Defoliación leve 👨‍🌾🏻🍀

Light defoliation and training branches at the bottom with stakes… I mistakenly pushed down too hard and you know the story after that But overall plant still moving forward.. Any advice on spots on leaf.. please reach out and let me know if you have any solutions

09 May 2021 Today starts the 15th week of my grow, and the 6th week of flower. Just over a month till the scheduled harvest, and today the nutrient amounts change according to my feeding chart. So today feeding went like this: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, FloraBloom 15ml. Today we aren’t using any of the FloraGro, and won’t be for the rest of the grow. I chilled the water again, but not as long this time and the temperature of the solution was 56.3 degrees F. I thought it odd that the website doesn’t allow for entries lower than 50 degrees in that block, but oh well. The initial pH was 5.89, and I added pH UP 2.5ml which adjusted the pH to 6.53. The runoff pH was 5.63. Lower than I want, but still within range for a healthy plant. Temperature in the tent was 81 degrees F, and humidity was at 53%. The plant looks great, and is maturing quite nicely. 11 May 2021 Today was a busy day! My DarkStar Kush is doing very well! The smell is starting to get stronger and the buds are fattening up as well. I’ve noticed some mild nutrient burn on some of my leaf tips, but nothing terrible. I’ll keep an eye on it to make sure that they don’t get worse. I haven’t really made any adjustments to the nutrients lately with the exception of increasing the FloraBloom by 2.5ml’s, and stopped using the FloraGro in accordance with my feed chart. Feeding today went as follows: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, and FloraBloom at 15ml. The initial pH was 5.85, so I added 3ml of pH UP to increase the pH to 6.52. The runoff pH was 5.65. I finally received my TDS meter today, so the TDS reading was 1070 ppm. My feed chart says that the ppm range in looking for is 1050-1400 ppm, so 1070 puts me in that range. I chilled the water again today, and it was 46 degrees F. The temperature in the grow tent was 81 degrees F, and humidity was 40%. So far so good, and I’m starting two new diaries today for some clones I was gifted by Buddabud, so check them out. 13 May 2021 Just when I thought I was on cruise control with my baby here, she throws me a slow curve. The question is; will I hit it, or miss it? The light nutrient burn that I noticed in my last entry on the 11th has gotten just a small tad worse, but nothing terrible. I believe it’s not from the feeding, but the build up of nutrients in the soil. I finally got my TDS monitor as I noted the other day, so I tested the ppm in the runoff and it was over 4000. Then, as I was shaking the excess water off the end, the end cap for the battery came off and the whole monitor plunged back into the water completely submerging for a moment before I could get a hand free to grab it. It’s been sitting in a bowl of rice since yesterday. I just hope it dries out and keeps working. I need to see what the TDS of the soil at this stage is supposed to be and then either keep going and damn the burn, or maybe feed with pH’ed plain water for a feeding or two and then see how it reacts. I’m still deciding, but will research first before making my decision. For today I kept to the feed chart. I gave the following: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 7.5ml, and FloraBloom 15ml. The initial pH was 5.92, so I added 2.5ml of pH UP which raised the pH to 6.47. That is what I fed the plant. The TDS reading of the feed solution was 1036 ppm. Runoff pH was 5.63. Tent temperature was 79 degrees F, and humidity was 40%. I have just about 4 weeks left in this grow till the scheduled harvest. 15 May 2021 Today is the last day of the 6th week of flower, and I’m going to try and arrest my mild nutrient burn on my baby. I’ve decided to just give water and CALiMAGic today properly pH’ed to see if it does anything to improve the situation. I wanted to have a significant amount of runoff today so I fed 1.5 gallons of water with 7.5ml of CALiMAGic. The initial pH was 7.60, but adding the pH DOWN is much different than adding pH UP! I initially added just 0.5ml to the gallon of water which lowered the pH from 7.60 to 4.9. I was like, “DAMN!” 😳 so I had to pour it all out and start over again. I learned through research never to mix pH UP and DOWN in the same solution. If it’s wrong, you need to start over;!so I did. After 3 tries and lots of wasted CALiMAGic, I finally got it right by only adding 5 drops (gtts) of pH DOWN to get it to 6.64. The TDS meter dried out and still works, so the TDS going in was only 403ppm. Like I said, I wanted a lot of runoff to try and clear out some of the nutrient buildup in the soil. The runoff pH was 5.58, and runoff TDS was 3803 ppm. Daytime temp was high today at 86 degrees F, and humidity was 31%. She looks good. She smells good. I hope she stays good! A few weeks left till harvest!

The buds are starting to look delicious

It's hot as hell right now, so she's back to drinking every 24 hours. Just fed her with FOOP for the last time (Friday). Will only give her water for the rest of her grow time. She's looking almost fully cooked. Will likely check her trichs on Sunday and start to consider a timeline for chopping. No pest issues at all. Smell is absolutely divine.

This is the whole flowering cyclus posted in one week.

Straightforward with nothing to report out of the ordinary. I top watered on day 56 then let them dry back prior to harvest (day 61). Nice mix of milky and amber trichomes. Harvested early morning prior to lights on.

