Day 33: What an amazing height and bud gain in just 3 days! Lady #1 is 67 cm tall now, her sister a tad smaller. Both still have a great color, and I dared to cur away just the lowest branches and leaves that do not look like they could gain height in time. Really enjoying this strain so far!
At the end of their day, they are a bit dropping leaves, so clearly no hunger for more light. The impressive growth speed continued on their buds: Tallest lady at 70 cm now.
Their next morning shows growth is still at an impressive 5 cm/day as lady #1 with her leaves erected again stretches now 72, the maximum of my previous growth. Pulled the lights as close as possible to the ceiling and hope they won’t make it much more than 1 m. I activated the Sansi 30 W folded wings LED to give them somewhat of a morning and evening light and to add some more light to their overlapping center branches in the middle of "their" day. Sadly that’s causing some interference to the timelapse videos, but I can’t say they’re perfect if it wouldn’t.
Watching the timelapse video of day 34, I have the feeling the additional light rather irritates them. Maybe the interference is not only visible for electronic eyes. I’ll keep it off next day for comparisons.
Day 35 shows stretch speed has reduced indeed and they seem to be concentrating on leaf and bud growth instead. 75 cm, so we are currently at "only" 3 cm/day. Watered them with a HPE/Bud growth mix again last night, about 1 l each.
Well, forget my words about reduced growth. After they recovered during the night, we are at 77 cm for lady #1.
Which measured at 78 with hanging leaves in their day’s evening. I must have missed a day number – day 36 concludes their 5th week. I gave them another 2 l of fertilised water each and will lave them for the weekend again.
Video shows that growth concentrates now more on leaf and bud development than on gaining height. So I guess my 160 cm tent will be sufficient. For a moment I was worried, but it looks like stretch is over. Anyway, time to rearrange the camera next week. Leaves are running out of focus.

Buds are fattening, hairs are turning orange and the smell is very pungent. Getting some black tips on leaves, any advice would be great. I gradually lowered the ec last week and this week, wondering if that’s what caused it, ph has been dialed. About 2 weeks until harvest.

Week 14 - 06/14 - 06/20
Light - 400 W HPS & 265 W LED
Temperature - 76 +/-3
Humidity - 40 +/-5
D43 Flower - Watered the ladies, they are swelling up nicely. While I am happy to stare at these beauties daily, this is definitely the boring part of growing, not much to report besides beautiful bud growth. They have also started to produce a strong scent, to the point where I will smell the entire house up if the garage door is open. Loving the way this grow is turning out.
D46 Flower - Water with nutrients and added some blackstrap molasses to the mix. I took a risk today and tested out some late flower defoliation, I took the large fan leaves off two of the clones and front Hulkberry and Royal Gorilla Scrog. I want to see the difference in growth with late flower defoliation.
D47 Flower - Moved the LED light a little further away, I had noticed some light burn on one of the clones. Decided to build a drying box since I am pretty sure I will have to harvest these strains separately. Added some pics, its a quick build out of some stuff I had laying around the house. Only had to buy a $10 filter that I could cut up and $20 silica gel packs. I am running the exhaust air from the tent into the dry box that will filter through the $10 charcoal filter I cut up and doubled up on the filtration. I'm going to add refreshable silica gel packs in the box to help fight humidity. Hopefully, it works.

The Black Devil's OG is trucking along without issue, while the Northern light is a tad on the droopy side at night and is likely expecting earlier night hours. I will likely adjust my light schedule to reduce the stress.
The videos posted came out pretty well, considering they came out of a cell phone camera. 400x ends up being really blurry as the phone can't focus properly to compensate, but you can still see all the bacteria dancing around. Some nematodes and ciliates there too.

Week 16 (Harvest)
1-2 Drying day 1
Temperature: 24.5 to 19.5 degrees
Humidity: 65% to 50%
The girls are ready to be harvested!
Before chopping them down, i took a lot of pictures.
I was able to remove most of the soil from the Biscotti #2 to see the rootball.
I hang the plants as a whole to have a slow dry.
The exhaust fan is on setting 4.
2-2 Drying day 2
Temperature: 19.1 to 17.5 degrees
Humidity: 62% to 57%
I changed the exhaust fan to setting 2 because setting 4 was a bit high in my opinion.
3-2 Drying day 3
Temperature: 19.9 to 18 degrees
Humidity: 62% to 59%
Today i checked up on the drying plants, and i see there are some buds touching other buds, so i chopped the plants in half.
The buds are still to the main stem for a slow dry, but are hanging more spreaded out to prevent any budrot issues.
I changed the exhaust fan to setting 1, as someone told me that it was enough air movement for drying.
4-2 Drying day 4
Temperature: 19.8 to 18.5 degrees
Humidity: 62% to 59%
5-2 Drying day 5
Temperature: 19.9 to 18.8 degrees
Humidity: 62% to 59%
Today i checked on the drying plants and the buds are shrinking a bit, they are getting a little bit crispy on the outside aswell,
I hope they wont dry as fast, and i aim for a 12/14 day dry.
For the next grow i already germinated 2x Chemdog (GreenHouseSeeds) 2x Gorilla Kush (GanjaFarmerSeeds) and 1x Deep Candy CBD (GreenHouseSeeds)
And I have some upgrades planned aswell!
I bought a autopot kit with 4 15L pots, this way the plants will have water and air 24/7 whenever they need it. I have seen alot of great results using autopots so i am very exited to try it out!
And I bought a small camera so i can shoot some weekly timelapses!
Feel free to Follow me if you like to get notified for the upcoming diaries!
Thanks for checking out this diary, peace!
(More harvest updates coming in the next couple of days!)
Huge thank you to Zamnesia for the seeds, and Plagron for the collection of nutrients, and the opportunity to participate in the POWERBUDS contest!
It was a fun and learningful adventure!

