Overall, everything seems to be going very well at the moment. The plants are growing faster than ever and the space on the sides is getting cramped. We still have plenty of space for them to stretch, but the upcoming week will probably be the last one in veg before we'll switch to 12/12. The roots of the plants already reached the bottom of their fabric pots. Topping: We decided to top the three largest plants (2x PCK, 1x Gelato). This was only done because we wanted the smaller gelato (top left) to catch up a little. I'm curious how that will work out. If all the plants had been the same size, we probably wouldn't have done it, because the space at the sides is already tight. Lamp distance: As the plants grew, we forgot to adjust the lamp distance until the distance was slightly below 30 cm. The upper leafs are currently looking a little stressed as a result, but it is not too bad. Right now the distance to the lamp is 50cm. Fungus Gnats: We added some sf-nematodes to the soil to get rid of fungus gnats. It is unclear where the gnats came from and it could be completely unrelated to the grow. However, we gave the nematodes to all plants so it does not become a bigger problem.

Day 71 - Starting week 11 and now that I put my Cherry Cookies into 72 hours of darkness, she’s got a ton of room in the tent now. I gave her 2 gallons of water and nutes today and she’s finally starting to develop some trichs. A very small amount right now but they’re finally starting to show a little. Day 72 - Nothing really new going on today. She seems to like having a bit more room in the tent now. She’s doing good on water and should be for another couple of days. I just removed a few lower dead leaves today and tucked everything back down. Day 73 - Nothing really new today, just letting her fatten up and finally starting to get a little bit of frost on her. Gonna need to give her some water and nutes tomorrow. Day 75 - Went just a bit too long before giving her water. Pulled her out today and extremely droopy but gave her a good 2 gallons of water and nutes to hopefully perk her back up. Had a few more dead leaves at the bottom so removed them and I’ll check on her in a few hours to see if she’s perked up at all. Day 76 - Overall she’s looking good and looks like she’s getting a pinkish color forming. It’s also looking like she might have a Cal-Mag deficiency going on so will up the Cal-Mag the next feeding to hopefully help her out. Day 77 - The end of week 11 and she going along nicely still. She’s going to need some water and nutes tomorrow so I’m going to up the Cal-Mag this feeding. Instead of 5ML per gallon, I’m going to up it to 10ML and hopefully that will help her pull through her deficiency she’s got going right now.

First week of Budding went well. Growth was about 4-6in. Hairs appeared in some areas. Trimming some of the big Fan Leaves today to make room for more light toward the bottom of the stock. I wasn't anticipating the plant to get this large I'm running out of room probably should have started budding a week earlier. But we will see how this turns out... Since I saw hairs signaling flowering, I did Start with its first watering with Tiger Bloom.

ITA: come mi avevo pensato le piante stanno crescendo a vista d'occhio, addirittura di diversi cm al giorno (basti guardare come erano solamente due giorni fa). Fortunatamente non dovrei incappare in problemi legati all'eccessiva altezza in quanto manca più di mezzo metro (forse quasi uno) per raggiungere il soffitto della box. Tutte le piante non mostrano segni di stress o carenze, anche se la temperatura della soluzione nelle ultime settimane è cresciuta: sono partito con la soluzione a 20C e ora siamo a circa 25C. Purtroppo la watermelon zkittles è rimasta più piccolina rispetto alle altre 3. Questo può essere stato causato principalmente per due motivi (dal mio punto di vista che non è quello di Kyle Kushman) 1. taglio delle radici 2. eccessivo stress dovuto a un numero di topping troppo elevato con conseguente eccessiva ramificazione di rami troppo sottili per sostenere il peso di una cima densa e compatta. In ogni caso cercherò di salvare il salvabile. Ho eseguito una defogliazione a tutte e 4 le piante in quanto nella settimana e mezza passata la weed ha rimesso tutte le foglie. Ho potato anche le ramificazioni più basse che non prendevano abbastanza luce, almeno fino a dove sono riuscito ad arrivare dato che il mio growbox si apre solamente da un lato e arrivare dal lato opposto è praticamente impossibile almeno che tu non abbia le braccia lunghe 6 metri. Piano piano si stanno iniziando a formare le cime, vedremo come proseguirà la crescita. Si continua a spingere!!😋 ENG: as I thought the plants are growing visibly, even several cm a day (just look at how they were just two days ago). Fortunately, I should not run into problems related to excessive height as there is more than half a meter (perhaps almost one) to reach the ceiling of the box. All the plants show no signs of stress or deficiency, even if the solution temperature has risen in the last few weeks: I started with the solution at 20C and now we are at around 25C. Unfortunately the watermelon zkittles remained smaller than the others 3. This may have been caused mainly for two reasons (from my point of view which is not Kyle Kushman's) 1. root cutting 2. excessive stress due to a number of topping too high resulting in excessive branching of too thin branches to support the weight of a dense and compact bud. In any case I will try to save what can be saved. I performed a defoliation on all 4 plants because in the past week and a half the weed has put back all the leaves. I also pruned the lower branches that didn't get enough light, at least as far as I managed to get as my growbox only opens on one side and getting to the other side is practically impossible unless you have 6 meters long arms. . Little by little the tops are starting to form, we will see how the growth continues. Keep pushing !! 😋

