Seeing some initial plumping by FD 30 and even more in the current pictures. BBxGS - going strong and similar to previous plants of this strain. Grandpa's Stash - Loving the aromas. Except for 1 plant, definitely the fastest development rate so far Banana Hammock - The primary cause of the massive stink throughout my house, I think. Also develioping quickly. Overall, the plants are healthy. Some blemishes here or there. Had some trouble keeping up with RH, so I removed some leaves. I have been topping off the 3 hammocks and 2 bbxgs plants with plain water immediately following a fertigation. They were lookin too lush. I've done this 5-6 times over the last week and adding less than a 1/2 gallon to each. However, i think the night time temps dropping to 67-68F are the cause at this point and i am seeing purple creep into leaves not a toxicity. Have had some minor tip paling on 1 of the hammocks for at least 7-10 days, but it never progressed. If i get some exotic colors in these as they progress, i don't think this is necessarily a nute-related issue at this point. I upped K ppm when i initially saw it, but only slightly. Think these plants are just on the dark side. Thinking these will have dark purple leaves like my Dinafem OG Cookies grow. Even so, will continue to dilute just in case on the darker plants and cease doing that if i see a hint of deficiency. While trichome production has been great from an early stage of flower, I've been a bit disappointed by it lately. The ethos plants seem to be lagging a bit, but also seeing it on stems and petioles. The bbxgs plants continue to cake it on. I don't smoke stems, petioles or leavs, so it isn't a major concern. All that matters is the aerial density of trichomes on the calyxes. I'm sure they'll be okay. The smell is really intense for the last week. My house smells like it is harvest day, every day. Love it! Climate pics added / update - You can see where dehum settings change at end of day. It can barely keep up when plants are trasnpiring. I had to remove leaves in order for it to maintain 50% during lights on. Temps are consistent as long as outside weather isn't unusually warm. Like I've said before, probably operating a bit too high in VPD, but concentration of fertilizer is reduced slightly and the VPD at the leaf, where it matters, is probably a bit lower than these readings. Probe is 6" under canopy and would be more accurate if placed in the middle of it. Night time VPD used to be equal or even a bit higher before i started trackign this stuff. I've got that flipped back to normal, but no idea if that is a benefit or just my own OCD. According to what i've read, it shouldn't be more than .4 kPa below daytime VPD. At least that part has some research behind it as to why. A week of tweaking behaviours and settings at specific points in time has lead to as consistent of an environment as i'm going to get relatiave to what i'm willing to invest (time/effort). The night time graphs are an hour short because they are of the day of this update. Close enough for display purposes. I will make a spreadsheet that will link to the exported date file of the probe at some point. For now the graphs in the app are good enough. I want to collect a lot more data in future. Start to figure out just how impactful some of this is or is not. Ambient weather outside, growth measured in multiple ways (height / number of nodes), incremental use of water/fertilizer electricity (already have a good guage of this) etc etc.. Gonna do a full statstilal analysis andn regression of various factors over time... come back in 10-20 years, LOL. Then again, may proclivity for laziness may be a factor too.

We have had another very hot week. All my girls are suffering and display some ugly looking leaves. But so far the buds are doing well. Especially Plant 2, the mainlined plant, is producing some seriously fat buds. The smell is very interesting. Plant 1 measures 59 cm and Plant 2 is 73 cm tall.

week intel: we reached the peak of flowering stage and need to cause a little more e.c stress from this week so e.c stress is twice a week i reduced the amount of Nitrogen and calcium and stopped feeding silicate in other hand i raised the amount of base nutrient and booster short story version: more K & P - less N stresses : a little E.C stress around 1.6 and 1.7 twice a week from this week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them high with base nutrients(calcium & micros (half dose) + Bloom) about 822 ppm - 1.6 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 525 ppm - 1 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them high dose of Feeding Booster around 850 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause e.c stress again guide of the week : from this week we can cause more E.C stresses. e.c stress if done correctly is one of the very few ways to increase quality in all aspects ( color , aroma , taste , bud structure , resin contents ) but if you over do it , listen carefully brother : it can reduce quality in every aspect so always look for signs and never reach the red line.

