Mandarin XL auto is doing good. I had to give tge solution a nutrition boost early week. It just was not strong enough for her. She is doing good. She is ready for a solution change very soon. I was hoping she would start transitioning first to go to blooming nutrition. Everything is looking good beside that nutrition problem. Thank you Medic Grow, Gen1:11, and Ganja Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Environment + Pests + Setup This week (at day 31) I decided to end the battle against fungus gnats. Even after almost three weeks of dried-out soil, dozens of adult insects could be seen, which told me that there were pockets of moisture that I coouldn't influence. Accordingly, I went back to the original plan I had outlined earlier: bring the system into balance and use sand and nematodes. Since I should no longer have any problems with low RH, I have also reactivated the exhaust fan, which lead to the values you can see above. Nutrients + Environment From the outset, the plants showed a slight nitrogen deficiency, which was evident in their rather pale, light green color. This is probably due to the fact that the substrate (until now) did not contain enough moisture to allow metabolic and decomposition processes to proceed efficiently. Directly after watering I got reassured that my choice was right and the soil still alive, healthy, and ready to 'get back to work': look at those springtails! Plants On day 30, I topped the plants. Both had already formed three nodes and started to develop healthy side branches at all of these nodes. So, according to my plan, I removed the main shoot, leaving enough space for the stump to encapsulate without damaging the healthy plant. I also removed one shoot from each of the middle nodes, as I don't want branches that already grow towards the center (the branches will grow towards the light anyway, and this way I can ensure that there is enough air circulation and room for expansion). Upcoming: Start of LST

Marker is thriving, enjoying its meals as usual. The only change is its delightful berry scent, rather than the expected gassy aroma. Keep up the good work, and let's see how its flavors develop further! 🌿🍇

Bud quality is amazing, tons of frost and very sticky. Plants didn't get big colas unfortunately it was more smaller buds everywhere but still turned out good. Very tasty, could produce lots of hash also.

RG #1: 51,11 Grams RG #2: 61,82 Grams RG #3: 42,96 Grams 155,89g and 300 Watt used in total. I also had the SQ #1 in my tent, with that one it's 196,87g total and i smoked some already while it was drying like i think maybe 20g, so keep that in mind. I hope the harvest will hold up until my next run and that i can top the results with my next run by a lot, i really want to get closer to 300g total. It has been pretty much exact 4 Months from germination to putting everything into the jars. I know it has been my first grow and i did some mistakes, but still im not very happy with the results after all that invested time and effort. Not enough yield, i expected to get more out of it with 300 Watts and even if it the weed me really high, the strain has many problems in my opinion. Sadly i let it dry for too long. Everyday i checked the stems and if they will break of still bend and sadly it seems like this method isn't really useful. I should have started way earlier to cut everything down and put it into jars. So its still ok but too dry, Without Boveda Packs i get like 45-50% Humidity in the jars, the Boveda Packs raise it up slowly to like 60% but i think this will hurt the end result when it comes to taste and smell, curing will be not happening or be very slow because of my mistake. When it comes to seeds, i did found like 30 more in total, most on sq1 and rq2 but it seems like sadly all got some. Its really not much more left of them and i think it was just one pollen sac which opened somewhere. Haven't found it even after cutting all down. This was my first trim job and i did it all on my own, i did like 1 1/2 plants on one day, like 12 hours with some smoke breaks in between. It was hell. Besides the weed i also got 4 packs of trim which i will use to make some butter and some dry sift from my trim tray.

I think I'm on track. About 4.5-5 weeks left for these to fatten up. One of the clan (Cappadonna) started herming so I got rid of him real quick.

