Week 7

[NEW ~ 11.1.18I just started nutes at low doses to ease these girls in without shocking em (hopefully). I have to be careful and monitor these ladies to see how they respond. They look good so far and handled their transition to flower well. I'll update ya guys if something goes wrong, much love! Hola los amigos! Hello my friends! I'm back with week 11's (day 71) diary. Today I decided to make a longer video, which I left out a few things because I didn't want to make the video another 2-3 minutes longer :) So at the and of my weekly comment I'll mention what I didn't in the video, Thanks for checking out one my diaries, if you notice anything I'm missing let me know, I'd really appreciate it 😅 ~ Update day 71 ~ First on the list is the overall growth of these girls, I’m astounded. I’m very happy that I made the decision to use Grower Choice Seeds, even though there is a issue with my CBD Blueberry I tried some of the trimmed buds and I’ll tell you what, those buds were way immature.. but the effect was incredibly pleasant and perfect for ending a hard days work, wow I can’t wait to harvest the mother! I’ll definitely grow more CBD Blueberry on my next rotation. Still I’m wondering what could have happened to cause the CBD to bud and not the others… Oh well, It’s a good learning experience :) Now I’ll get into the individual progress notes for this week, enjoy <3 ~ Individual Progress Notes ~ [Purple Urkle #1] Height: 14.6" Tops: 16 Notes: I’m very happy to see this girl finally get a bit bushier. Having a very similar structure to her sister her genes are nowhere near as aggressive. Still I’m curious what pheno this girl is… Only time will tell. [Purple Urkle #2] Height: 15.5" Tops: 16 Notes: This Twister Sister is insane! I have to mention her clones here. I kid you not this girl is aggressive and my best grower. All her clones are massive compared to the others. I’m keeping this girl, I might even breed her with a Thai Landrace just to see what happens ;) [CBD Blueberry] Height: 18" Tops: 8 Notes: This girl is confused, poor thing :( I got her to reveg, not sure how but it happened. If you look closely at the leaves you can see the weird deformed that are a classic sign of reveging. The growth rate has increased a lot! She was my smallest plant and now she’s mt tallest, I need to do some HST or topping, don’t want her towering over the others. Now I have a question, do any of you guys know if it’s bad to reveg feminized plants? I heard a rumor that it’s not recommended but I’d like to ask my fellow growers here on GD. [Mazar] Height: 18" Tops: 16 Notes: Now this is a proper bush, a beautiful round full structure, these genetic look amazing, can’t wait to see what she matures into. I’m glad I’m stopping at 16 tops because this girl would take up the entire 4 x 4 tent if I let her, big girl :) [Super Silver Haze] Height: 15.3" Tops: 16 Notes: She’s now one of my smallest girls, though her structure and canopy is solid. She’s loving the net, let’s her breathe a bit more. I have high hope for this one, much love for Arjan and any of his creations. [White Widow] Height: 18" Tops: 16 Notes: My all time favorite! Tanya has bluish green leaves that have a platinum sheen to em. I really like the colors, I wonder how white this girl will get, If you guys have any suggestions to make WW or any strain extra frosty let me know <3 ~ Final Thoughts ~ I made it to flowering! Woop! Now it’s time for the hard part, the budz :D This has been a stressful, yet oddly relaxing (more like cathartic) and rewarding experience, I’m slowly introducing nutes every other watering. The next nute mix will be when I start week 12 (flowering) I will and some flower fuel to help boost the growth of phat buds. I’ll also add molasses and honey for carbohydrates and sweetness. The expected harvest date is around December 17th so stick around ya! See you guys next week! :) ~ Honorable Mentions ~ A big thank you to everyone who has been supporting me through this grow! I have much love and respect for these people. All the advice, tips, suggestions, and of course all the good vibes and love from the comments, much love Meus <3 Stinkfox, Tazard, SpinnerGrow, Bulbi, ValhallasGarden, Floran, ODDTODD45, and bobo420! You guys are awesome! Thanks again for everything so far, My current success is because of all of ya!

Did a bigger defol. Adjusted the trellis. May or may not have been watering with too high of ph (7.2) so hopefully microbes have been doing their job.

