Peyote slowed down a bit, Broke a couple mains like a tool while doing some Lst bending. But she is moving along again. White widow is kicking ass and just going nicely. Great flower development all over her.. Blacksugar small but still moving slow with that tight pinch in the lower trunk. But the ladies are healthy and happy so I’m happy. Gonna start germinating orange creamsicle soon to follow these up.

Ya se han notado un monton de avances en cuanto a maduracion de flores, se ha tomado la decesion de esperar a secar las 4 plantas al mismo tiempo por motivos de espacios. 4 plantas con lavado de raices, se lograra el objetivo de 50 g por planta ? +se ha perdido parte de la visualizacion del seguimiento por tiempo personal.

🌼 Flowering – Week 2 (Days 36–42) 10/18 (Day 36 – Start of Week 5): Watered with the same nutrient solution as last week (2.5 ml/L CalMag + 1.4 ml/L Coco A + 1.4 ml/L Coco B). Not adding PK yet — I’ll wait until the stretch fully ends before introducing it. Measured heights today: tallest = 122 cm, shortest = 61 cm, average = 84 cm. Did not measure runoff this time. 10/19 (Day 37): Average vertical growth today: +4.66 cm, showing the stretch is slowing down. Watered again with the same solution as yesterday. The canopy remains uneven, with clear height differences between phenotypes — I’ll adjust pot heights soon to improve light distribution. Plants look healthy overall, no visible stress or nutrient issues. 10/20 (Day 38): Watered with water + CalMag + AN Micro (micronutrient maintenance day). Adjusted the height of the shorter pots, and now PPFD across the canopy is much more uniform. Average daily growth was +5.33 cm — the defoliation slowed them down briefly, but they’ve regained momentum. The tallest plant is now 132 cm, and I’ve had to raise the lights to their maximum height — any further stretch could become a problem for space. 10/21 (Day 39): Watered with the same nutrient solution as before, increasing total volume to 1.5 L per plant to achieve about 25% runoff. Performed a massive defoliation — foliage density was too high, and the dehumidifier couldn’t keep up with transpiration. Suspect that the excessive stretch was partially due to insufficient light intensity, since readings were only ~360 PPFD when ideal for this stage is 500–600 PPFD. Raised light intensity to 430 PPFD to gradually correct this. 10/22 (Day 40): Same watering as yesterday (1.5 L, ~25% runoff). Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Plants look strong and are adapting well to the increased light. Tomorrow I’ll introduce PK 13/14 at low dosage to initiate the first phase of bloom boosting. 10/23 (Day 41): Watered with 1.5 L. Introduced 0.3 ml/L PK 13/14 (first light dose) and 0.5 ml/L AN Micro after noticing one plant showing small brown spots between leaf veins (possible early micronutrient deficiency). Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Plants look stable overall, no visible stress from new additives. 10/24 (Day 42 – End of Week 5): Watered again with the same solution as yesterday. Input/Runoff: EC 1000, pH 6.6 Humidity has been difficult to control — RH stays around 60%, which lowers VPD. Planning to increase airflow and raise temperature slightly to improve VPD levels and moisture evacuation. Week 5 Summary 🌸 Stage: End of stretch and transition to full flower development. 📈 Growth: Height stabilized around 130 cm (tallest). Stretch nearly complete. ⚙️ Feeding: Base mix: 2.5 CalMag + 1.4 A/B (EC 1300). Runoff steady at EC 1000 / pH 6.6, indicating perfect nutrient uptake. Introduced PK 13/14 (0.3 ml/L) and AN Micro (0.5 ml/L) for bloom support. 💧 Watering: 1.5 L with 25–30% runoff per plant. No salt buildup detected. 💡 Lighting: PPFD increased from 360 → 430 µmol/m²/s after noticing under-lighting. Canopy adjusted by raising pots; more uniform distribution achieved. ✂️ Defoliation: Heavy leaf removal on Day 39 to control RH and open airflow. 🌡️ Environment: RH stable around 60%, but VPD slightly low (target ~1.2 kPa). Working to improve air exchange and temperature for better balance. 🌿 Overall health: Strong recovery after defoliation, no new deficiencies or stress. Early bud stacking visible. ➡️ Plan for Week 6 – Flowering Week 3 (Days 43–49) 🎯 Objective: Consolidate flowering, strengthen bud sites, and maintain climate stability. Nutrients: Maintain base feed at EC 1300–1400 µS, pH 5.8 ± 0.1. Increase PK 13/14 slightly to 0.4–0.5 ml/L if no stress appears. Keep AN Micro 0.5 ml/L once per week for micronutrient balance. Environment: Target VPD 1.1–1.3 kPa (temp ~26–27 °C, RH 50–55%). Improve dehumidification and circulation — consider stronger exhaust or intake fan cycles. Lighting: Increase PPFD to 500-600 µmol/m²/s. Monitor for any light stress at canopy level (tallest plants close to the lamp). Defoliation: No more heavy pruning — just remove large leaves shading bud sites. Observation: Track bud swelling and trichome development. Watch humidity closely during night cycles to avoid mold risk.

