Semana 13: 31dez - 6janeiro Quase perto do fim!

This was a brilliant week for plant growth, with some side branches over doubling their height. I added the ScrOG net at the beginning of the week and began some more intensive training. The LST only plants I pretty much just continued to bend. The topped & LST'd plants I removed some of the lower bud sites that were not getting any light. I also removed a few awkward fan leaves that could not be tucked away. The addition of the net has helped with this though, as keeping the canopy even is much easier with the support it gives. I also decided not to try any further cuts on the (half) mainlined auto's. My reasoning is that they have developed strong, independent colas already, so cutting for more would not see much gain. The plants had also begun to flower on the night I went to perform the second cut, and my growing experience tells me not to mess with flowering plants too much so here we are. I gave the plants one regular watering of 10L pH'd water, and a 20L nutrient mix using the ratios stated above. All volumes were split equally between the plants. The scrawny looking blue critical has perked up a heck of a lot, so the weakest looking plant is the LST only on GSC. ZThe strongest plants by far are the ones that have been topped and LST'd, closely followed by the mainlined ones. LST only is definitely great, but it is clearly lagging behind the other two techniques.

Ok another week closer.... The girls are stacking and blowing up, everything is perfect.... The room smells like a chocolate store, love it. Nothing really new ...but started dropping down on PPMs ....if they are not eating the nutrients why feed them it....... Now is just ripening time...the next couple of weeks ..mmmm can't wait for some Cookies.

Watering every other day, using left over RO water from last feed with a little more phosphorous and potassium. and cal mag and fulvic and molasses added... EC 1.5 PH 6.2 Temp 20. Runoff was within 500 ppm higher than input (yikes). (still going for same input & runoff😒); its a dam goal ! These last couple of weeks seem to take forever. Praying to the ganga gods😇 that it finishes OK. March 29/2021 Brix is increasing, highest brix is 14 on 2 plants, brix of 10 on 5 plants, Brix of 9 on 3 plants, Brix of 8 on 1 plant, Brix of 7 on 1 plant.

Light on Spider farmer SF4000 was turned up to 70 percent plant is doing better. Light is still 36 inches above plants in a 2x4 tent. I turned the light to 70% from 50% 3 days later I think I see some nanners starting. Possible light stress? I am going to let it all play out really interested in seeing what happens. I am all about the learning.

Lots of nutrients burn. I think it's okay now but I stress the word 'think'. The brown spots on the edges of the leaves seemed to have abated. All coming on nicely though. Autopot working wonders. The plant seems to be getting through 1.5 litres a day.

Going to give her just water for a week or 2 now she seems like she’s done enough now

So, I chopped the two colas off and left the main stem in the pot, because I'm lazy. But guess what I found after a week: another flower! These genetics are crazy. I'm not sure if it's a good thing but I'll take it. Definitely not an outdoor strain. This was a WILD ride.

The bud sites are filling in quickly, excited to see how they develop further. Smooth sailing, easy fun grow. Got a little over 13" tall. Super short, curious to see how much yield she gets.

You see her stretch? You see her reaching for sun? Damn she is already beautiful...All four of them. Not 1 is lacking in growth or showing signs of struggle. Maybe I'm not doing it right. But this is the first time all seeds is looking this well in the 2nd week . Thanks for the visit...keep your eyes peeled grommies...some awesome things are happening

Week 8 and she is really starting to smell up the box. Getting a serious citrus pine smell. I picked up some free Sea Green (as long as I paid the shipping which was 5 bucks. Definitely worth it!!) from Primordial Solutions and used it for the first time. Hats off to the Primordial crew I would definitely recommend Sea Green to anyone because in the two feedings I’ve used it my girl has love love loved it. The leaves prayed up way more than usual. Her overall health seemed to improve and I honestly didn’t think her fine ass could get any better 😂😂, I was wrong!! She seems very happy and healthy so not much to report other than the NUGS LOOK TASTY!! Last day of the week and she developed a ton of orange pistols overnight.

