This weeks focus is balancing ph of my homemade Texas Tea nutrient and creating the perfect “Tropical” environment for my babies to thrive in. Incorporated Advanced nutrients up/down to assist with ph also helped lower the PPM. They are loving the vegetation box I built!

It was such a nice experience for me with this strain, first time ever growing her, she had a little bit of long internodes and thought she wasn't gonna be very productive, however the nuggets are so so hard and compact and the quality is just brutal, doesn't even look like she's s been outdoor grown, I love this strain for the rare strong smell like very sweet and floral with that strange diesel notes mix the sweet tones, I would love be growing her my whole life, I definitely will keep growing this lady FOR SURE!. thank you so much and hope you guys enjoy! 💎🙏🔝💚

7/18 Plants are looking great. I was able to rearrange the plants so they have a little bit more space and so I can get around every plant. I have small random pest damage (i.e. I caught a four lined plant bug while hunting jpn beetles) but not enough h to warrant treatment. I will probably spray before flower. Sun's out amd plants were praying. I rotated a couple and it only took a few hours for them to "straighten out." I went to look again rhis morning and made the final determination to expand the cage. I'm looking for the 2x4's and the wire in the next couple days. The work that ive done now will but me sometime. I wonder how this rain impacted my soil. 7/19 Plants are looking fantastic. The stretch is starting. One purple punch looks like it's beginning to flower. I think I'm entering the transition period. Jpn beetle damage is evident but not significant. I defoliated a leaf with a a leafminwr or something in it. It's so much easier to get around the plants now. I'm seeing some chunks missing sporadically though. Went to the roses out back and found TONS of jpn beetleson top of each other reproducing. They destroyed that rose bush. I'm going to keep it as a trap plant. My dad's girlfriend wanted to spray it but that doesn't make sense as theflowers are all gone. Dad's grabbing the materials to extend the cage today I think. Right now I can get around every plant but the two big ones in the back. I just cant get to the backs of them and they are huge. Almost reaching the top of the cage. A 4'-6' extension will do wonders in flower. Can't wait. UPDATE: Dad got the 2x4's and we assembled the extension and attached it. He's grabbing the wire as I type this. This worked out beautifully. I had no idea how big the blueberry cheese in the 50 gallon was! This extension (4ft i think) is PERFECT! Then I can get a little extra wire and pull it out if I wanted to. I think I have another 2x4 that I'm going to use in the middle. Lots of great pics and a video I'll upload tomorrow. Hot af today and humidity still super high. Even the commercial dudes was surprised I don't have wpm l and that judging by some of my plants structure that I may do better than I think. I certainly hope so. I WATERED 3 GALLONS OVER THE WHOLE GARDEN. The blueberry cheese in smart pots were drooping. They drink far more water than tje others. I would've given more but we are supposed to have thunderstorms. I left my back tarp off for the night. It will increase airflow and wind is down. I feel like this is going to be my year. 7/20 I updated and loaded everything on the app but notjing would save. Did it again in the website hopfully this saves i didnt put it all up. Didn't water the plants today. Bags seemed okay weight wise. Good thing I did the extension yesterday because those three plants were drooping they were so thirsty. I focused most of the water yesterday on those plants that needed it. The others were somewhat dry but still had some weight. Like i said the blc drinks much more water than any of the other plants. I'm impressed with the growth I'm seeing. Especially since I have been being very stingy with the water and I've only fed like twice and that was just the kelp me/you and big bloom in negligible amounts. I'm watching for deficiencies. I'm just not seeing them. I'm picking up the wire and finishing the extension and then rearranging things. I'll update. UPDATE: WATERED 4 GALLONS CONCENTRATING ON THE PLANTS THAT WERE DROOPING THE MOST. FINISHED ENCLOSURE AND INCREASED PLANT SPACE. TRELLIS WILL GO UP THIS WEEK. VIDEOS WILL BE UPLOADED TOMORROW. 