Overall, everything seems to be going very well at the moment. The plants are growing faster than ever and the space on the sides is getting cramped. We still have plenty of space for them to stretch, but the upcoming week will probably be the last one in veg before we'll switch to 12/12. The roots of the plants already reached the bottom of their fabric pots. Topping: We decided to top the three largest plants (2x PCK, 1x Gelato). This was only done because we wanted the smaller gelato (top left) to catch up a little. I'm curious how that will work out. If all the plants had been the same size, we probably wouldn't have done it, because the space at the sides is already tight. Lamp distance: As the plants grew, we forgot to adjust the lamp distance until the distance was slightly below 30 cm. The upper leafs are currently looking a little stressed as a result, but it is not too bad. Right now the distance to the lamp is 50cm. Fungus Gnats: We added some sf-nematodes to the soil to get rid of fungus gnats. It is unclear where the gnats came from and it could be completely unrelated to the grow. However, we gave the nematodes to all plants so it does not become a bigger problem.

7/11 Got half in of rain last night. Glad I didn't water. Ph of rain water is very acidic. Added supports to the blueberry cheese in the 50. I just used string and went diagonal and attached to the cage. Wrote a ton but it disappeared. Anyway looking at previous diaries I was wrong about senescence. It wad the life cycle of those earwigs that did that to my plants (see other diaries). This soil mix is amazing. These plants gave only gotten like two small feeds of big bloom. I showed my commercial buddy and I'll keep it between us what was said but it made me feel really good. I'm considering either expanding the cage in one direction with some lumber I already have or moving a couple outside tge cage. That way I have more room. He said he's seen plants structurally similar reach huge heights (14f) so I'm just trying to avoid future problems. I at least need to get the trellis on. I hope poor that's food enough. Did a real nice video this morning but nothing wanted to upload and it just uploaded the same one twice. I'll try again and hopfully it will go up. If not I'll put it up tomorrow. 7/12 Dad has surgery this morning. I did a quick video and took some pictures. I need to do some rearranging with the plants and cut a pallet to fit in the back. Then I can put a vertical trellis up. Haven't decided if I'll add on to the cage, remove a couple plants or just rearrange things but I'm leaning towards the later. They will need water again and I'm wondering if I should start nutrients but everything looks so good. By this time on past diaries I'd be losing all my leaves bu now. MI think it wad part ear wigs and part to many nutes. This soil mix is taking these plants through veg. I'll probably do a feeding soon but it will be organic and it will he small like a big bloom or ancient amber. Im leaning towards not using growbig this year as my plants seem to be doing great without it. We'll see. I'll keep this updated. UPDATE: Went back over and gave plants a full watering. Some were slightly drooping. I was going to add nutes but decided against it as I didn't see any deficiency. So far NO Earwigs! I comed through the plants and I did find a jpn beetle which I happily killed. I mixed up 8 gallons of water and gave it to the 11 plants so it wasn't quite a gallon a plant. I need to rearrange the plants so I have room to move around. I also need to cut another pallet and use the spaces I'm not. Trellis needs to go up. 7/13 I think I've got the watering amount down. Now just to find how often which will depend on weather. I've watered very little this year. They loved that gallon. I was going to use big bloom and kelp me/you but looking at my garden I decided not too. My buddy asked what i was addingvthings for and to wait fir what i added to do what I wanted it to do. I see no nutrient deficiencies so why add anything? I think this soil mixture will get me all tgexway through veg. I dont plan on using much in fliwer either. Definitely good genetics. I really need to cut that palley and move the 1 10gallon to the far back coener. It will open thibgs up so much better. The garden looked so beautiful this morning. Getting very aromatic. I started untangling trellis netting but had to leave. I'll update what I do. Happy growing folks UPDATE: Went back over as I had a slight intuition that I needed to check the garden. I found and killed at least 7 jpn beetles. That's what's been making holes. They tried to escape and bounced off a tarp but I got it. I went through the interiors and found two pillars. If these beetles are gonna be around I'm ordering a net. I'm also close to positive I'm going to extend my cage in the back a few feet. Things are getting unmanageable in here. My buddy said I'll be having problems soon if I don't do something. I'll document what I decide to do. 7/14 Found ONE jpn beetle in the garden this morning. I can manage those well enough. The birds help too. I check my garden multiple times a day so I manually remove many pests. However I've noticed some thrip damage on a leaf and a leafhopper damage on "A" leaf so there are "some" pests around but not enough to spray shit. A couple wasps were doing there job while I was there. Supposed to get thunder storms after three and tonight. Supposed to get over a half inch of rain tonight. I lifted the bags and decided to hold off and let mother nature take care of it as the bags weren't totally dry. Only problem I really have is space. I AM moving that 10gallon (that's the same size as some 20's) in the back. There's 27in not being used and a few feet the other way. My buddy cautioned me that I'm going to have problems since my plants are so crowded. I agree with him. I spoke with me father and we have most materials to extend my cage four feet in the back. I think that's my plan. I'll extend the structure before the stretch then I can put up the supports. We'll see how this goes. UPDATE: Went back over to check the girls as I had a feeling I ought to. When I got there I saw that a couple of the blueberry cheese were pretty light (liftng the smart