Day 8- CRX Sunny X-5 is failing. Time for a new flowering LED. Thinking either the Viparspectra 1200w or the Mars Reflector 192 but open to suggestions for a 4x4 canopy. Day 9- more leaf tucking in the net. Decided to go with two smaller lights(Mars ECO98’s) rather than 1 big one as there’s nothing in the middle to utilize the primaryily lit area of a bigger light. Hopefully they arrive tomorrow. Day 10- Everyone happy and flowering. Topped up res with H2O. Anxiously awaiting new lighting Day11 - New lights arrived and installed. More leaf tucking. All plants are actively flowering now Day13- more tucking. Buds are beginning to stack up and seem to be liking the new lights. Day 14- more leaf tuck and H2O topup. Next week lower N. Raise PK and will likely add some RAW amino acids, and biogenic silica. Possibly some vitamin B.

week one of flower looks cool so far no problems with the feeding just used CAL MAG and Mammoth p in the watering the media is holding the water for at least 4 days. going to use the auto flower as a gage for the flowering bump if it needs one.

So I'm learning that the zkittles is always hungry lol, 3 weeks left for her and will be feeding pk booster this week. Runtz is showing pisstils now on day 28 so about right for this stage. Day 1 for my new bean ethos genetics banana daddy auto, looking forward to this.

This week got new light higher lumens a new ts 2000 along with my new ts 1000. Gave girls some tea lil higher ppm this time putting on some nice colax development should see nuce improvement this week with flowers.

Training has begun and she is accepting it very good.

Whats up everybody cheers to another week of growth for everyone! This week the ladies buds started showing signs of progress. You can see them produce more and more resin every day thanks to the cold weather its really easy to keep a pretty dry environment. Can’t wait to do my final defo next week! Until then stay green!

Things are going pretty well. 🙂 I am just about to start flushing. Buds are swelling up and getting denser every day. Getting close to the finish line. 😎 I'll update throughout the week.

Week update – Full bulking mode 🌱🔥 This week we increased plant nutrition, pushing feeding up to EC 1.57 / pH 6.3, using a total irrigation volume of 22 L (GrowDiaries doses shown in ml/L). Feeding recipe (22 L total): • CalMag Xtra: 30 ml • Bio·Grow: 6.3 ml • Bio·Bloom: 133 ml • Top·Max: 23 ml • Bio·Heaven: 21 ml • Bud Candy: 38 ml • Atazyme: 25 ml Irrigation is done via drip system + manual support watering to ensure full substrate homogenization. We also fixed a flow imbalance on one dripper so all plants now receive identical flow. Environmental parameters this week: Air temp: 24.6 °C 💧 RH: 52.4 % 📈 VPD: 1.47 kPa ☀️ PPFD: ~914 µmol/m²/s 🌞 DLI: 39.74 mol/m²/day CO₂: ~910 ppm New Spider Farmer dehumidifier has been fully integrated, allowing tighter humidity and VPD control during bulking. Plants are responding well, buds are stacking and swelling. You can also check the microscope shots we took this week and daily progress on Instagram (link in profile).

Not completely done yet! Still drying this baby I'll update once she's all dried up and hand trimmed.

I love the smell of this plant it is so nice and jummy 😀 candy and lemon also she is very sticky 😋

White Widow is coming along nicely. Buds are definitely fattening up. She looks and smells good too! 👍 Probably still a month til harvest, but I'll wait patiently.

So had to adjust the weeks in the diary but here we are day 21 week 3 and they are starting to show preflowers and I’m greeted with a faint sweet smell every time I open the tent. Grew about 3” average week over week internode distance is compact, this variety stalk is tremendous in power tried twice to start lst and both times the plant managed to straighten it self upright within hours. After some debate I’ve decided that I’ll let her be an see what happens. The stretch has started almost 3” of growth in last 3 days Water with recharge and elementXX gonna wait till day 25 to hopefully see their effect on the plants So that recharge is amazing 2” of growth in less than 48hrs made me have to adjust the light height. So from day 21 till day 25 just over 4” of height gained. Next feeding I’ll start to introduce bloom and molasses. Morning of day 27 introducing TNB Naturals and turning on the second 600w LED, plants have seen explosive growth this week, tied some of the secondary branches down to allow better light penetration. I’m excited to see what the CO2 will encourage.

This past week has been a struggle. I keep my plants on the balcony during the day and in the grow box during night and I inspect every single of their leaves everytime I move them in or out. A few days ago I noticed some kind of microscopic egg on one of her flowers and then some sort of parasites under her leaves. Since then: panic. I searched for the name of the parasite (acarus) and bought some neem oil which I applied manually on every leaf (to prevent it from going on the flowers) and onto the ground. Since then the parasites are almost gone. But now she has these "sad" leaves, with their points bent down and the margins as well.. I've read different explanations, but I think in my it might be the high temperature and the overwatering, together with the dammed fungus flies. I'll keep going with the neem oil and diminish the water. Apart from all this, her flowers are still growing and producing so much resin🤤

22 December 2020 Both of these ladies are almost ready for harvest, not really much to update. Next week I will remove the scrog and and start flushing these ladies ladies for a week.

Out of the two plants, I only harvested one of them. I dried and cured the gassy Fino. It is curing right now. I’ll do a report a little later as far as the girl in the back right she she just sucked. Extremely large fee and just didn’t grow good, so I’m going to turn her into bubble hash chopped her down in frozen. The gassy Fino on the other hand did yield very well. I got 7 ounces off of her of all solid buds and there was probably about 2 ounces of large fat, I just threw in the trim bin

This was an enjoyable and amazing learning experience and I look forward to trying to use coco again in the future. Thank you to Grow Diaries for making an amazing platform for people to gather and support one another! And thank you to the community for helping me through this experience!

Growth is going great again The previous problem has been resolved. The yellowing of the leaves has not spread upwards I did a final defoliation this week. I didn't want to do an aggressive defoliation, I just removed the damaged leaves and those that were directly on the buds. This week it looks healthy, the buds are slowly thickening, I will slightly increase the dose of flowering fertilizer at the end of the week. It already absorbs three liters of water quite quickly and there is no water coming out of the pot, so I will increase it to four liters.

Partial reset on this girl who is obviously stunted and struggling. Not all strains are created equal and experience combined with skill goes a long way. So, taking my lumps with this girl. So, long story short, I reduced the ppm by draining and replacing 2.5 gallons of ph'd RO w/cal-mag added. This resulted in bringing down the ppm to roughly 500 w/ph at around 5.6. Will continue to monitor ph, ppm, and water levels for the remainder of this week looking for stabilization. At that point, I will gradually raise the ppm levels. If she doesn't make it back before TKO is ready to flip, I may need to scrap her given limited space. Come on girl, let's go... Midweek 4 update: Well, time has come for a decision. I moved the PBCRbx over to the 3x3 grow tent, so I can continue to care for her. Clear case of too much nutrients (high ppm levels) that have stunted early stage veg growth. Tried monitoring and adjusting ph twice a day but ppm remained higher than range resulting in fan leave tips looking burnt. Also some nutrient lock out occurring. Given ppm remaining high and water level dropping, I decided it was time to do a complete flush. Emptied and thoroughly cleaned bucket, air stone, and air line exposed in bucket. RO water with cal-mag and nutrients ph'd to 5.5 w/ppms at roughly 625. A day after flushing, the PBCRbx is looking a lot better. As a back up, I am running a separate PBCRbx by Ethos in a 3 gal fabric of coco peat, which is doing very well.
