Wow she over doubled in height this week growing 20cm! But take a look at the video I took. She has 3x stalks!!!!!!!! One stalk has split, then split again! I have not topped/fimmed this at all. No training. Possibly the stress she suffered in her second week has triggered this? Not sure but she looks healthy enough so far! Also just entering flowering I think.

Introduction - Week 09 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 100906.68, Overall a pretty good grow week! Started the week off by increasing the light's intensity. Also raised it up a bit. Most of the week was basic growth checkups and humidifier refilling. Mid week, increased the light's intensity a bit more. Also did a top soil drench of organic fertilizer along with a simple defoliation. Towards the end of the week, decided to give both girls a large bottom watering. Also did a mini defoliation again. Now that both reservoirs are full with about 2 gallons, shouldn't need to water for a while. Next week will be the big 12/12 flip! Steady as she grows Ensign. Engage! 🖖 [START OF WEEK 09] ========================================================== WEEK 09 - Full Veg Wk4 04/17/23 → 04/23/23 This Week's Estimated Goals ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DLI: 39 mol/m2/d PPFD: 600 μmol/m2/s VPD: 0.5-1.0 kPa This Week's Meter Readings & Averages ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DLI: 40.05 mol/m2/d PPFD: 618 μmol/m2/s VPD: 1.04 kPa Soil %: [25.9, 37.3, 32.0, 34.7] ========================================================== Day 01 - Monday - 04/17/23 - Total Days: 063 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages - Temps: 77.8°F [25.4°C] - Humidity: 68.6% - VPD: 1.00 kPa - Soil %: [19, 28, 30, 28] ----------------------------------- - [09:23]: Quick morning checkup! --- Looking great my ladies! --- EB1 is continuing to explode with growth! --- Refilled the humidifier with distilled water and Hydrogen Peroxide (~20mL). - [22:25]: Evening my girls! --- Growing along nicely! --- The top of the canopy is clearly filling in with top sites. --- Refilled the humidifier with distilled water and Hydrogen Peroxide (~20mL). --- Looking at the lower leaves, plan to do another fertilizer feeding soon.

