Hey there, as the clones are almost ready and I will transplant them in the aeroponic system tomorrow, I allowed myself to get the pH and EC ready and stabilize it over a night. 😏 August, 20th: 23 of the 30 clones made it to the system and are now growing fine. Guess those 7 clones that didn‘t make it were old ones from below the mother plant. SanLights at 40%. ☀️

04.05 They are doing well after the defoliating 05.05 I decided to remove some smaller branches to give the main stems more potential to grow, we have per plant around 4 - 6 main stems, there would be a possibility to do more but since I need to be ready in time I am fine what I have here in form of stems. Beside that I really saw the first time a difference between the pots with airdome and the one without. The one without needs later water, I watered every pot with airdome again with 1500ml and will do the other pot later this day. 08.05 After a talk with a friend and some information I found through the www, I decided to lollipop way earlier and way more restrictive then I would usually do. 09.05 Watered with 1500ml 11.05 I finally installed the autopot system and measured the water in the tank. Hesi is reducing the PH level and am not sure if it is really healthy for plants potted in soil to have such a low PH.

In der fünften Woche habe ich es gewagt. Nachdem ich die Weiße Witwe schon etwas trainiert habe, wurde sie jetzt auch oberhalb des fünften Sprossknotens abgeschnitten. Dazu habe ich meine Nagelschere benutzt (siehe Video), mit der ich mir auch die Fußnägel schneide. 😅 Dann wurde die unterste Nodi noch entfernt. Jetzt hat sie noch vier Nodien übrig, die zu acht Blütenstände wachsen sollen. Es war das erste Mal, dass ich eine Pflanze getoppt habe. Um sie besser runter binden zu können, habe ich einen Haselnusszweig quer über den Topf befestigt. Das macht das Festbinden um einiges leichter. Die Cherry-Lady lasse ich ohne Training etc. wachsen. Sie ist aktuell ca. 40 Zentimeter hoch. Hier werde ich in den nächsten Tagen nur etwas entlauben. Die untersten Blätter können abgemacht werden. Sie sehen nicht sehr gut aus. Die Kirschen-Lady kann auch einen größeren Topf vertragen. Sie wird bald umgetopft. Der PH-Wert der Supermarkt-Blumenerde ist mit etwa 8 zu hoch. Der Idealwert liegt zwischen 6 und 7. Ich werde dafür Rhododendron- und Hortensienerde besorgen. Damit wird ein eigener Mix hergestellt. Solange bleibt sie aber noch in ihrem kleinen Topf, dem ich einen Mantel verpasst habe. Der Jutebeutel soll die Pflanze vor den Trauermücken schützen. Das abgeschnittene Teil der White Widow wird versuchsweise in einen kleinen Anzuchtbehälter gesteckt und ordentlich nass gehalten. Ich bin gespannt, ob es mir gelingt, die Pflanze zu klonen. peace & love

|»» LOG DISCLAIMER: Not intended as a grow guide. Grow log entries are usually posted 3 weeks later and are for my learning reference. ««| Introduction - Week 14 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 17535.7, Wow what a week of growing! Ending the veg phase healthy and strong! Wow the garden is thriving! Started the week with a compost tea brew and wow growth exploded with vigor! By the end of the week, both Heady OG and TKO have filled in the scrog netting and the canopy is more than ready for the two-week stretch! Also slightly increased VPD levels. As for the veg tent, been on auto-pilot. Basic super-cropping and topping to keep the canopy low and even. The Heady OG and TKO clones are still rooting in the propagation dome and plan on check for roots next week. Anyways, the 12/12 flip begins tomorrow! Maximum warp Ensign! Engage!

