Well thats my grow diary. I hope it ends up being informative of helpful to someone somewhere along the line. I have more grows going, but I am going to skip on diaries for now. See you next time.

5/11 I DID NOT WATER. A COUPLE LOOKED DRY BUT STILL HAD HEFT AND I COULD FEEL MOUSTURE IN THE SOIL. I should've taken more pictures. I forgot it's a new week. Oh well. I'll be back over and I'm planning to bring the girls outside for the first time if it warms up a little more. It's windy as fuck but I can put them in the garage with the doors open. As long as that's not the direction of the wind. I raised the L.E.D light and lowered the hps. I also TRIED to FIM a 10th planet and an mk ultra. I may have just topped them. We'll see how it turns out before I do anything to the others. Pink kush grows slow and compact. Very similar to my experience with purple punch. I have two plants that have slightly twisted leaves. Nothing else is wrong with anything. Looking at the stippling on the leaf I think it might just be either low humidity or slight wind burn or a combination of the two. Now that I've looked again I think it might just be the first 5 finger leaf on those pink kush that I mat have mistaken. I'll keep an eye out. I feel better having done some research. I'll put some more pictures up and I'll update what it is that I get done. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AROUND THREE. EVERUTHING LOOKED GREAT AND THE LEAVES WETE PRAYING ON SOME. I MAY NEED TO WATER SELECT PLANTS TOMORROW. I'LL PLAY IT BY EAR. LOWER THE HPS AND RAISING THE LED WAS A WISE CHOICE I THINK. OH AND THE "TWISTED" LEAF I WAS WORRIED ABOUT IS NOTHING. JUST THE FAN TO CLOSE AND A FOMBINATION OF LOW HUMIDITY AND MINOR HEAT STRESS. ITS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. I WANTED TO BRING THE GIRLS OUT TODAY. ITS SUNNY AND 60° BUT THE WIND IS WHIPPING! WE'VE GOT GOOD WEATHER COMING UP THOUGH WITH TEMPS IN THE 70'S. I THINK TOMORROW ILL CLEAN/SANITIZE THE CAGE AND WASH/SANITIZE THE GROW BAGS. 5/12 Looking and lifting some of the pots I found some that were pretty much totally dry. I watered the majority of all the plants. If soil was moist I left it alone. If it looked a little dry I gave it a little water. I didn't measure the water but it wasnt even ALL of what I had left from LAST WATERING (which was like a qtr gallon If that). I just don't want to over water. The ones that I went light on last time were the ones that were dry. Plants seem to explode after watering but this wasn't nearly as much. Everything is looking great. It's easy to tell these are all indicas due to the structure and leaf shape. Much different than even the Chem Dog #4 which doesn't LOOK as "indicay" as some of the others. I wanted to bring them outside today but it's only 50 out. I'm not going to make the same mistake as years past and stress the plants. When we get a nice warm day I'll bring them out. Other plants are ready to be topped or fimmed but I haven't done it yet. Also need to clean the cage and wash the bags. 5/13 It's 60° at 9am so I think the girls will be going outside for a little bit. Didn't fully water but I used what was left of the gallon and gave them that. Some are much drier than others. I'll probably give them a full watering tomm. I only gave them a little today because I didn't want them drying out. I FIMMed a Special Kush today. WE'LL see how the hst turns out. EDIT: WENT AND BROUGHT THE GIRLS OUT FOR FOUR HOURS IN INDIRECT SUNLIGHT. THE TENTH PLANETS WERE THE ONLY ONES THAT LOOKED LIKE THEY HAD AN ISSUE. JUST MINOR HEAT OR LIGHT ISSUES WITH A COUPLE FAN LEAVES. EVERYTHING ELSE SEEMED LIKE THEY SHOT UP IN SIZE. THE LARGER CONTAINERS STILL SEEM KINDA MOIST BUT SOME ARE DRY. I NEED TO GET ON A STABLE WATER SCHEDULE. ITS HARD WITH DUFFERENT PLANTS OF VARYING SIZES. STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO. 5/14 One plant was super light today and was a little droopy. I WATERED EVERYTHING TODAY USING APPROX A HALF GALLON. I brought them outside for the second day. I left them out for about 3hrs. It's hot today. I'm still floored that chatgtp gave me exact directions for hardening my plants off at my exact location taking the weather into consideration! That is awesome. They're all doing good. Pink kush is the slow starter this year. Kind of like purple punch was. The only plants that had ANY damage on them was the two 10th planet's and its not really damage. It's just a LITTLE mottling on the leaf and the serrations pointing down. It's weird because this strain did great here last time. The Special Kush #1 and the Pink Kush would probably be fine to leave out soon. Hindu Kush parents make those strains extremely resilient. The one chem dog #4 looks out of place with all tjis big fat indica leaves. I'm hoping the topping and fim-ing will take. It looks like it will. 5/15 Everything is looking great! I have some work to do bit then I'll be over to bring the girls out for a few hours. I'll edit this when I do. EDIT: BROUGHT THE GIRLS OUT FOR THREE HOURS TODAY. I THOUGHT THE TENP WENT DOWN TO 73 BUT TUAT WAS INDOORS. OH WELL. THEY STILL DID GREAT! THEY WERE ALL LOOKING OUT OF THE LEAN-TO LIKE SUNFLOWERS! THE STRAIGHTEN OUT AFTER BEING UNDER THE GROW LIGHTS. I'M PLANNING TO CONTINUE TO HARDEN THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. STILL NEED TO CLEAN BAGS AND GROW AREA. I HAVE 'A' CAMERA DOWN. TRIED TO FIX IT TODAY BUT I WOULD GET RO THE LAST PART BUT THE CAMERA WOULDNT READ THE QR CODE ON MY PHONE. I EMAILED THE COMPANY BUT IF I DONT HEAR BACK BY TOMORROW AND I CANT FIX IT ILL JUST BUY ANOTHER CAMERA TO ADD TO THE SYSTEM. ITS THE OLDEST CAMERA I HAVE AND ITS DONE ME 5 GOOD YEARS. MAYBE ITS TIME TO RETIRE IT. 5/16 I watered a few of the girls this morning with a small ring around the pot. I brought them outside and am leaving them for 3.5 hours today in the lean-to. They get indirect light without all the wind this way. I'll slowly increase the hours outside until there is enough daylight for them to go outside without revegging. When I put them out I noticed that a few were light and since it was close to 80° I watered most everything. I used under a half gallon. I'll see how they do from here and then move forward. I fixed my down security camera and secured my cage. Now I just need to finish hardening off, clean/sanitize bags/environment and put them in tjeir final homes. I'm not rushing it though. I've learned my lesson with that. 5/17 Plants did great yesterday and were perky and praying this morning. It was HOT yesterday too. Got into the low 80's. It's 57° degrees at 9am and it's overcast and sprinkling. I haven't decided if I'm going to bring the girls out today. It might be a good day to try some direct sunlight. I'll update whatever I decide to do.

