Some issues started to appear on the top leaves. I think this might be the CalMag problem everybody complains about sooner or later. Changed the water on the last day of this week and doubled the amount of CalMag supplement. Also I had to tie some of the lower branches up so they don't lean against the tent. Will definitely have to come up with something to keep the plants from falling over for the next run.

Well I must be doing things right, for an auto this girl is doing really well. I’m still learning but will be growing more Bruce Banner. I’d soon rather have sativa but takes so much longer to grow. She takes all the nutrients I give and drinking more water this week, had to top her up a few times. PH is 6.4 TDS is right around 1000 Temp is 20c Humidity is 60-70

16 days transplant to 3.5 gal Dutch bucket with perlite. Auto watered every 6 hrs with newts ppm 680 we will get some burn. It will be ok. Should be mild but strain depending. We She all see who gets upset. They are now in the Greenhouse. So it's up to the Sun and 2 - 1000 watt HPS ( for supplemental light ). Grab a chair and hold on. Don't forget the popcorn.

Place your seat backs and try tables in their upright and locked position Mexican Airlines is prepared for take off!!!👍 She's bursting at the seams and in pre-flowering stretch (does pre-flowering count as flowering or vegetation?). Gave her some recharge over the weekend and she LOVED it, major growth within 24 hours. I'm doing my first LST with her and not really sure what I am doing, but it looks good to me. Feel free to comment with any suggestions.

Starting to see some real good growth. Everyone is looking real gree. I think next week calls for a session of LST. Still only using water with BioTabs. Not issues. Tenet is pretty hot at 27C and dry at 27%rh... Ruff but it's what I got

2 Gran Jefa au 53ème jour de floraison. 45G de bourgeons sec et effeuillés J'ai commis des erreurs durant cette culture et je n'avais malheureusement pas la possibilité de m'en occuper comme je le voulais. Je vous suggère de ne pas reproduire mon dosage pour les nutriments(+serait mieux) et ma fréquences d'arrosage(moins d'eau et + souvent serait mieux). Je compte modifier certaines choses pour ma prochaines culture en espérant améliorer le rendement 👌 Merci pour votre visite les amis 💪

Opened the tent this morning to be hit in the face with some strong dank smelling bud, it's moreso the plant that's a week or two behind at the back The purple plant tho has a mundane flowery smell rather than a gassy one. Added some explode and A+B bloom (dutch pro) this will be last and only feeding of nutes as I feel like big purps will be ready for the flush in a week or two after that feeding. Asides from that everything is stacking up nicely, little to no deficiencies thankfully ( growing in compost) my first run was in Coco and that was a nightmare checking and regulating EC and ppm every feeding. I'm glad I moved from the Coco as it's just a pain in the ass.

So far so good, growing like weeds the last few days, go figure! Lol. Gotta love when the roots really take hold and your plants start barfing new growth every day. 😁

Alright I've updated this postmortem and cure just to give an idea of what I was up to during the dry and cure weeks. This grow was a ton of work and I'm very please with the results. I learned a ton about soil and environment control and really feel like I'm gaining confidence and coming into my own as a cultivator. I've been playing a lot with ice water hash and rosin and have set some neat goals for the future like hunting ice water hash cultivars, going perpetual and expanding the amount of canopy I can work with by building a network of remote-operated satellite flower tents in friends' and family's abodes . I'm not sure I'll go through all this effort of documentation here again, but please follow along on my instagram, stay in touch and chill out with me sometime @Fullmeltalchemist.00 All in all, I was running 1000w of quantum board across three tents and pulled just over 1100 grams, which was a big goal of mine. Thanks for all the advice and love growmies! And thanks growdiaries for the platform. It's been coo.

