Ended up cutting all of the front left plant this week and majority of the back two plants. Guna let the lowers get some light for a few more days. Really noticing all the tiny ass buds. Hopefully I'll make something out of them. First run with a net and I just left way too many branches/bud sites for this size of plants they were. Buds look good though. Flushing last plant and will be cutting in a few days.

Noticing signs of too much nitrogen. Flushed with 3 gallons of water on Day 16, and another 2 gallons on Day 17. Plant is looking great and thriving despite having a big split that doesnโ€™t look to be coming back together. Iโ€™m thinking the plant may be re-routing itโ€™s stem. Itโ€™s getting nutrients somehow!

2024-04-25 the ove to the other Roo with stronger Light, pushed her massive, so i have to transplant them into bigger Pots. they have alittle N defiency, but soon its history, because they get 10l ore Soil now. BREEDER INFO Tangerine Snow F1 Fast Feminised is a 75% sativa, four-way cross of (Boost x Tangelo) with (Lavender x Power Plant). This Fast F1 hybrid is bred from Cali genetics and boasts great citrus terps, high resin production for extracts, high levels of THC, very good yields and excellent mould resistance. Tangerine Snow F1 Fast can be grown indoors as well as outdoors. Indoor flowering times are between 8 - 10 weeks while harvest time in northern latitudes is during September while in the southern hemisphere growers will be harvesting during March. Recommended climate regions are hot, dry, humid and warm. These are tall, semi-branched plants that grow in excess of 200cm and display a high degree of vigour with very good uniformity. In common with many other heavily sativa-dominant strains, Tangerine Snow F1 Fast offers excellent resistance to mould as well as to plant pests and diseases. The combination of citrus terps and plenty of resin makes thi a very good extract strain with the 'washing' method delivering very good yields of hash. The citrus terpene profile is reminiscent of mandarins and tangerines and also has sweet candy notes. THC production has been lab-verified at a strong 24% while CBD is low. The effect is uplifting and energising, perfect for use during the day and early evening.

๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ 8ร—8 Adventure โ€“ Week 14 Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno B ๐Ÿ‘‘ Big Mama's Next Chapter: From Beast to Frozen Treasure! ?๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒธ Welcome back to another chapter of the 8ร—8 Adventure! ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š And today, my friendsโ€ฆ We need to talk about Big Mama. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ Our other Black Diamond. Our heavyweight. Our beautiful beast. The girl who never really needed to be the tallest, the prettiest, or the most delicate plant in the room to make herself noticed. She simply showed up, built herself into a magnificent plant, and made sure we knew she was there. And nowโ€ฆ Her time in the tent is over. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟโœ‚๏ธ Just like her sister, Black Diamond Auto Pheno A, Big Mama reached the point where it was time to move into the next chapter. Two sisters. Two different seeds. Two different expressions. One genetic family. And, in the endโ€ฆ TWO ABSOLUTE BEASTS. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž But although their stories are similar, they haven't been identical. And that's exactly why I wanted to document them separately. Today, we're looking back at Big Mama's journey, explaining what happened after harvest, showing some of the photographs and statistics we managed to capture, and introducing the next stage of her adventure. Because this girl hasn't disappeared. She's simply moving into a different chapter. And this time, we're taking a little detour into the world of ice, water, and bubble hash. ?๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ But before anybody gets too excitedโ€ฆ Let's start at the beginning. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ข FIRST, A LITTLE EXPLANATION ABOUT THIS REPORT You might notice that this update is still being published under a flowering week rather than as a dedicated harvest report. And you might also notice something elseโ€ฆ There aren't as many photographs of Big Mama as there were of her sister. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ Both things have an explanation. First, GrowDiaries has a limit of 30 photographs per update, and our harvest documentation can quickly go beyond that limit when we include the final plant photographs, trimming, drying, weighing, and smoke review. Second, GrowDiaries doesn't provide a dedicated section specifically for documenting the extraction process we're planning to follow with Big Mama. So, rather than trying to squeeze everything into one update or leave out important parts of the story, we're using the available diary structure to keep documenting the journey. Depending on how many photographs and details we have to share, we may continue this story in the current week or create another update to give the next stage enough room. The goal is simple: Keep the documentation clear. Keep the photographs. Keep the story together. And don't leave out the interesting bits just because the platform's categories don't perfectly match what we're doing. ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ As for the smaller collection of photographsโ€ฆ Well, I have a confession. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ It was late. Actually, it was almost morning by the time I got around to her sister's harvest work, and by the time I reached Big Mama, the photographic energy was not quite what it had been earlier. The girl still got her attention. The work still got done. But the camera didn't get quite as much attention as it did with Pheno A. So yes, we have fewer photographs. That's the honest explanation. Sometimes the grower has a plan, the plants have their own schedule, and the clock decides to join the experiment. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ“ธ๐ŸŒ™ But fewer photographs don't mean a less important story. Big Mama deserves her own report, her own explanation, and her own spotlight. And that's exactly what we're doing. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’Ž TWO SISTERS, TWO SEEDS, TWO BEASTS Let's take a moment to look back at how we got here. Black Diamond Auto Pheno B was part of our 8ร—8 Adventure, where twelve plants shared the same general environment, lighting schedule, and overall approach to care. She grew under a 12/12 light schedule from seed, just like the other plants in this experiment. And throughout the journey, she developed her own personality. Her sister, Pheno A, had that striking appearance that kept making me stop and take another photograph. Big Mama? She brought her own kind of presence. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž She became a substantial plant, carrying beautiful flowers throughout her structure and eventually requiring support to help manage the weight. The yo-yos became part of the story. The flowers continued to develop. The plant kept making herself noticed. And week after week, she showed us that she wasn't simply going to be a copy of her sister. They may share the same genetic name, but they have their own individual expressions. And that's one of the things I love most about following individual phenotypes. You start with seeds. You provide a shared environment. You document the journey. And then you watch the plants show you who they are. Pheno A gave us one beautiful story. Pheno B gave us another. And now both girls have reached the end of their time in the tent. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ Two Black Diamonds. Two different personalities. Two beautiful plants. And two harvest stories worth documenting. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ‘‘ GOODBYE, BIG MAMA โ€” THE TENT CHAPTER IS OVER If you've been following her diary, you'll know that Big Mama wasn't exactly a shy girl. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ She had presence. She had structure. She had beautiful flowers. And she had enough weight to keep the yo-yo department employed. Her story was never just about how tall she grew or how much space she occupied. It was about how she developed, how her flowers formed, and how differently she expressed herself compared with her sister. That's what made her interesting. And when it was time to harvest, we moved into the next stage. We took her down, broke her down, and prepared the material for the direction we wanted to take with this particular harvest. But unlike her sister's report, which focused heavily on the studio photography and photo stacking, Big Mama's next chapter is going to explore something different. We're preparing her material for a planned bubble hash project. ?๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž And that's where things get interesting. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โœ‚๏ธ WHAT HAPPENED AFTER HARVEST? Once Big Mama was harvested, I broke the plant down and removed the unwanted leaves. The aim was to separate the material we wanted to keep from the leaves and other parts we didn't want included in the next stage. I then bagged the prepared material, vacuum-sealed it, and placed it in the freezer. Yesโ€ฆ Big Mama is currently enjoying a little holiday in the freezer. ๐Ÿ˜‚?๐Ÿ‘‘ Not quite the luxurious spa treatment she might have imagined, but that's where she is while we prepare for the next chapter. The material is frozen and waiting for the colder days ahead, when we'll continue with the planned ice-water extraction project. This is a different direction from simply following the traditional dried-flower route, and I'm looking forward to documenting the process properly. For now, the preparation has been done. The material has been bagged. It's vacuum-sealed. It's frozen. And we're waiting for the next stage. ?๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ We haven't completed the extraction yet, so this report isn't going to pretend that we have a final result. Instead, we're showing what we've done so far and explaining what comes next. That's how I like to document these projects. One step at a time. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ? WHAT IS BUBBLE HASH, AND WHY ARE WE GOING THIS ROUTE? For anyone unfamiliar with the term, bubble hash is a type of cannabis concentrate made by separating resin-rich trichome material from plant material using ice water and filtration. The name comes from the way well-made material can bubble when exposed to heat, although the quality and behaviour depend on the starting material and the final product. The basic concept is that trichomes are separated from the plant material, and the resulting material is collected through filtration. It isn't the same thing as simply drying and trimming flowers. It isn't the same thing as collecting resin from a glove. And it isn't automatically the same thing as charas. These are different materials made through different processes, even though they all relate to the resin produced by the plant. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ In Big Mama's case, the next stage we're planning is an ice-water extraction using water, ice, and a washing setup. We'll document the actual process in the next report, including the equipment, what we observe, the collected material, and how the results look. We'll also show how we handle the drying stage for the collected hash and discuss what happens afterwards. For now, we're introducing the project rather than jumping ahead to results we haven't produced yet. And honestly, I think that's the best way to do it. You get to follow the story from the preparation through to the final outcome. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฟ BUBBLE HASH IS NOT JUST ANOTHER NAME FOR RESIN I want to make this distinction clear because the terminology can sometimes get mixed together. The sticky resin we saw on the glove during Big Mama's breakdown was a visible reminder of the resin on the freshly harvested plant. That doesn't automatically make the material on the glove finished bubble hash, nor does it mean that every kind of collected resin is the same product. Bubble hash refers to a specific type of concentrate produced through ice-water separation and filtration. The material we have frozen right now is the prepared starting material for the project. The washing and filtration have not happened yet. So we're not calling it finished bubble hash at this stage. We're simply preparing for that next chapter. ?๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฑ And when we get there, we'll show you what happened rather than asking you to take our word for it. That's the whole point of documenting the process. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ“ธ FEWER PHOTOS, BUT STILL A STORY WORTH TELLING I know there aren't as many photographs of Big Mama's harvest as there were of her sister. And yes, I would have loved to capture more. But sometimes the timing simply doesn't work out the way we planned. By the time I got to Big Mama, it was almost morning. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐ŸŒ™ The important thing is that we still have photographs showing parts of the process, including the prepared material, the vacuum-sealed bags, and the weighing. Those images help us document what happened rather than simply writing that we did it. We also have photographs from earlier in her journey that show the beautiful plant she became. Together, they tell the story. The flowering photographs show the plant. The harvest photographs show the transition. The bagging and weighing photographs document the preparation. And the next set will show what happens when we move into the ice-water extraction project. ๐Ÿ“ธ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž Not every chapter needs the same number of photographs. What matters is that we capture the details that help explain the journey. And Big Mama's story is still very much worth telling. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ โš–๏ธ THE NUMBERS MATTER TOO Alongside the photographs, we've included some of the measurements and weighing information we managed to capture during this stage. Those details are useful because they help us keep a record of what happened rather than relying entirely on memory. The photographs give us the visual story. The numbers add another piece of the record. And as the project continues, we'll have more information to add. For now, I don't want to invent or estimate figures that aren't clearly established in the available documentation. We'll use the recorded values where they're available and keep the next report focused on the actual results of the process. That's how I want these diaries to work. Show what happened. Share what we observed. Keep the record honest. And let the results speak for themselves. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ“ธโš–๏ธ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ? THE FREEZER IS JUST THE BEGINNING At the moment, Big Mama's prepared material is vacuum-sealed and frozen. The next planned chapter is the ice-water washing process, where we'll document the separation and collection stage. After that, we'll have the collected material to assess and the drying stage to document. And later, we'll discuss what happens with the finished result. So there's still plenty to come. This isn't a finished extraction report. It isn't a final yield report. And it certainly isn't the smoke review. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž We're at the preparation stage. The next chapter will cover the actual washing project, and we'll explain the process as it happens, including the filtration, the collected material, and the drying. We'll also share what we learn along the way. Because that's what makes these experiments interesting. We don't need to pretend we know the result before we begin. We can prepare, document, observe, and report what actually happens. And that's exactly what we're going to do with Big Mama. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ก A QUICK LOOK BACK AT THE 8ร—8 ENVIRONMENT Before we move on, let's remember the environment in which Big Mama grew. She was part of the 8ร—8 Adventure, where the plants shared the same general room conditions and the 12/12 schedule from seed. The expanded lighting setup included the two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures, with the output controlled rather than simply running everything at maximum. We were targeting approximately 1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy, with actual intensity varying according to canopy position and plant height. Lumiflora provided additional lighting deeper in the canopy, while TrolMaster helped us monitor and manage the room environment. The room's general conditions during the recent flowering updates were around: ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Day temperature: approximately 26.5ยฐC ๐ŸŒ™ Night temperature: approximately 26ยฐC ๐Ÿ’ง Relative humidity: approximately 61% ๐ŸŒฑ Substrate temperature: approximately 25ยฐC โš—๏ธ Nutrient solution pH: approximately 6.02 โšก Nutrient solution EC: approximately 2.14 mS/cm ๐Ÿ’จ COโ‚‚: approximately 693 ppm ๐Ÿ’ก Light schedule: 12/12 These are the recent room references from the flowering stage, not the conditions of the separate drying space. Big Mama has now moved out of that room, and her next stage is being documented separately. The rest of the 8ร—8 is still going. The other plants are continuing their own journeys. And we're not changing their stories just because Big Mama has reached harvest. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐ŸŒฑ SAME GENETIC FAMILY, DIFFERENT EXPRESSIONS This is another reason I wanted to give Big Mama her own report. If you followed Pheno A, you saw one expression of Black Diamond Auto. If you follow Pheno B, you see another. They shared the same general growing environment, but they didn't become identical plants. One caught my eye more visually. The other became Big Mama, with her own substantial structure and personality. And that's perfectly fine. I don't need every plant to look the same. I don't need every phenotype to be my favourite. I want to see the differences. I want to document them. I want to learn from them. And I want to be honest about what I see. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘ Two seeds. Two sisters. Two beasts. Two different stories. And now, two different harvest journeys. Pheno A has her own harvest and photography story. Pheno B has her own preparation and planned bubble hash project. Both deserve to be documented properly. โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’š THE REST OF THE ROOM IS STILL GROWING One more important point before we close this update. Big Mama has been harvested, but the rest of the room has not. The other plants are still growing, developing, and following their own timelines. The 8ร—8 Adventure continues. We'll keep sharing their individual updates, their differences, their progress, and their own milestones. That's the beauty of this project. We don't force every plant into the same schedule just because they're sharing a room. Each plant gets to show us what she does. And when she's ready for the next stage, we document that too. Big Mama has reached her moment. Now we'll follow her through the next part of the journey while the others continue to shine in the tent. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฑ โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ”ฎ WHAT COMES NEXT FOR BIG MAMA? The next chapter is all about the ice-water extraction project. We'll be documenting the washing process, the separation and filtration, the collected material, and the drying stage. We'll also discuss the results and what we decide to do with the finished material afterwards. The actual outcome will determine what we can honestly report. For now, the material is bagged, vacuum-sealed, and waiting in the freezer. The next stage hasn't happened yet. And I'm looking forward to showing you how it unfolds. ?๐Ÿ’Ž๐ŸŒฟ This is another side of the growing journey that I enjoy documenting. The plant doesn't stop being interesting when it leaves the tent. There are still decisions to make, things to observe, and plenty to learn. So stay tuned. Big Mama's story has moved beyond flowering, but it isn't finished. Not even close. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ’ญ FINAL THOUGHTS โ€” BIG MAMA HAS LEFT THE TENT, BUT SHE'S NOT DONE WITH US Black Diamond Auto by Zamnesia โ€“ Pheno B. Our Big Mama. Our heavyweight. Our beautiful beast. ๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ‘‘๐ŸŒฟ I must confess that I would have liked to take more photographs during her harvest. It was late. Almost morning, actually. And by the time I got to her, the photographic session wasn't quite as extensive as the one I had done with her sister. But the work was done. The material was prepared. The unwanted leaves were removed. Everything was bagged, vacuum-sealed, and placed in the freezer, ready for the next stage. And now we're preparing to document a different part of her journey. The planned ice-water washing process. The filtration. The collected material. The drying. And eventually, what comes after. ?๐Ÿ’Ž We still have plenty to share. So please don't consider this the end of Big Mama's story. It's simply the end of her time in the flowering tent. Two Black Diamond sisters. Two different seeds. Two completely different expressions. And two beasts that have given us plenty to talk about. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘‘๐Ÿ’Ž Her sister might have received more photographs. Her sister might have stolen a little more of my photographic attention. But Big Mama? She has her own story. And she's getting her own spotlight. We're going to keep documenting the process, share the results honestly, and make sure her journey doesn't disappear simply because she's no longer standing in the tent. Thank you for following along. And stay tuned, because the next chapter is going to be a little different from our usual flowering updates. Big Mama is ready for her next adventure. ?๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’Ž โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€โ”€ ๐Ÿ™ THANK YOU โ€” AND COME JOIN OUR COMMUNITY!

