Everything's good buying a 600watt ZNet 4 to add more light!

The harvest was a bit improvised. I pre-dried them outside under a sun screen (not choped yet) for 3 days at 30°C and 45% humidity. Then chopped only the buds and dried indoors for another 4d at 25°C and 62% humidity. Not ideal, they probably lost some terpenes. But no other way to do it at the time. Now they are curing at a stable 62% humidity. The grassy smell slowly disappears. Still, the aroma is not great. When I press the buds a mix of lime and pine is released but the ouside smells just like old, overdried herbs. It's my first time curing. So I dont know what to expect or if it will get better? Let's see. Dry bud weight was 75g. We are only legally allowed 50g dry so I had to destroy a bit. Buds are medium sticky and slightly airy but good overall. The strain was low maintenance and grew quite large. Only had to cut a couple spots (1x mildew, 1x bud rot). However, it was not purple as advertised. Checking back with Dutch Pasion, they are not aware of a non-purple pheno. I compared with pictures from its parents and it looks a lot like the Forbidden Fruit. I assume it got most of their genetics.

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

Plants just received their last feeding. Only ph balanced water for the last 2 weeks to flush out nutrients. Leaves are starting to yellow showing signs of being almost ready for harvest. The trics are about half cloudy.

Buenas noticias para esta semana. 1. La semana pasada comenté que tenía una planta desordenada, pues no me había percatado que la karpa tenía un orificio abierto en el techo y estaba entrando contaminación lumínica cuando dormía y por eso estaba débil. 2. Un loco que sabe más que yo, me dijo que las puntas amarillas es algo bueno en mis plantas y no algo malo, por lo que están saludables. 3. Las flores tuvieron un gran avance y ya se notan de mejor tamaño y un excelente aroma. 4. El calor y la humedad hacen que cada planta consuma 2 lts de líquido al día. 5. Voy a iniciar Pk1314 esta semana que sigue. Malas noticias 1. Ya no tengo mota seca jajaj Buenos humos

Final phase, just water and environment control. A lot of damaged, stained and discoloured leaves. Not sure if related to the fert switching. All in all, they are looking good. Harvest week incoming.

👉The last waiting game is just about at an end. It has mostly cloudy trichomes, with still a few clears. Some ambers are scattered about and are mostly on the sugar leaves. Super frosty, super intoxicating aroma or sweet citrus. The leaves have faded only slightly. I could harvest it today if I had time. I think it may be a couple more days. I am set up and ready to harvest when it feels right. 👉I have been giving it nutrient mixed at the high end of the EC range for the Ripen mix from the General Hydroponics Drain to waste feed schedule. I have given a couple of H20nly irrigations followed by a full strength solution fertigation. The EC spikes in a couple days and the pH drops. One H2Only event gets the run-off and pH back in the target zone. I will continue fertigations till harvest day. Any day now.😎

Světlo jede na 50% a teplota stoupla na pouhých 23,3°C přes den. Doufal jsem trochu víc ale nic s tim bohužel neudělám D29: 3 dny po přesazení holek do 11 L květináčů Shogun 5 a Haze Berry 1 mají na spodních listech trochu popálené konečky 😓 , ale jinak vypadají spokojeně. Asi jsem použil trochu více BioBizz Worm Humus během přesazování. Zbylé holky vypadají velmi spokojeně a mají sytě zelené listy které jsou naprosto bez vady 😍 7 rostlin má momentálně 5 nodů jedna rostlina už 6, takže v druhé polovině týdne začnu s vytvářením potrubí na main-linning. Už se nemůžu dočkat až začnu s tréninkem 😍 D31: Každá rostlina zalita 500ml čisté vody bez živin D33 čtvrtek: Holky jsem zastřihl u 3. Nodu a vyčistil od zbylého porostu. Ponechal jsem pouze přilehlé listy u rostlin s menšími větvemi. Povedlo se mi zlomit jednu větev u Haze Berry 1 během LST :'( zranění jsem ošetřil ale po 8 hodinách je zřejmé že větev nepřežije :'( Vysadil jsem 3 semena Sweet Orange XL od českých pěstitelů z Natural Seeds jako náhradu za zlomenou větev Každá rostlina dostala 1L vody s živinami které můžete vidět v tabulce D35: Vyklíčila všechna semena Sweet Orange XL. Všechna ve stejný den :)

Week 6

On cruise control until harvest! She's very sticky, and smelly! 2.5 gallons dosage of the above listed nutes, every 4 days! Flush next watering, and then just water 'till harvest.

