-Sunday September 8 switch to 12 12 -Defolition on the bottoms at F1, re-shave at F6. -Hung up a charcoal filter and exausting via a window -RLF down @50% -Light is up to 80% to reduce stretch and we are at around 1000 PPFD at canopy level now. 60x60cm tent used for my cuttings (I hope they survive, my cuttings have a high mortality) + a male in there that I don't want to flower while I have the Kalis flowering. The lights are just 4x e27 at around 30W total. The idea is to keep plants in veg there. Needs a fan to stay cool but fairly cheap solution.

Both are still growing healthy beautiful buds but like the rest of the tent, they were a little burned this week. I dimmed down the light. That helped with the temperature as well.

Adding SLF 100 and Calmag to feeding. Although everything seems good, I'm going from tap to RO to have maximum control over my PPMs or TDS. Buds are really developing nice and she is still stretching. I appreciate any suggestions. ( Running CalMag, Photosynthesis Plus, and SLF 100)

The weather is cold and wet. 12 to 18 degrees celcius

We noticed some bleaching this week on a few of the higher tops and decided to move the MarsHydro again, from 18"to 20" this time..We underestimated how powerful this light actually is.. We no longer have access to a functioning PAR meter so we're relying exclusively on plant response, Google and some guess work to dial ...High light intensity definitely explains why we've been feeding these autos so much lol.. I'm glad we caught this when we did. We gave all plants another moderate feeding after moving the light (still waiting on a calmag re-up) , but I think they'll be just fine 😺👌.. we're hoping that 20" in flower might be the sweet spot..We truly have an autoflower curse, its real, anything that can go wrong typically does lol but it should be smooth sailing from here on out..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests everyone! ⚡Mars Hydro/SP-3000⚡ Specifications ⚙️: Diodes: Samsung LM301B / Osram 660nm (960 total!)

Coming along I guess,like watching paint dry.But hey that's outdoor

Sprinkle with Kraft to add nutrients and spray the leaves with Epsom salt. The second bed of leaves is starting to recover from the magnesium deficiency.

SD2 has/had nutrient burn. I will water her till run off to lower the run off ppm

6. Woche Die Ladys beginnen jetzt langsam mit dem Einleiten der Bloom. Denke in den nächsten Tagen sieht man schon ein bisschen mehr. Ich stelle die Woche über laufend neue Bilder rein und Update den Kommentar, also schaut gerne wieder rein 😃

Second week, everything is going well, lst adjusment and light defoliation

13hrs 33 mins daylight as of 8/27 when I took these pics and video Euphoria is doing just fine, as I say in the video and repeat myself several times with other phrases, so I apologize but I honestly couldn't think of much else to say. I may have had issues with Euphoria early on, but it seemed like once I got her in the ground she just flourished and has been drama-free since (knock on wood). She's just doing fantastic🙌 Otherwise, the days are cooling off, the relentless humidity we've had for the past few weeks is moving out and I am very much looking forward to September. Those cool crisp nights, the colors starting to change, the flowers plumping up with crystalline trichomes and the smell... Oh the smell! I do love harvest season!

Had an unexpected 50 mph thunderstorm strike last Tuesday. It broke one Sour Strawberry plant in half. The RuntzLayerCake was bent over thirty degrees. Many limbs broken and bent on the plants. I had to duct tape several main stems as you’ll see in the video. The four caged plants proved stability for the others. Second grow. Lesson learned. All the plants are now trussed with string and are very healthy. Thanks for looking in this week, and let me know your thoughts.

*Increased ppm from 1050 to 1100. *seems like this might be a 9 week strain or maybe 10. *not a lot of resin production, but flower stacking is long on this one.

Lowered lights to 50% and raised them to 26 in.

Hey guys, sorry just another quick Update for you as I’m still busy.. Last week will be a little more Detailled, promise. Quick video for you from 09.12; on day 52 of bloom, just dialled the Fade in - the BBc started fading even without the Athena. Let’s hope for some flawless last weeks.

So week 8 was definitely a trying one. I was coming off of not only being behind on food from a couple weeks back, but also having a soil pH problem at same time. So I fed them a couple weeks back, found the pH issue and flushed with proper pH water. However, some of the damage and deficiency signs were still hanging around. I decided to give them each a top dressing of 6 tbsp's of 2-8-4 power bloom, in case I washed a lot out during the flush. At the same time, continuing to water at a lower pH of 6.0-6.5 to encourage my soil to go back to an optimal level. On the soil pH tester they are all sitting from 6.6-6.8 pH currently. Which was a lot better than the 7+ I found during the issue. These girls are growing big and are constantly hungry for water and nutrients. The amount of leaves on this strain was quite impressive. On that note, I had to do a lot of defoliation at the end of week 8. Hoping to encourage longer bigger colas and allowing light to penetrate to lower canopy. Plan is to keep watering when dry, adjust LST as the weeks go along, and defoliate where necessary. I do apologize to Dutch Passion, as I feel I've done them a disservice with my issues this time around. So if the result of this strain from me is sub par, it would not be the strain at this point. But I will continue to do my best to make a good result!👊 Happy growing! P.S. forgot I named them to track their health. Big Red, Stubby and Corona Virus. Big Red is largest but has red stems and leaf discoloration. Corona Virus is like Big Red but more leaf issues and Stubby is shortest one but by far healthiest so far.
