Gonna be leaving the plants to the auto feeder for a week probably starting this weekend, here’s hoping they make it through that relying on just the water stakes and hempy res. Flowering has definitely started, for the Amnesia especially so, but all the plants are getting along just fine and giving me a nice sea of colas over my grow area. Cheers and best wishes for yall’s croptober!

Introduction - Week 09 Summary - Ensign's log, stardate 100906.68, Overall a pretty good grow week! Started the week off by increasing the light's intensity. Also raised it up a bit. Most of the week was basic growth checkups and humidifier refilling. Mid week, increased the light's intensity a bit more. Also did a top soil drench of organic fertilizer along with a simple defoliation. Towards the end of the week, decided to give both girls a large bottom watering. Also did a mini defoliation again. Now that both reservoirs are full with about 2 gallons, shouldn't need to water for a while. Next week will be the big 12/12 flip! Steady as she grows Ensign. Engage! 🖖 [START OF WEEK 09] ========================================================== WEEK 09 - Full Veg Wk4 04/17/23 → 04/23/23 This Week's Estimated Goals ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DLI: 39 mol/m2/d PPFD: 600 μmol/m2/s VPD: 0.5-1.0 kPa This Week's Meter Readings & Averages ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DLI: 40.05 mol/m2/d PPFD: 618 μmol/m2/s VPD: 1.04 kPa Soil %: [25.9, 37.3, 32.0, 34.7] ========================================================== Day 01 - Monday - 04/17/23 - Total Days: 063 ----------------------------------- Daily Averages - Temps: 77.8°F [25.4°C] - Humidity: 68.6% - VPD: 1.00 kPa - Soil %: [19, 28, 30, 28] ----------------------------------- - [09:23]: Quick morning checkup! --- Looking great my ladies! --- EB1 is continuing to explode with growth! --- Refilled the humidifier with distilled water and Hydrogen Peroxide (~20mL). - [22:25]: Evening my girls! --- Growing along nicely! --- The top of the canopy is clearly filling in with top sites. --- Refilled the humidifier with distilled water and Hydrogen Peroxide (~20mL). --- Looking at the lower leaves, plan to do another fertilizer feeding soon.

