First pic is showing off some of the stretch that has occurred. We start “Above the Stakes”this week. -Sun 10th; it looks like the R plant is making a solid effort in its Stretch, which has just begun & is really happening. The L plant is flourishing and nearing the end of its own stretch. There is an image of the pair with 3’ showing on a tape measure as reference. Jan 11 Good things are happening as the circle of branches starts fill in ! ** as a side note, the Uv-B is going back on for 6hrs a cycle (3+3) after some more reading and the recent stretch action from the plant on the R. Nothing wrong with a weeks delay in nature between sisters & UV-B sounds like solid tech. Power is on again ** - Dinner-time after 4 days. - Hole drilled in overhead corner-bracket, to help Centre the Light. - Plants have been rotated a bit, LST (lashing-some-timber lol) re-positioned a bunch of branches/stakes, meshing the two plants together, in the middle. nuf snapshots. details as the week-ends. -Nutrient ratios are Max’d as the volume will continue to climb for 2 more big feeds. -rapid-start & cal/mg have already been dialed back a bit. My watering volume per/24hr now shows my water use in metric. That # is based on the last 2 meals and I’m now looking at 5 days without nutes... 14th, Steady progress all the way round. Moving lights and supports as needed. Reach continues on the Right plant, while the Left continues to look amazing -molasses in next feed (Sat), TDS to be updated 15th -the volume of water my plants have been receiving, has been larger each of the last 4 feedings. Extra time between feeds has been allotted and watering based on Pot weight/dryness is keeping the plants Full and Green. -The next feed will be half the volume of the last one. The goal tomorrow (day 5 since last feed) is to immediately satisfy the plants nutritional needs with a small meal (7 litres/2), but then it’s going to scream for more food. This time I will wait only 2 days and return to the larger volume and a 4-5 day cycle. That’s the plan. Goal was to raise both the volume and demand for more nutrients. (Without creating a swamp) It’s been kind of patchwork getting the numbers-up, and this is the first pause in that steady climb. Both plants seem to be firing in all cylinders. Sun Jan17 - adding Molasses to each feeding from Week 5 on in to harvest. - 2 days since last half-feed. Big feed tonight and 5 day gap next. -Reached my Max H2o volume with solid Nutrition #’s. Plan is to hold levels for week 5/6 and then begin to taper nutes & volume slightly in 7/8 and hold till flush (11) & harvest (12/13) ** this grow is my best effort yet, if anybody sees or feels it’s getting “sideways”... I would love to hear about your opinion/concerns. ** The buds that are forming, actually have some substance to them. Tired of Indoor Popcorn. This grow is hapnin

Gorilla Cookies is at about 10 weeks now. A surprisingly small plant but still looks like it will be a couple of zip. Buds are quite frosty and I'm getting lots of autumn colours. Maybe another week see how she goes.

As you can see, these girls are looking good they are growing and you may see more than you know of. I got one from a buddy who said he did not know what he was doing after about a month and a half so I said give her here I’ll take her.

Buenas cultivetas! Esta semana el clima tampoco ayudó mucho 😞 A pesar de que no llovio, se esperan lluvias los proximos dias y las temperaturas aun no son las adecuadas. Solo tuve 2 o 3 dias a pleno sol. De todas formas seguimos con los nutrientes de vegetacion el preventivo de plagas una vez por semana con jabon potasico, aceite de neem y canela en una solucion liquida. A pesar del preventivo sigo encontrando algunos bichos que muestro en un video. La tecnica deLST parece estar saliendo bien. Espero no estresarla mucho y que de buenos resultados. Buen cultivo para todos y gracias por leer mi diario! Actualización 5/10: Tengo algunos vecinos gatos que les encanta sacar el sustrato de mis macetas... Por suerte no han desprendido la planta pero casi... Las acomode de nuevo y parecen estar bien. No tuve mucha suerte con este cultivo sumado a mi falta de experiencia.

