So, guys.. This is her first month blooming. 4 complete weeks has passed. Here we are for 2 more. Gave Her a super powerful egg shell fert (all powdered - Phosforium Whelthy.) 07/10/20 - We are in the middle of week 5. Thats the way they look like. For me a good number of buds and they are as dense as I thought they would be by this time. I think everything is under control despite some foxtails cuz the heat. Loving the experience.

After 7-8 weeks of flower she is ready to harvest. I give an update when she is dry and trimmt. I hope you enjoyed my little grow report. stay healthy

Hey everyone 👍. Unfortunately, a big mistake happened to me. I forgot to do the update weeks ago and have now lost the old pictures 😭, so unfortunately there will be harvest pictures of the leftovers on the whole grow 😥. I can report positives about the strain as far as growing is concerned, but unfortunately not my type of strain that I like. I will definitely try the variety again one day from another supplier :-).

Woche 16 – Vegetation 🌿 | Der letzte Tag vor dem Flip Diese Woche stand ganz im Zeichen der Vorbereitung. Nach dem großen Entlauben letzte Woche durfte sich die Laughing Buddha erst einmal erholen – und genau das hat sie eindrucksvoll getan. Innerhalb weniger Tage hat sie das gesamte Blätterdach wieder geschlossen und dabei ordentlich Höhe gemacht. Im Zeitraffer sieht man besonders gut, wie gleichmäßig sich das SCROG füllt. Die vielen Triebe arbeiten inzwischen als eine einzige, geschlossene Krone – genau das Ziel, das ich von Anfang an verfolgt habe. Auch unter dem Blätterdach hat sich die Arbeit gelohnt. Das kräftige Lollipopping sorgt für eine offene Struktur und einen sauberen Luftstrom. Jetzt kann die Pflanze ihre Energie auf die zukünftigen Colas konzentrieren, anstatt kleine, schattige Triebe zu versorgen. Diese Woche habe ich außerdem begonnen, meine neue Sensortechnik intensiver zu nutzen. Besonders spannend ist die Bodenfeuchte: Die Sensoren zeigen, dass der äußere Wurzelbereich inzwischen deutlich mehr Wasser verbraucht als der Bereich direkt am Stamm. Deshalb teste ich aktuell kleinere, dafür häufigere Wassergaben, um die Bodenfeuchtigkeit möglichst konstant zu halten und den Mikroorganismen optimale Bedingungen zu bieten. Das Dachbodenklima bleibt weiterhin die größte Herausforderung. An warmen Nachmittagen kämpft die Klimaanlage gegen die Sommerhitze, während der Luftbefeuchter versucht, die Luftfeuchtigkeit stabil zu halten. Trotzdem bleibt das Klima insgesamt noch in einem guten Bereich und die Pflanze zeigt keinerlei Anzeichen von Stress. Morgen ist es endlich soweit: Der Wechsel auf 12/12. 🌸 Nach über vier Monaten Vegetationszeit beginnt nun die Blütephase. Das Netz ist gefüllt, die Pflanze ist gesund und kräftig – jetzt darf sie zeigen, was in ihr steckt. Der kommende Stretch wird entscheiden, wie sich die rund 80 Triebspitzen entwickeln und ob der Plan aufgeht. Ich freue mich riesig auf die nächsten Wochen. Jetzt wird aus einem grünen Teppich hoffentlich bald ein Meer aus Blüten. 🍀💚 ⸻ Vielen Dank an alle, die jede Woche vorbeischauen, kommentieren und mich auf dieser Reise begleiten. Euer Feedback motiviert mich jedes Mal aufs Neue. Jetzt beginnt der spannendste Teil des Grows! 😎🌿

Absolutely over the moon with my first attempt really interesting and fun think I have myself a new hobby and grateful for the help from you guys on here ✌️🏻

Day 79 - Added 7 mL of CalMag Micro Grow and Bloom. Added 7 mL of each additive. PPM is 706. Day 81- Using noticeably less water now. Checked PPM 475. In moving the plant to water, a small branch broke. Trichomes are mostly clear. Started to dry it as a tester for rest of the plant. It takes 7 days for me to dry the tester at 70F and 40RH. Not ideal temp but that is how it goes. Day 82 - Might have seen first amber trichs Day 83 - Added 10 mL of Overdrive. PPM is 430. Trichs are mostly cloudy. Hairs are 80% orange. Branches are leaning from the weight. Day 86 - Added 5 mL of CalMag Micro Grow and Bloom. Added 5 mL of each additive. PPM is 588.

