Hello friends and welcome to my first report and my very first grow! šŸ Please follow me so you don’t miss any of my other grows. Thanks buddy! šŸ™šŸ¼ And also don’t miss my introducing to see more information about me and my entire collected knowledge! (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/209900-the-best-grow-journal-by-rick-and-growty) ________________________________________ My weeks always start on a Sunday. So today I define 19.05.2024 as the first day of the 3rd week. Because I got the plants as cuttings and they already had a certain size, I can’t determine an exact age at the beginning, unlike when growing them from seeds. ________________________________________ 19.05.2024 Today is the first day of the 3rd week so I decided to plant the girls in their final 18l pots and gave them 2l water with 0.25g/l of BioEnhancer and also a pinch of Great White Premium Mycorrhizae - [to get] ā€œKiller Roots for Killer Plantsā€ 🦈 I will give them 2 days to recover before adding the BioGrow growth fertilizer with a concentration of 3g/l pot volume.

Day 54 of flower. We’re on cruise control. Been flushing her out for the last few weeks. Will be harvesting a week from today or a few days afterwards. The purple is really coming in heavy! She’s frosty and sticky with the slightest touch. Just counting down the days till she’s done. Until next update!

Lowered the hours as it's pretty hot and moved the time schedule by a few hours. Lights on at 5PM lights out at 7am keeping them in veg but allowing for heat management. Slow growth all round really think my lights could be lower, as the heats more manageable I may leave my 450W blue CFL plugged in. I've turned it on and off as the Temperature shot up. 26°c outside now so may have to flower early if it doesn't cool down a bit. Liking the Kalini Asia's growth structure a true Indica for sure!

Another week has flown by! The girls are doing great, cruise control this week as I have just been monitoring RH and temps. Trying to keep them as low as possible, I’ve been getting as low as 74 during the day and 68 at night. I finally took a look a look at the trichomes with my jewellers loop, lots of cloudy, and a few amber around the leaves and top colas, but still lot’s of clear trichomes. I’ve ordered myself a wireless/usb digital microscope to assist with the process, and looks like it will be here just in time to determine harvest day. šŸ˜ŽšŸŽ„ I started by eliminating the nutrients at the beginning of the week. I typically allow for 3-4 pure water feeds before I harvest, and at the rate they have been drinking, this should be enough to get through the 7-12 days they have before harvest. I don’t flush, but rather ā€œrinseā€ with normal water amounts, allowing the plant to use up the remaining nutrients in the soil. This also allows me to recover most of the soil from my grows and reuse ā™»ļø with other soil mix. There has been great debate and a great deal of bro science out there for many years, but the recent studies suggest there is no difference in end result when it comes to flushing or using nutrients right until the end, if a proper dry and cure is performed. What do you think? What do you prefer to do? Thanks for reading this far, leave me a comment with your preferred method šŸ‘ŠšŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ā¤ļø

Day 28 update: I think the light was too close to the plant, so I increased the distance to 50cm. It should help with the stretch of lower branches. Then I switched to Advanced Nutrients feed chart, adding 4ml/L of A+B formula and 2ml/L of other additives (for every liter in the reservoir). This made the ppm go crazy. Let’s see what happens, but I don’t like these unclear instructions. Ph Perfect keeps the ph stable for just a few hours, and they don’t say anything about ppm. Bad! Day 30 update: LST session + defoliation on fan leaves that were hiding lower branches. Day 32 update: transplanted to her final 20L AirPot (from a 5L one)! Added some michorrizhae as well where I placed the plant. Since I got a bigger pot, now it’s 250ml of solution every hour, instead of the previous 125ml. Day 34 update: immediately stopped using Advanced Nutrients feed chart (from their calculator) because I had that crazy 3100 ppm in the reservoir and noticed a small sign of overfeeding on a leaf in the top. I removed part of the solution and added tap water back until I got about 800 ppm. NOT HAPPY! Day 35: LST! Again

Started a little training this week. This plant is pretty bushy with tight nodes. Will be doing some more training and a little defoliation over the next week to get her ready for flower. Other than that, just watching and waiting

Day 57 - Yesterday I noticed that the leaves are darker than they should be, so I re-made the mixing solution lowering the PPM from 750 to 550. I've tried to raise it to see how much nutes that ladies can handle since it's my first time in coco and I like to experiment. Now I'm going to finish this mixing solution and then stabilize the next ones on 650 PPM. Keep learning every day šŸ™ Day 60 - Today I added one extra equivalent 75W LED to give the lower nodes more power. Some fan leaves touch it, wish they will not burn. New update in the next days.

05/03/19 Kept it simple, haven't done much apart from lower the light from 45cm to 40cm. Keeping the thermostat fan set to no higher than 25c Open the doors once a day and give a spray of water to the walls of the wardrobe 3 x daily The soil is still moist from a feed on the 03/05/19 so I'll just wait until the topsoil is dry by 3cm ******* 08/03/19 The plants were looking a little sad so I've watered them 1L nute loaded for each plant and started with some LST

. FIRST DAYS ------------- 3 of the girls have the perfect shape for topping. I’m going with a structure of 6 side branches for each of them. The one that’s a bit behind doesn’t allow me to plan for 6 branches for now, so I’m training 4 lateral branches and training the main cola; that will give a 5-branch star. As for the Quasimodo girl, it’s more complicated… 😶 Up to the 4th node she showed no symmetry, was developing big leaves with small branches, and was leaning to one side; so I cleaned off all those branches and leaves that looked like a lettuce, and I’m waiting to see what I can do with her this week. All 5 are moving to 3 ml Grow A, 3 ml Grow B, 2 ml Voodoo, and I’m switching to Plagron mineral CalMag at 1.5 ml. MIDWEEK ----------- The Triple Gs handle topping and training brilliantly šŸ‘Œ In just four days, they had redeveloped large leaves and secondary shoots on every branch, which I cut while continuing the mainlining. I now have three beautiful plants with six branches; the late one is becoming a five-branch plant, and the Quasimodo will have four branches by bending three secondary branches and keeping the main cola.

On flower day 60, it was finally time. Three days before the final cut, I did a last light watering with plain water. The last 36 hours, the lights stayed on. In the end, I had around 20–30% amber trichomes. I'm super happy with the result. Trim jail was exhausting but totally worth it. The harvest is now right in the middle of curing. As for the smell: a sharp, earthy, leathery diesel mix with hints of lemon. The fuel note is, to my delight, much stronger than expected. Incredibly sticky buds. Sparkling flowers. Thanks so much for following along with the grow journal! Maybe it'll help someone with planning or give a general preview for a future grow of this strain. Much love and happy growing!

I’m thinking of throwing out one of the phenos she’s seems to have a mutation. Might wait a week and she what she does, but Pheno 1 is looking good and I can’t wait to take some clones of her.

Auto Lemon was cut down on March 17, 2018. The pics are from just before harvest. I'll add a Harvest update on GD after she's dried. But I think this might be the largest yield I've had to date. Looking forward the smoke report! šŸ‘

Greenhouse feeded one is struggling under the high intensity of the light. But still growing frosty buds. Advance Nutrient one is smaller and is receiving less light. She is still recovering from the earlier accident though.
