🌿 LA Punch by The Cali Connection 🌿 Week 14 Flower week 8 Flower-day 1 3/12/25 ( pisitils showed 25th of October) im timing from pisitils showed but diary runs from 12/12 light flip No nutrients change today, I'm thinking about 2 weeks or so of feeding, maybe 2 more horti rawk doses before switching out to new millennium winter frost then onto flush with plain water/ph Not sure, not sure. Maybe even give LA and Grape an extra week to get Bellini over the end instead of pulling a little early or pulling her as shes finishing up. Next horti rawk dose probably saturday (48hr run ) then dump then new nutrients. 6/12/25 This is currently week7 day 1 flower from 6/12/25 ( pisitils first shown ) 8/12/25 Will dump nutrients tomorrow and refill with winter frost, run for 7 days then flush for 7ish days 9/12/25 Dumped nutrients, winterfrost 500ml ( 10ml a gallon) will use for 7 days then flush for 10 or so

Day 14 Veg: A great start to the week once they settled into their new pots. hopefully i havent stunted their progress. The mutant Banana Mash is now trying to normalise a little more with new growth. Still fairly twisted but on the mend. The other 3 are more typical of new plants with their growth . I have topped one and fimmed another with one being left natural at this point. They are on their 5th node mainly ( except mutant!) and I am hoping to open their frames right up to get light to all new growth equally. I don't think they will grow too tall by design and I don't want to limit their growth in any way so i will gently manage them as they grow. The Purple Monkey are doing brilliantly so far with plenty of vigorous growth among them. I am holding the 5th nodes down on two of them and have fimmed one. These are in bigger 60L pots so should use the space to its best I think. I also have 2 plants that came from the recent harvest. One of the ladies must have had a pollen sack hid away that managed to seed a few of the exotic girls amd visited some possible viable hybrids. 2 of these are now in the grow alongside. I will be watching them like a hawk and any sign of a testicle will result in a slaughtering of the LGBGTQ sympathiser instantly . lol We do male or female only unlike the human race !!. heehee ( bit of a political hot potato!). I gave them an actual megacrop feed today to boost the available elements for the speedy growth coming. The L.o.s is still active and providing enough nutrition but I am trying to avoid the drop once the stretch period gets busy and saps the available food from it. This seems to have been happening most crops since beginning using it to avoid the leaves losing their solent green colour too fast like starvation can cause. I also added a touch of calmag to counter the L.e.d leeching that often occurs in flowering. So there we have it Growmies. A good week with the beginning of l.s.t and some promising growth. Another issue that I have managed to resolve is the R.h. We are getting warm dry air now so the room is getting silly hot and very dry at around 40% . This is great for the flowering times but has been an issue for veg in the past. not wanting to invest in a humidifier that is costly and expensive to run , I had resulted to using towels in buckets to attempt to raise it this does work in a totally sealed tent , in my leaky d.i.y "tailored " one , this has been hard to maintain. The solution came in the form of a vicks vaporiser that I bought from fleabay. It works perfectly to bring up the rh to around 70% on its lowest setting. The tank is enough to hold a days supply of water and shuts off with the lights. simple but effective fix to a common problem we face indoors. Be safe and well. Until next time. G7 Summit will be interesting in the uk!!

4/26: I top-dressed their pots with about a tablespoon of Happy Frog Cavern Culture and watered it in really slowly with about 1/4 gallon of water each and added cal-mag, humic acid, liquid molasses, silica. I also started them on open sesame. I increased Ph to 6.40 to ensure that they can utilize the increased calcium and the P and K I'm giving them now. 4/27: I bent over their apical colas and tied them down today, and did a little bit of training on the bigger one to "spread her legs" nice and proper.πŸ‘ 4/29: Both plants are stretching a little bit, but not nearly as much as I had hoped they would.....James Brown said it best: "Got to get on up!" 5/1: I gave them a little water with cal-mag, boomerang, humic acid, and silica. 5/2: I sprayed them with boomboom spray this morning...grow bitches, grow! 5/3: I did a slow-soak feeding today. Backed off the nitrogen a little more, increased silica, and started adding sweet & sticky and signal.