7/21 I should've watered more volume last night. I noticed two plants that seemed much lighter than the rest. After some deliberation I gave them each a half gallon of water. One was the purple punch in the 10 that's huge amd the other was that huge blueberry cheese. I think I'm going to swap places with them, take out a pallet and get some other way to elevate that ONE plant and I'll have even more room. Then I'll add my supports. It's a dream working in there now. I noticed some small interior leaves being used up and dieing. I defoliated them but it was only a couple. I'll need to start nutes at some point. Doesn't need it yet though. I'm going to add some kelp me/you for the heat stress. I need to get the watering down better but it's more difficult when they each have different needs. I kinda have to read the plant. I'd rather be overwatered than underwatered. I tried to upload what I could but some won't. UPDATE: I went over to clip off some fencing that was doubled up AND just to check on tge girls. Found two caterpillars (small but hairy so they were older not the inch worms and possibly what has been contributing to damage on those plants. Things are spread out so it will be harder for insects to move from plant to plant and I have better air flow. I worry that leaving my tarp off might lead to high winds and plants not able to take it buf I digress. I'll add supports later. Plants are huge and drinking far more water than I've been giving them. When I got there several were drooped right over and dry as a bone. The bags are essentially all roots now. I mixed up 8 gallons of water and split it between the plants. I gave less to the two Co trainer plants that weren't drooping and the 10 I watered yesterday that wasn't drooping but for the most part the ones that needed if got at least a gallon or more. The others a little under a gallon. It might rain A LITTLE tonight too. Oh, and since it's been so hot I added 1/2 tsp per gallon of kelp me kelp you to help the plants deal with heat stress. I also noticed that some of the very bottom interior leaves are being used up. I have a feeling ill need to switch to nutes pretty soon. Plus I need to suppirt those plants if I'm going to leave that tarp off and Gove them air. Took a video. But it won't upload here. I'll have to wait till tomm. 7/22 Didn't have much timevthis morning bit I dod a video. Boy those plants loved that water and that kelp. This morning everyone was standing straight up at attention. Supposed to get rain last night but didn't. Good thing I watered. I think I'm going to up the water next watering and then again to the 10% mark if necessary. Especially with the Blueberry cheeses. I'm noticing that a FEW INTERIOR leaves are showing nute deficiencies so I'm probably going to have to start feeding soon. I'll update later. UPDATE: Went back over and cut off the extra wire. I'm going to need to water more volume. Specifically on two plants. The two huge blueberry cheese in 20 gallon smart bags dries out much faster than the rest. I'll have to out that on a different schedule or increase the amount given. Next watering will be 1.5 or 2 gallons a plant and it might be tomorrow from what I was seeing. It's super hot and with the added airflow the bags dry out faster. I also went through EACH plant looking for pests and defoliating old leaves that needed it. Plants are still nice and green but a VERY few older interior leaves are showing deficiencies. I know