trimmed and netted the plants last night, 12/30, and the energy pushed the plants to stretch another 1/2 inch+ this will be the last week of vegetation as I prep this light leaking tent for flower, not a fan of mars hydro at all right now. their poles are the weakest I've encountered yet, too many light leaks and this is the first grow with it. My high cfm fan , which is only a 4", is pulling the fabric too much and causing the leaks to grow a bit. This is not new, its been happening with indoor tents for a while now but I thought a grow company such as MH would have a decent, respectable tent. My solution is Blackout Curtains draped over the sides. However, I am hesitant to do this with the MH tent as the poles for the tent are too weak as it is, tsk tsk tsk mars hydro. will continue to increase the watts the next 6 days HAPPY NEW YEAR a combination of light and fresh soil has made the plants stretch so I will finish tightening up the MH tent today and ill start flower tomorrow, day 62. while adjusting the height I must have nudged the dial for the dimmer and sent it to 184w. this would have been a big jump but manageable but I lowered the light 7" and the plants took a bit of a hit. I adjusted the light back down to 160w and I'll let the plants recover before anymore adjustments.

Day 56-63 (Day 57) I might have to fix the light to the roof of the tent so I can get another 3 inches up. The ppfd is just too intense at this height. The node stacking is super tight, I’m seeing some droop on almost every plant and the plants just look stunted. I might have to take out the big shelf I just paid 90$ for and raise the light to get the ppfd level down. This happened my last grow as well. It’s a great light for flowering but sucks ass for veg unless it’s hung 5’ above the canopy. I’ve seen videos of others with the same light and they have to fix it to the roof. The dimming function only works with a master controller I don’t have the money for right now. Pulling bbb #2. I’m seeing very small but clear pollen sacks. It’s also drooping like crazy. The roots don’t look as healthy as some of the other males I pulled earlier. They have a slight brown tinge but still mostly white. I wonder if I accidentally gave top dressed it too many times when I mixed them all up a while ago. I’m going to transplant bbb’s #1, #3, #6 & #7 into my 10 gallon destiny/coco pots lightly water. This is kind of a gamble because 2 of them are not showing definitively. Although I’m about 75% sure they’re fems. If not, I got my two backups. (Day 58) I was reading about symptoms of high PH and I definitely have it indicated by the twisted and stunted growth on top. I’m going to try to water in a full gallon at 5.8 and see if I get a good response. I sprayed the pump nozzle directly into the soil after it was empty to put some oxygen into that big 10g pot. The blackberry I gave the lowered PH water too noticeably responded within a few hours. The clawing has pretty much stopped and it now looks like the healthiest plant in the tent. I’m going to see how it responds over the next few days then try it with my other plants if everything looks good. I’m going to try it with bbb #5 in the 1.7g pot and see if it responds in the same way. I ran a gallon of 5.8 water through 1.7g and got less than a 100ml of runoff which is a little surprising. The runoff measured 1750ppms which seems a little on the high side but isn’t insane for peat based soil. (Day 59) Wow. The plants responded to that little PH adjustment insanely well. #5 isn’t dropping at all and the leaf wrinkles are actually flattening out. It’s starting to look like one of the healthiest plants in the tent. I’m still hoping for #5 to show female. 5 plants would cut my veg time down and give me another opportunity for a keeper pheno. All 4 plants are looking like they’ve already recovered from their transplant. #1 in particular was drooping like crazy yesterday and today it’s bounced back and looking happier than ever. I’m seeing a bit of tip droop on a few plants but they still seem fine I wonder if because my soil is 50% coco I should try watering on the acidic side, around 6.0-6.2 from now on. I’m almost certain that solved all the issues I was having. (Day 62) Plants are all looking really healthy. They all seem to have outgrown the initial light stress actually but node stacking is still really tight and I hope to raise the light up next week sometime. I’m going to drop the humidity to 60% for the rest of veg. These pots are massive and I’m still a little worried about dry downs but they aren’t showing any signs of overwatering or lack of oxygen. BBB#3 is starting to show some weird discoloring like an mag or nitrogen deficiency. Which is weird because it’s freshly transplanted into nitrogen rich soil. Guess I will give it a kelp foliar spray. I’ve been looking for a good organic source of K without an absurd amount of magnesium and sulfur like langbeinite has. I found some 0-0-15 kelp/seaweed extract in soluble crystal form. So from time to time I will water that in at half strength or with compost teas to keep my soil K dominant. (Day 63) I’m still waiting on #6 to show sex. I am shocked it hasn’t shown sex yet. Although it was started a week and a half after the others but still. I’m going to be so pissed if it ends up being a male. I’m taking a gamble but I’m confident it will show female when the time comes. bbb#3 got a little more color back from that foliar spray. Hope that doesn’t get worse because it’s my favorite pheno so far. I will give a N boost in the form of compost tea tomorrow afternoon to both of my tents. I’m starting to utilize the scrog net and boy does it make training way easier. This seems to be a much smarter style of growing for yield and quality. I’m getting tired of these pH fluctuations every time I water. I’ve been eyeballing for the most part and I need a consistent formula. I found the perfect mix to stabilize my RO water and stabilize the pH at 6.2. I moistened the top soil of each plant and will watch for any reactions. Water recipe: 60ml bottled water 2000ml RO water 3ml calmag 2ml microbes

