October 10th she started her 9th week and got her last nutrition. i will harvest her next week or even this weekend.

Installed my new suplimental lights. 440 en 660 nm.

Things still going great. I had a bit of light burn(upturned leaf edges) so I backed off an inch or two. Other than that no major changes.

Transferred the seedlings into the pots. 4 are in the cloth pots over a gallon reservoir and two homemade set ups made of 2 nesting 5 gallon buckets with a yogurt container inside under the second nested bucket to keep the buckets from scutioning together. I melted holes (couldn't find my drill, kids😕) in the bottom, 4 for drainage and 4 for the wicks to cross on the inside of the bucket the dirt and dangle into the reservoir below, 3 holes on the side about an inch above the bottom for drainage too. I then took 1/2 yard irrigation tube and cut it with an 45 degree angle at the end that sits in the reservoir and snake it through the bottom of the nested bucket and up the inside of the bucket as close to the side as possible and filled with dirt. I use a funnel to fill and there is an overfill hole on the outside bucket approx. the height of the yougurt container. I filled the reservoir with clean water for a week with no plants to get the soil moist and the they were about half empty when I transplanted the seedlings and and topped the water off with the nutrient water. They all seem really happy, not sure how i am gonna fit 6 plants in my tiny tent but will keep them under the lights as long as I can. I have a beautiful window in my office they may have to finish off there, but the smell, lol, oh well it will smell.

First off I just want to say for some reason it’s not letting me change the right temperatures on my diaries ! Each time when I put it in they stay at 50. My day air stays 75 degrees an , night degrees is 70 ! Today is day 58 for all these ladies! This week has been really great ! Girls really progressed a lot , especially for one the Forbiddin Runtz, looks like is gonna finish up in a week or 2 ! Other then that they are coming along well! Keep those eyes peeled for next week! Cheers😶‍🌫️💨💨💨💨

Hallo liebe Growfreunde, Diese Woche verläuft sehr angenehm, keine Mängel oder sonstige Beschwerden 😁. Die automatische Bewässerung wurde angeschaltet nachdem ich erstmal von oben gegossen habe. 1l Wasser pro Pflanze mit dem Enhancer von Greenhouse. Werde dass alle 2 Wochen so machen aber sonst gibt's nur PH korrigiertes Wasser. Dünger wurde ja der Erde untergemischt. Ach ja, CalMag kommt immer mit ins Wasser bei mir. Wie man gut sehen kann entwickeln sie sich toll soweit. Die Peyote Critical ist um einiges langsamer im Wachstum als die anderen, aber sie sieht sehr gesund aus. Die Gorilla Zkittlez entwickelt sich auch gut, aber liegt eben fast 10 Tage hinterher. Aber was solls, dann bleibt sie eben etwas kleiner wie die anderen😅. Ich denke am Sonntag nächste Woche geht's für alle in die Blütephase. Naja, mal schauen... mach am Sonntag nochmal ein Update.😉 Bis dahin euch allen einen guten Zeit. Ciaoiiiii

brilliant week of growth from the peanut butter cookies. Been a little bit of a struggle for space but will HST once all autoflowers are out. Both the auto cinderella jack and auto critical cheese are developing buds nicely

Ending the fifth week of flower, we are humming right along. Needless to say, weeks 1 to 4 of flower is where the hard work comes into play (pre and post flower top dressings, PPFD light adjustment, defoliation, structure netting, etc.). Now, it's just a matter of ensuring good health until harvest. Towards end of this week five, you can see the canopy of buds gaining in density and weight. I'll continue to gauge whether or not a second netting is needed. The super soil medium was top dressed at the end of week four, so that's it in terms of feeding. The final tea will take place at end of week six. Thereafter, ph'd water until harvest. The estimated harvest window is January 28 (day 56) to February 11 (70 days). Aside from the physical beauty of these girls, the smell is getting stronger by the day. Installing new carbon filter today. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my journal, it is very much appreciated. I'll provide an update same day same time next week. 😎

Last week was very challenging, two girls got really tall below the white light, while the other two below the blurple spectrum ended up being smaller and bushier, both looking fantastic. Last week I also probably went too far defoliating the shaded smaller girl which stunned it a bit for a day or two but its flowering vigorously again. Although the unexpected stretch which led to uneven light coverage overally the platns are looking solid, smelly and sugary :)

We start the first week before sprouted! We are excited to look the grow on RDWC!!

Day 28 for the Cali snow and she is doing well. Looks like she might be hitting preflower but not sure yet. Got her spread out a little so some more of those branches have a chance to make it to the top. The system is performing great and all the girls look pretty happy.

Flushing week nearly harvest. Feeding only a bit of cal-mag. A bit of defoliation.🍃

The plants recovered well, and the buds are swelling 💪🌳 I changed my pH pen and switched to AC Infinity 👌 The trichomes on both SM&Q2 are already nicely milky with quite a few amber ones, so I think today was their last watering. I’ll harvest them in 2–3 days!

Alright, bad news ladies and gents, I got the bud rot. It’s been humid as hell here and I think the buds were way to dense and not drying. I noticed it by inspecting the buds. As bud rot rots from the inside out, I noticed a few “out of place” leaves on the buds that were brown. From my experience with late season bud rot last year I knew right away. I peeled open the bud and sure enough rot. I looked around a bit more and found it in a few more places, I decided right away to take the large buds, and leave some on the plant to mature. The big green behind the garage, I also found some on one bud, I cut and tossed it. The purple one has no rot yet, I think because of the spacing between the bud sites, it’s not dense. Anyway here is a partial harvest, and some bud rot pics. I’m letting them finish, I’ll just keep an eye on them. Pray for dry weather for me. Cheers.

Day 29: LST is done. I set the lamp approx 36 cm away. BlackBerry Kush, LSD-25 started flowering. All of them are OK started growing rapidly. 600W LED, 20 hours on 4 hours off the same with ventilation. Water intake: 75 ml per plant plus triggering, humidity around 60 percent. Fertilization is on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with BioBizz family, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday bat guano and Epsom salt. Day 30: I did LST again. I didn't have enough elastic band yesterday so I bought today and bent them better. I also set the lamp closer approx 34 cm. Day 31: I did LST yesterday and bent them. They already "lifted up" their heads toward the lamp. As they grow I will keep bending the main stalk and the side ones. I will try to create a spiral form and spread the plants with time. Day 32: Most of them started flowering except Colorado Cookies. BlackBerry Kush aggressively started floweing. This plant is very strong and aggressive. Day 35: pre flowers nicely coming along.... Balckbeery Kush and LSD-25 are the quickest. I changed the lamp as it is now really good.... so I placed an other 600W lamp there. I will swap these lamps one week here other week there. I will change that lamp after harvest. End of the week the tallest is BlackBerry Kush with approx 25 cm (I bent them so can't give perfect measurement) and the shortest plant is approx 18 cm.
