Day 37 - Everything looks good.... they are drinking so much.... i built a bit more stable light setup, and i'll need to buy afew more plugs and stuff, to fill it out ...... i organised all the 2700k globes, ready to swap in..... still waiting on the exhaust fan, so i'll keep em in "grow" mode another week or 2 .... i'm vaping a leaf or 2, and drinking "green tea hot chocolates" .... it is so delicious in hot chocolate .... my health has picked up since starting the vape/drinks... the 21 thc/19 cbd is supa healthy ... Day 38 - Getting them ready for Flower, noticed they are lacking in nutrients, so i started em on the heavier dutch master gold flower nutrients. Day 40 - Added some pics. (they look droopy because they in night mode, just turned on lights for pic) - Started them on 12/12 flower, still working on getting all the lights, gear, and globes, for the right spectrum and amount of light.... atm got - 7x 2700k (click) , 2x 6400k (osram), + 60w light panel .... i'll go get some more gear today and hope to expand it to 10x 2700k , 2x 6400k ...... I put the exhaust filter fan on seperate power, so it doesn't go on/off with the timer, but stays on all the time.... it totally fixed up any odour problems, haha ....... Added some different pics for my light spectrum ... etc..... the outside winter temp is now at 40-60oF (5-15oC) so with the 12/12h, the temp inside the tent is dropping to 60-80oF (18-22oC), abit low, but flowering is supposed to be in winter, so idk, see how it goes..... I'm new to growing, so idk how this will work out....... just working it as i go.... i noticed afew spots on a leaf, so i upped the neuts abit more, they are still drinking like fish, huge amounts.... Day 40 late - new vids - Got the extra gear and installed it all... redesigned the initial setup, refined it with proper measurements, had to get my steel rule out, lol....... got the 12 leds in and running, 10x 2700k clicks, and 2x 6400k osrams, with the panel..... it's lookin beautiful and got the exhaust on 24 hrs now, all working perfect with 12/12 timer.... they are forming a few spots on leaves, so hammering the nute water into them now... they are drinkin 1-2 litre of nute water a day each.... (nute water = Dutch mater gold one grow/flower, 800-1000 ppm 6 PH) 😎 Some details about lights.... i did some maths on it, and included some handy pics..... because i'm using cheap leds, i'm keeping the distance at 25cm, they are leds so they won't burn, and it massively increases the lumens/lux/Par, and with my home built light setup, the leds are spread out enough to keep it lower.... worked out good..... something of note is that all the led globes are built/made in china... however different marketing/selling companies from around the world... and the german osrams are 1w leds ... by far the most superior, but anyone can design and send the requirements to china to build em, haha) it's not a contest, we all work together.... haha.... the person with the best led light globes gets my business, because i want the best for my babies.... :) (let me explain- 1w led vs 0.5 w led, the watt of the led projects the light, lumens, LX/PAR etc much further the higher the watt of the led....my 600w panel has 0.5w leds, the philips has 0.75, the osrams have 1w leds..... ) each globe philips (dutch)- 10.5w internal - 14 leds 0.75w 1055 lumens each globe osram (german)- 10.5w internal - 10 leds 1w 1080 lumens each globe click (cheap)- 9w internal - 16 leds 0.56w 800 lumens light panel - 70w - 600w 30 red - 8 red 12 blue - 8 white 7500k 1 ir - 1 uv = 20x blue 6400k - 38x red 2700k internal - 60 double leds - 120x0.5w 6000 lm

Day 32. Plants have begun preflower. Things are progressing nicely. 1 plant still struggling. Defoliation applied to keep things tidy in growtent. Still there is quite alot of growing to be done so hopefully everything fits. 😀

Day 37: Watered each plant with 0.8L with nuts 1516 ppm, 3221 us/cm, 3.2 EC Still giving sensi grow to the gorilla cookies Day 40: Watered each plant with 0.8L with nuts 1594 ppm, 3391 us/cm, 3.3 EC Still giving sensi grow to the gorilla cookies Did some defoliation

End of week 3 in bloom , I’ve got most of the lollipoping done , canopy has filled in really well , lots of bud sites , I will remove some of the shade leaf out of the canopy in another week , stretch is done so just want to give the buds as much light as possible. I had a discussion with my grow shop rep and we discussed water times and schedules with the need for the rock wool to dry out so I dialed my feed schedule back from 6 feedings in 24 hrs to 3 , it’s been a week and the room looks great , final weight and time will tell me if feeding them less often is better.

