2/8 Preflowers appeared on the GG and BC. The only one not on the Preflowers train is the GSC but she is 10 days behind the others. Branches on all plants are solid and sturdy, humidity has been an issue and I am working on it. 2/9 raised lights another inch and GSC now has Preflowers 2/10 TB and BC must of took their roids last night cause each grew 3.5 to 4" over night. More Preflowers and budding sites appearing on all plantd. Stretch is coming the stretch is coming. Raise lights 4" and lifted up GG 2 inches. All plants avg 40k on lux meter. Rotating plants everyday now. 2/13 everybody is exploding upwards. I was focusing a lot of time on my other grow and I am pretty sure I missed my LST window with these ladies. My 4x4 tent is filling up rapidly. Had to raise my lights up another 3 inches with distance ranging from 12 to 18" from all tops. Just going to take group shots until pistols start appearing. Probably going to switch over to HPS over the weekend

2/14 TB is stretching like crazy and BC is keeping up with her. Flowers present on BC and TB. Switching to HPS tomorrow right before lights on. Raised lights another 3". Going to need a higher riser for GG. GG is looking fantactic. She has a natural even canopy growing. The mutation appears to have been one for the better. Should get 3 good size Colas from her. Contemplating adding some t5s along the sides. At this point I'm very glad I only had 4 of 5 beans sprout. Not much room in here for another plant and I am trying to keep them as spaced apart to maximize air flow around and through the plants. I admit, I totally f'd up in planting this garden in this location. I have no space in any climate controlled area that I can move this grow into. Once summer is here it will be much better and the humidity will subside and the temps will hang in the mid 70s at night. Thankfully the TB and BC are very resilient to molded and recommended for cold humid grow areas, the GG and GSC are unproven yet as to their mold resistance. I keep my eyes on them and not a day goes by without a thorough mold and pest check. 2/15 Found a 50 pint dehumidifier on "Letgo" and going to pick it up later today. Just gonna plop it in the tent and see what happens. Update, will pick up dehumi either tomorrow or Friday, seller had a schedule change. Swapped bulbs and everyone is flowering away now. 2/16 got my new set of blumats soaking overnight, going to install to feed on demand during flowering, and this isn't my first rodeo with blumats and aware of their quirks but the benefits are amazing. The BC became one thirsty lady and is consuming 2/3 gallon of water per day. I somehow forgot to feed them last night during my routine and they were a little bit parched when the lights came on today as evidenced in my pics. All plants are stretching about 1.5 to 2" per day right now. -gave first feeding with cannaboost today 2/17 installed blumats. The Dinafem Blue Cheese (bc) is growing into a monster. Budding sites seem fairly large. I've got a feeling she's going to be a heavy producer. 2/18 replacing my generic hood. Going to pick up 6" sun systems block party. Found a new one on Craigslist for $50. Driv8ng to get it now. No photo updates until Monday. Have a lot going on this weekend. 2/20 blockbuster installed and probably best 50 I've spent a a while. If you can pick one up at a good prive, highly recommend for 4x4 tent

3/29 GG and BC are on flush, should run about a week. TB is about 50% cloudy trichs and GSC is 95% clear 3/30 mother nature is testing me. We've had temp swings from the 80s to the 50s and humidity swings from 76 to 21%. I can not isolate the elements from this grow and I have been spending hours with a headlamp and hps glasses scowering for mildew and bugs. I very carefully treated the plants with a 1:9 milk/water spray as a preventative since I have discovered wpm out in the yard 3/31 BC is yellowing out and probably chop her down in 24 to 48 hrs. My dumbass broke one of her lower branches so I trimmed it up and hung it in the drying closet. She definately took on the berry scented pheno. Upon close inspection of the trichs, I hope I didnt rush to flush. My handheld looked cloudy but under the digital on a stand I'm not entirely sure. 4/2 BC has been cut down. Will post harvest report once dried

No complaints, no problems other than our current heat wave. Watering three times today's vs normal 2. Tricomes looking like they're getting real milky. I'd say two more weeks. FYI growdiaries says im on week 9 but by my count I'm in week 8f - 56 days. I'm thinking at least two more weeks based on tricomes. Starting to get milky buts nearly zero amber.

The heat had me nervous this week but they made it out without a hitch. Didn't do much at all this week with these ladies just watered twice. Second watering added a little fish bone meal, molasses, aloe Vera, and algae to the water to fuel those microbes...

3/14 Random hot day here, lights on temps ran upto 88 for about a half hour, when I got here I increased fan speed and got temps stabilized at 78. Thankfully I run lights on at night. 3/15 Flushed and hand fed plants tonight mold and hermie check complete. TB and BC really started to fatten up. Used 16oz can to illustrate current growth. (label hidden, not intentionally trying to advertise, can remove pics if not in compliance) 3/19 GSC cola starting to fatten up, some of the hairs on all but GSC are starting to yellow. 3/20 BC main cola is 75% cloudy, no signs of ambers. Breeder says 10 weeks cumulative life span but i think she will run 80 to 90. TB still a lot of clear probably 85 to 95 days, GG is a wild card sue to her structure, and GSC buds aee swelling. Cold damp weather ahead. Carefullysprayed leaves only down with sm90 as preventative measure. Tomorrow starts week 11

