Hello Diary, Purple Lemonade has reached the end of its third week, at the same time it has completed the vegetation phase and is entering the flowering phase. This week it grew an impressive 20 cm, it got a bunch of new leaves and now it's at the stage where it looks like a small bush. Purple lemonade has slowly started to form flowers. The leaves are a nice green color and look healthy. It is really developing very nicely, which makes me super happy. The summer heat is still present which affects the temperature in the grow box, this week the average was 29 degrees although sometimes the temperature rises to over 31 degrees. But I don't notice that it is harming them, I make sure to water them regularly, so that the soil does not remain too dry although that sometimes happens. Every week, as the plants grow, I increase the amount of water when watering. I continue to add Bio Grow Fertiliser and CalMg with each watering. pH I drop to 6.0 with Plagron's Lemon Kick. At the end of the week, more precisely after taking photos for day 21, I increased the power of the led lights to 80%. Here is a quick overview of the week: 10/08/2024 - Day 17. Watering. I prepared 8 liters of water, added Bio Grow Fertilizer and CalMg and with that amount I evenly watered all three plants on the farm. 13/08/2024 - Day 20. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as the three days before. 14/08/2024 - Day 21. Photographing and measuring the height of the plants. Official end of the vegetation phase. Purple Lemonade - Day 21. - 33 cm That's all from me for this week, thanks to everyone for the comments and see you soon.

This lady has recovered nicely from my 3rd and final hack attack on her. Leaves were so huge, still cannot get over it. Added an Exhale Homegrown Co2 bag to the tent right behind and above her this week as well. I have never used one of these before, but I figured I would give it a shot. More, any, will be good for the plant. Judging by the way she is growing, I imagine she will be hitting her prime height by the end of week 9. Fingers crossed, we will then be going to flower :) Time-lapse lost a days worth of photos. Some user error of some type. Lets just not question it shall we.

Had a productive week for growth and made a few improvements. Bud development has been great this week. The buds are filling in the gaps mostly and creating nice colas. My plan is for the next 2 weeks to feed AN Overdrive. Then flush for 2 weeks i think. She is very sticky and has a sweet smell of candy grape. Still not a blast of smell when i open the tent but smelling her close she's sweet :D I re tied all the outside colas to make them have even spacing again. The red poles were in need of some better reflection so i foil taped them. The sealed box for my carbon filter was made when i was using the cfl. The way i needed to hang the light meant the outlet from the sealed box into the tent could only be 4 inches in diameter. With the Cob Led, it's attached on the side poles, so decided to max out the outlet. It is the full 6inches and cooling is more efficient now. (Maybe i should try origarmi) The black clip on fan was touching the tent so not drawing air as well. Also made an annoying vibration if touching the tent wall. I used the extender i had on the side vertically and mounted it horizontaly. Has opened the tent out a bit and have free space behind the fan. Have add photos of all improvements. Checked on the outdoor grow and is looking good. Did improvements on it last week by adding a 'gate'. Had spotted deer when visiting previously so didn't want to take any chances. Attached photos from visit yesterday. Video is from week before when i did the gate and surround supports. Left plant Glue Gelato Auto is my friends. It's the same age as my Wed Cake but grown outdoors it's whole life. Right plant is Purple Punch auto which is mine. 4 weeks younger than my Wed Cake and Glue Gelato but started indoors and then planted outdoors. This spot was only for 1 plant originally but after the situation from the other spot we had to take the GG there. Thanks for checking my diary See you next week and happy growing

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 There has been much change this week!! First there was a big defoliation done, I cleaned the bottom of the plants. All the growth that wouldn't amount to anything because the light doesn't penetrate that low. Also took off the biggest fan leaves to give more room for light. Then finally switched to 12/12.. After just 36 hours after the defoliation there was a major change. New growth everywhere, colas started stretching upwards fast. By far the tallest girls in the tent. Her colas are stacking up nice and tight if she keeps that up we'll have some nice dense colas. 😁 Great reaction to the defoliation and 12/12 switch. I'm still watering every other day, After the defoliation I watered with only Enzymes 2ml/L to clean the roots a bit then started with the nutrientes again. I dropped the amount of grow nutrients from 3ml/L to 1ml/L and started adding bloom nutrientes 2ml/L for now. I'll slowly be upping the bloom nutrientes and after week 2 I'll no longer add grow nutrients. That's it for this week. Stay tuned to see how they flower. Stay safe!

Hallo liebe Gartenfreunde 🙂 Es geht in die letzte Runde. Wie im letzten Update schon mal angesprochen, mussten wir von einer Seite des Haupttriebes was weg nehmen da es eher abgreift ist. Der Trieb wurde durchgehend nicht so gut versorgt wie der Rest der Pflanze. Dennoch, dafür dass sie sehr viel sich selbst überlassen war, ist es soweit ok. Wir hoffen sehr, dass sie nicht alt zu sehr vermännlicht. Ab und zu sieht man mal ein Vermehrungssamen. Olle Zicke sie 🤭 Im ganzen trotzdem ein tolles Experiment(9 Monate), tolle Erfahrungen, was zum Beispiel das Thema Erbgut angeht und insgesamt hätte es viel schlechter für solch ein Vorhaben über 2 Generationen und 2 mal kurzer Blüte registration laufen können. Die Reife der Trichome bei dem schon abgenommen sind Milchig und 10 Prozent ca. dunkle bzw. Lilafarbende Drüsenköpfe. Passt soweit, aber man kann schon mit bloßem Auge sehen, dass sie kaum Blüten Volumen aufgebaut haben. Aber es ist halt so 😇 Wir werden ab jetzt ins Spülen über gehen und zum Wochenende wahrscheinlich komplett Ernten. Alle zwei Tage wird Sie Wasser mit CalMag bekommen ca. 0.6 l und ab Freitag wahrscheinlich für 48 Stunden trocken und dunkel stehen. In diesem Sinne wünschen wir allen eine angenehme neue Woche und viel Erfolg bei euren Vorhaben! 🙌 Falls, vielen Dank für das vorbeischauen 😉 Viele Grüße an alle Gartenfreunde 😎✌️

My Grand Turismo plant is one of the smaller ones, but it's definitely the mightiest of the bunch! It's short, stocky, and looks incredibly healthy. I've got a feeling this little powerhouse is gonna produce some seriously potent buds. It's got that classic Grand Turismo aroma – earthy and sweet with a hint of spice. I can't wait to see what this one yields! This past week has been a whirlwind of work, leaving little time for anything else. My phone's camera roll is sadly neglected, with only a few snapshots to show for it. But finally, I'm finding a moment to catch up on my grow diaries. It's been exciting to see the progress, even if it's just through photos. I'm looking forward to documenting the next stage!

Been off here for a while, thought I’d update. She’s been battling some calcium and N deficiencies lately, so I’ve topdressed her with some dolomite lime and started giving her full strength feeds. She’s been thickening up quickly and nicely, and she’s smelling like cheesy BO but in a good way.
