I've brought the PPM down again and kept the pH at 5.7-5.8, plant looks great first grow so very happy, Alot of Trichomes and don't know if I should be getting ready to flush and harvest, buds still getting fatter and she's still thirsty and drinking water but a lot of amber pistils and not sure if the crystals are clear or Milky but plant looks Great, just unsure when to harvest, I've reduced nutes a little more and calyxs still fattening up, gonna hopefully start flushing at end of this week for about 2-3 days in my 4gallon bucket

So, with these interesting times and what is becoming a fast evolving global catastrophe. I, myself, along with the rest of you ( I hope ) can take some solace in looking after our gardens, to have some peace away from the news, to give our ladies the best care we are able to provide 馃尡 If you ever needed any vindication or validation as to why growing your own is best. More than half the world currently in lockdown, and with MJ in short supply, our actions speak for themselves! Anyway, back to this diary. I done a lot of work on the room, invested a lot and tried to make everything as automated as possible. Everything runs on smart plugs, the hydroponic system is DIY and is RDWC which is cooled with a Hailea 150a. 6 plants is what I am going for this time, with a shorter veg length compared to the last grow. I prefer to wait until they show their sex, but if they don鈥檛 by week 5, I plan on flipping anyway all being well. I am using 730nm LED鈥檚 that come on 15 mins before lights on, turn off during lights on, and then they come back on when lights go out, and stay on for 15 mins. This should enable me to run 13/11 during flower with little risk. I am also going to add a UVB fixture to my custom rig which will only be used during the final 2 weeks of flower. I have 3 Alibaba lights attached to a custom rig, they really are awesome lights. I tested the room out with an Apogee SQ-520 par meter (PAR map in pics). I have dimmed them down, so PAR is around 500 across the whole canopy, this will be increased to 1000 once they鈥檙e flipped. I vent from my house, to the room and then outside, this increases the CO2 in the room, which I think helped the yields on the last grow, generally CO2 hovers between 470 and 700 PPM. My ladies look a little sick, but tbh, I struggle starting out in Rockwool, and things usually correct themselves within a couple weeks. With the quarantine I have struggled to pick up a humidifier that is capable of maintaining that room, so it has been all over the place since the start. I have opted to go with Royal Gorilla this cycle, let鈥檚 see if it鈥檚 as potent as RQS says that it is! Good luck all and take care...

Esta es una gen茅tica de un olor muy fuerte y pesado se siente intenso desde la vegetaci贸n , es una variedad muy resinosa con unos colores morados hermosos , probando las flores cuando termin贸 el secado y ahora curando las flores se siente un sabor terroso , al principio no me gusto ya que nunca hab铆a probado este , pero despu茅s al seguir fumando se siente un sabor final muy agradable. Esta gen茅tica se conservar谩 para futuros cruces y experimentar algo nuevo. muy conforme con la producci贸n de cada clon

Week 1 Day 1 - 8/12/2023 1st Water change Day! Such a special time it is when you remove the little bit of Nutes that you gave them as an appetizer and you give them their first real meal. Added 39 Gallons of Water to my system SILICA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Root Drip = 1mil/Gal = 39mil Cal Mag= .25mil/Gal = 9.75 = 10mil FLoraMicro= 3.0mil/Gal = 114mil FloraGro = 2.0mil/Gal = 78mil FloraBloom = 2.0mil/Gal =78mil ORCA= .5mil/Gal = 19.5 = 20mil Week 1 Day 2 - 8/13/2023 Everything is looking good the roots are making their way to the water and the new grow is looking nice and green. Week 1 Day 3- 8/14/2023 Everything is right on track, they are looking beautiful and in the praying position all leaves happily lifting towards the light. Week 1 Day 4- 8/15/2023 A little worried today her birth Twin the BA I am growing out is looking great and is raised towards the light and this one is just slightly under.. Will keep an eye on Her. Week 1 Day 5- 8/16/2023 Walked in and the humidity was under 60.... ohh noooooo.. So I added 2 humidifiers to the tent and attached them to my InkBird controller which is set to 62. Also looking at the roots and she has some poking out the bottom but just not in the water yet.. Luckily we are set for 14 days before next water change so the system will stay stable and her sister already has roots in the water so she should only be a day or two behind.. we will just keep tracking but she is delayed. Week 1 Day 6- 8/17/2023 Roots in the Water!!! Huston, we have a successful launch. This grow is on! Humidity was a little low this morning so I refilled the humidifiers. Other than that the temp looks great, the PH looks good, the PPM looks good the plant is in the praying position and all damage from the little drowning from over filling the cloning machine seems to have been fixed. Happy Happy. Week 1 Day 7- 8/18/2023 Yay.. week 1 in the books, roots in the water growth has started. Everything for growth and environment is looking good and on track, there are a couple of mutations with this Lady will keep an eye on those leaves. IMO this grow is going A lot during this week 1 then week 1 of the last grow when I had them drowning. Really excited on how this grow is going to come out.

Semana 9 La Sticky Queen entra en su recta final. Solo agua en los riegos para que limpie sus reservas y afine color, aroma y sabor. Los pistilos terminan de oscurecer, los morados se definen y la resina queda m谩s cristalina. El ambiente sigue ventilado para prepararla para el corte. 馃尶 Lavado final: pureza, aroma real y flores listas. 隆Seguimos creciendo fuerte 馃挭!