This was a quiet week. The girls were recovering from their topping but were also flipping into flower. They have been getting water every two days and that seems to be an issue so I bought an auto watering drip system to install next week. The orange sherbet is going well. She continues to develop. Slower than the cookies and strawberry banana but better than the purple lemonade. Dimmed to 60% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by! You can find the light on Grow Diaries: https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-150-watts You can find the light on Medic Grow's website: https://medicgrow.com/

Que pasa familia, vamos con la segunda semana de floración de estas Tropicana poison F1 de Sweetseeds. Vamos al lío , las 3 plantas seleccionadas fueron trasplantadas a su maceta definitiva, ya superaron el shock por el trasplante, estas semanas las paremos todas a floración. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. El ciclo de floración 12h de luz, el foco está al 100% de potencia. Las jodidas estiraron demasiado, veremos como acaban, no me gustan tan altas. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Freaky se porte bien pour l’instant, elle n’a pas l’air d’attirer les limaces. Je vais commencer à l’alimenter en thé de compost oxygéné pour la booster un petit peu

Grüßt euch Freunde, Langsam kommen wir ans Ende der 5 Woche! Habe in dieser Woche keinen Bio grow zugeführt und eine Verbesserung festgestellt. Dafür wurde top Max angehoben und Bio Bloom. Fahre im weiteren Verlauf nun wieder nach Düngeschema fort. Viele der Blätter verfärben sich rötlich und die Blattspitzen der sugarleafs sind lila. Hoffe dass, das dann später auch im Produkt sichtbar ist. Sind also noch einige Wochen zu gehen, Bis dahin euch allen eine gute Woche !💚

Lots of popcorn buds because I really did not understand defoliation or lollipopping and was too scared to try. I have since become a much better judge of what leaves to pull and when. This diary was just to create a record of every grow I have done so far. Thanks!

9/25/19 What an insane plant. I am now giving her 3 gallons of feeding every 4 days. When I defoliate the bottom, I think I stressed the plant because one of the top bud’s color changed. I know it’s not light burn because the other bud sites did not do that. Other than that I’ve dropped her feeding to 8ml/gallon from 10ml/gallon. I am seeing some nute burns as well. She’s enjoying the 4x5x8 grow tent. I have 2 x 240W COBs on and the plant is sharing along with 2 x Glueberry OG by Dutch Passion and 2 x White Widow by RQS. I deleted the other diaries because I got too lazy and was too much for me to update them. I really appreciate every one’s support on this plant. Thank you.

It's been a wonderful journey, I'm very happy about this lady's performance, she has produced a high quality harvest, low quantity but I didn't maximice the space as good as I should, but definitely a wonderful genetic to grow, the flowrs are super sticky, full of trichomes and the smell is just the clasic amnesia smell you expect.

This week felt like the run really started cruising into flower mode. The smaller, darker pheno – the one that got transplanted from the 11L into the 35L pot – finally bounced back. Especially after that little defoliation session, she’s been pushing steady growth and stacking some nice biomass. She’s compact, chill, and now showing she’s got some solid drive. The bigger, lighter pheno on the other hand feels like she hit the brakes a bit. Growth slowed down, biomass stacking isn’t as intense, and she looks a little lazier compared to her sister. But that’s kinda intentional – I took off a bit more foliage on her to keep the stretch in check and slow her roll. So, nothing to stress about, just part of the plan. Hope that It works out and she'll start to be a little more on the energetic side of things next week. Funny enough, the darker pheno seems to be catching up and maybe even overtaking the lighter one now. That contrast is rad to see – like two boards riding the same wave but in different styles. Curious how it’ll play out in the next couple of weeks. I also pushed the PPFD to about 1000–1050 depending on the spot in the canopy. Bud sites are soaking it up, and the canopy looks nicely balanced. From here on out, I wanna keep it chill – minimal interference, let the plants ride it out, and bring this run to the finish line. Main focus is to wrap it clean so I can flip the space for the other photoperiod girls waiting in the small tent.