She looking good very resistant dogs damage her while playing guess they wanna be farmers too😂🤣...did more good than bad tho👍.....gonna introduce more bloom food up coming week...roots should have full out or at least close to full out the extra space I gave them last week

Fire bud in 11 weeks looking forward to testing this by next week be Curing out in the vault in the end :) simple living soil brand Black Swallow KIS Living soil and their bloom top feed plus Dynomyco mycorrhizae 🔥 Thank you again Fast Buds for Sponsoring this journal experiment. Indoor organic farming keep it simple and get back what you put in thank you :)

Die Woche war sehr ereignisreich... Von Trainingsunfällen bis hin zum ersten Schnee, war alles dabei. Der CalMg Zuschuss sah auf den ersten Metern vielleicht gut aus, aber da die LCC sich im Eskalationsmodus befindet, konnte ich nicht so schnell gegensteuern wie erhofft. Von letzter Woche bis heute, haben sich noch mehr Stellen mit CalMg Mangelerscheinungen gezeigt, über die gesamte Pflanze. Da läuft es bei den anderen beiden viel, viel besser. Ansonsten ist die gute Dame 105cm groß. Ich hoffe das der größte Stretch bei ihr durch ist. Nach oben ist nicht mehr viel Platz. Mittlerweile ist am Top der erste Schnee wahrzunehmen, hauch fein. Ein leicht matter Duft geht von ihr aus. Erinnert mich an die Keks-Noten... Die PH hängt gefühlt den anderen beiden eine Woche hinterher. Sie ist mit ca. 25cm gerade am Stretchen. Ich hoffe das sie sich noch kräftiger streckt. Dafür das sie so klein ist, hat sie ein sehr breiten, relativ ebenen (bis auf wenige Triebe) Wuchs. Steht saftig im Grün und wird sicher eine Schönheit. Das sie eine Woche hinter den anderen liegt, kommt mir zu Gute. Wenn die anderen beiden "fertig" sind, wird die PH sich auf der höhe der Milchstraße befinden und ganz wenig Bernstein haben. Wird sie der Daytime liebling? Die BPP... Es tut mir so unendlich Leid, dir 2 Trainingsverletzungen, 2 mal abknicken des Triebs, zugefügt zu haben! Mit nem Pflaster um die 2 Triebe, hat sie trotzdem tapfer weiter gemacht. Sie steht auch kräftig im Grün und ist fleißig am Stretchen. Wie gesagt auch die abgeknickten Triebe Stretchen mit und bilden Blüten. Weiter hat die BPP deutliche lila Färbungen der Calyxen, ebenso des Top. Ich bin gespannt. Sie hebt sich von den 2 BPP die ich letztes Jahr hatte, deutlich ab. Auch von der Höhe , mit aktuell 55cm. Was aber geblieben ist, dieser süße, keksartige Duft. Du geile Sau! Riechst jetzt schon wie eine der 2 Ladys von letztem Jahr. Mir läuft schon das Wasser im Mund zusammen und weiß jetzt schon, ich brauche BPP RF3 😍 Von der Luftfeuchtigkeit her, trotz Zuluft, musste ich die FlexFeed entfernen. Die Wurzeln der LCC und BPP waren so oder so schon unten am einwachsen. Zack habe ich nur noch 55-60% Luftfeuchtigkeit, von ehemals 70-80%. Dafür gieße ich jetzt wieder von Hand, alle 2 Tage je nach Gefühl und Gewicht. Da ich weiß wie sich volle Töpfe anfühlen, kann ich die Gießmengen gut einschätzen. Lichtleistung ist bei 90% - Düngemengen nicht wirklich gesteigert. Die LCC hat 3L Zuschuss bekommen. Die anderen beiden bekommen nur etwas PK13/14 mehr. So wie etwas erhöhte CalMg Mengen. Ich freue mich auf das Schneegestöber die kommende Woche und wie sich die PH entwickelt. Bis dahin...😘

