This week I did some topping as well as some Lst. The plant responded well to each training

Beginning flush, its actually week 12 I think. Missed 2 week's to the flu. The girl's went through some rough patches but not looking to bad considering my issues with LED lost two weeks of prime flowering, had to substitute CFL's for 2 weeks

Did a little more lst… let me know if im doing something wrong or could be doing better, i appreciate every single tip and opinion.

Week 2 transplanted from solo cups to 5 gal pots an 1 into 7 gal grow bag. Plants had good healthy roots in solo cups..plants keep growing vigorously from the start!!!

ok so everything has gone fantastic , no nutrient burns at all , and have been slowly creeping up the base nutrients , i have stopped the cal mag and now adding house and gardens bud XL at full strength these girls are now in full swing of flower the Cal mag has made absolutely no difference too the yellow colour of this blackberry so I suspect it is just how this strain is as meany diary's on here of the same strain are also on the yellow side , but it's certainly not affecting the speed of the growth of her , i also bought a new ph stick this week , i have found when PHing the feed bucket that its best too have air stones in the bucket , add all nuts and then ph but do not use the feed that day as if you check the next day the ph is off again so i left it 24 hours after i add more ph down , and it seems too make the measurements alot easier and stable , i have bent down the main stems " without damaging them onto my netting too A keep the canopy all the same high so my lighting is covering all plants at the same distance and also it allowed the side stems too reach up too , i also was sponsored another new led light by kingbo this week so have added another 600watt led too the grow , so now have two 600's and one 900watt , and temps are still fine sitting at 24c lights on and 19-20 off , so am pleased with that , I accidentally bend the main stem last week while I was putting them under the netting too try and control the stretch , luckily it did not crack or snap the branch at all and she didn't droop on that branch at all and has healed already , it may or may not be related but as soon as it happened the side branches thickened up too the thickness of the main stem , this plant has over taken the rest in size even being a full week too 15 days younger , it's certainly not ideal but it really does not appear too have slowed down the growth and may well go in my favour , this lady really did stretch out from week 4 into 5 and is showing no sign of slowing down , her side branches are very thick almost as thick as the main stem , her leaf production was minimal and I have only had too remove very few too expose the bud sites , the yellowing seems too be recovering now and most of the plant is green now , Update , Now gone a lush green colour instead of that horrible yellow , and the buds have already started too purple , she has also stepped up a gear with her nutrient intake almost drinking 6 pints since Thursday , She seems too have slowed down on the stretch and has so meany bud site scattered all over her with as the diary name suggests black roses everywhere , and note too any seed banks reading this if there is not a purple stain out there already called black rose now is your chance lol and Iwant a sample pack first kinda like the tester :) Now defoliation , as you can see they really didn't seem too mind at all being stripped and within a couple of days they had all replenished the lost leaves and even this week olive had to pull the odd few off as they have grown out , Method , well all info now is simple , Anything I cannot tuck under something that is blocking a bid site with shade I remove too middle or bottom , Everything else stays , I just stand above the plant and pull off anything covering the sites , it's really as simple as that , I see some strip them until there is nothing left on but a few sugar leaves , but for me didn't like the look of the plants , for me the growing process is just as much fun as the fruits ,

Starting off week 6 of flower with a bang, girls are healthy and happy. Little foiler feed this week and a full res change with fresh nuts though push them through before the last week which will be flush week.

Week 6 down and the OG Kush has been moved into the big girl tent to start her flower cycle. All 8 tops are fairly even and even throwing pitils. Leaves are getting a stronger, skunk aroma which has me very excited to smell the terps on the flower. Maintenance was minimal, just watering when light. Side note, I missed a day on pics...my bad 😊

She is very frosty and smells like candies. Nice color and the trichomes are passing from clear to milky.

Straightforward with nothing to report out of the ordinary. I top watered on day 56 then let them dry back prior to harvest (day 61). Nice mix of milky and amber trichomes. Harvested early morning prior to lights on.

