Week 7- Day 1 of Veg (Day 59 overall)
Water Change Day!!!
Water was really low it was just above the hump in the Res cutting it close to not having enough water in the system to keep it going. They drank a lot making it close going the full 14 days. I am still going with the previous grows and adding 36 Gallons but even looking at the root I think the SILICA is working and the roots are further along at this point than in previous grows. This next two weeks will watch how much they drink and how low my Res starts getting, and will make a decision on changing the water weekly from here on out or still keep on the plan of every other week until Week 4 of Flower.
Added 36 Gallons
Mammoth SILICA= .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil
CALMAG= .5Mil/Gal = 18Mil
Root Drip= 1Mil/Gal = 36Mil
FloraMicro = 5.4Mil/Gal = 194Mil
FloraGrow = 4.2Mil/Gal = 151Mil
FloraBloom = 4.6Mil/Gal = 166Mil
ORCA = .5Mil/Gal =18Mil
PPM= 536
PH=5.84
PPFD=500
Tent Temp= 76.5
Water Temp= 71.4
Humidity= 58%
4/2/2023
Week 7- Day 2 of Veg (Day 60 overall)
Not much today, PH was at 5.81, I brought that back up to 5.90. I took care of some badly needed defoliation in each of the back sides .. I was able to see some really good clone material to use on the lower backside of each of the plants. I will be taking two clones from each to breed over the next few weeks depending on when I am going to flip them.
4/3/2023
Week 7- Day 3 of Veg (Day 61 overall)
A little FIMing, A little Topping, and a Little bit of defoliation.
Might have to take my clones during the week this week, I am trying to wait until Saturday to hit week 8 but again they are getting all over the place and I need to trim some of the sides and lower areas.
4/4/2023
Week 7- Day 4 of Veg (Day 62 overall)
I decided to take my clones and clean up the lower half of the plants. I took 2 clones from each plant to go into the cloning machine.
4/5/2023
Week 7- Day 5 of Veg (Day 63 overall)
Water Temp is sitting at 73. Right in my ideal range for my setup.
Ideal range 70-74
My Temp Tent is my ideal zone75.6
Ideal for this grow 70-78
The lights are still waiting the switch to flower to get maxed out...
The Humidity is coming in right at 60% I love it..
I took so much off yesterday I figure it was a good day to let them rest.
4/6/2023
Week 7- Day 6 of Veg (Day 64 overall)
I needed to Defoliate some and I topped a little. The plants might force me to flip them soon. Next Wed is the 10 week mark half way through the 20 weeks. The net is Bingo... Which means that If/when the plants hit the net I will have to flip them. The Net is set to the max height that I can let them get based on the Breeders Stretch report 75%.
4/7/2023
Week 7- Day 7 of Veg (Day 65 overall)
#3 is 22 inches Tall, #2 is 19 Inches Tall.
Net is set at 24 inches. Net is also set as my Bingo point, if they hit the net then I have to flip no matter what to account for the Breeders recommended 75% Stretch allowance. I think I am going to have to flip right at the 10 week mark of the Competition which is Wed 12 Apr.
I topped a little, I de-foliated a lot to start getting it ready for the anticipated Flip.

This week we moved the plants to a more secluded location, which was easier with small autopots. Leveling and terracing the equipment was a pain. I put individual 6 gallon reservoirs for each plant. This allows me about three days before filling up the reservoirs.
The biggest problem again was the plants falling over because of wind.
They have hit the ground over 20 times, maybe thirty. Each time this dumps the reservoir, so I had to make a ton of water this week. But they keep chugging along.
I staked and wired them down and so far so good for three days.
The plants are big, with my biggest being 7 1/2 to 8 feet tall. They have mostly recovered from falling over so many times. The branches have hardened so I can’t really stretch out the branches anymore. They’re tighter than I planned….
Flowering has started and should start stacking up on one or two of the plants next week. I’m just running Jack’s RO for weeks 4 to 8. I may start with some fulvic and humic acid soon.
Best of luck on your grow.

Hello, everyone. I want to inform you that the week went well. I noticed that the stems at the bottom, closer to the pot, are thinner, while the stems higher up, closer to the top, are thicker. We acquired supports for our girl due to her height. Because of the height, she was too close to the lamp, and I don't know how it will affect her in the future. We'll hope for the best. We fixed the mistake. The lamp was 5 cm from the top in some places. Now it's 30 cm. Thanks to everyone who reads my updates, follows the diary, and gives likes – you're awesome.

They were growing a little bit laggy because they didn't geht enough light.
I planted them so deep in the ground that they're not laggy anymore. Now my ladies getting enough light to grow strong ;)
Hopefully the temperatures stay above 32 °F/ 0°C.

