Days 78-84 - Been lax in updates, but I still log every week to completion. Back injury in addition to The Nineteen, Rona Style, has been a bit of a pain in the posterior. (That means ass) Plants are gigantic and sassy. Had Dangergirl come out and defoliate/lollipop the bottoms out of the girls, saving me painful labor and increasing my yields, so yay for her! Plants are happy, pompoms are getting thick, and everything looks good. Switched FF01 to flower on day 84.

Daily reports: Day 1. • Watering: In - 6.1 pH 470 ppm (0.75 l); Out - 6.4 pH 871 ppm (0.4 l). • Stats: - Height - 10.0 cm (Bent) - Temp - 27.5 °C - Hum - 78% • Notes: My very first LST started! I hope it will increase Heracles strength and body mass 😤 Day 2. • Watering: DRY DAY • Stats: - Height - 9.5 cm (Bent) - Temp - 27.7 °C - Hum - 73% • Notes: Bent Heracles two times today, will not do it any more. When she will grow a bit more - I will bent the main stem round the pot, so there will be a lot of space for secondary stems in future. Also some space between the ground and the stem will be handier to handle the plant. Day 3. • Watering: DRY DAY • Notes: Found a signs of magnesium, I think it's enough of drying. Day 4. • Watering: In - 6.2 pH 504 ppm (0.75 l); Out - ??? pH ??? ppm (0.00 l). • Stats: - Height - 11.5 cm (Bent) - Temp - 29.1 °C - Hum - 78% • Notes: It's too hot and too wet for the plant. I have to do something with that. Two days without watering made no difference - the coco is still wet (pot is still heavy). No drainage after 0.75 mixture poured - I didn't expect that! Day 5. • Watering: Day: In - 6.1 pH 573 ppm (0.75 l); Out - ? pH ? ppm (0.? l). Night: In - 6.0 pH 573 ppm (1.0 l); Out - 6.2 pH 1020 ppm (0.75 l). • Stats: - Height - 11.5 cm (Bent) - Temp - 27 °C - Hum - 75% • Notes: Did another round of LST today (accidentally broke one fan leave). Fed right after that. Found a green mfucker and tried to kill it but now I can't find him and that sucks. Day 6. • Watering: In - 6.1 pH 921 ppm (0.5 l); Out - 6.6 pH 921 ppm (0.15 l). • Stats: - Height - 13.0 cm (Bent) - Temp - 27 °C - Hum - 70% • Notes: Bent Heracles one more time. Now it's 4 side stems bent, main stem bent as well and one side stem grows vertically. At least six separate stems, not bad for the first LST experience! But I hope there will be more before flowering. Day 7. • Watering: Day: In - 6.2 pH 974 ppm (0.5 l); Out - 6.5 pH 780 ppm (0.2 l). Night: In - 6.1 pH 1020 ppm (0.5 l); Out - 6.5 pH 874 ppm (0.15 l). • Stats: - Height - 12.0 cm (Bent) - Temp - 26.2 °C - Hum - 62%

Prima settimana di fioritura.spero di riuscire fino alla fine senza intoppi

Day 29 29/07/24 Monday Nice feeding today with De-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Gave her 300 ml and she had a small run off. Getting chunky in the stem now 💪💚 Day 31 31/07/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated water pH 6 today with Plagron pk13-14 5ml to 5L Plagron power buds 5ml to 5L Used 300ml of the 5L solution. I will be using these on water days from now on as they are advised to be used every irrigation. We'll see how they perform 💪💚 Day 32 01/08/24 Thursday Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6, there now taking 300ml every evening. Day 35 04/08/24 Sunday END OF WEEK 😁 De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with Plagron products. 300ml each. Had a issue with leaf invaders this week, I have treated and am checking every 48 hrs so far seems ok and not progressive.

-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.

Muy buenas compañeros !! Por aqui vengo con un seguimiento de unas Trop Cherry Gas (Relentless genetics ) partiendo de esquejes de una buena seleccion. Las voy a cultivar en unas macetas especiales geotextiles de la marca Felpot , la verdad que son una pasada , poco a poco iremos viendo los resultados. Estoy usando un sustrato de Canna Profesional y los fertilizantes de Bio Green + Scorpion , una bombaaaa!

Woche 11 und wir befinden uns so langsam auf der Zielgeraden. Die Trichome sind noch nicht ganz so wie ich sie haben möchte. Deshalb bekommt sie noch ein paar weitere Tage.

Accidentally cut trellis/net. Probably should avoid green lead fishing line, it seems to blend in easily with leaves.

Defoiled all overlaying leaves again Increased lights to setting 3/4

She is definitely looking very potent She did not grow very tall but she looks very dense and very frosty