this is Normal especially since they are trying n g to transition to flower. I also saw pest damage on a couple plants. Four lined plant bug. I already found the one on the other plant and killed it but I'm considering doing a spray before flower. I'm thinking either captain Jack as a "catch all", BT which works great but mostly just on pillars or the organocide bee safe 3 in one pesticide. I also have pyrethium and other things. Thus far picking things off manually has been good enough. At the very least they will get an application of BT very soon. 7/23 Held off on watering this morning. Supposed to get thunder storms I DID split a gallon with two blueberry cheese that were the lightest in the 20 gallon smart pots. Thet drink way more. My water volume is going to need to increase. We haven't had nearly enough rain. I'm going to bump it up to 1.5 to 2 gallons each plant which will be 10% for the 20s and a little less for the others. I'm still seeing various pest damage. Nothing bad but I found another couples leaves that were chomped on by a four lined plant bug so I'm debating applying something tonight when I water. I'm also noticing old leaves being used up and some interior leaves showing slight deficiencies. It will be time to start nutes soon. I'll update as I go. UPDATE: GOT THE FEELING I NEEDED TO CHECK THE PLANTS. SOMETHING DODNT LOOK RIGHT ON THE CAMS. WENT OVER AND EVERY PLANT BUT THE TWO I SPLIT A GALLON WITH AND THE PLANT IN THE 50 WERE DROOPED RIGHT OVER. LIFELESS. I SHOULD'VE WATERED THIS MORNING BUT I DIDNT HAVE TIME. I FIGURED THEY COULD WAIT UNTIL NIGHT. EACH PLANT GOT 1.5 GALLONS AT LEAST. I USED SIXTEEN OR SEVENTEEN GALLONS ON THE GARDEN. I GAVE EACH CONTAINER PLANT ONE GALLON AND GOT RUN OFF FROM BOTH. IM NOTICING SKIGHT FADING IN LEAVES BUT IM NOT INTRODUCING NUTES TO UNDERWATERED PLANTS. I THINK 10% IS GONNA BE TGE MAGIC NUMBER. 2 GALLONS EACH. EVEN THE 10 GALLON SMART POT. ALMLST AS BIG AS THE 30S BUT DRIES OUT QUICKER. 7/24 Plants looked fantastic this morning. Defoliated a few leaves that needed it. Showed my commercial buddy and he said things looked fantastic. Since the soils still holding nutes and I'm not seeing many deficiencies I may hold off on feeding. I'm starting early flower now. I will be using nutes soon. I think ive got the watering schedule pretty much down.

Still putting on girth(weight) I can honestly say this is a powerhouse of a plant fattening as quick as big autos ,I will grow it again and FIM it, it's a strain that's very forgiving, and doing great in organic soil,all mix with @Biotabs and @Ecotrive's Biosys and some @Plagron naturals,and minerals, and just water when needed. Thanks for your support 🙏

We are at the end of fruiting and they are getting ripped! Beautiful sweet creamy smell mixed with a green sour. I believe at least from the smell pound cake will be one of my favourites, but let's wait for the smoke test. Nothing major to report, all the blumat issues where fixed and also the nutrient deficiencies. I'll not be adding anything else other than water until they finish. Just had the final defoliation to improve air circulation because they are so small that the branches overlapped a lot.my next auto's I'll just let them grow naturally because, from what I've seen and read I think I trained too much and that will impact production in a bad way. The poundC#1 really became delayed because of the dey period that it has gone through and now I'm hopping that I can manage to harvest at the same time without major losses because I have to dry on the same tent for now. It is the only place than I can maintain the ideal conditions.

