November 2nd - 38 days since first sprout. The plants were just top dressed for the flowering phase of the grow, the top dressing is as follows: 3 tbsp of bloom 2 tbsp of mineralized phosphate 2 tsp Alfalfa meal 2 tsp Kelp meal 2 tsp Dolomite lime 1 tbsp Basalt rock dust 2 tbsp worm castings This was for each plant. I don’t see any deficiencies so far in the run, at least none to be worried about. The plant that actually has NO training to it besides a structural support stick actually has yellowed out tips, I couldn’t figure out why but it doesn’t seem to be an issue yet. My main cola for my middle back plant unfortunately snapped when performing some LST on her, completely wrecked me but I just kept it going cause what else can I do? Yknow? lol

Day 31 flower wk 5 Welcome to frosty town. Sour diesel has shown up tot he party bringing snow holy crap. This was the plant that has been the dwarf the whole time all through veg and even the first cpl weeks of flower. This girl stretched and started stacking the trichomes. It smells like your in a tiny 5x5 room with ppl peeling oranges. Sour diesel buds are small but im hoping they stack on some weight in the next 30days Northern lights are my ideal bud structure, fat cone buds just stacking and also starting to get frosty as well. I think Northern lights is gonna be my big producer. Grandaddy Purp. I can tell this girl is slow grower. Shes starting to stack and has good internodal spacing but is taking her time and will likely be the last one in the tent This stage of growing is exciting but kinda on autopilot as im just watering every other day and just letting them do their thing

A lot more happening this week! As shown in the pics, and as suspected, I have a manganese deficiency. I've been keeping my pH level at 6.2 in coco, manganese is taken up best by the plant below 6.0 pH. Dropping my ph level to 5.8 pH, and flushing with lower pH, hopefully it will solve the issue over the course of a few days. I made a new frame for a SCROG, with a "custom bend" in the CPVC pipe on both ends. The bend will allow me to take advantage of the slack material in the sides of my 4x4 tent. I'd previously taken 4" out of all the upright poles to shorten the tent so it would fit in the room due to low ceilings, meaning I had extra slack in my tent walls. The bend in the net frame pushes the sides of the tent out to 5 foot wide. My first SCROG net was a 6" mesh from Amazon, immediately knew I wanted a smaller mesh. Next time around I built my own with a 4" mesh and used the 4" for several grows. This time I decided to go with an even smaller, 3" mesh, and already I like it better. I don't really see myself going much smaller than 3" mesh though. It seems to work well, and any smaller and it may be too tight trying to work the plant through the opening sometimes, which if not careful, will damage the plant. I usually use a & gal cloth pot, grow off rules stated we 0had to use a 5 gal pot. Seeing as I only had 7 gal on hand, I was stuck picking up a Root Farm 5 gal cloth pot locally, as you can see, the roots didn't really stay contained, nor did they "air prune", i had to tear them off before installing the net above. On the last day of week 6 I finally got my net installed, and the plant SCROGged. I should have put the net in place a week or two earlier, it would have been easier to manipulate the plant, however the plant will still have a week to recover. I tie the net in place above the plant, and slowly lower it down, as I bend and super crop the main stalk over parallel to the net, and work all the branches underneath and spread them out. As the plant grows I'll continue to push branches back down through the net and moving them out to the next hole. This will greatly increase yields by allowing light to more bud sites, keeping all buds the same height and thus the same distance from the light. small budsites on a vertical branch, will transform into their own cola once the branch is laid on its side. Instead of a Christmas tree type of plant, with one large main cola, and smaller and smaller buds as you move further down the plant, you end up with a bunch of colas that are all close to the same size, and more importantly, the same level of maturity. The SCROG method, combined with super cropping, and defoliation has greatly increased my yields. As the plant is getting worked into the net, I'll defoliate where necessary, ie a huge fan leaf covering bud sites, however for the next several weeks I'll be defoliating so mush every night or two, systematically trimming off all fan leaves, and stripping everything below the net, and any small bud sites that wont produce well. Usually by the time I'm half way through the flower stage there are no big fan leaves left to be found. It helps with light penetration, which results in a higher quality, higher quantity yield, as well as airflow, which will help prevent White Powdery Mildew and other molds etc. Once a fan leaf is 14 days old, its ability to photosynthesize light, starts to degrade. Once it reaches a certain point, the leaf drains more energy from the plant, than it's giving the plant. My best yields have been from heavily defoliated plants, my last grow I couldn't physically defoliate quite as heavily as usual, and I ended up about 25-30% less bud than expected