pot) but the others seemed to be fine. ONE 10th planet was light like that and the purple punch in the 10 gallon was as well. Each plant thar needed it got at least a half gallon of water. I'm waiting to see if we get the thunderstorms and the half inch of rain. I watered the MASSIVE blueberry cheese in the 50 but I only gave it 1 pitcher which is like 1/4 gallon or so. Don't know why I even gave it that. Looked fine but the soil WAS pretty dry. Next year I'm giving myself way more room. I was running trying to chase these jpn beetles. This time I have the dawn and water and a measuring cup to knock them in. This ain't my first rodeo. I did notice some bright yellow streaks on a leaf edge and I'm hoping it's not septoria. I doubt it but I have an anxiety disorder and I worry. I hope I can get the cage extended sooner rather than later. It's getting hard to move in there and more importantly I can't take any more plant pathogen problems. I'm considering starting a plant doctor regimen just to be safe. 7/15 Got a bunch of rain last night. No jpn beetles in the garden and not really much damage. I did notice this (I think it's leaf hoppers) that leave those dots close together on a leaf so it appears I've got a variety of pests. I'm considering how to approach this. I mean the damage is very minimal but I don't want it to get out of hand. Another thing I need to look out for is leaf septoria or any other fungal pathogens. I believe that has been part of my problems in the past. I think that's what caused my earlier grows to drop all their leaves so quick. I think I'm being overly cautious but its very crowded in there. With my father just getting out of surgery the girls will need to wait a little bit before before I can extend the cage. I could still cut the pallet and move the 1 10gallon and that would give more room. I rearranged a LITTLE BIT so they have a little more room but I've really got to get this cage extended. UPDATE: IT Rained so hard I had to pull the car over. We hydroplanned the whole way home. After working ob my house I went to see what the damage would be like. NOT A SINGLE BREAK THAT I COULD SEE. I took a video but since the wifi here sucks I'll have to upload it tomorrow. Walking around in the cage even if I cant get it extended I think I'll be OK. It obviously will open me up to lots more issues but at the very least I can reorganize before I build on. The 10 gal purple punch would fit perfectly in the back and I have a pallet I can cut to fit it in place. Putting that one back and pulling the others forward will be much better than what I've got going on now. I'm also thinking about running an extension cord and putting fans under the canopy or at an angle to keep the wind moving. Just thinking outloud. However after that storm the girls looked as happy as I've ever seen them. All happy praying to the sun, thankful for the much needed rain. Mother nature does a pretty good job with out me messing with it. I've noticed a couple interior lowest leaves turn yellow and die like a nitrogen deficiency but everything else is fine. Also noticed a leaf that looked like a p deficiency but again, it was the VERY bottom leaf on ONE plant. Again the rest of everything looks fantastic. I'll keep an eye out for anymore nutrient deficiencies and if anyone that reads this sees some please let me know. I should've taken stills since they looked so good but I got it on video. 7/16 It POURED last night and throughout the day. TORRENTIAL rain. The branch breaking sheet rain that us outdoor growers learned to fear. My plants aren't trellised currently. I know what I need to do now. I have a pallet to put in the back corner and I'm moving the purple punch in the 10 there. And pulling others forward where there's more room. Then when I extend it (it's gotta be done this week) everything g will be in their proper place and I can just throw on a vertical trellis. I also noticed more (leafhopper) damage on a leaf. Different leaf of the same plant so I'm considering spraying something. I have a number of products but I was trying not to use them. Luckily I have these diaries so I can look back and see certain plants reactions to certain nutes or fungacide/insecticide/nutes and the doses used. I haven't been using much but if my plants will remain cramped I'm going to start the plant doctor. I'm seeing more pillar damage too but BT is super narrow so I'm thinking when I fo spray for pests I might use cap jack and be done with it. Then I can apply the BT in flower if it's necessary. I took a video but I have to wait until tomorrow to upload. I took a quick snapshot though. 7/17 Despite the torrential rain I don't have any breaks. I'm noticing more pest damage though. Another leaf on the same plant had those closely shaped round circles. I forget what pest it is but it's there. Caterpillars are there I'm sure so I may do a preclcentative spray. Just unsure what I'm going to use. I lost a COUPLE very bottom interior leaves that look like they just got used up. After this rain I think think the plants might benefit from a feeding. Probably next water after they dry out. I REALLY need that cage extended. I expressed that today and it should be done this week. I'm looking for pallets today. I have the little one that I can put in the back which will allow me to move the 10 gallon and move the other forward. That will help some but I need more room. I'll update as I go. UPDATE: GOT A SMALL PALLET AND IT FIT PERFECT IN THE BACK ROW. I MOVED THE PURPLE PUNCH IN THE 10 GALLON ONTO IT. I SHIFTED A BUNCHVIF THINGS AROUND. I ROTATED ON BLUEBERRY CHEESE 180 DEGREES SO IT WOULD FIR BETTER. CROP ROTATION IS GOOD ANYWAY. I TOOK VIDEOS AND YOU CAN NOW SEE THE ROWS MUCH BETTER. 2 WITH 3 and 1 WITH 4. IT'S SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER THAN IT WAS. I CAN GET AROUND ALL SIDES OF EVERY PLANT NOW. GRANTED THE LARGE 50 IN THE BACK IS GOING TO HAVE SOME TROUBLE BUT ILL JUST STAKE IT TO THE CAGE. IT WILL GROW TOWARDS THE SUN ANYWAY. IM SUPRISED I DIDN'T LOSE A BUNCH OF LEAVES AFTER THIS RAIN. MOVING THINGS AROUND AND LOOKING ON THE INTERIOR OF PLANTS I FOUND A COUPLE LEAVES THAT HAD BEEN USED UP. I REMOVED A COUPKE LEAVES THAT HAD DONE THEIR JOB. I'LL UPDATE AS I GO ALONG.

