OG Kush, aka Olga was easy to grow. She was the tallest at 31 inches and had strong stems to support her buds. However, being the tallest, she suffered the most heat stress and was the first to show cal-mag deficiency. Og Kush aka Olga, was my first diary, initially planned to combine all my plants in one until I found out that for contests, you have to have single strain. So I jumped in feet first and ran 3 separate diaries. This was a bit much for me. I am totally inexperienced on growing cannabis, much less track the grow with all the nuances on an unfamiliar platform. I really intended to enter Olga in the Newbie contest, but I woke up one morning and Bam, I was an apprentice. With 3 failed germinations, 3 new diaries and no harvest surely was not deserving at that time. Because I'm running 3 diaries, when growmies visited, they checked out all of them and my likes increased significantly. 3 diaries 15 weeks,=45. easy to see the math. So here I am. First, I want to thank Andrew @LegacyMarketFarms for introducing himself to me my first week here. He invited me to his tutorial videos on Youtube. Every Sunday I watched one or two weeks at a time while I folded the laundry. I watched some over and over, taking notes along the way finding tips for that weeks progress. While I could understand many of the concepts, I never quite achieved them. I struggled with VPD in many forms: from not enough humidity during Veg to too much RH during flower. It's a world turned upside down. I was happy when he was recognized as a Guru 👏. Congrats again Andrew. Secondly, Warm thanks to @Ex_Alchemist and @StarLorr for helping me with platform technology problems. After emails to GD went unanswered, they offered suggestions for me to try and fix. When I kept getting blocked, they listened to me express my frustrations and anxiety this was giving me. They kept encouraging me to hang in there. I was ready to quit but I know I need to be here. My apologies to all that got blocked for 7 hours because you visited my diaries. Thanks for sticking around anyway. And my apologies to those that I did not chat with following a visit or comment because I was blocked. It is a two-way street. A big thanks to @m0use. Your comment on Premium Cultivars, made my light bulb click on for what was causing my continued 7 hour punishments. I had links in my diary comments to other cannabis sites, electroculture, recipe sites. etc. Since I've cleaned up the links, I haven't been blocked😊👏. Thanks to all the growmies that responded to my grow questions. Particularly my medical question as that is why I'm here. You shared with me your personal journeys and health issues and what works for you and what might be good strains for me to start with. I won't name names; you know who you are. My prayers 🙏 and blessings to each of you For all of my questions, I had a difficult time choosing the best answer. Know that I have learned from al of you. I'm here to learn to grow and have fun doing it. I entered some contests but no luck. My curiosity got the better of me and I went looking at the champions DreamIt @Ju_Bps, @gottagrowsometime, @love_2_grow, @ZombieKushAddicted and so many more diaries with contest wins. I saw beautiful plants, perfectly grown, but also fun presentations using technology. There's that word again. My extra special thanks 😘 to @DreamIt who has spent hours tutoring me in video technology. How to make a video, add music and add an avatar. I have a few short videos but while the music i selected was perfect for the theme, the music has copyrights and doesn't upload. I'll keep trying. In closing this diary OG Kush (Olga) and grow cycle with Purple Chill (Penny) and Gorilla Glue (Gigi). My thanks go out to all of you for assisting on those diaries as well. My sincere thanks to all that visited, liked, commented and/ or followed me. Happy growing and have fun.

So, now I consider the little ladies are entering the vegetation phase, leaves are getting bigger and they are more aesthetic now in relation to the stem, Still under the t5 light, the chocolate almost touching the lamp but no problem with that. Just put them inside of a card box, more warm and I think they react nicely to that :) maybe one more week and they're going to the 10L pots and under the 400w agrolite, and we reach the pure grow phase ;) . What do you say?! Thanks for your time and happy grow to everyone! Little update 13/03 My babies still growing nice, no problems or at least no big ones... I think the marks on the chocolate leaves are dissapearing, she's doing it :) The spirit is on its way too, super healthy. Update 16/03 So! First feeding for the little ones. Actually I put 1ml in an half litre bottle and gave them just half bottle cause about 20% of water run out and I think that was pretty enough for now. I want to go slowly on nutrients to make sure they accept it well. Bye bye! Update 18/03 They are loving biogrow, no problems. The transplant day is coming, I need to find the best moment to do that.

Week 6 Guys!!!! So To Begin, This weeks Description Should break down the videos and pics above.. Tent 1 - 1st week of flower - Gorilla Cookies - Strawberry banana FastBuds - Tent 2 - 5th Week of Veg - Tropicana Cookies Photo (random) & Mimosa Cake Auto Fastbuds Gorilla cookies - 15.2 in From Soil Strawberry banana - 14 in from soil Tropicana Cookies - 12 in from soil Mimosa Cake - 10 in from soil Tent 1 Was Given 50/50 10 tbsp each Dr Earth All Purpose & Bloom Tent 2 Was Given Only 10 Tbsp Of Dr Earth All Purpose Starting Off The Week With Removing All LST, Except 2 that i have holding down the Strawberry ^ as you can tell thats growing from the stalk up lol.. we did that energy diverted to the stems and bud sites, Slight Defoliation and ive Added the Netting to Prepare. Water is still aerated 18-24 hours ahead of time and still PH'd Between 6.5- 6.7 is the highest ive seen so far. The Light Cycle for Both Tents Currently is Still 20/4. I do believe Once i decide to Flip the Tropicana to 12/12 i will need to move the mimosa out to Tent 1. Given The 1 - 1.5 week difference in all 4 i dont see the move being a issue. Will Continue to Water When light and defoliate when i can not tuck! As Always Guys Drop Some Knowledge on Me... Questions and Comments Welcome.. See You Guys Next Week!!!! SIDE QUESTION: GIVEN I JUST FED THIS WEEK - WHEN TO I TOP DRESS NEXT... YOUTUBE SAYS WEEK 4 FLOWER TO CARRY OUT THE HARVEST!!!! <---COMMENT YOU ANSWERS FOR ME PLEASE

Now I'll show you how to do LST & Defolation on Autoflowering strain You should do all this in the third week of vegetation, after which 90% of the plants will continue to vegetate for another week (5 weeks instead of 4) and grow very large autoflowers

The plant has entered the strech period and is growing at quite a pace. I continue with LST to try and open the plant up, removing leaves that are blocking light from flowering sites. I've added some Canna PK13/14 to the feed ready for when the flowers start to bulk up.

