So I definitely fucked up this week and missed some crucial water times. I passively knew in the back of my mind to but I was just having busy and stressful days.

8/10: Seeing great growth now..lots of branching. I actually fed them yesterday, but didn't update...several have popped some pistils and pretty much the rest are about to, and I'm out of bat guano, so I went ahead and gave them Open Sesame so they'd have more P available over the next several days. 8/11: I rearranged the garden a little. Moved all four #10's to the right side, the #4's are mostly in the middle...very branchy..the others, mostly to the left are the #2's and maybe a #3. The big plant on the lower left is an auto, as is the runt, and the plant at lower right. The "fern-looking" plant is actually a Jacaranda Tree (blue fern tree)...it's about to get kicked out... 8/12: I did a little training on some of the bushier #4's today. I don't have much space to work with, but I was able to do a little to encourage a race for apex dominance. There were enough pistils on them that I decided to switch the week to "Flowering." 8/13: I fed them today with ONE and added Open Sesame, Silica, Signal, and Sweet & Sticky. I sprayed them all with Axiom (Harpin proteins) and Boom Boom Spray right at dark. 8/14: BAM! They are poppin pistils left and right now...lotsa lovely little cotton tops.๐Ÿ‘ 8/15: Day 15 since the flip to 12/12..good progress. The #2's and #10's are stacking up and stretching pretty well and the #4's just keep bushing up.

I forgot to turn on the ventilation fan. But, fortunately, my children did not die.

Hello growmies Buds start fatten up and we like it ๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿ˜Ž This week the buds have started gaining weight. I think it's exactly the right time because I still have a few weeks to go. From this point on I try to keep the PK content at the same level for the next 2 weeks, then I will increase the fertilizer dose a bit and fertilize like this for another 2 weeks until flowering week 8. What I noticed with my plants up to now is that they are very sensitive to light and that over 1000 ppfd is not possible without an additional co2 supply. Otherwise I have only good things to say, they smell delicious, they have a very good defense against pests and mold. Sometimes the humidity was over 70 at night. I am very excited about the result, the effect and the taste ๐Ÿ™‚ I will post a video tomorrow I wish my Growers Family and Sponsors a pleasant weekend without stress and hectic. Stay healthy ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ€

No point forcing it. Looks like Iโ€™ll finish with 14โ€“16 solid tops, depending on how she settles. Iโ€™m just trying to give each one enough light and space to stack properly.

What a week for this girl! After seeing both of my Sweet Seed autos take a hit from my lack of watering with runoff, I decided to take preventative matters with this Gelato plant and flushed her clean with 8 gallons of plain pHed water, and then a final gallon of a light feeding mix. Since doing that 4 days ago, definitely have seen some further discolouration, but as far as I can tell, It's stopped spreading to the new growth, so I'm 'hoping' to be in the clear but you really never know. I got the soil pH up from 5.4 to 6.5, and the ppm down from 1100ish to just under 400 (which is typical ppm for a flushed plant). Going to keep a close eye, but damn do I feel like she went through some serious shock. Bud development has pretty much slowed down, so hoping she bounces back and start stacking, but I also don't know if this is from the shock of the flush, or the low temps I've been faced with this week. Anyway, definitely learned my lesson on this run! Organic growing here I come ๐Ÿ˜

This plant is really getting big. I had to do a lot of topping and defoliation this week. I wasnโ€™t planning on any more topping but she is getting too tall and I wonโ€™t be able to pull poly over her when she is in flower if she keep stretching upwards. Humboldt doesnโ€™t lie when they tell you the size their plants can reach!! ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿป๐ŸŒฑ

This week I had to Lollipop again (I know is very late and I hope I didnโ€™t stressed the plant to much). My canopy is so tick and so many overlapping leaves and buds in the center of the plant that donโ€™t receive enough light or any at all , n combination with the RH swings that I got going on (45 and 63 RH), Iโ€™m very afraid of mold. I should have did a better job at Lollipoping from day 21. Iโ€™m inexperienced grower and I didnโ€™t knew better. I decided is better to risk to shock the plant a little bit risking a reduction in yield then get mold or pests and lose it all. My 30 pin dehumidifier works great with the AC but sometimes when the AC( compressor) stops my RH jump at 62% -63%, witch I donโ€™t like . Iโ€™m trying to keep the humidity around 50% but in such a small room between the AC and Dehumidifier I got big swings in temp ( 75-82) and RH ( 45%-63%) witch is not ideal but is nothing that I can do. I played with the AC and Dehumidifier setting a lot trying to keep humidity around 50% and temp around 80 degrees and thatโ€™s the best I can. My AC is set at 82 degrees and my Dehumidifier is set at 45% RH. Also during the lights off (day time) is very hard to keep the temperature In control when outside is 110-115 degrees with my portable AC (1400BTU) in the 4x 6 closet. Is crazy but I do my best to keep temp under control. This is another rocky mistake I made is trying growing weed DWC in the middle of summer where temps are 105-115 degrees constant in a closet without centralized AC port and at second level in the building. LOL Also I think I underfed her (630 PPM TDS, PH 5.8-5.9) ) and I got a Ca deficiency witch I think is the reason my flowers developed slower then I anticipated. Hopefully Iโ€™m wrong and everything will be good. P.S. I got a little bit of calcium deficiency caused by salt buildup (to much PK boost) despite my earlier belief that is underfed. I increased the PPM from week 4 (630-640TDS) to 680 TDS) on week 5 while I kept the PK booster at 3+ml l per gallon. Slightly my PPMโ€™s was rising in my reservoir for few days until I decided that my plant canโ€™t take that much nutrients (PK). 2-3 days after I increased the TDS Iโ€™ve noticed more spots on the lower leaves with tip burns on top ( first signs of PK toxicity). One day later found spots and yellowing of the leaves on top of the plant that indicates Ca deficiency caused by salt buildup ( PK toxicity) and reversed osmosis (hope Iโ€™m not wrong). Going into week 6 I lowered the PK boost at 1.5ml / gallon and total TDS to 640 PPM. Seems like leaves damage to stop and my PPM to stay stabile at 630-640. Trying to keep PH at 5.8 max 5.9. I will post pictures of my Ca deficiency/ PK toxicity. If you guys have any suggestions please leave me a comment.

im not training these at all im strictly watching them grow and studying how they are naturally. messing with the lights a little, and got some light burn on both plants cause the lights were wayy to close. but all that being said im recalibrated with the lights, added in the blurple light just because i wanted more specrtum. growth has been explosive. i incorporated fish shit into every feeding and watering this week and i love it so far.

Yet again another amazing run from the blue cheese. Barneys really got it right with this strain. Dense, frosty, smelly, Big heads literally everything i look for in a strain. Not too mention the high is the best! I love a good cheese smoke and harvesting this strain just as the trichomes fill with milky cloudy colours I fell gives the best high. Energetic and uplifting and just all around amazing! 10/10 would recommend!

I think the star of our diary will be the Pineapple Express, she took the toping like nothing happened and already looking great and she already has a week smell, The other girls are doing great, and the white runtz have some mesmerising colour to her leaves the kind from a shroom trip

11/8 start of week 10, continuing to not use nutrients, started flushing this week, looking to harvest next week, she smells amazing like mint almost, very unique smell, getting frostyyyy, usually having to water 3-4 times a week 11/15 still lots of popcorn buds on the bottom branches as pictured, I messed up the mainline and should have stretched her out more but live and learn!
