Another week in the books! The plan is: starting a dry-back on the 4th of next month and chopping the following week. I haven't top dressed since flower but they don't seem to mind. I'm not seeing any senescence so far or hunger, just chugging along happily! They've been in the colder temps as I've closed off the heater vents for the basement. With a high of 74 and a low of 60 they're getting a gentle simulated, winter-temperature swing. I've been stretching the time between waterings to get some extra frost but I hope the intentional dry-back does what it did for my accidental dry-backs haha Thanks for reading and I wish bountiful harvests for all :)

1/6/2020 - What a week! She is finally flowering for real and so I changed her nutrient schedule to "Early Bloom". Increasing FloraMicro and FloraBloom while decreasing FloraGro and adding Liquid KoolBloom. Despite their difference in height, they are the same distance from the light due to the awkward mounting of these lights on the ceiling of this tent. Currently sitting ~40cm from the light. This should allow room for the buds to grow up towards the light and benefit from the increased umols around 30cm. I also took the opportunity to remove select foliage that was more than 90cm from the light, mostly removing growth-tips and leaving the leaves to their transpiration duties. I still feel like they are crowding each other, but they do seem quite happy nonetheless. Thanks for stopping by the garden, and, as always, Grower Love. ~Spaz

For the first time this week I added fertilizer of 0.5 each, and faced a very unpleasant problem, the plant rushed up so much that at the moment the top cola reached the height of the lamp, and the temperature there is quite high, very much afraid that it could damage the plant itself, and It all happened because I did the maine lining, and the central cola went to grow up, I don’t know how to solve this issue, but soon I think I’ll decide this question, wait for 6 weeks!

Veräuft sehr gut, aber mein Problem ist,das ich nicht genau weiß ,welche Blätter besser noch weg können,und welche Sie benötigt.Bei meinen letzten Grows habe ich zuviel abgeschnitten,und die Pflanzen haben es mir nicht gedankt.Jemand einen Tip.Habe dutzende Tutorials geschaut,aber es ist trotzdem schwer. P.S so ein Stretch gibt es gar nicht ca 60cm in 3 Wochen gewachsen,glaubt mir Keiner!!! Habe jetzt ca 30% Blätter abgeschnitten, es werden noch etliche folgen.Am WE wird sie nochmal richtig entlaubt,will sie nicht so stressen!!

This plant has been a pain in the A**... it started doing LST on itself prior to me topping it. Leaning to the side but growing upwards? Really odd to see.

Auto Northern Dragon Fuel grew really well in a small potter of a gallon and a half. I unfortunately had too much nitrogen in her system during flowering. This effeced my yield some. The flower that is there has a great cherry wood diesel smell. It was also very frosty and looks potent. I should get several ounces for sure once it is processed.

Day 64: she’s finally looking like she’s starting to bulk up. Trichomes are everywhere and she smells magnificent. Temperature and humidity levels have also been great the last week and she’s really progressing. I’m feeding her 1ml calmag, 3ml bloom and 2ml topmax per litre and she seems great other than a few tips burnt and a couple bent 90 degrees up a slightly brown ish colour. I can’t invest in a led light yet so I used what I had and added a 5000k led light around day 62 and although it’s the wrong end of the spectrum it seems to be proving great. Any comments are appreciated! Happy growing😎

The High intensity was to strong (clearly my fault) in the beginning which stunted her overall stretch, she however still delivered super dense, terpene and trichome loaded buds.

no signs of pests during the grow. only one time i had ants trying to infest one plant but easily got rid of them by using cinnamon around the stem. she grows easy and is fun to train, you don't have to be an expert. in the late flowering i got some budrot in both plants and stalled the harvest by inspecting and cutting it away daily, haven't lost a lot due to it. i would recommend this strain as she is a high trichome producer, big yielder and easy to grow plant that gives nice buds with a good smell and greath high. she is a strain that makes you talkative, giggly and euphoric and is surely gonna give you a good sleep. be sure to go easy on her as she is a strong breed. an amazing strain to grow. she creates colourfull purple buds filled with trichomes that is really good for the chilling occasions, be sure not to have to go somewhere as she will last long and prepare for a joyfull evening with lots of laughing and good talks. i'll post more pictures after the drying process!

