*ADVISE NEEDED* The day before yesterday I discovered a huge error in my system. I placed filter material in the feed-throughs of the breeding boxes. This is to prevent the roots from growing together over time. However, what I caused with that is very difficult to explain. The bottom line is that the distribution of food and circulation was actually not good at all. This also explained the differences in the water temperature, but also PH and EC values. That is now completely under control because it now runs stably for 2 days. However, you can see that the records have had a bad start. I am thinking about starting over. Week 3. Week 2 was looking for the correct settings for my system. I found out that the temperature in the bins is quite different. When I set the water chiller to 19 degrees, it all flows fine into the first container. There it rises about 0.5 degrees per bin. The margin of the chiller is about 1 degrees, causing too many fluctuations in the system, with tray 1 becoming too cold and the last one too cold. I solved this by shielding the box at the inlet of the tent with heat-protective foil. I also put a fan on the water chiller. If that catches on, the entire loft heats up, whith more fluctiations. However, I have enough space to measure very precisely and I am getting more and more control. I think the brown leaves were the cause of much too hot water. Since I have the water temperature under control, I see that the new leaves are growing nicely. Moreover, since yesterday (13-5) I received the nutrition. 10 days late. I just finish the root scheme I think. That is still 3 days a 70 mm per day combined with BioBizz Heaven. I tried to take some pictures of the roots and some close ups. I hold the lid with my left hand and with my right hand I try to take a picture zoomed in (max). While the wind makes the roots dance past my lens😵 Something different than usual ... Hope you like it. If you see something that needs to be addressed, let us know. It is my first breeding so there will undoubtedly go wrong. This week I also connected the water reservoir with which I can flush the entire system at once. With this I also control the Ph in the system. Will post photos soon.

Footage dates: Sept 2, 10, 11, 15 Strains: Opium • Cali Crasher • Sour Puffs • DC Kush Stage: Late Flower / Ripening Complete Next post: Harvest update (separate) 🌸 Flowers at Peak: By early September, all plants reached full maturity. Buds are fat, tight, fully stacked. Trichomes are now mostly cloudy with 5–15% amber, especially on Sour Puffs and DC Kush. Opium shows the longest ripening window — still pushing white pistils into Week 18. 💎 Trichomes: Shimmering in the sun, thick coverage. Some foxtailing visible on the sunniest tops (natural, not stress-induced). Aroma is intense — gassy, fruity, and spicy notes depending on strain. 🍃 Fading & Finish: Leaves are fading beautifully. Controlled senescence — yellow tones from the bottom, with some red/purple hints on DC Kush. No signs of overfeed or flush-burn. 📽️ Videos show: Colas bending under their own weight Excellent density and frost level Clean, pest-free buds — no visible mold or rot despite intense heat Feeding: No additional inputs during this phase. Plants running on stored nutrients — fade is clean. Some light waterings only, no further amendments after BioBloom. 🌞 Weather (Malta): Dry September sun with high UV — perfect final ripening window Cooler nights help bring out color and terpene lock-in

Gave it some water yesterday with some herculean harvest, clean fruits, terpinator and grozyme and kinda flushed it out just to try and prevent build up. It's starting to fatten up a little bit now. All the purples are Putang crosses or mandarin cookies R1V2 #2.

