Well, I managed to do something that I really didn't expect :) the yield is small, just like the pot :) it was a wonderful trip ;) but from now on I will only grow it in big pots :) good luck to everyone :) I will add weight when it is ready :)

Hello Growmies,
I'm thrilled to update you on the plant's progress! In the last week, she has beautifully filled out the scrog. Just yesterday, I flipped her into the flowering stage. This means I'll slowly increase her feeding, although I don't plan to go too heavy on the nutrients since she seems to prefer a lighter touch.
She's quite particular about her nutrients, requiring me to change the reservoir every five days. If I delay, she shows signs of distress on her leaves, but these issues resolve immediately after I refresh the reservoir.
While she's stretching in the preflower stage, I'll continue to guide her growth into the empty areas of the scrog screen.
Also, here's a special offer: use the code ZAMMIGD2023 at Zamnesia's online store to get a 20% discount.
Thanks for dropping by, and I'll share more updates next week!

Lemon Cherry Cookies – Flowering Week 2 🌸
The plant is now fully into flowering. Bud sites are stacking up nicely and the white pistils are shooting out strongly. She’s still growing bushy and filling out the tent well.
📌 Training:
•
Lollypopping next Week
📌 Feeding:
• 1 ml/L Bio-Grow
• 2 ml/L Bio-Bloom
• 1 ml/L Top-Max
• 0.5 ml/L CalMag
• 0.5 ml/L Alg-A-Mic
Leaves look healthy and lush, with a nice green tone and just a light tip fade – exactly where she should be in this phase. Nutrients are being absorbed well, no visible deficiencies or stress signs.

Everything has gone extremely well.
Couldn't ask for q better first grow.
Have been flushing with just pH'd water for about a week.
Starting the ladies dark period today.
The smell is super gassy and pungent. I can't wait to taste these buds 🤤
Six Shooter #2 definitely could have gone another 2-3 weeks. I decided to flush it anyway and maybe use it to make edibles. Next grow I will have a separate drying area and not have to worry about synching the harvest dates.
Big shout out to Fast Buds for these Awesome Genetics 💪🌱💪
Thank you so much to the Grow Diaries Community and all those that helped and like my grow along the way 🙏

Since i put my filter the temperature ir a bit high, i think the extractor in not powerfull enough 😔
All 3 Sensi Skunk are 50cm tall, and starting to flower, Big Bug is 35 cm and only a few pistils..
I realized that i started to count day 1 when it was already day 5 or so.. but no problem 😁
I dont have a ph or ec meter (will be my next investment), i just have those drops for test ph,
And today when i finished mixing the nutes, i tested with those drops and it was to low, (orange color) so i had to take off 1/4 off the solution, and
add tap water, which has high ph and i manage to bring the ph up,(yellow color).
Hope they like this mix of waters and nutes i gave them 😆
13/06/2021
Day 27 (from seed) - 1.7L water+nutes
Day30 - 2L water
Day32 - 2L water + nutes
Big Bud is not looking good 😔 bottom yellow leaves and the upper leaves very pale.. growing very slow compared to the others.
Same water and nutes for all of them, so i dont know whats the issue. ☹️

All are going strong, zkittles OG auto is nearly 30cm bigger than the rest and has started showing bud sites, the rest are not far behind at all. I think they will be into flowering stage at the end of next week and by then hopefully 30-40cm taller. Do si dos is very different, looks short and stout so will be doing some LST on her. Seems to be happy with the nutrients and strengthening nicely. Added another 600w light on 11/12/20 so 3 600w lights in now.

Too battle rain and humidity i decided to unleash her bamboo support for a while.... She dries alot quicker but its also kinda very scary to see her move that much!🧐😬 Yet she handles it for now and is really fatting up. In a few days have nice sun and tomorow ill support her again with sticks! This will be my latest outdoor harvest ever ever cant wait!!

A lot of rain and wind, continuously. Temps have dropped as well.
I’m reading another week or two to chop this plants.
Sativa dominant hybrids did the best, the Fastberry and the banana purple punch did not really develop as the other two.
In specifics the cbd crack developed sizable buds, and the blue dream as well, the flowers are not as developed tight and dense as in the indoor grow. A bit of fox-tailing nothing too expressive.
Minimal work, as per the setup chosen, an no extra nutes this week.

I’m excited to see what RQS have to offer with this little Gem! I’ve been waiting to try another of Royals Automatics, Green Gelato is a strain I very much look forward to with desert strains being at the Top of my list 🥇
It’s been an eventful first few days.. (arnt they always!) she’s poked her head up yesterday so Day 1 is 30/03/20.
Let’s see how this week treats her, I plan to keep a close eye on the environmental conditions and to ensure she’s being fed some gentle nutrients, CalMag to begin with followed by some BioBizz Grow for the extra nitrogen needed at this delicate time 👌
See you all next week, I hope with more leaves to show 🌱✌️ Peace and love, stay safe

And there ready along with there big sister 67 days in flower to achieve the best smell I’ve ever smelt, these plants weren’t touched at all, not one leaf was removed throughout the entire grow, no nutrients, no PH the water, and I think it just shows for its self. same plan for drying and curing as the big one, will be back with a smoke review. Thanks for stopping by

Blüten werden inzwischen sehr Harzig und der Duft nimmt zu.
Dem Giesswasser wird täglich 1:10 Jauche zugegen. Zu dem jedes zweite Gießen Pro Sugar von Grow Pro ein Kohlenhydrat Blütedünger(von der Mary Jane ein Tester). Zu dem gibt es ein bis zweimal in der Woche Seafeed Xtra von envii.
Die ersten Blätter haben sich unten entfernt daher gebe ich gerade wieder Stickstoff zu den Pflanzen. Auch wenn es nur noch diese Woche war danach nur noch Blütedünger.
Zu dem habe ich Basilikum gepflanzt, Dill, Ringelblume und Koriander gesäat am Anfang der Woche und zum Ende noch Lupine und Rot Klee.

Week 6(Bloom):
My vacation was hell for my poor plant 😥 I set up a 7 gallon bucket with a pump and timer. I didn’t test it before I left… The bucket was lower than the plant so I’m assuming once the pump kicked on the rest of the water siphoned into the plant. So she probably took the entire 7 gallons of water on day 1 and staved the entire time I was gone. When I came home she was sitting in about 2 inches of water. The entire tent was flooded. She looked like hell, leaves were showing signs of some deficiencies I haven’t seen before.
I let her dry out for 2 days. It was tough to do, but I wanted to make sure that there was enough air to the roots after that much water for so long. I gave her a full does of nutrients. I really hope she bounces back from this.
With all of that happening she still has matured quite a bit, the buds have sized up a bit. I feel this setback of a week will really affect my yield. Better luck next time I guess, and no more vacations…
I should have taken pictures of it immediately following my return, but it was really hard to stomach. I didn’t want to really show that off. But my current pictures make it look pretty decent. If you look close at the buds in the picture you can really see the damage done.
