18/09/2022 - 42 days since my little girl sprouted from seeds🌱 The second week of flowering of my Mandarine XL 🍊🍊🍊 Nutrients: Jungle Indabox - the girl responded well to the nutrient change, so I continue to feed the same as last week, when I set the nutrients for flowering Jungle Environ X - bud stimulators 🌼 I am giving Advanced Nutrients - bud stimulators, Bud Ignitor for the last time this week Atami - ATA Calmag - it is recommended to use Calmag when growing under LED lights Training: LST: just a slight LST, I attached some small twigs with string so that more light shines on them 💡💡 Defoliation: I did a bigger defoliation in the middle of the week so that the girl could breathe well and the big leaves wouldn't shade the twigs 🍃🍃 Light: Mars Hydro TS1000, the girls are doing amazing under this great light, I can see a big difference compared to my past results 💡💡💓 The girl is slowly turning into a big lady, her stems are strong, regularly grown, so that massive buds can form on them 🌸👩🌲 You can see white tufts of pistils on the stems, in this week of flowering they are just right and look like a blanket of snow ❄️❄️ She is already a strong lady revealing her beauty. 🌲💓 The box emits a soft scent that reminds of fruit and earth, but it's a gentle whiff 🍇🌍 Thanks for the likes and you can follow me on Twitter 🐦: @ Targona666 See you soon 😍

End of week. They hungry. Gonna get some compost tea slop with solids as mulch, light full blast 24 inches, these girls don't look happy. Not gonna give up on them, I've not been around alot. Funeral. RIP Paw. If they don't straighten up I may feed them from a bottle. Organic tea maybe help some. I feel as tired and bad as these girls. Lol. Still got hope in the outcome.....🤷‍♂️ I'll show the good and bad of my grows. Should've greened them up for you all to look at. Lol. You will always see what I see, no filters etc. They actually swelling and stacking up nice besides their color they don't look to awfully bad. Just not sure what to do or if I'll have the time , probably 3 weeks give or take a week or 2. Happy growing all. ✌️🙏🙏. WEEK 8 NOW I KNOW WHY THEY YELLOWED. HAPPY FROG SOIL TOP DRESS AND TEA. Doing great untill I topdressed. Never thought about the happy frog soil. Put a new seed into a new solo with NEW happy frog. Noticed water droplets was going in directions water doesn't flow. Up down sideways. Watch the vid. Pics. The autos may make it to finish, flowers are ok so far and almost done. But I have 2 cherry pie s1 testers and a Bubblegum OG that I got to keep healthy. Rosemary untill I can get some sulfur. Wish me luck and DONT TRUST HAPPY FROG. VID AND PICS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. UGGGGG ANOTHER FEW DAYS.... After the compost tea they seem to be frosting nice and coloring /fading pretty. We will see the final outcome within a week maybe two.

