7/27/2023- Prep Tent and system are cleaned and ready to go from my last grow. I have submitted my Journa for the Diary of the Month Competition here is to hopeing for good resutls. 7/28/2023- Germination Day 0- Seed initiation Well lets get this new Grow started.. So My Dad Sent me a custom Strain that he wanted me to grow out and Breed for him. The Strain is Called Red Rhino: Red Rhino is an amazing strain coming from Israel and boasts a 60% Sativa and a 40% Indica. This strian comes from crossing double gum and master kush. Effects are an increased appetite, as well as giving you ephoric feelings throughout the whole day. RO Water Used Added Hydrogen Peroxided 8/1/2023- Germination Achieved G-Day 1 Popped her head above the root riot today to say hello.. Woot first challenge when dealing with an unknown seed and a new Strain is getting the seed to pop and the lady to show life. 8/2/2023- Germination Day 2 Took the root riot out today and it was soaked not good plant drowing again. I am still having a hard time finding the right blance for where the water should be to keep the root riot moist and not soaked. I had to drain some of the water out of the root riot plug to help give a little oxygen. I also removed some of the water. 8/3/2023- Germination Day 3 Looking good stretching her leaves out to let in the lights 8/4/2023- Germination Day 4 Looking good a few days until I put them into the RDWC System and get this thing rocking and rolling. 8/5/2023- Germinaiton Day 5 Looking good will probably plant tomorrow if the roots are still looking good. 8/6/2023- Plant Day- Germination Day 6 Planted into the RDWC System today. Joy when they go into the system as long as we dial that in right this will now be a great grow.. Survived the hard part.. 8/7/2023- Germination Day 7 Fell over today I am worried.., she is showing some damage on the lower leaves from the over watering in the cloning machine but right now I don't see any new damage. Supported the Stems with little improvised pole to help her stand up. 8/8/2023- Germination Day 8 Added the first Nutes today, to help support root growth and to help give there first jump to growth. TPS SILICA GOLD-.5mil/Gal Root Drip- 1mil/Gal GH FLoraMicro-1mil/Gal GH FlroaGro-1mil/Gal GH FLroaBloom-1Mil/Gal ORCA-.5mil/Gal 8/9/2023 - Germination Day 9 Everything is looking good new growth looks like it is praying and they are looking happy. I will take off the damage leaves probably tomorrow. 8/10/2023- Germination Day 10 Everything is looking good looks like she is recoving well, with just a little bit of a delay. Cleaned up the dead leaves... Day 1 VEG tomorrow.. Water Change Day and first real meal...

Air umidity is getting high, I'm a little concerned about mold. I took some leaves. Let's try getting to achieve more 15 days till chop it.

End of week 2, veg. This little lady is finally catching up to the others in the tent. She has a typical sativa look to her for being so young, which is cool. After doing this for so long you kinda get a feel for seedlings. We watered with alfalfa Ferment as usual and these girls are in love lol. Seriously though, this stuff cuts my veg time in almost half! Highly recommend. Not much else to report on, just taking it day by day. Thanks for stopping by and we'll see ya next week.

Going nice;)))))))

Plant has been developing nicely over the past 6 weeks. Fimming was not very successful, so I continued with super cropping the plant. She was switched to a 12/12 schedule a week ago and was fed flower nutes for the first time this week. She is definitely stretching, so I installed another scrod at 50 cm to distribute the canopy even further and add some support. She has been receiving ph balanced RO water and is at this stage continuously via drippers. Roots are al over the tank again, which has however proven as an advantage in the past.

