Heyheyhey, look, this one popped out of the soil and is looking nice and healthy, waiting for the second set of leaves now. Slowly stretching towards the new lights. https://www.viparspectra.com/?aff=Smokwiri-discount&utm_source=affiliate If you dont want to use the affiliate link, you can go to their website and get 8% discount at checkout with coupon code: RUFFSELEKTAH

End of Week 8 (First week of flower) Increased the CO2 to 1200ppm and the ladies love it, already started stretching within the first 3 days of flower which shows that CO2 definitely boosts the grow cycle of cannabis. The main top-sites are popping up everywhere and everything looks evenly spread out. I defoliated again because the fan leaves are growing so fast and blocking bud sites. I also did one last lower canopy maintenance and removed small and stalky bud sites and stems below the trellis net to make sure I get maximum energy distribution to the main colas. I also added some GHF BioEnhancer to make sure the soil-microbes are happy and that the plants reach their maximum potential. Pest Report: EXTERMINATED! Thrips VS Ladybugs VS Neem Oil... I decided to fight fire with fire - I purchased Swirski-Mites from Koppert (They are beneficial insects that feed on the eggs and larvae of thrips and other unwanted pests). As for the adult thrips - I got very lucky and found about 10 Ladybugs in my garden and decided to introduce them into my grow room as they will feed on adult thrips and any other unwanted pests. Then to be extra sure I know that neem oil hinders the life cycle of pests like thrips causing them to stop colonising in my grow room. So I sprayed the ladies every day during the dark period to make sure there are no pests that I or the Ladybugs have missed. Mission accomplished. No more wilting and definitely no more thrips.

Hi all not much going on this week just feed and kept comfortable hopefully done good enuf job 👍 Wedding cheese cake 2 weeks or so ahead of strawberry banana. Its me first grow though and really knew nothing when I started other than a bit of studying for few weeks never took into consideration about one strain finishing faster and no were to dry it so asked wife can use wardrobe,nearly ended living back with my mammy🤣🤣 I jst taught ill use that tent for everything haha how stupid was I to think different strians different plants all be ready together when I need them to not when they are haha so went out bought another tent small one so not to be tempted to fill that up is well then have to buy another one to dry before you know it I'll have ten tents and still no where to dry 🤣🤣🤣so small marshydro tent for drying and drying only haha then hopefully all be good anyone know the right temps and humidity for best results.I hear many different ones its very confusing.so started flushing wedding cheese cake going to try do at least ten days flush till tent comes with just ph 6.0 water still feeding strawberry banana fir another week or 2 maybe. Thanks for stopping by and having a look keep growing and blazing all.

They look fat i hope but will be heavy 😀

6.11. 2023 4:30 - It is time for a thorough flushing of the RQS genetics with osmotic water and I will use flawless finish from advanced nutrients to force the plant to absorb the remaining nutrients from the leaves. 7.11. 2023 5:00 - Careful observation of the trichomes and their coloration, I plan to harvest the plant when the trichomes start to turn amber. At the moment they seem to be slowly turning a milky colour and seem to be "filling up" 8.11. 2023 4:00 - The leaves seem to be slowly losing colour, especially in one RQS genetics the yellowing is quite pronounced. 8.11 2023 4:30 - I will try to remove all the old dead leaves and the ones that are already letting the plants go, but I will not cut any off, only the ones that can be easily removed. 9.11. 2023 20:00 - I think the trichomes are slowly filling up and harvest time is approaching with each passing day. 10.11. 2023 8:00 - I will try to participate in the competition with my 420 genetics for the best photo just for fun :) i have to take some photos with black background but for now it's just a test i will add some. 11.11. 2023 7:00 - The leaves on all plants are turning yellow but the waste water is still around 1800ppm. The odd thing is there are probably a lot of residual salts in the substrate from nutrients. Hopefully we can get as much of it cleared up before harvest. 12.11. 2023 20:00 - I'm waiting for the trichomes to turn amber. I'll be patient. Most of the trichomes are now snow white, but not all.

Very good weather and nice growth this week!

Day 1 ....add additional soil, water and 1st topping Day 3 - checked for 2nd topping Day 5- watering....strong stems already

Still going strong, the plant has a very potent smell. Plant 1 will be done flowering in about 4 weeks and plant 2 will probably need 1 or 2 weeks extra. It’s really cool to see that even though it’s the same genetics the Pheno’s are different in Growth and flower speed.

