Really sorry for anyone that was actually following and wanted to see updates but I had to take some time away and neglected this project. My friend/neighbour/weed mentor passed away and I just haven’t felt the same. Moving along, after cleaning up most of the big fan leaves I decided to just switch into flower… I have 3 seedlings of Tropicana poison F1 saved out of 40. This was the next project of my friend that has passed. My goal is to finish this grow and honor my late friend with a grow diary of his plants. I’m sure he’ll be smiling above. 36 hours of darkness before proceeding to switch lighting to 12/12 Added 3 feedings a day now, but reduced the amount fed. Food has been given extra liquid mycorrhiza and bacteria. Will be using PLAGRON: Green sensation 4-in-1 in addition to megacrop at week 4 of flowering and see if there’s any benefits

Seems to be on track 👣 daily height changes now, you can see between the two "groot" pics about 2 -3 days apart.

Overall this plant was great to grow, she just grew and was happy doing it the entire time, pretty good yield off a plant that was only about 12inches tall. Seemed to be a lot more resistant to deficiencies then the other two strains this grow. Definitely a great mid-day Smoke!

I put up a 2nd scrog net and added another sun master making the total lighting 600w + 400w. This gave a temperature rise which made me also add a small air-conditioning unit. I only used this as an fan at this point.

Day 91 and all 4 plants have been on ripen for 8 days. That has helped speed up the lemon pie so I will get something from her. I spotted a good few what I think may be spring tails swimming in the res, as its near my res change and I'm flushing after that I'm not to worried about them. Pineapple express has been bulking all week and trichomes are all cloudy, she looks ace. Jack herer also bulked up a bit more, she has cloudy and a few amber trichomes, she is ready for the flush. Gorilla cookies has put on a little weight this week, her trichomes are cloudy and Amber and lots of them, she was ready to flush a few days ago really. Lemon pie the one that's looked poorly all the way through has turned into a Swan. Colours have come out nicely and bud production is coming on nicely, she could do with another 5 to 10 days before flushing but I'm finishing her with the others. 2 more days on ripen then I'm starting to flush. Not long left. Max 25.8deg Avg 22.1deg Min 17.2deg Max 59.6% Avg 47.4% Min 37.5%

The Bubble OG plants are looking awesome! My tallest one is stacking up with super dense buds. It's crazy to think that the other one is almost ready to chop – the colors are so vibrant. And then there's that short and squat one with the purple leaves. It's definitely the oddball of the bunch, but I kind of like it. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Not bad not bad, by the looks of it she'll be a fatty but i just hope that she'll be ready at the same time as the others. What i want to know is how the bbc can predict when i want my harvest but can't predict when my fucking landlady will break in and faff about it my grow room, long story short 46 makes me 👺 anyways, boucing back from a scare nevermind mind her 46 is my focus lol oh my the things we do... enjoy ! 🚀 Induced resin production by dropping the lightschedule to 10/14 almost immediate effects were smelt, loud and clear : candy shop goodness ! this one is gonna be a sweet one ! 👊

🇩🇪 14.12. neue Woche neues Aussehen :) zwei Sonnensegel die nach oben zeigten entfernt, damit die inzwischen 4 seitentriebe etwas licht bekommen. die Drähte die letzten Tage über immer mal wieder neu justiert. Und vor ein paar Tagen zwei „Anker“ an den Stamm gesetzt damit die Pflanze bleibt wo sie ist. Durch den zug auf der anderen Seite hat sie angefangen sich dort mehr rüberzubiegen. Ansonsten macht sie sich ganz gut es läuft mehr oder weniger nach Plan. Happy Growing💛✌️ 🇬🇧 12.14. New week, new look :) I removed two upward-facing fan leaves so the four side shoots could get some light. I've been readjusting the wires a few times over the last couple of days. And a few days ago, I added two "anchors" to the stem to keep the plant in place. The tension on the other side had caused it to start bending more. Otherwise, it's doing quite well; things are more or less going according to plan. Happy Growing💛✌️

