So last day of training. Going to do a bit more defoliation and triming but for the most part that's it. Got another 7-8 weeks to go before she's done and I can't wait. Had a bit of a issue with the humidity and temperature this last week. Humidity was staying just under 40% tell today and the temperature was droping to 16c at night when the light was off. But it's getting warmer outside so hopefully that won't happen again. Well that's all for now, keep growing!!!

This week I defoliated the plants a bit. The plants have burnt leaf spots so I am going to give them a few watering sessions without feeding them with a PH of 6 next week I plan to switch them to 12-12.

🌸 Woche 5 der Blüte Die Early Skunks sind jetzt mitten in der Blüte und entwickeln sich richtig stark. Der Stretch ist so gut wie durch und die Pflanzen haben ein schönes, gleichmäßiges Blätterdach aufgebaut. Die Blüten werden von Tag zu Tag sichtbarer und setzen schon ordentlich Harz an. Das DWC-System läuft stabil: frische Nährlösung, klare Werte und die Wurzeln strahlend weiß. Genau so soll es in dieser Phase aussehen. Die Pflanzen nehmen sehr gut auf und zeigen keinerlei Mängel oder Stress – Farbe, Struktur und Wachstum sind voll im grünen Bereich. Das Klima bleibt konstant und das Setup arbeitet sauber zusammen. Licht, Luft und CO₂ greifen perfekt ineinander, wodurch die Pflanzen richtig Tempo machen. Fazit: Sehr starke Woche. Gesunde Pflanzen, satte Farbe, stabile Blütenentwicklung. Alles bereit für die nächsten Wochen, in denen die Buds jetzt richtig zulegen werden. 🌱🔥

Another great week for the girls, I have not seen a single deficiency, other than the odd yellowed leave under the canopy, typically due to lack of light. I will come through soon and do a defoliation of both tents to allow for more light to penetrate, and perhaps get a good push for some girthy colas 😋. I have lowered the temps a bit in the tents by controlling my lung room temps, and they are maxing out at 77 degrees and hitting a night time cool of about 70. I have also lowered the humidity to hover between 47 and 52 %. Hopefully will start to get some nice colours as they finish. As I mentioned before, when I water is when I like to get under the canopy and check the stems and leaves for anything that shouldn’t be… and typically once a week after watering I’ll wipe down the tent and sanitize any surface I can. There is no reason to get lazy, that’s how you get Pests, Mold, and PM. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

Will post bud shots this evening. Overall royal queen seeds critical kush is a great strain! Would grow again. 0

I installed a PH controller but it didn't work right and only the ph up peristaltic pump is working. I will use this over my vacation as my PH drifts down naturally so this should work until i get a replacement. I watered in my gsc and other seedlings until runoff with 850 ppm heavy in nitrogen to green them up as the organic top dressing is taking too long.will see how they respond.on week 4 day 4 They are responding well to nitrogen Gsc is taking off!!!will continue nitrogen until end of this week as needed.

Well, I nutrient burned her 3 times in a row from 1st time growers mistakes. And she didn't take it too well. She got stunted pretty bad. But I still managed to pull her thru. I did make a huge mistake and used florakleen for 2 days longer then directions say and when harvested buds and stems had a werid wet stickiness and had a werid smell. So I'm pretty sure I ruined them. They are drying now I haven't weighed them and to be honest I am probably not going to smoke it and just throw it away after weighting it. I'm super sensitive to off smells and taste, so I'll pass after smelling during harvest. But I did cut one branch off before adding florakleen, so I will have a bud or 2 to try... I'll check back in after a proper cure of the branch I cut off before running the whole damn plant... smh...

ตัดแล้ว Harvest เล่นเอาซะเหนื่อย แต่ก็มีความสุข ไม่อยากจะเชื่อว่า Aeroponics จะทรงพลังได้มากขนาดนี้ ชอบโดยรวมแล้วชอบมากๆเลย สุดยอดสุดสุด และถ้าปลูกต่อไปจะหาวิธีปลูก ป้องกันการอุดตันของหัวฉีด

today was the day 🙏 time was running out and i have to harvest "Hilde" 😏 summary of "Hilde" 92 days in under 3 min. enjoy 😅🙏 I dry the plant in the boiler room because the climate there is very good. I also darkened the room so that no sunlight disturbs the drying process.😏 "Darkroom" Day 2 for "Hilde" 😏😄😜

These girls where a joy to grow and even more of a joy to smoke! It really is a weed that has delivered in every department the colour, the smell, the taste, the yeilds. I'm off to binge watch prime and order an obscene amount of takeaways 👋🏻✌️🏻

