03.07. Girl Scout Cookies Day 69# Nothing special is happening, it's been 4 days since the last update, I was a little late last time, so here I am so I won't be late again. Tomorrow is the end of the tenth week for the plants, this morning I fed them, before that I gave them only water for 2 waterings, that is, they were in water for a whole week. It's hot right now and I'm watering them every 3 days, this morning they each got 30+ liters, anyway, except for the ones in smaller pots, they got a lot less.

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** This week has been interesting, I was getting some weird runoff numbers in terms of EC/PPM and PH, so I decided to try and bring the PH up with a flush of high PH water into the medium. I did not have any PH up on hand so I used borax, PH of 9-10 plus it will help kill off any microbes in the soil that I believe is causing the PH swings. After doing this and getting the PH I wanted in the solution I released that the amount of B in the solution was to high and would cause more issues down the road, It was late in the day so I left the next flush to fix the excess B till tomorrow morning. Morning came and when I processed to flush I added in a bit of peroxide to the water and a dash of dish soap to break the waters surface tension so it flows through the pots more easily. This was going fine till it started to not drain out at all. I think it was foaming up in the medium and preventing a normal flow, plus on two of the pots I lost my perlite that sits on the top of the medium. I had to massage the pots "like when you transplant" to make then start draining again and then purchased a Yucca extract to help it flow through. Everything is back to normal. The pots are really root bound and should be transplanted but its mid flower and that's not going to be happening. I also don't know if I'd even have the space for it. I added in a b1 vitamin as well on recommendation of grow shop as apparently their other lineup I purchased did not have any. No idea if its working well only first week in the feeding. The Cytokelp is fun, but the one hormone in it is similar to a PGR but its not a real PGR. I am skeptical of it and not using it as foliar, just root watering. I also added in a bit of CaMg supplement that gave the plants a boost in N and Ca. The mg of this product was lesser then others I have seen about a 5:1 ratio of Ca to Mg. after the big flushes the runoff was hitting 120ppm so I gave it a good feed at 1.8EC Time will tell If i fucked it up royally by doing all this, this ETS plant is still going strong and is the 2nd best plant in the tent, it very well may get 1st some harvest time as I was detecting some strong whiffs of a kushy berry smell coming off it, it was sexy as fuck! All the plants are still stretching but it seems slow to me. Maybe it will continue going but it only put on about 2cm in the last week and a half. Feels slow. I may see more stretching in the next week upcoming and it just had a ruff start. Lights still running at 100% with V1 spectrum, everything seems to be working just fine, no light burn. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ + https://www.emeraldtriangleseeds.co.uk/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled + https://www.facebook.com/OriginalETS/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow + https://twitter.com/emeraldseeds Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ + https://www.instagram.com/emeraldtriangleseeds/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow + https://growdiaries.com/grower/emeraldtriangleseeds https://growdiaries.com/seedbank/emerald-triangle-seeds

Do not train to hard in veg. Scrog net is probably the way to go. I topped several times and stunted them. Nutrients were also touchy so I don't recommend it for first grow. This was my 4th grow and by far the most finicky. Only worth if you truely love indica and dont mind giving them lots of time. I must say flavor and smell is wonderful and unique. My house smells amazing after trimming these. Good resin production for a strain that only expects 15% THC. Still gets me high, but what truely makes this strain special is the taste! 3 of 6 plants had purple.

------GENERAL COMMENT------ As planed I lowered the base nutrient to 2ml, and took a break from Cal Mag, to release the N a bit, green is on point now. Tomorrow will catch up with the Cal Mag schedule as usual. Time for some overdrive, for the rest all good, girls are developing well and buds are getting bigger, no issues. Smelling delicious! Hope I had some Terpinator to give a go... ------SM.BB COMMENT------ BB is maturing faster you already can see I have cloudy Trichomes, she will be a fast finisher as it looks like...

