Sep 12: Purple Ghost Candy is still going strong. Another few weeks I would think, ideally. Other plants are getting bud rot so I’m doing going to call it a season soon. This is the ninth week of flowering so she’ll be ready soon. Final Flush uses citric acid to chelate nutrients and salts away from the plant roots. I started doing a chemical flush last year and it’s better - no risk of over-fertilized buds that don’t burn. After flushing (I used 9 L to flush about 27 L of soil) they say 7-10 days before harvest so this timing sounds good. Sep 13: did another 18 L flush as I figured 9 L yesterday wasn’t enough. Defoliated to expose ripening buds to more sunlight. Sep 16: looking really nice.

- Total days above ground: 35 Lazy update this week. Procrastination mode is on. No individual plant photos this week. I don't even have a plant map, So, I'm not sure what each plant is by location at this moment. I need to do some canopy management tonight, but fuck it. I'll put it off until tomorrow because I like to self-sabotage. They'll get a little less time to recover than normal heading into flower. They are healthy and happy, so I doubt there will be any repercussions. Second humidifier is still tied up in the drying area, so VPD continues to be less-than-ideal. By the time I flip to flower, the climate will be in a much better place. I'll have to cut some corners and get a little creative to mitigate the effects of a suboptimal vege phase. Things will turn out fine, but inevitably fall a bit short of expectations. I'll selectively prune lower axilla and top tomorrow but leave a couple opportunities for cuttings. Hopefully, there's enough growth for a proper clone by flip to flower (day 40). A second breeding cycle may or may not happen.

Day 73 ~ Plant 1 is looking great and hopefully will be ready to harvest by the end of the week. Been checking the trichomes and while most are getting milky white, there are still a couple sites on the plant where I find clear trichomes. Plant 2 seems to be about a week or two behind the first plant...I will give plant 2 their final Nutes tmrw and then begin to flush. From reading about this strain it seems like it should take around 90 days from seed to harvest. So I would think plant 1 is running a little ahead of schedule and plant 2 is right on time. Day 75 ~ Both plants looking and smelling amazing! I was hoping to be harvesting the first plant by this weekend, but she is still growing and her trichomes are still not all milky and I haven't yet to find an amber one. So it might be another week or so before I can start drying her out.

Not sure if these 2 are auto plants? The blackberry are flowering quiet obviously, but these 2 are either really slow or I accidentally bought non autos. Anybody help? Cheers

Beautiful strain to grow I'll say it 1 thousand times. Super sweet and floral aroma, very frosty and dense hard flowers, the exact same smell that her sisters have, I love to grow black cherry punch and hope I can keep doing so. This lady is one of the 2 purple phenos I have. The other 3 phenos are green but have the exact same smell all of them. Very recomended to all the growers out there if you are looking for exotic smells, very sweet. Peace out 💚✌️

Week 1 Day 1 - 8/12/2023 1st Water change Day! Such a special time it is when you remove the little bit of Nutes that you gave them as an appetizer and you give them their first real meal. Added 39 Gallons of Water to my system SILICA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Root Drip = 1mil/Gal = 39mil Cal Mag= .25mil/Gal = 9.75 = 10mil FLoraMicro= 3.0mil/Gal = 114mil FloraGro = 2.0mil/Gal = 78mil FloraBloom = 2.0mil/Gal =78mil ORCA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Week 1 Day 2 - 8/13/2023 Everything is looking good the roots are making thier way to the water and the new grow is looking nice and green. Week 1 Day 3- 8/14/2023 Everything is right on track, they are looking beautiful and in the praying postition all leaves happily lifting towards the light. Week 1 Day 4- 8/15/2023 Looking beautiful today and looked like she could use her first haircut.. gave her a TOP off. Roots are laying in the water everything is looking right on track.. Week 1 Day 5- 8/16/2023 walked in and the humidity was under 60.... ohh noooooo.. So I added 2 humidifiers to the tent and attached them to my InkBird controller which is set to 62. She had roots nicely in the water.. this grow is on!!! Week 1 Day 6- 8/17/2023 Humidity was a little low this morning, so I refilled the humidifiers. Other than that, the temp looks great, the PH looks great, the PPM looks good the plant is in the praying position and all damage from the little drowning seems to have been fixed. Happy Happy. Week 1 Day 7- 8/18/2023 Yay.. week 1 in the books, roots in the water growth has started first hair cut given and both side nodes are growing. Everything is looking good and on track.. A lot better than week one of the last grow when I had them drowning week 1. Really excited on how this grow is going to come out.