Been researching more on compost teas and with about week before the flip to flower, think it’s time to brew up some compost tea! --- Using the TeaLab brewing rig to bubble and mix the stew! --- Going to attempt to brew a fungal dominant tea using a modified compost tea recipe from Dr. Elaine Ingham. --- Unlike most compost teas, her recipe lacks molasses and sugars which promotes a more fungal dominant brew instead of anaerobic bacterial microbes. --- Okay let's start brewing! --- Assembled and installed the TeaLab brewing rig into a 5-gallon bucket and secured the unit using a garden support wire. --- Have a few empty buckets under the main brew bucket for insulation. Not really needed (pretty warm in the lung room), but why not. --- If the pump ever fails, to prevent flood-backs, made sure to place the unit above the water level and resting above the brew bucket. - [10:37]: Filled the 5-gallon bucket with 1-gallon of RO water. --- Plugging the pump in to start the bubbling! --- Have to say that the unit is a bit louder than anticipated, but wow the bubbles are quite vigorous and could not achieve the same level of aeration with air-stones. - [10:46]: Time to pre-condition the water! --- Since I'm using RO water, both chlorine and chloramine shouldn't be an issue. But to neutralize any remaining chlorine and chloramine, going to brew with humic acid for a bit. ------ Added 1/32tsp of Big 6 Micronutrients [+ Humic Acid] ------ Added 1/2tsp of Pure Protein Dry [Fish Hydrolysate Aminos] --------- [ BREWED FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES ] - [10:57]: Okay!

Going to be an epic flower cycle! --- Time to tuck and pluck! - [18:58]: Tucked the top growth under the scrog netting. --- Defoliated more of the larger fan leaves. --- Cleaned the bottom for both girls. --- Mulched the trimmings. --- Now both ladies have clean legs! --- Wow TKO’s main stalk is thick! Really wish I started her in a 30-gallon. Oh well. A 20-gallon should still be more than enough soil. I think. --- Anyways! - [19:25]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 49% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 37% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 47% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 48% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 42% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 40% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 40% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 41% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] - [19:26]: Quickly checked on the auto-watering system. --- System is still charged and no leaks or kinks found in the tubing. --- All WittFlow units are also connected. Although 2 units are getting low. - [19:42]: Okay time to feed the compost tea! --- The compost tea has been brewing for about 8hrs. --- Before feeding the tea, ------ Added 1/8tsp of: --------- Quillaja Saponaria Extract [60] --------- Recharge --------- Lotus Cal/Mag ------ Added 1tsp of Horticultural Coconut --------- [ BREWED AGAIN FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES ] - [19:57]: Okay!

Will be using the filter from now on for all future teas. - [21:00]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Ooo yea! Vegging mamas are looking both flat healthy! --- Swapped out the yellow sticky traps. Pots are looking great and no signs of flooding! - [21:07]: Checked on the propagation dome, --- To refresh the air, lifted the top off for a bit. --- Growth looks green! --- Heady is droopy but leaves look healthy. --- TKO is looking perky, but does have signs of yellowing. Not too worried because this can be a sign of rooting. --- Using a spray bottle, misted the top growth with RO water. --- Opened another vent. Now both side vents are open. - [21:15]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Wow what a day! Since this was my first compost tea brew, hoping I didn’t frack anything up. --- Anyways, Onwards Ensign!

These ladies are bushing out and are more than ready for flower! - [20:46]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: ------------------ [ 4x4 MAIN TENT ] --------------- ------ 52% - [CH01 FT » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 37% - [CH02 FB » G30 - Heady OG BX1 #1] ------ 49% - [CH03 BT » G20 - TKO] ------ 47% - [CH04 BB » G20 - TKO] ------------------ [ 3x3 VEG TENT ] ---------------- ------ 40% - [CH05 BL » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#1] ------ 41% - [CH06 BR » GR7 - Garlic Budder OG#2] ------ 42% - [CH07 FL » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #1] ------ 44% - [CH08 FR » GR7 - Gorilla Goat #2] --------- Veg: 38% - 45% | Flower: 45% - 55% --------- General: 30% [Dry] «| 45 - 60% [Moist] |» 70% [Wet] --- All WittFlow units are also connected and charged. - [20:58]: Checked the 3x3 veg tent. --- Super-cropped and lowered the canopy by a few inches. --- Yea, the canopy is getting thick with growth again. Wow! --- All pots also look great and vegging along. - [21:07]: Checked on the propagation dome, --- To refresh the air, lifted the top off for a bit. --- Clones are looking great! --- Heady OG is still droopy, but none of her leaves are yellowing. She just looks stressed. --- TKO looks healthy and what I normally expect from cloning. There are yellowing leaves, but new growth is perky and green! Removed the lowest yellowing leaf which was starting to get necrotic. --- Using a spray bottle, misted the top growth with RO water. --- Opened a top vent. Now 3 out of 4 vents are open. - [21:18]: Checked the humidifiers. --- Tanks are still full and no leaks found. --- Another grow week done! --- Need to check the clones for roots next week and hopefully will transplant into solo cups soon. --- Oh yea! Tomorrow begins the big flip to flower! Ca-Caw! Let’s go! [END OF WEEK 14]

