The little ones are developing well, unfortunately there are a few minor nutrient problems in the direction of Calmag with the Morello Cherries and also slight signs of this with the TerpyZ Punch. I counteracted this with a foliar spray. The pH value of the hydrosystem has unfortunately dropped a little to 5.5, which I have equalised with ph up from Plagron. The plants are currently getting light between 800-900 ppfd and as soon as the stretch starts, l'll increase this to 1000 ppfd. Both ladies are slowly starting to smell.

Week 2 bloom: The buds have started to arrive! And they are everywhere. This girl is huge and looking great. She seems to have liked the feeding I gave her last week. Iโ€™ve continued to train her, but at the point that the buds have started, I donโ€™t want to be touching it very much. Maybe itโ€™s OK because the trichomes havenโ€™t started? I just want to control herโ€ฆ Iโ€™m concerned about height. Currently sheโ€™s half the height of the tent and is only 1 week into bloom.

Overview of my grow: Tent: Secret Jardin DS120 4 x 4 (120 cm by 120 cm) Lights: 2 x 120 Watt CTlite c4 clusterled Climat: Trotec Dehumidifyer 240 watt- 10L/24h Filter: Prima Klima carbon filter PK2600 fan: 2 x Secret Jardin 20watt osc. fan Pots: Gronest 4 x 11 liter airpots Water : automated water system PH: bluelab Nutrients: Plagron cocos A + B Plagron PK 13/14 ATA cal/mag Epsom salt no rights to music in the videos Week 6 She is doing great, She has grown another 18 cm in height. I did some LST. It is a very open plant i think this is from her sativa haze parents. Also did some defoliation. Her main cola is really stacking up very nice. i hope and think this is going to be a nice huge main cola. You can see the difference in genetics really good compared to my DP plants. I'm a terpene lover and hoping for something different and special ones with her. Thanks for checking and stay safe all ๐Ÿ˜‹

Thank you. Growing cannabis is an art that seems to evolve as you learn it. While it may only take a little knowledge to get started, It seems that this may take a life-time to perfect (doubt I'll ever make that category, but I will certainly try). So thank-you to the community that Shares, Comments, Follows, and Likes. Your efforts in any of these actions make these journals a worth-while and perfect way for us all to learn. I personally appreciate it. Also a huge Thanks has to go out to Grow Diaries for making this community even possible. Your efforts to supply the data storage alone is more than enough, but you the fact that you dont stop there and constantly try to improve the experience even more makes this my favorite community to to share on. And then lastly, but certainly not least, a heartfelt Thank-you to Fast Buds for selecting me as 2nd place in a photo contest and making these seeds available, I'll try my best to honor the gift and opportunity to grow these. Your sponsorship in keeping the community active here is an in-valuable learning tool of its own. And then your branding/research helps give me confidence in knowing that I am working with great genetics before I even start my grow. ---------------------------- Germination Start 2/13/24 to 2/18/24 2/19 to 2/25 Veg Days 1 to 7 Week 0 to 1 Germination took 6 days from dropping in water to transplanting into 1 gallon pots. 29hours in a glass of 6.3ph room temp RO water. Something I would only attempt if they were both floating. They were,so leaving them that long they were able to crack open. I then placed both in paper towels wet with the glass water and pasted to the sides of the glass for 3 days (1 day too long in retrospect). I placed in rapid rooter pods and closed with toothpick tips. They popped out from the pods 1 day later but I gave them 2 days before transplant. Video: Incubator water level is key for rapid rooter pods to wick properly during incubation. Transplant to 1 gal pots: I am using a 50/50, 50%perlite/50%soil with a .5lb of dolomite lime and a .5ml of flora micro added to .5 gallon of RO water (Im mixing 2 gallons of soil total so the water to soil ratio is 1/4 of the total medium volume) to achieve a soil tested ph of 6.4. I am using a 50/50 soil/perlite mix because I plan to use these in auto pots. I also used about 1 cup of the same soil mix water to pour around the plant after transplant; you can see how the perlite rises to the top where I did this. I sprayed two domes and covered - I plan to leave covered for the first week. Feed: I kept them under the domes and sprayed every day that I didnt feed them, to keep humidity up while I let them find water in the soil. By the end of the week I took the domes off and took pictures. Feed this week was another 1 cup of 6.3ph water 5 days after transplant. Feed plan next week will increase the amount to 2 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I want to see the water run through so if I need to use more than 2 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefully spreading the roots out while doing it. Veg Plan: I plan on 8 colas for each plant. So that will be 3 topping days and a total of 7 cuts. I will want to cut the first time on day 21 if I have 5+ nodes. I will transfer to 5 gallon auto pots with-in 1 week of the first topping. Once I have 3 nodes of new growth past the first topping, I will top those two branches to the first node again. (that's 3 cuts total by this point) Then, after 3 new nodes of growth after that, I will do a last topping on the 4 branches. (4 new cuts added to make a total of 7 cuts and 8 colas) I will train the branches using LST/HST with tie downs as soon as I can after the first topping day to help maintain the branches growing where I want them to. I will also introduce an adjustable tomato ring after they have settled into the 5 gallon forever pots to provide support and mobility Hopefully all goes well, and I will have 1 to 2 weeks of growth before flip after week 8. I think it sounds more ambitious than it really is, but if you follow this journal, we will see together.