3/4/2023 Week 3- Day 1 of Veg (Day 31 overall) Water Change out Day 36 Gallons in CalMag = .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil FloraMicro = 4.2Mil/Gal = 151Mil FloraGrow = 3.8Mil/Gal = 137Mil FloraBloom = 3.0Mil/Gal = 108Mil PH DOWN = 1.72Mil/Gal = 62Mil PPM = 546 PH = 5.88 This Grow has definitely been an interesting grow I have been playing with Over or Under since the beginning and it all started with me drowning the plants by adding too much water. I will have to make sure I watch that on all my future grows. I prayerful that this week will get me fully back on track, in my previous grows using my chart, I haven't had any issues during this week, so again prayerful that this is the week I am back on point. 3/5/2023 Week 3- Day 2 of Veg (Day 32 overall) ROOT ROT!!! I guess from when I drowned it I caused a lurking issue that really showed it's head today. The roots were looking not slightly bleached but looking black. I cut out what looked dead and I had to run to the local Hydro shop to pick up some items to see if I can fix it and strengthen the plants. I picked up Mammoth Silica, ORCA, and ROOT Drip. I completely drained the system and started it over today as well. 38 Gallons In Mammoth Silica = .5Mil/Gal = 19Mil CalMag= .5Mil/Gal = 19Mil Root Drip = 1Mil/Gal = 38Mil FloraMicro = 4.2Mil/Gal = 160Mil FloraGro = 3.8Mil/Gal = 144Mil FloraBloom = 3.0Mil/Gal = 114Mil Orca = .5Mil/Gal = 19Mil PH Down 60 Mil = PH 5.83 I also had to run by Staples I realized the paper I was using wasn't the right brightness and Lbs for the Photon App. What I needed to have 22Lbs 98 Bright. I recently saw a comparison of the different weight papers against a several hundred dollar Apage PPFD detector and with the right paper it was almost exact readings. With that my PPFD 355. 3/6/2023 Week 3- Day 3 of Veg (Day 33 overall) Still alive!! #2 and #3 are still alive and it looks like no further damage to any of the leaves. #2 needed 1 node topped. I will keep monitoring day to day. 3/7/2023 Week 3- Day 3 of Veg (Day 34 overall) Well Both appear to be doing all right. I cut off the offensive leaves from #3 nothing new on shown on the leaves. I actually needed to top 1 node on #2. PH is stable, Temps are stable.. I will be changing out the water and Nutes on Saturday not waiting the 2 weeks. 3/8/2023 Week 3- Day 4 of Veg (Day 35 overall) Well Both appear to be doing all right. I actually needed to top 1 node on #3 and 2 on #2. PH is stable, Temps are stable.. I will be changing out the water and Nutes on Saturday not waiting the 2 weeks. I think the additives are truly making a difference I think I will be adding them to all my grows from here on out. 3/9/2023 Week 3- Day 5 of Veg (Day 36 overall) Both still appear to be on the mend Still some dark brown on a small part of the roots and I don't know if those are just dead but it doesn't look like it is spreading and I see a bunch of new roots forming. Nothing new on the leaves at all. So I think the trio that I added is helping. The plants also seem to be in raised happy position going towards the light. I still plan to change the water on Saturday and go from there. 3/10/2023 Week 3- Day 6 of Veg (Day 37 overall) Moved the light up to 41 1/2" so 3' 4 1/2" away from the top of the Plants. PPFD= 363 Power on my Light =62.5 Water Temp is holding steady=70.3 PPM= 534 PH= 5.92 Tent Temp= 72.5 Humidity= 50-60% I have 2 humidifiers running on INK Bird controllers monitoring it 24/7. I will be changing out the water tomorrow even though I could let it go an extra week but I am still concerned that the Root Rot is clearing up and I don't want to risk it coming back. I want fresh Nutes/ water in the tanks. I topped 2 nodes on #3 I topped 3 Nodes on #2 I also cleaned out some of the bottom third portion that isn't getting much light and not much growth at all. #2: 8 1/2" tall, 18" Wide #3: 7 1/2" Tall, 15" Wide

Purtroppo le 4 gorilla 🦍 hanno delle carenze importanti e anche dei moscerini che girano nella terra e nelle radici, penso siano i moscerini dei funghi e se tengo le piante senza annaffiare più tempo loro soffrono perché gli piace l umidità e materiale organico di cui nutrirsi, ho sbagliato due settimane fa a preparare quella soluzione forse un ambiente troppo dolce gli ha richiamati…spero di non avere ancora più danni ormai le piante

Hello, readers! I'm still trying to stretch her a little bit, just to keep it's form, when she begins to grow rapidly. Even though she' s on her preflower now. This week I also removed quiet a lot of leaves (~30). The main goal here was to open all end-branches, future colas. Also I switched nutrients proportions to more flowering. It means more PK and S. And less N. Light on 100% now!

Finally, I found the time to finish the report. Thanks for joining me!

Week 1 of veg an this Tropicana Cookies auto is looking good growing by the day under this fold 6 from medic grow can't wait to see her in a couple weeks

New week, new growth. So we have done another defoliation to allow the lower shoots to be exposed to the lights which equal to a better yield come flower time, they always need a day or 2 recover after being put under any stress, especially if its an extreme amount of leaves being taken off. They were also lollipoped to clear up and messy under growth and to improve airflow under the canopy. I also took clones from each of these. Paying close attention to the EC and pH. Increasing and decreasing as and when I need to going off what the plants show me. Close to flower now. A few days to go! Stay tuned and feel free to follow my instagram and youtube channel for a closer look. Peace x

Week two I tried the scrog net but ditched it. Started using the heavy 16 line up as well. I had a spider mite issue that I squashed with neem oil. You can see they are bouncing back.
