September 2, Day 43. I removed the trellis because it was annoying and I realized the spaces were too large and that's why it felt clumsy... Kabob sticks are doing the trick so far. As I was clipping some leaves to prepare for flowering, I noticed roots growing through the bottom of the pot. I hate transplanting plants so I sat the current pot in another pot that was filled 30% with additional coco coir that had been prebuffered with seedlings strength nutrients to avoid shock. I am confident the roots will continue their journey through the first pot and into the additional space below. Now to observe for a few days, aiming to switch to flowering next week. I have removed at least 30 leaves throughout the last week and she is still looking so bushy and healthy... Thanks Recharge. I ordered Big Bud by Advanced Nutrients and I look forward to using it during flowering. SUPER MEGA HAPPY UPDATE Day 44, September 3. I clipped a branch and planted it in a prebuffered with seedling strength nutrients rockwool pellet... I baptized her Kaboom Baby.... And. She. Survived!!! Ahhhhh!!! So freaking happy! I am going to start a second grow under this diary called Kaboom Baby, La Reinita Africana. Update, Day 46, September 5, 11am. Fed and watered with all nutrients except Recharge. Kaboom Mama is growing wild and free. I had so many training plans but I like her this way. As always, thank you for stopping by. If you have any thoughts about this grow, please leave them below. Happy growing and massive yields to all 💯🙏💚

8/28: She's my last CC bean out of the original 7 that I received. (only ordered 5). I will not be ordering any more of them, but it is really good bud, so I figured why not.. I had 2 out of 3 seeds germinate last grow, and only 1 out of 4 this time....if they hadn't sent me the two freebies I might not have even been successful at all last time... I will FIM this one to try and increase the yield a little... She's in the 5gal tall black plastic pot with the white zip-tie loops on both sides.

week intel: its time for second pruning they grew up too fast and need second pruning as below : first i remove big fan leaves and only leaves then let them rest for 1 day then the second part of pruning will get done that is removing branches based on these conditions: 1-if the branch is very low and never can make it to the top , 2- if branch is in shade even after pruning fan leaves , 3- if there are too many branches at the small space then non of them will get resources so if there is no space for branch then , they must get remove. everything is perfect! stresses : pruning big fan leaves and lower branches + a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 884 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 325 ppm - 0.6 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 213 ppm - 0.4 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : no more stresses from now on till the end and from next week i'll reduce the amount of nitrogen and calcium to below half to the end.

***** Week 11 growth - February 20 to 26, 2021 - Week 3 Flower ***** These girls sure catch my eye every time I open the tent! MM1 has some awesome hybrid vigour and is looking F’n awesome 👏 👏 Stacking up beautifully and based on the diameter of their tops there is some swelling to come. Getting the underside cleaned with a good leaf strip has really changed her look and lower sites are getting of lots light now👊 I could have gone harder but that was good for me.....I will deal with some of the lower shit that may remain. Light is at 20” and pulling 480 watts at the end of the week. Stated off with 400 watts at the start of the week but keep pushing it up this week. I don’t want to break 1,000 to 1,100 PAR by very much as I am not supplementing with true CO2. I have an Exhale bag to raise it a couple hundred ppm. Feel the need to keep the intensity high for penetration lower in the canopy. Will lower the amount of time in daylight if stress gets too high. Push to 11/13???? Nutrients are following IPP HOG 3 Part pretty closely. Just playing with macro nutrient ratios but otherwise supplements are at full week dosages following week 3. Have been seeing great resin production last runs so staying with Rezin as part of their feed schedule in flower. Terpinator......I think I see a lot of sulfer benefit here so it stays in the grows as well. Recharge seems to be working out well but we did the change mid grow from Microbial Mass. Since in coco have to feed the microbes so they reproduce and really dig Nature’s Candy with Remos additives in there👍 To help keep the root zone clean we add Enzymes😃 I have been debating a lot lately about the addition of CalMag to these nutrient lines and it’s necessity but since in coco I keep adding some......noticed a couple of spots on MM2 so have added it back in a bit more this week. Little more detail....... Feb 20/21 - Day 15 - Full feed today.....it’s been five days. - tap water with Silica @ 1.5ml, IPP line at full strength. - 1400ppm and 6.1pH - 4L for MM1 and 3L for MM2. Feb 21/21 - Day16 - Dry out day Feb 22/21 - Day 17 - watering with supplements and light feed today. We are in mid flower now.....need to keep the macro nutrients up. - Epsom salts @ 1 Tbsp in 20L. Purple on stems is getting prominent......could be cold temps but also giving magnesium. - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, Nature’s Candy @ 1ml, grow @ 1ml, micro @ 2ml, bloom @ 2.5ml, Recharge @ 1 Tbsp in 20L. - 1400ppm and 6.0pH. - MM1 - 5L and MM2 - 4L. Feb 23/21 - Day 18 - keeping up the silica this watering - silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Ultimate B+ @ 1ml - 600ppm and 6.0pH - 3L for each girl. Little to no runoff this watering. Feb 24/21 - Day 19 - full feed again today.....girls are big and growing hard......keep it going💪 - IPP line as listed for full line. - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml - 1425ppm and 6.0pH - they are taking the high ppm feeding well. Feb 25/21 - Day 20 - Had some feed water left from yesterday. Added plain tap water to get 20L. - 810ppm and 6.1pH - 2L for each girl......don’t want to over saturate the medium. Feb 26/21 - Day 21 - Nothing today. - Will feed early tomorrow as it’s Saturday. - Let the root zone get some oxygen is my thought and water to nice runoff first thing in morning. Week three behind us looking forward to week 4. Expect to see more swelling and hopefully little stretch🤞 Frost levels are coming on strong and they have great signs for things to come💪😎 Pheno 1 is Turing out to be fire.....hope the terps to come are going to be as impressive. Thinking that these girls are going to primarily be turned into concentrates......or take a good size sample and see how she squishes👍 Glad we rolled the dice on this strain ETS.....now for patience😉

