Las plantas se ven bien, hice una pequeña defoliacion para sacar las hojas grandes que hacian sombra directamente sobre otras ramas. Ademas quite algunas de abajo que me complicaban un poco a la hora de regar.

Week 2 7/26- All the girl's are doing great. I had to use some horticulture wire to prop up a couple of the girls that got a little 'top heavy'. Giving 12oz water ph'd to 6.3-6.5 as needed 2 hours after 'lights on' around each plant, and every other day in the saucers (1/4g/ea) to allow the medium to wick it up and stay moist. Temp's running 72-81deg with an average RH of 55-60%. I'd like to have the RH a bit higher but the girl's seem to be doing fine at the present. 😎Ordered another HLG 650R with the supplemental UV Bar to replace the two SunSystems 315 CMH's....should be a game changer! 💪 Also have an AC Infinity 6" exhaust system w/controller on the way to replace the Hurricane 400cfm fan I'm currently running along with another TerraBloom 6'x24" carbon filter as my current filter is losing efficiency. 7/27- Watered today ph'd to 6.4 with 2 tbsp/gallon unsulfured molasses added. I split 2 1/2g between the eight girls by pouring 12oz around each plant and then dividing the rest in their saucers to be wicked up. Temp's, RH and CO2 all on point! 7/28- Light watering today with straight non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5. Growth is looking great across the board. Even the late starters, Seedsman Zkittles #1 & #2, are coming along nicely! All the ladies are averaging in height between 2 1/2' - 3 1/2" and should be getting ready to explode as their root systems become more established and are able to start taking in more nutrients. Fans are running 24/7 to strengthen the stalks....they're gonna need it to support the buds these ladies will be sporting in a couple months! 7-29- Watered all through the bottom today with straight .5g non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.3. Temp's, RH, CO2 and VPD all on point. Unhooked carbon filter from hose as it's losing efficiency restricting exhaust air flow. Girl's all growing STRONG especially the #1 Seedsman Gelato OG in Fox Farm/Nature's Living Soil mix and the FastBuds Purple Lemonade #2 also in the Fox Farms/Nature's Living Soil mix with the Seedsman Gelato OG #2 in SOHUM soil is getting close. I appears the two girl's in SOHUM soil are not quite as tall as the others but are leafing out well and are stocky with close node spacing.....hmmm? 7/30- Lift checked all the pots and gave 2 1/2g straight non-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.4 with 2 tbsp of unsulfured molasses added. I split the 2 1/2g evenly between all eight giving 20oz through the top and the remainder in the pans to be wicked up. I turned up the HLG 650R to 400w at the wall and kept the height the same. My AC Infinity Cloudline T6 exhaust and new Terrabloom 6x24" carbon filter came today, as did the UV bar from HLG for the HLG 650R that'll be here on the 3rd.....CAN'T WAIT!!! All the girl's are really doing well and starting to begin 'gettin it on'! All are healthy and running between 3-4" tall. Side note: While installing the new exhaust fan setup on of my pooches sneaked in the room and munched off a half of a shade leaf on the #1 Purple Lemonade....she's definitely got good taste!😆 In the process of installing the AC Infinity fan I relocated it and the filter to the left side of the tent and re-routed the cold air intake hoses so that both enter the tent at the bottom and are positioned at either side of the tent. I setup the AC Infinity which is a breeze, set all my high/low limits and alarms and let here run! Temperatures now are running 72-81 deg. and RH is remaining stable @ 55%, CO2@800ppm. All in all a good day!😎👍 7/31- Water looks good on all the girls. I'll just top water lightly today with straight de-chlorinated water ph'd to 6.5. The AC Infinity is really a 'game changer' as temp's are now staying in a stable range without having to adjust the settings on my Ideal Air 14k BTU AC unit...niceee! All my ladies are finishing up their second week like champs and I'm looking forward to the next few weeks as when their root systems reach the 'super-soil' they are going to hopefully have some explosive growth. I'll also be evaluating all of them in the coming week to determine candidates for topping and LST to begin. 8/1- The second HLG 650R came today! I tidied up the tent before installing the 650R: moved EXHALE CO2 bags-one on each side, vacuumed, took care of any loose hanger cords and re-positioned the three thermometers/hygrometers. I installed the second HLG 650R w/UV bar in the tent and set both lights to 400w @ the wall and have both boards centered, level and hung @ 36" from the soil. These lights are AWESOME! I checked temp's on the boards & drivers after they were running for 4 hours: 98deg on the drivers and 94deg on the board...pretty freakin sweeet! Gave the girl's a day off from water as they all looked GTG and are all getting ready to really turn on! I plan on hitting them early tomorrow morning with a good watering. Temp's-RH-VPD all on point for this week. I've been continuing to run the humidifier set @ 60% RH and I'm going so far as to ph the water going into it to see if it makes a difference as my well water runs 7.8ph @225ppm dissolved solids and I hypothesized that as the plants were absorbing the moisture from the air it might be beneficial to have that moisture at the correct ph.....we'll see I guess!