420 Fastbuds Week 6 Gorilla Zkittlez Auto What up grow fam. These two girls are growing absolutely amazing. Very easy to grow up to this point. I did add 1tsp of each of General Hydroponics 3 part flora series to give them an added boost if needed. The colors they're starting to show on the leafs and flowers are mesmerizing. Starting to give off a smell so one could only hope it gets better from here on out. All in all Happy Growing.

Slow grower , tried my best to keep it healthy .. average at best but I’ll take it

Day 50 Flower (Day 92) Today is the first day of week eight of flower, and we're in overtime. According to the breeder, last week was supposed to be the final week of flower since this is a fast strain with Ruderalis in it, but the girls are still far from done. The right girl is still mostly clear, and the left girl has a bunch of fattening up to do before I'll even look at her trichomes. All I did today was to give the right girl 3 liters of pH 6.3 water. I did some bud photography as well, but I haven't processed those images yet. Day 51 Flower (Day 93) I'm starting to see a fade in some of the right girl leaves but nothing major yet. I gave her 3 liters of pH 6.1 water and called it a day. Tomorrow I have to hook up her drip irrigation system so I have a few days to tweak it before I'm off on vacation. Day 52 Flower (Day 94) Today, I finally got around to hooking up the drip irrigation system to the right girl. Setting it up was straightforward - put four drip emitters around the plant, run a hose from the emitters to a 120 l water barrel, connect the hose to a pump, set up how much water you want per day, done. For a long time, the right girl has been drinking 3 liters of water per day. One filling in my small 3-liter watering can. I figured, though, that I should first check if the can is 3 liters in the first place, so I filled it up and then measured how much water there was in it. It turns out that the can only contain 2.5 liters. Chinese quality... Anyway, no big deal when I've been hand-watering, but great to know now, as the system would have overwatered otherwise. I set up the system to irrigate 2.4 liters per day, slightly less than currently, but I think she will soon start to drink less as she matures and starts fading. In any case, I rather come home to a slightly thirsty plant than to one that has drowned. It's a bit clunky to use a timer-based drip system as it doesn't adapt to the plant. That's why I'm currently designing and building my own system, based on a Raspberry Pi, which irrigates based on moisture levels in the soil. The aim is to maintain the perfect soil moisture in each pot, no matter how much each girl drinks. This concept s precisely how a low-tech Blumat system work, and I even have one of those, but I can't use it for practical reasons, so I'm "stuck" at building my own hi-tech solution instead ;) The left girl in the small tent is just doing her thing, slowly fattening up. She is foxtailing hard, though, but I'm not surprised, considering all the stress she went through. No big deal, I'll turn those buds into a tincture instead. The flower that got burned a bit in my main tent is also foxtailing but way less. I also got delivered and installed a fire extinguisher ball in my small tent. Now each of the tents should be protected from accidental fire. I have to admit that the thought of leaving my tents up and running alone for a week makes me a wee bit nervous, so I'm taking the precautions I can. I never had any problems in the past, and I like to keep it that way. Day 53 Flower (Day 95) There isn't much to do this late in flower now when I don't even have to water anymore. Although, I am monitoring the soil moisture levels to ensure the irrigation systems work as they should. Today I also changed my Bluetooth Thermo/Hygrometers to WiFi versions since they allow me to remote monitor the tents when I'm off on vacation next week. They are currently showing the temps as high, but since I put them all the way up in the tent, it makes sense that it is hot up there. I will move them down to canopy level before I leave. I could also finalize our travel plans today after going back and forth, making plans, and changing them again for days. Next week, we're off to Iceland, where we will pick up a motorhome at the airport and then drive around as the wind and mood take us. We have been to Iceland before, but the place is so unique that we can't wait to return. It will be interesting (and a bit scary) to see how the girls will manage while I'm gone, but I believe that I've done enough to keep them safe and sound in my absence. A friend of mine can drop by our apartment and look at the girls should it be necessary, but I think they'll be alright. Day 54 Flower (Day 96) Last night, just before heading to bed, I checked the girls to ensure that the irrigation systems worked correctly. A good decision as there was a big puddle of water in the right girl's tent. Fuuuuuuu... So at 4 in the morning, I had to remove that water. Great. It turned out to be around 2.5 liters, and I guessed that the system wasn't working correctly by watering too much. Oh well, it was late, and I decided to deal with that the next day. When I opened the tent today, there was a new puddle even though I had turned off the system the night before. Huh??? I soon found the problem, though. Each drip emitter has a rubber membrane that keeps the emitter closed whenever the pump isn't running. That's in theory. In practice, however, the membrane doesn't close up properly, and water can flow through. I filled up my big 120-liter water barrel yesterday, which caused the water level to be above the level of the emitters. Considering the leaky emitters, we now had a water siphon system running, pulling water from the barrel and continuously dripping even though the pump wasn't running. Luckily I already had a low and squat 50-liter reservoir at hand, so I put the pump in that one instead, as it is lower than the emitters. That should solve that problem. I hope. (Yes, I know it is terrible with a white reservoir as it enables algae growth but it is all that I have right now and I'll throw a blanket over the reservoir before we leave.) However, from this experience, I decided to turn on the system for 24 hours, collect all water, and measure the exact amount. Honestly, I should have done that from the start already. Oh well, we live and learn. Anyway, I removed the system and taped it to the inside of a bucket, which collects the water, and tomorrow I'll measure it. Besides all this fun irrigation action, I didn't do anything else with the girls today. Day 55 Flower (Day 97) Things are looking better in the tent today. I left the irrigation system running for 24 hours, and there was no more siphoning happening after I switched to the lower water reservoir, so that's good. However, the system was still overwatering by half a liter. Not too bad on a daily basis, but as I'm gone for a week, I need it to perform better. I dialed it in by adding one more dripper but decreasing the frequency. I'm currently using five drip emitters, and they run for six minutes every 12 hours. I did three test runs (simulating a full 24 hours run cycle), and the average water volume is 2.43 liters per 24 hours. Spot on. Day 56 Flower (Day 98) The last day of the eighth week of flower, and everything is moving along nicely. A bit slow since the girls were supposed to be done already, but I'm in no real hurry. I'm off tomorrow for a week of vacation, and I hope I have taken all precautions to keep the girls safe and sound. They should be alright, but a friend will drop by in a few days to make sure. I haven't checked the trichomes in a few days, but that can wait until I return. All I did today was to check that the irrigation systems are running correctly. The cheap system for the small girl is a bit finicky to adjust, but the other system is running just fine now when I have the other water reservoir.

