Day 120, 9/5, Day 50 of flowering, full week always one week back: Net down and holding in support. The discoloration is starting to spread and I'm still unsure exactly what it is or if there's time to address it at this point. I've got the lights pulled up just bit more, just over 17" to the canopy at the closest spot. Humidity and Temp have been goldilocks as far as I can tell. PPM was 1100 and 6.38pH on the last runoff with small amounts of Molasses, Senizyme, and a tiny bit of CalMag. Bag is 60% FFOF, 30% Coir, 10% additional Perlite. Have been using FF trio as my base at half strength, only other additions have been the occasional Senizyme and some B-52 back in veg. Day 121: Posting a video of entire plant. Having to get a bit creative to keep this lady up. Some more twist ties and a tie up. Day 122: Will feed tonight. Planning a clean feed with a slightly high pH to bring closer to 6.5pH. Fed: 6.8pH, 6L, 71F, 135ppm - Runoff 6.69, 545ppm. Day 123: Going to spend some time tonight trying to get a view of the trichomes without the glare of the LED on, seems I might get a better idea of what's going on. My wife took these pictures in the dark with flash only this morning. Day 124: Well, I think I'm considerably farther along than I initially thought. I think I'm harvesting this weekend? I've at least 60-70% cloudy, and several amber as seen in today's pictures. These are likely the best micro shots I can get. I have a handheld magnifying glass that's hard AF to keep lined up on my phone camera, especially with my shaky hands. On the other hand, these are pretty decent zoom pics, LG V60, so here's some free advertising for them I guess. Considerable yellowing of the leaves seemingly over night. Day 125, Thursday 9/10, Day 55 of flowering: So, I've decided we won't be using the Flawless Finish. I would have, had I another week to water again. Just worried about adding anything as this is my last watering. On my previous clean feed I had a run off in the low 500s, so I'm just going to 'flush' again with plain Ph'd water. Lights on thru Friday, if everything looks good, lights off all day Saturday. Sunday: harvest, trim, and dry! Night 125: So after fretting a bit much over the past two days, I called the guy at my local grow (and home brew!) shop. He advised 50/50 one way or the other on the Flawless, but of it was him he's pass if he was harvest Sunday, as I plan. Watered with plain ol' pH'd water, 6.5 input. The first gallon was warmer ~75F and run off was 6.3pH/1300ppm, second gallon at 70F, 6.5pH/900ppm. Assume the higher ppm is from the higher temp in water for the first gallon, which was done on purpose. Tomorrow is the last day of lights. Day 126: will attempt to get some good trichome shots tonight Going to confirm she's cloudy and amber all over then shut the lights off for 24hrs. Day 127: Lights out! In the dark til tomorrow. While I couldn't get any good shots, I would say bud to bud my trichomes are 80% cloudy, 10% glassy and 10% amber. There are a few trichomes I was able to focus on for a second that seemed reddish or purple: no idea what that means. My wife was able to sneak into the tent and get some Trichomes pictures. See the red & amber! Day 128, Pre-Harvest Sneak Peek & Pics: Wildly underestimated the amount of time this would take. We started at 3pm, and by 10pm we had only done about half the plant, maybe a little more. Granted we got up for small walks around the block every hour and stopped to make & eat dinner at some point, but I would say we did a solid 4-4.5 hours of trimming. We only clipped the arms of what we trimmed, so the rest is still in the dark tent. Hopefully we finish tonight! We weighed only the largest buds we've trimmed so far and it came out to 140grams wet. Day 130: Welp, didn't finish trimming til this morning. Worth it though! With some already drying for 2 days and some newer, the weight is likely hard to gauge at this point. Looks like the smalls are mostly dry already and weight in at 16gr, the slightly larger grade buds weighed in at 32gr, and the largest buds weighed in at 126gr now. We tried our hand at dry ice hash for all the trim (77gr wet) and got 2gr out of the 73 screen, and 10gr out of the 220 screen! Picture posted of product. See you all in 2 weeks for the harvest post!

