Growing a little too tall for my room, but I think the stretch is pretty much done now. I super cropped 3 of the largest colas. Probably spoke too soon last week, PH dropped like a stone down to 4.5 a few days back. They had K and Mg lock out for maybe half a day. Stripped most of the lowest 10 leaves of nutrients. This is why defoliation is not the way to go, keep your leaves. They act as storage for nutrients and give you a buffer if PH lets you down 😁 It’s also pretty difficult to get a decent photo of the whole plants anymore 😕

two need another week maybe and the middle one looks like another two weeks. All three very frosty and stinky.

We did a lot to these girls this morning with many moving parts, so long entry today. Now that we are in flower, & with the data I've collected so far, I'm going to need to stay on top of the stretch with bends to keep them at a reasonable height. I'll plan to access & adjust on Wednesdays & Saturdays. One thing I want to mention about my style of growing, is that everything I do is with a specific intention. It may seem complex & labor intensive, but in reality, I spend very little time actually working in my tent. I plan & research heavily before each grow & use the data I collect to anticipate plant response. I try my best to be precise & I have a low to zero entry policy. My plant do all the heavy lifting, I just intervene to guide them into a structure that fits my space. Tent Entry Time-1 hour 40 minutes Week Total-1 hour 45 minutes Veg Total-4 hours 52 minutes Removed straw mulch from each container & placed in separate buckets containing plain reservoir water. Removed all fan leaves not directly attached to a growth tip on each plant. Removed plant material salad chopped then mixed with straw mulch in respective buckets to soak. Removed Bud Clips from each main and relocated below the top node of each main branch to spread at 90° angles. Top dressed each plant, working into the top 1/2 inch with hand rake. Heavy top dress as I'm working with 7 gallon containers. -Top Dress (Divided)- 6 cups Build a Flower 3 cups Vermicimpost 1/2 cup Craft Blend 1/2 cup Ocean Blend & Trace Minerals 1/3 cup Kiss My Frass 1/4 cup Kashi Gold Each top dress capped with 4 cups reclaimed 60/40 blend of Roots Organic Original & Coco Coir Hand watered each container with 6.5 ph, 13 ppm, plain reservoir water mixed with 1/2 tsp each of horticultural aloe powder, horticultural coconut water powder, & Build a Bloom, with 1/4 tsp each of Recharge & quillaja powder. Mixed & soaked straw & plant material restored to respective containers. Photoperiod adjusted to 12/12 Deep red supplemental lighting activated to run 15 minutes before lights on & 15 minutes after lights out. Far red supplemental lighting replaced blue supplemental & synced with main light. DLI now at 28, & should raise naturally throughout the week. We will reassess Wednesday evening.

Hi everybody, The last plant has recovered quite well, since I have my ph under control again, gotta admit that the Milwaukee ph-pen feels a lot faster and stable in terms of readings and also the calibration. I am growing on Speedgrow rockwhool this time, and not growdan. Speedgrow claims that you don’t need to soak and buffer their cubes. I will test this once the plant moves out of the microgreen section into the tent, where I can monitor the water reservoir.

This plant has been topped and low stress strained, new leaves are growing. Water is at 6-6.2 as it’s had some nitrogen toxicity, there’s a lot of moss in the pot due to over watering. I have no left the plants for nearly a week without water to proper dry out once dry I’ll spray them with water

