Happy New Year!!! Over the past week I did some HST bending on my photos and cut down 2 of the 3 Blackberry’s. The branches are starting to recover and straighten out after the HST now. I still have some issues with pale leaves and a few spots here and there. I’m going to try adding some Dolomite Lime with the next watering and think that should help with the paleness. I’m also going to up the amount of CalMag and Mammoth P to see if that helps with the spotting. I’m not sure if I should see the spotted leaves recover or if the spots will remain. I suspect the spots will remain on the existing leaves regardless of what I do at this point, but hopefully no new spotting will develop. The lights went off before I was done taking pics, so some pics will look a little different. The pics with the lights on I had to color correct, they still look a little more on the yellow side than in reality, but much closer to reality than the pre-color corrected versions. Once the lights went off I turned the flash on for my camera, those pics did not need any color correction. You can see the differences in the pics of all plants, the first 2 are color corrected with the lights on, the last 2 are taken with a flash and no color correction. Also all close up pics of the Critical+ are with the lights off and flash on. I read several books on cannabis over the past few days, some good, some not so much. One that I liked was “Marijuana Cultivation Reconsidered: The Science and Techniques For Huge Indoor Yields” by Read Spear. This book is available on Amzon’s Kindle Unlimited service, which costs $9.99/month, but they offer a free 30 day trial (which is what I’m using at the moment). Reed’s book is broken down into 3 sections, the first and third go fairly deep into the science behind growing, he does a pretty good job at breaking it down in easy to understand terms, but I had to read several sections 2 or 3 times to really get it (or just move on with as much understanding as I could digest). The second section is the nuts and bolts of growing. Most was a review but there were several topics he touched on I hadn’t thought of in a while. And again its well written. He also offers the section only in a separate book called “Small Spaces, Big Yields”. If you are not interested in going deeper into the science behind growing, “Small Spaces, Big Yields” is what I would recommend (if interested in reading books on cannabis). I took some notes while reading and I’m going to add some of these notes in my dairy updates over the next few weeks. This week I’m going to include a note on electrical, this should be a fairly basic concept, but it is super important IMO… “Electrical Items In a sealed grow room or in a tent, you will have water pooling on the floor from time to time. There is no avoiding this. Mop it up when you see it, and never put your electrical gear directly on the floor. Never. Not even for a moment. In fact, let me stress this point in bold capital letters. ALL ELECTRICAL GEAR MUST BE MOUNTED SECURELY ON A WALL OR TENT POLE.” -Read Spear I’ll add more did bits like this in my diaries over the upcoming weeks. If anyone has any good book recommendations please let me know in the comments. I’m looking for books that might not be as popular as the ones by Jorge Cervantes or Ed Rosenthal (I’ve read those). I did just order “True Living Organics” by The Rev which I’m looking forward to reading. But I’m looking for more. I really want to step it up and learn as much as possible. Your comments, feedback and recommendations are very much appreciated! Until next time, Happy Growing! Stay Positive! And have an amazing 2019!!!

Chugging closer to the end. Looks like she added one more inch this past week. Impressive. It’s going to be a hot week- so I’m going to have to be extra careful with the humidity.

I did get some nasty burns, but as you can see on the last picture they look way better now. They seem to grow fine. Today on the 22th i watered them for the first time after watering them 11 days ago while putting them in the 2l pots. (500-600ml each plant) The cripple still is slower but it seems like it also recovered. On the 22th the Special Queen #1 seed did germinate and on the 23th the root did come out so i did put it in the 2l Pot, but this time without Bio Tabs, i only did use mycotrex (2g), the rest will come with the 11l pot then. I think i over watered it a little bit since the new leaves are hanging a little bit (the first leaves did hang from the beginning so i doubt that is water related with those) I also noticed today for the first time, when i open my tent it does already smell pretty tasty. Didn't thought it would happen that fast. Also i already learned a lot. Even tho i tried my best to inform myself from the beginning, i made many mistakes which i will never do again. You can prepare yourself as you want, you will still have some failures and that is fine. So im not ashamed of my little plants by now. I will make them survive and a great final result. Looking forward to the next weeks. /edit Last day of the week. There were Roots at the bottom of two pots, so i decided to plant them into the final 11l Pots, i also added biotabs (little bit less since both had some of it from the beginning. Everything went fine. The next days i will give them slowly more ppfd and next week i think i will top them and also tie them a little bit down.

I put the seed into glass of water for 18hrs, after that directly into potting soil. after 3-4 days they usually show the head. Lets hope she gets as good as the first one :D

Día 19. Las Tropicana han reaccionado muy bien. Aproveché para hacerle LST a una y HST a la otra. Las Polaris estaban revegetando, así que esos las demoró. Pero ya empezaron a estirar. Además a una le tuve que cortar la rama principal y dejar 2 laterales, dado que estaba muy maltrecha. Mantuve la solución nutritiva de la semana pasada y la voy a cambiar hoy o mañana seguramente. Voy a tener que esperar para pasarlas a floración, ya que tengo una mudanza en unas semanas. Así que la floración va a ser post mudanza.

