This week I had almost no time at all due to family commitments - I'm also completely at a loss as to what deficiency my plants are suffering from. I would say a serious calcium magnesium deficiency. But why? I mixed every watering with calmag - I suspect that the pH value in the soil was not right at times. The deficiency came overnight with the second compost tea. Oh well - I hope I can still salvage something. I would be very grateful for help. Thank you 🙏

26.1.25: I have had a mistake 😕 I spilt some Fish Mix as I was experimenting with a syphon from some aquarium tubing I have. Unfortunately, I forgot to take the syphon out! Ugh 😣 However, it is fish emulsion and very thick consistency. Therefore, I was able to scrape it up with 2 of my business cards up off the counter. So added this extra into the next 2 ltr solution I mixed. All plants were watered with at least 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3. Containing the following nutrients;- ♡ 3ml Seachem Seaweed ♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix ♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow ♡ 3ml Biobizz Bloom ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Bloom Booster ♡ 2ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag ♡ .25g Ecothrive Biosys. ♡ 2.5g of Bicarbonate of Soda as PH UP. Unfortunately I have broken my PH pen too. Accidentally submerged it under water, then the readings went crazy. I'm leaving it to dry by standing it up but I'm most likely going to need a new one, which is extremely annoying 😑 I'm going start implementing the Scrog net probably some point next week if I let the plants that are in flower to just grow up now, as I do believe that I stunted Watermelon 🍉 by using too strenuous LST. Hopefully the plants still are able to grow upwards at this stage during flower for all the Purple Punch P1, P2 and P3. We will soon see! 28.1.25: My PH pen has packed up 😣 I've got to wait to get another. It's super annoying 😑 so I'm just judging by memory how to regulate it. Unfortunately, that's my only choice! I'm also out of the dechlorinator 😕 things are not going very well this week so far 😅 I guess we will have to make do, until I can get replenished. 29.1.25: I removed all the plants, hoovered, and disinfected the tent. There were several accidents when watering, causing some debris and splashes. I decided to just go ahead and get a few other things done. It's crazy how quickly things can become neglected! 😣 So I defoliated moderately on all plants except Gorilla Cookies seedling. I have absolutely dropped the ball on my lighting situation! My light was much further away than I thought! I turned it up to 100% and dropped it down to just under 2 feet away. After I reset the tent, I set up my scrog net. I removed 80% of all LST pegs. I am planning on letting the scrog net take over the training from here. I really want to minimise the risk of mould, so I decided to start using my dehumidifier. It has raised up to 73% RH this week, so it's necessary. Hopefully, I will be able to get my dechlorinator and PH pen soon! That's kind of essential to me. It's been a little bit of a stressful day in the garden, to be honest 😅 30.1.25: So I am expecting the arrival of my new PH pen today, as well as my new bottle of Ecothrive neutralise. It is supposed to measure the TDS and EC in addition to the standard TEMP and PH, which I had previously. Obviously, time will tell if it's any good or not. I realise, much too late now, that my lighting is very insufficient for this many plants. I need double the watts at least, and coverage is very poor. I remembered I had an old LED floor lamp, which was in a corner being unused. I decided to take the stand off, and Zip tied the pole onto the tent pole at the back left corner. I have no idea what the wattage is, and it's quite pathetic 😅 but I mean, I might as well use it, being as I definitely cannot afford more lights! 😣 Next grow, I will probably only grow 2 plants, max 4, and just use larger 7-10 Gallon pots. Being as I ran out of dechlorinator, I only watered some plants properly because I only had enough to make 6 litres. When my pen arrives, I will get everything properly watered. 31.1.25: The leaves of several plants are showing signs of iron deficiency. This is likely due to my PH pen packing up earlier. I now have a new pen. Due to this, I decided to use my Seachem Prime, which I use for my aquariums. As I wanted to get them watered properly, and my Ecothrive Neutralise hasn't arrived yet. I watered each plant with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0. I added .25g Ecothrive Biosys to the water. May give them a breather on the nutes and just use the Cal-Mag and Biosys. Being as I've just topped dressed with rich fertilisers, I'm sure that will be OK for the next several waterings. Bubble Kush

At the beginning of the second week, one of them started to completely freak out and mutated with all the impossible possible symptoms on the leaf pattern. I think maybe the soil life, i.e. the microbiome, was still too busy in the process of conversion and metabolism. And experience has shown that the Trichoderma bacteria usually take different amounts of time to symbiotize with the seedling and substrate. Also Myccorhiza.