Eh estado desconectado pero aquí va algo más de estas nenas, aun las tengo en periodo de vegetación. Lo que si esta semana logramos instalar la carpa correspondiente para estas nenas así que estamos esperando a llenar la carpa y poder pasar a floración. La estructura habla por si sola, aun no le hago amarres correspondientes ya que estoy esperando que me lleguen los soportes y poder darle más vigor del que ya tiene con el apoyo. Estamos probando cannaboost via folear 3 veces por día 2 ml x litro. lo vamos a utilizar hasta el día 21 de floración y comenzamos vía riego. quiero comprobar diferencias ya que todos mis cultivos tengo que probar alguna cosa nueva ya sea estilo de alimentación o lo que sea. Siempre dispuesto a resolver cualquier duda me pueden encontrar en instagram @chocolopeison Saludos

Gas tax x obama runtz there is not alot to update this week. They have not grown very much the past week. They got extra dark last time when I watered and gave 2ml per gal of grow big. They are still the smallest 2 plants in the tent. They both have started making their 1st set of leaves with 5 point although the other leaves have not started to get larger yet. I don't think they have rooted solid quite yet. Happy late turkey day grow diaries world!!!! It's now day 24 from seed for all the seedlings I have going. The past few days the plants have really started to take off. There roots have really started to dig in. Every other water I am still giving 2ml per gal of fox farm grow big. I keep having to tell myself not to add any more nutes other than that. I don't want to fry my plants but I also want they to start jumping. I'm quite excited for the coming week, I think the next 7 days or so is when the plant really starts to transform and look more like a pot plant than just some random little green thing. A few days ago I decided to move the plants from under my 55w cheep amazon light to under my spider farmer 100w newer version light with the good leds in it. The plants will hopefully be ready to up pot them here soon and get them in the large tent. Sometimes when growing multiple different strains it can be really hard to balance giving to much or to little light. You don't want the faster growing plants to get to stretched out waiting on the slower plants to catch up I spend Thanksgiving day morning transplanting the plants into 2gal pots. I am useing spme promix potting soil it's my 1st time tring this soil. It is actually doing really well the roots were all white and nice looking. I think next time I'm going to add some worm casting, kelp, granular mycos, and a little bit extra perlite. I just didn't have the money with christmas coming to splurge for all the extra stuff. I got rid of 2 plants 1 of the bubble og and 1 skunk apple runtz. There is only room for 10 pots in the 2x4 tent. I will peob only bring 8 of them to flower, always good to have back ups. Yesterday I also stuck the plants back under the 500w medicgrow mini sun 2 in my 2x4 tent. They did great under it the 2nd half the day I was happy they didn't get stressed. I had put them under that light a little early about 10 days ago or so. I am expecting in a week these plants will ge going crazy with growth

