Shortly after they were switched to flowering (after week 3) the plants continue to stretch and then start to develop their first flowers. Now in week 7 all plants have very nice flower clusters all over the plant and side branches. They have grown to 45 cm (=Shiva Skunk on left side) and 40 cm (Serious Kush on right side of aisle) in height respectively and all plants have a nice dark green color, which shows they are healthy and also that the Advanced Nutrients schedule works like a treat. The Q6W-Gen.2 LED-Lamps are now dimmed to 100% (=three green LEDs on the dimmer) and work on FULL POWER, which ensures full fledged flower production. Both varieties have now started to exude their typical aroma. The Shiva Skunk starts to smell musky and sweet, while the Serious Kush smells 'gassy' and 'fuely' like its OG-Kush heritage. The flower clusters on the Serious Kush appear to grow denser than the clusters on the Shiva Skunk.

A more difficult week. I've been battling the water consumption on two of the girls. I ordered and hooked up the Blumats auto watering system. I followed the instructions to a T but they don't work on those settings for this type of plant. They must be recommending for succulents cause the girls dried out right away with the settings. So I've been slowing dialing it in the get the proper amount to release. This is the other girl consuming a lot. But with the auto watering system she's holding her own. Dimmed to 80% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by! You can find the light on Grow Diaries: https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-150-watts You can find the light on Medic Grow's website: https://medicgrow.com/

Starting to show some pretty significant flowers this week! Super happy with bud development so far. Had a lot of issues with humidity in this week, but finally got them sorted after a little defoliation

Week 18 Day 120 (11/12/2020): I checked the girl’s trichomes and they are looking great. They are definitely getting more amber but still a small percentage. Also most of the pistils have browned now so I think she is about 2 weeks away from harvest now. So I will start the flush at the next watering! Day 121 (12/12/2020): The girl is looking good today but the leaves are going more an more yellow and crispy. Although I think during this time it is actually good news and I will be happy for her to take up all the nutrients left into the buds to make them extra tasty!🤤 Day 122 (13/12/2020)💧: Sooo this week is the start of the flush, just 1.5L of water. They are definitely ready for the flush and the buds are looking gorgeous! So gorgeous, in fact, that we cannot wait for the girls to be ready. So I cut some stems off to dry 🙊 We basically realised that they will not be ready and dry by Christmas (plus we would want to still cure them for min 2 weeks) and so I cut some of the smaller stems off to get some buds ready for Christmas celebrations 🎄 I only cut 1 stem off the girl and in the photo you can see how much smaller it is than the main buds. I’ve put the flowers into a box with holes in a room that has good airflow. I’ll also make sure to weigh and add it to the final dry weight. Day 123 (14/12/2020): Didn’t have time today to take pics of the girls but I’m sure they are fine 😉 Day 124 (15/12/2020): I swear the buds look fatter and fatter every single day that I check her. Looking great, smelling great, and will definitely taste great! Day 125 (16/12/2020)💧: Second flush of the week, great stuff. Just gave her 1.5L of water and ripped off some dry leaves. There are some stems at the bottom that are quite weak and cannot hold their weight. A lot of them have bent over and I don’t think they will get enough water to survive until harvest. At this point it is too late to cut them off but I have definitely learned to lollipop for the future! Day 126 (17/12/2020): What a great end to the week and just 1 more week to go! Buds are looking astonishing at this point. And I swear they are getting more and more red even though I thought they wouldn’t. The trichomes are developing beautifully as well, definitely harvest-ready in just a few days! And next week, I will be watering twice and probably harvest after the whole week is finished, so on Christmas day! What a great present 🎁

the roots obstruct the drainage of the system and the water does not descend into the tank easily and the rockwools and roots are flooded, this causes the increase of ph in the reservoir and in the rockwools. this week I hope to solve the problem, for the moment I use a timer for the water pump (15 on 30 off). update: I solved the problem of the roots on the drain by folding the mat on itself with the whole pack of roots descended into the tub, a little rough but functional. but unfortunately I lost almost a week to flush the girls due to the flooding of the root zone I have to start halving the doses of nutrients again ... ... it was a bad week but maybe I learned something 🍀 water pump restored 24/24h Light lifted up from 50 to 90cm Ppfd 1300 > 1000

8-17 Sunday 29.5 inches Monday 30 Tuesday 30. Stretch should be over. Wasn't easy, but I managed to barely touch her, till day 21. Told the misses, there down, don't question just remove! Haha maybe wish I did 1 last node, but I didn't and I'm fineeeee. And adjusted LST a tad, just to give a bit more space. She did just fine on her own. J just HAVE to do something to mine. 😂 All feely and stuff I guess. Oh on how am I an idiot this week! Feed, feed, flush. Feed= 2 liters. Flush x2 So 4 liters. NO!!!!!! Dumbass and you know this! 😂 4 gallons. I mean baseline, but won't hopefully be needed. Maybe why my ph has been bottoming out. Anyways find out in a week or so. This is the time it happens. I really enjoy her sleekness, especially after that big bushy Frostbanger! She's really slurpin down the water daily now!

Increased their food by a tad. Looked perfectly health raised to about 1900ppm. Again spider mites at it crawling up every leaf and creating a colony. I thought it was over until I sat there nearly every night finding the f*****s and rubbing the leaves with the spray. Defoliation was needed ASAP due to them stretching nicely. Started slowly from the bottom up. (repeated this process every 3-5 days.)

Another week just passed. I have reduced the main flowering nutrient by 1ml, because I’ve introduced Plagron Green Sensation as an additional flowering nutrient. This thing increases your yield incredibly! If you start looking at bud formations starting this week, you will notice significant changes.
