8/10 buds are fattening up nicely. Moved plants under growlight to attempt to take better pictures. Cant wait to see what she looks like at the end

Well, boys and girls and those who don't differentiate, it's Weed Doctor Sam here and I'm about to fail gloriously or succeed by the skin of my teeth. This being my first grow -- of any kind, let alone a hydroponic grow involving (potentially) advanced training techniques -- I fully expect things to go wrong. And, well, golly... wouldn't it just be fun to watch? Tune in week to week to see what goes wrong, what goes right, and what goes just luckily enough not to fuck up the whole grow. Update to this week coming at the end of Week 1. Until then, may the rain fall soft on your fields.

Powdery mildew is being kept at bay from the sun's rays hopefully she stays OK till harvest time. The main cola is getting big and heavy and she is stinking the place up 😊..

Nice colas popping up showing to see the hard work pays off

noice.

So these girls have pushed through and look at thos dark purples coming through 😍 Only ph water has been fed this 9th/10th week and all trichomes cloudy with the odd amber showing through 🌱 Looking beautifull and love the colours, the smell is unreal so fruity 🔥 I may harvest over the next 3 days as too get it dried and somewhat an extra cure in mason jars ready for xmas smoke 😍🔥

Chopped down. The weather really effected this plants growth. It turned out pretty airy and not a lot of trichomes. We will see how the smell is after the dry/cure

SUMMARY: The OG has grown so much these last couple of weeks and now towers over the Amnesia like a giant. It is really starting to flower now too which is good because looking at how slowly the Amnesia is growing over the last 2 weeks I really can't see me getting the 1.5-2oz yield I was hoping for come harvest. Both plants doing fine and coming along ok. OG now drinking 5L every 48hrs and the Amnesia drinking 3.5L (though I'm still giving 4L). I switched up to the GWE updated mid bloom nutes for the OG towards the end of the week and continued with the Sensi Garden peak flowering nutes for the Amnesia this week. I continued with some light defoliation this week removing the odd lower leaf and some fan leaves covering bud sites that I couldn't tuck. DAY 72 -------- Friday 13/11/2020 I fed the plants, updated GWE early bloom nutes for OG and sensi garden peak flower nutes for Amnesia. OG (in) = 5L pH 6.5 OG (out) = 1.3L (26%) pH 5.6 [0.9 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.5 Amnesia (out) = 1.5L (38%) pH 5.7 [0.8 drop] The OG is really starting to flower now especially at the top where it is very close to the light. I'll be very surprised if it doesn't suffer light burn but nothing I can do as the light is as high as it can go. The pH of the medium is slowly rising for both and both plants are looking healthy with no leaves dying off or yellowing. I bought a USB microscope and checked the trichs out, all clear from what I can see which is great because I really want to push this for another 4 weeks if possible (15 weeks total) to give the OG a chance to bloom. I like a good couch lock so providing I can keep the plants alive and keep the humidity low enough to avoid bud rot I think it might just be possible. DAY 74 -------- Sunday 15/11/2020 I fed both plants, GWE updated schedule Mid-Blom nutes for the OG and some more Sensi Garden Peak Flower nutes for the Amnesia. The humidity has been steady at around 48-55% the last few days which is odd as we have had a lot of wet weather. I have removed around 15-20 leaves (total - only 2-4 removed from Amnesia) from both plants over the last week so perhaps that has helped with reducing the humidity a little as it usually sits around 60-65%. OG (in) = 5L pH 6.5 OG (out) = 1.25L (25%) pH 5.5 [1.0 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.5 Amnesia (out) = 1.5L (38%) pH 5.8 [0.7 drop] DAY 75 -------- Monday 16/11/2020 I mixed 5L of GWE updated schedule mid-bloom nutes for the OG and 4L of Sensi Garden peak flower nutes for the Amnesia. Both made with rainwater both pH'd to 6.4. I am feeling concerned about the runoff pH still not rising to 6.0 yet, perhaps I'm being impatient but it has been 16 days since I started giving strictly 6.5 (01/11/2020) and I know that the plants need the pH to vary within range in order to be able to uptake all available nutrients. Whilst the pH may be in range I believe certain nutrients cannot be absorbed at a pH of 6.5 and I want to get back to being comfortable feeding the plants between 5.8 and 6.2 (a reported "sweet spot" I've read from numerous sources online). As it has been over 2 weeks of strictly 6.5 I am going to try and slowly lower by 0.1 each feed and see how they respond. In any case, both plants look healthy and are growing and flowering and not showing any signs of issues. DAY 76 -------- Tuesday 17/11/2020 I gave the plants some pH'd rainwater. I intended to give them both water at 6.5 however I didn't have time and so the Amnesia water was pH'd to 6.4. I also did some more light defoliation removing 5-6 leaves from the OG and 2-3 leaves from the Amnesia, again just to allow more light to lower bud sites. The RH has been between 48-55% the last few days but is at 60% today. The plants both look healthy with no yellowing leaves or nute burn (perhaps the tiniest bits on the odd leaves of the amnesia). OG (in) = 5L pH 6.5 OG (out) = 1.15L (23%) pH 5.4 [1.1 drop] Amnesia (in) = 4L pH 6.4 Amnesia (out) = 1.55L (39%) pH 5.8 [0.6 drop] Looking at how slowly the Amnesia is growing over the last 2 weeks I really can't see me getting the 1.5-2oz yield I was hoping for come harvest.

