* ********* Week 11 - June 20 to 26, 2020 - Days 71 to 77 from germination *********** * It is the end of flush week and she went into darkness on Wednesday night, day 75, for two days. Saturday will be harvest day and start and the dry process👍 This week she continued to fill in and she also pushed out more frosty tricombs!! The fade happened this week more and she fed off of more of the nutrients within the plant.....perfect😃......would like a little more even but she was ready based on tricombs. Would like to have seen the lower leaves a little more yellow but its good. I am feeling very strongly that the big part of the pH issues this run was a change in feed water. I have always used bottled RO water for all my grows, except outdoors, but this grow I switched to tap water. Dechlorinated the water with air stone and gave it 24 hours min before using. Wanted to save some money and tired of lugging bottles downstairs a couple of times a week☹️ This is worked out nicely and a lot more convenient. However, the city must be putting some crap in the water that is causing issues in my media and raises the pH after the watering. Out of the tap it is 8.4pH and 275ppm. Since ppm were not too bad in my opinion I moved forward without filtering the water.......oops🤬🤬🤬 Out of options on what is causing the issue, I switched back to RO water late last week........all the girls are happier!!!! F......missed the cause for weeks. Always learning from this plant and my own mistakes to get better every run😉👍 Also wanted to add a little more stress to girl to help push out some increased resin. I drilled a 5/16” hole into the main stem to cause her stress. I did this rather than trying to break a branch and will see it goes this run. Sterilized a new bit in Alcohol and went for it. They went into darkness about a couple of hours later. Excited to see what happens when she comes out to get chopped😃😃 Not really a lot more to add this week as it was mainly looking at the tricombs and her buds. The pH will impact the harvest but she has been fun to grow and very resilient to pest and bug issues as well as grower curve balls. As always.......nice job Sweet Seeds....... SWS56 is very solid and I look forward to running her again one day. Beautiful little girl and makes me smile😃😃😃 Little more detail...... June 20/20 - Day 71 - Rezin and Liquid Weight @ 2ml/L = 285ppm and 4.0pH - 8L given to get a good flush....pH still running around 7.4 - Runoff in pots already were 7.9pH and 685ppm. - after 8L water runoff was 7.4pH and 360ppm. - she is 20” tall and 24” wide. - a number of clear tricombs but more becoming cloudy. June 21/20 - Day 72 - dry out day. - buds are firming up......squeezed a couple🧐 June 22/20 - Day 73 - Rezin @ 1ml/L = 120ppm and pH the water to 2.7!!!!!!!!! - Given 2L watering. - No runoff water and I am good with that as I want the low pH water to stay in the medium. - her frost levels are really coming out now.....was able to lower tent temps to 75 degrees and 51% humidity......its been raining a bit so damn humidity has been high. June 23/20 - Day 74 - 2L plain water feed - 80ppm and pH to 2.4!!!!!! - not excited about these crazy low pH numbers but doing what we can - her tops are getting more pointy now and ripening nicely - leaves continue to fade......she is close - checking tricombs, I think we are done and tomorrow will be her last day so that I can take down on Saturday. June 24/20 - Day 75 - 2L plain water feed - 80ppm and pH to 3.0 - Going into darkness tonight so this was her last bit of moisture. - drilled a hole into the stem.....was going to do a couple of holes but not trying this method before I decided to leave it with one hole. - into darkness tonight So we finish up the week with her in the dark. Next update will be the harvest!! Thanks very much for taking the time to review my diary!! Sorry for running behind often on this run.........everyone has had a busy life the last couple of months in the world and its been no different here...........a huge Kudos to all the Growmie‘s that are able to keep up with their diaries on daily basis on GrowDiaries.......its a commitment😃👍👍 Sweet Seeds girls are very solid genetics with great vigour and resilience.......this strain is no different........great job Sweet Seeds🙏

The cannabis plant is in excellent health, showing vibrant green leaves and a robust structure. The overall appearance suggests that the plant is thriving in its current environment. No signs of nutrient deficiencies, or diseases have been observed. A light defoliation was performed during this week. This practice will help the plant focus its energy on the upper buds, leading to better yield and quality in the upcoming weeks. The plant has been fed according to the BioBizz nutrient schedule, specifically following the guidelines for week 2 of the flowering stage. The nutrients provided include BioBizz Bio-Bloom, Bio-Grow, and Top-Max, which have been carefully measured and administered to support the plant’s transition into full flowering. I'm curious to see what will become of the plant. Stay tuned! 🌱🌱

Today was Harvest, Wet-Trim & Hang, we'll have to wait a bit more for dry-weights, flavours & effects. We were given a couple of clones from a family friend to try our hand at a straight, 8-Week Flowering. With both plants in the tent, we were able to really cut out teeth & watch as each plant responded differently. What was instantly surprising during the initial harvest was the drastic difference in overall yield. I'm sure we over trimmed, early on & as a result, Northern Lights came in looking thinner, taller & by comparison, OGPK came in looking a bit shorter, stout, thicker, heavier & much fuller. At the scales, Northern Lights comes in at 106.56 grams (wet), OGPK 76.4 grams (wet). So, that big buffy, thick look certainly didn't tell the tale. We'll have more in a few weeks once we get dry, trimmed weights & hopefully we'll have some flavours & effects to report!

