2/2
We are about half way on the 2 biggest, 3 weeks on the SG, and about 6 weeks on the Blue cheese. Damn...
You can see how much I lose on the bottom half, but like I said before. It will still be more than I can smoke. And I want to make sure it all gets enough light to ripen and allow plenty of airflow. The only issues in really having is the godberry seems to be premature yellowing, but I still think it's from the light stress early on. She also looks a bit like nute burn. Yeh .. that's probably the fish emulsion I gave it 2 weeks ago when I misread the light stress. Sometimes it's best to stop and think before you do something stupid. I always have at least one plant that goes yellow too soon. Living soil. But I don't think the soil is lacking. I've never dealt with light stress before so it's kinda fucking with my head. But it's all at the top, as you go deeper they get greener. The deep purple stems across 2 different strains was from the light too. I've seen that before but it's been a long time.
2/3
My Blue Cheese is about week 6ish. I lose track temporarily because of how that plant came about. It was started 1 week after the others had already been in the ground. And then she started to flower after only 2 weeks. She popped up on 12/6, the others popped up on 11/30. I can tell by the way she feels she ain't even close. Flowers are nice but there is no density. Theeaves are so frosty they remind me of sage a bit.
I did a bit of work on her. Mostly just tied the tops together so she wasn't so sprawled out commandeering an entire 1/4 of the tent.
The 2 biggest are really becoming pretty and the ChocoLope is acting like she wants to start showing some color! Trying to keep it cool at night but below 70 and I start having trouble keeping gt VPD up.
Strawberry gorilla is plumping up slowly. She didnt start till about 3 weeks ago. So as soon as I move out the Blue Cheese, I'll see if I can give her a bit more light. May have to harvest the BCA in 2 goes. Should have left her tied down, or I should have super cropped that long ass cola bud. If I'm being honest, I just didn't want to hinge that beautiful top. Well .. next time. I plan on growing this beautiful strain a few more times.
2/4
Its always something.. it's a good thing I love growing because if I didn't, this would be a lot of work. So there is some kind of issue with my SIP. The bottom 3" of the pots are getting soggy and the plants are barely drinking for days. The pots are heavy AF so something is a miss. I pulled out the wicks to allow them to dry back a bit. Then I'm going to try to connect them again. So this is where I have to back track and think about what has been different lately... Normally I use frozen water bottles to keep the water under 70° as much as possible. I let it sit at 75 for 2 days and that's when I noticed they stopped drinking and the connection is all sloppy.
Could that be it? I recently broke down the reservoir and refilled it... Could that be it? I also moved the wicks out to the widest holes so they touch more of the pot than they did before... That might be it... I am a bit ashamed to admit it but I actually consulted AI about this. It says it could be any of those things, and I need to totally drain the res after the dry back. Something about the air gap is saturated. Well..... I'm gonna dry em back, and treat it like a fresh install. I'll stay on the old holes where I was before. And I'll keep the rezzy cool.
2/5
Ok.. so 24 hours was good for all except the blue cheese. She was still a bit too heavy to reconnect. I'm keeping the wicks out for 48 and the reassess. I tried to keep it exactly how I had it in the beginning.
The BCA is close... Closer than I realized. Two, maybe 3 more weeks and she gets the chop.. but this time I'm going to practice a bit more patience. I remember the last time I grew it I told my roommate that it would connect all the way up the cola. It never actually did. It tis time.. you have to look for stem. This plant is literally ALL BUD! I love this strain..
2/7
Strawberry gorilla at about 3 weeks flower. Startig to fill out. New pics. Blue cheese is almost done. Calyxes getting plump!! Choco lope pheno #1 is starting to take on rally dark sugar leaves. And the God Berry is a bit too.
All but the blue cheese are still connected and SIP is not hooked to reservoir. I'm forcing a small reset on the SIP. Hoping to reconnect them all soon.
More to come...

