06/04/24. Going into week 5 flower. Not much to say here this week. Everything is pretty much same as last week. Seems like things are slow going. I feel like the buds aren’t doing much really and should be bigger. These are a longer going strain than my other so maybe that makes a difference. Maybe I’m just impatient. Guess we’ll see. Only thing aside from that I find concerning is #2 seems to have some pistils turning color. Seems way too early for that. I keep checking for hermie crap or pollen or something lol. If this was just its thing it seems like both plants would be doing it, but I guess you know what they say about assuming. Thanks for lookin & have a good week.

Week 2

Harvest Time Give few days, Let soil dry out and chop

Welcome to week 9. 7/2 today I defoiliated some damaged leaves from Gaia and Circe trying to make them look presentable. The lock out has done damage last will last until they are harvested. Last week was flushing every 2 days with 2 gallons of water for each plant in the tent. PH of the soil is down from 8 .2 to 7.2 not so alkaline. 7/3 water feed and some pics. I made 4 gallon fertilizer solutions using TPS1 fertilizer 10ml per gal. I made 1/2 strength at total 22,5ml Signal 1ml per gal. Total 2.5ml Ppm total 620 After I fed 4 liters each I followed 3 hours later to test the run off. Cream caramel Ec .99 ppm 690 ph 5.95 runoff 2 ltr in drip pan Gaia EC .88 ppm 620 ph 6.82 run off 2.5 ltr Circe Ec 1.30 ppm 910 ph 6.16 runoff .75 ltr 7/4 reduced light schedule to 15 hrs from 18 hrs. 7/5 flushed all with 2 gal each 7/6 cream Caramel is showing lockout now too😨 even with flushing. 7/7 more flushing. Last week I mentioned books that I've read that influenced my thoughts, beliefs and how I see the world. I grew up in the 1970s, ( my formative years) in Tidewater Virginia, situated on the Atlantic Ocean. Friends and I went to the beach, not for fun in the sun but to go to the A.R.E. The ARE is Edgar Cayce's, Association for Research and Enlightenment and the Heritage store which was a new age metaphysical crystal shop with crystals, stones, meditation, and yoga classes. I scoured old bookstores looking for books written on spiritualism, psychology, alternative religions, old doctor books, etc. My desire to be a healing practitioner stems from my books from Jeanne Rose in 1970s. She is the first herbal medicine woman in modern times. Florence Scovel Shinn, metaphysician, lecturer, artist- The Game of Life and others written in 1925. Edgar Cayce's trance readings. The older books are out of print but may still be found. There is a River is Edgar Cayce's life story. Hidden Life of Trees is a must read. It explains connectedness. Interestingly, my great uncle, in his writings (above) references the spiritual laws written in the books mentioned above. From various religious scriptures, the existence of personal behavioral laws, as I would describe as code of honor, as indicated are the ways to true Peace. Throughout my generations the search for spiritual truths have fallen outside the realm of traditional religious formation. From the spiritual sense, I have emerged full circle. grandparents' and parents' lifetimes, there were world wars. Everyone had a focus on world peace. Mucha's quote on week 8 emphasizes the need to build bridges, to achieve peace. Sadly, I remember watching the Vietnam War on the news when I was growing up. Well I started college with dream of becoming a doctor, but changed to business and accounting. During my college years, I worked part time jobs in a stock brokerage firm and jewelry store. From that point on I loved nice jewelry and desired the unusual gemstones that were mentioned by Edgar Cayce. Eventually I started my career in Accounting working in in hospitals, banking and finally in local and state government and higher education. In my late 30's having a midlife crisis, I felt that I really belonged in as a healer. I considered homeopathic school but my daughter was recently born. I did not want to travel to New York and be away from my family. An opportunity missed. My words of wisdom: If you have strong feelings in your gut, the little voice in your heart tells you that "this", what ever this represents to you, is your path. Follow your dream. My gut still gnaws at me. I graduated with a BS in accounting with a minor in psychology, continues my education thru MBA. My entire career was in accounting and finance. My last position was the Director of Financial Reporting and Revenue. I was happy, loved my job, I had a great staff. My plan was to work until I was 70 as I have good genes for longevity. Cancer changed that. The focus of oncologists is to check the cancer free box at 5 years. I'm working on cleaning up the aftermath of the storm. Yeah, my hormones are still wrecked. Ladies and Gentlemen, tell all the females you know, never take hormone replacement therapy. Try acupuncture, herbal teas, deep breathing.