Einen wunderschönen guten Tag, liebe Grow-Community, und herzlich willkommen zur 24. Woche meines kleinen Outdoorprojekts! Diese Woche war wirklich wieder alles gegeben: Freude, Sturm, ein ungewollter Pre-Harvest plus das versprochene Terp-Update und ich habe mir sagen lassen, dass wir heute zwei Gastauftritte im Programm haben, aber dazu spĂ€ter mehr. Bleibt also am besten dran. Fangen wir mit den erfreulichen Dingen an, und das sind in diesem Report einfach die Damen! Ich war ja zwischendurch echt zwiegespalten, ob dieses doch etwas gewartete Projekt FrĂŒchte tragen wird oder in einer Hermie-Schimmel-Hölle mit Popcorn-Nugs endet. Umso begeisterter bin ich, dass mir zweiteres doch (stand jetzt) erspart geblieben ist. Und was soll ich sagen, liebe Growcommunity: In meinem bescheidenen Heim duftet es nach Cali, und wie 
 Grund dafĂŒr sind: Filmore Slim (Purple City Genetics): (Mac 121 × Purple Punch) × Blueprint. Aussehen: Sie zeigt eindeutig ihre Mac-Genetik. Golfballgroße und steinharte BlĂŒten, welche durch ihren dichten Harzbesatz doch sehr an ihre Elterngenetik erinnern. Dies in Kombination mit dem schönen stacking sowie den nun immer mehr purzelnden BlĂ€ttern lĂ€sst einem wirklich das Wasser im Mund zusammenlaufen. Terps: Bisschen Cookies, gefolgt von floralen Noten, die ins zitronig-beerige gehen. Bitter Orange (Symbiotic Genetics): Mimosa V6 × Wedding Cake. Aussehen: Schön enges Staking, der Wuchs erinnert sehr an die Wedding Cake. Sie hatte ihre Startschwierigkeiten, aber beim Anblick der mit Harz ĂŒberzogenen BlĂŒten mit leichtem Purple (Tendenz steigend) lĂ€sst sich das vergessen. Terps: Eine selbstbewusste Mischung aus orangenen Nim2 und Mintz, welche lange am Finger anhaftet. Das in Kombination mit einem Harzbesatz, welcher sich nicht verstecken braucht, macht sie zu einem Washer-Kandidaten. Lemon Tree 2.0 (Silent Seeds): X-Dark Lime #20 × Original Lemon Tree. Aussehen: Und auch hier ist das hĂ€ssliche Entlein doch noch zum Hingucker geworden. Ein tiefgrĂŒnes BlĂ€tterdach, welches von gleichmĂ€ĂŸig bestĂŒckten lilafarbenen Bussen durchbrochen wird. Terps: Was mit einer floralen Leichtigkeit beginnt, entwickelt sich immer mehr zu einer Mischung aus Zitrone, gefolgt von einem leichten Pinien-Abgang. Sehr interessant! Hella Jelly (Humboldt Seed Company): Notorious THC × Very Cherry. Aussehen: Buds the size of your forearm (shout-out an Urban Remo). Aber es stimmt, she’s stacking! Schön gleichmĂ€ĂŸiger Wuchs, wenn auch etwas höherer BlĂ€tteranteil als ihre Mitstreiterinnen, dafĂŒr gepudert mit Trichomen. Terps: Denkt an eine Packung mit ErdbeersĂŒĂŸigkeiten (fast schon ein wenig kĂŒnstlich). Dazu gesellen sich Zitronenaromen mit leichter Candynote. Auch sie ist ein heißer AnwĂ€rter auf einen Washing-Platz. Kid Pambele (Black Tuna): K.O. × Sherbert Shocker. Aussehen: Was soll ich euch sagen, was ihr nicht schon mit euren eigenen Augen gesehen habt? Sie ist eine Schönheit! Tief-lilane-BlĂ€tter zieren sperförmige, wunderschöne und zu guter Letzt von Harz nur so triefende BlĂŒten. Wahrer Augenschmaus! Terps: frisch floral (wie ein schönes SommerparfĂŒm), geruchstechnisch wie Zitrus, OrangenblĂŒten und eine an Vetiver erinnernde Zitrusnote und irgendwo bilde ich mir noch etwas Muskat ein. Wirklich spannend! Limonada de Mango F2 (Black Tuna): Mango Lemonade #26 × Mango Lemonade #51 Aussehen: Macht durch ihre Haze-Genetik den wildesten Eindruck (sĂ€ulenförmige BlĂŒten mit fein-fingrigen BlĂ€ttern, welche sich im Herbst in ein dunkles Lila verwandeln). Dicke Harzköpfe, welche mich von Hash trĂ€umen lassen. Terps: Auch hier kann sie ihren Amnesie-Background nicht verstecken. Limoni-frisch mit leichtem Anis-Abgang. Dazu gesellen sich tropische Aromen. Grappelz (Black Tuna): Apple Shocker #97 (Apple Fritter × Shocker) × Tropicanna Punch #61. Aussehen: Ähnelt auch sehr der Hella Jelly (eher ein lateraler Wuchs), hier aber mit leichten Purplenoten in den oberen BlĂ€ttern. Terps: Hier kann es sein, dass ich mich vom Namen hab beeinflussen lassen, aber ich bilde mir Noten von grĂŒner Apfelschale ein, was mit einer leichten Candy-Begleitung fast schon an die grĂŒnen Apfelringe erinnert. Ich hoffe, ihr konntet mit meiner Beschreibung etwas anfangen und habt nun Ein ungefĂ€hres Bild, wie es in meiner Nachbarschaft riecht. Aber kein Licht ohne Schatten. Der Samstag hat leider ein weiteres Opfer gekostet 
