Sour diesel and northern lights are ready to be chopped. I will put them in the basement in the dark for at least a day before I cut them down. The clone from the expert haze had to be tossed because I found spider mites on it and then found them on my expert haze plant outdoors. I shouldn’t have brought the clone inside, oops I will not be making another clone of this plant. I have found caterpillars all over everything and didn’t want to spray the buds with pesticides so every day a couple of times a day I would remove them. They eat a lot so I don’t have as much production at harvest. I will be more aggressive with the expert haze with pest control.

She grew 10cm this week. Day 42 - I cut off a few huge leaves to allow better light penetration. This is the last day of 20/4 lighting. From now on it's 12/12.

As week 5 came to a close and we move into week 6 of flowering, I am having really high hopes for the end result. The buds started to get some light orange hairs which is really nice and they are really starting to thicken up! Towards the end of week 5 the plants started to show early signs of burn on their leaf tips, so I started the week 6 feeding a little early. In week 6 we bring the EC down quite a bit as we get into the late stages of flower. I also recently switch to measuring with EC vs PPM for ease and accuracy. Also at the end of week 5 I did a calibration on my coco for each plant as week 6 nutrients are much lighter. Coco Calibration Method 1. Mix up nutrients. 2. Water plants as normal and measure runoff. 3. If runoff EC is not at or close to the inflow EC a. Water more and keep measuring runoff until the runoff is at or close to the inflow EC 4. Do steps 1-3 for all plants (One at a time) Tips: - I use a shop vacuum that I stick the end in the bottom of the pot saucers and leave it on while I water so it sucks the runoff as soon as it drains out the pots. Then I measure, empty and water again until I hit my targets) For this calibration, I ended up using around 6 gallons of nutrient solution. Watering technique used is to measure runoff at every watering and make sure we are staying as close as possible to the inflow EC. It does not matter how much water you need to put through the pots to get to the desired EC on runoff as that is a benefit of Coco. My main goal is to keep my runoff in check and the plants seem to do better than I have ever grown before! The smell off these ladies are amazing and strong. I don't have a carbon filter and enjoy her smells and aromas all day long as my desk is right next to my tent. There were no issues in Week 5. Plants continue to look amazing and the buds are continuing to bud up and structure very nice! I'm excited to see the end result after the ripening and flush stages. Also the colors that are soon to come! Stay tuned! ______________ We are 5 days into week 6 and the buds continue to grow fatter and fatter on a daily basis. I'm really dialing in my EC and making sure to mix it at 1.1 EC and making sure my runoff is from 1.1-1.4. I started playing with the mix as I am getting used to the grow schedule and how the base nutrients effect the EC. I have found that doing 50% of the low strength calendar hits me right at my target EC and I don't have to dilute my mixture after. The smells continue to be strong and fill my house up. The weight is starting to make the colas lean over which is nice because it's opening up the canopy to get more light in. I'm very excited to see what the buds look like in week 7 and then we are on to ripening stage, flush, and then finally harvest!!

Well looks like these girls are coming to an end! Around 80-90% of trichomes are cloudy, some sugar leaves are starting to get some ambers as well so I’m going to be semi-flushing with microbes and molasses for the bennies over the next couple weeks until chop! Soon after the first flush, the colors started to pop, especially on the leaves! I have also noticed the smell has really picked up, but it’s almost like a ripe fruit smell. Based on the smell I can tell these girls are getting ready for the end of their life cycle. I’m planning to chop soon after week 9 but I will allow the girls to sit in 24-48hr dark period before I do so.

