This lady started growing like crazy. She's become really bushy and quite tall, with side branches being mostly equally high all over the plant. Flowers starting to develop well, but smell stays on the weak side. I'm expecting her to slow down and eventually stop growing over the next couple of days. Nutrient-wise I used more or less the same schedule as for my Northern Light lady, only did I now give her phosphorous grains at D7 already: * D7: 25g of organic granular phosphorus grains (bone meal) (6-16-0) * D20: 25g organic granular fertilizer (6-3-3) * D28: 35g organic granular fertilizer (6-3-3) * D35: 30g organic granular phosphorous grains (bone meal) (6-16-0) * D42: 20g of organic potassium grains (2-0-20) I'm really curious about how much (if any) she's still going to grow in size and how the buds will develop over the following weeks. Next few days, will be very warm and sunny!

After dry Maddie dry weight 126 grams, Tammy now in dry wet weight 815 grams Tammy yield dry 153 grams

Continued w/ the feeding schedule for this week. I used about 1.5-2 solo cups of water for this 1 gal fabric pot. Just enough to have the coco wet.

Day 69 of flowering and still looking for the elusive Amber trichromes, they are 90% cloudy no amber 10% clear I will patiently wait I want to experience the more indica feel with these last few choice buds. Update Oct 19th 2017. Seen my first amber trich today, as I'm getting older I can't see through my loupe to view resin glands, so my wife showed me how too view them through pictures. All I can say is wow! She was able to zoom right in on them to get a good look. Maybe I will have to get a computer to show these fantastic shots I will uploaded ASAP YOU HAVE got to see them gorgeous girls see ya soon peace and love my brothers.

Plants are doing well. I'm going to top them soon. I tend to wait on topping to reduce stress, you never want to remove more that 1/3 of the plant( to each their own). I'll be FIMing the Sensi Star and Topping the Peyote. Pretty sure I stunted the White Widow from exposing it to the cold snap we had back in late February. I will top it and try and clone off the topping and see if that clone takes off. In my past I cloned plants outside in Mid June back in 2012 on 5 foot Agent Oranges, those clones caught up to the plants outside and eventually outperformed them, in less than two months. Never would have found that out if I didn't try. Happy growing everyone!

Done with drying, I cut her bud sites and placed them into a mason jar. I bought the boveda packs that are 62% RH. Now time to sit and wait 2-3 weeks and see what the finished product is like. Again everyone thank you for watching the grow up! 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I do have another diary with 5 auto berry’s, if anyone would like to continue watching the grow up. 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I have a lot more confidence in the autos just because this grow was my first time grow. Now I know the basics and everything else on what to do, so better and bigger buds on my next grow. ✊🏾😎

This week has been a very great experience sour kush a is responding so well to nutes and training just removing older fan leaves. The stocks are growing thicc.

Girls are still growing smoothly 👍🏼 had zero issues this grow except crazy growth although I don't think that's a bad thing👌🏼 had to give another trim and gave them a tuck under just one more time! Hoping that these next couple of weeks run smoothly 🤘🏼 Nothing else to report surprisingly been a super easy grow! Happy growing ✌️🏼️🍁

The plant on the right got chopped down the hairs were 90% dark brown while left was fully white last week when it got taken down it had only one day flush. This plant I will flush for a week and see which is better. It has decent size buds all the way to the bottom but this one growing still doesn't have as many crystals as the harvested plant which was definitely cut down way to early 😕 shame it must have forced to finish early from shock when I snapped a main branch clean off. This plant I will flush with plain filtered water for 7 days and even if it doesn't have as much crystals as the other plant, the bud size is 2x-3x the size of the plant that was cut down last week so I hope they will look a lot better size wise after they shrink when they are cut down and dried. I have also noticed some medium sized fan leads turning from green into a beautiful dark purple colour over the last 2-3 days slowly and it's spreading to other leaves the buds on this plant are also purple bits it's hard to see on here but looking sweet so far I have uploaded pic of the frost one which has been drying for a week now

Girls doing well but have run into some calcium deficiency which will hopefully be fixed soon.

03/12 - Day 68 Girls are putting out some really nice aromas! I’m assuming this is the last push for this strain, buds are really tight and super hard when squeezed on (B) & (C) All around the trichomes are still pretty clear and no amber yet.

Not much happening yet but still she's looking good .

07/13/2022 watering 1.67l for each plants (root 1-grow 1.2-bloom 0.4 [ml/l]) 07/16/2022 watering 1.5l for each plants without nutrient 07/18/2022 defoliation watering 1.67l for each plants (root 0.5-grow 1.2-bloom 0.7 [ml/l])

Nice growth out of these girls in their first 9 days above soil. The Dinafem Critical+ is larger out of the gate, but the Blackberry is showing signs of catching up towards the end of the week. I also notice twisted/wrinkled looking leaves on the Blackberry, but that seems to be common with purple strains at this age. They did need a little water near the end of the week, I added some Recharge to the water and the next day I saw noticeable growth in both girls. It could be coincidence since rapid growth at this age is expected, but I've never had any bad experiences with Recharge. Looking forward to the progress this upcoming week! Keep on growing!!!

Update: 5 weeks of flowering complete. Gorilla widow started to hermie a bit on the bottom. I made the mistake of not removing enough popcorn buds and they didn’t get any light. I cut them all off the plant and now hoping it doesn’t hermie the rest of plant due to shock. We shall see, no big deal tho. The bigger deal... stayed at my Gf place from Friday- Sunday came back Sunday to find out the ballast for 1000watt had died!!! Ordered a new ballast and it will be here by Wednesday. For now I’m using an old 600 watt cool tube.

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️