Hello Diary,
Cherry Pie has completed its fifth week of flowering, as you can see in the photos, we are very close to harvest.
I would say one more week and she will be ready.
Given the appearance of Cherry Pie, it would be a shame not to take a picture of her on a black background.
The flowers are now quite large, hard to the touch and sticky.
Especially the main cola which looks impressive.
The flowers are full of trichomes that are still transparent when viewed through a microscope.
Some leaves have started to turn yellow which I attribute to her ripening.
The smell is very intense at this stage, the whole room smells like plants when I open the grow box.
Watering is still every two or three days.
This week I stopped adding nutrients, I just lower the p.H. to 6.0 and water the plants with clean water.
Here's what the previous week looked like.
13/09/2024 - Day 51.
Watering.
I prepared 9 liters of water, lowered the pH to 6.0 and used that amount to water all three plants on the farm.
16/09/2024 - Day 54.
Watering.
I repeated the same procedure as three days earlier.
18/09/2024 - Day 56.
It's the end of the 8th week, taking pictures of the plants.
That's all from me for this week, see you soon.

Day 50 - Starting week 8 today and she’s looking beautiful. She definitely not as big as I was expecting but she’s really starting to fatten up, looking and smelling amazing. Can’t wait for these last couple weeks for her to finish and chop her.
Day 51 - All is looking good and hoping by the end of week 10 she’ll be ready or close to ready for chopping. Starting to get milky trichomes but still quite a few clear. The next couple weeks are gonna be fun to watch her fatten up more.
Day 52 - She definitely looking good and getting a lot of milky trichs but there’s still a bit of time before she’s ready to chop, at least that’s what I’m thinking. Might do a split harvest if she calls for it but hoping she’ll be ready by week 10 or 11 at the latest. Just need her to fatten up a bit in the middle.
Day 53 - Gave her a feeding of water today and continuing to watch her fatten each day. She’s starting to get really frosty and smelly and I’m loving it! Excited for the last few weeks.
Day 54 - All is looking good still and it’s like this girl is almost turning into one big giant frosty bud and couldn’t be happier with how easy she’s been to grow so far. Right now she’s almost 100% milky trichs and looks like she still has a little more time to go still. I’m going for a little more couch lock so need those ambers to start showing up.
Day 55 - All is looking good still, just watching her fatten up everyday.
Day 56 - Last day of week 8 and she’s smelling sooo sweet and getting frostier everyday. Thinking about just giving her pH’d water from here on out. I’m guessing another week or two and she should be finishing up but just gonna continue watching trichs. Waiting for them to start turning amber. Still a few clear in there but not many, mostly all cloudy now.

Week 8 and week 3 of flower!
The terpenes are making my mouth water and the ladies are fluffier than ever and stacking up nicely.
Due to weather changes recently I was able to keep lower over all temperatures and the humidity has increased slightly but it’s right where I want it (50% RH).
Purple Lemonade is fading nicely and her colours are becoming more and more vibrant - she has about 2 weeks left. Terps are insane!
All the other strains are happy as can be and also showing slight fade on leaves here and there. Very impressed with my Divine Seeds pheno’s and definitely recommend giving their strains a try very strong and easy to grow. Ethos Zweets literally smelling like candy canes. Dutch Passion Colorado cookies definitely giving off hues of a bakery.
Overall it was a smooth week and I can’t wait for the smooth smoke!
Organics is the easiest way to grow with minimal effort and great results. Shoutout to Green House Feeding Bio Line 😎

Sie macht sich weiterhin gut und hat ordentlich Durst, ca.10l alle 2 Tage.
Leider habe ich an manchen Trieben Zwitter Zeichen in Form von einzelnen Bananen entdeckt und mit einer Pinzette entfernt. Irgendwas gefällt der Dame nicht, hatte noch nie Zwitter Probleme 🤔

Well we finally reached the end. The last week was more cruise control. Just trying to remove the big fan leaves that's blocking any flowers. The trichomes looking kinda ready but still acceptable. During the last few days I maintained a daytime Humidity of around 60 and nighttime of 55. Temperatures are between 73 degrees and 67 degrees.
Two days before chop they got 48 hrs of dark and 3 days of no water to add to the stress. After the 48hrs darkness all the ladies Came out extra frosty. Loving the change of hues on the blue gelato. The vanilla Kush is very oily and very very strong smell. Not a strong smell coming off the OrangeGelato though. The green gelato has a creamy smell.

