Feb 19th,
- week 9 of flower sees a lot of subtle changes going on. The smell at the door is one, and it’s becoming a very dense and dark odour. Fruit-like up close.
- Molasses doubled as root boosters get removed and Calimg has only 1 feed left, tonight.
- Mar 1 is the tentative flush, first day of week 11 in flower.
Those will be a long couple of weeks, feeding h20 & sugar only
- noticing the stems of Fan leaves are turning Red/Crimson on L plant. A few are in the R as well.
** question asked about Red Stems **
23rd
- noticing a definite increase in the Trichomes of the Buds, under the UVB (pics tonight).
There are simply more now and it’s kinda obvious when side by side. Lite spill from uvb is falling on the left plant as well, but not from 14”
- feed tonite will include a bit of CaliMag once again moving forward and a lingering taste of Medi-One.
- Trichomes were checked today. As happy as I was to see a few Amber ones. They were very wide-spread with most of the others still 50/50 clear and cloudy.
- Based on todays Trichome check; hoping to flush ~ Mar 7 now. That will be the end of 11 complete weeks of Flower. FYI: Breeders expectation "11-12” weeks. Happy to see it linger a bit, diet, humidity and lighting changes have been incremental throughout. How quickly the next changes happen ie: clear to cloudy etc., I have no idea.
Would love to see ~ 10% Amber, just enough to say it’s Very ripe. ( Not in any way thinking of couch-lock lol )
- literature & product labels on Humic Acid recommend usage throughout Veg & Flower... just Not the last 3 weeks. That rules this batch out... So the next batch(s) get introduced.
- Macro shots tonight of the Buds under the UVB... cannot wait.
** found 1 bud on the R plant, that had quite a bit of Amber showing. Nowhere to be seen in the L plant, but it looks like a high concentration of Cloudy Trichomes on the L regardless.
One more serious search tonight of the R plant and it may just be time for a rinse.
Surprised to see so many Ambers, alone on this one bud.
Pics uploaded ! re: 24th a.m.
Feb24th,
- when the lights came on this evening, I did another thorough check on both plants and there were more Amber trichomes found. Ready or not, both plants were Thoroughly flushed.
- Flush aid used in the process.
- 10 Litres of Water was mixed with Molasses / Rezin as the first liquids poured into the plants, after the Flush...
- when it came right down to it, the sudden appearance and then rapid spreading of the Amber Trichomes made it an easy call, to flush both plants.
Thoughts on the amount of white hairs left... they have a couple weeks to get their shit together... if I can get a couple weeks of flushing-in, that’s a definite bonus.
25th
- humidity spike in the Tent. doors are cracked and a floor fan has been added for extra air flow. Exhaust fan increased...
26th, no liquid to remove from the plants btm Trays, but still showing a high humidity. R.H. coming down slowly, aimed the fans at the fabric pots... doors cracked etc.
* why mess around, hooked up the dehumidifier... R.H. dropping, end of issue

Whats up everybody cheers to another week of growth for everyone!
This week the ladies buds started showing signs of progress. You can see them produce more and more resin every day thanks to the cold weather its really easy to keep a pretty dry environment. Can’t wait to do my final defo next week! Until then stay green!

Seeds planted directly in substrate. Took about five days for them to germinate. Temperatures on these days were around 11~20ºC with a RH above 60%. Automatic seeds were planted on 19L fabric pot and feminized ones on 3,5 L plastic pots (planning to transpant them after to 19L fabric pots), and one directly in a 15l fabric pot.

