During week 7 the 3 plants continue to grow outstandingly well! The BADAZZ-CHEESE and ZHEETOS from BIG BUDDHA SEEDDS have a healthy green color and grow so much foliage that I have to defoliate on a regular basis. On day 43 (=flowering day 19) I take off all bigger fan leaves in order to ensure a better airflow thru the closet. The humidity is unfortunately still on the high side and sometimes exceeds 80% in the daily maximum, that is MUCH too high during flowering. I increased the dose of BIO NOVA nutrients according to their feeding scheme and all plants LOVE IT! The ZHEETOS #1 plant grows much taller than her sister ZHEETOS #2, therefore I decide to SUPER-CROP her on Day 48 (=FD 23). This technique developed by SOMA from SOMA-SEEDS is one of my favorites and I use it since years in order to bush out plants, which grow to high. Appr. 15-20 cm from the top of the plant, right above an internode, I take the main stem between two fingers and press very hard until I can feel the fibres inside the stem brake. By slowly pressing all around the diameter of the stem I create a weak spot at which I bend over the stem, so it looks 90-180 degrees downward. I do this very carefully to NOT BRAKE the outer skin of the stem while I bend the stem downwards. Even if some fibres brake, the stem will repair itself within a few days to a week and then start to point upwards again...👍😃 During the time the main stem needs to repair itself, all other side-stems will grow more upwards and this makes the plant bush out more. At the same time a super-cropped plant will produce bigger buds at harvest time, than a plant where you did not do that. Somehow the plant reacts to being hurt by getting stronger and producing more! CHECK OUT THE VIDEO ABOVE TO SEE ME SUPER-CROP! 😎 I also took a video ONE DAY after the procedure (on DAY 49), in order to show how resilient the plant is and how much she immediately repairs herself. Already then the main top has turned and points upwards to the light again, ITS FANTASTIC TO SEE! Simply a miracle plant...

New rule: If your fan leaves aren't bigger than your hand and super green after a month of veg in 3 gallon pot then you got the wrong genetics or something.

Day 22, 10-2-24: I did some trimming on them today for the first time! They needed some soil added, and I clipped the first 2 nodes and got them looking good! Day 23, 10-3-24: They are absolutely amazing. So vigorous... Great genetics... One of the few genetics companies I've gotten 100% ratios on popping seeds. These ladies are going to be some fine looking ones.. The bigger pot is definitely larger, but oddly, the six inches of soil is bigger than the control five gallon. Didn't expect that but it is what it is 🤷 Day 24, 10-4-24: The leaves on 1 and 2, and it has to be heat. I lifted the aglex 240 w about 6 inches this morning, the lights were reading good, and it doesn't feel hot under the light at their level, so IDK why they are curling. Day 25, 10-5-24: They are continuing to grow steady and robust. They are all generally the same again, and they feel good and flexible. Going to start lst'ing soon. Day 26, 10-6-24: I did some training on #1 and 2. 3, the control, is, lacking. Both more and less soil is doing better than the 5 gal.. 🤷 Life's a garden, dig it? Day 27, 10-7-24: I finally got my room moved around and got my 400 w Aglex in there and I have them at 17 inches from the light at 50% for around a 600ish par. Day 28, 10-8-24: They are growing like crazy! All except the control. #1 and 2 are doing great and are ready to be trained out more. #3 is slowly growing and it's just creeping along...

---E1/2/3--- All trimmed and bagged! I'll be taking pics later tonight and adding the harvest "update" in the journal. I'll have all the stats about weight and whatnot there. ---E4 and DL2--- Day 62F today! I'm chopping E4 tonight, so my next update will include her in the overall Eucalypto harvest update that I do later on tonight. The Don Lemon is just chugging along. Looks hungry but I'm not going to give her anything now lol. I'll give her another few days and chop. Haven't checked the trichomes too deeply yet. Seeing cloudy but lots of clear, but I only checked 1 or 2 lowers. E4 is definitely ready lol. I mean, just look at her in that video (edit: just watched the video as it uploaded here, and it got resized because that does NOT do it justice. The raw video is insane). SHEESH. Imagine someone doused a tire in gasoline and lit it on fire. That's what she smells like. 😷😵 Thanks for reading my journal! Stay up!

Well i wanted to harvest , but trichomes say wait a lil , so i give em some days or a week, plants getting ph corrected water only since a week. I'm still unsure to harvest all or only the big ones and give the bottom buds and the Mutant "Haze" Lemon Orange another week... But overall i'm impressed and satisfied with the results , guess in germanation seeds may got a lil too warm and thats why Gran Jefa hermaphrodited and other Fullgas Not growed. Can't wait to harvest 😁 Left Gran Jefa, right back Fullgas , right Front and mid Lemon Orange.

