Day 52____________________________ - Not much has changed from last week. Just fighting with the trellis net keeping everyone held down. - pH has been strange recently. I’ve been used to the pH raising as the week goes by, but in the past week or so, pH has dropped. Used to try to keep it at 5.6 and it would slowly turn to 6.0, but a few mornings I’ve checked it, it’s been at 5.4 or 5.3, so I’ve adjusted pH to 5.8, and am just monitoring it closely. - Checking root health has been a struggle as the trellis net kinda keeps everything held down. Removed the net to make sure nothing was getting caught in the drain tubes and make sure no root rot is happening and re-installed. - Starting to get super stinky when the stems are touched Day 55____________________________ - Plants were in desperate need of some under canopy clean up. Removed lots of fans shadowing and lower, weaker branches. Noticed a few leaves not looking so hot that we’re laying on top of net pot. Assuming it’s just from being neglected. Keeping an eye on nute levels and pH just in case. Day 56____________________________ - Removed a few other fan leaves once plant repositioned itself after messing with ScrOG. - Installed small fan blowing through newly opened up under canopy to help plant breath. - Will need a bigger Dehumidifier if opening up the under canopy doesn’t help bring down moisture. Set to 45%, expecting to get closer to 55%, but still seeing times with 75% or higher. It’s averaging out to 63%, which isn’t terrible, but I know I’ll need more juice soon anyway Day 56____________________________ - First pistils are showing!!! Day 57____________________________ - Decided to throw my Amazon.com dehumidifier in the dumpster. It would run all day and only pull a few teaspoons of water from the air. Got a hold of a nice GE unit that can handle 70 pints per day of dehumidification. I have literally zero clue if that’s a lot or not, but it’s 6 times the size of my old one, so I’m sure it’ll do fine.

Candyman Day 85, Day 35 of flower! We have now hit week 5 of flower and they are starting to look and smell incredible 😍 very sweet but pungent gassy aswell. They are getting fatter by the day now. I think two will be done in 4-5 weeks 🤞🏻 I'm very happy with this brand of seeds 💯

A note on last weeks goals: - Continuing LST has been very easy with this girl. Following a VPD chart and keeping a good environment has been key to establishing a successful low stress training regiment. In the last week I decided to use stainless steel nuts and bolts as weights. I tie them to the end of the side branches rather than tieing them down to the side of the pot. This makes it easier to water.. I will use this technique again, I really like it. I also pull my plants out of the tent and place them in a tote to water them and inspect them. - I've been playing with my CO2 generators .. adding more yeast, less sugar etc.. the highest CO2 concentration I've been able to achieve is 1050 ppm. With that in mind i will probably purchase a rotometer and a CO2 tank for future runs. Furthermore I think that the yeast and sugar combo could lead to an infestation if in not carefull (bugs are attracted to sugar and yeast). I have noticed my plants are praying for 15 hours a day though and I think the CO2 has been a game changer through vegetation. A note on my environment: I decided to add photos of some of my gear for my garden. This grow I decided to swap my intake and exhaust fan placement. With putting my exhaust on the FLOOR, the air in my tent is drawn from upwards towards the floor. This gives my plants proper contact time with the CO2. It also takes the heat from the top of my tent and pulls it downwards acting as a heat source for my crop... In my pictures you will notice my 4 inch inline fan and my 6 inch inline fan are attached to a secondary room. This helps me draw fresh air while releasing my exhaust away from my tent room. WHEN GOING INTO FLOWER I turn up my intake fan to get cool air to the top of my tent. The exhaust draws it down cooling my tent when the lights are turned up in the last stage of flower. As a new grower this has been the step to changing my entire grow. Everything is much healthier and I owe it all to my environment, and Fastbuds genetics. One more thing: I almost burnt my house down and electrocuted my ass with a cheap water heater... careful while playing with electricity and water 🤣🔥🔥⚡️ Next week's goals: - Turn up lights slowly - Continue to play with CO2 generators to try and achieve 1200+ ppm concentration - Continue training and defoliation - keep up pest management.. these fungus gnats keep trying to regroup and they're starting to hurt my feelings.. I get rid of them in my tent but they keep coming back! The bud sites are stacking nicely, I'm getting excited she starting to remind me of the Fastbuds Forbidden Runtz auto when she went into flower...and that was the best plant I've ever grown 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Happy growing everyone!

