19.1.25: I have watered all plants with 300ml of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3, with 1/3 jar of black strap molasses with Ecothrive Biosys-1g. I am looking to increase the sugars for microbial life and plant processes. It'll also add some extra Calcium, Magnesium and trace elements. I also, watered all plants with Bloom nutrients. Using dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients: (ml/l) ;- ♡ 2ml Cal-Mag ♡ 2ml Ecothrive Flourish ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 2ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Biobizz Top Max ♡ 1g of Ecothrive Biosys I watered around 1-3 litres per plant. Depending on size and requirements. I'm still spilling water containing the nutrient solution. 🙄 I am using this to rub into the leaves. I think a nice foliar massage won't do any harm, make the most of the situation. The plants have become very hungry and thirsty. Increased the water by double. I ran out of my TNC cal-mag. I decided to order the Xpert Nutrients brand, as I like their products. It isn't organic as far as I can tell, but I don't think it matters too much to me, to be honest. I also want to top dress this week, so I bought some Green Leaf PK bud Booster dry amendment from Amazon, too. I'll mix it with canna coco, perlite, worm castings, and Ecothrive Life Cycle. 24.1.25: I went ahead and top dressed all the plants with 4.5 gallons of my supersoil custom mix. This consists of the following substrate and dry amendments: ♡ 60% Canna coco ♡ 20% Worm castings ♡ 15 % Perlite The remaining 5% consists of the following dry amendments;- ♡ 10g Ecothrive Biosys ♡ 1 Tsp RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules ♡ 3 Tsp Vitalink Bat guano ♡ 4 Tsp Diatomaceous earth ♡ 8 Tsp Ground Cinnamon ♡ 10g Green Leaf Bud Booster PK booster. ♡ 3 Tsp Ecothrive Life Cycle. •Worm castings for some all round nutrition. •Cinnamon for mildew and bug repellent. •Canna coco base substrate. •Perlite for adding oxygen to the root and soil system. •Green Leaf Bud Booster PK Booster for blooming. Building strong big buds. •Vitalink bat guano again for Bloom. •RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules, to boost beneficial microbes. •Ecothrive Life Cycle for lots of great benefits. •Diatomaceous earth for Silica. •Ecothrive Biosys, for an extra microbial boost. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

so this was the last week before harvest.. i intended to cut her down christmas day but decided to put her in 2 days of darkness before the chop.. she is now harvested an sat for a few days be4 entering jars for a curing.. the smell and these nugs is so yummi 😅

Guys and gals I'm back and am I suprised Rhino Ryder number 2 start of week 8 of flowering one more week to go also did another flush today !! The fade is beautiful guys the smell is off the charts I keep my tent door open and my room smells amazing!!!

Pretty heavy yield for only 2 plants they smell and look astounding. Harvested in 2 parts. To allow the lower buds to densen and mature.

Última semana y los cogollos siguen creciendo y pasaron a tener unos tonos morados que es muestra su maduración, el olor también se puso mucho más intenso. Al parece le queda 1 semana y cumplen sus 10 semanas, son rapidísimas, la gorila x cokes fue la que más me gustó. Últimos días, solamente con agüita.

Sept 6th: (F20) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Sept 7th: (F21) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Sept 8th: (F22) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Sept 9th: (F23) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Sept 10th: (F24) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Had to supercrop 1 branch on the PE#2 since it was almost in the roof of the tent Sept 11th: (F25) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Sept 12th: (F26) Fertigation once a day with same recipe (1200 EC 6.1 PH) watered until 10-20% run-off Note: The PE#2 had a late stretch this week oO hope she is done stretching, dont got more height for it! Had to supercrop one branch on it this week since it was almost in the tent roof. Its funny that the TUT who is 60-65 Flower days is way in advance in bud forming on the PE#2 who is supposed to be 45-50 flowering days

Experiment in progress A Dark room & no water for the next 4 days then I’ll harvest.

Even though the temperatures have gone extremely to high for my liking this plant seems to love it. She’s a very resilient plant I highly recommend tho she strain to everyone. After I clear out my flowering tent I will put this bad baby into flower.