In the last two weeks she has been flushed with phd balanced water 💦. Her bracts seemed to have fully swelled her ratio of trichomes was well over 30% amber she was beginning to fade so that’s when I decided she can’t go any further. She is emitting a deep dank musky toffee aroma the Double kush cake feminised bracts give off a tinted silver look. A true AfghanI kush appearance. The Double kush cake feminised finished at a height of approximately 62cm

Heute gab es wieder Nährstoffe
Hesi Blüh Complex 5ml/L, Hesi Phosphor Plus 2,5ml/L, Hesi PowerZyme 2ml/L.
Ihre Wasser Aufnahme hat sich deutlich erhöht.
Ab BT# 45 werde ich alle Nährstoffe langsam runter fahren das ich die letzte Woche nur noch Ph angeglichenes Wasser verabreiche.
Dann geht es für 2 Tage in die Dunkelkammer danach Erfolgt der Cut🙂
Fand den Grow sehr sehr entspannt definitiv ein Strain für Beginner der euch einiges verzeihen wird , sehr resistent gegen Krankheiten oder Schädlingsbefall.
Jetzt geht es langsam in die Heiße Phase ab BT#50 wird das Taschenmicroskope gezückt die Tricome mal abchecken und immer regelmäßiger schauen wie sie sich verändern.
Jetzt freuen wir uns auf die nächste Woche mit neuen Updates bleibt Gesund and Stay high.

Good evening dear Growmie's ✌️
Here I am again with Caramba from Paradise Seeds. We are now on day 41 of flowering and the lady is doing very well, with the buds taking shape.
Today she received nutrients again
Hesi Bloom Complex 5ml/L, Hesi Phosphor Plus 2.5ml/L, Hesi PowerZyme 2ml/L.
Her water intake has increased significantly.
Starting with BT# 45, I will slowly reduce all nutrients so that I only administer pH-adjusted water during the last week.
Then it's off to the darkroom for 2 days, followed by the cut 🙂.
I found the grow very, very relaxed. Definitely a strain for beginners that will forgive you a lot, very resistant to disease or pest infestation.
Now we are slowly entering the hot phase. From BT#50, we will pull out the pocket microscope to check the trichomes and look more and more regularly to see how they are changing.
Now we are looking forward to next week with new updates. Stay healthy and stay high.
May all your ladies grow healthy and magnificent and provide you with tasty stuff 😁

The Pineapple Express is ready to come out soon and has started her flush with crystal clear , it tastes as good as it looks , I’ve pulled a bit more off to smoke ( the last pic ) . She’s got some purple coming out and is absolutely stacked in trichomes and sticky to the touch .
The Gorilla Zkittles is another 2 weeks behind and will love getting the place to herself next week , she’s so stinky it burns your nose but every now and then that fruit orchards smell will come thru , she’s starting to fill out nicely and is standing a bit over 1.2 metres, I’ll spread her out some next week when I have the space and keep feeding her for another two weeks .
For now it’s drier sheets at the exhaust vent and and giving these two a great finish.

All nutrition comes to an end. They are now rinsed for a few more weeks. Just a little longer and then they can be harvested. The pineapple poison and lava freeze have beautiful colors. 😁

She is still alive and kicking.
It smells amazing and looks awesome!
She won’t be getting much of anything except for water for the rest of the time, not that she’s gotten much anyways.
I’m just waiting for her to tell me she’s done.
It’s almost harvest time!!!

An extremely vigorous girl performing well to this point in hydro. I did a bucket change out week two of grow and honestly hasn't needed any additional nutrients other than topping with fresh RO water w/cal-mag. I topped her beginning of week 4 and now as of this writing gave her a defoliation at base of plant for aeration and applied a bit of LST. We'll continue to monitor ph daily to minimize potential swings.
Midweek 4 update - Top off about 3/4 gallon of ph'd (5.5) RO water w/nutrients and cal-mag at a range of 625-630 ppm. TKO just continues to impress me a hydro newbie, but impressed non-the-less. There is approximately 24" of vertical grow space remaining, so the SCROG net is going up, which means the other struggling 5 gal hydro bucket with Ethos Punchberry Cookies will have to move to the 3x3 tent. I'll move two 3 gal Gelato strains into the 2x4 AC Infinity along with the TKO and prepare for final week or two of veg before flipping to 12/12.

All plants have been chopped down now. Will switch over to harvest on here once these last plants finish drying. Then I can get a full harvest weight of everything.
2 weeks of curing for the first harvest. It is a very fruity smoke. Very sativa high but also a heavy body high. No sleepies or dry mouth. Really enjoying the strain. If I had to guess, I'd say we should be over 2 pounds.

Explosion part 3!
This plant is considered Autoflowering, but I would say is most likely a regular one!
She is just HUUUGE, hopefully I was able to stop her growing but side branches reached the 83cm and almost touching the LED...
I've introduced Bloombastic (0.5ml per liter) and I will gradually increase till 1.5ml per liter and stop when will be time to flush.
Buds are getting bigger but I'm thinking that she will need at least 3 more full weeks... Hopefully with some good results at the end!
I obligatory defoliated her and also removed some small side branches, without any stress encountered.
I'll keep you guys posted, stay tuned, stay high!