Ginger Nut Cookies & Aussie Music Videos 5 weeks of flowering completed 2nd April 2020 Hi Everyone , Welcome back to my diary The plant I created is growing nicely nothing much to report other than the smell has changed yet again... Now it resembles yoghurt or slightly sour milk crossed with fruit. Not an unpleasent smell by any means just unusual. I'm not needing to feed a lot as the soil seems to be providing most of her nutritional needs. Now For the Aussie Music Videos Because this plant is geeting closer and closer to harvest time I thought I had better start doing more than one video a week lest I miss out on too many great videos I could add. So this week I have picked three videos from three different Artists all of which are very much loved here in australia. First one is a Group called "Crowded House" with their hit song "Better be home soon" here is the link.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQOlwMKpmvQ Second group is called the "Hoodoo Gurus" with "Like wow wipe out" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFnaNPGe4gQ And the third for this week is a great band actually from New Zealand but we claim them as our own "Mental as Anything" with "Live It Up" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK_eQImKnPA As usual I have provided a short clip of each song as a preview in the above image and video section. I hope you like this weeks update and please leave me a like if you did. Please stay safe and well Everyone and I will see you all back here next Week.

TUESDAY 1/15: MuthaPHucking PH fluctuations again!!!!! 😖 I calibrate my 2 cheapo- ph pens everymotherPHucking day and STILL it happens....PHuck the dumb shit....I just ordered a $100+ Apera tester.👈 I watered everybody with about a half-gallon of water, plus heavy boomerang and calimagic, some bud candy, some terpinator, some kelp me kelp you, some armor silica, and the bloomers got their first dose of open sesame..no big bloom or grow big for anyone. WEDNESDAY: I foliar fed them a few times and calibrated my new ph tester. The big C4 is branching like crazy...the little one is flowering now..hopefully she stretches really well too. All 3 WW's have started flowering. I FIM'd the last 2 WW's today, so everybody's done. Debbie Diesel is looking strong..big thick main stalk. The Northern Lights is also showing me some vertical growth now. All 3 Candy Canes are budding up nicely.👍 FRIDAY: I fed everybody about a half-gallon and foliar fed them a couple of times. SATURDAY: Foliar fed a few times The Candy Canes have stretched so much that I may need to raise my lights a little..they are about 16 inches from the tops now....monitoring... SUNDAY: Foliar fed a few times Still no sign of light burn on the CC's, so I'm leaving the lights where they are. MONDAY: Still moist..will water tomorrow with my new pump-driven system👍

49 Days! Lost a day of timelapse footage, found a temporary fix tho, should not happen again. The plant stretched a little and is full on on flower. This will most likely end up as a single big bloop of bud again, sadly did not stretch as much as I liked it to be. Overall a good week. Spoiler: added lights to the bottom to get more light inside the plant at the first day of week 8, more on that next week. Values are average of the day.

