Buds formed this week, on around 10 main stems, each with main bud and half a dozen secondary buds. Once per week: Ionic Liquid Silicon 13ml; Ionic PK Boost 13ml; PH Down, ~20 drops. This is in addition to what she receives daily: Ionic Liquid Oxygen 10ml; Ionic Hydro Bloom 10ml; occasional few drops of Ionic PH Down. EC=2000 uS/cm, PH=5.5 (will rise to 6.3 through week). This is close to the EC level that caused nutrient lockout/burn earlier, during veg; fingers crossed we don't see a repeat. Raised light twice this week, but still a bit of leaf bleaching; plant grew a further 25cm.

Not a great to start to the week wirh this cal or cal/meg deficiency (as you can see in the pics) but ill hold my hands up, i only topped dressed last week and as this is an organic soil, i should have actually topped dressed on wk 4, 2 week previous !!! We live and learn from 😀 I have added small quantity of tomato feed to two waterings this week, just to give her that wee boast while the organic top dress has time to break down in the soil However, it doesnt seem to have caused much stress to this lady, maybe because she was finished her final stretch ?? Not sure. It also doesnt seem to have affected bud growth or trichome production, so fingers crossed. If anyone out there has any tips for me, please feel free to share. As I've been growing plants many years, but i am relatively new to cannabis growing and always willing to learn. ✌️✌️

Embarking on another exciting journey with Hella Jelly – JELLY RANCHER strain by Humboldt Seed Company, we have imporved our cultivation conditions to optimize results for these keeper phenotypes. In this run, we are growing Pheno #5, #8, #7, and #1. Currently, we are five weeks into the vegetative stage, and our plants are thriving.Previously, they were somewhat root-bound due to their prior location, but we have transplanted them into 10L pots. All our plants have undergone meticulous topping and training, and we are now leaving them to flourish. We have a scrog the net which is being installed in the next few days, and we will feed the new growth through the scrog untill the screen is filled. Speaking of lighting, our setup currently features a 450W full-spectrum quantum board, operating at maximum capacity and strategically positioned to maintain favorable temperatures. Notably, we've introduced UV bulbs into the equation (2 x 26W UVB bulbs). Initially, we'll expose the plants to 30 minutes of UV light twice daily, gradually extending the duration to 4-6 hours daily as we enter the flowering phase. For the flowering stage, we'll make the switch from the 450W Quantomn board to the Spyder 2p 650W. In preparation for the plants daily fertigation needs, we've installed a drip-feed system, which will come into play as soon as the plants begin to show signs of drying up daily. Our target date for inaiting the flowering stage is set for the 1st of October. We are genuinely optimistic about the outcome of this run, so please stay tuned for regular updates!

**** Week 13 growth - February 27 to March 5, 2021 - Week 4 Flower ***** These girls are looking a little more different as we get further in flower. Pheno 1 is starting to swell more this week and here leaves are a nice rich green colour. Pheno 2 on the other hand has lighter leaf colour but is reacting less favourable to the amount of nitrogen and clawing down at the end of the week. It could be that she is also reacting worse to the increased light intensity this week. The frost production on Pheno 1 is also coming out more now. These two girls seems a little more reactionary to nutrient levels. Light intensity increased this week. Pushed up to 525 watts and then to 550 watts at the end of the week. This got the a little hot by the end of the week though. Working with a new light and finding the sweet spots takes a run or two. Learning how the girls grow anyway so the whole run is a lot of learning......its all good😀 Nutrients were pushed a little at the end of last week and the start of this week so backing off a bit more again. Given that they were pushed with light intensity they started showing some signs of nutrient issues. It’s good though as there is reaction time and back off to plain water feed for a couple of days at the end of the week and into week 5. Week 5 is going to be the start of the last stage of flower feed and work with that for two weeks, then stop feeding at the end of week 6........the plan so far anyway. Little more detail....... Feb 27/21 - Day 22 - big feed day - all IPP line plus silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, enzymes @ 1.5ml - 1650ppm and 6.1pH - 4L Feb 28/21 - Day23 - Microbe day but also added some CalMag - Natures Candy @ 1.5ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal, Magnifical @ 1.5ml, Micro @ 1ml, Bloom 1.5ml, Terpinator @ 2ml - 950 ppm and 6.0pH - 3L - leaf colour almost looks light today. Mar 1/21 - Day 24 - dry out day. Mar 2/21 - Day 25 - plain water - 300ppm and 6.1 ph - 4L - light power pushed up to 550 watts today. - (too much from 16” to 20”........note!!) Mar 3/21 - Day 26 - plain water with two suppliiments - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 2ml. - 525ppm & 6.0pH - 4L - stripped some leaves today......sticky in the middle😃😃👍👍 Mar 4/21 - Day 27 - no water added today - light power reduced today 450 watts. - been going too hard with intensity. Seeing leaf curl on other girls in the tent. - joys of diagnosing cannabis😂 - starting with backing off light and reduce ppm going in but not the ml👍 Mar 5/21 - Day 28 - hit with microbes again to help with stresses. - recharge @ 1 tsp/gal, Nature’s Candy @ 1.5ml - 375ppm and 6.0pH - 3L Moving right along we are through 4 weeks now and moving past the middle of flower.

