She is much prettier than she was a week ago :) I remembered that I have my first grow light, which is more compact and it will give me more space, so I changed my light, now the girl's side branches get light too:) I add a lot of video memes, because I really want to win Iphone16 pro ;) and those who don't take risks don't drink champagne:) good luck to everyone.

Hello growers and welcome to week 6. I expect Queen Citronella to gain a lot of height this week. I will be doing the measurements shortly, but first I wanted to share some news! Queen Citronella has a new home, she hasn't moved in yet, but I'm working on it today. I will also be rearranging all the other grows and starting some new things off! I am not sure if I have mentioned it anywhere but I am using a 1.2m x 1.2.m x 1.8m tent.. I have just got a 60cm x 60cm x 140cm tent and a 300w LED. Her Majesty I hope will enjoy her new quarters. Day 36: I have lowered the light to 30cm above the tallest plants. Day 37: It is done! Queen Citronella resides in her own palace, while the rest of the plebs squat together in the communal living area. I have reorganised and moved my 4x4, mounting the carbon filter and duct fan properly in the center. Setup a 2 x 2 with a 300w LED and put the lights for both tents on the same timer (for now). I will measure and photograph Her Majesty a little later, including photos of her new home. Day 37: Added media. Height: 31cm. Fertigated 2l. Day 37.5: Alright she is really stretching fast, she grew almost 5cm in a little over 30 hours, A thought has just occurred to me; I could, if I chose to, put the Queen on a flower cycle at this point. Now I did want to do a full grow of clones, however we're talking something like another 2 weeks of veg then 2 weeks for cuttings to root, then I'd want to veg them for a few more weeks, maybe 2, 3 or 4? So that's 6-10 weeks before I start flowering. Then at least ten weeks of flowering, A week to dry, and at least a fortnight to cure. We're talking 20-25 weeks before I get to smoke it, that's six months! I probably wont be able to grow in the summer due to the heat. Now I already have the one cutting which I am hoping will root soon, which I can take forward, but I also have two more seeds. So, regretfully, I think I will change my plans. I will flower queen Citronella, starting on day 43. I still intend to do a full tent of Super Lemon Haze clones, but I think I will postpone that adventure until September. So this is now the final week or final five days of veg, she will spend the bulk of her last week of veg under a different light. We wont get much data on vegging (unless there is a significant change this week) but it'll be a nice trial run flowering with an LED light for the first time. Exciting! I am still waiting for the Epislon F1 seeds from RQS. I set their pot up today, inoculated, fed, and sowed some Dark Opal (Purple) Greek Basil and a liberal sprinkling of chamomile. I am going to germinate all five seeds in jiffy pellets and then put them all in the same 40l Day 38: I have realised Her Majesty was too tall to flower in this little tent so I snapped her neck a bit. I installed a photometer app yesterday and discovered I was blasting Citronella with 75 DLI so I raised to light up until canopy level was 40 DLI. The LED is pretty good. The HPS Dual Spectrum bulb in the main tent must be on its last legs as output was around 40 DLI for optimally positioned plants and 30 least optionally positioned. I could do to buy a new bulb. Identical replacement is about fifteen bucks, best one is about fifty. For that I could get another one of those LEDs which seems like better value. At the moment though I really need the heat. So I am thinking identical replacement. 4 days to flower cycle! Day 38.5: Replaced crappy old Dutch barn reflector with a much nicer angel wing model. Installed a significantly larger carbon filter into the main tent which has significantly increased air flow. The main tent vents into the bottom of Queen Citronella's tent, and from there and unfiltered duct fan in the far top corner exhausts it out. The exhaust pipe goes up the chimney. Why have I reorganised and moved the tents again so soon is because I was wasting power heating the little tent with the LED light, but the main tent has excess heat. Well this setup is working a treat. Citronella is sitting in a balmy 23-24 degree wind tunnel. Check out the little video of the changes. Day 39: I think her majesty likes her new quarters. It's going to be weird seeing her square in a few more days. We are 2 days into a "dry spell" I'm simulating for all my plants. Day 40: Dry spell ended. Fertigated 6l. Day 41: Fertigated 3l. Citronella's penultimate day of veg, she is going 12/12 from lights out after next. Photos taken 10:00 9/2/23. Current lights out is Citronella's last 6 hour night! Day 42: Start: Have performed pre-flower LST, HST, and defoliation. 24 hours to flower cycle. Day 42: End: photographed immediately before first 12h night. End of week summary: Huge week for Citronella. I think this LED light is pretty good. Change of plans regarding the grow and preparing her for flower. Let's see how she does.

