The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Coop Poop, Feather Meal, and Soluble Kelp are ml/gallon of soil top dressed. Everything else listed in nutrients is ml/gallon of water fed to plants without checking the solution Ph. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 88°F with clear sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons per pot with well water. I added 75 ml Coop Poop, 100 ml feather meal and 50ml soluble kelp top dressed. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 74°F with sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons. These girls were still a little hungry Day 3 we had a high temperature of 79°F with partly cloudy skies. Today I fed 5 gallons liquid feed mixture with 40ml of Agrothrive Fruit and Flower 3-5-5 and 80ml of Biogreaux Molasses 1 - .5 - 5. Day 4 we had a high temperature of 85°F with sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons of well water per pot. Day 5 I didn't get photos but it was a normal day. Lots of sunshine highs about 80°F. I watered about 5 gallons Day 6 we had a high temperature of 79°F. Skies were sunny and it's really feeling like fall. I watered the #3 about 5 gallons. The number two got 5 gallons of feed. The feed was 100 ml of AgroThrive Fruit and Flower 3-5-5 and 40ml of Biogreaux Black Strap Molasses. I fed the #1 a 5 gallon nutrient solution that contained 120ml of AgroThrive General Purpose 3-3-2. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 73°. It was sunny, cool, and a dry 35% humidity. The girls are super happy. I watered about 5 gallons today. This week was a success. The girls have reached their final height. The #3 is at exactly 10'. Thats measured from the top of the pot to the top of the plant. I continue to treat weekly for powdery mildew. Finally the weather is cooperating. I let the canopy get a little out of hand but she's still producing. Only the number 2 smells like white cake. The others have a lemony smell to them.

🌱 Week 2 – Vegetative Growth 09/27: Started the day noticing chlorosis on some leaves. The pattern matches an iron deficiency: interveinal chlorosis mainly on the newer leaves. After checking, this seems to be caused by a nutrient lockout, consistent with the high substrate pH since the beginning of the grow. Lesson learned for next time. Performed a heavy flush with 20 L of water per plant. Runoff dropped from EC 1200 → 500 and pH 7.1 → 6.7. From now on, I’ll water with enough solution to get ~20% runoff each time instead of just ~250 ml. Will also lower input pH to 5.6–5.7 to gradually bring substrate pH down into range. Noticed that some plants have started to give off a light smell 🌿. 09/28: Each plant watered with 1 L at pH 5.6, EC 950. Solution included 3 ml/L CalMag + 0.8 ml/L Coco A + 0.8 ml/L Coco B + 1 ml/L Deeper Underground. Runoff EC not measured (since heavy flush was done yesterday). Runoff pH still unchanged, same as yesterday (~6.7). Yesterday I lowered the light, today increased it back to 13.5k lux. Chlorosis is still advancing, hoping successive irrigations will help bring substrate pH down. 09/29: Watered again but with 500ml this time. Solution (same recipe as yesterday) at pH 5.6. Surprisingly, runoff pH rose higher than yesterday, now at 7.0, with EC 700. Light intensity increased to 14.5k lux. 09/30: Watered with 500 ml at pH 5.6, EC 1050. Solution included 3 ml/L CalMag (new bottle — seems to add more EC than the old one) + 1 ml/L Coco A + 1 ml/L Coco B + 1 ml/L Deeper Underground. Runoff measured EC 700–800, pH 7.0. Since the flush, stems have thickened significantly 💪. 10/01: Watered with 1 L at pH 5.6, EC 1200. Solution included 2.5 ml/L CalMag + 1 ml/L Coco A + 1 ml/L Coco B + 1 ml/L Deeper Underground. Runoff measured EC 650, pH 7.0. Substrate pH still not dropping, but plants are growing at a good pace. Only two plants continue to show chlorosis, while all show a noticeable thickening of stems this week. 10/02: Significant vertical growth observed — most plants stretched about 8 cm in the last 3 days. Watered again with the same solution as yesterday, but only 500 ml per plant. Input pH 5.6, runoff pH still at 7.0, EC 600–700. Chlorosis persists, and on one plant with symptoms, small brown spots appeared, suggesting a possible manganese deficiency. Also noticed what look like early pre-flowers (tiny pistils) on two plants, though it feels early for day 20. 10/03: Watered with the same solution as previous days (pH 5.6, EC 1200). Runoff remained stable at pH 7.0, EC ~600–700. Based on uptake, I plan to progressively raise input EC until EC in ≈ EC out. Gradually increasing VPD range, target for Week 3 is 1.0–1.2 kPa. --- 📝 Week 2 Summary 🚩 Main challenge: persistent high runoff pH (~7.0) causing chlorosis, initially resembling iron deficiency but later showing signs closer to manganese deficiency (brown spotting). Heavy flush reduced EC, but pH correction is progressing slowly. Plants responded with strong stem thickening and rapid vertical growth (+8 cm in 3 days). Aroma starting to appear on some plants 🌿. ⚡ Light stabilized around 14–15k lux, with adjustments to avoid stress. 🌱 Despite issues, most plants are vigorous, only 2 showing stronger deficiency symptoms. ➡️ Plan for Week 3 Irrigation: Increase input EC gradually until it balances with runoff (~EC in = EC out). Maintain runoff at ~20% each watering. pH management: Keep input pH at 5.6–5.7 to push substrate down from current ~7.0. VPD: Raise target range to 1.0–1.2 kPa for optimal transpiration. Light: Hold intensity ~14.5k lux, slight increases only if no stress observed. Monitoring: Track chlorosis spots closely — see if new growth improves once substrate stabilizes. Pre-flowers: Keep observing possible pistils.