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 ✌️🏼️🍁

it was interesting and easy, the variety has a very high potential, the plant has survived both a deficit and an overdose, but she coped well! the effect is pleasant and strong. I recommend an excellent variety for its price!

The Beans was popped into a wet paper, the greenthubs was fantastic, not the same as the runtz muffin by Barney's farm she was very strange and now she looks very busy and short 🤯🤷

Da das Wetter sehr wechselhaft war und ich bei den Autos nichts riskieren muss, habe ich die nächsten paar geerntet. 6 automatische stehen noch. Sind alle etwas kleiner als letzte Saison, aber haben trotzdem gute Blüten produziert. Erntegewicht kommt, wenn alle geerntet sind. Die erste Banana Zeit vorblüten. Generell war es eine gute Idee, mit Hornspänen als Langzeit Dünger zu arbeiten. Immer noch keine Defizite. Gute Verzweigung und gesundes Wachstum. Habe wieder entlaubt, damit die Seitentriebe und das innere der Pflanzen mehr Licht bekommt. Ak und fat Banana sind super wuchsig und haben schon Fette Stämme entwickelt. Es läuft gut 👍 bis nächste Woche ✌️

Gorilla Melon is the two further from the door

Everything has gone well. Have been flushing with just pH'd water for about a week. Starting the girls dark period today. The smell is unbelievable. I can't wait to taste these buds 🤤 Big shout out to Fast Buds for Awesome Genetics 💪 Thank you so much to the Grow Diaries Community and all those that helped and like my grow along the way 🙏

Sorry busy week. They are getting close. Just turned the lights down 20% to simulate fall for last couple weeks. Will add ice in 6 days to flush.

Yoo, finally we finished our first grow and Are very happy with the results. Anyone who smoked it says it's better then the Canadian stuff the people are selling here. We learned a lot while practicing and have already plans and improvements for our next grow. Once you have such a good harvest you will get addicted to it :)

Jus popped the seeds in the soil ready to see what happens next..

This week I top all 8 Green Poison ( 4dwc and 4 coco ) clones. They look healthy and happy and few days later I already start to low stress training (LST) them.