1/30 backed a&b down to 9ml each and added first dose of pk 13/14 @ 4ml. Ppm clocked in @ 900. Reminder, these ladies are on constant drip feeding via troph blumats. They drip non stop and rarely is there any runoff and the media never dries out. I do flush with florakleen about every 2 weeks. Verticle growth ceased all plants. Airpots have been fully penetrated all around from top to bottom, roots are bright white and healthy. 2/1 finally recieved extension and raised lights up. No evidence of burn but it was a little too close 2/2 ordered high CFM kit for the gorilla tent. Walls sucked in much further and intruding on space. 2/3 spoke with the person I acquired the LS clone from and found out he grew it from DNA Genetics seed

Hi there!😎 This is last veg week. My little girl is small and bushy with at least 4 promising side branches beyond the top one. Other branches still in development. She reacted very well to last week feed and now the leaves have much better color. Expecting some stretch and the first signs of flowers for the next days. I can already fell that delicious gorilla glue smell everybody talks about.😌 Stay tuned!👊

Plants have responded really well to the drier air...the dehumidifier has transformed them a lot...they were going a pale green as i assume they were intaking moisture through the air rather than the roots with nutrients...they have started to go a nicer green and really putting on some growth now... Some of the stems are going purple, not sure if this is genetics or due to slightly colder lights off temps...the tent drops to 19/20°C when the lights are off...not sure if this is too cold from the 29/30°C on lights on...

Day 18 and they're finally starting to grow, leaves started to yellow on day 14 so I gave a light feed on day 15, and again today on day 18. new growth still has purple stems so I may add more cal mag next feed Day 20 and they're really starting to green up on top, I think i waited too long to give them their first feed, I'll start on day 7 next crop. PH of feed was 5.9 and ppms were 364 feeding every other day

Slowly dropping the ph down to 5.8, I can tell I stunted the growth just a tiny bit. But I checked the bottom of the cups on day 10 and I saw some root heads poking out the holes on the bottom, so the roots are growing atleast👍 Day 14 today is the last day I will be giving them water only, next watering will have cal mag and GH nutrients and silicate. Runoff was 5.9 ph, so im finally in the sweet spot

Day 29 and I'm switching to transition nutrient ratios, transplanted into 1 gallon pots on day 28. I'll be back on day 34 for another update. I'm excited to see what these plant are going to yield being in such small containers Day 34 and they have really stretched! Anyone have any tips on helping an iron deficiency? My og kush being a little sensitive

GENERAL COMMENT. WEEK 4 OF FLOWER. The week ran smooth, girls keep on growing well, my soil is becoming a bit compact, i usually use clay pellets mixed but this time i when straight with the soilless mixture, 50% Mosses and 50%p Perlite, with no organic correction so is inert, a pro is that you don’t see bugs such as gnats, till now. For the moment @B4RNS gave a nice idea on how to improve the aeration by using a knitting needle, to poke the soil, and that was easy to do, with minimal damage. Is a regular plastic pointy stick. Had putted up the lamp to around 40cm from the canopy. EC continues at 3.1, and added overdrive to the feed, lowered the B-52. Cal mag more diluted 1ml/l one time a week only. STRESS KILLER COMMENT. All good and easy, super strong, getting nice and fat, and this week she started to produce some trichomes, yummy! Smell is very citrus oriented, and enjoyable, super fruity with a touch of acid. Would like to super crop the top but as she is doing her thing very nice decided to keep that way as the NL also has a upper canopy and the lamp is one wouldn’t t do much.

GENERAL COMMENT. So guys this week ran ok, i’m trying to pay attention to some details, like water temp, as the weather is cold here. The LED had a problem in one vent, so i repaired it, is nicely built inside but all the wires are tight and locked with this plastic lockers, so to have room to work you have to first take some of them out, impossible to find the vent attach, so i cutter the wire and made a connection for the new vent, avoiding to hunt the cable source and a nightmare of taking everything apart… A bit of pressure because i couldn’t screw up and loose the LED, to buy a new one would take up to 60 days… EC is at 3.1, .1 higher than i should be, pushing them a bit, can see a tip yellowing and a super slight tip burn, so my interpretation is that i have to reduce the nutes dosage a bit. Runoff is at 5.8-5.9, watering at 6.2-6.3 pin pointing at that range, no deficiencies are showing at the time. 2.5l every 1-2 days, when water only, i give 5l each to manage salt build up on the medium then it takes longer to dry out. Cal mag supp once a week, with water only, 2ml/l. They will be off this week to manage the progression of overfert. 
STRESS KILLER AUTOMATIC COMMENT. 
 She became a real bush, and is in full flower, around 53cm now, super dense, and light penetration is hard, keeping on the leaves tucking and going natural yet, no defoliation, pruning or lollipop-ping. She is a joy to grow and smells very citrus, smell is not pungent though, also comparing to my last grow… My hole house was smelling like ganja at the time, lol! Less flower spots than the NL but still lets see how dense they will get.

GENERAL COMMENT. WEEK 5 OF FLOWER. Ok guys, this week ran ok for one girl and less for her sister, so i will go on details individually. RQS STRESS KILLER AUTOMATIC COMMENT. Beautiful girl getting bigger everyday, i’m very satisfied overall, she is fast and have lots of terpenes, and started heavy resin production. Super strong, absolutely no issue at all for now. I’m imagining to start flushing this week or the next will decide this days to come, but this grow will be max 12 weeks. Not reading the runoff on this girl as everything is just amazing. Maybe will backbuild some colas to compare. EC at 2.2, released a lot of N now, but still did a good feeding, it might be the last, or max one more before the flush. Will be flushing with flawless finish in the last week.
