They have all been topped. They're starting to bounce back and get the nutrients they need from the soil. I let them go a little bit too long and they were getting really hungry and deficient. I have added my heater to my lung room so that the night and day temps can be up just a bit higher. About 5 degrees more would be efficient for this stage of life. 12/11/25 They're really starting to bounce back They're all actually pretty uniform as of now. With a couple outliers like #2 being a very obvious runt of the litter

Noticed some slight tacoing on leaves, changed to my 18/6 light schedule to help control temps and give some rest. Noticed some nute burning also, will full flush next week.

In the third week of the cannabis plant growth cycle, significant developments occur that set the foundation for future growth and yield. This stage is crucial for implementing training techniques that ensure even canopy growth, promoting optimal light exposure for all parts of the plant. To ensure uniform growth and maximize light exposure, LST have been applied By the end of the third week, the cannabis plants have demonstrated excellent growth, supported by strategic training techniques and effective pest management practices. Despite the plant's healthy growth, the presence of fungus gnats posed a potential threat. To combat these pests, beneficial nematodes (Steinernema feltiae) were introduced into the soil. Continued monitoring and adjustments will be essential as the plants progress into the next growth stages to ensure a bountiful harvest.

So, this is my first grow, just starting out. After NJ passed recreational weed, I was like you know what... Went on an amazon spending spree and got some seeds from cropkingseeds and this is it! I let the seeds soak for 18hr in deer park spring water w/ 1 drop of Organic Liquid Seaweed and Kelp Fertilizer Supplement by Bloom City. At the end of soakage, it didn't look like any had cracked maybe one did not so sure. So I did up the papertowels according to the video and have to say I feel a little nervous/anxious that there is too much water/weight on the seeds and feer drownage. I'm going to keep it on there though. I check the towels a few times throughout the day and am surprised they're very moist throughout the day and next morning still somewhat damp. 24 hours in the towels I check my babies and one had cracked but the rest were still sealed up tight, unwilling to share the goodness that we all so desire, cmon babies crack that shell for papa! 11/12 looked like 1 seed popped, yay! I remoistened towels a bit but didn't wanna soak them. I also put some rapid rooters in water to soak overnight gunna throw the seeds in them in AM... I was going to do it tonight but figured I should wait see if some pop out more. 11/13 OMG upon checking seeds at 07:10 I found the papertowels like bone dry OMG WTF!!! Panic sets in but I just set up the little terrarium with 6 plugs and put the seeds in and tore some plugs off bottom of a plug to cover seedhole with. 11/14 Got a sprout! YES!! The plugs look nice and moist just going to let it go! 11/15 Woke up this mornin, saw a new sprout peeking thru and then another about to! I got ansy and took off the little top plugs and found all the sprouts were coming up! Leaving the top plug off, hopefully thats not a bad idea.

Day 57 the plant continues to grow without a problem I can see there are continue to stretch I used painters tape around the branches that I supercrop in order to give them a little bit support and allow nutrients to continue to flow through the branch the plant has been recovering very well from high stress training and I'm looking forward to see how this girl is going to turn out . I know that most of the growers in this platform and elsewhere do defoliate and trim down all the lower branches of the plant so that the plant can concentrate all its energy into the higher bigger and better buds .and I do not do this because I drive the plants very hard with nutrients and those lower branches with small buds always give me the first sign of anything going wrong with her and that's why I leave them as a buffer zone to protect the bigger buds and that way I can push her as hard as I want. thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow

Okay so I’ve been slacking a bit on the grow-diaries, only because I’ve had a lot going on and also because I don’t feel obligated to do so because this isn’t a sponsored grow. It’s been nice to have a little break but I think I’m ready to come back at it full force again. These girls are living their best lives, they are all the same age and they are all thriving. Floraflex nutrients, as well as some Silica, Regina-root, and a trichome enhancer called “Grease”!! Seems like the real deal. Watering every other day and let me tell you these girls are very thirsty. Defol as needed! My new HLG Blackbird lamp fixture is out of this world. My 3 autos that you can also find in my profile absolutely blew up. I typically fit 4 autos in my 3x3 but now it’s essentially one Purple punch from Fastbuds and I had to cram 2 more inside basically because they are going crazy. Unfortunately I had to move them from under the blackbird and put them under a HLG350R and they are still going crazy. Basically what I’m saying is HLG Lamps=Crazy growth and amazing lamps!! HLG has a lifetime customer! That’s it for now but check in next week to see the progress! Thanks for tuning in. Until next time and as always, Stay Smokey my Friends!!! 💨💨💨 Instagram: Virginia_nugz_540 Sponsors: Horticulture Lighting Group HLG-Blackbird HLG-600RSpec HLG-350R Diablo (X2) Discount code: Virginia_Nugz Petra Tools LTPRO 2.0 Backpack Sprayer Trimbag Standard Trimbag Discount Code: Virginia_nugz Fastbuds Fastbuds Genetics Goat and Monkey Hydrokulture Store 4x4 Gorilla Tent