Another successful week plants aren't dead. Did some more defoliation this week to allow light to penetrate the smaller colas at the bottom of the canopy, still haven't found a feeding schedule that works for me, going to cut my feedings in half next week because I'm starting to see some minor nute burn on the leaf tips. Good week though I'm pleased with it onto week 10/week 5 of flower!

Doing really good. I've introduced some flower stacker, worm tea concentrate, hydro guard root inoculant and some calmag with iron. I also started place a layer of ice on top of the medium to trigger trichome and to get them beautiful colors. I've been doing the ice thing in my last couple of harvest and I swear that it increased the trichome coverage and I get some nice colors to pop. I usually go with organic soil amendment for nutrients. However I used a new to me soil called Biochar. It's like a bunch of small pieces of tree bark. It has simular characteristics like I have to water every day because this product dose not retain moisture at all. I did add a good layer about 1 gallon of Purple Cow Indicanja mixed 50/50 with Happy Frog soil. I loosened the first couple of inches in the container with my fingers and worked it into the soil and watered it in slowly. The addition of the new top layer of soil and nutrients have paid off well. I'm still about 3 weeks out from harvest and I can't wait to see how fat these flowers get. They're already the size of golf balls and I swear I can literally see them growing before my eyes, at least a 1/8 of a inch of girth a day. I have two more feedings to go before it's time to start the flushing process and with the addition of the ice I'm anticipating some lovely colors. Cheers!!!

still seeing bud swelling and pistil growth. no visible fade yet.. vase cutting finally started to fade.... going to taper back to the boost only now going forward and ensure it doesnt dry out.. can see a bit more of its sativa traits in the bud structure now too which is interesting

the plant still continues to seem like its unhappy. im looking at the other BB and im seeeing a lot more bud swelling. still very lime green and now it seems like its fading to red and orange on the buds.. i suspect my timings with this strain are well off. too much nutes, nutes probably should havr been switched to boost and clran water a week ago.. im probably well into finish mode with these colours.. we persist. nice crystals forming so hopefully the swell comes.... its still drinking loads

They are doing great. I did add some slow release amendment because she's losing a little too much green for my liking at this stage. I am liking how she stacked and her flowers are getting fat fast. I love Barney's Farm genetics especially the Dos si Dos 33. It seems like once noticable flowers have formed they literally mature over night,one of the fastest blooming strains I have grown. Also she's so easy to clone even in mid flower, which is my favorite time to take cutting due to the prolific branching caused by the re vegging process also known as monster cropping. Cheers!!!

the back leaves continue to look like they have a mag problem i think. no doubt either me overfeeding it or simply shitty soil ph.... buds seem to have slowed a bit as a test i will be giving this just boost from now being day 61 only.. i heard most autos dont go past 85 and i could do with sorting out the nute burn... pisstake given the fatty bud still nice and green though so no nitrogen issues. *shrug* i have no idea what im doing really...

This week I put up a long video that features my new tent and new clones from these current clones that are flowing. The hairs are turning color now and I have given them there last feeding, only straight ph balanced water from here on out to flush the plants so they taste nice.

Растения продолжают развиваться. Начинаю mine-lining тренировки. Для контроля влажности в гроубокс установлен увлажнитель воздуха. С автоматическим контролем влажности. Удаётся выдерживать влажность в пределах 30-70%. Очень радует наблюдать за растениями удаленно через веб-камеру. Приложил видео, когда включается пар, выглядит просто потрясающе, наслаждайтесь со мной. Наберётся 100 подписок, расшарю трансляцию:-) Всем добра.