✋Wk 7: Will the size difference begin to fall in line with the predictions, and rearranging the wind. 👉 This week is Day 48 thru Day 54 total. (Feb 16 thru 22). Today (day 54ttl) the 1 gallon plant is at day 21 flower and the 3 gallon is at day 9 flower. 👉 This week has shown some interesting things. The 1 gallon plant is still ahead in the physical timeline, and has also started to demonstrate how the smaller pot is limiting its size. The 1 gallon has been ahead of the 3 gallon plant in size and stature, until this week. The 1 gallon has stopped stretching and is beginning to develop its flowers. I was worried it would continue to get bigger and may become an issue vertically as well as horizontally. The 3 gallon plant has grown a few inches and isn’t really stretching up yet, but it is growing overall in size. It’s a big dome of leaves right now. Its main cola is same height as a couple of the secondary branches. I doubt the main cola will remain the same but this plant hasn’t been typical from its germination so only time will tell. 👉 The other interesting thing has actually been trending this way for a couple of weeks…the run-off for both plants has been lower than the inflow and no low EC fertigation has been needed. The 1 gallons roots are undoubtedly densely packed in the pot. It takes several minutes to apply the nutrient solution. The volume needed has also increased. The 3 gallon still readily accepts the solution, but it takes more every day and the run off takes longer to start running out of the bottom. The saturation level of both pots has increased, and the 3 gallon especially. The EC for both has stayed below the inflow EC. This is unusual because part of the volume of water in the pot when saturated isn’t absorbed by the plant, it evaporates on all sides of the pot and the top of the media. This would leave the dried nutrients wich would rinse off at each fertigation adding to the TDS. The reduction of EC in the run-off means the nutrients are being utilized by the plant. I have dropped the inflow EC of the 3 gallon a little because I was worried about burn. I have kept the EC of the 1 gallon plant at the low end of the recommended EC range of the General Hydroponics drain to waste nutrient schedule chart for the Flora series of nutrients. I use the entire line of these nutrients. For the one gallon I had been giving it only the “simple program”, and the 3 gallon the “expert” (entire line). This week when I noted that the stretch has pretty much ended for the 1 gallon, and decided that I will go ahead and give it the expert mixture as well but given at the low end of the EC range still. Ive included the Fertigation log for the week. It shows the tent temps, the outdoor temps and HVAC setting. Also, I note when a fresh batch is made and what week on the schedule it is. Each pot has the recorded time of fertigation, volume, pH, and EC of the solution given and the corresponding run-off. I mix the solutions at full strength and use a solution with just silica and Cali-magic to reduce the EC to the desired EC. I mix that in at fertigation time. I also adjust the pH if necessary at this time. 👉 The structure of the 1 gallon is very stout main trunk, and each branch is very sturdy. The bigger fan leaf production has given way to smaller leaves. The structure of the 3 gallon also has a very stout main trunk and each branch is very sturdy. The 3 gallon has some very large fan leaves and it has lots of vegetation. Its very dense and hard to peer inside. For both plants I have begun to selectively remove branches that would not be producing anything but larf. The 1 gallon only needed the lowest main branches trimmed. I also removed some of its smaller shaded secondary branches and leaves inside the canopy. The trimming on the 3 gallon is similar, however its much harder to get inside. I just do a little at a time at each fertigation. Im not sure if the first set of branches on the 3 gallon will be tall enough to keep but I want to wait till the plant starts stretching to see what they will do. Ive left as many leaves as possible in the 3 gallon…a lot of really nice fat food factories. This plant may go very large, or it may stay somewhat stunted as it did during the early veg phase. 👉 I positioned the plants I closer to the back wall. I bought a oscillating tower fan and was hoping it would be a good addition to the tent. Alas, it had too strong of a wind current (on the lowest speed) and the 1 gallon was showing signs of wind stress after 2 days. So I removed the fan and re-positioned the smaller fans I had clipped up top of the tent. Both fans are now hanging lower on adjustable ropes and point toward the plants. They are working well like this and the air flow is good. I may modify the oscillating fan and install a variable resistor to the fan motor to reduce the flow. I have added the branch support to the legs of the stand the 1 gallon is on. These posts will be used to support the weight of buds or position them as needed. I will add the support posts to the 3 gallon plant after it has gone thru its stretch, maybe another 2 weeks for that.

Welp, These took a Bit longer than my Cream Cookies and still didn't fill out quite like I thought they would.. But they are still a very beautiful strain and a joy to have grown. They smell stronger and way more lovely than the cream cookies thou just a beautiful aroma I'd really like to grow these again Indoors where I can control them easier. (Sadly they dried into wispy nothings and we turned them all into bubble hash) #3 took the hit of some aphids and ended up in a frozen hash pile in our fridge along with two cream cookies from the run. It's frozen weight combined was 203g. *will update with dry*