Wow love this strain, second grow of it and we should have flipped at 24 inches as stretch is only a bit over 100% and they could have used a few inches. Great colors as she finished buds as hard as rocks even before the dry. Very Frosty though not as much as the FF-11. Expect we will be pleased after dry given how dense those buds are, will watch close in dry. Strong easy grow folks worth getting

What’s up, Growmies! Even though I find LST plants a bit odd-looking, the training has gone solidly so far. One plant is already ahead and has entered the flowering stage, while the other two are a few days behind. I’ve decided to stop LST on the plant that’s furthest along, and I’ll continue training the other two to help spread them out and even the canopy. Aside from that, plant health is looking good. They’re just a few days away from hitting the stretch phase, where I’ll let them do their thing. --- Quick rundown on everything else: Watering: 600ml every third day Fertilizer: According to the BioBizz schedule Light intensity: Around 600 PPFD VPD: Stable at 0.91 kPa Temperature: ~28°C Relative humidity: 75%

The room smells like sweet citrus. This grow was pretty easy but I was expecting a higher yield. Overall she was a good plant! Now time to fire up the curing chamber.

Gracias al equipo de Fast Buds, Marshydro y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no seria posible. 💐🍁🍋🍊 Lemon Mandarin: Esta variedad es para los amantes de todo lo grande. La Lemon Mandarin es el resultado de nuestro trabajo de cruce de dos deliciosas cepas cítricas: nuestra matriz Lemonade cut y la Tangie (selección de Crockett's Family Farms). Nos aseguramos de que se combinaran los mejores atributos de sus padres, como un efecto eufórico y vigorizante, una producción de tricomas demencial y un perfil de terpenos cítricos agridulces. La Lemon Mandarin es ideal para los amantes de los árboles enormes y los rendimientos XXL: puede alcanzar alturas de hasta 200 cm, mostrando una resistencia extrema y muchas ramas laterales. Su aroma es una mezcla perfecta de la Tangie, cáscara de limón y la dulzura calmante de la mandarina madura, que envuelve los sentidos en una fragancia profundamente picante de mandarina-limón que perdura mucho tiempo después de fumarla. Se comporta perfectamente tanto en interior como en exterior, y su impresionante crecimiento y encanto aromático la hacen ideal para los cultivadores que buscan una cepa realmente excepcional con una compleja fragancia cítrica. Basándonos en nuestra experiencia, aconsejamos realizar el Scrogging o cualquier otro tipo de sujeción, ya que las ramas podrían no ser capaces de soportar el peso de los cogollos. En interior, para conseguir el máximo rendimiento por planta, no coloques más de 2-3 por metro cuadrado, ya que esta variedad se vuelve muy tupida. También podría beneficiarse de una defoliación más frecuente, ya que produce muchas hojas grandes y anchas en abanico, y podría necesitar ayuda con la aireación más adelante en la fase de floración. 🚀 Consigue aqui tus semillas: https://2fast4buds.com/es/seeds/lemon-mandarin 💡FC6500: Eficiencia líder en el mercado: la lámpara de cultivo LED FC-E6500, que ostenta un estatus líder en el mercado, es una solución rentable con un PPE de 2,8 µmol/J y un rendimiento máximo de 2,5 g/vatio. Ofrece un PPF alto de 2026 umol/S y es adecuada para una cobertura de vegetación de 1,50 m x 1,50 m y una cobertura de flores de 1,20 m x 1,20 m. Iluminación versátil y uniforme. https://marshydro.eu/products/mars-hydro-fc-e-6500-730w-commercial-led-grow-light/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw1qO0BhDwARIsANfnkv9IIrYSbmJqz8PqpJOIyWwJfp5bc3SGJgUV68USLQ4tjmXDYwoBuAsaAue3EALw_wcB 🚥 MarsHydro ADLITE UV/IR/RED: Para lograr un crecimiento óptimo de las plantas y maximizar los rendimientos es un arte simple que depende en gran medida de las condiciones ambientales adecuadas. Reconociendo las limitaciones de la iluminación natural y las soluciones de iluminación tradicionales para satisfacer estas necesidades únicas, lanzamos ADLITE.