All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 42 Morning check after defoliation. PH solution seems to be working! Almost no new spread of the issue/deficiency (regardless of what it was) Checked ppfd and got UL470, LL460, UR450, and LR440 over each of the colas. Temp/humidity steady still at 1.0 VPD 74F/63%RH/33% IL Vent scraped a little soil off the top to see that it's still really moist so I likely wont be feeding until tomorrow morning. Soil seems somewhat compacted, and ph readings were slightly lower, but still perfect in the safe zone 3 readings: 6.44,6.57, and 6.42 for avg 6.476 Day 43 Normal stats on VPD - same 74F/63%RH/33% IL Vent. ppfd over colas UL 490, LL 480, UR 470, LR 460 Still showing a slow progression of spots and yellowing on oldest leaves (like day 5 from initial occurrence, so very slow compared to past spread) I feel ph on a stressed plant was the biggest factor. Soil is still mostly damp to about an inch from the top but will be feeding tomorrow morning. Day 44 Normal status with VPD 1.0 - 74F/63%RH/33%ILVent -- ppfd (after dunk) UL490, LL480, UR470, LR460 Calibrated meters and tested - prepared feed water- started with 3.5 gallons of 274ppm de-chlorinated tap- used 500ppm of 80/20 veg/bloom mix, pinch of epsom salt and squirt of h2o2. Checked soil ph got 3 readings of 6.55, 6.65, 6.52 for avg of 6.573 so I ph balanced my feed to 6.3ish Weighed pot for reference and saw 13lbs 10oz- dunked pot for 10 secs, lifted and hung over drain container - recorded the stream and drip videos when I then replaced and checked ppfd again. Runoff showed 6.3ish ph and 2000 ppm (lower than my normal ppm of 2500 to 2600 my hypothesis is she's using them up so good time to feed) rare side view of main-line base included with end of process pictures. Did some LST with binds to train colas to position - I plan for 6 to be tied to ring and 2 in the center but at the same height by the time they grow past the support ring - I have them tied at the base of the first node and the pot - the center 2 colas are being trained too, but are tied off to the opposite side directly to the plant. looks like a hot mess for now - hopefully my vision will come through in a few days. Day 45 Morning check after extensive LST yesterday - VPD is all stable 74F/63%RH/33%ILVent - not taking ppfd readings as she's still under the ring and I seen these readings yesterday and the day before - I plan on taking ph readings later today, but for now this is what I got. Took ph readings - think I discovered hot spots of the woodash washing around the top - not detrimental since they are all with-in the range Im okay with (6 to 7) but worth note since I retested several times and got the same readings in these locations. also did a little more LST with slightly adjusting for level Day 46 vpd was normal 75F/64%RH/33%IL Vent - ppfd needed adjustment as the outside limbs were down to about 460 - so I moved the lights down to about 30 inches from 32 - and now the light measured 480 at lowest 490 around most limbs and the center is up to 530 - I will watch for light burn in that space other than that all seems normal today, binds are still holding as placed and tops are turned/growing. the previous stress and nute issues seem to be in hindsight now. Day 47 Soil ph was 6.54, 6.38, and 6.55 for an avg of 6.49 (last 2 readings were taken at yesterday's hot spot, seems to have cooled a bit now.) VPD normal with temps/humidity about 74F/63%RH/33%ILVent --defoliated today so ppfds were taken after that, outer ring showed lowest at 470, and most at 480 with highest 490, and center colas 500 and 510 Defoliation of 16 oldest leaves at first node where my ties are bound. I left the growth tips for last. the leaves showed what I hope to be the last of the ph issues scared on them... very much better than the last ones I took off LST of the branches to ensure that ties are still under the first node and level the tops with the ring as much as possible - I feel the better I get this part the less there will be any need for LST or HST later so, last thing - I topped again for 16 total colas - I might be reaching too far, but am also thinking ... 1st time gains experience that I can adjust later in future grows. Also removed the growth tips from the first nodes. So what's left? a single branch into 2 into 4 into 8 into 16 with all of the tops cut at the first node except the last set of tops were taken at the 2nd node and first was at the 3rd node - there are no growth tips or fan leaves between the roots and the 16 colas (hopefully providing all resources to those points only from this point on) fingers crossed it doesn't kill her and she recovers better than in past toppings. Day 48 The tent is a little hotter than usual so I increased ILVent to 50% and reduced the heater by 2 degrees. So far there doesnt seem to be any issue showing on the plant but dont want it to become one either. So I will monitor the temps throughout the day as well. ppfd was nearly same as yesterday with 470 as the lowest and mostly 480 to 490 around the ring with 510 and 520 in the center no signs of stress so far from yesterdays barber visit but keeping a close eye on the burnt tips from before - I suspect that if there's any place for stress to show up, that would be where to look first.

Gro buckets held great while I was away! Top soil was a lil dry but the plants thrived through the bottom feed they got. Smoothie is a lil slow to the party, not showing strong signs of growth.. Will be brewing a tea for them to give in about 24 hrs. I see signs of pre flower on most, will top dress with bloom and girl flower power.