Looking great ladies! --- Top growth is looking very nice! --- Hmm. A bit of yellowing is still developing on the lower leaves. --- Regardless, canopy growth is still spreading out quite nicely! --- With this being the last week of 18/6 veg, these girls are bushing out quite nicely! --- After flipping the light schedule from 18/6 to 12/12, some cannabis plants will double in size. --- Starting to get a bit nervous (well more stoked than nervous) about the growth spurt these ladies may undergo (also known as the 'stretch phase'). - [16:19]: Took PPFD readings. --- EB1 was around 476 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 30.84 mol/m2/d --- EB2 was around 449 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 29.1 mol/m2/d --- Decided to increase the intensity of the grow light. Going for a PPFD goal of 500. --- Will also most likely need to raise it up a bit. - [16:27]: Within the AC Infinity App, --- Adjusted the 'Vegetative [18/6]' Schedule for the grow light. --- Increased the MAX from 3 to 4 --- The FC-6500 is now utilizing around 327.3W from 261.9W (at intensity 4 out of 10) - [16:33]: Raised the grow light up a bit. --- Took new PPFD readings. --- EB1 was around 528 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 34.21 mol/m2/d --- EB2 was around 499 μmol/m2/s which gives a DLI of 32.34 mol/m2/d --- Great! - [16:48]: Took a general light distance reading for EB1. --- She's now about 16.25" from the grow light. --- Plan to do final height and distance readings at the end of the week. --- Okay! Now for the soil! - [16:53]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: --- 20% - [CH01 EB1 - grow bag] --- 28% - [CH02 EB1] --- 30% - [CH03 EB2 - grow bag] --- 28% - [CH04 EB2] --- Soil moisture is drying around EB1. --- EB2 soil seems to be 10% more hydrated. --- Now for the basic meter. - [16:58]: Using the soil moisture probe, took readings for each EarthBox. --- Soil moisture levels for EB1 was at 5.5 out of 10 --- Top soil both looked and felt dry. --- Soil moisture levels for EB2 was at 3 out of 10 --- Top soil looks hydrated but felt dry. --- Fascinating. 🖖 --- A huge contrast in moisture data. --- Based on the basic meter, both girls have drank quite a bit. Yet the Ecowitt sensors have not really changed much at all. - [17:09]: Rotated both EarthBoxes 180 degrees. --- Checked the fill tube for each EarthBox. --- Both fill tubes are now pretty dry! --- With the current soil moisture levels, decided to continue on with the top soil drenching. --- Don't frack this up Ensign! - [17:21]: Filled a pitcher with 5 cups of distilled water. --- Then filled a measuring cup with 2 cups of distilled water. --- Added 1/32tsp + 1/64tsp + Half 1/64tsp of Quillaja Saponaria Extract --- Added 1/16tsp + 1/32tsp + 1/64tsp of: ------ Horticultural Aloe ------ Big 6 Micronutrients [+ Humic Acid] --- Added 1/8tsp + 1/16tsp + 1/32tsp of: ------ Mycrobe Complete ------ Recharge --- Added 1/4tsp + 1/8tsp + 1/16tsp of: ------ Pure Protein Dry [Organic Fish Aminos] --- Added 2mL of Bio-Catalyst Enzyme Elixer --- Added 5.25mL of Yah-Whey --- Mixed the solution and poured everything straight into the pitcher to mix with the 5 cups of distilled water from earlier (now 7 cups). --- Poured 3.5 cups of the mixed solution into a spray bottle. - [17:54]: Rotated the EarthBoxes 90 degrees. EB2 is now facing the front. --- Before watering, going to defoliate a bit. - [17:58]: Using a pair of trimmers, I gently clipped away lower yellowing leaves. --- Removed a few of the larger fan leaves which were covering top sites. --- To help to further promote top growth, also removed more lower nodes. --- Time to top soil drench! --- Also going to top dress a bit of gnarly barley! - [18:27]: Gently removed the rear moisture meter before pealing back the plastic much cover. --- Now for the top dressing. - [18:30]: Sprinkled 1/4cup of Gnarly Barley onto the top soil. --- Tried to stay towards the back. --- Using my fingers, I gently tilled the topdressing into the top soil. --- Also tried to work in all of the trimmings from the defoliation. - [18:42]: Misted the top soil for EB2. --- Made sure to spray the area with the Grow Dots, but did not spray the grow bag. --- Sprayed the whole top soil, but focused more on the back area. --- Placed the mulch cover back along with the rear moisture sensor. - [18:59]: Rotated the EarthBoxes 180 degrees. --- Now for EB1, --- Using a pair of trimmers, I gently clipped away yellowing leaves. --- Also removed the larger fan leaves covering top sites. - [19:20]: Gently removed the rear moisture meter. --- Then pealed back the plastic much cover. - [19:24]: Sprinkled 1/4cup of Gnarly Barley onto the top soil. --- Again, tried to stay towards the back. Also sprinkled a bit around the grow bag. --- Using my fingers, I gently tilled the topdressing into the top soil. --- Also tilled in the trimmings from the defoliation. - [19:45]: Using the rest of the solution (~3.5cups), misted the top soil for EB1. --- Made sure to spray the Grow Dots, but did not spray the grow bag. --- Tried to spray the solution evenly. - [19:47]: Placed the mulch cover back along with the rear moisture sensor. --- Rotated the EarthBoxes back to the default configuration. --- Refilled the humidifier with distilled water and Hydrogen Peroxide (~20mL). - [20:12]: Misted the top growth with a bit of distilled water. --- Really hope I didn't over-water. --- Going to let the water soak in a bit before checking the moisture levels. --- Okay! - [21:31]: Checked the Ecowitt soil moisture sensor data: --- 31% - [CH01 EB1 - grow bag] --- 44% - [CH02 EB1] --- 33% - [CH03 EB2 - grow bag] --- 35% - [CH04 EB2] --- As expected, soil moisture overall is higher. --- Will continue to check moisture levels as the soil dries out.

This adoptee has been growing nicely, although she suffered from stress because she wasn’t taken care off very well (she & other had a to find new Homes). But after having it for 4 weeks, now entering the 5th week (of flowering, I Guess) We are getting closer and closer to harvest. Today’s pictures are from Sunday, we are maturing well :3 there will be only 3 more feeds with nutrients, then flush, an wait for the ideal time to harvest.

Flowering described earlier than I expected, more than 1 week after the vegetation phase would be bigger and more beautiful, has an effect with pleasant sensations and euphoric as the sativa dominant is accustomed to the aroma of lemon and citrus.