📅 Week 10 – Day 69 / FLO35 🌞 Temp: 26–28°C 💦 RH: 60% 💥 PPFD: 720 µmol/m²/s 🌬️ VPD: ~1.3 Nothing major this week – the flowers are stacking up nicely considering the conditions we have during this summer run. It's warm during the day and warm at night, so metabolism isn’t running at its best. A lot depends on the weather now, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for cooler nights to help things along. Stay wild – and keep growing 🌱

Le hice budwashing o lavado de cogollos ya que estaban muuuuuy atacados de esta ultima semana por arañas rojas del capullo.. no ha tenido creo yo ni una semana entera de treguas esta planta, pero bueno, pese a todo la he podido cosechar y relativamente bien. Hay fotos en las que se ven las telarañas cubriendo a saco los cogollos, pero luego subo fotos y video de los cogollos colgando del tendedero para quitarle el exceso de humedad al sumergirlos en diferentes soluciones con agua y ahí ya si se ven limpios, igualmente cuando sequen y manicure les haré mas fotos.

Gorilla Jealousy F1 has been growing good. I dud hst the tops today. Along with some more lollipopping, and some light defoliation on top. I didn't want to do much more as all of this was stressful combined. She is starting to shift more into a blooming stage now. The stretching should be close to being done. Hopefully everything keeping going good.

Bienvenidos a la semana #4 Día #25 (05/06) Salir al exterior ha vuelto sedientas a todas las plantas (también hay mucha evaporación por la parte superior del substrato) Se riega con 250 ml de agua con Bio-Grow, Bio-Bloom y Top Max de Biobizz, ya que todas las plantas han empezado la prefloración Día #26 (06/06) Las Orion F1 no están reaccionando bien al LST. El crecimiento está estancado. No se si he empezado demasiado pronto o esta strain no lo tolera bien. Decido deshacerlo y dejarlas crecer libremente Tal vez retomarlo más tarde cuando empiecen a crecer las ramas laterales... Decido añadir 2 cm de substrato "nuevo" en cada maceta porque el nivel ha bajado demasiado. Entiendo que esto también ayudará a la estabilidad ☺️ Dia #27 (07/06) Todas las plantas han tenido que volver al interior por la inestabilidad meteorológica Crystal Candy XL Auto está creciendo como un cohete! Hay que ajustar el LST todos los días. Ya empieza a parecer una araña! Me encanta cuando veo estas configuraciones en los LST de los diarios y lo estoy consiguiendo 😁 Royal Bluematic también está creciendo muy rápido Northern Lights está algo más lenta. Espero que despegue cuando llegue al stretch Las Orion F1 han reaccionado bien al LST deshecho 😂 Día #29 (09/06) Hace un día soleado y las plantas vuelven al exterior 😋 Ha hecho un día muy cálido y todas las plantas están "secas" Se riegan todas con 250 ml de agua con ph ajustado excepto Northern Lights, que al estar en maceta de tela y más grande (15 litros), se riega con 500 ml de agua ph ajustada El riego siempre alterno sólo agua ph ajustado y agua con es con Bio-Grow, Bio-Bloom y Top Max de Biobizz y ajuste de pH Crystal Candy XL Auto y Royal Bluematic siguen creciendo rápido. Muy rápido en comparación con Orion F1 y Northern Lights que van más lentas... Día #30 (10/06) Hoy ha habido una sorpresa muy especial Crystal Candy XL Auto se está volviendo morada / púrpura! 😍 Al principio pensé que lo había visto mal, porque no he visto ningún diario en que esta strain se vuelva púrpura, pero la mía lo está haciendo! 😁 Estoy muy contento porque siempre he querido cultivar una variedad morada! 😁 Además, ha entrado oficialmente en la etapa de floracion Royal Bluematic sigue creciendo rápido y adaptandose estupendamente al LST Orion F1 parece que está cogiendo algo de velocidad Northern Lights sigue su crecimiento lento. A ver si se acelera! Día #31 (11/06) Esta ha sido la última semana de vegetativo. A ver si las que van más lentas aumentan el tamaño con el stretch! Esto es todo por esta semana Gracias por leerme!

Flowers coming in slowly but surely there's a large difference in size between the lst plant and the others.

Day 57 - plant 1 still going great, stretch over, building bud mass. Plant 2 also doing well, looks about a week behind #1, and the leaf discoloration on upper fan leaves hasn’t abated. I’ll look into that more this week. Day 58 - drunken “deer gnaw” defoliation of the canopy fan leaves. Day 60 - Houston, we have a problem. Vent fan isn’t venting. Will have to research and/or swap out. Humidity through the roof. Bad timing! Day 61 - fixed extraction fan. Knocked tube off of inlet somehow 🙄
