When I started this grow my goal was to train a mother plant for clones. The Chemdawg#4 plant produced dozens of clones for me. After I gave some away, through process of elimination I selected the top twelve clones. And those 12 plants are really my harvest. I have 2 Canuk Cookies and 1 Do si dos in the veg tent now. And I’m just about in cloning mode again. The CD#4 smoke from Growers Choice Seeds is a very potent evening time smoke. The buds are very frosty. Taste gassy and chem. I harvested right around 3oz from the CD#4 mother plant. Thanks everyone for reading. I’ll upload pics of the final harvest in about 50 days. They’ve been flowery since May 1 Update: I added some pic of the (my real harvest) CD#4 clones. They have been flowering for 17 days now. I also switched from Botanicare and Fox Farms nutes to a completely organic dry amendment called “Earth Dust” by The Green Sunshine Company. I can’t say enough about TGSC. Theyre grow lights are unbelievable. Best light I have ever used Hands down. I will add more photos soon. Thanks for reading

Hey guys! 👏 Hope everyone is doing well! This week was interesting. I made a small flush because I wanted to know how much salt my plants had in the soil (considering I've fed my plants with a lot of nutrients the past few weeks) aaaaand the results were quite interesting! They obviously had tons of salts! Here are the results of the runoff water: Falco 5.94 pH 1139 ppm (2278 us/m) Max 5.85 pH 2352 ppm (4704 us/m) Roko 5.64 pH 2453 ppm (4906 us/m) Boomer 5.72 pH 1765 ppm (3530 us/m) Surprisingly enough the plants that had the "worst" runoff values were the plants who had the most foliage and their leaves were the greenest. The pH "loss" of all the plants was also within the expected margin so that's good! 👌 The buds look beautiful and I also noticed some of the plant leaves are starting to turn purple 😍 the smell is also getting stronger and it's quite citric, I love it! Anyway, that's all for now. Thanks for reading! 🙌

Als ich dachte, ich hätte noch Zeit, hab ich mich komplett verschätzt und damit warscheinlich auch den ersten richtigen Growfehler gemacht. Die Pflanze ist viel zu hoch gewachsen ... was meint Ihr? Was kann ich das nächste mal anders machen? 😞

Week 5! All those pic are from the same day. First pic is before transplanted in 11 liter pot ( I took off the weakest plant cause just 10 fit in my box) the soil is made of light mix and warm casting but I top dress with: 70/30 of 444 and 284 - 1 Tbsp per gallon Rock dust -1Tbsp per gallon I sprinkle the root ball with mycorrhiza and water with compost the of warm casting and molasses brew for 24 hours. Then I put the scrog net and bend all the plant under it, I use the cropping technique cause most of the plant were quite strong as u can see from the pic. Ps: don’t mind about the sound of the first video I’ve just been unlucky cause they pass in front of my house while I was make the video😂

About a day into week 3 . Growing very strong and fast. Transplanted into the 5gal bags at night . Over week 3 they exploded. They wanted the room .. the 5gal bags made that happen. Amazing results with just foxfarm ocean forest soil.