Zamnesia's Lemon Cherry Gelato is a very versatile plant, beautiful, fast-growing, and clones very well. We started from seed, and everything went very quickly, and the start of flowering is very promising. We're in an 11-liter square pot, with little vegetative growth and growing upright. Techniques chosen: the plant was left to grow upright, meaning only a little tidying up the lower parts to prevent unnecessary growth and to give the upper buds that potency they deserve. We're 100% organic and 1000% Plagron, as always. The soil we've chosen is the recently launched Plagron Bio LightMix, which will allow us to get started more smoothly and reliably, without the sudden changes that liquid fertilizers can cause. A week is more than enough, so let's not overdo it. We're in the early stages of flowering, but we're well-equipped with fertilizers and additives. We've added: - Power Roots 1 ml/l (Always use it for the first two weeks of flowering, especially after transplanting) - Pure Zym 1 ml/l - Silic Rock 1 ml/l - CalMag Pro 1 ml/l - Sugar Royal 1 ml/l - Alga Bloom 4 ml/l - Power Buds 1 ml/l Once a week as a foliar spray: (until the first two weeks of flowering) - Vita Race 5 ml/l Choose your favorite style and calculate your results on the website: www.plagron.com Our new 720W Spider King lamp from Vanguard Hydroponics is now at 80% Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/531-growshop A rocket start looks more than promising. Give it a try. Z - https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11242-zamnesia-seeds-lemon-cherry-gelato.html Z - Lemon Cherry Gelato is an extraordinary hybrid capable of offering a complete and satisfying experience to all growers and cannabis enthusiasts. This premium strain is the result of crossing Sunset Sherbet and Girl Scout Cookies, two strains renowned for their high quality and delicious aromas. With a genetic makeup composed of 60% indica and 40% sativa, Lemon Cherry Gelato produces stimulating and dynamic effects. With 26% THC, it infuses deeply relaxing vibes, keeping the mind clear and alert. Lemon Cherry Gelato adapts easily to any growing environment. Indoor plants maintain a compact structure, reaching 110 cm in height, making them ideal for limited spaces. Outdoors, this strain grows up to 140 cm. Extremely adaptable, this strain responds well to cultivation techniques such as topping and low-stress training (LST), allowing growers to optimize space and increase final yields. Indoors, a minimum of 600 g/m² is possible after a flowering period of 8-9 weeks. Outdoors, plants will reach maturity in September and, in optimal conditions, will yield around 1000 g each. Thanks to its innate resistance, Lemon Cherry Gelato is perfect for both beginners and experienced growers. You already know this, but I recommend it: here you will find many beautiful things, essentially "the best that nature has to offer."

Hey Growmies, I apologize for the lame diary this week. I've been sick on and off the last two months and it's really taking a toll on my body and heart condition. Please forgive me as I'm trying to heal up. I'll do the best I can at updating this as I go along. I'm not giving up! The girls look great, despite not giving them as much attention as id like and they deserve. Great week of growth. I let her do her thing. I did minor LST and some hst on the other girls that I haven't made a diary for yet but will. Day 19 of flower.. week 3 of flower is about to wrap up which is nearing the end of the stretch phase. I was pleasantly surprised with the growth on the Watermelon Zkittelz, I've been putting the most work into her as the technique I'm using requires a lot of attention. Next run I will use tie downs and I'll most likely add a trellis here soon too help hold the heavy colas.. but we will see how it plays out. Looking forward to seeing her buds start to stack before my eyes! Thank you to everyone who has helped me through this journey! I've been really sick lately and my girls help keep me going! Day 20 of flower Today went well, I reorganized the tent and cleaned it a bit, I try to clean it once a week or so. I've been hand "drip feeding" one of the girls the last few days. Just an expierment and the plant seems to love it so I'm going to start hand "drip feeding" all of them. I think the Watermelon Zkittelz is going to love some extra food every day! I know us humans do but it's important to make sure the girls aren't stressed and isnt in a nutrient lock out or something. I think it's best when she's running prime! At the end of day 20 of flower I took a video of all the new growth and it was after I reorganized the tent and I feel so much better after doing this. I also turned off all the lights and turned on each light individually so I could see how each light was casting on each plant. This way I know the plants are getting enough light coverage as that is a huge disadvantage of using these budget lights. Excited for the 3rd week to come to an end!! Adding new nutrients next week!! Day 21 of flower ( end of week 3 of flower, 11 weeks from seed ) Grow is going great!! Have a good day!

Hi all, My second week posting on here. Just to confirm that the plants are in London, in a basement. 38 plants in a room approximately 4 meters my 3 meter. It’s been a busy one! Lots of jobs done, tho not sure if I’m getting things right... if you’d like to comment please feel welcome to make suggestions, or call me and my ideas stupid lol SATURDAY At the start of the week I started pruning the plants. I removed all buds, leafs and non-main branches from the bottom 20% of the plants. MONDAY After giving the plants a couple of days to recover and so I was sure my pruning didn’t have a negative affect I started removing small buds and all of the older fan leafs from the rest of the plants I started a different watering routine today after learning that the humidity was too high. It was between 65-85. Cropping a lot of the leafs off the plants helped, so did installing fans to suck air in from outside. Also I stopped leaving buckets of water in the grow rooms. Yesterday I did not water the plants at all. So this morning they were all very dry, but looks good too. Today they had a lot to drink. Added more circulation fans too. Anyway, managed to get the humidity to 40 when lights on, and up to 60 when off. Still working on bring it down to below 50 at night. WEDNESDAY Finished pruning today. With half the plants I took off 65% of the leafs, stems and buds, leaving only the bigger bud areas and sugar leafs, plus a few fan leafs.

