Grow Diaries Report: Flower Week 1 – Stretch Madness & Heavy Grooming 🌿🚀 Week 9 – Flower Week 1 Update The flowering phase has officially kicked off, and wow, this plant is on a mission to touch the sky! The stretch this week has been intense, with the plant shooting up significantly. To manage her vigor and focus her energy on bud production, I’ve had to step in with defoliation and additional lollipopping. This Week’s Highlights Massive Stretch: The plant stretched dramatically this week, filling up the vertical space in the tent. Defoliation: I removed a significant amount of fan leaves to improve light penetration to the lower branches. Lollipopping Redux: Further cleaned up the lower parts of the plant, focusing her resources on the top colas. What I Did Lollipopping: Removed more of the lower branches and leaves that were unlikely to contribute to bud production. Defoliation: Took off some large fan leaves to improve airflow and light exposure throughout the canopy. Nutrients: Continued with the bloom feeding schedule, ensuring a balance of phosphorus and potassium for flower development. Environment Management: Adjusted the light height to prevent light burn and tweaked the fan placement to improve airflow in the now more open canopy. Observations The plant’s stretch has been both impressive and challenging, but the defoliation and lollipopping seem to be working. The top canopy looks well-lit and primed for flower development. No signs of stress from the grooming, which is always a relief during such an aggressive stretch. Challenges The rapid vertical growth is pushing the limits of the grow tent. I’ll need to monitor her closely to prevent overcrowding or light burn. Next Steps Keep monitoring the stretch over the next week—potential supercropping if necessary to control height. Fine-tune the nutrient schedule to ensure the plant has everything it needs as bud sites develop. Maintain low humidity to reduce the risk of mold or mildew during early flowering. Conclusion The first week of flowering has been an explosive start! The stretch is real, but with proper management, she’s looking set to develop some fantastic buds in the weeks ahead. 🌟 Any tips for managing a stretch-happy plant in a tight grow tent?

Hello :) this is my second growth in nature this year, the first one was drowned...... but I hope it won't happen again and I will try to do it with car flowers :) I will leave the little ones on the balcony for another week :) and then they will move to their permanent place :) so far the girls look quite good, knowing that it's only been a week:).

Currently at 2,722 grams with stems and untrimmed. Hoping to get around 800 grams dried. Prior to harvest I run lights for 48hrs

Hagalo-Te Ayudare Siepre😎 PPFD 1500 Co2 1200 28C 60 RH She is doing well all what I want

Week 3 (14-2 to 20-2) 14-2 Watering: Chemdog#1: 117 ml. Chemdog#2: 116 ml. 15-2 Watering: None. No pictures. 16-2 Watering: Chemdog#1: 126 ml. Chemdog#2: 125 ml. 17-2 Watering: None. 18-2 Watering: None. Today i will transplant the plants, i will mix 70% Coco coir with 30% Perlite. The plants go into 18L AutoPots. I use the Airdome combined with an airstone. I covered half of the airdome with coco, and the remaining half with clay pebbles. The rest of the 18L pot filled with the coco mix, and the plants. I gave both plants a 1.5L topfeed, and into the tent they go! The light is at 70% strength, with a distance of 60 cm. 19-2 Temperature: 25.7 degrees (lights on) 20.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 45% (lowest) Watering: None. Light strength reduced to 60% 20-2 Temperature: 25.4 degrees (lights on) 20 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 50% (lowest) Watering: None. There is something weird going on with the leaves of the Chemdog #1.

So far, I'm quite impressed with the bottle one.

🗓️ WEEK 3 (veg) 💧 Her water uptake increased noticeably (about 1 LT/day), and the new leaves exhibit a perfect, healthy color. Due to this increased demand, I raised the EC to 1 to ensure she receives adequate nutrients. 🌱 The difference in growth between the start and end of this week is significant. The plant continues to stay quite short and compact, which I don't mind at all, especially considering the space limitations experienced during my last run. Naturally, this time, both the environmental conditions and the genetics are entirely different. Similar to last week, I concluded the week by removing a few of the lower leaves growing too close to the substrate. This week, I set the light power to 100 watts, keeping the same distance.

