📅 D43 - 26/09 📜New res and new light setup (only bloom lights): so T decreased and I need to take under control the H. Changed res with flowering mix. EC is 2 and pH 6. Removed SCroG net. ✍️ 2 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 50 cm 📅 D44 - 27/09 📜 Posed a new SCroG net over the buds, only to give a support and guide the buds. As EC is raising, today I will give her only 2 L of water with only calmag and hydroguard. I purchased another lamp, that will arrive tomorrow with dimmers both on bloom and veg lights ✍️ 2,2 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 55 cm 📅 D45 - 28/09 📜 Added of fresh water as the EC is raising too much. Let see if I've to add more later, trying to take EC under control. pH is quite stable , but it always goes decreasing and never raising. NEw lamp setup: I've purchased one that seems really good with 2 dimmers for both VEG and BLOOM lights. Very compact but powerful. Now I put bloom dimmer on 100% and veg dimmer on 80%. I'm not sure about the light time: the product sheet say 9-12/24 but now I'm 18/24. I will sniff around others diary to see what to do. ✍️ 1,8 EC ♒ 5,9 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 60 cm 📅 D46 - 29/09 📜 Added 1 other L. of fresh water and stabilize the EC 0n 1,5 and pH 6.1 I decided to keep the ligths on 18/24. Nothing else to report ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 65 cm 📅 D47 - 30/09 📜 So far so good. EC and pH are stable now and Lucy is healty and she's growing very fast. ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 65 cm 📅 D48 - 01/10 📜 Added 2 L with EC = 1,4 and pH= 6,1. Now the res is stable on EC 1,6 and pH 6,1. She's drinking about 2 liters and more every day. Tomorow I will report last day of 2nd flowerng week, So the harvest should be in the middle of November. ✍️ 1,6 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9 L 📏 70 cm 📅 D49 - 02/10 📜 Last day of second week. Lucy is growing a lot and my tent is very small. I could consider to buy another tent, we will see. Added 2 L of water with only calmag and Hydro. I will keep the res untile the middle of next week. ✍️ 1,5 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 8 L 📏 75 cm

Three of the four original seeds have sprouted and are growing well. I planted the fifth and last seed as an replacement.

I’m so proud of the transition. I gave them a defoliation during and it didn’t slow them down! They’ve shot their worst pistols now so I’m so glad to be officially in bloom!

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

I topped both plants once thus far, cleared their lower nodes up to the 3rd node on "nemo" and 4th on "v" names are easier then saying seed 1 and seed 4. added pics and video of day 34/35 for these two. hope y'all can stand the slight off hue from grow light. pics/vids are taken on phone camera thru grow room glasses, when watered the 3 gal pots are heavy and not easy to yank out for a picture.

This was a hell of a journey and I leanred so much along the way. Really impressed with the outcome and how forgiving this strain was for a novice grower. The spark that started me on this journey has sure as shit turned into a flame.

Hi guys and welcome to Week 7 As you see, the small plant really suffers and I really dont have no clue anymore whats really up. So she needs to go through like this. Signs of overnutrition cant be possible with the ec the drain has. As mentioned the ph was increased, thats why I flushed, but anyways. Compared to the other two she really doesnt seem to like these circumstances. Next run I really am goint to measure everything three times,lol.......I really dont know what the actual problem is now. Anywys the small plant stretched a bit and gained also a bit of buds. The other two are showing interesting colours. One will turn quite purple, the other seems to develop slight red tones. I am curious when they will really explode and really hope they dont had too much stress with that. Flowering-day19 Update So a few more photos from the plants.......They now start boldening and I am so excited, guess the next two weeks I could just sit by the tent and watch them get unhealthily fat,lol. This for me is the most interesting part of every grow. I always think its amazing how quickly they can develop. And if I must guess I think the purple pheno would take a bit longer than the greener, more indicalike pheno. I really cant wait to see the purple bud cured and taste them......

I continue to struggle with humidity. Most of the time it’s above 30% but sometimes can drop as low as 16. I had many fan leaves die off this week. I trimmed them off. I will be patient as she ripens.

Ended up being my runtz gum x amnesia lemon haze seed I found on kitchen floor. Typical branchy big creamy flowery frosty pheno i got like last times.. I have many fem seeds of this F1. It's nothing interesting in my opinion. This was grown in partial sun and flowered in mostly shade couple hours direct sun only. 🌞

Flush time for this tester , all went well and nutrients worked well , She is now 100% cloudy and about 5% amber on the sugar leaves , So should be ready this coming weekend or the next

