Tropicana cookies finally finished.l, She smells amazing. Cookie dough, peanut butter, and earth. She's showed her dark purple colors the last few weeks. The purple is so dark it's almost black. But mixed with a bright green she is a Beauty to look at. Week 11 harvest weight 77gs dry. She tasted like peanut butter cookies with a little twist. Week 14 harvest 62.3 Gs Total weight 139 Flush vs no Flush I personally liked the flushed better but I only dry for 5 day before I tried this could change over time with cure. Dr Bruce Bugbee says research showes, flushing is just bro science and fertilizer can't be in the flower because of Photosynthesis. Personally I'm keeping a open mind.I think I can flush in 5 or lest days. I'm going to keep testing different flush periods until I find what works for me. Dry tent is set to 60% humidity with air flow

Heeey! πŸ‘‹ Another update! :D This week I made another transplant, this time from the drink cups to a small 3.5 liter pot and I also applied some more mycorrhizas to my babies! πŸ˜ƒ From both of them Pistachio seems to be the one who's developing faster and Matcha is trying to catch her sister. The plants ended with about 19500 lumens! Couldn't rise them more because of heat issues 😟 The only tricky part this week was when I decided to add a bit of growing nutrients to my plants so I ended up watering them a lot after the transplant and the results were quite shocking! I barely added 2ml of total nutrients per liter but the runoff water I got was around the 1400 ppm which all honestly scared me a lot! That's way too much for two young plants (and I believe some of the excess nutrients can be seen on Matcha) nonetheless they are still developing so I'll just continue with water for now till they start to lose color (the Light Mix I used should have enough 'food' for at least 2 weeks, so that's good I believe! Besides that everything went well. I'm using tap water for my humidifier and its sediments are being thrown into the air by it, but so far it seems my plants are doing well. During the last 4 days the plants developed a lot in their new pots so I'm quite happy for that! If things go well next week I'll be moving them to their final container! Thanks everyone for reading! I hope you'll all enjoy my new timelapses and photos! :D

Week 7 of flowering 10/30/24 Changed nutrients to fit week 7 Buds are getting even bigger and thicker. Last week PH drop happened again a couple of days after the major flush. PH in rootzone is getting lower every day. Runoff still at 10-20%, so no salt buldup, EC same as intake or litttle higher. Flushed again with FloraKleen and watered with TriPart Micro, Grow, Bloom with CalMag. Bought Potassium Bicarbonate and Calcium Carbonate as suggested by "Aqua Man", to buffer coco in the future. (https://www.thcfarmer.com/threads/ph-dropping-from-5-8-to-3-9-overnight-what-is-causing-this.87011/post-2329509) changed nutes on 11/2/24, to FinalPart at 1.3 EC. Checking runoff PH and EC daily.

LIGHT: Playing around with various heights on the new light. Worried, because Cheecha is not doing well at all. Can't tell if it is nutrient burn, light burn, root rot, or dehydration. WATER: Getting ready for a trip this week, so allowing the soil to dry a few days, then I'll give each plant a good watering with a mild fertilizer mix. TRAINING: The topping looks like it worked well, with noticeable new leaves appearing.

