March 10 - 17, 2025 Lots of activity and growth in the tent this week. After resolving two run away events with the Blumat system and the carrots in Anastasia and Carol Anne that I think are finally resolved. Anastasia’s moisture curve is between 90 - 110 mbar. And the other two are also stable. They are going through about 1/4 of a gravity feed 5 gallon bucket mounted 5 ft above the soil and outside the tent for easy access. I am now mixing a bucket batch with 2.5 gallons of plain RO water ph leveled to 5.8 with an average temperature in the low 60 degrees. I am still using the 10 part - General Hydroponic nutrient line feed chart on week 4+ moderate feed and am mixing into two gallons on RO water with an average temperature of 60ish. Using the following nutrients in the exact order which is important to follow to avoid mixing issues. 2 gallons fresh Reverse Osmosis filtered water with a base zero EC level. Silica = 5ml Calmag = about 4ml General Hydroponics Flora Series 3 part nutrients: FloraMicro = about 11ml FloraGro = about 14ml FloraBloom = about 8ml Additives: - General Hydroponics FloraBlend = a out 10ml - General Hydroponics Floralicious Plus = 3ml - House & Garden HGDPC002 Drip Clean = 8ml Last step is to level ph to 5.8 My nutrient batch ends up at 5.8 ph with an EC level of 2.0 at about 60 degrees f. I then pour the 2 gallon nutrient mix into the 2.5 gallons of plain RO water to dilute the solution per sustainable village blumat system recommendations. The final batch usually requires a final ph spot check and minor adjustments. So far the planned schedule based on a current 4 day depletion rate will be to start with s fresh mixed batch as mentioned above. When the bucket level reaches 3/4 empty i replenish the bucket to 1/2 full using plain RO water ph leveled to 5.8. Then top off the bucket with another 2 gallons of nutrient rich mix as mentioned above. This increases the EC level to about 1.25. Then on the second reservoir depletion I will let the bucket drain to close to the empty level without letting it go dry. After the 2nd replenishment is almost gone i will do a 3 gallon hand watering with a mix of Real Growers Recharge - Mycorrhizae Instant Compost Tea/Soil Microbes mixed into each 1 gallon poured into each pot. This achieves 3 things, the first are the obvious benefits of better nutrient intake. It also allows for a good drain to waste to help flush salt buildups. Lastly it saturates the pot moisture levels down to the low 70-80mbar range and essentially temporarily deactivates the blumat system and prolongs the call for water and nutrients from the reservoir for an extra 12-24 hours until the pots dry out to the blumat carrots calibrated settings of about 110-120 mbar. I will have to adjust as I switch to flower but overall, now that the blumat system is dialed in and I understand it better I find tat it is very effective at keeping the tent environment more stable ad efficient. The plants seem happy as shit and maintain Ing a reservoir with a bi weekly hand watering flush is so much better than my old ways of mixing 2-3 gallon nutrient batches and hand watering/feeding and dry vacuuming it all up every two days is way better and less wastefull and more sustainable. So far It appears it was worth the investment and the test of my time and patience. The week was also full of a few defoliation snd lollipoping with plenty of scrog net low stress training to continue to fill out the canopy. Drizzella (right) is still stealing the show and dominating her presence in the tent with 30-40 potential cola points. Anastasia (left) is smaller than her sister but is responding well to all the LST and defoliation. DD he has significantly less potential cola points, but her fan leaves are larger but also softer or more silky feeling. Carol Anne (middle) continues to be a short stubborn and mesmerizing cultivar. She resembles a head of lettuce and is so strikingly different than her two cousins. I rounded out the week with continued VPD monitoring to maintain about 1 kpa with an average leaf temp offset of -3 degrees. I then pulled the Vivosun Aerolight 150SE led light from my smaller and currently dormant 3x3 tent and installed it in the 3x5 tent. Even though the AC infinity Ionboard is doing the job on its own. I added the second light for better light distribution across the tent as I was getting good DLi levels in the 30s in the middle of the tent but it tapered off to low 20s near the walls. After adding the second light I am now achieving PPFD rates of 500-600 and DLI levels in the low 30s from wall to wall and i think it will make a good impact on growth and a more efficient tent environment as The added circulation from the built in fan on the light, as well as increased heat generated from the lights is demanding less from the heaters.

