The buds and trichimes are developing nicely. The defoliation didn't harm them at all. The plants are starting to get really thirsty so I'm giving bigger amounts of water. 10 liters at the moment.

Note: Moisture and Temp readings are done in the mornings. Lights are on an automated 17/9 schedule unless stated otherwise. Drip water system waters 1 Liter every 9 hours. Quick Notes: I notice as I go into full-blown flower, the plants are starting to need less frequent waterings, especially North. The watering system overflows her pot often, and the AKs soils feel relatively damp before the auto-watering starts. All plants are stopping their growth also. North is the furthest into flowering and is starting to smell and get sticky, the microscope is showing trichome development also. 📏: AK1: 36 in (91.44 cm), AK2: 44 in (111.76 cm), North: 24 in (60.96 cm) Day 64 (Jul 29) - Manually watering today. All plants drinking a bit slower, especially North (probably had a 0.5 liter overspill). Refilling drip water system tomorrow to get a better pace for watering. 💧: Tap: 7.45 pH Adjusted with pH down.

Week has gone very well. Growth has been steady. I'm going to have to think about budding soon. I'm going to run out of room with this amount of growth I'm having.

They still have to get used to their new environment... Light stress from the cold nights and a little lack of nutrients in the soil make them yellow but hopefully that will be all right. Because I give it my own schedule which is nutrition nutrition water. nutrition nutrition water.

Forte odeur de fruits exotique se dégage de ces dames, elle sont bien givré etle rinçage a commencé.

I am going to Hang dry with the entire plant so I will not have wet weight. But yeah dry weight coming soon!

Right so I’ve been pretty slack with these girls an very slack on my diaries so sorry to anyone who was checking in regularly, heads been a bit fried but I’m back and this girl is weird asf but I love it the whole thing is like twisted an super stinky now too 🤩

Week 28 – Flowering Week 6 This week clearly places the Pineapple Upside Down in the final stretch of its flowering cycle. We are getting close to the end, and expectations regarding yield are now realistic. The plant produced a large number of small buds that never fully developed, which was anticipated considering the difficulties encountered earlier in the grow. Despite this, the run is not a total loss. There will still be material worth harvesting: the best tops will be kept as flower, while lower-quality buds and popcorn will likely be processed later. Trichome development confirms that we are approaching maturity, with most trichomes now appearing cloudy. This indicates that the plant is nearing its harvest window. Nutrition Nutrition was slightly adjusted this week to better match the late flowering stage. Base nutrients were gently reduced: Bloom A and Bloom B were lowered from 2.0 ml/L to 1.5 ml/L. At the same time, PK was increased from 2.5 ml/L to 3.0 ml/L. In practice, part of what was removed from Bloom A and Bloom B was deliberately reallocated to PK. The intention is to support final bud maturation and density, while limiting unnecessary nitrogen intake at this advanced stage of flowering. Nutrition will remain as-is for this week. Starting next week, feeding will be stopped to allow the plant to finish maturing naturally before harvest. Environment & Light Light intensity was intentionally not increased. PPFD remains around 800–900, which is more than sufficient at this stage and helps avoid excess heat in the grow space. No major interventions are planned from here. The strategy is simple: maintain stable conditions, observe closely, and let the plant finish its cycle without stress. See you next week, and take care.

Growing very bushy

Cherry Cola diesel smell ⛽️

Last week of flower, I flushed during the last 4 days, I didn't do big flushes I simply water the plants with plain water, last 3 days of complete darkness. I think that next time I will complete the flush and then give 3 days of complete darkness, the fact that the plant is not receiving light makes flushing harder because the plant drinks less water. During the last 3 days, the humidity was always greater than 50% but the plants didn't seem affected. Before I started the flush the pant was only receiving 8h of light. I'm currently drying the plants, the temperature fluctuates between 17 and 19 degrees, I start with 65% humidity and I reduce 1% of humidity every day. I Do a 14 day dry DAY 134 PH - 6.02 Solution Temp - 16.9 PPM-1955 Watering Volume per plant - 4L DAY 136 - Molasses PH - 5.92 Solution Temp - 15.2 PPM-300 Watering Volume per plant - 4L

En su Nuevo suelo y con los microbios ganaron vigorosidad, las hojas están frondosas, y sus tallos engordaron, la verdad siento que prometen mucho 😈

I feel like it’s finally starting up again and my plant didn’t die. The buds are getting thick and dense. Some are about 37 mm diameter Thicker branches make bigger buds I’ll be doing more supercropping the next time.

