This week I topped each main cola at the 3rd node as usual and performed a selective defoliation to improve light penetration and airflow. From now on, I won’t be doing any more apical cuts. In a few days, I plan to introduce a scrog net to start guiding the branches and prepare for an even canopy 🌿💪

Seguimos el seguimiento de las pequeñas nenas! la verdad que es increible el tamaño que vienen agarrando, los olores que se están sintiendo, y lo compacto que están los cogollos! WonderPie viene un poco más avanzada que la MacNZkittlez pero eso lo veremos, recien empezamos semana 7 y pretendo seguir hasta la 9na. Saludoss!

Week 4 seemed a bit slow at first, but i also realised that I wasn't treating coco appropriately, I should feed nutrients every time I water and control the ph and ppm better. By the end of week 4 I got a water quality tester and am now able to properly take my ph down and monitor ppm so my plants don't get nutrient burned, but still gets enough nutrients in time. I also allowed good amount of the top layer of my coco to dry because I mixed up advice that received about soil and coco together. Apparently coco has no issues with overwatering unless your pots have no drainage so in the last 2 days I started treating coco the way it's supposed to be treated, I also finally got calmag and my plants are showing good signs of health past 3 days, they look revitalised and happy again 😊 Unfortunately, apple fritter was way too sick for me to continue with it so I restarted it in a proper coco and perlite mix that's non fertilised, that's a separate diary because its a whole month later. I decided not to train the first 2 plants just to see how the natural process is supposed to go.

In my growing experience I always had bigger harvests with mostly indica hybrids than with sativa ones and I think this is mostly common, I was much curious about this strain in the auto flowering version, since the DNA genetics photoperiod seeds are still not re-assorted, Fastbuds did a good job, the smoking is fruity and woody with strong high, even if I prefer the taste and the indica high of their other Strawberry, the Pie, thanks Fastbuds and thanks to all who growers who looked at the growing 🙏🏻💚 it’s toking time now 🔥

I'm sorry, but at the time I stopped updating the diaries because I moved to a new house and changed my routines. I'll leave a photo of the final product here, but don't worry, I'll be back at full speed. 🚀🚀 new diaries coming 🔜🔜

My Sticky Rice plant is still on the smaller side, but it's got a really strong smell, and I love the look of its leaves. It's been a challenging week with the constant rain and ridiculously high humidity. Keeping things dry indoors has been a real struggle. Despite the weather, I managed to flip all my feminized photoperiod plants to flower this week. I'm hoping the switch will go smoothly, but with this humidity, it's going to be tough.

Dopo circa sei giorni a 12 ore di luce, le parti apicali delle diramazioni hanno iniziato a cambiare forma e a breve appariranno i primi peletti, molto compatte e piene di rami, in ottima salute promettono grandi emozioni! Tra una settimana inizio a rimuovere le foglie più grandi di sotto in modo da fare arrivare più luce.

Hello. This is the end of week 8 and the beginning of week 9 of flowering. Although the seed description said 10 to 11 weeks, I going to cut these girls down at 10 weeks. I need the room to grow and flower some Mac and Crack that's already growing.. Getting close to harvest I'll start flushing, But I'll give them 1 more feeding and then nothing but water till the end. I get much better taste and the buds smoke better if I flush and get the chemicals out of the soil before harvest. Well, that's the end of the Freak Bros. book # 10... I think there are 3 or 4 more books left in that series. I'll show them in future diaries. My other diaries have the old underground comic book, Weirdo by Robert Crumb if you want to check them out to see. The buds are really getting solid now and some are getting heavy and heading for the floor. Good times... Getting some great smells now. Musk is the most common. But some, smell of Citrus with Musk under tones. The smell is overpowering my carbon filter. I can smell these plants out by the street if the wind is blowing that way. Pure Lemon Skunk smell by the street. Nice. Getting near the end of their lives now and there are more yellow leaves as the plants pull what they need from the big fan leaves before turning the leaves brown. Some plants have sticky resin and some have slippery resin. OK. Have Fun. Chuck.

In the short video you can see that the plant 4 is not so far behind. Otherwise the ladies are all beautifully growing. The lush green leaves testify to healthy growth. Day 58: Main-lining for plant 4 and a lil bit of defoliation. Day 59: After thinking for a long time how I can enable all plants to use the same distance to the lamp. I decided to use a scrog-net. Then attached this in my tent and pulled it down almost to the topping point. I carefully tied the shoots under the net. So the light can shine through to the ground again and reach all shoots to give them the energy they need to grow. I think in one or two weeks I will switch the plants to bloom. Day 63: The last day of the ninth week shows a beautiful green sea. All of them have a rich green color without any signs of deficiency or signs of over-fertilization. Plant 4 continues to grow, I think she like the main lining.