Day 64/F22: 8/13 -in a rush again, watered BD 1.5L and got runoff (late day watering yesterday), watered the rest at 1L and all got runoff except GB, gonna let dry out until tomorrow -runoff ppm for orange was 6.4ph 320ppm -planning on dropping second net tomorrow -very pleased with bud production so far and they dont seem phased by the haircut *all journals are day by day so i apologize if this diary feels slow Day 65/F23: 8/14 -GB 3L feed (no runoff) -BD 2.5L feed -shang/orange 1.7L feed Day 66/F24: 8/15 -BD 2.5L feed-373 ppm runoff -Shang 1.7L feed- 447 ppm runoff -Orange 1.7L feed- 453 ppm runoff -GB 3L feed- 445 ppm runoff Day 67/F25:8/16 -BD 2.5L feed -Shang 1.8L feed -Orange 1.8L feed -GB 3L feed Day 68/F26: 8/17 -BD 2.5L feed -Shang 1.8L feed -Orange 1.8L feed -GB 2.8L feed Day 69/F27: 8/18 -BD 2.5L feed -Shang 1.8L feed -Orange 1.8L feed -GB 2.8L feed Day 70/F28: 8/19 -BD 2.5L feed -Shang 1.8L feed -Orange 1.8L feed -GB 2.8L feed

Another fun week! Really starting to believe in this strain. We have now filled 80/81 squares with atleast 1 bud, most have 3. The lower flowers have made a sprint for the surface so happy with that. Applied some high stress training this time around as I really wanted a flat canopy from this point. A dozen or more branches bent off at a 90 degree angle to achieve that. Only one casualty. Upped the food to about 125% what ghe recommends along with some future harvest ton o bud. Did a really good flush and clean with half strength solution as I refilled. Decided to add a little phosphoric acid as i hadn't been for a few weeks. Flower set is coming along nicely. Plant 1 is still way ahead, but fairly docile whereas plant 2 finally put on some flowers and had started to stretch. Plant 1, oddly enough, has actually slowed its internodal growth and is starting to pack on the buds🤷‍♂️ As far as the phenotypes go, I think I lucked out and got two different purple varieties. I could be dead wrong, but both plants seem to show purple on early flower set. The mature fans look oddly lanky for a pure indica🤔 I have a half dozen clones that will hopefully take as I'd really like to give this strain another go. Til' next week🙌

Nice to see you 💚 The Fat Monkey is developing well. The flowers are developing and I'm really excited to see how it goes on hope it has a lot of the watermelon zkittles 😅 There was Enhancer 1g/l water. So that the solid fertilizer is released even better with extra bacteria and Trichoderma in the substrate. I love GHSC Bio line Thank you very much for your time 😊✌️💚

I think 2 more weeks of flower for the normal phenos and a lot more weeks for my long veg. Pheno of Fat Banana

week 9 was a good week I watch my pollen sacks grow into beautiful pods cant wait to use it plant doing pretty good health and strong

19 May 2021 My Blue Ox baby is looking good! She is growing and her leaves are looking better. I defoliated the few old sickly leaves that were cut when she was cloned and she seems better for it. I fed her half a gallon of chilled 50 degree water with the following nutrients: CALiMAGic 2.5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraGro 10ml, and FloraBloom 2.5ml. The initial pH was 6.50 and didn’t require adjustment. The TDS meter was 768 ppm. She still had plenty of runoff, and the pH was 5.79, and TDS runoff was 2615 ppm. The tent temp was 81 degrees F, and humidity was 42%. I’m pleased with her progress so far, except her branches are still a little too short to start any LST. She’ll get there.... eventually. 21 May 2021 The Blue Ox is thriving! Her leaves look good, and her stalk is starting to fatten up and fortify itself for later growth. She and her tent mate are soon going to outgrow their current home. I’m still on the same feeding chart, so here’s what was given: CALiMAGic 2.5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraGro 10ml, FloraBloom 2.5ml. My pH monitor stopped working, so I used history as my guide. Detailed record keeping wins again! The solution has historically been right on 6.5, and doesn’t need adjustment. The TDS meter was 842 ppm. Runoff was what was expected, and the TDS there was 2588 ppm. I chilled the water to 53.3 degrees F. The tent temp was 78.5 degrees F, and humidity was 44%. I’m still only feeding half a gallon. 23 May 2021 My Blue Ox is starting to grow like an ox! She and her tent mate are going to out grow their home sooner than I can get them into a larger one. I want to go ahead and flip her, but I don’t think my veg tent can take 2 flowering plants. I’ll figure it out. I’m keeping the nutrients at the same stage till I think she needs more. My pH meter is officially dead, but luckily my records are doing me well. I fed a half gallon of chilled (51 degrees F) water with CALiMAGic 2.5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraGro 10ml, and FloraBloom 2.5ml. The TDS was 762 ppm going in, and runoff TDS was 2841 ppm. The tent temperature was 80.6 degrees F, and humidity was 44%. 25 May 2021 Today is the last day of the second week of this diary (6th week of growth), and I’m planning on switching to the flowering stage tomorrow to start off the 7th week. My Blue Ox is getting big, and I don’t want to veg anymore! I will not make the same error twice! I let my 1st plant veg for 10 weeks from seed, and it’s a BEAST! It takes up a whole 48 x 48 x 80 inch tent all by itself!! Never again. So today I fed half gallon of chilled water (46.6 degrees F) with CALiMAGic increased to 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraGro 10ml, and FloraBloom 2.5ml. The pH was 6.6 and didn’t need adjusting. The TDS was 932 ppm going in. Runoff for pH was 5.6, and TDS was 2701 ppm. Tent temp was 79.4 degrees F, and humidity was 53%. I plan to defoliate a lot very soon to prepare for fresh buds to grow. She’ll have to flower in the small tent for 3 weeks then I’ll move them to the bigger tent so they have room to grow.