I stopped giving them nutrients at all since it's almost harvest time :) I guess about two weeks or so to go. I watch her trychomes all the time :) Some of them seem to get brownish :) They look and smell amazing!

Permanent marker the 1st thing that comes to mind when I think about these seedlings is the stem out of all 12 seedlings I have going in the tent the 2 Permanent Marker seedlings stems are think when the fan blows on them they don't sway at all. 1 of the 2 seedling has some interesting wide leaves Last grow I overwatered and had to toss them because growth got stunted and a bunch if fungus knats got to the soil. This time I'm trying promix potting soil wish I had tried promix hp but the store close by isn't a hudro store and that's what they had. So this time I'm being very cautious with the watering I'm only useing a spray bottle I'm currently giving 45 spray per solo cup every few days when it dries out. This promix soil seems to hold water decent so the 45 spray there is 0 water coming out the bottom the cup yet. Here soon I think I'm going to double the amount of spray to 90 and start letting the soil get dry dry before watering again. Probably will hold off on any nutes quite yet. I'm going from 24/0 to 20/4 light schedule this week. There getting to the point they won't strech as much is 4 hrs of darkness and I'm rasing the light intensity a little it's been around 150 I'm upping it to around 175. Most likely by the end of the week I'll probably be pushing 200 or close. Hopefully I can get them into the big tent soon At this stage I like to alternate having the fan blowing on them I feel it gives them time to recover and get stronger instead of wind stress. Also every few days I will turn the plants so they are facing away from the light making them grow back towards the light I fell it makes them stronger

My Rainbow Melon plant is still one of the biggest in the tent, and it's definitely the smelliest so far. The only thing I'm not crazy about is how big the leaves are getting. It's been a challenging week with the constant rain and ridiculously high humidity. Keeping things dry indoors has been a real struggle. Despite the weather, I managed to flip all my feminized photoperiod plants to flower this week. I'm hoping the switch will go smoothly, but with this humidity, it's going to be tough.

I wanted to title this weeks grow "How Big Are Your Balls? (root balls that is, lol)". I've been wanting to post pictures and video of the root balls for a while now, so today's the day! The temperature has been dropping here, so the plants are getting much less heat stress. In a couple of weeks the temperature should be down into the 60's and 70's during the day and all will be good.

Things are starting to slow down vertically as she starts to flower more profusely, but she still grew about 5" last week. I did a little minor league low stress training by just pulling some of the branches down that were growing vertically near the main stem. Very pliable. Will probably do some interior lower pruning in the next few days. We're coming out of a pretty hot spell with a few days in a row in the 90s. September 1 > performed a substantial amount of pruning in the interior and base of the plant. The plant had a lot of vertical runners clogging up the interior.

They have shown sex and seem to have grown multiple pistils from calyxes so I'm hoping there going to continue to flower. 🙏 Shot up in the last week and two smaller ones have now become two tallest. Trying to convert a branch on the tallest fastest growing middle plant using a home made STS solution!

Another week down. As some of you will see, from the three purple kush autos one defiantly has the characteristics of a “purple kush plant” it is very small with odd shaped buds and almost purpley/black. The other two are monsters with no purple traits. I did loose a plant at the start that was also stunted, which likely would have produced another “purple budded” plant. Anyway it has been hotter than hell here, and they pretty much survived a hurricane and tornado, so I think these girls will finish out the summer just nice. I gave them a feed of some cal mag and some fox farms tiger bloom. Other than that they be chillin. Enjoy the weather! Cheers.

