I was still seeing strange things happen in the leaves but runoff pH was staying at around 6.5. One plant toppled over and started growing up from a bent stalk like an herb. I started looking for a new reflector so that I could mount my light horizontally instead of vertically to save space and ideally find a way to get the plants closer to the light without burning them. I started looking into MH bulbs as well as I figured at this point I clearly hadn't provided the light they needed. If I wanted them to thrive I needed to set them up properly for the last few weeks of veg. I transplanted this week into slightly bigger coco pots but in retrospect I feel I should have gone up to 3 gallon pots at this point.

Start week 6 of bloomingToday 11.3. I had to pour 6 liters of clean water over it. 1500ml (leaked out) 76. day of grow 36. day of bloom but not sure I think I started counting the blooming before they actually started blooming. All of pohotos is acutal from today

1 of the bubba kush & 2 of the gorilla zkittlez are a little behind but over all everything seems to be going good so far! Day 10 update transplanted all the ones in smaller pots to 5 gallon pots except 1 of the bubba Kush it still needs a few more days! Everything else seems to be going great!

Lover her fruity smells 😍😍 Starting to develop some early trichoms 😍😍😍🤤🤤

Plants are currently drying 2+ months later. And next project au79

things are getting out of control. finally seeing signs of flowering. water every 3 days or say about 2 gal. each will top dress with some more 2-8-4 in a couple weeks

Hi All, The week was pretty uneventful, the plant is developing nicely. I removed a leave here and there to make sure maximum light exposure in the middle of the canopy is guaranteed. The buds stopped stretching so I’ll will stop with the boost and add the pk 13/14 to help with the fattening. Dried and smoked a few of the lowest popcorn buds and they are by all means not there, but smell and taste pretty awesome. I have also added a few pictures of the new box that I have built for the cuttings. The box was build pretty low budget, however I will still need to add a better light source as I am currently running on only 60W veg lights. Was planning to buy the Greenception GCx5solo 150W full spectrum LED, as it would fit exactly Inside the box.

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

Almost doubled her height this week!!!!!! Growing as well as she can. Getting quite rootbound in the cup. I'm thinking she will enter flowering in the coming week.

So this is how things are looking for the ladies at the end of Week 5 of Flower, I have uploaded a video for you guys with all the information, any questions just ask away 👍🏾👊🏾😎

Commune soo.

Hola tod@s, pues aquí tenéis las RQS North Thunderfuck Como podéis ver en las imagenes están a tope, el resultado de las podas no puede haber sido mejor, plantas compactas con 3 - 4 colas principales, pues al hacer la poda apical las ramas inferiores han alcanzado la altura de las principales. Al final no las trasplante a 11l, no quería que se hiciesen demasiado grandes para que tuviesen más espacio entre ellas y así fomentar la circulación de aire para evitar el oidio, en los últimos días ha estado lloviendo y como os he comentado en otras entradas, a no ser que tengas una sala de cultivo con opticlimate o te hallas gastado mucho dinero en aislamientos y equipo, el clima de fuera afecta al interior también. Lo mejor es usar preventivos, así se evitan las sorpresas indeseadas. Pronto empezarán a asomar los primeros pistilos blancos, iré subiendo la EC poco a poco, en esta ocasión creo que podré subir un poco más, esta variedad es una comilona de cuidado, así que llegaré a los 1.9 - 2.0 de EC. Hace tiempo que buscaba una variedad que reaccionase así a las podas, al tener las ramas casi todas a la misma altura recibiran mucha más luz y más tratandose de iluminación LED que penetra menos que otro tipo de iluminaciones, lo cuál debe traducirse en una mejor producción. he realizado una última poda de bajos, ya no podré hacer más, para estimular el crecimiento de las ramas superiores, aparte en estas variedades de hoja tan ancha hay que quitar bastante, sin miedo, por la misma razón que comentaba antes de la penetración de luz. Espero que todo siga así y pronto empezarán a tener las primeras flores, saludos!!! 😃

Sexta semana, fiz um flush nos vasos mais queimados, as outras plantas apresentam deficiência de magnésio também, segue sexta semana de flora e apesar dos problemas as flores tão bem resinadas, vou aplicar flowermind essa semana e ver se melhora. Obrigado por

The Lady with some other girls 😜 ...

Ehi ragazzi come va?? La settimana della ragazza è trascorsa bene, si vede che la genetica e pregiata xké nonostante il poco spazio si sta sviluppando e acquistando spazio dalle altre piante ,quindi vuol dire che sta davvero bene, le foglie sono grandi a ventaglio corpose tipiche dei fenotipi principalmente indica , anche il fusto è davvero in espansione ,ad ogni internodo il volume aumenta esponenzialmente! Mi aspetto una weeda spaziale da questa ragazza vincitrice degli ultimissimi premi come migliore hibrido indica! Complimenti a Fastbuds! Tutto questo non sarebbe possibile se non ci fosse la luce Mars hydro che mi dà la possibilità di avere la stessa intensità di luce, e si vede con la crescita uniforme della ragazza ,nonostante la pianta sia relegata in un piccolo spazio di lato! Impressionante FC E3000 non smette mai di stupirmi!! Spero continui così! Buon 420 a tutti! 🐱😼😽❤️❤️🧙‍♂️✨🌿🌲💨💪

The room is short of Space, but buds are well growing. I had yellow marks starting on the leaves and I decided to add a bit of calmag, it looks like it might be good. I had to cut off few leaves, and I have reorganize the disposition a bit for more homogeneity. All looks good.