Beginning of week... The purple is beginning to bleed onto the leaves!!! Finally! I have a purple phenotype!! I am definately calling this "Week 1 of flower".. She has stretched noticeably.. Still not very much, but it is noticeable! By the end of this week it should be very obvious! I love these ladies! This is why I've stayed single since I've started growing more than 2 years ago! Bahahaha! Not even joking.. 100% of my love goes to these lovely ladies!!.. So this morning I flushed with FloraKleen.. The runoff PPM came out exactly as it went in.. Crazy!!! I mixed the nutrients for tomorrow and I went up a tad on ArmorSi (Silica).. CALiMAGic (CalMag).. And the FloraMicro.. Went down on the FloraGro so that I could also add the FloraBloom to the mix since the flower stretch will be happening this week.. I went ahead and also went up a bit on the Floralicious Plus and the FloraNectar FruitNFusion.. Gonna keep the FloraNectar at veg amount till she is actually making some nugs.. Maybe 2nd or 3rd week into flower. That's how I did it with my suitcase grow (*TC*).. Seems like the way things are going at this point.. I may not even be able to add a bloom booster. Still early tho.. Only time will tell! Next day.. Night temps in the tent got down to 57F.. Holy shit it had me nervous lol.. The leaves looked like shit.. But they always look like shit when lights are out.. But she perked up this morning.. Lights only been on for about 30 mins and they are back to NORML <--- lol see what I did there? But yeah.. Hope my clones managed to make it thru too Next morning.. Yeah she's fine.. I just hate how the leaves droop so much after about 16 hours of light.. Almost like that extra 2 hours is alot of them.. I wonder what they would be doing if I was using 20/4 or even 24/0 light cycle.. I was thinking of bumping it up to 20/4 in week 2 or 3 of flower and leaving it there till harvest.. But haven't made the decision yet. Oh yeah.. This week I also bumped up the power to 100%. And if needed, I will lower the light a bit.. I've burned a few plants in the past, so I know to be careful with that. Wish I had a PAR meter.. They say you can use a LUX meter but I see so much conflicting information on doing that.. I believe its multiply the LUX reading by .025 and that should give you the estimated PAR... But idk how much I trust that.. And when UV and IR are involved, it can be higher than what you think.. Some shit.. Blah blah blah.. Lol Almost mid week... I'm starting to think she needs more nutes.. She seems a little yellowish.. Like she could be a bit more green. I've had strains that were like that before.. But this plant is a little confusing, being my first purple pheno.. She has the little streaks of purple on the stems all over the plant.. But being a purple pheno, that could just be genetics.... But the leaves not looking as lively as they were before.. Seems to me that it shows that maybe there isn't enough nitrogen since she has transitioned into flower.. But there are also yellow tips on all the newer growth.. Doesn't really look too bad tho.. Not like nutrient burn.. But it could be. I know sone deficiencies show yellow tips also.. Ugh. The buds still seem to be forming nicely tho.. Thats what counts.. And damn the purple is bleeding onto ALOT of the newer leaves! Its so fucking pretty! The new growth seems a bit under developed to me tho.. And almost like its wilted.. Not too bad but it is a bit noticeable.. I really hope I dont screw this up lol. Well since I did go up on the nutes a bit this week.. I guess I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and see what happens this week I suppose. Hopefully this clears up after going up on the nutes a bit. I really dont wanna screw this up. Later that day (Almost mid week) So i flushed the medium with FloraKleen the other day.. The runoff came out at 3XX PPM.. Yesterday I fed with nutrients.. Going in was 7XX PPM but the runoff came out at 3XX PPM once again.. I figured ok, the nutrients are still just higher in the medium I guess and I should see it in the runoff this morning as I flush (since I feed, flush, feed, flush, etc.).. But today going in it was 230 PPM but the runoff came out at 420 PPM.. So I think the FloraKleen was still doing what it does.. And maybe thats why the plant isnt as good as she should be. So tomorrow morning I will be feeding at 740 PPM and hopefully the runoff will be where it needs to be.. FloraKleen is great.. But I'm only gonna use it for harvesting.. Cuz this is ridiculousness! Works like magic tho lol.. So there's that.. Will be updating tomorrow with pics! Mid week.. Fucking FloraKleen is still working or some shit! Fed this morning.. Going in was 740 PPM.. Runoff is still showing 420 PPM.. I even made a 4th liter of nutrient mix and going in, it was 850 PPM but runoff is still coming out at 420 PPM.. Son of a bitch. I can see she is starving right now too.. This is one of the worst times to starve these girls.. Not the worst, but one of the worst, in my experience.. What a finicky bitch she is!.. Other than the runoff sucking balls.. And