🌱 Grow Diary – Week 11 Veg
Week 11 of veg, and the plant is finally settling into a steady rhythm again. After last week’s defoliation and topping, she’s been taking her time to bounce back, and this week you can see clear signs of recovery. Growth is coming back with energy, not explosive, but steady and healthy.
Right now, there are eight new apex sites forming nicely. I’m considering topping again, but that’s still undecided—I’d rather let her keep pushing forward for a while before making that call. For now, she’s cruising.
The main focus this week is on stability. pH has been kept between 5.9 and 6, and that seems to be working well. Temperatures are holding steady at 22–23°C, with relative humidity around 70%. These conditions feel just right for recovery and steady growth heading into autumn.
On the branch I taped after it cracked during training, the healing seems to be going fine. I haven’t fully checked under the tape yet, but from the look of things, it should be on track, and I’ll likely remove it next week.
It’s a bit frustrating that we lost some valuable time in the early stages, but over the past few weeks the plant has definitely been getting back on track. The color looks healthy, growth is steady, and overall she’s moving in the right direction again.
So, Week 11 is about patience, observation, and keeping everything dialed in. No big changes, just letting her recover and stack energy for what’s next.

Still swelling but starting to slow down and swagger. It's kolas are becoming so large that it's really starting to weight down the plants small height and stature.
Trying to get away with not holding it up but I will see how the further biggest kola starts to lower more how it'll end.
I'm starting to lower the feed and get ready for the last 3-4 weeks I'll be giving these plants.
Some more foliage will be removed eventually in the coming weeks and also I'll start to change the feed up a little.
You can really see the difference in the two phenos. One's a lot like a leafy gelato and the other is OG all the way with great dense kolas. I'm expecting the Gelato type pheno to take 9-10 weeks and the OG one seems to be showing it's age more rapidly with it's pistil development and colour change beginning to start while the other seems untouched and continues to shoot newer whiter pistils!

Not a bad week. Left unattended with nutrient feed. One got slightly over watered ,so I removed water line for a day or two to let it dry down.
PH perfect nutrients really make it easy to have a low maintenance grow.
Going to let them be for another week while I decided if I want to top or just tie down.
Will update pictures and such as the week progresses.

Day one of Early Veg For these Hydroponic systems.
.
.
.
The water pump for the aeroponic system was blocked from running.
.
.
We adjusted some materials for the system to work more effectively.
.
.
.
Due to the water pump running without a chiller, the water temp was at 33C which is much too high.
.
.
.
We set the pump on a timer that will turn on for 15 minutes every hour.
.
.
.
We also turned on the AC to cool down the room.
.
.
.
Hopefully with all of this, the aeroponic system will be running with little to no problems

So this week i harvested the orangesherbert so sticky and stinks of orange, 50grams dry of 🔥 bud.
Curing in a big jar at 21 degrees and humidity of 60% dark cool cupboard.
Watermelon zkitles is bouncing back, the runts is doing amazing with the lst and leaf tucking.
I had to kill the purplelemonade due to it herming on me I dont have space for that so I'm going to run a ethos genetics seed in its place.

Papaya cookies are incredible! All the pistils turn purple, incredible beauty of this plant. We are so happy to have caught this extraordinary phenotype and are looking forward to an early harvest in about 2 weeks time.

Last final defoliation done, now buds are fully exposed to the lights and the best part, harvest trim will be easier. Still it took me around 8 h altogether to defoliate all of them. Tones of buds and frost , amazing smells. Won't rush will give it a bit more to swell.

This plant has a lot of history, because she started to bloom really really early on November 2022, but with no more than 3 cm 🙀 with some week of flowering, then she started to get on the vegetative phase again. After some week of vegetative phase, on Feb she started to bloom..
A sativa plant that took lots of week to finish his cycle of flowering... The wait was worth it.😈

Top leaves are turning yellow probably due to excess light and heat. Temperatures are very high above 30oC in southeastern Brazil. I increased the lighting distance 30cm from the top. QB LM301H 120W

Well had a lot of fun making my pot look amazing. There are some things hidden on here right now that will start to be reveled around weeks 4-6.
At that time I will add the rest of the pot for everyone to enjoy.
It's a fun one.
Soaked her in water for 24 hours then planted her right in the Fox Farm - Happy Frog soil. Hopefully in a few days she will POP!!
FYI the cover photo is of my wife's zombie corn tattoo. There is a reason for this. Will have to wait to see the surprise as to why it is relevant.
