✋Wk12:Trichome Hunting and Changes in diet. 👉The week has shown to be not just the usual fun of having cannabis in the flowerings stage, but also the frustration of having cannabis in the flowering stage. The fun is the funky stank that hits me in the face as I open the tent each time, then gazing at the magical flowers as they get plumper and fuzzier. The frustration comes from the seemingly slow motion pace the plants are taking as I dream of harvest day. 👉The 3 gallon plant has reduced its volume of liquid it consumes. However, I have only slightly reduced the total volume of solution given each time. I have kept the EC around 1.3. The run-off has climbed quickly between fertigations, and I have done a couple of H2Only irrigations. The runoff EC spiked on the last day of this week. I did another H2Only irrigation followed by regular nutrients. I have seen issues on the upper leaves that could be nutrient related, or maybe light stress, perhaps its moody and hates me for not spending more time with it. I have been keeping the lights at around 17” from the top of the main cola. The lights driver is turned fully on (light is rated at 150W). Its counter intuitive to me that the light would be causing light stress since its only 150w. I would think a much more intense light would cause that or one kept a lot closer. So I have pulled the light to its max height. I may dial back the driver a tad. The buds are getting very bulky and are very dense. I hope they stay that way and not foxtail like its tent mate is doing. 👉The one gallon plant is starting to fade. Its larger leaves are mostly yellow. I take the yellow leaves when they begin to dry up. Some just fall off when touched. I’ve done some extensive trichome hunting and have only spotted only scant few ambers. Most are still clear, but there are lots of cloudy ones too. Very hard to differentiate if they are in the direct light of one of the grow lights (or any led light). The led light makes them all look cloudy, but indirect light shows most are still clear. I will continue checking each day for the status of the trichomes. I will harvest when almost all are cloudy with only a few clears remain. I have kept its solution volume at 1.5l at the low range EC of nutrient solution. I have also given a couple of H2Only irrigations to lower the EC runoff. The buds are sort of fox tailing but look very much like the breeders picture on the product page. The cola are long and getting bulky, but probably not very dense. They are super frosty and the calix’s are getting very large, much like the gorilla glue I grew was. The aroma of the funky stank is strong enough to be smelled outside (I vent outside). The up close smell is different than the tent smell…still creamy sweet caramel…so weird to me…I can’t wait to try it…in like 8 more weeks…sigh. I will harvest the plant when it says its ready. Almost there.😷

End of week 2. Plants need some trimming and defoliation under the canopy. They have finished the flowering stretch and are focusing energy on bud sites

5/5/24

Smell has become very strong. Fruity, pineapple, buds are flowering very fast for a Sativa. I will soon have to hang a net to give the plants support.

Impressive how this plant managed to grow despite the few hours of light .. I guess what it could do with a better season than this year (there has been a lot of rains) and in a place where it grows with constant light.. anyway I am very happy with her, I would also say proud of how the growth went. In the last few weeks, as you can see, the plant has suffered an attack by caterpillars that have eaten some of its leaves in a short time, the plant has remained very strong anyway. I tried to remove them manually until they disappeared completely Before proceeding with the cut, I put the plant in the dark for 48 hours, further stressing it by shocking the roots with ice cubes. I've never used these two methods, but I've heard a lot about them. some say it is useless while others say that these methods work to increase the production of trichomes and terpenes. We'll see, I'll share my experience with you as always. Also follow me on Instagram for daily updates! Keep growing fam! Much love 💚

it's amazing, this growth looks much better than my first attempt, my decision was to put a smaller pot and change the light - the girl really liked it, FastBuds goriilla cookies with a small space manage perfectly:).

Ci siamo! Siamo arrivati quasi al traguardo...questi giorni le ragazze sono al loro massimo splendore e l'odore nella stanza e fortissimo! Anche questo aggiornamento è stato fatto grazie all'aiuto di mia madre che gentilmente mi ha tenuto e curato le bambine, sono contento perché sembra che è riuscita a seguire tutte le mie istruzioni e questa volta non ci sono stati problemi...è la prima volta che mi capita di competere in un contest e farmi mandare foto per mail..chiedo scusa se la messa a fuoco non è sempre delle migliori e personalmente non posso chiedere di meglio, è un lavoro che mi serviva e sono dovuto partire lasciando tutto indietro...tornando ai nostri fiori, il green sensation di Plagron devo dire che ha fatto la differenza, contando che il cibo questa volta è stato preparato interamente da me, ha fatto un ottimo lavoro e i fiori sembrano dirlo forte! Cercherò di aggiornare l'ultimo step prima della fine...tra due giorni farò tagliare le ragazze! A presto!!!

