Solo cup challenge continues to press along. Not much change, plants are in veg, growing and healthy. Still a few weeks before the flowers start so I hope to get a bit of size going before it does. Having fun and really like looking at the other entries in this contest. Check out WildeWeed, Butterstotch and BeanswithPork, silky, larimar, fireman

Week 9 Flush week for PE1 & PL1. Most pistils are brown or are browning and a large portion of trichomes are turning milky with some turning brown so, another week and they should be ready to harvest. PE2 still has little more time and should follow a week after. PE1 is looking and smelling mighty tasty. She's filled out nicely with clearly defined chunky buds. I just can't wait to trim those down. Despite being outside I can smell the pineapples on the groundfloor at the other end of the garden 😂 PE2 is also looking beautiful but still, has a few weeks left in her. The lemonade could be chopped now in my opinion however, I wanted this one to be my nightime smoke so i'm going to let her mature another week and chop along with PE1. She's so compact I can't really tell where each bud site is, guess i'll find out soon. I've also been preparing my shed for drying. Last season I used the office and stunk the entire house out, it was so strong at one point it made me feel a little sick. My wife, well, she was NOT happy; I'am amazed how she puts up with all my shit, she's an awesome girl. So rather than put us all through that again Inchose the shed. The challenge with the shed was to get rid of the smell. The people who lived here previously stored pool chemicals in there so it took me a few months to get any residual smell of chlorine etc out. It now just smells like somewhere dark so, should be good. The only concern is airflow. I have a fan in there but there's no ventilation. I could keep the door open but I don't want to encourage anyone to go looking for its source 😁

I harvested four plants today, putting 804 grams of wet flowers into the dry tent. I am trying to keep the environment as close as possible to 60F / 60% RH, but with the current temperatures, I will be lucky to keep it around 65. I am looking forward to the terpines are thick, like rotting citrus, strong orange smells, with a sweet fruity finish, I bet these flowers are going to smile well, and the flowers are sticky very gressey, bet the smoke will be intense!

Day 63 Flower #18 The SCroG chapter closed. The largest stretching phase is complete and the inflorescence is becoming denser. That's why I'm letting the lady grow now. Light Power: 80 to 100% in two days Day 61 Flower #16 Watered with 2,5L freshly brewed compost tea Sprayed with freshly brewed compost tea

Her growth has been fantastic. Looking forward to flowering her.

Update of the garden

The amount of trichomes on this plant is bit, not so fat buds but they look great and not as purple as in pictures. The smell seems a layered mixture of tropical fruits with classical gelato funk! Last week now before harvest with trichomes a bit less than 10% orange.

Will edit later

These clones were mixed up & are either Orange sherbet or Tropicana cookies or they could be both! Unfortunately from experience growing them before they are very hard to tell apart untill late flowering. Originally grown in DWC ,all 3 got root rot at one stage Due to extremely high temps around 35°c. Had them in a 4x8 tent, running a 6 Inch adjustable speed exhaust fan which couldn't get temps lower than 33°c in our summer heat of 40°c days & nights! Moved back into 4x4, fan works good in this size tent reduces temps 28° to 31° max. Had to cut out rotten roots on back 2 plants & put them back into veg for 2 weeks until they came good, I also took them out of DWC & put them into recirculating hydro & put back into flower. Since then they have really taken off & are very healthy & lush. The 3rd plant at the front is 4 weeks into flower this one also got root rot at a different time, but I left this one in flower. I trimmed the root rot out & have had some issues with her, I also changed her from DWC to recirculating hydro as it's more forgiving in the heat & it's how I've always grown until recently doing DWC without problems in the past. All the bigger shade leaves have turned yellow, not sure if it's still something to do with root rot or a deficiency of some sort. Just trying to get this one over the line at this point 🤞🙏 increased light wattage from 480 to 730watts running 2 viper spectra lights (250watt) inside my Mars Hydro FC-E 4800.

