Clock changed to 12h and scrog installed yesterday. Light adjusted to 45 LUX One plant needs more nutes than the rest but as I have a main rez I need the same formula for all so either I underfeed one or overfeed the rest.

1/14: This morning, I did a foliar application of big bloom and fulvic acid, then about 5 hours later I watered them with about a half-gallon of rainwater each and added armor si, humic acid, endoboost myco/tricho, liquid molasses, and a bunch of cal-mag. Today, I also I wired up and mounted my new samsung sun board strips (660nm/730nm) and my Solacure FlowerPower UVB fixture. I'm running the deep red/far red bud boosters a few hours per day right now, but will run them for the entire photoperiod once I start flowering them. I'll run the UVB for 4 * 15-minute sessions a day for the full flowering cycle, and if they don't protest too much I'll increase each session by 5 minutes and evaluate again. Some strains are more forgiving than others and I've got 5 different strains in this space...so really not sure much time I'll get away with exposing them to the deadly rays without damaging them too much...😈 1/15: I received one of the rapid led/growmau far red initiator pucks today. With the placement of my UVB light, I'm realizing I'll need another far red puck to have even and intense far red coverage, so I'm ordering another with Prime delivery and waiting to start flowering until I receive it. I sprayed them down really well with ph adjusted rainwater tonight to rinse off nutrient build-up from foliar applications. 1/16: I'm really excited to try flowering under 14/10. I grew photos indoors on an off for 15 years before I semi-retired. If I added up all the additional flowering time I could have done through the years if LED technology existed, I'd have had an extra truckload of bud to smoke. I did another application of Axiom Harpin a|b Proteins this evening, right before dark. I'm expecting a big growth burst this week, leading up to the flower stretch. I really need them to trigger under 14/10 within 4 or 5 days🙏 ...if not, I'll switch to 13/11 and wait a few more days🙏😟..if still no pistils are poppin, I'll go to 12/12 and chalk it up as bad luck or varietal indifference to Pr and Pfr manipulation. 1/17: I fed each of them about 3/4 gallon of full strength veg nutes. This will be the last. I'll go with half-strength veg and half-strength bloom for a week, then go with full strength bloom nutrients until I start flushing them in 6-8 weeks. 1/18: I installed the second far-red flowering initiator today and got all my timers configured for flowering: ========================================= timer#1 - power strip with qb's and red boosters   10:00am -12:00am  timer#2 - (dual/independent setting)             sideA- 3-way cube with uva bars                   10am - 3pm                    7pm - 11pm             sideB- flowerpower uvb                    1pm - 1:15pm                    4pm - 4:15pm                    7pm - 7:15pm                    11pm - 11:15pm timer#3 - far red pucks   11:00pm - 12:15am timer#4 - sub-canopy tube   10am  - 1pm    3pm  -  6pm    8pm  - 11pm ======================================== I also did some testing on the timers and sealed myself into the closet to check for any light leaks. All good.👌 1/19: Looks like the FIM job didn't take on one of them..but she's got perfect symmetry. WIll probably have to just top her again next week...gonna be a tall one I think. Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/20: I watered them today with about a half gallon each. I'm seeing calcium and magnesium deficiences here and there, so added some boomerang and heavy cal-mag-Fe along with liquid molasses, humic acid, and endoboost myco. I also foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. That's it for week 4-

Harvested 7.49 Oz of dry flower after drying for 8 days. This plant is fairly difficult to grow and not resilient in my opinion. I would advise looking at their other strains like apple strudel if you want something easy to grow. Check out my videos on Youtube/Rumble/IG - DabKing7200

Flower day 21 Today I returned from vacation after 7 days. My first look was in the water tank, and it was indeed empty. Hopefully, I looked into the tent, and luckily, the ladies all looked healthy. The 40 liters had probably only recently been emptied. The ladies have grown more than I expected. Some even grew a few centimeters up to the lamp, and so I was forced to supercrop the longest shoots. I also lolipopt the plants properly.

