6/11/22 Today starts week 9, and the 3rd week of flower. I may have a problem in my grow tent! Stella’s tent mate might be a male, or a hermie. I don’t know, because I’ve never grown one or seen one except for pictures. I was planning on going out of town for the Fourth of July for a few days, but I was wondering how my plants would fare. I skipped 1 day between feedings and she looked absolutely terrible! She was so dry, and all her leaves were limp. She truly looked scary. I’m only uploading a couple pics of her today. I’ll add more tomorrow to see how she bounced back. Anyway, the point of all this is that I told my wife that I was going to skip a day and see how they looked. After seeing the results, my wife was not happy. Our trip may get canceled because I’m a responsible grower. 🤷‍♂️ Today I was going to give her an entire gallon, but she only took about 14 of 16 cups before the runoff was more than sufficient. I felt it was a waste to give her more since it would just run out. I’m still using the mid-bloom nutrients. So today she received 14 cups or 0.875 gallon of the following: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 4.7 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 8.5 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 2 ml The initial pH was 5.8. I added 3 ml of pH UP which adjusted the pH to 6.3. I didn’t even bother with my TDS meter today. I didn’t need any added frustration. Runoff was sufficient, and the pH was 6.3. Honestly, it seems like the first bit of solution just ran through her. The tent was warm at 86.9F, but humidity was low at 36%. I’m really worried about her tent mate being a male or hermie and spreading that to her and the other plant (Sir Jack - auto) that just joined them in the flowering tent. Hopefully I’ll know for sure by tomorrow. Happy growing everyone! 6/12/22 I wanted to add some more photos to show how she bounced back after feeding. The temperature in the tent was a few degrees cooler today because it’s starting to rain here. The humidity went up to 54% from 36% over night just because she was fed. Her largest tent mate (Rocket Fuel) turned out to be a male and was removed and placed outside last night. He’s enjoying the rain right now. I plan to dispose of that later. Stella has room to spread out for a little bit, but I’ll be giving her more company soon. My other diary, “Stella’s Cuatro” are her daughters, and they will be joining her soon. Happy growing everyone! 6/13/22 Today is feeding time once again in The_Good_Twin grow room. I’m going to try and be brief today. Stella took a whole gallon today, and had a wonderful amount of runoff so I can be assured that she has been thoroughly fed. I kept with the same nutrient levels as on the 11th. Look above to see. The initial pH was 5.9. I added 2 ml of pH UP which adjusted the pH to 6.2. Her runoff pH was 5.9. Temperature was 88F, and humidity was 51%. She has reached 45.5 inches tall and is once again almost touching the light. In fact, the branches that I’ve previously bent using HST, are now righted and almost back to the lights. Oh well. I’ll have to think of another way to raise the light or not worry about it. 🤷‍♂️ Happy growing everyone. 6/14/22 Stella is a thirsty girl! She took another gallon of water today mixed with more of the mid-bloom nutrients. I’ve been trying to keep up with her needs so that she makes some super fat and crusty nugs for me at the end of her journey. All of the branches that I performed HST on have grown longer, and turned up, and once again are at the top by the light. I feel like I’m going to have to do it again, but lower down the branch. She’s not going to like it, but kissing the light isn’t going to turn out well! Enough blabbering on… She received: CALiMAGic - 2 ml FloraMicro - 4.7 ml FloraGro - 3.8 ml FloraBloom - 8.5 ml Floralicious Plus - 2 ml Liquid KoolBloom - 2 ml The initial pH was 5.8. I added 3 ml of pH UP and adjusted it to 6.3. I’m still not using my TDS meter. There’s a small sense of freedom there. Runoff was about 20%. Her pH was 5.8. The tent temperature was 83F, and humidity was 61%. She’s HUGE, but she’s going to have to make some room, because there’s going to be a large family reunion this weekend. Stella’s Cuatro is going to be moving in. It’s going to be crowded. Happy growing everyone! 6/15/22 I fed Stella another gallon of water today mixed with the mid-bloom nutrients as the day before. Same nutrient levels as above. I calibrated my pH meter today to make sure it’s measurements are correct. The initial pH was 6.3, and didn’t not need adjusting. Runoff pH was 6.1. I’m not even bothering with my TDS meter anymore. Eventually I will, but I’m not in the mood for the frustration that it gives me. The tent temperature was 84.4F, and humidity was 47%. Her bent branches, and one or two additional ones are getting into the light again, so they were taped and bent over again. So, more HST completed to try and keep her at a reasonable height. 🤷‍♂️ I don’t know how I’m going to fit 4 more of her into the tent, but I’ll have to figure a way. Happy growing everyone! 6/16/22 Another day, and another feeding for Stella. The branches that were bent yesterday, as well as the ones that were bent for a 2nd time have all survived (so far), and their ends have started a slow curve upward again. I mixed another gallon of water with the same nutrient levels as the other day. Look above to see what she received. The pH going in was 6.2. The runoff pH was 6.0. The tent temperature was 84.4F, and humidity was 63%. I know all of you are tired of reading it, but she’s a huge plant! I’m hoping for a nice haul of top notch bud when she’s done. However, right now I’m starting to feel a little burnt out from caring for so many plants. Don’t we all wish we had such problems! Happy growing everyone!