1/25/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 1- took 2 Tops today and cleaned up a few lower leaves that were hanging down. The FiM seems to have worked well and looks like I have three branches coming in where it was FiMed. 1/26/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 2- took 2 Tops from the sides and took a little of the foliage that was touching the lid. She seems to be doing very well.. Water change day tomorrow.. YAY!! will get a good picture of the roots and see how she is doing. 1/27/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 3- Water Change Day! I noticed a slight red coming in on the STEMS which I added a pinch of EPSOM salt to help correct. I added 36 Gallons of Water I added the following Nutes: Silica = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil CalMag= .75Mil/Gal= 27Mil FloraMicro = 4.2Mil/Gal= 187Mil FloraGro= 3.8Mil/Gal= 137Mil FLoraBloom= 3.0Mil/Gal= 108Mil ORCA = .5Mil/Gal= 18Mil EPSOM- 1 big pinch 1/28/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 4- I cleaned her up just a little bit on stuff hanging down. I also made sure the PH is balanced so she could soak up the New Nutes. 1/29/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 5- I Got sick, Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/30/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 6- I was still to sick to go to my grow room... Possibly food poisoned.. Luckily for me the system was able to do what it do and hold it down until I was feeling better. 1/31/2024 Vegetation Week 3 Day 7- First day back.. Her PH was down to 5.72 so I raised the PH back up closer to 6.0, I took a few pictures and got her height.. Feeling better through prayer so was able to get some pics today.

🌿 Woche 5 🌱 Wachstum & Training 🌱 Das Training läuft fantastisch – ein täglicher, stetiger Prozess. 😬✂️ Beide Damen sehen rundum gesund aus, mit kräftig grünen Blättern. 💪🍀 Sogar ein halb abgebrochener Trieb hat sich richtig gut erholt. 👌🌱 Man merkt inzwischen, dass eine der Damen dominanter ist. 👑🔥 Der mittlere Bereich ist hart umkämpft – vielleicht doch ein Ticken zu eng für zwei Pflanzen. 🤼‍♀️😨🌱 Ich habe daher ordentlich entlaubt und ein paar kleinere Triebe entfernt. ✂️🍃🗑️ Langsam füllt sich der gesamte Raum mit einem gleichmäßigen Blätterdach. 🌳💚 Der Stretch hat begonnen – und alle Triebe haben richtig Bock, steil zu gehen! 🚀🌿🎯 💧 Living Soil – Only Water 💧🌍 Wie man sieht: Kein einziger Trieb oder ein Blatt mit Mängeln. ✅🌱👌 Die Vegetationsphase lief absolut problemlos – ganz ohne Temperatur- oder Luftfeuchtigkeitsunterstützung. 🌡️💨❌ Nur mit einer Mischung aus destilliertem Wasser und Leitungswasser. 💧🚰 🔄 Drehbarer Topf 🎥 Ich bin nach wie vor ein großer Fan dieser Lösung! 😄👍 Nicht nur entstehen witzige kleine Videos, sondern es hilft enorm beim Training. 📸✂️ Ich achte beim Formen stets darauf, die Drehfunktion nicht einzuschränken – klappt bisher richtig gut. 🔄✔️ 💡 Licht & Schatten 🔆🌘 Im Laufe der Woche habe ich das Licht auf bis zu 400 PPF hochgedreht. 💡📈 So streben die Triebe weiter aktiv nach Licht – bekommen aber auch nicht zu wenig. 🌞🌱➡️💥 💧 Blumat & Gießen 💧🚿 🕒 Alle paar Tage bei 110 mbar 🚿 Jeweils 2 l Wasser 💦 ☀️ Wetter 🌡️🔥 Die Temperaturen waren (und sind) brutal: 26°–33 °C. ☀️ Scheint aber bisher alles gut zu verkraften. 😌🌿💪 🎶 The Grow must go on! 🌱🎵💚✨

