The plants have taken to their Earthboxes, especially #1 with the BuildASoil Light. The Earthbox with my Coots mix was the runt, plus I damaged the roots during transplant so it has an uphill battle, but I wouldn't count it out yet. It was looking droopy and with slight discoloration, but after a drench of Kashi Blend Tea (1/3 cup Kashi Blend, 1 teaspoon blackstrap molasses in 1 gallon of water for 24 hours) it perked right up. As for preventative pest management, I've kept doing foliar applications every 4 days of EM-FPE -> EM-1, next week I will incorporate the just-finished EM-5. I made a JADAM wetting agent (JWA) but I have realized even local bottled water is too mineral-heavy for it, so I will need to find a source of distilled water if I want to use it in my foliar regime. Next week I will begin doing LST to get some more tops going. At some point I plan to add a trellis, I have been busy with work but I will find the time to set up something, preferably a trellis that can move with the Earthbox to facilitate maintenance and not have them fixed in place for the entire training and flowering cycles.

SATURDAY 8/25: I prepped WW#2 for slaughter..one more good flush and a haircut. She'll have one more day in the sun, then it's a dark day and the axe. She's got a few resin leaks that I can't quite get a good picture of..looks like a drop of oil oozing out of a calyx. Makes my mouth water... Seedlings are doing well. I transplanted two of them into tall 5 gal pots and they are doing fine. EM#2 will get another nutrient douche along with EM#3 and both Candy Canes tomorrow. I'm thinking that might also be CC#1's last taste of nutes. An interesting thing about CC#2 is that while her trichromes are pretty much all cloudy and/or amber, the majority of her stigmas aren't withered...I haven't seen that before, but I've never really grown any indica genetics before this grow. CC#1 is delightfully redhaired. I jarred up WW#1 into 3 x quart jars, EM#4 into 4 x quart jars, and EM#1 into 4 pint jars (barely). Bought more quart jars later today and will rejar EM#1 tomorrow SUNDAY: I did the harvest report on WW#1, EM#1, and EM#4 today. EM#4 is now is 3 x quart jars. I harvested WW#2 today...yowsa! (see pics) I mixed up a batch of nutes for EM#3, but after a close look at everybody, I decided to start flushing CC#1, CC#2..they are both suddenly ready. 15-20% amber trichromes. They'll get a few more days in the sun before meeting their maker. I flushed EM#2 again. I'm gonna harvest her tomorrow. She's at about 25% amber trichs today! Really oozing the good stuff.. MONDAY: (queue Metallica's 'Harvester of Sorrow'..) WW#2 got the axe today and thoroughly saturated the air with her odoriferous emanations. A wondrous bouquet! The big tent is getting empty, so I rearranged the remaining girls for optimized PAR and spectra. I really need those seedlings and clones to hurry the phuk up. WW#2 is drying nice and slow in the top basket and EM#2 is now right below her in the second basket. CC#1 will be in the basket below them tomorrow...she's ready. CC#2 will also be drying in the next day or two after that. That will leave EM#3 (Bush Bitch) as the last remaining original member of this crop. Besides her, there's the Pineapple Express gift from my other diary and that's it for my bloomers. As I said before, I sure wish I had taken the fine print more seriously and believed that they'd really finish so quickly. I should have started these seedlings at least 2 weeks earlier... TUESDAY: I harvested both CC's today. They couldn't be more ripe. 68 days from seed...impressive. I just wish they had packed on a little more size in the first few weeks so that these super-sugary buds were bigger. This stuff is far more sticky and stiNky than the WW or the EM, but I'll be lucky to get 2 ounces from each of them. When you factor that in with the fact that I only got 3 of 7 to grow (one in current batch of seedlings), the taste/effect will have to be completely off the charts for me to even consider ever ordering any more of them. WEDNESDAY: I recharged 50gals of soil and have it cooking up now I gave Bush Bitch some water and will give her nutes on Friday. THURSDAY: The video I added today is the total harvested bud for this grow, minus EM#3/Bush Bitch...I'm betting she'll be 4 quart jars by herself. From right to left, it's: 3 x 1-quart jars of EM#4, 2 x 1-quart jars of EM#1, the 2 purple lidded 1-quart jars are CC#1, and the tall 2-quart jar between them is CC#2...the two red lidded 1-quart jars are WW#1, the 2.5 gallon jar is WW#2, and the 1.5 gal jar is EM#2. WW#2 was dry and went into 3 x 1-quart jars. She weighed 90g..not too bad. EM#2 is still in the biggest jar with the lid off and some bovedas. CC#1 was about 70% dry so I put it into a big jar with some bovedas and the lid open, branches intact. CC#2 was mostly dry except for her main cola. She went into a big jar after the photo shoot with the lid off and some bovedas. I feel so stupid..I had my diary listed with "published wattage" rather than actual draw wattage. My actual wattage drawn during flowering: 2000w Morsen blurple: 463w 2 x 100w Cree CXB3590: 108w 2 x 100w Citizen Clu048: 108w 4 x 12w Miracle LED: 48w 2 x 36w Higrow Deep Red LED: 48w 2 x 54w ABI Deep Red LED: 52w 3 x 1m strip LED below canopy: 27w 2 x 15.0 26w UVB: 52w 1 x 20w 3000k par38 spot: 20w TOTAL: 926w draw at the wall