8/27 I think I mightve been overwatering. It's so hard to tell when the conditions change week to week. That's Maine for ya. Bags were still heavy and plants were soaked. I tried to shake the more advanced flowering plants without sending water everywhere. That's how septoria spreads. The event horizon I treated with plant doctor looks the best it ever has. It's tile for another application on the toasted toffy. I'm seeing a few spots again. I didn't have time to take pictures or do a video. This video is from last night. I'll treat that toasted toffy again today and I'll record it here. After I see it working u may treat the others. I see some residue of k bicarb but it has pretty much eradicated the pm. I know it will always be there but these treatments seem to be working. I'll be adding beastie bloom to my line up soon. EVERYDAY I go over the buds are bigger more compact and dense. Event horizon, toasted toffy and the red runtz (I think) in the 50 are flowering to beat hell! The get bigger everytime I see them. I can smell them as soon as I round the corner. This is going to be a good year. These strainsxare high in thc. Maybe I gave up some mold resistance and a harder to grow strain but if I can make it to the end it will be fire. WENT BACK OVER AROUND 5. OBVIOUSLY IN THIS SCORCHING 80°+ day the seedling in the 10 was dry as a popcorn fart. Some other plants seemed dry when I stuck my arm down the bag but I could feel some moisture when I pushed my finger through the medium. They WILL need water but I'm not giving it to them tonight. Took a shit ton if pictures and a video this morning. I'll uploadcthat shit tomorrow. I'm trying to do a couple right now. Anyway I continued to defoliate what needs it. Flowers are swelling. I GAVE THE TOASTED TOFFY ITS 2ND TREATING OF PLANT DOCTOR. I USED A QTR GALLON OF A 4 TSP PER GALLON MIXTURE. I MADE SURE TO GET AS MUCH OF THE FOLIAGE AS POSSIBLE AND THEN I USED THE RESTCON THE MEDIUM. I SHOULDVE PROBABLY WATERED THAT ONE BUT ITS GOING TO RAIN TONIGHT. AT LEAST I HOPE IT IS. Looks like some of the pics are uploading! Yay! The plants looked the best I've ever seen them tonight so I held off watering. My wife is I'll and may need to go to the hospital. So instead of watering prematurely I can monitor the situation and make a decision in the morning. I made enough phed water for my father to go around and water everything. He is aware of the situation. Hopfully that will not be necessary. However, I don't want to over water and I feel like they didn't want it. Just going with my intuition. It's done me pretty good so far. 8/28 Luckily no hospital. It's sprinkling out. Plants are covered in water so we got SOME rain. It says we will get 0.00 but that can't be right. I watered the 10 yesterday and everything else this morning with a gallon each except the middle gmo in the 30 which got 1.5 gallons. Did not water the one in the 50 gal pot. It looks a little overwatered. Also looks like it has a slight calcium/magnesium deficiency. I'll up the calmag and i'll make sure when I do water I'll water thoroughly. Like usual toasted toffy is looking better after the treatment. The all star has been the k bicarb. I haven't seen shit for pm. Just a little residue from the k-bicarb. Took a video and some pictures. This is the fun time. I like watching the buds develop. Some of these plants were monster cropped so they are STACKED. I'll keep what I do updated. 8/29 Made an awesome video today bit it won't upload. Probably because its a little over 2 minutes. I'll do another one if it won't upload. Nope it won't even attempt to upload it now. Oh well. They flowers just looked so pretty this morning. I noticed some WPM on the event horizon in the middle. I noticed SOME on the bottom and interior of the GMO that I had already identified. I'll do another k-bicarb treatment and see how that goes. Plant Doctor seems to he doing a pretty good job on the septoria on toastedctoffy and my favorite event horizon. That plantvis THICK. it's going to be stacked and have some huge colas. I need to LST it and suppirt those giant colas and separate them a bit more. There is never any shortage of work to be done I can tell you that. I have defoliation to do on the sherb pie and the middle event horizon. It seems like crisis after crisis. Bu my plants are STRONG. 