Continued vegetative growth, preparing for topping, increased watering a bit more frequently to almost daily (just as needed.) Nothing crazy just maintaining conditions.

I pumped up the bloom nutrients a little. As it’s my last week before I go into the flower stage. My lights will go 12/ 12 shortly. I added a wooden support system because the plant was slanted a little bit. I also removed clones yesterday. And the plant is healing very very well and fast. Lots of new baby nodes growing! took out the strongest two plants to keep as mother plants. And I continued LST as the plant keeps growing steadily!

She's getting tall! I'm excited to watch the colors she hopefully picks up during her grow. That is the main reason I picked this strain for her purple genetics. I hope to make future colorful crosses using her and the purple Zkittlez phenotype I already have.

#1 is going weird, the resin production on this one is so low. I've already seen that on outdoor autoflowers and it gave bad quality cannabis.. Otherwise the resin production on #4 is high, but the buds are very thin. #2 & #3 look really good. 18/05 - Day 50 : 3L/plant (0,6g/L Flo, 0,3g/L Booster) 21/05 - Day 53 : 4L/plant (Clean water) 24/05 - Day 56 : 4L/plant (0,3g/L Flo, 0,2g/L Booster)

Tag 77 / Blüte Tag 17 Endlich ist das Fenster zu gebrauchen Die Pflanzen stehen hervorragend da. Der dreistellige Zentimeterbereich ist geknackt – 1-Meter-Marke erreicht! 🎉 Allen voran die White Gushers 33, die aktuell minimal die Nase vorn hat. Die Kush ist etwa einen Zentimeter kleiner, wirkt insgesamt etwas heller und noch nicht ganz so weit. Die Gushers zeigt sich dagegen schon deutlich weiter, was Reife und Lichtreaktion angeht. Der Stretch läuft spürbar aus. Genau so, wie er soll. Ein paar Zentimeter dürfen es von mir aus noch sein – aber bitte jetzt nicht mehr eskalieren 😅 Meine Wunschhöhe lag eigentlich bei 96 cm😉, die ist inzwischen überschritten, aber gut: Das Zelt lebt noch, ich auch. Ein Umknicken möchte ich nach Möglichkeit vermeiden, und aktuell sieht es so aus, als würde die Energie jetzt endlich in die Breite und Struktur gehen. Erste Anzeichen einer Stretch-Verlangsamung sind klar erkennbar. Blütentechnisch sind wir bei Tag 17. Die Pflanzen sind inzwischen deutlich mit Härchen (Pistillen) versehen, die Blütenansätze sind klar sichtbar – und genau deshalb warte ich mit dem großen Eingriff noch ein paar Tage. Der Friseurtermin ist aber fest eingeplant: Es wird Zeit, die Klingen zu schärfen ✂️ Die Entlaubung wird kein Spaß, da ist ordentlich Material dran. Ziel ist ganz klar: Luft, Licht, Fokus auf die Blüten. In der kommenden Woche steht dann auch wieder eine Mikroben-Gabe an. Ich bin sehr gespannt, wie sie darauf reagiert – idealerweise genau dann, wenn sie voll in der aktiven Blütenproduktion angekommen ist. Einen weiteren Wachstumsschub brauche ich jetzt definitiv nicht mehr. Jetzt darf sie liefern. Und dann dieser Moment: Das Fenster im Growzelt macht endlich Sinn. Man schaut rein – und sieht nicht mehr nur Grün und Stretch, sondern direkt davor echte Blütenbildung. Das ist diese Phase, auf die man Wochen lang hinarbeitet. Eine richtig schöne Zeit im Grow. Ich freue mich sehr auf die kommende Blütephase. Jetzt beginnt der Teil, für den man das alles macht 🌸✨ Finally, the window actually makes sense” The plants are looking excellent. We’ve crossed into the three-digit centimeter range — the one-meter mark is done! 🎉 Leading the way is White Gushers 33, which is currently just a bit ahead. The Kush is about one centimeter shorter, slightly lighter in color, and overall doesn’t seem quite as far along yet. The Gushers, on the other hand, already looks a bit more advanced, especially in how it’s responding to the light. The stretch is clearly slowing down now — exactly how it should. A few more centimeters would still be fine, but no more wild growth, please 😅 My target height was originally 96 cm, which we’ve now unfortunately exceeded. Still, everything is under control. I’d really prefer not to bend her over again, and right now it looks like the energy is finally shifting from vertical growth into width and structure. The first clear signs of reduced stretching are definitely there. In terms of flowering, we’re at Day 17 overall. The plants are now clearly covered in pistils, with visible bud sites forming — which is why I’ll wait a few more days before doing the major cut. That said, the hairdresser appointment is already scheduled: the blades need sharpening ✂️ There’s going to be a lot of defoliation. Plenty of material on these plants. The goal is clear: better airflow, better light penetration, and full focus on flower development. Sometime next week, the next microbial feeding is planned. I’m really curious to see how they respond — ideally right when they’re fully locked into active flower production, so they can really use that boost. Another growth push is the last thing I want at this stage. And then there’s this moment: The grow tent window finally makes sense. You look inside, and instead of just green stretch, you now see actual flower formation right in front of you. This is the phase you wait weeks for. A really beautiful part of the grow. I’m genuinely looking forward to the coming flowering phase. This is where it all comes together 🌸✨