W17 (23-5 tm 29-5) 23-5 Temperature: 23.9 degrees (lights on) 19.2 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 59% (highest) 47% (lowest) Watering: None. 24-5 Temperature: 24.5 degrees (lights on) 19.2 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 47% (lowest) Watering: 1000 ml. No pictures. After some waterings without any NPK nutes, the leaves are still very green, this indicates there is still enough nutrients available in the soil. From now on the last 1.5 weeks of flower i will only give RO water with an PH between 6.3 and 6.4 25-5 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 20.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 50% (lowest) Watering: None. 26-5 Temperature: 24.9 degrees (lights on) 19.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 45% (lowest) Watering: 1000 ml. No pictures. 27-5 Temperature: 24.2 degrees (lights on) 20.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 69% (highest) 40% (lowest) Watering: 1000 ml. 28-5 Temperature: 26.1 degrees (lights on) 20.9 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 69% (highest) 40% (lowest) Watering: None. 29-5 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 20.2 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 70% (highest) 46% (lowest) Watering: None. The buds are swelling nicely, are full of THC and smells very intense like candy. I cant wait to see the end product!

Pictures are from Day 91. Top Gun 2 is coming to the finish line, the whole tent reeks and starting to see good amounts of amber, although the buds arenโ€™t as solid as I was hoping for. I could harvest as soon as today. This grow has been another great experience of learning about these awesome plants. Please also check out my gorilla cookies grow that went alongside these two topguns. Thanks!

Is a potent strain & has a spicy aftertaste but sweet & candy gas terp on the low. Can definitely tell leaning on the Runtz side & yield was okay but not like Permanent Pounder yield since I harvest both on 420. Runtz Head a tasty strain while Permanent Pounder gassy funk & sour.. will update pounder .. I think I shall do better in future. Going to go with a 4 gallons fabric pot & see what happening without the net trellis.

Finally got some videos up (I think)! One shows the canopy, the other gives an idea of the training under the screen. Shes finally showing signs of female and pistils are popping out like crazy. Decided to not tuck the final days of the stretch so the buds wonโ€™t start in the screen and start right above it, seems like Iโ€™d be easier come harvest time

A dehumidifier was added in the past week Since the grow box is in an open room, bought one that could bring down the humidity for the whole house. That room stays around 44% and the box around 50%. I took a few pictures and a video using a magnifying glass as well. Might be a week or two from flushing so that I can harvest.

(Days 15-21) (Day 21) Everything is looking really good this week. I got my MH hooked up and dimmed to 250w. Plants are responding very well. Not a single sign of yellowing and plants are all a nice healthy green. I covered up the transparent solo cups with some newspaper as the roots are starting to pool around the bottom of the cups. Iโ€™m going to transplant everything into 2gal pots with my inoculated 50/50 coco blend sometime next week. There is a nice layer of mycorrhizal fungi starting to coat the surface now. Blackberry breath #1 is still looking oddly deformed still but I am concluding itโ€™s genetic. Going to be trying this โ€˜Boogie Brewโ€™ tea stuff in the next few days as well. Iโ€™m pretty sure the leaf discoloring I saw that one day was from using unstable RO water. I am making sure to stabilize all water with rain/snow/brita before watering. It seems to have cleared up in a just a few days of proper water. I didnโ€™t get around to getting a c02 canister this week but I will grab it at the same time I get those 2gal nursery pots. Iโ€™m shocked at how well the air pump is helping the bbb#2. It is always the perkiest plant in the tent and despite being a runt, itโ€™s already outpacing most of the others in terms of new growth. I guess air is an often overlooked factor when growing. Hopefully the coco blend will help get things a little more aerated when I transplant. Been thinking Iโ€™m going to just veg until they all show sex and then flip them. (Day 17) I gave my first pest/mold prevention spray today. I then raised the light all the way up to the top of the tent for a few hours. Plants responded well and no spots, burn ect. Iโ€™m also going to give my first top dressing today. Iโ€™m using my new organic dry amendments scratched into the surface of the solo cups with some added promix as a layer of mulch. I donโ€™t want to see any yellowing at all in veg this run. I fucked up hard last time so Iโ€™m going to make sure it doesnโ€™t happen again.

Esta semana pasada ha seguido creciendo pero a menos ritmo, luna nueva que tampoco ayuda y un espacio ya reducido para su tamaรฑo aun asi hemos solucionado tema plagas con aceite de neem y aracnabis de terranabis, como vemos en las fotos las raices blancas indican que hemos llegado a tiempo para el trasplante, hemos podado los primeros dos nudos para dar fuerza superior, estamos en luna creciente veremos como tira con el trasplante y la ayuda lunar! Buenos humos

Well i figured i would try some different this week. I main lined her and topped her on day 9. Lets watch and see how she responds. I feel as though doing this early in veg will allow her more time to adjust before flower. Towards the end of the week 2, four days after the HST....we see 2 new main top braches coming in, as well as some action at the internodal cut point which is indicating a "Fimm" job rather my prior presumption of topping the plant. None the less i am excited to see her grow, and i intend on letting her grow naturally beyond this point....just to see the results.

So she really stretched super hard when she geared up for bloom. Over night she hit me with 6 inches of growth. Leaving my grow light far to close for the fragile new growth that was coming in. It was a lot worse mid grow week last week. I re adjusted my lighting SMH. Her tips slightly recovered but They will never fully recover. Other than that... shes stack amazing. Super bushy and LOTS of budsites. Bunch of donkey dock cola candidates. If I can stop beating em up with light intensity. She spans the full 2x2 like a beast. What an autoflower. I preventative treated her again with Dr zhymes. Shes due for another shower mid week. Got her on a solid balanced feed. I will adjust levels as needed from here. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.
