This is the last week of the Vegetation stage. At the beginning of the week they were trimmed to allow light to penetrate the canopy. Then at the end of the week they were fed a nutrient tea made from Gonzo Farms - GROW. On the last day the lights were set to a 12/12 schedule to induce flowering. Now, I will keep a close eye on them to spot the males. Once flowering begins, the males will grow "bananas". Then, those plants will be removed from the grow. 😜 Stay tuned for the Flowering stage!

Day 8 - so I’m into my 2nd week, no problems to report. Will be purchasing a 300w LED in the next couple of weeks for flowering. Growth has remained steady, gave each a small amount of nutes today, about 1ml per 500ml or so, not going to feed much just yet as these babies have only just started. I may upload a video unboxing the LED growlight and showing my setup, will also be purchasing a ph / moist monitor. ✌️🏻 Day 12 - tried hanging pots using bungee cords but it wasn’t worth the hassle, it made the setup a little more fragile. Happy with the overall setup now, plants at a good distance from CFL. I have ordered Advanced Nutrients Grow Micro Bloom pH Perfect and CalMag, they should arrive tomorrow so I am excited! 😍 ordering 300w LED next week ✌️🏻 Day 13 - nutrients have arrived, super excited!! Day 14 - plants responding well to the nutrients! Week 2 is over, plants looking healthy, roll on week 3! :)

If you don't follow my Instagram then you will have to read this portion. Lineage Breakdown: Pink Sugar Breath F1 created by UFO Genetics. Pink Sugar Breath: Platinum Kush Breath(IHG) X Pink Sugar Cookies(UFO) Pink Sugar Cookies: Sugar Cane(IHG) X Gsc Twister Pink Sugar Breath F2: Pink Sugar Breath Male(Funk/Purple Stems/Dumper) X Pink Sugar Breath Female(Pink Sugar Cookie Pheno) Bred by Me. I originally popped a good amount of these testers I created using a funk sugar breath male and a baker dough sugar breath with more of the pink sugar cookie lineage. This resulted in a pheno hunters dream. Each pheno develops massive amounts of resin. Green phenos imo are the best smokes SO far. They range from chemical og funk to og funk and dough. The purple pheno has more of a kush breath with sugary dough to it. Lastly is the pink pheno. The pink pheno develops amazing trichome production with all terps within the mom and pop. I originally popped these in x3 ran soil. They were broken in half. Overwatered. You fucking name it. I was stress testing this already herm vulnerable gsc twisted/ogkb hybrid. That being said the average grower should have minimum to none herm issues. 3 broke out batch but it was just a small trait from the vigorous stress I gave them. They developed high bract to leaf ratio with an intense sativa high. Growing these require 63 to 72 for a full expressions and an added body buzz with that kush breath high. 9/10. Flowering expect these to stretch 3x as big. They will need boosters/ extra feeding withing 17 days from flip. These are limited tested F2s. Only available @ [email protected]

Second topping went very well too and now its just one week before they go out in the wild. Growth wise they almost stretched double in size in one week so they seem to be very willing to perform. Only thing that i recognized is that the Eleven Roses doesnt like the same amount of Nutrients so much compared to the Pineapple Express but thats how it is. Took them out here and there for some hours of full bright sunlight and some strong wind, they been praying so beautiful, cant wait to see them later on outside ..

GMO (Garlic mushroom onion) was slow to flower but came on strong weeks 8 and 9 to produce some dense heavy sticky buds. The dry weight of the plant material is unsure, but I’ll report the weight of various bubble microns when dry. Pictures of the dry bubble and maybe a melt shot impending! To dry, I decided to microplane into pizza boxes lined with parchment. It’s been fun growing along with everyone on grow diaries. Awesome

