Had to tie down some mains diagonally. She has more stretch than her mother for sure. Smells super skunky with that sweet candy in the background right now. Feeding every other day.

Vamos familia, aquí os traigo la quinta semana y última de crecimiento de estas Royal Gorilla de RoyalQueenSeeds. Vaya color, y van con buen ritmo. Añadimos flash root, tetra9, tucan ,gold Joker y la base de crecimiento de Agrobeta , (Blue line). La temperatura maxima es de 26.5 y la Mínima se queda en 23.5. En cuanto a la humedad está estable en 50% En este armario si me da miedo la temperatura cara a verano a ver qué puedo apañar, igual miro un pingüino o algo así para la habitación como solución al verano. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Hasta aquí es todo , espero que lo disfrutéis, buenos humos 💨💨

They have continued to grow well and since removing the sick dr jack outside the tent this has allowed space for me to try and tie down the larger overstretched plant. So far the LST methods have seemed to be working out well too giving a lot more nodes access to light. Still not quite sure what was wrong with the dr jack but there is some small new growth and there are no markings on the leafs.

2018-03-20 Week 12 Day 1 New week and not much to say. No water or nutes today, just the regular weekly check to see that they look nice and healthy. Raised the lamp about 10 cm to make sure that the girls don't get burned again. Sour Ripper nr1 is 59 cm Sour Ripper nr2 is 57 cm ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Strain information After much effort Ripper seeds can introduce one of the most appreciated varieties by genetic collectors. They have worked to get one of the few lines of Sour Diesel feminized version preserving the main qualities of a good Sour D: flavor and potency. Sour Ripper has a sativa structure with a wide distance between branches, little foliage and a more compact and desirable bud than the Original Sour Diesel we work. It's flowering period is 65-70 days. The most "undergrown" taste of the United States available for your collection. Vegetative: 1 to 2 weeks Genotype: 60% Sativa / 40% Índica Indoor flowering: 65/70 days. Outdoor flowering: Mid October Yield: Medium / High Effect: Powerful. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok so I asked about harvest to you wonderful folks, and decided to chop. I've left PPP3 as she isn't quite at the same stage as the other 2 yet. So I used the old microwave drying trick. I remembered to put it in for 1 minute on a piece of kitchen towel- Please do NOT do this! It caught the paper and weed on fire and I had to put it out in the sink. (It was only in there for about 15 seconds). I tried again using a couple seconds at a time. It worked out that time. I smoked some up, and it's very nice. Tastes peppery and exotic. Smells divine like dank usually does. 7.3.25: Buds we're ready to trim, I think slightly too dry. Could have done it yesterday, probably. Weight dry with stems was 1 and 7/8 of an ounce. I'm putting it in my mason jar