Hello present and future growmies! Welcome to the start of week 9 for Queen Citronella. First things first, please go and check week 8, I update daily and the week is now complete. Day 57: Her majesty is parched and so overgrown in her space that I've decided to give her a haircut. It will hopefully make her easier to move about too. I've fertigated 10l today and performed LST adjustments and significant defoliation. Made a little collage to show the training I did. Day 58: Tried to colour correct photos. Any good? Day 60: Disaster! SOMETHING has gone horribly wrong! The Queen is unwell and now I shall try to figure out why. It seems like heat stress but I don't get how. Alright I think it is heat stress but I am not sure how, the temp hasn't gone above 26 degrees to my knowledge. Two things have changed this week first my house has been about 3 degrees warmer, and second I switched the main tent to 20 hours. I wonder if the additional time and the extra heat in the house has caused it to get too high. I have opened a flap at the side of her tent, and I am going to drop the light in the main tent down to 19h. As well as this I am now leaving a window open when the lights are on. Hopefully I can stop it getting worse but it is all over the plant. :( Okay soI think I have caused nute tox/shock - specifically I think what happened was an accidental big overdose of CalMag raising the EC too high. These symptoms came on way too fast to be a simple deficiency or lock out, and the PH wasn't so far off as to cause these issues. I've treble checked and the temp hasn't exceeded 26 degrees, nor dropped below 17. I flushed her through with PH water today approx 40 litres - until runoff was clear and correct PH. I am not going to nute her for a day or two. Day 62: I have ordered the queen a new tent. 75 x 75 x 200. She's still asleep at the moment but I'll photo her later. She's really taken a hammering from, what I now believe is, nutrient toxicity. Day 62: Her majesty is looking much revived compared with the last few days. I THINK she will be ok. I've made a video assessing the damage. Ouch. Sorry your majesty, please not off with my head! Day 63: Alright I have a new tent for her majesty arriving next week and I've new airflow for the main tent. She seems to have recovered from the burn and is stretching again. End of week summary: First big mistake and first serious issues for Citronella. Sorry about that. However she has now recovered and is growing again. I cannot undo the damage but I think I have halted any further damage. Let's see what happens next week.

Testing for Connoisseur genetics Outback haze #1 7th March 2022 Welcome to week 23 😀 Both of these ladies are looking fantastic as they progress into the blooming stage 💪 Absolute monster on the left is my favourite of the two but the other isn't too bad either . Neither have needed any feeds with the soil providing plenty of nutrition at this stage. 100% sativa's or in this case haze are fairly low maintenence when it comes to feeding . chuck in some manure or something ( I am using guano ) and they will happily grow along nicely . Did you know that Connoisseur genetics are looking for new testers for their newest strains?? to be considered you just need to have had a few diaries with harvests Thanks once again for stopping by 👍 *****Major Update 10th March ***** Plant two developed ball sacks along with her pistils so unfortunately I had to pull her out and destroy the plant. I know some people might think I could have tried removing the sacs and giving the plant a chance . But I am trying to make myself some F1 hybrids and do not want any Hermies anywhere near my females . Now because this strain has Thai genetics there is always that chance they throw "nanners" but usually later in flower so for this one to show itself right on the start of flowering is enough for me to pull it , burn it with fire . Or in this case I'm gonna let the sun solarise it and then it'll be mulched with other plant materials from my garden.