7/5 Plants look great after the last few days of rain. Nothing broken despite the storm. I think more rain is in the forecast but at some point I'll need to spray. I'll update later today. Went back over at 4pm to check. Soil was still damp with 40% chance of rain so I held off watering. First day I've never watered. Noticed a few more leaves turning yellow and falling off on the middle and bottom interior of some plants. It looks like nitrogen deficiency. Can't notice unless you get right in there. Noticed leaf hoppers and other minor pest damage. Spraying soon. 7/6 Hose wasn't working as the water needed to be shut off. Soil still seemed damp so everything should be fine. Temps are MUCH lower (66 right now). Still have internal lower/middle leaves turning yellow. Noticed that I hadn't fed in five days. That could have something to do with it. Really looks like nitrogen deficiency. Fed two gallons to the garden this morning and will monitor. Humidity is stupid high. It read like 90 something percent but it's not raining. I plan to spray tonight. Due to other issues I haven't been on top of my game as much as I should be. Will update later. Oh and I do measure in teaspoons not tablespoons. I'm just an idiot. 7/7 Water is still off. I carried water to the plants and watered approx. a gallon a big plant. Less for smaller. Lots more yellow leaves on my blueberry's. They fall off. Looks just like nitrogen deficiency and the plants are getting huge. I also noticed I hadn't fed in 5 days. I figure most nutes in the soil must be used up. I only have a soil PH meter and the only readings I could get read 7.3 and 7.4. I checked my water PH with a test kit and to me it looks around 6.5 so I have no idea why the pH could be off. Could definitely use some help. I think I'm going to get some dry amendments like worm castings or guano. Noticed a random beetle munching away. I keep putting off spraying but it needs to be done. I'll add my question when I get a chance. UPDATE: Went back over and noticed soil was dry. Watered again approx a gallon each. I need to figure out the issue with the yellowing leaves. I added roots organic Ancient Amber to the water for a small nitrogen boost. I'll ask a question. 7/8 I lightly watered but probably shouldn't have as it's supposed to rain tonight and all day tomorrow. Better safe than sorry. I feel much better after some research and answers to my questions. I feel more confident. I just need to get my IPM up and running again and I should be good. Still threw away dead leaves but in places the sun doesn't get and plants have grown substantially. 7/9 Rained last night and supposed to rain all day today. I took a couple pictures but I'll have to wait until the rain subsides to spray. Wow it's still really pouring @4:45pm. Tropical storm Elsa or something is dropping like 3in of rain. Oh well hopefully helps lower my pH. Feels really good to look at the profiles of the growers on Facebook that have talked down and acted narcissistic towards me after I asked a question only to see their itsy bitsy scrawny little plants. Jealousy is real I guess. I'm praying to the pot gods that everything holds up through this storm. I love my garden but I can't get cocky. Outdoors in Maine anything can happen. 7/10 No damage from last night's storm. I measured the pH of the rain water and it appeared to be around 5.0-5.5 so that should help to lower my PH. Very nice day today. Plants should explode after this rain. 7/11 Very sunny day yesterday and looks like another today. 73 degrees at 9am. Last night I got halfway to my garden to spray and had to turn around due to several stomach cramps. Its always something. I VERY LIGHTLY watered before feeding 2 gallons of feed to the garden. I've been slipping. Its been another five days since feeding. I'm going to try Dr. Zymes tonight. UPDATE: Went to my garden around 6 and sprayed Dr. Zymes at 90 degrees on all plants. I used the two two oz free samples that are supposed to make a gallon. I saved half a bottle and used the rest so it wasn't max strength. I fed today too and I'm not supposed to spray above 80 degrees and it was 77 so hopefully this works out. I've never used this product. I wish I hadn't forgot my phone as my plants looked and smelled amazing. Still pulling off yellow leaves....