8/30 It was in the 40s at 6am. Shook off the plants. Bags are still heavy. I see some septoria climbing a bottom branch of the toasted toffy. It's foggy as hell out. Can't see a foot in front of me. Saw a LITTLE PM on the gmo I've been treating. It's just time to apply the ki bicarb. Plant Doctor is working wonders on even horizon in the back. I see some pm on the one in the middle. I think I'll treat that with plant doctor as well. I'm not sure. I messed up the video. I've got work to do. I'm waiting until I water and I'll feed again. I'm going to add beastie bloom to the lineup this time I think. Only one plant seems like it m9ght be too early for it. We'll see. I need to look back. I'll document what I do. Video won't upload. I'll try later but it's sideways WENT OVER AROUND 3PM AND EVERYTHING LOOKED FABULOUS. WELL....THE PLANT I DIDNT WATERCLAST TIME IN THE 50 WAS DROOPING SO I GAVE IT A GALLON AND A HALF. THE TEN WAS LIGHT SO I GAVE IT A GALLON. IT WASNT DROOPY BUT ITS A HUGE PLANT IN A 10GAL AND USES A LOT OF WATER. I WAS PLANNING TO GO CHECK THEM TONIGHT AND SEE IF THEY NEEDED WATER BUT EVERYTHING IS PRAYING TO THE SUN! I DONT WANT TO OVERWATER AND I BELIEVE THESE WOULD BE BEST SUITED TO BE WATERED IN TGE MORNING. ILL FEED THIS TIME AS WELL. IM CONSIDERING ANOTHER APP OF K BICARB. TOOK A FEW PICTURES AND VIDEOS BUT ILL NEED TO UPLOAD 8/31 FED AND WATERED EVERYTHING. TOASTED TOFFY DIDNT GET FED DUE TO SEPTORIA AND THE 10 ISNT FAR ENOUGH ALONG.. THE 50 WAS WATERED YESTERDAY BUT GOT THE FEED WITH A LITTLE MORE WATER THIS MORNING. I ADDED ABOUT 1/16 TSP BEASTUE BLOOM TO THE REGULAR LINEUP TO SEE HOW IT GOES. MY BUDDY TOLD ME LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH PM. I WENT BACK OVER TO DEFOLIATE AND LOOK FOR PM AND I FOUND IT. ON THE GMO INTETIOR AND SOME BOTTOM BRANCHES. I DEFOLIATED WHAT WAS BAD AND THEN I SPRAYED 3 GMO'S, EVENT HORIZON IN THE MIDDLE AND SHERB PIE WITH K-BICARB. HOPFULLY THAT WILL KEEP THINGS OUT OF CONTROL. I WILL BE WATCHING AND KEEPING UP WITH FUNGACIDES. IF I FIND ONE NOT WORKING ILL SWITCH IT UP. I HAVE A FEW OPTIONS. BUDS ARE EXPLODING IN GROWTH! WINDY OUT. I SAW A SECONDARY BRANCH LIMP AND MY GEART SUNK. I LOOKED DOWN THOUGH AND SAW THAT IT JUST WAS BLOWN HATD AGAINST THE TOMATO CAGE AND SNAPPED. I REMOVED IT WITB A SIGH OF RELIEF. MY BUDDY SAYS THE SEPTORIA DOESNT LOOK TO BAD AND ITS PRETTY FAR IN FLOWER SO HE THINKS ILL BE ALRIGHT. NEVER GROWING CLONES AGAIN. ILL STICK TO SEEDS AND STEAINS MADE FOR MAINES 9/1 Forgot to write an entry. IT RAINED FOR A BIT BUT TURNED TO BRIGHT 80'S 9/2 WATERED EVERYTHING. I THINK ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER TREATMENT OF PLANT DOCTOR TODAY. The septoria is getting a little worse. The buds are swelling everyday though. I think this plant only has a month left. I just need to outrun it. So far so good. I think my watering habits are better now. It's different depending on weather. Potassium bicarb has been wonderful treating the pm on that gmo. I treated the middle event horizon with it as well. It seems to work awesome. I'm losing tons of leaves. I hope that's normal senescence. I think it is seeing as how I see SOME foliage in the woods. Its matching other diaries. The plant must shed some leaves to make these flowers that seem to double in size every time I see them! Trying to upload a couple videos but they are long so we'll see what happens. WENT BACK OVER AT NIGHT ANDCAPPLIED A LITTLE BIT OF K BICARB AND DEFOLIATED WHAT I SAW ON THAT GMO. IVE BEEN DEFOLIATING WHAT SEEMS LIKE A LOT BUT BUDS ARE SWELLING AND ITS CONGRUENT WITH THE MAJORITY OF MY DIARIES. I WISH I HAD PERFECT CONDITIONS BUT I DONT. I TREATED THE EVENTHORIZON WITH PLANT DOCTOR AGAIN. I USED APPROX A QTR GALLON OF 2 TSP/GALLON AND TRIED TO AVOID BUDS WHILE STILL GETTING THE LEAVES. I KINDA USED THE REST AS A SQUALCH SINCE I HAD WATERED THIS MORNING. THE WIND WAS STRONG. I ADDED A GARDEN STAKE AND ROPE SUPPORT TO THE TOASTED TOFFY AND ATTACHED IT RIGHT TO THE FRAME OF THE CAGE. LOOKS GOOD FOR NOW. ILL KEEP THINGS UPDATED.
