Just a little defoliation and off to the races.

D47 Defoliation

Day 43-49 A lot of them are showing signs of going into bloom. Doing their stretch before bloom, so they need more nitrogen before they're done stretching. My own unbiased opinions about deep water culture.I love it.It's got the precision I need and control. If you like something more relaxed, living soil is your thing, but this is mine.I'm enjoying it.Everything's growing people have already done the research.I just gotta apply it.

Week 11 | Feb 5 - Feb 11 | Flower Days 36-42 Feb 5 - Flower Day 36 00:15 pre-top-off: pH 5.75 / EC 1.852. A touch high, but still controllable. After top-off it settled at pH 5.70 / EC 1.724. She was drinking around 1.5 L/day, and buds were clearly starting to put on real mass. The canopy still carried scars from the earlier incident, but the flowers themselves looked active and healthy. Feb 6 - Flower Day 37 00:15 pre-top-off EC hit 2.036. That was my cue to stop messing around with dilution. I did a full reservoir change, resetting the system cleanly instead of letting salt concentration creep. The new res went in at pH 5.74 / EC 1.614. She didn’t sulk at all, which was a relief. Feb 7 - Flower Day 38 Pre-top-off the numbers were calmer: EC ~1.500 / pH 6.18. After topping off with pH-adjusted water and letting it circulate, pH settled at 5.98. She drank less than a liter this day, but given stretch was over and the plant had just had a full res swap, that didn’t automatically worry me. Trichomes were becoming more visible on the sugar leaves - resin building, not just “hair.” Feb 8 - Flower Day 39 00:15 pre-top-off: pH 5.4 / EC 1.488. pH drifting down was a new pattern compared to earlier in the grow. After top-off it settled at pH 5.72 / EC 1.528. Drinking picked back up. That combination - falling EC with rising uptake - felt like the plant was properly feeding again. Feb 9 - Flower Day 40 00:10 pre–top-off: EC 1.532 / pH 5.6. After top-off it landed at pH 5.7 / EC 1.488. Stable, predictable behavior. No new spread of damage. Bud sites looked more “structured” now, and the smell was back to pungent and sweet rather than that old hay panic. Feb 10 - Flower Day 41 00:10 pre-top-off: pH 5.84 / EC 1.566. She drank about 2 liters over the last 24h, which was the clearest sign yet that she was working hard again. After top-off, 15 minutes later, she settled at pH 5.90 / EC 1.518. Then I did the big job: a major defoliation / cleanup. It was honestly a jungle down there and airflow needed help. I removed nearly all leaves with noticeable discoloration, plus a lot of shaded lower fan leaves that weren’t contributing. I left a few that were only slightly marked so I wouldn’t overstrip her. The difference was immediate: way better airflow, and more tops exposed properly. My fingers were ridiculously sticky afterwards and the smell was loud and pungent - and that was reassuring. Buds were clearly beginning to gain real mass. Feb 11 - Flower Day 42 00:13 pre-top-off: pH 5.88 / EC 1.608. This was the night I decided to do a tiny, controlled nutrient bump in the top-off water: 1 ml per liter each of Micro, Grow, and Bloom. After circulation it settled at pH 5.88 / EC 1.670 - exactly the outcome I wanted. Slight lift, no spike, no instability. This week felt like the real transition from recovery into bulk. The canopy still has scars, but the plant is behaving like a producer again - drinking, feeding, and stacking.

7/7/23 - Day 25 - Another water coming up tomorrow. She looks great. She is drinking so much water I have to add a ton of water every morning. 7/8/23 - Day 26 - The root is MASSIVE. This is a great sign that the plant has been doing well. The thing that gets me is how white the roots are. It's looking good for bud sites on the plant too. She has a ton of Cola areas forming now. I tried to count but lost track around 15+ cola areas, so when we move to Flower, I bet this gal gives me a ton of big buds. 7/9/23 - Day 27 - Every day, I wake up and get excited to see how much bigger she has gotten. The growth has been crazy, I've grown weed in the past, but it has never gone this well. I honestly spend 15 min a day on it. With this LEAF system, it's been super easy. The proof is in the pudding with this unit. Easiest weed I've ever grown. 7/10/23 - Day 28 - The growth is not slowing down. I refilled 1" of water to the pot today. This is the most water I have seen used in a day. Ideally, we would want to flip flowering when the plant has hit 12in. We are cutting it really close, actually, we are beyond what's rated for height. I'm going to Scrogg them some more and I would imagine Ill flip them to flowering very soon. 7/11/23 - Day 29 - Moving the tops around a bit, I'm trying to let it go as long as I can before flipping to flower.

