Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Info and pictures were taken at day 12 of flower. Nice progress this week. There's plenty of new growth. She hasn't grown upwards as much as the other ladies, only about 5 cm this week. BUT she's got a darker green color, stronger smell than all the others. It's smell is unique and very strong. Not sweet, VERY pungent, it's a slap in the face kind of smell. Her bud formation is also more advanced than all the other girls. That's something I need to watch out for because she's an early finisher. Supposedly finishes in 40 - 45 days. Feeding 1,5L each, every other day. Will be increasing as they ask for more. How do they ask for more? When feeding if the soil is drier than normal I give a 150-200ml increment of water. I do that until they stop feeding so much then i just maintain that amount. I start reducing if it takes longer to dry. That works good for me. The old finger in the dirt trick. 👍 Nothing like knowing exactly what your ladies need first hand. That's it for now. Stay tuned for next week's update. If you like what you see check out the other diaries. Take care and stay safe! One love! ✌️🏽

The veg cycle was shorter than i usually like to have a plant go through, due to time restrictions for the Bubba Cheesecake Diary grow-off, but it still did fantastic in my mind! Three months in veg under high-octane light and 11 1/2 weeks in flower have let this plant turn into a dreadlocked group of nugs. Three main colas, but lots of burnable flower to enjoy once the dry is finished. I did a light LST with a decent amount of defoliation throughout the plant's life. I like to open up the middle area of the plant and let as much light as possible hit as many branch and potential flower nodes as possible. This way, i don't need to lollipop as many branches and as much foliage as i would if i didn't do this. Plus, the candelabra look is b-e-a-Utiful, in my opinion. Light intensity through veg ranged from 40% as a fresh seedling to around 55% the week before i put it into the bloom room. Once it was in the bloom room, the intensity was set at 50% for the first couple weeks to allow for a decent stretch. After that, i think i recorded the light intensity in my diary notes for each week. But, just in case i didn't, I bumped up the intensity by a few percent every 3 days until i hit 100%. Once i got to MAXIMUM POWER, i left it there until harvest. Water was natural well water that tests out at 7 pH. I always added BuildABloom to the water, never the soil, when i used it. Same with Dr. Earth's 1-2-1 tea concentrate. Other than those instances, it was just straight water that i was giving to the plant. Grow rooms are both about 4'x8'. Lights are still budget lights: -IMVSincere BC100(x3) for veg (Link: https://www.amazon.com/IMVSINCERE-Spectrum-High-Performance-Greenhouse-Hydroponic/dp/B095C2DLH5/ref=asc_df_B095C2DLH5/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=563646983247&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=540375076791862758&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005737&hvtargid=pla-1602626531718&psc=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw__ihBhADEiwAXEazJgD4ugog9JhrBxNShAvyxL7mk9FZTcqD8voe6_dtA20JctuC5Q9qvBoCD7oQAvD_BwE ) Abriselux A1500(x2) for flower (Link: https://www.amazon.com/Abriselux-Dimmable-Coverage-Upgraded-Hydroponic/dp/B08V1FM9V2/ref=asc_df_B08V1FM9V2/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=507792239689&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17954986133471144655&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005737&hvtargid=pla-1213853152075&psc=1 ) All in all, this was one of the most enjoyable cultivars I've grown inside since i started indoor grows in September 2022. I'm definitely going to try and get more seeds off of my brother, as well as buy some more seeds to pheno-hunt through! Thank you, @Seedsman , for running this contest. I would have never tried this cultivar out if it wasn't for you giving me a little incentive!

They are all coming along nicely. I’m concerned that they are fading a little early. I’ve used the nutrients may add a bloom booster

