Hello Diary, Purple Lemonade has finished the first week of flowering, the flowers are forming nicely all over the plant and it has been 28 days since the beginning of the vegetation. Purple Lemonade has continued its rapid growth, this week it has grown 20 cm and is now slightly taller than 50 cm. The main cola has risen more dominantly above the other branches, it is forming nicely. The leaves are a healthy dark green color and do not show any signs that the plant is missing anything. Summer temperatures are slowly falling, nothing significant but every degree of lower temperature makes me happy. This week the average was 29 degrees and rarely exceeded. The humidity in the grow box is around 50% which is ok. Watering is a little more frequent, every three days, and sometimes every other day. I still add CalMg but this week I started adding BIO-BLOOM Fertilizer. I prepare 9 liters of water, add the listed nutrients and lower the p.H. to 6.0. I water all three plants on the Farm with this amount. A few days before the end of the week, I cleaned the bottom of the plant to allow better air flow and to make it easier for me to water. I also turned up the LED lights to 80% at the beginning of the week. Here's what the past week looked like. 15/08/2024 - Day 22. Watering. The soil was very dry and the leaves were slightly drooping. I watered each plant with 3 liters of water. I put 1ml/liter CalMg and 1.5 ml/liter Bio-Bloom Fertilizer in the water. 18/08/2024 - Day 25. Watering. Again the soil is very dry and the leaves are slightly drooping. I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier. 21/08/2024 - Day 28. Official end of the first week of flowering. After taking photos, I watered all three plants at the Farm. Purple Lemonade - Day 28. - 52 cm That's all I have for this week. See you soon and thank you all for your comments.

