Did a heavy defoliation and put the trellis net in place for the screen of green. Hopefully flipping to flower in 2 weeks or less.

Howdy folks 🙌, been a good week for them, she is gaining weight 😍 Major development in its smell, she smells a lot more citrusy initially with sweet undertones. MUCH HAPPY 😋 She has been a pleasure to deal with and can't wait for her second run already 😄 Her clone is over a month old now and is doing very well. Green Gelatos are over due a flip switch but I'll wait till this round is finished. Will stop the Pk 13/14 now and A+B too. That's it for this week. Stay safe, cyall later 🙏

Been topping a lot of the highest nodes, trying to keep it a little shorter before moving to bloom tent. They grow so fast with hydroponics. Basically repeated last weeks nutrients, there was no issues and didn’t do anything but top to keep em shorter, didn’t even top up water for 7 days straight...

Thank you. Growing cannabis is an art that seems to evolve as you learn it. While it may only take a little knowledge to get started, It seems that this may take a life-time to perfect (doubt I'll ever make that category, but I will certainly try). So thank-you to the community that Shares, Comments, Follows, and Likes. Your efforts in any of these actions make these journals a worth-while and perfect way for us all to learn. I personally appreciate it. Also a huge Thanks has to go out to Grow Diaries for making this community even possible. Your efforts to supply the data storage alone is more than enough, but you the fact that you dont stop there and constantly try to improve the experience even more makes this my favorite community to to share on. And then lastly, but certainly not least, a heartfelt Thank-you to Fast Buds for selecting me as 2nd place in a photo contest and making these seeds available, I'll try my best to honor the gift and opportunity to grow these. Your sponsorship in keeping the community active here is an in-valuable learning tool of its own. And then your branding/research helps give me confidence in knowing that I am working with great genetics before I even start my grow. ---------------------------- Germination Start 2/13/24 to 2/18/24 2/19 to 2/25 Veg Days 1 to 7 Week 0 to 1 Germination took 6 days from dropping in water to transplanting into 1 gallon pots. 29hours in a glass of 6.3ph room temp RO water. Something I would only attempt if they were both floating. They were,so leaving them that long they were able to crack open. I then placed both in paper towels wet with the glass water and pasted to the sides of the glass for 3 days (1 day too long in retrospect). I placed in rapid rooter pods and closed with toothpick tips. They popped out from the pods 1 day later but I gave them 2 days before transplant. Video: Incubator water level is key for rapid rooter pods to wick properly during incubation. Transplant to 1 gal pots: I am using a 50/50, 50%perlite/50%soil with a .5lb of dolomite lime and a .5ml of flora micro added to .5 gallon of RO water (Im mixing 2 gallons of soil total so the water to soil ratio is 1/4 of the total medium volume) to achieve a soil tested ph of 6.4. I am using a 50/50 soil/perlite mix because I plan to use these in auto pots. I also used about 1 cup of the same soil mix water to pour around the plant after transplant; you can see how the perlite rises to the top where I did this. I sprayed two domes and covered - I plan to leave covered for the first week. Feed: I kept them under the domes and sprayed every day that I didnt feed them, to keep humidity up while I let them find water in the soil. By the end of the week I took the domes off and took pictures. Feed this week was another 1 cup of 6.3ph water 5 days after transplant. Feed plan next week will increase the amount to 2 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I want to see the water run through so if I need to use more than 2 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefully spreading the roots out while doing it. Veg Plan: I plan on 8 colas for each plant. So that will be 3 topping days and a total of 7 cuts. I will want to cut the first time on day 21 if I have 5+ nodes. I will transfer to 5 gallon auto pots with-in 1 week of the first topping. Once I have 3 nodes of new growth past the first topping, I will top those two branches to the first node again. (that's 3 cuts total by this point) Then, after 3 new nodes of growth after that, I will do a last topping on the 4 branches. (4 new cuts added to make a total of 7 cuts and 8 colas) I will train the branches using LST/HST with tie downs as soon as I can after the first topping day to help maintain the branches growing where I want them to. I will also introduce an adjustable tomato ring after they have settled into the 5 gallon forever pots to provide support and mobility Hopefully all goes well, and I will have 1 to 2 weeks of growth before flip after week 8. I think it sounds more ambitious than it really is, but if you follow this journal, we will see together.

Incredibly, they both gave almost the same, 70 grams each. good quality but it was below expectations I felt a difference compared to the autos in the first round. maybe my fault or genetics 🤔😅🤪

A lot of rain and wind, continuously. Temps have dropped as well. I’m reading another week or two to chop this plants. Sativa dominant hybrids did the best, the Fastberry and the banana purple punch did not really develop as the other two. In specifics the cbd crack developed sizable buds, and the blue dream as well, the flowers are not as developed tight and dense as in the indoor grow. A bit of fox-tailing nothing too expressive. Minimal work, as per the setup chosen, an no extra nutes this week.

Mar 31st Week 16 Mar 30th changed nutrients First 2 days will be straight Dense Bud Compactor @ 900-1000 ppm I use 1 gram / litre On April 1st I will add all other nutrients to the existing solution and check ppm level is not to strong April 1st Changed nutrients from straight Dense Bud Compactor to a full nutrient mix I used 8 litres of fresh water + 6 litres of the Dense Bud solution to make a mixer that is @ 1100 ppm

Just watering plain water, im thinking this is the last week before harvest, im checking out the trichomes every other day to look when theyre ready. Everyday theres about 5-10 leaves which are so curled up and dried that i can just rip them loose super easily.

PURPLE KUSH / KANNABIA SEEDS WEEK #10 OVERALL WEEK #9 VEG This week she has stretched and she filled in with some new tops the Bud Clips really help open the plant canopy for additional growth where the plant may not of the Clips weren't applied. They work great haven't had any issues using them. Once again I've been LST training and topping her heavily to control her height. Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you KANNABIA 😊!!! BUDTRAINER.COM BUD CLIPS PURPLE KUSH / KANNABIA SEEDS

Still my best lady out of my first grow. Buds production looking really good, still some white hairs but I'm expecting that to change quickly. Trichome production looks fantastic, starting to cloud up so will flush her soon. Hoping to harvest around the 21st.

Week 9 Pure water feeding

Fantastic result for a small plant in a 20L pot. Very nice citrus/orange terps with great bud density and colour

Chugging along

she is still up and going and has a cool bluish purple hue going on and is really hard to get a photo. she has been on the flush for 4 weeks now. ice cold water to get those fades. she stinks and would def recommend a carbon filter. until next week. I will be ready when she is ready.

they are growing nicely, cant wait for the warmer weather to set in so I can plant these girls outdoors. Had a fungus gnat issue that i swatted down with some physical traps and Raid green Earth, see video for details. Also problems with 2 spotted spider mites so I deployed my troops, predatory spider mites. They should get rid of the problem for me.