I used this supplement 4th time. All was good but we need use 150-200% of recommended dose as i sad for better results. So the day 71 was harvest day) the buds really frosted and dense.. . Thanks "fastbuds" for good marijuana genetics... they did good work. Thanks guys for this. During season I hadn't any serious problem. Thank for all followers and friends who watched my grow and I wish you all have a good harvest brothers! When buds will be treated I add results) see you later;) Hi friends!) So 7 days took for drying buds. And we have not bad results -255 grams dry buds from two plants. 130.5 from one and 124.5 from another. Good quality and taste. I put them in my fridg for next 4 weeks for treating) so see you soon in my next grow;)

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been a couple changes this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plant. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more light penetration. Then finally switched to 12/12.. Just 36 hours after the defoliation she looked fuller than before. Leaves pointing up and out. By how she's doing I'm sure she'll stretch a good bit these next few weeks. Great reaction to the defoliation. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how she flowers. Stay safe!

Flowering slowly, likely due to the roots having low PH(4-5).. I flushed her a few weeks back.. I'm done experimenting with nutrients for now; I had better results, with less issues with just using the basics. *Special Nug picture - This Bud-site has a different shape/structure compared to every other nug on this plant.. Never seen this before, on any other strain.

Super busy with a move and a big garden reno. Sorry, this is the only update for this week

La semana va bien el último día detectó q varias plantas empiezan a amrillear, aplico 10l de canna flush a 4ml/l. Son las de la derecha en las parejas de macetas. Tengo q revisar q este nivelado.

Bene amici growers come potete vedere la fioritura procede senza molti problemi. Ho innaffiato le piante per la prima volta con una soluzione adatta alla fioritura e ora staremo a vedere come pian piano cominceranno a gonfiarsi i nostri amati fiori. Le piante iniziano ad emanare un profumo inebriante, le Durban posion stanno già assumendo un colore violaceo mentre le critical sembrano un po' più in dietro. Vi ringrazio anticipatamente nel caso lasciate un like!!

Defoliation, lolypoping, rest stayed the same, feeding 1.9EC,raised up light to 500PPFD, looks fine but I am still nervous about lighter green color on some plants, thinking about lockout or CalMag def hope someone will guide me

Will add comment soon

Day 58 - As you can see, buds are looking full but still looking like they want to go a bit longer, checking the trichomes frequently and seeing a lot of cloudy.. think i saw the first few ambers too. Any how, we shall keep going. Flush time soon. Day 62 - Looking good, smelling better.. really fruity and sweet. Seems ripe too. Feeds lowered and a little flush. Buds are rock hard, very dense and sticky. Looking forward to harvesting. She will be ready by day 63, but I'll see weather or not ill let her go longer. Stay tuned. Day 64 - trichomes ready, little flush and shes ready for the chop. Beautiful smelling strain and easy to grow. Very hard dense gassy and sweet buds. Once dry and cure, will be back with a little update.