Week 15. Had a look at the trichomes on the a few sites. 50%cloudy some embers rest are clear. And getting very long in comparison with her sister zkittlez organic. This bud seems to be hitting that 21% THC better, yet, lots of things are still an unknown. For example the exact THC/YIELD /QUALITY. Finished with the grow nute, to see can I bring more resin/trichomes. Seems to have been ok. Won't know it's true effects if any for a wk or so. Moved back on to bloom and bloom nutes, root stims, enzymes. Gave a hard flush to get rid of any old grow left and clear the weeks salts. 31/3/22 Led grow bars arrived. They sent me the wrong1s. So contacted them and they said instead of sending the 4 bars I ordered they sent this set that is better than the 4 and also gave me back my all the money for that part of the order and gave me 40e light bars for free. 31/3/22 Installed both 48x2 led chip bars 10 both bars are 5 watts each. Should help increase bottom-mid growth as it lags behind. The SF-1000 Light is great this is just for the rest of the huge zkittlez to catch up. RH is in a good range today 54%RH for the whole day since I woke up. Slowing down on fluid uptake. Use to be over 2l before she'd throw anything back. 1.8l is her limit now. I know I'm abit all over the place. But after looking through my nutes. I missed out on giving Nirvana, yeah the soil grows got it once a week but in coco meant to be from wk3-6 of bloom currently we are in week 6, just started so gonna squeeze in a weeks worth of Nirvana and its increased the PPM by 250 aswel as the. 5 increase in some PK focused nutes and some extra silica for the plant as she is weak and has HST'ed 3 colas and 2 stems. So, gonna try put her back on it. I really have been all over the place with giving nutes, more of a case of tweaking things to figure out what's right. After my beginners buys I can now say I can find the same if not better nutes that do the very same thing in the AN line or the GH tripack. They also have kleen roots that's like voodoo juice. Must cheaper, and then we have senzyme and ancient organic earth tea for piranha and tarantula which cost 70e a L as opposed to 12e a L for senzyme and ancient tea. It's just a case of shopping round and not getting sucked in my big words. Check out diaries that these fungi/enzymes are used and they work just as good as the expensive stuff. Also the jungle juice micro is a great trace element nute. 2/4/22 Stacking on lots of nice looking terps colors of purple in the bud. With lots of sugar balls. Hopefully buds will get bigger by about 10-20% hard to see but still about 15-20 white hairs. Much more lower down the bud it's it's like 50/50 stigmaVSambers Decided for the plants benefit I'm doing a 30min hard flush and restarting the whole nute programme again. Just got a little run-off back from a 1.8l feed and was 2200ppm 800 nearly more than the feed. 2/4/22 Did a hard flush today. Took 3 mins to get it down from 2200 to tap water level then threw 500ml of filtered water with cal mag extra 1ml/l. She was so sticky just now after lifting moving her colas with my arm to the side to take the TDA pic. Fuck she is so sticky. I took the HST-ed bud today. Weighted in at 1.9 wet after trim. Needed a sample anyways. It's looking like I'm going to have to do a 2 fucking part harvest. As there is just waaaayyyy too much undeveloped bud sites to harvest the plant I'd be losing over 1/2 of my harvest. So I've decided when the top 5 nodes are done. I'm gonna take them and and set the plant up evenly and give her another 2-3 wks to finish and I should get way more if I bring her to harvest in total in 2-3wks. I'd be losing soooo much. It's hard to show you guys what I mean. All you can see is the top bud sites. But that's only 30% of the plant. At least 70% is behind 50 of that is so far behind it will not catch up in time as long as these top 5 colas are taking all the energy and nutes, it's the only thing that makes sense at this stage. With the added lights I know there only 10 watts but I'm hoping that will increase my mid sites. I'm gonna just try take as little off as I can but max on what I do take off should hopefully bring her about and I'll be for sure giving the rest of her a 3 day rest period in the dark. Oh btw. If anyone has any idea as how to go about this message me. I've read up all I can. I NEED PPL WHO HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE. So heres my plan. I'm gonna lower down the wk before I take the colas back down to a 16-8 then I'm gonna let her rest for 24hrs with full light water and so on, (she'll be on flawless finish for the week), hoping that'll keep what I need alive to finish her off, cause if she dies on me, I'm fucked. I know 24hrs without light is not good. But 50/50 she'll pull through and go right back to work after I take her colas off I'll hard flush her and back on nutes for 2-3weeks. What u guys think? 4/4/22 GREAT UPDATE...I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY 😁😁😁😁 Finally, some bud anyone would be proud to have produced. It wasn't even fully done, the bud I dried in a box took 4 days. Got .45 back from 2.1 it was fucking AMAZING!! The bud isn't even done, wasn't rested. Cured and the taste/stone is top class. That alone I had a joint and a bong. And I'm BAKED. Defo more leaning on the indica side 75/25 Sativa. But left decent amount of trichs in the 3tier grinder. Defo needs a flush and to be finished she's going to be pushing near 20%THC. She already nearly there tbh but that bud alone had about 40% clear trichomes. And she's still more indica than sativa. The organic bud is 12-15% the 100 sativa. This bud, bloodshot eyes, heavy head stone. Munchies galore. I'm stuck to the couch. I WANT MORE. Roll on baby roll on, I'm so tempted to chop her. Not gonna happen though. I'm over the moon though. TBH i was worried that this bud would be 12-15%. Thank God it's not the case. It's powerful. Doesn't take much to get high. Idk about you but if I don't get that from bud within am hour I'd go through 1.5-2gs by myself to get what. 5 gets you in 10mins. I've slowly started to feel the Sativa high, uplifted, really happy after about 5mins of smoking my joint/Bong. Then 10-15 mins later bye bye sativa and HELLO indica. Heavy head high the last 2 hours 30-40mins in I got the munchies heavy. KFC sorted that, I dunno about you, but a weed is like a nice glass of wine and the weed made my meal go down a treat. Will be running it off for the next week but it was worth it. Think I'll have myself q little sleep now, in a little goof 2 hours in. 100% NOT A DAY TIME SMOKE. I can hardly operate this phone and I'm having trouble remembering what I'm writing, oh and am I raml8ng. 