9/20 Man I've been busy. I'm sick too. Looking back at my diaries I get sick this time of year every year it seems. Once I get the important stuff done I'll put some pictures of finished product up. Sunny today and windy as hell. All the plants left seem to be doing good and look like they'll finish. The pink kush might not finish how I WANT but it's stinky and has lots of milky trichs. I'm playing with fire with this mk ultra. It's fucking done. It could get a LITTLE more amber and maybe come together a bit more but I don't know if it's smart to risk it. Frost warning in effect tonight. I'll probably check the forecast and harvest tomorrow. We're having some good weather just cold nights. Then it turns to like a 30% chance of rain for 4 or 5 days. I'll yank it before that. This actually turned out tp be a pretty good year. Haven't tested everything (especially shit in the ground) but what I have sampled I'm incredible happy with. 9/21 IT was a balmy 36Β° on my way to the garden. My windshield had frost on it. Surprisingly the TIGHT nugs of the pink kush and this phenome of 10th planet didn't seem to mind it. Both strains are still increasing in size, smell and trich development. Not just changing but adding more. Trichs on trichs. Very in hospital environment. It will be interesting to see what happens with these girls. We will be getting some rain. I mean we've had SOME but I mean real rain. If thays the case I'll put these in the garage for a little bit. Honestly I thought these would be goners. I've gotta get to work trimming bucking and manicuring flower. Doing a garden like this sure is an awful lot of work. But the reward is worth every penny. WATERED EVERYTHING LEFT A HALG GALLON APIECE. PROBABLY SHOULDVE GAVE A GALLON BUT THEY WERE STILL A LITTLE HEAVY. 9/22 It rained last night and we got another frost. HAD to cut a main branch of the tenth planet as it had stem rot. Lots more cold weather coming. If I could get it done and I wasnt sick and have all this other material to process I would probably pull then. It's getting really cold. We're going to be getting rain. I'll check the weather and hopfully I can just put the movable ones in the garage. Either way things will work out. Pictures that will be coming will be of the finished product! 9/22 Had a super busy day. Had to but a branch off the pink kush due to stem rot. If I had time I would've taken it. It rained today but I think the plants will be alright. I've been working non stop. I may not have the quantity I'm used too but the quality is AMAZING. I can't wait to do the smoke points and put up finished flower. The other 10th planet seems to be doing really well. I expected nothing off that. I'll keep it updated but it's hard with everything going on.

Week 8, nov 3. the middle plant was turning light green in the past couple of weeks so I flushed it with 60 liters of ph 5.9 water to see if it was locking out. Most of the plants have had calmag deficiencies even though I have been adding calmag every watering. perhaps I need some dolomite lime mixed in with the next promix to get a better ph and allow for nutrient uptake better (?)

Both plants are responding well to training so far, & canopies are manageable & flat. Expression #1 is loving the training, & is naturally spreading horizontally, while Expression #2 is shooting new nodes & branching aggressively. Tent Entry-27 minutes Week Total-32 minutes Flower Total-32 minutes Name of the game from now until the end of stretch is keeping the canopy even & flat. Removed Bud Clips from all mains. Expression #1 needed four side branches bent by Bud Clips to keep canopy even. Expression #2 has an extremely even canopy & is branching off more, so leaf tucking was adequate. Hand watered each plant with 1/2 gallon 6.0ph 15ppm reservoir water, mixed with 1/2 tsp each of coconut water powder & Build a Bloom, with 1/4 tsp quillaja powder. Raised target VPD to 1.30 with a 0.3 buffer on both day & night schedules. -Expression #1- TUESDAY Height-16β€³ Width-18β€³x20β€³ Base to Canopy-10β€³ Canopy to Light-16β€³ DLI Middle Canopy-32.5 PPFD Middle Canopy-750 CURRENT Height-16. 5 Width-24β€³x25β€³ Base to Canopy-10β€³ Canopy to Light-15β€³ DLI Middle Canopy-34 PPFD Middle Canopy-785 -Expression #2- TUESDAY Height-13β€³ Width-15β€³x17β€³ Base to Canopy-7β€³ Canopy to Light-19β€³ DLI Middle Canopy-29.5 PPFD Middle Canopy-685 CURRENT Height-14β€³ Width-18β€³x19β€³ Base to Canopy-7β€³ Canopy to Light-18.5β€³ DLI Middle Canopy-30 PPFD Middle Canopy-695

The flush week! Seemed ok - def had nitrogen toxicity in one purple berry kush - maybe too much ripener before. But we’re here - will give them the 24 now and chop. We’re out of time on this run. 90^% of the crop are where I want them to be however I thought I would have more droopy leaves. Will do the harvests on Monday anyways. Have a great week. Tried to edit best j could to do them justice. We were taking pics for the v1 so I brought them all out for a dance. Aroma strong πŸ˜‚. Take care everyone. Just keep going and keep on bloomin