Beginning of week.. They are starting to show pistils everywhere.. They both already showed preflower.. But you can really see more and more pistils popping out every day.. And the Mandarin Cookies is already stretching WAY too much lol.. This isn't gonna work out as I wanted it to.. Ugh.. This one Mandarin Cookies could easily fill this 2x4 tent by herself at this point.. Poor ETHOS Cookies is gonna be drowned out or deprived of light.. But this Mandarin Cookies is gonna produce more than enough by herself as well.. Even if she isn't a huge yeilder! The ETHOS Cookies is showing some hints of some possible early bag apeal?? Maybe?? The stems that connect the leaf to the main stem is showing some cool designs.. Usually they are just solid red or purple.. Or solid green or yellow.. This one is green with red stripes.. Not a deficiency because the plant is healthy. If there were any signs of issues then the coloring on the stem would be an issue.. In this case, it is genetics and usually is in my case.. I've always had 99% of my plants show the red/purple stems.. From autos to photos.. From ilgm to fastbuds.. They almost have all showed this "sunburn" type coloring on the stems that are exposed to the heavy lighting.. Usually nothing to worry about.. Now if you see other issues and that begins to pop up out of nowhere.. Then yes.. It would be a deficiency.. But this is why I love growing in coco.. Its quicker to fix issues than soil.. I can flush all day and still add my nutrients after without having to wait for the medium to dry out.. Hydroponics would be the easiest, I suppose.. Just change the reservoir lol.. Damn.. That was alot of nonsense lol.. Sorry I've been smokin my cheese harvest! Yum! Lol Mid week.. Ok so the Mandarin Cookies was stretching 2-3 inches daily! I went ahead and dropped the Mandarin Cookies off of the crate I still had her on.. Now she is on the ground.. The ETHOS Cookies is still up on 2 larger crates.. A good 10 inches from the ground maybe.. I vegged this Mandarin Cookies a little too long.. I bet one week earlier would have made a HUGE difference.. But whatever.. I am content woth the way things are going.. Runoff pH is still trippin on the Mandarin Cookies.. Usually 5.7.. It has spit out 5.5 once or twice but it seems to jump back up to 5.7 the next watering.. The ETHOS Cookies has been dialed back in.. Runoff is the same as it goes in.. But the ladies are both lookin healthy.. Slowly spittin out more and more pistils.. Within the next 5 days or so, there should be little clusters of pistils at each top.. I'm so excited to see what these girls do under the Optic SLIM 320H!!!.. Beast of a light! Bad ass genetics.. It doesn't get any better than that! Lol... End of week... I am seeing some leaf tips being burnt on the very top leaves (newest sprouts).. Which is understandable.. I have been really pushing these girls.. Really just wasting nutes.. But I am going to down the nutes a bit next week for sure.. Big changes will be made.. No more MYCO Plus.. No more FloraGro.. No more Armor Si (Silica).. Instead of 1400 - 1500 PPM, I think I want to get it down to 1000 - 1200 PPM. We are starting to dry out around here.. And I'm getting close to running out of rain water lol.. But filtering my tapwater should be ok.. Still got the power of the light at 50%... About 12 - 14 inches from the canopy.. For the most part lol.. About 750 μmols at the center and about 500 - 550 μmols at the far ends of the tent. Thinking I may go ahead and upgrade to a 6 inch exhaust system.. I like the Vivosun 6" fan (the black with red blades and adjustable speeds) along with the ducting and a carbon filter.. All for $79.. Not bad.. Anyways.. Next week we should see alot more pistils! On to the next!...