What's up fellow growers another week in the books! Well let me start off with this has been a horrible week for this grow! My ladies are sick. So acouple days after their 10/15 feeding I noticed both plants were moist on bottom and moist on top and dry as hell in the middle. I found this out by my pineapple auto leaning over! The roots on one side of this plant are practically gone. With having this knowledge I gave them a couple more days to dry out and then yesterday I did a ten gallon flush and the 11th gal I gave them another feeding. I also added more of the walmart soil that I still had left to try to firm the plant up more. It seems to have helped. But upon adding more of this soil I just added more pest. There's little white bugs crawling all over my pots. The flush seems to have made things worse but I know it takes a few days for signs of corrections to take place. So I'm waiting and hoping I don't lose these plants in that amount of time. They are both yellowing badly. 10/15/21 5.3ml Micro 4.7ml Grow 6.1ml Bloom Ph 6.5 Solution temp 73.1°F 10/22/21 10 gal flush with 11th gal being feed 3ml cal mag 2ml micro 4ml bloom Ph 6.28 631ppm Solution temp 73.3°F At this point I'm not sure if it's pest related or deficiency. So I will just sit and see what happens. The new growth on buds is green but all the old growth is dying off. Well until next week if their is one! Best of luck and Happy growing!😎🌱💚💪💪

6/23 Due To The Two 8 Day weeks this week will only consist of five days to get me back on track. SEE LAST WEEK FOR DETAILS. I DID ANOTHER EIGHT DAY WEEK. I'LL DO THIS WEEK AS SIX DAYS. THAT WAY IM BACK ON SCHEDULE. WATERED 6/22. WENT BACK AT NIGHTCAND WATERED ANOTHER GALLON WITH 1/3 TSP Armor Si. I mixed the solution with kelp you kelp me but I dumped it out. I've mixed silica with other nutes before but I had read something earlier about bioavailability issues and I didn't want to risk it. My plants are the healthiest I've ever grown. I'm considering transplanting the large 10th planet that I'm light depping. I also need to develop my ipm and my nute schedule. Still gonna have to keep an eye onvthe water situation. Luckily I have a buddy in my corner that's co tinualkt Bern a great help. WENT BACK OVER AROUND NOON. BEAUTIFUL OUTSIDE AND THE PLANTS WERE LOVING THIS SUN. I DEFOLIATED SOME BURNED LEAVES AND MIXED A SOLUTION IF KELP ME KELP YOU THAT I PLAN TO FEED TO THE GARDEN TODAY. IM HAPPY WITH HOW THINGS ARE GOING. WE HAVE SOME RAIN AND THINDERSTORMS COMING. I NEED TO GET MY IPM UP AND RUNNING AND THE NUTES ONLINE. I ALSO NEED TO DECIDE IF IM GOING TO TRANSPLANT THE LIGHT DEP 10th PLANET. Went back over to put the girls to bed at six and if was still 90 degrees. The water from yesterday had dissipated. The tops were dust dry. I mixed two gallons of kelp you kelp me and fed it to the garden. Afterwards I pointed qbd found a couple plants that were more open to the wind were a little lighter. I know tomorrow will be very hot. Maybe quarter inch of rain. However after that it will rain (showers) off and on for days. I wanted to make sure the girls had what the needed to make it through tjis heat wave until they get that rain. I had another gallon mixed up and I'm thinking I should've given it to them. Oh well. I'd rather underwater than overwater any day. I did notice a burnt top on the plant furthest from the tarp that the sun JUST BARELY TOUCHES when the rest are in shade. I'll just raise the tarp a little. These are tiny problems. Can't upload video until tomorrow. 6/24 Good thing u gave the plants that water. I know it wasn't much but we didn't get any rain. Suppised to get a qtr in today and another qtr in tomorrow. Then rain a couple more days. It's working our really good for my watering schedule lol. Yesterday the girls got there first dose of a bottled nute. They got two gallons of kelp me kelp you (1/3 tsp per gallon) and another gallon of just phed water. I was going to do another gallon but held off due to the threat of syring rain. Didn't get it bur it looks like the plants loved the kelp. It had reached 90 yesterday. They look better today. It's 70 at 9 today. I LST the 10th planet in the 3 gallon. It's getting huge. I should start a separate diary for those three light dep plants. Its cool as hell watching this. One of the purple punches is flowering pretty good. I probably should start another diary for them. I'll be starting to feed my plants soon. Wondering if I should pinch plants again. TUCKED THE LITTLE GIRLS IN AT SIX AND SHOT A VIDEO AND TOOK SOME PUCTURES. PLANTS LOOKED PHENOMINAL! GOT HOME AND AROUND SEVEN IT JUST STARTED RORREBTIAL DOWNPOURS! THE TYPE OF RAIN THAT BREAKS STEMS. I SHOULDVE PUT MY OTHET TARP UP BUT I DIDNT. I WISH I HAD. IM A LITTLE NERVOUS. I KNOW THESE GIRLS ARE STRONG THOUGH! TOMORROW. ILL ROLL THE RARP UP AND SECURE THE BOTTOM FOR FAST ACCESS. IM ALSO GOING TO KOOK INTO FINDING A TOP FOR MY CAGE I CAN USE IN INCLIMENT WEATHER. 6/25 That little qtr in of rain we were supposed to get turned into torrential downpours and high winds. Luckily no REAL damage. If you watch the video you'll see what I mean. I'm going to havecto be cognizant moving forward. Noticed a few chunks from leaves butvplants are still healthy. I'm surprised how well these girls withstood this storm. They are certainly resilient. The 2 purple punch 1 10th planet that I'm light depping are flowering nicely now. They missed all the commotion from the storm as they were inside. It's smelling good. I'm happy. 6/26 It's what a friend would say is "maineing") out. That mistcthe plants love. I'm surprised the plants are doing as good as they have been considering the wind. Will be adding nutes soon. Need to add extra supports too. Light dep 6/27 Brief periods or torrential downpours. Light depped 3 gallon 0lants are under an overhanfcwhete the hatsxrain can't hurt them but they still get sun. They are really starting to flower now! I'm going to begin feeding with a base nute and a flower nute I think. I'm thinking about giving the light dep some open sesame or something similar. I need to set up a nute program soon but the plants ALL look so healthy! And it's been raining! I've only watered like once or twice since they've been in the big pots. I've seen zero pests aside from a chunk missing from a grasshopper. Usually by now I'd have battled half a dozen things and be battling another half dozen. However I was posing from clones. These are seeds and boy don't I see the difference!