I’m watering the 7 girls (minus Trainwreck 1) every other day with 15+ gallons of R/O water & week 4 bloom nutes between 6.2-6.5 PH and 1100-1500 ppm. Every third feeding is just water with molasses Sept.. 7 the day started with 15+ millimeters of rain and wind gusts over 50 km/h. A couple of girls got blown over but luckily no broken branches. Time to start tying down these pots geez. I was checking up on Super Skunk auto #2 while she’s been drying and unfortunately bud rot has taking over most of her so the entire plant has been trashed. FAK!😢😢😢😢😢 Sept. 8 it's been overcast and humid all day and noticed some more powdery mildew on some of the girls. 😩 Unfortunately temps overnight have been in the mid to low teens celsius which is not helping Sept.9 mixed a new concoction of 3 teaspoons baking soda & 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to 500 ml of water and carefully sprayed fan and sugar leaves trying best to avoid bud sites. Sept.10 powdery mildew seems to be under control although the baking soda concoction burned some of the white hairs on a few buds. Trainwreck 1 is on her final week of nutrients followed by a long flush. Sept.12 the last couple of days have been cooler than average and somewhat breezy. The girls are looking healthy and the colas are starting to put on some serious weight so I added a few more bamboo stakes and a bunch of ties for more support. 👌😁👍 Sept.13 started the day with almost 15 mils of rain (that's about 1 inch for you non-metric peeps)😄 Colas are getting way heavy😲 A couple more branches snapped on Blue Fire 2. Man I can't catch a break. I hope it doesn't stress her out too much. 🙏 Thanks for stopping by, hope to see ya next week👉 Cheers and happy growing👍

Week 8 Day 51 Ladys starting to fat up the buds, a bit slowly this time but it's OK. Lemon Kix is a super smelly one, she stinks like lemon haze with bubblegum. Followed by Trainwreck and Orange Sherbet, really smelly Orange Sherbet disappointed till now, the buds looking really fluffy. I know she's got another 4 good weeks maybe more, but at the same time my last Orange Sherbet looked like a completely another strain. All lady's starting to get hungry, bottom leaves getting yellow and some just fall off. But the top should last to 2-3 weeks more. Cinderella Jack stopped to stretch ( she's huge) and now focused on the bud production. I think she gonna produce some fat big buds. 😁 Day 54 Orangesherbet that's what you get when you don't pay attention to your lady 😕 she got a really bad lockout The pH must be off, gonna see how she responds in the next weeks. That's why the buds are so airy. Gonna water her with 6.5 pH and add some Batguano after that. Purple Punch showing also signs of some Def. But it looks like a normal Nitrogen Def, thats not a big problem, gonna give her some Batguano too. Day 56 Hmm the buds from Lemon Kix didn't fat up till now, I hope they don't produce fluffy buds cause right now it looks like that. Compared to Blue Dream all lady's far behind with the Bud production Orange Sherbet smells amazing good but also she don't fat up. I know this will took another 3-4 more weeks. Purple Punch is very healthy she shows no signs of stress, but she's extremely hungry for potassium, like my last one. Trainwreck looking good but also still behind with the bud structure, when I compare them to my last run, they are really far away from 70 days (germinate to harvest) this gonna go minimum till week 12 😩.

Saturday 16-11-24 , Flowering day # 53 week 8. Harvest day! Cut branches off plants & hung the 2 front plants off the light. Put scrog net back in with a large flyscreen laying on top, & spread branches from the back plant over it. This allows complete air flow around the buds. Running a single oscillating fan beneath pointing to the bottom. Temperature is around 24°C & RH is 55%