the slight discoloration of the leaves.. She is happy tho.. She should pull thru just fine.. Just gotta get this damn FloraKleen out of there! I'm just gonna feed everyday (instead of feed, flush, feed, flush) till I see the PPM where it needs to be.. But damn FloraKleen works like a mf'r.. Just not the best idea to use while the girl still needs nutrients.. Will be updating as I go.. Hopefully this is fixed soon. Almost end of week.. Idk wtf.. I havent even watered using just plain water yet.. The entire week.. Just been feeding once daily and still the runoff is coming out at 400 - 500 PPM.. But she seems to have gotten a little better. No yellowing. Stretching has begun this week for sure, too.. I wish I could get each top even with the others.. But they arent too far off from eachother. The main top is gonna be a beast of a cola when shes done! The branches on the main top are bunched together so its gonna be massive. The buds are forming nicely too.. Purple is showing more and more each day. Such a gorgeous plant! I cant wait to see what she looks like when its time to harvest! Besides this runoff issue.. She is doing great! There are a couple leaves with spotting.. Looks like calcium deficiency.. But I'm assuming thats because of the runoff issue.. But hasnt spread at all.. And its really not bad looking.. Just a couple spots here and there.. Just thought I'd mention them. But she is very happy and healthy!.. Updating with pics tomorrow! End of week.. Trichomes are beginning to form.. And holy shit.. When you rub them and smell.. Hooooly flipping shirt.. It legit smells like lemonade.. Not just lemons.. Or citrusy.. But like straight up lemonade.. Wow.. Fucking incredible!.. She has definately stretched as I stated would be obvious this week.. She has done some amazing things this week.. The flowers are gettin big fast! Stacking nicely.. She should be quite the yielder! On to the next!!!...

Week 14 Day 92 (13/11/2020)💧: Great start to the week with watering today and because all the girls are entering their 4th week of flower, I will again be increasing the BioBloom as per the commendations on the watering chart, but since the pH has been increased they are definitely looking great and have enough nutrients between the watering days. So today I gave the girls 4.5 ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of BioGrow, and 1.5ml of TopMax for 1.5L of water. I think I will be giving the same nutrients for the rest of the week as well. Day 93 (14/11/2020): Not that many updates today actually. The girls are looking amazing as always Day 94 (15/11/2020): I wanted to check the trichomes on the girls today with a loupe to see how they are developing up closer but I have no idea where my loupe is :( Really wanted to look closer at the flowers but will have to find it first to take some close up pictures as well Day 95 (16/11/2020)💧: We watered the girls today and gave them the same nutrients as before. They were watered with 4.5ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of BioGrow and 1.5ml of TopMax. I think the TopMax is definitely making the buds fatten up Day 96 (17/11/2020): Took some lovely pictures of the girls today. Was finally able to capture on camera the redness of the flowers (or at least on girl#1). It’s quite difficult to the get the true colours because of the way the camera perceives the light. Day 97 (18/11/2020): Just can’t get enough of the smell of the girls omg they smell so great. It’s kind of a mixture of citrus and spicy at the same time. Cannot wait to taste them Day 98 (19/11/2020)💧: I keep wanting to measure the pH to make sure that it is still above 6.0 but I haven’t had enough time because it takes a while, but I will make sure to measure the pH before the next watering. So as mentioned at the beginning of the week, I will be giving the same nutrients. I watered the girls with 4.5ml of BioBloom, 1.5ml of BioGrow, and 1.5 of TopMax. So far the girls are looking good and happy with the nutrients. I’m only noticing yellowing leaves at the very bottom because there is not enough light, other than that the leaves seem like all the nutrients are balanced well. Also it looks like have finally stopped stretching length-wise and started focusing on growing the buds because the height is the same as last week. But really amazing progress this week, I’ve included a video of all the girls in the tent as well so it’s easier to see how different they are!

First off. I DO NOT USE TERRA AQUATICA NUTRIENTS. I USE FLORANOVA GROW AND FLORANOVA BLOOM Breakup Cake is still growing strong and healthy. Did a little defoliation on her, with more to come. She is a strong resistance plant. Tall and slim this one. Flowering time will happen soon. Once the the daylight hours hit 14 hours, these girls will start rockin. Thanks for the looks and likes my friends. Aug.14th Close inspection of the bakers product, this Breakup Cake is in full on flower. Button sized buds have formed in the last couple days. Not even at 14 hours light yet...Nice. Thanks @Kannabia. Early flowering girls are always welcome here.

