Day 84 - June 25 June 25 - 09.30AM Trichomes still not ready at 50/50 milky to cloudy. Soil is still moist. Will water either late this evening or tomorrow morning. I suspect this will be the second or last watering before chop. June 25 - 09.00PM Removed a dead leaf - I want to remove some of the dying leaves on the colas, as underside of plant has a beautiful purple hue to the leaves. June 26 - 08.45AM Trichomes are starting to turn milky, with 60/40 milky to cloudy ratio. Will water this evening as pot is getting lighter + soil isn't as moist. June 26 - 01.20PM Purple is here. I think it's time to chop tomorrow as I'm seeing more ambers. I'm noticing some bright green growth which I hope isn't the start of nanners. June 26 - 01.20PM Watered 3L. Chop tomorrow. June 27 - 00.00AM CHOPPED (Day 86). . June 27 - 00.00AM Inspected detached calyx with strange (I suspect pistil) growth. Many amber trichomes found. Strange, given colas I inspected were all cloudy with no amber, but this calyx (located at centre of plant) had plenty of amber trichomes. Perhaps this is due to recieving a higher than expected DLI at hotspot of light. . June 27 - 00.00AM Underside of Buds are underdeveloped in comparison - easily due to light blockage. I aimed not to defoliate as she entered flower, but perhaps with better LST and leaf tucking I could've produced more even yield. . June 27 - 00.00AM Trimmed Fan leaves and mostly necrotic foliage - want to avoid bud-rot at all costs, but I may have over-defoliated. . June 27 - 00.00AM Drying hanging upside down with oscilating fan above (2/10) and one beneath driving air toward a wall of the tent. There's also an extraction fan at the top of the tent. . June 27 - 00.00AM Humidity 60-62% & Temperature 64-66F. . June 27 - 02.45PM Temperature is rising in the tent to 69F, inside a sealed bathroom room. Sealed Bathroom offers no light leakage, but I might need to open the door and allow light + cool air in. . June 27 - 03.45PM Moved tent out of bathroom to get cooler air. Tent temperature was just under 70F. I've likely lost some flavour over a few hours - but now that it's in a cooler environment (with slight light leakage) - things should improve. . June 27 - 03.45PM Temperature & Humidity are 66F and 60% respectively. . June 27 - 04.00PM (16 hours since chop) . June 27 - 04.05PM Added portable cooling unit to intake, this should drop temperature by a degree or two hopefully. Ensured Fans weren't directly in path of buds. . June 27 - 04.30PM Humidity is 66%, I've increased oscilating fan speed to 5/10 to combat this. . June 27 - 08.50PM Humidity is 60%. Temperature is 66F . July 1 - 09.00PM Branches still bend - not snap. Will trim and start cure process tomorrow. Leaves shrivelled up. . July 2 - 10.00AM Rough Trim, and placed into cure jars. 58% RH and 60% RH Probably should have harvested last night. Will maintain RH in jars via burping. Roughly 2oz (56g) of bud harvested.

Hi growmies. Hope we are all well and still sane?. This week has been another roller coaster for the ladies. Amnesia Haze has gone crazy with growth this week. She has taken over 25 L of water this week to cope with the heatwave we are having. It has been up around 24°c just before lights off at 12pm. I am glad i decided to use the nights for the lights on period now. I did lose the 5th node on the Amnesia sadly but the remaining 4 nodes are little powerhouses of growth tips. She has also reached the pots edges after i supercropped them earlier in the week. They had bounced back by the next day .!!!. I love this strain so far.. The remaining ladies havevhad to cope with some issues this week. Heat and light intensity from the new Mars at 100% power took a toll on their chlorophyll production abilities. I have since dropped the power by 25% and raised the light a little too. The yellowing has not worsened and new growth below is looking good so far. The worse affected was the Red Hot Cookies but now they both look settled root wise , they have improved the last few days too. I did a pH check and got 7.2ph so I did use some ph down to drop it to 6.0. There is a huge difference in the 3 girls and it is shocking to see what just 2 weeks germination gap can cause. I do know the NFT can catch up once it gets its roots into the matting more. Fingers crossed we see some improvements this coming week.. Be well.

We are starting quite well, it is beginning to show its first signs of flowering, we expect a flowering of approximately 6 weeks that could extend to 8 weeks depending on the fattening let them have the buds

This is the whole flowering cyclus posted in one week.

