(Log date week 7, day 49) So this week was a mixed bag, Tuesday started off with me finding a spider web on one of the lower fan leaves on my Hulkberry plant and noticed some bite marks on some of Fat Banana. In my haste to give rid of the spider mites, i caused some minor wind damage to some of the fan leaves on Hulkberry which caused some copper spotting and a stunted Fat banana cola. After i correctly treated both plants for spider mites and wind damage, they both bounced back and started to recover quite nicely. I also noticed a difference between topping these plants at different times; i topped fat banana when it had 4 cola's but i waited until hulkberry's roots reached to the bottom of my 5gal bucket and she had 8 cola's. A BIG difference in their recovery and overall structure, where fat banana jump out the gate with explosive veg growth and hulkberry struggled for two weeks just to develop it's first set of fan leaves. To now whereas hulkberry is much bigger, greener and bushier than fat banana. Hulkberry has responded much better to the additional stress whereas fat banana has struggled or stalled due to the stressful conditions. All in all wasn't too bad of a week, except for the power going out for a couple of hours on Saturday which raised my grow-room temperature to 90f, i was able to put out a couple of fires this week without any adverse long term effects. I also topped hulkberry on the last day of the week and I'm going to continue to feed them Technfloa at the full recommended strength since they have both responded very well to last week's formula. as always my pic are in chronological order Mr. O.G.T

I use a tent 90x60x180, I put my lamp at 1 m and at 50% only, I use cotton disks for the germination, I’m gonna change #4 with #10 I think because she seems in bad health.

JOANNE'S CBD / ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS WEEK #22 OVERALL WEEK #10 FLOWER This lady started a little slow but definitely made up for the slow start she produced some fat buds and has a nice aroma to her!! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! THANK YOU ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS!! ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS / JOANNE'S CBD

Been wanting to try out this auto ghost og from original sensible seeds for a while and finally got the opportunity to get one wet. I originally started this setup to compete in the solo cup challenge, but I needed something that will be minimal maintainence and doesn't require hand watering. So this is what I ended up with. I will not be entering since I know it will bring controversy, but I am going to follow the rules and treat this grow as if I am competing. I didn't want to use regular solo cups because last time I had a lot of algae growing in the root zone when I harvested. I opted to use a black light proof cup. These cups were 27 oz originally so I filled them with 16 oz of water, marked the level, then cut them down to 16 oz. I set the drain pipes about an inch from the bottom so they have a little reserve if I have pump or power issues. I know people will see the drains as a way for roots to grow out of the cup but in reality I have to keep the entire pipe free of roots or it will clog and overflow. So I am actually losing a little volume due to this. I filled the bottom inch or so of the cups with river gravel to stop the perlite from washing into the reservoir. I am running a 5 gallon reservoir with a small air pump and the plants will be getting irritated 24 hours a day from an aquarium power head pump. I set the system up to be totally self contained and easily portable. It was all built from things I had laying around other than 97¢ for the cups. I will be keeping the feed simple as always feeding maxigro and maxibloom with a couple flower boosters.

Day 35 - Ladies are way taller than I could have ever imagined & starting to get extremely dark pruple😍 make sure to check back for daily updates & happy growing friends✌️🏼🌱

Top dressed with Gaia Power Bloom and watered in with GH CalMag. Hardly any stretch happening but the buds are fattening up and looking nice.

Outcome was alright since i had a mite infestation for so long, still happy of what i got out of the plants! will update on dry weight and taste etc. Also that was the first time in grew with “decent” equipment, since i don’t have alot of money to spend i got these quantum boards off alibaba & i’m pretty impressed off what they are able to do!

Flipped to flower as the tent was already quite full. The yellow/light green plant is still growing really awkwardly and stretches faster than any of the others. Noticed some spots on the plant that had issues in week 3, it's also getting lighter, so I started adding more fertilizer which I had laying around.