Trichomes are looking milky and full. Going to give one more light feeding, and then flush em towards the end of the week. G13 has some calyxes that are growing in top of existing bud... possible this one keeps growing for another week, but seems like Banana is ready to go. Is there any downside to getting one gallon sized Mason jars for curing? I've yet to have a successful dry/cure, so really hoping to dial it in this time with the proper climates.

9/29 Wow that NYCSA is probably the healthiest plant I've ever grown.ive researched more on the strain. I researched flower time and it is 8 to 10 weeks! Tichs are starting to turn milky. Hairs are turning a little amber. I FIMMED this and it turned out beautiful with like five colas. The little 5lb kush is done. It's about the densest buds I've grown. We have a few days of good weather so I may leave it for a few days. I was considering another app of plant doctor but held off. If I see ANY wpm I'll apply it. Going to hit the NYCSA with cha ching again. Probably one more feed. Grow big should've been taken out a couple weeks ago. Seeing this plant grow so healthy solidifies my new grow area. I even found two or three aphids! Obviously there are no earwigs or their wouldn't be ANY aphids. Nor buds near the stalk. I've got two little quarter size buds at the bade of the plant and those would be gone. Blueberry turned out great. Can't believe it made it through the fusarium outbreak. UPDATE: I think the little 9lb kush is done. Both by the trichs and the shape of the bud. The next few days are supposed to be really good though so I might just let it ride. That NYCSA has continued to surprise me. Strong odor resinous buds. Still blond hairs that have just started to change but the buds are really stacking up. This is one of the healthiest plants I've had so its going the distance. The buds are swelling and trichs getting milking bit the hairs are still blond. I'm hoping for another both swell. When I FIMMED this it ended up coning out perfect with like five tops. I'll have to post a picture of the limb skeleton. I can't take the anxiety with the rippers and letting things go till perfection so I've started keeping the plants inside. I guess that's one benefit if a small grow bag lol. 10 gal us a lot easier to move than 50. I was upset that I lost so much but in very grateful for what I still have. 9/30 Harvested the 9lb kush today. Trichomes say it's done. The buds haven't been getting any bigger either. It is coated in trichomes (approx 15%-20% amber) and extremely dense. I'll save details for the harvest report. FED the NYCSA kf gallon. I used only Cha Ching and Silica. I'm not sure if it should be hit one more time with plant doctor or not. I'm not seeing mold or pm. It says up till day OF harvest and has instructions for medical cannabis. The trichs on this NYCSA have swelled and are filled in super milky. Amber on leaves. I think the FIM might be deceiving me as so many tops are going to be smaller than one large cola. It also has blond hairs all over it. They ARE pulling in a bit but the plant doesnt look ready to me. No senescence but It's one of the healthiest plants I've ever grown. Temps dip into the low 30s at night. I will keep thos diary updated. I need to get my ass in gear and trim my blueberry so I can do the harvest report. I grew it last year too. Turned out better this year. Still have buds on tge blueberry plant that I want to use to show the damage earwigs do. Even to fully mature buds with tons of trichs that should protect them. 10/1 This may have been a shitty season and I lost ALMOST everything to fusarium but I'm grateful for what I do have. Quality over quantity this time. The NYCSA goes inside at night. Trichs are all milky af buds are dense af. This girl has a week or two left. I'm young to pet nature dictate this harvest. I know this is a long flowering strain so I'm letting it ride. Very few of the yellow pistols started turning red. 10/2 Another super sunny day. I'm go8ng to have to water soon. Wondering if I should do one more app of plant doctor before I harvest. I saw a smidgen of pm on a very lower inner leaf. I think the plant needs a week or two. It's tricky. Trichs say its done and buds are swelled but the pistols haven't changed color yet. A VERY few have but hardly any and I've got all milky trichs and super rock hard buds. Frost warning today and tomorrow but I'm putting the last one inside at night. I check it multiple times a day. Should be OK. 10/3 Last couple nights were freezing! Car was all iced up this morning. Good thing I put the last girl in the barn. She was absolutely perfect except for a few spots of pm down low. I bring a loupe everyday things change so fast. However since this plant is so healthy and has no problems I'm letting it ride until I feel it's perfect. Another hard frost tonight but the days are AWESOME. Just pure sun! Pistols are receding but haven't changed colors yet amd are still light orange. Some have died and turned red. The trichomes are full and milky with a few amber. I know that NYCSA is a long flowering strain. Looking at the structure of the flowers and the thickness if it's not done it's really close. I gave it some water today. About half a gallon. I was wondering I'd I should give it one more dose of plant doctor before I harvest. I think I've got a week or so left. I'm uncertain if I should use it or not. The pm was very space amd I wiped it off with a paper towel and alkaline water. The lb kush I harvested looks and smells amazing. I can't wait to try it. 10/4 Super cold last night. I waited to bring the plantvout until 8am and the temp only rose to 35 from 31 at 6am. Checked trichs again amd they look perfect. My only hesitation is that pistols haven't changed color and I noticed that SOME die and turn a bright red. The others pulled into the bud but stayed a more yellowish color than orange. I can't find any I go on this strain New York City Skunk Ape. I found the breeder which is from Maine. I think it's goonie genetics and its 10 week flower I think. This is a tough one. We have some sunny weather coming and it won't be too cold. I'll bring it inside at night. I did notice negligible amounts of pm on lower portion of plant. I defoliated but I didn't want to do the plant doctor as it's been so cold. Last few days have been all hard freezes. Below 30°F. I'll check on this later. If possible I'd like it to get all the sun it can. I'm just running out of time. Checked the relative humidity with not a cloud in sight and iys all sunny but the rh is 88%! No wonder we have a problem with mold. It I didn't think I'd be harvesting in a couple days I'd use plant doctor again. I'll make that decision later. It will at least get today's sunshine. EDIT: TODAY WAS THE DAY. She came down. Trichs were milky turning amber and the buds were fat as hell. I'm not risking anything else and I doubt I'd gain anything anyway. This girls telling me she's done so I listened. I'll be updating that harvest report soon. So excited for this strain!

