********* 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🙏

Absolute nightmare grow.. It all turned out great in the end, but it's the first and last time i'm growing full size plants in a Aeroflo 40 system. Water leaks due to root clogging the system. Stems that had 1cm to the edge in a 7.5cm pot. Everything basicly went ballistic from the time it went into flower. I removed and cleared leafs before flowering, but these ladies kept growing.
Aeroponics is the sickest thing i grown in so far, i just wish i was a bit more prepared for it.

we continue the run with the slowing down of the stretch and the beginning of the beautiful flowers.
This week my EC indicated me some things...
It was at 1.8 and went up to 1.9, so I added water to lower the ec to 1.6.
When my ec goes back up it tells me that I have enough nutrients in my solution.
Now, the ph is back to 1.7, I will add more water to bring it down to 1.5.
We can observe on some leaf tips a beginning of over-fattening, this is what I'm talking about above, I'll let you know next week if I lower the ec or if I keep 1.5.
I did one last defoliation and it was needed!
If you look at my vitals, it's not crazy, 70% humidity at this time of the year can become problematic, so I'm going to take the dehumidifier out and set myself at 55%.

Day 23
These I have not been giving any attention. I just left them and top them up when needed. However there was one occasion where I left the blue cheese by Expert Seed for too long. Because it was the biggest plant it drank all the nutrient solution fast. I have decided to put them back into the big container as my previous set up. I was trying to use smaller containers to save on water and nutrient solution. We will see if she recovers.

Day 26
Did some training in Bad Azz OG Cheese by Seedsman. Blue Cheese has seem to recovered.

Venga familia que ya viene la cosecha de estas Punch Pie de RoyalQueenSeeds , que ganas que tenia ya de darles machetazo.
No veas que pinta que tienen estas plantas.
Las flores aparte se ven bien resinosas.
a sido una genética con la que disfruté mucho cultivarla, es algo complicada cultivarla pero merece la pena si eres cultivador con experiencia no te será problema cosechar.

Hey Leute,
Chup Chup die kleine Lokomotive ist stark am Dampfen!!!
Die Woche 7 ist im vollem Gange und die Buds werden immer größer ^^
Ich konnte noch schnell genug reagieren, habe mich jetzt bei einem ppm von 1200 eingependelt.
Die Hitze von der Lampe ist immens, habe sie jetzt auf 75% dauerhaft reduziert, und die Höhe eingestellt, ca 1200 ppfd im ganzen Zelt.
Die Lemon Skunk (Red No. 2) rechts hinten macht mir etwas Sorgen aber jetzt ist es auch nicht mehr so lange bis zur Ernte!!!
Ich bin mal gespannt ob das mit dem Roten Licht wirklich eine Wirkung hat und ich bessere Buds und früher ernten kann.
Sie haben immer noch immensen Durst alle 4 Tage 5 Liter pH und Dünger Wasser.
Ich hoffe es gefällt euch wie sie aussehen, schade, dass man den Duft nicht durch Handy schicken kann!!!
Liebe Grüße Fićo!

Vamos familia, hora de cosechar estas Biscotti de RoyalQueenSeeds.
No veáis que pinta que tienen las flores están bien formadas y repletas de tricomas.
Después de 70 días de floración obtengo estas flores tan increíbles que huelen pfff.
Es una variedad un poco complicada de cultivar pero, que al final si da sus frutos.
Bastante contento con este primer cultivo de la temporada de indoor.
Dar las gracias a james por las genéticas dé RoyalQueenSeeds, y a todo el equipo de Agrobeta, que sin vosotros parte de estos proyectos no son posibles 🙏

Day 8 - very healthy sprout
a. the roots are already into the pool, forming ladder roots
b. I changed the DWC out, always from top watering you will get some gunk in there from the root riot/hydro rock dust, tends to build up on the roots, it never hurts anything, however it couldnt be good for the nutrient absorption.
c. water source is mountain water, 130ppm from spring.
d. TS1000 is at 100% intensity at 75cm away from the top, they love this
day 9 - growing fast
a. she is growing fast, and the roots are developing nicely
b. keeping the ph 5.8-6
Day 10 - looking very nice
a. this seedling is very healthy, strong
Day 11 - growing fast
a. this is a very fast plant, having to keep knocking the PH down
Day 12 - growing very well
a. had to move her to the corner of the tent to make way for my Afghan kush plant, it got too cold out in our barn for the Afghan kush
b. the seedling is growing very well, she still gets a good amount of light
Day 13 - growing well
a. she appears to be growing fine despite her tent mate
b. will be nice to move the Afghan out of here next week when it is supposed to get warmer
Day 14 - nice environment
a. the Afghan Kush and the Big Bud are friends now, lol
b. all is growing well here
c. video of our friendly environment

Week 6 update:
What up Grow family. These testers are growing fast and strong. Where in week 6 now and the swelling and ripening of flowers are going amazing. Still feeding 500ml/16oz daily as I've found that's the sweet spot for 3gal fabric pots for these. I'd say these probably have about 2 weeks left until they'll be finished.
All in all Happy Growing.

Gave her 300 ml and she had a small run off.
Getting chunky in the stem now 💪💚
Day 31

De-chlorinated water pH 6 today with Plagron pk13-14 5ml to 5L
Plagron power buds 5ml to 5L
Used 300ml of the 5L solution.
I will be using these on water days from now on as they are advised to be used every irrigation.
We'll see how they perform 💪💚
Day 32
01/08/24 Thursday
Another feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6, there now taking 300ml every evening.
Day 35
04/08/24 Sunday
END OF WEEK 😁
De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with Plagron products. 300ml each.
Had a issue with leaf invaders this week, I have treated and am checking every 48 hrs so far seems ok and not progressive.
All plants look great, very healthy, one of the Overdose is way behind and due to space maybe culled at flower I'll see how she gets on.

The week went well, the truth turned off the light for two days and the plant was a day without light at all, then the next day put near the window, the sun was bright enough, then turned on, now the plant is under 600 watts HPS Sylvania . tomorrow or after tomorrow I plan to transplant the plant into 10 gallons of a pot of airpot for the roots go beyond the pot ,very powerful. I also plan to do another topping and do scrog😋 is it too late for scrog? What do you think?😅

3 of the 4 seeds popped. I can see the other one in the rapid rooter but I added another stardawg just to keep things moving. I started with 300 ppm and got the NFT system running and new HLG 260’s at 36” above them turned all the way down.
