10. November Neue mainline schnitte plus LST per klammern an der Cookie gelato Cookies Gelato 26 Tage alt Tropimango 23 Tage alt Runtz 12 Tage alt. Lichtwechsel wenn die runtz 4 Wochen alt ist, bzw die Cookies gelato 6 Wochen alt ist. Tag 50 Lichtwechsel? Quelle YouTube Video 12. November. Cookies gelato hat an den beiden oberen Mains neue mainlinefrisur bekommen. Die unteren Mains haben noch alles behalten dürfen. Das topping steht bald an. Tropimango reagiert gut auf LST. Blätter weiterhin noch krank, allerdings nicht mehr so dramatisch Die Runtz wächst und macht ihr Ding. Die wachstumsphase hat nun sicher begonnen: Stiel wird hölzern. Runtz wurde getoppt. (Vor einem Monat +1 ist die Cookie und die Tropimango zum keimen gelegt worden) 13. November Runtz wirkt gestresst und stagniert im Wachstum wegen des toppings. Besprühen mit Eisen hat sie auch aus der Ruhe gebracht. Tropimango wächst. Immer noch kranke Blätter vorhanden, aber wenige. Cookies gelato wächst. 14. November Die runtz wächst wieder!! Eventuell ist mir unfreiwillig ein fimming schnitt gelungen? Tropimango und gelato auch alles wie bisher. Begleitpflanzen (weißklee&Kerbel) hinzugefügt Cookies gelato ist 30 Tage alt Tropimango ist 27 Tage alt Runtz ist 16 Tage alt 15. November Cookies gelato wurde zum zweiten Mal getopt an allen Trieben. Sie wird’s schon wegstecken 16. November Topping gut überstanden. 👍 sind jetzt 8 Mains. Wachstum fühlt sich jetzt mega langsam an. Aber ich bin auch ungeduldig af 😅 Tropimango weiterhin kranke Blätter. Hab leider keine Idee woran es liegen könnte. Runtz scheint tatsächlich neue Triebe an der schnittstelle zu entwickeln 🎉🤝. Archivement unlocked. Ich kann jetzt den fim schnitt.🤝💪 Alle drei Pflanzen haben ordentlich Wasser bekommen. 17. November Habe feststellen können, dass der Wasserbedarf doch deutlich höher war als ich vermutet hatte. Alle drei reagieren sehr positiv auf die erhöhte Menge Wasser. 🚿 Ich hätte wohl großzügiger sein dürfen in den vergangenen Tagen. Habe der Cookies gelato einen Edgar mit taperfade geschnitten (Mainlining). Eventuell habe ich an den unteren beiden unteren Mains ein Blatt Zuviel abgeschnitten? Ich werd’s im verlaufe der nächsten Tage sehen. Der unfreiwillige fimming schnitt bei der Runtz war wohl „unsauber“. Einer der beiden Triebe ist dominanter als der andere. Vermutlich liegt es am schrägen Schnitt. Tropimango macht tropimangosachen. Weiterhin mit kranken Blättern. 🤝.

Day 22 - Didnt have a time to make a Day 20 due to my sickness but hey im back guys dont worry ! :) - So at the first point, changed the pH of the water with nutes to 6.3 for better CalMag absorbing - I know very well about light being too close problem, girls are bushy, not very stretchy. Will solve the problem in 5 days (will move them into bigger box) - Applied foliar spray with 1ml/l of CalMag and 1ml/l Rhizo - Deficiency is still spreading throughout the older leaves, i know im losing some leaf mass right now. Trying my best but i cant move the light (problem causer) further... - Going to transplant them to a 10l/2gal pots in 4 days after moving them to a bigger tent. - wishing them ladies all the luck i have to survive the next days without too much burn... Note: If you have some idea how could i dim the light a little, let me know ! :) Day 28 - So, moved them to a bigger box. I finally could. (120x120x200) - Calcium deficiency has spread almost to all plants in the small box but it looks like IT stopped after moving them And moving the Light further, finally... - Light Is now 50cm above the tops which IS appearing to be 17000 Lux (used Phone luxmeter so its probably not perfect) - every 2 days spraying them with 1ml/l calmag And 1ml/l rhizotonic before the nighttime - flushed every plant with 2l nute mix ph 6.0 EC 1.6 due to not buffered Coco coir (really pi**Ing me off). Hopes it made the nutes evenly spread - outflow came 5.8 pH and 1.4 EC - Fimmed at day 25, looks like they didnt noticed much but the lower branches started to grow heavily. (i know i shouldnt due to health of the plants but better than topping right) -wish them luck in next days, theyre not the biggest but they seem very strong (thanks to team Humboldt seeds :)) - if everything goes right from now on ill switch them to 12/12 at the end of week 6

