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...

Nov. 5 - start of week 6 and this grows so far gone off without a hitch. Third node on each side come’n out now so expect to be topping some time this week. Until then it’s all keepn er spread and low until we have our last 4 tops. The clone experiment is a 2/3’ds fail. The last one is hangn in there but probably just dying slower than the other 2. THANKS FOR CHECKn er out. More pics and video to follow.👊👍😎👌
Nov. 6 update - photos and weekly vid uploaded. Added a little blurb about topping in response to a fellow grower's question. This community rocks and the constant support and advice from everyone is greatly appreciated. Cheers y'all!😎👊✊
Nov. 7 update - so I lied and she stretched out from her second nodes over night. Bent er down a little and reset the thing ties. Alls good!
Nov. 10 update - they’re drinking a consistent 3L a piece on a 3:1 nute feed to ph/calmag only regimen and loving it. Trimmed off some fan leaves dragging in the dirt and covering the first set of tips. Was hoping to top again this week but it’s starting to look more and more like next week at the this point. That 4th node just hasn’t stretched stretched out enough yet. Alls good!👍
Background
After the batshit nonsense with this years outdoor grows getting jacked, I need some kush and I need it fast! This girls an indoor grow in the cabinet and she'll be manifolded and defo'd for 8-10 fat ass colas. They’ll spend a first week or so under a cfl assembly while the last harvest dries out in the cabinet. This grow is going to be nute sched. heavy and will hopefully test the limits of my smaller grow space (2sq/ft). Ive had my eye on a critical & kush cross for awhile and really looking forward to seeing this one grow out. Thanks for take'n a peek, stayed tuned, and happy grow'n folks! 👊

Outdoor coco 15g pots
Progress:
Lava cake is about week 6.5. Starting to ripen and get heavy. Buds are getting fat. Strong sweet cookie/ ice cream smell. Buds are getting more frosty. Buds are getting so heavy I installed a net on 3 of 4 and doing #4 soon. On my most mature plant - About 25-30% of pistils have turned color. Some trichomes are milky, none amber. Looks like plants are a few days apart.
Marathon OG week 5 1/2. Still stacking and getting fat. Smells dank. Trichomes are showing up. The 20 gallon OG is growing into a monster. I’m still waiting for the heavy bud stacks….
Nutes:
Bumping up ppm, the dry koolbloom and molasses, stopping regular koolbloom and grow. Looking to starting flushing the lava cake in a week or so. Feeding 2x a day; 3x on hot days.
Weather:
Had a good week of cooler temps until yesterday, when it was 97. Looking at hugs in the 80s this week, perfect.
Pests:
The moths and caterpillars are in full swing so I’m applying BT every morning. I’m working hard to reduce caterpillar 🐛 losses. We lost all of the top colas on a plant in another location 💔 . I’m only losing one bud at a time and not the entire colas so far.
Wishing fat buds and monster harvests to all.

Mais uma semana de poda top e defoliação.
As plantas que revegetaram , já voltaram a floração, estão em boa recuperação.
Difícil ter que segurar a vega sem poder mudar pra flora pela falta de espaço.

Flowers starting to form towards the end of the week, but first they were lollipopped at the beginning of the week. This was just the first of 2 leaf strips from under the canopy, to allow better air flow and to remove the lower, unwanted flowering sites. These would only grow into fluffy nothingness if left throughout the whole cycle, and would probably even shoot some nuts due to stress from lack of light/airflow, especially as im not using the most powerful lights 😅
Nutes increased with the adition of sugars and a slight pk boost to promote healthy growth now they're getting hungrier. All looking healthy and filling out nicely 🦊