🤣🤣 night night at 6pm. I also took a 2.5 gram tester, it was a bud that I k8nds broke off when checking for stigma' (white pistils underneath the bud at the top part of the top cola broke off and this bud has purple notes in it, it's the very same looking bud that is in yday picks, That's when I broke a 2.4 wet purple resin/trich balls bud. It glitters in the light looks fill of trich balls. She's 75 cloudy. Some milky turning cloudy and about 10% long clear tops with milky bottoms, but the bud was taken by mistake just as the light turned off so it had no rest period at all. Hopefully if I can keep the RH low I'll be able to sort out my plants and even make them stronger over the next few weeks. BTW, For coco, taratula&piranha are very expensive, yea they have some benefit in coco of course. But there is much cheaper alternatives in the AN line. Senzyme will help break down old roots like tarantula, help nute uptake and also has piranha properties. Also mixed with ancient earth organic tea and that is more than enough fungi/enzymes for coco. But if you don't mind spending the money, you can use them but they are best in soil. Even do a 50/50 soil light mix/coco that alone is the best recommend substrate for doing autos/fems, especially if you are wanting to make the most out of these expensive nutes. Voodoo ((Tarantula)) ((Piranha ))) Use these cheaper subs for coco with the voodoo juice. SENZYME+ACIENT EARTH ORGANIC TEA. 6/4/22 Okay, so things, not so well. She's stopped taking nutes. And cut drinking by a 1/10. No nute change from the feed. She's in nute lock. It's cause the top parts are done. And they are the main colas but everything else coming from them is miles behind. So, my minds made up. I'm going to top harvest this week. I've no choice. She isn't taking nutes. If I don't do it now the bud/larf below will mature into light airy bud....larf. gotta get her back taking nutes. 6/4/22 YAY, Finally a dehumidifier that works. This thing literally has been running 1 hr. With the grow room door being closed the RH can drop to 45% but with the HEPA filter the smell is gone out the house and it has heated the whole house, it's crazy what this 20l dehuimifier does. Bonkers. Finally I am hitting peak conditions for growing, when my door is closed I can get the RH in the tent to hit 70%+ and now with this machine I can get it as low as 45%, it's only been on 1hr. In my tent this is how much electric it uses. Look at the pic above 218watts in 20c temp 60% RH that's our house when the heating is off by turning it on it drops in the range of 50% after a couple of hours. temp is 23% so I'd say it uses in the mid range so maybe 230watts. Yes, the electricity bill will go up but bye bye gas, as this thing heats out whole house much better. Worth the money, if you have high RH in your tent don't put a dehuimifier in your tent get a good 20l at least or 12l if you keep your grow room door closed. This one is 259£ 330euro. It A energy rated. Won tons of awards and with not having to use the central heating anymore it'll actually even itself out. Great buy, it's really going to transform what I can get out of the bud as for quality and with my tent getting to 70%+ with the grow room door closed and then when in flower I can get it down to 45% and maybe that'll get even better. SAME DAY: So with my RH under perfect cond I think waiting any longer would be madness as I will risk losing a massive bloom in the mid-lower section that's full of stigma that If I don't act fast will end up turning into lots of amber pistils like little balls of stigma. I was preparing for this: I've been giving her water the last 3 days, today is the third. Overfed her to get run-off and was 1650, (meaning the top colas have stopped feeding). Hard flushed got ppm down to 210 and then after 2 hours through 500ml of flawless finish 2ml/l dose. This is meant to be given for a week, but here's the thing, I'm only harvesting 30% of the plant. Maybe will push it to 40% I'm taking the top colas any any well formed enough bud with no more than 30% of stigma. So 70% amber pistil buds will be taken. The 30% is just white pistils that could do with another week. But I'd rather take 10% and help the plant max out and hopefully she'll finish up. Cause if she stalls I'm gonna be left with a lot of poxy larf. So, sadly the flush will be halted t9morrow come 12pm I'm putting her into 12hrs of dark and taking what I need to. Hard flushing the flawless finish, let her drink up plain for till the next day and then back on a 800-1200 ppm depending how the plant reacts. I really don't know what's gonna happen. I know the top colas will be harsh but I've had a tester and to be honest I'm more than happy with it, I won't be curing the colas it will only being out the chemicals in her. 30-40% of petty dark good bud, little harsh but more than good enough, she'll been in nute lock the last week anyways so. She barley taking 3-400ppm out of her feeds and that's just a guess. Let's see what happens. And there wasn't any way I could of kept the top colas going as the plant is confused. I know that might not make sense. But the plant feeds from the top down, if the top isn't drawing up feed it's not drawing it full stop. Hence why the lower-mid growth has stalled. This is more of a see what can I save now. I could either just let her finish for the next 2 weeks. Takes what's on top and be happy with 50-60% larf. So, 40% of good bud and hopefully beem able to briny the other 60% to full harvest makes more sense to me. If it fails it fails the bud will finish off the way it would of, or worse it'll just finish. Let's see what happens over the next 48hrs. BTW dehuimifier works 1hr on 1 off goes between 45RH to 53 over the hours it's not on. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime

First week of Budding went well. Growth was about 4-6in. Hairs appeared in some areas. Trimming some of the big Fan Leaves today to make room for more light toward the bottom of the stock. I wasn't anticipating the plant to get this large I'm running out of room probably should have started budding a week earlier. But we will see how this turns out... Since I saw hairs signaling flowering, I did Start with its first watering with Tiger Bloom.

Le piante hanno un bel aspetto, le foto non gli rendono giustizia. Questa è stata l'ultima settimana di fertilizzanti, grazie Plagron i vostri prodotti hanno velocizzato la crescita in modo sano senza problemi eccetto per il fenotipo B3 che ha avuto qualche accenno di bruciatura, ma niente di rilevante. Per il resto tutte e 4 hanno dei profumi diversi molto fruttati e dolci🤤🤤.

DAY 62 1 day early of start of new week, just waiting for some more ambers, nearly ready🎉 Still running RO only, 40 PPM. Still keeping it pH’d, it likes to drop slowly still. However, I don’t get why pH is important during flush tho. Not like I need to keep nutrients available for plant to suck up... 🤷‍♂️ I’ve been considering drilling some holes into the base of the main stem as to simulate the stalk-splitting technique. Maybe it’ll help speed things up... I’ll check trichs again tonight when lights kick on and make an executive decision and post updated pictures if it’s a go ahead. Day 63 I split me some stalks! Uploaded a video of the procedure. Day 64 This phenotype is developing purple leaves? Photos uploaded. Day 65 Harvesting... Day 66 More Harvesting... Day 67 Taking clones, moving veg plants to bloom tent. This grow is drying.

June 21st : Figured I started off last week with a video update So i'd do the same this week. Buds are really fattening up. Making my mouth water when I stare at them. Smell is very strong when the exhaust is off and the tent open. Getting Hot around here lately 106 outside today. Trying my best to keep them cool but it seems like a losing battle. Good thing I have that co2 tank. 🙌 June 22nd : Decided to try out my Digital Microscope tonight see what I could see. WOW am I going to have fun doing Macro Shot's! This is gonna be so much fun! Nothing else done with the plants except some admiration! June 23rd : Didn't have time to get to pictures darn real life. June 24th : Watered tonight as they were showing signs of drooping from under-watering. I expected as much due to the recent 106-111F. Temps around my area lately. Hard to keep them all cool but trying my best. Everything's looking good as far as I can tell. 👌 June 25th : Tried my hand at more closeups boy was it a failure. Gotta turn off those damn fans next time *lol* 3 out of like 40 clicks were "ok". Oh well.. Another day.. June 26th : Had the breaker for the room my tent was in keep tripping after adding the t5 lights to everything that's already on the same circuit.. had to move the ac to another circuit. June 27th : Ended up bumping the timer switch on the lights to always on and ended up giving the girls 18 hours of light. 😭 Praying nothing goes hermie.. Didn't have time for pics the last two nights as I've had previous obligations.

I don’t know if it’s the rapid stack pots combined with the rain science grow bags, or the green planet nutrients but these autoflowers are huge at 54” tall. The largest I’ve ever grown indoors. I’ve always wanted to grow a purple pheno and now that moment has come. These autos are going to be show stoppers!!! I’ve very excited to share with you all.

