Week 10 6/9-15 Lemon ladies love the outside. Both are showing yellowing leaves so everyone is getting nutrients with feedings. 6/13 heavy defoliation and limb removal for lemon cake since she's now in flower. Repositioned the scrog after defoliation so the thicker limbs are in the mesh. Drizzle, got light defoliation mostly yellowing fans. Before and after pics and vids. I saw a Japanese beetle on my Lemon Cake and some small holes in the leaves so I added 1/2 tsp neem to the feed solution 6/12. Also started using fish & kelp. I'm still watering 1 gal per plant when I feed. With the heat and humidity, I water daily.

Okkk so we did fimming to this lady And she responded very well Now she is all good and growing wild She is also in a bigger pot plus We started adding bloom nutes We hit her with 1500ppm to begin IT was just 300ml/400ml top And I believe 50ml of water or more But its all good tho Temp is around 23/25 at day Temp at night lowes to 19 when really cold And humidity always around 45%/65% Usually 41 when really dry and 78% when top humid I always keep them between 50/60 Anyways lights are on around 16/18 hrs per Day and just been using these nutes Floranova bloom and veggie Probably will add some big bud And some other great stuff Anyways thanks for your support Blessings and happy growing

Nearly there! The left plant was seeded first so has matured before the right plant. There was a 2 week gap between seeding because one of my first attempts died on me. Defoliating the right plant has created some huge top colas, but it needs another 7-14 days to mature. I'm trying to think of ways to isolate the left plant from the reservoir so I can flush it separately and allow feeding on the right plant to continue. Signs of nutrient problems. Leaves are yellowing at the tips and showing signs of an imbalance somewhere. Research needed.