Temps are looking to be better the next few weeks and when on a good watering schedule humidity goes above 50%.
I've just been bending branches that shoot above the canopy down.
I still need to update the measurements of length and distance to plant.
Lollipopped on day 11 (Jul 2nd)
the amount of lollipopped space down below is about 30 cm(1ft)
With this light I think I'll be aiming for a half foot(15cm) to a full foot(30cm) of canopy depth.
Getting the top sites as close as I can to 30 cm below the light so I have the top 15 cm of canopy at the most efficient distance for this light.
Optic LED recommends a spacing of 30 to 45 cm (1 to 1.5 foot) fixture to tops for flower.
anything further away than 45 cm will probably be fluff, but!
Anything fluffy will be left on and used for old school bottle pressed hashish.
My family, with exception of my girl will have to fight me for that hashish, it's been way, way too long since I had some good hash.
Plus there's no way I'm yielding more than a gram or two of hash from larf alone.
Plant height is measured from soil level btw, she's about 60+ cm pot included.
Moved the light up to 45 cm above the canopy again and I'm already maxing out on vert space, with only about 5-10cm remaining.
Switched the light cycle from 14 hours on to 12 hours on to be sure, she's leaning more sativa but she was initiating flower.
(Which I'm amazed I could even tell she was initiating bud development)
However having her re veg at week 5 would've sucked very much
So far the vibes from this run I'm getting is that I'm still nowhere near great or even good.
But I am, at least, slowly starting to get there.
Recovered from defoliating nicely.

Final veg day today, still watering straight water with Pro-TeKt (twice this week, 3 since I last fed) & the run off PPMs oddly keep rising at the pH drops was hoping to kick into the AgroThrive flower formula next water but I many hold off another time average run off PPM is 2768, I don't know if this rise is an organic thing but the plants look generally good to me.
Trimmed more & added one more LST clip this week.

Hello. This is the end of week 2 and the beginning of week 3 of flowering.
I think I'm off by a week, it might be the end of the 3 week, but I'll leaves it like it is.
It's sometimes hard to tell with outdoor plants , like autos, when they go into flowering, because when the plants go into their first week of flowering they don't show anything different.. It's in the second week that you can see a small difference. But I'll leave it like it is.
OK. Got these girls into the main part of the greenhouse on Sun afternoon.
Bent a few branches and broke one. Put a few paper splints on a few bent branches but they will heal.
Measured them yesterday to find the tallest Plant #4, at 80 inches and Plants #1 and #5 at about 70 inches.
Plant #3 is definitely different looking, More indica in that one. Lots of resin and smell too.
Plant #3 smell of sour and gas but I can smell the biscuit smell and it can be a bit earthy too.
The others are all sativa looking plants, and will probably take longer to finish.
Hoping for no white powdery mildew to show. I can see it on some other outdoor plants now but not in here yet.
OK. Be Great.
Chuck.

Ze is heerlijk gegroeid en de fruittoppen zien er verrukkelijk uit. Dik en compact 👌
Mama Mia wat een mooie plant.
De hoofdtop is te zwaar geworden dus die wordt nu ondersteund door een stang.
Dit was de laatste week dat ze nutriënten heeft gekregen, vanaf deze week krijgt ze alleen nog maar water met flawless finish.

The 2 of these beautiful ladies are gorwin amazing so far. Really I couldn't be happier with how they're turning out. Veg for an auto is so quick and they appear to show no issue's what so ever. Started brewing a molasses tea I'll fed them in 48hrs after its aerated for a couple days. That should really activate the microbes in the soil and give them an advantage on there journey into flower. Happy Growing

We should live by each other’s happiness - not by each other’s misery.
We don’t want to hate and despise one another, share the Joint.
And mother earth is rich and can provide for everyone.
We can Grow enough Happiness, In this paradise, there is room for everyone.
We only exist to bring joy into the world and The way of life can be free and beautiful,
but we have lost the way.
Grow High and Give the world A smile.
At the end we own nothing more then all our memories, lets make them amazing for everyone,
nothing to loose only everything to win.
A last kiss goodby, a second one, softer and long as a sign, that you are woth it.
That Everyone worth who loved and give.

She's looking really good so far and the smell she leaves on your hands after handling her, incredible! Her old fan leaves are dropping off and today is the last day I feed her nutes. It'll just be flushing from now on and checking in on the trichomes every once in a while.

just before flowering 8 weeks ago-I took 2 clones of each strain from my last 4 diaries - 8 clones total and vegged them with CFL then went to LED reflector mars 192 (400w wall).
now,my flowering room has just finished the last crop so i moved all 8 grown ups to veg another week and today i started 1212.
i will be adding 2 X 300w BloomSpect LED panels in a week so total flowering led power is
Mars Reflector 192 plus the 2units bloomspect 300 (660w wall).
This diary records only flowering weeks without the clones vegging.
I am having 8 plants with 660w @ 1.2m by 1.2m room - 10-12 oz dry is expected.
Pictures soon
Cheers
