Vegetation Phase - Week 4 The Donutz ladies are cruising through Week 4 in style, with no major changes to their routine. Simplicity is the key: just consistent care, reverse osmosis water, and keeping the vibes steady in the tent. Growth is strong and steady, with no signs of stress or issues. Updates & Maintenance: Watering: Still exclusively using RO water. No overwatering, just light and consistent hydration as needed. Lollipopping: The plants got a little cleanup this week. Lower growth was trimmed back again, keeping the stems neat and focusing energy on the upper canopy. This helps maintain that signature Sea of Green look and primes the plants for fat main colas later. Observations: The plants are uniform, healthy, and stacking nicely. Each one is starting to show its individual character, but they’re all working toward that tight SOG canopy. Marienkäfer buddy is still around, keeping the ecosystem in balance. No pest issues, no drama. Next Steps: It’s all about staying steady and letting the Donutz do their thing. The lollipopping ensures the plants are focused on upward growth, and the stable environment in the tent is creating the perfect conditions for success. Week 5 is around the corner, and everything’s looking set for these plants to keep stacking up!

After the new branches have grown three nodes, I topped at the 3rd node to start the four branch split that will eventually allow me to top once more.

Por ahora solamente corté una de las 3. De todos modos, el tamaño de las flores para ser plantas tan pequeñas me asombró. Espero repetir esta variedad en los 7 espacios. Ahora estoy en búsqueda de un nuevo desafío. Hoy seguramente corte algunas de las Tropicana.

As hot weather is on the way next week, I have not choice but to harvest. With multiple humid days in the 30s forecast I know its either harvest now or contend with grow tent temps close to 40c. Definitely not going to help the terps anyhow. Honestly I think she needs another few days, but super close either way. Trichs are predominantly milky white with just a tiny amount of amber. Managed to get a 5 day flush, not ideal but best I could do before the heat comes. Will manicure really well to speed up the dry time, hoping for a 4 day dry to avoid the hot weather. 🔥

Buds are really fattening up. Now comes the difficult part, deciding when to start the flush and then when to harvest. With likely warming days, quite likely an early harvest is on the cards so I can avoid curing in a hot tin shed. Closely monitoring the extended forecast to hopefully harvest at the perfect time as all will be wasted if curing in a 30c tent. At the moment due to a changing forecast its possible I will only achieve a 5 day flush, and have 3 days to cure in mild temps. Unfortunately from then it looks.like things seriously heat up, if extended curing is required then likely I'll bring in side the house in mason jars during the heat of the day then cure further on the drying rack in my tin shed till during the cooler evenings until ready. No. I know this isn't ideal but I've done this previously and always ended up with good.buds just way more effort that's for sure. This being a secret grow has additional challenges that's for sure. My wife, and 2 teenage kids have no idea what goes on in this shed as to their knowledge only garden tools are stored here, if anyone in my house did gardening apart from me then this grow would be impossible that's for sure

Hey Growfam! Week 10 is over and there's not much going on since the flush on day 60. They got some more plain water with ph6.3 but not much. Afghan Skunk 1 Harvested on day 63 and is hanging to dry in one piece. Waiting for the other Afghan Skunk to mature before posting the harvest pictures of both. Afghan Skunk 2 This lady really is in no hurry to finish! Trichomes are half clear half cloudy... She faded a lot during the last week and is also getting those reddish/violet hues, like AS1. Somango Glue 1 More than ready for the chop. All trychomes are cloudy with some amber. Will take her down tomorrow or so. Somango Glue 2 Also pretty much ready for harvest, although not as mature as I like. Trichomes are mostly cloudy with just a few turning amber. These 3 remaining girls all have to go down soon. Maybe I'll harvest both Somango Glue tomorrow and leave the other Afghan Skunk standing in the dark for a day or two before taking her down as well. That way I can use the tent for drying whilst giving the other plant a little more time to mature. Probably this won't make much difference lol 😅 But I definitely need the tent to dry - Afghan Skunk 1 has been stinking up my place proper!! Thanks for looking! Happy growing! Deelicious

I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Have fun with the update. Flowering day 33 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey everyone 😃. Another wonderful week goes by :-). The lady is developing very well. The flowers begin to develop properly and already smell very nice 🙂. The day before yesterday was the last time 1 g of GHSC Powder Feeding per L substrate was added :-). That should last to the end now. Of course, she continues to receive GHSC enhancers 👍 every 14 days. The tent was cleaned every day just like the humidifier was refilled every day. I am very curious how it will develop in the coming week and until then I wish you a lot of fun with the new update.

Watermelon is the plant that blossomed first but has probably suffered from time. Now it is late compared to the others ... but ok!

📆 Semana 7 La Mental Rainbow sigue avanzando firme en floración, con cogollos más densos y cubiertos de tricomas brillantes. Los pistilos continúan desplegando colores vivos, mientras el aroma dulce y terroso se intensifica. La estructura sigue sólida y bien aireada, favoreciendo el engorde máximo. 🌿 La genética promete resina y aromas intensos. Al final del día vi algo de brotitis en la punta central. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Commencing Week 9 - 1st week of flowering - Day 57 from germination - Day 6 of 12/12 on December 19th All is well. Much has happened. Clones and bonsai training. 818 already has pungent, awesome scent. GZ are still beasts. RD & BH have fantastic natural shape. D.61t/10f RDs Sativa growth is showing off now and stretching out as expected. looking beautiful. what she lacks in Veg State growth is definitely made up during bloom. hoping she fills in the holes of the canopy

Switched to 18 hours light schedule now and she seems to be loving it so far. The lemon balms are keeping the soil nice and moist.

Everything is the same, since moving everything to one tent, the NL auto started flowering a bit more. The Vanilla Frosting started stretching, and the White Widow is finally pre-flowering a little. The VF gets dry every day, and weather has been wild again but I have managed to keep everything healthy. The addition of OG Biowar has really seemed to put the critters out of work (https://ogbiowar.com/). Granted I have also used Boogie Brew Black, and it takes me friggin 20-30 mins to get everything mixed and ready, but the plants are not complaining. I make a compost tea in a five gallon bucket and bubble for about 24 hours with a serious air pump and huge air stones, then I add all my nutes to it. I would say this is a 95% organic grow. Check out the video and check out the meds I made from the leaves of these plants. Packed a mason jar with clean leaves and poured in regular isopropyl alcohol - a few days later and its so green you cant see through it. I learned about this from a friend from South of the border. It seems to work well on muscle aches. -shrug- at least for me. FIVE MORE WEEKS For those who wonder how much light/heat I am putting down, its like 1807.8 umol/s at dead center over the Cree light, the Spider Farmer puts down way less, but the two lights together are working well and fuck it, its 82 degrees in the tent during the day and they are all pretty happy. So it is what it is. If it gets super hot I keep the CREE part of the Phlizon on, and turn of the LEDs, the SF1000 has plenty of light to help.