Have been practically fizzing this week knowing the end is nigh for lady No1. Ended up giving her an extra day, mainly to prove to myself I could but was up early the next morning resolved to chop. Dismantled her branch by branch but only took the big fan leaves off hoping it will help her dry slowly and ended up with a nice collection of flowers. I’m pretty chuffed to how she has turned out although I know it’s not a massive yeald. Have learned loads though and already planning on what I’m going to change for next time. Thanks to all who’ve shared the benefit of wisdom, the forum has helped immeasurably. Will be back after she’s lost some moisture with a weight check and maybe a cheeky premature smoke report. Thanks gang xx Update: I managed to leave it drying for 13 days in total before taking the scissors to it for the jar. All told weighed in at 33g and as I’m not going to start lying to you now have to admit to being a little disappointed with that. Not sure if my expectations were too high or if it’s because of my novice status ( or more likely both) but still grateful for what I did mange to produce which I have to admit seems decent quality which I believe will only get better with a decent cure. Now just need to stop carrying the jar around like a cradled infant and find somewhere dark and cool for it to rest. X

Looking good. Top dressed 15% worm castings

7/18: I was a little worried about the girls over the weekend because they started drooping and the leaves twisting. I gave them a good feeding of Big Bloom and they've completely bounced back. I switched them over to 12/12 Sunday night and lifted the lights a bit. So far... extremely happy with this grow. Best one yet so far. 😍😍 7/19: The bf did another large defoliation. I'm crying. Buwahhahaha jk... I hate it but of course I know it has to be done. 7/21: Of course my girls have already bounced back like the bf hadn't even touched them. They're doing pretty awesome right now. I'm very happy. I lifted the lights up some but boosted their power SLIGHTLY. Will be alternating Big Bloom, pH'ed water only, Calmag, pH'ed water only Calmag, pH'ed water only, Big Bloom for the duration of flower until a few weeks before harvest then pH'ed water only for flushing purposes before the harvest. 😊😚 7/23: The girls are thriving with my feeding, watering and calmag schedule. I'd attempted to tuck some of the branches again under the net but they aren't having it. They popped themselves right back free lololol 😍👊

welcome to 📅 Day 8 of flower 7/12/2021 they are growing very well and are drinking lots 10 gal a week I'm hoping that they stop the stretch and start to fatted up as I am running out of space lol. next update on thurs till then happy growing and as always keep your stick on the ice 🏒 I would like to say a few words about Mars Hydro. the TS 1000 is a great light and I love the fact that the power supply is capable of being separated from the light and located outside of the tent to keep the heat down. I also like the fact that you can control the light intensity and daisy chain with another light witch is what I plan on doing.

Woche 10 Diese Woche wurde wieder mit Nährstoffen gedüngt da die Pflanze anfangen hellgrün zu werden. Außerdem hab ich in der Mitte der Woche final Canopy Management betrieben indem ich mit Clips und Co paar ausbrecher triebe nach unten gebracht das wieder alles so eben wir möglich ist. #16 (rechts auf den Bildern) ist nennen wir es "Charakter stark" hier habe ich die meisten Triebe nochmal runter biegen müssen damit sie eben bleibt bei ihrer Schwester #8 musste ich bis jetzt am wenigsten anpassen trotzdem sind beide wunderschön auch wenn ich das Scrog im 90x90 Zelt nicht perfekt voll bekommen habe sind wir dennoch bei 90-95%. Tolles Ergebnis für das erste mal Scrog meiner Meinung nach. Mitte der Woche gab es das erste mal PK Booster und ab jetzt gieße ich wieder mit deutlich mehr Regenwasser da ich vermute das die Salz Belastung wieder zu hoch wird in der Erde.

The plant was watered once with 1 litre of water with Bio Enhancer from GHF. I forgot to put the greenhouse lid back on the plant in the middle of the first week and the little one got burnt. Nevertheless, it continues to grow well and recovered very quickly after the cover was put back on. The plant does not yet smell.

All I can say is this girl pretty much took care of herself. Had no real issues till the end when she started foxtailing. I did the best I could to try and lower the temps but it was hot here for a couple weeks. I had read that PE likes it a bit cooler so will definitely grow this girl again but will probably wait until winter where I can control the temps a bit easier. All in all she still provided 345 grams of pretty solid buds. A little bit of fluffy stuff but most were pretty solid.

