W9.D1(60) πŸŒΈβ°πŸŒŸπŸ‘€πŸ”§ I think the time has come to transition to flowering. 🌸 As I embrace this new phase, I have never done this by switching the lights ⏰ before, and I know that the standard is to switch to 12/12. However, I'd like to experiment with reducing the lighting by 30 minutes each day this week, aiming to reach 14/10. 🌟 This gradual approach will let us πŸ‘€ observe how our champion plant adapts to the changes with precision and care πŸ”§. 🌿πŸ”ͺπŸ“‰βœ‚οΈπŸ€² Likewise, I did not immediately remove the huge mass that has grown. 🌿 Instead, I'm choosing to wield Occam's Razor in a gradual manner, wielding the πŸ”ͺ blade carefully, to ensure the vitality reduction of the plant is gradual πŸ“‰ and gentle, not abrupt and harsh βœ‚οΈ. This method respects the living essence of the plant and aims for a cautious, nurturing approach 🀲, enhancing our chance to achieve the lush, vibrant bloom we're striving for. W9.D2(61) πŸ•ΆοΈπŸŒžπŸ“‰βœ‚οΈπŸŒ± Nothing special is happening. πŸ•ΆοΈ As the days continue, I am reducing the light 🌞 hours and gradually trimming the excess βœ‚οΈ, maintaining a steady focus on nurturing our 🌱 champion. πŸ€”πŸ’‘πŸŒΈπŸš«πŸŒΏ I'm not sure how much the stress from pruning parts of our girl might delay her transition to flowering. πŸ€” It's a delicate balance of stress πŸ’‘ and growth, where each cut 🚫 might impact her readiness to 🌸 bloom. πŸ βœ‚οΈπŸ€πŸ’ͺπŸ”— But in my cramped conditions, failing to trim the excess doesn't allow the strength to flow where it's needed. 🏠 Navigating through the tight spaces, each snip βœ‚οΈ boosts the vitality πŸ’ͺ of the remaining parts, ensuring the most vigorous growth links πŸ”— to the flourishing future we aim for. W9.D3(62) πŸ”„πŸ’§βž•πŸ”™ I've slightly tweaked the formula - removed B52 from H2O2 and added Bud Factor X. πŸ”„ In this ongoing experiment, B52's absence πŸ’§ is temporary as I explore the effects of introducing βž• Bud Factor X into our regimen. W9.D4(63) πŸŒ±πŸŒΏπŸŒŸπŸ”πŸ“¦ Bella is expanding, growing very robustly indeed. 🌱 With her vigorous 🌿 growth, she has already managed to find a gap on one side and attempted to grow out of the grow box. 🌟 Her ambition to explore beyond the πŸ” confines of her πŸ“¦ environment is both astounding and challenging. πŸ€”πŸ’‘πŸŒ±πŸ‘πŸŒŸ I'm not sure how I'll manage it, but the example set by @Chamomile with his compact yet extremely effective growing method is truly inspiring. πŸ€” While pondering this, the innovative πŸ’‘ approach taken by @Chamomile shines a light on potential solutions, giving me the confidence that even in tight spaces, 🌱 greatness can be achieved, and indeed, this example deserves a round of πŸ‘ applause for its efficiency and 🌟 brilliance. W9.D5(64) πŸ•’πŸŒžπŸŒ±πŸ‘€πŸŒΈ The light day has already been shortened by 2.5 hours, and, it seems to me, we can witness this transition into flowering firsthand. πŸ•’ Having adjusted the 🌞 light schedule, the plant is now undergoing a significant shift, and we 🌱 observe this change as it unfolds, moving towards the flowering stage 🌸 right before our πŸ‘€ eyes. W9.D6(65) πŸŒ±πŸ“¦πŸ”„πŸŒΏπŸ’š The grow progresses leisurely, filling the box with an ever-greater abundance of life. 🌱 As time πŸ”„ unfolds, our grow box πŸ“¦ becomes increasingly vibrant with 🌿 lush greenery, brimming with the πŸ’š essence of vitality.

