Some light defoliation and leaf tucking. Installed the Tray2Grow today and I’m excited. It’s looking great. The silica gave it a really beefy center stem. I dig it. I love this plant so much.

Filling out the trellis net. Looks like another 2-3 weeks until I flip the ladies. Using SST’s, LABS and natural inputs for this grow. I have made some mistakes in the past using Organics, but have figured out HOW to use them for an entire grow. The vegetative state, I have never had a problem with. The transition into the first 3 weeks is when I have had the most issues. After a little research and testing, I finally have a basic blue print of how to feed plants in flower for 10-12 weeks now or shorter. Mark Bowell from Perfect Gardens on YouTube and Mr Canucks Grow from Canada are my largest information inputs. Final Thank you to Mr McGooz for keeping me in the know. 10-11: yes, some of the stalks are turning purple. This is not due to phosphorus, magnesium, or any deficiency. It is due to the light being too intense for the plants. I am at the max distance and running the light at 30% ( it’s a 600 watt 🤣🤣). Soooo yeah, that purple is going to stay for a bit. Purple with other leaf discoloration or senescence IS a problem, purple stems with NO leaf issues isn’t serious issue. Cant it be fixed? We are going to find out….Photosynthesis Plus will be on hand in the next 5-6 days. This permits the plant to USE more of the photons ( yes, I have carbon in my media). This should minimize the purple and allow me to UP THE WATTS 🗣️🗣️ 10-14: spoke to my “guide” and we made the decision to go ahead and flower these ladies. We saw how much stretch there is to be had and realized we are currently filling the trellis by 75%. We are estimating the entire 4x4 area to be completely filled. I defoliated and pruned the smaller sites off the lower areas of the plant. Not quite lollipopping, just selectivity choosing sites to keep and bones that will get in the way. For transition I am using a ratio of 1:1:1 on NPK’s to ease the flip. The ppm’s will be between 750-800. Once we reach early flower, we switch the NPK’s to 1:3:2 ( flower girl by Dr Earth OR Fish bone meal and langbenite). I switch each feeding between the two for 5-6 weeks. At week 7 we switch to 0:3:3 ( seabird guano and Langbeinite) at 500 ppm’s. Week 8 the same feed. Week 9 kelpseaweed/water Only ( these are 10 week cultivars). Thank you for taking the time to read. 10-16 😍😍😍 Plants are starting to show deficiencies!!! Yes, normally one freaks out 😂😂😂 The slight deficiency is a sign that I can go ahead and start: The Flowering Cycle. When using Organics, you have to use your eyes because nothing is specific. Meaning: you have to see when the amendments are running out to A: Top Dress B. Make compost teas. We are going the compost tea route for flower. I made a video showing exactly what I use. The ratio is 5-5-5 ( yes earlier we were going to use 2-2-2, but we found out there is no calcium or magnesium in the all purpose mix by Dr Earth…another reason to learn to read your plants).

Week 4 nutrients and she's responding extremely well. Will continue this dose one more feeding then increase Bloom. I wish I had more space but it is what it is ;) Good news my replacement light arrived and it's installed. :D So satisfying to see the white pistils appearing.

9/29/21 - We are marking today the first day of veg. That Mars Hydro TSW 2000 is doing a great job at 50% power. The plants all look great today! 9/30/21 - They look good. We are giving them water with no nutrients for this week so they will transplant nicely. 10/1/21 - They look great! I’ve been misting them in the morning. Soil is still wet from the transplant watering. We are waiting on fans and a scrog net. 10/2/21 - They are looking very good today. We mist them daily, sometimes twice a day. 10/3/21 - All plants look great! We stopped misting them for now. They look over watered a tad. We know it’s early but we started LST on a couple of the taller ones. 10/4/21 - Looking good! Just cruising along at 50% power, watering when dry. I know they won’t be low maintenance in a couple weeks when they are bushes. 10/5/21 - They look great! The ladies in the back are doing some LST still since they are much taller. It’s safe to say the roots are expanding and the plants overall are growing.