So I started germinating my seeds with the cup of water method on the morning of the 25/04/20 on that same day I filled up small 9cm pots with John inns #1 for seedlings and gave it a soak through and left too sit in garden. I then this morning 27/04/20 removed all my seeds from there cups as they had all cracked and slightly shown tap roots. so I got them potted up and out in the garden however today’s weather has went slightly downhill compared too the recent weeks but I have great confidence they will be sweet. I’m going too repot in about 2 weeks time into 14 litre pots with some John inns #3 if I can get my hands on some multi purpose compost them I’m going too do a 50:50 mix as have read the John inns is good but can be abit hard upon watering and what not. So that could be an idea I know they don’t generally like repotting but so long as done at the right time “not too early or late” then they shouldn’t have too many issues with there transition. I have chosen too use fast buds as have a mate who grows them indoors and never failed too impress me with the flowers. Ideally these will stay outside 24/7 so they are instantly used too the changes in temp etc I feel bringing them in and outside can cause them too stress too much. So let’s see how we go. This evening I have moved them inside my shed so it’s stays the same rough temp as it’s due too rain heavy from 2am and don’t want too risk drowning the seeds out before they have even had a chance lol 28/04/20 update: so I have awoken this morning too the heavens falling so I’m really torn about bringing the autos back out right now I don’t want too fuck it up as right now is crucial so I have put them under a led light just too give them that little push start soon as they bust through the soil they going back outside 29/04/20 checked on them this morning just shy of 48 hours from potting and still nothing broken the soil.. starting too worry man hope I haven’t messed it up. 30/04/20 ayyyy what a good morning it is indeed 5 of 8 are coming up out the soil.. lunchtime update because I’m checking them like every hour🤣 6 out of 8 are up and out or just on the verge 01/05/20 not much more going on they definitely have grown some more as for my situation with outside weather due too get better but I have had the light on 24/7 now since they been inside so think mabye I should start cutting down how much light they are getting in a day so it’s not such a shock when they have too go all night outside. Also think we have lost one of the c4’s as the shell was stuck and I tried too help her out and she pulled out the soil😫 so I just kind of repotted it and hoping for the best but don’t think she going too pull through the rest looking find though luckily enough I got 2 c4’s on the go 02/05/20 yeah this morning I woke up too find that one dead and done for i had a feeling I had killed her slightly upset but not going too dwell on it.. on a positive note sun is out all day today and due too be lovely and warm here on out so they will probally stay outside now but will bring in at night as this morning cars were frozen so it’s still slightly too cold at night for sure... evening update we lost the west coast og also and I know why I lost them both my sprayer wasn’t working and like a idiot I watered them when they was undersoil still only lightly but the c4 bean and the wc og came to top as they wasn’t far enough in and they must have been done for from that moment can only be that as rest are sweet however I can’t believe it so I ph checked my water after giving them it too start and that because I was still waiting for my ph down too come and turns out my tap water is around 8 so I’m suprised any of them made it😮 but thankfully ph down has arrived and we are getting there 6 left but they are the chosen ones I guess you going too win some and loose some. Also tonight they about too deal with all night in the dark and then that’s how they are going too be from here on out nomore 24/7 light going too put them inside with led on still still a little later then sun down as I won’t be up at 5:30 when sun comes up... 05/05/20 so I have finally got a plan I’m sticking too and it’s working just a treat atm the weather is much nicer and sunnier now so the been bringing them out every morning leaving them Out all day then around 7pm roughly been taking them inside the tent into darkness leave them till around 10/11pm then I been turning the led on and leaving them under her for the night then straight back outside soon as it hits about 7:30am i started with just A hour of darkness one night then 2 then next then 4 then before they stay out all night for first night they will get about 5 hours darkness inside as outside it’s gunna be around 6 hours and I don’t want them too be shocked by it as started them off with pretty much 24/7 lights however since giving them darkness they have started growing a lot better and smoother think 24 hours of constant light is just abit too much they need time too rest and what not, watering with small amount of vitalink soil grow literally 0.5 ml a litre I also have some root fast by another company which I Have added a half measure in too help give her a start no signs of stress they seem too have loved the little feed so will be continuing the same measurements for about a week unless they start all a sudden booming up then I’ll up the feed just all trial and error and just having a bit of fun with it. 6 days out the soil now nearly onto week 2.... excited too say the least

2023/06/19 : nitrogen deficiencies so more orgatrex+bactrex and one more boom boom spray. Almost every plants have pistils now so this is first flowering week I guess... Just got missing stuff I was waiting for (PK compost tea and oxygenation kit) so I'll be ready in a week or two with compost tea (watering every 1/2 week and spray) and bio PK booster (every 1/2 other week) from Biotabs. Light is now at 40 cm, dimmed to deliver 40 DLI with 18/6 day/night. CO2 level is near 700 so I'm thinking about introducing boost buddy to the ladies. They're from 17 to 27,5 cm tall and strectching with big internode space. 2023/06/20 : I removed everything on the lower node, adjusted tutors, completed coco level, etc : #2 - 25 cm first pistils are coming out #3 - 23 cm pistils out #4 - 27,5 cm pistils out #5 - 17 cm very late because of the f@cking jiffy who didn't let the root freely get out 😭 #6 - 25 cm pistils out #8 - 24 cm pistils out 2023/06/23 : still stretching a lot! Made a quick vid. #2 - 32,5 cm a bit late #3 - 28,5 cm OK #4 - 34 cm OK #5 - 21,5 cm very late #6 - 29,5 cm OK #8 - 28,5 cm OK