LAST 2 GROWS OF SAME STRAIN PLANTS GREW UP TO 3 FT USING LOW POWERED LIGHT. THIS NEW LIGHT IS UNBRANDED, WEIRD AND THE EBAY SELLER SOUNDS LIKE HES JUST DROP SHIPPING THEM AS THEY DONT SELL THE DAISY CHAIN BUT THIS THING LOOKS TO BE DOING A WAY BETTER THAN EXPECTED JOB AS LONG AS YOU GROW 2 PLANTS ONLY AND IN 3 GALLON POTS MAX. IM USING FOX FARM BIG BLOOM. I CAREFULLY STICK MY FINGER IN DIRT ABOUT AN INCH OR 2 TO DETERMINE IF NEEDS WATER. 4 CUPS OF WATER FROM MY WELL AND ABOUT EVERY 2 WEEKS I SPLASH AN EMERIL LEGASSI BAM OF BIG BLOOM. IM PROBABLY USING WAY MORE FERTILIZER THAN I SHOULD BUT IT LOOKS GOOD SO IM GOING WITH IT. BASICALLY JUST ENOUGH TO COVER THE BOTTOM OF A 4 CUP MEASURING CUP. THE THING I DIDNT REALIZE ABOUT BIG BLOOM FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS UP UNTIL ABOUT A WEEK AGO IS, YOU HAVE TO SHAKE UP THE FREAKING BOTTLE BEFORE YOU USE IT. I JUST CHECKED IT, IT SAYS SHAKE WELL. SO IM SHAKING THE BOTTLE NOW AND IM PRETTY PROUD ABOUT THE WHOLE FUCKING THING. I HAVE WATCHED HOURS OF VIDEOS AND READ ARTICLES AND ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE DOING DIFFERENT THINGS AND I CANT DO THEM ALL BUT ORDERED CHEAP PH METER FOR SOIL AND WATER SO I CAN FILL IN THE BLANK AND MAYBE FIND OUT ANOTHER PIECE OF THE PUZZLE. JUST AM A LITTLE AFRAID TO TRY ANY NEW TRICKS AS IT SEEMS TO BE GOING OK. THE REASON IM ONLY GROWING CRITICAL PURPLE? ITS LEGAL WHERE I LIVE BUT THEY DONT SELL SHIT LIKE THIS STUFF. YOU HAVE TO HONESTLY HAVE WHATEVER SUPPLIES YOU MAY NEED FOR A COUPLE HOURS CLOSE BY AS ITS A LITTLE TRIPPY. NO MATTER HOW BIG THE BUDS END UP, SMOKING THE BEST SHIT OF YOUR LIFE AND KNOWING YOU GREW IT YOURSELF IS AN OUT OF BODY LEVEL EXPERIENCE. I RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY. NO PUN INTENDED.

L'heure de la récolte approche !! :) les fleurs on pris beaucoup de poids en début de semaine. 2 branches qui n'était pas dans un carreau de mon filet on cassé. C'est lourd... mais s'est aussi très compacte, collants, givré et odorant !! :) les derniers jours on été plus tranquille. Peu de différence autre que les trichomes plus nombreux. Troisième rinçage effectuée. Prévoit coupé sa dans 3 à 6 jours. Dans ma vidéo en ordre respectives. Durban Poison, Bruce Banner, Fruity Og Kush.

Flowering nice. Madarin Cookies are two in back and one in center Silver Kush are two up front. I ran out of room for scrogging branches in back, letting them just strech. Unfortunately that has me keeping the light higher than Id like. Since S.K. are shorter, the one at right side is 30" from light, while stretched branches in back are 12" from light. Averaging 18" overall from lights.... Hope i dont get light bleaching! UPDATE: Added 2nd screen on Day2 to keep stretchy branches lower Cookies are flowering nice, one of the silver kush is just starting to flower while the other hasn't started yet.... hmmm 2-3 gallons water/nutes per 5 plants, alternating with plain water (just calmag, malassis, Ph. 6.4) every other day. Ph.6.4

F11, riego con EC 2.2 y pH 6.3, se cambió la luz de 1 LED de 480w a 3 LEDs de 240w, sumando un total de 720w, a una distancia de 40cm de las plantas y una intensidad de 80%, estamos en la semana 2 de floración, esperaré hasta la semana 3 para hacer una gran y última defoliación, Lollipop y acompañado de instalar una pequeña estructura de tutores. F16, gran defoliación y armado de la estructura de tutores, se puede ver cómo la luz pasa de manera uniforme hasta el fondo de los maceteros, antes de la defoliación el fondo del macetero se veía con sombra, oscuro. Se puede apreciar que aunque estamos iniciando la tercera semana de floración, ya hay presencia de tricomas. Las plantas se ven muy saludables.

