14.1.25:
I've been readjusting the LST. I just took all the pegs out and reshaped her.
I got some new LST equipment in the mail today, have been glad to have more pegs. I got some clips too, but they don't seem to stay on 😕
I'm currently only using the pegs, I have some thicker soft wire, but I forgot I don't have pliers to cut it!
Also I'm running very low on Biobizz nutrients, so that could be bad 🤞
18.1.25:
I have done another large defoliation on PPP1 and PPP2.
Also, moderate defoliation on all other plants today. All LST ties and pegs are readjusted.
I have turned up the light to 90%. Same distance of between 24-28 inches, depending on height of specific plant.
I have increased the dosage of Biobizz Bio-Grow and Fish Mix to give an extra boost of Nitrogen as several plants were showing yellowing. They have responded very well to this. Unfortunately I ran out of my Biobizz nutrients and PH UP. I'm currently using Bicarbonate of Soda to increase the PH after the nutes PH comes out to about 4.1. Obviously, that uses a lot and I only had a 250ml bottle, which I used last run too.
This run I have 9 plants. The only thing I'm worried about is the salt build up.
Have you used it before? Or any other natural way to increase PH? Please let me know!
I've also added Biobizz Fish Mix to help with the extra Nitrogen needed.
Watering with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 with the following nutrients;-
♡ 4ml Biobizz Fish Mix
♡ 4ml Biobizz Bio-Grow
♡ 2ml Biobizz Bloom
♡ 2ml Biobizz Top Max
♡ 2ml Cal-Mag
♡ 2ml Ecothrive Flourish.
I water with this every 3 days.
I did order some more Biobizz Bio-Grow and Bio Bloom.
I found some at a reasonable price on Amazon. I still have about 800 ml of Biobizz Fish Mix left, too.
It is fairly expensive this time as the plants are hungrier this run.
I also got a new bag of Canna coco, which I may use to add a top dress with some dry amendments.
Which hopefully will save some cash on the bottled nutrients and stretch out until the end of this run without having to buy anymore.
I have purchased a funnel to pour the water. It is difficult, due to the shape of my LST, to water precisely. I have spilt it all over the tent several times 🙄
I've also ordered a 2 litre jug. Currently, I'm mixing water for 9 plants individually in a 1 litre jug. It's tideous. Hopefully, this will solve the issues.
Cleaning the tent after watering every time isn't my idea of efficiency 😅
Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

Day 23
The third week of flowering is complete. Most of the height growth is finished. Time for a radical defoliation.
The girls look great.
Unfortunately, Kush has formed hermaphrodites on the flowers in the shade. I hope that I have removed them all.
The lamp will be raised to 100% output in two stages.

This girl has exploded this week new buds whizzing off in all directions ,
She has just started too go cloudy but no amber as of yet , so I would say I started too flush way too early as she has now been having nothing more than water for the last two weeks but it doesn't seem too have stopped her in anyway but who knows she may have produced more bud ?
But I am very happy with what she has and you would be happy for this result from a photoperiod plant , she has developed what looks like corn shooting out of every bud in all directions , looks mad
I've just read it's called foxtailing and it's genetic on purple strains not light or heat stress ,
Looks amazing
Update ,
Really starting too show the early flush now week 3 of nothing but clean water , she is now in full swing of eating her leaves all cloudy and about 4% amber , so it seems another week for this girl and I clearly started to flush a week early , but doesn't seem too have slowed her down

Another good week. Watered them twice. I'm not planning on feeding them again. A little defoliation. I definitely think they are in the last 2 weeks before harvest.
Still seeing some nutrient burn developing on the leaves. I don't think I watered enough through the whole grow! I'd love to hear opinions on this!
Took some videos of the buds with an iPhone 12 at 6X magnification. Decent quality!
Otherwise, still looking to successfully harvest these plants! Thinking about the next grow. Probably going to be Auto Strawberry Cheesecake and Auto Anesthesia.
Peace!