11/04/2025 What a busy day. I put up the trellis net last night and had to take it down today for a little while. Both ladies got a new water swap and a new week of nutrients. We've taken out the Grow nutrients and replaced it with Boost. So far they seem to be fine. Looking great even. Not much else to report. It was a busy day. Setting up for a new feed. Then other stuff not related to weed. Both plants have grown to about 17". A little shorter than I'd hoped by now, but they still have stretching to do. I feel like it should be a few more days of stretch then full blown flowering. It looks like Lemon Cherry Cookies is gonna have some super tight stacks. Tight internodal spacing. Anyway, let's hope for 24" or more. On a side note. I'm wondering now if I started the Bloom Nutrients a bit too early. That could be why they aren't already 2 feet tall. Anyway, it's only been a few days. I'm also concerned about stopping the grow nutes this week, but that's what the instructions say. I could add a tiny bit just so they have some growing nutrients left for the stretch? Is that a thing? So we have an automated environment. Today I dropped the humidity and frankly the tent seems to be having trouble getting down there. The fan is running full blast and the humidity is stuck at 52%. The AI doesn't like that so it's chilling away at it one little percent at a time. Lol. Temp is pretty solid during both the day and night. Anyway, that's all for today. 11/05/2025 Almost forgot to do today's check in. First let me start by apologizing for my lack of detailed information. Home life is hectic and I honestly forget to add it. So I'll try much harder to provide more details related to the growing. Like daily TDS and EC. pH is done daily. Although, I have a major problem that I think I found a solution for. How do you change out the water from a DWC system when the top is in a scrog net. Well, in this case it's very simple. A water pump with 2 hoses and a second bucket. Pump the water out, pH, put the water back in. I might have to get a water cooler to do it, but that's ok. I'll get one of the DIY version. For water changes, just as simple. Drain the water into the second bucket then fill the bucket back up with fresh nutrients. However, I think a weekly change would be required to prevent buildup that I can't get to and not every 2 weeks. I'll see what happens I guess, but the ladies are officially in the net. I had to lower it so it's touching the lower colas. I fed the taller ones under the net. And how flat it is. See the pic. Super flat. Very satisfying. Papaya Cookies... Not so flat. Very chaotic with her branches. The left side closest to the wall is like half the height as the middle and the right side is growing straight up to avoid the other plant. It's really weird. Anyway, scrogging that will be a bit of a chore I think. But it needs to be done. I want some quality tops and this is the best way to achieve that goal. Bushy as ever, Lemon Cherry Cookies is turning out to be a beautiful plant. Super flat canopy and leaves galore. She'll definitely need a haircut after the stretch. Don't know how much of one. I like to keep my ladies a little bit leafy while not blocking bud sites or airflow. Papaya Cookies is looking great! Her stem is almost as thick as her counterpart even with the damage she survived, but I'm still getting signs of deficiency. Oh well. I know it's not the nutrients. They are at the right strength. I think. Nearly full dose. But still I think it's just a lack of roots and a choke hold still in the stem. Other than that she is looking absolutely fantastic. Buds everywhere, good color and lots of branches. We'll get them spread out in no time. The Other One... It's growing bud. How is it growing bud?! I found a fungus in the tray so I took it out and I'm keeping it out, but just in case, I sprayed the plants and the fungus with the crop defender 3 stuff. It's really interesting how you can see what I did throughout the plant. Like I starved her, you can see that. The. I overdosed her, you can see that, and I left her alone. Can kinda see that. Now it's grow light deprivation. Instead she gets a 60 watt bulb with a lamp shade. Hahahaha. We'll see what happens. Honestly I can't wait to see what she ends up doing on the end. Will she make it to harvest? Will she wither and die well before harvest? I don't think so. I'm gonna give her a normal dose when I feed her next. I think I've said this before, but unfortunately I can't lift the tray at all. The roots are routed throughout the tray and can be damaged when I place the tray back down, or exposed