-5/28/23 Start of Week --Week 10/Flower 4 -5/31/23 (Day 74/flower 25) --Observations: temperature is rising during the day and the night isn't dropping as low as I would like. Already starting to get clustered again. --Comments: seems to be okay with the increasing heat, don't see any problems yet and hopefully wont. shade leaves are starting to push their way into the middle area again, will try not to remove unless the become a problem. -6/3/23 (Day 77/Flower 28) --Observations: shade leaves still pushing their way into center, buds still growing and starting to form calxes. --Changes: will no longer be spraying after today, will also start giving more water --Comments: today is the last day for spraying this plant, watering will be increased to compensate. may have to remove some of the shade leaves pushing into the center area next week, will be extremely selective if I have to remove anything from this point on. lemon basil is starting to tower over the cannabis, will be removing some to give space between them. -6/3/23 End of Week

Super Soil Guide Peyote Wifi from Seedsman seeds wow can't believe it's been 15 weeks since I started this plant . Ive been busy brewing up the High tea and I fed about 15 litres of the diluted (5:1 water/tea ratio) Tea to her over a two day period and she lapped it up and has regained her vigor again. I know ive mentioned it previously in this diary but I can't stress how Important the condition of your soil is in ,is to your plants overall health. Ive seen lots of grows (mine included) where the Grower only takes notice of the plant itself and ignores the soil until issues appear via the leaves on the plant ie nutrient deficiencies , Root problems ,disease etc . By being Proactive with your soil as well as your plant you can potentially eliminate or alleviate any problems before they can effect the plant. Things like the use of Mycorrhizae will attack any bad pathogens within the soil and root system. Using seaweed/kelp on a regular basis helps the plant during times of stress or High temps as well as being a NATURAL PGR . Mollasses can be used to provide Carbs to your plants roots and the girls love it!! So in a nutshell ,, if you look after your soil it will look after your plants πŸ˜ƒ Thanks for stopping by and reading my diary update πŸ‘

Unfortunately I found bud rot, so I had to harvest without leaving the plant 2-3 days in the dark. Iβ€˜m satisfied with the harvest but I lost something like several grams at the end because of bud rot in two dense flowers.

A new journey has begun. A very special one since I am doing first photoperiod dependant strains and first time doing in coco. I decided to put four plants in the grow tent and to do main lining. It is going to be quite challenging because of all new techniques I’ll be using. Day 1: all four seeds sprouted nicely. I put them in small pots until they don’t grow and be ready for transplantation. I just watered them with a pH controlled water measured to 5.8.

Welcome to week 5 of flower. Things have gone very well so far a tiny amount of burning on a leaf text but I have corrected it before it became a real problem. I cut back the nutrient level to 2 mg of micro Bloom and flour as opposed to three and things seem to be going pretty good. The bud sites are fattening rather nicely considering it's only going into week 5.

Getting there... cant wait for Spring Walls are up and painted, floor is laid, electrical all done, exhaust outlets mounted. Ive started to install the trim - I decided to put a grey stain instead of boring paint on the floor trim boards. Looks really solid against the dark bamboo floors. I used two gallons and two coats of flat pure white paint for walls and ceiling. Should give me a reflectivity somewhere around 80%. Some may ask why not opt for mylar? I just dont like the look. I dont care too much for reflectivity, as I will be well above the required watts/sqft with the light setup I will be using. I mounted an electrical receptacle in the ceiling, I thought it may come in handy for cord management. Im going to mount the 3 x meanwell drivers outside of the grow room and run some extra long cables to them. This is to keep heat out of the room, any little bit helps. Will be running a 8inch fan with about 750 CFM in order to properly vent the room. Intake will be a door vent and the negative pressure the fan provides. Odor is not too much of a concern, but may as well add a carbon filter. Tables to be built this week after trim is installed Week 1 Spend - $2080 Week 2 Spend - $350 (mostly on hardware store visits) Total so far - $2430
