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 🍃 ✌️

Successful Germination 😎
So far so good, all 5 seedlings are looking healthy, could have let them stretch abit more but.... I don't mind their size at the moment 👍🏾
Really excited about this grow because I know what to expect already and it is AMAZING! 😁🔥😎

🗓️ 7° WEEK FLO // DAY 43-49 (from switch) // DAY 120-126 (from dry seed)
⚡- Light: 30 cm / 250 watt;
⌛- Schedule: 12/12;
🌡️- 22° C - 65% RH average;
📑- PH 6 - EC 2.3;
🌱- During this week the difference between the two phenotypes became even more evident, despite the environmental and nutritional conditions being the same. Pheno #1 is continuing to swell its buds and it's starting to slowly fade. Pheno #2, on the other hand, is getting darker and darker and its buds are not as big as the other one;
🌸- According to the trichomes stage they still need 2 weeks.
🆕- On week 15 I got the TrolMaster TCS-1 by @TrolMaster_Europe and I started to track my grow box data. I will add these info once I harvest!

Grape Ape Cake !
Lineage;
Hotcakes
(Katsu Bubba Kush X Burnt Toast (from Raw Genetics)
X
Grape Ape
An Exciting New Collab from Katsu Bluebird !
Week 11, & the End of 4 weeks of flowering (30 Days of 12/12)
Welcome back to our regular scheduled programming....
Like I mentioned we are officially 30 days into our 12/12 lighting cycle.
Now taking into consideration that this is one of the first runs of this particular strain the flower period is partially undetermined, I will be guessing based on Lineage of the parents, & following her closely towards the end to ensure my desired trichome ripeness.
Katsu's HotCake's run's Approximately 8-9 Weeks
&
The Grape Ape run's slightly quicker at 7-8 Weeks
You can certainly tell the difference between all 5 plants, I'm very glad I took cuts of everything ! as plants 2 & 3 are certainly the keepers of the bunch..
plant 2 showing some very cool fall colours already (emerson effect hitting strong asf) She is already starting to purple up & smells Very Sweet. My guess is this pheno leans more to the Grape Ape side.
As far as plant 3 is concerned I can smell heavy Kush aromas emulating off her already, & based on her flowering structure I believe this pheno leans more Katsu Bubba. but we'll have to wait and see.
A Minor amount of leaf plucking this week should be noted.. It will probably be the last time I mess with them, its time to start swelling up.
It is my opinion that most of the stretch has been completed & i'm now looking at the final colas minus the couple weeks of filling out of course.
As this is the end of four weeks of flower(12/12) Their food will be increased during the next feeding, thus far i've been impressed with the ease of this strain.. I wasn't sure what to expect to be honest but I will say this I was weary of over-feeding but all of them seem to enjoy heavy feedings.
Thanks for Reading 🙌
If you have a question or a comment leave it down below otherwise,
I Hope You Check in Next Week,
Stay Safe out there & Happy Gardening

Not much to be done, watering this week at 6.0 just to ensure there is no nutrient lockout, feeling a little as though these two have been slow in the past week. Buds progressing but feel like it should be quicker at this point. Fourth week of flower

Day 43. Girls still on water, but they are getting bigger, need more water, so installed trays, gave them a lift from ground and hopefully this weekend heavy LST and defoliation session with light BioBizz FishMix feed .
All girls are nice, two a bit smaller, but they should catch up. Made small shuffle , sometimes it looks to me, that one light is overperforming others in veg.
Day 45. Heavy training, loads of lst and defoliation, pure phed water.
Think to give them 2 more weeks before flip, will clear up in a week all small shoots and bottoms.
Happy Growing !

