Added 80W LED lights below the canopy. Tilted the other 200W fixture to point into the canopy. Relocated circulation fans to keep air moving through the bush! Great flower development is continuing. The stretch is almost complete, but it is still stretching. Super cropping may be right around the corner. With one bucket removed from the system, the new system volume is right around 7-8 gallons.

Forced to do a water change after a massive spike in PPM up to 2400. Cycled the system with about 5 gallons of pH water and pumped off about 4 gallons. Replaced 3 gallons containing appropriate nutrient concentration to get PPM back to 800 -900 range. Increased lights to 85%. Super cropped some of the lanky main stems that were growing right at the lights. Light directly over the plant is pretty much maxed out on height at this point. Looking to increase intensity by the end of this week to 90% and then to 100% by the end of week 5. Continuing to defoliate larger fan leaves a few per day.

Plant is looking incredibly healthy even after the water issues. Some trichomes starting to develop on sugar leaves and flowers. There are tons of flower sights, I am excited to see how they continue to develop!!!

Moved the light up to its last hanging position. There are only a few more inches of adjustment left. Trying to avoid late supercropping if I can.
9/26/2024
Pruning large fan leaves and fan leaf overgrowth. Looking to leave a lot of the smaller leaves for sugar trim collection if possible. Humidity is not an issue yet, but working to maintain 50-60% is getting close to maxing out my setup. Continuing with light defoliation will hopefully help in managing humidity.

Have been adding pH-adjusted water as well as reduced nutrient concentration to keep PPM 800-900. Prioritizing bloom nutrients and keeping small amounts of micro and grow in the mix, diamond nectar at around 4mL/gallon.

the c99s got ten days of plain water then came the chop at week 10 and 3 days with a fairly decent 30% amber all things considered !

I am now flushing her with plain Brita filtered water PH'd with lime juice to lower her PH.
I initially first flushed her with 42L of water and now I am flushing her once a day for 8 days and then I will put her in for darkness for 3 days and then I will harvest her and dry her for 9 days and then cure her for 28-48 days.

I might switch the lights in the next days. Depending on her growth.
Day44: Added some water and moved the camera a little further away.
Day45: She felt lonely, so I got her a friend... Theobroma Cacao. New seedling that needs the warmth + humidity. Hopefully surviving winter.
Day46: I decided to take some zoomed in stills of her. To show off her beauty. The purpling of the branches really make this lady something special. In some of the shots it might look like her leaves are yellowing, but it's just the angle of the light. You can see on the photo that I took from the top, that all leaves are a healthy dark green. At least I now have proof that she's a lady. She's short and stubby, but I'm not really growing for amount. I just neeed 50g, after all (hehe)
Day47: She grew like a demon overnight. I'll check the height tomorrow.

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩🌾 🧑🌾.🔥💨
Pretty good week. She's grown a full 10cm this week, new growth is coming up.
She's mainly still filling in space but still stretching.
I'm impressed how fat her stalk is getting and her stems are quite strong, no need for support yet. 💪
I noticed that she is drinking really fast and was a bit limp some days.
So I increased the amount of water a lot this week total of 600ml.
So far I'm constantly adding a little bit more every feed.
Currently feeding 1,5L each, every other day. Will be increasing as they ask for more.
How do they ask for more?
When feeding if the soil is drier than normal I give a 150-200ml increment of water.
I do that until they stop feeding so much then i just maintain that amount.
I start reducing if it takes longer to dry.
That works good for me. The old finger in the dirt trick. 👍
Nothing like knowing exactly what your ladies need first hand.
No particular smell yet. Buds are just starting to form.
Stay tuned for next week's update.
Take care and stay safe!
One love!

pH was important as expected and a bit of light burn later on in the grow but ultimately it was pretty smooth sailing. I used a very common nutrient (GHE) and not overly strong.
Buds were thick, dense, and moderately pine smelling. The plant did not grow excessively tall thanks to LST, and the LST did not seem to have any ill effects at all. Foliage was thick, and I let it go for a very long time before doing any sort of defoliation. Even then it was modest and just to get light to the lower colas.
Still in trimming mode and will continue to update :)
Also, other plants in the house got spider mites. Not this one. Could have been that it was in hydro and others weren't but hard to say.

So I had a few issue. I over watered early on, took them out the seed tray early, started feeding them a week or two late, no humidifier yet but they recovered well.

Plant 3's buds are really bulking up comparted to the rest. They are more square topped buds than the rest that are Christmas tree shaped.
I'm keeping an eye on the trichomes. They are looking nice.
Harvest is almost here!!!

Seems silly to start a week, but she is alive. For now 😱
Locked her up at sleep time today. I'll check on her Sunday.
She is figuring out whats going on. 😂
Since last night was her last light night,( say that one 5 times fast 😂) I let Guy and Luna say their farewells. August just wanted to play.
Made for some fun pictures. 😁🤘

Green sensation made its effect and now we can see some resin dropped in the flowers. They have also gained some weight and size. The plants keeps looking good and healthy at the moment.
