Tart Pops is powering through week 4 of veg looking strong and vibrant! ✅ I gave her a clean FIM job this week to encourage some lateral growth and bushier structure. She's bounced back well and is showing no signs of stress — nice, tight internodes and solid color throughout. Started preventive IPM routine after spotting spider mites on the Blue Cheese in flower. Spraying Neudosan and Bioneem every few days as a protective measure — so far, Tart Pops is unaffected and looking mint 🍃. The soil’s holding moisture well with good drainage thanks to the perlite mix, and the airflow and spacing are keeping the lower growth healthy too. Looking forward to training her further next week as the new tops take shape. Let’s go Tart Pops! 🚀 #VegLife #FIMSuccess #IPMSchedule #TartPops #HealthyGrowth #PreventPests

[First time on this diary? => Read "GERMINATION" tab to understand what I'm doing ] 03/01/2022 - Day 91 - First day of the 15th week. Yoooo, anyone here? We back after one month of silence! Yes, she's still alive, very slowly but she's fighting cold and doing her stuff 🔥 Happy new year everyone! Wish me good luck and let's hope in sunny mild days 🤞☀️ - DD

A drip irrigation system was installed on Sunday for improved efficiency. Temps held steady at 27–28°C (day) and 25–26°C (night), humidity ranged from 58–63%, and VPD stayed between 1.2–1.3. Soil EC was consistent at 1.3–1.4 mS/cm, and soil water content hovered around 19–22%. Lights were mostly at 90% @ 25cm (briefly 100% on Thursday), delivering a steady 900 μmol/m²/s PPFD, with CO₂ at 480–500 ppm. Some CalMag deficiency persisted, with 1.5x the usual dose applied, and one plant was over-defoliated but is being monitored with no worsening issues. Lessons: Consistency Pays Off: Stable environmental stats and regular watering kept plants thriving. 🌿 Defoliation Caution: Over-defoliation on one plant was a misstep; monitor its recovery closely. ✂️ CalMag Needs Attention: Persistent deficiency suggests further tweaks may be needed. Irrigation Upgrade: The new drip system should streamline watering—watch its impact. 💧 Takeaway: A mostly smooth week with stable conditions and proactive care. Keep an eye on the over-defoliated plant and CalMag levels while fine-tuning the new irrigation system. Steady progress with room for vigilance! 🚀

Sooooo Still flushing this bad bish, tricomes are still devolpoing from what I've seen and the plant look relatively healthy still. Have flushed 3 times with just water and again added 2ml flawless finish with 1 litre and watered waiting a couple days and will flush with water again. Patiently waiting....

The whole neighbourhood is trying to figure out where the skunk family is!!! Plants never stopped flowering yet but have slowed considerably. We had 5 major frosts and 2 snow events during this grow and all plants stood the test. One night was -4C. This is all coming down in two days where it is scheduled to be a +22C day.

Helloo, planties are roughtly 3 week into vegetative growth. Into second week our cat snucked into the tent and being the motivated gardener she is, dug out quick one and speedy chille, we put them both back into place gave planties some water, and with time they recovered, speedy chille got most stress, but being photoperiod, recovered slowly aswell, still the shortest and very loved. :) so everythings good Royal kush has the strongest smell of them all, few leafs we defoliated we grind in our hard and smell a deep green canna scent. Northen lights is the leader in hight since begining When planties grew 5 tops we topped them, began doing LST and a bit of defoliation, bended stems away from the lamp and taking off leaf that blocks light reaching tops. The stems hardened and remind me now more of a tree

Idk what to do here shes definetly flowering but idk how she is so tall shes more than doubled her height in the last 2 weeks. Thinking about bending the main top over with some string or rope. Check back next week to see if it continues to stretch haha worlds tallest auto maybe idk. The fact that I topped it and it did this really has me wondering

The terps are finally here all three Saturns have a similar citrus pine-Sol . Extremely loud. And both gas cream cakes have a sweet candy like aroma. Earlier in the week a did a small top dress with terp tea bloom. I wish I waited on it because they need their last big top dress now as well and I don’t want to over do it seeing how they are looking great. A lot of purple is comming out of the gas cream. I don’t believe it to be a deficiency . I think it’s just genetics. I think this will be my last run in small pots I think I’m going to move on up to ten gals. Now they girls are drinking everyday or every other. This week I will do there final top dress

The first 2 Blackberry’s are stretching and developing bud sites. These 2 are a bit small, but the purple in number 1 is coming in nicely. I think the 3rd will be the champion of the bunch and outgrow her big sisters. My fault for trying to get a head start by a few weeks on the first 2 in less than ideal conditions. Live and learn. I’m going to keep all plants growing so everyone can see the good, the bad and the ugly. (I bet the ugly still gets me high as fuck!) 😜 New tents coming soon too. Another 2x4 and a 4x8. 👍

mogge! Rapier bloeit en ruikt goed! Het weer is erg wispelturig (herfst is in aankomst..) maar deze week zou het nog even warm blijven en dan vermoed ik dat het voorlopig niet meer warmer zal worden..😡 Maar wat ik al zei in de update van Black Opium(Rapier dus..)... Het kan zijn dat ik deze 2 heb omgewisseld in de propagator.. Ik twijfelde al maar nu twijfel ik helemaal nu ik deze donker paarse bloemen zie.... WEzullen het nooit zeker weten denk ik.. maar 1 ding is zeker ze gaan alle2 fijn in mn vaporizer!😵 👊 Happy growing 4all✊ **KISS! growingtechnique: keepItSimple, Stupid! PS: na er even over geslapen te hebben ,heb ik de namen van de dagboken toch omgewissels.. duidelijk dat dit de mooie paarse toppen van Black Opium zijn! 👊 PS: i changed the names of the diaries..its very clearthat these are the beautiful buds of black opium!!