Day 78. Just runs fine. Day 42 for Control garden. Biggest Incredible Bulk is amazing plant, very strong, should be really nice to harvest, 3 weeks veg is my shortest ever.... Thinking to leave them untouched, hope they will mature quicker, even without direct light, they grow amazing.. For now just heavy feed, reached 1100, normally 1200 is my max. Day 79. Girls are fine, plain water today. Thinking to leave Control Garden with all leaves, but despite them growing not under direct light they are 70+ cm height. Now they cause shadow and block air move... In doubts a bit... Day 83. Control garden is a lot behind and still stretching , took 12 leaves in total from 3 plants. Now second canopy will have more light, should really chop bottom branches and leaves, but maybe will do it on second defoliation round... All girls getting heavy feed 1250 ppm. Gorillas still too hungry, Cookies overfed as always... Hard grow for lazy hard stoner :)))

Decided that this week ive probably went a bit big on the 3 gal pots after reviewing other grows (Whoops, not the worst problem to have) so I invested in another tent to split the girls up. Im hoping this will improve the air flow later in the grow, well until I decided that it looked a bit sparse and started some 1 gal ladies away. Anyway im a massive idiot and burned the GG4, ive learnt the lesson of monkey see doesnt mean monkey should do. Anyway we'll get into that. Sun 5/6 Got myself drip trays for all the pots, which will be help keep the tents a bit tidier when the watering intensifies. Also picked up a soil moisture/pH meter, from further reading soil pH is going to be important (Foreshadowing here.....) Both GG4/Explorer watered today (Not measured, stupid) as meter suggested soil moisture was low. Fed around where I suspect root mass will be and moistened edges of pots. Ariel/Cindy not fed today as both soil surfaces were moist. Im concerened about little Ariel, but im holding out for here. GG4 = 6CM // Explorer = 3.75CM // Ariel = 1CM // Cindy = 1.5CM Mon 6/6 AM Cindy/Ariel surface sprayed as was dry. GG4/Explorer left untouched as they're moist. PM All plants sprayed until surface moist, warm day today and I struggle keeping the humidity high within the tents so the surface seems to dry rapidly on the seedlings. New tent should arrive tomorrow! Tues 7/6 AM Tent arrived and set up with GG4/Explorer Transfered. This tent has a MarsHydro 100W in. GG4/Explorer fed with 400ML water + 0.15ML Bio-Grow, having reviewed many other auto grows it seems that they're giving growth nutes early doors. I must be doing something wrong here so planning to slowly introduce Bio-Grow. Ariel/Cindy left alone as theyre looking ok. Well as ok as Ariel can look :S PM GG4 leaves are showing slight yellowing (That foreshadowing we we're on about), shit. Wonder if it could be light burn from the new light? Ive upped the light distance and will monitor. Wed 8/6 GG4 further development of yellowing with some browning now showing. Surely if it was light stress I would have seen a small improvement, but perhaps im being too hasty. Planning on waiting another day and seeing where we see any improvement. No feed for GG4/Explorer Spray feed for Cindy/Ariel Thurs 9/6 GG4/Explorer fed 150ML of just water as both are looking dry and feeling light to lift. Still no improvement on yellowing/browning of leaves however new growth is progressing so im not too concerned? Will need to ask wiser heads for advice relating to this. Further research is leading me to think ive nute burned it. MY water pH is coming out around 7.1 as well which wont be helping. pH down ordered as im sure ill need it anyway. Ariel seems to be recovering slightly now all be it pale on new growth, will monitor this little one further and see what happens. More seeds ordered so if shes not going to grow big I might slot her in a 1 gal and stick something different in the 3 gal. Thoughts? Fri 10/6 GG4 well and truely upset with me however only 2 leaves showing significant issues, however this is starting to spread. Posted a question and answers are reflecting that I have A) Too high pH water B) Have fed nutes far too early. Live and learn. Advice seems to show that around 6.2 will be a good range to shoot for. pH down didnt arrive today so will hold fire on any further feedings which works nice as all are moist enough. Have LST'd the GG4. Sat 11/6 Officially 2 weeks today. Whilst im disappointed in myself with the GG4 I suppose its normal to make mistake in something new so trying to not be too hard on myself. Ive got pH down and have fed both GG4(350ml)/Explorer(150) respectively with 6.2pH water. Hopefully this will be the start of the turn around a learning moment within a new hobby. I really appreciate the kind words from those that have already posted and of course any further advice would be massively appreciated. Week Recap - pH your damn water, idiot. - Monkey see, monkey shouldn't always do - Need to take more pictures for this diary.