Looking great ladies! --- Top growth is looking very nice! --- Hmm. A bit of yellowing is still developing on the lower leaves. --- Regardless, canopy growth is still spreading out quite nicely! --- With this being the last week of 18/6 veg, these girls are bushing out quite nicely! --- After flipping the light schedule from 18/6 to 12/12, some cannabis plants will double in size. --- Starting to get a bit nervous (well more stoked than nervous) about the growth spurt these ladies may undergo (also known as the 'stretch phase'). - [16:19]: Took PPFD readings. --- EB1 was around 476 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 30.84 mol/m2/d --- EB2 was around 449 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 29.1 mol/m2/d --- Decided to increase the intensity of the grow light. Going for a PPFD goal of 500. --- Will also most likely need to raise it up a bit. - [16:27]: Within the AC Infinity App, --- Adjusted the 'Vegetative [18/6]' Schedule for the grow light. --- Increased the MAX from 3 to 4 --- The FC-6500 is now utilizing around 327.3W from 261.9W (at intensity 4 out of 10) - [16:33]: Raised the grow light up a bit. --- Took new PPFD readings. --- EB1 was around 528 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 34.21 mol/m2/d --- EB2 was around 499 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 32.34 mol/m2/d --- Great! - [16:48]: Took a general light distance reading for EB1. --- She's now about 16.25" from the grow light. --- Plan to do final height and distance readings at the end of the week. --- Okay! Now for the soil! - [16:53]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: --- 20% - [CH01 EB1 - grow bag] --- 28% - [CH02 EB1] --- 30% - [CH03 EB2 - grow bag] --- 28% - [CH04 EB2] --- Soil moisture is drying around EB1. --- EB2 soil seems to be 10% more hydrated. --- Now for the basic meter. - [16:58]: Using the soil moisture probe, took readings for each EarthBox. --- Soil moisture levels for EB1 was at 5.5 out of 10 --- Top soil both looked and felt dry. --- Soil moisture levels for EB2 was at 3 out of 10 --- Top soil looks hydrated but felt dry. --- Fascinating. 🖖 --- A huge contrast in moisture data. --- Based on the basic meter, both girls have drank quite a bit. Yet the Ecowitt sensors have not really changed much at all. - [17:09]: Rotated both EarthBoxes 180 degrees. --- Checked the fill tube for each EarthBox. --- Both fill tubes are now pretty dry! --- With the current soil moisture levels, decided to continue on with the top soil drenching. --- Don't frack this up Ensign! - [17:21]: Filled a pitcher with 5 cups of distilled water. --- Then filled a measuring cup with 2 cups of distilled water. --- Added 1/32tsp + 1/64tsp + Half 1/64tsp of Quillaja Saponaria Extract --- Added 1/16tsp + 1/32tsp + 1/64tsp of: ------ Horticultural Aloe ------ Big 6 Micronutrients [+ Humic Acid] --- Added 1/8tsp + 1/16tsp + 1/32tsp of: ------ Mycrobe Complete ------ Recharge --- Added 1/4tsp + 1/8tsp + 1/16tsp of: ------ Pure Protein Dry [Organic Fish Aminos] --- Added 2mL of Bio-Catalyst Enzyme Elixer --- Added 5.25mL of Yah-Whey --- Mixed the solution and poured everything straight into the pitcher to mix with the 5 cups of distilled water from earlier (now 7 cups). --- Poured 3.5 cups of the mixed solution into a spray bottle. - [17:54]: Rotated the EarthBoxes 90 degrees. EB2 is now facing the front. --- Before watering, going to defoliate a bit. - [17:58]: Using a pair of trimmers, I gently clipped away lower yellowing leaves. --- Removed a few of the larger fan leaves which were covering top sites. --- To help to further promote top growth, also removed more lower nodes. --- Time to top soil drench! --- Also going to top dress a bit of gnarly barley! - [18:27]: Gently removed the rear moisture meter before pealing back the plastic much cover. --- Now for the top dressing. - [18:30]: Sprinkled 1/4cup of Gnarly Barley onto the top soil. --- Tried to stay towards the back. --- Using my fingers, I gently tilled the topdressing into the top soil. --- Also tried to work in all of the trimmings from the defoliation. - [18:42]: Misted the top soil for EB2. --- Made sure to spray the area with the Grow Dots, but did not spray the grow bag. --- Sprayed the whole top soil, but focused more on the back area. --- Placed the mulch cover back along with the rear moisture sensor. - [18:59]: Rotated the EarthBoxes 180 degrees. --- Now for EB1, --- Using a pair of trimmers, I gently clipped away yellowing leaves. --- Also removed the larger fan leaves covering top sites. - [19:20]: Gently removed the rear moisture meter. --- Then pealed back the plastic much cover. - [19:24]: Sprinkled 1/4cup of Gnarly Barley onto the top soil. --- Again, tried to stay towards the back. Also sprinkled a bit around the grow bag. --- Using my fingers, I gently tilled the topdressing into the top soil. --- Also tilled in the trimmings from the defoliation. - [19:45]: Using the rest of the solution (~3.5cups), misted the top soil for EB1. --- Made sure to spray the Grow Dots, but did not spray the grow bag. --- Tried to spray the solution evenly. - [19:47]: Placed the mulch cover back along with the rear moisture sensor. --- Rotated the EarthBoxes back to the default configuration. --- Refilled the humidifier with distilled water and Hydrogen Peroxide (~20mL). - [20:12]: Misted the top growth with a bit of distilled water. --- Really hope I didn't over-water. --- Going to let the water soak in a bit before checking the moisture levels. --- Okay! - [21:31]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: --- 31% - [CH01 EB1 - grow bag] --- 44% - [CH02 EB1] --- 33% - [CH03 EB2 - grow bag] --- 35% - [CH04 EB2] --- As expected, soil moisture overall is higher. --- Will continue to check moisture levels as the soil dries out.

