Into week 10, well past the estimated 6 - 8 weeks to harvest time from the online stats, looks like i have a few more weeks to go until they are ready. There has been some expected leaf drop from the lower canopy, the signs of it autumning off are appearing, but all is going well and the buds are developing nicely so far. I started a timelapse a couple of weeks ago in the tent and i've left it to run untill the end of the grow, will be interesting to see how it turns out, i'll upload that on the harvest page. 20/11 Had a slight misshap as i was inspecting the plants and bent a stem over 😱 I utilized two matchsticks and some masking tape to splint it up again, the repair is holding nicely 😬 I've documented the repair and uploaded the video for posterity. 23/11 Fed 2 plants 1/4 tsp molasses 1ltr filtered water @6pH, ec200 with just molasses, just to see if there is any positive effect. Trichomes are just starting to appear. Defoliated the lower canopy, cutting all the smaller buds not getting any light and upper fan leaves to allow more light and energy to hit the main buds.

Update; February 14th, 2023. From the moment I flipped to flower, they’ve been exploding with growth! They are super healthy! They grow back and fill in so fast after defoliating, no matter how heavy I go. I’ve added the supplemental lighting (Viparspectra 600) this week to really get the most I can. Figuring out a way to mount it higher.

Flipped to flower on 01/25. Pretty easy week and she stretched as I hoped she would. Almost as tall as my other plant in the tent that's 2 1/2 weeks older! She's healthy and strong. Excited to see what she does in the flowering stage :)

5th week, I add the top shooter and I stop the top booster. Burns due to light intensity on 2 plants, readjustment of the height of the pots for a more homogeneous canopy and canopy bulb distance increased from 30 to 40 cm. Fan leafs tips turn slightly yellow, 2 consecutive waterings with water and enzymes (multizen 1ml / liter)

The plants have slowed their uptake of water. That combined with cooler temps have reduce to watering to a few gallons a day. I've included my end of generative 3 phase nutrient formula for this week. They are all close to generative 4 so I'll be watching for the upper leaves to fade to see if they will need to be fed. All of the plants were given tap water on day 1. Day 2 of this week everyone received the nutrient formula listed @2 gallons per pot. Day 3-7 this week just tap water. Plants are feeding lite and there's plenty of nutrient built up in the soil.

Alright, this is the best sativa ever tried, actually my first purple coloured buds. The smell is a lot like pineapples and berries. The effect so uplifting!!💜

Finaly she is looking and getting better. Becaue of my low humidity I had to spray her with water each time 15 min before the light when out. As you can see it helped allot. She is a tough lady and this genetics with the Plagron line is golden. I am almost ready the flip it to 12/12. I will do it this saturday. She only had water this week because the bat mix soil has enough nutes for her as you can see.😃 Also I dimmed my 250 watts to 175 watts and hang the light higher and what a change. After I flip it to 12/12 I will go back to 250 watts and after 3 weeks of flower i will 10% more. And I wil lower the light too. Lets hope she gets some nice colas.😅

Did some ballsy defoliation yesterday, but the girls seem to be rebounding well... Not sure if I stunted the northern lights plant or if she's just genetically shorter and bushier. I find myself popping my head in the tent to check on them enough that my husband walked by and said "I wish you loved me as much as you love your plants" 12/23 update. Unsure what my leaves are trying to tell me. Soil felt a little dry so I took the opportunity for a pH balanced fairly heavy watering, no nutrients this feed. Maybe a salt build up since I've been giving light nutes with every feed? Last flush earlier this week with solid pH on the runoff, so maybe not. Maybe just too much nutrients in general. I'll back off for a bit and see how she does. 12/26 update: lemon auto is getting light burned AF. Wound up rearranging the light situation to take her farther away from the light, but still within it to get enough light for some (hopefully) dense buds. I think a bigger tent is in my future. Feeding every other, otherwise getting pH balanced water

Started flushing however acting on more experienced advice going to refeed and continue bloom for a while longer. Buds are really solid compared to previous grows. Really excited to do final weigh in at the end of this grow and only want to beat my personal best for weight. Hope the 5 days of flushing didn't hurt her too much as leaves have become a little brittle from over watering.