Here’s the update: She’s in week 8 of flower so far and a lot has happened since the last post. Since may 20th 2025, I noticed a small deficiency in the plant but couldn’t quite pin it down as to what it was, fast forward 10 days and I notice that she was getting more deficient and started to show more signs of what it was and once it was clear I ruled it out as a magnesium deficiency since I lacked any in my pot. I since grabbed some dolomite lime from Down To Earth (OMRI) and sprinkled 5 tablespoons into the top soil and watered with PH’d and dechlorinated water and worked it into the soil with the watering. It’s too soon to say it has any effects so far but I’m hoping my rookie mistake can be fixed. I do understand I am pretty late into flower for a top dress but the flowers look young still and could go for some more time but if I’m wrong please guide me the right way haha, also I did the top dress on June 4th 2025. First day of flower flip : April 11th 2025 Current date : June 5th 2025

Ending week 7 strong, no signs of nute burn and I'm pushing 2400+ ppm. Colas are developing nicely and the trichomes are beginning to develop, and smell very fruity and citrusy.

End of week 9! Everything is progressing, buds are stacking good, leaves are still yellowish but the calmag deficiency and the rust spots stopped progressing, I'm starting to think that maybe the yellowing is natural fading? Don't have a clue at this point, I just want this first run to finish in the best way possible. She is starting to smell amazing, I really can't wait to chop her but I think she has at least 3 weeks more. Patience is the key! Day 66 08/05/2022 - Holy fucking shit, I came back home after 2 days that I was out and the smell has taken the whole house LMAO, never felt anything like it, smell of lemon and candy, it makes my mouth wet😱 Day 67 09/05/2022 - Took some pics with lights off and flash and defoliated a bit to improve air flow

Hi gromies Ive missed updates over the last few weeks phone problem! But the girls are going great!👍 I'm at the end of week 5 of flower. I'm pretty happy with it for my first scrog grow, could have been better, was in rush to get something into flower, started flowering as soon as they started to grow through net. Should have veged them & trained through the net longer to completely fill net. Pheno 3 was half the size of the other 2. Have started some clones from flowering cuttings, Monster cropping , it works great for increasing yield & saves me from having to keep motherplants. Amazing progress, the roots you see were developed in 8 days! Will start to veg them in the 2nd tent & start the perpetual harvest process. Have continued to grow this strain as I don't have any other seeds at the moment, though it is a nice strain! Definitely time for a change, hint, hint original sensible seeds! Or any other seed companies 👍

Quebec Blast is doing well. She is showing first signs of flowering a week into light change. I adjusted nutrition more to her current demands, with a solution change today. Everything is going well, I don't expect a lot of stretching. I could be wrong. I am growing her under a Spider Farmer SE5000 light at 70 percent. She is in New Level Hydro 5 gallon bucket.

Eai família um ótimo final de semana a todos! Estou muito feliz com o resultado que estou tendo neste início de floração, a planta duplicou de tamanho dês de o último vídeo. Estou dando 19 horas de luz e 5 horas de escuridão total e acredito que estou tendo um ótimo início, as folhas estão bem verdes com o aspecto bem saudável. Essa semana diminui a quantidade do fertilizante Grow, mas vou manter a mesma dosagem dos outros. Saíram vários galhos laterais que estão crescendo a cada dia e enchendo de pestilos, os Buds estão começando a se formar em toda planta o cheiro já está maravilhoso, estou super ansioso pra carburar essa Banana Purple punch, obrigado Fast Buds 🙏

I finally found the spray on the leaves according to my ideas! 1. Produces mist with fine droplets 2. works in 360 ° position ... 3. After pressing, it sprays for another 3 seconds. I have not found it in any gardening or growshops ... You can find these spray bottles in a hairdressing shop. Price $ 12, volume 350m!