Here is my young Gelato in her 2nd week. She looks in good shape and makes me think that she will grow well. I'm happy, I only have one plant of this strain in my tent.😀 At the end of the week I cut the first lower layer of leaves, I want the plant to devote more energy to growing upwards👆🙏 ----------------------------------------------------------- 💧Watering: 1L on day 8 0.5L on day 11 I use tap water, adjust the ph to around 5.8 and water ------------------------------------------------------------ 🤩Equipment of the week : Light FC3000 Mars hydro. power 80% at 50cm Extractor 6 inch Mars Hydro. power 1/10. ON 24/24h 2 fans to circulate the air inside the tent. Each on for 30 minutes then off for 1 hour. this rhythm repeats itself in a loop Heating mat Romberg 95x95cm. ON 45 minutes. OFF 30minutes. In a loop i am adding anti-midge bird stickers this week ----------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for your visit ! 💪 ----------------------------------------------------------- My Instagram 🌱❤️️ : https://www.instagram.com/hou_stone420/

This week the plant continued to stretch reaching 55 cm. The tent is really feeling small both in height and width, the lamp is almost as high as it can get. I might have had done better with more pruning earlier, now I don't I don't want to stress too much this far into flowering. This week just removed some leaves and some branches without significant flowering from the bottom. Right after switching to a HID light for flowering, the leaves started drooping badly. The plant has mostly recovered from that. Flowers are getting bigger, slowly growing trichomes on the leaves too.

This plant has been a pure pleasure to grow. I took a few bud off this week as I was worried about bud bandits taking her. They are out in force in my neck of the woods. She has really put on some interesting colouring. She smells so damn GOOD!! Dinafem nails dit with these genetics!! Full chop is imminent!! 😎🍿

A little increase nutrients. Now I feed 1 time pH Perfect (Micro, Grow, Bloom) in double amounts, B52, CalMags, Sensizym and bacterias. 2 time Flora(Micro, Grow, Bloom, BigBud )in double amounts, B52, CalMags, Sensizym and bacterias. By the end of the week i ran out of BigBud and Flora Grow. Don't know if need to buy more of it or not. Despite I had lower humidity, it looks like she's still drinking less water. To be honest, it's first time, when i see my plant drink that small at this stage. I defoliated a lot this week, dozens of leaves every day. Although this time, I cut not only big fan leaves, but also small ones in the lower center of a plant. I also cut down some lower buds to lollypop the plant a bit. But since most of the lower buds are still even not developed to the size, when it may be cut down easelly, I think i will continue doing it in the next week. Lightning is also not perfet for the grow. Lamp has enough power to maintain the plant, but it's shape leaves much to be desired, it's too concentrated it the center with very small light at the sides. It allows me understand, that i have mainlained too much, I should've stopped with 4 colas. I was afraid i wouldn't have enough space, but the problem is not with the space, but with lights now. It's funny and weird how the buds are looking now. Some of them are pretty big already, some are just formed. And all of which are located in the top of the plant, they can't even receive equals amount of light even there. Smell is becoming from 'just bud smell' to 'very sweety buds' now. It remind me the smell of Zkittles a lot.

Saturday, 05.03.2022 Girls graduation! Bwoy Shabba, world of girls, In container loads! (Shabba Ranks, 1991) I wish you could hear this song playing as you read this post to get the feeling I am feeling. Culled plant with strong male characteristics (#3). Left with 3 plants showing pistils, #s1, 4 and 5 😁. #2 was the largest and best looking of the plants but 'a soh it goh' 😉. All plants recovering well from recent phytotoxicity. Fed twice in past week with 12 ml/gallon CAB. Plants show no ill effects to Cytokin treatment and seem to like it. Have to move ties daily to accommodate growth. Signs of leafminers on a few leaves. Sunday, 06.03.2022 A little rain fell Saturday afternoon but pots not overly moist. Fed with Recharge at 5 ml/gallon and remainder of Ph'd water. Ph measurement via Ph paper was still hot, 5.0~, so I repeated same method of adding 500 ml tap water to jug and topping up with acidified water, following the principle of adding acid to water and not vice versa 😉.

Day 3 so after mites and a mishap with the wrong detergent. We are back with my next try at growing Sugar Breath, which has to smell better then new puppy breath. As of Saturday Fozzy Bear (we wanted it Fozzie but official paper work says otherwise) joined the family and his new big brother Buddy. He has already grown a few inches since we got him but god is he ever cute, and god bless Buddy for taking his playful shit since