Cracked a few stems, twisting them 2, 3 points in the main stem and once on each lateral stem, very early monstercropping, cracked the stem without rupturing xylem or phloem channels, minimal recovery, maximum stress and response. There is a new need for significant reinforcement. I know this knuckle will eventually require the throughput of a superhighway. No point in dilly-dallying. Growth grinds to a halt, at least it feels like that. Energy is now distributed fairly evenly to each stem at equal heights and equal light intensity. Growth is not slower; there is just far, far more to do all at once in equal measure, start raising her soil EC up to 1.0mS/cm and maintaining. Upped to 40DLI for now. Temps back in the daytime 87+ range. NPK Raw Grow to keep the soil water solution at 1.0ms/cm, thereabouts. Enzymes and amino acids are applied foliarly to the underside of leaves each night 🌙. Aim to coat the undersides of the leaves where the majority of the stomata are located. Use a spray with smaller droplets to increase the surface area of the leaves that are covered. Adding a surfactant to the mix can help the spray spread better on the leaf surface, improving absorption. Just remember not to add anything immobile.. Heat denatures enzymes. "blah blah what's the point? It's hardly going to do much." Plants have a surprisingly low photosynthetic efficiency, typically converting only 1% to 2% of the total solar energy that hits them into chemical energy. (Too much defoliation and high VPD all night). In fully optimized conditions, that rises to 6%-8% efficiency. Plants may use approximately 25% of their respiratory energy (50% of total respiration) for enzyme turnover, which includes production and repair, but the exact energy cost for heat damage repair is not specific, as the total respiratory energy is not definitively given for plants. Plants generally have a high protein turnover rate, with enzymes making up a substantial portion of this turnover. 10% total ATP is photosynthetically processed. 90% total ATP is processed during cellular respiration. 25% -50% total respiratory energetic output is spent on enzyme turnover (Ballpark). Sounds like it's worthwhile to me. The longer you have waited, the harder you must swing.

Día 69, 21 de flor. Foto 1 pre-peluquero Foto 2 y 3 post-peluquero Vídeo #MerryBerry Así va la cosa chavalitris! Se llevan el último arreglo ya en flor, a ver si las engañamos y engordan más de la cuenta Toca riego en todas menos Gorila, que va unos días más lenta, y aún no tiene esa sed. Favoritas de momento: La #MerryBerry 3 huele muy muy diferente. No la he acabado y creo que ya quiero repetirla 😅 Cultivo fácil, estructura, mucha resina. También top la #BlueberryMuffins 1 apuntando buena estructura, producción y resina! La #weddingcake 2 y 3 mejoraron tras la apical y en Stretch juntaron nudo, 2 con con más resina. La #ChocolateMintOg 1 solo es porra principal, pero parece tirar bien de resina. La #Gorilla está por ver, pero también tiene un olor peculiar desde hace semanas.

Hey everyone 😃. This week is still going perfectly 😃👍. The trichomes have been checked (70% milky, 20% amber and 10% clear) so there is still some time until harvest :-). Let's start the week: Flowering day 56 Today the plant was checked for health. Flowering day 57 Today it was poured with 1.2 l, only with Clean Fruits so that you can use up your remaining nutrients 👍. Flowering day 58 The humidifier was refilled and the tent cleaned. Flowering day 59 Today was only controlled. Flowering day 60 The humidifier was refilled and the tent cleaned. Flowering day 61 Today was poured with 1 liter, and the trichomes checked, of course the tent was also cleaned. Flowering day 62 Today was cleaned, the plant cobtrolized for trichomes, mold and health. everything looks great 👍. And fresh osmosis water was filled in tanks for next week. The way the trichomes look like, is harvested in about 10-14 days 👌👍. Until the next update, I wish you all the best, stay healthy 🙏🏻 and let it grow 🍀👍 You can buy this Strain at https://thecaliconnection.com/seeds/girls-scout-cookies-34.html You can buy the fertilizer at https://www.greenbuzzliquids.com/ Type: Girls Scout Cookies ☝️🏼 Genetics: GSC Tint Mint 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow Led Quantum Board 100 W 💡 Bloom Lamp : 2 x Todogrow Led Cxb 3590 COB 3500 K 205W 💡💡☝️🏼 Soil : Canna Coco Professional + ☝️🏼 Fertilizer: Green Buzz Liquids : Organic Grow Liquid Organic Bloom Liquid Organic more PK More Roots Fast Buds Humic Acid Plus Growzyme Big Fruits Clean Fruits Cal / Mag Organic Ph - Pulver ☝️🏼🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 - 0.4 EC.