Day15 - Day17: I had some difficulties to get the humidity right. It was either too high or fluctuating too much. I ended up getting a timer for the plug and running the humidifier 15mins every hour. To help with air flow, I have the main duct fan running 4 times a day for an hour. To ensure that there's airflow around the plant, I have a fan in the light as well as a smaller clip-on fan that runs during light hours. I'm not sure how the camera moved on day17... I only watered it mid-day. Day18: The timer on the humidifier and Duct Fan is now keeping the humidity in a good space. VPD now under control Day19: The Vivosun controller perfectly adapted the lighting schedule to an hour earlier, to ensure 6hrs of darkness. UInfortunately the RPi kept it's 04:00 schedule (makes sense). So I captured an hour of darkness. Adapted everything. Will have 18hrs again from Day20 onwards. Day20: In the next days I'll lift the camera higher for a better view of what's happening up top. My mesh-netting-dingsbums will arrive and I'll use this as a platform for the pi+camera. Day21: I'm not sure if I like this angle. I'll only keep it like this until she goes into veg-mode. It at least shows the new nodes growing from different perspective

War wirklich positiv überrascht von den Jamaican Pearls. Sehr intensiver Geschmack. Jedoch haben wir die Ernte nicht wirklich gewogen (oben genannte Angaben sind geschätzt) da unglückliche Umstände. Dies wird beim 2ten Grow verbessert...versprochen

This is the start of flowering! I started 5 days ago so we should see some bud formation really soon done some heavy training on GG#1 . Waiting on GG#2 to shoot out abit more then i will start the sliding stake technique on her as well . Waiting on the more serious formation of flowers before i give a good PK spike .

Day 78 - I swear the Orchid is getting skunkier by the day. First thing I smell when opening the tent. Added some pics with a selfie seeds sticker to show the size None of the strains here are Selfie Seeds, sticker was used for showing the bud size. Day 81 - I'm so ready to smoke these plants. The Apple Banana Zoap smells just like the flower I ordered from LIT and it's sticky as hell so I know they're going to be fire even though they hermed. I removed a couple more nanners found lower on the branches that I couldn't see for ABZ#2, NO MORE found on ABZ#1 as of now... Checked PPFD again today: ABZ #1 - 810 PPFD | ABZ #2 - 875 PPFD | Biscotti - 750 PPFD | Black Orchid - 1040 PPFD Day 82 - Used the jewelers loupe and camera to compare for trichome quality against the microscope Day 83 - Noticing reduction in feeding consumption all around. ABZ 1: 0.9L | ABZ 2: 1.5L | Biscotti: 1L | Black Orchid: 2.0L Biscotti is giving a vanilla and lemon terp profile with the pine spice in the background now. It's nice tbh Day 84 - This is the last day of week 7 since flip, week 8 starts Tomorrow. I'll be dialing back my light a bit and the ppm. Pulled the ppm back a bit tonight as I've still seen issues with the nitrogen. Feed tonight was 926PPM. Might have a new nutrient mix to use on them Wednesday.... I can't get better pics with the microscope sorry, I'm too unsteady for that. (Maybe cause I turned the LED down on the microscope)

I've moved her outside to give my royal gorilla more room plus it needed to start flowing and this one didnt. It is out there along with my white widow(which is actually out at my cabin different environments) I think I might pull it back inside if the temperature outside drops but I'll try and keep it out till I harrvest my royal gorilla...

Week thirteen for Francos Fullgas! Day 39 of 12/12. She's just doing her thing and despite some watching and watering there wasn't much to do this week :) Unfortunately she is a bit overfed, but can't manage to get every plant different nutrients so she has to take what she gets. Really love this phase of a plants life, when all the work is showing in a steady progress and the most needed thing is patience.

DISCLAIMER START EC Value on weekly page is the actual value, my EC meter was not calibrated and gave extremely false values, that's why it went so bad, corrected it on the weekly page when I noticed it, the EC value in the comment is wrong, the rest is correct. DISCLAIMER END The plant keeps growing super slow and doesn't like "high" EC, after the Increase in EC last week it got stunted and a couple days later started to show tip burn. Really really frustrated and if this one was in my usual setup I would have tossed it out of the window. New growth after topping is also growing EXTREMELY slow. Did some defoliation to get light to lower nodes but ya whatever the plant doesn't care and doesn't want to grow. Unsure if it is due to this pheno, the new setup, the new light or whatever, to many variables to definitely say. I see this grow as a big experiment from now on and don't expect anything anymore. Added some Universol Yellow (high P) after lowering EC due to tip burn. Changed the light to my old one the SP3000 to see if the higher amount of far red is helping it to stretch. Plant started to flower properly mid week so I'll start to mark it as flowering starting next week. On one leaf there is a bud starting to form. Values are average of the day.
