🌱 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 🌱🌿

Starting to think if I didn't stunt pheno 3 initially, how much more beautiful this plant would be. It was the runt due to nute burn as a seedling. It has now become my favorite plant of the 3. It has beautiful structure, and the fan leaves are almost triple the size of the other 2. Pheno 1 is showing signs of preflower.. stretchy girl showing her indica traits. Pheno 2 has seemed to back off on the vertical growth, reminds me of pheno 3 but with not quite as good genetics. Beautiful plant though 👌 Pheno 3 would be the plant you clone of the 3 if this were a photo run. I'm curious to see how she turns out.

These plants are pushing the limits for this tent. I have had to figure out a way to get the lights a little higher to the top. I am bending some of the branches of the hydro plant as that one is growing bigger and faster then any other (10,5,2 gal) i do see that the plant that is in the 10 gallon is maturing faster.

Some great growth over the past few days, Jack is starting to stretch his legs for sure! To ensure there’s no issues with height, I decided to Top him, I’m not really going to apply any other methods of LST other than gentle defoliation and lead tucking. Jack has been fed regularly BioBizz nutrients and some beneficial bacteria to support the mediums microbiology 🤓✌️👍 Let’s see what the next week holds for Jack, he’s under a 250watt dual spectrum HPS for the rest of his life now ☀️ 😎 See you all next week! ✌️👊

Changed nutrient solution in the veg tent. The girls look happy so I'm happy. 😁👍🏼 They're filling in nicely, it's just a matter of time. ♀️ *These plants are still in veg I put flower by mistake*

She is doing great. Starting to put on her bulk. Today I have her a tea that I brewed for 24 hours. It consisted of be-1 pellets, be-2 humics, worm castings and grokashi. She has been praying to the light and loving life.

Très bonne semaine, aucun problème de chaleur et hygrométrie au top... Orange sherbet : Toujours aucune différence réel entre les engrais utilisé, 2 des 3 spécimens sont d'une taille gigantesque, l'une dépasse les 65 cm et l'autre est quelques peu plus petite de 3 ou 4 cm 👌. Le 3iem plants que j'ai façonné pour être plus court mais plus dense avec de grosses feuilles bien épaisse, c'est très bien comporté et ne subit pas de réelle stresse face aux techniques utilisées pour créer ce type de résultat (plante basse et massive a la limite du bonsaï 💪), bien sûr le test ici est de voir si ce type de culture pour cette variété est rentable ou non 😉. 2 plants taillé et un plant pincé. Le plant pincé a eu une réaction d'activation de pré-floraison, les deux autres n'ont subit aucun stress dû a la taille 👌. Afghani : Je suis plus que satisfait de mon résultat de fin de croissance pour mes 3 plants, il font une taille resonable de 45 cm et devrait donc si tout est ok avoir une progression en fin de floraison a 120 voir 130 cm 👍. Le plant sous Monster Bud' est plus robuste que les 2 autres, mais reste a voir si en floraison il sera aussi abondant, de plus je crains d'avoir un goût plus suave et acide dû au fait que les engrais organiques reste dans le sol et qu'il devient alors impossible de rincer la plante en fin de période 🤔. 2 plants taillé et un plant pincé... Réaction normal avec l'un ou l'autre mais une légère préférence pour le pinçage plutôt que la taille pour des raisons évidentes de structure. Permanent marker : Très belle structure du tronc, feuillage bien épais et plante travaillé pour rester a niveau des autres variétés. Le plant a été taillé car le tronc est bien large et devrait pouvoir supporter ce type de structure sans trop intervenir dans son maintient... A voir ! Je suis bien déçu de ne pas avoir un deuxième sujets pour tester et faire des comparaisons 😡, si cette variété fait ce qu'elle promet je reprendrai des graines mais chez Zamné (je boycotte Blimburn, pour leur incompétence dans ce domaine). Girl scoot cookies : Toujours ce léger retard qui en fait une plante trop basse, j'ai donc tenté une taille abusive a laquelle elle a très bien réagi 😋. J'ai tout de même surélevé sont pot pour la ramener à hauteur des 2 autres plants. Je vois déjà le résultat que cela vas donner en fin de floraison 😁😁😁... Celà me rappelle mes premiers essais il y a 10 ans ! La plante ce porte très bien et a une amplitude massive dû a ces belles feuilles bien verte et très très épaisse 😊. Elle présente un tronc hors norme et bien agencé dans ça structure, j'ai hâte de voir sont évolution 😁. S.plant : J'ai un faible pour cette plante qui n'a rien a faire ici 😍. Elle est magnifique avec des feuilles extrêmement longue et finement taillé en pointe (Sativa ❤️). Je l'ai taillé car étonnamment elle est restée très basse et a bien entendu donné de très belles branches secondaires avec une levé extraordinaire en 3 jours 👍, c'est comme si elle m'écoutais pour me donner le meilleur d'elle-même 🤩. Vous l'aurez compris c'est devenu la chouchoute 😉. Le plant fait pile poil la taille des autres plants mis sous cette lampe, je ne pouvais pas espérer mieux 👌. Bon ça va être sportif en floraison mais on va s'adapter et si elle me pose problème, je rajouterai deux autres lampes en 400W pour ne pas gâcher 😁. Nous voilà donc en fin de croissance, je voulais prendre 1 semaine de plus mais Orange sherbet en a décidé autrement 🤗, je respecte son choix 😁👌. Zoo, 36 heures dans le blackout total 🤣😂 pour activer la floraison via un léger stresse, je taf a l'ancienne sur cette culture Oui Oui 🤣😂. Bien entendu je ne compte pas ces 36 heures dans ma 1ere semaine de floraison, donc nous aurons un décalage pour le prochain post ✌️. D'ici-là bonne culture a tous 😉.

