Day 73, 25th of November 2020: Red Mandarine still not red unfortunately.... hope she will be lol. There is no any issue at all all good not much to report. Let's say we are half way. Buds on the way just need to wait to be done :) Fertilization is still the same every second day with the rationand mixture above stated. The lamp is on 11.15 min and off 12.45 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -45 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.15 pm.

I just fed the Nebula plant on day 139 the rest got straight water. Added HLG Scorpion R Spec light panel today, very heavy, had to use two poles for support. PPFDs across canvas seem to be in good flowering range now hung at 18" hope to finish in a couple weeks more or less.

Completed Week 12 (Week 4 Bloom) with a bang, discovered I had Powdery Mildew! Culprit was a newer plant from another tent. Treated with a milk/water (60/40) solution and gave it a serious defoliation and even removed really bad PM'd bud sites. So pissed that I had left both tents open, when I should have kept only one open at a time. I am hoping I can stay on top of keeping it in control and will look to use an H2O2/water solution to briefly soak the harvest in afterwards to kill off any PM and other bacteria. I think next time, unless I know I can easily access all four sides of a scrog, it is very difficult to maintain and defoliate properly.

8/23 I WATERED THE NATURAL MK ULTRA AND THE 10TH PLANET IN THE BACK WITH A GALLON AND THE TWO TENS SPLIT A GALLON. It's hotter today and the wind is picking up. I wish I had gotten rid of that plant when I thought to. Oh well. I'm going to have to bite the bullet and treat things. Smell is increases as well as flower size. However I'm noticing more leaves that are yellowing and falling off. Smell has intensified. The special kush in late flower doesn't seem to be producing trichomes like it should. Or maybe it's still early. I see some but by this time I would think it would be frosty as hell! It's rained like once this summer. I've put tons of work into defoliating. I'm not sure if I'll try a controlled spray trying to avoid buds or if I should use a sponge and just hit every leaf. At least I'm seeing that the buds are still expanding and smelling despite these invisible Bastards. It's not like I see them. Even my traps only caught like one. I'll update as I go. EDIT: WATERED THE TENTH PLANET AND THE LATE SOECIAL KUSH 1 GAL. PLAN ON FEEDING TOMORROW. I DID A SHIT TON OF DEFOLIATION. I DONT SEE ADULT THRIPS BUT I SEE THE EGGS AND SHIT IN THE CREVICE AND SOMETHING IS COMING AND EARING SMALL LOWER FOLIAGE. I RIPPED TWO INTERIOR BRANCHES OFF THE PLANTS I TREATED BEFORE WITH CITRIC ACID BECAUSE I FOUND A COUPLE STOPS OF MOLD ON THE STEM. AFTER RESEARCHING THRIPS WITH A.I. UNTIL IT LITERALLY CHANGED PROTOVAL AND STOPPED HELPING ME SAYING IT DANT HELP CULT8VATE CANNABIS AFTER GIVING ME SEVERAL DIFFERENT INSTRUCTIONS AND OPTIONS. I SCREENSHOTTED THEM THOUGH. I USED THE SAME MIXTURE OF CITRIC ACID AMD DAWN ONLY HALF STRENGTH AND HIT THE 10TH PLANET AND PINK KUSH THAT ARE PATIENT ZERO. THEN I TOOK A SPONGE AND EITHER DEFOLIATED OR WIPED THE LEAVES WITH A SPONGE AND SAME CONCOTION ON THE SPECIAL KUSH IN THE TEN. I DEFOLIATED MORE AND THEN "SPOT TREATED" A FEW LEAVES ON A BOTTOM BRANCH OF THE 10TH PLANET WITH MITE X. I'M WAITING UNTIL THE MORNING TO SEE THE RESULTS AND BEFORE I MOVE FORWARD. I HAVE ORGANOCIDE BEE SAFE AND I KNOW IT WORKS GOOD BUT IT SMELLS LIKE SHIT. IM HOPING ILL FIGURE THIS OUT. 8/24 Didn't have time to do a video or take any pictures. I pit a lot of work in the garden yesterday. I removed a couple small branches that had mold on the stem. If I had listened to my intuition and moved that plant (instead of listening to my dad) I probably could've negated this mess. Windy as hell yesterday. Maybe that's why I don't see mich damage from the thrips. The runt in the 50 has some silver ingredients on it. I'm considering using spinosad. Those are way earlier in flower and that shit WORKS. WATERED TODAY;BIG MK ULTRA 1.5, THREE IN THE BACK ROW, CHEMDOG AND TENTH PLANET ALL GOT 1 GALLON. THE TWO TENS SPLIT A GALLON. I THEN FED EVERYTHING WITH A QUART OF FOOD. I'll keep an eye out on the dosage and see what the can handle. I left out plant doctor as I'm dealing with thrips. Took a leaf that looked like sep off the pink kush in the 50 with half used soil. I didn't have much time to look around but I will when I get back and I'll put some vids/pics up. The plants that I treated with citric acid looked no worse for the wear and actually BETTER than they hadcthe day before. The other 10th planet and the Pink kusg in the ten are the worst. If I can't beat it I may junk them. I'm planning on treatingvtge plants I didn't yesterday tonight. I may use a different treatment I'm not sure.