🎥 My Week 3 Grow Log: Starting the Mainlining Process Introduction & Timing Whats Going On Growmies !!! welcome back to the 2025 Winter Grow! This week marks a really exciting milestone because the Special Kush 1 is finally ready for its first major structural training. We’re currently in Week 3 of the vegetative stage, and the plant has gotten big and healthy enough to handle some High-Stress Training (HST). The Main Goal: Mainlining My focus this session was to initiate mainlining. For those who don't know, this is the technique I use to create a perfectly balanced, symmetrical canopy, which should lead to much bigger and more uniform colas later on. This is where we lay the foundation for maximizing our final yield. The Steps I Took (Topping) Selection: I examined the plant and chose the perfect spot for the cut. I decided on the third node (counting from the bottom) as the anchor point for the manifold. The Cut (Topping): I carefully took my sterilized shears and topped the plant, removing the entire top growth tip (the apical meristem). This was done right above the selected third node. Redirection: Removing that main growth tip gets rid of apical dominance. Now, all of the plant’s energy will be diverted equally into the two main side branches growing out of that third node. These two branches are what will form the central "Y" shape of the manifold. The Clean-Up (Pruning) Lower Growth Removal: To ensure every bit of energy goes to those two future main colas, I systematically removed all of the lower growth. This included all the secondary growth tips and fan leaves from the first and second nodes. The New Structure: After the trimming, the plant now has a clean, bare stem leading up to the two chosen branches at the third node. This is the official "beginning of the mainlining" process. Next Steps The plant will now focus on recovering and growing those two new main branches. In the next few days, I'll probably be tying those two branches down gently to keep them level and open up the center (that's the Low-Stress Training part of mainlining). I'm really happy with how the first cut went. Stay tuned for the next part where we continue to shape this manifold! My Week 3 Grow Log: Precision Nutrient Feeding Part 1: The Nutrient Mix and Strength Check Water Base: I started with my baseline water and made sure it was ready for mixing. The Flora Series Mix (Per Gallon): I carefully measured out the General Hydroponics Flora Series nutrients, following my specific Week 3 veg schedule: FloraMicro: 4.5 ml/gal (This provides essential micro-elements and buffers the solution. FloraGrow: 6.1 ml/gal (This is the primary source of Nitrogen (N) for rapid leaf and stem growth.) FloraBloom: 3.0 ml/gal (A smaller dose is included to ensure all necessary P/K elements are present, even in veg.) CalMag Boost: Crucially, I added 1.9 ml/gal of CalMag. Motivation: This ensures the plant has enough Calcium and Magnesium to prevent deficiencies and handle the increased light intensity, especially as it recovers from stress. Part 2: pH Adjustment and Application The Critical pH Check: I tested the pH of the nutrient solution. Motivation: Nutrients are only available to the roots within a specific pH window. I adjusted the mix using pH down (as is usually the case with the Flora Series) until the solution was dialed in between 6.0-6.5 for optimal uptake. The Watering Technique: I slowly and evenly applied the nutrient solution to the container, making sure the entire medium was saturated. Run-off Check (The Final Step): The most important part of this session was checking the run-off. By testing the run-off EC and pH, I confirmed that the root zone is healthy, that the plant is taking up food, and that old salts aren't building up in the container. Summary of Results Everything looks good! With the perfectly balanced and measured nutrient cocktail, the Special Kush 1 now has the necessary fuel (especially the high nitrogen from the 6.1 ml/gal FloraGrow) to heal quickly and push those two newly topped branches into strong growth, setting us up for success with the manifold!

Esta semana entramos en pre flora Farmers, a ver cómo tira con el té compost que pusimos... aproximadamente 5% de melaza pescado hidrolizado ácido fulvico, mycorrizas, azos bacter and micro organismos para un buen rendimiento un saludo compañeros!

ºDay 44 (21Dez) - Did some "plant work", moved upper bigger leaves under the colas that were developing below so they get more light. ºDay 45 (22Dez) - LSTing the rest of the colas, 13th watering (1st vegNute); ºDay 47 (24Dez) - LST on other colas, 1st and 2nd videos; ºDay 48 (25Dez) - 14th watering (2nd vegNute), broke one of the colas on accident... ºDay 49 (26Dez) - End of week 7;

Die Pflanze ist nun in der Vorblüte! Auch hat sie einen Wachstumsschub bekommen. Alle Pflanzen im Turm explodieren aktuell. ------------------------ The plant is now in pre-flowering. It has also had a growth spurt. All the plants in the tower are currently exploding.

Will start some LST next week, FIM on GG

🍬

Did some defoliation as noted. I think she is ready for a 10 gallon pot.