The plants are looking good and are drinking around 0.5l a day of ph6.0 water and are now getting BioCanna Veg, around 3 drops from a tablespoon to sart with. Helaas niet veel te vertellen, de tent blijft gewoon op juiste temperatuur, de ventilator blaast en de lamp is een kanon op 40%, elke week zal ik deze opvoeren tot ze in week 5 100% is.

Okay so I’ve been slacking a bit on the grow-diaries, only because I’ve had a lot going on and also because I don’t feel obligated to do so because this isn’t a sponsored grow. It’s been nice to have a little break but I think I’m ready to come back at it full force again. These girls are living their best lives, they are all the same age and they are all thriving. Floraflex nutrients, as well as some Silica, Regina-root, and a trichome enhancer called “Grease”!! Seems like the real deal. Watering every other day and let me tell you these girls are very thirsty. Defol as needed! My new HLG Blackbird lamp fixture is out of this world. My 3 autos that you can also find in my profile absolutely blew up. I typically fit 4 autos in my 3x3 but now it’s essentially one Purple punch from Fastbuds and I had to cram 2 more inside basically because they are going crazy. Unfortunately I had to move them from under the blackbird and put them under a HLG350R and they are still going crazy. Basically what I’m saying is HLG Lamps=Crazy growth and amazing lamps!! HLG has a lifetime customer! That’s it for now but check in next week to see the progress! Thanks for tuning in. Until next time and as always, Stay Smokey my Friends!!! 💨💨💨 Instagram: Virginia_nugz_540 Sponsors: Horticulture Lighting Group HLG-Blackbird HLG-600RSpec HLG-350R Diablo (X2) Discount code: Virginia_Nugz Petra Tools LTPRO 2.0 Backpack Sprayer Trimbag Standard Trimbag Discount Code: Virginia_nugz Fastbuds Fastbuds Genetics Goat and Monkey Hydrokulture Store 4x4 Gorilla Tent