I started losing healthy leaves on the lower end of the canopy, so I am giving grow again in case it is a nitrogen Def. I suspect it may be because the canopy is so thick and the lower leaves arent getting light. But just in case, FloraGrow is back at 1.25 ml gal. Current feeding FloraMicro 4ml gal FloraGrow 1.25ml gal FloraBloom 8ml gal SM-90 2.5ml gal Cannazym 2.5ml Gal Ful-Potential 2.5ml gal Liquid Koolbloom 2ml gal Floralicious Plus 1ml gal ArmorSI 1.5ml gal Florablend 2.5ml gal CaliMagic 3.75ml gal (1 plant started showing def again) FloraNectar 2.5ml gal Drip Clean 0.4ml gal 8/21/17 famed bagseed sellers, ILGM aka i love growing marijauna forums has banned me twice for no reason. the first time it was funny. the second, well, i looked into them and that is when i realized they were selling bagseed, if one got their order at all i never ordered from them, so i didnt know, but there is a reason grow diaries doesnt recognize these so called "breeders" dont even think of mentioning anything or any other website outside of theirs. i linked my mulchworlds.com blog in thier entry for blogs and they banned me. what a scam site. i joined it thinking, wow, what a nice place, no controversies... until i realized they actually moulded conversqtion to only praise their bagseed, or you get banned and your posts get pruned, meaning, no one ever knows what has been said in this "public" forum that they have. they are an absolute joke. please do your research if you are even entertaining buying swag bagseed from them. there is a reason that this site and others, like leafly, dont acknowledge this scam of an operation i started with grow diaries, and am happy with grow diaries. i got seduced by the scam sites censorship i hope you guys dont complete scam. they only allow posts from shills/stupid people/naive/trusting people. only people who are in on it, dont understand, or are too generous of human spirit to believe that people would ever scam them are allowed to post there without getting scrubbed bad juju EDIT: wow, i just realized they banned the guy that i told to check my profile for my blog link for looking at my blog link they had a field in their profile for blogs! sorry budbuddy, you were collateral damage in the war of the bagseed, i guess. the entire thing was stupid. or ridiculous. i am really not sure which. all i know is that they are unsafe. corrupt scam bagseed sellers not only that, but they dont even use basic SSL security on their site. how many people are they putting at risk for arrest for their cheap, careless, sloppy website? 8/22/17 On a lark, I just tested my water retrieved from my dehumidifier. ph = 5.33 and ppm around 13 i may start adding this as a feed water. fantastic properties! 8/24/17 I think, my next crop, which will be photos... well, i planned on 8. Now I am thinking 6 may be too much. This is ridiculous, they keep growing. 4 have been teetering on the cusp of flowering for a few weeks, and now they are getting even bigger. They already stretched, now they are just inching They told me autos stayed small! 130cm!