She just keeps getting chunkier. Growing steadily and without issues. This is the last week I’ll feed her big bud, then move onto begin flushing at around day 63. My only concern about this grow is the humidity being a tad high and AVT being so big she’s blocking the light to the babies in the corners. So far she smells like pine/tabaco/funk.

Very easy plant to harvest, didn't have too much leaves, so very easy to take out fan leaves and prepare to dry.

D63/F15 - 11.21 - easily the most vigorous plants in the tent. The passion berry has unbelievable structure and stretch. She stands about 6 inches taller than all the others today. I have 5 more fem'd Passion Berry seeds. 😈Depending on how this one finishes and the bud profile, they might get their own tent next run. D66/F18 - 11.24 - Little LA sunset that was such a runt for so long is starting to put on buds all nice. Gonna defoliate her in 4-5 days. More pics to come of the big girls tomorrow after they get defoliated 👍 D67/F19 - 11.25 - Defoliation is complete! Everything is looking great! D69/F21 - 11.27 - the little LA Sunset is looking just dandy, a few more days until the last little defoliation session.

So, sad day friends. I got spider mites and had to throw all my plants out. This is what I think happened: About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed some freckling on the lower leaves. I looked at it and thought it might be a cal/mag issue so I added cal/mag that week and went about my business. I saw it about a week later and it wasn''t getting any better so I added more cal/mag. This continued for about 2-3 weeks until I finally took off a leaf and examined it under my microscope. I saw little bugs crawling everywhere and my stomach just dropped. My fiance did some quick research while I was panic ripping leaves off (see pictures) and she correctly diagnosed it as spider mites. I debated with myself and my close friend and ultimately I decided to throw all the plants in my tent away. I know that there are a lot of people who will say that there are things I could have done to make it to harvest but what it came down to is the people I take care of and personal pride. I consider myself a caregiver and I give away product for free that I am not going to use to my family and close friends. I thought to myself "Would you smoke this?" and when my answer was "ehhh, I don''t know", I thought about how it would feel giving it away and immediately made the decision to destroy them. I take an immense amount of pride in my product and this hobby and if I am not going to stand behind it I would rather just start over. I grow from my heart (shout out to the Grow From Your Heart Podcast!) to help people and make sure my family is not getting unsafe product from sketchy people. To spray pesticides in flower that may hurt people and have little bug carcasses in there just goes against that in every way and is just wrong in my opinion if you are giving it away to others. If you are the only one smoking it then it is one thing to take that risk but not with your patients. I want my medicine to help people, not create or exacerbate health issues. It is also important to note that the mites had moved from my flower tent into my veg space and took over my auto berry as well. Damn things are crafty and fast. So that is why I made the decision to destroy them all after 3 months of res changes, pruning, and manifolding on a slow vegging strain. Feel free to chime in with your opinion but I do not and will not regret my decision. I threw out my new clones, mother plant, and auto berry I had on my veg side as well. Shout out to all the other growers out there that do the right thing by their patients. Caregivers > Cash croppers. For anyone curious, I removed everything from my tent and scrubbed it all with a 20% bleach/water solution. All equipment has been wiped down and stored in the garage away from any organic materials. I will give them until tomorrow (2 days) to air out and dry and then I will wipe it down again with bleach and wait another 2 days. Hopefully that will make sure everything is dead and will not come back next grow. That next grow should start in about a week. It sucks but sometimes it happens and you gotta be ready for it. Lesson learned. Never bring outdoor plants into your indoor garden even if it is after just a day or two. A bunch of people on here and Reddit warned me and I did not listen. Now I have learned the hard way and it feels like when your parents "told you so" haha. Thanks to everyone who stopped by along the way. Stay tuned for a new grow coming soon. It is going to be some cool new limited edition Mephisto Illuminautos. I am pretty excited. Good luck out there and always grow from your heart folks. -Grim

