Day 7 i I transplanted the seedlings in jiffy’s to the DWC basket water level was “just” touching the bottom of the basket which meant there was 1mm- 2mm air gap between the water level and the jiffy’s. The high pressured air in the water to spit when air was released at the top which kept the bottom of the jiffy moist which had minimal roots showing to the exterior of it. Day 7-13 I originally had 7.5 litres of water that was to the bottom of the basket. I replaced the water on the 13th which meant the water was changed after 6 days at such an early stage I will regularly change the water in the buckets. You can change every 7-14days but I am taking no chances. I refilled and added nutrients on Day 13 which was yesterday. And the plants are doing really well and are a nice VEG green colour. Hard to tell on the pictures with the light colour but you can see their progress. When I replaced the water this week I put 6.5L of water in each bucket With nutrients PH’d as close to 5.8 as possible. Some varied from 5.72 - 5.9. I have noted these on each bucket so that I can check if one does better than the others or shows deformities or stress I can amend it to match the others but hopefully not in such a close proximity of 5.8ph with an EC of 700+- The roots are now showing in every pot with the longest being some 6inches. The new Wakyme grow light is top notch so far with VEG button on only. Anyone contemplating buying one it cost me £99.00 from amazon and so far is performing just how I would like. Humidity has been taken care of with a cold air intake fan which is pulled from another area of the building of a cooler environment. Temperatures are spot on where I want them but I do allow a 2degree +- allowance but it does change back to its original temperature quickly enough. 5 more speed bud germinated and 2peyote critical feminised photoperiod germinated. Crystal candy XL auto ordered x10 Gorilla glue, Pineapple Express and Cali Kush waiting in the wings. I have these already If I can be anymore help to anyone let me know. Your diaries are helping me and hopefully I can provide the same to you

Bellissime,abbondanti e cariche di infiorescenze resinose e profumate! Dimensioni grandi e qualità altissima! È stata una settimana bella e calda e ormai siamo in estate quindi continuano a riempirsi di infiorescenze molto resinose e dure. Ogni varietà è una vera soddisfazione! Grazie a tutte le banche dei semi che hanno creato queste varietà magnifiche! Per alcune manca poco alla raccolta mentre altre ci vuole più di una settimana di attesa anche due settimane. Sono felice, bravissimi tutti.

Week 19 of Vegetative Growth (Transition Week – Pre-Flower Move)** This week marks an important milestone for the Pineapple Upside Down Cake: she was finally moved into the tent where she’ll spend her entire flowering phase. She’s not flipping yet — this stage is all about controlled acclimation before the real show begins. Up until now, she was growing under a 5000K blue-leaning veg light at low wattage, which kept her compact and focused on structural development. Inside the flowering tent, the lighting is completely different: a full-spectrum 3500K panel, warmer, broader, and naturally more stimulating. A spectrum switch like this can easily stress a plant, especially in late veg, so the intensity was intentionally reduced to 300 PPFD to give her a soft landing. Temperature conditions also shifted: about 21°C during the day and 17°C at night, with the light set to 25% power. It’s a cool, stable environment — ideal for a plant adjusting to a brighter and wider spectrum. The second key topic of the week was training strategy. Her growth was accelerating fast, and the debate was wide open: Should she be topped? Should we go for a scrog? Should we prune more aggressively? In the end, the most coherent choice was a clean LST session. Her main branches — roughly ten apexes — were gently bent and opened to create a wider, flatter canopy. This approach keeps stress minimal while giving her a solid architecture to handle the upcoming stretch. Over the next few days, she’ll naturally stand back up, and once she does, her true structure will become clearer. At that moment, we’ll be able to judge whether she needs extra shaping: a light defoliation, selective pruning, or even a late top if it really makes sense. For now, the plan is simple and strategic: • monitor her adaptation to the new spectrum, • watch how she reacts to the LST, • keep the environment stable, • and only move to flowering once she shows full vigor again. Summary for Week 19 (Vegetative Growth): – Successful transition into the flowering tent – Spectrum shift managed smoothly with 300 PPFD – Cooler environment helping with acclimation – Clean LST performed on about ten apexes – No visible stress, good potential for a controlled stretch – Next step: wait for full adaptation before flipping See you next week for the follow-up — the pre-flower phase is getting close.

I hit it with a top dress last week after i posted: Top Dress: Earth dust 2-3-6 boost 2 cup per plant Down to earth 4-8-4 1 cup per plant 20g w-20 wollastonite 20g epsom salts 4 cups black kow manure compost Then i watered with molasses water. Day 21 is today and resin almost doubled overnight on the acapulco gold. Its getting white out on the leaves and looks so beautiful. I think the strawberry cough was getting bleached on the tops so i cut it back to about 60% and moved it up and will readjust once it heals up a but. still getting 1000-1200 ppfd evenly

Dli around 30( accidentally had it on the wrong timer so it was on 45dli for the first 3 days) Trying plastic hooks for LST but I don’t like them since they’re not heavy enough . Used 120g biogrow and wathered on day 23 Oneof the branches unfortunately snapped and went to crisp very fast . It happed 2x this week that I forgot to put the sensor for humidity back into the tent and my humidifier went for full hotbox for like 2 hours . But they didn’t seem bothered at all I just hope my carbon filter didn’t got damaged . Watered on day 28 or 27 not sure anymore. Used a little bit of extra calmag since the older leaves showed some signs but nothing big besides this. 5L of tap water

I have ended the veg cycle and transitioned into flowering. I let them veg an extra week to get more growth around the inner nodes. Training is working as Daphni almost looks like a big Bonsei tree and most of the branches growing from the underside have curled up and are growing straight up. For the past weeks my pH levels have always gone down and my humidity stayed around 55% but over the past week of vegging the pH has started to rise over time and the Humidity has gone up 10% points to 66%. What caused that change in direction? will have to study. I have the interior radio playing the local rock station 95.7 FM. As for the roots, they are very long and new roots continue to grow. wondering what average root growth for a 1 gal container looks like. No major problems for now as Daphni prepares to enter the flowering stage.