Die Woche war naja so okay die Blätter hängen nicht mehr allerdings sind sie immer noch angefressen ich weiß nicht was es ist ich habe sie jetzt Vor paar Tagen getoppt. Und habe sie auch in die Blüte geschickt allerdings weiß ich nicht ob sie durch ein Experiment habe auch hier Nematoden hinzugefügt weil wir irgendwelche Würmer im Boden entdeckt haben beziehungsweise Larven von den Fliegen die überall rum fliegen. Jetzt abwarten wenigstens stehen die Blätter wieder schön ganze wächst weiter das war wohl viel Stress mit in die Blüte schicken und Toppen in einer Woche aber abwarten. Ich hoffe dass die Blätter so sind wegen den Fliegen und nicht wegen über Besserung allerdings habe ich sie auch austrocknen lassen und jetzt noch mal neu gegossen mit den Nematoden bis nächste Woche

Jetzt lässt sich eine durchgängige Blütenentwicklung beobachten und die Grüße wird sich vermutlich nicht mehr Stark ändern. Allerdings bleibt die Blütenausbildung etwas hinter der Skywalker OG, was sich dann wohl in einer längeren Blütezeit zeigen wird. Daher gehe ich davon aus, dass der Stretch allmählich abgeschlossen ist. In der folgenden Woche bekommt die Pflanze nun einen Kompostee von Biotabs NL. 💚

Things are going well this past week GG#1 still suffering a little big from my mess up but over all she seems to be doing ok . The leaves on both GG#1 and GG#2 are both starting to gain some colour now they are starting to get purple around the edges of the leaves so pretty soon Im going to have some extra pretty looking plants !! :D :D :D Things are going to take roughly 1 week longer then I thought originally but thats fine ! I'm really looking forward to the next few weeks to come ! I'd like to thank everyone who stops by and checks out the diary . A special thank you goes out to my followers you guys are the bomb keep on keeping on !!! I hope everyone is enjoying what ever holiday they celebrate ! -Happy Growing!

11/20 Monday she’s doing really good she won’t need water today I moved the light pretty far away I may even turn the temperature down even more I am flowering three blackjacks in the other tent of the same size at 90 W with the Mars Hydro light so for the last week I may just take it down even more two weeks I smoked some after just drying it for two or three days and it is completely different from smoking blackjack. It is a very intense sedative smell. Smells like gum smells great, but I’m kind of astounded at how strong it is. After smoking just a little bit I was moving super slow motion. . . Took me over two hours to pour one cup of coffee. That’s how slow time became. It was greatest day of my life. 11/21 Tuesday. I just squeezed the buds a little bit and these are the most dense buds that I have grown in the three years that I’ve been learning to do this. The only difference is I used the Boombastic and I used fruit infusion by General hydroponics yesterday, so I really think that one nutrient supplement the Boombastic has made all the difference. I’ve never had that before. It’s so great greatest day of my life. 11/22 gave half gallon of water with nutrients and supplements 11/24 I gave her just plain water today. I think I’m just gonna do water for the last couple of weeks. She is looking spectacular really starting to take off now. I think she has enough nutrients in the soil so I shouldn’t eat any for the last couple of weeks I always put too much. 11/25 Saturday morning. I gave her a little bit more water this morning i’m going to keep her nutrient free I think for the rest of the grouch she only has maybe two more weeks and I don’t wanna make the mistake of doing this too long on critical. She’s doing really good. This is one of my best ones I think maybe two weeks more.

These things have been chunking up very nicely in the past 2 weeks. The only 2 plants that I grew where i have pulled 0 buds with botrytis from!! These were the most amazing strains to grow from seedling right up to end of flowering!! I am 100% going to be growing many many WICKED GENETICS strains over this winter I cannot wait so much chem and sour and kush strains going to be an amazing winter for me and my friends!!! Next entry will more than likely be HARVEST!!! ✌️⚙️💨⛽️🦄

Muy ansioso con este proyecto, mi primer cultivo s.o.g gracias a royalqueenseeds. 48 hrs en papel húmedo dentro de un pote hermético y luego 24 hrs en sustrato a luz apagada antes de comenzar con el fotoperiodo de vegetación. El sustrato es lightmix y solo añadi micorrizas granulares . Veremos como resulta este proyecto 💪✌️🍀

La planta más grande ya va casi en su 5to nodo! Se agrego paja en la superficie de la maceta para que el sol no penetre directamente en el sustrato para evitar que se forme una capa dura El sol ha estado bastante picante