03/13/2021 Side branches are developing nice, I may do a little more lst to help lower tops to catch up before flowering starts Ps. Couple videos uploaded Day #6 doing some bending, and broke a branch off so I dipped in rooting powder,threw it in some vermiculite soaked with Bonide Garden Rich Root & Grow 4-10-3 with (IBA) Lets see if she will root! Fingers crossed🙏

So far so good they are handling quite good , keeping ,y Ppfds around 1400 on average with some points closer to 1600 Umols/m2s 😜🤦‍♂️💪💪💪 always believing hahahaha Day 32 Flower and all seems to be running on track , leafs are tip burned just as i like , this means im pushing them to they’re limits , more they wold go in lock mode and that as we all know is not a good thing 😆 Day 32 Flower and I’m starting to think in defoliation again, i know im not supposed, but as always i will read my garden and leaf strip as many times needed during flower or no flower time 😆😜😅💚 let’s see how they grow but i fell they need space asap already 😆💚💚💚 Trying big numbers on the Ppfd department and see how far they can take without supplement extra CO2, i mean i have the bags they help but lol Ppfd- 1400 Umol/m2s VPD- 1.51 kPa Girls : Tropicana Poison @sweetseeds - 7X Chocolate Skunk @00seeds - 2X Badazz Cookies OG @seedsman- 3X Lights 2X Lumatek Zeus 465W Compact Pro @ 100% All i Grow is medicine for myself, i do it with love for the love 💚💚💚 Growers love to you all

This girl has been growing very nice remove all the branches that were below 14 inches from the base of the pot to promote growth over the top only .this girl has continued to stretch and it's starting to smell like a typical of her kind hoping to see great things out of this girl that has developed a lot of sight branches. thank you for reading I will continue to update have a happy grow.

This may be my last week with this run and moving quickly onto the next one I jave a few plants in veg so we can skip the first few weeks where notning really excing happens

Day 46 pics Cropsalt 4 the win! How to beat Inflation? Increase your yield and crush the quality. 💚GHL out.

Ztrawberries= as you can see from the pic and video these girls are skyrocketing climbing almost an inch a day. Showing good signs of pre flower, very impressed with dominant heads coming through on all these ladies 👌🏽 Tropicana cookies = These girls are just showing off there stretch rate match that of the ztrawberries and it’s and impressive spectacle to watch also showing good signs of pre flower Cherry Cola = These girls seem a week slower than the rest none of the less they are showing a decent amount of heads just no signs of any stretch. O.N = Ztrawberries and Tropicana Cookies have had some defoliation not really touched Cherry Cola so I don’t cause any unnecessary stress. EC increased from 1.1 to 1.3. Very happy this week!!

Day 35 - 710 Diesel Auto This girl nearly doubled in size this past week and is getting super bushy - I'm not sure what to do with all the undergrowth being that it's an autoflower I worry about stripping her - I think I'm just going to let her do her thing for now and try to control her as best I can with the trellis net and some leaf tucking. Light: Platinum LED P300 set to bloom+veg mode @ 18" above plant providing about ~50,000 LUX at the top. Watering/Nutrients: RO water w/ Advanced Nutrients pH perfect line up, Real Growers Recharge and Terpinator. Environment: 4x2 Grow Tent. Temps low of 66 - high of 80 with RH of ~50% Soil: ~6 gallons of Foxfarm Ocean Forest w/ 4 extra quarts of perlite added. If you see anywhere that you think I can improve please drop a comment – thanks for reading

Settimana della Distruzione! Tanto training per le nostre Pies, che sicuramente ripagherà alla fine del ciclo 💪 Dopo 25 giorni iniziano a presentarsi anche i primi pistilli dai nodi, quindi a breve avremo già i segni di sviluppo floreale. Nel frattempo aspettiamo l'arrivo della nuova Spider Farmer SF4000 per avere una fioritura esplosiva!

9. Februar Bilder sind von gestern. Diaryupdate kommt etwas spät, war leider nicht zuhause. Nachdem allerdings zu Beginn sowieso nicht viel spannendes passiert oder gemacht wird ist das vertretbar für mich. Beide machen sich gut und sehen vital aus. Abstände zwischen den Blättern sind eng genug. Der Start ist damit schonmal erfolgreich gelungen. Wachstumsphase beginnt :) Die Horti One ist nun auf 35% eingestellt.

ladies have started to take off much more this week. I added heavy 16 finish to schedule of nutes. may be adding fire and roots also over next weeks. no huge issues this week, felt pretty dialed in for most part. using grow room glasses ive found i can get decent video of the girls under lights vs having to take them oit find ok lighting and taking a pic. noticed smell coming off the plants this week, its weak right now, but definitely starting to stink! going to top at the 3rd node once they reach 8 inches tall. after day 28, I transferred into 3 gallon fabric pots, which will be their final homes til harvest! (bottom leafs on plant #1 got some spotting, one side was windburn from earlier in grow, the other side I got a few drops of nutrient mixed water on them, and even after wiping away it left spots on leaves, its all good they are going to be removed after topping)