Aug 17: Auto Overdose is a nice plant but it’s not an auto. I started this one late and only topped it once thinking it was an auto. Other growers have noticed it isn’t an auto too, so I forced it in the dark garage. Flowering has to be started by the end of July here or it won’t finish in the fall. The flowers are forming quickly and I suspect this is actually Overdose Fast. So far so good, and good genetics for a Fast plant. Aug 18: no UV light today unfortunately but it was decently sunny. Scrog net certainly seems like a good idea. This plant is asymmetrical because I broke one of the two main stems a couple weeks after topping. This changed the shape of the plant so it’s become one-sided as if I was growing it up against a wall. Lots of nice lower branches came up so she looks pretty good now.

Die letzte Woche. Da bereits einige Pflanzen in der vorigen Woche geerntet wurden, ist unsere Zauberkiste nun deutlich leerer als in den letzten Monaten. Ich persönlich werde bei dem Anblick schon fast melancholisch-😢😀 Aber auch mit einem lachendem Auge denn der Geruch und das Aussehen der Buds ist wirklich fantastisch. Wird können es kaum erwarten sie alle nach und nach abzuernten. Warscheinlich werden wir dies auf mehrere Tage verteilen, da wir uns die Arbeit etwas einteilen wollen. Aber wir wollen mal nicht jammern 😝

This week the plant got her first topping and it was a success as the topped part has formed into 2 new branches. This was my first ever topping 💪 Added a 20w flood light on the side of the plant so the plant has access to more light under the big fan leafs. Overall very happy with the growth

Hey Growers, end of week 2 from seed - Plant #2 since the start has been giving me minor problems. Ever since yellow spots began to come out on some of the leaves I've been trying to figure out what’s the issue. I was feeding only water at a PH of 6.35, PPM 34, light lux 75 x100. I decided to drop the PH to 6.0. Its been a slow recovery but the Yellow spots began to turn green again day by day. Its still not 100% but its looking much better than before. - Growth slowed down a bit, maybe its due to the yellowing in the leaves

Day 50 Kong’s Krush (7 plants) and 24K Runtz (1 plant) We’ve finally reached the last days of bloom! During week 7, I alternated between plain water and a total flush solution, making sure to wash out all excess nutrients. Now, in week 8, the final phase begins: • Today and tomorrow the plants will remain under their normal light cycle. • After that, I’ll move them into 2–3 days of complete darkness to maximize stress at the end, enhancing resin production and terpenes before harvest. Harvest plan: Kong’s Krush is right on schedule, perfectly matching its estimated 50–56 day window. 24K Runtz, on the other hand, is not 100% mature yet (trichomes still show it), but due to the timing differences between strains, I’ll cut them together to dry and cure at the same time. Aromas: • Kong’s Krush → spicy sweet notes, with hints of cinnamon and banana • 24K Runtz → powerful orange and citrus punch Exciting to be so close to harvest — the next update will be the final cut! ✂️🌱

Finally into the last week of flower. It's been a long road, but the end is near and I couldn't be more excited. She has definitely bulked up over the last couple of weeks. The trichomes are milky with a few Amber's showing. I am busy flushing. I'm going to put her into 48 hours of darkness before I chop. Wish me luck.

No nutrients will be added till week 2 or possibly 3. Soon as she surpasses her baby leaves I'll start to drip feed 3 times a week. Under 400w hid omega now.

This brings the Journal up to speed. So going to start the 48 hour FLush this upcoming Sunday as well as going to move it to 48 hours of light insted of 48 hours of darkness. Then straight into the Freeze dryer to bring it down to 60% humidity in the bud and then to the curing jars. Going to be Timber 2 days into Week 9 of FLower. 1/20/2023 Week 8 (Day 5)- Flower- Day 107 overall T - 2 days until start 48 hour Flush T - 2 days until Start 48 hours of Light T - 4 days until TIMBER!!! 1/22/2023 Week 8 (Day 7) -FLower- Day 109 Overall Flush Day and 48 hours of Light. I subscibe to Dr. Bruce Bugbee's suggestion that production is under light instead of under darkness so I no longer do 48 hours of Darkness, I go 48 hours of light before Chop, sending my plants on a marathon run before I Cut. Here is Dr. Bruce on basics of lighting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ID9rE5JewVg T-2 days until TIMBER
