Buds are not as big as I'd hoped going into the 6th week of flowering. Not sure if it's got anything to do with it, but it's been quite warm this week. It's cooling down next few days so hopefully can get the temp back down below 30c with the lights on. A couple more of the lower leaves have yellowed and dropped off, and now there's a clear canopy area between the leaves at the base of the colas and medium, which should help with airflow. There's been no noticeable vertical growth beyond colas getting taller so I've dialed the biogrow back a bit more, and will probably stop using it all together from next week onwards.

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** Ok big update this week, I finally edited the footage of the lights and got their unboxing photos processed, this took way longer then expected and should have been done on germination or week 1 entry but better late then never. You can really see how the lights shine in comparison to my older ones. The brightness of the leds is next level and I can use their V1 spectrum from seed to harvest. Its a great balance of red and blue in a full spectrum light. The medic grow mini sun 2 is a all purpose light that I can see myself getting lots of use out of in the future. Plus they fit in my tent just as snug as my last ones and that's a big thing for me, I don't like dim corners. I am using the lights at 80% dim level. this will be raised to 100% when they enter flower :D First time useing lights I can dim. they also have an onboard timer attached to them, I will be playing aorund with this to see if its something I want to use in the coming weeks, I all ready have all the external timers so I can see how this is a useful tool for anyone starting off without them. On top of all this I also transplanted my plants into their final pots. they went from a .7-.8L to a 2gal or 7.5L, all the root balls on the plants where perfect, nice white roots, maybe a bit compacted for the size and might explain why I am having some issues with them but healthy none the less. I think they will not start to grow a bit better and I will see less issues moving forward. I still have yet to get a new PH pen but I am blindly guessing the PH by adding 2 drops of phosphoric acid ph down per 1gal of feed solution. it seems to be working out just fine. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ + https://seedstockers.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled + https://www.facebook.com/SeedstockersBarcelona/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow + https://twitter.com/seedstockersb Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ + https://www.instagram.com/seedstockers_seeds YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ + https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GiFYrIWeNtwtXjcivCmfw Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow + https://growdiaries.com/grower/seedstockersofficial https://growdiaries.com/seedbank/seedstockers

Week 9, Day 63, Day 19 of Flower. Once again all is going well, she is doing nicely, but smaller compared to the Purple Kush and Northern Lights. After this coming week 4 of Flower I am going to switch to only KoolBloom 2-45-28 for 2 to 3 weeks at a 1/4 tsp/gallon. Any suggestions or comments?

SUMMARY: Its finally time to start the flush and I'm aiming to flush for 2 weeks. I started the flush on day 95 flushing with tap water straight from the hose. I’ve heard you’re supposed to flush with 3x the container volume, however that would be around 57 litres for a 5 gallon pot which seems absurd. I didn’t record the amount but I took my time and flushed with at least 30 litres. I am now continuing to water twice daily until harvest aiming for 20-30% runoff each time. I water once of a morning around 11:00 giving roughly 2-2.5L and again of an evening around 18:00 giving a further 2.5-3L. DAY 93 ----------- Friday 26th March 18:30 I fed Jesus 3L of late bloom nutes which produced 740ml runoff (25%). [26°C/48%] DAY 94 ----------- Saturday 27th March 18:30 I fed Jesus its last ever feeding, 3L of late bloom nutes which produced 560ml runoff (19%). [26°C/48%] DAY 95 ----------- Sunday 28th March 18:30 I flushed Jesus with tap water straight from the hose. I’ve heard you’re supposed to flush with 3x the container volume, however that would be around 57 litres for a 5 gallon pot which seems absurd. I didn’t record the amount but I took my time and flushed with at least 30 litres.

9/16 Day 8: transplanted 3 of them into 1 gallon plastic pots. they werent very rooted but the roots they did have were healthy and thick. will transplant the others as soon as i can. Up potted about half of the tent. i need to set up another tent 9/18 day 10 transplanted the last 2 plants into 1 gallon pots. im reusing soil with them and i dont normally do that. hoping that there arent any random issues to pop up. 9/19 finally numbered the plant's. #1 is the one that's looking more sativa leaning. she has longer petioles or fan leaf stems. Longer, thinner leaves and has stood out from the rest from the very beginning. im going to use the terms indica/ sativa and hybrid as generalized terms. on the other end #5 is super short and tightly spaced nodes. has a more even indica style look to her. #'s 2-4 i have noted as being "hybrid" as in they look to be a mix of both and not on one end or the other such as #1 and #5 are. also onr of the hybrid ones has super thick indica maple leaf style leaves that stands out as well. these are more so for my notes and i understand that these are all technically hybrids 60/40 sativa/indica i believe.