Nov 20 - Watered Older plant at 8.30AM. Both plants are bulking up nicely. I think this will be the last week before they get the chop! Also Defoliated wilted leaves and burnt tips. Nov 21 - Cloudier trichomes, amber heads and some decapitated stalks. In harvest window. Just want the youngest colas to develop a bit further. Nov 22 - Watered Younger Plant at 10AM, defoliated wilted leaves as usual. Should water Older Plant today with some defoliation. There are more wilted leaves on older plant. Senescence started on Younger plant approximately a week ago and is prevalent on a few top colas on Younger Plant. Nov 23 - Older Plant watered at 9.30AM. Likely underwatered by half a day or so. Trichomes are still glassy. Nov 24 - Observed older plant trichomes, they're mainly cloudy with some amber. I will likely chop the older plant tomorrow morning. I'll give the younger plant another week and will water today - as GD member outlined pistil development is not finalized. Nov 25 - Chopped older plant at 5AM, trying to limit light. She's suspended upside down on a wire that I'm 50% sure will hold. Drying environment is Fridge set to 60F with roughly 60RH. Nov 26 - Harvested at 5AM. Plant fell down a couple times upside down due to poor rail made of gardening wire. I switched to paper bags which should be better for humidity control too. A very rough almost unperceivable wet trim left colas weighing at approximately 130g. Watered Younger plant at 8PM.

***Note that I started to count the days when I placed the seeds between paper towels. The seeds were planted 3 days later and sprouted from the ground 2 days after being planted. D63 (26/04/2021) : I top dressed the soil of every pot with Gaia Green power bloom 2-8-4, earthworm casting, bone meal and shrimp compost. I think it was a bit late in the flower to top dress the Glue Gelato. From now on I will only give water. D66 (29/04/2021): I saw more calcium deficiency but on the Banana Kush this time. She is really close from the light and I think this is why the closest leaves got some rust brown ish spots. The lamp under the Banana Kush and the Gelato is higher now. I made a gallon of home made organic CalMag supplement with Epsom salt, crushed egg shell and molasse. I gave all 3 plants 200ml of home made CalMag when watering them. I will gave them approximately 100-150ml of this CalMag supplement every other watering. D69 (02/05/2021): The smell is crazy 😍 It smells soooo good! The house is starting to smell strong too 😳😅. - Light: the lights are at 100% and at 12 inch form the plants. - Temperature: during the day: 24-26C ; during the night: 20C. - Humidity: the humidity is maintain around 46-48% all the time. - Air circulation: There is an oscillating fan on the ground, one fixed fan pointing on top of the canopy and one fixed fan to help cool the lights. - Water: I gave water every other day or when the ground feel dry or the pots feels light.

