Day 22, 01.05.2024
- Not much to do but to further guide Erika II by imposing LST for better light usage of lower leaves
Day 23, 02.05.2024
- Again a slow day. Just put in some wooden pins to provide some more light to the lower leaves
- soil is again getting bone dry. Since I only water with about 10% of the pot volume I think it might be time already tomorrow, maybe in the afternoon / evening
- also raised the lights to ~30cm above canopies again
- Erika II is catching up in height - maybe I can remove the lifting box in a couple of days
Day 24, 03.05.2024
- decided to give the ladies some water inkl. a fertilizer cocktail (~500ml each)
- bought a couple of longer wooden sticks to guide the leaves & branches. May install a scrog net just for better organization/ handling
- removed 2 leaves in total
- also I am now positive: Erika I is definitely going into flowering
Day 25, 04.05.2024
- Erika II catched up to Erika I in height so I removed the lifting piece. Now both plants are leveled on top and bottom (more or less)
- Decided to remove some leaves. I removed every leaf that a) pointed inwards plus b) covered other parts of the plant
- soil is again getting dry. Thinking about watering them in the morning
Day 26, 05.05.2024
- Gave a round of water & nutrition: 500ml each
Day 27, 06.05.2024
- Judging from the timelapse of the past days (see video!) I recognized: 500ml each second day might not be enough (mind you: it is only ~10% of the pot volume). Also after feeding the growing seems to explode :D (I fed for example on 05.05., ~17:00 hours). So I decided to give another round of drinks this evening (400ml each inkl. Fertilizer) at 20:45 which is around 24h after the last feeding.
- Just realized: I did not measure their heights in quite some time. At end of week 4 both are clocking in at 27cm from top of soil.
- Both showing now that they are ladies clearly - so I declare "End of Veggie" Day.
- Removed 1 small bud on the lower part of Erika II. Also removed 1 leaf at Erika I that pointed inwards & blocked light.
- Raised the lights to match 30cm above canopies again
Day 28, 07.05.2024
- not much to do but to watch the ladies explode in height: they gained about 4cm in 2 days :)
- watering is going to happen tomorrow
This day also concludes week 4.

This plant was the smallest of the 3 I am growing, she is now second biggest and by next week will be the tallest. Only using dry amendments and she is loving life. Going to be a good one.

Another easy week for the chibans. I feel bad i did not include little chiban 2 in the diary. She was topped a while back and is much much smaller then her sister but her structure and growth i am pleased with. Glad i kept her now..
Number 1 is just a monster!! i cut her i have snapped and bent her but each time i come out the next day and she has just repaired whatever i have done and im sure if she could she would be holding her middle finger up at me as i walked in!! She is huge (relative to the space i have) I have never spent so much effort on past grows maintaing the perfect enviroment as i have on this grow and what it has shown me is huge.. Get this right and it seems they just do their thing.. Now she is flipped and in pre flower i am a little scared of what she will become.. Good job my tiny grow space is over 2M tall.
Feeding is strange as they dont want too much. At the start of potting i mixed in ecothrive charge into the substrate and i have to say this stuff is amazing. I gave the first feed of nutes to these i think a week ago and it was a weak mix of grow and it gave them talons on the leaf tips which i took as a sign of N toxicity. So i think i could have stretched another week out of just water and beneficials. I will remember for next run.
thats it really, i will be keeping an eye this week on the enviroment again as previous weeks and watching for any changes in requirements.
Thanks for stopping by
Happy grows Smoke one for me..
Stay safe..

A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth.
It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did.
The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow.
I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet.
On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing
and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

I'm having troubles to upload my photo/videos. Concerning the plants, they keep going as always and I'm keep using my banana (and potato since now + honey) juice to watering them. I'm also adding green sensation following the manufacturer advice. Humidity and temperature are getting better as winter comes.

Dziewczyny zdecydowanie mniej pija wody. Obniżyłem wilgotność do 45-50%. Staram się nie przekraczać 25C. Powoli uprawa zbliża się ku końcowi. Może jeszcze raz zostaną dokarmione a potem do końca już tylko woda.

Apple Fritter developed some CalMag deficiency when I used a different fertilizer, so I'll stick with B'cuzz for this round.

Really love this strain, grown it a few times, happy with how she turned out, greasy an sticky and the smoke is heavy an euphoric, she smells like fruit punch with hints of nut meg, a smell I can't explain very pungent...

I had problems with some yellow tips of some leaves.
I also stopped with LST for fear that it might have affected. Should I restart with LST?
as you can see from the last photos, the pre-emis begin to come out. start with the top max biogrow fertilizer?

143gr for the Larger pheno and 97 for the shorter, very respectable yield in total for 3 Wk Veg. Total 240gr even they each had 1.5’x1.5’ of space. Big yielder, buds are 10/10 & very easy to grow . Could be prone to mold in an uncontrolled environment.

Questa settimana ho deciso di cambiare lampada tornando ad usare una vecchia hps che usavo prima, e ho notato che i risultati sono ottimi, con la lampada a LED sembrava che la fioritura stesse durando un'eternità, perciò ho provato a cambiare per vedere se la fioritura potesse velocizzarsi e sembra essere così.
AGGIORNAMENTO:
Giorno 8 NOVEMBRE, ho dato una bella sfoltita a tutte le bimbe, credo che questa sia l'ultima volta che le tocco anche perché questa volta ho eliminato alcuni rami veramente inutili e superflui.

Hi guys, the third week of flowering is over. The plants have grown a lot, almost a meter. Today I sprayed plagron's 'vita race' for the last time and now I just have to wait for the tops to swell. The temperatures drop at night to a minimum of 14 degrees, which is why I lowered the power of the fans, to try to raise the temperature by a couple of degrees. The humidity is still at 50%, I will try to lower it in the last 3 weeks of flowering. I hope I'm doing a good job because I want to collect as many buds as possible.

She's got the purple touch!
I think that both of my plants are almost ready for harvest. I don't have a USB microscope so I can't check thoroughly. Luckily I have a few lenses of a microscope and a very good phone camera.
I gave them no nutes with the watering because I thought the purple might be because of the nutes but it's probably because of the colder nights.
the following update might just be the harvest 👀.