 Was vom Wetter her eine ruhige Woche sein sollte, endete am Samstag leider mit einem unwetterartigen Sturm. Und hier eine Lektion, die mich schon mein ganzes Growerleben begleitet: Sei nicht faul! Noch besser: Schiebe nichts auf! Storytime: Als ich morgens auf den Balkon kam, war mir klar: Ich muss die Kleinen vor dem Wind schĂŒtzen. Aber erstmal ein KĂ€ffchen, dachte ich. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt sahen alle Pflanzen soweit gesund aus. Nachdem ich besagten Kaffee getrunken hatte und noch etwas verpennt durch das Handy gescrollt hatte, kam ich zurĂŒck und musste sehen, dass es mittlerweile einen Trieb der Lemontre erwischt hatte. Was aufgrund dessen, dass ich dies wahrscheinlich hĂ€tte verhindern können, doch nochmal besonders Ă€rgerlich erscheint. Aber gut 
 Ich habe den Trieb abgeschnitten und unter dem Mikroskop begutachtet. Ein Großteil der Trichome war milchig und eigentlich keins bernsteinfarben. Mit anderen Worten: Das zu rauchen wird wie ein Espresso zu viel. Aber wir werden sehen. ZusĂ€tzlich habe ich einen kleinen Windfang errichtet, um Schlimmeres zu vermeiden. Ich bin nun dazu ĂŒbergegangen, statt dem normal verwendeten Teichwasser nun Leitungswasser zum Gießen zu verwenden. Einfach fĂŒr das bisschen extra Calcium (aschebedingt). Die Milch hat einen Ă€hnlichen Effekt, fungiert aber auch als Fungizid. Bevor der hier nie Spaß jetzt viel zu lang wird, noch eine kleine Aussicht auf nĂ€chste Woche: Ich plane, den Kleinen noch etwas Gutes zu tun, habe in dem Sinne noch ein letztes Mal eine frische Jauche angesetzt, welche ich mit einer SSt (Sproud-seed-tea) ergĂ€nzen werde. Hierzu keimen bereits grĂŒne Linsen. Was das genau ist, wo die Vorteile sind und wie man das Ganze herstellt, erfahrt ihr dann in der nĂ€chsten Woche. Das war’s wieder fĂŒr diese Woche. Ich hoffe, es war diesmal nicht zu langwierig. Euch noch einen angenehmen Restsonntag und einen guten Start in die Woche. Peace.

Hallo to You all my familly and usual visitors. Thank you for stopping by and all the likes and comments....You make my day! According to the trichomes the Blue cheese is already overdue for harvest but i wanted her to grow as big as i could ;) You can see the trichomes photos i know its a bad quality but im actually happy i maneged to take them pictures It was a pain in the arse to make them photos as bad as they are xD On Black Friday i ordered a better quality microscope with options of taking photos so in future harvests it will improve. I started the flush just yesterday and plan to dark her on the 5th of december (or so) As you can clearly see thanks to my great skill and experience in growing i managed to match the plants leaves with the colours of the actual golden grater ;P What a great achievement and view to beholde :D It was a joy to work with Mars Hydro and their equipment in this grow. A big thanks to the Mars Hydro team for this opportunity, you truly provide first class grow kits and lamps. That's it for this week folks, have a wonderful week and please come beck visit in a week for the chopping of this work of gardening art :)

Pheno 1 dark purple : On the nose, it reveals a sharp burst of fresh lemon, layered with a powerful eucalyptus aroma that’s both invigorating and camphorous. A truly refreshing and vibrant terpene profile😈🍋 Pheno 2 Green : this one is a real surprise! If I close my eyes, it’s like Nutella! It’s as if you’ve just walked into a kitchen where hazelnuts have been freshly roasted đŸ€€đŸŒ° Pheno 3 light purple : It’s a mix of the first two with a hint of amarena cherry at the end🍒🍧

Kicking off week 5. Did some extra work on the LST. Making sure the light penetrates all bud sites. I now understand that my initial goals are too far from what I actually will harvest..mainly due the PH issue we faced on week 4. Let's see how it goes.