Another good week i would say. I do simple lst but just to shape up the plants. Next week will be the last veg week. I decided to switch to 12/12 by the end of the next week. I am considering a nice pre-flower flush with pure ph-ed water mixed with some organic molasses. I won't defoliate the plants but i will do lollipop some time at week 3 of flowering.

- Really happy with her recovery this week from the topping and defoliation, she's starting to show some explosive growth. I think I might up the nutrients to full strength next week, does anyone think this might be a bit much of an increase? - Continued with some slight training, just making sure the main branches don't pop back up and that they are pulled down as much as possible to save on height. - Did some minor training of the new shoots towards the end of the week, just trying to pull them into the empty space and even out the canopy a bit. - She also seemed a bit more thirsty this week , up until now iv only been watering one litre once a week, this week I gave her a total of about 3 litres spread over two occasions.

Royal Queen Seeds blew me away with their genetics last grow. So much so I'm growing the Gorilla again along with another 2 of their strains including this one, their Purple Queen. Just water week 1.

Ciao ragazzi e bentornati qui con me e il diario della colazione! 🥐🥛☕ Ultima settima di vegetativa questa, domani porterò il programma a 12/12. Non vedo l ora di vedere la stanza riempirsi di buds.😋 Ho lasciato riposare loro per una settimana intera dallo stress che potevano aver risentito. Poi nel giorno 35 ho eseguito ancora l allenamento per riempire, più o meno, tutta la superficie del vaso.💪 Mentre le piegavo ho eseguito anche una massiccia defogliazione eliminando foglie e germogli inutili.🤙 Ho bagnato loro nel giorno 32 e 35 con 1 litro soltanto di acqua, dato che il clima è molto umido questa settimana e ha influenzato i valori nella stanza, alzandoli intorno al 70/75%👍 Nel complesso molto bene, sono le ragazze più belle nella stanza e mi sono innamorato della loro struttura solida e veloce😍 Grazie a tutti per aver guardato e restate sintonizzati per nuovi aggiornamenti golosi🙏 Buona settimana e felice crescita🌱🌱🌱

Day 77!!! Wow she looks fantastic, she's almost harvest day, I'm going on a 5-day vacation, I think it will be harvest day when I get back:) her scent is very sweet:) I removed the leaves for the girl that she no longer needs, she showed me they were wilted:) I'll be back soon, see you later and good luck to everyone:)

Bonjour les amis. Cette semaine le stretch a bien démarré et est bien sensible 😻. J'espère qu'il sera limité, mon placard est petit. Aucune odeur pour l'instant. La plus petite des 3 plantes fait 15 cm de haut. Les 2 autres font 29 cm et développent plusieurs têtes. Pour l'instant tout va bien. À bientôt 👋

The plant has recover won't be the biggest but that is fine with me as it's for RSO/CBD oil

Going smoothly, got a 3rd Trellis in case they grow to high

The flush begins , Using final flush with water at 21.oC And some defoliating to get light down . Managing to keep temps stable at 23-25 oC with both lights Also added in a mars hydro light Last week and seems to be working well and shown good response from the plants under it
