they all seem pretty dang Happy... Thank goodness :) All they are eating on is The Amazing Michigan Water only Soil.. 6.3 ph Then every other feeding I give them Planet Earth Tea Blend.. I did do the Flip with My 8 of my Clones.. They are all between 12 & 15 inches Tall. I only have about 3 feet of Space between the Lights and The Ladies. So its all Trial in Error... Thank Goodness it has been all Trial so far.. Flower room is Holding at 79.3 F & 52% Rh And 70.5 F 47 % RH During lights out. I need to find out what I am working with these Clones. I have 5 different Strains.. #1 1-Blue Alien.... #2. 2-Gorilla Glues#4's #3- 2 Tangerine Dream... #4. 6- Ghost OG Kush... #5 1 - Sun Set Sherbert..... Then I am going to Stay with Gorilla Glue and Green Crack since I have over 40 Seeds.. I prefer the 1 st Generation way better then Clones.. Much Easier to train them from seed...

Mild defoliation throughout this week. Flush imminent so will leave the remaining fans as nute banks. Next run with these genetics I'll be running a monstercropped clone under this scrog and will go heavier with the defoliation earlier on. I was advised this on here this grow and did a bit but have learned I need more! Forever learning. Looks like it's gonna be an epic harvest. These girls smell absolutely dank. Testament to the quality of these Madame Grow Fertilisers. Harvest just get better every time! Also big shout out to my bro at NatureDelight.co.uk providing some awesome organics to add into the grow schedule. Used The Active Sugar Boost all through flower at 3ml per litre this run and I think the results speak for themselves. I cannot implore you guys enough to go check this stuff out. It's unique and you wont find better customer service. Lots of vids and content this week as we all love bud shots <3

3/22: I’m really just loving her structure she’s perfect. Can’t wait till I get my Optic 4 XL’s this upcoming week and see what that does to her, I’m starting to see the 1st hairs since flipping....it sucks ordering something and then have to wait a month and a 1/2 For something because it’s extremely back ordered. 3/25: As I keep saying I’m really digging her structure I’m not gonna be really doing much with her until harvest she’s a beast she’s the biggest medicine plant I’ve grown thus far. I finally got the notification of my Optic 4XLs being shipped so now I can get the real growing on and get rid of this cheap Chinese blurple.

The plant was easy to grow overall .. it grew fast and a little on the tall side which had me nervous but I was able to raise the lights up just enough to finish, so it all worked out in the end. buds came out hard and frosty no complaints . This was a freebie seed too! didn’t expect it to come out as fire as it did man was i wrong. Straight fire 🔥 Ran into root rot in the beginning of veg but the great white and hydroguard saved my ass.🙏

This week wrapped up the generative two phase or midflower and began the generative three phase. The plants were fed the nutrients listed daily. I like to keep the p and k up high during the first week to twelve days of generative three. This week the weather has been more cooperative but far from ideal. The highs have ranged from mid 70's to 90 degrees f. The nights are running low to mid 60's f with humidity in the 90% range at night. Humidity has stayed somewhat high during the day ranging from 70% to mid 50% a few days only. This weather has really been testing these girls resistance. Plants 1 and 2 have been immune to pm. Plant 3 has responded well to treatment with arber. All the plants got a medium defoliation which helped. Everyone stacked this week. They have all reached their maximum height. I used the height of the tallest 87.5" for the official height. The two shorter plants are 61 and 62 inches.

She's looking amazing 😍 I gave her some more LST sessions and she's reacting very nicely. I did cut the LST strings right after this photoshoot, she needs now to focus on building its preflowers.