Hello. This is the end of week 13 and the beginning of week 14 of veg. Didn't report last week because I was still harvesting the 13 plants of Captain Future. Just put the last plant into the curing bags last night. Each plant is getting 2 gallons of rainwater every 4 days or so. Did some branch topping and light defoliation this week. OK ... Ready for flowering ... Going to turn them over to flowering tonight or tomorrow. Take out the lights and close up the tent at 8 pm. Open it back up at 8 am and repeat. Found a couple of seams that need stitching in a few places to make it totally dark. I'll do that tomorrow. There's a 15 gallon reservoir in the tent too. I'll fill it on Sun with flowering nutrient and if I spray a couple of minutes a day, it lasts a week. Then on the seventh day I clean it up and make more nutrient for the coming week. I'll hand water when the pots seem dry. Works good ... last year I got about 2K from 6 plants ... so ... We'll see how it goes this year. Plant #1 smells wonderful. Soft Lemon with some sweet Papaya in there too, and is sticky when I'm working with it. Nice Plant. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

-4/9/23 Start of Week --Week 3 -4/9/23 (Day 22) --Changes: lowered the light and move the pot about 6 inches closer to the middle of the light (light intensity not changed). --Diary Enter; harvested half of the other plant that is in the same space, allowing me to drop the height of the light. will be watching for problems because light intensity was not changed (about 60%). -4/12/23 (Day 25) --Observations: Branch node are forming at the spade leaves at the first level shade leaves, also the third set of shade leaves are forming. growing quicker now that the light was lowered, also looks darker than at the beginning of the week. --Diary Entry: started growing faster after lowering the light and looks like it has increased chlorophyll production. will be changing the light cycle at the beginning of next week to 18/6 light/night, it will get that light cycle for 3 weeks then change back to 12/12 because of the fast flower competition. Fast Buds information on this cultivar clams that the flowering cycle takes 7-8 weeks so that's what I'm accounting for, leaving 1-2 weeks for hang dry and the start of curing. -4/15/23 (Day 28) --Observations: branch nodes doing very good, growing at good rate. --Diary Entry: will be changing to 18/6 light/night cycle beginning tomorrow, will also be transplanting and starting training soon. -4/15/23 End of Week

Day 43 : Watering with co2 tab / 5L. Also added food again because i think they need it. Increased ppm to 850. Maybe the next one will be pure water. Ventilation works all the time when lights are on. Temp and humi are stable and this is good for the girls. She has a lot of burns and i dont know why. Dont want to flush or something. I will let her take her way. Patience is the key always. Also removed some burned leaves from all ladies. She took 4cm in 3 days, so i guess stretching finished and start bud production. Edit (Day 47) : Watering with co2 tab every 5L. DsD drank pure water because of burns. She has lost a lot of leaves from bottom. I dont know what to do. I will keep watering her with pure water to see if burns stabilized.

Pulled her a bit earlier than I would have liked, due to pest pressure

June 30, 2019 at 2am / Day 23: 4.5" maximum height. Light LST and I defoliated 2 inner leaves for light penetration below. Light moved to 24" above canopy. I moved it up a bit higher than usual to promote vertical growth and for stretch across the 5 gallon pot. I have been keeping the light between 12 and 18 inches, and hope to be back at those heights soon. Watered with PH 6.07. Second runoff PH 6.44. I water the whole 5 gallon pot with a little more than 1 liter every 2 days. July 1, 2019 at 3pm / Day 24: Nice vertical growth at 5" maximum height prior to LST. Breezing through LST and light pruning of inner leaves. Hard to notice if there are delays from the stress. I'd say that there are and it is minimal. The exposure to stress and extra light may outweigh the stress. She seems really strong and happy. lol 9:00 pm more LST. July 2 at 1am / Day 25: Gone into preflower. Maximum height 6". Light moved back down to 14" above canopy. Watered with PH 6.1. Second runoff at PH 6.42. Watering is now 1L every day to day and half max. 2pm: Light moved to 18", Light LST at 3:30pm. 6pm: Light moved back to 14" at night and 18" in the day. July 3 at 3pm / Day 26: After minimal LST maximum height at 5.75". 6" at 10 pm. July 4 at Day 27: Defoliated and mixed in a very teeny teeny, tiny sprinkle of Gaia Green 4-4-4 slow release nutes and watered my 3 plants. A little less than my fingertips could hold of the dry mix nutes. Mixture at PH 6.1.

420 Fastbuds Week 7 Amnesia Zkittlez Auto Weekly update on these two gorgeous girls. They are progressing amazingly and really I couldn't be happier. I did up the tds on them to about a 1000 to give them an added boost. I'll dial it back down to about 400 as the weeks come. The smell is definitely strong on them so I can only imagine as the flower sites ripen up. So far so good. Happy Growing