Alaskan Purple Auto is growing great under the Medic Grow Mini Sun-2. She has some big sativa colas going. She is just about done with bulking. She has a flowery earthy smell to her at the moment. I have had minor issues along the way, but overall she has been killing it. Thank you Seedsman, and Medic Grow. 🤜🏻🤛🏻💪🏻❄️🌱 https://www.seedsman.com/?a_aid=Mrsour420.

I put them to germinate on 03/09, and on 05/09 they were already in the pots. They don't have a defined breed, the weed was good, let's try. I'll use 5 seeds, but 10 of 11 germinated. 12/12 from seed 2 on organic pots 3 on inert pots

Runtz Automatic - Zamnesia Day 56 - Watered with 2L of RO tap water with defined nutrients, pH'd to 6.3 - for reference, I usually water when the moisture content of the soil reaches around 8-10%, then I water until either I see a good amount of runoff, or the moisture content reaches around 30%, then I let it settle to around 25%. This week, she has mainly been focusing on bulking her flower, so other than removing a couple of fan leaves to allow light to reach bud sites, I haven't done much with her; really, other than a small amount of training and defoliation, as well as a little bit of lollipoping on the lower stems, its pretty much all I've had to do with her - she has been really easy to grow!! Looking at her today, I would say shes about 10-15 days away from harvest, max! Notes: - she has entered the last couple week of her lifecycle, so I've moved her into the center of the tent, to give her the best light concentration. - she was showing signs of Calcium deficiency, so I've upped her CalMag from 0.5 to 1 ml/L - her internodal spacing is amazing, I can see each individual bud site grow, which has been really cool. - from a structural perspective, shes the best looking plant I've ever grown! If she smokes well, I will grow this strain again. - I will begin flushing her from the end of this week, to prepare her for harvest.

The start of the week and no problems. I'm thinking to do 1 more transplanting when she have 6nodes and after she recover from that im going for mainline for cola's. Day 26 and transplanting the Girls in to there final 35l pot. Day 27 the girls looking very healthy and already have 6nodes, so I topped the girls by the 3node and removed all grow below the 3node( step 1 mainline)

6’-4” & 5’-8” as of today, 6’-0” average height. These ladies are beautiful! Everyone who comes by the house just stops and stares when they get near my garden. So do I 👍🤣 I had to move some plants outdoors from my indoor grow due to losing the battle to high heat and humidity. Two are super close to harvest, one might get cut over the weekend. Feel free to comment and let me know what you would do. Thanks!

Feb 22nd Plants are doing well but they seam to have stunted They are growing lots of branches but not growing in length Also I have been having difficulty keeping my PH balanced out Feb 25th I have taken all of the tie downs off because these plants are stunted I have decided to do a flush of the system, and put in fresh nutes. I will also flush each plant with a few gallons of pure PH’d water I will put the new nute strengths on next week’s update As for now I am going to feed just PH’d water @ 6.0 Feb 28th Plants have responded well to flushing New growth showing so I have resumed LST

June 21st - they are doing great with the newa ac unit. temps are saying around 25-26. They are just growing away. I decided this week I would swap there nutrients for transition to flower. I watered them today with the first mix of the recommended transition to flower. June 22nd - Still growing away, they seem to be picking up growth quite a bit now! June 23rd - Starting to explode with growth! Everything looks healthy. I have turned the lights up to about 85% now. Gave them a feeding today, again with the transition to flower recommendation. June 24th - Still growing like crazy. They are on a 12/12 schedule and it looks like they're on there way to flower! Junes 25th - Lots of growth in the last 5 days. They have perked up a ton, grown a ton of fan leafs and its almost time to do some more lst or defoliation. Gave them another feeding today. I have decided to just feed with every watering as it is the manufactures recommendation. June 26th - Took the girls out and did some LST on them again as they were starting to become pretty uneven. Unfortunately I only took pictures/videos of the one plant. You can definitely see the growth since the start of this week. They seem to be getting pretty dry by the morning so I have been feeding roughly every 24-36 hours making sure not to overwater. June 27th -They popped back up overnight and are just growing away. Another watering today. Roughly 3L per plant. Again making sure not to overwater.