Hello everyone, my friends! this week we will do more with the rinsing of the roots, waiting for these magical nuggets to swell even more 😉🍭

Muy buenos humos a tod@s… Las plantas avanzan bien pero no como nos esperábamos. Alguna de ellas nos está dando problemitas por falta de agua o de nutrientes, no queremos excedernos debido a experiencias pasadas pero tememos quedarnos cortos. En el último riego no hemos aumentado los nutrientes si no que hemos vuelto a las bases anteriores ya que conocemos cómo funcionan y queremos ver cómo responden. No sabemos el porqué pero hay dosa que está como cogollando y eso es curioso, una fast de sweet, pero como hemos dicho en semanas anteriores no somos expertos solo queremos ver crecer las plantas y es algo que nos gusta mucho pero cada planta es un mundo y reacciona de distinta manera aunque llevemos el control de riegos y de más, cada una es diferente, y eso es muy bueno… 😎 Los riegos están siendo estables y hemos aumentado la cantidad de agua, pasando de 300ml a 350 ml, debido a la demanda de las plantas. El agua la estamos manteniendo siempre a un pH de 6,0. En general estamos contentos con la evolución. Pero pendientes de ver su evolución para controlarlas y mejorarlas. Hasta la semana que viene que volveremos con más avances ( dudas y problemas 😜) SALUDOS PARA TOD@S🌱💀💨

4/13 11AM MONDAY RQS Gelatto 44 and Punch Pie Tyson 2.0 are Finished!!! I will let them go a couple weeks longer but they are good to go! 9/10 Srong, good in coco/ no problems at all! MONTEL DREAM WIDOW 11/10 ANOTHER WINNER!! So much resin, AMAZING BUDS SHAPED LIKE SPIDERS...SO GREAT. My ICE t is a little small, I didnt have enough space so she stayed compact and perfect small. Bubbles, Julinan and Ricky are doing better than ever 4/14 4:09 AM I just had an idea flash for my next grow so I need to make some notes. I have a cutting I took from a gorilla gas F1 fast flower by seedsmen I did it last year. I took the cutting when she was in flower. I put her in an organic grow plug that I got from seats man as well and I tortured her and I forgot to water it and I left it in there and then I put her in 1 gallon and I haven’t tried to do anything but she survived everything so I’m gonna grow her out into a full-size plant. I’ll probably put it in a bigger pot and do a small smaller grow not so many plants next time I think she’ll really be something. 4/14 1;23pm I turned the light up to 114 W and I’m just under 120. I’m trying to feel the driver and keep it cool so it doesn’t heat the room up. I have some plants in there that I didn’t veg right so they’re kind of screwed up and I have too many of them. I’m gonna have to take some down. The extra plants are preventing the better plants from growing so my experiment making my own seeds, it actually worked, but it’s still not as good as getting it from the actual breeders. And I have a series of medical problems that disable me for several days at a time so plans not look good and then I get behind a little bit so that. 4/18 1:30 PM I used FloraKlean and did a heavy flush on the Tyson plants gelato 44 and punch pie. I also used a little bit of it on the Montell Williams plant, which is amazing. Montel‘s dream widow is just incredible and she’s growing in an unusually small container and doing very well corkscrew auto however, was not an auto flower from Royal Queen seeds, but she’s behaving like a normal photo and her color is going great so even though it’s not an auto at 12:12 she did develop photo traits and is going to grow very successfully. I think as a photo she’s doing really good and I have a bubbles blueberry in there. I grew her terribly so she’s not doing as good as she could, but that’s on me. 4/19 11:30PM. Thinking of flushing the Tyson Plants in the Tub....THEN I thought, why not do a Doors movie ending?? Film the plants dead in the bathtub...the Jim Morrison ending!!!!! BUT then I would have to make that stupid white and red bead necklace he wore on that album cover...and the bead work alone would take me 6 months....so maybe. ALSO I would have to learn to play "The END" on out of tune recorder or kazoo, something deep and dramatic

5/23/21 - First day of flower. In the pictures we did a flush on both plants and let all the runoff stop. We cut off the small, insignificant grow sites so the upper big flowers bud. We put the plants back in the closet after flush and changed the light to a 12/12 cycle. 5/24/21 - The soil is still pretty wet from the flush so I didn’t feed today. They are looking good! 5/25/21 - Watered with the nutrients today. They are looking good. A couple weeks and the flowers should open. 5/26/21 - Fed with nutrients as I will everyday until flush. They are responding to the bloom light and light schedule. 5/27/21 - Fed them today. See pictures. They are looking good! I might lower the light some more and see how they do. 5/28/21 - Watered with the nutrients. The plants are slowly opening up. It’s exciting to see. The smell is normal now. 5/29/21 - Fed both plants today. They are drinking a lot more. Tomorrow will be week 2 of flower :)