This is the 8th week. Thursday will be 9 weeks of 12/12. Some trichs are amber. They just added a good bunch of girth over the past few days, but most of the pistils are red now. The rest of them have been dropping leaves consistenly but the canopy remains full so they must be putting out more leaves. I just flushed to 80% runoff and found out that I had 1200ppm. I just got an ec meter but my last reading said closer to 600 so idk what happened there. I flushed until I had runoff ppm of about 150. Now they're back in the grow tent. I don't want to keep assaulting them with my microscope. I think they're ready. Just gonna let them settle another day or two to dry out a bit. I took one small branch off the small Wedding Cake plant on Thursday and I've just been watching it dry on my counter. It's been 5 days and the stem snaps but still leaves a fiber connecting. I put it into a small jar with a 64RH thing. I just want to try it. It already smells amazing. The leaves on the big CBD Blue Shark plant are going really yellow and some other colours are starting to come out as well. The buds all fattened up and got more frosty again. I was worried they were foxtailing but they got more calyxes underneath the peaks and have been making more of a pyramid shape. They're really close to peak. Harvest day will be March 17 or 18. March 17 1023pm chopped and hung after lights off all day. RH was 65% before I chopped and 50% after I closed the window and cut the plants off the saturated pots. I did a wet trim to prevent mold. The buds are sticky af. Gonna hang them to dry for 7-9 days before curing in jars :) March 18 : checked the RH when I woke up and it's chilling at 45% 😎 March 19 : just checked to see how they were drying. There are seeds in every plant. RIP I'll update when I put them in jars and again a few weeks later for final review. Overall it was a good grow despite the rocky start and a good introduction to the mainline technique and my new grow space. Next grow I should have everything pretty well dialed in. March 23 They were hanging for 3 days. Rh was around 45, then spiked to 65 overnight when I forgot to turn the fans back on. Temp was high at around 26.they felt wet after 2 days, and bone dry after 4 days. The stems still didn't snap but I put them in jars anyway. A day later, jar RH was 50%. I burped all the jars and there was a smell from the new jars. I took all the weed out, washed out the jars, and did a dry trim on the weed. One of the Wedding Cake plants must have gone hermie. I didn't see any bananas and didn't even realize there were seeds until the very end. The seed pods looked just like calyxes while the plants were growing. Many of the nugs are unusable. Under the sugar leaves are just layers and layers of seeds. Some weren't hit that badly. The CBD Blue Shark is much better off but still has some seeds. I'm trying to stay positive. It's a bit of a shock though. I'm anxious to try the finished product. If the flowers at least taste good and have a good effect, all is not lost.

Getting closer

Banana purple punch finally showed the tricomb maturity we were waiting on! She’s a heavy tricomb producer and gives amazing terps. I can’t wait to see what flavonoids she holds. This grow was absolutely amazing,can’t wait to start the next!

Der Samen hat eine ganze Weile gebraucht bis er eine Wurzel ausbildete. Ich habe ihn 3 Tage der „Papertowel“ Methode gehabt, anschließend ein paar Stunden ins Wasserglas gelegt und danach wieder zwischen zwei kleine Teller in nasses Papier. Es dauerte 4 Tage bis ich ihn einpflanzen konnte. 2 Tage später hat sie das Licht der Welt erblickt. Dieses besteht aus einem der beiden Panels der 240 Watt Kingbrite LED Lampe. Anfangs auf einen PPFD Wert von 150-200, habe ich es jetzt nach einer Woche auf 600 erhöht, um zu schauen, wie sie darauf reagiert. Die meisten Autoflowers sehen nach einer Woche weiter aus und diese hier fing ziemlich an zu spargeln, daher probiere ich mit dem Licht noch etwas herum. Das ist mein erster Grow mit den Green House Feeding Bio Düngern. Ich habe einen Coco + Perlite Mix verwendet und die Düngerangaben halbiert. Green House Feeding empfiehlt 3 gr/Liter Medium BioGrow bei 8 Wochen Wachstum. BioBloom soll eigentlich kurz vor der Blüte oben in die Erde eingearbeitet werden. Ich habe beide Varianten mit je 1,5 gr/Liter von Anfang ins Medium gemischt, da Barney‘s Farm den Zyklus für die Runtz Auto mit ca. 70 Tagen angibt. Ich rechne mit ca. 20 Tagen Wachstumsphase und anschließend Blütezeit. Ob das die richtige Entscheidung war, wird sich zeigen. Ich hoffe einfach, dass sich die Nährstoffe langsam freisetzen und zur richtigen Zeit verfügbar sind, ohne zu überdüngen. Als Bewässerung kommt eine 12V Pumpe mit 7 l/Min. zum Einsatz. Hinter dieser ist ein Y-Ventil verbaut, um die Mengen zu kontrollieren. Auch hier probiere ich noch etwas. Kokos soll eigentlich nicht austrocknen. In dieser frühen Phase aber 2 Mal am Tag zu gießen, fühlt sich auch nicht richtig an. Das Wasser ist ständig in Bewegung und wird vor dem Gießen auf pH 5,8 eingepegelt. Bei der Bewässerung gibt es noch Potenzial zur Optimierung, da sich das Wasser nicht im ganzen Topf verteilen lässt. Hier werde ich wohl auf die anderen Optionen von Floraflex zurückgreifen. Für den Anfang reicht es jedoch. Mal sehen, wie sie sich entwickelt. Danke für die Aufmerksamkeit.

Slowly bending her over and threading her through the net as she is growing.

10/1 - Happy as ever. Basically on autopilot. 10/2 - Had a fun photo shoot today. Plants are looking thirsty, will likely water tomorrow. 10/3 - Watered today with the usual. Plants are starting to "stack" the nugs! 10/4 - They loved that watering. I'm loving life right now, so are the plants. I did some minor defoliation today to prevent some bud sites from being covered. 10/5 - Another great day for a photo shoot :)

Frohe Festtage

Things are going great. These girls are getting nice and frosty. They are so easy. And the smell! Oh she's heavenly! She's almost sickeningly sweet. I'm very excited to try this strain. Last year I was more on the Indica dominant bandwagon, since I use Kratom during the day for pain management. But my obsession with CBD Blue Shark has me excited for more balanced hybrids. I've been having an issue with the quality of Kratom I've been getting from vendors so I may have to start in on wake&bakes, which FastBuds says this strain is perfect for!
