Today October 25th is the First day of Week 6 In Flower. Received the Refractometer and got right to pressing. First I tried a mortar and pestle to extract the sap -- this worked ok but took a lot of time and force. Then I tried 2 spoons held together and squeezed with vice grips (didn't work for me). 2 Pieces of MDF board squeezed together with vice grips didn't work either. I guess I'm not strong enough. Tried a blender, a hand blender...neither of these worked! Then the vice, it was faster and took less force to extract the sap. Works great! Took leaves from top to bottom of each individual plant. (16 plants) Rolled a few leaves up, put in a numbered piece of parchment and pressed.....voila...sap😃 Refractometer was already calibrated and ready to go. Placed sap on meter, held up to light and there it is! My first BRIX reading😮 using $28 Refractometer. Going to change base nutrients to a "hard water" formula. So impressed with Harley Smith that I've ordered some NPK RAW products. Like the idea of micro dosing. I sent Harley an email and he replied the same day! Not a canned response either. So cool. Thanks Harley! AND he took a look at GrowDiaries and this grow✊😃 What a kind gentleman. 😇 Hope I didn't go overboard but I watered again today with amino acids and cal mend to try to fix this Calcium def. Will Brix leaves tomorrow and see if this makes a difference. The brix line yesterday was very clear and very easy to read indicating a calcium def. Maybe locked out from too much phosphorous or hard water? Watered Oct 29 & 30 Temp 20 PH 6.4 EC 1.9 Runoff EC 1.9 to 2.3 after at least 2-3 Gallons of water put thru each pot. Some pots Runoff were way off the charts😵EC 3.6! . Put water thru until EC hit 2.3 on 2 pots others were EC 1.9 to 2.1. Put 56 Gallons or 220L thru plants over a 2 day period until I reached a better EC.

Checking in with the 2nd week of flower for the G.Bomb. Defoliated the lower canopy to promote airflow and upper growth As you can see, shes shot up during the stretching period, Think its safe to expect another couple ft of stretch by the end of the 4th. Shes drinking more than ever, i'm going to increase the nute intake next week so she'll have all she need to finish her stretching. Looking forward to keeping you guys updated within the following weeks 😁😁

First grow completed, turned out far better than I could ever have hoped, the plants totally bossed it for all the winging it and improvising I put them through, but we got there in the end haha, Looking forward to next grow, can't wait to enjoy using all good genetics, already have some Bruce banner #3 seeds ready to roll out :) Thanks for reading

This girl is out of control with the growth. She has grown 12 inches and is not stopping. Seriously unbelievable. I think you can actually see it grow just watching it. She is going to be huge.

This strain is a really nice strain to grow and if you are a dessert 🍨 person you would love this strain, tho I lost all my main tops to mold nugs was to big and to dense, so lots a ventilation needed for this strain.

Into the drink for 48 hrs. also when i dropped 4 seeds, 1 sank immediately... so i dropped 5! if they all crack that will be MOAR space issues but i'll deal wit that then Will be my first run with my new Viparspectra light! I'm excited to see the results!!! https://www.viparspectra.com/collections/xs-series/products/xs-series-xs4000?aff=MrHightimes&utm_source=affiliate ______________________________ After 48 hrs in the water 3 of 5 have cracked and show big taproots!!! I'm gonna wait 24 more hours and hope at least one of the other 2 crack 🤞🤞🤞 Got home from work and the 4th had cracked! we got all 4 pots going! i can see what happens to the 5th but i'm super happy with 4! _______________________________ 3 are up outta the soil, the fourth should get out of soil today. Gonna be another good grow! That 5th seed is still in water but i think its a lost cause. But I only wanted 4 anyway!

Scrog Its new for me but in small budget space i get it. ... this its the way to go. Bomberry its a slowstarter maybe gave her a little more water in seedling fase. The pots are big and it was dificult to control seedling moist at begening.... Killed 3 seedlings. Wedding Cake looking good Purple Couscous Tink its going to be another beast. Share Idias. Sensores with possibel integration. i will make it work. Hope You Like This Diferent Aprotche To The Culture

Loved it all from the start! Could see from the rqs pot it thrived and the organic nutrients made it so much more alive! I mean I had little effort in her just had to water and add boost and I did that every fortnight! I’m so for organic now may try a one part solution next! Glad of the weights had so many nice dense buds on her and the initial taste was sweet and fruity and that’s before a full cure! Royal queen seeds deserve there place on the map 1 million percent

The babies 😍 have a beautiful look and colors, they seem quite filled with resin. Now the drying phase of 15 days begins after which I will complete the trimming and weigh it. By eye I can say that it will be about 100gr per plant

Hey growmies, Unfortunately I have no pics this week, as I am OOT. She is developing very nicely. Her main cola was super cropped to promote an even more bushy appearance. Any growth in the lower parts of the plant where removed and she was a bit defoliated in the top canopy.