8/8 Rained all night. Still raining today and the forecast says it will continue throughout the day until midnight. It's come down heavy at times but for the most part it's a rain that plants like. Defoliated a couple leaves but nothing really needed it. Without a trellis or my tarps up the grow bags seem to dry out incredibly fast so I need to watch that. It's also "toughened" up the plant wants. I've seen them blowing straight sideways and they were fine. I do need to find that four lined plant bug and spray BT after the rain. Plants lovedcthe nutes. I might feed a little later today or tomorrow. I've got a few things to do but I'll keep this updated. Went over and defoliated ANYTHING that needed it and combed through every plant during a pause in the storm. Then I shook them all off and did a video. This is by far the healthiest crop I've grown! I think they can handle more nutes too so I'm going to up it next feed. Still seeing stptadoc chunks missing and random pillar damage. BT will handle it. It's just so minor I'm not even sure if it should be addressed that way. I've had pretty good luck just looking for them and picking them off. 8/9 Cannabis can grow an inch or two in a day and it definitely has been! The rain has finally stopped. I went and shook all my plants off. I'm going to check and see the last time I fed and try to get a feeding schedule created that won't cause lockout. That's been a problem in the past. I've defoliated a lot of leaves lately but EVERYTHING is looking amazing. Extremely healthy. I DO need to spray BT for the pillars and I need to move that one plant back. I keep forgetting to grab the little wheels I need to make a platform. There are other ways I could do it I guess. I'll keep this updated. No damage from the storm and I went through and defoliated before and after. Forgot to upload shit and now I'm back home with this shitty internet connection. I'm trying to upload this video but we'll see. It's at like 32%. I did a full workout and came back to find this at 77% lol. I need to remember to upload things when I'm not in the middle of the woods. UPDATE: Checked on things and did a video. Need to feed, apply bt and secure individual branches before flowering increases 8/10 LOOKS to be a beautiful day. Growbags are heavy as hell and wet on the bottom. I ALMOST fed today and I still might. The pp in the 10 seems to have leeched a lot of nutes. That and a giant blueberry cheese are the only places I'm seeing a deficiency and I want to keep it simply. I also need to put a trellis up apply BT. also if I'm going to move things around I've got to do it before I put up flowering supports. It's harder to move stuff when it's wet. I'll keep this updated. The girls look fantastic. UPDATE: Went and trellised two of my plants. I was going to feed today but decided to wait until the next time I water. I'm only seeing deficiencies on the phrple punch in the ten and the GIANT blueberry cheese that I watered the most. Bags were heavy as hell this morning but I bet I'll need to water tomorrow. We'll see. Hahaha wow. I'm trying to upload a video but even my tough as fuck plants might have some difficulty in torrential rains like this. Wow. That's all I can say. I'll either go check and shake them off tonight or if it keeps it up I'll wait until morning I guess. What a shit show 8/11 WOW. That's probably the hardest I've ever seen it rain. Got to the grow this morning and found NO damage. It's super sunny amd windy so the bags will probably dry out. I think it's suppised to rain again Sunday. I definitely haven't had to water that's for sure. Nothing was even bent over this morning. The blue cheese I didn't fim or top (I wanted to see gow it grew naturally) pop ka was bent down a little bit but not much considering the pounding it got. You can see on the videos. Since bags were saturated I didn't need to water before I fed. I fed 1.25 pints to every plant. I gave the fifty 2.5 pints and the purple punch in the 10 got closer to a pint. I want to start out slow with nutes as I'm nor seeing many deficiencies. I may fuck around today and put some more trellises up seeing this wind bur when flower comes I can just put my tarp up. I'll update as I go. UPDATE: WENT BACK OVER BECAUSE THE WIND WAS WHIPPING LIKE CRAZY AND TREES WERE DOWN. I SANITIZED ALL MY TRELLISING AND HORIZONTALLY TRELLISED TWO 10TH PLANETS IN FRONT AND VERYICAL TRELLISED THE THIRD. HORIZONTAL TRELLISED THE PURPL WE PUNCH IN THE 10 AND VERTICAL TRELLISED THE BLUE CHEESE IN THE 50 AND THE 10TH PLANET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CAGE. GLAD I GOT THIS DONE. NOW I JUST NEED TO SPRAY BT AND I'LL FEEL CAUGHT UP. 8/12 Got my supports up and ready now I've just got to find the time to give the girls an application of BT. I've done a pretty good job with manual removal thus far. Bags are over watered. It's Rained so hard and so often that the bags have stayed drenched. Luckily this ridiculous wind has been drying my grow bags out relatively fast. I'm hoping that will be the case today. They're starting to dry out but it's supposed to rain tonight and I think tomorrow. Bright and sunny right now. These are some resilient plants. They seemed to like the liquid kool bloom. I noticed (barely noticeable but I was looking for it) a SLIGHT color change at the very TIPS of a few leaves on a plant but not enough to consider it burn. I will monitor but I think ive got a pretty good feeding regimen. I plan to use as little as I can get away with. I'll keep this updated. UPDATE: WENT TO CHECK ON PLANTS AS I GOT "THAT FEELING". EVERYTHING WAS LOOKING GREAT BUT THEN I WENT AND LIFTED MY DRY 22GALS OF SOIL AND COMPATED IT TO MY 20S AND LIKE I THOUGHT THE WIND HAD DRIED THEM OUT. I CANT BELIEVE HOW QUICK THEY DRY OUT. I GAVE EVERYTHING 1.5 GALLONS AT LEAST EXCEPT FOR THE 10 WHICH I GAVE A LITTLE LESS THAN A GALLON. I GAVE THE 50 A LITTLE OVER 2 GALLONS AND I DISNT NOTICE RUNOFF. I HAD MORE WATER MIXED UP IM THINKING I SHOULDVE GIVEN IT ANOTHER GALLON. OH WELL ITS SUPPISED TO RAIN A LITTLE TONIGHT AND THEN TOMORROW. I HAVEN'T WAYERED IN LIKE A WEEK SO I PROBABLY SHOULD'VE GIVEN THE WHOLE 2 GALLONS. THEY GOT DAMN CLOSE THOUGH. 8/13 Rained like hell last night. Oh course it did. Doesn't really matter though. I had to water. I thibk the last time "I" watered was lime a week ago. My bags were dry. Plants weren't drooping and they might've been ok but I've under-watered twice already to the point they drooped right over dead looking and I wasn't going to do that again. Plants seem to love the nutes I gave. Keeping the tarps off and allowing the wind through and having my bags on pallets has really saved me this year. Everyone else is bitching about the rain and lack of sun but things are going great for me knock on wood. I'm not 'in the ground' though so that probably has something to do with it. I just need to check my plants multiple times a day. These plants are getting massive. The cage is at least 8ft tall and the biggest one is about to the top now. Almost as wide too. 8/14 I forgot to write the entry but I uploaded some pics from this morning. They were wet from the storm but I went back over and took video that's like two and a half minutes plus I took some pictures. I pulled the cage out but I need to undue one of the lathes and pull it forward. I also need to apply BT. Plants seem to be aggressively flowering (some more than others) so it's a real exciting time. I went over this afternoon and everything looked fantastic. I'll try to upload a few pictures but the video will have to wait. Didn't rain today and my bags sry out quick so I'm sure they'll be fine even if it rains. I did notice that the two plants I watered most including the smallest container seem lighter in color. IT might hust be the transition to flower but u think I need to increase feed. On the 10th planet's they are green as can be and have that SLIGHT little almost unnoticeable part you really have to look for on the tips that means it's getting its nutes but it's not burnt. I believe I'm going to have to make feeding schedules for each strain