May 5, 2024 Day 15 This week we will be focusing on getting the plants into their 3 gallon containers. That should be happening this afternoon when I'm up for it, or tomorrow. However, some roots are starting to show on the sides and the plants are starting to get a bit big for the Germination Center. There's still a this one small plant. It seems to just be a smaller plant. I don't know if I'm going to keep it. Just a waste of soil I think. Speaking of Sour Diesel, all four plants are really healthy. The three normal sized ones are all the same size. Same everything. I can't wait to see how they come out. Still nothing to do with individual plants. They are still too young. I increased the light power to 100%. They all seem to be loving the light, so why not treat them. Plus they will only be in that light for another few hours to a day. Still no idea what the DLI is. I don't have a PAR map to to refer to. So it's mostly guess work. So I'm guessing by the look of the plants, they don't mind at all. The environment is still spot on. The temp is hovering around 77° and the humidity is still at 84%. I'm assuming the night temp is around 75°, but the light is on and the heat mat is going. When I plant them, I'm going to have to work the heat and humidity in the 2x2. Happily, this size tent is a pain to keep dry, and I don't need dry, I need humid at least for the next 2 weeks. Then they should be going in the 3x3 with the better light and more space. Perfect. Update: it's mid afternoon and all 4 babies have been planted in their final 3 gallon containers. Watered in and easy to go. I'm using a 100 watt light for now while I wait for the other plants to finish. Still deciding if I want to keep the small one or not. Germination Center Environment: Temp: 78.3° RH: 85.6% VPD: unknown May 6, 2024 So I measured all 4 plants today. 3 of the 4 are 4" flat with the final one being at 3". I already have her in the final container, but if she doesn't catch up soon, I may put her in the 2x2 tent for a solo grow so she doesn't get cannibalized. I have to wait though. I have plants that are days from harvest, so I'll have to wait a couple of weeks to get her in there. When that time comes, I'll separate her daily entries so everyone knows what's actually going on. I won't be basing the weekly stats on her though. She will be separate. I finally labelled each plant. A,B,C and D. You guessed it, D is the small one. I'll be doing daily entries for each once I start seeing more veg. Watering should be the same, lighting and environment will also be the same for A,B,C and different for D. So just a note for each plant daily. The light has been turned on in the 2x2 where these babies love for now. It's a 100 w Mars Hydro TS600. I don't really like using it, it's only 100 w. Which will be fine for the time being, but I prefer my better 3x3 240 watt AC Infinity light. DLI readings for this set up is just under 20 mol/m²/d. Should be good right there for the time spent in here. The environment is stable at 78% humidity and a temperature of 76°. I'll keep it that way for the rest of this week and see how things go next week. I'll most likely bring the humidity down to 60%. But I'd like to keep the temp up. I've read that Sour Diesel likes heat. Apparently it likes humid and dry climates. Which makes absolutely no sense to me, but whatever. I'll keep it at 60% in veg and then drop it 5% at a time until late flower and 40% will be the where it ends. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76° RH: 78% VPD: unknown May 7, 2024 I finally added a hydrometer that will read properly and works. All 4 ladies look great. I'm still concerned about the small one. I'm willing to bet, I'll end up placing it in the 2x2 for the solo grow I was talking about before. A,B,C all look the same. They are about 5" tall now and have 3 nodes. D on the other hand is just behind. Only 2 nodes and generally smaller. The light was a bit out of whack. It wasn't level and was pulling super hard to the back of the tent. I fixed that though. I think the DLI is around 20 mol/m²/d. It should be good for this stage. I'll definitely have to drop the light down t A bit when they get a little older. I'd like to see 25 mol/m²/d before going in the main tent. The environment is alright. The temp was a bit low this morning. The humidity was also at 61%. Definitely too low for these ladies. It should be up to 70% in a couple hours. The temp already bumped up to 78°. Now I just need to get a humidifier in there. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.8° RH: 65.6% VPD: 1.01 kPa May 8, 2024 Watering day! So for the first full watering I gave everyone a half gallon of water PHed to 6.0 from the top. I use a stick, so it takes a good bit of time to do it, but I don't need to wait for the soil to absorb. It does so gradually as the water is added gradually. There seems to be 2 different phenomes. A and D are one with B and C being the other. A and D have fatter leaves, but they are a bit droopy. Not in a stressed out way. Maybe they needed a bit of water. Not sure, but they look the same besides the height difference. Speaking of D, I have officially decided to keep her and finish her in a solo 2x2 grow. I just need to wait a few weeks while the other 4 plants are harvested and dried up. In the mean time, I'll keep her in the 3x3 when it gets moved there. Maybe I'll keep her there if she can keep up with the rest. I'm not sure. It's honestly too early to tell. A, B and C are still all the same height with A being a slightly different structure. I'll check back later to see how they take to the watering. I don't think a half gallon of water in a 3.4 gallon container will be any problem. It will moisten the whole container to probably about 45% saturation. When the bottom feeding starts in a few weeks, the saturation should go up to 55%. And it should hang out here until the last week or so of the grow. It may spike a bit because the plants doesn't need that much water anymore, but we will cross that bridge when we get there. The light seems to be perfectly fine for these ladies. In a few days, I'll pull a DLI reading and see where it needs to be. I still feel like these babies are still establishing themselves. Anyway, for another day. The environment was really good for a while. Now that I have them out of the Germination Center, I needed to figure out the humidity. The solution is a small humidifier. Works perfectly. We have a temp of 77° and the humidity is around 79%. Perfect for this stage. It could stand to be a bit warmer, but this is fine. Plus it should get a bit warmer today after the watering. Science and all that. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.5° RH: 71.5% VPD: 0.84 kPa Note: these numbers are daily averages including lights out. It gives a better idea of what both temps look like. For example. 74.5° is less than 77°, so the night temp much drop below 74° for a 6 hour average to drop the daily so much. But there's a lot to learn once you get the jist of it. May 9, 2024 Not a bad day. These ladies, even D, are looking great. Good leaf structure, fantastic color. Just all around some nice plants. They seem to really like the DLI. I'll be taking that reading tomorrow. The plants haven't grown enough to record it more than once a week. So lighting stays the same. The environment is fantastic. Right within range of not nearly perfect. The temp is around 76° and the Humidity is around 73%. It doesn't fluctuate much, but it still does. Naturally, I expect fluctuations, so I'm not worried about it. As I said, right within range. On the other hand, last night's temp dropped entirely way too low for this stage. I'll have to figure out a happy medium for my room heat and night time temps. Also, you can clearly see the drop in the leverage temp from yesterday. It's super low. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.1° RH: 77.5% VPD: 0.66 kPa May 10, 2024 Not much going on today. No watering needed. The light looks perfectly fine. Also, the plants are each started to grow at their own pace and size. While A,B and C are the same height, B is slightly ahead of the others. Strong stem and starting to grow side branches and another node. D looks like she may catch up after all. She's still not as big as the others, but the slight difference looks like it will either work itself out in veg, or I will just let her get bigger during the stretch with less training. I don't think I'm going to use a SCroG net this run. I plan on ordering silica to improve stem strength. I think a SCroG net works better in larger setups when you have multiple plants. My tent is just too small to work 4 plants in a SCroG setup. I can only access the front of the tent and the back and sides get neglected. So training and silica it is. As I said above, no watering needed today. However, I did reactivate the wick system for Tropicana Cookies today. She was drying out fairly quickly, so hopefully with the dryer container, it takes more time for the bottom to saturate. The lighting is staying the same. I'll check it at the beginning of next week. Although, with a tent this size and lack of space for the light, I'd just assume let the plants grow into it. Maybe I'll drop it to 24" when I see 4 nodes on all plants. The environment looks great! Cooler at night and nice and warm during lights on. The day temp is about 77° with a humidity of 66%. The night temp is 67° with a humidity of 78%. The humidity is a bit high, but I don't have an automated exhaust system like I do in the 3x3. I may turn the the exhaust on before I go to bed, but then the morning time will be dry before I wake up. Only for 2 hours, but still. The fluctuation is definitely not welcome. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.1° RH: 73.6% VPD: 0.78 kPa The VPD is a bit low. But that's due to the night time environment which I'll be adjusting tonight. May 11, 2024 Last day of the week for these 4. They have grown significantly over this week. Excellent leaf growth, beautiful green. All 4 plants look fantastic. Perfect structures. I can't ask for better. D is still a bit smaller, but is catching up. I don't expect her to stay small forever. I believe she will grow the same size at the end of the flowering stretch. B seems to be the largest, or most advanced, of the bunch. She is definitely ahead by a node, and a bit taller than the rest. However, her stem is a bit shorter than the rest. A and C both have longer stems, but lacking the robust growth of B. A and C are about the same. Nearly identical. These could be the same phenotype. With B and D being separate phenotypes. This coming week, I'll start reporting on the plants individually. It's a bit more work, but much more organized and easier to read. The light is definitely where it needs to be. I'll check DLI tomorrow. The environment is still near perfect. However, it was a bit low this morning. Apparently I didn't set the heat high enough. It's fixed now. The temp is around 77° and the humidity at 70%. No watering today. The pots are still fairly heavy. I think I'll water again tomorrow or test to see how moist the soil is. If I water tomorrow, I think it will only be a quarter gallon. Everything looks good and that's all there is to report today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 72.3% VPD: 0.79 kPa

4/22/21 - I’m staying on the nutrient feed schedule above (Week 2). I will switch to Week 3 on the schedule next week. Something might be eating one of the leaves but we couldn’t find any bugs (see pics). I fed them both with nutrients. 4/23/21 - I think the “bug problem” might be nutrient burn from accidentally getting the nutrients on the actual leaves. The plants are looking good today. Lots of growth underneath. The plants have grown half an inch since last week! 4/24/21 - Watered with nutrients again today. Going to start doing nutrients every other day. Plants are doing great, might need to defoliate again tomorrow. 4/25/21 - Lowered the light today and adjusted the fan to hit the plants better. One of the plants is feeling a little wilted to the touch, going to keep an eye on it over the next few days. 4/26/21 - Watered the plants with water today. (Ph 6) The wilted feeling plant hasn’t shown much improvement. Did some defoliation this morning. *Gave both plants a one gallon flush with Sledgehammer* 4/27/21 - I did not water the plants today. I am going to let the soil dry completely before I water again. The plants seem to be doing well since the flush. 4/28/21 - Today I watered both plants with nutrients. The wilted feeling plant feels much better today.

Preflowering, maximizing the sizes
