Week 5 has jumped at me from outa no where :) All the girls are growing well , I can’t wait to try these Mexican Airlines they are growing nice and problem free so far , We are at the stage I like the best when I get to see the bud sites start to swell and fatten themselves up with sticky tric’s and resin

The Apple Betty babies have gone through a lot this week 😬After a couple of days of LST, I let them recover for a few days. Once they were looking perky again, I decided to top all three. Day 31 - topped the girls after some deliberation. I had been undecided, ultimately figured that it was best for my situation, whether or not I decide to use my DIY scrog screen. For those unsure of when to top, 5 nodes or true leaf sets seems to work for me. Find the shoot at the very top, make sure it’s got some small shoots on either side started, and snip! It’s that easy. Topping will disrupt the hormones being distributed through the plant instead of the top, and force your plants energy and growth to the lower branches. Not to mention you will now have two main tops growing instead of one 😎 Give the plants some time to recover before doing anything major again, and you should he able to see your plants get bushier instead of taller. Once they were topped I bent and worked all the stems and branches between my fingers making sure to get all of them. As you can tell from the main stalk, the twisting and bending works, she thicc already! I also put their wire ties back on and bent all three over as far as I could get them to go comfortably before feeling like they would snap. This was a lot of stress for these girls, but they have shown they have a great stress response, and recover quickly. Can’t wait till the weekend, my big tent will be cleaned and ready to go for these girls, they are growing so fast! Happy Gardening đŸ‡šđŸ‡Šâ€ïžđŸŒ±đŸ˜ŽđŸ’š

Week 2 of flower is in the books and all 3 girls are looking extremely healthy. Perfect time to start packing on the weight. There are tons if bud sites that will get tons of light due to all the defoliation I've done. I've never defiliated plants this much before and I'm curious to see the difference in bud production below the canopy level. I love trying new things and experimenting with these plants. Always coming up with new ideas on how to do things and making things easier along the way. Can't wait to see how much I'll get off all 3 and see the difference in phenotypes.

It was finally time to harvest her, what good times we had with her. Amazed with how beautiful this plant is, how easy to manage and train and how rewarding Orange Hill Special is. So we said our thanks and goodbye, thanked her for all the joy she gave while growing her. I realize more and more how I love growing them even more than the end-product. It takes my mind of all going on for a while, in my miniature jungle world in the attic. Im sure all of you just sometimes sit there and watch them, in wonder, dreaming away with a good buzz on, watching them wave in the wind of the fans. So with a heavy hart I apologize, play them their last music, sit with them and feel them and smell them, watch the glistening of the cristals. In the end we had 209 gram dried Orange Hill Special, I will know the total of the grow, in a few days, since the final big whopper still has to dry: my XtraKush, be sure to check the harvest of that one *in couple of days) and see a one-dollar seed outperform two 10 dollar seeds. I probably go over 500 grams for the total grow, which would be 1.6 grams per watt. Big success! Consider an SP-3000 for your next light, you won't be disappointed! Check www.mars-hydro.com for the latest discounts! Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting us try out your light, it made this successful grow possible! Greetings and all the best! Thank you to our friends here, our followers and the whole Growing Diaries community for just being there. Big Hug, Sunshine and BioBuds

Day 15: Plants looking healthy as can be! I didn't make a rack for the lights but I got em in. Looks jankie, but I think its gonna work. 🙏 Day 16: Trying to work out kinks in my grow. Since I put the other 2 lights in, I'm now battling the heat and humidity. Switch the fans around. Got the cold air coming in down low. Will feed them in the morning. Day 17: The girls were showing signs of being thirsty this morning for sure! They received their first drain to waste watering. They will be getting some additional nutes on the next feeding (AN B-52, AN Sensizyme, AN CalMag Extra). Day 18: Looking amazing today! I tried my hand at a little LST. Wish the girls luck.!! 🙏 Tomorrow is the official 2 week mark from breaking ground. So, not sure. I've got the humidity finally dialed in at around 50-55% and the temp around 78°. Also gave them another drink as they were already dry about 1.5" down?? Day 19: This is the official 2 week mark. I think I stressed the girls pretty good yesterday, but they look to be recovered today. Should start seeing good growth in the day to follow. Will just be tucking a leaf here and there for a bit. I will being doing a straight water feed next with Great White. Day 20: Nothing new to report other than found 2 leaves that had some yellow mottling. I added Sensizyme, Recharge, and Great White to this feeding. Did not do drain to waste. Just watered the outside perimeter. PPM was 260 at 5.8 ph. Day 21: NO MORE NUTES for these girls! Tips on a couple of em are turning yellow!!! Stupid me. Over watering and giving too many nutes.