Hello Growers! Nice to finally join the club! 😁 This is a step by step of my very first attempt at growing from Start to Finish. It's something I've always wanted to do and I've researched a lot of over the years but now is the right time to give it a go as I have become a medical user of cannabis and the price just keeps going up!! 😂🤦‍♂️ So without going on too much let's get down to the nitty gritty... I Dropped the 1 seed into a glass of 5.8 PH water on 10/05/21 which I also dechlorinated, waited until she sank then placed her between two damp paper towels inside two plates in a warm, dark & humid spot (bucket) until the tap root showed and was about 1/4" long then she went straight Into media on 12/05/21. Day 1 - 15/05/21 - first two baby leaves open & lights on! Day 2 - 4L Humidifier added, seedling just under 3" tall ALREADY!!! So I've lowered the light from 23" to 15" to try and stop the stretching. Day 3 - 17/05/21 - Checked on my girl and she's the same height as yesterday so hopefully the stretching has stopped 🤞 I also built a T-bar diffuser for my humidifier using some 32mm PVC pipe and fittings (Photo Above) I'm hoping this will distribute the humidity more evenly so I can have the humidifier on less often, I'm getting puddles of condensation forming in the bottom of my tent which is annoying! 🌊🌊🌊 😂 I'm hoping it might save me a bit of deionised water as well? 🤔 Day 4 - The T-bar diffuser I installed on the humidifier is working well, The RH is staying up and so far no puddles! ⛲ 😂 I will get a more comprehensive reading of highs and lows over the next few days and get it dialled in the best I can. I also think that because there is a lot of red LED's in this Mars Hydro light that may also contributing to the stretch during my girls early stages of life. Thankfully she is looking great and the stretch is massively reduced now that The light is lower. 😁 Day 5 - 19/05/21 - So far So Good! 😊 The stretching has definitely stopped but I'm still worried about her getting so tall so fast!! So today I installed a small 6" fan in the corner of my tent to try and get her stem to thicken up a bit, this is set to run only when the humidifier is on otherwise it screws up my RH and Temperatures. I also plan to bury her an inch or two deeper when I re-pot 👍 apart from that she's doing great! 🙂 Day 6 - 20/05/21 - No major updates today she's just looking happy! 🙂 Today's Environment Readings: Max Out (Probe) - 24.2c Max In (LCD Screen) - 23.8c Max RH (LCD Screen) - 81% Min Out (Probe) - 18.8c Min In (LCD Screen) - 18.7 Min RH (LCD Screen) - 47% Day 7 - So that's week 1 done & It seems like I've gotten all my temps down now, 👍 she's no longer stretching, humidity and temperatures are staying where I want them and my little girl is looking healthy 😁 No nutrients for the first 7 - 10 days of her life just water 🚰 set to PH 5.8 and dechlorinated. Hardware 0.75 x 0.75 x 2.0m Bud Box Pro tent in White Telos 6 Pro 175w LED! 😁 4" TT pro fan for Extraction moves up to 187M2 & SMS Controler + temperature probe 3" Passive intake (made slightly larger than normal due to the small area and large fan, also covered to prevent pests) 6" clip on Ram fan placed next to intake Rhino Pro 100/300mm Carbon Filter 4" Black combi ducting which feeds outside 4L humidifier set to run intermittently via analogue timer to increase humidity in Seedling + Veg stage Agro lab Temperature and humidity sensor Media I decided to go with a soil media as all of the medicine I grow will be for myself so flavour, quality and terpenes mean more to me than weight 0.2L"ish" Seedling pots - 75% BioBizz light mix 25% Canna Coco Professional for added drainage I will only be re-potting once into 8L Fabric pots 75% BioBizz All Mix 25% Canna Coco Professional Nutrients Going to stick with the BioBizz range of organic liquid nutrients including Grow, Bloom, Root Juice, Cal-Mag, PH down & Top Max apart from using some Plant Magic Silicon, some Root it First Feed, some Neutralise to remove the chlorine and chloramine from my tap water & Flawless Flush at the end. (I have some more seeds en-route to be safe) Light Distance From Canopy - 120cm Temperatures - Lights On - 26.0C Temperatures - Lights Off -20.0C Relative Humidity - 75% - Lights On Relative Humidity - 60% Lights Off Current Light schedule - 18/6 I can't think of anything else to include in regards to specs but if I've missed anything off or if you have any questions or comments then get involved as I'd love some input and advice!!! In the Meantime everyone I'm going for a smoke!! Stay High, Stay Happy and keep Growing!!! PEACE!!!! ✌️ Potgoblin Quick edit...The 3 remaining pots will have some other vegetables in them for this run, Pear Drop Cherry Tomatoes and Sweet Peppers if anyone was wondering...
