Pollen was dropping like crazy as the male flowers got ripe and ready. The females got good and coated and fully pollinated. I harvested the males to collect and preserve the pollen. Some dried and I veiled it up. But the bulk majority is still drying up. I left just the bottom portion of the male kicking for some extra pollen well the females throw off. The diary will now begin to focus on the pollinated females. The journey to beans is well under way! Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

12/13 Week 5 and a big week it will be With all the problems of bad seed, bad rock-wool, and fungus gnats (just to add insult to injury) we still got a grow. All have been treated and top dressed screw those bugs let them eat neem oil and mosquito bits. The big girls in pots are good but the smaller in solo cups were damaged found the source of the critters but may not be able to eliminate it landlord let the roof get a little too leaky, That's ok we got this now. Ok fun stuff: Octo and Plenty will be topped today, its time Pussy is hitting the lower height range where she can be put into Flower. She has hit 16 inches expecting a 100-150% stretch so really want 18" before moving her. Waiting on a harvest there first in a couple of days so should be perfect. Small guys took a big hit from the bugs flushed them with 2.5% h2o2 as a last hurrah for the gnats last night then gave ALL some recharge this AM to give them a bit of help. 12/14 Order of flipping, Pussy (FF7) Plenty (Grn Crk) Octo (LSD) this is based on best guess (guess it is) on stretch Prob dont want the Green Crack (150%) getting too large before moving her, know how that can go 😏 Do want the LSD (100%) pretty good size and the F7(125%) is just ready to go any day. yeah I know wild assed guesses Octo and Plenty are topped and look well, very bushy already Ah screw it moved Pussy into Flower it got crowded in veg and she is 17.75 inches, close enough Solitaire moves in to replace Pussy in the Medicinals... yes its a good one as well. Dont judge... we all did it! Pics Have four different feeds for this grow so will be only tracking Pussy from now on... love this grow Heh The veg tent big girls - 24ml/gal Grow A/B + 2ml/g kanga The veg tent small girls - 10ml/gal " " + 2ml/g kanga The veg tent seedlings - 2ml/L " " +0.5ml/L kanga The sick plants - 1ml/L " " +0.5ml/L kanga Wont change what Pussy gets till tomorrow as she is in for a very long day today. Yep love it Will be working on the roots a while given how those things messed with those. All plants getting some kangaroots affected plants will stay on a low dose, 0.5ml/L till they turn around. !2/16 We have a case of mass survival here folks, the small affected plants are living that should not still be here. Not sure what we will do with em but welcome to the zoo girls. Wife has even managed to turn around a FF2 I was sure was doomed. Yeah she is a keeper Counting chickens perhaps but looks so much better Still dealing with gnats but they no longer dangerous those at least we understand. Each cycle there are fewer CLONE DAY FOR PUSSY! Been looking forward to this have the propagator set up in its own tent we will take up to six clones from her as we may want up to 3 for the grow. Octopussy and Plenty will go into the Flowering tent tomorrow. Chew Mee growing again, looks better Solitaire just looks great Bambi needs transplanting - 2 gal she is sativa The sick germs are turning around finally have them covered to prevent any further nastiness though not think its an issue any longer. See what we get here 12/17 #HisHope has saved another, meet Dink an FFT-2 she will likely stay in a one gallon pot we will see what she does This is particularly notable as she is in rock-wool was like the kiss of death The Medicinals are together in the Flowering tent Plenty and Octo will stay on their veg feed a bit longer. Bloom nuets introduced to Pussy she is stretching very slightly Germs are improving the Gold Leaf and FF8 doing best so far. 12/18 ILGM standing by their word and making good on the Gold Leaf, new pack on its way. Hope one of these will come on up. Clone day for Octopussy and Plenty six from each 12/19 Adjusted feed for the medicinals increasing bloom decreasing grow

Amazing strain!!!! Going good!! 🌳

En esta semana he visto que tengo trips y le he hecho 2 riegos foliar uno con insecticida y el otro con Jabón Potásico y Aceite de Neem

I did a lot of defoliation work this week. Plants look very naked now. 😻 But more light for the buds 😛 = Less leaves = less water (-25%) The plants don't make many few new flowers anymore. Plants have nice fat buds, swelling and getting hard. 💪 Pistils turn brown.