Week 2 of the flowering phase flew by 🌱💨. Unfortunately, I may have overdone it with potassium or kept the water level too high – the classic signs of clawing leaves were evident. Thankfully, they seem to be recovering now and are back under control 💪🍃. My IR night experiment is showing clear results 🌌: The plants exposed to infrared radiation at night stretched significantly more. This might be especially beneficial for this indica-dominant strain as it leads to better canopy distribution, improved airflow, and reduced risks of mold and disease. Plus, the light distribution is much more efficient now, which I’m excited to see pay off. On the downside, my Orange Sherbert turned hermaphroditic 😔. It’s hard to pinpoint the cause – overfertilization seems unlikely since I’m using only organic nutrients. I suspect it might be linked to an E-field experiment I’ve been running. To confirm this theory, I’ll conduct a new grow with a similar strain next year to see if the electric field negatively impacts cannabis development. Stay tuned for updates! Drop a like and follow along for more grow insights 🌿✨. See you next week! Woche 2 der Blütephase ist wie im Flug vergangen 🌱💨. Leider habe ich wohl etwas zu viel Kalium gegeben oder den Wasserstand zu hoch gehalten – die typischen Anzeichen von Adlerkrallen waren sichtbar. Zum Glück scheinen sich diese jetzt zurückzubilden und sind wieder unter Kontrolle 💪🍃. Mein IR-Nachtexperiment zeigt bereits deutliche Ergebnisse 🌌: Die Pflanzen, die nachts mit Infrarotstrahlung bestrahlt wurden, haben deutlich stärker gestretcht. Das ist besonders bei dieser indica-dominanten Sorte wahrscheinlich von Vorteil, da es zu einer besseren Verteilung des Blätterdachs führt. Dadurch verbessert sich die Luftzirkulation, das Risiko von Schimmel und Krankheiten wird minimiert, und die Lichtverteilung wird effizienter. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich das weiter auswirkt! Leider hat meine Orange Sherbert gezwittert 😔. Woran das genau liegt, kann ich schwer sagen. Eine Überdüngung halte ich für unwahrscheinlich, da ich nur biologischen Dünger verwendet habe. Ich vermute, dass mein E-Feld-Experiment eine Rolle spielt. Um das zu bestätigen, werde ich nächstes Jahr einen neuen Durchlauf mit einer ähnlichen Sorte machen und prüfen, ob das elektrische Feld tatsächlich eine ungünstige Rückentwicklung der Pflanze verursacht. Bleibt dran, lasst ein Like da und folgt mir für weitere Updates 🌿✨. Bis nächste Woche!