D29. We're at the start of the fifth week of veg, and all is well in the tent. I did some more LST to spread her out as much as possible before she goes into flower. ------------------------------ D31. I'm fairly confident that she is stunted since she is extremely compact and doesn't seem to grow much. She will go into flower any day now, but she is still pretty small. I'm adjusting the LST wires daily and today, I did some minor defoliation by removing a few low branches and leaves. Maybe that will redirect some energy and help her stretch out. ------------------------------ D32. Alright, she is now officially in flower. I was hoping for a few more days in veg, but she wouldn't have it. I brewed up a quick compost tea using oat flour as the food source. Some people claim that that will result in a fungally dominant tea, so I thought I'd try it out. I also added humic acid and a teaspoon of myco because why not? Honestly, I'm not sure it is even possible to create a fungally dominant AACT, as the constant water movement will most likely tear the fungal hyphae apart as they form. In any case, a different food source should promote other bacteria than the molasses I usually use. Diversity is the name of the game in living soil. Well, in life in general. I gave her around 1 liter (5% of container volume) of tea @ pH 6.1. ------------------------------ D35. We're on the last day in the fifth and final week of veg, as she is now in flower. All is well in the tent, and there isn't much to report. One thing I did was buy a mushroom grow kit to keep in the tent. I figured I'd test it out and see how it works. The mushrooms produce CO2 that the plants love, and hopefully, I'll get some tasty Oyster mushrooms to eat — two birds with one stone and all that. ------------------------------

Die Pflanzen befinden sich nun in Blütewoche 5 und entwickeln sich prächtig. Die Buds verdichten sich sichtbar, die Harzproduktion nimmt stark zu, und die ersten Trichome beginnen, sich milchig zu färben. Das Aroma wird intensiver, mit süß-erdigen Noten, die auf eine starke Reifephase hindeuten. Das semi-hydroponische System läuft weiterhin stabil und zuverlässig. Die Pumpe sorgt für gleichmäßige Zirkulation und hohe Sauerstoffwerte im Wurzelbereich. Die Pflanzen zeigen keinerlei Stresssymptome – das Wurzelsystem ist aktiv, die Nährstoffaufnahme konstant, und das Wachstum harmonisch. Die Düngung mit 6 ml/l Canna Coco A + B bleibt optimal. Kein Überdüngungszeichen, keine Verfärbungen – das Blattwerk zeigt sich sattgrün mit leichtem Glanz. Der pH-Wert wird regelmäßig kontrolliert und bleibt stabil im optimalen Bereich. Die Struktur der Pflanzen ist offen und gut durchlüftet, was Schimmelbildung vorbeugt. Die Buds sind gleichmäßig über die gesamte Fläche verteilt und beginnen, deutlich an Gewicht zuzulegen. Die Triebe bleiben standfest, trotz zunehmender Blütenmasse. Insgesamt läuft das Setup sehr rund: Semi-Hydro erweist sich weiterhin als klarer Vorteil, sorgt für konstante Feuchtigkeit, aktive Wurzeln und eine beeindruckende Blütenentwicklung. Die Pflanzen befinden sich jetzt mitten im Höhepunkt der Blüte – ab hier geht’s Richtung Reifung und Aroma-Feinschliff.

Unfortunately I had to take the photos a little earlier this week as I'm traveling. I think the biggest stretch is finished. In the meantime, the little one exudes a pleasant fruity smell. Day 56 Photoshooting Defoliation

Vamos familia, es la cuarta semana de floración, y estás Kritical aparte de carencias que vamos a solventar ya, van progresando bastante bien, las flores ya están agarrando bien los tricomas y ya empiezan a brillar de por si. Es una variedad bastante rápida a ver si soluciono las carencias esta semana y ya comenzamos recta final. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 20, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/65% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo, buenos humos 💨💨💨.

The double kush cake has done well in the last two weeks with almost no feeding as I realised that I overfeed her. She will continue to dry out until enough oxygen is in the substrate before I feed her again. She has ceased growing with roughly 2cm growth in the last two weeks. She is now on full bloom with little stunt on the pistols. She is filling the gaps a bit more than I anticipated and her leaves seem to be stabling out fine. She now stands approximately 58cm from the soil.