Hello fellow growers, I am pleased to start this new journey with you. I am also particularly excited since I am going to grow a Mephisto Genetics strain for the very first time, the famous Double Grape. I know you shouldn't believe the hype, as Public Enemy used to say, but it's hard to ignore the dithyrambic reviews when it comes to Mephisto. I sowed the seed directly in the substrate and it was popping out 3 days later. Right now the seedling is under my Mars Hydro TS1000, brightness set at 25%, lights are 80cm away. During my last grows I set it up to the max at all stages of growth, this time I decided to proceed differently and increase gradually. Please let me know in the comments if you think I should just push it to the max right away. I would like to thank HESI nutrients team for sending me a great Starter Pack! Shout out to Hesi_Official, can't wait to test your products! Thanks for reading and stay tuned for weekly updates! 😎

So I decided to drop a berry cookie into DWC for ol time sake. Trying to squeeze one more grow in before the summer. Anyways she's been in her basket for a week now and she seems to be digging it so far. No roots showing yet but she's young yet. New growth coming in for sure so the roots are definitely growing just a long the basket and the clay pebbles. Probably getting adequate water for now but I'm sure by next week we'll be seeing some nice beautiful white roots!

Smells on this bud are amazing! Very piney with hints of berries 😋 Not the biggest harvest, but that was expected seeing as this plant was grown in a 1 gal pot. None the less, I am happy with the results 😁

11/28 - My god is she shooting up! 5.5" in a week... and still the claw, claw, claw of her leaves. And she's SO close to being in flower... they'll probably be quite evident in a couple of days... I've been using the LST clips to help me tuck her fan leaves under the bud sites.. rather hilarious but it works! Soon, I'll be LSTing the bud sites themselves once their branches get a little longer... Next grow, I'm going to try a different method of LST - but for now I'll go with the way I've always done it. Oh Pinky... I wish you'd tell me why your leaves are clawing! 11/29 - Oops... I had typed in the wrong date for the comment above! It wasn't 11/18 - it was 11/28 - yesterday! Anyway, I fixed it. And Pinky is going great guns... she's now starting to go through water quite a bit and continuing her stretch... I may have to transfer her to the closet (headroom 7') after Bruce #2 is finished in there! But that's not going to be for quite a while yet so I think I might have to get a little more serious about her LST... I can't remember what the harvest time is estimated at by Seedsman.... of course, I'd have to add a couple of weeks to their rose-colored-glasses estimates - but I'd better check it out. Yikes! 11/30 - She's doing really well... I had hoped to do some LST on her yesterday and then my day rather exploded on me - so I'll get to that today for sure. The Day 30 pic I've put up here is interesting... when I got up this morning and took a look at her, I was convinced she was now in flower... but I just don't know... and I guess it makes little difference - I just prefer to think of her as being in flower now and so I declare she is! LOL! Princess Pinky! What a lovely gal! (But I STILL want to know why your leaves are curling, you crazy lady!) 12/2 - good god! GOOD GOD!!!! This lady has grown 6.5" since I last measured her on 11/28... FOUR DAYS!! Ya think she's unhappy?! I don't!! Starting to really love this lady who is now definitely in flower... She's so spacey, I doubt I'll have to do any defoliation at all on her.... I'm now DEFINITELY planning to transfer her to the grow closet when my #2 Bruce is done - and hope she can hold on in the tent until that happens... I was NOT expecting her to get so tall! 12/04 - Oh. My. God. She won't slow her growth!! She's adding about 1.5" to her height every day... Oh my aching back!! I should have done a different kind of LST on this one early in the game - bent her over completely - but what did I know?! Can't see the future at all... even with my tri-focals! LOL! If you grow this strain from Seedsman, kick the LST into high gear in the first couple of weeks... Now I'm having to try to figure out how I'm going to handle her! LMAO!!!! Going to be raising her EC today ... up another 0.2 and adding some KoolBloom to her mix... Still am not anticipating the need for defoliation...