Day 39 - Watered the Gold Leaf today by dunking it. 8.4 PH going in and 6.3 for the runoff. The PPM was only 500 or so, but I'm guessing it is because of the dunk. The soil test was still 5.3 on one side and up to 5.7 on the other. I checked right away so maybe it has gone up. GDP #1 seems to need water, but GDP #2 will need another day. The Gold Leaf is reaching the 25" limit for flipping, but the net should help show things down a little so the other 2 can catch up. Day 40 - Both GDPs needed water and got dunked. PH was 8.5 and the runoff showed 6.2. A soil PH check came back at 5.9. I am hoping that the small jump will help. I realized I would not be able to test the runoff with the stand and saucers I was using so i got new ones. This lowered my potential flipping height, but with the SCROG I am hoping to keep the goldleaf down long enough for the GDP to catch up. Day 41 - The Gold leaf is tall enough to bend down and the GDPs are almost there. I'm anxious to see how many bud sites I can get through the net before I defoliate and flip to flower. I don't think I should wait much longer with 3 plants in a 2x4 and the gold leaf getting close to 25 inches. Day 42 - 2x4 is too crowded so decided to order a 5x5 and move them over before I flip to flower. The gold Leaf is dry again. Watering with 3 gallons to try and get the PH up and the PPM down. The PH of the water I am using is 7.5 Day 43 - Watered Gold Leaf today. Going in the PH was 7.5 and the PPM 250. The runoff showed 5.9 and the PPM was 870. The soil test after work showed on one side as 6.1 and the other 6.0. Getting better, but I want to be closer to 6.5 before I flip them. The 5x5 tent will give me the room needed for that. Day 44 - Watered the GDPs today. The water going in had a PH of 7.5. The PPM was around 255. The runoff had a PH of 6.2 and a PPM of over 850. Both were very similar. At least one more week without nutes unless there is a problem. The ladies all seem to be showing a bit of magnesium deficiency. I started using a foliar spray for now with 1ml cal mag in 500ml of water with a PH of 6.5. Might need to add cal-mag to the next watering. The 2x4 is way too crowded with the 3 of them in there together. Hopefully the new tent shows up soon. Day 45 - The Gold Leaf is getting worse. It looks like lockout again. The other side of the spectrum this time. Probably too alkaline... 😒 From now on I will be feeding with water with a PH of 6.5. For now I added a few drops of micro and bloom to the foliar spray and applied it once more. It seems like it will need more water in a day or two so that should help.