4/15 Fighting a soil pH issue. Learned I made some crucial mistakes this entire grow that compounded week after week until a few days ago and I have complete lockout. I was feeding every watering (rookie mistake). I tested runoff and it was at 1800ppm and 3.5 EC, I have done lots of flushing and got soil to an acceptable level of 800ppm and 1.5-1.6 EC. But my soil pH is testing around 4 and will not come up. I have watered with baking soda and it up near 4.5-4.6 now but I have flushed so much over last 3 days I can't stress the plant anymore. Leaves on the bigger plant are rust spotted everywhere and dying off. I will prob lose plant disappointing since it's so far along. I will still yeild something from it but had this not happened this plant would have been great it's super stinky and sticky right now and buds are dense but would have really stacked on and produced had this not happened. Other plant is chugging along its got same soil issues but showing no signs of stress yet. 4/16 Soil pH is still super low on the sick plant and continues to decline, I watered both plants with baking soda water and was able to get the healthier plants soil to 5.8ph. In a last ditch effort to salvage the sick plant, I cut off the fabric pot and transplanted to a planter I had with double the soil capacity. There were no roots stuck to the walls of fabric pot, the base had some but overall I caused very little damage to root system. I watered again with baking soda water and it's now at 4.4ph the fresh soil I put in planter was 6.8 and immediately after watering the new soil tested down to 4. I'm hoping I can get some leaching of buildup from the old soil to the new and get it balanced quickly. I was able to get both plants soil testing around 5.8ph and out of the extreme acidity. There are some spots here and there that are testing a little lower. The healthier plant was showing the slightest spotting all over today, I watered it to about 20% runoff with calmag. Hopefully neither plant get any worse. 4/17 repotting the plant seemed to help tremendously, it really frosted up and seems to have resumed flowering. The other plant seems to be about a 7-10 days behind. 4/20 Bigger plant has really taken on a purple hue, pistils are appx 15-20% turned. Other plant seems to be 7-10 days behind, this is the plant that was over watered in the beginning and was stunted.

11.5. - Entering new week with fattening buds and smelly growbox. I'm really excited for the harvest now, however still couple weeks left. Watered 💧 14.5. - Damn, all that high humidity made some damage. To be specific I'm having issues with rust fungi. Next time I have to lower the amount of plants in my box as I don't have enough space and airflow. Watered 💧 17.5. - Watered 💧 11.5. - 17.5.2024

Had some very good growth this week. Days 14-21. The girls have been dialed in at about 63-65% RH and 76-79 degrees F. On day 18 I dialed up my BP2500 to about 165 watts at the wall, and kept my small tent heater in place for the time being, nights have gotten cooler. The girls seem to be ❤️ the extra light, without causing any harm. Switched from distilled water to tap water that has been dechlorinated for 24 hours mid way through the week, no issues shown. Added 1 ml of Micro, and 1 ml of Cal/Mag to 1/2 gallon of water, PH’d to 6.2 and watered approx. 1/2cup of water per x2 throughout the week, and about 1 cup once transplanted. On day 21 they were all looking so healthy, with some roots coming from the bottom of my starter pots, I decided to transplant into 2 gallon nursery pots. My final pot will be a mix of 5 and 7 gallon fabric pots, try and see if any differences can be had.

She's looking absolutely gorgeoys very bushy with 12 main colas,wish I could have had more time to grow her in vegetative stage however she's eating very good,no problems at all,she went trough a bad week where she was lacking some nutrient I don't know why because she is in a living soil like her sisters and none of them had any issues however she's starting flower,actually she started force flowering with her sisters on August 3rd

Well, what we feared, became a reality, one of the regular XTrakush plants is a male. This is why I planted two and I'm happy it seems to be only the one. But with the canopy going nice and full it hurt to get it out. Of course, I hoped to have two females but nature went its course. Considered leaving it in, to pollinate the others, or keeping it somewhere, but I do not have the space or light for it. Thus with pain in my gut, I went about getting her out. I notice a nice developed root system, very healthy, which was very hard to get loose. After shaking the soil off I have a rootball the same size as after my whole grow last time. I could lift the whole 57 ltr bag by lifting the plant. Sturdy stem, thick solid branches. This is what I was aiming for and it works. The soil again is proving itself to be a winner. The light this low gives some higher temps as expected, but manageable within ranges. The SP-3000 is performing really well and I cant wait to see the bud development coming weeks. I'm sure it will deliver a great amount of bigger buds looking at all the flower sites and the thick branches that support them. Remember to check in on www.mars-hydro.com, they have awesome deals now for Black Friday! I'm giving more water now, once in two days instead of three. They seem to need it with the higher temps. The plants seem to take the light well on only 45 cm. I've started adding the BAC Organic Bloom Nutrition. It is designed to work with the microorganisms I added with the micro life. With this I do a little bit of Calmag, but not so much, since I don't see any evidence of shortages, again proving my soil is dialed in for growing under LED perfectly. All in all, even with a minor setback, all is ready to pull in a mega harvest. Thanks for checking in again!! Hug Bud & Sunshine.

June 10: start adding big bud 1.3ml/L

The lil Big Bud is still growing really well😎. I started to add master grower massive bloom from hydropassion since day 45.(0.3gr/L). She really starts to smell good😊.

Pretty quiet week this week. Got her switched to flushing mode and am just sitting back and watching the trichomes finish. Over the last 7-10 days have seen them for from 50/50 to 90/10 if not 95/5 (cloudy/clear) and should start seeing some reds in next day or so. Don't mind at all if she flushes longer than a week, good to get all the salts out and whatnot. Have noticed an even further deepening of the purple on the buds and sugar leaves. She's gonna be quite the harvest! Time to prqctic our patience....