Wonderful looking grow to date. Environment is on point, nutes at just the right level. 15 more days of veg and then the mothers will be cloned, the best BB and Slurry phenos chosen for pollination, a few mothers donated, and the autos under a dedicated qb. Nothing else to report. Except that bitch Carol fucking Baskin did it

The temperatures, humidity, 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. Day 1 we had thunderstorms and rain in the morning followed by sunshine. Day 2 we had rain in the morning followed by sunshine. That might we had severe thunderstorms and the threat of hail. We missed the hail but had heavy wind and rain. Day 3 we had rain in the morning followed by rain and thunderstorms intermittently into the night. Day 4 we had rain in the morning then mostly cloudy until the late afternoon. Day 5 we had sunshine and clear skies until the afternoon. Around 4:00 pm a severe thunderstorm hit. It produced strong winds, heavy rain, and grape sized hail. Fortunately the hail lasted only a few minutes and only damages some leaves. Day 7 we had rain and thunderstorms through the previous night and into the morning. We had sunshine, clear skies, and temperatures in the upper 70's. That was followed by severe thunderstorms, rain, and a touch of hail from 4p.m. to 6p.m. The rain hammered this girl this week. It didn't seem to slow her down any. This week was a success

This girl was a high effort high reward type of girl for sure. She was struggling with nutrients which is why towards the end all of the leaves were just yellow and crispy. I didn't manage to find the right balance of nutrients for her BUT the yield and end product definitely did not suffer. This strain's smell alone is 100% worth growing!

Hello everyone 😎 Week 5 of flower for the Orange Sherbet auto from Fast Buds 💥🍊 She grew fast with a beautiful green color,for the nutrient 4ml/L terra bloom & 1ml/L power buds from Plagron Spider Farmer SE-7000 70% Have a nice day 😋

The first week of flowering went well, no defects or anything. I put up a second trellis with small compartments. And a dehumidifier to keep the humidity between 50% and 60% I have also started the flowering nutrition , including the New 'powerbuds' from plagron. Does anyone happen to have any experience with that? Now it is waiting for the plant to stop stretching. Around day 20 I will defoliate the plants one more time

I've cut down on grow at this point as the soil seems to have a lot. I'll feed for another week then think about Flushing. The kalimist will keep getting fed bloom and grow as its only been flowering for about 3 weeks due to taking longer to force flower.

I poured a whole bucket of 1000ppm trough the coco yesterday as long she goes under 800ppm runoff from her normal feeding. Shes massive under these bars, thats a spiderfarmer SE5000 (480watt)

9ª Settimana di Fioritura 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐 Com'è cresciuta la nostra bella RUNTZ 💓😍.... Grazie di cuore a ZAMNESIA 💙🗿 ed a PLAGRON 💜✅ per questa bella esperienza cannabica 🔝

Purple shades are starting to show up… I think the size of the buds has not change from last week, I will start to flush out this lady

Feed log: RKA x TCP #1 — D: 70 - 8.5L - [ph 6.2] SI[3ml] ,Vega[6ml] , Flores[20ml],Ca/Mg[4.1g & 3g ] INPUT; [1.486 EC] OUTPUT; 2.5L ,6.1 pH , 3.65 EC RKA x TCP #2 — D: 65 - 7.5L - [ph 6.2] Si[6ml] ,Vega[6.2ml], Flores[22ml], Ca[4g]/Mg[2.2g] INPUT; [1.58 EC] OUTPUT; 2.5L pH 6.3 [2.398 EC] Nr. 1 requires an increase in water next irrigation to bring that EC down lol! Nevertheless she’s doing great. Nr. 2 is nearing harvest, no new white pistils in sight, so I’ll start initiating the flush next irrigation 👍 just plain RO water for 7 days. For the next indoor batch I’ll be running 50/30/20 soil, coco, and perlite for even better control! Smell observations; Pheno #1 — citrus + spice with a slight banana peel note 😅 Pheno #2 — citrus + spice (no banana peel note) What do you guys think the yield will be? 😱😉