to the light. Surprisingly I haven't seen any algae. So that's that with the other one. She has a single cola and it looks like it's gonna get big. Hahahaha imagine that. This beat up science experiment grows a huge juicy cola loaded with terps. The environment is giving the AI system a bit of trouble today. I changed the environmental settings for the flowering stage. The temp is still 75°, but I changed the Humidity to 50%. That being said, the system can't get the temp below 76° and the humidity below 56%. I have a dehumidifier in there to help, but I think the only thing it's doing is making the tent hotter. Like really, the humidity won't budge. The dehumidifier I'm getting is on pre order, so I'm trying to work with what I have. It's kinda tough. Well, not for me. But the AI is having a tough time. Lol. I'm gonna open it for a bit and give the exhaust a bit of a break. Nutrients are looking really good. No negative reacti8at all. Kinda think I should've added a little bit of grow in there to help with the stretch. But I think it's too late. They already have established flowers. Also, they're only drinking around a half gallon a day. I would have thought they would be at a gallon by now. Maybe next week. I think they'll get big enough. They are still in early stretch and they're already 17" or 18" tall and growing fast. If my time lapse video show correctly, they are growing roughly an eighth of an inch every half hour to an hour as of the beginning of the week. If she grows a little faster, like a quarter inch every half hour, she should be pretty tall. Not sure how tall, but I'm guessing maybe 29" to 36" total. 36" would be fantastic. Good internodal spacing with a plant that tall. Lemon Cherry Cookies might just end up with colas as long as my forearm, like my Gorilla Cookies run a couple year ago. Great run, that. That's all for today. 11/06/2025 Aargh! Lost the whole entry. Ok, so I'm not writing the whole thing again. It's now the 7th and I'll update later today. But yesterday, we had some awesome growth and the trellis net was lowered to the canopy. I tucked the tallest tops. I also topped off their buckets a little over a half gallon each. Don't know if I mentioned it, but I dropped the light power down to level 8. They took to it like I thought they would. Nice little reach. Not that they weren't having issues at level 9, but I want more stretch. Makes it easier to trim. Lol. 11/07/2025 I desperately need help. So I put the trellis net up and now I can't pH the water. I can't get the plants out of the buckets. Does anyone know how to do this? Seriously need help. Anyway, for now I have taken the trellis off. The branches are really strong, so there shouldn't be any issues. And the pH is now back to 5.8. No idea how it keeps climbing so high. It was 6.7 today. Crazy high. I premix my water too, so it's all settled and mixed up. Then I give it one last good shake and pH before pouring it in. Still climbs. Eventually I'll figure it out... Unlike the damned trellis net thing. Lol. Anyway, we have some beautiful growth. 19" tall and happy. Well, no. Papaya Cookies has serious signs of deficiency. I'm guessing magnesium. Or whatever helps deliver through the stem. It's clogging up. The roots are also not very impressive. But other than that, she's growing pretty fast and has a whole lot of bud sites. The bad leaves are classic signs of deficiency. Yellow spots and whatnot. But they aren't too bad yet. I'll keep her going just in case she makes it. Maybe she'll have some good bud considering she's dying. Lemon Cherry Cookies looks great as well! No issues whatsoever. Even with the water pH level. I should also mention that her root ball is naw massive and getting bigger. By the time she's done growing, she should be a good 30" if the light will allow it. It's only 19" from the canopy. But it's maxed out. Damned small tent! I will have to figure out a way to raise the light even higher. But she's looking great! Drinking an easy half gallon a day. Maybe a bit more. Tons of bud sites and what's nice is that they aren't quite flowers yet, so there's more stretching to be done. The Other One:... .......... The environment was pretty good today. A solid 76° temp and 52% humidity. Good numbers. I'm also thinking about the size of this tent and what that entails. Harder to keep the temp and humidity under control. Plants are a bit more difficult to work with unless you don't move them at all... Or only grow one. Nope. Not happening. Lol. 2 or more. Over all, a 6 foot tent is not the best option. Next is a 4x4. Gotta have it. I'm losing way too much graw space. The two plants I'm currently running. If it were a 4x4, these 2 could flourish without ever touching the other. That makes them even bigger. More space. More growth. That's all for today. 