6/14 These are some thirsty girls. It seems the roots have filled the grow bags. The added wind makes it so that I need to stay on top of the water. I also need to spray again. When defoliating I saw some WPM on the very inside of a couple plants. I killed a few aphids on one plant. It seems if I just manually kill them it takes a while for them to repopulate. Also found a worm. I should bust out the BT but I am undecided considering I have the WPM as well. Foliar spray will probably be Dr. Zymes or lost coast plant therapy. Note LCPT seems to not do shit against aphids. Will update as the week progresses. UPDATE: Went back over after noticing strong wind. 15mph sustained wind had my plants going as sideways as possible. Luckily the vertical trellis and supports I made have stopped any major damage thus far. I decided NOT to put tarps up on the south which is where the wind is coming from. I hope I do not regret that decision. I plan to spray tonight.
6/15 Rained all night so I was unable to spray. Surprisingly no damage from all that wind.
6/16 Rained during the night and soil was still wet so didn't water this morning. I noticed markings on one of my transplanted seedlings. Found Thrips. I've never dealt with these before. I was planning on spraying BT but now I'll need to switch to something else. LCPT, Dr. Zymes, or spinosid (captain Jack's dead bug). Considering I have been dealing with PM I'll try to use something that will deal with both. I'll update as I go. I have defoliation I need to do on at least one plant. I also need to reevaluate my space and consider moving a couple plants that way it isn't to crowded. Another windy day but it's from the north west which is better as the tree line and tarps help.UPDATE Went back over and watered all plants. One plant had a slight droop which is surprising considering the two days of rain. The wind dries those grow bags out quick and it was sunny day. I watered the one that looked a "little" droopy first before applying Lost Coast Plant Therapy to the entire garden with a half gallon pressure sprayer. I hope this was a good idea. The droopy plant got treated last. We shall see tomorrow.
6/17 Everything looked great this morning. Lightly watered before feeding 2 gallons. Replaced microbe brew with kangoroots this time. Plants looked very happy. No negative results from the lost coast plant therapy. If anything they look better. My cage is getting overwhelmed. I need to remove at least two smaller plants. They are exploding in that 50gal and the tote. If I removed just those two I think it would work a lot better. I would have more room to work as well.
6/18 LCPT doesn't seem to effect aphids. I noticed a few on ONE plant and had been killing them manually. Population was only on literally a leaf or two. I think my follow up treatment will be Spinosid. It works great and hits pretty much everything. I've used it once already. Plants are incredibly healthy. Leaves were wet so it lightly rained last night. I lightly watered as the soil still seemed moist. Different size containers makes a consistent watering schedule difficult. UPDATE: Went over and watered tonight. Checked the one plant that had a few aphids for aphids and found like a dozen lady bug larvae instead! They survived the wind and had babies! These are just wild guys that are all over the place here. Couldn't find a single bug other than that lol.
6/19 I watered early this morning lightly as the soil was not totally dried out but then it started pouring. Plants looked great this morning. After the rain I'll do some defoliating and check for any remaining thrips. Later in the day we had torrential rain that knocked out my cameras. Plants look fine as you can see and all cams and motion sensors are back online. I have backups but still.
6/20 We had torrential rain but plants are fine. Watered what needed it lightly. Bags dry out fast and I've found I need to water often or some will droop. Found spiders that had killed a couple of my lady bugs. I killed what I could. Still need to defoliate and apply second application of whatever I decide.

Cactus Candy Kush wächst ganz gemütlich vor sich hin.
Diese Woche habe ich einige Ladungen in meinem Pyrolyse Ofen verfeuert und dabei Stockbrot gebacken. Ich nutze die Kohle als Zugabe beim Kompostieren. So wird sie über ein Jahr lang zigmal von Würmern zusammen mit dem Kompostmaterial gefressen und wieder ausgeschieden. Dabei reichert sich die Kohle mit Stickstoff, Mikrobiologie und vielen anderen Nährstoffen an. Der reife Kohle-Kompost hat eine besondere Fähigkeit die Pflanze mit gespeichertem Wasser und allen Nährstoffen zu versorgen, die sie während des Wachstums und der Blüte benötigt.

Vamos familia tercera semana de vida de estás Tropical Zmoothie de SeedStockers.
Que ganas tengo de ver el progreso de esta variedad, las plantulas están sanas, se ven con buen color.
La cantidad de agua cada 48h entre riegos.
Esta primera semana ya añadimos nutrientes de la gama Agrobeta.
Tuve problemas de trips en un indoor y tengo todas plagadas pero ya las e tratado con aceite de neem y un insecticida genérico, además añadí varias tiras de color azul, trataré esta semana y la siguiente.
También realicé el trasplante a maceta definitiva, 7 litros.
Estas próximas semanas veremos cómo avanzan.