____________________________ ~Seedsman Fuel D.O.G.~ ____________________________ 'Fuel D.OG Feminised was bred by crossing two highly celebrated and popular strains from the USA - Chemdawg (Sour Diesel x OG Kush) and Fuel OG (Diesel x Headband). Fuel D.OG is a 70% sativa, 30% Indica plant with very good potential yields both indoors and outdoors. Resin and THC production is also at a very high level. Fuel D.OG improves on Chemdawg, being a much more robust plant with a much more intense flavor while also developing a larger calyxes than Chemdawg. Its robust appearance is typified by a thicker central stem that is so strong that it does not need to be supported during the later flowering stage in spite of the high degree of sativa stretch it undergoes once flowering has been initiated. Large spear-shaped buds surround the main stem like a crown. Outdoor cultivation produces plants that can grow up to 350 cm. tall in optimum conditions. When cultivated indoors Fuel D.OG produces yields of 450 - 600 gr/m2 in a 65 - 70 day flowering period with generous quantities of resin already noticeable in the nascent buds during the third week. Its height can be controlled indoors by switching to the flowering light-schedule once plants are established and also by the use of the SCRoG technique whereby plants are trained horizontally. Outdoors, each plant can yield 700 - 800 gr. of large, sticky buds with harvests in the northern hemisphere ready at the beginning of October. Its large trichomes, concentration of terpenes and the sheer quality of resin make this a very serious proposition for extract/concentrate makers. Fuel D.OG has more intense OG Kush flavors than the Chemdawg parent, with increased diesel emphasis and with citric, lemon and grapefruit scents. THC content is very high with low proportions of CBD. The effect experienced by consumers is one of intense relaxation evolving into a long-lasting narcotic stone that makes Fuel D.OG more suitable for evenings unless there are no important tasks to be completed.' *description credit to Seedsman Seeds __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ -Characteristics- BREEDER/BRAND: Seedsman GENETICS: Chemdawg (Sour Diesel x OG Kush) and Fuel OG (|Diesel x Headband) VARIETY: Mostly Sativa FLOWERING TYPE: Photoperiod SEX: Feminised THC CONTENT: 20% Plus CBD CONTENT: <1% YIELD: Indoors: 450 - 600 gr/m2; Outdoors: 700 - 800 gr/plant PLANT HEIGHT: Up to 350 cm. outdoors GROWS: Greenhouse, Indoors, Outdoors FLOWERING TIME: 65 - 70 days HARVEST MONTH: Beginning October TASTE / FLAVOUR: Citrus, Diesel, Grapefruit, Kush, Lemon EFFECT: Powerful, Relaxing, Sedative, Stoned __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80℉ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 9/13- With approx. 10 weeks of growth behind her now she's going into her 5th week of flower now and let me tell you the pictures don't do her justice...

She's continuing on her mission of stacking her flowers, which are developing beautifully and have a delicious sweet citrus aroma to them right now. I did not water yesterday, so today I watered with 1.5g of straight de-chlorinated water that was ph'd to 6.5 @ 72℉ and rotated her pot...

Her flowering is continuing beautifully and she's smelling stronger every day it seems! I'm staying on top of tucking leaves blocking light and turning her pot daily as well. 9/19- Five weeks of flower on the books! We're halfway there now, she's stacking her flowers tightly going into Week Six and she's looking phenomenal! 🤩 When I watered her today I added 1 tbsp/g each of Kelp Extract and Fish Emulsion (both liquid) to the 1.5g of straight de-chlorinated water she received, which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 74℉. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Day 96, 15th of December 2020: Wao and wao... this is what I can say. A bit late I was on holiday I usually start the week with the first day but now with the last one. So let's start with the "black sheep" of this group as she is alone here RQS Wedding Gelato. Easy growing issue free little bushy lady. Absolutely great choice of grow. Pretty much ready for Christmas but she can be cut even now lol.... And now let's speak about the Original Sensible Seeds' girls... Well Black Ghost OG similarly to RQS Wedding Gelato is calm little bushy and issue free lady.... no problem all good ready for Christmas.... Runtz Gum the thick chick with heavy big buds and excellent appearance is really amazing. I placed a stick there and fixed her to look better... It was not necessarily but i have done it. She needs more time pretty much done ny Christmas or a bit after.... Gelato from Original Sensible Seeds is similar in terms of acting such as streching and all that ... The same situation applies not much to really say we wait ;) I am really happy to have these ladies.... Well, Do-Si-Dos OG is the craziest one ever... lol.... not only due her crazy kind of streching style but the trichome developement that comes along to the fan leaf "holder" stem is pretty crazy.... Those buds are like a diamonds sticky and she would be ready to harvest but need to wait because I need to go.... I really had to fix her by placing a stick there I broke one stem but fixed as it did not come off... so crazy especially now because of the weight of the buds... now she looks even more beautiful... I think she is the most challenging grow ever. Original Sensible Seeds genetics is unique really high quality just look at them. Royal Queen Seeds as well but this is my second grow from them my first was a Green Gelato which is the same calm littlw bushy plant. Amazing very good for newbies ;) I am going on holiday again and back on 28th of December so after harvest starts. Girls will be cut after. The 7th weeks starts with tomorrow 16th of December.... Only flushing and no more nutritient will be used. Soon full report comes. Lamp is the same 11 hours on and 13 off.... The last 4 days they will get 4 days darkness and only ventilation will be working no even more water ;)