May 24, 2024 Day 99 This is the last week for these ladies. They have until the end of this week and then harvest no matter what. I'd much prefer to harvest them sooner, but I don't have space in my dry tent. It's only a 2x2 and the Tropicana Cookies just finished up and will be in there for about 7 days. Banana Purple Punch A needs a half gallon of water today. She's not done yet and she's all dried up. So I'll give her that half gallon of plain water today PHed to 6.1 and that's it. She should be dry again in a week. I'll be checking trichomes today as well. I'll update when I finish up. Banana Purple Punch B is amazing. She smells wonderful and now with the Tropicana Cookies out of the tent, her aroma can shine. Wow. I'll be checking trichomes as well today. She also finished up her reservoir but she's still pretty moist. It must have emptied yesterday. This may last the week. I'll need a few days for her to dry out as well. So I might have to add a bit more water. Maybe a quarter gallon? Just enough for her to last the rest of the week. I'll see how she is tomorrow. The environment is still a bit wonky. The humidity is still in the mid 50's% with the temp being around 73°. It's currently at 76° and 57% humidity. Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.2° RH: 56.7% VPD: 1.17 kPa May 25, 2024 It's rainy today and naturally, the humidity in my room is stupid high. So in the tent the humidity is back to 60%. I'll be opening the tent door again every couple of hours today. Banana Purple Punch A is starting to look like a hot mess. Tops are starting to flop over and there's a super weird fade going on. Leaves that just curled up and turned super dead yellow. Some of the leaves are showing purple, and the tops are getting purple hues. Still a bit of a mess. Banana Purple Punch B is getting more and more purple. Her leaves are starting to lighten up as well. We can certainly see the start of the fade. The tops have nearly all purple sugar leaves. The buds are still pretty green. I wonder how it works with this one. We shall see over the next 6 days. I might have to add a half gallon of water to her reservoir. She's already a bit too dry to last the week. So I'll do that later today I think. Maybe first thing tomorrow. Harvest time is 6 days away now. Both ladies are looking super close to being done. Hell, I may even go past the ideal time by a couple days. That's perfectly fine. I could use a good sedative. The environment is back to being an absolute mess. The temp is at 75°, which is fine. But the humidity is back up to 60%. Hopefully I can get the humidity to drop a bit. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.1° RH: 55.1% VPD: 1.30 kPa May 26, 2024 These 2 are shaping up to be some heavy yielders. Both have massive buds and are on their way to being fully done. Another 5 days I think and they will be ready for harvest. However, I may have to keep them in there for a few extra days. The Tropicana Cookies in the dry tent are taking a bit longer to dry than I anticipated. Banana Purple Punch A looks great. I ended up using a piece of a plant tie to prop up one of the most leaning tops. Looks great now. Much more light penetration to the lowers. Banana Purple Punch B is absolutely amazing right now. MASSIVE buds that weigh a whole lot. She finally has a distinct purple look to her. And it's just getting more and more purple. When she is done, I believe she will have some beautiful foliage and lots of dark purple leaves. She got about 1/3 of a gallon of water today to the reservoir. She was dry and she has much too long to go before she should be that dry. The leaves are all starting to turn a bright green and fading into deep purples and yellows with orange. Fall foliage indeed. I'll also be doing a full defoliation in 3 days I think. I want to clear as much foliage as I can before wet trimming. It doesn't seem as though wet trimming will be all that bad. There's sugar leaves, but they are big instead of plentiful. So it should be pretty quick. Drying may pose an issue. If the humidity keeps up like this, I'll have a lot of trouble keeping it below 62% in the dry tent. We have a few days left anyway, so maybe it will go back down by then. The light is the same. I did take the DLI today and the average is about 40 mol/m²/d, so that's fine. I'd much rather it be closer to 36 mol/m²/d, but then it would interrupt the Sour Diesels in the tent that just started to flower. The environment is really off today. It's super humid out and it's showing and killing my good vibes. The temp is a bit low at 73°. I would prefer it to be 75° during the day. It helps with all the plants in the tent. Oh well not won't stay low for long. It should start to creep up later today. The humidity is still super high at 63% today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.2° RH: 60.9% VPD: 1.15 kPa May 27, 2024 Both ladies got a half gallon in their reservoirs today. Both were way too dry for now, sona half gallon should last them at least the night. Just 4 more days and we can harvest. Unless this humidity doesn't let up, then I have to wait even longer for the Tropicana Cookies to dry. AND risk mold! Damn it! Banana Purple Punch A is starting to get floppy. I hooked some of the tops to each other so they will stand. A couple outer branches were starting to fall as well, so the were also tied up. Hopefully that solves the issue for the next 4 days. Maybe 5 or even 6 now. Too long in my opinion. She doesn't have much in terms of fading but it's starting at least. Her leaves are all messed up. So I'm not bothering with the fade honestly. If she fades, she fades. I'll be defoliating in 2 days anyway. Then wet trimming, so the leaves aren't really a thing to bother with now. She also has lowers with white pistils. They are developed, but the pistils are still white. Those are going to change in. Matter of days. Banana Purple Punch B is shaping up to be the best plant of this run. She's