September 25 > Harvest at dawn for the big girl. The usual routine... except I shot a time-lapse video this time to play with the camera I won last year. Clipped the top buds first - then the base. Took me 2 hours to wash all that -rinse - repeat. ---------------------------------------- Well this was an interesting summer with this pair of girls. I learned that I don't really need a container larger than 10 gallons in order to grow very large plants (in my neck of the woods anyway). Now when I say large I mean how much space they take up on my patio. I'm allowed to grow 6 legally but 4 eats up pretty much the whole patio. And the reality is I don't need to grow plants that large. The outdoor yield will last well into next year for me and everybody I know. So next summer I plan to do much more serious pruning to limit the scope and shape of the girls I grow outdoors. I also learned that I don't need an inverted tomato cage style support if my container is larger than 5 gallons. The Durban I grew last summer was in a 5 gallon container and there's not enough weight in there to keep her grounded. Once up to 10 gallons you won't want to lift the container much and there's enough weight in there to keep things stable. At the moment I've listed 450g as a dry weight for both plants (updated to 458g final). I haven't actually weighed the 2nd plant yet and won't even trim her for about a week or so (I'll be back to update diary). The first girl came in at 235 grams. I got pretty ruthless throwing away small budlets and trim this morning as it took me 4 hours to take this big girl down and wash her up. That's only because I spent half a day yesterday trimming Cream & Cheese and moving Northern Lights around... and it's been over 95 degrees both days... so I'm ready for a rest. Cannabis harvesting is not easy labor. Diary note > There was a software malfunction a week or so back and I was unable to add a new flowering week, whereupon it was determined there was a limit of 26 weeks at that time... so I didn't add any more weeks after that until the harvest week. When I added the harvest week, it appears the malfunction had been corrected because I COULD HAVE added a new flowering week at that time. I think there's only a week missing. Differences can be noted with dates on the photos. If I had a problem this summer it's because I was too anxious to get going after a long winter nursing shoulder surgery and I didn't pay proper attention to the lighting ramifications when the instructions were there for me, and subsequently started too early. Next year I plan for an early crop of auto flowers to keep me occupied until the proper time for a regular crop. --------------------------------------- September 30 > Trimming and processing complete. I really manhandled the big girl with the Trimbag, largely because I knew I was gonna have a pound of herb on my hands (way more than I will personally consume) and I wanted to minimize my hand trimming. So when I say manhandled here, I mean I ran it through the process TWICE, using about 40 rotations/spins each time. It probably would have helped to be a tad drier, but we're entering a cool spell now and we've run out of time. Mother Nature has decided to turn off the heater... which has turned my Purple Berry Kush a nice shade of purple... but that's tomorrow mornings's harvest... <sigh>... anyway... where was I... oh yeah... AMNESIA... <hehe> Trimbag generated trim on 1st pass = 217 g Trimbag generated trim on 2nd pass = 90 g Trim generated by hand after that = 186 g Final bud weight for big girl = 223 g Clearly, comparing weight of trim generated by hand vs by the Trimbag here you can see the result of my "manhandling". Little girl was in a 10 gallon pot and generated 235 g buds and 360 g trim. Big girl was in a 15 gallon pot and generated 223 g buds and 493 g trim. Final total bud weight 458 grams for both plants. Hope anybody following along learned something this summer. I did. 😎 The trick is to not make the same mistake twice. That's kinda why we're all here. Kinda. ✊

