I am feeding with tps one and CalMag oac one time, then it’s back to regular tap water (well water) that comes at 8.5 pH with 156ppm of tds. The feed was approx a pH of 6.5. More importantly is the consistent soil pH which appears fixed at 6.8 I know it’s lazy! However…. I have noticed doing this to reveal to me that the soil pH is very stubborn and not easily changed by the pH of the water alone. Stuff in the water can definitely have an impact. But still, most feed waters I use don’t change the soil ph. I do make sure the pH is within a healthy range for soil, something between 6 and 7 I figure is ideal. I’ve found if there is enough lime in the mix, and as long as I don’t over feed soluble nutes, then the soil pH appears stable and fixed. With enough lime in the mix, I can ultimately arrest the soil pH at 7. It’s really cool. I thought adding too much lime would give me something potentially alkaline, and maybe it will. But I’ve added lots of lime before and still haven’t gotten past 7 pH. Maybe I didn’t add enough to go further? Nevertheless I’m not interested in going past 7. I haven’t seen any issues with the speed of growth watering with 8.5 tap water, surprisingly. As I’ve said the soil pH would read 6.8 before and immediately after watering with the 8.5 tap. So….. I’m thinking the stability of the soil pH is a positive indication that the microbes are not being subjected to pH shifts, or at least nothing substantial. I mean, at the end of the day when things are looking good, I feel like I must have something right.

Hello. This is the end of week 6 and the beginning of week 7 of flowering. It's been hot here this week. Over 30* c for the last 5 days in the green house. I was busy with my Panty Punch harvest and didn't check them through the day. When I closed up for the night 2 days ago, I found them all wilted from lack of water. But they all have more yellow leaves because of that. They are also pulling nutrients from the big fanleaves getting near the end of flowering. After pollenating the clones (see the short video) I cut down the Panty Punch male so as not to seed anyone else's cannabis plants, But it's the beginning of July and there shouldn't be any cannabis plants that are flowering outside just yet. I forgot to take pictures of the 3 inside plants this week. I think one might have gone hermy on me. I'm seeing a lot of brown pistils on the plants that should be white. I took a quick look but didn't see any male flowers. Will have to look closer later. No sign of problems. Still a month to go before harvest. Things are going good. Ok. Have fun out there. Chuck.

Will harvest tomorrow morning, so this is my last photo dump of it growing. Grow was less stressful than my last and I am hoping it continues to progress that way.

Comecei a semana realizando o treinamento de baixo estresse e uma desfoliação. Nao fiz poda top, não acho que seja adequado para plantas rápidas. VVamos ver como vai ser o resultado . Nao pretendo mais fazer intervenções no crescimento .

Day 15 Today I switched the lights from the Seedling program to the Growth program. I measured around 640 PPFD at the canopy level so a bit high for early veg but I will leave it where it is now and keep an eye out for light stress, and raise the lights if I have to. I also added a second USB fan for increased circulation. USB fans are great when the plants are small and you don't want the stronger winds that the regular clip fan generates. I also started the clip fan but directed it towards the lights to help keep them a bit cooler. I adjusted the extractor fan from 60 secs Off/30 secs On to 30 secs Off/30 secs On in order to remove more hot air. This will have to be tweaked further and I'll monitor my temps to figure out a suitable setting. It becomes a balance between temp and humidity. I really wish I had a system where I could set a target VPD and then the system would automatically adjust temps and humidity to follow that target. Not practical in my small setup though but maybe one day... Temps are always an issue in my setup as I have two powerful lights inside one small tent without AC. I have set the light cycle so that the lights are on during the night but off during the day to help to balance the temp a bit. I'm also considering getting some extension cables and put the LED drivers outside the tent to see if that helps to bring down the temps a bit further. Later in the grow I will use CO2 so that will help a bit against higher temps. Finally, I watered the plants as they were getting a bit dry. The left plant got 1 liter and the right plant 1.5 liters as the sensor reported that that pot was a bit drier. I reckon it has to do with the plant being larger (almost double the size of the other plant!) I should also really get my ass in gear and hook up the Blumat system so I don't need to worry about hand watering. Day 16 Nothing to report really except some additional growth, both vertical and horizontal. Day 17 Watering time again. Gave them 6.2 pH water this time and once again more to the right plant as it drinks more. I guess around 1.3 liters for the left plant and 2 liters for the right one. I tried putting in my small USB humidifier into the tent but I soon realized that it can't share the USB power that the fans are running on so will have to get another USB power cable in there. Didn't expect that small humidifier to use that much power. Oh well, that's a job for another day. Day 18 The girls are thirsty it seems as I had to water again today according to the Blumat sensors (I really, really need to install my Blumat system as soon as possible but should get the last bits that I need in a day or two). I gave them 2.5 liters of water (pH 6.7) and once again a bit more to the right plant. I also was able to squeeze in my tiny humidifier into the tent even though the tomatoes are still in there. Turns out that all I had to do was to switch the USB power adapter from the old Samsung one that I used to a more powerful iPad charger. Now it works just fine to run the fan and the humidifier on the same power. The reason why I'm using a small USB humidifier instead of a proper one is simply due to the lack of space in my small tent. This (very basic) humidifier is the smallest one I could find yet have a decent size tank so I don't need to fill it up all the time. Day 19 The cover crop EXPLODED since yesterday so the first thing I had to do today was to cut that back a bit. I also started brewing some compost tea (AACT). I mixed together worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal, and molasses and will leave it brewing for 24 hours and then feed it to the plants tomorrow. Would have liked to add alfalfa meal as well but haven't been able to find any. I usually put my seed starter warming mat under and taped to the brewing bucket to increase the tea temperature and microbial activity. The plants are doing their thing, a little bit taller and a little bit wider. I will probably top the right plant next week but not sure about the left one as it is smaller so might need another week. Day 20 The compost tea was ready today after 24 hours of brewing. I fed each girl with around 3 liters of tea (pH 6.8) and as I wasn't planning any foliar feeding this time around I kept the tea unfiltered. So that everything that went into making the tea ended up as a top dressing. I guess I don't have to water for a couple of days after this. Not much change is plant size but the leaves are filling out. Day 21 Today was completely uneventful so not much to report except that I probably will top the right plant tomorrow as it is up to 5 nodes.

