OCTOBER 18th to OCTOBER 24TH Sunrise: 08:31 | Sunset: 18:50 | Total Daylight: 10:19 Weather over the past week saw several consecutive days of full cloud cover and rainy periods. Greenhouse has held temperatures during the day, and only dropped below 10C once (Day 168). Good periods of sun on Day 167 and 168, with the forecast looking sunny for the next few days. I suspect that will help along the ripening process as the plants process nutrients from the fan leaves during the fade. There hasn't really been any issues with humidity levels, as it has hovered in and around 40% to 45% RH Both Lemon Orange specimens are near ripe, with many trichome heads cloudy, some clear, and few amber. Suspect it is a matter of days before they are ready to be harvested. DAY 162 2L of plain rainwater (cold) applied to all but Lemon Orange #2 (1L for this specimen). DAY 163 n/a DAY 164 15C in greenhouse in the morning; Cloudy and cool day overall, but greenhouse holding temperatures above 19C and plants are clearly going through senescence. DAY 165 Steady rain overnight, with armer temperatures; Greenhouse held overnight at 17.5C and 50% RH. Cool, cloudy and rainy day (high of 9C, 97% RH, but greenhouse and the associated equipment performing as designed and holding temperatures at 19.5C with humidity ranging from 40% to 45%. DAY 166 Cool and rainy overnight (6C intermittent light rain). Greenhouse held to 16.5C and 41% RH. Noticed some droop so provided 1L of plain rainwater (cold) via drip in the afternoon to each specimen and everyone perked up thereafter. Temperatures reached 19C for much of the day, with 43% humidity. Temperatures outdoors were a high of 7C, with 80% humidity (or more) during the day. Remained overcast for much of the day, but there was a couple of periods of increased brightness. Plants are doing well, all fading; Lemon Orange #1 is nearing full ripeness, and has displayed blue-ish purple tints in upper sugar leaves. and smells of sweet citrus. A few lower leaves are yellowing, but it hasn't progressed to fan leaves near the top of the plant. Pistils are all wilted and receded into calyxes (and have been for several days). Upon inspection, clear trichome heads outnumber cloudy ones, and there are very few if any amber ones. Lemon Orange #2 is furtherest along in senscence and is soon to drop lower leaves. Upper fan leaves are slowly fading from green to yellow. Flowers are large and comparable to Lemon Orange #1 and #2 of the Summer of 2024, have very good trichome production and smell strongly of lemon with an earthy background. Pistils have largely wilted, however those at the apex of flowers are still white. Calyxes have plumped, but they're not quite ripe yet. Upon inspection, clear trichome heads outnumber cloudy ones on calyxes, while at edge of sugar leaves there are quite a few amber heads. DAY 167 Overnight low of 2C, greenhouse held at 12.5C and 41% RH. After a cloudy cool morning, the sun broke through and warmed up the greenhouse shortly after the noon hour. Exhaust fan even came on intermittently to reduce temps below 24C. Humidity was ideal all day, in and around 40%. After noting some droop, applied 1L of plain rainwater (cold) via drip to both Lemon Orange specimens. This may be the last watering of the season. I think it will be possible to decommission the irrigation system for the winter over the coming weekend. I can pull 20L of water for use either for this crop and/or the mother tent. Lemon Orange #1 will be ready any day, but clear trichome heads still outnumber cloudy ones. Purpling of upper parts of flowers in sugar leaves and calyxes is progressing, with some yellowing of fan leaves starting to move up the plant. Flowers appear ripe with pretty much all pistils wilted and receded into their calyxes, but trichomes do not. DAY 168 Greenhouse 9.5C (-2C outside) in the morning with 40% RH. Sunny morning, with greenhouse warming to over 10C by 9:30AM; Exhaust fan kicked in to hold temperatures at 24C just before the noon hour. Both Lemon Orange specimens are showing cloudy trichomes outnumbering clear ones, and outside of the margins of sugar leaves, there are few amber trichomes present. Both plants are a mere few days away from harvest.

DAY 34 of flower🌸🌼 TALL PHENO BEST PHENO BY FAR

This week went good. The girls are pressing on the ceiling. They seem happy

Hunted by me

Going to stop giving her nutes. I think she’ll be ready in 2 weeks. She’s been an easy grow. Her smell, colors and bud density are wonder

About 1 weel behind the rest of her sisters but sjes trying to make up for time and has caught right up with them in size another couole weeks bedore i transplant the plants i am goinf to flower inside will ne planting some outside im around 4 weeks time.

A good week overall! Started out a bit rough, as I noticed some yellowing on the oldest leaves. Unclear exactly what the issue is/was. I'm using soil with organic fertilizers, so over-nutrient seems unlikely to me (very little readily available nutrients, all slow-release, only two waterings up to that point). But some folks on different forums think it may be nutrient burn. Alternatively, it could just be lack of light on these leaves (they are very shaded) and touching the soil. Regardless, while researching I noticed that my humidity was way down, hovering nearing 35%. The tent is in a dehumidified basement so this makes sense. Based on VPD charts this seemed non-ideal for the plant, so I added a small humidifier and a RH PID controller. Humidity stays around 55-60% now, which is a nice compromise between keeping humidity up in the tent and not fihgting the basement dehumidifier too much. I also drilled some holes in the container to help air out the soil faster... a DIY janky airpot :) Throughout the rest of the week, LST ties were adjusted and heavily obscured leaves were pruned off. I also started pruning off bud sites that were pointing downwards, in an effort to reduce clutter and wasted resources. All in all, she's looking pretty good. I'll probably flip in the next week or so. I would love to give it some more time to veg, but have a schedule I need to keep later this fall. This strain supposedly flowers in 6-7 weeks, so we'll see :)

03/27/2020 start of week #4 flower this girl is in full flower mode can't wait for next week. Did final defoiliating today. All is looking well should start filling out soon. Thank you for checking out my diary🙏 Going to raise lite to see if she will stretch more, pistils popping out like crazy can't wait for Calyxs to swell

Woche 10 Die Blüten werden mittlerweile dicker und dichter, also machen wir ihr diese Woche richtig Luft um Schimmel, Mehltau und anderen Unannehmlichkeiten die Tour zu vermiesen. Einen Umzug ins neuerdings teilautomatisierte DIY Zelt gab es anschließend auch noch.

These plants are absolutely filling up the 5x5, if they keep it up I may have to remove one. I filled the reservoir with 6 gallons of water at midnight the other night and by noon the next day it was empty. I am putting in 6-7 gallons of water in res at a time and it is typically gone in 12 hours.

4/16: I’m really not happy with her....she really needs to start swelling up 4/17: seeing a little deficiency with her gave her a little cal-mag bump 4/19: I took off 5 leaves that had patches on them

So just cruising now, last week saw alot of leg work in the defoliation dept, tidying all lower branches, keeping fan leaves to a minimum, and then aiding the scrog by tucking, pulling, anything to keep things moving in the right direction. The challenge now, as stated earlier is to bring all plants ready to flip at the same time, which is a challenge lol, but an enjoyable one. The bench mark here is the scrog, once that's ready everything else can be flipped, the trick is keeping everything else in there low. Atm 6 plants are hooked up to the Res,with another 2 to follow. Currently drinking about 40 liters every 2 to 3 days. It's amazing how much they can drink... Another tucking session, the nets almost filled now, so I'll probably Monday, depending on how it's looking. I replaced the vipra with another maxbloom and moved the vipra into my smaller tent for the Royal Gorilla grow. So far all is going well with no hiccups health wise.