Day 15 - First day in the second week of veg cycle and I am generally happy with both ladies. Cheech is looking like she is bending over a little with the weight of her leaves, so I’ve given her a bit of help to keep her steady and strong. I’ve also noticed that the roots on Cheech are sticking together and a bit darker than I would like. This could mean that the air stone left a “dead spot” where the water wasn’t circulating properly. I’ve adjusted the air stone to be more centre in the bucket and made sure that the water is cold enough to prevent potential root rot. Will need to keep a close eye for the next week or so. Lights have been not been adjusted (still at 60cm from seedlings) because there has only been about a 2cm growth in the last week. Changed the water (10L), buckets and nutrients to keep everything healthy. The tubes for the air bubblers are wiped down because the nutrients stick to the pipe. Milwaukee PH controller is running for about 1 hour to bring the PH down again from the addition of the nutrients and change in water. Day 17 and we have a clear front runner in Cheech. Her third node is open with a fourth clearly visible. Venezia has a clear third node, but it isn’t fully open yet with the fourth just barely starting. Day 20 - Cheech has a clear fourth node now and the fifth is starting to show whereas Venezia is one node behind. They are looking healthy and they will be ready to be topped in the coming week of veg

Día 02. Tuve que empezar la floración. Las raices estaban empezando a salir por el caño de descarga. Además estoy notando que al quedar mucha agua atrapada entre las raíces, la toman más rápido y los 20 litros que puse no sé si van a alcanzar. Ya había tenido este problema hace bastante y me había olvidado. Pero igual no me preocupa tanto. Sé que puedo manejarlo tranquilo. Así que al final, la semana anterior fueron sólo 3 días. Ahora voy a ir planificando bien, dado que la diferencia de altura en una de las Polaris, me va a obligar a ir llevando un LST riguroso. También estoy empezando a pensar en formas para evitar las tapadas de raíces. Creo que algo se me va a ocurrir para implementar en algún momento. Voy a hacer un corte de hojas muy grande cuando haya terminado el estiramiento de pre flora. Porque quiero probar cuanto afecta a una rama el quitarle la hoja principal. Algunas he cortado y otras cuantas no. Apliqué Feeding Enhancer de Greenhouse, en forma foliar la noche que pasé a floración. Voy a hacer una nueva aplicación en una semana seguramente. Tuve que bajar la frecuencia de reigo de 30/30 a 15/45 por hora, porque creo que eso hizo que se hagan tan grandes rápido. Igual es un dato que voy a tomar en cuenta para el futuro. Día 04 Me preocupa la velocidad a la que se toman la solución nutritiva. Les puse 20 litros hace 4 días y quedan solamente 12 litros. A este ritmo voy a tener que empezar a poner mucho más de los esperado. Aunque igual, creo que cuando haga un trim fuerte de hojas, ahí van a empezar a regular más el consumo de agua. Además al haber crecido tanto las raíces, es mayor la cantidad de solución que queda estancada en las raíces y es consumida. Así que eso también será un tema a mejorar. Me gusta que las plantas estén así, pero siento que no las voy a poder controlar.

12/15: Plant is looking real good, the roots are soaking with water and air, increased to the normal nutrient schedule, and have been adding ph down every day to keep it under 6.5. I also just lowered the light about a few inches, the taller bud sites were about 20 inches, I wanted to lower ones to get more light... the leaves haven't had any effect, the other bud sites seem to be thrivingg now. 12/17: water level down about 1/4 inch. Everything looks ok.

Salut les cultivars sa roule ?! C+29 a C+38 début floraison je pense... Sa pousse bien. Bonne vigueur des autofloraison surtout la critical... Arrosage tous les 3 4 jours 1litre par pot apport de mélasse à chaque arrosage... J'ai jouter deux ampoule une Led de 15w et cfl de 23w équivalente à une 100w la Led fait 4000k 1500lumens et la cfl 2700k 1500lumens la plante transpire pas mal mai pas de souci de moisissures... J'installe la cfl 250w 2700k quand la floraisons sera bien démarrer... Tous conseils sont les bien venu merci je c'est pas si je vais a 12/12 pour la wombat qui est féminisé pour ne pas perdre en quantité sur les auto qui et mieux 18/6 sinon bouturage pour la wombat je suis dans l'impasse total pour le moment 🙄

Greenhouse feeded one is struggling under the high intensity of the light. But still growing frosty buds. Advance Nutrient one is smaller and is receiving less light. She is still recovering from the earlier accident though.