Weekly update: August 6th Looking great, major spurt of growth on both girls, #1 (sativa leaning girl) had major final stretch to end off stretch in 3 days (hopefully). And #2 (stockier indica leaning pheno) has had a big increase in flower size in 3 days which is promising, and is also producing a very sweet and tropical fruity gas smell, this is TCP after all! Oh yea and I’m running about 1700 center 500 outer ppfd and tapering down if I see anything but nothing so far all good nice genetics, may drop in the next week even if no signs or symptoms, to prevent and not be too greedy. Now for the not so good… been getting 10% runoff almost every feed, but my runoff of #1 was 3500ppm and pH 4.5 and #2 at 5000ppm and pH 4.5. Been giving around 850 ppm input at pH 6.0, never went over 1000ppm input. So I have to correct with 25% increase in feed volume, 300-400ppm input at pH 7.0 for what I infer to be 2-3 feeds until runoff ppm is significantly lower, and pH is at least 5.5. UPDATE Aug 8: To address the toxic/locked-out root-zone I did a regular feed with runoff (1.5 gal total volume per pot @ 820ppm bloom focus), runoff consisted of pH 4.2-4.5 and 4000-6000ppm... OUCH. I then fertigated with 0.5 gal plain pH 6.5-7 dechlorinated tap water each. I repeated this a total of 3 times, to which the last flush had 3 ml/gal cal-mag. final runoff ppm @ 1000-2000, pH 5.3-5.5. To conclude, I more than likely wasn't achieving enough runoff per scheduled feed, and did not cycle a few plain pH adjusted waterings. I had almost the same thing happen last run with autos, except they were showing signs of lockout, these photo girls are not. I must do a regular watering every 3 feeds, achieve 20% runoff with high ppm feeds, and 15% runoff at least with mild to moderate ppm's. Lesson learned, I hope I get a full run in the future without hiccups like this. UPDATE Aug 9: Big thanks to @00110001001001111O for suggesting i omit the light hanger and hang from the carabiner, I thought I was out of vertical space until this was pointed out. Check him out, he always has well informed answers to grow questions: https://growdiaries.com/grower/00110001001001111o

Flower development definitely set back right from the beginning with extreme light intensity reaching 1650 ppfd before corrected. Never fully took off I don’t think. Midway through week 7 started to slowly dial back the intensity from 900 at tops to 650 ppfd. This is a 9.5-10 week strain. Using fish shit to keep things ramped up, also Bokashi Bran and worm casting. Also mixing in Gaia seaweed extract 0-0-17 with the fish shit. Not a whole lot more needed that the soil and top dressings doesn’t already have, if anything at all. I just like to give it that extra kick. I had completely wiped out those pesky fungus gnats and future offspring before flower, but they came back after top dressing and adding more soil. They come in the bag soil, and while I was on holidays for 10 days they came back and I wasn’t on top of the new wave of those dirty bastards. Just about got them cleared out again with the use of nematodes and sticky traps.

The plants seemed to recover very well this week from the nutrient burn last week. I did a defoliation on some of the odd nodes of the Dominican Republic to free up some wasted energy. The ppm was still reading a little high on each so I didn't feed them and just flushed them back to appropriate values. My grow light was finally cleared through customs and I added it to supplement the light issues which the plants seemed to respond very nicely too. Halfway through the week I applied some foliar spray and it really improved the colour and health of the plants. Lastly I topped each plant to resume progress on the mainlining and they should each reach 4 healthy lines within the new week.

I'm spending a few days earlier than expected in bloom! The plants look ready to me. I set my LED's to 50% which is about 800-850 PPFD I was still bothered by the pythium and I think it will bother me on the rest of the crop, but we keep it in cage with preventive treatments, evolution to follow closely... I stay at an EC of 1.9 Osmosis water : EC 0 Root rot X 1ml/L : EC 0.2 Sensi Bloom A and B 3ml/L : EC 1.7 TOTAL EC 1.9 The temperature of the water is ideal, 20°, thanks to the more clement outside temperatures. I'm not going to hide, I can't wait to restart the run to start a session without pythium 😅, I'm going to finish quietly and I'm thinking about the next strain I'm going to put for the next run, I won't do any more multistrain with this too complicated system. I will possibly add air stones inside each pot to have more oxygenation. For the strain I hesitate between : Sour diesel Riri Cut Pianono Rico Cut A preference that you want to see in the next culture journal?

Well, I suppose it was my ambition that influenced all the soil amendments that I added. Just a little too much it turns out. So I figured the only solution to prevent the plant from sitting in all that strong stuff was to transplant into a bigger pot. Her roots have developed fast and she had created a new root ball with the 2.3 L pot. So I ended up going with the big 4 gallon. I hope this will correct the problem. I also added charcoal to the new media to help balance out the concentrations. So for now I will just be watering with plain water or maybe a CalMag water here or there

Hi everyone 😁 Welcome back in another week update! Thank you all for this amazing support on this bananas journey💚💚💚 Uploading and updating each week content on daily bassis so please revisit this diary if week not over yet. So far all going great. Girls looking very healthy and happy. Due to my short trip had to leave my 🍌💜👊 girls unsupervised for 3 days. Was stunned when opened my cabinet on the Dec 5th. Athena stretched like crazy. Good 3 inches. She better slow down as not much roof space left for her. May tie some taller branches to netting if necessary. Introducing blooming nutes for the first time this week on December 6th at smaller dosage and on the second watering as listed. Week 8 Dec 4 - Dec 10 Dec 5 Leaves tucking Dec 6 Heavier selective defoliation on both girls. Athena fully lolipopped and Xena at 75%. Watered with 8 ltr beetwen both with perfect runoofs PH 6.4. Girls were very thirsty 🤤 Dec 7-8 Just enjoying how my girls developing. Frost has landed and they are start showing colours. All is looking great. Dec 9 Second watering for this week 7 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH 6.4 Even with so much difrence in size of my 🍌💜👊 girls it seems that they are drinking my juice almost equally. Dec 10 Applied selective defoliation and tied 3 tallest branches of Athena to netting to avoid any potential burns on these beautiful baby colas. It's the end of the week! Thank you all again for such a great support, all the likes, dm's, comments and follows 💚💜💚💜 Stay tuned for coming week update 😁✌️💚