Hey y'all! This is how the girls look at the end of flower -week 2! I tried my best to let them grow out but I did some light defol throughout the week, mainly on large leaves covering bud sites and to help with circulation on permanent marker. Most of the plants are now touching the screen and branches can be tucked/manipulated as needed. I began taking clones to help with canopy management and for genetic retention if they end up being great! So far 6 of 13 have been cloned. I have moved on from Jacks 321 and will now add MKP to the mix and adjust the formula accordingly (2-2-1.2-2). The plants were fed this flowering formula yesterday (Sunday) I am excited to see how these plants look at the end of this week. I was nervous going into this grow as this is pretty much my first grow of my adult life. I am still pretty nervous as I enter bloom and there are some things i would do differently (like this many plants in a small space...) Thank you for everybody who has engaged with my diary so far! Any tips and feedback welcome! See you guys next week!

Checkout my Instagram @smallbudz to see the Small budget grow setup for indoor use, low watt, low heat, low noise, step by step. 06/02/2020 - Gave her 1,5l of tap water, checked the trichomes still transparent almost turning cloudy maybe a few more day!! 08/02/2020 - Showing her first amber trichomes going to harvest in 1 to 2 days !

Fourth week they have grown considerably and when they start to twist due to the sun I have put a stick tied to a rope to make them go higher, I hope for advice in the comments.( HABLO CASTELLANO ASI QUE NO TEMAIS EN ESCRIBIR LOS QUE HABLAN MI IDIOMA)

They are growing really well with the steady waterings in the small pots. I will be transplanting into 5 gal pots tomorrow (day 23) with my regular soil mixed with more GHS bio feed. Love how easy its been to get these looking this well with this nutrient line. I am actually using it on one outdoor 25 gallon pot (no journal for that) and that plant is growing HUGE already over 6 ft tall. Day 22- No water Day 23- Watered at 6.5 ph Day 24-25 no water Day 26- Watered 6.5 ph Day 27- No Water Day 28- 6.5ph Watering. Weekly Notes: - Transplanted into 5 gal with 4 gals worth of good soil mix along with 45 grams of BioFeed (each plant) **took a video of how I mixed and added these nutrients and uploaded to album** - Topped both plants! lets see what happens. Plant 2 has better structure and is already getting good growth going after the topping. WP1 is a little slower behind but still developing into a real nice plant. - Uploaded a pic of a Hindu Kush landrace Potted in 35 gallons of soil with 3 gs/L *BioGrow* and a Carolina Reaper pepper plant planted with the same conditions / ratio . LOOKING GREAT!! - Installed a new automatic irrigation system for both my tents. VERY stoke about this new upgrade. 100% de-chlorinated ph'd water going into all my plants from now on . Its a new technique im trying opposed to feeding with nutrients. I make my own soil mixes now so I do not need anything more than the BioFeeds as boosters for my already decent soil. I like to think the plants are VERY happy right now because they are a beautiful green and are growing so steady and strong.

420 Fastbuds Week 2 Blackberry Auto What up what up. Weekly update on these girls. They have had some great growth showing no real signs of issues. Still watering about a liter daily with just well water out of the drip system. I can't wait to see how they'll do this next week. Until then Happy Growing

In der achten Woche erreicht diese Kreuzung aus White Runtz und Spritzer (Seeds of Anarchy, via Wunderbohnen) eine beeindruckende Dichte. Das Aroma ist mittlerweile voll ausgeprägt: Ein süßer, fruchtiger Duft nach reifen Beeren und weichen Bonbons vermischt sich mit einer eleganten, floralen Frische, die den gesamten Raum erfüllt. Tatsächlich hatte ich vor einigen Tagen schon festgestellt, dass sie irgendwie 'runtzig' duftet – ein Zeichen für das komplexe Terpenprofil. Die Buds sind inzwischen so massiv und schwer geworden, dass die stabilen Äste unter der enormen Last sichtlich gefordert sind. Obwohl die Struktur bisher hervorragend standgehalten hat, wird es nun Zeit, die Zweige zusätzlich zu stützen – ein erstklassiges Zeichen für den Ertrag am Ende dieses Testgrows. Die Harzschicht überzieht die kolossalen Blütenstände wie ein frostiger Teppich und kündigt die nahende Ernte an.