These clones are growing really fast. I have them in a tent enriched with CO2. I’ve been transitioning them to flower slowly (30 min shorter each day till I hit 12/12) I’ll be fully into the stretch next week as I hit 12/12 lighting schedule tomorrow. I built my soil with super soil concentrate so I’m only supplementing silica with silicic acid and a foliage misting with kelp extract. Other than that they get plain well water from me. I’m heading out of town for 5 days starting tomorrow so I’m excited to see the growth they put on in my absence.

March 9th. I nearly forgot the Update from the " Eggs" These Plants are growing in less than 10 g of Soil Feeding/ watering daily . They are diving into the Feedingsolution Its alittle tricky to keep them happy but , I feel it works Flowers are stacking and Leaves are fading alittle everything asign for Final Weeks Those Runtz smell like Heaven I still have alot of Fun with those Grows

I fucked up drying. Room RH is 80% plus but I had fans running.. usually, locally, I cant get my dries to go longer than 3 - 5 days.. been drying for 5 days but with the humidity being at 80% - 85% inside the lung room and tent she hasnt even began to dry. Plus, I havent been able to trim her up yet.. just been jiggling the jar around a few times a day and keeping the jar open, inside the tent with an exhaust fan running and another usb fan moving air.. but not blowing on the buds at all.. but around the jar.. so nervous to get mold!!! Drying still.. but day 3 in jar.. She is still way too wet to be jarred. I have just been shaking the jar around like 4 times a day MINIMUM and keep the jar in he tent with air flow.. humidity is still being a butthead.. but easing up a bit.. down to 70%-ish.. when I do seal the jars, it still reads a little over 70%.. I will keep doing this until I get to about 65% or possibly even as high as 68%.. as long as I keep up the burping.. but so far, I just leave the lid open and keep it in the tent with a couple fans running.. no mold, so she should be good.. still gonna keep flipping the buds a few times a day.. this is going to be some DANK! already tried a few nugs.. still alot of chlorophyll, but she is slowly getting to the cure zone!!! Drying day 14.. Finally got the jar down to 65% RH.. that took alot of rolling the jar (to move buds around).. at least 4 - 5 times daily for this entire time I trimmed the buds and put them into the jar waaaay too early.. no mold tho.. and the buds dont tear apart anymore. They should start to crumble (kinda) in the next 2 - 4 weeks.. but going to see how things (including weather) are going to go if I only burp once or twice daily. I kinda want to bring the RH down a bit still.. like 62% 🤔 ah shit, I'm so indecisive lol.. probably leave it at 65% for a couple days and then try to get it down to 63% or 62%.. but once I see 59 or 58%.. it should still be good, but I get worried because I have overdried MANY harvests.. just trying to get things dialed in with drying and curing still.. even 4 years into this stuff! Lol.. but I'm getting a better hang of it.. kinda using my own methods mixed with what I find online.. just hard to judge when the plant is ready by snapping stems.. ive waited till the smallest stem I could find was making the "snap" noise.. but when I did that, the RH in the jars was only at 55% and lower.. the taste and smell were completely gone halfway thru the cure.. ive read that anywhere from 55% to as high as 70% RH is good.. but even at 70% I still have wetness issues.. buds and stems tearing.. still tastes like pure chlorophyll.. but since I've been kinda getting my dries dialed in, so I try to UNDER DRY to get buds to about 70% (that's in jars, not room). I really feel like this doesnt get explained enough in forums and online.. they tend to leave out some very important details.. like what to do when you overdry or underdry your flower.. if its too low, its trash. A 62% boveda and/or integra boost humidity packs can only do so much.. they have helped me, but only if the jars are still above 55% RH.. anything lower has completely removed terps within 2 weeks or so.. but yeah. In 4 years of trial and error (and yeah, forums and other grow diaires), I have found that it is better to UNDERDRY and either burp the jars MULTIPLE times a day (at least 4 - 5) or take them back out and let them dry for another 8 - 12.. maybe 16 or even 24 