3rd week of flowering looking great . No deficiencies , no pH problems. Did some defoliation and strategic leaf removal to let more light hit the buds.

Things are going well this past week GG#1 still suffering a little big from my mess up but over all she seems to be doing ok . The leaves on both GG#1 and GG#2 are both starting to gain some colour now they are starting to get purple around the edges of the leaves so pretty soon Im going to have some extra pretty looking plants !! :D :D :D Things are going to take roughly 1 week longer then I thought originally but thats fine ! I'm really looking forward to the next few weeks to come ! I'd like to thank everyone who stops by and checks out the diary . A special thank you goes out to my followers you guys are the bomb keep on keeping on !!! I hope everyone is enjoying what ever holiday they celebrate ! -Happy Growing!

10/12: Fed today. Increased Signal and sugars/carbohydrates...added humic acid. 10/14: As a web developer, I generally give a little more slack to other developers when their website is misbehaving...these things happen.... BUT...after a solid week of 7-hour text bans, I'm becoming FUCKING HOSTILE! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QcMhOFAVzE) 10/16: Fed today....increased signal and carbs/sugars again. 10/17: My pleas to GD to fix my ability to text/chat on the site continue to go unanswered. As patient as I am, I am now at my wit's end. I encourage any of you who know me to reach out to them and ask why Silverback_Guerilla has been, what seems to be, permanently banned from chat and/or comments. https://growdiaries.com/contact

Prepared 9 , 5 gallon fabric pots. Started presoak of beans at noon on August 31st. About 4 hrs then switch to pure water for 8 more hours. Around midnight switch to paper towel and plates. Set heat pad @86°. Prep solo cups with Light Warrior ff, on the 2nd of September check tails and plant in solos. Wet solos the day before and start heating them up on the mat in domes. After seeds pop in solos wet the center of 5gal pots until runoff and start heating main tent with the big pots in it. Transplant seedlingson or around September 7th. I'll try to remember to post a germination pic. I use rain water with 5ml calmag per gal with a ph 6.0-6.5 no adjustment to the ph is needed. That's how I water throughout the grow, unless I see a deficiency that needs immediate attention. Soil is a mixture of Fox Farm soils , I added pumice, perlite, peat, moss, ewc, compost, guano, langbeinite, dietamacieous earth and dry fertilizers like Dr EARTH Bud and Bloom, or Pennington tomato. Installing bamboo frames for LST. I'll LST and top once usually. Manifolding is fun but takes an extra 2 weeks for me so I have started to avoid tall strains. I've grown Wedding Cake a few times, also Chemdog and Gelato, but the N. Lights and Peyote WiFi are gonna be a new experience. No idea what PW will be, they were freebies won in the Seedsman 4-20 contest 2021. Pretty sure the Northern lights will be similar in size to wedding cake. It will all get sorted out over the next 7 weeks. Ill move them around until a conopy looks good. That 2x4 tent is mainly for germinating seedlings and drying harvest but can also be useful for overfolw or quarantine. The 4x4 is taller plants. The 3x5 with that vioer spectra 480w light is bad ass but does have limits on total plant height, really really strong light.Alright that's it, I'm back with no name or gender changes, had some success and failure here before, I expect that trend to continue.I'll be checking your darlings out. 8/2 added a few more beans to the paper towels. These old beans from GOG seem to be bad, probably due to the factory seed pack. They are blister packs with plain card board backing, the plastic is heavy butvonly on the top for protection from crushing. Obviously not good for storage , so much for trying to maintain humidity. Added six more chemdog millionaire and 4 more Northern Lights beans to the paper towel for germination last night so far all these chemdogs and northern lights haven't germinated. The wedding cakes spouted then died before the tails were a quarter inch long. I've never had so many fail. This is gonna take a while but I'll eventually find some beans that aren't full of dust. Garden of Green love ya but this is bad. Update September 7th I've added- 3 Black Sugars, 6 White Widows, 5 Hellfire OG, all failed they are just dry husk that sink and stay on the bottom of a glass with water. Out of 60 or so seeds I think 6 germinated and 4 actually became seedlings. Stating over with. 5 Seedsman Gelat OG feminized and 5 Seedsman Amnesia FAST feminized pre soaked last night then started paper towel method at 5am today. Still have 5 of 9 pots that are empty. What a fucking ordeal.im just gonna continue with what is up already and say day 1 was Sept 12. That's close enough for this mess.

Day 46 Started to show a bit of nute Def. Hope to correct it next week.

I'm just excited to get my harvest on here! I believe this will be my biggest of the 3 plants. I have it all mostly trimmed. I will dry trim a bit later and weigh. I will try it once it's dry, though it is tempting to smoke a bowl of the hash fur I pulled off everything with tweezers. More photos and a review of Platinum Purple to come. Thanks everyone @GrowDiaries for making this site and to the grow community for the support, encouragement and the wisdom of your experience. Grown from veganic clone from Buds & Roses. Dry in peace, my little buds! Dried in brown paper bags after a half assed wet trim. Dry trimmed after stems snapped and put into a canning jar to cure. Vaped trimmings with popcorn nug. Biggest mistakes of this grow: Not vegging longer Not using a PPM meter and using extremely hard tap water Not starting from seed Not keeping the space cleaner (fur & bugs) Not using individual trellises Not using ventilation besides fans Not using enough fans Best lessons learned: I loved growing weed. Being on this site in a supportive community made it especially fun. Small yeild but when you consider I pay 30-60/8th at the pot store and that this was my first grow and I feel lucky to have made it to harvest , getting a half oz out of one plant is more than fine by me.

Hot dry weather, so having to water every other day. Harvesting the StarDawg this week :)

She's growing well this week. Flowers fattening up a bit but she's got quite a few weeks left yet. 💪

March 8-15th: This week had moderate weather with some overcast and strong winds. The Plant did not have much of a shock after transplanting and her pistols are growing in more as the days go by. She is also getting pretty tall for being on a windowsill. Going to get some Atami Bloombastic for her flowering stage and hopefully we see good results. Any advice is welcomed! 😊

Really impressed with the gorilla cookies, strong, creamy gassy taste, dense purple nugs Not so impressed with the orange sherbet, airy buds, no flavour profile

Just water

Noticed some Nitrogen toxicity so decided to lower grow A + B to 2.5ml and add some cal mag. She responded well to topping was umming and uhhing about whether to do it or not but the time felt right and didnt seem to stunt her much at all. Absolutely amazed by the genetics of this plant with the insane internodal spacing and horizontal growth. My intents with this plant were to just let her do her thing but couldn't resist the chance for a fat canopy.

✌️🎃 Thank you for checking my cultivation. 😋 Finally they're starting to get fat.

17.3.25: So I watered with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4 with 4ml Xpert Nutrients Cal-Mag amino acids. I have really overdone the nutrients, I got carried away 😅 To try and rectify the situation, I've cut everything out except Cal-Mag amino acids. I will try to just stick to this with some Biosys, but I'm running out of that now, too. Anyway, with Or Without, I'm sure it'll balance out. Fingers crossed 🤞