🌈 Mental Rainbow (Sweet Seeds) – Week 7 | Flowering Day 1 🌸 Here we go – the bloom begins! 🚀 Yesterday I flipped her, so today is officially Day 1 of flowering. She’s thriving in my own homemade Living Soil, and the root structure is crazy thanks to my custom booster 🌱. The smell is already phenomenal – sweet, intense and super fresh 🌿💨. Today I removed a few leaves 🍃✂️ to let the light penetrate deeper into the canopy. She also got just a light dose of Greenhouse Feeding Bloom – nothing heavy, since the Living Soil is already full of life ✨. This lady looks ready for a colorful journey – follow along to see how bright this rainbow will shine 🌈🔥. --- 🌈 Mental Rainbow (Sweet Seeds) – Woche 7 | Blütetag 1 🌸 Jetzt geht’s los – die Blüte startet! 🚀 Gestern umgestellt, heute offiziell Tag 1. Sie wächst in meiner selbstgemachten Living Soil Erde und hat durch meinen eigenen Booster eine extrem starke Wurzelstruktur entwickelt 🌱. Der Geruch ist schon jetzt phänomenal – süß, intensiv und richtig frisch 🌿💨. Heute habe ich ein paar Blätter entfernt 🍃✂️, damit das Licht besser nach unten kommt. Dazu gab’s eine kleine Portion Greenhouse Feeding Bloom – nur ganz leicht, da die Living Soil schon genug Power hat ✨. Das wird ein richtig bunter Run – bleibt dran und schaut zu, wie dieses Rainbow in voller Pracht erstrahlt 🌈🔥.

Licht aus, Drama an – Die Diva stellt auf Blüte um! Die Vegetationsphase ist offiziell beendet, der Vorhang fällt, und das Licht hat auf den 12/12-Rhythmus umgeschaltet. Unsere "Diven" sind nun im Streckwachstum und bereit, ihr volles Potenzial zu zeigen. Wichtige Aktion: Das gesamte DWC System wurde wie aus dem Lehrbuch komplett gereinigt und mit einer frischen Blüte-Nährlösung befühlt. (DWC) läuft mit der Präzision eines Schweizer Uhrwerks. Die Nährlösung ist perfekt balanciert für den neuen Zyklus: • Wassertemperatur: 19 grad Absolut optimal. Die Wurzeln baden im Sauerstoff und sind glücklich (keine Spur von Wurzelfäule-Drama!). • pH-Wert: 5.9 – Ein Volltreffer. Bessere Nährstoffverfügbarkeit geht kaum. • EC-Wert: 1.62 { mS/cm} – Der ideale Startpunkt für die Blüte-Diät. Klima-Kontrolle (Die Wellness-Oase): Auch das Klima im Zelt ist bemerkenswert stabil und blütenfreundlich: • Lufttemperatur (Tag): 25.0^C Perfekte Wohlfühltemperatur für das anstehende Streck-Wachstum. • Luftfeuchtigkeit (RLF): 47% – Ideal für die frühe Blüte. Wir halten das Schimmel-Risiko niedrig, ohne die Pflanzen zu stressen. Zusammenfassung: Alle Weichen sind auf Höchstleistung gestellt. Die technische Basis ist 10/10. Jetzt liegt es an den Pflanzen, in den kommenden Wochen abzuliefern! Wir beobachten das Streckwachstum genau.

4/15 Fighting a soil pH issue. Learned I made some crucial mistakes this entire grow that compounded week after week until a few days ago and I have complete lockout. I was feeding every watering (rookie mistake). I tested runoff and it was at 1800ppm and 3.5 EC, I have done lots of flushing and got soil to an acceptable level of 800ppm and 1.5-1.6 EC. But my soil pH is testing around 4 and will not come up. I have watered with baking soda and it up near 4.5-4.6 now but I have flushed so much over last 3 days I can't stress the plant anymore. Leaves on the bigger plant are rust spotted everywhere and dying off. I will prob lose plant disappointing since it's so far along. I will still yeild something from it but had this not happened this plant would have been great it's super stinky and sticky right now and buds are dense but would have really stacked on and produced had this not happened. Other plant is chugging along its got same soil issues but showing no signs of stress yet. 4/16 Soil pH is still super low on the sick plant and continues to decline, I watered both plants with baking soda water and was able to get the healthier plants soil to 5.8ph. In a last ditch effort to salvage the sick plant, I cut off the fabric pot and transplanted to a planter I had with double the soil capacity. There were no roots stuck to the walls of fabric pot, the base had some but overall I caused very little damage to root system. I watered again with baking soda water and it's now at 4.4ph the fresh soil I put in planter was 6.8 and immediately after watering the new soil tested down to 4. I'm hoping I can get some leaching of buildup from the old soil to the new and get it balanced quickly. I was able to get both plants soil testing around 5.8ph and out of the extreme acidity. There are some spots here and there that are testing a little lower. The healthier plant was showing the slightest spotting all over today, I watered it to about 20% runoff with calmag. Hopefully neither plant get any worse. 4/17 repotting the plant seemed to help tremendously, it really frosted up and seems to have resumed flowering. The other plant seems to be about a 7-10 days behind. 4/20 Bigger plant has really taken on a purple hue, pistils are appx 15-20% turned. Other plant seems to be 7-10 days behind, this is the plant that was over watered in the beginning and was stunted.