The caterpillars were in fact not gone, as I suspected. Already two bud rots on Ozz, both with a caterpillar inside. Let’s see the extent of the damage but’m I expecting the worst. On the other hand her two sisters don’t show any signs of pest. They also smell much better (very tropical), not a fan of Ozz smell now I stop feeding them as I will harvest the two smaller in 1/2 weeks and Ozz one week after

Die bis jetzt dickste Lady von allen. Sehr viele starke Triebe. Das Stretchen geht aber auch schon los.

-- day 29 -- Started week 5 off with watering the plants. The nutrients from the soil are probably used by now so I'm adding a first small dose of Alga Grow. -- day 30 -- Its been 10 days since I changed the lights to 12/12. Switched the lights to full capacity with the bloom mode on. -- day 31 -- I'm already seeing the first signs of flowering today. Noticed first signs of light burn so raised the lights to 55 cm above canopy. -- day 32 -- Watered the plants with 2 ml/l alga grow + 2 ml/l bloom. -- day 34 -- I think I've been too cautious with nutrients. Plants are relatively light green colored. Not sure if I mentioned this before but I chose to schedule my lights so that they turn on at 22:00 and off at 10:00 in the morning. I did this because the room warms up with lights on and keeps the temperature up at night without any heating on to save energy. Only disadvantage; I can only look at my plants in the morning and late evening ;)

Buenas chicos, ya empezo lo que nos gusta, la floración, y en este caso iniciamos con un 55% de grow proline y 45% de bloom, hago esto porque no me gusta que amarillen temprano, aun no le pongo el co2 ya que pienso aplicarlo a partir de la 2 semana, me toca hacer un poco de poda de hojas grandes y debajo de la malla pero por lo demás todo va bien, vamos a ver si sacamos buenos cogollos con este cultivo. Gracias por su apoyo a todos

Day 84 The Durban plants are actively growing foliage and reaching for the light, despite being bent. Every day after the lights go out, I bend their tops parallel to the floor (training). Sometimes the stems break slightly, but they are still flexible enough to recover. In 2-3 weeks, I plan to transplant them to a permanent location, where there will be 20-30 cm of space above the tops for ventilation. In the next cycle, I think four weeks of vegetation will be enough for ripening. At Gordem Delicatesies (GD), Brazilians have stretched in 20 weeks, sometimes faster. For me, this variety develops more slowly; I'm not chasing maximum speed. Meanwhile, the Jack Herer is ripening in the box above them. I'm waiting for a manicure table (thanks to Mila for the tip!). As soon as it arrives, I'll start harvesting. I'm glad that with this device I can meet the deadlines precisely. Day 87 They hit a lamp and set one top on fire. The others miraculously survived. Today I tied the plants to their pots again with wire. I bent them so they were 10-15 cm from the lamp. Some were tighter. I cut out a 5-liter bag containing the lower branches, which were turning yellow from lack of light, and the leaves the plant had shed on its own. Watering was light but regular. I watered 3 liters by hand on top of the automatic watering. I added 1.5 liters of Simplex Taste and 1.5 liters of Simplex Aroma Punch. I started adding Simplex SilliX again—organic silicon is needed to strengthen the stems. Right now they look rather stiff; they bend easily by hand. This is a plus in my situation, but in a couple of weeks I want to see stronger, more vigorous central colas in the box. Mold was appearing on the dry leaves at the bottom that I didn't remove in time. I took out all the bushes and carefully removed all the dry and yellow leaves. I chose the ones that came off without effort. Their plant has already finished growing. After this procedure, the fan was able to blow air through the base, meaning less mold. Young buds are ripening on both plants, about 1 cm in diameter. The upper leaves and flowers are healthy; they were eating the lower burdock leaves. It's interesting to watch the biofertilizer from Greens work. I'll add Simplex Mass and Simplex Power separately in the next few days. And after that, HB-101. I'll water with Fitosporin at least once. I also want to add "33 Bogatyrs" bacteria – @NBRZ recommended it. Once a week, I manually pour a liter of solution with Simplex Taste (very similar to horse manure from the garden) and Simplex Aroma Punch – a potassium-sulfur additive to enhance aroma and flavor.

