🌱 Week 3, Day 7 Update: Buds Are Blooming! 🌿 Hey Grow Fam, We're cruising through Week 3, and my girl is really coming on—buds are starting to form, and it's a sight to behold! The girl is growing so fast now, drinking 4.5L a day. She could even do with in-between waterings, in my opinion. She's aiming for the stars and shooting for the moon, getting bigger every day and stinking out my room. I had to tie my light higher up with some rope as it wouldn't go any higher, and shoots were getting way too close! I did SCROG when flipping, and I should've been a bit more strict on it (did it longer), but now I realize why SCROG is used. Imagine if I never used it—she would be way too tall. Overall, I'm so happy with how she is growing and can't wait to see the final product. :) But, as with any journey, we've hit a little bump in the road. Despite keeping our feeding consistent at 850ppm, the runoff readings have been creeping up. Last check-in showed a runoff of 1400ppm. It's got me thinking we might be dealing with a salt buildup in the root zone. To address this, I'm sticking with our feeding routine at 800-850ppm. If the runoff ppm keeps climbing or if our plants start showing signs of nutrient burn, I will adjust accordingly, but as of right now, I'm sticking to the same feed as she looks great! ( If I do begin to notice signs of nutrient burn (excess), I will try to water with a lower EC/PPM, like 700ppms, to bring it down. But if I don't get the results I'm hoping for, I will just flush the plant with 3x the media size of water (just plain pH water) to wash out any old salts and reset the medium. You don't really want to do this with coco depending on what stage your at in flower, veg on the other hand flush.? Sure!, if you really need to reset that medium go for it, (i do see tiny signs of burn but thats fine if it gets worse then i have a problem) Let's stay focused and keep our eyes on the prize—beautiful healthy buds. We've got this! #GrowUpdate #Week3 #BudsBlooming #KeepGrowing 🌱🌿

Hi everyone, the plants are stretching well. The fastberries are starting to take on shades of purple. The grapefruit is already producing trichomes, as is Rhino Ryder. In any case, for the moment, everything is going well. Thanks to those who follow me and read my comments.

Last week was very challenging, two girls got really tall below the white light, while the other two below the blurple spectrum ended up being smaller and bushier, both looking fantastic. Last week I also probably went too far defoliating the shaded smaller girl which stunned it a bit for a day or two but its flowering vigorously again. Although the unexpected stretch which led to uneven light coverage overally the platns are looking solid, smelly and sugary :)

We are 3 days into flush. I flush with plain water. It is day 47 and yes I’m flushing early. Only a few amber trichomes to be seen but that’s gonna change rapidly. Last time under this same set up I went to day 60 and found a few pods. So 60 is a day or 3 over. Was gonna go with 50 and see what it looks like. If they need a few more days they will get it.

Program DSP2E, Temperature DST2E, Humidity DSH2E, as well as the AMP3 sensor with PH and EC probes, are all in place. After calibrating the probes, AMP3 module works perfectly! It has a quick response in measurements, is accurate, and I am very happy about the possibility of online monitoring of liquid values. After day off use i can tell that all readings are very consistent, compared with Milwaukee, totally without all over the place measurements. Perfectly steady and on spot receding! The Program device runs flawlessly all day, and I hope it has solved all the problems I had with DH48-S timers. The humidity control operates without errors throughout the day, and it’s nice to see in the app when the module is active. Raise light as much as i can..50-55cm from canopy. Set off misting time from 30min to 35min @ day time , and from 35min to 45min @ night time Flush Tropicana Cookies' for one more day, tomorrow harvest, prepared tent for drying with humidifier , ventilation and temperature and humidity controllers PAR Map: Maximum PPFD is 850, minimum PPFD is 500.

had an issue with ph right after transplant, not sure if water was off or soil had a surge. im thinking fish tank water ph was way low. issue corrected. Removed some leaves for structure and airflow. LST and FIM. See what it looks like next week.

Day 63: Another week passes and the girls are now building nice long Colas all over . Buds are looking good and smelling so pineapple/fruity now. Buds are looking nice and hairy without looking airy. #1 In the organic soil is overall the widest and area hungry lady but her sisters are taller . #2 has been quietly pushing her way through the middle position in the grow and has some nice fat looking buds forming. #3 Is a surprise for me as I wasnt sure it would make it this far. No matter what I do , the leaf continues to look awful but the size of her and her now forming so many stacking buds , I am glad I kept her going now !. I do think at least 3 weeks for these ladies before harvest but hope to give them room to swell when the space is opened up.