Filling out the trellis net. Looks like another 2-3 weeks until I flip the ladies. Using SST’s, LABS and natural inputs for this grow. I have made some mistakes in the past using Organics, but have figured out HOW to use them for an entire grow. The vegetative state, I have never had a problem with. The transition into the first 3 weeks is when I have had the most issues. After a little research and testing, I finally have a basic blue print of how to feed plants in flower for 10-12 weeks now or shorter. Mark Bowell from Perfect Gardens on YouTube and Mr Canucks Grow from Canada are my largest information inputs. Final Thank you to Mr McGooz for keeping me in the know. 10-11: yes, some of the stalks are turning purple. This is not due to phosphorus, magnesium, or any deficiency. It is due to the light being too intense for the plants. I am at the max distance and running the light at 30% ( it’s a 600 watt 🤣🤣). Soooo yeah, that purple is going to stay for a bit. Purple with other leaf discoloration or senescence IS a problem, purple stems with NO leaf issues isn’t serious issue. Cant it be fixed? We are going to find out….Photosynthesis Plus will be on hand in the next 5-6 days. This permits the plant to USE more of the photons ( yes, I have carbon in my media). This should minimize the purple and allow me to UP THE WATTS 🗣️🗣️ 10-14: spoke to my “guide” and we made the decision to go ahead and flower these ladies. We saw how much stretch there is to be had and realized we are currently filling the trellis by 75%. We are estimating the entire 4x4 area to be completely filled. I defoliated and pruned the smaller sites off the lower areas of the plant. Not quite lollipopping, just selectivity choosing sites to keep and bones that will get in the way. For transition I am using a ratio of 1:1:1 on NPK’s to ease the flip. The ppm’s will be between 750-800. Once we reach early flower, we switch the NPK’s to 1:3:2 ( flower girl by Dr Earth OR Fish bone meal and langbenite). I switch each feeding between the two for 5-6 weeks. At week 7 we switch to 0:3:3 ( seabird guano and Langbeinite) at 500 ppm’s. Week 8 the same feed. Week 9 kelpseaweed/water Only ( these are 10 week cultivars). Thank you for taking the time to read. 10-16 😍😍😍 Plants are starting to show deficiencies!!! Yes, normally one freaks out 😂😂😂 The slight deficiency is a sign that I can go ahead and start: The Flowering Cycle. When using Organics, you have to use your eyes because nothing is specific. Meaning: you have to see when the amendments are running out to A: Top Dress B. Make compost teas. We are going the compost tea route for flower. I made a video showing exactly what I use. The ratio is 5-5-5 ( yes earlier we were going to use 2-2-2, but we found out there is no calcium or magnesium in the all purpose mix by Dr Earth…another reason to learn to read your plants).

Day 89!!!! I came back from vacation and started harvesting right away, so the girl grew really big, but I gave her too little light, and at the end of the growth I didn't remove the leaves :( because I was busy on vacation :( but basically I'm still incredibly happy, her flowers are not very firm, they have a lot of "AIR", but a lot of shiny sticky trichomes, the girl grew really well throughout her growth, next time I will definitely use LST, this growth was with very little LST, there will be an update when the harvest dries up :) good luck to everyone:).

This week I decided to start feeding her some nutes. She went through some serious lollipopping aswell 😳..😆!! So she basically received a bloom booster ( 1: 12:12 ), I also added some potassium booster ( 0:0:35 ). I think she loves her nutes alot! She gave me a good stretch and formed much more bud sites which has me all excited 😊..

To be quite honest considering I have planted early and haven’t provided any food or nutrients the smell is incredible and there starting to flower nicely. All in all happy with this experiment just the Spanish sun and water.

Bang on week 5 for the gummy buns. Really impressed by these girls the structure the rate of growth there looking by far the best of the bunch, I’ve got 1 mutant and the other 5 are looking pretty sweet. Just carrying on with tying the branches down so each bud site gets enough room and light for flowering. All in all looking good and the most forgiving of the bunch at the minute✌️🏼

I’ll try to get better and more pics. Started flushing Gorilla Zkittlez last week, so one more to go. By far the best run I’ve had. Clipped a few lower nugs the other day and usually my past harvest would have a grassy/hay smell right away. But that’s not happening this time. Gorilla Zkittlez has a nice berry/fruity Gasy/diesel smell. And the Gorilla Cookies and like a Grapefruit Diesel smell. It’s wicked. Thanks for following my grow. I appreciate you! 🤛🏽🤛🏽🙏🏼