2/10: I watered today with about 3/4 gallon each, plus cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, a little open sesame, and their final dose of endoboost. I took photos today, but forgot to snap a shot of the Soooperrunt. She's as tall as the short one now, just not as bushy. I think she'll make a fair amount of bud despite her sloooow start, smaller stature, and smaller pot. The tall one is keeping pace with the biggest plants in the garden. 2/11: Wife home sick today....postponing construction project to raise the lights....kinda scary....about 10"-12" from the tops now.. 2/12: I woke up to find the tallest of these bitches stretched another few inches and within 9 inches of the lights!!! I quickly drug everybody out of the closet and undertook the project. In addition to that project, I installed and hooked up my new AC Infinity 6" intake fan. It's pulling in fresh air from the soffit vent on the eave of the attic, and currently feeding the garden with 46f fresh air. I'm able to easily maintain daytime temps in the lower 70f's now. I am able to drive the nighttime temps as low as I want. The only issue is that the outdoor RH varies quite a bit, so I ordered a 30-pint dehumidifier to put in the top of the closet. It will battle with the evaporative cooler while the lights are on to keep it at 45% RH, but after the lights go off, it will lower the RH to 35% unti morning. After another couple of weeks, I'll kill the evap cooler altogether and try to maintain 35% RH 24/7. I'm optimistic that it will be the difference-maker in maintaining lower RH while I'm flushing all the plants during the last couple of weeks. That's usually such a challenge...especially with a bunch of 5 gallon pots. I also sprayed everybody with boomboom spray to try and mitigate the light burn damage that is likely to ensue. 2/13: Still stretching... about 12" from the lights again. I will wait to raise the lights until tomorrow when I feed them. I'm seeing calcium deficiency on a few plants, including a #9. Will up the dose tomorrow when I feed. 2/14: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, cal-mag, signal, bembe, humic acid, and I switched over from Open Sesame to Beastie Bloomz. Raised the lights another couple of inches. I did some training on them and defo'd a little bit. 2/15: Installed the new dehumidifier and rigged the continuous drain on it...works great. 2/16: I rotated the edge plants and removed some old leaves. I added another 22w 3000k 4' bar light under the canopy. 2/17: I rearranged the garden and defoliated a little bit. That's it for week 8-

Day 57 Day 15 flower - what can I say? No issues reported so far, did some more defoliation below the scrog and tidied up some of the flower sites, removed a few of the old fan leaves and checked on Zkittlez OG, she is frosty already and starting to look really sparkly and beautiful 💎😍 The others are also showing some frost and bud development is going well!! Exciting times ahead! 290319 day 59 flower day 17 - no issues apart from slight heat stress for the girl in the middle, will adjust the light tomorrow to ease the stress. Bud candy just arrived so I will add 1ml/l on next feed tomorrow morning! Overall the bud sites have came through in numbers and are looking very strong and healthy, OG Zkittlez auto has turned into diamonds of trichomes and the others are following suite 😍 more updates to come! Hopefully skittlez is finished in the next 3 weeks! Also added a rotating flow to get good air flow in the tent, there were some dead spots. 020419 day 63 flower day 21

Day 22. Work forced me to open tent 20 min earlier and i had to do shortest watering ever, like in 5 min ... Its hard to implement growing into 12 hours shift, especially during flowering... But girls look nice, drink quick, should be good result, unless .... ;))))))))) Day 23. Girls still run up and i have only 20 cm left max ... Supercroped most streching Middle Clone top, one side is shooting strong, will have to repeat action with it as well in couple days ... So all is good !!! Day 24. All got full feed. Supercroped branch is ok , all leaves are up !!! Got my last delivery, now lady bugs and theirs larvae has new support. When was working with plants yesterday i haven't seen any thrips, but order was made, so i rather use them ... Day 26. Had to clean predators balast from flowers,so i touched them .... Oh boy !!! Wanna chop them now ;))) i think thats one of tastes i was chasing, now waiting is pure PAIN !!! ;)) It looks like i pushed them a bit too far with double feed attempt ... so now , water, water + silica, water + calmag, water + molasses , and only then new feed again. Happy Growing !!!