July 20: smoke arrived this morning to go with our heat wave. Awesome. Starting force flowering this evening. Will put plant in dark garage for 12 h darkness for a couple of weeks to initiate flowering. Already started flowering, but I really want to force it along to improve bud quality by having the buds ripen under stronger sun. In dark garage by 9 pm followed by 730 nm far red light and then out at 7 am. The far red light is a bloom booster because it initiates dark mode 2 h faster and is like getting a 26 h day. So, 10 h in garage plus 2 h from far red light is 12 h darkness and 14 h of daylight. Rock on. July 21: obvious stretch from overnight in the hot garage. Recorded as 14 h daylight with overnight temp listed as 24 C but it was easily 30 C when going into garage. Hot and smoky. Anyway, lots of misting and watering and seems to be doing great. Addded bloom nutes in top dressing at end of last week. July 22: still too hot but she’s still managing to grow. Now up to 40”. July 25: now 44” so four inches in three days. July 26: notably large stretch overnight probably grew another inch. This Blueberry Pie was always neck and neck with my other photoperiod, but she is pulling ahead in height now that flowering is starting. So far so good. Windy today and the plant was catching too much. Defoliated fan leaves in the middle so it’s not so much of a sail. Don’t really want o be removing fan leaves, but was best option. In ground or a bigger bag are not options so gotta make it work. Worth it to be able to move around in pursuit of direct sun. #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

Week 8 flushing slowly

Grow diary 11. This grow I'm running 4 diaries, one for each strain in the tent. So my plan is instead of a week being 7 days, my weeks are most likely going to be every 10 days. I think I'm going to take pictures every 5 days so there is a mid week and end week shot. I'm germinating in my propagation tent which is secret jardin dp60. I soaked the seeds in water for 15 hours. The seeds sank so i took that as a good sign. After the seed had soaked for 15 hours I then soaked the rockwool cube for 30 mins in PH 5.8 water with 0.5ml/L hydroguard. Gave the cube a shake and let it drain for 30 mins before placing the seed pointy side down so the top of the seed is level with the cube. Covered seed with a loose bit of rockwool. Placed into propagator with the sunblaster t5 lights on constant. After 71 hours the seed popped TEMP MAX 34.2C AVG 30.1C MIN 25.8C HUMID MAX 86.3% AVG 80.3% MIN 57.2% VPD MAX 2.07 AVG 0.83 MIN 0.64 Hopefully back in 10 days.

Blackberry moonrocks both plants are still some of the best seedling in the tent so far. The better if the 2 is for sure the #1 plant in the tent. It has had the best start of a seedling i have seen in a wile. The leaves are angled like an airplane and they just seem thicker than the average leaf. They both seem like there going to have middium to longer indernode spacing. It's looking like a good start to a week the plants are strong they are getting to the point I can let the dried dry out completely. I'm thinking by the end of this week the plants will be starting to be sold. Last week I put all the plants into my bigger 2x4 tent with my medicgrow mini sun 2 the 500w version. Only a few of the plants were ready for that light. Seems like the only plants that really have good resistance and have a strong start are the weedseedsexpress.com seeds. Shout out to weedseedsexpress.com for the strong plants. I ended up putting all the plants back into my 2x2 tent with the 55w amazon light it has alot more blue light in its spectrum. It's kinda weird b4 I switched the plants to the 2x4 tent they were getting 220umol under my amazon 55w led then when I put them under the 500w light 25% strength about 50in from plants and they were getting only about 195umol in that tent but it was stressing most the plants. I assume a larger light has more side lighting hitting the plants. I think when useing larger lights it's good to measure umols from the top but also coming from the sides. I think durring seedling stage they only need about 50% the umols coming from the side the plants as the top is receiving. When I put the plants back in the small tent about the same umols as they were getting b4 the switch and they were still a little stressed. So for a few days I put the small light at the top the tent giving them 100umols for a few hrs then 130umols the rest the day.