Don't have a lot of time these days to take pics so I'll sum things up. CO2 got outta control and the plants took tf off literally. The video is around middle of week 3, I had to flip at week 4 BC I literally ran out of room and I had to constantly defoliate.

Jour 64 flo +27 : Le taux d humidité remonte vers les 70 je ne sais plus quoi faire je vais acheter une déshumidificateur de batard , en espérant que ça change tout .. les têtes sont de plus en plus belle . J ai racheter du terra Flores mais maintenant je ne plus de canna boost . Plusieurs feuille jaunes je n’ose pas tout retirer par peur de mal faire .. Jour 66 flo +29 : je pense avoir une carrence en je ne sais quoi j ai acheter du cal/mag en espérant corriger ça avant la fin .. j ai aussi acheter un déshumidificateur qui permet de garder la pièce à une hygrométrie de 50% je suis content enfin

Day 52: La mia adorabile cream cookies è entrata finalmente in fioritura, sicuramente avrò avuto qualche parametro sbagliato, ma sembra andare tutto bene anche questa settimana, tardiva ma comunque soddisfacente. Adesso nessun errore e si comincia a volare 😍💚

This strain was easy to grow, short and very bushy. The smell when drying has an incredibly strong earthy/chocolate aroma which is very pleasant🤤.

This week the plant finally gets the tent to itself and I began training for a wider canopy , poor girl looks tortured lol in this week I notice a mutation on one of the branches fasciation which I show in the video I’m unsure as what to do because in the week because I want to switch the plant very soon to flower and don’t want to waste a branch but I kinda wanted to see what the buds would look like if I left i ultimately decided to chop it

Ehi ragazzi come va questa settimana?! Tutto bene?! La mia settimana è stata un alti e bassi di momenti di merda ... Purtroppo la ragazza tropicanna ho dovuto toglierlgla di mezzo xké faceva un odore davvero potente ed era esageratamente grande! Purtroppo stupidamente mi sono fatto prendere dal panico dalla situazione accaduta al mio amico che aveva i miei messaggi e numeri sul telefono.. vabbè è andata così ormai.. mentre devo dire che la Cherry cola della fastbuds sta diventando davvero una ragazza tozza e massiccia , con internodi stretti ma robusti! Sta crescendo molto bene , le God sto un po' di orgatrex e bactrex per continuare a fare vivere i microorganismi presenti nel suolo ! Ho trovato delle foglie con macchie marroni e arricciate che sembrano indicare un deficit di fosforo , ma sinceramente non sono ancora così esperto da capirlo velocemente.. spero continui a crescere e riempire tutta la grow , a giudicare dalle foglie a ventaglio davvero imponenti le cime saranno altrettanto grandi spero! Grazie alla luce di Mars hydro sempre di qualità superiore e agli strain di Fadtabuds posso dire che questa bellissima esperienza è potuta divenire realtà !

Week 2 – Day 16 Looking back: On day 12, Mimosa Evo #3 showed the first signs of a nutrient deficiency. EC was around 0.9 at that point – probably not enough for her current size. Mimosa Evo #2, which is smaller, didn’t show any symptoms. This likely means the issue was due to underfeeding the more developed plants. To fix it, I added some salts (EC 0.4) plus a ready-mixed nutrient solution, bringing the total EC to 1.3. The symptoms didn’t get worse after that, but the color still remains lighter than on the other plants. Transplant & pruning: Mimosa Evo #3 has been moved to the final tent. During the process, I removed the first pair of nodes. Mimosa Evo #2 is still in her original pot – I’m currently figuring out the best way to place her due to limited space.

This week has a fun surprise, Of the two seedlings I operated on as they where growing sideways in the medium one of them survived. It is quite small and is is going to be playing catch up all grow so may move it outdoors in the summer and just clone the shit out of it if I like the way the other plants go. Also if it bounces back fast I could try and incorporate it into the SCROG. but I kinda have my mind set on just three plants. Also starting a lot of my hot pepper in this tent with the Honey Mints, hopefully they will pop up in the next week or so and get good sized before they need to be transplanted outside in 8-10 weeks. Their seeds always take so long. Other then that plants are looking good and healthy. The bigger one has a bit of leave warping, nothing to worrying as its not progressed or gotten worse, likely from me giving it a bit to much water trying to flush out the high EC from before. Other then that nothing else to report, thinking of doing an early top on them to mainline all 3 of them. Big shoutout to Medic Grow for sponsoring the lighting in my tent, They have provided me with 2x Mini Sun 2's in the 240w configuration, They use the v1 growing spectrum that is a all purpose seed to harvest spectrum so their is no hassle of switching it mid grow.