9/26 This fucking sucks. Site won't let me upload pictures. Flood warning in effect. I believe this is the fifth day of rain. Not trickles. Sheet rain and high winds. My dream catchers have been taking this like a champ. Ice cream cake was totally sideways for awhile despite vertical trellis. I came down this morning to branches bent at 90° angles. I could've taken them but if I make it through this rain today it's supposed to stop tonight. Then I'll have a week of good weather. Buds are exploding. Even the ice cream cake. That will need more time but I'm getting close with the others. They are never out of sight. I'm surprised they've held up so well so far. I made my decision it would be stupid to alter it now, seeing how the storm is ending. I was going to spray k bicarb but I'll wait until after this rain.UPDATE: Went back over and the garden was flooded. I needed to put one grow bag on top of another as one plant was in six inches of water. I drained it and added supports and pulled off any dead leaves. I tried taking a video but it was raining so hard it stopped after 7 secs. Luckily my dreamcatchers are strong AF. Took to little ones and put them under the barn under a light. It's FINALLY stopped raining. After I smoke I gotta go back over and shake buds again and check for rot. Luckily nothing was broken but it was hanging right down. Fucking sucks. Spent like two hours in sheet rain. UPDATE: Stopped raining. I went over and continued to defoliate and cut little bits of rot from the interior. Sprayed a gallon of potassium bicarbonate and dawn on ever spot of rot I could find. I've been to the patch multiple times today. Found a few earwigs. I think I've found my problem. Late stage leaf septoria with earwigs eating the rotting plant matter. Fucking sucks but at least I have an idea. Can't upload pics and phone wouldn't even work in the rain. One 7 second video. 9/27 The extra work I've been putting in has certainly helped. I got in touch with a company who will do any type of extraction I want for $200 a lb. Fucking awesome. My cousin got 250 grams love rosin last year with this same company. I am sore. I checked trichs but I'm not seeing much Amber yet. Buds are gaining density fast. At least now that I have an idea what my problem is I can address it. Plants showed signs of pm after drying out. I did a k bicarb spray and this morning there isn't a spot. I need to take care of what's hanging so that's the plan today. 9/28 I think I made the right decision.my plants are looking good. Not where I want them but it's getting close. I checked the trichs this morning. Under 24 hour surveillance till harvest. Well it has been but now I stay up every nigh watching the cctv. Went down in the middle of the night to check for nocturnal bugs. Didn't find any. I've been defoliating the yellow septoria leaves. I went through every plant and cut out any rot and removed andy sugar leaves that started to turn brown. This and the k bicarb seem to help. I think that Leaf septoria has dwarfed the growth of the smaller dream catcher. Buds don't seem to be growing much more. Even my ICC has buds almost the size of the little one. The other dreamcatcher will probably be an elbow plant. The ice cream cake has beefed up incredibly and is covered in trich's. I'm super excited but I'm cautious at the same time. I hate that fucking dog but it's an added layer of security. Soon I'll do the harvest report for DJ short blueberry. 9/29 Trich's are changing fast. Haven't been watering lately do to all the rain. Plants are real real close. Up all night watching. Dog flipped out at 4am but no one was there. I want to wait until I have a little more Amber but I'm super excited. I may end up taking some tops. May end up doing a k bicarb spray today. Haven't decided yet. I'll update as I go. I've been making head way trimming the blueberry. 9/30. Things are looking beautiful. The smell at the garden is amazing. Lots of hard work left. Plants do have septoria and slight pm so I may do a bud wash. I cut a branch from each plant. I think I'm at the point of diminishing returns. Every wet night mold and critters take more and the chances of some idiot coming to try and take my shit increases. I may end up harvesting a little earlier. I'd lie to wait but the trichs look pretty good to me. Still doing all the maintenance required. I am extremely proud of this grow. I fought everything this year. Started with mites and thrips. Powder mildew came with them too. Now I've faced every pest or disease this year. At least it seems that way. I've seen the horror stories on my local Facebook thread. Leave your comments and let me know what you think about trichome stages and whether it would be ok to harvest. 10/1 Rained last night. Defoliated and removed some rot. I'll update later in the day. 10/2 Rained last night and I have A LOT to update which I will later.

Day 92. Girls are runing to the end, foxtailing on one of Tangies is crazy, but bud is dence and i let her to go. Now StrawberryCough have loads space, she loved nutes, leaves are a bit too dark for me, but she is flowering and its fun ! Made on her Fims , tried to understand how deep you need to cut, so she will have some strange grow 4sure. Day 94. Early Tangie became TheRealFoxtailQueen ;)) thats it, i dont want to smoke tails, so she was choped aswell, sad , was hoping she will be my biggest girl from first 8... Was puting ice as a test on Early bigger FastDiesel, so part of roots stayed wet, its easy to spot, that those cones in airpots really works great. Day 95. Eve. Maybe Fatty could hang for 12 hours more, but i am leaving house for a bit and dont want them to overdry. Thats why tops are in seperate jar, not because it looks better ;) inside bigger tops, even when i trim them hard ( i could leave longer colas) still stemp is fat and keeps more mosture, that way its easier to cure them, humidity is more even trough each jar. So now to the main point .... Weight ..... And the winner is ...... ;))) 69.65 !!!! Never hoped that much from her, my eye scales are way off ;)) i think thats the winner, only late FastDiesel or StrawberryCough can beat. Bud dried 1-2 days too early for perfectness, but heating is on and its really dry weather in the house and dehumidifier triggers electrics ;)) i am flat out on max usage now ;) I am in a choping spree ;) Slimmer Fat Tangie falls aswell, she smells crazy, dont know is it smart to dry like i do now, neighbours should smell it 4sure ;)) Smells is fruity from distance and citrus from close up ... Tangie in the best by smell and not so sad by quantity ;)) All girls running well, really happy and that makes me happy. The purpose of Theraphy Room - works !!!! Day 96. Every day new champ ? ;)) Early Big FastDiesel very sticky, not rock hard, but hard buds in total of 73.61 !!! That strain i have in marks for summer, its a killer ;) if you smoke it, all neibourghood knows about it, maybe even all small town ;))) Smaller Early FastDiesel is choped today,she easy could make two more weeks and gane weight, but her choped sister is too strong, cant have couch lock weed all day ...