Hi guys This week I been tucking and pulling off selective leafs. The stretch is still real the blue cheese has exploded In growth and absolutely stink. I will be doing a major end of the week and removing little nodes that didn't make it. I finished a week flush as I did burn them, but now there back on the nutes, 2ml per litre of bloom and 1ml per litre of top max. I put 25l In the resivour so will see how long that lasts. Both plants are showing calyx and pistils. Looking forward to this one hopefully the nutes will kick in and the dark phoenix will be healthier green again. I will keep you updated thru the week as I expect a few changes in thru the week. Happy growing guys 👌💪💚 Day 16 12-12 So I done a little defoliation, I will be doing final one one day 21. So on there back on nutrients now at half dose. Autopot system is working brilliant. Felling good for this run. I'll keep you all updated if any major changes occur. 💚👊💪

Probably can't really call it SoG, but at least they are more ore less on level. Had a plant that was ready for harvest, and I'm going away for four days, so they got some pruning, a little top soil and water with nutes. I was going all organic, but they are getting quite big so I gave them some advanced nutes BigBud. It's always thrilling to leave them, and four days is long water wise.... But they usually enjoy their time alone. As long as lights, and air is on point... First run without any nutes issues and they look happy 😁

🇺🇸Week 3🇺🇸 – Growth Explosion & First Training Back again for this week’s update! The Mother Gorilla is going crazy—she’s growing at an insane pace, and honestly, I couldn’t be happier. The plant is super strong, and the leaves are just massive. Some are reaching up to 21 cm long, which is wild. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before. And honestly, I have to say—I’m seriously impressed by Formulex from Growth Technology. I’ve been using the same nutrient solution since the start, and the results are just insane. It’s such a simple product, but what it’s delivering so far is absolutely incredible. I’ll be switching to growth fertilizers soon (they’re on the way), but for now, I’m sticking with Formulex, and it’s honestly blowing my mind. Environmental Conditions Not much has changed on that front. The environment is still dialed in: • Temperature: ~22-23°C during the day, 18°C at night. • Nutrient solution temp: Holding steady at 17-18°C. • pH levels: Hovering around 5.8-6.0—had to adjust it slightly during the week, but nothing major. It’s stable overall. • VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit): Still around 0.6, which seems to be working well. As long as it stays below 0.8, I think we’re in the sweet spot. • Humidity: Holding at 70%. Everything’s been pretty stable, and it looks like the plant is loving it. Major Work This Week – Defoliation & Topping This week was huge in terms of plant training. The foliage was getting super dense, so I went in for a heavy defoliation, removing all the big fan leaves. On top of that, I topped the plant—cut the main shoot to redirect energy towards the secondary branches. The goal is to push those side branches so they can take full advantage of the SCROG I just set up! Now, it’s all about recovery. Hopefully, she bounces back strong, and we can really start working that SCROG. Alright, that’s it for this week! Let’s keep an eye on things and see how she responds. Super excited to check in next week and see how she evolves. 🇫🇷Semaine 3🇫🇷 – Explosion de croissance & Premier palissage De retour pour l’update de la semaine ! La Mother Gorilla part en vrille, elle pousse à une vitesse folle et franchement, je suis super content. La plante est ultra vigoureuse, et les feuilles sont juste énormes. Certaines atteignent 21 cm de longueur, c’est complètement dingue. Je crois que je n’ai jamais vu ça avant. Et franchement, je dois le dire—je suis vraiment impressionné par le Formulex de chez Growth Technology. J’utilise exactement la même solution nutritive depuis le début, et les résultats sont juste dingues. C’est un produit hyper simple, mais ce que ça donne pour l’instant, c’est vraiment incroyable. Je vais bientôt passer sur les engrais de croissance (ils sont en commande), mais en attendant, je continue avec Formulex, et ça me bluffe complètement. Conditions Environnementales Pas de gros changements de ce côté-là, tout est toujours bien calé : • Température : ~22-23°C en journée, 18°C la nuit. • Température de la solution nutritive : Toujours 17-18°C. • pH : Entre 5.8 et 6.0—j’ai dû l’ajuster un peu dans la semaine, mais rien de bien méchant. Globalement, c’est stable. • VPD (Déficit de Pression de Vapeur) : Toujours aux alentours de 0.6, ce qui a l’air de bien convenir. Tant qu’on ne dépasse pas 0.8, on est bien. • Humidité : 70% constants. Tout est super stable et visiblement, la plante kiffe ça. Travaux de la semaine – Défoliation & Topping Cette semaine, grosse session d’entretien. La canopée devenait hyper dense, donc j’ai fait une bonne défoliation, en enlevant toutes les grosses feuilles. J’ai aussi topé la plante—j’ai coupé l’apex principal pour rediriger l’énergie vers les branches secondaires. L’idée, c’est de booster les secondaires pour qu’elles profitent à fond du SCROG que je viens d’installer ! Maintenant, elle doit récupérer. J’espère qu’elle va repartir de plus belle et qu’on va vraiment pouvoir bosser ce SCROG. Voilà pour cette semaine ! On garde un œil sur tout ça et on voit comment elle évolue. Hâte de voir ce que ça va donner la semaine prochaine ! 🤘😎