🍓 Lovely week for this beauty 🍓 She began to flower together with stretching too 🍓 I upped her water and added both Tarantula / Pirahna to my feed to help during the first weeks of flower. 🍓 excellent week to you. Happy growing ♥️

Eccoci anche qua! In piena fioritura sta esplodendo letteralmente! Grazie a nutrienti di Terra Aquatica e alla strumentazione di Mars hydro che grazie a loro sto raggiungendo livelli mai visti prima! Anche se è due settimane indietro cmq i fiori si stanno sviluppando davvero molto bene! Cime che si stanno sviluppando molto bene e un sacco di resina che li ricopre, davvero una genetica che ha grandi potenzialità! Nn vedo l ora di vedere come si svilupperà nel prossimo futuro! Grazie ragazzi che mi state vicino e continuate a seguirmi un buon 420 a tutti voi! 💪😸🌱🌿🧑‍🌾🍀😽💨🔥❤️❤️

Doing great. Bottoms cleaned, waiting for a day or two to do a major defoliation. 17.11 Vast defoliation. All the bottom leaves and mids. Left around 4 top fan leaves On every branch. 19.11 Plants recovered perfectly, light is back to 100% . Unfortunately my Bluetooth app for mars hydro stopped working. Light cannot pair anymore with the app. Also irrigation is changed to vegetative crop steering.

------------------------- | BLUEBERRY HARVEST | ------------------------- After two sunny days it is harvest time !! - Finally, 16 days of flush - At first thought, the trimming would be easier compared to my previous plants, but when removing more leaves, more buds appearing too hahaha so it took like 4 hours or more..It is not the most accuurate trimming but i had not much time that day, i removed all the leaves and branches after weighting it all.. Like i said on the last post, im harvesting having in mind my bud preferences (the later the better), weather, humidity and sunlight, so the first of the cloudy/rainy days she was chopped in the moring, attending the principle of thc regeneration at night.. Got to say that, i wasnt expecting such production (8 days until it was well dried), this plant started as the season saver because the Cheese started to flower in march, revegged etc.. and i have been rewarded with this BB, a true genetic portent !! If i could, i would keep her as mother forever ^^ The quality is awesome, she looks more like a WW talking about that coat of thc.. Flavour without proper cure, is deep earthy at first, transitioning to a fruity, sweet one, it is a pleasure to smoke, delicious sweet aftertaste.. Maybe, this is the last year with this awesome climate, because im planning to leave Spain.. Thank you for follow and check !!! I hope you liked the diary :) Song of the week : Radiohead - Codex Good Vibes GrowDiaries !! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 000000000000

Fast forward to end of week 4, time to choose and top to start the manifold process, the large fan leaves are bigger than my hand and its starting to smell funky - like skunk a little Week 4 would have started 4/24/2022 - adding this after the fact

She is very frosty and smells like candies. Nice color and the trichomes are passing from clear to milky.

From 7L in 18L Pot and topped.

Time for the stretch! Lots of flowering growth happening now. I can see where the bud spots will be so I’m going to have to stop moving the branching around in the Scrog, also the branches are getting thick and less pliable.

Wow these girls look beautiful! So there was a malfunction a few weeks back with the biscotti gelato and I had to harvest it early, it bent over and well couldn't be saved which I know I would have come out amazing just as these did! I will be harvesting any day now!

So welcome to the final update prior to harvest and it’s covering Weeks 8 & 9 of the Lemon Pie Autoflowering grow. I fertilized one final time early in Week 8 at 5 mls per gallon and have been flushing with PH’d, air bubbled water ever since. They have begun to yellow out a bit and I have been defoliating as needed. All four of these lovely ladies will be chopped over Week 10 which is within the window of 65-75 days as recommended by Fast Buds. Check in next time for the final pictures, harvest info and smoke report. Coming soon…