New beginning-in a suitcase :) this is my 4th growth in a suitcase :) Sweet Seeds - Cream Caramel auto:) I think it will be an interesting growth, I don't know yet if I will try to train it, or if I will have to freeze the top of the plant at the base:) I will decide everything as I go ;) , 1 day after germination it was transplanted into its final pot, because I wanted to plant it a little deeper, so that there would be more space in the future:) good luck to everyone.

Added yellow sticky fly traps to all cubes as a preventative measure to avoid infestation of fungus gnats. So far none have been spotted. Defoliated and did a little more LST to all the plants to open up the center and give more light to lower shoots. Blue Dream 3 and Chemdawg 3 started showing some discoloration on the leaves (yellowing around the veins) and also the leaf tips curling down. Did some research and came up with this... Possible diagnosis: - Yellowing around leaf veins could be a sign of Magnesium or Iron deficiency - Leaf tip curling down could be a sign of Nitrogen Toxicity. - Both could be caused by improper ph balance in water Possible solutions: - Applied Botanicare CalMag+ as a foliar feed and added some to the reservoir. CalMag+ contains Calcium, Magnesium and Iron. - Diluted nutrients in reservoir to lower amount of nitrogen being fed to plants. Was feeding them at 1300ppm, lowered it to 1050ppm - Tested runoff and saw it was coming out at 5.4pH so I increased the pH in the reservoir to 6.0. Now the runnoff is testing at 5.7pH, meaning that my rootzone is in the optimal range of 5.5-5.8 Well wait and see how the plants react to these slight tweaks. Hopefully we start to see a nice healthy even green again.

Finished on day 87, was fully ready. Buds displayed a rich dark green and purple colours at the end. Didn't need much feeding or nutrients, although if I had stayed ontop of it more I have no doubt I'd have yeilded more. Great lil strain to grow.

This week, my Titans are sleeping in a cooler dark room until harvest. So for your viewing pleasure, I've loaded some videos made of the Titans during there time with me. I'm wondering what to serve at my Queens Tea Party... I made some butterscotch pistachio bars and modified the recipe for less sugar. 😋 We experimented with topping the bars with black cherry spread, orange marmalade and a mango jelly. All are very tasty as the bit of sour/tart enhances the butterscotch sweet. A few solar eclipse pics.

July 26th : Nothing tonight was gonna do a video but well we realized we had to prepare for something. July 27th : The Lemongrass got the chop. Now Only the Early Girl OG, and the Notorious T.H.C. Remain. Lots of wet hand trimming.. Gonna try something with the trimmings and larf. July 28th : Hooked up the washer got the bags and buckets set.. Turned my small amount of larf and trim into a small amount of bubble hash. I'm just glad the first try was a success. Now i'm prepared for the big run!!😁 July 29th : Welp Early Girl O.G. Hybrid got the cut. Leaving only you guessed it.. The Notorious T.H.C. to finish in the tent. More pics of the girls inside the tent tomorrow.. Hoping all the room helps them really fill out.. 💪 July 30th : Letting the Notorious Finish up! July 31st : Just about there..... So stinky in the tent now.. yum... Aug 1st : Last pictures of the tent this run.. Was a super fun amazing journey that I can't wait to get started all over again! New 5x5 tent, new light.. Boy are we going to have fun!!! 🙌 Will post harvest info soon. Unfortunately found out today that my scale isn't working so we will be ordering another. Hopefully it comes soon. This means I won't be able to measure the wet weight. But i'll for sure get the dry numbers.. Aug 22nd : Finalizing the Diary. Lemongrass harvest weights. Wet : Scale was broke (n/a). Dry and Cured : (196 g. or 6.9 oz from the two plants) p.s. these were done first and we may have broken into the jars quite a bit 😁 Early Girl O.G. harvest weights. Wet : Scale was broke (n/a). Dry and Cured : (125 g. Or 4.4 oz from two plants)