After week 2 the two Barbarian (=AK-47 x Barabara Bud) plants were transplanted into their final container, a plastic pot with 11 liter of soil (light-mix) in it. Now the roots can continue to develop rapidly and the plant growth is amazingly fast. At day 18 the plants are almost 20 cm tall already and look VERY healthy as you can see in the videos.

Woche 7 und die Automatiks gehen in die Blüte. Tropicana Cookies purple Auto, fat Banana Auto und Apple fritter Auto. Die feminisierten wurden nach der 5. Node getoppt und verzweigen jetzt, LST bei den Autos wirkt. Hab die pötte mit Hornspänen (Stickstoff) vorgedüngt, deshalb noch kein Flüssigdünger. Erst, wenn die Blüte oder Mangel kommt. Es läuft ganz gut 👍 bis nächste Woche ✌️

Finally chopped week 10... Flushed for 10 days.... Early/fast grower.... Strong scents and large buds Growing this strain again.... Really happy with overall ease of growth. I expect the taste to be just as strong

Der Stretch geht langsam so richtig los! Sie machen Meter und sind happy :) Am Samstag wurde lollipopping betrieben.

Welcome to my Purple Og Punch DWC diary: Drop a like if you want me to visit your diaries. Either way, thank you for viewing this. Keep up the growing and good luck to all in the Ganja Farmer contest regardless of where you place remember the real prize is the bud you'll get from her. 30/4/22Started both DWC fems off like this. As it's the easiest way atm as I'll have to set the black 1 7L pots on a higher base as the DWC buckets are 33cm off the ground while the 1.7L are 12cm off the ground. Doing it like this will be fine for the 1st wk as the roots don't even reach the end of the net pot until around week 2. I have it sitting in 1mlx3 solution nutes I used are up above all from Terra Power. I haven't decided yet which bucket will be sterile but as there is no root rot to worry about I'm going to be running her on a full compliment of enzymes and everything bactria I can throw at her for the 1st 2 weeks with root stims, maybe I'll carry it on, (the root stims/enzymes/bactria). Just a little tip. Your grow light does not need to be on till she's up showing face. When you put your seeds in to germinate be sure if you have to have your light on try cover the seed that needs to go 3/4 of a CM down. That's means the top of the head of the seed needs to be 3/4cm down. This will help the seed become strong and grow enough tap root as if she's to close to the surface it'll start off poor. As for what I'm going to do because it's DWC it really would be best left alone and lollipop her and let her grow into a monster. As she leans on the larger side I think she'll be best left to bloom with LST, maybe some supercropping. We shall see. I'm thinking as this is a new strain/breeder this will be 1 of few DWC hydroponics. Looking forward to seeing how purple I can get her, hope she's a real punch, pun intended. Don't think I'll have the cold temps to bring out the terps and a nice fade earlier on. Will start her on a very light diet as soon as she shows leafs. I'm in between on giving her a tried and tested brand of nutes. I think I'll run this off on a mix of try pack with some bud enhancers either from Terra Power or Adv Nutrients. Enzymes are yet to be decided. Decided. Going to run this 1 also as a pure enzyme run. I'll be mixing my own guide of enzymes and base nutrients. I'll be using set nutrients but not following there recommended guide lines. As TP says to hokd off on 3 key nutrients that DWC would highly benefit from and be ran in safty as no roots are in the water. Will be running her on FloraDuo grow/bloom renamed Dual Part. Grow/bloom from Terra Aquita aka GEH. And on a full compliment of of terra powers best. 3/5/22 VD1 Have started her on nutrients. I know she hasn't throw her clothes off yet but she'll handle it. EC was set at .5. PH 5.9. RH71% 21C IN dark. Max 24-25 in day with lights on. I run the light throughout the whole night only goes off in the day when room temp is more stable. When they get into pre-mid flower I'll be setting it so they go into the rest in the night when it coldest and will hopefully be able to get the purple to show in this new strain. If not I have a few things in mind to try. Last resort will be buying a chiller for my 70x70, but maybe not until I improve my skills with the tools I have on hand in going to try max out my skills and push my plants till I need extra gear like Co2 system and chillers will be added to my new pro 12 RDWC oxy pot system when I set it up for the winter, (months away) when temps are colder I'll run a full simpler 12 pot linked system with full enzymes. 4/5/22 Great growth from Yday. Very slow to come out of the ground. Actually both strains autos and fems have been lagging behind both other breeders. 100% success so far on germination. Another POGP seed is bound for 100% coco. 6/5/22 So, it's begun. I've created a negative pressure environment, 1st time, let's see if it makes an impact. On wk 3 onwards I'll be running the intake extraction for 5mins every 30mins and I'll have 2 co2 bags up. If the RH becomes a problem or temp I'll put the extraction/intake back on 100% of the time. The extraction fan/intake is set at a ratio of 2 to 1. (100% extraction 50% intake) making a negative pressure environment, best way to show you have done this, the walls in your tent should bow in lightly. Same Day. Okay, so this my last update. Going to run fans the same right up until flower and then I'll be sealing up my tent and adding 2 co2 bags. And will be adding a dehuimifier and setting at 45% And it checks every 30mins and if it's gone up it'll turn back on and bring down to 45 or set RH, so no co2 will escape. The temp will be bordering 30-33c and then when they go into their rest window they'll be transferred to to a negative pressure environment with low temps and 45-50%RH. I'll only be able to do this for the 3 weeks of pre flower. And maybe some more, it depends how hard the dehuimifier will be working, but i want dense buds and only way to improve that is by introducing Co2 and then a negative pressure cold environment for terps. Then I'll be putting them back into full negative pressure environment and the Co2 will be useless, again all depends how it's gonna affect my bottom line. That and I only have 2 intake fans. I'll be going into detail about my Co2 adventures the week before I'll be prepping them to be able to withstand high temps, so I'll gradually bring up the temps the last wk of veg 28c max and that way when I push it to 30-32c in pre flower she won't stress as much Thanks for reading this week, there'll be no more updates just pics for the rest of the week. Then PPM will be adjusted. 9/5/22 So, AFTER going back and forward these past few days and scratching my head as to why my DWC grows are going soooo slow when compared to the soil grows. Then it dawned on me. There only getting a bit of water every time I pour it on the rockwool and trickles down onto the roots beyond the rockwool, the water was meant to be up past the base of the net pot for the 1st 2 weeks until the roots grow down and can drink at their own needs. I wasn't doing that. So last night it clicked. Silly I know. So I brought the water up in the bowl as far as I could and I'm hoping it's high enough that the roots can start to drink from the bowl. gottagrowsometime