She's really starting to take off now I've corrected the lights height and strength, you'll see in the next week that I'll start having some pH issues, I'm usually an outdoor grower. This is my first indoor grow so I don't have all the stuff you need yet, I should be getting a pH pen and PPM metre soon.

I think I chopped them too fast. They should be able to bloom for another week. But I don't have a drying room. Therefore, it must be cut and dried together with other strains.

Starting to Low Stress Training and super cropping some secondaries

Girl scout cookies extreme autoflower has been growing well. She got her first lst, and defoliation today. Looking really good so far. Thanks again ILGM. Thank you grow diaries community for the likes, follows, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel. Happy growing everyone 🌱🌱🌱

Hi Gromie's, upped nutrients & turned light up to 75% (360w), wich has helped bring up temps to 22-24°c really good growth. DD#2 ,DD#3, DD#4 are 1 week younger than DD#1, had originally fimmed 2, 3,&4 but changed my mind & decided to top them & mainline them. I have topped DD#1 for a 2nd time & I am following nebula haze's (grow weed easy.com) method of mainlining keeping the first & 3rd node's to give me 4 cola's per side, 8 total. So till next time Gromie's, ☮️👍🤘

10/23: Fed today with One, sweet & sticky, signal, beastie bloomz, silica, and a little Ca/Mg 10/27: Fed today with one, signal, sweet & sticky, silica, beastie bloomz, kangaroots, and humic acid. Lowered the lights to no more than a foot from any cola..most are 7-9" away.

🤩🤩

The plant is doing well overall this week! 💪 To handle a few fungus gnats that started showing up, I introduced nematodes into the soil and placed some yellow sticky traps, seems to be keeping things under control so far. She's growing quite tall now, definitely stretching up nicely, but not really filling out much in width. A true lemony skyscraper in the tent!😂💚

Honestly, last week I switched to watering exclusively with water with the recommended pH level. I defoliated, perhaps even did some kind of partial trimming in vivo. Expect my results, friends, it will be a rich harvest of delicious cones!

She is loaded right now very heavy and potent yielding plant oh yeah thanks 420 fastbuds I will be getting more of your seeds you rock Guys im so happy I boughy fastbuds seeds It was great to see this second seed pop an amazing grapefruit we did fiming and she eneded up with many colas and many flowers plus super frosty and smelly Also turned purple all buds which to us was a surprise and did not expect that Since last grapefruit was different than this Thanks a lot for all your support Imagine if we had a full spectrum light I think we would be growing trees Honestly we have more than we expected COMING from an Indoor thats nearly located in a tropical climate of 30/33 degrees most of the year and with that said raising temps very hot sometimes very humid thats close to the equator So we have to use A/C all times and maintain humidity levels by spraying all walls to keep it around 45/60% while ac is on remember droping temps so we have to make it as comfortable as possible and that its not easy in this side of the world OR either you need a lot of money which I dont have yet to build a super setup and a separate ROOM with all of that temp and great humidity lvls so yeah we do what we can with our budget We live somwhere where things are pretty much fckd up but it is what it is Hey at least we are safe because it is illegal lol so yeah brothers we have hard times And still with all risk we here doing our best Showing all support Showing im greatful TO find a space like this where We all can share like and Comment And help each other grow better everyday Blessings to you all Keep EM buds coming Happy growing

Easy grow and the overall quality is great. I feel like I definitely could yield way more if I did way more training. If included trim and shake, this planted yield 2 ozs which isn’t bad for sharing space with 3 other plants in a 2x2 space. I have a few more seeds of this strain and will be growing them again definitely. I’ll catch yall on the next one ☝️🏾

TRIPLE G by ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS Week #10 Overall Week #9 Veg This week she's is doing good no issues it's hot outside but she's doing good dealing with the heat she's hasn't shown any signs of other stress. Stay Growing!!

Buds growing dense, this week I added 2 uvb-a lamps to help increase resin production. Smell is also great, like sweet lemon tart.