Didn't realise my syntetic nutriton had so bad NPK for flowering (3-5-7) so my biggest girl got some nitrogen toxicity (dark and shiny leaves). This resulted in creating small and compact buds and slowing down the growth. Therefore i went back to my biobizz (organic) with better NPK (altho' still not optimal ratio). On the third and smallest Zkittlez i cut of the lowest 2 nodes during this week to promote some stress and therefore some seeds, she will produce max 20-25gram of dry weed anyways (maybe naive, but hey why not). Never actually smelled the terpenes of this lineage (grape) and yeah... I would use this as my perfume if possible. Really makes it rewarding to grow your own stuff. - 12L air-pot with 15% perlite - X6 COB LED Full Spectrum (303.5W±5%) Good vibes 🙏

Muy contento en esta tercera semana de flora, se le hizo la ultima limpieza de bajos y un poco de defoliación. Ya se pueden apreciar perfectamente las preflores y sus distintas coloraciones, ya que al ser de semilla aunque todas sean la misma variedad cada planta muestra sus fenotipos dominantes.

Not many to comment this week. The plant is develoving good and dense buds and the smell is increasing. I like how the flowers look. According to the breeder it should be ready in 9 weeks before germination, i think it will be more

Week 12 - Day 1 : Restday, Watered my plants 4 Liters per plant with nutrients, added Big Bud. Week 12 - Day 2 : Pinches branches of subject 1,2 and 3. Week 12 - Day 3 : Restday. Week 12 - Day 4 : Restday, Watered my plants 4 Liters per plant. Week 12 - Day 5 : Supercropped subjects 1,2 and 3. In my opinion, the canopy of 1,2, and 3 were growing vertically again so I wanted to make it more even, I tied them down to 2 nodes lower after bending the mainstem in a 90-degree angle. Week 12 - Day 6 : Unknown information Week 12 - Day 7 : Unknown information Note : * = Changed watering schedule to giving 4 Liters per plant per day since day 3 during week 12, currently giving 6 liters a day per plant due to extreme temperature change. Might drop back to 5 Liters per plant per day depending on weather conditions. Note : Haven't been giving nutrients to my plants since the beginning of week 12, will be giving nutrients again at the end of week 14. The plants are having 2 weeks of flushing and seeing if they are in need of nutrients or not. Week 13 - Day 1 : Upscaled watering * Week 13 - Day 2 : Unknown information Week 13 - Day 3 : Water check, pinched lower branches Week 13 - Day 4 : Unknown information Week 13 - Day 5 : Temperature check, humidity check, pinched branches of subjects 1,2 and 3 Week 13 - Day 6 : Restday Week 13 - Day 7 : Pinched branches from subjects 1,2 and 3.

Day 23 They are getting very hungry/thirsty they take much water and love the higher nutrient content!!! 🙀 Green gelato buds already smell nice a little hint of citrus and they fatten up good... Sweet ZZ still isnt showing a hint of the stretch I was hoping for ... hopefully she will get enaught light.. Fruit Spirit going fast and better than expected. I know there are some yellow / brownish leafs.... but i wont pick them unless its bad because i gave her heavy defo all the way and just want her to relax and get fat now for the rest of her life =) Day 28 Lowered the light about 10 cm to just 35-30 cm distance and so far they like it =) Also installed a fan under the scrog in the middle of the 4 pots for air circulation under the buds The Sweet ZZ Finally really developes some flowers (yessss was a bit worryed) Green Gelato just is a beast 100% love the genetic so awsome!! no topping just lst and scrog and that girl even goas better than the 2 weeks longer vegged Fruit Spirits. respect to RQS for breeding that girl cant wait to try the auto version got 5 seeds ready to go =P Fruit Spirit starts do get some nice berry like smell and looks like shes gonna finish early. so i guess when they are ready for the chop i will replace them with some autos maybe cookies and blueberry or something will see week 4 finished untill now im very happy with the outcome 😁

Harvest was on Day 80 from Seed Second run with this strain and she more than passed expectations! I thought the buds were big last go round but holy sh*t are they ever big this time around! And just packed with crystals, seriously can't wait to try this round and compare vs last round. The switch to Autopots was a huge improvement in my grow. Plants double the size of last time and I'm betting 30-50% more yield after dry and cute. Nice not having to water every day or two, gives you more time to focus on other aspects of growing and life. Maybe partially why the better outcome, more time spent on plant maintenance vs just watering. Was pretty impressed with the diameter of the stalk vs the size of the hole water moves through. These girls were pushing a LOT of water and you can tell when you see how hollow the stalks are. Despite that they were strong as ever. Never had a branch snap or bend, and I didn't use any plant support this go around. Was pretty impressed with trichomes production this time around as well. Buds were just packed and sticky AF while being so dense that they barely compress when squeezed. Also both plants went quite dark/purple in the end this go around where last run they were lighter like #1 was to start. Got a couple seeds left of this strain, will be saving them for once I eventually run out of bud. Really like the taste and effects from this strain, want to keep it around long as I can since I didn't see it listed any more on the breeders page 🤔