5/4/21. Day 64. WR is beefing up. Drinking about 12 ounces a day, water only. I'm still seeing some clear trichomes. Not much amber. I'm thinking she'll be done in less than a week. Still hoping she lightens up a bit. I want her to burn up whatever nutes are left before the cut. We shall see, patience is a virtue! GC is a beast! Still uptaking a half gallon of water daily. I cut back just a bit yesterday and she let me know by pouting (droopy) this morning. I top fed her about 1.5 quarts and bottom fed a half quart or so. Then gave her a few ounces of Reharge water. I use a hand pump sprayer and water a bit at a time to prevent roll off. Thiink of light rain on dry soil. She looks happy and lush now. She'll get full bloom nutes tomorrow plus some top dressing, her roots are growing up and out of the surface of the soil 😳. Details on the the top dress will be noted in my next update. These two girls were planted on the same day. 5/6 Day 66. GC came out to play today😳 Stll shots just dont do her justice. She's still drinking heavily. Half gallon of 5 part bloom + Cal-mag yesterday morning, this morning dry. I'm gonna botom feed her at night, just a pint or so. I feel bad when she pouts 😟 She's 22 inches at the peak and 22 inches round. Next time I woud choose 5 gallon bags, 2 per this size tent. I LSTed a bit with pipe cleaners to even up spacing. The I gave her another pruning. So much leaf! @Hawkbo on his GC grow for for showing me the way! She also got a top dressing of 1/2 quart of Happy Frog with worn casings, dolomite lime and bone meal. She just eating all these nutes up! The tops are building girth now. Very firm! No oder yet. WR is ready! I'm drooling, no really. She'll get a nice video too πŸ˜‰ Might do a selective harvest. They dont always finish evenly. To be continued. 5/9 Day 69. WR went dark. I'll chop her on day 70, 10 weeks. Trichs are mainly milky. Big and bold! Looking into a scope that connects to the tablet so I can get some shots of these these divine pearls πŸ‘ŠπŸ˜Œ Sorry to report I cant upload the the video I made, corrupted file or some nonsence πŸ˜’ GC is chugging along building buds! She's a jungle of bud and leaf. I continue to work the canopy relieving her umbrella leaf and of the scub from underneath. Who wants all that fluff anyway? Still drinking almost a half gallon a day. I'm gonna keep the bloom nutes on the hot side unless she says stop.

The week is starting werry nicely. They keep growing, I think I didn't over or under water them. 9th day I'm starting to get the little conclusion, all the plants which are watered with Green Planet nutrients are looking a little bit bigger than their RQS rivals (when they were in the same day) Well anyways I think it's way to fast to make any conclusions. 2 days ago BlackBerry was bigger than Gg now I think it's the opposite so I won't make any conclusions before I'll smoke from both sides ;) Well its Thursday today, this Saturday I'll go to a local growshop to buy some more coco and 2 more pots so they have to wait 2 days more :) /edit. I decided to count only the days of first 3 ladies, other plants are like 4 or 5 or 6 days behind the first ones.

Hey yall, Temps were high, but under control now. My girls were droopy despite having moist soil. After a good compost tea they bounced right back. Pistol hairs are showing, haven't grown this specific cultivar before so the bud structure is a but different than others I am familiar with. Let's see what she does moving forward. I am not a super fan of these genetics. Already have new seeds I am ready to start once these ladies are done. Over all the Strawberry Diesel from Beaver Seeds is not a noob grow, you need to have your grow dialed in. And really be careful with PM. I am keeping humidity as low as I cam while still maintaining a decent VPD. Challenges with this strain definitely turns me off. Looking forward to a new cultivar, already have some genetics from Michigan, those cats are really something else, they are hellbent on being better than the West coast. And they are in my humble opinion 😌 ☺️ Pure Michigan looks good, also Honey Sticks Genetics out of Maine is killing it, their Bananaconda 4 tested over 40% total cannabinoids. They want like 3k per cut, so that won't be my next, but looking forward to new genetics nonetheless. Anyways made some new ferments, remember to use equal parts organic sugar, Jaggery is best, that is the closest form of sugar to the sugar cane plant. Cover with paper towel, 2 to 3 days later let gravity give you all that juice, don't squeeze it to get more. Keep that juice in the fridge, that is your food. Then add water to the solids and keep at room temperature for 3 months to make a vinegar. That is your cleanser. Ask questions please πŸ™ Love to see others trying KNF, or simply put Natural Farming methods.

Getting warmer outside, going well. I guess they will be ready in 4 weeks or so