11/08/2025 We start our day out with a couple clippings. Just a few leaves off each plant. The a few super big ones and 2 that were big and facing inward. It's about an hour before lights out for them, so they are a bit droopy. No matter. They'll perk back up when the lights turn back on. I've also read that clipping before dark and feeding at first light are a thing. Apparently, and I believe it, training and trimming at night is the best time as the plants heal better in the dark rest period. Feeding in the morning helps the plant to take in nutrients most efficiently. In turn, the plant gets healed quickly and feeds strong. Utilizing the entire day. That's what I've read at least and I'm doing that. Although, I do chack pH and water levels before dark, I don't do anything unless the pH is out of control or the water is really low. So far I've only let it get down about 2 inches, maybe 3. But I top off at the beginning of each day. So far it's about 3/4 gallon. I expect a gallon a day next week. They are growing so fast. And bud sites are everywhere as well as at least 42 tops between the 2 plants. I didn't get an count, but as it looks, it's around 40 to 50. 42 is superficial. Papaya Cookies looks pretty good for a nutrient deprived plant. She's a fighter. I also started taking the bad leaves off. They don't need to take up energy to heal a leaf. I have a theory. The plant is starving, right? I assume it's due to the size. What happens if I take a whole lot of leaves off. Wouldn't that help the plant distribute nutrients in a more concentrated dose? Maybe the plant will still require all those nutes, but it's no longer supporting tons of leaves and only bud sites. I'd take about 2/3 total off of her. I'll be doing that in small amounts after the stretch. Lemon Cherry Cookies definitely needs a haircut. She'll also be getting about 2/3 snipped off. I might do it in 2 sessions. She's healthy enough to take it without a problem. Her canopy is super flat, except for this one top that grew about 3 inches last night. I don't have the scrog net there anymore, so I'm trying to figure out how to tie her down. The clips are too big for the internodal spacing. I'm thinking of it gets over 4 inches, I'm gonna supercrop it. However, the rest of the plant grew about an inch. Not quite as fast as I'd hoped. But there's still time. The light is still topped out with its current rig, and it's only about 18" from the canopy. But the plants seem to be happy with it. I'll keep an eye on it. Hopefully I'll remember to take a reading after the plants wake up. I can't tell, but I might be able to bump the light power back up to 90%. I don't think it will stress them, but it might and I don't want to stress them yet. The environment is pretty good. Not perfect, but pretty good. The humidity keeps spiking to the top of my limit at 55% it climbs a little bit over, but not for very long. I need a better dehumidifier. 11/09/2025 I can't tell if it's good or bad that I can snap leaves off right at the base just by tugging down on them. I'm guessing good? I've seen people with super healthy plants do that. I wonder if it's better for the plant, like to heal. We'll see. I took some leaves off today. A couple days early, but they were really starting to crowd. So I plucked a bunch off each plant. They didn't seem to mind at all. About an hour and a half before lights out. I'll also have to top them off again. Definitely thirsty plants. I think Papaya Cookies is a little bit ahead of Lemon Cherry Cookies. Not sure how, but she has very well forming buds, where Lemon Cherry Cookies is just starting to form them. She's also drinking more. Not a lot more, but noticably. I also think the stretch is over. From my experience and from what I've read, when the buds start to take actual shape, the stretch is coming to an end. Then it's just stacking. I'm starting to see stacks on both plants now. So it was the perfect time to do a. Light defoliation. In a day or 2, I'll do a full defoliation. As they are autos, I'm only taking about 1/3 of the leaves. If I have to pluck a few here and there afterwards, it's fine. Papaya Cookies is looking really good despite having less uptake at this stage. She's really thirsty though and I'm wondering if that's a good thing absorbing more nutrients to pull in. I'll keep feeding her. I don't think she's gonna die either. Far from it. I give them about 2 to 3 weeks at this