Flush week, straight water flush and I expect to chop and harvest this coming Sunday, maybe Saturday depending on trichomes and how dry the promix HP is. Overall I'm happy with this plants growth, she survived a heat stress issue and has developed lots of bud. While not huge buds, compared to my last grow of this strain, I'm still super pumped with this strain/plant. Updates will come after harvest and after drying for final weight total.

🇩🇪 Cherry Limeade – Doja Diese Woche hat sich meine Cherry Limeade von Doja hervorragend entwickelt 🌱. Die Pflanze wächst kräftig, wirkt ausgesprochen vital und entwickelt langsam genau die Struktur, die ich mir vorgestellt habe 💚. An den Parametern habe ich im Vergleich zur letzten Woche bewusst nichts verändert. Stattdessen lag der Fokus ausschließlich auf dem Training. Mit einem SCROG-Netz und zusätzlichen Drahtankern habe ich die Triebe kontinuierlich nach unten gebunden, damit sich ein möglichst gleichmäßiges Blätterdach entwickeln kann 🌿. Jeden Tag waren nur kleine Korrekturen nötig, aber genau diese Konstanz macht am Ende den Unterschied. Die Lichtintensität habe ich mit etwa 430 PPFD (DLI 28) bewusst moderat gehalten ☀️. Irgendwie hatte ich das Gefühl, dass bei den sommerlichen Temperaturen mehr Licht eher kontraproduktiv gewesen wäre. In der Vergangenheit habe ich gelernt, dass manchmal weniger tatsächlich mehr ist – und bisher scheint die Pflanze mir recht zu geben 😊. Da ich im Oktober im Urlaub bin, schicke ich die Cherry Limeade heute bereits in die Blüte 🌸. Dafür habe ich den Lichtzyklus auf 12/12 umgestellt. Gleichzeitig läuft die SANlight jetzt auf Stufe 4, morgen folgt Stufe 5, damit der DLI trotz der kürzeren Beleuchtungszeit zunächst wieder bei etwa 25 liegt. Anschließend werde ich die Lichtleistung nach meinem Schema von Woche zu Woche langsam steigern 📈. Letzte Woche war ich vier Tage beruflich unterwegs. Das Blumat-System hat dabei wieder einmal gezeigt, warum ich es so schätze 💧. Es hat die Bodenfeuchtigkeit völlig selbstständig bei durchschnittlich 90 mbar gehalten, sodass ich mich um nichts kümmern musste. Ab nächster Woche werde ich die Saugspannung auf etwa 120 mbar erhöhen und das Living Soil während der Blüte etwas trockener fahren. Heute bekommt das Beet außerdem noch eine weitere Gabe SF-Nematoden. Mein Ziel ist es, die Trauermücken spätestens zu Beginn der Blüte nahezu vollständig ausgerottet zu haben. Insgesamt bin ich mit der Entwicklung im Moment wirklich sehr zufrieden und freue mich darauf zu sehen, wie sie sich während des Stretchs entwickelt 🚀. 📊 Aktuelle Parameter: 💡 Licht: 430 PPFD / DLI 28 (18/6, Stufe 3, 40 cm Abstand) 🌡️ Temperatur: 27 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 72 % 📈 VPD: 1,0 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Ø 670 ppm 💦 Bodenfeuchtigkeit: 90 mbar 🇬🇧 Cherry Limeade – Doja This week my Cherry Limeade by Doja has developed beautifully 🌱. She is growing vigorously, looks extremely healthy, and is gradually forming exactly the plant structure I was aiming for 💚. I intentionally kept all environmental parameters unchanged compared to last week. Instead, my focus was entirely on training. Using a SCROG net and additional wire anchors, I continued pulling the branches down to create a flat and even canopy 🌿. Only small daily adjustments were necessary, but consistency is what makes the difference in the long run. I also kept the light intensity fairly moderate at around 430 PPFD (DLI 28) ☀️. Somehow I had the feeling that, with the current summer temperatures, increasing the light wouldn’t necessarily benefit the plant. Experience has taught me that sometimes less is more—and so far, she seems to agree 😊. Because I’ll be on vacation in October, I’ve decided to send her into flower today 🌸. I switched the light schedule to 12/12, increased the SANlight to Level 4, and tomorrow I’ll move it up to Level 5 so the DLI starts at around 25 despite receiving only 12 hours of light. From there, I’ll gradually increase the light intensity week by week according to my usual schedule 📈. Last week I was away on a four-day business trip, and once again the Blumat system proved why I trust it so much 💧. It maintained an average soil suction tension of around 90 mbar completely on its own, so I didn’t have to worry at all. Starting next week, I’ll increase the target to around 120 mbar, allowing the Living Soil to run slightly drier throughout flowering. Today the bed will also receive another application of SF nematodes. My goal is to have the fungus gnat population almost completely eliminated before flowering really gets underway. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the current progress and can’t wait to watch her stretch over the next few weeks 🚀. 📊 Current Parameters: 💡 Light: 430 PPFD / DLI 28 (18/6, Level 3, 40 cm distance) 🌡️ Temperature: 27 °C 💧 Humidity: 72 % 📈 VPD: 1.0 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Avg. 670 ppm 💦 Soil moisture: 90 mbar