Now we're growin'! Buds popping out everywhere, only two Viper Cookies still apparently in veg. The Lamb's in the 10 gal is really spreading her wings, I've had to adjust the pots a little to compensate for the overcrowding (a problem which I am happy to have). Chemdog is really budding strong, I like what I'm seeing but I hope they plump up. The smaller plants are making up for their size with an abundance of pretty little future nugs. Even the two Lemon OG's (not listed here, ran outta room for strains) are looking good and they were kinda a last minute addition. Had some bug issues--just minor though. Worse damage than that was done by me and my slightly over-zealous LST. The foliage is lookin good, rich and green. I've had to pull a good deal of yellow leaves lately, but I'm pretty sure they've just been used up and aged out. Lots of humid weather now, of course. No problems yet, though. As a preventative measure I've defoliated a little heavier than before, making sure every part of the plant can breathe. I use the morning dew as a guide-- with my location the wind almost always blows and by about 8 am I can see any patches of growth that might be too thick because they still have a lot of dew. So far this method has worked, and I don't see any major slow downs in growth from the haircuts. Been watching a lot of DGC and thinking Recharge might be useful, but I'm pretty stuck with what I got this year (too damn rooted to do much with the soil any more). Awesome place for info though-- the more I learn the more I want to learn. 8/22 -- Bud worms. Bastards. Heavy neem spraying will hopefully bring it under control. Been watching these girls constantly (lot of time on my hands at the right time of year), and the buggers sure made headway fast. Been finding a few, like one or two, each day. Today I checked and found over a dozen on one plant. I neemed the bulk of the plants, leaving two of the smaller ones un-sprayed. I couldn't spray the very tops of the bigger plants very well because they're topping 7 - 8 feet and too close together to fit the ladder (planning-- live and learn). I moved the smaller unsprayed plants to the side of the garden and I'm hoping that if they're really hell bent on infesting something they'll take the bait and at least leave the bigger girls alone. Meanwhile, remnants of the hurricane are headed this way keeping shit really really moist all around. So far so good for bud rot still, but it's prime time. 8/23-- Hmmm. What could tip a 5 gal bag, saturated, supported with lines, with a 7 1/2 ft flowering female in it, without breaking or even bending the plant? I want to believe it's not a human pest......but thinking my pest tried to grab her and couldn't get it past the lines. I'm all ears if anyone has other ideas (wind- no. deer- no.) So assuming I have an asshole in the neighborhood, it's back to old school. I really liked the idea of not worrying about them so much, I thought poeple might be better these days, but I guess not. Time for stakeouts and hidden cams. 8/25-- Had to spray BT for the damn caterpillars. Not a lot of damage so far, but keeping an eye on it. Fortunately the buds are still tiny so easy to spot damage. I'm really pleased with the number of bud sites in general, especially on the Lamb's Bread. I'll have to climb the ladder and see if I can get some good photos next week. No sign of my human infestation. Been watching close and checking cams and nothing. The flash went off a few times, but I was out in less than a minute and saw nothing, and nothing in the photos it took either. Ganja ghosts???

