See main diary for additional information. 2313: Fat chonky colas, fast and early flowering. This plant bulked up a lot between 6 and 7 weeks. Nice purple tones on the buds but no signs of deficiency and lots of stored nutrients to finish this plant off.

04/22/25. Start of week 8 flower. Uh.. apparently I took way too many pictures lol. Oops. Couldn’t help it.. she’s photogenic I guess. Anyway, getting some new pretty colors now and her pistils are darkening up a lot more now. Also getting some foxtailing on the two tallest buds. Probably getting light blasted a bit much, but they’re quite a bit taller than the rest.. and I don’t want them lacking, so it is what it is. I gave her food a couple days ago, but I’ll be looking at her trichs to see where she’s at. I’m guessing she still has a bit to go, but guessing isn’t gonna do it- pistils have lied to me before. I’ve seen a bit of white in them before and had amber trichs. My guess is that the next update will not be a harvest. Guess we will see. ✌️

Good day. From this week my DO SI DOS starts the flowering. Look at the branches- very strong and fully covered with flowers. I defoliate the plant each 3rd day. Very healthy and strong genetic. And there are no smell yet. The plant like to drink a lot - the most dry plant everytime I open my small tent.:) I will add some PK from next week to help progress the flowering.

NOTE: Measuring light distance from top of net rather than top of plants for consistency. - Plant were developing nice broad leaves, but were refusing to grow any taller to push through the netting. So, I raised the light 3 inches and switched on both blue and red lights to allow them to stretch through, which did the trick! - Placed a lot of stress on the plants this week trimming and training them to grow throughout the ScrOG netting and removing lower branches that were not receiving as much light to allow the top leaves to get more nutrients. - NEGATIVE: switched off the grow lights to get natural color photos and forgot to turn them back on until several hours later! :-O My babies are too young to flower at this point. Hope they stay in vegetative state without any serious impact. Fingers crossed! - Been experimenting with clones from clippings. Last week didn't do to hot, but this time I got two nice long pieces and trimmed off the majority of leaves to give the roots a chance to develop without fighting over nutrients from the leaves. The trick this time was 1) sufficient size of clipping, 2) minimal leaves, 3) dipping the base in mycorrhizal fungi concentrate, and 3) placement near the humidifier to ensure leaves get sufficient moisture. So far so good. Check them out in the time lapse video.

Found Budrot in the mainbud… Damn it! Cut the whole mainbud and let the dmaller ones which looked fine. Wish me luck…

Transplant week! Some of the girls in the tent started to droop but this one didn’t! She’s looking pretty good to me Come hang out with us in the discord!

Did some super cropping to get some more light penetration in the last month of flowering. plant got hit with a case of spider mites but I believe I got it on time. She smells super sweet and should be done in another month

Week Update – Final Flush Before the Chop! 🌿✂️ Last week of flushing and we’re just about ready to bring her down! I like to aim for a few ambers towards the end, so I’m closely monitoring those trichomes going for that sweet 70/30 cloudy to amber ratio. 👀💎 She’s absolutely stinking up the place in the best way possible pure skunk vibes, it’s amazing. Dense as a rock too! I seriously can't wait to smoke her.

I'm enjoying a lot this genetic, the root system is super healthy and that's giving strong plants with desire to grow and produce frosty flowers :)

[ Information ] For all grow information, including strain and room details, please see the first week of veg. [ Updates ] (Flower) Day 1 - Light intensity increased to 65%. C02 increased to 1300ppm average. Day temp/humidity 85/70 (1-1.2VPD), night temp/humidity 75/65 (.8-1VPD). Fed a diluted compost tea mixture before lights on. Base water was R/O and tap water mixed lightly with silica and Tribus microbes. Tea was a mixture of Fish Hydrolysate, Bat Guano, Molasses, Fulvic/Humic, Kelp, and Earthworm Castings. 8 gallons of tea were added to 72 gallons of water mixture for an 80gal batch total. The batch was mixed for a half hour before feeding to the room. I did not PH or PPM test the mixture, organic material is hard to get an accurate PPM reading so the numbers are useless to me. I will be working to bring the lights to 100% power over this first week of flower. Day 4 - Light intensity increased daily, currently at 90%. Will raise to full power tomorrow. C02 increased to 1800ppm average. Temp and humidity for day and night are still the same. Lights were raised slightly to maintain 12 inches from canopy height, and a few growth nodes that were above the canopy got topped. Watered today with an 80gal (1.25gal p/pot) mixture, 10% tap 90% r/o water. 6.8 PH, 2.2ec. Foliar sprayed yesterday before lights off with a neem mixture for weekly IPM. Canopies are stretching relatively evenly, though I will be adding in support nets within a few days to help maintain the even spread. I've run this strain before so I'm fairly confident that I know what to expect during these few stretch weeks. Day 7 - Lights have been at 100% since day 5. C02 still 1800-2000ppm on average. Plants are stretching quickly into the lights, I have yet to readjust their height. The best growth usually happens when I do nothing, and I've done almost nothing the past couple days besides enjoy the unusually warm spring weather my area is currently experiencing. Watered today, 100gal (1.5gal p/pot) mixture, <1ec. Mainly an organic feeding for microbe health, also wanted a bit more runoff than normal due to the high ec feeding previously.

9/8/2024 Plant B showing signs of female with hairs coming from the pre-flower formations. Looks to be stretching and starting to push into flower as well. Plant A is growing insanely well! Continuing to defoliate daily by removing larger fan leaves here and there to continue to open up the canopies on both plants. No complete water change yet since a few weeks ago. I have continued to add fresh nutrient water with an occasional pH-adjusted gallon of filtered water + cal mag. 9/10/2024 Both plants and stretching nicely and developing great canopies! Plant A is an absolute monster, plant B is small and compact but has really good node spacing already. I am expecting some nice flower development over the next few weeks! Topping off the reservoir with about 1 - 1.5 gallons per day of nutrient water at this point. Continuing to prune a good handful of leaves and smaller growth from the plants to open up the canopy leading up to day 21 final trim. Trying to stay ahead of a huge stress event for the plants. 9/12/2024 Continuing to defoliate handful of leaves and prune smaller undergrowth. Cutting only 2-4 stems per day to avoid over stressing. 9/13/2024 Raised lights over plant A a few inches as it continues to stretch. Also trying to keep the lights low enough for plant B without burning the side branches of plant A. 9/14/2024 All week I have been adding nutrient water to the system. No water change or replacement. However today, I decided to introduce just pH-balanced water to drop the nitrogen concentration in the system as we transition into week 3 flower. Highest PPM throughout the week was around 900, average 800, low in the PM after pH water 700. Had a minor flow issue with a root plug in one of the drain lines. Blew them out and flow returned. Humidity in the tent has been slightly higher than ideal this week, although VPD has been around 1 - 1.4 with the lights on. Likely due to the volume of plant matter in the tent. Doing my best to keep up with defoliation and trimming. Day 21 flower will be much needed!

Day 21, These 3 are a pain in the 🍑 i know why they look like they do🤦‍♂️🏻 (K) but i just don't get it. I'm already pushing these 3 to EC 1.8 but they just keep hungry🤷 I'm gonna switch to Greenhouse powderfeeding for a little while to get them a higher dose of K. Hope this solves the issue. Rock on Growmies 🌱

Grew in freezing temperatures my tent was barely 16 celcius,
