11/15 - Day 43 - I've changed the light schedule on the timer from 20/4 to 18/6. I will be heading out of town for 10 days on December 25th and so I'll need to harvest and hang to dry by the 24th at the latest. I've read in a few forums that decreasing the lights on/lights off ratio can speed flower maturation on auto-flowers. The other growers also mentioned that the decrease in light also reduces yields, but on such a tight timeline I'd trade total yield for more fully ripened buds any day of the week. Would certainly be interested if anybody has experience/knowledge that contradicts what I've read. Plants stretched another 2 inches in the last 24 hours putting them 22 inches from the light. I still have room to raise my light another 2 inches, but if these girls stretch more than 6 more inches they'll be < 18 inches from the light which I'm assuming would cause light burn based on the research i've done on this 600W ViparSpectra reflector series. Here's hoping they don't stretch more than 6 inches from here. 11/17 Day 45 - Haircut day. Left a few fan leaves on the shorter/lower shoots, but took almost everything else. Tallest tops had stretched another 4 inches in the past 48 hours, and were 18 inches from the light. I raised the light the final 2 inches I had available, which places it back to 20 inches from the tallest bud sites. Hopefully the haircut I gave the plants slows down the stretch, but either way it looks like I'll have to do a lot of retraining before I head out of town tomorrow for 5 days. 11/18 Day 46 - Fed nutes. Cal mag + advanced nutrients (micro, grow, bloom), and MKP. 4 Litres of water per plant. A lot of runoff in the saucers, but I'm out of town for the next 5 days so I'm leaving it to be absorbed throughout the week.

I will be dropping the amount of nutes to 1 mil a L from 2ml a L but leaving the cal mag the same. I'm very happy with the MH TS 1000๐Ÿ’ก and they plant also seams to agree update ๐Ÿ“…Day 52 : flower 5/5/2021 Not to much change it the problems yet but I have noticed she is getting fatter under the Mars Hydro TS 1000 she is loving the ๐Ÿ’ก and I am too so lets see how she does.

This week I tried to let them go, only did some gnat hunting with the vacuum to keep populations down. Sunshine found a great way to hold the plant down with some thrift store Christmas light fixtures. At the end of this week, I tied the remaining upward stalks down and away. The final bits of training before we can hopefully go towards flowering coming week. I did some foliar feeding also to help the soil dry out a bit, also to fight the gnats. Maybe overdid it a bit with a few yellow points on the leaves. On to flowering!!

Transplanted from 15 gallons to 25 gallons at the start of the week. Changed amendment ratio to 50/50 of 444 & 284 as this is the last week of veg. Adjusted lst to have the canopy level and I will take clones before the flip to flower.

Beginning of week.. So for the leaves to get burned, they literally have to be touching the LED chip lol.. Just one leaf was touching, as you can see in the pic. Trichomes are beginning to form.. They arent really giving off any scent yet.. Even when you rub the trichomes and give a wiff.. Normally can get a hint of what the finished nugs will smell like.. Not yet on this girl tho.. Obviously, this isn't gonna be the greatest genetics.. I was just trying to make my own feminized seeds with 2 bag seeds and also trying to figure out how I can fill the entire grow space and use every square inch of it.. Shouldn't have let her veg for so long.. Maybe just a week less would've been perfect. But you live and you learn... The supercropping has hardened.. Now the branches are pretty much back to their original spots lol.. So that was pointless stress.. Ugh.. Again.. Live and learn lol.. Mid week.. I went ahead and relined the entire inside with new foil (shiny side to reflect) I know people hate on this.. But these lights arent strong enough to cause any damage lol.. Unless actually touching the leaves.. Which I figured out at the beginning of this week. I also was able to redo the lights.. They were wired inside the tent.. But ai cut some holes thru the top so that the light sockets are halfway in the grow box.. That gave me an extra 2 inches or so lol.. Not much but now the entire canopy is getting some light.. Took me forever and was pissing me off to the point I almost gave up.. But I got it done. Trichomes are forming.. Not much of a smell.. There is some.. And it stinks.. I guess like a skunk smell.. Or cat piss lol.. But I'm happy with my creation.. So far! Update on the smell... I was able to find a good bit of trichomes to rub and smell.. So fruity and delicious! Idk where I got the cat piss smell from lol.. So sticky! Yummmm! End of week.. Lookin good this week.. No issues.. Was able to raise the lights and happy with the way things are fitting in the grow box.. Not much to say.. She is beginning to stack nicely too.. Cant wait to see the end results! On to the next week!!!...

The plant is growing really well and the new tops are coming through strong. I hope to start training with clips this week and will move it up to a 5 gallon pot in the next week or two

Hi Growmies, So far she is developing very nicely. Had someone from the community suggest plant success orca and Rezin to me, sp these were added for the next weeks feed to prepare the pre flower. The roots have started to nest themselves right above the airstone. As of now I think Iโ€™ll give her two more weeks and then flip her, as she is stretching a bit slower than I thought she would. Thank you all for passing by and see you next week.

Der KISS ist das Licht wohl etwas zu stark. Die obersten Blรคtter waren leicht nach oben gerollt und mir zu hell. Auch bei Lemon Orange konnte ich das beobachten, sobald der Abstand zur Lampe weniger als 40cm war. Ansonsten sehen die Ladies gut aus. Sonntag geht es dann wahrscheinlich in die Blรผte.

This week they really grew a lot. They put more weight on at the bud sites and have grown a little tall! That's ok I placed the grow bulb up on the top along with stretching the tent out with a bottle to relieve some room for the plant to grow. I can't believe how tall she's got! They continue to love to eat and drink plenty of water! The plant on the right had grown it's roots out of the grow bag so it killed those roots and then went into re-veg. The plant is now starting to grow again and developing areas around the bud sites. I've amended the soil with organic amendments which were earth worm castings, languinite, and seabird guano. I also feed with the General Hydroponics two to three times a week with a day of water in between sometimes I do two. Then I usually amend with organic amendments or organic compost if needed. All in all they're doing great and are heading towards being a beautiful tasty flower for me to smoke! LoL
