Greetings to all my friends from all over the world, greetings to you from Russia! Another week has gone and I am updating my diary. The plants show healthy growth, but when I arrived at a secret place, I found that one of the 400 watts burned out, so part of the tent was not lit. This lamp has served me for about seven years, but nothing lasts forever. When I did the defolation, the second 250-watt lamp burned out, but unfortunately it worked for more than a year. It's good that I had replacement lamps. Due to the problem with the lamp, one side of the plants did not develop very well. But despite this, the processes of the plant became of sufficient size so that I took them for cloning. I took ten shoots, placed them in a hormone gel and transferred them to Rootriot, moving the clones into the greenhouse creating a microclimate there.

5/28 I think she's about to go off. 6/2 she's been droopy leafed for a bit. I backed off on nutrients for over a week. I thought it may have been overwatering but at the same time I don't want to kill off the microbe life in my soil right now by letting it get overly dry. I'm more experienced with coco and the dry back is more aggressive and intense and with soil it's a little different and slower but it als9 cant dry back as

5/28/24 oh damn baby, this cultivar is gonna be colorful 6/2 plant is still throwing out pistils but also chunking up quite nicely. I tried to create just mainly top colas. In description she should have a 3-5 nodal colas with disconnected nugs underneath that. But I only ended up with 3 node colas give or take but with maybe 2 more weeks if veg would've given me larger branches and bigger cola structure and can always cut the larfy.

Whelp figured out my PH meter was not reading correctly which means I was not balancing the PH of my water correctly....that being said I had been using RO water that *read* it was testing around 7.0, so I was using PH down to 6.5 5/27 - Decided to top the plant. Again with this being my first grow, this was slightly nerve-racking 5/28 - Seems I didn't mess up the top chop, woooh! I tested the PH of my soil today(5.6), if that even tells me anything(I find 2 articles that say it doesn't and another 2 that say the opposite...so that's magical) and ended up just buying a few gallons of distilled water from the store since I didn't want to be running my RO system for my plant and the others in my house.(made sense in my head at the time) Fed a dose of nutrients in the feeding tonight. I believe I was underwatering my plant. 5/29 Forgot to take a picture because I thought I might have overfed the nutes, on the night before.., So I spent the night researching info and trying to figure out if that was the case and how to correct it. But again since I am new to this, I have no clue lol. It also seems I had bumped up the light power from 50% to 100% some how the night before. Ended up dropping it down to 70% power. 5/30 I took the photo, then tied down the main stem. worries of overfeeding have subsided for now... 6/1 Looking extra bushy today. Holding off on defoliation, unless someone tells me otherwise. I am trying to hold off for a few days on doing anything more that could stress out my plant.

Start of week 6 the end of week 5 she was just having her pistols come out. She is doing great growing fast I might have to buy bigger tent but will see what happens. Daytime temps are74/76 and nighttime temps 68/70 RH is now at 54%. New I have not even flushed or used sledgehammer because she looking so hungry at times. I did major defoliation on her had some many big fan leafs block lower bud sites to be also did a ton of tie down to try to get the last few stretches out the lower area.

Día 01 hoy fue el primer día con 12 hs de obscuridad. A los esquejes les tuve que hacer corte apical, dado que se fueron muy arriba mientras esperabamos al menor. Yo creo que ya ha llegado, así que en estos días deberíamos ver cuanto crece. Voy a ir intenta do mantener más actualizado ahora.

Premise was to see how "optimal" i can get my first ever Grow. After some Research i came up with the idea to build an Aeroponic System myself using Water Buckets and Venturi Injektors to provider proper aeration. Sadly Seedlings had to wait in EazyCubes cause some parts and Nutrients didnt arrive on time. System was fully operationable on Day 16. Atami Nutrients are inside the System since Day 24, Calmag has been added Day 28. Before that, some Tri-part Nutrient. Planning on switching to Plagron in the Long run, as well as adding Co2, a water chiller and a ~700W LED. Stats: - 5 30L Buckets, 4 Plants and 1 Reservoir - Recirculation happens through 90mm PVC pipes - 16000 l/h pump going through 4x 1" Venturi Injektors pulling around 700 liters of Air per hour - 1mx1mx2m Growtent - 250W The Jackson Nemesis LED Happy about any Questions and Suggestions!

Hello. This is the end of veg and the first week of flowering, starting tonight. Man what a cold spring around here. We had a week of over 21* c through the day. But the last couple of weeks have been cold, barely getting over 13* c through the day. I didn't open the tent till noon because it was raining here. So, these plant will be going into flowering tonight. I'll be lowering my bamboo type of net later this week that will hold up the big BlackMoon buds. Got 2 males to work with this year. Panty Punch and Pinoal Kush (my own cross) These males should make some good seeds this year, they are "FREE" if you want to do a diary on them. I use a 3 dollar international stamp and a Christmas card to get them to you, I just want a diary done in return. The plants inside will be put into flowering a week after the ones in the greenhouse. I know it will take me a week to harvest the ones in the greenhouse. The plants in the greenhouse all got a big drink of rainwater last night and all had their first overflow into the reservoir. I'll be mixing up some flowering nutrient for the next watering. Well, that is the end of the FFFB comic book. Hope you enjoyed it. He's one of my favorite artist. I'll find something else weird to show you next week and for the rest of the diary. Ok. Be Great. Chuck.