actually the shortest, but has the best structure and the most solid buds and a lot of them. She's also doing quite well in her final days. Her leaves are turning dark purple with the lowers turning bright green. She got a quarter gallon of water yesterday and drank it up almost immediately. I think I'll have to keep her watered for the next couple of days. She will certainly dry out quickly when I stop watering, so I think she will only need a couple days to fully dry out. Currently, she is about 34% soil moisture content. Not bad at all. It might go up to 45% with the half gallon, but no higher. I haven't done trichomes in a few days. I may get a video in today or tomorrow. Both plants could use a good viewing. Not that it matters, as I have to schedule my harvest, regardless of doneness. But we'll check them for science. The environment is back to being the bane of my existence. Seriously, it's driving me insane. So the humidity is WAY up at 65% with the temp being around 74°. It's horrible. I really don't want to keep opening the tent. It just takes away precious light space. The average night temp was also high at 70° with the humidity still being up at 64% I have no idea how these ladies haven't gotten bid rot or mold. Maybe it's because it's like a wind tunnel in there. Exhaust on full power, two 6 inch oscillating clip fans facing each other. There's no space untouched by some sort of airflow. It's not a heavy wind, but like a light breeze. Update: I finally took some trichome videos and was a bit surprised at what I found. Both plants have tons of cloudy barely any clear and a good amount of amber. The extra 4 to 6 days may be a bit too long. We shall see. Some of the lowers still have white pistils and only have amber trichomes on the leaves. So there's time for them to finish up. We'll see how this works out. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.3° RH: 60.8% VPD: 1.11 kPa May 28, 2024 Very late entry today. I was quite busy wet trimming Banana Purple Punch A for the chop. Yep, you heard it. The chop. One of the Tropicana Cookies finished drying today and I thought it was time to harvest her. So she got a full wet trim and is hanging in the dry tent. She weighs in at a total of 22.26 oz wet hang. She has heavy buds, so the weight retention should be impressive. Maybe 5 oz? Maybe 4. Not bad. Banana Purple Punch B will be harvested when the last Tropicana Cookies is done. That should be in about 4 to 5 days. Currently I have her moved to the back of the tent with the Sour Diesels taking over the rest. She looks great. More and more purple. The environment is still crazy. Super high humidity and nothing I can do about it. I've tried AC, no AC and just started the heater. Something has to work. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 63.2% VPD: 0.98 kPa May 29, 2024 Nothing to do today. Banana Purple Punch A is on her first day of drying and I expect it to take 10 to 14 days based on the current environment in the dry tent. I did put a dehumidifier in there to help clear it out. It won't be permanent. Just until I can get the humidity back down to 60%. Then it will come out and go back in the 3x3. This will then help regulate the humidity for Banana Purple Punch B. Banana Purple Punch B looks great! She will be harvested whenever the dry tent has a free spot. Should be in about 4 to 6 days, unless the humidity drops below 60% and then maybe 3, but I doubt it. I also finally was able to take her off the risers and it worked a charm. The Sour Diesels in the tent aren't being overshadowed anymore and she is at a perfect light distance. With the drop of the risers, the canopy DLI is now 38 mol/m²/d. Over the next few days, it should make the buds even more purple and dense. The 3x3 environment is around 63% and at 73°. Still super high. The dehumidifier should start working soon. We will see a small drop in humidity. Maybe a jump in temp, but I need to get the humidity down somehow. The temp is nice and low for this lady, but not great for the other plants. I'd rather it be around 75° or even better 74.5°. Because I was able to remove the risers from Banana Purple Punch B, I finally could lower the light for the Sour Diesels. The DLI is at 38 mol/m²/d with the power at 60%. Looking great! Grow System Environment: Temp: 73.3° RH: 63.2% VPD: 1.01 kPa May 30, 2024 Lots to do today. Well, this afternoon. I finally pulled the final Tropicana Cookies out of the dry tent and now it's ready for Banana Purple Punch B. I may actually leave her in the dark for a day or 2 just under her sister plant that is currently drying. Banana Purple Punch A is enjoying her second day of drying. It's actually a bit dry in the tent now. A good day out. But a bit too dry for a solid week. It should increase when I put her sister in the tent. She still has a good way to go. Maybe another 8 days if I can push it that far. Banana Purple Punch B will be getting fully defoliated this afternoon. Then I think I'll put her in the dry tent for a day or 2. A nice dark period to stress her out a bit. Not to mention it will increase the humidity a bit in there as well. I'll do a full wet trim in a day or 2 when she is done with the dark period. It should also give her time to fully dry out her container. And give a final push in trichome production. I'm not going to bother with the environment today. It won't matter until tomorrow. Then I'll get dark tent data. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.4° RH: 57.1% VPD: 1.13 kPa

This week I added a 4 inch duct on the lower left side right by the fan, so it pulls in fresh air from another room. Also, I made a bunch of 1 inch holes in my buckets, then lined them up with mold resisting drywall tape and finally I wrapped the buckets in shiny hvac tape, figured it would help with the light. I have 2 temperature and humidity probes, one by the canopy and the other one lower. I must say that I was pleased with the progress so far.