Buds everywhereโ€ฆthe smell is also coming along. I gave her too much tiger bloom which is noticeable on her leaf tips but the benefits are worth it. I had an attack of the aphids trying to destroy the stem but I pulled out the spray and got rid of them. She takes training really well and bounces back from the pest attack quite nicely. I am also impressed with the way she leafed out after the defoliation.

Hello. Got the plants into the main grow room. There is 2 videos . In the first I just sit in the room quitly and turn the camera. you get a sense :) of what it's like in there. In the second I try to describe what's in the room, equipment and maybe a new technique. With the tomato cages I use, and needing the plant to slow down, I twist the stock into a large figure 8. Eventually I take off what is on the lower part of the 8, and just work the top of the 8. About 2 weeks in veg in this room. Then I take clones of everything before I switch to flower. >Carbon dioxide enhancement: I had to make that choice 20 years ago. I could, rent a tank and have my name on a list, at the gas store. Or make my own. They didn't have the small propane tanks like they do today for the blue flame you get when you burn it. I decided on a kerosene lamp burning down as low as it could be without going out. It makes a half blue and half yellow flame. I vent constantly so the small amount of carbon monoxide is not a problem. For the first week you can smell it a bit, but the smell disappears after that. I light the lamp in the morning and put it out at lights out (unless it's bed time). It needs to be put in a place in the room that cant get knocked over (pets, children, ?). I try to use extra attention whenever I use it. It can burn down the place. Be careful Please. >About 17 years ago I thought I'd lower my table by knocking a hole in the cement and dropping my 10 gallon reservoir more. I was able to lower it by 16 inches. Still have to watch the height of some plants though, it worked out well. Watch the video. > Air cleaner: The reason I got a big 8 inch exhaust fan was, I had a bout of powder mildew and needed better a exhaust system. When I plugged it in there was too much air moving. I phoned and asked and the salesman said that a dimmer switch wasn't a good idea. I put one on anyway. Works great. I have the fan barely on in the winter and about half way on in the middle of the summer. I haven't had any powdery mildew since. About 12 years ago I bought a good air cleaner. An ORECK, It has electrified plates that zap any organic particle or spore that come between the plates. Use to grow a Northern Lights that got 6 to 8 ounces per harvest, it grew big buds. Buds as big as my forearm. I had problems with gray mold attaching the buds. But none since I bought the air cleaner. Ya learn as you go.