🌱🌞🌱Week4🌱🌞🌱 Bruce is much smaller, LST is almost completely tied to the ground, but looks super healthy. All the side shoots have now been directed and I hope that she will now grow nicely upwards 😅 Sherbet is my queen in this grow so far 🌞 It's just fun to watch the beauty grow. To start the fourth week, I removed some leaves today and directed the shoots in the right direction, otherwise Brucie will soon be completely overgrown 😂 but hopefully it will also have the effect that the good energy of growth will now go in the right direction.... I'll be surprised. Now she looks like a beautiful chandelier 😎

What a journey it has been from seed! I made a lot of mistakes in the first few weeks of this growing journey. I feel like I had a mini-crash after finishing the first year of grad school, and although I am growing cannabis as part of my research project, I haven't been the greatest at paying attention to it. This is not an excuse. It has actually been a learning opportunity. I realized that my body needs proper schedules to function and grow, just like a plant. The problems with the plant have really been my own problems. Let's just say that a plant may be the reflection of the grower. First, the light cycles were wrong and inconsistent. I thought that I could manually control the light schedule for the plants and be alright. However, I was wrong. My sleep schedule has been very inconsistent for the past few months. Mainly because we are living through a pandemic, and secondly because I am a graduate student 😂. How naive was it of me to think that a plant could follow my own rhythms? I guess it highlights my 'plant blindness.' Second, the light intensity was low and PH levels high. In the last five days, I have learned that plants are living organisms (I knew this, but my plant blindness is quick to dismiss it, I need to stop fighting these "plant voices" (signals)) that require a proper environment to grow, similar to humans. Of course, a plant is not human, but it is alive and living. It needs water, a regular schedule (light (active) /darkness (rest), oxygen, nutrients, and an overall good environment to grow. Concern about the size of my plant at five weeks, I decided to conduct a few experiments at home. Here are my notes: Friday, July 23, 2021, I took the plant out of the tent at 6:00 AM and placed it in front of my backyard window that faces the Eastside, perfect for sunrise. On that day, I had a few errands to run, and when I arrived home, it was 2:30 PM. The sun was now hitting the West side of my house, and I had to move the plant in front of my bedroom window. At around 7:00 PM, I went to look at the plant and noticed that its leaves were looking plumpy. So, I decided to take a timelapse to see what I would be able to record. During "magic hour" (sunset), I recorded and witnessed the plant moving with the rhythms of the sun. Plant, like humans, function at their best when they are synchronized with their circadian rhythm. The pandemic has definitely disoriented us to the point that it has disrupted all of our schedules. To this day, I feel tired from everything we have all been through; how could I possibly think that a plant would thrive with such a messed-up schedule? The time lapse made me realize that the plant needs some structure to thrive, and so do I. So, as much as I like to think that I can be disciplined and follow a plant's schedule, I cannot. So, I went to the store and bought the Globe Suite smart plug to automate and schedule the light cycle to 12hrs of light and 6 hours of darkness. Saturday, July 24, 2021, the plant woke up to the set schedule of the lights. I checked on the plant first thing in the morning, around 9:30 AM. The leaves look much greener and thicker than they did the day before. Sunday, July 25, 2021. I was away overnight and did not arrive home until 2 PM. The plant looks twice the size it was on Friday! Today, I will water the plant. I got a PH test kit and realized that the way that I measured the PH level, the first few weeks was wrong 🤦‍♀️🏽. I measured the PH correctly, to 5.9, and added some Reefertilizer grow nutrients to the water. I watered from the top, distributing the water evenly around the stem. My partner pointed to me that the lights seemed dim for the stage of the plant's life. So I had my lights set at 100 watts running at 20 % 😅. I realized that I had not increased the light intensity since the first few weeks of vegetation 🤦‍♀️🏽. So I increased the intensity to 100 watts running at 60%. Monday, July 26, 2021. First check-in 7:00 AM: The plant looks like it loves all of the new changes that I have made! It is finally growing 🤗 The sun is out, but it is not as intense as it should be because tiny particles of smoke are present in our air due to the wildfires, and they create a filter that makes the human eye see the sun blood red. It is quite apocalyptic. Regardless, I decided to take the plant out from the tent and record a time-lapse. It is fascinating how much movement plants have despite showing no noticeable signs of movement (to the human eye). Tuesday, July 27, 2021. It has been five days since I have made big changes to the plant's schedule and environment. The plant is finally showing good signs of growth, and its leaves colours have changed to a deep green. I am not watering the plant today, but I am spritzing it with water. I decided to take another time-lapse of the plant, but this time inside the tent. As I was setting up the tripod for my camera, I accidentally increased the humidifier 🤦‍♀️🏽. Luckily, I noticed within a reasonable timeframe and reduced the humidity and made the environment better. I increased the light intensity to 100 watts at 100%. The plant will stay in the tent all day today because it is raining ☔️.