These beauties are super super frosty and swelling amazing. From the nakedness eye one of them will be coming out this week as it finished fast, the other two still have a week or so. All in all Happy

FBA2507 Light mix finito✔️BANG To the guy behind this strain : THANK YOU it's a one-way to the past when I was harvesting peaches in my grandpa's garden👨🏻‍🌾 Once again the quality of the buds 😳!!! In coco she s huge🚀 Same feeding + Green Sensation RoOoOaAaaADDD I've ever been down👻 Take care 💚

I actually enjoyed this grow cycle and will be popping more Elev8 genetics I have some more strains that is put up in the freezer .

Zítra přepínám 12/12🌷🌷🌷

Flowers continue to stack

Gary Payton the name speaks for itself. The plant already smells strong and it has leaves like a skunk plant but mixed with more modern leaves. I have a feeling this one is gonna full stack big colas

Sunday, Februar 14th. Happy ValentinesDay Iam still very happy with the Purple Kush Buds are swelling, and I think 10-14 days longer for the Girls They are drinking and eating like Champs. Iam watering daily, and Feding every other Day Leaves fading alittle, but thats abolute Ok Here are the Links for te3nt and Light: Light: http://bit.ly/marshydro-sp3000 Tent: http://bit.ly/marshydro-120x60tent