Start of week 8 runtz

Day 70 - 23/11/23 Fat Banana progressing nicely! Trichomes are 30% clear, 60% cloudy with some amber heads scattered here and there. I think im gonna flush her today. it's a waiting game now ⏳⌛️

Soddisfatto del mio lavoro? SI ASSOLUTAMENTE SI . Questa è la mia prima esperienza nel campo della coltivazione della cannabis e sono veramente contento del risultato, ma non devo cantare vittoria troppo presto adesso manca la seccatura e la concia speriamo bene ahahah 🤣

Gorilla 🦍 cookies bellissima plant una delle 2 gorilla si è allungata più dell'altra.cmq continuano a dare il meglio di sé.

I hope she’s done stretching because she’s back to being 8” from the light and I need to readjust the way I hung it if I will need to raise to it any further.. she’s drinking about 2 litres a day in total, thirsty bitch, will be increasing frequency to 3 feeds this week. Leaves look lovely, buds getting hairy, trichomes appearing. Now it’s just waiting for her to bulk up over the next month or so. I’m very proud of her structure. Not noticing a smell yet, growers nose, I know she smells. Pothead has taken to pruning very well. Working on her open cup structure, defoliating and getting fed with GP3 veg nutes. She’s a beautiful little mother and she’s enjoying hanging out with the family in the living room under a little qb. She’s exactly as I hoped she’d be. Very grateful this grow is working out for me. We did our crash course in experimenting and dialling in our grow last season and this grow is proving that we learned a lot and it was worthwhile.