growth rate. Probably 3 more weeks. Lol. I'm guessing end of November to early December. She has a whole canopy of tops. The left side is a little low still, but nowhere near as bad as before. So far everything seems to be leveling out on its own. Lemon Cherry Cookies looks absolutely fantastic. She has a whole canopy of tops now and more coming in as I trim away the foliage. Bud sites all up and down each branch, with stacks starting on some of the tops. She's gonna be a good yielder. I'm not putting any guesses in quite yet. I don't have a feel for what she'll produce. She's an indica, so I'm expecting huge fat dense buds. They should drop with resin. As long as I do it properly that is. Lol. The environment is looking great. I decided to drop the night temp to 65°. Not that it goes that low. It stays around 67°. Which is fine. I just wanna prep them for some really good colors. My only concern now is the dehumidifier. Mine will definitely not cut it. I can try to plug one more in, but it's also a small one. Hmmmm, maybe the second one will work. I just have to find it. Lol. All in all a good day. I'll check back in later if there's any updates. Update: 22" is the end height for the stretch. That's both plants. They are totally level. But they didn't grow one bit during lights out. Not one bit, but the buds are forming. And we have stacking. Next week (in 2 days) I'm going to give them the full trim. Not a ton of leaves. Just big ones and ones facing in. Light height is 18.5" I I had slack I didn't realize I had. 2 inches. Looks great! And they are drinking quite nicely. Papaya Cookies is at about 3/4 gallon a day and Lemon Cherry Cookies is at a little over half a gallon. I got a pic of the root ball for you. It's massive. 11/10/2025 Well, today was trimming day. I had planned on it tomorrow, but I got bored this morning before lights out. So I thought to myself. "Hey, it's about an hour til lights out. They stopped stretching, so why not " lol. The only thing I'm not a fan of is that they are already starting to drop for lights out it's probably because they get too much light, but they don't seem to mind. Anyway, the fact that they are already droopy means I can't tell how much stress I'm putting on the plants during the one and only trim session. I'm assuming because they didn't drop much more, they're good to go and will heal up nicely during theights out period. It's only hearsay, but lights out means healing time. Sure... Why not? Makes sense. Papaya Cookies is really looking good. She doesn't seem to be showing anymore signs of deficiency, whatever it was. And is growing happily. Her flowering sites are huge. I'm expecting some fat bugs from this one. Probably long though, because of her sativa leaning stuff. Trimming her was pretty easy. I was surprised at how many open spots there are in the canopy. A couple huge ones that will hopefully fill out over the coming weeks. Lemon Cherry Cookies is really looking good. She has a whole bunch of tops forming and trimming was an absolute breeze. I hardly used the trimmers. No need. The leaves I wanted snapped off with ease. Everything that was big or old. Anything that didn't pop off was left alone. Just over 1/3 of the plant. She's still quite full and has very little space for more tops. Maybe if they spread out a bit around the outside, but that may be the time for scrogging. I don't think so though. Speaking of scrogging, I found out how to pH the water with the plant still in the bucket. Top off everyday with pHed water. Sounds simple, but what if there's no space to top her off? Well, my solution was to buy a small water pump. Pump a gallon out, pH it, and dump it back in. I haven't had to do that, but if that's the case, it's a great idea. Chances are you won't be doing this much or at all. But yah, I guess a simple top up will do the trick. At least for the most part. I found yesterday that the pH was a bit low, so I topped off with a slightly higher pH than normal. Landed right on 5.8. so it clearly works. So simple I completely looked over it. So far the environment is nice today. It's been snowing today, so the humidity in the house is super low. It's keeping the humidity in the tent at or around 50%. The temp is a bit high at 71° for lights out. I have it set to 65° for night temps. It won't get that low. Maybe 67° but that's about it without an air conditioner in the tent. Currently it's 68° in the house. 36% humidity. So that's really it for today. Both pants stopped stretching for sure. But they are stacking. So that's good. Tons of tops. Trimming was awesome. What a morning. Good times.