what do they say about different strains on the same RES, in the same pot??? welp, here goes nothing... Last time I saw this waterfarm I was still a teenager. Ran it in a closet with two 4ft flouro shop lights either side going vertically upward like the letter "A". Had two BIG ASS plants roughly 4ft tall in it side by side going STRONG! Healthy asf, huge ass healthy leaves, some 13 fingered. Flipped em and turned out BOTH were male... Been toying with the idea of doing it again... So what the hell... Here goes, 2 Girls 1 Cup or "pot"... One Herbies Godzilla Cookies Auto and one Fastbuds Wedding Glue Auto. Current setup: -36x36x60 tent -"1000w" led light (130w from the wall) -4in extraction fan/scrubber -20+ yr old GHE Waterfarm fitted with ice probe w/ controller and PLENTY of insulation around RES. -Multiple circulation fans -Taotronics humidifier Stay tuned to watch me fuck this up too 🤣 *Sow'd em both in organic peat pellets after a 24hr soak. Getting them acclimated to their new home early. Doing environment tests and dialing it in with the new to me ice probe, and the change to hydro versus soil plants that were in there. Will be more moisture in the air until a canopy covers my balls with the evaporation from the light. **lookey lookey, BOTH have come to life and are making way to the surface. Not long and they'll be in their new "cup". Last update on germination week as once they pop we start counting I suppose.

This week things seem to be progressing normally. Although not knowing what to expect, I can't say for sure, but no mishaps so far. I think they have stopped stretching, and are starting to get bigger buds, but that may be wishful thinking. Watching the time lapse I am noticing that during certain parts of the day, the leaves are drooping still. At first I manually turned on the pump for their nutrients when I saw the leaves starting to sag, which was generally when I got up in the morning, but then watching the video, I decided to start doing it earlier. After watching last weeks video, I decided to set the pump to go on even earlier, and now I think I might do earlier still, or even perhaps set it to run twice a day. Time will tell... literally.. 😃 As you can see, I dropped the amount of Medi One this week, and upped the Bloom formulation with no big change in the results that I can see, but they do look healthy with green leaves and no unusual tips.

Week 3 of Flower we focus on Defoilation. This really is going to test the genetics response to extreme stress. Performed a 5 day Schwazze to minimize stress instead of ripping off most leave in one day. Plant seem to have reacted well so far. This technique has really opened the canopy and expose many bud sites. Preparing for a top feed at start of new week.

Diese Woche war ein Berg ab und Berg auf! Nachdem die Ladies nach dem entlauben ohne Befeuchter stellenweise auf eine RLF von unter 30 % gefallen sind habe ich den Befeuchter wieder im Zelt installiert! Nun sind es in Tag und Nachtphase 40-45 % also perfekt. Am Tag 41 die Leistung der HID Lampe auf 600 Watt erhöht. In dieser Woche die Pflanzen mit einem pH von 5,8 und ec von 1,1 gespült. Die Temperatur ist konstant gut. Die Pflanzen wurden ebenfalls zum denke ich letzten Mal stark entlaubt um Licht an die Buds zu lassen. Von der Größe der buds stehen sie der x haze etwas nach,, Ich bin aber zufrieden. Es fängt an gut zu riechen 😁 bis nächste Woche ✌️🏾

I'm really impressed so far 👏. It is almost 19 inches tall now and I'm thinking shes got another foot to go lol. Will keep everyone posted and thanks to everyone that checks out and likes my grows please comment with your input as I always like constructive criticism.

Looks like most of the stretch has stopped for both plants. There appear to be two slightly different phenos with one slightly taller than the other. The shorter one seems slightly further along with a bit more flower development and some frost starting to show. I've done a couple rounds of defoliation to get some better air flow and light to bud sites. I also went through and pinched off most of the lower bud sites that were not going to get sufficient light to develop.

March 27, 2019: For the most part everything is moving along nicely. The CBD Medi Kush has taken off in the flower room. She is 30 inches tall now and showing lots of nice bud site development. So far I have to say I'm impressed with how things are going in the flower room. The organic methods appear to be working very well. The plants all look super healthy, no signs of any deficiencies and the leaves are all the perfect shade of green - not too dark and not too light.