Week 3 Flower | GMO × Triangle Mints BX Week 10 overall, and this is what happy plants look like. Every top praying straight to the light — the result of a perfectly orchestrated combination of dialled VPD, correct nutrition, and a canopy that’s been managed with intention from day one. The defoliation work is largely done. A few leaves here and there will continue to come off all the way through flower as needed, but the heavy lifting is behind us. The canopy is open, the bud sites are getting what they need, and the structure is exactly where it should be at this stage. Far red has been stepped up to 30 minutes after lights out, and UV is now running 2 hours mid lights-on cycle — pushing resin production and terpene development early. The combination of far red and UV at this stage is deliberate and calculated. Plants have stretched to 100cm, lamp now sitting at 40cm distance — closing in as the canopy fills. Watering up to 3.3L per plant per 24h, the ladies are drinking properly now. pH steady at 6.2, EC holding at 1.8 mS/cm. Humidity at 68%, day temp 27°C, nights 23°C. The humidifier has been removed this week — the biomass is now transpiring enough on its own to keep humidity exactly where it needs to be. The room is running itself. Nutrient stack has made the full transition to flower: Canna CalMag Agent 1.1 ml/l, Aptus Regulator 0.1 ml/l, Green Planet Rezin bumped to 1 ml/l, CANNA Aqua Flores A+B at 4.58 ml/l each, and CANNA PK 13/14 introduced at 0.25 ml/l — which will be gradually increased to 0.75 ml/l over the coming weeks, catering to the ever increasing demand as the ladies push deeper into flower. Feed rotation stays the same — two full feeds, third is 50/50 osmosis and tap, pH’d, carrying only CalMag. Smell is coming through — normal intensity for now but the profile is already hinting at what’s coming. The GMO × Triangle Mints BX is starting to talk. Next update Sunday. Stay tuned.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Day 22 First day of the 4th week of veg and time to start training. Today I lightly defoliated the girls for the first time. I simply removed the first node from each plant and the second node on the left plant. I watered the plants with 2 liters of water (pH 6.4) right after pruning to minimize any shock. I'll give them a couple of days and then I'll top the right girl for sure but I'll see about the left one considering how much smaller she is. Last night I spotted one single fungus gnat in the tent. The first one I've seen so maybe the tomatoes did bring in something after all. I inspected the girls for any other infestation but I couldn't spot anything. I put up a couple of small sticky traps to check if the gnats are there and if they are, then out with the nematodes. I've had great success with nemos in the past so they are my go-to when it comes to fungus gnats. Day 23 So... I fucked up yesterday. I moved around some of the power plugs and forgot to start the extractor fan again after I was done. DOH! I noticed my mistake as soon as opened the tent today and was hit by a wall of heat and humidity. It felt like stepping into a jungle, hot and wet. I guess I need to regularly check the App which monitors my temps and RH. Gotten a bit lazy about it so yeah, that's when fuckups happen. After all, what is the point of having a remote monitoring system if you don't monitor it? As for the plants they are doing their thing. Not much to report. I found one gnat stuck to the left sticky trap. Hardly a huge problem at the moment but need to stay on top of it. I am hoping that the weather improves soon so I can move out the tomatoes and then hit the plants with nematodes. Day 24 Today was a busy day in the tent. I started with cutting back the cover crops as they were getting a bit unruly. I then topped and did some low-stress training to the right girl but am holding off a few days for the left one as she is a bit smaller. My girlfriend suggested that I'd save the top and try to turn it into a clone. I never considered it as I don't have any space really for a third plant but hey, since it was her idea I'll give it a go. This is the first time I ever try to clone so I'm kinda clueless and am just winging it as I go along. I'm not too worried though as this is more an experiment in seeing if I can turn the top into a clone with the means I have at hand. I cut some aloe vera and put the top directly into it. I then blended the aloe with some water in my mixer and now the top is sitting in that aloe tea. I have no idea what to plant the top in next. Maybe some peat moss (as I have some) and continue feeding it aloe tea until root appears...?  It's all an experiment. lol For the low-stress training, I used some wire that I gently put around each branch and then attached the wire to a binder clip that is clipped onto the edge of the fabric pots. I also moved out some tomatoes out of the tent but swapped in some Bishop's Crown and Saltillo hot peppers instead. Finally, I watered everything with nematodes as I today found another four gnats stuck to the right sticky trap. Still, not a huge problem, and I was planning on waiting until the tomatoes and peppers are out of the tent but better to be proactive and nip the problem in the bud than letting it fester. I used 10 million Steinernema feltiae nematodes and I know that 10 million is maybe overkilling it but hey, as they said in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas - Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing. Besides, I already had those nemos at hand. I gave each girl around 2.5 liters of water (ph 6.7). Day 25 Alright, so I almost died in a heart attack today as I opened my tent and saw several spots of white residue on the leaves - "Fuuuuuuuuu... Did I get Powdery Mildew now after that one day of high humidity?!" After checking more thoroughly it certainly didn't look like PM and then it finally dawned on me. It was simply dried nematodes as I yesterday had spilled a bit of water on a few leaves. Phew! Other than that, not much to report. The right plant looks strong after topping and I re-tightened a couple of the LST wires. The left plant is coming along nicely so I will top her in a couple of days I think. The top is chilling in a glass of aloe vera tea and later today I will put it in a peat tab which will go under a humidity dome. Day 26 Pretty uneventful as all I really did was to water the girls, each got about 2 liters of ph 6.5 water. The right girl is bouncing back strong after topping and the top itself is doing pretty ok, nestled between the girls, in a propagation tray at the back of the tent. It's quite cramped in my small tray but hey, that's all I can fit so let's see if it works out anyway. I also prepared some fresh aloe vera tea by blending an aloe very filet with a bit of water and then fed the tea to the top. I haven’t seen any more gnats, not flying around nor in the sticky traps so let’s hope that they are gone. Day 27 Nothing too exciting today. I gave the top a little more aloe tea, cut back the cover crop a bit to increase air circulation around the plants, and tweaked the LST wires a bit. That's it. Day 28 Today it was time to top and train the left girl. I also put this top in aloe tea together with the other top in the propagation tray. I figured that I might as well try to clone this one as well even though I have NO clue what to do with them in case cloning is successful. lol. I also started brewing some compost tea using the same ingredients as last time (worm castings, rock dust, biochar, lime, bentonite, neem meal, kelp meal) but as I'm planning to foliar feed this round I put all the ingredients in a large teabag. Helps to avoid clogging up the spray nozzle. I was hoping to put off watering until tomorrow as they are getting tea then but the girls were really thirsty so I gave each around 2 liters of ph 6.2 water. Oh, I saw another 3 gnats stuck to the right sticky trap so obviously, there are some still around but that isn't unexpected as the nematodes don't help against already adult gnats. In any case, the population seems small considering how few have been stuck to the traps and I haven't seen any flying around.