FLOWER WEEK 5: Big Bang | Divine Seeds 💥 ​🌱 FLOWERING PROGRESS ​The Big Bang is hitting her absolute prime mid-bloom phase this week! 💥 The flower production has taken over completely, and the colas are swelling at a notable rate. The canopy is holding its uniform structure above the Scrog line, and the stacking is looking tight and intense. 📈 ​Trichome development has accelerated massively over the past few days, coating the main bud clusters and surrounding sugar leaves in a frosty layer of resin. The pistils are incredibly dense and long, forming thick, hairy white crowns on every single top. Overall plant vitality is outstanding as she continues to channel all her internal resources into maximizing bud volume and flower density. 🕸️✨ ​💧 NUTRIENT FEEDING & WATERING ​I’ve dialed up the organic nutrition line to match her peak-flowering hunger, pushing the main sugars, bio-stimulators, and energy enzymes to maximum levels. ⚡ ​Current Feeding Schedule (per Liter): ​Bio-Bloom: 3.0 ml/l ​Bio-Heaven: 4.0 ml/l ​Acti-Vera: 4.0 ml/l ​Bio-Grow: 1.0 ml/l ​Top-Max: 1.0 ml/l ​Calmag: 1.0 ml/l ​Parameters: ​pH: 6.5 ​Relative Humidity (RH): 59.0% 💧 ​Temperature: 30.0 °C 🌡️ ​VPD: ~1.73 kPa ​CO2: 675 ppm 💨 ​💭 GROWER'S NOTE ​👀 Status Report: Things are heating up in the tent! With temperatures hitting 30°C and a matching 59% RH, the VPD has pushed up to around 1.73 kPa. This high-performance climate means the Big Bang is transpiring at full speed. By upgrading the diet to 3 ml/l Bio-Bloom and boosting both Bio-Heaven and Acti-Vera to 4 ml/l, I'm giving her the massive energy reserves she needs to process nutrients at this high transpiration rate. Luckily, this solid Divine Seeds phenotype handles the summer-like conditions like an absolute tank. The buds are noticeably packing on frost and thickness daily. Keeping the airflow high and pushing hard through peak bloom! 🚀🌱✨

Final veg day today, still watering straight water with Pro-TeKt (twice this week, 3 since I last fed) & the run off PPMs oddly keep rising at the pH drops was hoping to kick into the AgroThrive flower formula next water but I many hold off another time average run off PPM is 2768, I don't know if this rise is an organic thing but the plants look generally good to me. Trimmed more & added one more LST clip this week.

Que hay de nuevo familia. Primera semana de unas gorilas que encontramos por el cajón. Debido a una liada mia y perdiendo una crazy cookies, por mi culpa básicamente. Colocamos 4/4 semillas y ponemos 2 tiestos de 7L y otros 2 tiestos de 5L. DICEN, que tenga cuidado con esta variedad por los plátanos, solo son oídas no obstante lo tomo en cuenta. Variedad con alto contenido en thc, bien echa puede llegar al 25%. Temperatura bien controlada está primera semana. Humedad algo baja a lo que me gustaría pero ahí va también con 55% Nos vemos en un día que actualizamos diarios de Zambezaseeds.

Sorry for the late video post.. I was assaulted and 2 of my 23 year old cats passed away 2 days ago.. So it's been a rough few weeks... Couple of yellow leaves.. Never had that problem using just RO water... Can't go to the grow store to get RO water right now. Transplanted 6-18-2020 switched to 12/12 🕒

Day 65 (12/31): no change. Day 66 (1/1): I'm thinking the plant on the left will be finished before the plant on the right. The leaves seem to be fading and the trichomes seem to be more mature on that plant also. 11pm: just watered the plants nutes. Same as last time. Left plant 6mL micro 12 mL bloom. Right plant 8mL micro 16 mL bloom Day 67 (1/2) Day 68 (1/3) Day 69 (1/4): just got home from a trip. Plants seem to be doing fine. Nearing the end I assume. Plants will probably need water tonight 10pm: just fed my plants nutes again. Both plants received 8mL of micro and 16 mL of bloom. Day 70: (1/5) Day 71 (1/6): plants look good this morning. The left plant is definitely nearing the end of its life. The plant on the right still could have another week or more. Just posted a video: plant on the left definitely doesn't have very large or dense nugs but it has a lot of them. The plant on the right has some super dense nugs. I'm excited to see what they both yield.

Slight accident this week where the red spectrum bar had popped of the railing and fell on the front row of babies and burnt them :( they’re recovering Everything seems slow in this compost/coco soil mix but hey…chugging along. I think I may go full coco next run. I believe they should start focusing on bud now have top dressed once more with compost & 2-8-4.

Pistils are getting fatter just consistent growth throughout I moved the light closer to it so that it can get more light through the plant & it helped a lot. Week 5 check out my other grows (The New, Gelato Cake) & follow my IG @therealterpio

After strength training and taking a cutting off the tall one to the left, all plants are at 90cm. I also removed the two lowest branches for cuttings. The two on the right have much less of a Sativa shaped leaf and also grew very quickly even in the rain and thunderstorms! All seem to have recovered from strength training and growing vigorously!