Nutes at 1/2 strength..picked some supplements to aid in taste/flowering so excited to see how she finishes! 😋😋

Had some very good growth this week. Days 14-21. The girls have been dialed in at about 63-65% RH and 76-79 degrees F. On day 18 I dialed up my BP2500 to about 165 watts at the wall, and kept my small tent heater in place for the time being, nights have gotten cooler. The girls seem to be ❤️ the extra light, without causing any harm. Switched from distilled water to tap water that has been dechlorinated for 24 hours mid way through the week, no issues shown. Added 1 ml of Micro, and 1 ml of Cal/Mag to 1/2 gallon of water, PH’d to 6.2 and watered approx. 1/2cup of water per x2 throughout the week, and about 1 cup once transplanted. On day 21 they were all looking so healthy, with some roots coming from the bottom of my starter pots, I decided to transplant into 2 gallon nursery pots. My final pot will be a mix of 5 and 7 gallon fabric pots, try and see if any differences can be had.

She is growing strong and healthy... I am fighting with fungus ion the leaves... the first flowering.

Just giving these lil ladies pure h20 sunshine and a lil love for now..they’re going into 3 gal once they fill up current pot n then 5 maybe 7 but 5 is final for sure.

At this point they have grown out of their 3 gallon pots and we transplanted them into a 15 gallon but only filled with roughly 13 gallons of soil. We have 2 different phenotypes, 1 is very uniform and even the other is lanky yet resilient. They both recover well from training and have a strong sativa "haze" like smell. I have been feeding them evenly and giving them great exposure to the light with our LST. About 2 days after the transplat we did some lollipopping and more lst to get that light to penetrate and help these girls grow nice and big. For week 7 we will begin flowering, stay tuned!

This week has been easy just like any other, how ever i did get one broken branch i did try to fix it but i don't think it will make it

