Start of Week 10 - Day 64 07/05: We’re at week 10 and the ladies are still going strong! Both Aaliyah and Alexis have overgrown my setup with their height, so I have tied their main colas down. This probably means that if the buds get too big in the future I’m probably gonna have to hold them up. But for big buds it’s worth it. Aaliyah is at 34” with the bend and Alexis is at 32” with the bend. Annie is now at 27”, but she’s getting taller each day. I’ve kept the waterings at a day and a half, but pH levels in runoff were dropping, so I’ve raised the it to 6.00pH. Aaliyah’s runoff had high levels of salt, so I’m planning on also lowering her feedings to 900μS. I still have full light on them for about 20 hours a day and as of the last watering, there are no pests, dead or alive. Let’s hope the ladies have an awesome week. 07/06: I noticed Annie has some leaves with small burnt tips that I thought were caused by nutrient burns, but her last few EC readings in the runoff were good. I just realized that since she is directly under the light she is getting blasted with rays. I think the tips are signs of light burn. Another mistake in my grow, but I’m learning so it’s not for nothing. I made a “solution” to my light distance problem using garden twine and a carabiner. It’ll do for now. 07/10: The ladies are still looking good. Aaliyah’s and Alexis’s buds are getting bigger. All three plants have not grown in height for the last few days, so I think the stretch is coming to an end. I switched off the blue vegetative light and left only the red flowering light. I’m curious to see if this will cause any change in bud growth. I also found a fly in one of the plant trays and also one on the trap. The fight continues.

Close to cutting

I don't know if I am just getting impatient but these GTH are taking ages . IM 7 weeks in and they could go as far as another 5 weeks!! Christmas is coming and my buds ain't getting fat 🙄 I just need to be patient. I'm going to add another 600w as I can afford it heatwise and after so long flowering i want to do all I can think to good result . I can't wait to see the back of this one 👊 3 days after this post I had a good growth spurt and some major development in my bud structure, on reflection, my plants look lovely. THe leaves are healthy and shiny, they are dark . I tied a lot of branches down and defoliated . THis has helped keep humidity levels down during lights out and also have given me the chance to have a good look at what's going on below the colas. I'm really pleased 😁. I was a bit down at the start of this week as you can tell by the start of my diary but by the looks of things it's gonna be a monster. I am just getting used to the strain so it has been a Step into the unknown , Thanks for the support ant to the fellow growers who have offered their advice Big up 👊

Day 51-31/01/22 looking really well first signs of crystals and brown hairs coming through!!!! Day 54-03/02/22 some of them look like they gonna be ready soon!!!! Day 56-05/02/22 we end this week with a watering I’ve woke up this morning and from the pics u can probably tell they need water!!!!

Let the flushing begin! Week 8 went well, this girl packed on the last of her weight and density. She's showing more red hairs, more color in her leaves and she's got a 60/40 mix of cloudy/clear trichomes.

2nd time doing Brix levels...some ladies went from a Brix of 4 to a Brix of 10 while 2 only went from a Brix of 4 to 6. I am pleased with their progress upwards. Dam just learned you should take leaves for testing 2 hours after lights on....I took leaves from dark period 😣. Will update with new Brix numbers taken with lights on. Chopping is coming very soon. I will tag the Brix of each plant when I hang to dry so I'm able to keep track of how the higher Brix relates to taste, smell and potency😎 😁The ladies noticeably got fatter over night!(Nov 11th). Man they really enjoyed that last watering, hope this continues into next week. Just read to take your Brix leaves in a "Z" or "W" pattern as older leaves will contain higher carbs. The refracted light tells us the amount of carbs in the "juice or sap" and minerals too like calcium, proteins and fats (lipids). High Brix enables weed to produce secondary metabolites = greater medicinal value. Sucrose/sugar (Carbs) & mineral levels in the fruit or flower translates or relates to taste. A tasteless 3 Brix tomato from the grocery store or a 14 Brix tomato from OMG you grow delicious tomatoes. Death to covalent bonding! (My goal a 20 Brix😀 Won't be happening with this grow but will be the next😁). Read that most people can detect a half point difference in Brix in the flavour. Lots of smell coming from these Gorilla Girls😵 I can only go so far with plant chemistry and then I get a headache and get lost😔

So, this is my first grow, just starting out. After NJ passed recreational weed, I was like you know what... Went on an amazon spending spree and got some seeds from cropkingseeds and this is it! I let the seeds soak for 18hr in deer park spring water w/ 1 drop of Organic Liquid Seaweed and Kelp Fertilizer Supplement by Bloom City. At the end of soakage, it didn't look like any had cracked maybe one did not so sure. So I did up the papertowels according to the video and have to say I feel a little nervous/anxious that there is too much water/weight on the seeds and feer drownage. I'm going to keep it on there though. I check the towels a few times throughout the day and am surprised they're very moist throughout the day and next morning still somewhat damp. 24 hours in the towels I check my babies and one had cracked but the rest were still sealed up tight, unwilling to share the goodness that we all so desire, cmon babies crack that shell for papa! 11/12 looked like 1 seed popped, yay! I remoistened towels a bit but didn't wanna soak them. I also put some rapid rooters in water to soak overnight gunna throw the seeds in them in AM... I was going to do it tonight but figured I should wait see if some pop out more. 11/13 OMG upon checking seeds at 07:10 I found the papertowels like bone dry OMG WTF!!! Panic sets in but I just set up the little terrarium with 6 plugs and put the seeds in and tore some plugs off bottom of a plug to cover seedhole with. 11/14 Got a sprout! YES!! The plugs look nice and moist just going to let it go! 11/15 Woke up this mornin, saw a new sprout peeking thru and then another about to! I got ansy and took off the little top plugs and found all the sprouts were coming up! Leaving the top plug off, hopefully thats not a bad idea.