Hello. This is the end of week 5 and the beginning of week 6 of flowering. It's like walking into the mango store and smelling all the ripe mangos, Wonderful. Things are going good in here. I getting some lower yellowing leaves, now that the plants are putting everything into flowering. I'll mix in a bit more nitrogen in tomorrows changing of the nutrient solution to slow the yellowing down some. Each pot gets 2 gallons of rainwater when they are dry enough. One more strange thing happened this week, my unknown 40 year old daughter made contact with me last week. I guess she's had some awful relationships with men and doesn't like them. It came across. There's been stress here this week, but not with cannabis. 😒 I need the cannabis to de-stress. Wow. Never saw that coming. OK. Be great. Chuck.

1/9: packing on weight. I let em get a little to hungry before top dressing them, think it was about 3 weeks since last top dressing of 1/4 cup of craft blend BAS in their 3 gallon pots. So gave em a nice tea to catch them up. Added some kashi on top to help speed up the break down process. Smells are really starting to kick in. Not my favorite. Definitely spicy, limy, piney. But very loud. A lot of variation in The phenotype. Got 2 short bushy and two long and spread out, and one bushy and green and one bushy and purple. One plant I knocked over during transplant so that could have effected its pheno with stress. But the other is naturally short.

83 days from seed, soil was hot from day 1 & I ended up stunting the plants this run... Low yield at 28g but end product still turned out great! Smelled like straight chem with none of the extras during flower & has managed to maintain that during the cure so far as well! Grown in Black Swallow living soil with Cronks PUUR Organics line Photos taken with the new Sony A7 V + 28-75mm F/2.8 Tamron Di III VXD G2 zoom lens, images are heavily cropped & could have been better, am still learning how to use the camera :P 4K 60fps with the Sony A7 V + Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro APO macro lens: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3sOkGGrR2c *Render settings are also something I will need to figure out, colors are a lot lighter vs the raw file

Hanging in the tent, looking great. Thought I'd try my hand at 'live' or 'raw' bubble hash using the frozen CO2 method. Worked well, great fun. Drying for the rest of the week. .......................................................................................................... Well I am ecstatic, delighted, and well pleased. The totals: - 185g of excellent flower - 3g of 'live' bubble hash - 2.3g of killer bubble - 1.2g of dangerous shatter There you have it. Would I get more or less if I had heavily trimmed or lollipopped? You tell me! Thanks for your friendly comments and attention to my grow.

These ladies have blown up since last week almost tripled the size in 7 days. I'm thinking that the new soil I'm using is better than what I previously used which was roots organic 707 now I'm using FoxFarms happy frog. Other than that watering with half the normal dose of nutrients for now until they use up the nutes in the soil. Temperature never moves at a steady 72° F all day and night even with the lights on. I can tell these are going to produce some nice thick flowers 🌿💚

Semana del 19 al 25 de abril La semana pasada aplicamos el insecticida Tec Fort y fenomenal, no vimos ningún otro insecto, ni daños en las hojas. Por prevención hoy, 19 de abril, lo volvimos a aplicar (1ml por litro de agua). Voy a parar con la poda y en una o dos semanas volveré a podar las hojas bajo la malla o aquellas muy grandes que hacen sombra a los cogollos. Tampoco quiero estresar tanto la planta. Creo que las plantas van bastante bien y que he mejorado desde la primera vez. Soy muy nueva en esto, pero creo que voy bien. Dentro de unas semanas comenzaré a usar el microscopio para ver que tal van. Espero obtener cogollos gordos😍 de momento huele muy afrutada.

This week has been a breeze. Simply watered at 6.5, kept the humidity at 65%, and increased the power of my light to about 70%. Also made a tea with Roots Organic Terp Tea Grow, and watered it down 1 -4 tea to water. Even with diluting the tea, the plants showed a little burn, so I’m holding off on ferts til next week. All are looking great, besides the one LSD25 that is off to a slow start.