So this is the Tear Down week. The timing of it makes it so i will need to the harvest flag in a few days when I can weight and test the plants. I have included the Cleaning, and Cutting and some Root Porn. I will make the harvest post in about 4-5 days, when I can trim these plants. There is a lot of Plant here. I got way more than I was expecting. I don't have a scale that measure this amount of plant, without taking like 10 measurements and then adding them together. So I will just be posting the dry weight. I will post the wet weight as dry weight * 1.65. Autopots: Wow, what a great product. I have been blown away by how well and how easy it was to work with them. They really did solve the watering issues. Excellent product. If you are a beginner, start with Autopots. -= Lessons Learnt =- - Overdrive the air to your Autopots. In my control plant, I used a small rectangle air stone (instead of a standard air dome). This lead to root rot and some other issues, it also put significantly less air into the water. The root rot, give the material for the Brown Algae to grow. Using a huge Air-disc-Air-Stone would be an excellent combo to mix in with the air dome itself. Something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Pawfly-Diffuser-Suction-Hydroponics-Aquarium/dp/B01MY3AQ33 at the bottom and the air-dome on top of it, will be what I do with my next experiment. - Air stone in the reservoir. I had two instances where algae grew into the res. An air stone would have helped. It would have also helped my control plant get less root rot. Given the amount that the air-domes and air sources got engulfed, having the water have more o2 in it would have only been beneficial. - Don't grow 6 plants in a 4x4. Since my control plant was about 1/8th the size of the others, I think I could have grown 5 in the shape of a 5 (on a 6 sided dice)⚄ This placement would give a much more spaced canopy for airflow and more importantly light. The sides of some of the plants were lighter green and produced larf due to lack of light penetration. - This tent was on 19-5 schedule. This worked out very well for this strain. After every lights on, they were in the praying position, so this strain was able to recover in that 5hrs off. If I had more seeds, I would run these again, and try 20-4. I think this strain could handle it. All for all, I think I'm going to 19-5 as my default timing. This kept up a solid DLI. - Staring at .9EC (really .7 EC cause my water here is .2 EC) Then bumping up at .1 a week, until 1.6EC worked out VERY well. I experimented on this crop all the way up to 1.9EC, which burnt the tips of this plant. I think if I did this strain again, I would do 1.6EC until 3-4 weeks left then crank it to 1.9. It did plump them up when I went to 1.9, however it left them looking rough. Bulk was added though. - Sticking to 6.0PH for all of veg, and 2 weeks into flower worked great. The plant had solid and consistent color and leaf shape . The plant's did get hurt, due to some issues (as noted on the weeks). I switched to 6.5 PH in the last 3-4 weeks and it helped them recover, and plump up noticeably. -VPD. The #1 thing I focused on was VPD. I keep it .9kpa range, as best as humanly possible. It was honestly, HUGELY noticeable compared to my other grows. I know truly understand the value of properly dialed in VPD. This is the one lesson that will stick with me forever. - Super-cropping: On the plants I give the chiropractic treatment too, had much thicker stems as much larger channel internally. I did this treatment to 4 of the 6, and the 4 that had it done has larger buds and recovered from defoliation faster. TLDR; VPD is king. Super-cropping is worth the time. Keeping PH and EC dialed in were all wins. Autopots kick ass.

Week 10, Week 10 has been fun. The buds are becoming denser and starting to almost look like a finished product. I am planning on harvesting the plant the first week of next month, so three weeks or so and counting! I am adjusting the tie downs twice a week trying to get the buds as much sunlight as possible. I am watering every 3 days with 6.0 ph water. I have been putting a teaspoon of FloraNova in the water with a tablespoon of molasses mixed in but it appears she received a little nutrient burn. I'm not to worried about it because I wanted to make sure the flower sites received enough nutrients to make some dense dank buds. It isn't a huge burn but a little. As a result I started mixing only half a teaspoon of FloraNova in the water to make sure any future burn doesn't happen. I am excited about the plant, she is starting to look like a thiccy ha I am probably going to starting flushing in three weeks. Let me know if you have any questions/concerns/comments. Happy growing Growmies 🙌