Beginning of week.. Wow.. Just... Wow lol.. That's all I can say. Amazing scent.. Gorgeous colors.. Very happy and healthy girl. Besides very minor spotting on some lower leaves.. Which I am assuming was from Calcium def.. She is looking great! I'm not sure what this is all about, but damnnear all my plants have this clawing on leaves that are not exposed to the light.. Looks like wind burn.. Looks like nitrogen toxicity.. But I know for a fact that its neither.. Fans are not even really blowing on the plant itself.. And other leaves would also be clawing if it were nitrogen toxicity.. I'm assuming it's just from not enough light exposure.. But not an issue.. She is happy and loving life! At this point I am stopping silica.. Just too many conflicting articles about it not doing any good in flower.. And even causing the smoke to be harsh and the bud hard to break up.. Which does make alot of sense.. I only like to use silica in veg anyways.. And for the stretch.. It just makes more sense to me.. Mid week.. Adjustments need to be made.. The very top of each cola is getting a little bit of clawing.. I'm thinking it may be time to cut back on some Micro.. Maybe even the Floralicious Plus, since they both have so much Nitrogen in them.. She's getting plenty of CalMag, and the other trace elements in the Micro shouldn't be that much of an issue.. Still gonna use the Micro.. Just cut it down from 1mL/L to .5mL/L. Maybe the clawing is just how these plants tend to grow?? I'm not sure.. I see alot of the clawing on her small side branches.. Always have on other grows too.. But maybe I've always been giving them too much Nitrogen in bloom.. Just seems more like a 'not getting light' kinda thing.. But now that it's on the top of the colas.. I'm thinking its a Nitrogen thing.. Anyways.. Such a gorgeous plant! Gorgeous colors.. Amazing smell.. Just... WOW! Lol Next day.. Ok I'm thinking the clawing is getting a little worse.. That's after I fed her using .75mL/L of Micro and about 10 drops of Floralicious Plus.. Both containing a bit of nitrogen.. I'm going to have to completely cut out the Floralicious Plus and just .5mL/L of the Micro.. I hope that doesn't cause any different issues.. It shouldn't.. And I'm going to bump up the Kushie Kush bloom booster a little.. Still not full strength but getting closer.. I hope this doesn't affect my final yeild and/or taste! I will literally cry if the taste is fucked up at all... 😢 lol.. Nah.. As strong as it is now.. I think that would be impossible! I got my new tent in yesterday.. Haven't set it up yet tho.. Gotta get everything ready to switch over soon.. It's still a 2×2.. But instead of 48" tall it's 55" tall.. Which would be a little better for taller plants (not by much.. But still better lol).. Anyways.. No more Floralicious Plus and only about half of the Micro doses (lol) that I intended to use in the first place.. She really doesn't like Nitrogen in flower.. Which is understandable.. But I've never had a plant this sensitive to it before.. Good learning experience for sure! End of week.. So I bought a Brita filter because my tap water is pretty shitty.. 240 PPM - 260 PPM.. I've only ran about a gallon through it and its barely bring it down to 190 PPM - 200 PPM.. I mean.. I also didnt use the actual Brita filter yet.. Just the Wal-Mart brand.. It sucks obviously.. When I run the actual Brita filter in my drinking pitcher.. It can bring the tap water down to about 160 PPM!!! Compared to the Wal-Mart filter.. That is fucking incredible! I'm thinking when I run a couple more gallons thru, it will hopefully bring it down a bit more.. I don't need it to be 0 PPM.. just not 260 PPM.. That's fucking insane! Our water sucks out here.. The plants dont seem to mind very much, but after using the filtered water, instead of the nutrient water being 1150 PPM its barely 980 PPM - 1000 PPM.. NOTot a huge change.. But I think it will help. For harvest, I'll use the FloraKleen once along with distilled water.. Still got a few weeks before thinking about that.. But I always flush with my tap water and can't ever get the PPM below 400 PPM or so... Now about the plant lol... Yeah, it's gotta be nitrogen toxicity with the clawing leaves.. Again, I've went down on the Micro since it has so much nitrogen.. And also cut out the Floralicious Plus.. Sometimes I'll add a couple drops.. But it really makes me nervous lol.. I DO NOT want to hurt the yeild or taste of this girlie! But she is doing good.. Just as a test, I added a little bit of some feminized pollen to a very small nug on the bottom.. Its photoperiod pollen.. But this should create a "fast version" according to Sweet Seeds.. But she is doing good.. Smelling amazing.. Gorgeous colors!!.. Anyways... On to the next week!!!...

Last days for most of them - only Strawberry Cough will stay longer - she is super hungry and I can not keep up with feeding her - most of leaves are yellow now. 😱 The rest - four plants will be harvested on the weekend - 2-3 days from now and frozen - I'll be making bubble hash and fresh frozen live resin from them in the following weeks 😈 Trichomes are mostly milky with some amber starting - ideal ripeness and time to freeze those glands

Seconda settimana di veg...la runtz che è nata prima dell'altra sta mutando in modo strano. Non avevo mai visto spostarsi il centro apicale..sembra che si è piegata e l'apicale sta crescendo come sé fosse un ramo laterale 😂🤣🤦💪

3/August She was a late starter and in the tent with her bigger sister. I would prefer to have her in veg for two more weeks but her sister is ready so I'll flower her also. She got trimmed today.