Week 6 flowering for the purple banana punch from fastbuds 420! At the moment the buds are getting bigger and getting more and more thc, i dont think that a lot of time is left so we gave some extra food this werk and we will stop soon feeding to start with the flush and give only water the last week. This week we gave amino, sugar shot, sticky fingers, bloom booster, enzymes, silica and some more master roots

Growth exploded once I dialed in the water intake of the girls. - Darkside cookies is a monster sprouted quick and has taken off growing to 4” in week two since potting. There are some yellow blemishes not really even spots I think my lights were to low (raised them so will update on progress next week.) She should be ready to top in 2- 4 day thinking about manifolding her as well she seems strong and resilient! - Nebula punch my little shorty at 2”. Her nodes are so tight they’re almost touching (blessings later on in flowering; although moisture control will be paramount on her!) She’s symmetrical with a deep green luster. - Blue Bourbon Smash is at 2.2” and seems to be the quaint even keeled middle child. She doesn’t seem to mind the watering conditions as much as the other two did as I understand watered for about 3-4 days and she was still progressing while the others looked noticeably lacking in something needed. I will top/manifold Darkside cookies and maybe Blue Bourbon Smash! Also a trellis is in the pipeline for helping maximize that structure on Nebula! * If anyone has any thoughts on the yellow blems on Darkside I would appreciate it want to catch it early if it’s not light burn *

Mixed up 1 ml each of medusas magic, Gaia mania, and Zeus juice into a 1 quart spray bottle adjusted to 6.3 ph. When this gets another set or 2 of true leaves I'll take away the fluorescent and install my new hlg-65 led panel. I'm excited to see what the "special phenotype" really means. Photos are day 13 since it popped out of the soil. Also fed some tribus microbes I got as a freebie :).

Unfortunately the phone I had documenting this grow has been lost for a few months. And, these pics are burning a hole. Here's Lemon Paya/Mandarin 1 pheno each started in 2L hydro pots which were left for a long time. But, before they were flipped. I added them to 20L hydro of the same substrate. They took heavy abuse as I had to break roots for them to start growing out (Hopefully I can backfil the both phenos progress soon) but, as I've a lot of projects. I need to start finishing ones just done. Early on I topped as Here's weeks 12-17 of a 9+ weeks or so flowering period here. Left ripening for a week and then harvest coming onto nearly 9-10 weeks of flowering, (Note harvest has been done) They were to grow in a hydro substrate. Their resistance was really strong and went a few days without feed. I made sure the substrate never dried up too much. But, could of tended more and gotten greater results. All nutrients above when mixed (base Nutrients lower the ph to 6) so rarely I adjusted the feeds (mainly water or calmag feeds). Silica feeds were the only feeds that needed strong PH-. no + ph buffer was used As for feeds I kept the core npk feeds around 4-450 every 2-3 days and followed up the next day with water or Enzyme feeds, etc. Thanks to fastbuds for sending me the prize. Amazing smells omg Both are very different but also similar. One has a much more sweet aroma & one very gasey. Omg they're stinking the whole house.

Removed small suckers from bottoms and skirted plants near the base. I also did some defoliating in order to increase potential air flow to bud sites and reduce moisture trapping. The dew has been showing on the plants in the morning and rain has been spotting here and there. I have been trying to keep my eye out for bud rot so I can remove it before it spreads however so far so good. I noticed two of the Blue MOB plants do not seem to be doing as well, and also noticed those two plants have roots growing through the 5 gallon bags. The harvest excitement is really kicking in, it smells better and better every day!

FastBuds White Widow auto 4th week of flowering completed 11th jan 2020 Well this plant is still the smelliest of all the testers Ive been growing it Reeks!! but in a good way 😝 Nothing else to report all my girls seem to be very content in their environment at the moment and are getting closer to the end every day . I'm supposed to be going away on leave next mont for 2-3 weeks and I'm hoping all of my flowering plants will be ready by then 😏

Haven’t done much.just,adding more watering