Wow! These plants have bulked up like crazy this week. The cola on #2 is about 7" tall and 3" wide at it's center mass. The smell is crazy, overpowering almost, oranges and burnt motor oil. The trichomes are mostly cloudy right now, very little clear heads. The amber is just starting to show, almost like a blush. Waiting a couple more days for some more amber then harvesting!

Servus Moin! Die Super Lemon Haze macht sich bis jetzt ganz gut. Ich habe einige groรŸe Blรคtter weggenommen, das die unteren Triebe auch genug Licht bekommen.

Der Geruch wird intensiver! Es riecht so unglaublich lecker, etwas nach Haze und stark nach tropischen Frรผchten! Wachstum ist gut, die Blรผten werden schรถn dick :)

Week 3: Mars Hydro TS3000 light came in and installed at 12 inches from tops. Ran at 100% light for a few hours, however, temp was an issue. Temp was at 83. Posted in FB group, suggestions were to turn lights down and raise it up. Raised lights to 24 inches from top and built vent box to use AC for cooling. Filled a pot with FFO to test our water. Watered with 1 gallon of water. Test the runoff and it had a PH of 5.9. Seeing how long it takes to dry out in tent. Fox Farm Nutes arrived Soil Test - check moisture level at 1 inch from bottom registered at a 4. Watered plants with Fox Farm Nutes, Week 1. Gave all GSC's 3/4 Gallon and the Delite got 1/2 Gallon. Lots of runoff, removed from reservoir after 30 minutes. Forgot to add the PH Up and Cal-Mag. Runoff PH tested at 5.5.

This was a great experience, my3rd Auto plant. As soon as it showed its first pistils I topped it and mainlined the new top two nodes into a 4 way mainline. The plant recovered very well and began flowering and filled out great and filled in evenly. Buds are not super big but compact and quality. Smoke is great, nice steady high. Success! Cheers๐Ÿ˜Ž

Day 70 - It takes 5 days for the soil to dry out, with a 2.5 gallon dosage of the above listed nutrients. She has been selectively de-leafed, since the last major defoliation. The goal from now to harvest, is to maximize the light penetration, and airflow throughout the canopy, while sacrificing as few leaves as possible!