Mother Fucker, Had all this typed out and it fucking closed the tab and would not load last edit. Lets try this again. This has been a big week, got a transplant in and ran into some issues with the feed. Transplanted the plants from their 1L to 2Gal/7.5L pots and gave them some LST to keep em low, all went well in transplant process as seen in the video however the Gaia Green burned my plants and this is odd considering I did not use it full strength as per their directions. They recommend amending medium for pots and baskets at a rate of 3tbsp or 45ml per Gal and I used it at a rate of 60ml in 2Gal, not even close to their 90ml recommendation. Seems weird why I would be experiencing this. I reached out to them and have not heard anything back. kinda disappointed about that. I have two batches of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and when I ran a test side by side on them I found the old one I am currently useing has a higher EC value then the new one I got. I dissolved 1/4 teaspoon into 250ml of water and gave it a good stir, I then let it sit for 5 min and measured its PH and EC, I also tested out the Insect Frass from them as well and it was similar numbers to the new 4-4-4 batch. I got readings of 0.98 for new 4-4-4 and 1.43EC for the old batch of 4-4-4. Seems off. I also tested all the other things I added into the soil and they did not spike EC to any significance. I'm hoping they reach back out to let me know whats up. PH was on point and nothing crazy all aorund 7.1 I also tested the PH and EC of the watering solution to confirm it was the 4-4-4, added in some yucca in their as well as other beneficials that I normally do in soil grows. all within range, PH down with Phspohric Acid and EC under 300 A+ In other good news I finalized the PPFD maps for my tent and lights, I use 2x 240w Mini Sun 2's from Medic Grow, They don't normally use the lights in a twin setup in 2x4 tent so thus they had no light maps for me. The grow shop I go to lent me their Quantum Par light meter and I went to town, I demoed this unit last week in a little video and then went onto say how I messed up the readings and needed to redo it all. Well I had to have the meter returned and was working all week so only had time to get one height measurement in at 30" with all the intensities of the light 40-60-80-100% I had a feeling I was over blasting them with light but the amount I was thinking was not even close to how much more I was giving them. I was running my plants before at 80% and maybe 20" hang height. I was nuking them. It shows my ideals are going to be 40% in veg and 60% in flower with altered lighting schedules to accommodate a proper DLI. As of right now I am giving my plants 42 DLI in veg at 18/6 and that's a bit much for me. I would like to see this number closer to 35. So if I edit my schedule down to 16/8 it will give me a DLI of 37, when I got into bloom if I go 11/13 I will also get a DLI of 37. If I kept it at 12/12 at 60% I would have a DLI of 41, and If i did it like last time 12/12 at 80% I would have a DLI of 55... 41 is not the worst but I think it might be to much. we will see based on how the plants are growing. I used a free heatmap web page tool to make the PPFD maps, its not perfect but it works out well for me. I did all the intensities on their own image and also did one main image with all the intensities that shows the strength of 100% vs 40-60-80% in colour. The one light on the right side does not seem to be as strong as the one on the left, Or it could be some weird things with my tent, When I looked at the numbers with the door open they did not fluctuate as much. so who knows, I tested them with the door closed and extractor fan on as that's what the plants will be getting when in the tent, I centred the light as best I could and levelled it out with a bubble leveller. It was funny seeing how the PPF readout numbers changed as the tent sucked in around the sides, It is a good thing I have the mid support bar to prevent it from doing that to much. Once I mapped out all my readings in PPF I then calculated its average and PPFD using the grow space dimensions of 2x4, applied the convention and got my average PPFD :) The pepper are also doing well. I don't think I noticed a difference between soaking the seeds with some peroxide 1% vs plan water. Won't do that again does not seem to help anything. All but one variety as popped, the naga morich, has not been germinated, I was reading online that dehydrated seeds can have as low as 5% germination rate, With this in mind I took a lot of seeds from my older naga morich peppers in the pantry and placed them in a damp paper towel. I have a feeling given their age and treatment previously they will not pop, but that's ok if they don't, I have a large assortment of pepper for this season and they are already well on their way to giving me a good crop. Have not noticed any other fungus gnats in a bit. Happy about that, don't know where they went, unless it was just a few and they died before breeding. One can hope, Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.

Fattening and stacking! That’s what’s up 😎🔥 The girls are doing well, no issues other than the tip burn (went a little hard on the nutes then dialed it back) I was very busy this week and had minimal time for the garden, the automation is key for success! I really should look into an auto water system to complete the process, but I love the time I spend and watering is one of those times you can get up close and personal and really view your plant and how it is doing from top to bottom. Only about 3 weeks left give or take, I can’t wait. The terps coming from these plants have kicked it up a notch and are intense! Like walking through a pine forest… that also has weed growing 👃🤤🌲, lol. Started with the Bud Candy from Advanced nutrients for the Mag/Sulphur and to help with the terpenes and fattening. I had impressive results with my last GG Autoflower using this product in the last 3 weeks, hopefully we can get a similar result. 🤞