We chopped down the plants. Now they hang out to dry in the tent.
The Trichs looked very good. Some milky, some amber, hardly any clear. Just the way I want it. The popcorn buds were rather milky. So we have more of a couchlock effect on the head buds and the maximum THC on the popcorns. I'm really looking forward to the taste💚

Too much going on for a detailed update, but here are the highlights:
Did a res change on 12th. Was thorough in removing all of the old water, and flushed out the roots of both grow sites until the water ran clear. Filled with RO and did nutes until ~900 PPM.
Creme de la Chem just kept stretching, got into the light. I re-worked the tent today, and now they have like 4 inches of space... definitely sub-optimal. I've been trying various techniques on different stalks to see if anything works ... super cropping, topped off some smaller bud sites, and folding over as much as I think they can take. She just won't stop stretching! Finally seeing decent pistils on her, though, so maybe she's almost done. Going to be a lot of toasted and light bleached buds on these two beasts :(.
SOH hasn't been getting much taller at all, just adding more and more pistils. I'm waiting for her to start fattening up, and excited to see what she produces.
As you can see from underwater temps, I've been doing battle with the water temp fighting to keep it under 72F. I'm rotating ice packs, and it's annoying AF. When this grow is over, I will be adding insulation to the outside of my buckets. I've learned so much already ... my next grow will be much much smoother. For now, it's just a matter of trying to cope with my early mistakes 😂.

Pistals are browning, trics are mostly cloudy with very little amber yet (60x microscope). Leaves are still green, but fading to lighter colour now. A tiny bit more frosting is happening
BLOODY Skunk! She still smells of cat piss urine and hasnt been fed anything but Flawless Finish for over a week. I suppose the amount of greenery leaf she had is keeping her fed all this time. The buds are pretty large but considering I used the entire lineup of Advanced Nutrients PH perfect and added in Terpinator, had her under 375watts of intense Vero29 COB lights and 250W of Mars Hydro epistar LEDs... I just do not understand why more frosting didnt happen.
Next week will be the kill update and we will see how much WET weight she has.
Video/pics added for my friend @Wheetobeme who seems to be the only person following this mess of mine :D :D :D

Welcome to my Strawberry/Lemon pie diary sponsored by Mars Hydro.
Days 63-77
She's getting there. Lovely citrus bang. Buds have lost there elongated pistils. And some nice lemon smells are coming from that area. Buds are super hard. As you get down deep to the end, she's still a tad soft. Last few days she's been finishing what's left in her pot. Cherry Cola is just coming across the finish line.
Just want to give credit to the SP 3000 she manged to pull off an astounding 11 plants. Yes, all at different stages. But for the past 2 months she's had 11 rocking and has achieved 500+g and 4 more to add to that.

Buenas a tod@s.... Séptima semana de estás tropicanna poison de sweet seed.. las veo bien, fuertes y engordando, rico aroma y parece q bastante recina, no quiero anticiparme a nada, faltan unas semanas y van a engordar algo más, es verdad q a mí parecer creo q las pasé a flora antes de tiempo( errores de novato ese y otros mas) pero puede ser mi parecer, pero podría haberlas dejado crecer algo más en su etapa anterior, apuntado para el próximo cultivo....💪🏻 X lo demás todo en orden, temperatura, humedad, pH, luz y nutrientes... Es verdad que las variedades pueden prometer mucho más, si hay carencias es x falta de experiencia la cual se aprende paso a paso🙏🏻 nos vemos en unos días, buenos humos para tod@s 🔥💨💨💨🏻😎⚕️

Vamos familia, actualizamos la cuarta semana de vida de estas Gelato 44 de RoyalQueenSeeds.
Tuve problemas con la temperatura que estuvo alta 28/26 grados y humedad dentro de los rangos correctos, la única queja es la temperatura, 16 horas luz, 8 oscuridad, estiraron un poco, pero van lentas por el momento, que cojan fuerza.
El trasplante a sido realizado a la maceta definitiva, 7L con sustrato Top crop.
Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨
