This week plant 1 has continued to surge ahead of the other girls, where as plant 4 and the subject of time lapse is the runt of the family. I determined that my watering system is not equally distributing the lifeblood for the plants properly and as such, some are getting more than others. I have cut back the schedule and manually watering them as needed using an old fashioned soil tester to determine which ones get extra. I believe that plants 2 and 3 were not getting enough water, 1 is just right, and 4 is too much. Check back next week to see if things continue to improve. I did some topping on plant 1 and some LST on plant 2 this weekend. I will watch them for the coming week. Plant 1 also seems to be spreading out on its own, so we will see what the extra topping will do for it. Although I kept the schedule the same, I also turned on the bloom lights to see if that would help with the plants stretching out more this week. It uses more power, but hopefully it will help the girls by giving them extra energy to stretch.

Suffered from nute burn and tacoing which i think came from me having light too close and mixed ith high temps outside i think made it 1x worse, did flush and halved nutrients see how they react

So close to ready, I probably could take her down now, but my thinking is that since this is a cbd strain, I'll leave her longer and get more of that couch lock. Flushing her so giving 0 nutrients, only phdown. She is in the garage more than she is outside because the weather is so bad, so I improved her accommodation, put her under a couple of sky100s and surrounded with some reflective material I have, bundled the buds as close as possible to get more lights concentrated.

She was the second to pop up (and purple punch earlier that day) I won鈥檛 be topping any autos this run! I will be only low stress training until scrog and then I鈥檒l high stress train if necessary! I鈥檝e given the first feed today of biobizz (doing fastbuds organic the other 3 synthetic) my aim is to keep the veg period vigorous! As a great veg equals great bloom! All other

Another great week, saw some great bud production and stacking. All great signs of a good yield. Increased the bloom nutrients to accommodate the plants demands during this intense growth spurt, while making sure they are balanced with a straight phd water feed to help break up any deposits that may be accumulating. When I use just water, I鈥檒l water until I see about a 15% runoff, and test the ph of the runoff, should be within your 5.8-6.3 range. I鈥檝e got lots of airflow keeping things moving to help prevent PM and pests. After every feed, I鈥檒l spray a mixture of water, a drop or two of dish soap, and some type of essential oil, around the base of the pots and tent basin as part of my pest management/protection. I have yet to have any type of pests, despite growing in an unfinished basement situation. Happy Gardening 馃嚚馃嚘鉂わ笍馃憡

Hey all! 馃檶 It's me again, after a hiatus I'm back in action and this time I'll be growing two plants! The strain is Green Gelato from Royal Queen Seeds and the two babies are going to be Pistachio and Matcha, two green ice creams flavors to match with the strain name! 馃構 I started soaking both seeds in a glass with water for 24 hours to hydrate them (I forgot to take a photo of this!) and after that I placed them in a jiffy pellet. After some days Pistachio was the first one to show while Matcha was still being a little behind. During this I made a small mistake, instead of opening the cardboard box where I placed the seeds I left the baby plant inside so she grew a bit too much during the night... ooops! But nothing too serious (I got it fixed after moving her into a cup). Some days after Matcha appeared but it seemed she was having a small issue, it seemed like part of her shell was still stuck to her so I helped by removing it and then she started to grow normally once again. Right now I moved Pistachio to one of those red cups and I used some mycorrhizas on her! Glomus mosseae and glomus intraradices to be more precise! Next week I'll be doing the same with Matcha. 馃槉 I also started making a timelapse (I think it looks awful haha but it helps to see how Matcha started to recover!) I hope you'll all enjoy the photos! 馃槂 See you all next week!

This week has gone fine except for one thing which I鈥檒l come to later on. Still stretching, canopy par level is 900 on average and I don鈥檛 have any way of getting the lights up further. Hoping the intense light will slow the stretch down a bit but we will have to wait and see. Worst case I鈥檒l have to dim the lights down a bit. That leads me onto the mystery of this week. The nearly dead plant. I have no idea why it has gone so limp. You can kind of see on the photo lapse how quickly it collapses. Incase it鈥檚 some kind of disease I鈥檒l give it another day in there. If it doesn鈥檛 recover I鈥檒l have to pull her out and try to train the other plants over her empty spot so I don鈥檛 waste any light. EC is around 1.2-1.5 atm, the highest dose I鈥檒l be giving them will be week 4 and 5 of flower when the buds seem to do the most weight gains (visually). Canopy is actually quite even if you overlook the hole in the canopy, maybe a couple inches between highest and lowest. Anyway, thanks for checking in guys, if anyone has any thoughts/comments about the dead plant let me know as I鈥檓 struggling to find answers online. 馃槉

Yeah one of the 00 kush is coming full purple for the cold she get in the night time. I'm starting to flush the 00 kush and 1 of the Banzai Punch. Red spider is gone, some whiteflies resist but all under control.

These buds are fattening and looking lovely. The plants are getting heavy. It's starting to smell. Amazing. All is going well. The plants are soaking up all the nutrients and I just added a automatic drip system. Can't wait to see how it works for them. We're getting so close to harvest. They smell amazing. They look amazing and they know they're going to taste. Amazing. Happy farming family just

Not a lot to update the seedlings have came up out the soil at this point they are still to small to tell any visible differences. I started all the seeds from all 10 packs and and I put 26 of them in soil I now have about 20 of them left I still have atleast one left if every strain. I just kept the 20 plants that all started off at the same time it鈥檚 so much easier when there is not some plants behind from the rip. In a few days I will pick out the best one from each of the 10 strains and toss the rest so sad there is a plant count here.

Did some high stress training on the painkiller and honey cream maybe it was a bit late for that but I wanted to really make sure that they have a the space they need. Autumn is here and it did start with a lot of rain, I'm a little worried about mold if it's raining non stop. The temperatures dropped down to 10c掳 in the night and humidity is high, so fingers crossed that no mold will appear. The honey cream finally started to flower properly but she's still around 3 weeks behind the other two strains. The painkiller is getting closer to the finish line, she still has around 2/3weeks to go though. All plants received a lot of thining out removed some branches and leaves, lolipopping style hope this help increase the airflow and prevent mold. Pictures made while it raining.

By now I would have expected to have already collected. The plant continues to develop the flowers in an anomalous way, in fact they do not close, and they are growing 'in dots', along the 'tentacles' of the flower. I think the cause is light, mainly.

12/27/21 Start of Week 4 , Growth has started again from transplant , Watered 1ltr of Nutrient water to each.12/30/21 watered 1250ml of nutrient water each, plants have really started growing again. Thinking from germination threw week 2 both the ts600 and the ts3000 were too close and too powerful , just from my observation of growth, something to try on my next grow. Added video and pictures.
