harvest at the perfect time as all will be wasted if curing in a 30c tent. At the moment due to a changing forecast its possible I will only achieve a 5 day flush, and have 3 days to cure in mild temps. Unfortunately from then it looks.like things seriously heat up, if extended curing is required then likely I'll bring in side the house in mason jars during the heat of the day then cure further on the drying rack in my tin shed till during the cooler evenings until ready. No. I know this isn't ideal but I've done this previously and always ended up with good.buds just way more effort that's for sure. This being a secret grow has additional challenges that's for sure. My wife, and 2 teenage kids have no idea what goes on in this shed as to their knowledge only garden tools are stored here, if anyone in my house did gardening apart from me then this grow would be impossible that's for sure

This was a little sad week. Since I dont have a properly dehumidifier, the humidity raised and botrytis appeared... Added a directly wind (24h/7) on my plants and removed all bud with botrytis

More Incredible Developments this week! I started adding General Hydroponics Bud on the first watering of the third week of flower - it has resulted in some surprisingly big and fast growth over the past week. You can see from going to the previous week and this one, the bud sites seem to just getting fatter and searching out for their neighbors above and below them with the white pistils - I know I keep saying this but as a lifetime cannabis user, this is the first time I have had the opportunity to watch my own garden closely through the entire plants development and life cycle, and so far this is VERY exciting and entertaining to see the developments each day. The topping and LST techniques I used (no experience, only watching videos and researching) have resulted in my plants taking on almost a bowl or basket shape, where the outside branches have reached far far above the middle canopy during their "final stretch" or first week or two of flowering. Now, the middle of all of my plants have numerous smaller bud sites that are developing - I am looking forward to how the lower canopy buds develop! I am currently watering them every other day - 8 cups of water each. This past week I increased their water intake from 6 cups to 8 cups - So far I am seeing no sign of stress in any way shape or form - only VERY happy plants working on bulking up on their flowers. I plan on letting them do their thing and working on maintaining their environment so it stays consistent. Definitely a big increase in smell this week - the Cherry Gorilla x Sol Sonic seem to be moving along and bulking up a little more than the GMO. When picking leaves off the GMO, I can already start to smell and recognize hints of the tremendous gas garlic stank I have been looking forward to - Appreciate the Likes and Follows! Look forward to more photos and developments from my First Grow :)

9/17 Add new Supplement for the soil made from the obvious, tilapia farm. Fish Sh!t - Zona is the test case for it, looking for as much culture as we may affordably get. https://fishheadfarms.com/ for particulars Looks good so far just seeing how it goes before using it elsewhere. Liquid used as any nuet Fed today : Fish Sh!t - 3ml / Bio-Bloom - 18ml / Bio-Grow - 5ml / Final Top dressing of Happy Frog Phosphorus booster 2 tbs scratched in 1 inch / 1 Gal water 9/20 A little sun today enough to dry the buds well enough. Clearing out a tent tomorrow and getting her some light during the bad weather. Still think a week or so off, lot of plants harvesting this month. 9/22 Due to the best we can hope for is 20% sun today she is moved under the lights in the big tent. Can stay there about a week and hope this mess clears by then.

😴This week has not been full of events. After severe defoliation and transfer to flowering, the plant gradually came to its senses, overgrown with foliage and grew by 3 floors. It still eats well, there are no visible problems. 👉Solution: Water 170ppm, 8l Silicon 4 ml CalMag 2 ml Micro 7, Gro 7, Bloom 5.25 pH Down 5.5 ml Total 753, 5.6 🙌The plant quickly absorbs nutrients at the time of pre-flowering, so the amount of substances in the solution quickly dropped from 730 to 600 ppm, I added back to 750, next time to 800, and finally reached 900 ppm in the week. I really like the intensity of the absorption of substances, it promotes active growth and mass gain, which is what I need!

What an awesome thing to walk in on starting off week three all the girls were praying and just getting so fat, I really need to strip some fan leaves off the mom. They look great, the smaller cuts definitely aren't as good as the 4-6" cuts are, they were MAYBE 3-4" cuts and pretty small, but they are extras anyways so it doesn't matter, just seeing what they do. I'm excited for them to have all this space to stretch out when I pick up another light. Last day of week three and I couldn't be happier, I absolutely have to cut thicker clones , these smaller ones all got a bulbous base? Not sure what that's about but we will see how they develop. They are extras anyways but still nice to figure it all out.

