Put in new tent plus 1 more 65 watt led.light :))))

Approaching week 5 of flower. Ladies are healthy as can be. No signs of deficiency or stress. Increased bloom nutrient feed. Removed Grow nutrient from feed.

All in all a great genetic. Grew into insane colas. The photos above are of only half the total yeild as I have 8oz bagged up and sealed. After a weeks curing it has improved but not enough to really blow me away. I'll be back to seek my revenge in the future but for now its goodbye.

Good little week. Bit early posting but that's ok. Been finding the new growth in coming in a bit lighter shade of green then darkening up. Measured the height of them as well and last few weeks I had not updated that part. Started some new Dill as I ate all the other stuff and started some Chives too, got this stuff shipped in from Poland right as the postal strike happened in Canada so it was sitting around somewhere for a good month and a bit. Excited to try this dill as its said to be supper dilly and its essential oil content is to be stronger then other varieties. I think its true as I could smell the seeds though the international packaging. The chives I saw had three varieties and did not know they existed so I got all 3 to try out and see what ones I like best. Jemna, Erecta and Perga, The site said Prega are early and have a sharp taste to them, Erecta is mind and delicate with upright growth and the Jemna are thick and juicy. Added in some BSM to this grow as I feel the soil life is extra hungry with all the other microbe boosters and things going into the mix, also gave it a bit of Mg from Epsom salts as its kinda low in the products and don't want it running out in stretch. then topped it all off with some fish, Still looks to be having some N tox but getting better. I cleared up some leaves that where touching the soil line as I don't like that. and some others fell off when I was cleaning the tent. Don't have pics of the mini plants, CBG and CBDv but they are doing good as well. impressed with their size in the small pot. The one GTR THCv is still having issues but drank a good amount of its water, so it got a half amount to keep it happy. Hopefully in the next week or two it will be on par with the others. Found some more gnats in the fan blades but nothing infesting the pots after adding nematodes. And one of the leaves from the corner CANUK CBD plant looked a bit spotted like mite bites but I don't think that's was it id as I can not find any on the underside or webs and it was only isolated on that one leaf. But will keep an eye out for the little 2dot fuckers. I think that's it.

welcome to Day 15 1/1/20 she is growing very fast and healthy and the auto pot sys seems to be working properly. from here on out i should not need to water manually and can relax a bit feel free to drop a like or comment. as always happy growing and keep your stick on the ice

