Dec 26/Day 16.25 @5pm: LST begins and at 8pm 1 top leaf defoliated for light penetration. Dec 26 @10pm: Turned bloom lights off (cobs) and left veg lights on. Lowered lighting to 12". Broke her main stalk and taped it. EEEE Giving her a short break from the heat and time to stretch while I LST her. Her humidity levels are up around 54-60% with cobs off and humidifier running. Dec 27/Day 17 @4:20pm: Both cob and veg lights are on again and the light hangs 12" above. Dec 27 @9:30pm: Watered her with 2.5L at a PH of 6.56, soaking the whole pot through for the first time. PH runoff was 6.71 This week, I started watering daily with 0.4L and by week end about 0.75L at PH 6.6-6.7

11/25 503AM Forgot to add Monday. DDA is done but I will keep her going because reviews take time ...SO here is a photo of the back of Christine soundtrack 1983 record. This was a Halloween grow but its now the Winter 25 to Spring 26 grow. 11/26 230am. 👍. 4am😈💡. 11/28 11am 11/29 10:04AM.... Recipe for disaster...Use tap water without letting it rest over night uncovered THEN use too much of a perfectly good organic like Tasty Terps to ruin the balance with non-organic nutrient mix /coco and damage the plants....Also, use too much Purpinator....its works great but I can not make it work right YET in my microsystem..... I thought I had it all figured out....but the LIGHTS WERE TOO BRIGHT. this is my first grow with Samsung LED's....88-93 Watts seems to be the safe range for flowering. at those watts they dont produce much heat , I dont have a light meter thats reliable I ll get this one from Amazon and do screen shots.

Cette semaine à était très riche en engrais naturelle et en eau !!!! *Fumier de vache pour les différents apport qu'ajoute cet engrais au fil du temps , *Marc de café , *Purin d'ortie , *Peau de banane *Cendre de bois Arrosage tous les jours en petites quantités pour aider à assimiler tous les apports donné Et voilà que c'est demoiselle ont pris un coup de speed pour la poussée , obligé de continuer le palissage encore à ce stade... Ça grandit , ça grandit !! Nous sommes fin Juillet , je suis dans l'attente que les jours réduisent pour le passage en floraison naturel grasse à la nuit... Je ne sais pas si je dois procéder à une grosse défoliation pour les feuilles du dessous sur le principe d'un "Lollipopping" , qu'en dites vous ?? Des avis ? Des questions ? Des choses à dire ? C'est toujours intéressant de discuter sur les différents mode de culture !!

🌸 Final Cure & Smoke Report Sticky Broccoli Feminized After 12 days of controlled drying and an additional 2 weeks of curing, Sticky Broccoli has fully revealed its final character. The flowers were dried under stable environmental conditions and cured in Terploc Grove Bags at 19°C, allowing the terpene profile and overall flower quality to develop exceptionally well. 👀 Appearance & Bag Appeal One of the most striking features of Sticky Broccoli is its visual appeal. The flowers display: -Dense and well structured buds -Heavy trichome coverage -Beautiful green grey and slightly bluish coloration -Vibrant deep red pistils tightly wrapped around the flowers The contrast between the frosted buds and the intense red pistils creates outstanding bag appeal and gives the flowers a premium appearance. The SCROG training throughout the grow cycle clearly paid off. Aside from a small amount of popcorn buds (approximately 33g), the harvest consisted almost entirely of large, uniform flowers with excellent structure and consistency (Total 318g). 👃 Aroma & Flavor The aroma closely reflects what was observed during late flowering. Sweet candy like notes dominate the profile, accompanied by creamy dessert characteristics and fruity undertones reminiscent of Gelato and Zkittlez type cultivars. After curing, additional depth emerged, introducing a slightly sharper and more complex edge to the bouquet. The flavor translates remarkably well from aroma to smoke, delivering: -Sweet fruity notes on the inhale -Creamy dessert-like undertones -A noticeable gassy and slightly plant-forward finish on the exhale The combination creates a rich and enjoyable smoking experience with multiple layers of flavor. ✨ Overall Impression Sticky Broccoli proved to be an exceptionally rewarding cultivar from seed to cure. The strain combined: - Excellent genetic stability - Strong training response - Heavy resin production - Attractive coloration - Dense flower structure - Complex terpene expression From cultivation to the final cured product, the entire process remained consistent, predictable, and highly satisfying. The final result is a harvest with impressive visual appeal, strong aroma, enjoyable flavor, and flower quality that fully reflects the effort invested throughout the grow cycle. A cultivar that successfully delivered on every stage of the journey.

All looking good with the banner. The frost is coming and the smell is developing. She has stacked well and I think she might give the largest colas of the smaller plants. Hoping this makes up for the fact that she hardly stretched. The small plants are being raised so I can keep them close to the light. The amnesia is trying to bully them all. Been defoliating continuously with this lady. Hoping that can stop now and I can just watch her ripen up!

Having sorted out the PH issue and the salt build up. These girls have enjoyed it so far... I will be looking to stack up each cola as mich as I can so I can yield as much as possible. I'm going short as I know these are high on Sativa. One plant has stretched very high compared to the other

Drying and curing always the biggest challenge for me due too constant climate change in my area, living near the mountains have its flaws too..🧐 Oh well still love growing..✌️

Chop chop, down comes LSD. A steady favorite in my garden, this girl is frosty, sticky, has dense buds and an amazing fruity sweet aroma. Will update in 6-7 days with the dry weight and smoke report.

Day 57 total (for plant 1) Day 8 of flower (for both) 2020-06-28 New week, changed the nutrients from 1000 to 800 ppm because I kept having to dilute with CaliMagic water last week. I tried jumping up the nutrients too quickly. No burn but the nutrient intake wasn't nearly as fast as the water intake. Pre-flowers are coming out all over :) 2020-06-28 Plant is still drinking far more than its taking in with nutrients. You really have to drop them a bit when you go into flowering because they start guzzling... Trying to keep them around EC=1.6 but I might have to go down to 1.4. Regardless, they are clearly happy and growing like crazy. Flowers are starting to emerge at the beginning of week 2 of flowering. I think that's a good sign. I continue to have to defoliate, especially plant 2! It's making these huge fan leaves every day. 2020-07-01 I typically have to top up Plant 01 every other day with water, so thirsty and growing so quickly, I wish it would stop.... I am posting an image of what I think is springtails. Gonna ask a grower question about it. 2020-07-04 Springtails don't seem to be hurting much. Tested and they seem to be fairly resistant to bleach AND hydrogen peroxide... They also seem to eat their dead very quickly and they congregate in clumps. They are bizarre to watch. Seem to have gotten a bit of nutrient burn on plant 2. I've kept the nutrients about 1650 but the ppm in the water keep going up because of the water usage. I keep diluting it down over the course of the week and it seems to be working.