Cool cette semaine c'est rempotage pour certaines filles.

DAY 42 F: Another roasting week in the grow room. Temps have been hitting 37°c still and keeping them watered has been a battle. The water has been taken up instantly and they had built up a little too much nute in the soil. We have a major yellowing of 2 of the middle row plants ( mango x mimosa fast bud cream cookie) They are still building buds but you can see the effort is taking them without the green for photosynthesis. Hopefully they will be fixable over the coming days. The Banana mash are doing well and even with the heat issues , still bud building. They have shaggy looking buds at present but I am confident they will become more solid soon and swell more. They have a pungent banana hit now and they are so tacky to touch too. The mutant #4 has really spread put at the back of the middle row and is producing some nice looking buds too. Purple Monkey continue to make me drool when I handle them and the buds up close look so edible. With their sweet candy smell and pinky/reds , i cant wai to try these out. They are just pushing their second pistil flush so should swell nicely over the next week or so. The heat has not bothered these at all it seems and keeping them nice and areated to avoid mould being able to form has been this weeks task. All fed and watered for the day now . Until next week grownies. Be safe and well. Keep the vitamin D up and bask in the sunshine of God green planet . peace and blessings

this is it i am crazy already and i can not wait ))) we cant wait, look at those eyes! i have the same eyes )))) but everything is going perfect except i am using led for the first time vipar 450v and the buds are way smaller then on HSP :((((((

18.10.2024 very humid and little sun on the west side 21.10.2024 day 187 Beautiful sunny day, then powdery mildew discovered and started the 3rd harvest.

Week 9 Day 57 (9/11) Things are going well, or so it seems. She looks like she is starting to bulk up at her bud sites. Her pistils are everywhere and I'm hoping to see the buds forming soon. Being a first timer, I have no idea what I'm looking for, but it's still exciting! Temps and humidity have been holding fairly steady. I think I'm to to point of bumping the humidity back some, keeping it below the 60% range. I have a couple VPD charts I'm trying to go by and they give me a range I am trying to keep the temp/humidity in. I fed her last night and she seems happy. Haven't noticed any of the discoloring or anything continuing, so that's good. I added some Alaska Fish Fertilizer to the mix just because I got it for free and wanted to give her a little nitrogen boost because her youngest leaves are kind of pale. I've heard that it's hard to overdo it with it, so figured it was safe enough. It has an NPK of 5-1-1, so I thought the P & K boost might be good too. Day 58 (9/12) Humidity keeps getting a little high, so I busted out a dehumidifier. There is some yellowing on some newer leave serrations, but idk if it is new or I'm just thinking it's new. Day 59 (9/13) Yesterday got a little rough for her! I kicked on the dehumidifier I have before I left for the day, and good thing the wifey was home to check in! Apparently that dehumidifier pumps out some heat! Within a few hours, the tent temp was almost 93F and humidity was nearly below 40%. She was quick to turn it off, crank the exhaust fan, and get the window opened to cool it off. When I turn it on in the future, I'll have to be sure to keep an eye on the room temp. I feel like she is a long way off from being ready, really doubt she will be anywhere near the 70-77 day grow time. That's fine with me, as long as she's happy and filling out, she'll get there eventually. Most other journals I've seen, they don't chop until week 12 or so. I also felt up one of the forming buds a bit, and the smell she left on my fingers is maddeningly delicious, about knocked my socks off. Day 60 (9/14) Pulled her out last night and tried tucking in a bunch of leaves to get more light to some of the lower bud sites. It's wild how many she has. She probably could have used some defoliation, but being an auto (and my first time growing) I held off. Maybe in future grows I'll give it a shot. Doing a better job at LST would probably have helped as well. She's still trucking, starting to see some start of frostiness. Day 61 (9/15) She seems fairly light in the pot, I'll probably try to feed her tonight or tomorrow morning, it just depends on when I get outta school today. I have surgery today, so I'll be here until late so will more than likely just get it mixed up tonight for in the morning. Day 62 (9/16) I mixed her up some feed last night. She's been having some yellowing on her tips and serrations, likely from phosphorus deficiency. Hoping what I mixed up is plenty to stave that off. I mixed it last night and gave it to her this morning after lights on. Her smell has really kicked in, I'm glad I got a filter and exhaust fan or the house would smell amazingly illegal. I was running late this morning and didn't even remember to get a pic of her this morning. I'll try to get one tonight before she goes to bed. Day 63 (9/17) Some of her lower leaves are starting to yellow between veins, showing magnesium deficiency. I almost put some cal-mag in yesterday with her feeding, now I wish I did. I'll wait it out and get her some next time she gets watered, or sooner if she's gotten worse since last night. I feel like she is just gobbling through her food, but honestly idk. I may be just keeping her right at the edge of deficiencies.

1 dia no copo com água ph 6.5 2/5 dias em rodelas de algodão

- upped light intensity to ca. 600 PPFD by taking of the domes of the E27 LEDs - performed LST and defoliated larger leaves that were blocking the new nodes; snapped the main stem from Forbidden Cherry #1. Damn. She survived, but so much pain. Stupid beginner mistake. She´ll recover! - Otherwise, great growth, no other issues.

Dried for 6-7 days in 24 degrees and 59% humidity. Now stored and cured with boveda 58%. Smells amazing like bergamotte or mandarin tree and lime juice with woody notes. It‘s a sweet strain with intense taste.