Cream Auto Summary Wk 1: Germination, game plan, equipment, and prepping the room. Wk 2: Germination progress, fertigation, and a new light. Wk 3: Two phenotypes. Wk 4: Woe and wonder, nutrients, and water source. Wk 5: Growing like a weed, and max power. Wk 6: Soaking up rays and consuming the nutrients. Algae remediation and proactive pest control. Wk 7: Will the size difference begin to fall in line with the predictions, and rearranging the wind. Wk 8: Time slows down, as buds build and plants are thirsty. Wk 9: A cone shaped bush, and trichome hunting season begins. Wk10: Playing the guessing game and learning is doing. Wk11: Escaping from Distancing. Wk12:Trichome Hunting and Changes in diet. Wk13:Lessons Wk14:When will it be the ‘right’ time? Wk15: This is the right time. Wk16: Harvest time and Summary. Final Weights: Cream 1gallon 157g (5.5oz); Cream 3gallon 299g (10.5oz); Combined 456g (16oz) ((Individual plant weight logs in pix)) New names for the Jars, 1 Cream for the 1 gallon plants buds and 2 Cream for the 3 gallon plants buds. 👉The 1 gallon plant was harvested the 3rd day of the week, It had only a couple of white pistols on each bud and wasn’t producing anymore fresh calixs. There was still very few amber trichomes, but the majority were definitely milky. Very frosty sugar leaves, and overall the buds are mega frosty and remind me of the Gorilla Glue I grew. However the buds are more airy. I started trimming from the top, and worked my way down. I recorded the wet weight for each bud and placed it on a clip with a number that corresponded to the order it was removed. I do this to monitor the % of weight loss due to moisture loss and aim for 20-25%. I did a partial dry trim and left all the frosty sugar leaves to be dry trimmed before going into jars. It had minimal actually larfy buds. I trimmed those not part of the main cola group for each branch and placed them on the rack for drying. The process went fairly easy and I might have spent 3hrs total. The sweet smell of sweet creamy citrus and the overwhelming funky stank was very fun. 👉After 2 1/2 days I placed the buds in paper bags, each cola in its own bag. The main cola was too long so reluctantly I cut it down so it would fit. After another 2 days I placed in jars, some with hygrometers and moisture packs. The overnight humidity in the jars was on average 52%. I added some damp paper towels hung off the lids to restore a bit of the humidity. This worked well and the humidity is now average 62%. I added moisture packs to some of the jars. The jar aroma is sweet cream orange zest and funky stank. 👉I had expected to harvest the one gallon plant during week 16. Given the way the 3 gallon was going, I figured the 3 gallon had another week or so. I assumed that because it had been so slow to develop in all of its phases. After I had harvested the 1 gallon I finally had a chance to really inspect the 3 gallon really closely. I couldn’t inspect it as closely as I had been the 1 gallon because it was further back in the tent and the 1 gallon hindered access. I didn’t think it was a big deal. I hadn’t rotated the 3gallon for two weeks I think. So during my close inspection, I was rotating the plant and it actually took me a while to notice…a dried up tip of a cola. This cola had been sitting on the far side. It hadn’t been against the tent wall. As soon as I saw it it was like a slap in the face…its what I feared would happen to this plant since the buds were so fat and dense….botrytis. Budrot. Nasty, grey fuzziness. My heart sunk as my fears were realized. How many more buds would be affected? Will it be like my Critical Purple and all the best big buds have this hidden scourge? I immediately inspected a few of the bigger buds. I didn’t see any. But there are over 20 colas. The only way to know for sure is to harvest. I didn’t have time to harvest the whole plant right then, so I had to wait for the next evening after work. 👉I took off work a little early to get a head start. The buds were full of sugar leaves still a lot of fan leaves so lots of trimming to do. It took a total of 6 hours from start to finish. I started doing a partial wet trim leaving the smaller frosty sugar leaves to be trimmed dry. I experimented with full wet trim on some of the smaller buds that ended up on the drying net and not left on the branch. I needed the buds to dry slow enough not to taste like hay, and fast enough the botrytis gremlin wouldn’t pay a visit. A close thorough wet trim seemed to look like it could be optimum for these buds. On the 7th branch I started giving the buds a meticulous wet trim. I took the liberty to enjoy some of my Tangerine Dream from a year ago. I listened to Physical Graffiti, Animals, Frank Marino Live, Foxtrot, and some dead air when the album ended and I needed to pick another one. I scrutinized each bud closely for any signs of the evil spores. But I saw none, such a relief after each buds inspection to see nothing but happiness. 👉I had 28 total branch end colas. Most were chunky pine cones. I recorded each branch in the order it was removed. I started at the bottom and labeled them alphabetically. 