Day 50: Water intake is 150ml per plant, light schedule 18/6. Humidity is approx 50%. Fertilization continues the same way Monday, Wednesday, Friday Biobizz family, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. Flowers are developing nicely and getting thicker. Plants love the new 600W Viperspectra:) All good so far! They are all approx 30-35 cm. Day 53: Smell is getting stronger, really nice mix one. Day 55: Nice smell comes out from this tent. Plants are nice buds are getting dense and the smell is getting stronger and stronger. All of them do well, some more some with less bud development but they all look happy.

Drunken Bitch Slap is growing great under the Hortibloom Solux 350. I switched light today to 12/12. So time to start the stretch, and flowering stages. She did get a lot of training today. From root pruning to lollipopped with a touch of defoliation, and lst. Nothing else to report at the moment. Thank you Hortibloom, and Aeque Genetics. 🌱👍🏻🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Week 8 Looking absolutely huge😂 They’re so tall and wide . Lots of healthy green leaves and strong roots. I was worrying a lot about sex issues as when I did my research I found out they’re quite common to hermaphrodite. Was really worrying but all calyx’s have female signs (so far🙏🏻) so pray for me brothers&sisters.

Wow! What a difference a week makes. They are all in flower. They are all autos from Dutch Passion except one auto Dinafem Sour Diesel. There are 7 Glueberrys, 2 Colorado Cookies, 1 Blueberry, 1 Think Different & 1 Sour Desiel. It’s day 35 today. The 3 plants on the right side of the tent are only 3 weeks old. I have done a little LST and will continue to do so. A couple of the plants have shown slight calmag and slight phosphorus deficiency. I water right now every 3 days with the Fox Farm Trio combination. I use fertilizer every watering but cut the amount in half that is recommended. I also use powered seaweed each watering. I will start another round of 12 autos in 3 weeks. Doing this legally now is unbelievable to me. I have been partaking of this wonderful plant since 1969. That’s 50 years this last July!

Hello world, 🇬🇷 the previous week was training week for Michelle,who was LSTed and for Lucy who was topped...the girls are fine and growing...they also got fed with the Enhancer,which scares me a bit,but everything went well... WEEK 5:"MAGIC PEOPLE,VOODOO PEOPLE" ☠️Day 29...out in the sun with normal temps and no wind...watered with ph 6,4,about 500 ml...I have changed my water pattern with these girls...I used to water every 3 days with 1,5 L but now I do it daily with less water...What I need now is light...I grow with the sun and the last days haven't been too sunny here...now the weather is changing again...come on Sun,give me some light!Meanwhile when it's sunny it's too windy,so windy that I have to put them inside as they will be seriously damaged... ☠️Day 30...I think instead of topping I may have fimmed Lucy...not sure as I have never done fimming before...Now I inderstand why they call it like that...in my case: Fuck,did I miss???🤣🤣🤣...we"ll see...however new shoots are growing well... ☠️Day 31...as I was watching my girls with pride and love,the sunlight revealed hundreds of tiny white bugs jumping on the soil..I mean they are hundreds...I sprayed with vinegar just the top layer of the soil and waiting to see... I made a grow question and I got a very interesting advice from a fellow grower...I sprayed with cinnamon extract...hope it will help... Today I applied LST to Lucy as she is getting very tall and lunky...she's been topped,LSTed and she will be topped again when time comes... ☠️Day 32...windy and rainy outdoors...the girls are inside...Today I adjusted Michelle's LST... ☠️Day 33...the weather is fucked up...one week ago we had 40°C and today it's cold and rainy...summer is not here yet....I realized I Fimmed Lucy instead of topping her as new growth came up on the cut stem...I cut it off again as I can't experiment now,I have never Fimmed before and don't know what to expect... ☠️Day 34...no sunlight for the girls...its very cloudy and may rain again...meanwhile the bugs are vanished...cinnamon and vinegar did their job... ☠️Day 35...finally we have some sun and the girls are outside...they have stayed a bit behind all those days inside without proper light... the week is ending,thank u all for watching..see u next week ☠️