The Bio tabs and off-course me😉 are keeping her happy and healthy. Starting from this moment, i'm gonna start with the Bio tabs PK 5-8 and compost thee to give her a little more flower power🌺💪 Rock on Growmies 🌱

easy trim✂️ The buds are Absolutely perfect,exactly what i was looking for🤩 Green pheno : cookie,diesel & gelato🍪⛽️🍦 Purple pheno : flower,sweet & honey🌸🍯 After 7 days on the dry rack she was ready for the jar to start the curing process.😋

I have removed almost all fan leaves , so i cut it down and hang it in my drying room for about 10 days before i trim it more and final weight , all small nugs will be used for bubble hash 👍💨

Starting to see some fade in the leaves now, it's getting closer to harvest. It's taken the willpower of a monk to resist chopping these ladies down. But I've seen enough videos to know that time rewards all who growth the holy plant 😂

On day 1 I did another light defoliation. The plants are progressing as expected. The only issue I'm dealing with is fungus gnats... ugh. I will keep applying BTI weekly until the population is under control. On day 3 the plants are putting out more pistils and seem to have stopped or slowed down their "stretch" phase. On day 4 I'm starting to see some trichomes forming on the sugar leaves, no smell that I can discern yet. I also changed out my reservoir and applied a BTI soil drench. On day 5 I adjusted the PH of my reservoir down to 6.1. I also purged my blumat system to make sure there are no clogs as my reservoir has fertilizer particles due to my water heater causing separation. I must keep the water heater on as I am growing in the northeast coming into the cold time of the year and can't have my reservoir freeze on me. On day 6 I adjusted the PH of my reservoir down to 6.1. On day 7 I adjusted PH in reservoir to 6.1.

Idk 🤷‍♂️ 🤷‍♂️ i've seen people with similar phenotypes, so I know it's not anything i've done.. Usually I am raving about Zamnesia Seeds but this grow was a real letdown. Especially because it's a contest grow, and I had put so much into it.. not very happy.The plant was ugly from the beginning.. deficiencies from the beginning.. and she's gotten the same treatment every plant I ever grow gets .. she produced a lot .. i just don't know how good it's going to be... Not a sugar leaf on the whole plant... No sweet smell .. i'm just glad this grow is over......... Okay, now that it's dried for a couple days. It's official, this grow was a complete waste of time.. I'm not gonna smoke one b off the entire plant. It's all going in the freezer for butter. It's absolutely trash.It's all larfie ruderalis 💩 .. no more autos

Still holding on, I'll try to use less fertilizers for the next couple of weeks. I think they should be done around Day 80. Very impressed with how different and pretty all three of them are. Deffinetly loving the lemon cherry cookies smell, it's really taking over the flat.

buds starting to swell and the colours coming through will add some over drive from advanced nutrients to really swell them up cruise control from here

Well I'm a bit upset last week I ended up dropping my ph meter in a tank of nutes I was mixing and by the time I got it out the meter was junk. I was planning on flushing the crystal but had to wait another week for the meter. I suppose the good thing to take from this was I found out why I was having issues with my plants. When the new ph meter came in I went to check my run off and my nutes that I had all ready mixed up. It turns out that my meter i had been using this whole grow was off by about -2-2.5 so this whole time I had been feeding the plants at around 3ph smfh. I cant believe they look how they do knowing what went on this whole time. Fastbuds crystal meth is 3days into flush and i will be cutting it down this weekend most likely. Mephisto hubbabubbasmelloscope is smelling like sweet sweet candy and is thick in resin Bighead seeds freeze berry/ blueberry crumble has a dank pungent stank to it and also is frosty but larrfy Big bomb is still growing thick and have bud sites everywhere Now I'm ready for the next batch and ready to get dialed in!

Nice and frosty Smells like grapes Don’t think it’s going to get purple

3/21: Just letting her do her thing for now contemplating on taking a few leaves off 3/22: I talked to the company yesterday that I purchased my light from in early February they said my Optic 4 XL LED will ship out this upcoming week......I’m definitely happy about that news I really need more light what I have right now since I had to take down my cheap Chinese blurple isn’t cutting it 3/24: Fed plain water and took off a few bottom leaves, in a few days I’m going to pry her open more then I’m gonna try not to fuck with her as much unless it’s necessary. Received email that my Optic 4XLs shipped finally