The tale of the Goddesses is ending. Through this grow, I have given tribute to matriarchs-my grandmother and my mother who have influenced who I am in this world. I’ve showcased their art, photographs, and their lifetimes. I shared our family history through old photos while also showcasing the art of Alphonse Mucha in the Art Neuveux style he created in the early 1900's. The femininity reflected in his art elevates women to Goddesses with their flowing hair and floral backgrounds. In the diary I indicated I wanted to be a healer in my younger years. I wasn't a medical professional by career choice, but I provide natural nontoxic solutions for cleaning and beauty products and have for my family and friends for over 25 years. Not only are the items healthy and clean, but they are also effective and save you money. And who doesn't want that? I added the song Woman by Iris Gold. Have a listen in you tube or amazon music. Shoot for the stars and may all your dreams come true. My cover for Harvest and Smoke report is Alphonse Mucha’s poster for Job cigarette papers. This is one of the most famous works in design history. Taking its cue from a new kind of female beauty, its modern girl has hair with a life of its own. The tendrils look more like the floating tentacles of a jellyfish. This is in vast contrast to the style of the times when women wore their hair tightly pulled up on their heads. For most people, though, the Job poster is less likely to be associated with belle époque Paris of early 1900’s, than the swinging 1960s. Its blissed-out smoker and trippy swirls made it an obvious choice for the bedroom walls of a later generation of freedom-seekers. In posters for perfume, beer, biscuits, bicycles, and Job Cigarettes (1896) he blurred the barrier between fine art and commercial art, between commerce and philosophy. The weekly diary covers I presented show Mucha’s style - organic and ornate, graceful and dynamic, with curving, swooping lines and Byzantine borders, lettering, and frames. The iconic 'Mucha woman' had curves, flowing hair, pastel robes, and often a halo of light or flowers. His women burst with life. I have mixed emotions about my grow and harvest. My results indicate I have a lot to learn. This was my 3rd grow and I still have problems with over feeding my auto girls. wh For all future grows I will reduce any synthetic fertilizer to 1/4 to 1/2 the recommended dosage. Overfeeding caused clawing and canoeing followed by nutrient lockout. While I was trying to correct this problem, flushing for 3 weeks to get out the excess fertilizers and salts, the girls were already overmature and past harvest. Checking trichomes at 10 weeks, there were few trichomes and didn't see much more until week 12. I checked with my phone camera at 10x magnification every other day. I saw lots of clear, then clear and milky, then all milky but never did I see any amber trichomes. The plants began to reveg based on the King Crown buds developing (see pics in week 15). The CBG may have degraded to CBN since I was 3-4 weeks late in harvest. If that is true, I don't mind since I need sleep medicine too. I lost Circe at the end due to aphid infestation. Ater several power washing with the hose on jet, we could not get the bugs off. So, I chopped her and into the trash she went. I did only minor defoliation near the end of the grow but neither plant was very leafy. For future grows, I will defoliate on a schedule, do some stress training maybe fimming, lollypopping, and defoiliating. Note to self: when buying seeds, look for more growing information on the strain such as when trichomes are expected and days to harvest. Knowledge is power. On the flip side, my happiness comes from the completion of a grow the harvest was 57 grams of smoke and 26 grams trim was not the highest yield but workable for what I need. As I indicated in the beginning, my plan, in addition to enjoying the smoke, is to put CBG in my health & beauty products. So, you don't have to wait for me to make mine, I've loaded a pain salve recipe above from Emily Kyle for a CBD or THC. The recipe shown makes 3/4 cup but can be doubled or halved. I'm, so excited I have decarbed my CBG trim and will use to make this formula while the buds are curing. I will also include some Lemon auto which is 17:17 CBD:THC to give it some other cannabinoids. I'll also put the recipe in the recipe diary. CBG will go in the coconut oil I use in my toothpaste ( recipe loaded in recipe file) If you follow me, check my recipe diary periodically as I will add new food and beauty recipes in future grows. For my readers and followers, I express my sincere gratitude for all the comments, likes and views and thank you for responding to my questions. I always hate having to pick one answer because they are all good. Just know that I learn from every one's answers. In closing, this Grow Diaries community is the best. With all the love and positive vibes I received, I got overwhelmed at times. As this was my medical grow, many of you sent me good vibes and prayers for continued healing. I feel your energy and it keeps my frequency up. I have enjoyed meeting and chatting with all of you. I'll be starting my next grow soon so follow along with that one too. Sending you love and good vibes 💚💫💫💚. Enjoy your smoke💨💨 Happy growing 🌱and have fun🎉

Sorry about not putting information about the grow I hate it. I wish I could just put up videos and pictures but I do try to provide a little information and it's really not much because I'm not doing much I'm amending the soil I'm adding micro nutrients and worm castings and sugars I stopped the Cal Mag pina colada stray is set to go for 9 to 10 weeks gummy bears are set to go for 8 to 9 weeks so we'll look at that three more weeks