Total harvest = 320Grams of buds Will update photos in the near future The buds are different now than when the videos where taken I will updated soon with the photos of the cured buds.

Plants are responding well, still on a very light regimen, using only compost tea, declorinated tap water. Stem is thick, and strong, has a many colas shooting up with minimal training at the moment. Leaf color is vibrant, and dark. Using compost tea in the third watering as usual. > Compost tea with a twist #3 - 1 cup earth worm castings -1/4 of a cup bokashi -5 tsp recharge -1 tsp shell flour -1 tsp azomite Did not have organic molasses so preferred not to put anything, as the recharge and the bokash i use have some, originally is better to use some in pure form like 1/3 of a cup. EC after 24h is around 0.5 - 0.6, ph close to neutral. So used in pure form, possible to dilute if needed. So far I did not PH the water, only filtering it, gave a bit up on RO for now as the water discard is just insane... probably takes 2 gallons + to make one pure... Just not ecologic... so I have detached the membrane for now and am using two filtering steps, carbon and another one... This diary is probably the nightmare of any nutrient company. Note that Recharge is not needed or azos, I’m using because I have laying around here, a substitute would be some sprout seed tea. My choice for the organic, was to be able to abort ph, have a cleaner product, try something new, and reuse my soil...

Halfway through flower and the tent smells like someone dropped a cheese platter in a forest. Buds are stacking, pistils popping, and the frost is starting to show. Fed her bloom juice, MPK sprinkles, CalMag snacks, and a fishy cocktail midweek. Stretch is slowing down, but the girl is bulking up like it’s gym season Next week: less N, more K, and watch the trichs sparkle #BlueCheeseBloom #Week4Funk #CheddarInTheTent

Last couple of days... No watering from today, (Day 129) and the light will be switched off as well from tomorrow (Day 130) so I will harvest them approx on Day 132 or 133 on the 18th week :)

11/4/20-Day 29- watered #1 300ml, watered #2 200ml 11/7/20-Day 32- watered 300ml #1. No water for #2, possibly some shore flies in soil, gonna let it dry some. 11/10/20-Day 35- watered 300ml #1, no water for #2. Lowered lights to 12”, beginning to notice preflowers

10/08/2024 Lights On! Week 8 12/08/2024 Lights On! Looking good; phattening up! Mid-day: Dimmed to 420watts The buds are right under the canopy are showing signs of slight fishtailing. Reasons for dimming light! As they start to mature dimming of the light for 2-3days is needed. They are getting bigger! Will have to raise scrog net soon for support 🙏🙌👍 14/08/2024 Lights On! Increased light to 490watts! Mid-day! Video 60fps FHD Light needs turning down Dimmed backs to 420watts!

Everything is going well with our big girl, switched to ph treated tap water which seems to be working well. It comes out of the tap at 7 ph and around 80 ppm. I have used lemon juice to get it around 6.86 ph after mixing in my nutrients. 2/11- Very hard to water big girl as she seems to be drinking really fast and theres not much room; i'm having to water everyday. Not sure how long i'm going to veg but starting to worry about height for flower in my 3x3

A new week and luckely the weather is not so warm anymore so hope have luck for the 3/4 last weeks. And say hello to my little friend on photo 3. The buds getting bigger and bigger and starting to smell Day 104 and thit some little lollipopping

Good leaf growth this week. She looks very overwatered at the time of pictures. 😭 I will let her dry out for a few days now to see if that perks her up a bit.

April 14 - 21 Steady as they go. Some minor defoliation.

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 30/01/2020 - One more week to go ! Trichomes still transparent. 01/02/2020 - Gave her 1,5l RO water

Week 4 coming to a close, temps are way better now. shes also beginning to ramp up her watering intake. Watered 4L, 5.9PH, 1ml/L Power Roots and 4ml/L Grow on Day 22 Watered 5L, 5.9PH, 1ml/L Power Roots and 5ml/L Grow on Day 26 Did some defoliation on 22 and 24. I think i overdid it for my likings but oh well, she'll manage. Scrog Net is ready for deployment on Day 27.🙌 Shes looking fine, healthy and has a lush green color, so i ramped up the nutes, cause thats what i do.