This is a super strain no hesitation go get this one you won't regret

week intel: everything is perfect! stresses : just a little E.C stress around 1.7 once a week feeding: i feed them 3 times this week with this order : day 1 : i feed them heavy with silicate +base nutrients(calcium & micros + Bloom) about 818 ppm - 1.7 e.c to cause a little stress. day 3 : i feed them low dose of Feeding Booster + Karbo Boost around 382 ppm - 0.7 e.c to let them recover a little but not fully recover still a little stress will caused. day 5 : i feed them with low dose of Top-Max + B-52 around 250 ppm - 0.5 e.c to let them recover the stresses to get ready for another stress next week. guide of the week : know your plant tolerance limit of E.C stress once you saw the very very little yellowing on tips of leaves , that's the sign to don't go further , never reach that limit if you want a high quality buds, in my case tolerance is 1.8 and i'll reach to that level only once a week to cause precision stress , love your plants and have a happy growing!

Would recommend!

Day 96, 15th of December 2020: Wao and wao... this is what I can say. A bit late I was on holiday I usually start the week with the first day but now with the last one. So let's start with the "black sheep" of this group as she is alone here RQS Wedding Gelato. Easy growing issue free little bushy lady. Absolutely great choice of grow. Pretty much ready for Christmas but she can be cut even now lol.... And now let's speak about the Original Sensible Seeds' girls... Well Black Ghost OG similarly to RQS Wedding Gelato is calm little bushy and issue free lady.... no problem all good ready for Christmas.... Runtz Gum the thick chick with heavy big buds and excellent appearance is really amazing. I placed a stick there and fixed her to look better... It was not necessarily but i have done it. She needs more time pretty much done ny Christmas or a bit after.... Gelato from Original Sensible Seeds is similar in terms of acting such as streching and all that ... The same situation applies not much to really say we wait ;) I am really happy to have these ladies.... Well, Do-Si-Dos OG is the craziest one ever... lol.... not only due her crazy kind of streching style but the trichome developement that comes along to the fan leaf "holder" stem is pretty crazy.... Those buds are like a diamonds sticky and she would be ready to harvest but need to wait because I need to go.... I really had to fix her by placing a stick there I broke one stem but fixed as it did not come off... so crazy especially now because of the weight of the buds... now she looks even more beautiful... I think she is the most challenging grow ever. Original Sensible Seeds genetics is unique really high quality just look at them. Royal Queen Seeds as well but this is my second grow from them my first was a Green Gelato which is the same calm littlw bushy plant. Amazing very good for newbies ;) I am going on holiday again and back on 28th of December so after harvest starts. Girls will be cut after. The 7th weeks starts with tomorrow 16th of December.... Only flushing and no more nutritient will be used. Soon full report comes. Lamp is the same 11 hours on and 13 off.... The last 4 days they will get 4 days darkness and only ventilation will be working no even more water ;)

Day 71👋🌱 I started flushing some days befor. I think I’ve got 20 days left but this lady eat a lot of feeding this last weeks so I give some more flushing. Buds looks full of all What they needs also if now they need to get fat and fat. :) let’s see what’s happen. Giving ph controlled water at 6.2/6.5, I check TDS to water owerflowing from pot, bringing it to 50ppm from 400. Now I’ll start checking trichomes every three days, I’d like a 60% white and 40% amber Day 72👋🌱🌱 Hi all growers, how is going? 😊 I'm at my first real flush for this Orange, i gave 10 lt of ph controled water and was checking ppm from water coming out. i gave water unitl it reach 400 ppm, my water is 200 ppm, i hope i'll bring it to 50 ppm for next flush in 3 days. i think bud are going to bloom nice this last days befgore harvest, i can feel it :D Day 74👋🌱🌱🌱🌱 Soil is already quiet dry, smell is increasing rapidly. Today I’ll give another e 1 lt of water and Sunday I’ll do another flush. I think will go up to 90 days. Bud will get fatter and fatter🏆. Maybe I could have fertilise two times more, but anyway I’d not a big problem, I’ve been feeding them a lot since the beginning so a more long flush won’t be a problem at all. Can’t wait to the harvest. Day 77 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 Just posting some trichome pictures, waiting to some changement before publishing some new pic of the lady. Keep washing it with ph controleed water that looks always cleaner, i think i'll be cutting the most high bud some days before the rest of the plant. Can't wait anymore Let’se go! ❤️🌱 Any suggestion is really welcome :)😋🌱🌱

Week 5

Flowering well with that potent smell this OG will be some fire🔥🔥4 weeks outdoor today from a 5 week indoor veg.