These girls are looking amazing the sparkly glitter everywhere, they are nearly on week 5 flowering, the smell they are putting out is grape gas OG Kush with some orange peel diesel funk. ⛽️

I placed the 2 seeds in a damp paper towel and placed it into a closed Tupperware. The tupperware was placed in my stereo cabinet (warmest place I could find) and less than a day taps roots were showing. I then placed them in my humidity dome and within 18hrs I had roots sprouting thru the bottom of the sponge. This has been the best start I have yet to have. I also built a new RDWC system with waterfalls to veg and flower these two in. I have photos and video above on the new tent setup. I have it running with just regular tap water until the seedlings are ready to go in. I have also installed a 90gpd RO system (APEC brand) under my kitchen sink. The water comes out 5.8ph and 7ppm. I will be using this RO water thru the entire grow with some Cal-mag of course. The system holds about 25 gallons total of water. The main res is 17 gallons and the two buckets are 5 gallons. I will no longer be using air stones. I have a recirculating pump in the main res, waterfalls in the buckets and of course the main pump running the whole system. Should be plenty of air for the roots. I used 2 in return pipes in the hopes of avoiding roots clogging the pipes. I scrogged last time but I'm not sure I will be going that route. I might just top and train. I will be doing a major defoliation on one and just simple trimming on the other. I am trying to find out if the risks of stressing the plant are worth the returns. Well wish me luck....and away we go.