flowers really packing on weight this week. I've had to tie up supports and stripped off quite a few of the older fan leaves. I've started the flush this week to go with the strain timings. any flush advice would be appreciated.

12 day dry @ 58-63RH & 60-66F in blacked out dry tent | Glass Jar Cure with Inert gas Early taste test and I actually love this bud, is the best in house strain I've grown so far & the second Platinum cross. Flavorful Funky Sweet Orange cream cereal terps, the texture of the bud is buttery smooth, fluffy and pink/orange color when ground up. Bud has deeply potent effects that is IMO the perfect amount of heavy on the body but still euphoric and creative.. it makes you calm and happy! is checking off so many boxes not even cured, just smelling this batch makes a true connoisseur grin and bag appeal is insane

Giorno 74 (14 fioritura) Le piante stanno abbastanza bene. Per il prossimo giro autunno/inverno dovrò stare attento con le temperature perché tra vegetativa e ora inzio fioritura hanno sofferto un po' di basse temperature (nulla di preoccupante ma preferisco avere 23/24° piuttosto che 17/18°). Come detto la settimina scorsa ho dovuto flushare una Pink Gasoline perché tutte le foglie avevano macchie chiare distribuite in modo non uniforme.Ora, dopo dieci litri di acqua con gli ultimi due con una leggera dose di fertilizzanti finalmente i nuovi getti sembrano stare meglio. Tutte le altre piante stanno bene, sta solo a me non dare troppo cibo e monitorare il colore delle foglie per correggere eventuali eccessi/carenze. Non posso fare danni con questi incroci 😃 🙏 A settimana prossima sperando di vedere un po' di resina 😋

18.08.23- 49 дней вегетации ! На данном этапе растение получает питание для вегетации и продолжает растягиваться . Хорошо реагирует на лст и масштабную дефолиацию ) Изредка делаю топпинг рандомных веток . Думаю дать ей еще 2-3 недели роста 22.08.23-очередной сеанс дефолиации и лст как всегда успешно ! Идеально ровный купол растения радует глаз 👁️ сделал flash clean из-за высокого ппм и дал менее концентрированный раствор .

Coming to the end here for both plants. I've been only watering ph water. Watered until runoff for the last time and just watching the trichomes turn now. 10.5 weeks and they seem to be pretty much done.