Unfortunately I had to harvest the BADAZZ-CHEESE (=BADAZZ-KUSH x CHEESE) from BIG BUDDHA SEEDS early, because of looking bud-rot. The plant needed at least another 10 days to finish, she still had plenty of white pistils and would have gained in harvest weight and also produced more trichomes, if given more time. The final harvest weight of 31 gram dried bud, was still a VERY GOOD RESULT seen the circumstances. The buds are dank and have lots of trichomes, all in all a VERY NICE KUSH/CHEESE VARIETY!

On day 15 I gave her 33cl compared to 25cl/3days as usual. Also expand her surface of watering like that she can make some flat roots. On day 18, 4th and last feeding on this dosage. As for now, the idea's to wait before starting train.

Die letzten Woche bleibt es nun mit dem Klima noch schwierig! Die Luftfeuchtigkeit und Temperatur im grünen Bereich zu halten mit sehr hohen Außentemperaturen….. der neue große externe Entfeuchter ist in Betrieb genommen ….er macht seinen Job ! Der Externe Entfeuchter im Vorraum entfeuchtet jeden Tag zwischen 5-7 Liter! Diese Woche eine minimale Entlaubung gelaufen …. Diese Woche gab es nach dem fluchen mit canna flush keine Nährstoffe mehr ….ich habe die Pflanzen nochmal mit 40 l gespült….der ec im drain wurde danach gemessen …. Danach immer noch 1,1-1,2…. 3 Tage gewartet und noch mal mit 40 l gespült…. Danach dann ec 0,7 so bleibt es nun…. Den ph habe ich beim letzten flushen auf 7 gesetzt da die wurzeln nichts mehr transportieren sollen…. Der Herbst muss schnell her 😁( 1 mal als erstes geflusht mit Canna flush mit 15 l pro Pflanze) Die tricome sagen das alles fertig ist. Ich warte noch bis das Substrat ausgetrocknet ist und dann wird sofort geerntet .zum abreifen auf 70 % runter gefahren , Nebeneffekt ist, geringere Temperatur im Zelt und das ist gut… Tage der Keimungsphase = 4 Tage Tage in Wachstum = 52 Tage Tage in der Blüte = 68 Tage Gesamt = 124 Tage Wachstum h (in einer Woche)= 0 cm 2 mal in dieser Woche mit Purolyt Mischung 1:25 besprüht Lichtstärke: 75 % PPFD: ca. 800 umol Lichtabstand: 35 cm Std Tag/Nacht: 12/12 Temperatur Tag: ca. 25,5 Grad RLF Tag: 55% Temperatur Nacht: 21 Grad RLF Nacht: ca. 55 % VPD Wert: ca. 1,0 PH Wert Wasser/Düngelösung: 5,7 -7,0 EC Wert: 0,7-1,2 Ventilator Oszillation: Stufe 1 Befeuchter: Aus Entfeuchter: an Bewässerung: manuell alle 3 Tage geflusht Purolyt Besprühung: 2 mal Controlling: Grow Control Dünger: Canna Coco Licht: Pro Emit Vollspektrum Abluft: EC Carbon Active 750 m3

beginning of week 2. they are all doing well, up potted once and they immediately took over the new fabric pots. i think I may go up to 1 gallons before I put them in their final airpot 3 gallons, depending on my work schedule. did upload a timelapse but the file got a bit corrupted. good enough anyway everything seems to be going well except I really can't decide how I'm going to grow these plants (structure-wise) and it's getting to the time where I need to decide. I've had awesome results with LST, quad line, just topping and some light training, SCROG. Really can't decide what to do here but I'm sure it will come to me. Temp and humidity have been super consistent which is awesome. I have a bunch of new stuff coming in the mail from AC Infinity, a new controller that will allow me to program day/night, right now I manually adjust it on my phone before I go to bed with the Elitech controllers. Also a new exhaust fan because the bearings in mine are shot and it's super loud, two 6" oscillating circulation fans, and a new commercial humidifier.