4 of the branches were smaller near the top in the middle of the canopy and one branch had the bud-rot. I trimmed the buds off the branches but left the bud group forming the cola intact. I put small larfy buds on a separate rack from the good buds trimmed of the branches, I didn’t weigh the larf, and had 72g of good chunky branch buds. The colas when dried to approx 22% weighed in at 227g. The total in the jars is 299g. Very happy! The chunky colas were slow to dry on the interior. I took special care to monitor the buds, not let them get too dry and would spread the buds open a bit to prevent wet spots that could turn into botrytis. When they got a little dry to the touch I would place them in paper bags. That slowed the drying down and allowed the moisture to equalize on the bud. I would weigh the buds and calculate the % of weigh left to help determine how dry they were. When they were below 25% of its wet weight I placed them in jars with many of them getting a hygrometer to monitor the humidity in the jars. I had to take them back out of the jars after one day and back into paper bags because the humidity climbed as high as 80% in some fo the jars. This meant the interiors were still moist. The bigger the buds the longer they needed to stay in the paper bags. The final weights on the buds were after they were dry enough to be at 62% or lower humidity in the jars wish was still around 20% of the wet weight. The jar aroma is not very strong. The aroma is a light sweet orange zest. It should improve over time. The buds are dense and sticky. Not all the colas got their own jars unless they were big enough. Some of the colas I separated from the branches and placed in smaller jars, even combining some of them. The intact colas got the large jars and some were combined in those as well. 👉I have one of those Trim-trays with the screen in the bottom with a tray underneath to catch keif. I trimmed off fans leaves and leaves with no fuzziness on them. I trim the fuzzy leaves over the tray. I did this for both plants. When doing the 3 gallon plants trimming I also snipped up some of the larf and small buds into small pieces to add to the pile. I let the trim sit in the tray till it was crispy dry. I then used my hands to grind the trim into smaller bits. I used a plastic card to scrape the pile back and forth across the screen. I continued to grind up the trim with my hands and alternately scrape the screen and sift the pile. It was hard to tell how much I had got till I used the plastic card to scrap the catch tray. I was pleasantly surprised to see a nice pile form. I made 4 pucks. 👉The bud is cured and stable humidity in jars. I’m doing the typical jar burping and inspection daily for another few days. I have tested both plants and am extremely pleased! Both have a sweet creamy orange zest like aroma (but not like an orange creamsicle). The 1gallon, now called 1Cream, is the strongest jar aroma. When hit on the bong both have a sweet creamy smooth after taste, and again the 1Cream is the strongest flavor. Both are very sticky when pinching off a bit for the bong, and the 1 gallon is the stickiest. Both pass the one hit test with flying colors! Hard to tell the difference between the two as far as the high goes, creeper buzz, with a nice uplifting energy, settling into couch lock and sleep-inducing trail-off. Perfect for night time use. I’m surprised at how nice it is already. The typical 6 week cure review will be updated in the review. If its anything like the other plants Ive grown so far 6 months is when it really hits its stride and is at its best flavor and effect. 👉Methodology Summation: I am really happy with the fruits of my labor. Its not perfect, and I believe I have learned a lot of knowledge and insight. All my grows so far have been in 3 gallon cloth pots with coco coir mixed with 30% total volume of expanded clay pebbles for hydro. The one gallon plant got bigger than I expected it could. I believe that’s due to frequent fertigation I the coco/cloth pot. The problems of being in an undersized pot were somewhat mitigated but not eliminated. The 3 gallon was also showing some of the issues of an undersized container but not as severe as the one gallon. Knowing this will help if I choose to grow in a smaller pot again. Obviously the draw backs to the under sized pots is the issues show up during flower when the plant is at its biggest. Maybe next time I wont exacerbate the issues by chasing my tail. But the drawbacks are not enough to say its bad news to grow good big buds in undersized pots. There is a drawback to frequent fertigation method, the amount of time spent tending to the plant. Two times a day, every day. That is actually the minimum recommended. If I could have automated it I would have done 3 times a day. I am curious what my results might be if I was able to fertigate 3xs a day. I chose this method so I would be spending a lot of time tending my plants anyway, and with coco I avoid the pitfalls of over watering soil when you’re an overzealous gardener. 👉Growing Summary: The 3gallon was actually the second seed to germinate. The first seed petered out, and the 1 gallon was put in four days after the 3gallon had germinated. The 3 gallon was slow to straighten and open its cotyledons up. The cotyledons had a yellow tinge to part of them. It was slow grow for the rest of the grow when compared to the 1 gallon plant which started flowering 12 days before the 3 gallon and seemingly was always almost 2 weeks ahead of the 3 gallon. The trunks of both plants became very stout. I was wondering if somehow I had been given mismatched seed pack, but in the end I think they are the same strain due to the similarities such as aroma and high. The leaves were identical. Both had fat stout trunks, and both had super sturdy branches. I didn’t use one support for the 3 gallon plant, a first for me, and the buds were very dense and heavy. I put some on the 1 gallon plant but that was for its protection from me since it was at the front of the tent. Both plants also smelled similar, sweet caramel cream when sniffed up close. But different in the natural canopy both made around its queen cola, and in the structure of the flowers. Its been very fun and interesting watching these plants grow and seeing two phenotypes of the same strain!😻