Checked her height, and in three days she grew 2 “ Day 54! Just fed them again. ( they are starting to consume a lot) Day 55! 22” Day 56! Man they are eating so much!!! It’s crazy how fast my soil is drying up now. I’ll measure again tomorrow and see how much expansion they did in the first week of flowering 🤗🙏🏼🌱 Day 57! This concludes week 8 💯

Flower sites are clearly forming now, and a sweet smell comes out every time I open the grow space. For some of you seasoned pros this might be trivial, but I’ve changed my watering routine — and it seems to be paying off. I’m now watering more thoroughly, more slowly, and with enough runoff. Well… what do you know Sometimes the basics really do make the difference. Stats so far: 💧 Watering: Every third day 🌡️ Temp: 26–28°C 💦 Humidity: 65% RH 📈 VPD: ~1.18 kPa 💡 Light: ~700 PPFD

[UPDATE] 18/07/24 (WEEK 4 & 5) Continuation of week 4, will comeback and update this week with updates of plants recovery. Week 5 will be included with this update. Replacement of drip lines to NetBow halo rings by Netafim for a more uniformed watering Will be updating Germination week page with my current watering system set-up and it's upgrade next week along with EzRunOff Pump by The Bucket Company.

Looking great I think pheno one will end up finishing a week early, maybe soon I will start the flush for pheno 1, as far as pheno 1 and 2 I will keep them going until I see more development

Aquí os presento a mi nueva mascota.

Humidity dropping where I live finally, buds are swelling nicely, started using p/k 13 14 this week, i lifted the bananna plant up a little to the same level of the Cherry cola, Only a couple of weeks left till harvest, gonna start checking the trichomes under a scope till their nice and milky.

Variedad con una floración corta, entre 8/9 semanas. Procedente del original Exodus Clon (UK). Predominancia indica con un nivel de thc superior al 16% . Es muy fácil de cultivar y la alimentación la acepta muy bien en general . Cada etapa cumplió con mis expectativas y por ello aparte del sabor el colocon ... en cuanto a todas sus etapas le doy 9/10 . CEPA BRUTAL enserio.

BOX: 80x80 - lamp 250W 🌞 Temp: 27°C 💦 RH: 60% 💥 PPFD: 800+ µmol 🌬️ VPD: 1.3 1.4 ⚡ EC: 1.1 - 1.3 It’s been a good week: -Plants moved into the bigger 80x80 box. -Keeping stable climate conditions, which clearly shows in their growth. -Watering split into two portions per 24h – they drink more evenly without stress. -Adjusted LST to keep the canopy flat and ready for the upcoming stretch. Plants are healthy and moving forward nicely 🚀

ran out of stepwell bloom top dressing but this one is so close to ending that it does not need to be amended with anything other than a small power bloom top off. This one is between 10 and 14 days away from being done. just loving the smell. ive tried this cultivar grown outdoors and now i will get to try it from an indoor grow. Can't wait.

This diary should have been updated a long time ago but the lack of time and mine reluctance to actually go back to the time of harvest, I did delete most of photographs of the harvest in rage as it was not a nice memory for me, here is why. So the last update i made to the diary was on 19 September and already then i knew something was brewing because we had a week long rain spell and it did not look like it was about to stop at that and the weather forecast showed a month more of rain. Without that rain and high RH i would probably give them girls one more week under the SE 7000 :/ The weather forecast was unfortunately right, so all in all we had around six week of relentless rain...outside it was from 90 to 95% RH in my house it was mostly 85%RH and in my grow room which is located in a basement i had from 60 to 63%RH with lights and dehumidifier on and around 70% with lights off. And that was a killer for my tightly packt grow room. What i did was to open all the walls from the grow room at dark time and had two big external fans blowing air at my plants but it did not help much... My first observation of bud rot was on 24 of September while making photographs of the beautiful buds. That week i lost to bud rot 4 bud stems, after the chop while drying i found another 5 infected stems, and by final trim just before jaring them i removed one more. So all together i lost to bud rot 10 bud stems, four of them were really big ones. I had made some pictures of the buds with bud rot and of the buds hangin in drying room but they did not survive my dark mood :( Sot thats the reason i got only few photographs to show for it. The final weighing was actually not as bad and lightened my mood a bit, that and that that i did not found any more mold on my cured Killer Kush :) So the dry weight after curing was 720 gram of dry bud I still till today did not make # from all the trimmings...but the trimmings are properly dried and waiting for bubble bugs in my freezer. After this learning experience i decided to add at least one more 30W air mixing internal fan, and i did get to know one of my relatives possess a 300W dehumidifier so next time i will be better prepared. Maintenance wise i will try to defoliate and lollipop my plants more aggressively to let in more air penetration.

Esta semana baje la dosis de N debido a un exceso presentado principalmente en las variedades vodka lemon, nos dice que esta cepa es más susceptible a sobre fertilizar. Estoy esperando conseguir la malla scrog para instalarla, dentro de estos días debería llegar. La planta madre tangie recuperada total con brotes nuevos será un placer disfrutar de nuevo esa querida tangie😋

The buds are nice and chunky, completely covered in resin, and the terps are absolutely incredible 🤤🤤

She got defoliated this week…I’m in love with her branching structure. My first time growing with extra hours of light to extend veg is working.

I took these on my Snapchat is why there is so many of them 😅 I'm currently doing the 48 hours of darkness to help produce more trichomes. I did SO MUCH to this plant, it looks like it will DEFINITELY have some weight to it, but you will have to wait until it's dry 😄