10.05.21 Anfang der 7. Woche alles läuft ganz gut hab heute wieder gegossen für jede Lady 4,5 l wasser mit Zusätzen bis auf lady #2 die hat nur green sensation bekommen da sie den anderen voraus rennt mal schauen was diese Woche so bringt...... 11.05.21.................................................. 12.05.21 hab es gestern leider nicht geschafft den Bericht zu aktualisieren hab aber auch gestern nix an den Pflänzchen gemacht hab heute mal ein paar buds fotografiert und das erste mal geprüft wie fest die buds sind also gelato 41#2 ist wie ein Felsen die anderen 3 Ladys sind eher fleischig aber dennoch fest (fast wie ein Hüft steak Medium rare) sieht auf jeden fall viel Versprechend aus und der Duft an den fingern nach dem prüfen, ein hauch von zitrone trifft auf leichte Minze mit cremiger Dunst note schon ziemlich geil muss ich sagen freue mich schon drauf wie ein kleiner junge auf sein Eis...... 13.05.21.................................................. 14.05.21 hab mich dazu entschieden nur noch alle 2 Tage was zu posten ab jetzt passiert nicht mehr viel sie wird nach und nach fetter und die trichome sind zum größten Teil milchig werde Sonntag die Spülung beginnen das währe dann Tag 57 nach flip und somit tag 49 der blüte, demnach sollte ich an Tag 63 fertig sein plus 1 bis 2 Tage dann hat sie 9 Wochen blüte hinter sich und 10 Wochen 12/12 der breeder selbst gibt an 7 bis 9 Wochen flower sollte also hin hauen die Angabe bin gespannt wie sie am Ende aus sieht. Werde Sonntag mal versuchen die trichome zu fotografieren aber mein kleines Taschen mikroskop zu fotografieren während ich es an die Blüten halte is etwas kompliziert für mich hab einen ruhe tremor fehler sprich ich zitter sobald ich etwas mache was mit fein Arbeit zu tuen hat, nicht stark,aber ein Bild machen is da schon schwer, werde es Sonntag versuchen an meine Kamera vom Handy zu kleben mit Maler crepp und dann mal schauen ob es einiger maßen klappt..... 15.05.21................................................. 16.05.21 so liebe growmies und canna begeisterte heute war der Tag der Spülung hab jeder Pflanze 22,5 Liter Wasser verpasst so das eigendlich fast alles an Dünger und Zusätzen raus sein sollte die Suppe die am Ende unten raus kam war fast komplett klar wie wasser sein sollte. bitte schimpft jetzt nicht mit mir das ich so hart flushe, ich hab mir gefühlt 1000 blogs durch gelesen von Zamnesia bis royal queen über Humboldt usw. Zum Thema flush und da gibt es ja echt viele Möglichkeiten wie man das ganze angeht der eine giesst normal weiter halt nur mit Wasser der nächste spült mit doppelter Menge von gewohntem giessen und wiederum andere stellen die Pflanzen in die Dusche und spülen da eine ganze Badewannen durch die Erde. War mir da einfach nicht mehr sicher wie ich das am besten an gehe und bin halt am ende auf die idee gekommen wenn das wasser gut klar ist Dann Sollte doch gut gespült sein hoffe ich zumindest in ca 14 tagen hack ich die Ladys Dann ab ihr könnt euch gar nicht vorstellen wie ich mich auf den Tag freue wenn ich schneiden darf ist wie Geburtstag und Weihnachten auf einem Tag........

Week 10 is in the books for the gorilla gas and the tent is filled with a skunky piney aroma. Very strong. All the plants have filled out tremendously and now I'm just waiting for the trichomes to turn a little amber. Once we have about 10% I'll chop them down. Thinking about doing a 48 hour dark period also before the chop. Thanks for following along!