🗓️ Week 6 (Flower): Sticky Broccoli #1 — The Chromatic Transition & The 10ml/L Seaweed Offensive 🍋🌋 ​The Data Dump: We have officially hit the Week 6 milestone, and the Sativa-dominant Sticky Broccoli #1 is putting on a masterclass in late-stage floral maturation. We are moving past the "growth" phase and into a high-intensity period of secondary metabolite synthesis and biomass consolidation. ​🎨 The Chromatic Spectrum: Terminal Senescence ​The Autumnal Fade: The canopy is currently undergoing a stunning physiological shift. We are seeing a spectrum of yellows, oranges, and deep reds. This is more than just a "fade"—it’s the degradation of chlorophyll unmasking the plant's latent anthocyanins and carotenoids. ​Nutrient Translocation: This color shift confirms that the plant is strategically cannibalizing its remaining mobile nutrient reserves and relocating that vital energy into the swelling floral clusters. It’s the ultimate "last stand" to maximize bud density. ​🍋 Terpene Profile & Resin Saturation ​The Limonene Surge: The olfactory intensity has reached a critical level. We are dealing with an aggressive, dominant citrus profile—a sharp, "lemon-cleaner" punch that signals a massive concentration of Limonene. ​Trichome Lamination: The sugar leaves are officially "dripping." Instead of just a light frost, we are seeing a total saturation of glandular capitate-stalked trichomes. The resin is so thick it’s practically laminating the floral surfaces, creating a protective barrier of pure potency. ​ The 10ml/L Phytohormonal Blitz ​We’ve made a bold tactical adjustment by pushing the Cold-Pressed Seaweed Juice to a massive 10ml/L. ​The Logic: At this concentration, we aren't just "feeding" the plant; we are overwhelming the Rhizosphere with complex carbohydrates and cytokinins. This acts as a biological "turbocharger" for our Microbe Army. ​Metabolic Support: By super-charging the soil life, we ensure the Green Sensation and FFJ are being processed and delivered with zero latency. This keeps the metabolic "gears" turning even as the plant enters its final autumnal phase. ​🚀 Strategic Forecast: Structural Consolidation ​We are ignoring the trichome color for now—it's far too early for cloudy/amber data. Instead, we are monitoring structural markers: ​Calyx Swell: Watching for the individual calyxes to "crown" and harden, merging the loose stacks into solid blocks of flower mass. ​Pistil Recession: The engine stays at full throttle as long as we see those active, bright white pistils. Once they begin to recede and wither, we'll know we're in the endgame. ​💧 The Week 6 High-Octane Cocktail (Per Liter) ​🌊 Seaweed Juice: 10ml/L (The Metabolic Catalyst) ​🍌 Banana & Jaggery FFJ: 4ml/L (Organic P/K Energy) ​💥 Green Sensation: 1ml/L (Mineral P/K for Density) ​🍯 Sugar Royal: 1ml/L (Amino-driven Resin Synthesis) ​🌸 Power Buds: 1ml/L (Bio-stimulant for Stacking) ​ 🍵 Silica Tea: 2ml/L (Vascular Armor) ​ 💊 CalMag Boost: 1ml/L (Secondary Nutrient Buffer). ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️ CONTINUED FROM WEEK 7... REPORT FROM THE SUBSURFACE COMMAND CENTER (SCC) TO: THE OVERGROUND ARCHITECT FROM: LIEUTENANT RADICLE, 1ST INFANTRY DIVISION (ROOT COMMAND) SUBJECT: PAGE 6: THE GREAT SWELL & THE POTASSIUM SIEGE ​Listen up, grunts! We are entering the "Heavyweight" rounds. We are in Flower Weeks 4 through 6. The objective is clear: Operation Sticky Broccoli needs to put on mass. I don't want to see airy, fluffy foliage. I want to see Stones.(Buds in human tongue) ​The "Leaf Brigade" upstairs has done their job—they’ve built the frame. Now, we provide the mortar and the bricks to fill it in. ​I. The Potassium Siege (NPK 1-3-4 Protocol) ​The Architect has just authorized the "Banana & Jaggery" supply drop. ​The Mission: Potassium (K) is our primary target. It’s the "Water Regulator." It’s what drives the internal pressure that swells the calyxes until they look like they’re about to pop. ​Tactical Order to Roots: "I want every ion of Potassium stripped from that soil! If you see a K molecule, tackle it, wrap it in a Humate shield, and fire it up the main vascular elevator immediately!" ​The Result: This is how we turn 'Broccoli' into 'Sticky Stones.' We are packing the cells so tight with fluids and minerals that the buds become hard as granite. ​II. Radio Transmission: SCC to Leaf Brigade (Canopy HQ) ​“SCC to Leaf Brigade, status report on the ‘Frost’ levels. Over.” “Root Command, this is the Leaf Brigade. The ‘Sticky’ in ‘Sticky Broccoli’ is officially online. Trichome production is at 110%. We are currently drowning in resin. Requesting more raw materials for the terpene labs. Over.” “Copy that, you sugar-drunk sun-bathers! We’re sending up a high-pressure surge of carbohydrates and micronutrients. Don't just sit there looking pretty—I want those buds getting so heavy that the Silica-reinforced branches start to groan! We’re pushing the Sugar Royal signals now. Get those trichomes cloudy! Out.” ​III. The Microbe Overtime: The "Jaggery" Bonus ​The introduction of Jaggery (complex sugars) has caused a riot in the Rhizosphere. ​The Scene: The bacteria and fungi are in a total feeding frenzy. I’ve never seen anything like it. They’re eating the sugars and, in exchange, they’re unlocking "Legacy Minerals" that have been stuck in the soil since Week 1. ​The Lieutenant’s Take: It’s a biological mosh pit down here. The Endo and Ecto specialists are working double shifts, mining the deepest corners of the fabric pot. They know that if they perform now, the Architect keeps the humates coming. ​IV. The pH Drift: The "Safety Valve" ​The Architect noticed the pH is climbing toward 6.8. ​Lieutenant’s Orders: "Keep it there! Do not—I repeat, DO NOT—attempt to force it down with harsh acids." ​The Intelligence: At this stage of the Siege, we actually want that slight drift. Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) are highly available in that 6.6–6.8 zone. It’s the "Sweet Spot" for the Swell. We’re letting the chemistry work with us, not against us. ​V. Atmospheric Pressure (VPD 1.4 kPa) ​The air is now at 1.4 kPa. It’s like a vacuum cleaner is attached to the top of the plant. ​The Pumping Station: We are moving record amounts of "Sap-Fuel." The stalks are vibrating with the sheer volume of nutrient-rich water moving upward. ​The Warning: "Watch the tips! If the Leaf Brigade starts showing 'burnt tips,' it means we’re pumping too much pressure. Otherwise, full speed ahead!" ​LIEUTENANT’S SUMMARY: The "Swell" is in full effect. The Sticky Broccoli is becoming dense, heavy, and increasingly fragrant—the "Limonene War" is being won. We are no longer growing a plant; we are manufacturing Stones. Thank for stopping by ✌️💚