Girls are on day 4 of being in their forever pots, 5 gal. I am a noob and over watered my plants, thus the curled leaves and I had a very small amount of mold on Dorothy's soil. Removed it with a spoon and did a good search for how often and where to water. Watered the whole soil, not just near the roots. I will be waiting until the soil is dry before watering going forward and I'm hoping the girls will get to 100 percent health. My grow tent comes tomorrow and they will be transferred into the tent with grow lights and a fan. Rn I have a basic house light on them which I'm thinking will stunt them initially. Hopefully the grow light brings the girls all the way to life I will update with them in the grow tent tomorrow. Also my 4th seed officially never grew a taproot, so RIP Sophia 😥Please leave any and all tips, as I am walking blind and depending on a few websites for my advice.

Buds are flowering up super nice! Had a tiny issue where I thought it was much worse then it was (I got sum water on the leaves and it burnt circle shaped burns on them) I worried it was a fungal disease or something. I removed the leaves in a panic, and since haven't had any issues! Anyway the smell is amazing already I'm getting notes I really didn't expect to smell on a Superboof cross! Almost remiscent of Creature Feature or Acapulco Gold with a bit more gas! It is only week 4, so ideally the Terps should transform. I am loving it so far The bud structure is looking amazing, the top nugs are almost spear shaped which is really cool, some of the buttom bugs are almost spear shaped as well but more circle/fat. Standard nug look. It's beginning to stack some frost on as well! I have a good idea the nugs are going to have a nice lumpy - spear shaped buds. Almost looks as if the tops are foxtailing which would be really cool too! Amazing genetics. Every issue I've encountered has been so quickly corrected and bounced back. No herms, definently high grade genetics and I'm happy to be working with Homegrown Genetics to be able to post this seed to harvest and share with everyone!

Hello beautifull people! These are the final weeks. Started flushing this week. Strictly water! Im having a hard time keeping the humidity low... So i placed two passive dehumidifiers. 1 in and 1 outside the tent. And i have a fan blowing air over the buds. Lets hope that will suffice. Dont want to use high power using equiment. Power here is hella expensive. Added a vid displaying juicy nugs.

The temperatures, humidity, height, and watering volume(if measured) in grow conditions are all averaged for the week. The pH is soil pH. Any watering done by me is well water which is 7.6 pH and 50° F. Any listed nutrients are ml/gallon of soil spread evenly across the top of the soil. Daylight hours this week will be below 13.5. I can't use halves in the grow conditions, so I'm noting here. Day 1 we had a high temperature of 78°F. Skies were overcast with all day rain and mist. It's about as bad of weather as u can get for cannabis in flower. Let's see how these fastbuds hold up to 💯 fu weather. Day 2 we had a high temperature of 88°F with clear sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons per pot with well water. Day 3 we had a high temperature of 74°F with sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons Day 4 we had a high temperature of 79°F with partly cloudy skies. I watered about 5 gallons of well water. These girls are getting close to mid flower, but for now seem to be happy with the nutrients I top dressed with. Day 5 Week had a high temperature of 85°F with sunny skies. I watered about 5 gallons of well water per pot. Day 6 I didn't get photos but it was a normal day. Lots of sunshine highs about 80°F. I watered about 5 gallons. Day 7 we had a high temperature of 79° F. These girls haven't shown any signs of hunger. I think I'll feed some tomorrow. Today I watered about 5 gallons and treated with Growers Ally fungicide. Overall this week was a success. Their growth height has been achieved. They are in full flower and kicking up a nice citrus smell.

Where flower? lol. Seriously though, I've been on a flowering light cycle for a week already now with zero signs of flower. I suppose it is quite similar to their mother, which also took quite some time to kick into flower while the days were shortening. Either way, we're luckily not in a situation of needing flower nor lacking space in the tent, so we can keep on keepin' on. Normally I would start to incorporate a low dose of bloom booster starting this week, however due to the lack of any flower formation whatsoever I'm going to hold off until next week. Updates as per usual, timelapse is out, Happy Growing all! -10/2- Finally noticing some bud formation starting, very minimal but noticeable. About goddamn time, 3 weeks under 12/12 and all.