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 💚🌱 We proud to present the second Strain from Good Times Genetics! Die Wuchsform der Pflanzen wirkt bis jetzt sehr homogen, es ist zu beachten, dass natürlich die einen etwas schneller wachsen, wie die anderen. Auch die Stielbreite unterscheidet sich etwas. Insgesamt wirken die Jungpflanzen allerdings sehr kompakt, was eine gewisse Indica Dominanz vermuten lässt. Das ist auch so gewollt. Ich werde immer wieder verschiedene Pflanzen der gleichen Zucht dokumentieren und nach der Geschlechtsbestimmung dann Herausfiltern, welche zwei Pflanzen für die Fertigstellung des Diaries in Frage kommen. Die Wachstumsbedingungen im Growzelt sind weiterhin am Optimum und Stabil: ——————— 🌞 Temp: 23°C 🌚 Temp: 20 °C 💨 RH: 58% VPD: 0,86 kPa 😎PPFD: 330 mqm ——————— Stay Tuned! 💚

I have tasted some even though it is a little early for it to be fully cured. The smoke is very smooth, absolutely no throat hit but within seconds I get a great feeling at the top of my head and melts down to the rest of my body. Grandpa Larry should not operate machinery! Currently don’t have a scale... epic fail, hopefully I will update this with an approximation of yield.

This was the easiest to grow. Shook off light stress and hard water to produce more yield than any of the others. Will be growing again. Dense, golf ball size nuggets.

Unfortunately my digital timer was defective and made the flowering phase delay by 2 weeks. From one side, this delay allowed them to stretch a bit more. On the other side, it made me start giving bloom nuts with bad timing, thinking the bloom phase was already started. In other words, I gave bloom nuts in the last 2 weeks of veg. This means I’ll have to give them “week 3” bloom nuts for two more weeks, maybe reducing by 50% the B-52 and Big Bud dosages (they could be a little too much). Let’s now talk about the lady: well, she’s growing like a monster: 73cm!!!! She is the biggest of the grow room. She’s been growing 7-8 cm every day in the last days. That’s impressive! Woohoo, I love sativassssss! They will make you feel like a king, and they will be your queens 👸 By the way, sativas are WILD, and they make you sweat before showing their pistils. That’s what’s happening now. As well as the two Euphoria, they’ve not shown anything but a small pre-flower (not even a pistil for the moment). We’ll see in the next days. In the meantime, enjoy the photos and the video at the end! Cheers buds 👊

we are finally geting closer to the end, had some minor over feeding issues but quickly sorted so pretty much no damage just few leaves have some signs of burns, nothing drastic one more week of normal feeding and then I will add pK 13/14 for a week and finally 2 weeks flushing I bought humidifier but It doesn't really do much work. Humidity is still around 50% so i hope good airflow will be anough to avoid any mould

New week while I have time, Gloria looking fair but weather has taken a very cool wet turn, lots of clouds maybe 2-3 hours good direct sun at best. So I am clearing out the tent and while its idle for a few days putting her under the light more to prevent any bud rot than bud growth. Zombie Quas looking... well I have nothing to compare it to but its healthy so far and turning into a mass of bud, gotta watch this. Monstercropping not so good outdoors :) Plants say a week till to harvest. Gloria is on water and light sugar only till then, Quas will get whatever I throw at it, things a tiny beast. Love it 9/22 Due to the best we can hope for is 20% sun for the next few days she is moved under the lights in the big tent. Can stay there about a week and hope this mess clears by then. The little beast Zombie Quas says the weather is fine and thinks Gloria is a wimp...💪 9/23 0.5 gal feed of 3ml/g bio-bloom well decided to get her some light and harvest on the other side of the weather... if rumors of clearing hold ;) 9/24 Back outside, a little marginal today but I need the tent. Harvest later this week 9/27 Busy day harvest report later have to get all kinds of stuff done ahead of the snow this weekend.