* ********* Week 11 - June 20 to 26, 2020 - Days 71 to 77 from germination *********** * It is the end of flush week and she went into darkness on Wednesday night, day 75, for two days. Saturday will be harvest day and start and the dry process👍 This week she continued to fill in and she also pushed out more frosty tricombs!! The fade happened this week more and she fed off of more of the nutrients within the plant.....perfect😃......would like a little more even but she was ready based on tricombs. Would like to have seen the lower leaves a little more yellow but its good. I am feeling very strongly that the big part of the pH issues this run was a change in feed water. I have always used bottled RO water for all my grows, except outdoors, but this grow I switched to tap water. Dechlorinated the water with air stone and gave it 24 hours min before using. Wanted to save some money and tired of lugging bottles downstairs a couple of times a week☹️ This is worked out nicely and a lot more convenient. However, the city must be putting some crap in the water that is causing issues in my media and raises the pH after the watering. Out of the tap it is 8.4pH and 275ppm. Since ppm were not too bad in my opinion I moved forward without filtering the water.......oops🤬🤬🤬 Out of options on what is causing the issue, I switched back to RO water late last week........all the girls are happier!!!! F......missed the cause for weeks. Always learning from this plant and my own mistakes to get better every run😉👍 Also wanted to add a little more stress to girl to help push out some increased resin. I drilled a 5/16” hole into the main stem to cause her stress. I did this rather than trying to break a branch and will see it goes this run. Sterilized a new bit in Alcohol and went for it. They went into darkness about a couple of hours later. Excited to see what happens when she comes out to get chopped😃😃 Not really a lot more to add this week as it was mainly looking at the tricombs and her buds. The pH will impact the harvest but she has been fun to grow and very resilient to pest and bug issues as well as grower curve balls. As always.......nice job Sweet Seeds....... SWS56 is very solid and I look forward to running her again one day. Beautiful little girl and makes me smile😃😃😃 Little more detail...... June 20/20 - Day 71 - Rezin and Liquid Weight @ 2ml/L = 285ppm and 4.0pH - 8L given to get a good flush....pH still running around 7.4 - Runoff in pots already were 7.9pH and 685ppm. - after 8L water runoff was 7.4pH and 360ppm. - she is 20” tall and 24” wide. - a number of clear tricombs but more becoming cloudy. June 21/20 - Day 72 - dry out day. - buds are firming up......squeezed a couple🧐 June 22/20 - Day 73 - Rezin @ 1ml/L = 120ppm and pH the water to 2.7!!!!!!!!! - Given 2L watering. - No runoff water and I am good with that as I want the low pH water to stay in the medium. - her frost levels are really coming out now.....was able to lower tent temps to 75 degrees and 51% humidity......its been raining a bit so damn humidity has been high. June 23/20 - Day 74 - 2L plain water feed - 80ppm and pH to 2.4!!!!!! - not excited about these crazy low pH numbers but doing what we can - her tops are getting more pointy now and ripening nicely - leaves continue to fade......she is close - checking tricombs, I think we are done and tomorrow will be her last day so that I can take down on Saturday. June 24/20 - Day 75 - 2L plain water feed - 80ppm and pH to 3.0 - Going into darkness tonight so this was her last bit of moisture. - drilled a hole into the stem.....was going to do a couple of holes but not trying this method before I decided to leave it with one hole. - into darkness tonight So we finish up the week with her in the dark. Next update will be the harvest!! Thanks very much for taking the time to review my diary!! Sorry for running behind often on this run.........everyone has had a busy life the last couple of months in the world and its been no different here...........a huge Kudos to all the Growmie‘s that are able to keep up with their diaries on daily basis on GrowDiaries.......its a commitment😃👍👍 Sweet Seeds girls are very solid genetics with great vigour and resilience.......this strain is no different........great job Sweet Seeds🙏