Very easy to grow, I did not have any problems in any of the stages of both growth and blooming, good yield facility, great to start the advice.

2/2 We are about half way on the 2 biggest, 3 weeks on the SG, and about 6 weeks on the Blue cheese. Damn... You can see how much I lose on the bottom half, but like I said before. It will still be more than I can smoke. And I want to make sure it all gets enough light to ripen and allow plenty of airflow. The only issues in really having is the godberry seems to be premature yellowing, but I still think it's from the light stress early on. She also looks a bit like nute burn. Yeh .. that's probably the fish emulsion I gave it 2 weeks ago when I misread the light stress. Sometimes it's best to stop and think before you do something stupid. I always have at least one plant that goes yellow too soon. Living soil. But I don't think the soil is lacking. I've never dealt with light stress before so it's kinda fucking with my head. But it's all at the top, as you go deeper they get greener. The deep purple stems across 2 different strains was from the light too. I've seen that before but it's been a long time. 2/3 My Blue Cheese is about week 6ish. I lose track temporarily because of how that plant came about. It was started 1 week after the others had already been in the ground. And then she started to flower after only 2 weeks. She popped up on 12/6, the others popped up on 11/30. I can tell by the way she feels she ain't even close. Flowers are nice but there is no density. Theeaves are so frosty they remind me of sage a bit. I did a bit of work on her. Mostly just tied the tops together so she wasn't so sprawled out commandeering an entire 1/4 of the tent. The 2 biggest are really becoming pretty and the ChocoLope is acting like she wants to start showing some color! Trying to keep it cool at night but below 70 and I start having trouble keeping gt VPD up. Strawberry gorilla is plumping up slowly. She didnt start till about 3 weeks ago. So as soon as I move out the Blue Cheese, I'll see if I can give her a bit more light. May have to harvest the BCA in 2 goes. Should have left her tied down, or I should have super cropped that long ass cola bud. If I'm being honest, I just didn't want to hinge that beautiful top. Well .. next time. I plan on growing this beautiful strain a few more times. 2/4 Its always something.. it's a good thing I love growing because if I didn't, this would be a lot of work. So there is some kind of issue with my SIP. The bottom 3" of the pots are getting soggy and the plants are barely drinking for days. The pots are heavy AF so something is a miss. I pulled out the wicks to allow them to dry back a bit. Then I'm going to try to connect them again. So this is where I have to back track and think about what has been different lately... Normally I use frozen water bottles to keep the water under 70° as much as possible. I let it sit at 75 for 2 days and that's when I noticed they stopped drinking and the connection is all sloppy. Could that be it? I recently broke down the reservoir and refilled it... Could that be it? I also moved the wicks out to the widest holes so they touch more of the pot than they did before... That might be it... I am a bit ashamed to admit it but I actually consulted AI about this. It says it could be any of those things, and I need to totally drain the res after the dry back. Something about the air gap is saturated. Well..... I'm gonna dry em back, and treat it like a fresh install. I'll stay on the old holes where I was before. And I'll keep the rezzy cool. 2/5 Ok.. so 24 hours was good for all except the blue cheese. She was still a bit too heavy to reconnect. I'm keeping the wicks out for 48 and the reassess. I tried to keep it exactly how I had it in the beginning. The BCA is close... Closer than I realized. Two, maybe 3 more weeks and she gets the chop.. but this time I'm going to practice a bit more patience. I remember the last time I grew it I told my roommate that it would connect all the way up the cola. It never actually did. It tis time.. you have to look for stem. This plant is literally ALL BUD! I love this strain.. 2/7 Strawberry gorilla at about 3 weeks flower. Startig to fill out. New pics. Blue cheese is almost done. Calyxes getting plump!! Choco lope pheno #1 is starting to take on rally dark sugar leaves. And the God Berry is a bit too. All but the blue cheese are still connected and SIP is not hooked to reservoir. I'm forcing a small reset on the SIP. Hoping to reconnect them all soon. More to come...

Had to attach some more wires and weights as anker against the wind. Buds swelling nicely and densely covered in Trichomes. On day 42 of flowering I took the smallest branch from the bottom of the weaker of the 2 plants, dried the bud for 5 days and dropped it on the Purpl Pro. Came back with 15% THC. It had perfect moisture so i gave it a smoke and it was a smooth smoke already. Given the fact this was a very "bad" flower sample, and that another week of flowering with good sunhours has passed im expecting something along 18-21% THC on the good Material, wich is pretty neat for a metropole area balcony grow in 6L pots. Will post purpl pro results of both plants once dried, cant wait! Had to protect the Plants against some sudden Rainfalls, kept sitting there until it stopped raining - but see for yourself