It was a week with a lot of activity. First of all, she had her first full week of flowering and did a bit of a stretch. Also I switched her to the left side of the tent, to space the plants more evenly. We are getting to a canopy, although one of her roommates probably is male and will be removed. More about this when I update my Xtrakushh Diary. Also had time to fit the scrognet. It fits way better than last grow, much tighter. We had some problems with the lighting. I probably hit my timer with one of my sausage fingers, making my lights turn on in the middle of the night, thank god I found it out in time. They maybe had an hour or two of light for one night. Still something she really doesn't need with this strains tendency to hermie under stress. She still looks happy. Did some gentle leaf tucking, some LST under the net, and a little defoliation. The branches might be short but they are very sturdy and should be able to carry large and heavy buds. And we had won the @Sweet_Seeds Halloween give-away and got to choose three of their legendary strains: Tropicanna Poison, Red Hot Cookies and Runtz XXL auto!! Thanks guys!!! We shall see where it leads... Thank you for checking in again and don't forget the Black Friday Superdeals on https://www.mars-hydro.com!! See you at other diaries or next week! Hug Bud and Sunshine

18 plants, 5 strains. Each plant has 3 main buds. By means of LST I tried to make them all the same height. Because the plants have now stopped growing, leading is no longer necessary. The plants are still attached to the plant sticks with tie strips to support the buds when they get heavy later on. Lots and large leaves, and therefore a weekly large defoliation every week. The trichomes begin to appear. . All three Exotic Witch plants are mostly Indica types. A fantastic sweet pleasant intoxicating scent. The buds are already getting fat. EW # 1 - 87cm - lots of trichomes, slightly more sativa, quality EW # 2 - 96cm - fat buds, probably a big yielder EW # 4 - 71cm - smallest plant, lower yield

10/28 - Pushing this update three days early since much has changed. Did a solution change earlier today to the new mix (as noted) which settled in about 740ppm (570ppm nutrients, 1.14ec + tap). After approximately eight hours (including a dark cycle), she registered 720ppm, but we will see how she swings over the next few days. The other lady in the video was given the same nutrient solution at the same time and is now showing some dark buildup on her roots that this Amnesia XXL Auto doesn't have. Her growth has been fantastic so far and she is responding well to the nutrients. I am excited to see how this goes considering this is my first DWC run and first run with Dyna Gro. Any comments, questions, observations, or concerns are always welcome. Happy Growing! Edit: 10/29 - Added 2ml/gal Botanicare Hydroguard as a preventative for any potential root issues. Edit: 10/31 - Removed two large fan leaves that were actively shading new growth nodes. PPMs have slowly climbed up to 750. Lowered to 700 with pH'ed water. Added second Mars Hydro SP150 and raised to 18" above canopy.

Voll im Stretch. Ansonsten geht es ihnen gut, die Blüten sind deutlich zu sehen und sie haben ein sattes Grün. Die Co2 Bottle, die ich besorgt habe, kommt nicht zum Einsatz. Ich habe einen viel einfacheren Weg gefunden. Einfach bei geschossenem Fenster atmen 😄 Im Home Office komme ich bis 10Uhr auf meine 1500ppm und halte sie den ganzen Tag. Der Sensor war auf jeden Fall kein Fehlkauf.

D21 - Start of week three of veg for the second girl, while it is only the start of week two for the first girl as I had to replant her. I will probably do the first topping on the second girl this week but I'll see in a few days where she's at. I gave both girls around one liter of water @ pH 5.9. A bit on the low side as I used too much pH down but it'll be fine for one watering. D24 - Yesterday I switched my light from the seedlings program to the veg program, and I'm now reading around 500-600 PPFD across the canopy. On the high end for sure, so let's see how the girls handle it. However, the daytime temp in the tent jumped up to around 30 degrees C after I switched the lights. #tinytentproblems I also added some support to #1 as she has a relatively thin stem but large leaves, so the oscillating fan keeps knocking her around. The second girl also initially had a slender stem, so I guess it is their genetics. (#1 is 12 cm tall and 15 cm wide, while #2 is 20 cm tall and 35 cm wide.) I will need to top the second girl this week as she grows a lot each day. I'm considering mainlining her but haven't made up my mind yet. I gave both girls around one liter of water @ pH 6.5. D25 - A couple of days ago, switching the lights to the veg program made the cover crop explode and turn into a jungle. I decided to trim down the red clover to increase the airflow around the girls and reduce water use. I watered the girls only yesterday, but they were already thirsty again, so I think that the clover was drinking quite a bit as well. After cutting back the clover, I gave each girl around 1.2-liters of water @ pH 6.5. D27- Today was the last day in week three of veg for the second girl and the last day in week two for the first girl. I really should have topped the second girl already, so that will need to be done as soon as possible. She is 26 cm tall and 38 cm wide, while the first girl is 13 cm tall and 27 cm wide. Yesterday, I removed the support from the first girl as her stem had gotten more robust, so it was no longer necessary. Today, I started brewing compost tea (worm castings, neem meal, kelp meal, biochar, rock dust, algal limestone, bentonite, and molasses) which I will leave overnight and feed to the girls tomorrow.