Day 50: Wow these girls are loving their repot. I moved them up to their final 50L pots now so no more disturbing those roots. They were starting to circle just as I re-potted so I think i hit it perfectly . They have been so easy to work with so far and took to their training so well. I am going to begin tying down for their final setting now I have the growth tips and choices of where they go. I am going to strip out a little leaf too and also make sure I take out any potential popcorn larf.
FFT1 is certainly the smaller of the group but her squat nature gives her a nice thick stem to hold weight. No issues with her at all.
FFT5 sits in the middle for her growth size. She is also looking very healthy and her Mega crop start has given her a beautiful colour on her leaves. She looks sativa in her structure for node distance so I think a stern tie down will be needed to keep her in check.
FFT7 is by far the biggest of the group and also has the most actual growth within her. The many heads will need some serious thought as to who goes on to be a champion and who becomes the mulch sacrifice. She has some big fans developing and will need some space to bloom I reckon. Well done on these Fast buds.
Until next week Growmies.

Hi Growmies. I hope you will all have a blessed Christmas with family and friends around you sharing love and good food.
What a great week this has been. It seems they started the cycle so slowly at the beginning of the week and within a few days it had exploded with flowers a across all the plants. From base to tip on each branch of all the ladies they have sprung up with a bang. I was concerned as to how much longer they could go without flowering too.
#1 Is leading the pack for production in general, closely followed by #3 but for Flower size and growth, then it has to be #2. She is a lot smaller than her sisters in girth and limbs but is not lacking in the cola dept at all.
The plagron bloom products and planned effects are very evident now and i am looking forward to seeing how it helps with yield and quality now.
As i have now reached 4 weeks flowering, it is time to add the product I have been most excited about trying , Green Sensation. I have known about thisnpriduct a long time but never had the opportunity to add it to my arsenal. It looks and smells great to me so I expect the girls will savour its goodness.
Thanks for stopping by. Be lucky amd until next time , stay well.

Couldn’t be happier with how the growing going right now except for the heating issues which has caused the temperatures to rise tremendously next week I will be putting in my efforts to dial down temperature and humidity and hopefully make it so the AC doesn’t run 24 seven

Día 59 (29/07) Este cultivo no es muy entretenido con solo agua, asi que...
Le hago supercropping a todas! 😁 A ver como reaccionan!
Día 60 (30/07) Las plantas se están recuperando muy bien del supercropping! 😁
Todos las puntas hacia arriba! 💥
Come onnnnnnn! A por esa floración en 2-3 semanas!
Riego 500 ml H2O pH 6,75
Día 61 (31/07) Las plantas se han recuperado genial del supercropping y están lanzando TODAS las ramas hacia arriba 😍
Un espectaculo la fuerza de estas plantas! 💥
Redistribuyo las plantas, para ver si OnionOG está más protegida del sol, ya que consume muchisima agua y voy a estar en unos días fuera...
También reubico ligeramente la malla de sombreado, debido a que en mi latitud el sol empieza a incidir lateralmente por las tardes...
Riego 500 ml H2O pH 6,55
Día 62 (01/08) Vuelvo a redistribuir las plantas en el invernadero dejando a OnionOG todavía más protegida del sol directo, para tratar de disminuir su consumo de agua estos días que no voy a estar...
Pongo una protección "visual" en el invernadero en el lado que da a los vecinos (cara norte), porque he "cazado" miradas indiscretas...
Riego 500 ml H2O pH 6,55
Día 63 (02/08) Debido a que me voy de vacaciones unos días, adelanto el riego semanal con Té y la aplicación foliar de Kelp
Riego con 1 Litro de Té Vegetativo de Lurpe Solutions. Preparación: 24 horas con bomba de aire (oxigenación) con ingredientes:
Green Sunrise 8 ml/L + Insect Frass 16 ml/L + Hummus Lombriz 8 ml/L + Melaza 1 ml/L + Kelp Hidrolizado 0,25 g/L

Looks like this will be her final week! She won't last long. Maybe 10.5 weeks of flowering in all. Smelling nice. And finally starting to get that beautiful lavender/chocolate color of her father (although, a little too late).