week 4 plants look nice slight nitrogen def pumped up the dosage on the nutes

Today is Day 50 !! We have started flower an they are just looking amazing! We have switched up the nutrients for flower, instead of 1 tsp bloom and 3 tsp of veg , we just swap 3 tsp of bloom and 1 tsp of veg !! Can’t wait to see what these laddies do this week!!

Hoyhoyhoy’mmm.. Happy hi my dear topman! This is picture of over 12 & begin 13 weeks And in 2:00 AM include booster light YV 80w & FAR RED 36w . Watch @@

Extrema producción de tricomas de esta variedad! Gran parte de los frutos lo usaré para extraer rosin, su resina se ve ideal para este propósito. Fragancia exquisita a ponche de fruta dulce, con notas ácidas y un fondo de especias. Como mencioné anteriormente dejaré la parte de la reseña de efectos, sabores y sensaciones para cuando los cogollos estén secos y curados, por ahora solo puedo apreciar lo que mi vista y olfato me permiten captar. Totalmente conforme por la calidad de estas flores y agradecido de los amigos de Sweet Seeds por la confianza. Será hasta la cata entonces, buenos humos!

Week 1 of the flower/transition is in the books and so far, so good. After chopping out all but the best branches from each plant we flipped the light cycle and dropped some more clones in to the aerocloner. I am so done with this run of genetics but still can’t deny quality cuts when they’re available. Again, if there was a run to test out this new system with it’s definitely this one. We’ve been plagued by calmag, nute burn, nute def. across all of em at some point over the last 8 months. But since incorporating the Druid nutes - all of Em have been perfect👌. This should be a prefect opportunity to see exactly what kind of buds each of these strains throws out👍. Background This ones tied to part 2 of the pollen chuck. They were supposed to be a clone run for pollination but the mothers all reveg’d due to a timer incident and high stupidity. These will be the inaugural flowering run of the revamped dutchy system. Growing made easy😉. Shit ton of finagling and setup but once she’s ready - sit back, relax and watch em grow😍😎. Thanks for take’n a look.

Bloom 1 🌿

Flowering Week 3: 09.02.2026 - 16.02.2026

amazing growth this week from all 3 plants. The peanut butter cookies is recovering from the transplant. Both the auto cheese and auto cinderella jack have both started to show signs of flowering and have bushed out incredibly well. The pbc has had its first top done and has started growing 2 extra nodes. 07/08/2020 - training has been done on all the autos. They have recovered extremely well and seem to not be slowing down. Finally starting to see the type of flowers I have been striving for. After a semi unsuccessful first grow, this has been a huge relief. Both autos are now showing signs of going into flower so I will try to stop LST unless any unruly branches form. The peanut butter cookies has now started to fully recover from the transplant and topping. Will now allow this to flourish and grow as big as it wants as both autos should be done before its too big (hopefully)

The clone of Ayahuasca Purple have a gap of growing very impressive !! I’m working on it to do my first Main lining for now the results are great her reaction to low stress training and topping are beautifull ! she never stop to grow i love this plant

Second week of overdrive , and getting ready to flush for next next week res has been topped up and diluted down the mixture to ensure no over feeding or blockages happening and also to encourage the purple n black colours to come through . More comments said on the video as well

Moinii, Die Frozen Black Cherrys sind mega frosti und riechen derbe nach Citrus und Kirsche. Sie werden langsam etwas größer, aber nicht viel – dafür werden sie zunehmend klebrig. Die Emergen-C dagegen wird richtig fett und saftig und duftet immer noch intensiv nach Orangenschale. Jeden Tag gibt’s neue Veränderungen, einfach geil die Ladys! Bin richtig gespannt, wie’s weitergeht. Bis nächste Woche :)