7/14 4AM MONDAY MUST DEFOLIATE!!!!! I HAVE 4 INSTEAD OF 2...BECAUSE OF MY LITTLE ACCIDENT EARLY ON.. I WILL TAKE ONE OUT OF FLOWER AND RE-VEG TODAY!!!
7/15 420am They are great cutting I took last month or week is great. Amino and mb today!! 230pm spectacular results today heavy defoliation I removed branches. I prefer a four cola grow in small spaces. It’s just better for airflow better for the plants and they responded so great. It’s like they’re jumping straight up now. I’ve never seen this. They’re just so vibrant that means all the amino’s. Everything is working perfectly. 👍👍👍🚨🚨🚨🌿🌿🌿
7/16 320am 🌿🌿🌿🌿🎊🎊🎊🎊💥💥💥💥👍👍👍👍
7/18 3am NOTICING Elongated Sepals!!!! from Search Ai "Elongated sepals in plants refer to sepals that are longer than average, often appearing narrow and pointed. This characteristic can be a defining feature of certain plant species, such as the long-sepal beardtongue (Penstemon calycosus). The length and shape of sepals can vary significantly between species and even within the same plant, influencing the overall appearance and potentially the function of the flower.
Elongated Sepals: More Details
Definition: Sepals are leaf-like structures that form the outermost whorl of a flower, typically green and protecting the bud. Elongated sepals are simply those that are noticeably longer than the typical sepal length for a given plant or group of plants.
Examples:
Long-sepal beardtongue (Penstemon calycosus): This plant is named for its elongated sepals, which are a key characteristic.
Berberis (Barberry): Some Berberis species exhibit elongated sepals, with variations in shape and length among different sepal types within the same flower.
Significance:
Identification: Sepal shape and length are important features used in plant identification and classification.
Pollination: In some cases, elongated sepals might play a role in attracting pollinators or influencing how they interact with the flower.
Protection: Sepals, even elongated ones, still function to protect the developing flower bud.
Morphogenesis: Studies on Arabidopsis have shown that the shape of sepals, including the presence of elongated tips, can be influenced by mechanical feedback within the plant and the arrangement of microtubules."""🚨.
THIS IS ON 2 OF THEM, SO I MAY HAVE 2 STRONGER THAN AVG. PLANTS. I WONDER IF THE MB, AMINOS ARE HELPING WITH THIS TOO???
7/19 I GOT A MAGNETIC STIR THING. 150pm they didn’t need a lot of attention today. They do need to be trimmed back down to four colas. I’m running out of space they are very perfect and if I had more space the leafs would be bigger, but that’s limited by mine condition so there’s nothing I can do but they are absolutely incredible🎊👍👍

The time has come to pass for this super cool Red poison auto from Sweet seeds.
The one bud beauty has been fun from the start.
It took as much time trying to figure out what 16oz was in English and then actually find a 473ml cup, as it took this girl to germinate.
I've mentioned before it was a picture entry from this this comp previous that drew me to grow diaries in the first place. (Yes I'm a bud slut, don't judge)
Back to miss Red P, she has taken the usual beating of me forgetting to water and feed a few days, a neglect that all my plants enjoy at some stage of their lives.
She started life in a converted shoe cupboard grow thing and ended her weeks in the main converted wardrobe where alongside the usual cheap LEDs she has had a few doses of the old UVB 10 reptile light. *Giving her a fantastic sugar looking crystal coating. My opinion through some research and personal experimentition*
Although nuits problems showed in her leaves in the second half of her growing life and some forgeful watering, they produced some stunning, ever changing colours, which were ironically a nice change to see from the regular grows of green and would probably have been more concerned if it was happening to one of the other girls.
The Purple to Red coloured main bud is bigger than the cup itself and weighs a ton. I had to put support in last week to hold her upright.
Her leaves look fake and plastic as my wife commented, true too which makes for a nice look I've never seen before.
perfect timing on the grow time although I could have harvested earlier to be fair but the bud just kept getting bigger and well, you know. ..
As of writing I've not posted the root pics but will soon.. . Honest... I just like looking at her for now.. . Every now and then a quick admiring close up look at them buds.....
I just don't want to part with her yet ok. give me time!

Mild defoliation throughout this week. Flush imminent so will leave the remaining fans as nute banks.
Next run with these genetics I'll be running a monstercropped clone under this scrog and will go heavier with the defoliation earlier on. I was advised this on here this grow and did a bit but have learned I need more!
Forever learning. Looks like it's gonna be an epic harvest. These girls smell absolutely dank.
Testament to the quality of these Madame Grow Fertilisers. Harvest just get better every time!
Also big shout out to my bro at NatureDelight.co.uk providing some awesome organics to add into the grow schedule. Used The Active Sugar Boost all through flower at 3ml per litre this run and I think the results speak for themselves. I cannot implore you guys enough to go check this stuff out. It's unique and you wont find better customer service.
Lots of vids and content this week as we all love bud shots <3

I've dropped to weekly updates on Bertha as a stunted plant she doesn't hold much interest for me, she is only alive because I am not desperate for the space.
Here she is on day 49 end of week 7. I will take multiple photos and a video once a week until she is chopped.