May 17, 2024 Day 92 This is the last week of the Flowering phase. I'll be harvesting most likely next midweek or earlier. The goal is to harvest by the end of the week, but I don't think they will be done. Banana Purple Punch A looks amazing! Her branches are nice and leaning. Not too much, just enough. She's also starting to show signs of fade. Or at least unhappy leaves turning yellow. One weird thing I noticed is the back leaves all have signs of nitrogen toxicity. What's weird is that I haven't used nitrogen in over a week and the last time I used it, I did a quarter dose. This should not be happening. I'm confused. Other than that, it's the end and I'm not worried about it, but it's still weird. Any insight? Banana Purple Punch B looks great as well. Tons of orange pistils and lots of frost. What's nice is that a lot of that frost is still clear trichomes. Imagine what they will look like in the end. I'm so excited! Both plants still have water in their basins, so I'm going to let them drain out and most likely not water again. It should be about a week for them to dry out completely. Perfect timing for harvest. I may put Banana Purple Punch A in a dark period while Banana Purple Punch B finishes up for a couple days. I'm doing the same thing with my Tropicana Cookies. Lighting. Well, it hasn't changed. Lol. Duh. Hahahahaha. Another week of this light intensity. I've all but given up on the environment. It's got tons of airflow and lots of light. The temp is fine. It's just the damned humidity. I give up. I'll just keep removing the plants from the tent as need be. I didn't touch Banana Purple Punch A today though. She is propping up the last Tropicana Cookies for the next 2 days. I will however, make sure to inspect her as much as I can. And as soon as she is freed up, I'll be flipping her around. And pulling her away from the side of the tent. Same with Banana Purple Punch B. Both are squished for the moment. I also managed to get all 4 Sour Diesel plants in the tent after pulling one of the Tropicana Cookies. So these ladies are a bit tight for now. But only for a couple of days. If that. I was considering putting the Sour Diesel in the back and keeping the Tropicana Cookies up front for ease of access, but that will just cause chaos with bendy floppy branches. So I'm leaving it. It all fits. Snug as the Tetris skills I had to use to make it happen. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.4° RH: 61.4% VPD: 1.17 kPa Quick update on lighting: I had to increase the light power up to 80% for the Sour Diesels now in the tent. They were at like 16 mol/m²/d instead of the 20 to 25 mol/m²/d it should be. Anyway, so the light was increased. It didn't change much. Some spots went back up to 40 mol/m²/d, and some went up to 38 mol/m²/d. Overall the spread is 34 to 40 mol/m²/d. These 2 should t have any issues with the light increase. I wonder if it will help along the maturing process. I don't know science. Maybe the dark does? Maybe they both do and just in different ways. Yah, that's it. May 18, 2024 Watering day. Both ladies got a full gallon reservoir refill of plain water today. No sense in running the Flawless Finish anymore. They have mere days left to maybe a week. I'll just keep extending the time until I'm right. Lol. Hopefully it will be the last watering. Neither plant is thirsty at all, so it should take around a week for the reservoirs to empty. Banana Purple Punch A looks great! She is nearly ready. No fade yet though. I don't really understand. Is she not fading because she isn't done yet? Or is this just how it's going to be? Insight? Lol. Banana Purple Punch B is coming along nicely. I don't think she is near done yet. I don't get why they are taking so long. Either way, when she's done, there will be some amazing bud. The light isn't hurting anything that I can tell. So it will stay the same. The environment is an absolute mess now. With more power to the light comes more heat. Now I'm stuck in the mid 60s for humidity and 78° for the temp. All bad. I've been checking each plant for mold, mildew, bud rot and anything else that doesn't look right. So far we're safe. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.4° RH: 64.2% VPD: 1.06 kPa Can you say horrible environment? I'm so screwed. Even if I don't get any issues like bud rot, the humidity is doing a toll on trichome production. Update: After some research, I have found that high humidity can cause plant production to slow down significantly. That could be the problem I'm facing right now. My humidity is entirely way too high and the plants aren't able to take in water. And some other science I'm sure. Also, I've noticed the leaves on Banana Purple Punch A are really shiny and clawing just like nitrogen toxicity, but I'm in the second week of plain water and flushing agent. What gives? If anyone knows, I would greatly appreciate a comment or a DM. Thanks! May 19, 2024 Not a lot to do today. No watering or trichomes. Banana Purple Punch A is being weird with this nitrogen toxicity during flush. How would that work? Anyway, her leaves are starting to die off a little but no fade. Still, she has huge buds that smell wonderful. Banana Purple Punch B is starting to show a bit of color in her leaves. Just a hint of purple but just a hint. If she fades, it won't be for a bit. But it's time I don't really have. Let's hope she starts to fade quickly. Both have been in plain water for a week and before that a week of Flawless Finish. Must be more nutrients in the soil. Nothing to talk about with lighting. We all know where it's at. The environment. I'm really confused. So a week of high humidity and my room is also humid. Today, it's low humidity and my room is still high. Even with the door open from outside it's still high. Why? What sorcery is this? Anyway, the tent is still stuck at 65% humidity and temps are down to 73°. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 68.3% VPD: 0.84 kPa May 20, 2024 We are starting to fade! Finally! Both ladies are starting to fade in their own way. No watering today. They definitely don't need it at all. Maybe a half gallon before the drying period. Banana Purple Punch A is fading in her own messed up unhappy way. Her leaves are super shiny and clawing like she has nitrogen toxicity, but she's flushing. I don't get it. Leaves are canoeing and turning yellow. Maybe this is her fading in the most messed up way. But she's fading. Some of her leaves are starting to get a purple hue. Her buds are super fat and stinky. It's wonderful. Banana Purple Punch B is the picture of a perfect small plant. She is fading like a normal plant. She's getting purple hues on her leaves, buds are developing purple as well. By the end, I hope to have a couple deep purple plants. I'm still wondering why it's taking so long. They should have been done weeks ago. The lighting is the same. The environment is the same. Although, it dropped to 40% outside yesterday and the humidity stubbornly stayed in the mid 60s. It makes no sense. Anyway, I'm stuck at 65% still and the temp is finally under control again. I have it a bit low for the last bit of flowering at 73° it's going to be hot today, so I'm hoping my room stays cool. Maybe the humidity will drop again and I can try to get the humidity to come down. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 67.7% VPD: 0.86 kPa May 21, 2024 Trichome day! Some good things happening today. Both ladies are looking great! They finally have some fade going on. Not a lot, but some. Banana Purple Punch A is almost out of water. I'm going to let her dry out a bit more and then add another half gallon to her reservoir. Her trichomes are starting to show more amber. Maybe 5% now? About 10% clear and the rest are cloudy. She still has a bit more time to go. I'd say another 5 to 7 days? Maybe slightly less? Hopefully slightly less. Banana Purple Punch B has a saturated bottom. I think it's because the roots never grew out of the container, so the soil is sucking up all the water and I guess the roots are not? I'm not sure, but I can def say that she is barely drinking. I'll pull the wicks tomorrow. Her trichomes are looking great. She has around the same as her sister plant. About 5% amber, 10% clear and the rest cloudy. Both plants have huge dense buds. I can only imagine how much more dense they will get over the next few days while they finish up. We finally got the central air on in the house. It made all the difference in the environment. Well, that was until it shut off and then my room needed assistance. In the form of wet cold air. Definitely not good there, but the AC will kick on in no time. It's 80° out today, so I expect the central air to kick on anytime now. When it's on, the humidity drops to 56% and the temp stays at 74°. Very nice. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.7° RH: 62.9% VPD: 1.00 kPa May 22, 2024 Nothing to do today with these two. I might have to water Banana Purple Punch A in a little while. I was hoping I could get away with it, but I think she is dried up enough for another half gallon of tap water PHed to 6.1. Banana Purple Punch A looks good but has clear signs of previous stress. Interesting. Her tops are leaning even harder now. Those buds must be super heavy. The branches are pretty thick. Banana Purple Punch B looks amazing. Purple is coming in quickly. Her buds are definitely denser and fatter now. Probably as big as they will get. Now it's just time for her to mature. I have a small problem. I have 1 Tropicana Cookies left and 4 Sour Diesels in pre-flower in the tent as well. Suffice it to say, I need to make room for the Sour Diesels to stretch. And that could start anyway now. I'm concerned I'm going to run into massive crowding and cause mold. As it is, the humidity is still really high, so I don't want to risk it. All that being said, I might now be able to wait for perfect doneness with these ladies. I might have to harvest them in a matter of a couple days. The last Tropicana Cookies in the tent should be pulled either tomorrow or the next day, unless the Sour Diesels start to significantly stretch, then all three including these two will have to be pulled. So there you go have it. My current issue is space for 7 plants in a 3x3 tent. I know, I'm ridiculous. But you gotta do what you gotta do. On a side note, I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong to always have plants go way past their time. Seriously, it kind of messes with my schedule. For example the Sour Diesels. Those were planted on 4/20 and these ladies were supposed to be fully done a week later. But it's been 4 more weeks and they still aren't done. Total wrench in my plans. What could I be doing wrong? The environment is still a mess. The central air hasn't kicked on yet, so I'm relying on my own portable AC. The problem with that is it blows out really humid air when the compressor kicks off. So my humidity is high again. Over 60% yet again. The temp is fine at 75°. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.7° RH: 59.4% VPD: 1.20 kPa May 23, 2024 Last day of the week and we have some real purple coming in now. Especially on Banana Purple Punch B. Most of her tops are now a nice deep purple. Leaves are also getting the nice purple hue as well. Banana Purple Punch A looks great. Lots of leaning branches now. She should be ready for harvest in just a few days. Not as much purple as I'd hoped, but it's fine. Her buds still look fantastic. Banana Purple Punch B is quite nice. She has super heavy tops and should be ready in maybe 5 days. There's still too many white pistils on the lowers. I can't express how nicely the purple is coming in. A little late from what I've seen in other grows, but here nonetheless. She still hasn't finished her gallon of water and it's been well into a week. I think I'll turn off the bottom feed system for her tomorrow. It should be perfect timing for her last week of life. I definitely cannot change the lighting for these two. The Sour Diesels need more of it. I'll have to drop it down soon, they are growing pretty fast and starting to seriously pray. Too much. So the light will remain her for now. I might still lower the light and turn down the intensity. I'm not sure yet. The environment is starting to calm down. Not quite fast enough for my liking to be honest. Currently the temp is around 76.5° and the humidity is still high at 61%, but it will drop in a little while. Maybe we can get down to 50% today. Update: I've decided to give these two no more than a week to finish up. Both of the Tropicana Cookies are out now and they are taking around 5 days to dry, maybe 7. But no longer than that. The other reason is the Sour Diesels that are now sharing the tent are in pre-flower and will need the space ASAP. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.2° RH: 60.6% VPD: 1.18 kPa