Hola con esta semana ya quedamos al dia con el seguimiento ya que estaba atrasado en el tiempo. Se nota una producción de resina notable en esta genética que nos ha gustado mucho por su olor y estructura de las plantas . hemos creado un video por cada una de las 14 plantas del seguimiento, hay varias muy llamativas que están "pre-seleccionadas" para mantener a futuro, el olor que se llega a sentir es muy florar y dulce, si tienen alguna pregunta no duden en preguntar saludos. Hello with this week we are already up to date with the follow-up since I was late in time. There is a remarkable resin production in this genetics that we liked a lot for its smell and structure of plants. We have created a video for each of the 14 floors of the follow-up, there are several very striking that are "pre-selected" to keep in the future, the smell you get to feel is very flowery and sweet, if you have any questions do not hesitate to Ask greetings.

March 2, 2021 (Week 8, Day 57, Flower 8): First day of week 8! Pots were light today so watered with 4l per plant with 3ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 2ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 1ml/l Big Bud + 1ml/l Cal-Mag Plus at 6.0 pH. Runoff sitting at 6.4 pH. Removed all remaining LST ties from Unknown 1. Lots of healthy growth. The stretch continues. Averaging 50% rH and 70℉. March 3, 2021 (Week 8, Day 58, Flower 9): Another inch and a half of growth in the last 24hrs. Unknown 1 is leading the pack at 17" followed closely by Gelato 1 at 16.5". The runt is still Unknown 2 at 15.75". It's seriously crazy how fast these are growing now. Plants are looking amazing overall. Soil is still wet from yesterday. I'm not sure what one, but one of these plants is starting to smell like straight gasoline and I haven't even seen any buds yet. Averaging 50% rH and 72℉. March 4, 2021 (Week 8, Day 59, Flower 10): More stretch overnight. Unknown 2 is trying to catch up to the others and grew about an inch and a half. Bud sites are looking great. I will definitely have to defoliate the lower fan leaves here eventually. Thinking about experimenting with two defoliation during flower. One at day 21 and another at day 42. Not sure if I can wait that long as there's already giant fan leaves getting relatively little light at the bottom of the canopy. We'll play it by ear. Averaging 50% rH and 72℉. 👽 March 5, 2021 (Week 8, Day 60, Flower 11): Soil is dry and pots are still a little heavy. Will most likely water tomorrow. Plants tacked on a bunch more growth. They're growing healthy and steadily. Averaging 50% rH and 72℉. Nothing else for today. March 6, 2021 (Week 8, Day 61, Flower 12): Pots are light and leaves are slightly droopy - today is watering day. Watered with 4l per plant with 3ml/l pH Perfect Bloom + 2ml/l pH Perfect Grow + 2ml/l Sweet Raw + 1ml/l Big Bud + 1ml/l Cal-Mag Plus at 6.0 pH. Runoff sitting at 6.2 pH. Vertical growth is looking fantastic. Gelato 1 is the first one out of the gate with bud formation. Pistils are starting to shoot out the top of the growth sites. Will be interesting to see how they develop over the next couple of days! Averaging 50% rH and 72℉. Happy Saturday! 😺 March 7, 2021 (Week 8, Day 62, Flower 13): Everything looks great. Plants perked way back up after the watering yesterday. More stretch. More bud development. Just loving how everything is coming together so far. Averaging 50% rH and 71℉. March 8, 2021 (Week 8, Day 63, Flower 14): Amazing what 24-hours can do. Unknown 2 is really kicking into high-gear starting to develop some dense looking buds and is smelling very, very sweet. Pistils are starting to shoot out everywhere, but not a crazy amount of stretch. Unknown 1 continues to stretch like crazy with minimal bud development so far - but the plant has started shooting pistils out everywhere. Gelato 1 is a mix of both stretching and bud development so far and is looking fantastic. Gelato 1 and Unknown 2 are so leafy I've had to tuck some leaves to expose the bud sites to light and air. I will do my first round of fan-leaf defoliation on flower day 21, but until then I'll continue tucking leaves. I tilled the top half-inch of soil in each plant. Averaging 50% rH and 71℉. I haven't filled my humidifier in days. My grow room is starting to smell amazing - it's hard to zip up the tent and walk away. This is so much fun so far. 😻 On to week 9!

Switching the nutes to the final stage of nutrients starting 4 days feom now. This will allow 2 weeks of the product, plus a week of straight water and flush, then a 2-3day dry cycle. The Plant Prod MJ Finisher (4-31-37). Ill be running it beginning the weekend and will run them for 2 weeks
