Flowering day 72
since time switch
to 12/12 h.
Hey guys :-)
Finally the time has come .
The lady was harvested and hung upside down in the dry tent 😍.
Before that, she stood in the drying tent in complete darkness for 2 days and the large leaves were removed.
The small leaves stay attached during the drying process so that they protect the buds and allow them to dry more slowly and evenly :-) .
In the dry tent, the temperature is 18-19.5 degrees and the humidity is 54-58% 👍.
In this environment they are now allowed to hang for 10-14 days before they are fine-tuned and trimmed clean by hand.
then after trimming they come to ferment for 6-12 weeks in dark jars with bobeda packs 62% to keep the perfect humidity.
After a few weeks, the Boveda packs 58% are used so that they can slowly dry out :-) .
Of course there is one last update after trimming.
Until then, I wish you a lot of fun with the update.
Stay healthy and let it grow 💚🙏🏻

Triming a bunch of leaves and branches 10mins in morning ten at night before co2 kicks on.
I flipped sooner then normal because they where very aggressive. And they are hitting the lights at day 21 :(
I was able to to creep the light up 3 inches with some temporary straps touching the light.
I hope that 3 inches is all I need (that's what she said)..
Otherwise plant is amazingly aggressive and smelly lots of tops and sites..

Day 7 of Veg:
They have not stretched that much this week because there was not much sun, colder temperatures at night.
Hopefully they invested their energy in rooting. I do expect them to grow alot in the comming week.
Might LST them or even HST, not sure yet.

Trichomes are developing well, still mostly clear at the moment. The plant has finished stretching and is now focusing on bulking. I slightly increased her feed and hope she’ll put on more weight soon.

Journal de culture – Semaine 4 de croissance (fin)
Je ne suis vraiment pas satisfait de la plante, que je trouve faiblarde et manquant de vitalité. Son développement est lent, et je suspecte que la température, qui descend peut-être trop bas la nuit, pourrait en être la cause. Cependant, même le pied-mère de cette variété n’a pas une croissance exceptionnelle, ce qui me fait penser que le phénotype de cette variété n’est peut-être pas très bon.
Pour ne pas perdre trop de temps, j’ai décidé de la passer en floraison aujourd’hui, avec un cycle de lumière 12-12. J’ai également changé la soupe et préparé 20 litres avec les nutriments nécessaires à la floraison. Sachant que cette variété a tendance à beaucoup stretcher, j’ai pratiqué du LST (Low Stress Training) pour recourber les sommités. Cependant, j’ai accidentellement cassé un apex, laissant seulement trois apex au lieu de quatre.
Bien que je ne sois pas satisfait de cette plante ni du pied-mère, je vais finaliser cette culture et passer à une autre variété ensuite.
🇺🇸Cultivation Journal – Week 4 of Vegetative Growth (End)
I’m really not satisfied with the plant; it seems weak and lacks vitality. Its development is quite slow, and I suspect the nighttime temperatures might be dropping too low. However, even the mother plant of this strain doesn’t show great growth, so I’m thinking the phenotype might not be very good.
To avoid wasting more time, I’ve decided to switch it to flowering today, setting the light cycle to 12-12. I also replaced the nutrient solution, preparing 20 liters with the ingredients required for flowering. Knowing this strain stretches a lot, I applied LST (Low Stress Training) to bend the tops. Unfortunately, I broke one of the four apexes, so now there are only three left.
Even though I’m not happy with this plant or the mother plant, I’ll finish this grow and move on to another strain afterward.

Outdoor coco 15g pots
Progress:
Lava cake is about week 6.5. Starting to ripen and get heavy. Buds are getting fat. Strong sweet cookie/ ice cream smell. Buds are getting more frosty. Buds are getting so heavy I installed a net on 3 of 4 and doing #4 soon. On my most mature plant - About 25-30% of pistils have turned color. Some trichomes are milky, none amber. Looks like plants are a few days apart.
Marathon OG week 5 1/2. Still stacking and getting fat. Smells dank. Trichomes are showing up. The 20 gallon OG is growing into a monster. I’m still waiting for the heavy bud stacks….
Nutes:
Bumping up ppm, the dry koolbloom and molasses, stopping regular koolbloom and grow. Looking to starting flushing the lava cake in a week or so. Feeding 2x a day; 3x on hot days.
Weather:
Had a good week of cooler temps until yesterday, when it was 97. Looking at hugs in the 80s this week, perfect.
Pests:
The moths and caterpillars are in full swing so I’m applying BT every morning. I’m working hard to reduce caterpillar 🐛 losses. We lost all of the top colas on a plant in another location 💔 . I’m only losing one bud at a time and not the entire colas so far.
Wishing fat buds and monster harvests to all.

Eccoci! Prima settimana di questa esperienza idroponica, sembra che nonostante i primi giorni abbia avuto alcuni problemi ad iniziare a sviluppare le radici, ora sembra che tutto stia andando per il meglio e le piccoline hanno iniziato a svilupparsi molto bene, spero che grazie a questo sistema DWC di Mars Hydro sono sicuro che avrò successo, e anche soprattutto ad i nutrienti di qualità di Terra Aquatica che mi hanno già dato risultati fenomenali in terra ma sono sicuro che in idroponica me ne daranno molti di più, spero di continuare la collaborazione con loro e che mi diano altri nutrienti poiché sto iniziando a finire le bottiglie con i loro stupendi prodotti, tutto questo grazie a tutti voi che mi sostenete e mi seguite! Grazie vi adoro questa comunità di Grow Diaries è davvero la cosa migliore che mi sia mai capitata in questo periodo della mia vita! Un buon 420 a tutti voi! 💪😸👌🌱🌿🧑🌾🤞😺💖

It’s not quite week 3 flowering, more so 2.5 wks. I had no choice but to remove a dozen of inner shoots because of how dense the canopy is. Should be it for defo until harvest. This weekend will mark 4 weeks since the last top dress so it’ll be a nice mix included in next wk update. I transplanted into bigger pots with a mix of glacial rock dust, 2-8-4, Kelp Meal.
