Week 2 the plants stretched so much that I ended up having to transplant them deeper into their pots

Aug 31 - fed last on the 30th - plant is thriving, filling out and starting to take shape. Some Pistils are present Sept 2 - Next meal posted above; 50% volume of the last big (3L) meal & 4 days since, this starts a 4 day / 2 day cycle of feeding. (1.5 liters tonight) - this morning I sorted the plant out tucking leaves and identifying its shape. Its continuing to grow out and away, developing a full network of branches/nodes. This morning I can say its starting to rock ** and Yes, I will turn the Fans OFF next time and find some funky tunes instead 🎶 - amending the soil tonight with a layer of Sheep-manure compost, Kelp Meal, Perlite with a bit of Epsom Salts and some real dirt. Treating all 4 plants with ~ 1” or so each. 3rd - I’m liking how the plant is easily filling this 10 gallon pots surface. I only provided a little direction and its off and running now - nutes get bumped-up… 4th - if the soil lets me, 3.5L is the targeted “big feed” tonight; Nope 5th - fed N.L. 3.5L first thing in the morning. Its the weekend, lites on till 12:30 and the transition to Bloom food has happened - tds was a little high, I’ll deal with that 6th -last day of the week - 1/2 feeds will be only water from here on in. Nutes will be in the big feed.

Been too busy to update the last few weeks, but they’re surviving longer then I expected. When I received my new light I did not take in consideration of the heat output and within the first night of use the tent reached a scorching 88 degrees

This week the new growth of the plants transitioned from looking relatively healthy to droopy and yellowed. I wasn't sure what the issue was at first and thought it might be light stress. After more research, I determined that I had what looked very much like a zinc deficiency, which is almost always a symptom of over-watering, which is the most common mistake for new growers, i.e. "Me". I had assumed that adding a good amount of perlite to my soil and using smart pots would prevent me from running in to any drainage issues but I guess not. I was up to 1.5 liters per plant when I realized that it was too much. I also realized I was misreading my syringe which I use to mix nutrients, and that i had been giving only 1/10 of the liquid nutrients that I thought. I'm super embarrassed about the mistake but I'm going for full transparency here, so there it is. Course correction takes places after day 31.

📆 Week 14, 5-11 August 2024 5-11 Aug - Observed and let the plant grow. 📑 Pablo continues to grow! She has not slowed down in water consumption so she may need more time than expected. I’ll have to observe for another week before a decision can be made when to harvest. Being 90% sativa this is not unusual. Pistil hairs are about 75% brown (with new ones developing). Buds are bulking out, continuing to grow and swell, and trichomes are building. The smell keeps intensifying with that of a lemony sour pine. 🍶 6, 10 Aug nutrient solution changed 🍽️ 6, 10 Aug feeding schedule updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient Solution EC 2.0 at 75 degree F 🔆 Light power at 65%, DLI 40 canopy coverage at 12hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

I'm really digging the Chem OG, squat plants with those trademark thick thick thick indica leaves, clearly it's gonna be a heavy smoke lol Wasnt able to get the juices flowing this week, hopefully next week i'll get the smart protein into feed. Started training some of these, did two more defoliations (total of three light defos so far) ... and then flipped them 4 days ago. the f-ing landlord has been attempting to enter the lab according to my security cameras lol, motherfucker !!!! anyway i have to pack up the lab, hopefully i'll be able to complete the grow cycle , but for sure i'll have to move the grow op ... that's my problem, sure but it also means that i'll have to wait in order to set up my perpetual cycle... and of course i cant really take cuttings if i'm moving the lab... why must people be so curious? really wish there would be at least a bit more tolerance around this hobby just so i can sleep peacefully at night... in the mean time , I lowered my lights to 22cm, i heard from someone (forgot who) that it's a good thing to get the lights closer when you flip so that the plant gets that extra energy for the stretch. I'll let know how that works out ! Any comments or suggestions are welcome , veg is over so it's gonna get interesting - drop me a message if you want ! that's it 🚀

First week of flower and the girls seem to be doing really well. I haven't been in the tent this much this grow as I've been extremely busy with work and the outdoor garden. I'm feeding flowering nutrients now and I'm starting to get heavier on the feedings. I wish I could trellis but I didn't have the time and the small plant would make it a little difficult. I will defoliate as much as possible for light penetration and hope for sole big buds. All in all this grow is going very well so far. Excited to see the difference in bud shape between the 3 plants of this strain.

My ph test got spilled and ran into issues on the big girl. Got it fixed and back in action. Added mammoth p and orca. Also added pinch brown sugar. Going to use the greenhouse half for dry and other half as a lung tent. Have new plans for 8 plants monster aero going. Going to have a large single reservoir and a water cooler. Super excited, going to run some exotic strains. A bunch from sweet seeds 🤙🏻

Another week donnnnnnne 💪🏽! Soo yeah the stretch has finished and the buds are stacking I fucked up a little at the start of the week, i set the lights to full power. She’s at 300watts. I turn the timer down to 11hours. But I didn’t realise it turned the timer off by mistake 😬 she ran 24 hours a day for two days 😫. I hope she don’t get pissy with me but so far so good. A part from that there noting to report on. No nutes this week just water. Until next week let’s get it 💪🏽!

Diese Woche verlief ohne weitere Probleme. Alles entwickelt sich wie geplant. Die Thripse sind nach der Neemöl-Behandlung nicht mehr zu sehen – scheint gut gewirkt zu haben. Zur Sicherheit habe ich noch AC-Raubmilben ausgebracht, um eventuelle Nachzügler unter Kontrolle zu halten. Außerdem wurden ein paar Blätter entfernt, um die Luftzirkulation zu verbessern und mögliche Verstecke für Schädlinge zu minimieren. Die Pflanzen sehen gesund aus und wachsen kräftig weiter.

Kinda worried the buds are showing lots of cloudy trichromes and on sugar leaves I am seeing amber. Bud Structure and the way they are still taking their feedings are telling me otherwise. So Im guna keep on trucking. My grows flowering times are never what breeder says too, always longer. Forgot to mention at the start of week 5 I added full tilt by floraflex aswell. Also started watering 8x a day with lights on. One time at lights off. At about 160ml each feeding with about 40-50ml runoff. These small pots are all roots and I feel the high frequency waterings are necessary to keep the runoff EC levels down Wattage 170 EC 700 Humidity 58 Temp 78

Plant fully recovered. I am really surprised because of the buds development. I had to use some vegetation fertilizer for the leaves color.
