********* 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🙏

Hello guys!
So it’s the end of week 2 of flowering and all is going well. Been watering every 2 days and, as you can see, we have white pistils and small buds in every plant
Not much to say, the ladys are green, stretching and growing buds as it should
Yesterday i’ve defoliated one of the critical + 2.0 clone and next week I’m going to defoliate the rest of the plants. Just wanted to test when it is better to do the defoliation so it’s kind of an experiment
Tell me what do you think of how this is going

Week 10 now and nearly ready to finish up, think I am going to stop giving nutrients this weekend, the girls are absolutely stinking.. getting nice and sticky,, they are quite dense too which I wasnt expecting.. one plant has pretty much just fox tailed the whole time, but happen to go the tallest and probably the frostiest.. all in all though happy with the turn out so I'm looking forward to getting them chopped ect and trying it out :)

Week 8 Looking absolutely huge😂 They’re so tall and wide . Lots of healthy green leaves and strong roots.
I was worrying a lot about sex issues as when I did my research I found out they’re quite common to hermaphrodite. Was really worrying but all calyx’s have female signs (so far🙏🏻) so pray for me brothers&sisters.

I was told this is a 1:1 CBD strain but feels more like a 2:1
Ok so this plant yelded large , thick and dense flowers that are completely covered in sugar ,
The flavour and smell is fantastic even without a cure ,
I've been using this in the vapourisor and the flavour is incredible ,
A very thick and heavy gas that does not make you cough at all , and for me it's a very heavy head high and then you get a very pleasant feeling in your lungs and chest ,
The effect is very relaxing and claiming ,
For me it's all you expect from cannabis without the head f*CK
It's a really nice smoke indeed ,
Too the point that I think I will not be turning this plant into oils as in the decarbing temperature you need too choice ether the CBD or the thc at they both decarb at different temperatures CBD needing alot higher temp too activate than thc does , so you ether burn off the thc too get the CBD , so I think this will be my night time chillax smoke as it's real nice ,

What a long and interesting week with these. Flushed really well this week, then cal mag'd them. Wk7 I will be adding yet more cal-mag. Runoff PH is 6.2-6.5, soil ph direct is 6.5.-7ph, Feed Ph is 6.
EC runoff is a bit high, betting its from the LUSH at the bottom. Going to just cal-mag and water.

hello everyone, weed masters!
your Peaky is raising some very good queens !!

their buds are filling with sticky trichomes like glue! mmmmm a sweet lemon aroma can already be perceived!
damn ... I can't wait!
HAPPY AND ABUNDANT HARVESTS FOR EVERYONE

Day 48, end of week 3 into flower 🍓🌱
Plant got a good Lollipopping 🍭and a heavy defoliation.
I've run into a big problem this week, as i noticed the plant is having a light stress..
Lots of leafs got curled up and tip burned😱🤦🏽😞
I turned the lights down to 170w, and it seems the stress on the plant has stopped.
This is my 3rd run with this light setup, and on the last 2 runs i was growing with about 220W with the same setup/tent size.
First one i grew was a Cinderella Jack auto from dutch passion, was 100% perfect with 220w!
Second was Zkittlez by FastBuds, and with her i did saw signs of light stress, but the plant came out perfect at the end.
But this OG Kush auto seems extra sensitive to strong lightning,
I just hope she will recover and produce well 😳🤞🏽🌱
Other then that the plant just keep getting bigger and bigger!! 🤯😍
Its 54 cm high (started the flower at around 30cm!) And she was topped of course,
Absolutely fantastic in that matter!✌️🏽

She smell incredible, a very sweet sickly smell. She is feeding very heavily and drinking 3 litres per day. She is only in a 3.8 litre pot! Buds are rock solid and building daily. Love it!

Day 74 (28/05/18) - 2 of the Girl scout cookies are looking very close to being finished and seeing all cloudy trichomes with a couple amber. I look for 80/20% ratio of cloudy/milky to amber trichomes for harvest as this gives the best medicinal effects from my experiences. Flushing the GSC and will be waiting for her to use up the remainder of her nutrients in the leaves before I chop, hopefully get a nice fade. One of the Stardawg girls isn't so far behind but being more sativa dominant, I expected that. May upload one picture of her and how she is getting on. The smell coming from the GSC is so potent and sweet. Hoping the smoke quality lives up to the smell. Not long to go now.

This week I tried to reduce the amount of nutrients and also just add nutris every other watering. I make a defoliation of the burned leafs from the overfeeding regarding last week (not sure if it was correct but seeing the burned leafs wasnt doing me any good).

Come home and open tent and fuk the space is full,
I switch 12/12 now and all looks good and smell was "fresh" no dusty or moldy.
So many days that i start to miss these Ladys alot and bigest worry was the poor ventilation or something mess airflow but that was not the case!
It seem that my tent start to get lilla small and i may need one size biger and i wasent able to buy same producer solution but clad i have some terra power's liquids and i start to Bloom these sweetharts.
Not enythin chainse but Light time so i keep u into loop if something has to do but thanks for tips to all and till next week.

Fought root rot/res/nute issues all week, but seemed to have turned the corner. Nice steady growth.
Cleaned the res hard at the start of the week and continued to treat with H2O2, and switched to Lucas Formula for nutes along the way.
I added ~30mL of 3% H2O2 daily for 4 days before the smell seemed to disappear and roots recovered. Afterwards double dosed the hydroguard again.
Noticing very dark and shiny leaves with some clawing. I hadn't been measuring the EC in the res and figured I burned the plants. I replaced 1 gal of the res with pH'd tap water to reduce the EC/PPM. Did not take exact measurements.
My notes get thinner from here as I had too many plants going at once to properly document this first attempt.