Harvest Day

📆 Semana 4: Enraizada y Lista para Volar La FFA se ha adaptado perfectamente a su lugar definitivo y muestra una vitalidad creciente. 🌿 El sistema radicular ya bien establecido permite una absorción constante, lo que se refleja en un verdor intenso y un crecimiento uniforme. Los entrenudos se alargan ligeramente, señal de que la planta busca expandirse, pero sin perder su estructura compacta. Se introduce una base Grow de forma progresiva para acompañar este ritmo sin forzar. El radicular de XpertNutrients sigue activo como refuerzo biológico. El ambiente sigue estable, con buena ventilación y luz suficiente. No hay signos de estrés ni plagas: la planta está centrada en crecer, y se nota. Todo indica que la transición hacia la floración será fluida. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Jack Herer Auto is doing well. She is progressing into flowering nicely she is under a 100 watt SF-1000 in Athena blended line nutrition. I am curious to see how she does with the grow being in a cooler spot. Thank you Spider farmer, Athena, and ILGM. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

The BCM feminised has undergone her last major defoliation. She completely stopped growing as the leaves are continuing to fade and the stem is showing signs of decay. The bracts are swelling up also more pistols are turning a orange red, more try chromes developing as the BCM puts most of it’s energy into flower bud formation her weight has increased. She will receive water and molasses for the final two weeks.

Pues ya se van formando algunas flores llenas de pistilos!! Y vaya olores que desprende a sus 23 dias a 12/12 horas de luz. Le habierto un poco las ramas inferiores para que le entre mas luz!

Still just runnof, the rest is in the video, I'll be doing another when they are indoors and settled, still cleaning the tent from harvesting apple fritter.... I'll be updating the comment layout as well in the same style like the rest I have going.

today Day 22 and Hilde still goes well 🙏 Speedrun video 21 Days 😉 Day23 was cloudy an alot of rain 😩 Day24 was cloudy and alot of rain 😳 Day25 there was sun and not too hot 🙏 Day26 in the afternoon a really sunny day but it started cloudy and rainy oh lord 😯

It's been an interesting week. I had to ask for help with resolving the intense smell coming from my garden... I can smell it from my driveway at this point.. I was advised that I probably turned my fan up way too high, which overloads the carbon filter on the end of my exhaust. I ordered another new one.. turned it down.. and I also had to cut down the cheese auto... all her trichomes were cloudy bit I definatly could have left her for another week... just couldn't handle the smell lol. Ask for help and you shall receive, thanks Growdiaries. And thank you Oozlefinch for the solid advise.. ✌️ I bought a rosin press this week and it's awesome.. she will be used for this grow as soon as things are ready. I cut out my backyard to plan for round #3 for all these plants.. plus a whole lot more! Process/ Environment changes: -Turned down my exhaust fan.. the carbon filter can't keep up with the amount of air being pushed through it.. in the water industry we would call this 'short circuiting'.... The Gorilla cookies is growing well. It's a tall plant with long nugs ( I hope the full out a lot more). I would recommend supporting the branches at this point in the grow. There's a slight smell coming off her and trichome production was late to start compared to most the other plants I have... I suspect she will go past 90 days unfortunately, but I'm excited to see what the finished product looks like. Hitting her with compost teas at a pH of around 6.7 That's it.. I'm on auto pilot at this point.. there's not much I can do except sit back and wait. Thank you Fastbuds

Day 63 Harvested 70% of the plant, going to let the bottoms get some extra days to put on some weight. Really looking forward to her drying out and trying her in maybe a weeks time.

How's it growing guys, just a quick update on the Alien OG by The Cali Connection, end of Week 3 of Flower, I have uploaded a video for you guys so any questions just ask 👍🏾 Happy Growing 🌱💚

At this point I'm checking the plant for signs telling me it's time to harvest. I think I'm getting pretty close at this point. She is putting out a strong smell and has a sativa structure with tall and dense flowers. I fed a really heavy compost extract this week with calmag and Golden Tree. Process/ Environment changes: - turned off one Ts1000 yesterday when I cut down the blackberry auto - humidty set to 45-50 % RH I'm on auto pilot at this point and I'm looking forward towards the dry and cure phase. I have purchased 1 gallon glass jars to cure the flower in. I have also purchased 2 way humidity pack to help keep my cure on the right track. I will go in to detail about my process when the time has come to dry the flower.