Topped N1. Using only water, and gave a dose of compost tea i have brewed, follows the recipe: ———Basic tea with a twist #1——— 20l unclorinated water, using a filter, but vitamin c powder is an option or aerating for 12 to 48h. 1 cup worm castings 1 cup bokashi 1/3 cup molasses, unsulfured organic. 2 1/2 tbsp Recharge Brew aerating for 24h, using a Hydro air pump. EC was at 0.4 and PH a bit low but used full strength no ph adjustment. A basic tea would be only worm castings and molasses. For a nutrient tea is possible to add kelp extract, fish emulsion, bat guano and so on, best to check the EC specially if using guanos before using full strength... Watering schedule is more or less every other day 1 liter. Tea every third watering +-... Next week Biobizz will enter the schedule in a discrete dosage. For this strain i’m Running two plants, one is behind.

Day 29, I’ve been slowing a little bit with fer too loser as I m going into flow and I used an all mix soil from biobizz that’s already charged with an high ec, I don’t wanna risk any over, I left it for one week with just water and regulator, the development of roots will help to absorbs the ec present in the soil so I will restart to fertilise next week. I’m using the complete line from aptus and I’m really satisfied I see how healthy the littles are. I will have my lamp 40 cm for this week and I’ll Move to 33 at the end of this week Day 32 this OS is flowering supersoeedy, I can already see buds, i had one of last lst just give her a more clean structure. I stopped to fertilise in the last 5 days, I just gave ph controlled water and yesterday 0.5 lt of water with just regulator and calmag. I wanted the plant to eat all the nutrients I gave during veg, I think this worked pretty well as I I saw her growing every day and I can. See an healthy nice green on leaves . I think that max tomorrow I’ll start again with fertiliser. Day 33 the orange sherbert is really running fast. I restarted feeding her today, flowering feedings started. Let’s goo Let’s goo!!

Comenzaré este diario con un esqueje de una Moby - D de BSF, este es un esqueje bastante particular ya que salió por casualidad, se me quebró la planta madre en la punta y tuve que realizar un corte en diagonal con tijeras desinfectadas para completar de cortarla. Esta punta ya tenia aproximadamente unos 4 a 5 centímetros de altura, por lo que inmediatamente lo puse en un vaso con agua. luego de la pena porque se me quebró un lindo apical, pensé en untar el esqueje en un poco de aloe vera y pasarlo a un vaso plástico de 0,5 Litros, en sustrato Light mix de biobizz. pero el sustrato lo mezcle con perlita para intentar mantener mas la humedad. una vez listo el esqueje en su medio de propagación lo deje 24 horas en oscuridad absoluta para luego darle por 4 semanas de luz del tenue de (30w) (14 luz / 10 oscuridad). 23 de octubre: Le agregue mulch de trigo a la maceta.

Always a very pleasing on the eye strain to grow and was surprisingly easy to get a good yield with such a short veg and almost no training. Quality is pretty much 10/10

Graduated, and am off from work for a few weeks, so went overboard on photos. Plant is doing well, leaves are starting to turn yellow (strain trait). Can't wait for the harvest and being able legally gift my xmas ornaments to my cousins during our "cousins walk" at our family xmas party.

Fue como la semana anterior sigo alternando riegos con abono si abono no y esta semana uno de los días se me quedó la luz encendida y tuvieron 36 horas seguidas de luz, espero no les pase nada grave. Por lo demás todo bien

I’m going to leave the seedlings in the small brown pots until their 1st node and then I’ll transfer them into bigger plastic 3.5gal pots with 80/20 soil to perlite potting mix. One Dosidos is looking a bit behind and the one with the weird leaves ended up catching up to the Northern Lights, maybe even growing faster than it. All Dosidos’ ended up dying but one and I’m sure it’s on the way out. Northern Lights has had no issues and growing perfect.

It's still too hot outside to do anything to lower the temperature, but despite everything, the girls are doing very well.

Valentina is coming to an end, I have an infinite love towards my plant so I mashed every photo of her into one video in order to see how she has grown over these 4 months.