Vegetation Phase - Week 2
Shoutout to Cannapot, the Austrian plug who came through with the genetics from Humboldt Seed Company. The 10 Donutz plants are pushing through their second week of veg, and while the majority are thriving, a few challenges are starting to show — all part of the game when experimenting with new soil, pots, and nutrients.
Updates & Adjustments:
Lamp Adjustment: Raised the light to reduce stress and give the plants more breathing room as they stretch and develop.
Watering: Keeping it relaxed and minimal with reverse osmosis (RO) water. No overwatering here — slow and steady wins the race.
Nutrients: If deficiency will further ill add more fertilizer.
Observations:
9/10 plants are growing steadily, with vibrant green leaves and visible progress in height and structure.
1 runt: One plant is struggling hard — stunted growth, ugly leaves, and generally looking like it’s fighting for its life. Still, it’s got a spot in the tent, and we’ll see if it can bounce back.
Some minor issues spotted on a few plants, likely nutrient deficiencies as they adjust to the new setup. It’s not surprising, given the new gear and methods, but nothing alarming yet.
Next Steps:
Staying the course with low-stress management. Let the plants adjust to their environment and dial in any issues over time. The Donutz are strong genetics, so they’ll likely power through. Even the sickly one gets a chance — no plant left behind! This sea is still on track to make waves.

I finally came back from vacation, and I already visited it:) it doesn't look bad, a few higher branches look like the leaves are on fire, a lot of leaves were cut off yesterday so that the plant would devote more energy to the flowers:) I think the flowers will burst and expand within a week:)

She is on a 12 /12 light cycle as she is in a tent with some photo period sisters that are in flower at the minute. So she won't have such as good a harvest if she was on a 18/6 light cycle.

12.5.25:
I watered with some more Trace again. She's feeding well and needs watering more often again.
I upped the dose of Trace as I've noticed that there are some purple hues coming back on the stems.
13.5.25:
I have removed all fabric ties on the plant. I think we have stopped stretching, so the sooner, the better.
I keep getting my watering can caught in them all, and it was only a matter of time before I ended up snapping more branches off 😅 The fewer things in my way, the better 🤫
15.5.25:
I watered today as the pot had dried out almost.
The plant was watered with dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with the following nutrients per 6.5 litres;
♡ 7ml Trace by Ecothrive
♡ 1/2 Tsp Sea K(elp) by Greenleaf nutrients
The plants received the amounts below.
HULKBERRY: 1l
FASTBUDS: 2l
NORTHERN LIGHTS: 3.5l
I am not giving any further nitrogen at this stage. They had a couple of doses in the past week or so. I'm sure they don't need any more.
So, I'm just using the kelp as it's packed full of goodness and high in potassium.
I also suspect an excess of phosphorus. So I'm also leaving that out for the time being.
There are still some red stems on the plants. added the Ecothrive trace for the last few waterings. I'm hoping it will resolve without any further intervention.
16.5.25:
I watered Northern Lights with 3ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with:
♡ 1/2 Tsp Sea K(elp) by Greenleaf nutrients
♡ 7ml Trace by Ecothrive
Measurements per 6.5ltrs.
PPM: 670
PH: 6.4
17.5.25:
I watered again today with 2ltrs of the above PH'D to 6.2.
Parameters remaining the same.
The plant is increasingly thirsty, so the waterings have again needed to be increased.
As we're reaching deep into flowering, this is par for the course.
I'm mostly using coco, perlite worm castings. Etc. So it's very easy for my pots to dry out. I need to keep on top of it.
As the pots dry out, the microbes are lost, and so keeping everything moist and healthy is imperative.
That's why I add Ecothrive Biosys regularly to ensure I keep up with the microbial life in the soil biology. To avoid PH lockout.
18.5.25:
I watered again, with the same parameters as yesterday.
Instead of Sea K,
I used Ecothrive Biosys:
1/2 Tsp/6.5l
PPM: 550
PH: 6.4

Day 31, 20th of October 2021:
Hi everyone!
Welcome to week 5 !
Spliff ladies are 😎
Let's see so My favourite ones from this group is CBD Medi Kush and Afghani Gold.... Amazing ones haha!
Obviously, I ain't got no problem with Blue Berry and Strawberry neither....
LST has been performed on all fo them nicely spread the branches as I could.....
CBD Medi Kush is bombastic strong and healthy no any problem very resilient lady....
Blue Berry is still fighting with some nitrogen or magnesium deficiency but nothing serious problem there....
Spliffs Strawberry 🍓 started growing and grew a lot proper Sativa lady....
And... Afghai Gold she did the most growth. Very nice strong real Indica little chubby bitch hahaha.
Fertilization remains the same with the same bat guano, epsom salt and Biobizz family - BioGrow, BioBloom, TopMax... 2x a week epsom just once.
Ratio is above... ;)
Lamp is on 150W so approx 60% of the max and it is fine just placed the fan kit in so the temp is lower approx 25 degrees and constantly fresh air goes in and the humidity is lower as well around 50%...
Every 2 hours ventilation is on as well for 2 minutes just to make a better air circulation.
They receive approx 100 ml water a day/plant...