The lamp finally arrived, installed it, and now I’m making the plants work. Total cost came to $ 314 including shipping and taxes — Kingbrite P55 320W. Ordered from Alibaba. At least I’m trying — the new lamp runs much cooler and can’t heat things up outdoors at all, so I’m pushing hard to hit my 30°C target to get CO₂ working at full efficiency. PPFD is no longer an issue, completely covered now. Temperature is the main battle, had to crank the light to 100%. The results are obvious — leaves are praying, so everything is running at the limit. Also added EOD-FR for 6 minutes after the main light turns off. The plants have started gaining size — #4 is in the lead, #3 isn’t stretching upward at all. Who would’ve thought at the start… should’ve set up a betting pool. Overall growth isn’t explosive, more steady and controlled. Switched the feed to flowering. Keeping nitrogen at 160 ppm for a bit longer, then dropping it to 100–120 ppm in week 3 of flower. Increased potassium to 160 ppm and phosphorus to 50 ppm. pH situation is a bit weird — plant #6 has 5.1 in the runoff and slightly elevated EC, while #3 and #4 are already at 7.1 and 7.3, but EC is lower than input and no issues — weird stuff. By the way, the supplemental lighting arrived today, going to install it. Got blue to try and reduce stretch after the flip, but looks like it won’t be needed this run. Also a new FR bar, 90 cm instead of two short ones, plus two white+red bars for undercanopy lighting to fight popcorn buds. Also custom-made from Alibaba.

The plants had been a little root-bound before transplanting them into the bigger pots, this showed in a yellowing of the leaves and a slowed growth. During week 5, now in the bigger pots, the plants are recovering quickly. The start to grow in a nice healthy green color and quickly get bigger in size. Since the light-mix has nutrients in it for appr. 2 weeks, I only add a little BIO NOVA Roots and BN-Zym to my 'FLEXITANK' reservoir. After adding the nutrients I measure the ph-value and see its 6,6. That is too high for cannabis-plant on soil, they cannot take up all nutrients at that ph-level. Therefore I use ph-min from BIO NOVA to decrease the value of the 100 liter nutrient solution in my reservoir to ph=6,0. At this ph-level the plants can take up all nutrients they need for a healthy growth. My two SANlight EVO4-120 LED-fixtures are hanging 75 cm above the plants and are tilted inwards by 11 degrees, following the recommendations of the lights manufacturer. The fixtures are dimmed to 60% of power (=1 green light ON on the dimmer) at this stage, so they plants get a nice stretch and grow into bigger plants fast.

Blackberry is gorgeous. Rub a stem or lightly touch a bud and your left with a deep berry smell with a backing of the earthy kush. Hope to see the flowers put on some real mass soon. Now I have some pics of the others. Whiskey blew part Blackberry in height. The stretch is crazy. No matter how close or far the light is she reaches for it. Cherry is a squat little girl. She is thicc. With 2 "c".

Le Royal Gorilla 🦍 stanno proprio 😌 una meraviglia, avvicinandomi sento un adore floreale meraviglioso e già posso vedere il ghiaccio ❄️ sulle foglie da zucchero, non vedo l’ora di vederle alla fine della 9º settimana come saranno gonfie e gelide 🤞🌬️🚀✨mi piace tanto questa varietà, è la terza volta che la coltivo e sono rimasto sempre soddisfatto, a parte ovviamente gli errori da coltivatore 👨‍🌾 inesperto ma sicuramente quelle volte ho avuto la fortuna di trovare ottimi fenotipi…cerchiamo di tirare fuori il massimo da ognuna 🤩🙌🦍📸

July 1st germination day Things went well. Started her in paper towel, She split the next day. Had a tap root on day 4 and placed her in her forever home. Popped out of the soil on day 6 and looks very happy. Soil is Vegetable and Herb mix from the store with a bit of perlite mixed in for aeration.

- 2.5mL water this week. Decided to add 1/4 veg nutes. Thinking if going 1/2 dose next watering. - Scratch LST, will see how she naturally grows out. Will still defoliate - Gives off a slight smell at times - Growing and green 🌱

solo me fui dos días de la casa y cuando llegue así estaba, va muy bien su crecimiento Bueno como ven e ido podando las hojas bajas para que pueda coger más luz su tallo, ahora mismo la tengo en un indoor casero que tengo por qué el clima está muy lluvioso

The temperature had some fluctuations, and the plant got a bit more humidity a little bit of mold on a few fan leaves.. a bit too much water consumption

Day 35 of the 12/12 light cycle, flowering 4 plants. Organic LivingSoil. Going slow on the defoliation. 1)24K Gold 2) 24K Gold Clone 3) Unknow Kush III 4) Unknow Kush IV Begginer on KNF and JADAM agriculture methods.

Day 28. Trim them 3 times last week. Trying to figure out how much stretch I'll get with led lights. Haven't used led forever. Grew this last grow under hps got 571 grams with 600 hps.

08/10/22 watered with Recharge

🙃

Gonna a bit more NITROGEN!☘️

Welcome to week 6 of the FastBuds LSD-25. I'm a little concerned that she's not turning purple. Other LSD-25 journals the color comes in a little later. Another concern is brown spots on the leaves which seems to be a calcium deficiency 😰. I've already tried to correct the issue by bumping up the CalMag to 4mL/gal and getting the ph down to 6.2. Some defoliation by removing leaves that are covering bud sites. The training on her is pretty good, kinda level canopy, and good light penetration. A longer time-lapse will be setup 👍 stay tuned for the next update. Happy holidays and happy growing!!! Note: add Dolomite lime to soil to provide Calcium and Magnesium 😉
