This week I kept on feeding as usual. Due to a few burnt leaf tips I then flushed the three bigger plants with 5l each, and got a run off around 1l each with a PH of 6.9 I will only use 40% to 50% of the recommended nutrients the next week and PH my feeding water to around 6.2 - 6.3 to compensate the high PH of the run off. Mid week 2 I also lollipoped the plant again and did a rather heavy defoliation. From now on I only want to get rid of leafs if really necissary By now I can see more pistils forming and flowering is starting slowly.

This orange cookie is a shining example of dutchfem genetics , I do the same thing in the same conditions every time and dutchfem plants come out on top every time . Massive yields , chunky phatness, and solid handling all sort of conditions. I’ve had low temps of 8c and a heatwave of 40c and she’s handled everything thrown at her and continues to pile on the weight. A few weeks to go still and I’m happy as with what’s coming, she’s got this citrus tone and a cookie sweetness to her already. I clipped a few lower buds off for a preview in a few days ( not that you could notice, she’s huuge) . Keeping the feeds up and gearing up for a mad harvest.

I love this small fast pheno

In all honesty I'm not sure if I got the nutrients dialed in . I tested runoff and it was all within range of soiless mixes , calibrated my ph meter every watering as I thought maybe that's why I was getting yellowing leaves . They are still growing and budding rapidly and seemingly on par with what I've seen with others in like mediums so I'm trying not to worry too much . My carbon filter shit the bed already so my Mrs isnt happy with me today as my whole basement wreaks . The plants went from not too bad to wicked bad smelling within a couple days . I've been defoliating but do you think I should do more ?

Lots of leaves turning yellow on me the last couple of weeks

As always it's just a pleasure to grow this sativa dominant strain which definitely reminds me of a great indica with her extremely fruity and tropical sweet terpenes, very happy to have her in my garden and to be able to smoke such a high quality strain once again, hope you guys have enjoyed as much as me!

Finally, I found the time to finish the report. Thanks for joining me!

This plant is problematic. First of all, the Calcium deficiency is back whereas I feed her correctly and her siblings (GBK+OGK) don't suffer from this, so I assume she doesn't like the light as much as the other strains do, and she probably had too much light for the last weeks so I raised the plant-to-lamp distance, this should slow down her cal+mag consumption, let's see how this goes. Secondly, she stopped stretching, she will remain a short plant, and considering the number of colas on the manifold I built, things will become tricky. I'm already afraid of mold during late flowering, but I will keep a close eye on her and may remove some colas if she doesn't get enough air. Finally, she doesn't drink a lot. I'm a bit confused since I did proceeded to seedling selection and gave her good cares and much love. Wait and see, hopefully she will give some tasty frosty buds 😎 Thanks for stopping by!

Keeping her alive this week 🤣 Day 106 16/08/24 Friday Big feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Finally flipped her!! Day 107 17/08/24 Saturday Another watering today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only. Picture and video update ✌️ 💚 Day 109 19/08/24 MONDAY Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with Plagron products. Day 111 21/08/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated tap water today pH 6. Again 5L little run off.

I lost TWO of the clones but FOUR lived

Great week. Switch lighting to 12-12 for flowering. 2 plants showed male and was removed. Watering every 3-4 days now. Babies thirsty.

Start of week 8 of flower. Very smelly now. Will be chopping on day 63 of flower, 115 days total from sprout. Be back in a couple weeks after dry and trim for weight totals and nug photos.

Nice flowering lower first branches cut off..

Day 30 Feb. 18th- I feel like everything is going great -all plants are now in final 7 gallon containers..have used a lot of soil! -I have been tying the plants down as much as possible -March 2nd will be 42 days and I think that is when I will switch to 12/12 -Day 35 Feb. 24th- I need trellis netting soon I retie branches constantly for inner growth HULKBERRY and GREEN GELATO are growing similar...LSD and ROYAL GORILLA are growing similar! -Very interesting!! * I have color coated the plants like I should have a couple weeks ago -GREEN GELATO has all green pipe cleaners now...HULKBERRY has all yellow pipe cleaners. very long branches and small inner growth LSD is in all purple pipe cleaners. tying it down has done wonders! it has awesome inner growth! Now the ROYAL GORILLA in all orange pipe cleaners! This plant is a pain in the ass lol. The inner growth and spacing is insanely close!!! so many shoots all tightly together. I have tied down anything I can. Unsure how it will work in budding next week

Not much to show this week on the timelapse as we had a cold snap and power went out momentarily, and as such, the camera stopped recording, without me realizing this. So I have also added a little video of the rooms progress. Even with the small bit of footage, I can see that my feeding schedule twice a day seems to keep the leaves from drooping at any time in the video, so I will be keeping this going as is, checking the PH every couple of days and topping up the nutes bucket as needed. I am noticing some leaves dying, but they seem to be mostly ones that are not getting enough light and I am removing them as I go. The upper leaves and buds are looking strong so far, and just a touch of smell in the room. The colas are also starting to thicken and my fingers are getting sticky and stinky when working around them. Looking at the plants from a normal distance, they don't look very crystally, but the close up shots really are making them shine. After taking the pics, I like to zoom in on them and see all the crystals.

One more nice week. Defoliating and trimming by cat 🤣. About nutrients in comments, its my first time and plagron do fine i think, i have zero problems.