Aug 24: starting the sixth week of flowering and this Blueberry Pie F1 Fast is amazing. The development of the flowers has been very fast and they are nice and big and thickening quickly. Thanks to Mrs.Larimar and I totally agree that these F1 hybrids are amazing. Did a watering round with potassium silicate, and likely the last one but we’ll see. Probably three weeks at most to go, so no more molasses and now mostly just pHed water to the finish line. Did a final light application of malted barley and Power Bloom and watered in. Removed fan leaves that were growing inward and shading buds. Aug 25: Flash pics are only okay when using a far red light after. Don’t take flash pics of plants unless you also have a red light. Having said that, I love taking flash pics of my plants. Aug 26: sunny again but not too hot and had the UV lights going. To spread the UV around I rotate the plant 90 degrees three times. This seems to be okay. This plant is the furthest along in flowering so I’m giving it most of the UV light and the slower ones can wait until they’re closer to harvest. Aug 27: she’s doing great. Up to 12 h of rain tonight with the potential for a pretty intense thunder or hail storm in middle of the night. All plants are in the garage tonight to ride it out. Aug 28: spent last night in the garage to stay out of the all night rain that was forecast. Turned out to just be light rain. Overcast all day and no UV light today. Aug 29: this plant is amazing, but I’ve said that before. The other day I noticed that some branches on the side are heavy enough that they are now slumping against the SCROG net. Fun to see that. The flowers are noticeably bigger each day and she still looks very happy. She is also becoming quite top heavy but the water bottle weights and five gallon pails of water hold it stable in the winds.

Amber is coming in nicely, top to bottom - starting 1 week flush! ~As one only can in *Hydroponics (& coco). It's not "bro science" it's biology 101. It does not boost thc, it does nothing to terpene production. Simply put - we are ensuring/pushing a fall fade, that in soil you may or may not get naturally as nutrients are always present, (I'm not seeing growers emulate late fall weather to do it that way... /shrug). Color change! With that you geeeeeet *the breakdown of chlorophyll, and a better taste as a result. Lots of purple popped up this week, two gals with foxtailing (one mother / one clone - but no herms thankfully - all nat-ur-al) First thought it would just be the mother / being too close to LEDs, but her clone did the same thing at 10'' Very excited for this harvest! ~~~~~~~~~~ Granddaddy Purple (Feminized Photoperiod) (Sponsored By) ~Zamnesia~ https://www.zamnesia.com/us/11056-zamnesia-seeds-granddaddy-purple.html Hybrid: Grandaddy Purple x Purple Kush (Purple Urkel x Big Bud*) 30% Sativa / 70% Indica Flowering Time: 63-70 Days 22% THC CBD 1% ~~~~~~~~~~ Zamnesia was kind enough to give us a discount code with this grow ~ go get you 20% off at checkout!!! 20% Off Code: ZAMMIGROW2024 https://www.zamnesia.com/us/ ~~~ In-depth information regarding my day-to-day / common practice may be found on the front page of my profile (in the comments). ~~~ Breeders - my services are available!

I had a really great time growing these girls. The question regarding smell went out the window when they were drying!!! I had move my carbon filter and fan out the tent and in the living room. The smell was leaking out the apartment!! I’ve only sampled one of the 5 sisters. Who look so different. But all have the same smell for the most part. Gonna cure them all for the minimum 2weeks and see what that does tobyhe smell and taste also potency. Back to sample test very smooth smoke it was a tiny bit greeny in flavor. And a heavy delayed effect. Like boom my eye are low and heavy. It was great!! 😂😂😂 THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR ALL THE COMMENTS, ANSWERS, AND LIKES! Can’t wait for Round 2!!! Gorillazkittles, gelato.og, GDPxGushers, GELATOxGushers. All from this time!!! Stay tuned! 😎00