Hi alle zusammen dies war die letzte vegi Woche puh! Wieder 10 Wochen ins Land gezogen die Zeit rennt auch 😰! Die Woche lief ganz gut bus auf Dienstag da wollte ich alles noch einmal nach justieren und da ist mir die lady die hinten rechts steht gerissen also das T von oben ein gerissen (gespalten) hat sie aber nicht sonderlich gestört hab sie so gut es geht fixiert (sollte auf den Bildern und dem video zu sehen sein werde es nächste woche nochmal genauer fotografieren) ist leider dadurch nicht alles unbedingt auf gleicher Höhe so 2 bis 3 cm höhen unterschied zu der kleinsten von den 4 octos aber naja habe Freitag abend nachdem das Licht aus ging den reflektor ausgebaut und einmal Grund gereinigt und wieder eingebaut danach das ganze von meiner Mh auf Ndl gewechselt. Die zeitschschalt Uhr habe ich auf 12/12 umgestellt ab jetzt geht es langsam Richtung heisse Phase 😁😂(ich freue mich schon auf den Duft und das geglitzer) euch allen ein schönes Wochenende mit viel Sonne 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞

Semana 14 desde semilla. La planta sigue creciendo lustrosa y engordando las colas, a pesar de alguna incidencia. - A mitad de semana comencé a notar pequeñas quemaduras en la punta de las hojas más grandes, hice un riego con agua pura y medí la concentración de PPM en el agua escurrida en el plato. La medida me dió cifras locas de hasta PPM: 7500, es una medida altísima para mis propósitos, pero tampoco se puede comparar con altas concentraciones PPM surgidas de riegos con fertilizantes químicos, donde esas medidas hubieran matado irremediablemente el cultivo. Los motivos de estas altas concentraciones de minerales y nutrientes en el sustrato son por causa de un exceso de aporte de nutrientes líquidos, sin dar descanso y oportunidad al cultivo de ir digiriendo los nutrientes que le aplico, - Dos días después de la detección del desequilibro en el sustrato, puse 3L de agua de lluvia (EC: 0,036) y bajo el nivel de PPM hasta 1500. Como se demuestra un lavado de raíces en un sustrato puramente orgánico es mucho más fácil por la poca agua necesaria, ya que el arrastre o disolución de componentes sobrantes es mucho más directa y no necesita tanta agua como para disolver las sales acumuladas de fertilizaciones químicas. Cuando se hace un lavado de raíces como el anterior, se debe de tener en cuenta que, el elemento que más rápidamente se pierde por el lixiviado es el Nitrógeno, en base a esto observar las señales de falta de nitrógeno y corregir en posteriores riegos. • En base a lo anterior, partir de esta semana comienzo a aplicar otra estrategia para el riego con nutrientes, el cambio lo voy a hacer en todos los cultivos y se trata de esperar al menos 72h desde el último aporte de nutrientes (Sólidos o líquidos) para aplicar nuevos, mientras tanto, si la planta necesita riego, lo haré sólo con agua para de esta manera dar tiempo a la planta a digerir todos los nutrientes convenientemente, voy a bajar también el nivel de EC en todos los riegos durante todo el cultivo, además voy a hacer formulaciones nutricionales más simples y específicas, excepto componentes que sistemáticamente incluyo en todos los riegos como el Ormus, la melaza o la miel, con este cambio de estrategia estaré muy atento a las señales de la planta, el motivo del cambio es primero para reforzar mi autocontrol frente a mi afición a sobrealimentar las plantas debido a mi colección de preparados 😋, aunque no es fácil bloquear dramáticamente una planta cultivada con puros elementos orgánicos, estoy observando un exagerado EC en el agua sobrante de las macetas, esto me indica que los MM están haciendo muy bien su trabajo de disolver los componentes del sustrato, componentes que al añadirlos en demasía enriquecen sin medida el sustrato haciéndolo demasiado denso, perjudicando su eficacia. 