Second week of flush she faded nicely and finally had to come down as flowers super heavy

Time Change

Alright guys today is day 18 and she is off to an amazing start.. she got her first feeding yesterday with very little of silica , cal mag and Maxibloom.. I gave her her first soaking yesterday when I topped her and removed the lower branches up to the 3 finger leaf.. i'm hoping for big things with this grow, and i'm very excited to use Plagron mid flower.. thanks to Zamnesia Seeds and Plagron for putting this contest together, it is much appreciated by and i'm sure many others.. To anybody reading this I hope you are doing well in the contest. If you're not in the contest i hope you are doing well too.. Until next time, God bless and happy growing ✌️. Just wanted everyone to know that i'm using .2 tsp of maxibloom with the 2ml of silica and 2 ml of cal mag as of this week, but for some reason, grow diaries doesn't recognize general hydroponics as a company or any of their products.The maxi bloom and silica I use are both general hydroponics and when I add them as custom, everything is good until I go to save and then it comes up not showing the maxibloom SMH .. Just wanted to throw this in here, so everyone knows exactly what this girl is getting.. These three nutrients is all.She will be getting up until about the fourth week of flower.. Until then, I will increase the dose on everything slightly every feeding until we reach that fourth week of flower, and then out comes the Plagron which I hope works out great for the plant

Week 28 – Flowering Week 5 This week represents an important transition phase in the Pineapple Upside Down’s flowering cycle. Early floral sites are clearly evolving into real buds. Density is starting to build, and the plant is visibly shifting from initial flower formation toward true bud stacking. This change is now easy to observe in photos, making this a critical stage not to miss. To support this transition, PK levels were slightly increased. The goal is not to force growth, but to ensure the plant has sufficient resources to bulk steadily and without stress. Light intensity remains unchanged from the previous week. PPFD has not been increased yet, as the plant is responding well and stability remains the priority. Nutrient management and environmental consistency are the main focus this week. pH is monitored closely and maintained within a 5.8 to 6.2 range to ensure optimal uptake during this sensitive phase. No other major interventions were made. The strategy remains simple: observe, maintain balance, and allow the plant to progress naturally into heavier bud development. See you next weeek.

These girls were upgraded to 8" pots and top dressed very lightly with some dolomite, 4-4-4 and guano. I'm a very new grower but have noted on my last two rounds that my PK were often low (from the leaves) and that soil health just wasn't ideal. Trying to get ahead and create a stable substrate.

She looks beautiful, happy, and strong, the purple buds make you fall in love with this automatic kush by Dutch passion, she's being grown 100% organically with Biotabs organics. Can't feel any aromas yet, we'll see how she performs the rest of the way with her sister. ✌️🌱💚

everything looking good so far, plants are quite healthy check www.sr-organics.com and get a 10% discount on this great 5in1 fertilizer with "UNKRAUT10"

This week is pretty routine plants look good was going to flower for 10 weeks but most of the fan leaves are turning yellow indicating that it's almost time to harvest. There aren't too many new white hairs growing most are turning orange.

French Macaron hit peak purple and trichs are all ready to roll. Chem Brulee smelling amazing and packing on weight. Pineapple Meatball remainders have now started going DEEP purple. Could end up with a few head stash nugs off of this late harvest.

Mucha humedad vía foliar primer riego con fertilizante día 8 dosificación muy leve 👍🏻

Week 9! Day 65: 2L (pH6.8) + mild organic fertiliser from kitchen scraps. Remember the potato water I spoke of earlier? I blended it up with some ruined sweet peppers from the garden and some applecider vinegar & eggshell to give her one last, very diluted nutrient solution. This feed was aimed more at the soil than the plant. Bud bulking has come to a halt, she's fading. Nonetheless, I discovered some purple leaf edges on one of the buds in particular, I wonder if this might be related to nutrition or temperature. Day 67: 2L (pH6.6) + 5ml/l home-made fertiliser. I found some more information regarding the purple leaf edges here: https://growdiaries.com/grow-questions/54072-edges-tip-leaves-are-turning-purple Also: oops.. I noticed I accidentally had turned off the timer on the LED, as well as left it on 20% power the entire night. I was expecting to have to disturb her lights off period to look at her, but there she was just chilling in low light conditions. Also, she seems to have no problems running on the very diluted home-made fertiliser so I'm repeating the previous feed - this time being a bit more precise on the dosage: 5ml/l. As I stated, this is more of a fertiliser for the soil microbes than herself.