This week was great girls are super happy gaining weight n gettin frosty....kicking it in final drive

Day 66. First girl down, found Bud Rot, so even happy to chop her ! Fastest plant ever, 66 days from seed touching soil !!! Day 74. Second down and bud rot again !!! Lost nicest part of the plant ... In panic chopped two other girls too early and one close to good time.... But now the rest have more space ... Day 78. First girl jared. Day 84. Second girl is curing. Happy Growing !

Just a few more days to chop🔪✂️

Day 83: After being in the dark for like 4-7 days, they where ready to harvest. All plants getting cut by the machine, big buds are cut by hand. I never weight wet buds because that doesnt make any sence. I will update soon on how much it is dry weight. My friend helped me with the harvest since it takes many hours of work. I have many buds that are as big or bigger as my hand. Quallity so far looks promising even thought there are shitty buds as well, but thats normal and oke. They have been cut freshly so I won't lose much weight when cutting. This will happen when cutting dry buds. The remaining small leafs on the wet buds will dry in with the buds and will be barely visible. More info soon.

15 hrs 31 mins daylight as of today Everyone is settling in well after the transplant last week, they seem very happy are are definitely shooting up. I removed the support hoops for the row cover because the Blueberry has grown above it. Speaking of, it is the only Blueberry because the other 2 went to live with my friend. She's about to start another round of chemo pills, which she told me she has to do for the next 5 years😩 It's terrible, and I wish I could do more for her. Not much to report this week as this girl is very happy. Unfortunately it seems there's some technical issues here on GD. The past couple weeks my diaries haven't been updating properly, and the 2 diaries I started last week for my autos are missing. They don't show up under my "Diaries" tab, which says there's 17 but only shows 15. I also tried searching for the 2 missing diaries by strain and by diary name, and couldn't locate them. Anybody else having issues? Update 6/26- I totally forgot to add that on Monday the garden got a spraying of horn manure. Horn manure is a biodynamic preparation of cow manure that's been fermented in a buried horn. This results in a material that's teeming with beneficial flora and fauna for the soil. Ideally it would be sprayed prior to planting in the spring as it encourages healthy root growth. I purchased the pre-potenized so that I only had to spend 20 mins stirring rather than an entire hour. That would have been brutal😵 I sprayed it at night when the earth is breathing in and used a spruce bough to sprinkle it over the plants in the garden. The extra icing on the cake was that there was a rain the day before, and another the day after I sprayed so it was well watered in.

Coming along beautiful have tied there stalk to support and topped one of them

I'm not sure if it's genetics, grow environment, nutrients, or all the love and attention I have gave them but the ladies have become MONSTERS! I wouldn't believe you if you told me they were autos. I had to go and buy a huge tent just to house them. They are in full on flower and smell fantastic and aside from the nute burn I got early on they look healthy. Went ahead and added a new 2000W LED cob just to make sure these huge ladies got the proper penetration for their size. Interested in seeing how much adding to the light spectrums will help them continue to fill out. I will be working out of town this week hoping my girlfriend can keep them alive while I'm gone.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 07/12/2019 - Fed her 2l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each Grow, Bloom, Max and Alga-mic, and 1ml of each Heaven and Vera,noticed about 10% run off, also added a green filter to the camera lens. Adjusted the light distance to 55cm again it was toooo close about 32cm. 10/12/2019 - Decided to go back and check the basics, removed led strip to give a proper 'night' time, changing light cycle to 20/4h no more 'exotic' 22/2h, re-checked the light distance every 2 to 3 days to ensure 60-45cm and I can tell all ready she is loving it. Also added home made Co2 made with 1 tsp of yeast, 3/4 tsp of sugar 700ml of warm water in a 1l bottle with a tiny pin hole on the cap. 11/12/2019 - Fed her 1.5l of 6.5PH water with 0,5ml of each Grow, Bloom, Max and Alga-mic, and 1ml of each Heaven and Vera,noticed about 10% run off. 12/12/2019 - 8 weeks have passed and no flowers I guess I'm flipping to 1212h to see if she reacts.

(Week 34)Realized that my plants looked a little phos deficient. BioGrow has plenty so i adjusted my ph back down to 5.8 plants looking allot happier. Using baking soda as ph up, very little needed.

All good here. Except for the fact that I might not be LSTing correctly, oh well this is my first grow so...😺👍