Well its a late update from down under.. and its been shit. No other words for it. After all that un seasonal tropical rain a month back my Caramelo was hating life with water logged roots and was wilting badly for more days than id like, she recovered just fine... or so I thought. Thats when I noticed the Spider mites and a small patch of mould rot on a pre flower bud, so I grabbed my trusty Lime Sulfur bottle and made up what I THOUGHT was my usual 1/2 strength mix to use.....But turns out due to a new smaller bottle and me using the wrong mix to start with (I normally use 1/2 the 30ml per lt mix for seedlings even on fully mature plants to avoid burning em, But I used the 50mls per ltr ratio at what I thought was 1/2 strength) AND my old bottle turns out to be 1.25ltrs and my new one was 750mls!! So long story finalized is I used 1.25 X the normal strength mix and burnt the shit out of ALL new shoots and pre flowers. Thus why im only posting a vid of the cat with the ZkittleZ who is loving life harder than any plant Ive had before -So will be focusing a bit more on her for a while now.

This flowering week gave me some experience about watering because i used only hand watering method so i made a mistake when i watered in this week . some nutrient dropped upon some leaves of my banana daddy one (the second biggest of my babies). But i also experienced this on vegetative state so i can take care very well of my plants and they made a great start . Can't wait to see the flowers of my babies but i'm still trying to do another steps and to grow organic.

Las plantas ya se ven mejor, han crecido bastante bien, aunque la Runtz#1 parece ir peor

Think these girls are about ready gonna check trichomes and see where we’re at but not far I reckon.

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Week 1: The Verdant Odyssey Begins Greetings, fellow cultivators and horticultural aficionados! Our Apolo F1 has successfully sprouted its green wings and embarked on the adventurous journey of vegetative growth. Strap in for a thrilling week 1 report that's as lush and comprehensive as the foliage we're nurturing. This week, our verdant hero underwent a transplant into a tiny pot filled with a soil and Aptus Holland Mycor Mix. Now, let's delve into the magical world of Mycor Mix. Picture this mix as the Avengers of the soil, with various species of endomycorrhizae joining forces. They're fixed on a vegetal carrier, not unlike a botanical superhero's ride, feeding and protecting these fungi, ensuring they're ready to go to work for our Apolo F1. Now, let's talk watering – a crucial aspect of our plant's well-being. Here, I turn to my trusty sponsors, Aptus Holland, for their nutrient line. The star of the show this week is Regulator, a concoction containing Mono-silicic acid (Si), Boron (B), and Molybdenum (Mo). Si acts as a nutrient transporter, while B enhances calcium uptake and fiber production. Meanwhile, Mo plays the role of a botanical Uber, moving nitrogen from lower to upper leaves with finesse. But that's not all – our plant's diet includes CaMg-Boost, a luxurious 0.5ml/l concoction. This organo-mineral plant booster is the VIP treatment for preventing calcium and magnesium deficiencies, ensuring our Apolo F1 develops powerful fruit set and reaches the pinnacle of quality. The nutrient symphony continues with All-in-One Liquid, a 100% mineral-based fertilizer that's the maestro of all mediums and systems. Its unique manufacturing process renders it pH-variation insensitive, a testament to its resilience in a wide pH-range throughout the vegetative phase to flowering/maturation. And let's not forget the organic touch with Startbooster at 0.25ml/l – the secret sauce for stimulating root system development and vegetative growth. It's like giving our Apolo F1 a botanical energy drink, ensuring it's in top form for the journey ahead. Our green prodigy is currently basking under the protective dome, a symbol of pride in this early stage of growth. It's like watching a seedling transform into a robust plant, and I couldn't be prouder. Before we wrap up this week's report, I must extend a heartfelt shoutout to @James and Royal Queen Seeds for blessing me with the Apolo F1, to Aptus Holland for being the guardians of my plant's nutrition, and to Grow Diaries for providing the digital amphitheater where our horticultural exploits can unfold. Stay tuned for more chapters in our Apolo F1 Mission Diary – where we'll witness the magic of botanical alchemy and the evolution of our green companion. Happy growing, fellow cultivators!

West coast og is turning into a beast. Buds are filling out nicely . Some of the pistils are starting to change colour. I will start her on straight water soon . The mites are still hanging around so the leaves aren’t looking too healthy . I should still get a decent harvest by the looks of it

Auto Black Opium is doing good. She has started flowering and is starting to stretch. Everything is going well. Thank you Spider Farmer, Divine Seeds, and Athena nutrition. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

Mittlerweile benötige ich 1,5 Stunden um der Green Gelato ihre 4 L geben. Und das alle 3 Tage 😴. Das ist aber auch das Einzige was momentan Zeit kostet. Ansonsten ist sie sehr pflegeleicht.

Its been pretty smooth this week, only mistake was that the light was to close so I got lightburn and bleaching on 2 tops, lesson learned. The SF4000 is still put at 85% and im still slowly cutting down the nitrogen, im currently feeding 2:1:1 ratio of (4-18-38/magnesium sulphate/calcium nitrate)

Apr 20: They hanging out at 65% rh and 65F.. Going for 7-10 day dry… No wet trim, cut plants in half and hung… Very happy with density and resin production… Can’t wait to jar and test in 2-3 weeks… I feel comfortable with this strain, I think it’s time to move on… Really wanna run some Mephisto seeds….

Did some lollipoping this week, but not much. Buds start to get bigger, all looking and smelling good, stretch is over. DLI was increased to 36.
