End of the 3rd week for the Orange Sherbet. She just got fed Goldleaf feterlizer. It's been a slow process with ups and downs. I encounter a few issues, but she's still hanging in there. Hopefully week 4 is better. I still got faith in her.

Few buds but fat and deep purple💜

6/30 I messed up and put 8 days last week so I'll have tp do a six day week to get back on schedule. Pounded rain last night I guess. Very intense but very brief. As you can see in the video the plants are found great. A few have revegged so I'll need to defoliate the middle. I could make a TON of clones but it's pretty late for that. I might clone a couple outstanding plants to keep the genetics. Still seeing some pillar damage. Might do bt tonight. I'll keep this updated. 7/1 Super hot yesterday. Reached 90°. We are getting SOME rain today and thunder showers day after tomorrow. Bags still had some heft and everything looked good. I went back aroundcand found about half were at the point of needing water. He'll, they probably all did. My watering can is 2 gallons not 1.5 as advertised. So that means I used 5 gallons on the garden (not watering the 50) focusing the more water on the lightest bags. That tenth planet I'm seeing more septoria like leaves. This makes enough for me to be fairly positive ill need to treat it. I have plant doctor but I think copper works better. I also see more pillar damage so I've gotta apply something. I also need to lst more and I keep to clean put the interior of the plants so they don't get pm. EDIT: IT WAS 80° and no rain at 6:30. Humidity close to 100% bit plants look AMAZING! I'm hoping this may be my best year yet! I won't grow a bigger plant than tjat blue cheese in the 50 but so far everything is looking good. I may add some nutes to the pink kush in the 50 due to tje slightly less green color. I assume it's just because the other soil is all New amd this was a mix. I defoliated lightly to prevent pm but I have more to do. I just wanted to get a video of the girls looking good. 7/2 82° at 9am. Glad I decided to water even thoughvi watered yesterday. I need to up my volume. Thirty degree temp swings don't help much either. I said I used 4 gals but I used 5. I had one phed already. I'm hoping this will be one of my best years. IT looks like it! I won't have that MONSTER blue cheese in the 50. It was the smallest plant anyway and shows the difference between using NEW soil and mixing old soil WITH new soil. It's a much lighter green. Still need to apply bt and do a little more defoliation. EDIT: IT'S 90° WITH LIKE 100% RH. PLANTS LOOK A LITTLE HEAT STRESSED BUT OTHERWISE PRETTY DAMN GOOD. EVEN MY FATHER MENTIONED (KNOCK ON WOOD) "THAT I DONT HAVE ANY SHOT ON THEM THIS YEAR." LOL. I UPLOADED A VIDEO TO SHARE. HOPE YOU GUYS ARE HAVING AS MUCH FUN AS I AM! 7/3 83° at 9:40a.m. I need to increase my watering volume so I don't need to water every day. I used 5 gallons to water everything but the 50. I think I'm underwatering. However it was supposed to be severe thunder storms with torrential rain, high winds and hail. I'll gratefully take this hot sunny day instead. However in the future I think I'm not goingvto add in the predicted rainfall in my schedule. Unless it's a torrential down pour obviously. Everything g is still looking good and I've still got some work to do. EDIT: ITS 5PM AND NO "GOLF BALL SIZED HAIL. WE GOT A BRIEF RATHER INTENSE SHOWER. AT LEAST THE GIRLS GOT SOME WATER. IM GERY GRATEFUL THAT WE DIDNT GET THE STORM AND HAIL THAT WAS EXPECTED. 7/4 Didn't even get a chance to inspect the plants this morning as the wife had a medical emergency. My father called me (as I was about 5 mins away in route) telling me my plants were drooping and one was "really bad." I figured that since i had watered consistently the past few days and it was only 70 not 90 that they would be OK until noon. Boy was I wrong. I've upped my watering volume. I watered EVERYTHING with at least a gallon. I may have only given the tens 3/4s. Everything was back up by the time I left but the one on the end. I had forgotten flat I hadn't watered that one and needed to mix another gallon to water that plant. Thats why that plant looks worse on the video. I think my watering is going to need to increase to more than a gallon but it's a good start. I'll keep this updated. 7/5 Had to leave early again but I'll be back before noon. The wind is still whipping! I DID go around the cage and lifted every pot to make sure they were heavy. Even with the heavy wind the bags still were heavy. I really need to get some shit done this weekend. Last day of this week. Still haven't applied bt or done the pruning that needs to be done. I'll update as I go. EDIT: MY INTUITION WENT OFF AND I DODNT WATER TODAY SINCE I HAD JUST INCREASED VOLUME. THESE ARE MONSTERS THOUGH. I WENT OVER AT LIKE 1PM AND FIVE WERE DOWN. SOME SEEMED FINE. THE WIND IS REALLY STRONG THOUGH. CAUGHT ME TOTALLY BY SURPRISE. IM NOT EVEN TOTALLY SURE HOW MUCH I WATERED I WAS GOING SO FAST. IT WAS EITHER 17 OR 20 GALLONS. I KNOW THAT TJE PROBLEM PLANTS ALL GOT TWO GALLONS AS WELL AS SOME OF THE OTHERS. EVERUTHING IS BACK UP AND LOOKING GOOD THOUGH! IM REALLY CONSIDERING LIGHT DEPPING THE 10S. I DONT WANT A REPEAT OF THAT PLANT WITH ALL CALYXES LAST YEAR.