End of the first week, we feel victorious Even tho we had our ups and down. I had an accident while moving them, almost fell down with the plants, thank God they didn't suffer and I didn't fall but I almost had a heart attack!!! Phew!!! Anyhow, we built a greenhouse for indoor growing since we noticed they were suffering from hot temperatures while being outdoor after 10.00am, weather gets real hot and they still too young to take that kind of sunlight. Well around here temperatures can raise above 40 degrees and that's way too much. Now we have them in a very comfortable zone, last picture can give you a heads up bout what's going on, we planned to upload more soon! Beginning of the week #2 Starts now! Guys feel free to comment Any advise, any tips, it's more than welcome, we are new in the world of growing cannabis but we have a heart for mary Jane so help us have her comfortable at home so we can taste sweet Buds ^^! Day 8 She's happy with her new greenhouse INDOOR CFL while sun is way too hot AC/on all day plus Sunbathing early morning and late noon Until sun is gone then they go to CFL Until they have to go to sleep and rest Until next day of course! Day 9 Looking good tho, decided to feed her first meal, 0.4ml/1 gallon of water and added only 200ml per plant followed by 200/300ml.plain water with a little runoff so they can get all nutrients in good shape Day 10 Went outside for some sunlight at the rooftop early morning Day 11 Sunbathing her around 4.20 until sun is gone so she gets extra light Day 12 Looking great I'm in love! Day 13 Decided to change her pot for a bigger one and also readjusted her feeding schedule to once per week, since she only had her first meal at week #2 and only 171ppm, since she's doing so good and almost the start of the third week, today she got her second meal and its going to be like this until next Sunday. Guys she's bout 3 weeks tomorrow after 6pm so I'm planing at the very end of this 3rd week increase her food to 5ml. Today she got 1.5ml of Flora Nova grow / mix in 1 gallon of water thats 314ppm. Followed by 200ml.of plain water and little runoff Let's see what are the results she gives us this week, any comments, tips or advise is more than welcome!! DAY 14 They are doing good - usual light schedule Not much has changed DAY 15 She's looking awesome guys Thank you for taking the time to read my diary :)

📆 Week 8, 24-30 June 2024 24 June - Defoliated 25-30 June - Observed and let the plant grow. 📑 Defoliated Pablo. Well, she successfully smothered out the main apex and topped herself. I gave it the final pinch to complete the process. Pablo is one of most densely packed plants I’ve grown. She is beautiful and lush, but she requires a little more attention than most. 🍶 24, 27 June nutrient solution changed 🍽️ 24, 27 June feeding schedule updated 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient solution EC 2.8 at 74 degrees F 🔆 Light power at 80%, DLI 40 canopy coverage at 12hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

04/09/2023 Still no fertilizer, I'm just removing the yellow leaves that are falling off almost on their own. I should probably harvest them at different times based on their trichomes, but I'll have to dry them in my growbox, so I'll harvest them all at once, probably next week. I'm checking the trichomes every day, and the trichomes on the sugar leaves on plant number 1 are already starting to turn brown since 02/09

2/10: I watered today with about 3/4 gallon each, plus cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, a little open sesame, and their final dose of endoboost. The short one is budding up nicely, but the taller one is still stretching. The short one looks to be considerably more indica than the other. 2/11: Wife home sick today....postponing construction project to raise the lights. 2/12: Today, I tackled the project to raise my ceiling another foot. In addition to that project, I installed and hooked up my new AC Infinity 6" intake fan. It's pulling in fresh air from the soffit vent on the eave of the attic, and currently feeding the garden with 46f fresh air. I'm able to easily maintain daytime temps in the lower 70f's now. I am able to drive the nighttime temps as low as I want. The only issue is that the outdoor RH varies quite a bit, so I ordered a 30-pint dehumidifier to put in the top of the closet. I sprayed everybody with boomboom spray to try and mitigate the light burn damage that is likely to ensue. 2/13: The taller one is still stretching a little bit, but the 2-footer is just budding up. 2/14: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, cal-mag, signal, bembe, humic acid, and I switched over from Open Sesame to Beastie Bloomz. Raised the lights another couple of inches. I did some training on them and defo'd a little bit. 2/15: Installed the new dehumidifier and rigged the continuous drain on it...works great. 2/16: I rotated the edge plants and removed some old leaves. I added another 22w 3000k 4' bar light under the canopy. 2/17: I rearranged the garden and defoliated a little bit. That's it for week 8-