She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

D91 Still a couple of weeks to go at least. She is putting on nice long bud mass as all bud I'll get off her will have very few sugar leafs. And with the top 30cm of the nodes bent outwards it's allowed the light to reach down deeper into the plant itself, and well, you can see the results, bud sites galore. Not much left to do with her. I threw her into a heavy flush for 24hrs first flush run-off was coming back at 2900, way too high, salt and nute residue is been left behind because of the poor P-K uptake that control the spread and uptake of nutes. Got her down to 980 today with her final flush before going into her rest. After the flush I poured 100ml of 2ml/l of cal to help break down the nutes behind so the plant can uptake them, this is very important when doing a flush to lower your TDS add some cal to it as this will keep the plant sucking not only thr water and leaving the nutes behind, cause you need cal espically in subs with nute build up it has to be broken down and will help to avoid nute lock or going into an unwanted flush to early. I'll be dropping her next feed by 200ppm down to around a 1000. I will still give the nutes I've been given just a little less and she needs to get ready for a flush but be kept with enough to keep her mass of growth going. RH is between 55-60%:air been blown in is reading at 48-50% temp is 22c in tent it's 21.7c in the dark and 27-28c with the light on. With my new 4inch intake smart fan im going to set it up so it blows 100% air in at the top and a 4inch intake fan will suck out 80% I'm hoping by doing this it will change the RH of the room 48-50% into the tent creating the same environment. The air that is brought in is filtered by a carbon filter, no need for 1 to blow the air out. 19/3/22 As you can see I have the RH as best as I can get in my grow room, I've installed the smart fan and inserted the sensor giving me 57%RH 75F in the tent, with the light off, it's rather hot today, much hotter than normal, it's normally 21c in my room it's 24.5 today. RH is at 50% in room, hopefully by installing my old intake fan in the lowest part of my tent and suck out 80% While 100% gets blown in on top will bring the tents RH to the same as the room, that's the hope anyways. But 57%RH is still okay, not optimal but not too bad neither 21/3/22 So, I tried out my new method. Of having my smart intake fan suck in 50RH and a bottom intake fan at the end sucking out older air at a lesser speed had it running for 8hrs, no change in humidity whatsoever just dropped the temp by 1.5c. I think the fact I have a 70x70 with so many plants has set the RH and thankfully it's not what it was which was touching on 80rh at some days. A bigger tent and I'll really be able to dial in my grows now I have all the tools to control RH/TEMP from S/H. For now 57%RH when it's low and 62% when the lights are on for a few hours. Stays around 57-60% atm for around 85% of the time. Temp is constant and doesn't change without my control within a range of 4-6c change difference, this number I have no problem in changing and I'll be making my tent a lot cooler after this wk ends. I'll be keeping her at 18c with lights off and 28 with lights on. As for the plant, she has fully turned the corner and I can say whatever the issue was, which no 1 can still tell me what it was not do I know. It wasn't a def because it was so random and hit all different levels of growth. But, thankfully she has passed it, am really dialing in this coco grow. I know exactly how much water she takes without spilling a drop of run-off unless I want it to. The buds, well, they are small at the moment but they are so fucking dense and hard I really hope they get at least 30% bigger of the next 2 wks. The last few days some has but on at least 10% bud mass and all sites have moved out of pre-flower (stigma), so growth is over for the plant, it's just bud sites now, how you can tell is your sites will start to give off their aroma and will start to get sticky to the touch. 85% of the plants buds are all in the same range mature wise or only a few days out from their sister buds. Still some 15% that still has stigma but as this is at the bottom of the plant I know she will not grow anymore but maybe a little if any around these sites. 21/3/22 GRRRRRR stupid rust spots all over her again today, yday she got a mix of all the nutes above, one of these nutes is causing this, I am 75% sure it's overdrive. Really annoying, as there is no deficiencies, no signs, just these poxy rust spots. So annoying, as NO 1 can tell me exactly what they are, it's not a def, the plant ozzs health, she's the pic of it, every leaf stands tall, very good color, slight old nute burn very little on about 10% of the leafs but these stupid rust spots are stupid. Overdrive, or 1 of the nutes is doing this, I reckon it's this as it's only been given that the past 10 days and I'm nearly sure this is the cause, but I can't be sure, and until I figure it out I really don't feel comfortable moving forward with the AN line. Sadly I think I'll be dropping everything but big bud, bud candy&voodoo juice. 22/3/22 Was going through my buds and man, they are so sticky you would nearly say they are done until you look close at them, there still full of pistils, white hairs, the bud growth will come past them, so there is still a big push yet to come so I was hoping to start dropping the micro nutes but I think that would be a massive mistake and cost me dearly on harvest day. Fuck it, I'll flush the shit out of it for 2 weeks on flawless finish and then a week on water and 2-4 days in the dark just on water. With much thought I pushed the PPM back up to 1450. I've decided to drop overdrive. After 24hrs of flushing my coco like crazy I'll be happy to start her back on nutes in 24hrs when she's drank the 2.8-3.2l of water she's currently holding, the run-off from that was 1800 btw, but with salts and so on from the last feed I've learnt with AN the PPM reading is what you give it, not always the Run-off. Yeah I'd trust the PPM reading 2moro if i was doing another ppm run off test, but as im not ill go by what im putting into it, cause my weekly flushes/flushing in general in pretty good, very little nute lock experinces with mixing so many nutes 22/3/22 Messaged AN and sent them pics and info, by going through my nutes and the fact that I gave some big bud in the same window as overdrive causes these rust spots. Thankfully I finally have an answer as to the rust issues. Just a bad mix with nutes that shouldn't come into contact with each other. Thanks AN Thanks for reading, drop a like and I'll know u drop by and I'll do the same gottagrowsometime

// Day 65 Was inside today to avoid a thunderstorm. She is starting to bulk :) Nothing to share, simple cruising. She is healthy and beautiful, that's it.