Good 🦍, nice looking AutoBuds, Upper buds are ready, did some serious defoliation, maybe a bit too much 😁, I was on a row, planning to cut soon, give some extra light to the lower buds, looking forward to dry and smoke this Gorilla glue,

flipped to flower a couple days ago. you'll see a defoliation in the timelapse, they bounce back just so quick it's insane. just barely started stretching yesterday/today. super excited for that and to see how my canopy / quadline works out in the end. i've gone down a whole living soil / organics rabbit hole recently with BuildASoil and One Straw Revolution etc etc. I really think I'm going to switch to large living soil beds for my next grow. That said, I've started adding in some foliar and root drenches with organic products - BuildABloom, fish hydrolysate, freeze dried coconut and aloe. Plants seem to really be enjoying it, after applying they just seem so happy. really happy with the smell I'm getting and don't even have pistils, much less flower yet. So that's pretty much where I'm at. Wyze camera dropped the ball on the timelapse for the...sixth week in a row. I set it up, it seems to be running fine all week and then at the end it's missing days and corrupted. I got my hands on a linux script to make timelapses out of the raw footage, so this week I'm just recording continuously and going to try and run that.

Starting week 3 of flowering and week 6 of over all growth. she seems to be very happy now that I've fixed the pH issue and she is growing pretty fast. I decided to do a decent defoliation and pull everything to the sides again trying to keep her as wide as possible. I also super-cropped a few of the shoots in the middle to keep them at the same height as the branches I pulled down and to the side.