--FRIDAY I mixed up a 1/3 strength batch of nutes plus a little bud candy to start up their high-carb diet and douched the bigger bitches pretty well. I gave a splash to the little girls too. I also mixed up a 1/3 strength batch of grow big and started foliar feeding everybody but the seedling.. I alternate foliar feeding with spring water misting a few times a day in total. --SATURDAY was a dry day. Only foliar feeding, and spring water for the seedling. all the girls loved their Friday dose...little gals notably bigger as seen in the photos. Tomorrow I increase to half strength nutes for the big girls and maybe the smaller ones if they look ready and continue my misting regimen. Tracking my package from Crop King..can't wait to get 3 more WW wet and max out my space! --SUNDAY the girls got some PH'd water and a couple of foliar feedings and a spring water misting. --MONDAY I received a package from Crop King Seeds! However, it wasn't my replacement White Widow AFs, but rather the Candy Cane AFs.that I ordered the same day...doh! Being the impatient fucker that I am, I put 3 CC's into a glass of spring water rather than wait on the WW's to arrive. The other plants already have such a head start that I didn't want to wait another minute to get the rest of the crop started. So, I've only got 2 WW's this go-round....c'est la vie. With any luck all three CC's will germinate and grow to specimen plants. I also mixed up a 1-gallon batch of 1/2 strength nutes and fed everybody...even the mystery seedling. DId a nutrient misting and lowered my lights about 2 inches and added a 100w (equiv) cool white CFL and 120w cool white LED to the mix. They and the 3 x 50w blue/white Par38s remain on when the primary light and ventilation fans turn off for a couple hours of CO2 "bathing" PPM's get up to about 1200 by the end of the 2 hours. and temps climb to about 87 before the ventilation and primary light kicks back on. I might increase the "night phase" to 3 hours once there's a lot more vegetation in the tent so as to really dose them with C02. The mystery seedling overstretched immediately and has not been impressive at all....we'll see...It's getting super-dosed with blues and whites, so maybe... TUESDAY: dry day....foliar feedings only. Dropped the 3 CC's into wet paper towel...fingers crossed. WEDNESDAY (July 4th): All 3 CC's popped! 2 had 3/4" tap roots, so they got planted. The other will get planted in the morning. Having learned my lesson from the WW's that didn't make it to the light of day, I created a mix of 60% vermiculite + 30% perlite and 10% happy frog and created "pockets" for my new seedlings in the center of 5 g pots. I mixed up a 1-gallon batch of 1/2 strength nutes and fed everybody. Mystery seedling is still pathetic..