Sept 25th a.m. - fed ea. Congo and Natural Mystic 1/2 volume H2o/ Molasses mix; C 2.75L / NM 2.5L - fresh LST where needed - light survey showed an imbalance with taller autoflower in the mix. It was LST’d into a lower profile and moved deeper into the corner. Light distance for the Congo etc is now dialed-in after a bit of a shuffle. *** reminder Oct 8 is Lights-Out *** 36 hrs of darkness 26th - followed-up on yesterdays LST and put some actual direction on the Nat Mystic Branches. Its a tightly spaced unit but the branches are getting into some open air now. Look-out for what happens next 27th, - everything looks great this morning. Big feeds tonight if soil allows; 6.5L congo / 6L NM ** topping observation ** In an effort to produce a 16 cola plant using Topping methods, i am in the middle of a side by side topping experiment, and it does look like one method, Does has an advantage over the other! Waiting for each branch to grow past its first Node, and then produce a second Node, this will be the place to top, once the plant grows Past this 2nd node, on each branch. What results is that you only snip each branch Once, after the original Topping. 5 snips will produce 16 Tops. Allow each branch to grow past the 2nd node, then Top. It will produce 4 nodes naturally on each branch. Better overall spacing/symmetry The other significant feature of this response, is that the Durban Poison was a full week behind the Congo & N.M., and it has caught-up and Passed the progress of the natural mystic. Both of these plants (congo/nm) used the extra topping on the upper branch, and its required longer periods for the 4 bud-sites to develop per branch and extend away from the plant. It required more delicate fiddling than the (d)Urban Poison. **** - short video of the Tent uploaded this morning - no feed tonight, too moist 29th a.m. - soil said Go this morning; 6.5L h2o/nutes for the congo & 6L for the natural mystic - Collected details from N.M. & Congo run-off - pulled Northern Light express auto from the tent and replaced her with a 3.5 week old Green Mountain Grape. Move was done to help acclimatize to the cmh lite, ahead of Flower BONUS, you can actually see a bit of a droop on the Congo leaves… this mornings feed was 2 days overdue; the pot was actually lite & confirmed for me the condition of the soil is OK and not waterlogged. Pushed her a little bit towards a Drier Bottom since her last feed. Nice to see that as I crank it up - GMG has been super-cropped on the 28th, to help establish an even canopy - Slip, Snap, lost a Cola. Even though it was the runt, its gonna be missed 30th - OK, did a little homework last nite and the timing could not be better for me, with regards to Flushing 3 plants, ahead of the move into Flower. This stems from capturing some of the run-off after a bigger feed. What resulted is I found a high EC value on the Natural Mystic (3200) that indicates a build-up of Salts in the soil. The Volume 33% says its a bit much… i have been aggressive in my nutrient values but its been incremental. Regardless N.M. gets a quick bath to flush out this bit o History. Congo had less liquid come through but was still an elevated value (EC 2300) and will receive a Flush as well. ((d)URBAN POISON barely had any liquid come out. It will be flushed as well. Call it a tune-up, I’m in. * should anybody see something from those results that I’m missing or misinterpreted… Id be happy to hear about it. Please & Thanks pH probably has something to do with it too, but I don't care right now Effluent details: -Nat Myst released 2L out the bottom after being fed 6L : I’m going to reduce the volume of Water & Nutes fed, targeting 15% run-off. (5L next feed) -Congo released 600ml after 6.5L was fed; Which is a reasonable amount in active use; close to 10% - with height a constant issue in a tent, in my basement… i’m super happy with how low this whole grow has stayed through Veg. Kinda shocked actually… pic #23 - flushed Natural Mystic w/ 20 gallons water - (the little kids pool that I inflate, to flush-in… of course, sprouted a whole shitload of leaks in the Bottom when I was about 18 gallons in. And Yeh, the discharge hose on my electric pump DID COME OUT OF THE SINK DRAIN, 2x. I had water everywhere lol. Actually out in the garage taking care of things right now) Oct 1 - last day week 7 - re-applied the pins holding Nat Mystic in place. She is damp, Healthier & Hungry soon; target = 2 Meals b4 Lights-out. With Congo flush 100% happening… both Meal volumes tbd - been a busy week & things are about to change again. Learnings impact all the different grows. I’ve never flushed Mid-grow; and I’m liking-it !

Hello. I'm a Georgian grower and I would like to share my new interesting project details with you. Through Georgian growshops' sponsorship - @GrowGrow @seedspaceshop I've built up two exactly same growboxes with totally same temperature and humidity in it. We will compare led blaker 1200 to sodium (600W). Seed - Caucasian Amirani fem. Soil- TopCrop complete mix. Nutrients- Top Crop Mix. I'll provide reports for whole period. #growgrow #topcrop #seedspace