I wanna see what’s different and how much better this new RF3 is if it is the seeds was definitely different the RF3 seed was huge compared to the old one the both germinated about the same but the new one popped out the dirt first so we’ll see I Put all three in a paper towel and 24 hrs later they popped and 24 hrs after in the soil both purple punch’s have popped up and the gorilla cookies is just about too I’ve got my fox farm soil all mixed up and my new fabric pots should be here any day I’m going to transplant into them I’ll keep yall updated happy growing peace hope you enjoy all advice or pointers is welcome #KYGROW will get you 15% off your whole fastbuds order and will help me out a lil to so remember the next time you put in a order

Hello everyone ... please excuse me if I start the diary from the end of 4th week of flowering, but I'm new and wanted to post something right away :) Anyway ... I have these three beautiful girls ... two are in light mix + coco + perlite + micorizze(MICOSAT F {Italian product}) + guano Kalong and Atami worm humus ... instead one(SSOIL written in photo) is a super soil with biobizzlight mix / biobizzcoco / Atami worm humus + leonardite + alfalfa + kelp + krill + azomite + basalt + calcium carbonate + phosphorite + neem soil(1/3substrate ) and micorrize ..in to the top only light-mix/perlite and coco with a little bit of humus ... they suffered defoliation, also caused thrips and various problems that let me to conclude that it was better to follow this path ... ah and the grow rom the walls have been removed, hot cause ..... The plants imself are very vigorous and resistant ... fairly uniform growth, takes a lot from Critical, and even perfumes are very similar for now, always tending more to Critical with light notes of kush ... but it is still early ...... Ps. Sorry for the English 😅. Update On advice, I decided to move one of the three (the one with the super soil) in a separate diary, also to be clearer and more precise ... sorry for the confusion, but I'm learning😅🙏✌️

Big thicc buds. Hard to imagine what these will look like at the end in about 3 more weeks. Used twine over the last few weeks to individually tie up about 15-20 branches to the three stakes I put in. A trellis would’ve helped a lot, but she’s sharing a room with plants earlier in flower now, which is why I decided not to use one a few weeks back.

Have fliped the switch to 11/13, as suggested by Dj Short, the blueberry strain creator. I’m experimenting a bit with light schedules, in veg I have used 6/2 x3 , so the lighting was divided in equal periodes of 6 light 2 dark, that provided a more stable climat, girls responded well. The ignitor to try that was a few articles that suggested the plantas have a limited amonth of light that can be processed and that helps absorb and process more since they have fragmented rest periods. I’m wanting to experiment with some deep red diodes, IR and UVA diodes. I have taken some clones of this mistery strain that is growing great, and the veg tent will be their home for two months Until I harvest the girls. The HLG leds are working great, and was very fun to build, I’m not sponsored by this guys, by the way, but the outcome is just amazing by what I has used to... My next DIY project is a Aeroponics cloner machine!

Hot and some rainy days which has been great for the growth of the girls. They are flourishing everyday. Responding well to the Grow and CalMag nutrients too. You can tell that the one I had topped is slightly wider than the untouched one. Might experiment a bit more with the topped one to get more of a lollipop look. Still have issues with the Japanese Beatles but I've noticed them getting attracted to the flowers in the garden so hopefully they stick to those instead of gnawing on the leaves of the girls.

Es ging stetig bergauf in Woche 2. Geplant ist toppen und später ein scrog zum stützen und zum Angleichen der Höhe. Der Wurzelstimulator von House & Garden performed mMn sehr gut, keinerlei negative Reaktion der Pflanze. An Tag 15 wird getoppt und dann bin ich gespannt auf die Blüte.