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Week 1: The Verdant Odyssey Begins Greetings, fellow cultivators and horticultural aficionados! Our Apolo F1 has successfully sprouted its green wings and embarked on the adventurous journey of vegetative growth. Strap in for a thrilling week 1 report that's as lush and comprehensive as the foliage we're nurturing. This week, our verdant hero underwent a transplant into a tiny pot filled with a soil and Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. Now, let's delve into the magical world of Mycor Mix. Picture this mix as the Avengers of the soil, with various species of endomycorrhizae joining forces. They're fixed on a vegetal carrier, not unlike a botanical superhero's ride, feeding and protecting these fungi, ensuring they're ready to go to work for our Apolo F1. Now, let's talk watering – a crucial aspect of our plant's well-being. Here, I turn to my trusty sponsors, Aptus Holland, for their nutrient line. The star of the show this week is Regulator, a concoction containing Mono-silicic acid (Si), Boron (B), and Molybdenum (Mo). Si acts as a nutrient transporter, while B enhances calcium uptake and fiber production. Meanwhile, Mo plays the role of a botanical Uber, moving nitrogen from lower to upper leaves with finesse. But that's not all – our plant's diet includes CaMg-Boost, a luxurious 0.5ml/l concoction. This organo-mineral plant booster is the VIP treatment for preventing calcium and magnesium deficiencies, ensuring our Apolo F1 develops powerful fruit set and reaches the pinnacle of quality. The nutrient symphony continues with All-in-One Liquid, a 100% mineral-based fertilizer that's the maestro of all mediums and systems. Its unique manufacturing process renders it pH-variation insensitive, a testament to its resilience in a wide pH-range throughout the vegetative phase to flowering/maturation. And let's not forget the organic touch with Startbooster at 0.25ml/l – the secret sauce for stimulating root system development and vegetative growth. It's like giving our Apolo F1 a botanical energy drink, ensuring it's in top form for the journey ahead. Our green prodigy is currently basking under the protective dome, a symbol of pride in this early stage of growth. It's like watching a seedling transform into a robust plant, and I couldn't be prouder. Before we wrap up this week's report, I must extend a heartfelt shoutout to @James and Royal Queen Seeds for blessing me with the Apolo F1, to Aptus Holland for being the guardians of my plant's nutrition, and to Grow Diaries for providing the digital amphitheater where our horticultural exploits can unfold. Stay tuned for more chapters in our Apolo F1 Mission Diary – where we'll witness the magic of botanical alchemy and the evolution of our green companion. Happy growing, fellow cultivators!

Todays the day! I actually probably waited to long. I shoulda done it earlier, but we will see how a little LST goes on these units! Lemme work my courage up to it with a few beers. Will post pics! _____________________________________________________________________________________________ I think LST went well. I grasp better the point to LST and how its pulling everything to an even canopy level. I think I did it pretty well, but now I see why you might start it earlier to get those main stems down more. I still don't understand which branches would be better to cut now, I will try to follow how they grow so I can "control" better what is growing. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Another small victory was that the runoff PH was 6.1! Exactly where I want it to be! And I noticed roots growing down at the base of the air-pots so the root-ball has encompassed the whole area! I wasn't sure where the roots where in development. I'm very happy to get LST going, and I'm excited to see these bad-boys pop back!!! __________________________________________________________________________________________ Things look great by the middle of Week 3! the LST went pretty well and they rebounded nicely. I decided to push my luck tonight and after tucking a bunch of leaves decided to adjust the main stalk on a plant and snapped the main stem halfway. I've been assured thinks will be ok, but i'm still mad at myself for forcing it. Gotta be gentle! Will have to watch and see what happens there 😭. I also decided tonight to give the girls some nutrients along with their supplements. easing in to things with 1ml of the GH trio to kick things off a bit earlier than I planned.... Gonna be interesting to see how they take it! So much suspense for the coming days!!!!! ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Thur I went in and removed a couple fan leaves that were blocking nodes. I notice that there is a bit of nitrogen in the leaves so I think Floragrow might have been too much, It might just be best to wait and just add bloom instead. I will monitor... The split stem also seemed to not slow the plant down at all and things have bouced back nicely and everything seems to be on track!

the girl went to the tent on the 69th, they predict very bad weather, which would probably cause her to rot, I will try to finish the growth in the tent, she has 14 days left and will be cut, I am going on vacation, so I am forced to do it a little earlier... In general, the girl is very it's healthy, it barely fit in the tent, so a fair amount of leaves were stuck to the edges of the tent, I've never seen anything like it, that people carry from nature to the tent - and not from it to nature :D it will be interesting to see how it all ends :) good luck:)

D21 - Last girl standing. She may be all alone in the tent, but she is thriving and looking healthy, and I hope to have another girl soon to keep her company. I gave her about 0.5 liters of water @ pH 6.1. D24 - The girl is thriving: 12 cm tall, 24 cm wide. Short and stocky like Cartman. I switched the light from about 40% to 60% yesterday, and I'm now reading around 500-600 PPFD at the canopy level. On the high end for sure, so let's see how she handles it. However, the daytime temp in the tent jumped up to around 30 degrees C after I switched the light. #tinytentproblems D24 (part 2) - Alright, it's only been a few hours, but it is clear that she REALLY didn't enjoy that sudden increase in photons. After some hours under the more intense light, I checked on her, and she displayed several signs of light stress, such as her leaf edges curling upward ("taco"-ing) while the whole leaf was drooping. Clearly, she wasn't happy, so I dimmed the light until I saw around 430 PPFD at the canopy level. She is "sleeping" now, but I will check on her tomorrow to see how she reacts. D27 - Today was the last day in week three of veg. I think she is already going into pre-flower, and she already has a faint smell to her. She is 16 cm tall and 28 cm wide. I haven't trained her yet but will start doing some LST next week. I also started brewing compost tea (worm castings, neem meal, kelp meal, biochar, rock dust, algal limestone, bentonite, and molasses) which I will leave overnight and feed to her tomorrow.