Week5 Vegetative steering Day 29 β€”β€”β€”β€”- 4 minute shots(220+-ml). 50-60klux 68 leaf temp Defoliated/Lollipopped Plants seem to be inefficiently spaced. I moved them all closer and they are now positioned better under the lights β€”β€”β€”β€” Day 30 VPDis about a .95 Vegetative steering schedule for 3gal who drink a little over a quart a day 220 P1 440 P1 660 P1 880 P1 1000 P1 1220 P2 1330(1%)P3 I achieve runoff at end of P1 then do a maintenance shot and finish the day off with a watering. P1 waters every 15 min starting 1.5hours after lights on Plants are swelling. But not as well as when i use CO2. I think plants in flower still need co2 so that we can get these lights closer.(as long as the leaf(temp does not go over 80 and vpd stays good) Also, i found a plant to have hermied in week 2 so i removed the pollen sac and rubbed some pollen on 2 plants. Seems like they are just starting to take form on the flowers. **need to check for hermies beginning week 2** Am happy to get seeds from these ladies as this was very isolated in the grow ________________ Day 31 Plants are starting to frost. Group1 has swelled the most Group 2 has average growth and nice frost Group 3 looks like it was over dosed. *Bras&MJ study shows that MJ does mot need to be sprayed with Bras as it will over stress the plants. Brass was completely fine to spray without having adverse reactions. MJ seems to decrease yields but is a worthy tradeoff(will continue to use)-* β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Day 32 Sprayed 2 plants with MJ(they now have been sprayed both week 4&6) Sprayed 3 with bras(also have been sprayed twice in flower) Finally frosting On the plants

1. LABS - I suggest using distilled water for the entire process ( no chlorine or chloramine). I also suggest the type of rice product shown ( 1/2 cup), it has red, brown, white, and black rice blended together. You get the benefits of each type. 2. Take the rice that was used in making the rice rinse for labs and boil it in 3 cups of water for 30 mins. Strain the rice out. Add 1 TBSP molasses per 300 mls. Use 300 mls of the above mixture during your watering cycles. It contains starches, b vitamins, aminos, trace minerals, calcium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, and some nitrogen. The ppm’s are not higher than 200 ( if using distilled water). This is ONLY used if your plants are healthy. If your plants are sick…this will NOT help them. It will make stuff worse!!! The Hulk-Berry got a new home. 1 tsp 7-3-1, 1/2 tsp 0-12-0, 1/2 tsp Langbeinite, 1 TBSP 2-2-2, 3 TBSP 4-3-3, worm castings, recharge (1/32 tsp) into the soil ( Mother Earth). The 3 RuntZ are coming back from slow growth at the outset. I added LABS, Lentil SST, Photosynthesis Plus to the media. I did a foliar spray with recharge. 24-36 hours later the leaves exploded with growth and height. I added ZERO nutrients!!! I only used natural inputs and bacteria to get the root zone back in order. 11-3. Things are all in check! The LABS, SST’s and Rice wash have gotten the 3 RuntZ back on track. The Hulkberry is in full swing. I think I can get to 3 feet by flower time with the Hulkberry 11-5 All is well today!!! Everyone is very happy after the cal-mag, Photosynthesis Plus, kelp bath

2/14: Decreased distance between the lights and canopy. Let the maximum swell commence! 2/16: Fed today..increased sugars/carbs. This was probably the last feeding with Beastie Bloomz..switching to Cha Ching at next feed and cutting back on the One.

Running 4 autos in the same aeroponic system isnt ideal as 2 of my plants need to flush this week.. while the other 2 still have about 2 weeks again... its all good tho.. id take it out an flush them individually before harvesting.

It's a little tedious currently as I had 2 plants( bag seed and dark angel)going before my new set up arrived and was installed. After I set everything up I sowed 3 autos(ethos) 3 days later everything has popped and is looking good thus far. I have one in a 20g fab pot, 7g fab pot, and a 3g fab pot.

From the start the sour zkittlez show me nothing really outside the fact that she's fine I didn't really see much at her seedling stage but down in flower is where this lady shines, she is just really a good strain. She smells amazing, the buds get a beautiful color in the last part of flowering, got no issues while growing unless you count I had to support her and to me that's fine because the final product I got from the sour zkittlez and how she was grown I would definitely recommend to friends and family and also do a few more rounds with her.

Day 84. Very tall, big plant. I think it'll be a high yielder. Very impressed with Twisted Trees genetics. Day 86. Nice purples showing thru.