If anyone has any advice on how to improve this grow please comment below. thanks for checking out my diary! End of week 3/Day 27: ive been flushing alot before giving nutrients to the plant and it seems to be working, plant health is slowly improving again! Started LST a few nights ago and my plant has lost its christmas tree shape :'D the canopy is more flat and more light is getting to all growth on the plant so im happy! I started giving some rhizotonic near the stem to help with the plant being stressed. it definitely helped make big roots too! So excited to try some buds! another month or so yet :) Day 28 - 20/10/19 LST is amazing! i have almost all the growth getting a decent amount of light! im going to enjoy shaping the plant over the next week or so! Day 31 - 23/10/19 Still doing a light LST, most of the canopy is getting enough light now and the main stem is still growing more nodes. After getting some advice from a grower with the same model of light as me i now know i can hang my light a lot closer to the plants. im going to get rope rachets hooked up in the next week so i can adjust hang height. I also got an indoor chilli starter kit and planted jalapeño, cayenne and habanero seeds in some nice small terra cotta pots :) and i posted a few pictures to show the setup :) just cant wait until the whole tent looks more like a garden hahah :) 12 hours later - Added a video to show progress Day 32: 24/10/19 woke up this morning and the quick one grew upwards out of the LST :) the top has developed and looks more like an industrial weed plant now which is really exciting! ive been following a water schedule and accidentally gave a few more hours of rest to the plants last night and they have stopped drooping more or less. Re-lst'd the plant so all growth is receiving light and measured the space between the plant and grow light. its about 60cm/24Inches away which will do fine. Quick one is 18cm with LST, if i measure the stem itself its about 21-22cm tall - about 9 inches. Other than that the chillis will take up to 2 weeks to germinate, ive been keeping the moisture up around them with a mix of Rhizotonic/Water (1ml/1L) and also sprayed some on the soil as ive found it actually helps seeds germinate quicker with more strength or life in them. Will update soon for week 5 and considering the smoke is so bad in my town you get an urge not to smoke it i am so excited to be near the finish line :) roll on medicine!

05/24 - Both have been transplanted into 5 gallon pots - Both are hooked up to the Vivosun smart drip emitter system - I have introduced three new components to their feeds (Silica,Horti Grow and Kelp) - They have been moved into the 3x3 tent from more room under a bigger light - I have dropped the net on them for maximum light exposure - Running the AC infinity supplement for added light exposure to underneath canopy and mid level grow. 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎 - Check my IG grow family - IG @GREENPHOENIX6262

Flowering

7/1/23 - Day 19 I do water changes weekly. The new weeks start off with a water change. Water changes always scare me, it's the mixing of nutes and balancing the PH. It sounds easy in theory but in practice you want to interfere with the PH asap. But I was able to let the LEAF box empty the water, I filled it up with RO water, LEAF then dosed all my nutes. After that i came in a PH balanced it. (PH balance is something LEAF will be able to do, but there was a bug in the software so instead of having LEAF dose the PH i decided to do it manually for now. The Roots are INSANE! I bet by time I'm done there will be 1+ gallons of water displaced by the roots. I almost started cutting her lower leaves at the base, but I decided to let them grow for a bit. If they grow out some more i will be able to scrogg them and then cut the leaves below after they are trained up a bit. The lights have kicked on and everything looks in order. The plant looks great too, she might be in a small amount of WTF because of all the PH changes but i think the drastic changes were kept to a minimum. She looks happy. As always ill update you tomorrow. 7/3/23 - Day 21- I trimmed some of the lower leaves on the bottom, I'm leaving her bushy still, I won't want to cut any more branches if I can, I need the branches from the bottom to reach the sides of the Scrogg net. In the next couple of days being apple to Scrogg and stretch her while Shes still moldable. 7/5/23 - Day 23 - I added some training lines to some of the branches. I need them to be as spread out as possible going into the Scrogg net. I'm a big fan of not trimming too much as she grows. I don't mind there being some foliage down below. I will cut as needed if it looks like the lower areas are sprouting too much of the little leaves, but for the most part, I let nature do its thing. She's drinking a ton of water now. I am getting my RO water dropped off by the five gal loads. I just got the membrane for my RO150 unit that I plan on having up and running within a couple of weeks so I can start making my own water. 7/6/23 - Day 24 - I added a picture of my RO water setup. It cannot be set up permanently, so this was a great solution. You can see how I was able to tie my branches down, next time I will drill a few holes on the side of the pot. This is a great solution for anyone looking to Scrogg and manage the vertical height. Also, you can see on the top branch there was some pulling, so much so that it started to pull the plant and it created a small lump. All good but just goes to show how pliable these plants are. Looking good and I'm excited for the next couple of weeks! If you are looking for this experience check out https://www.getleaf.co/

Week 3 - Day 15 - She's still looking good, and starting to take off! PHing a little every day and watching her water carefully for signs of algae/cyanobacteria. Things are still looking good, so I think I may have this DWC thing under *some* sort control.

Flowers are still putting on weight. Very frosty and lots of bud.she is still drinking 3.5 liters a day

All good.

I have covered her to force flowering she didn't like it.... brown injuires appeard :/ I removed the bad leaves...

She's filling out nicely and is definitely due for a haircut...she has about 1 more week of stretch and in week 3 we like to do a heavy defoliation (and remove the ties). she's currently sharing the flower tent with (and is 10 days behind)our mystery strain... thanks for reading friends 🐱❤️

I'm very happy with this weeks progress. They transitioned very well to the garden, which I'm chocking up to the row cover. They didn't need any water due to the thunderstorm we had last night, but I did make a ring around the base of each plant and gave them about 1-2 TBSP of the Coast of Maine Stonington Blend fertilizer. They also got their tomato cages.