Bomb week!! All pictures/ video was takken on day 9 and i gotta say its looking wild. I Didnt expect them both to start growing so crazy. Lst really seemed to help some of these just explode with tops. I feel like compared to my first indoor run these are like a week ahead, as far flowering goes. Wich is also interesting because Double Ds can go for 9-10 weeks! Cant wait to see how these babies do there thang One problem actually i found a little bit of aphids nothing crazy but im going to continue using the growsafe insecticide/fungicide/pesticides.

Esos fumetillas, que actualizo esas bombas de candy caramelo 💣 del banco Zambezaseeds. Y es que ya no les queda nada, estoy pensando en cortarlas con varios días de diferencia, pero ya veremos eso aún está por decidir. La cuestión es que mirar lo sanas que han llegado hasta el final y a sido Gracias al led que me mando mars hydro. Esta semana no se echo nada de productos y hasta el corte es lo que seguiré haciendo, con cada riego se alimente la planta con nutrientes o no se tiene que calibrar el ph, mantener la humedad por debajo del 50% Y la temperatura mantenerla entre 22/26 grados. La flor no es muy grande pero está compacta, tiene bien de resina, el olor es un olor dulce como a chicle de fresa. Muy peculiar y llamativo. Hasta aquí todo lo de esta semana, disfruten los vídeos y muy buenos humos gente

Day 40-47 (May 31st- June 7th) (Day 41) For the first time in this grow these plants are looking halfway decent. Smell is ramping up too. I finally feel optimistic about this grow. (Day 42) The two jacks and the chunky blueberry are showing early signs of N/Mg deficiencies. I know it’s late in flower but since I’m experimenting with this tent, I’m going to give them one final feeding of nature’s pride 2-5-5.5 (tbsp) along with a teaspoon of oyster shell flour and some rock dust. Everything else I’m going to give a teaspoon of rock dust and oyster shell. There is no way these amendments will fully break down in time to be used by the plant but they could at least use the pH buffering and trace amounts of minerals after their recent leach. Everything but the BAOGC is covered in pistils that don’t really match their bud size. I hope they fill into their pistils because an over abundance of hairs drops the bag appeal like crazy. Over the last few cycles, indoor and outdoor, I’ve definitely learned that different strains and phenotypes mature at different times. Sometimes really radically too. (Day 43) None of the plants are fading at all but they’re still looking good. Black garlic I know should be fading but remains dark green and toxed. I popped a developing seed out of the main bud too. I wonder if that blueberry herm branch pollinated it at all. It seems like plants don’t really like that Destiny dark matter soil by itself. I find it works better mixed with coco or promix 1:1. (Day 44) I’m starting to think I might be mixing up the TWOG and BAOGC. BAOGC took forever to fatten up last round and the 2 phenos I suspected already look done. I was thrown off by the similar terps. The beauty phenos are definitely TWOG (Day 45) God these Jack Herer’s smell good. Nothing but fruity funk. Almost like a vanilla or blueberry yogurt. I would say this stuff has the most overpowering smell in the tent now. I’ve noticed they’re starting to foxtail like crazy. Blueberry#1 too. I’m watering a final low strength feeding of seaweed extract on everything. (Day 47) Everything really fattened up this week. Even at the beginning of the week I was saying I didn’t think they would fill out. Jack Herer and BAOGC specifically made some big gains and nearly doubled their density and still have quite a way to go on them too! The smell has ramped up and finally, everything is looking happy and healthy.

420Fastbuds FBT2303 Week 9 Weekly update on these magnificent plants. Both appear to be swelling up nicely at the colas and lower flower sites. Starting to see some fade/yellowing in the leafs but should be expected at this stage of flower. I'll most likely stop feeding nutes this week and go with just pH water from then on. No complaints so all in all Happy Growing.