After what felt like a month of waiting for my seeds to arrive- I got them and got to work. I’m Only doing two plants at a time to start. Both toof decay seeds popped little tails in 24 hours using toilet paper and dechlorinated tap water and a DVD case of mothman prophecies- blockbuster copy. I planted one directly into my fox farms happy frog soil- now shall be called- the runt.The other I planted in a germ pellet and into ocean forest. My cat got into my closet somehow and destroyed the cloth pot with ocean forest in it. Destroyed. Luckily my little lady survived and I put her in a root rocket? Root riot? Anyway- that’s why she is in The corner of this 5 gallon pot with my runt. I am waiting for them both to get bigger before I move either one of them. My cat is fine btw- gave her a bath as payback- muhahahah. Anyway. As I type this it is day 5? I don’t know- I can’t tell time at the moment. It’s def I’m their first week. How do they look?

Crazy week growth-wise. Carl's exploded with growth, fan leaves are now relative to pot size. Another outstanding plant is UKBS 1, which has recovered from topping very vigorously and should make for an incredible indoor plant. In other news; UKBS 2 is still stretching. It's about 4" from the light now while the other plants are around 12". God knows why. The timelapse is up for this week, you can really see the incredible growth the plants have all undergone over the course of the week. Some LST may be taking place over the course of this next week, we'll have to see how the branches on namely UKBS 1. Had to move Carl 2 a little bit into the center of the tent as it was shading out/being shaded out by Carl 1. Carls are showing incredible symmetry, despite the top/fim/whatever the fuck I did lol. Updates are coming throughout the coming week; as usual. -3/21/2021 - Started LST on UKBS 1 and gave UKBS 2 some kushman's chiropractic -3/23/2021 - Topped carl 2 again at both pre-topped nodes, in the hopes it'll bush out some more. I'm thinking it'll be a very nice indoor plant. Also topped UKBS 2, again in the hopes it'll bush out a little bit and stop growing so fucking vertically.

This week I watered with recharge and split a gallon of water between the 3 plants and they seemed perfect, little to no run off, pots still moist and I’m watering maybe once to twice a week the most. Plants seem happy and cheerful, hopefully we can keep them that way till finish 🤘 but till then keep the peace and smoke a fat one! 🙏

Hey guys, allot happened this week. Mid week on Wednesday I did a major heavy defoliation, she was very bush and allot of internode growth. I clean up everything and allowed more light pen. Also nipped any undesired off growths. Shaping how I want the plant to grow. Basically lollipoping. As you can see I also started to install 4x 1/2 bamboo sticks to help support the plant once she gets bigger. I had problems last year late into flower and don't want to repeat same mistake. I also amended the pots with 70/30 ratio of 444 to 284 @ 2tbs/gal. Iv only water once in the past 7 days with the Aquabak. Not enough data to review the product. We will see. Other than that we have had plentiful thunderstorms and have not required to water. Thanks to the felt pots, they did not get flooded with the amount of rain we got. Prolly 50-100mm worth of rain. Thanks for updates. Enjoy the photos and vids

8/9/2018 - All of these girls are doing great and have all shown their white pistils now! The branching on them has taken off and they responded to being topped really well. I’ve switched them from my 4x4 grow tent into a 4x8. I have to say it is significantly better having the extra space to be able to water, move around and for better air circulation with multiple fans. I also believe this will greatly help with light penetration inventory they bush out. I’ve been having issues keeping the daytime air temperature down due to the extream heat wave we have been experiencing. I think I have tackled this issue by running the lights at night now while the temperatures are cooler. Tomorrow is the official switch to flower and will be on a 13 hours off, 11 hours on light cycle for the next 2 days. Then on a normal 12/12 light cycle. IVE read that this can help the plants switch quicker. I’m looking forward to seeing the growth over the next few weeks!

Beginn 3. Blütewoche Ausser ab und zu zu Entlauben wird noch nicht viel gemacht. Ende der Woche werden sie dann soweit für die restliche Blüte fertig gemacht (lollipoping, entlauben..). Bisher entwickelt sich die 3 recht gut🥀👍 Und beim entlauben kommt einem schon ein leichter Duft nach grünen Äpfeln entgegen Tank reicht im Moment noch knapp eine Woche (mal gespannt wies in der vollen Blüte ausschaut). Außer ein wenig Phosphorsäure damit ich ca. bei 6.3-6.5 Ph bin, kommt nix dazu.