1/21: I rotated the edge plants and foliar fed with big bloom a few times today. 1/22: I fed them about 3/4 gallon each after top-dressing their pots with a heaping tablespoon of happy frog cavern culture( bat and seabird guano). That will make some P and K available to them over the next 2 weeks as they begin to flower. Aside from that, I went with full strength veg nutes because I'm still seeing some yellowing and som cal-mag deficiencies. I also added some more liquid molasses. They're gonna need the energy as they start their stretch. I foliar fed a few times throughout the day with big bloom. 1/23: EXPLOSIVE GROWTH last night...love it...everybody is stretching...pretty sure the 14/10 photoperiod is working!! I foliar fed with big bloom a few times today. 1/24: These girls all look to be very indica in leaf shape and are outpacing everything else in the garden. 1/25: I tied down the main of the tallest one today, then watered with about a half-gallon each including cal-mag, humic acid, bembe, armor si, and signal. 1/26: Damnit these bitches are gonna be a pain in my ass. They are growing so much faster than all the other plants., and if everybody else doesn't catch up in the next couple of days, I'll have no choice but to supercrop all their branches. 1/27: That's it for week 5-

The Blackberry Moon Rocks are looking promising. One of them is growing into this beautiful little bush, and I think it's almost ready to harvest. The other plant is stacking up buds, but I'm thinking it's still a couple of weeks away. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

Week 7 let's go ! Day 152 - 04/11 : The plant symptoms have seemed to slow down. The soil is also starting to dry out a bit more which might have been a problem. Day 155 - 07/11 : She was flushed in the morning with about 4L of water and 2L of a 30% strength microbial+trichoderma tea to innocculate the soil in case the microlife took a hit. The run off was 1L. I also switched the 400W MH for a 400W HPS to finish off with a little extra boost of light + different spectrum and see if it makes any differences. The light were moved up by approximately 20-30cm. They are now at about 70cm from the plant. I wondered if the light were maybe too close and caused all those strange symptoms. Let's see if there is any change in their behaviour. Day 156 - 08/11 : It seems the plant is a lot happier. It has only been a day but I feel like she is fattening up faster suddenly. Or it could be that she has recovered from the slight chock from a few days ago. Day 158 - 10/11 : Yep she is definitely happy again. I am convinced it was the light or at least it was part of the problem, I am seeing a lot of growth all of a sudden, on all plants and not just this one. Trichome are up, pistilles are up, calyxes swelling, everything is running smooth again. She is looking ready already, from a bud general appearance I could almost harvest now, but the trichomes are still mostly clear and I have a feeling she has a little more in her. I suspect the reason for such large amount of already brown trichomes might have been the light excess they went through.

1 OG kush Shows Sings of Nitrogen Toxicity (cut most leafs off) Soil PH: 5.7 - 6.8 (lowest and highest reading) Flushed all plants with microrayza fungi Watering with organic bio activated tea every 3 days (potassium = algae, bokashi = nitrogen, worm hummus and molasses) Day 28 to 35 Day 32: Accidently cut off main stem of a very healthy OG kush plant, let´s see how it bounces back in a few days. Perhaps I just HST´d by accident Day: 32: Some of my autoflower GSC already started to flower Day 32: 3 OG kush plants are weak, one has a weak stem, second one had a problem since seedling (grew into the ground), third one i cut off main stem by accident Day 34: OG kush plant was removed after many tries of getting it back to its feet

Hey guys, did some defoliation yesterday because it was Flower day 21. I got rid off the lower branches and flowers with little to no chance of receiving enough light. I snapped off the leaves which were looking a bit old. I’m pretty happy with the result, since it is my first grow I didn’t know how or how well it will go. After defoliating her I gave 5L with around 20ml of Hesi root complex to help her get fit after the operation. I feed her once a week with bloom nutrients 50ml / 10L. I also attached new wires to the twigs to continue with the LST and to improve light penetration. So far no problems and I’m pretty happy. Also I haven’t smoked weed for 3 Weeks now and I am excited to wait till harvest with my break. If I trust sensi seeds she needs around 50-60 days to complete flower, so let’s say we have 1/3. My SanLight evo 4-120 is running on 80% power which is 212W and I have 30-35cm distance to the canopy, depends on which buds you measure. Thanks for reading. Have a nice day