D1 Increase light to 90W / Lamp
Plants are ~ 45 cm, 0,75 l /day
D2 Ad a fan, reorganised box. LST for the main stems.
D3 Trimming the side stems from node one to three
D4 Plants look fine, last day with grow fertilizer. Humidity is ~50% without humidifier, plants have more transpiration caused by more light and more leafs. More transpiration means more transport and requirement of nutrients. Light is ~ 33000 lm.
D5 Today is day 35 from seeding, halftime 🙂
Training was successfull, plants are bushy. I noticed the maximum plant height in my tent is 70 cm. I stopped the stretch in height this week completly. Box is very small, 50*100*180 cm
First feed with bloom fertilizer EC1,8
At the afternoon some leaf tips on the top are yellow. First sign of to much nutrients ☹️
Flushed both Ladies with 2l of Aqua dest.
now i know i'm driving near the limit with nutrients at the moment.
D6 Both Ladies look very good. No feed today 😀
D7 Tips of new leafs are green

Looks like this will be her final week! She won't last long. Maybe 10.5 weeks of flowering in all. Smelling nice. And finally starting to get that beautiful lavender/chocolate color of her father (although, a little too late).

Lilly x White Widow is doing good. She has finished, and is ripening well. I am just a little past when I would like to cut her. I am waiting on space in Cannatrol. So I have to cycle them in to it in 8 day gaps. Her next update will be her Harvest. I did reduce the light strength on the Spider Farmer G5000/UVR40 lights to 60 percent. She is just riding out her time flushing to her cut date. Thank you Spider Farmer, Athena, and Ripper Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱
Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻

Eine faszinierende süße Sorte, richtig durchdrlingiche fruchtig süßes Aroma.
Ich bin so auf dass gesamt Resultat gespannt!
Die Zuckerblätter glitzern in einem starken weißen funkeln und es werden immer mehr trichome sichtbar.
Diese Woche kam der Komposttee mit ca. 1,5 littern pro pflanze zum Einsatz.

They seem to be accelerating in veg growth but I see a small portion of the leaf on the smaller plant either grew in mutated or somthing cut it, I haven’t seen a single bug in the box so I don’t think it’s that but you never know, and the bigger plant has some issues near the base of its stem, I noticed it before I did the LST and now I’m wondering if I should have addressed that issue before starting the LST. Let me know what you guys think!
Dec 2:
Walked into the room and noticed a faint smell, wasn’t any smell last night when I started the LST on the slower girl. Further inspection showed some white pistols on the bigger girl, I believe she is the culprit for the smell as the other seems about a week behind. They are both now LST‘d and leaf tucked. Enjoy the pics and vid’s!
Dec 6:
I have tied down some of the longer chutes on the bigger plant (will see in week 5 update) to create more airflow and light penetration as I didn’t even realize how bushy the stem and node sections had gotten. I have also cut the chutes coming off the first true leaf. I don’t think I will make any cuts to the smaller one as it’s already a slower growing pheno. Going on a trip starting the end of week secede to late week 8, so I have a automatic feeder coming from Amazon, and I will continue using it through flower to reduce open tent time.

Off to week 5 and my ladies are looking healthy again after one week of struggle.
Super excited for their progress this week.
Height growth is now really noticable and I increased watering to 750ml/plant.
Turned my SF SE3000 up to 80% and increased the distance to 60cm.
So far they are loving it and I'm right on track for a good grow!

This weeks been strong switched the nutrients on em! They’ve been getting use to them and starting to stretch!! Been defoliating when I can I’m nervous to do too much! But there’s good air flow in the tent! 🔥 it’s been hot out here in the desert so I might get another bag for co2 read that will help the plants deal with the heat!

Start of Week 10 and DAMN She Grows Tall. I don't have Room in My Taller Tent so I had to try LST'ing Her. She seems to be Responding Fine but Boy does this Girl get Tall. She was over 2ft n still Growing even after the Manifold. Node Spacing is pretty Tight though so Bud Sites all over. I've tried Counting Sites n always Lose Count around 50. Still no Budding though. If She Produces Dense Buds She should be a Good Yielder.