😕 DIETA SEMANAL 1) Día 99. Ormus 2%, Bio frutas NP 2%, Lacto fermento MMM 1%, Hidrolizado de Pezuña 0,25% y Melaza. PH: 6.33 EC: 2.0 - 900ml. 2) Día 100. Ormus 1,5%, Humato PK 1,5% y Melaza. PH: 6.3 EC: 1.66 - 600ml. 3) Día 101. Ormus 2,2%, MMA 3%, Melaza y Lixiviado 2%. PH: 6.6 EC: 2.0 - 500ml. 4) Día 102. Ormus 1%, Humato Mineral 2% y Melaza. PH: 6.4 EC: 1.87 - 900ml. 5) Día 103. Sólo agua pura con miel. PH: 6.8 EC: 0.350 - 600ml. 6) Día 104. Agua pura con miel y 1% de MMA y Ormus. PH: 6.37 EC: 0.850 - 800ml. 7) Día 105. Agua de lluvia. PH: 6.8 EC: 0,036. 3L. (Recojo 1,8 litros de lixiviado que uso diluido para regar mis geranios y otras flores) 😂 GROWING TIPS Lacto fermento experimental con auxinas y enriquecido con minerales y nutrientes NP, para usar desde germinación hasta preflora. Debido a que disponía de 1,2 litros de auxinas líquidas y estaban a poco de caducar he comenzado este bio fertilizante con la intención de mantener una solución de riego rico en auxinas naturales y otros elementos específicos para enraizado y crecimiento vegetativo. 1) Obtención del suero de leche con leche fresca o pasteurizada. a) Calentar la leche entre 70°C a 90°C b) Apagar el fuego y añadir el zumo de 1 limón grande. c) Revolver con madera hasta que se vea la leche cortada. d) Dejar enfriar 30 minutos. e) Colar y filtrar para separar el suero de la materia sólida. f) De 1,5l de leche pasteurizada he sacado 1,2l. de suero. 2) Mezclar el suero con melaza y miel 3) Pesar los componentes sólidos y añadirlos al recipiente digestor. Añado zanahoria picada para garantizar la presencia de Boro. 4) Añadir al suero, Bacterias ácido lácticas (BAL), levadura de pan y Ormus. 5) Añadir la mezcla al barril. 6) Agitar vigorosamente. 7) Añado el agua de auxinas.* 8) Cierro herméticamente el recipiente y coloco la válvula de escape de gases. 9) Lo dejo fermentar al menos por 30 días. Cuanto más tiempo se mantenga en fermentación mejor es el resultado del lacto fermento, como el vino!! * Para todos mis fermentados y bioles uso agua de un manantial de montaña cercano, este agua es muy alcalina PH: 9.2 y contiene mucho mineral: EC: 0.85, la uso para compensar la acidez de los fermentados y garantizar un aporte seguro de carbonato cálcico y trazas minerales. El preparado comenzó a fermentar a los 20 minutos de cerrar el barril. Probaré este lacto fermento incluyéndolo en mis procesos de germinación y crecimiento. Saludos y hasta la próxima semana!! 😷

The buds are noticeably swelling up, getting thicker and more solid every day. They’re really starting to take on that dense, compact form I’ve been hoping for. It's amazing to see them take shape, becoming more compact and substantial. The plant seems to be doing really well overall—healthy, vibrant, and strong. Every day, I'm noticing more trichomes forming on the buds. It’s a sure sign that everything is progressing nicely, and resin production is in full swing. I’m eager to see how things will unfold in the coming weeks. The excitement is building as I get closer to the final stages. Can’t wait to see what’s next!🌱

Continues to stretch and add more bud sites. Increased maxigro for that final stretch.