December 29 day 15, growth is fine, I will likely top the plant later in the week. Roots are developed enough to remove humidity dome, although I am still running a humidifier. December 30, day 16, topped the Malasana cookies and removed growth at the first node. I am not mainlining as I don't think it would give me an even canopy across the 8sqft growing area this plant will take up. The topping won't give the same symmetry, but with a bit of training I will end up with an even, wide canopy. I removed the branches from the first node as I would have to end up removing a lot of that growth. In my experience those first branches never fill in as much anyways. December 31 day 17, recovery from topping going well. Put the humidity dome back on to keep the VPD at around .8kPa. January 2 day 19, despite the large pot causing a bit of overwatering leaf droop the Malasana cookies continues to recover well. I am done with the humidity dome after waffling back and forth quite a bit. I posted an image in more natural light to so that the leaves are a healthy green. Just that edge curling that will work itself out when the plant grows into its big container. January 4 day 21, growth is taking off as it should at this age. Its still going to be a long veg to get an 8sqft flowering size. Recovery from the topping is good, and new leaves are healthier with less clawing. I applied LST with plant ties to get growth to head toward my plant training frame (atlas plant trainer).

Final week at most! Going to keep a close eye on the important part from here on out. Smell has picked up big time over the last week. Almost there!

With the water I was going from 50/100ml slow to the 400/500,so I'm changing time to time my water until they are big enough and then I only feed 1/1,5L water,That's how it goes every time I'm growing the water cycle

Just been chopped toon al the lower branches off and put them away separate but will update on the total yield

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

the girl is blooming :) she won't be big, but I think she's beautiful :)

Sept 24th - carried out some LST on the (d)P this morning. Looking pretty darn healthy. Bigger than Natural Mystic and a week behind. This plant really established itself last week - possible 1/2 volume feed tonight 2.75L h2o/molasses ***Oct 8 is Lights-out. Plants go into the dark for 36 hours*** (northern lights finish is going to take toooo long, enough. Into the 2’ tent. small photoperiod GMG to take its place) 25th a.m. - fed half volume h2o/molasses - this plant has opened up and is responding to something -applied some fresh LST anchors, go 26th - carried out a good LST session to finish yesterdays organizing. Looking real sharp! 27th - plant looks ready for a big feed tonight, if the soil allows; 6.5L - with a flowering deadline approaching (Oct 8 or b4) its great that I’m able to get some bigger nutrient volumes into the mix. Working my way towards one 2 gallon feed before lites-out if everything lines-up. - photo uploaded of repair site from first topping. (Uploaded discovery photo as well) Sept 29th a.m. - waited till the Pot was actually lighter (extra 2 days) & fed (d)P 6.5L h2o / nutes - little clean-up on the LST, she is sharp looking and getting round - seeing the pot actually lighter confirms we are not drowning the plant and confirms we are working near the dry side. - 15 gallon pot stays right where it was, and looks like its gonna NEED THE SPACE 30th - last day week 6 - sister plants have indicated a build-up of Salts (n things) is happening in the Soil and I will be flushing the plant tonight as a bit of preventative Maintenance, ahead of any build-up issues going into Flower. - she looks strong and ready. Lites-out is a week away - Foliar misting has been reduced to ~ Twice a week - Flush and some Molasses are going to set this one in motion

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 💚 Weiter geht's im Vergleichsgrow! Bio Tabs NL. vs. Weedefix (Stuttgart/ Germany) Hier im Weedefix Grow haben wir nun nach 29 Tagen des Einpflanzens eine Höhe von 45 cm Erreicht. Im Wachtum lässt sich vermutlich beobachten, dass die Weedefix Komponenten etwas mehr performen, da die Pflanze insgesamt etwas buschiger und schneller im Wuchs ist. Das nur Mal zum jetzt feststellen. Dadurch dass mir bei der anderen Pflanze ein Seitentrieb abgebrochen ist, habe ich der Fairness wegen bei dieser Pflanze den Trieb an der gleichen Stelle ebenfalls abgeschnittenen. Diese Woche, habe ich mit Wasser und 5ml Wachstum (Ferment mit Melasse und Hefeextrakten) gegossen. Und es zeichnet sich bereits ein stärker werdendes Aroma ab. Die Bedingungen im Growschrank sind Top! ————— 🌞 Temp: 21 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 58% VPD: 0,75 kPa 💡ppfd: 330 mpm —————