Hello friends hope all is well. Can’t say i can’t complain this tree is doing well. So far am waiting for to stretch some more. The buds are forming well. I’ll be giving her a organic compost low in N and big in P-K. So far my organic grown has been the best way to go. It more fun, and the learning experience is great to use with other gardens and plants.

Week has had ups and downs🙃 Plants seem to be growing fine 🙂 But there is yellowing and spotting still that I cannot resolve.🙄 Day 22- Still having some kind of deficiency/issue. They are growing well, don't really seem to be stunted. I think I may have burnt them with nutes.đŸ€§ Flushing may help. đŸ€·â€â™‚ïžđŸ˜… Run-off pH is at 6.08, PPM 266 I have flushed them, lowered feeding... I'm driving myself crazy. Hahaha Update 119 Day 23- Things are looking better. I definitely have been overfeeding them.😅 They are responding well to half nutes.🙌 Issues seem to be getting much better. Happy Growing! đŸ€™đŸ’šđŸ’ȘđŸŒ±đŸ˜ŽđŸŒ±đŸ’ȘđŸ’šđŸ€™

420 Fastbuds Week 7 Gorilla Cookies Auto Hello everyone. I hope all is well. Weekly update for these two beautiful ladies. They're definitely advancing nicely with flower sites getting bigger daily it seems. No big issues that I can see besides the fading in the leaves which this far into flower is expected. All in all Happy Growing.

In den letzten Tagen zeigten die Jealousy-Pflanzen deutliche Aufhellungen und rostige Flecken an Ă€lteren BlĂ€ttern. ZunĂ€chst wurde von einem pH-Problem bzw. Phosphormangel ausgegangen, da die Symptome untypisch und punktuell stĂ€rker wurden. Nach genauer Analyse von DĂŒngeschema, EC, pH und dem zeitlichen Verlauf stellte sich jedoch heraus, dass es sich um einen ausgeprĂ€gten Calcium/Magnesium-Mangel handelte, verstĂ€rkt durch eine Unterversorgung in der BlĂŒte. Ursache war, dass ich mich ab BlĂŒtewoche 5 vertan habe und ĂŒber rund zwei Wochen nur ca. 1 ml Bloom (plus ZusĂ€tze) gegeben habe, obwohl 3 ml laut Schema nötig gewesen wĂ€ren. Dadurch entstand ein schleichender Mangel, der erst verzögert sichtbar wurde und fĂ€lschlich wie ein pH- oder Phosphorproblem wirkte. Der pH-Wert lag im Nachhinein betrachtet korrekt im Bereich um 6,2–6,3, der EC war ebenfalls nicht kritisch – die Pflanzen hatten schlicht zu wenig verfĂŒgbare NĂ€hrstoffe, insbesondere Ca/Mg. Nach gezielter CalMag-Gabe (ca. 0,3–0,6 ml je nach Pflanze) zeigte sich innerhalb von 24–48 Stunden eine klare Reaktion: neues Wachstum wurde wieder grĂŒner, das Fortschreiten der Symptome stoppte. Bereits geschĂ€digte BlĂ€tter rosten weiter, was als normal einzustufen ist, da diese SchĂ€den irreversibel sind. Aktuell befinden sich die Pflanzen im Endstadium der BlĂŒte. Die Trichome sind ĂŒberwiegend milchig, kaum amber, was auf eine verbleibende Reifezeit von etwa 5–7 Tagen hindeutet. Keine weiteren Korrekturen geplant, Fokus liegt nun auf StabilitĂ€t bis zur Ernte.