Note: Moisture and Temp readings are done in the mornings. Lights are on an automated 17/9 schedule unless stated otherwise. Drip water system waters 1 Liter every 9 hours. Quick Notes: I notice as I go into full-blown flower, the plants are starting to need less frequent waterings, especially North. The watering system overflows her pot often, and the AKs soils feel relatively damp before the auto-watering starts. All plants are stopping their growth also. North is the furthest into flowering and is starting to smell and get sticky, the microscope is showing trichome development also. 📏: AK1: 36 in (91.44 cm), AK2: 44 in (111.76 cm), North: 24 in (60.96 cm) Day 64 (Jul 29) - Manually watering today. All plants drinking a bit slower, especially North (probably had a 0.5 liter overspill). Refilling drip water system tomorrow to get a better pace for watering. 💧: Tap: 7.45 pH Adjusted with pH down. AK1: 1.5 liter (5.95 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 3 ml FloraBloom, 2.5 ml CalMag) ~1220 PPM AK2: 1.5 liter (6.05 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 1.5 ml FloraGro, 3 ml FloraBloom, 2.5 ml CalMag) ~1150 PPM North: 1.5 liter (x pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 2 ml FloraGro, 3 ml FloraBloom, 2.5 ml CalMag) 💦: 57% (37-67) - 🌡️: 27C (22-30) Day 64 (Jul 30) - Noticing Plants drinking slower. Soil not completely dry in the mornings as usual. Defoliated AK2 a bit more. Attempted to Supercrop but decided not to follow through (crushed main trunk between fingers without bending it over) Watered all plants and refilled drip water system with 14.2 liters. 💧: Tap: x pH Adjusted with pH Down. All: 14.2 liter (6.2 pH, 14.5 ml FloraMicro, 14.5 ml FloraGro, 33.5 ml FloraBloom, 33.5 ml CalMag) ~1250 PPM, ~2250 EC 💦: 49% (38-70) - 🌡️: 28C (20-30) Day 65 - Plants look healthy. Set drip System to water 1 liter every 9 hours. 💦: 38% (36-65) - 🌡️: 26C (20-29) Day 66 - Plants look healthy. 💦: X% -🌡️: xC Day 67 - Trimmed some leaves below. Humidity spiked unexpectedly, buying dehumidifier. 💦: X% (40-79) - 🌡️: XC (21-29) Day 68 - Humidity spike overnight. Manually watered AK1 & AK2, not North (didn't seem like she needed it). Looks like the plants are needing a bit less watering overall. 💧: Tap: x pH Adjusted with pH down. AK1: 1.5 liter (6.05 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 1.3 ml FloraGro, 2.3 ml FloraBloom, 2.3 ml CalMag) AK2: 1.5 liter (5.95 pH, 1 ml FloraMicro, 1.3 ml FloraGro, 2.3 ml FloraBloom, 2.3 ml CalMag) 💦: 45% (39-71) - 🌡️: 27C (20-29) Day 69 (week 9) - Humidity spike overnight. Set water system to water 1 liter every 11 hours. Dehumidifier came in mail, monitoring effectiveness throughout the day and tomorrow. Refilled water system and set to water 1 liter every 10 hours. All: 14.2 liter (6.2 pH, 14.5 ml FloraMicro, 14.5 ml FloraGro, 33.5 ml FloraBloom, 33.5 ml CalMag) ~1550 PPM 💦: 44% (36-70) - 🌡️: 26C (19-29)

5 years later putting some closure to this diary. The reason I stopped it 5 years ago is because of where I lived and thought I was going to get In trouble. Was able to go back and find the photos for this plant when harvested. Really enjoyed growing this and was one of my favorite highs I’ve ever grown. Got so high on it had to go to the ER one night LOL. God bless everyone!

Was a really nice plant to grow, though odd from day 1. Very strange leaf formations from the start and very slow during vegetation but still, very beautiful to look at, kind of weird awesome. The taste and smell are outstanding. Without a doubt a true beauty, this part of the harvest will be smoked alone and secretly, it just really is too good to share😂

02.11.'24 After 5 days of drying, this little girl who was a little bigger than a meter gave 950 grams and a little bit of popcorn...this picking was 870 and a little bit of popcorn, and 4-5 weeks ago during a storm, one branch broke, which yielded about 100, but let's say 80 for sure, a total of 950 grams of beautiful, huge, potent buds

Start of week 5! Plants are doing great! Still some P & K deficiencies showing, but overall the bud development is phenomenal on the blueberries and is coming along nicely on the super lemon haze. I am still feeding an extra 2 liters to the Slh, this time at full dosage of part A & B, this seems to have helped with this past week (4). The blueberry are super sticky and smell amazing!