Most pistils on the upper buds have turned orange started flush on the 9th April 2023 due to be ready on the 15th April but will check the trichomes before chopping

Purple Buds are amazing.I could not be happier with their color, buds are chunky and frosty, the smell is indescribable. It reminds me a certain sweet from the childhood :) and I bet it will taste even better. Later, I will show some more pictures for Industrial CBD which is doing fine. I will move Purple Buds tomorrow out of my tent for two days in the darkness and then - harvest time :) CBD has got one more week to go I think. Happy growing to everyone.

Increased CO2 slightly to keep above 1200PPM. Also slightly adjusted A/C schedule to bring temps up to 78F-80F during lights on and 66F lights off. Turned humidity down slightly to keep it closer 50%. * Topped off reservoir to ~20-gallons. ** CalMag+ - 5ML per gallon ** Mills Nutrients Vitalize - 0.5ML per Gallon ** Mills Nutrients Basis A - 15ML per Gallon ** Mills Nutrients Basis B - 15ML per Gallon ** Mills Nutrients Start-R - 4ML per Gallon ** H2O2 - 10ML per gallon ** 1.25ML PHup per gallon Watering: 03:00AM-3:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 11:00AM-11:10AM ~0.33 gallons per pot 7:00PM-7:10PM ~0.33 gallons per pot Reservoir: * tested 9:30PM * 2.50 EC * 5.8 PH * 69.26F * ~20 gallons * Topped off to ~20-gallons Lights: * Gavita LEDs On 20-hours (8:00AM - 4:00AM) ** 8:00AM Lights On (100%) * Gavita LEDs Off 4-hours (4:00AM - 8:00AM) * UV Bars Off 24-hours Air control: 69F-75F (75F AVG) (Lights On) 66F (Lights Off) 45%-60% (59% AVG) humidity (Lights On) 60% RH (Lights Off) ~1274PPM CO2 (Lights On) ~680PPM CO2 (Lights Off) Day 42 - March 23, 2021 Yesterday evening modified CO2 and Temperature settings in the room. CO2 has consistently been between 1200-1300 ppm with temps ramping up to 81F during lots on today. (Using scheduler with A/C to gradually increase temps when lights first come on and decrease them last couple hours before lights off). Girls seem to be liking it. Can see signficant difference in growth since yesterday. Last week, before modifying resevoir to DTW config, I noticed what looked like could be Zinc / Iron deficiency mainly in F7 (maybe mag, not 100% sure). It was only impacting newest growth with yellowing in the leaves. Don't believe it has spread to new leaves, but as leaves get larger definitely looks more obvious. Continuing to monitor and watch for any further advancement of issue.

Fed nutes at 6.3 pH. Runoff was close to 7 pH. Other than that they look like they're doing well. Very sticky and very fragrant. The leaves of the CBD Blue Shark are a nice dark shiny green. The Wedding Cake is lighter. The profiles of both are starting to come out in the flowers. The CBD Blue Shark has these long, dramatic white pistils. The Wedding Cake is starting to show its creamy colouration with red hairs mixing in with the white and looking very delicious. The smell is incredible in there now. Fruity and creamy and delicious.

It is getting more humid in the grow tent this week. I need to do another refresh on my DWC water right away. It's smelling slightly stale. I should have done it sooner and not waited for the smell to be noticeable. Anyways it's looking good and will enjoy a refresh today. So I touched a leaf today to remove it and after smelling my hand I had a urge to cut her down and smoke it. She's got an omg sweet aroma covering your hands that just makes me wanna pinch a top off and try it. I feel like a cat hit by the wiff of the nip. I'll been using sticks to handle from now on.

Started the flush this week. It felt like the right time. I've got significant nute deficiency in the upper leaves of the main cola now. What is surprising is that since taking away all nutes, several of the buds have shown new growth. I was going to flush for just 4 days as its a DWC, but having seen quite a lot of new growth, I'll probably just leave it a few days longer and see what happens. Checking the plant several times a day now, so it's being very closely monitored.

Everything is going smooth im trying to figure out a good nutrient mix for these ladies but all seems well I wish bountiful harvest to all Grow Diaries members and home cultivator

Great overall harvest from such a small light

Day 49 - Still giving the ladies just PH water with no nutrients trying to see if I can fix whatever is wrong with them😅 All in all the White Widow & Orange Sherbet plants I took individual pictures of are growing great & should have a pretty nice yield! Thank you for following & make sure to check back for daily updates! Happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼

Everything is going great, the planta are very healthy, waiting for the the bloom season.

Wow from start to finish was a great strain to grow the buds were covered in the most frost ...from the get go these beans were fast to germinate and grow with no issues when it came to high humidity or light intensity . The team at fast buds does an amazing job with there genetics .The plants were well taken care of and as a result she gave me super dense nuggets that are musky and sticky so dam sticky ..I would recommend this strain to any one who is interested in getting there first auto grow going or even a pro grower the company won't disappoint ...

The plants grew really well by about 13 cm. I put the photo period 12/12, they're really fragrant. I provided the right nutrients every day using mycorizze