OK this was my 1st grow and I set everything up went through all my controls and away to go ... wrong after pre flower came I couldn't understand why I wasn't getting these ladies to flip.... So I went through everything with runoff feeds Everything you can think of except my timers on the lights and this low and behold was the problem!! where I was going to the tent at similar times everyday the light was on and the timers were set right on the clock except I didn't see the switch on the side that makes the timer work continuously or to how the clock is set....🙈😔 Found this and away to go my ladies had some well needed sleep and away to go they flipped By now these had all bushed right out but were getting no tricomes I now had a hell of a load of feeds and kept up the way I was feeding Water Water Feed and all 4 plants in my tent were all heading for the finish line at the same time.... And now I've cut the Northern and the jack down and from my northern lights I had 200g dry weight I didn't do a wet weight it was too hard to do in the space I had (too many colas and massive nugs along with the stragglers that were lost in amongst it all ) She was really resilient and to have come through all those weeks of no rest and only light for 24hrs continuously I'm surprised that I've got this far Flavours and smells are great and the smoke isn't the strongest but when cure now I will see how this little lady comes on I'm happy for my 1st and have learned so much throughout this journey I will update with more but the next diary will be of the other lady in the tent and will give a more detailed explanation of the full journey but as far as crop goes she gave and gave and gave that little more !! Thanks all for following and I hope my next write up will be all the more detailed for u 😀 As she drys mire and more and I've got the exact weight down her figures are not really changing as I've dried her down as much as I want to ....even if this was something that I wanted to keep as a heavier product weather it was for keeping for myself which is what I will be doing rather than to try to get extra weight if I was doing this grow for resale, but this was never the case it was always a grow I've done to help lower my own smoking costs for my own gain and not resale... So again very happy as these final weights are getting revised there will be more to add to the weight with 1 more plant on the harvest but almost double if not more than doubling what I have already put on but I will change my numbers to 2 lots p .tent and an extremely challenging massive yield OMG 😲 she has yes given given and given more beyond more !!!!

Plant has been steadily growing. Picking up pace. Still not as much as I'd like. The uppoting was a bit of a let-down. I was expecting to see much more root development which would of sped the process adapting to her new pot. But, looking at it. I know. I'll have to focus on roots for the next 10 days or so. And then I'm hoping to see much more rapid growth like I was before I uppoted. Week 2 Days 22-28 Days 22 Uppoted to a 9L on Day 22. Was pretty straight forward and easy. Day 23 I removed the 1st fingered leaves/nodes as there was no stress signs so I want her to start pushing the nodes up above once she has her week of root growing. As she won't grow much until she's settled. Added 350ml of Silica/Master root/Enzymes ph'ed to 6.7. Days 24-2 Days 24-26 She's doing well in her new 9L pot. Not craving for food atm. She is only in fresh grow mix a few days. I did add another dose of Enzymes&Master Root ph'ed to 6.7 Days 27-28 D27 She is finally setting into her pot. I added 300ml of Enzymes/Master Root ph'ed to 6.7. I rotated the pot and show the other side of the stronger ppf. Soon I will higher the lux from 13-15 Average I will change it to 18-25. D28 Update: She's showing slight twists in the leaves. Hasn't grown much. I'll wait a few more days. But, if I don't see rapid growth in a few days. I'll have to explore options.

More Flowering! The rest of the strains started to catch up, but nanners started showing in the hermies and TP started to overripen with orange hairs. I would've gone extra days if there were no nanners, but it wasn't worth it to risk seeding the nugs, I'll just have to settle with more larfy buds. Going to start flushing next week.

Hey everyone ☺️. It gets more beautiful from week to week 😍👍. I have them all this week Sprayed again properly with neem oil in the veggie phase ☺️. There have been no trips for 2 weeks, but prevention is better 😀. Because of the neem oil, the plants look very dark and shiny, which I really like when they shimmer like that 😝. I didn't do any training these days, that will be done again the next few days 👌. it was watered twice this week with around 0.6 l per plant. The Ph / Ec measuring device was also recalibrated. Otherwise there is nothing to report for this week and we'll see you again with the next update ☺️👍. I wish you and your families a Merry Christmas 😊.

Casey's Rollex OG is making good progress. She is looking pretty healthy. She just had a solution change today. She is starting her bulking process. She also is getting a nice layer of resin on her. She is starting to develop her smell. I just can't really pin point what it smells like at the moment. Everything is looking good. Thank you Spider Farmer, and DutchFem Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇.

Tag 53: Ab heute beginnt die Blüte bei der Chocolate Haze. Obwohl ich sie vor 2 Tagen nochmals entlaubt habe, ist die Pflanze schon wieder enorm gewachsen 😳 Ich hoffe ich kriege sie in der Blüte gebändigt 😬