Saskatoon Berry occupies the front middle two pots of the tent. There are three plants. 2 have established roots, one still struggles to catch up. Flip is happening soon so there isn't much time left.

4/30 one of the plants has actually visibly stretched more in the last 48 hrs. Starting to impress me with the pistols. Still way smaller than their projections online but whatever 🤷🏽‍♂️ 5/4 end of the week and I’m pretty okay with their size now 😂 they went through a sizable stretch. I’ll have to get my measuring tape back in the tent because each time I’m adding to this diary, I question whether I’m on the right week or not because they look like dwarfs compared to the end of the week

Day 127 06/09/24 Friday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Day 129 08/09/24 Sunday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with calmag Day 131 10/09/24 Tuesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with Plagron products. Day 133 12/09/24 Thursday (End of Week) Feed again today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only. Picture and video update 😎💚

Another week closer to harvest! She’s looking and smelling amazing!! I can’t wait to smoke this delicious plant. I’m out of plant yo-yos!

Blue cheese auto day 77 couple of mistakes made first off my two middle shoots stretched out too much during the stretch phase and didn’t seem to be developing at the same rate of the rest of the plant I bent the two tallest tops over breaking one and then not keeping them down they where back up the next day I didn’t want to stress the plant anymore so I left it I then got a light meter and noticed the light was too intense so I have turned the light down now, still some decant looking buds on it and the tops are starting to mature started flushing on Monday the 18th july 90 litres of water ph to 6.5 through my 40litre pot until my ppm runoff was down to 198ppm I will be harvesting in the next two weeks, swipe to the end for video

**Grow Report by Zuppler - Week 1 Flowering Phase** Ayo, what’s good fam? Zuppler back in this b**** with the week 1 flowering update, straight outta the capital. We just flipped the switch to that 12/12, and these girls already know what time it is – they starting to stretch out like they tryna reach for the stars. We runnin’ that Ape Formula from Advanced Nutrients, got the whole squad dialed in on some next-level s***. Feeding them queens like they royalty, nah mean? We keepin' it real precise with that RO water – pure as it gets, no cap. I ain't lettin' no junk minerals mess up the game. We stayin’ locked on that pH balance like a sniper, so the nutes hit right, and them roots keep drinkin’ smooth. So far, no issues – the plants look strong, real healthy. Ain’t no signs of deficiencies, and the leaves stayin’ green like money. The canopy lookin’ good too, spreadin’ out evenly. All them colas just gettin' ready to explode. You already know, we keepin’ everything low stress, tryin’ to maximize that yield without no drama. Temperature’s steady, humidity right where it need to be – we not takin’ no L’s, bro. It’s early days, but the stretch is comin’ in strong. In a minute, these girls gon' be stackin’ up them buds real heavy. I can already tell we ‘bout to be sittin’ on some fire soon. Stay posted, this is just the beginning. Zuppler signin' out.

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 22 since time change to 12/12 h Hey guys :-) The stretch is in full swing and it continues to develop beautifully :-). The GBL fertilizer does exactly the job it should 👍. Organic more PK will be added in the coming days. It was poured 3 times this week (for nutrients, see table above). The lowest shoots have been removed so that the energy reaches the upper area completely :-). Otherwise, as always, the lady was checked for her health and the tent was cleaned. I wish you all a lot of fun with the update this week.

I did some defoliation and pruning of lower branches at the start of the week and this plant hasn't recovered as much foliage as the CBD Blue Shark, even though this one was bigger until recently. I think the plants have a preference for being on the left, right underneath the filament part of the light bulb. I also still need to finish the right wall and put white mylar on it. Maybe I will switch the plants for a bit.