13 Jun 2021 Continuing to flush my DarkStar Kush probably for another week at least. If I were following my original plan, I would be cutting her down today and starting the harvest. However, the runoff is still colored (not as much as it was, but still), and the TDS runoff was higher today than yesterday by almost 200 ppm. I’ve added new pics for this new week to show how she’s changing colors later in her life. She’s begging to be harvested, but I want to smoke her and not her nutrients! I’ve already waited this long, what’s another week or so. 🤷‍♂️ Oh well. I gave her a gallon of water chilled to 49.2 degrees F, and gave her 20 drops of pH DOWN which adjusted the pH from its initial 8.2 to a final pH of 6.7. The TDS going in was 76 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.3, and TDS runoff was 1740 ppm (up from 1462 ppm yesterday). Tent temperature was 82 degrees F, and humidity was 42%. 14 Jun 2021 Continuing with the flush today. Feeding a gallon of 45.5 degree F water with nothing more than 22 drops (gtts) of pH DOWN to make it just right. Initial pH was 8.4, and adjusted down to 6.4. The TDS going in was 85 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.4, and TDS runoff was 1377 ppm. Working in the right direction at least. TDS runoff yesterday was 1740 ppm, so a reduction of 363 ppm today, but still a ways to go. Tent temperature was 82 degrees F and humidity was 47%. She’s looking more and more ready for harvest each day! Uploaded some pics of her colorful foliage today along with some new trichome pics. They’re almost all cloudy/milky with some amber interspersed here and there. Come on flush!! Do your job! 😜 16 Jun 2021 Went out of town on a day trip yesterday, so no watering was done, but I’m back today to continue the flush. The tent temperature was 81 degrees F, and humidity was 43%. Thought I’d start off backwards today in my note from the norm. I gave a gallon of cold water (51 degrees F) with 20 drops of pH DOWN to adjust the initial pH of 8.2 to 6.5. The TDS going in was 83 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.5, which to me is promising, and the TDS runoff was 814 ppm. That’s a decrease of 563 ppm since the last watering/flush on the 14th. Hopefully in just a couple of days I’ll be able to start the harvest because she is READY!! I took more trichome pics today which were marvelous! They are perfect (to my untrained and inexperienced eye)! Hopefully I’m just days away!! 17 Jun 2021 Continuing the flush another day. The TDS runoff is still decreasing a little bit every day. Today I’ll be uploading a video instead of a bunch of pics. I already have a lot for this week, so I figured I’d do something different. I’m still giving chilled, and properly pH’ed fresh water. Nothing else. So, today I gave a gallon of H2O chilled to 51F. The initial pH was 8.4, so I added 22 drops (1ml) of pH DOWN to adjust it to 6.4. The TDS going in was 85 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.5, and TDS was 758 ppm. There is a 56 ppm decrease from yesterday, and I was hoping for much more, but it is what it is. I’ll keep going till it is better till harvest. Looking at the plant, it’s losing several leaves that are just drying up and falling off. Not a lot, but about as much as should be expected at this stage. The plant, trichomes, and buds are ready for harvest, but I want to make sure that I get all the nutrients out before I do it. Thankfully, I’m a patient person! 19 Jun 2021 I’ve been doing the flush for 2 weeks now, and the TDS runoff is still measuring 647 ppm. Honestly, I don’t know what the level should be for the harvest, but I’m getting to the point where I just want to go ahead and do it. Her buds are looking awesome, and many of the sugar leaves have turned dark purple, but she’s losing a lot of her bigger leaves. None of the ones around any buds, so I’m not concerned with it that much. However, I don’t want the trichomes to get more amber. The vast majority are milky, which is what I’m looking for with only a smattering of amber here and there. She’s just right!! Anyway, I gave a gallon of water at 48.7F with an initial pH of 8.3. I added 21 drops (1ml) of pH DOWN to adjust it to 6.7. The TDS going in was 71 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.7 (it has consistently been the same or just a decimal point off from that going in for the last week or so). The runoff TDS was 647 ppm as noted above. Tent temperature was 84F, and humidity was 48%.

Another good week, stretch is full on and probably another week or 2. They all got a topdress with compost and wormicompost, insectfrass, basalt, kelp, epsom, and seed meal to keep the worms happy. All in small doses... less is more :-)

12/13 Continuing to leaf tuck and play with the sticks to bring out the tips Love how its growing as it may be here longer than planned so nuets are now at half grow half bloom early in attempt to keep em in veg longer. They had zero stress or deficiency in their little lives so far and that's showing in a longer veg period were it not for a new dry and grow coming up I might be tempted to let one finish under the LEDS, liking the new lights loving the coco and Coco-Tek (sole nuet atm)looking for ways to cut my work load 😁 See if I can buy the Stardawg another week or so Feed set to 825-ish ppm 20% runoff at 2.0 quarts 5.9PH Almost forgot, getting one of these reptile heat lamps for every tent they are loving the 24hr IR, an island paradise in the frozen north 12/14 Foliar feeding mainly just because I had it made up used as a preventative. RO water, wetting agent, 1ml CalMag/quart, both plants at lights out. 12/15 Defoliation day - opened them up cleaned up lower end pics later maybe tons going on 12/16 Feed reduced 100ppm to 725ppm due to white tips on new growth, 30% runoff just to be sure. 12/17 Feed was good the white tips seem to be diminishing at least none on new stuff overnight Removing Bloom nuets so all Grow , see if she flowers now, beginning to think there is something to this as never had an auto go this long in veg. Foliar of Cal-Mag 1ml/qt +wetting solution as a preventative as seeing some "ghost" signs in some leaves, cant hurt as you really have to look close. 12/18 Guess who is going into flower 24 hrs after removing bloom nuets? Not completely but its beginning fast, this last week of veg. Folded back in 2ml Bloom Going to try that seriously on our next auto run but that's months away as two photo grows are on tap.

Overall the blue cheese performed good and i knew it was going go to be last to harvest! The buds were so damp and sticky it created some mold on the top cola! Lucky it didnt spread to the rest of the plant! Next time im definitely using some low stress training method for this. Dry weight 34 grams altogether!