Hey people! I hope everyone is doing well! 馃憢 Here's the 15th week of my babies or the 4th of flower. All of them have been developing some really nice buds and trichomes keep appearing or getting bitter (or that's what it seems from all the photos I've taken!) 馃槂 This week I started giving my babies more potassium and phosphorus! I hope those products will help to get even bigger buds! At first tho I was a little worried because I thought I could end overfeeding and then nutrient locking my babies (the ppm of the water after I used all my nutrients was at 1400 and the vendor says I should be safe as long as I'm bellow 2200 ppm, which I was) from all the NP I would be giving them (which would've been awful) but everything went well! Leaves look healthy (a little more yellow, but I suppose that's normal!) 馃槏 My only problem this week has been Falco's chlorosis... it has also gotten worse (you'll see in the photos) 馃槩 and I decided to cut some of them to see if that helps (I assume those leaves are making her waste energies). Hopefully she'll be fine! I also made a small mistake in the week. For a second I thought one of my plants turned herm because she had developed a "sack". I later found out I was wrong and it was only a swollen calyx which made me relax a lot haha (I'm still such a noob 馃槺馃槀)... and that's all what happened this week. It was quite calm I believe! Right now I'm debating if I should remove all the small flowers/leaves at the bottom of the plant or just let them be (I don't want to over stress my babies x_x). I don't want them wasting energies in flowers that won't be as good as the others! Maybe I'll make a grow question out of this. Thanks all for reading! I hope you all like the photos I took with my DSLR and the timelapses! 馃槉

Fo' Twenny Back with another update on our Grandaddy Purple from Blimburn Seeds! She is looking really good this week. She still have a few of the feformed leaves that look wrinkled. From some googling, I would guess either Tobacco Mosaic Virus or just a natural deformity. She a cutting from a previous run and she has it then too. It isn't wide spread and she still put out quality medicine. Even though she wasn't very Grandaddy Purplish, she was still gassy and frosty! Other than the funky leaves, she looks super healthy with her leaves "praying" to the canna-gods! Now, let me nerd out with the deets! LIGHTING: Increased lighting at dimmer last week with good results. Was about 70k LUX on average @ Canopy. Turning it up a bit more this week. 8 Outer Boards @ 665.5w 6 Inner Boards @ 601w LUX APP MAXES OUT READING 78750 LUX @ Canopy. Lets hope its not too much! RHIZOSPHERE: If you didn't tune into the last update, I had just flushed pots due to high PPM runoff. pH of runoff was at 6.3. PPM and pH are tested using 2 separate calibrated BlueLab meters. All Water/Fertilizer is shared by 3.25 plants (.25 because autoflower gets less than a quarter the volume of the larger plants) 2 GAL PLAIN H20 w/fungicide prior to feed PH to 6.0 1 tsp/gal of Southern AG Garden Friendly Fungicide - Bacillus bacteria known as Bacillus Amyloliquefaciens (OMRI Organic Bacterial Innocclant/compare to Hydroguard Waited 15 minutes after plain H2O and fungicide 5 gallon tap H20 through 2 KDF filters START PH: 7.5 (taken from reservoir that contains impurities/residue from previous feeds) START PPM: 500 (also taken from reservoir) TEMP: 76掳F .125 tsp Ascorbic Acid added to help reduce chlorine/chloramine WEEK 4 FEED SCHEDULE: .5tsp/gal Sledgehammer (Surfactant) .125 tsp/gal Gringo Rasta Cal-Mag 1 tsp/gal BIG Bloom .5 tsp/gal Grow Big .5 tsp/gal Tiger Bloom .25 tsp/gal Kelp Me Kelp You .75 tsp/gal BEMBE .25 tsp/gal Beastie Blooms (Increased due to low ppm of solution) PPM: 1150 Added to Increase PPM 5 tsp/gal Tiger Bloom PPM: 1350 PH: 5.8 1tsp/gal RECHARGE .6ml/gal MAMMOTH P PH: 5.9 PPM: 1490 Thanks for checking out my diary.

Welcome to my Slurircane Diary sponsored by MSNL & SPIDER-FARMER Sponsored with their SE5000. Veg Days 26-32 Days 36-45 Plant is pushing along well. Good solid growth. Done lots of the last toppings this week. No need to defoliation or LST at this point. Her shape really is perfect. And, I know by know when a plant needs LST. Maybe I'll bend the nodes out lightly after I uppot this wk to an 11L Lights. SE5000 was used and supplied by Spider-Farmer for most of this grow. (Thank you Bella) and for early veg. The SF-1000 was used. So, all SF baby. Great lights. Forgot how much faster this spectrum pushes the plants along. Co2 850-1300ppm. Growth is good. Healthy. Need to be on the ball with this co2 growing. Shit happens so fast. A very light mag def one hr and 4hrs later its full on. Crazy fast for the autos. Haven't been keeping up required co2 levels. And sadly. I pushed this thing into pre flower (how Idk) but, the DLI was been reached. And she was shutting herself down. This is her last through week of veg. I've tried revegging her the the last 2 weeks. But, nothing is happening. She's good. Really nice long nodes. And she'll be a great plant. (I'm 2 weeks ahead, weeks will be updated more frequently)

An Tag 43 wurde mal wieder entlaubt. Sie werden dieses mal wieder riesig, das ist mal klar. Sie riechen auch schon ein wenig, ich freu mich auf jeden Fall. 馃懡馃憤 Tag 45: Ich hab sie dieses Mal wieder ins Netz gesteckt, da die Jungle Lava daf眉r einfach sehr gut gewachsen ist. Es sieht ja immer ein wenig krass aus, wenn man fertig ist 馃槄 Tag 48: Sie haben die Entlaubung gut verkraftet und strechen weiter.