grows very resilient

With much pride, this lady here, that's Called HB Dunkin'z is the best lady I've grown so far with the Alien system. Pure instinto seeds have done an amazing job with these genetics, shes super sticky, dense and rich in flavour and smell. At first you get this sweet piney lemoney nose tickle on the first whiff that dwells down into this gassy sugar rich and creamy earthy down notes but with a twist of this candy background. Her smoke profile is exactly like that but id say she pops out two dominant flavour profiles and not one! Her smell is the same all around on the nugs but her taste you either get that sweet indulgent piney lemony nose tickle as taste or you get this gassy rich sugary candy twist of a background! Its definitely a pleasure to smoke! She grew perfectly other then a minor mutation that showed buds spots within and on the fan leaves! Was a lovely sight to see! Definitely top her! Definitely do some defoilation, wouldnt say heavy but a decent amount , lst her up she'll love you for it, start and keep light at 150cm, if need during flowering zip tie to top, she will give you lovely growth and feed her on a semi mid to high feed, she enjoys a drink but not on the heavy heavy side. Her info suggested about 9 weeks of flower, unfortunately she exceeded that with about 11/12 weeks, wether it was due to the low feeding during the perm bluez finishing or if she just enjoyed the conditions so she allowed more time or maybe her longer flowering time pheno popped through, who knows 🤷‍♂️ I wouldn't suggest a beginner to grow her, have a few ladies under your belt otherwise you won't get to yield her fruitful fruits properly. I'll definitely be picking up a few of her for future diaries with some other pure instinto seeds to go along with her! If i was you id also pick up some and store em, pop one out everyone so often and let her show you why you got them again! Cannot wait to get the system up and running again with a fresh on to see if we can pull even better off, I reckon we can with ease 🙋‍♂️

Things couldn't be going any better for this grow. So recently I ripped off all the bottom growth, leaving only tops and side branches with lots of exposure. What a difference it's made, buds are starting to really beef up and. I now have some that are a foot long!! Definitely found my winning recipe 🥇🥇

Wie man bei dem Video gut erkennen kann habe ich je Sorte verschiedene Phänotypen. Von links nach rechts die LSSH, mitte die CH und rechts die Amnesia. Wobei bei der Amnesia in der Mitte ein deutliche Sativa ist. Bei den beiden anderen Sorten ist nur ein Höhen unterschied bei einigen zu sehen der aber nur einige cm ausmacht. Ansonsten denke ich mal das ich in 6 bis 7 Wochen ernten kann.

Day 43: Watered each plant with 1L with nuts 1589 ppm, 3380 us/cm, 3.3 EC (purple punch and wedding cheesecake) 1563 ppm 3325 us/cm 3.3 EC (strawberry banana) 1476 ppm 3180 us/cm 3.1 EC (gorilla cookies) I have 3 different feedings for the 10 plants They look healthy Day 45: Watered each plant with 1L with nuts 1563 ppm, 3325 us/cm, 3.3 EC (purple punch, strawberry banana, wedding Cheesecake) 1286 ppm, 2765 us/cm, 2.7 EC (gorilla cookies) 2 different feedings for the 10 plants Day 47: Watered each plant with 1L with nuts 1584 ppm, 3380 us/cm, 3.3 EC (purple punch, strawberry banana, wedding Cheesecake) 1481 ppm, 3180 us/cm, 3.1 EC (gorilla cookies) 2 different feedings for the 10 plants

Last week in veg!!!!! Can’t believe 7 weeks came that fast! I’m training the HELL out of her, getting her nice and strong. Trimmed some leaves off today and trained even more. The main stem is about a quarter of an inch thick. She’s getting very strong! Can’t wait to flip into flower. Haven’t had any problems knock on wood.

Weather for ride home its getting pretty windy out outside its already blowing us on road and trees are starting to bend some but not bad hoping it dont get to bad.

Wow she's grown loads this week. 22cm vertical growth. Flowering going full steam ahead!! 😎 💪