Lesson learned - wet leaves + close lamps fry plants! Plant seems to be bouncing back in a big way. Watered with a garden globe kept it mostly moist, had a couple dry days and today Apr 4 watered from the bottom in a tub for two hours. taken out of tub and placed back on riser twenty minutes before lights on. Photo taken three hours later after some minor defoliation and tucking. Seems like flowering is happening and timing wise we turned the corner just in time for plant health and environment correction. Loving the aquarium rock top layer over soil for aesthetic and love the vivid green on this plant what a beauty! thank you to sweet seeds for a tough baby girl who is turning into a fine young woman! Any and all feedback welcome this is a new hobby for me. Previously have started jalepeno peppers indoors and then moved to outdoor container for summer, but never a grow tent like this wow.

Day 29: Hey everyone! Quick update: all the plants are reacting really well to the new LED lights! 🌿💡 It's amazing to see how they respond to the change in light. I'm really excited to see how they progress over the next few days. Stay tuned for more updates!" Here's what I'm thinking: I believe removing some of the larger fan leaves to allow light to reach the lower branches could be beneficial. It would encourage more even growth and better bud development throughout the plant. What's your take on this? Day 35: "Hey everyone! Update time: We defoliated the plants two days ago, and they are developing nicely. 🌿 However, we're currently facing a challenge with the temperature. During the day, it gets above 28°C for about 4-5 hours. Despite our 360 m³/h exhaust system, we can't keep the humidity high enough to offset the heat, and our humidifier isn't powerful enough. I've calculated that we need a humidifier that can evaporate 1800ml/h to maintain the tent at 60-70% humidity, which would help manage the temperature better. Does anyone have tips for a good humidifier or other methods to control the humidity and temperature? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

May 9th - began today replacing the CMH lite that kicked-off during the night (new bulb is done!) MARS HYDRO to the rescue with a TS-1000 hanging above the kids now. Fine-tuning as we speak - began mixing a Tea for tonight/tomorrow’s dinner - LST to begin with a few of the plants this evening - Defoliated some of the large fan-leaf pairs and now the plant structures can be fortified and shaped - grabbed 6 clones from the Panama Reds and 2 each from Fighting Buddha and Pine Tar Kush !!! Into the LED Dome (And i’m out of cubes… profanity) - some branches get tied down tonight; let the games begin 10th, - Nutrients fed for breakfast - how to say this: things are so steady with daily progression - raised lights again to maintain 2c difference between Room temp / Top-Leaf temp. My Phlizon 4500 is almost topped out in the room, and its running at 50% power. This last blast of growth and transition within the plants, tells me this set-up is going to last Just long enough !!! Just big enough - 2 more weeks come on! - a few more clones taken last-nite; cloudwalker / black tuna / lsd / alaskan purple etc etc PurpsBerry will be last clone taken - no foliar misting on Food mornings like today; every other day is still the target here in mid-Veg 11th, - while rummaging through the crop early today, I found what is certainly a Male Panama Red plant. Action taken and trying to secure that new home. Picture 11, 12, 13 - Panama Red #2 removed - Foliar Misted the Tent at lites-out - clones treated to a Foliar Misting. Feeding them through their already developed Stomata on the leaves; when they have no roots to uptake nutrients yet. “Thanks Andrew at LegacyMarketFarm for that detail” May 14 - the one plant i took real pride in FIMming successfully, has also raised the Kilt and declared his Gonads; dammit. So, he’s gone lol. 2 males out of 38 plants… (txerri bilbo haze, the very first of many seeds produced alongside killer bud to show Male) - 2 LSD clones appear to be doing well May 15th - Foliar Misted after Lites-out

Defoliated, trimmed and up sized pots