Week 4 - 01/22 to 01/28 2021
Pictures from Days 25 + 26
TRANSPLANTED!
Hopefully the stunted size means the flower timing is delayed as well, I've gone through a runt LSD before so if it flips before 7 inches I'll just pull it and start a different seed, I still have more Purple Lemonade beans so might pop one of those into the 5gal with no transplant and see if I can get a better base.
More and more reasons to go back to a photoperiod grow after this for more control/really test out the new lights 🙌
Ended up more 50/50 ratio of Destiny Organic's Dark Matter Living Soil + ProMixHP since I had to make the Destiny last. Apparently they went out of business just after I decided it was my favourite/new soil :( Would rather stay away from Ocean Floor since I haven't had the best experiences with it (bugs/rust fungus etc) Feel free to drop some recommendations other than Fox Farms below 👍
The plant otherwise is healthy and growing well under the new set up. Still 3 and change tall but in context of the new light has tripled in size in a week and a half. If it looks like it's still vegging and starting to catch up once it settles into the new RootPouch 5gal woven then I'll keep it going.
I raised the @ViparSpectraLED P1500 another eight inches after transplant and started basic LST. I really wanted to get these four under a ScrOG but if 3/4 are already flipping and the LSD is still runty I might have to wait it out again.
I have the @MarsHydroLED TSL2000 set up and ready to go once the girls settle into their new pots. Have the new surge protector/heavy duty power cords/power tool grade timers as mentioned in Week 3. Some of it shown in the pictures.
Threw some videos in this week as well with some Queen's Radio GaGa, Beastie Boys' Brass Monkey, and a little hint of Arkells ....COME TO LIGHT on the short @ViparSpectraLED ..GET IT.. 😓

Journal de Culture : Givre 1 -
Babouch (Semaine 9)
Génétique : Frostbanger (F2 Perso) | Système : Autopot 20L (Géré en manuel pour le rinçage)
📣 Remerciements
Un immense merci à toutes les personnes qui suivent ce journal depuis le début ! Un grand merci en particulier à @MIA_BIOTABS et à Mrs_Larimar pour leurs précieux conseils toujours aussi utiles. Merci à tous pour votre soutien !
🛠️ Configuration Technique
Éclairage : Lumatek ATS 300W Pro (réglé à 100% pour le sprint final)
Distance lampe/canopée : 50 cm
Climat : Jour : 25°C / Nuit : 21°C
Humidité (HR) : 50% (gérée par le déshumidificateur)
Tente : 1m80 de hauteur
📅Évolution & Fin de Floraison :
Hier dernier repas PK et top départ pour un rinçage de 14 jours minimum !
État de la plante & Structure des bourgeons :
Hauteur actuelle : 84 cm (la taille reste inchangée, toute l'énergie va dans les fleurs).
Morphologie des têtes : Les bourgeons continuent de gonfler d'une manière assez unique avec cette petite couleur rosée. J'ai l'impression qu'elle pousse "en épis de blé", une structure de floraison très intéressante, même si ce phénomène est un peu moins prononcé sur Babouch que sur sa sœur Dora.
Trichomes :
À l'observation, la plupart des trichomes sont désormais bien laiteux. C'est le signal parfait que j'attendais pour lancer la dernière ligne droite.
Nutrition et stratégie (Le grand nettoyage en mode manuel) :
Dernier apport :
J'ai donné hier ce qui sera normalement son tout dernier apport en PK 5-8 Biotabs.
Gestion du système :
Pour cette phase cruciale, j'ai bien coupé le système Autopot et je bascule en mode arrosage manuel. Cela va me permettre de contrôler précisément la quantité d'eau claire apportée et de bien laisser le substrat respirer entre deux arrosages.
Objectif Rinçage :
À partir de maintenant, Babouch passe uniquement à l'eau claire pour une période de 14 jours minimum. Le but est de couper complètement les vies pour la forcer à puiser au maximum dans ses propres réserves stockées dans les grandes feuilles, et ainsi déclencher une vraie et belle sénescence d'ici la coupe.
Résumé visuel :
Avec la lampe poussée à 100%, la production de résine s'intensifie et les têtes scintillantes sous les LED. Les calices continuent de s'empiler magnifiquement, et malgré sa structure de feuilles encore bien vertes et vigoureuses, le démarrage du rinçage va doucement commencer à faire pâlir la demoiselle.
L'odeur dans la tente est toujours aussi redoutable.
À bientôt pour suivre l'évolution ❤️❤️