Plant has solid root base

This week has been time to put on weight!! They are getting so heavy glad put in secondary scrog net. Have only been doing water so plants can just pull what they want our the soil they are starting to fade on their own. They have some amazing kinda blue tent to the buds. They have a gassy sweet smell to them! This will be the last week I feel but still see some clear heads and no amber so shall see over next week!!

(10/28-11/03) Starting a new grow with two 420 FastBuds Fast Flower seeds (thank you 420 FastBuds for making this possible) I plan to be rough with these plants and top them both to 8 colas. This journal will be different than my last (alot less detail) but I will still look for new opportunities to learn something new that I can share. I also plan to take at least 5 pics per week with 1 video and 1 'pretty' cover pic per week, however I also plan to delete the excess details at the end of each week. I sanded both seeds on the edge and simply soaked a towel for germination. These seeds took 3 days to show a crack in the shell from the time that I placed them into the paper towels without glass of water soak prior- As soon as they cracked, I placed them into Rapid Rooters in an incubator until they showed tap root growing out from the bottom of the rapid rooters plug. That took a total of 6 days (now called Day 0) from paper towel to transplant day (now called Day 1) where they were about 1 to 1.5 inches above the soil line after I planted them in 5 gallon pots with about 2 tsp of Dynomyco Mycorrhizal Inoculant already mixed into the ph balanced soil that had been growing Happy Frog mycorrhizae for 12 days under cardboard. I fed them each about two cups of plain de-chlorinated tap at 6.3 ph on day 2, and another .5 gallon of 5.8ph de-chlorinated tap on day 7(both plants top soil was 7.0ph before feed). I plan to ph read the top soil again tomorrow but it read 6.7 on both plants after 5.8 feed)

So far so good everything coming along great 👍🏻 only one issue when lid came of bottle during watering and almost drowned one whilst in there smaller pots but left them for a day and repotted looks ok but she’s a bit behind the rest ✌️🏻

Update week 4 Bloom

Started some Fastbuds. Ban purp pun and gorilla cookies. Have grown some blue dream, smoothies and Forbiden runtz, like the brand. Some Seedsman i tried like Nor lights was good. Will have to try some other brands to experience some difference if any. Im about six month in and i have seemed to have taken more info in than i wanted but still gratifying. ✌️

Look

Sigo pulverizando cada dia un par o tres veces con agua destilada y regando a ojo las que voy viendo secas cada dos más o menos. No son ciencias exactas y unas demandan más o menos segun fenotipo , el sitio donde están dentro del armario, por el riego anterior por si fué excesivo o insuficiente, etc etc . La idea es regar cuando veo que lo necesitan. regar y dejar secar. A mitad de semana las cambié a maceta de 5,5L téxtil y las pasé bajo los COB , 4 cri97 4000K y 5cri 97 2700K ,250W áprox. En estos momentos aumento el riego a 500ml por planta cada dos dias áprox. según. Armario de doble capa de DM con aislante y las medidas serian 76x76x180. El armario está fuera de casa por lo que tengo que luchar contra las inclemencias meteorológicas añadiendo un par o tres de calefactores de 80W. en momentos de mucho frio o aumentar caudal de extracción y tiempo de ventilador cuando hace mucho calor. Los calefactores van con sensor de temperatura graduado para que el sustrato se mantenga a 20- 22ºC áprox Esta semana empiezo a regar con agua del grifo , de base 0.4 áprox. y 6´5 de PH.

73 Day 10 Weeks to Harvest

Not much to report this week from the garden. All the plants received a top dressing of about 300ml worm castings and 80ml Dr Forest Organic 284 Bloom just before the start of week eight, and will most likely be their last feeding. The plants have stuck to the usual watering schedule of 2.5l every two days. The huge Wedding Cheesecake growing in Coco Coir appears to me to be showing signs of cal/mag deficiency so yesterday I top dressed with Cal/Mag again from Dr Forest Organics. Keeping humidity under 45% has been a battle well and truly lost this week, and has varied wildly and constantly between around 41% and 57% but has been most often found to be around 47%. The battle rages on. I have been defoliating once a week, mainly just removing stuff covering bud sites, and trichome production on all four Bruce Banners has really taken off. After only a fairly light defoliation session, my hands were so sticky they were almost glued together and I rolled all I could remove from my hands into a sausage and smoked it mixed in with my other stuff, but that was only about 1/2 to 2/3rds of what was stuck to my hands, and I have to wash my hands in isopropyl alcohol and soap and fairly liquid 3 times before the best part of it was removed.