Well, I was forced to change the light schedule to 12/12. And the girl doesn't really like it, there are 2 ladies growing in the tent, one of them is a photo (I always thought it was an autoflower), but it turned out to be a photo, and I have to change the time, which the mimosa doesn't like, instead of 18 hours of light, it will only get 12 :( but strange spots appeared on the leaves, but not on all of them and it doesn't expand, the flowering is ending, the flowers are filling up every day :) good luck to everyone :).

Desde el momento uno fue fácil de cultivar, no tuve ningún problema en todo su desarrolló. Como planta supero todas mis expectativas, se encuentran densos y muy pegajosos los cocos. En algunos hay partes de color violeta/lila. Y por ultimo recomiendo mucho cultivar esta genética por lo sencillo que fue cultivarla y sus resultados finales, todo de diez.

Cali crasher is a huge girl. She is bulking strong, and just growing like a weed. 🤣. She is under the Hortibloom Solux 350. 🤞🏻 for some nice colas. Everything is going good and she might be on ph water in about 2 weeks. About 3 to 4 weeks from finish. Thank you Hortibloom, and Doctor's Choice. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Refurbished soil HVAC system, and increased airflow. To maximize your yield, always aim for 40 moles, or 40,000,000 μmol, per day. Here is how much PPFD is needed per second for each phase of cannabis growth to achieve the DLI of 40 moles of light per day. I picked up a Quantum PAR Meter, very happy!😁 PAR Meter will show me how much useful radiation between 4-700nm the plant is getting from any given direction. Seedling phase (18hr cycle): 200–300 μmol m-2 s-1 Vegetative phase (18hr cycle): 617 μmol m-2 s-1 Flowering phase (12hr cycle): 925 μmol m-2 s-1, (1500 μmol m-2 s-1 @1500ppm co2) (ballpark). Anything above 2000 PPM is harmful to both the grower and the crops. The tent is currently reaching 3-400umol ms 1s at soil level (42" inches from light) and 1100umol-1300umol @ 25" Inches.

Hola a todos, día 46 de floración, estamos entrando en la última etapa de la floración (deben quedar 3 o 4 semanas más de floración), han comenzado a mostrarse quemaduras de luz en varias zonas de las planta por lo que bajé la potencia de la luz un 15% y agregué silicio a la mezcla de nutrientes, me pregunto si necesitare aumentar el calcio, los cogollos han comenzado a ganar peso, pronto debería agregar tutores para evitar que las ramas caigan, para la próxima semana comenzaré a bajar la salinidad de a poco. Saludos!

removed a few leaves to give each a little more space. the soil is a mixture of already "used and fresh earth", as well as a little perlite and lava rock and plenty of smelly pre-mix from biobizz.lol let's see how four of them get along in one pot.lol * tools for irrigation.lol: the sliced detergent bottle is demanding as a tool for hand watering. costly and time-consuming, but since you can adjust the water flow speed, every centimeter of soil really gets damp.lol and you can use it on all sizes of pots. (the plant in the last picture is another plant, fastBuds gorilla cookies, meanwhile, in my opinion my favorit.lol )