Buena semana para todos!! Esta planta también surgió de un esqueje que intercambié. Al momento de recibirlo tenia 1 mes de vida y lo pasé a una maceta "Air Pots" de 10L. Tuvo 40 días de vegetación en esta maceta, se le hizo podas apicales y Supercrooping para regular su altura. Al día de la fecha (29/5) lleva 17 días florando. Está hermosa. Calculo que en 3 semanas más estará para corte. Saludos y buenos humos.

Awesome growth Nodes so tight going to be a bushy plant will be doing some small defoliation in the next few days will update with pics 🏆 Update defoliation and some lst for this girl Acrss them bud sites she's really short compared to the forbidden runtz I started the same time but bushier :)

Hello fellow growers, As expected, the real work in the garden began this week. It started with transplanting the girls into the 25 liter bed. This will be there final residence. Apperently they didnt feel comfortable in the smaller pot. For this we used Plagron light mix with perlite that we sprinkled with a lot of Mycotrex. Mixed into the soil and put 5 grams to the planting whole as well.🍄 I didn't want to cause them any more stress even though I wanted to stop the upward growth as soon as possible. So waited 2 days after transplantation before we started with the trainings. On day 26 topped the girls and began with LST. Vertical growth really had to be stopped because they grew huge in 2 weeks. Obviously our task now will be to teach them to invest their energies in the growth on the side branches.👨‍🌾🏻🌱 Watered twice this week with the above mentioned nutrients.💦 Changed the light for the Ts3000 which is on 45% intensity at the moment. This means 600 PPFD at the top of the plants. Will keep this in the whole veg period. Since I have the PAR meter, my work is much easier when it comes to set the light to the desired height. It's worth investing in a cheaper model imo. Did not really defoliated, just took off a few big fan leaves. I just got from these CO2 tablets which you can add to the water but I don’t really know if it will work or will the plants benefit from it? Hope everyone has a great weekend. Take care Growmies, see you next week.🍪🍦

This week went pretty well, other than she stretched like crazy and I am now getting worried about running out of vertical space. I also had a few of my bottom leaves get a few brown and yellow spots on them. I did post some pics and asked a question, thank you for the responses, much appreciated! I am thinking about adding my Spyder Farmer LED 100 Watt light into the tent for the nebula auto because it is about 23 inches shorter than the sour diesel. I believe it would only raise my temp about 2 degrees, and possibly lower the humidity by one or two percent. I must say my dehumidifier has been a freaking stud, running 24X7 and not complaining. I should look into adding another unit, it has been in the mid 90's and muggy for about a week. So far I have to say I am super impressed and excited with this setup, the genetics, and with growing this wonderful plant in general. Already planning ahead to my next grow, and what I can do better. I have been enjoying myself and I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to answer my questions! I am having a blast and am excited to see what this lady will give up in a few weeks!

Völlig ohne Probleme hat die Dame die Saison überstanden und ist pünktlich 2. Oktoberwoche fertig geworden.

So these ladies are in full swing of flower and the stretch I have tucked any branches I can under my netting too spread out the plants and too fill the tents canapy they are growing about 1 or 2 cm every other day at the moment so tucking under is the order of the week Really into the massive stretch now I am having too move the climate control probe and thermostat every day now and these girls will soon cover the WiFi camera too , probably growing around 2 or 3 cm per 24 hours at this stage , " day 4 of week 5 " The tent is filling up nicely but the fbt7 is a clear winner so far , be is my cock up of snapping the main stem and fixing it ? The ftb7 is double the size of all the other 3 plants and is a very nice little bush , the smoothie has been very consistently healthy and vigorous and is around 22cm now and is one I did not lst , the BlackBerry has finally woken up and is now the same height as the others another plant I didn't lst , the c1 started very vigorously and was strong , them week 3 started too show signs of very early flower , she is now is fully fledged flower at week 5 and looking fantastic , and I was lucky enough too get all the side branches out and bend over the main cola too the netting and has made up for in lst what it lacked in size due too the early flowering ,

Day 95 / FL day 15, Gave both plants a heavy defoliation to allow light into all bud sites. I think I'm pushing my luck with the amount of stress I've been giving these plants. But I also think they can take it. Only time will tell. Day 98 / FL day 18, Plants have recovered well after heavy defoliation. Lots of new leaf growth. Hopefully this will help to increase nug size. Day 101 / FL day 21, Topped dressed plants with a 3/4 inch layer of living soil for a little bit of extra nutrients. Waiting until week 5 of flower to add another round of Gaia Green dry amendments.