9/28 Day 24. Raised air pumps above the water line using two 5 gal buckets. Removed the inline air backflow valve and this increased aeration greatly! - Feeding day. Red TDS 850. EC 1.8 / Blue TDS 800. EC 1.7 / Yellow TDS 785. EC 1.6 / 10ml CalMag, 10ml Micro, 5ml Grow, 5ml Bloom, 2ml UC Roots. Will check TDS & EC through the week as they are starting to drink up the water. - LST started today. I will be adjusting them daily to pull off shoot branches in different directions. 9/30 Day 26. Added water for the first time. Used purified drinking water from the grocery store (Ph 7.45 TDS 95 EC .2) and PH'd it down to 5.9 10/1 Day 27. Readjusted the LST wires and added some new ones on the stems that can now be pulled in different directions. Red suffered a break on the main stem that went 1/2 through the stalk. I decided to use the LST wire to push it back together so that it can heal. I will still train the other shoots in different directions and let the main stem just do it's thing. Blue and Yellow pulled in new directions to open up the middle and spread out the stems. - I defoliated (light amount) some of the 3 leaf blades that were touching the container lids, and any larger 5 leaf blades that were blocking light to any new shoots with new stem growth and potential bud sites. I wanted to allow the air flow at the lower section of the plant. 10/2 Day 28. Everyone is bouncing back from the LST. Keeping a close eye on Red and the injury healing. I've decided to do a 1/2 of a weekly feed every 4 days instead of a mass feeding once a week. I will test the TDS and EC, see what the plants are telling me before I feed of course. (All values before feeding) - Red PH 5.98 TDS 720 EC 1.512 - Blue PH 6.17 TDS 728 EC 1.544 / Will add .25 PH down and re-test all in an hour after the feed to check PH values. - Yellow PH 5.93 TDS 708 EC 1.497 Feeding: 5ml CalMag, 5ml Micro, 4 ml Gro, 2ml Bloom, 2ml UC Root Guard. Post Feed values: - Red PH 5.78 TDS 808 EC 1.695 - Blue PH 5.90 TDS 846 EC 1.796 - Yellow PH 5.73 TDS 803 EC 1.700 Lessons learned week 4. 1. Be a little more gentle on LST. 2. Mark the water sight gauge at each 1 gallon increment so that I can track water replenishment levels. 3. Started a spreadsheet to monitor feeding value changes.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Gorilla Zkittlez Auto de FastBuds. Por dónde empezar, es una autofloreciente que es normalita de cultivar, tiene un periodo corto de crecimiento y de floración igual no es largo, o igual tendría que haberla dejado alguna semana más no entiendo bien. En cuanto a la alimentación , pues la aplique una vez por semana y a sido suficiente, se a comportado bien en interior, la flor pues no es muy prieta porque no deja de ser una autofloreciente, pero es una flor que va repleta de tricomas. El periodo de luz pues de principio a fin a 18 horas, fue suficiente para completar el ciclo de vida como esperaba.

Week 16 - Day 103 08/16: Harvested Aaliyah on 08/15, Day 102 from soil and Day of flowering. After one week of pure water for Aaliyah, some of the trichomes have turned amber. I decided to harvest about 3/4 of the plant. Some of the lower buds didn’t receive enough light during the grow, so I’m hoping they can grow a little more before I bring the whole plant down. I also removed some of the dead and very young growth that was coming up. I didn’t have another spot to hang the buds because of the smell, so I tied them over the other plants. Now that she is mostly harvested, the smell has increased. I now have Annie on the side so she is getting less direct light. She already took some bleaching on her main colas. Alexis still has about a week left. I’ll check her trichomes before the next watering to see if I should start flushing. 08/18: Aaliyah’s harvested buds were getting close to being dry, so I decided to start cleaning up some of the sugar leaves. The smaller, less developed buds got chopped up and set aside for some dry ice hash. Since she was on the left side of the tent, a lot of her colas did not receive enough direct light. I hung up a few of the nicer looking ones that I’m keeping as flower to finish drying. [General notes: I still don’t have a scale to take note of the exact wet weight, but I’ll make sure to have one for the dry weight. And since all three plants are of the same strain, I’m going to wait till the last one is chopped up before posting the full harvesting results.]

Had a couple of the stems which were almost drooping on the ground due to the weight of the buds, so decided to harvest those two branches today. Also, this week I did a bit more research on when to harvest. I had been waiting for the trichomes to begin to turn amber, but after reading this article: https://www.growweedeasy.com/harvest, I decided to harvest when the trichomes were cloudy. Experts say that the amber trichomes give a more relaxing effect, but I was growing this plant for daytime use. Looked at it under my digital microscope and decided to pull the trigger on the whole plant. Plus, the neighbors were starting to notice the smell. Final height - 104" - 8 1/2 feet - 2.64 meters. Not good. Was concerned that someone would hop the fence and pilfer my plant. Harvested her at 35 weeks - 281 days. Grow diaries really needs to expand the weeks available for us outdoor growers. Started her indoors in Feb. Transplanted outside on April 7th.