hours.. depending out how wet the flower still is and the drying area. Anyways.. im stoned and just finger fucking my keyboard here.. but this is very useful info that I have found works for me.. if people dont agree, hey thats cool too.. then these are just notes for myself later 😋 OK, I'm done now.. will keep updating as I go! About 5 days into curing... Got the jar down to 62% - 63% RH so I can stop burping so much.. maybe a short burp twice daily for a week then slow it down to once a day and eventually just stop burping. Been keeping my hand out of the cookie jar for the last... 2 maybe 3 days. I'm going to try and only test a nug once a week to get a feel for how quick its curing and how much better the taste is from the previous week. Did this last grow and each week was a huge difference.. even at week 6! But she was more than ready at week 4!.. not sure how some can cure in 2 weeks unless you get it really dry.. which makes me nervous cuz at 55% RH, I've had horrible results. Trashed the whole remaining harvest.. this is why I like to try and keep the RH a little on the higher side (68% or 65% or so and slowly bring it down to 62% or 63%.. also called the "pre-cure" phase) but I want this harvest to hover around 62% for as long as possible because 62% seems to be the magical sweet spot when you leave them there for the entire 4 weeks.. just my experiences.. Buds aren't very dense, but I'm pretty sure thats due to harvesting a week or 2 too early 😢.. and leaving her in te dark for another 5 days or so before harvesting.. oh the horror she endured toward the end of her life.. she was a fighter tho.. no mold.. in ANY of these super high RH weeks she went thru during the most vulnerable parts! Harvsting, drying and pre-curing.. but not 1 speck of mold 😁 About 10 days into curing.. Yeah I wish I could have let her go another week or 2.. yield was defintely hurt.. quality could be better.. but it will do for now.. live and learn.. I seem to say that every grow 🤣 but still a nice, decent stoney, still pretty decent tasting smoke.. going to just do some small, short burps for the next week or 2. Want the RH to still come down a little.. but if not, meh. The RH (outside and indoors) has been high again.. but luckily I was able to get the RH in the jar down to 62% - 63% RH.. i just burp the jar for a few seconds.. remove the hygrometers and flip the buds.. then put the hygrometers back in, clos up the jar and let it sit till the next day. RH is so high in the room that it raises the RH in the jar a little. But they always go back down to 62% - 63% RH.. good deal. Waiting for a dry day to burp outside for a few minutes. Need to invest in a powerful dehumidifer.. ugh.. Somewhere between 3 and 4 weeks of curing... Yeah definately shows that I harvested early. Still an ok smoke. Could have been fatter.. could have been tastier.. definitely NOT Ethos fault. Kicking myself for not letting her go 1 - 2 more weeks. Wasnt by choice tho.. life happened and she had to be chopped. Just ready for a little warmth and I will begin the next run!!!

Posting Tuesday instead of Saturday because I'm heading out of town for the rest of the week. Luckily have some good help with watering but I'm going to feed them before I take off tomorrow. Bottle cap/gallon of veg nutrients for the photoperiods and same amount of bloom nutrients for the auto flowers. Still no signs of males and THINK there are female preflowers on two of the photos. The tallest plant is still worrying me. Wouldn't be surprised if that's male but the others are looking good so far. The gangly one in the pink pot and the only one I didn't top (germinated Ina beer can) are the ones that look like they are showing female preflowers. Using bamboo sticks and gardening tape to support some branches but also using the additional support to spread some of the branches. The light green one (germinated in a beer can as well) is the bushiest out of all them and seems to be liking the ScrOG. Will add more bamboo to the top of the tomato cages like the other plants in the next week or so. Autos are in the beginning of week 8 and about their third week of flowering. They've only been outdoors and started them April 6th so is there a possibility they could take longer than 12 weeks? This is my first auto grow so curious to see my yield. Been light on the nutrients since I'm a novice grower and afraid of frying them.
