Overall a good week. I think the aphid army kicked in - noticeably less flea things floating around. Have to get the diaries organized better 😂. Green leopard tent should be here so next week expect to have that up - easy to follow one seed bank in each tent

Day 43 - First day of week 7 today and she looks really good just not sure if she’s really starting to flower yet. I’m hoping this is just typical of the GC strain. Day 44 - No major changes, she’s growing and I’m loving the looks of her. Will continue uploading daily pictures. Day 45 - She’s looking really good and budding more and more each day. Gave her straight pH’d water today and tomorrow and will give her another feeding on Saturday. She’s drinking almost a gallon of water a day. Day 46 - Things are looking good with this girl. Bud sites are growing daily and this thing is a beauty. Gave her another feeding of just pH’d water and will “feed” her tomorrow. Day 47 - ALL is looking good and she’s looking purdy. Gave her a feeding with the foxfarm nutes today. Did a true measurement to the biggest branch and she’s at 25.5”. Will continue to measure each day to see how much she’s growing in a 24 hour period. Day 48 - Looking gorgeous and still stretching. Grew another two inches and is sitting at 27.5” right now. She’s really starting to fill in now and looking forward to the next few weeks. Day 49 - The way thing thing is growing, she’s gonna be a beast. Gave her straight pH’d water tonight and will give her a feeding tomorrow. Looks like she finally stopped stretching, sitting at 27.5” still so hopefully she’ll start putting on the weight.

because I fell behind last week, I had to much vegetation in the middle and under the canopy, I had to remove the net, omg, that was a 2 day hassle,but it is out, I have untwisted the branches, I'm am very lightly defoliating daily just a couple here and ther to try and get them thinned out so I can drop humidity, I have a 90 pint dehumidifier, and it has been on non stop and still can't bring my rh down, the smell is very sweet and fruity, very excited, they all look much better after getting them un clumped up, I'm aiming for a 9-10 week flower, and with it only being week 5, I am very excited.

plants were majorly defoliated and are flowering awesomely! just the small one is showing some deficiencies due to unstable pH ---- mid week update: i am becoming kind of concerned about buds themselves – they seem rather small at this stage 😳

Tag 98: Nachdem die Shogun etwas "geschlafen" und eher ab statt aufgebaut hat, ist sie doch seit ein paar Tagen wieder in den Gang gekommen und die Blüten sind schön weitergewachsen. Tag 102: Es scheint ein Kühler August zu werden, das ist ganz Wunderbar für meine Pflanzen 😍 jetzt in der Endphase.

Hey growers, not much to report I have had good progress this week. The Purple Punch is still alittle ahead of the WW still but not much. I saw some pistols start popping as I tried to show in the video but was hard to get, so right on time with the early flower stages. I have started to do some leaf tucking as well to help get some light exposure which has worked wonders! All in all good week nothing to complain 🙌 See ya next week✌️ Happy Growing 🌳

She grew 10cm this week! Next week I'm going to change the HID bulb I use in the tent. Currently it's quite a red spectrum. I'm going to swap it to a more blue/daylight 1000w item.

Good week of growth. Bud sites are starting to come together. Brooke is still really close to light, will see what happens. Bent branches are doing well. 10-2 Buds are starting to look like buds. Got first good photos of forming colas.

06.05. Day 57 Blüte 34. ("60-65 Max,") Oh mann. Sieht die gut aus. OK einige alte Blätter werden ledrig hellgrün. Das schreibe ich Ähh dem Alter zu? Solange sie sich nicht ringeln oder Braun werden lasse ich sie dran. Die Knospen sind wunderschön und dick. Der Duft original Alpine Delight. 😇😇😁😂😅 NEIN, DAS HILFT NICHT! I know, allerdings ist der Geruch... Ihre 13.50€ wert. (ein Kompliment) Und das von mir. 08.05 das gesamte Zelt mit Zimt Wasser besprüht. Könnte gegen Spinnmilben helfen. 09.05. Es hilft... Ein zwei Blätter entfernt. 10.04. Die Knospen werden immer dicker.

The ladies really didn’t have too much change this week except girl #2 seems like she’s caught up in height to girl #1. I have to make a correction to from week 3. I stated I topped the girls when i actually did some light FIMing.I wanted to be sure i corrected that mistake before my diary process any further. I kind of went a little too heavy on the feeding and the girls showed some slight yellowing and a 1 leaf started to Slightly curl into a taco. Nothing too serious but I definitely will be dialing back on the feeding doses. decided to do some defoliation To the fan leafs that were significantly blocking light from future bud sites. I’m not sure how these girls will take to me cutting off foliage. Only time will tell. These girl are starting to put off Some stank. The smell it’s very strong but you can get a sense of what’s to come. It smells of gassy sweet pineapple citrus. Have to admit I was skeptical until I did a stem rub and these girls were spot on. When rubbing the stem they smell so much more sweeter almost like a candy sweet smell. really appreciate all who have viewed my diary. I’m actually shocked how people viewed it so far. Thank you very much for the love 💚. I’m grateful and humbled for your support. Hopefully these girls start to go into the pre flowering stage in the next week, I’m over excited to see them develop. Again thank you all for your support and comments and suggestions are welcomed💚