Welcome back all, following a week that has been a fairly straight forward seven days or so in Fat Yappa's Garden, as the older Bruce Banners reach day 51, day 44 for the runt of the sisters, planted on the same day but that took a week longer to germinate, and day 42 for the two Wedding Cheesecake's, one growing in Coco Coir, the other in the same living soil as her Bruce Banner Fastbuds cousins. The week began with last weeks humidity issues brought well and truly into hand with the addition of the new 20L dehumidifier from Meaco, specifically designed for the UK weather. However a shift in the aforementioned from the falls dawn of an early spring, to a return to more usual climate conditions for this time of year through things off kilter once again. Despite pulling around 6L of water out the air a day, she was struggling to keep the RH down to around 50% with my central heating returned to its usual position of 18c, but an increase to 20c has taken things back in line, and the humidity has returned to the mid 40's I was aiming for. Humidity concerns during this off period however, and a subsequent inspection below the top layer of the canopy, which resulted in the discovery of quite a lot of whitish, moist growth, prompted a mass defoliation, mostly of the Bruce Banners. I had been performing very light defoliation up until this point, only removing dead/almost dead leaves, and very select leaves from the top of the canopy that were blocking what looked like bud sites, but the lack of light and air getting through past the top layer, together with the fact that now bud sites are far clearer to a novice such as I, lead me to the conclusion that the time was right. Besides the runt, all these plants have not even skipped a beat. The runt has been a bit droopier in her leaves than the others all in all, but I have looked in on them and seen her with leaves pointing up and praying a few times since so I trust all is well. Following the defoliaton on day 47, the plants stuck to their two day watering schedule, but di threatened to need an increase to daily, as day 50 saw waterings a mere 24hrs after the previous day, but feeling the weight of the pots yesterday I elected to wait til 48 hours to water again. The water amounts per plant has also become more erratic than previously, so I have been watering more carefully. Other than that the week has been pretty much plain sailing, and what look like to be some big looking flowers coming up all over the canopy, as all bar the Wedding Cheesecake in living soil are now fully in flower, but she will be there by next week. The Bruce banner I accidentally snapped the top off from the second node down doing LST a few weeks ago seems to be about half a week ahead of the other two of the same age, and trichomes have began to appear on the leaves around the buds. The biggest plant in the tent is still the wedding Cheesecake in Coco coir, as she now stand a metre tall and her top is the same level as the light now. Her size is a concern because it has caused me to neglect her in favour of the other plants, certainly in terms of light, but she doesn't seem to have any more bud sites than the other plants, and for the time being at least, her older cousins are leaving her to shame in this department, but she still has a week to catch up. Lastly, day 39 saw another compost tea feeding, the same recipe as last time. Happy growing everyone, and I will catch you all again next week.

Week 2 Flowering - day 13 of flower - day 69 of life Apple blossom 🌸 is growing well to. Nice branch sides, strong stem, and seems flowering is doing really well to her.

Day91: 72h of darkness and they all be chopped. Harvested and jarred the experiment grow (the plant was rescued then topped) 21g total. Not bad all things considered. I think I can get 100g with the whole grow Chop day: 31/8 day 96. Plants are drying in the tent at 25ºC and 61%RH

Going into week 4. After. A transplant and at the end of week 3 they have seemed to recovered and are doing great. I’ve noticed that they “pray” towards the light so they seem to be happy. Using 1ml of cal mag. When I water. Ph. 6.1 -6.3 of 90%RO 10% tap. Added the second mars hydro on day 25. Update last day of week 4 day 28. The ladies ain't looking too happy. Being hit by I imagine Cal mag deficiency. Even tho I was expecting it because of the RO water. It seems I didn't add the Cal mag fast enough. Hopefully.the 2ml/L or Cal mag. Will fix it. Last watered 250ml each of PH 6.2 water on 8/28

Hey Guys! Super excited this week! I've really been wanting to try growing outdoors, so I built a cheap hoop house! Got most of this stuff for the frame from Lowes under 300$. All the soil products I got from GrowGreenMI. Some really cool people out there. One thing I'm super worried about is drainage. Right now those holes are about 4 feet deep and they've got about 4 inches of water in them already. What's been cautioned is that, eventually, about 2 months in these plants roots will grow and reach the bottom and cause root rot to form. One of the biggest things I was trying to be wary of was causing root rot. This was also the biggest precautionary measure I took when mixing the soil. Adding the extra perlite, coco, and clay pebbles. Best advice right now is to build the soil up on the holes another 16 to 18 inches and possible stick a PVC pipe down to the lowest drainage point of the hole to allow some of that natural occurring water to evaporate. Any advice anyone has on it is welcomed! Making a compost tea for the soil outdoors, will probably put 2 cups in each RDWC bucket as well and let that do it's magic for a day or so before nutrient change. Raised the bed about 14 inches as well! All the seeds sank! Off to a good start! Lol
