Flower Week 2 Day 14 to 20 - 4/1 to 4/7 Simply watching the stretch from this point. Defoliation is needed by day 20 (4/07) so I removed all but the top 1 or 2 fan leaf sets as well as a few of the lowest branches. The idea here being that I want to mostly lolipop the colas and allow more airflow/light into the center. Feed this week was an auto pot reservoir feed now at 700ppm total before add-ins. I used 175ppm Veg concentrate mix (recipe week 2) and 525ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). However, I also added 1ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and ph balance this week was for 5.8 where Io plan to maintain it until harvest. Video Post defoliation Next week nutes will increase in Bloom mix again but also eliminate Veg mix. Feed will again be 700ppm before add-ins with 5.8ph before feeding.

Environment is good. My aim is to get these into their tent in the next two weeks. Good luck all! Stay safe! Track ID - Three 6 Mafia - Swervin (feat. Mike Jones & Paul Wall)

Last week of flower I will be harvesting these three females Friday night . Been a fun grow glad it’s coming to an end so I can finally dry, cure , and taste. Really excited to try each one they each have unique smells. I’m letting these girls goto day 63 , I’ve been checking the trichomes and I feel like the BBxPBB could be a 8 week strain , ima try another grow with her after my Ethos Forbidden Zkittles run, I love the way the BBxPBB did in veg and flower I feel like I can get a little more out of it i missed a few feedings for 2 weeks had a newborn and wasn’t up on the feeding like I should the buds on the BBxPBB are a little airy and they have packed some weight at the end last two weeks . I will be upgrading my light next grow and will try to run them one more time , looking around November for the next BBxPBB run . I have a few buddies growing some outdoors so I will update this entry in October when they are harvested . The Ethos Punchberry Cookies was easy grower , finished really well , buds are rock solid and have great structure , each one has different small , one has a fruity sweet tart smell the other smells like a rotten banana with a hint of fruit punch on it , the BBxPBB seems to have taken on more of the blueberry smell has a hint of gas smell or rubber, smells great

Aug 5: plant 1 is starting to fade and has decently solid buds forming. Plant 2 is several days behind with bigger buds that have not firmed up yet. A bit longer still. Aug 10: still not quite ready. Nice sunny weather continues so I’ll wait some more.

Day 43 14/06/24 Friday So I definitely stunted her 🤦‍♂️ Braking that side really did her dirty, but she is starting to recover bush tops and show female sex so it's a good start to the week. Adjusted LST again. Day 44 15/06/24 Saturday Feed today 6.4 Day 47 18/06/24 Tuesday Water today with calmag pH 6.2 She has blown again, beautiful. Tops all re bushed, pre flower commencing. Lighter tops, starting to produce a smell. Day 49 20/06/21 Thursday Feed today pH 6.25 Did it outside, Picture update 🤩 End of week ✌️💚

Starting week 6 of flower on this beautiful Forbidden Runtz Auto from FastBuds. She is really starting to look beautiful and has been a very easy grow so far! She is slowly starting to fatten up now and really starting to display some amazing fruity aromas! More updates soon... Day 78 we removed some more damaged leaves and a few that were blocking lower sites as well. Day 81 we removed a few more leaves. She is definitely yellowing faster than I would like at this stage but we are gonna ride it out!

Finally received a couple of humidifiers to test from the local shop. These shitty low cost humidifiers will not really do, I can only have them on non stop until the water runs out. If I connect them to a sensor that switches them off, it won't go back on because it doesn't have a mechanical switch, I have to press on each time. Still, let's see if this helps my poor dry leafs a little bit

Starting to bloom. Continued with defoliation for air flow. Removed 5 or so leaves with mildew. Switched to bloom nutrients and hydra cal mag 2 days ago after 3 days of just ph 6.2 waterings/flush. Still healthy but a bit of mottling on older leaves and a tiny bit of nute burn on a couple of tips.

Week 2 of vegetative growth for Pineapple Upside Down – Round 2. The plant is still struggling at this stage. Development is slower than expected for week two, and overall vigor remains below what would normally be considered healthy growth. Reading the plant has been difficult, as no single factor clearly stands out as the root cause. Several parameters are being questioned: excess humidity, temperature management, light intensity, or nutrient balance. Overfeeding seems unlikely, as the last watering was done with a very light EC, around 0.3 to 0.4. Light levels are also modest, approximately 180–200 PPFD, which should normally be safe for a young plant. The pH was checked and appears to be within an acceptable range. Because the substrate is already sufficiently moist from previous watering around the plant, no additional irrigation has been done. At this point, adding more water would likely do more harm than good. A small adjustment was made by slightly opening the dome to improve airflow and reduce excess humidity. This should help the plant breathe better and potentially stabilize its environment. Temperature may also be adjusted if needed, depending on how the plant responds over the coming days. This second week highlights ongoing difficulties in managing early growth stages. There is clearly room for improvement in the startup protocol, and this phase is being treated as a learning process for future cycles. For now, the strategy remains simple: minimize interventions, maintain stable conditions, and allow the plant time to recover its natural rhythm. The next update will focus on whether growth resumes normally or if further adjustments are required.

I’m a few days late with my entry because I was busy in the other tent finishing up with a project. The express is going along nicely. I duped the nutrients and ran a few days of florakleen to run a test and see if stripping the salts and removing the nutrient bond as advertised makes a difference. She has a big beautiful stall and all her branches are supported nicely.

All are going strong, zkittles OG auto is nearly 30cm bigger than the rest and has started showing bud sites, the rest are not far behind at all. I think they will be into flowering stage at the end of next week and by then hopefully 30-40cm taller. Do si dos is very different, looks short and stout so will be doing some LST on her. Seems to be happy with the nutrients and strengthening nicely. Added another 600w light on 11/12/20 so 3 600w lights in now.

Plants are getting big enough to train through the fence. Im thinking a vertical scrog, but its gonna be a bitch to harvest . We will see, still dunno if they are even female.