Week5 Vegetative steering
Day 29
————-
4 minute shots(220+-ml).
50-60klux
68 leaf temp
Defoliated/Lollipopped
Plants seem to be inefficiently spaced. I moved them all closer and they are now positioned better under the lights
————
Day 30
VPDis about a .95
Vegetative steering schedule for 3gal who drink a little over a quart a day
220 P1
440 P1
660 P1
880 P1
1000 P1
1220 P2
1330(1%)P3
I achieve runoff at end of P1 then do a maintenance shot and finish the day off with a watering.
P1 waters every 15 min starting 1.5hours after lights on
Plants are swelling. But not as well as when i use CO2. I think plants in flower still need co2 so that we can get these lights closer.(as long as the leaf(temp does not go over 80 and vpd stays good)
Also, i found a plant to have hermied in week 2 so i removed the pollen sac and rubbed some pollen on 2 plants. Seems like they are just starting to take form on the flowers.
**need to check for hermies beginning week 2** Am happy to get seeds from these ladies as this was very isolated in the grow
________________
Day 31
Plants are starting to frost.
Group1 has swelled the most
Group 2 has average growth and nice frost
Group 3 looks like it was over dosed.
*Bras&MJ study shows that MJ does mot need to be sprayed with Bras as it will over stress the plants.
Brass was completely fine to spray without having adverse reactions.
MJ seems to decrease yields but is a worthy tradeoff(will continue to use)-*
—————
Day 32
Sprayed 2 plants with MJ(they now have been sprayed both week 4&6)
Sprayed 3 with bras(also have been sprayed twice in flower)
Finally frosting On the plants

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!

Week 6 of flowering 10/23/24
Changed nutrients to fit week 6
Buds are getting even bigger and thicker.
Defoliated a little.
Noticed a PH of 4.8 in runoff, same as the late stage of flower in my previous grow.
After lowering feed EC, CalMag on max strength, flushing with 0.8ec nutes for 3 days in a row, nothing changed and PH stayed the same.
Read in a forum thread about constant low PH in the rootzone when growing in coco.
Got great info about CEC, water, nutrients and little chemistry from a detailed explanation. (https://www.icmag.com/threads/recurring-problem-with-low-ph-in-coco.338385/page-2#post-10843765)
Flushed plants with tap water + calmag, PH 6.5.
Used 120L total for 4 plants in 2 days.
1st day: flushed after lights on, did not water until 2 hours before lights off and flushed again.
Runoff PH went up a little, but not to the correct range.
2nd day: flushed after lights on and checked runoff EC + PH, of each plant.
Fortunately, PH got corrected to 5.8, and I returned to automatic watering 4 times a day (with 10%-20% runoff).
Thoughts:
In the last grow, I thought I had a problem because of salts buildup in the media with constantly low PH in late flower.
I didn't fully correct the problem till chop day.
Same problem here in the same stage of flower without the salt buildup.
After reading every forum I could find about the problem, I understood that my bloom nutes were the main problem because of their chemical composition.
The coco ability to exchange ions lead to the low PH in the rootzone.
It got worse quickly because I did not use any tap water with the feedings, so the PH could swing easily and drastically without resistance.
After I looked online for the T.A. feeding chart, I saw they used TriPart Grow till week 7 of flower, the Nitrogen type they are using will up the PH.
CocoForCannabis chart that I'm using, has not enough nitrogen to combat the bloom nutes PH down effect in flower.
It gets even worse with RO water because there are no minerals that can resist PH down.
Now I'm using 30% tap water with rest RO water, T.A. TriPart feeding chart with calmag and silica.
Hopefully I have corrected the problem for the rest of the grow.
It wasn't easy, because there were lots of variables that worsened the problem quickly.
Now I'm checking runoff PH and EC daily.
Update on next week :)