4/13/25 - Start of week 5 of flower, Purple Ghost Candy has caught up to Fuel D.OG in height, bud development PGC is still behind while FDOG is progressing well and starting to swell. Today they will get top dressed with Gaia Green Power Bloom 2-8-4 at 3 TBSP per gallon of soil, I will be adding 27 TBSP or ~400ml. I will also be adding some worm casting at 1/2 cup per gallon of soil, so i will do 4.5 cups or 2.25 solo cups (Solo Cups is obviously the best unit of measurment) 4/14/25 - Gave a light top watering with FPE. Thinking about getting aloe Vera powder and adding it into my top watering. Add 1/8th a tbsp per gallon for top 4/16/25 - Filled the res with plain water PH'd to 6.1 4/17/25 - Gave a light top watering with FPE again today 4/19/25 - filled the res with plain water PH'd to 6.5

Day 35 flower — grow diary drop 🌿🔥 Girls are looking sick right now. Canopy’s totally sealed and the colas are stacking hard — smell in the box is absolutely cracking when I open the doors. Cooler nights are doing some magic on the colours; Kush Crasher is going deep purple on the underside and some leaves are going almost black — proper kush vibes. Quick lineup reminder (so readers know who’s who): Back left: Wedding Cake (Portland) — frosty, resin on point. Back center: Kush Crasher — purple toning, heavy trichome coverage. Back right: AK-47 — denser, more classic compact buds forming. Front left: Double Krush — airy but stacking nicely, very resinous tops. Front centre: WAPPA — main star atm, big central cola fattening up steady. Front right: Detroit Runtz — sticky, fruity pheno showing good bulk. Wappa is producing a fat main cola with loads of side nodes filling in — this one’s gonna be a heavy, chunky top. Wedding Cake and Double Krush are thickening up and getting frosty fast. AK-47 keeps its compact commercial shape (good for scrog). Detroit Runtz has that crystal-sparkle and is smelling fruity even at 35 days. Kush Crasher’s colour is the eye-candy — those dark tones + the trichome frosting = lovely contrast across the canopy. Notes from the tent: Stretch is done, canopy even and nearly locked in. I spotted some slight N-pull on older leaves (pale lower leaves) — nothing drama, going to tweak feed a touch. Big aroma — open the door and the terp cloud hits. 😍 Humidity still my main worry (garage runs cold + RH spikes at night) — keep an eye on bud-zone airflow and dehumid duty. What I’ll do next few days: one final tidy/clean under the canopy tomorrow, support any heavy tops, lean feeding into bloom (keep top-max / bloom up) and keep that Wappa center nice and happy — don’t want to stress it now. Overall — very pleased. The tent is showing the payoff from the SCROG & LST/HST work: even canopy, lots of tops, and colour + smell coming through strong. Can’t wait to see these fatten in the next 2–3 weeks. Green vibes ✌️💚

We are only on day 29 from first planting the seed. This last week I’ve been doing a lot of work to the girls . I even MADE A NEW INVENTION for my MARS HYDRO lights so I can get a full rotation ... almost 9 out of the 10 plants are being trained /defoliate for mainlining .. and yes I know that’s not they way most people do it.. I’m doing a little custom mainline with 2 nodes instead of just 1. I’ve definitely been under feeding them the last week and a half so I caught on to that and started making sure they get all the water/nutrients they need. (QUESTION)!!! Does anybody know why my Blueberry’s 2 new tops are looking like the leaves are filling up with little air bubbles?

Hello hello again! Starting Week 9 with again some flashlight nighttime shots because i fell in love with that. Growwise, theres nothing much to report. I keep everything more or less the same. Watering 2,5L after 5 Days, usually i had a pretty good 4 day rhythm going but last time they had a tad too much runoff so i decided to let her dry out for a day more. they liked that, back to the usual thirstiness. Nutes changed a bit (grow up from 2 to 2.5, bloom up from 3 to 3.2) but thats just because i did an oopsie. PH stays 6.5 in, 6.2 out. Trichomes i will check later. Pistils are still to white and they dont look ready yet, but its fun taking closeup pictures, so there you go. Other than that, ill skip my usual ramblings about how i love these, you all know that by now :) *Added Trichomes, daytime shots and timelapse at the end of week 9, until next week, happy growing! :

Week 7 Update I really love these Autos! They smell amazing 😍. So I think the purple pheno is have is a banana purple punch, it looks very much like one. You guys can let me know what you think. My Groilla Cookies is growing nicely, I can see she's fattening up. My other 2 to the back are starting to fatten up as well. They are about a week and some days behind. They started to flower late so I'm looking forward to seeing them fatten up. The Purple pheno will probably be the first to harvest. She's showing some fast growth compared to the others. See yall next week! Don't for get to use my code STLVDXW for an extra 15% off your next order at fast buds #fastbuds

Tangerine Band is growing great. I switched her light times yesterday to flowering times. She got a little defoliation today to help with stretching light. Everything is looking good. Thank you Exotic Seeds, Spider Farmer, 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.

I loved every min of her. Shes is hanging to dry and will be trimmed and weighted as she dries. Cant wait to smoke her. She was so heavy in the end she needed yo yo hangers to have her supported under all her weight. I would love the chance to grow her again. Oh my god she is sooo heavy like wow i cant even with her. The rosin she produced is just fire. Lemons and vanilla and so heavy. I would grow her a million times over.

Getting close to the finish and it’s very pungent smelling it’s hard to pin a nose on her! Still filling out and getting dense towards the end!

Day 63 from seed, about 5 weeks into flower 🌹✌️🏽🌱 Plant has finally stopped growing vertically, stopped at 57 cm, Considering the topping and LST, that's pretty high i would say. Had to do another huge defoliation and cutting down all immature branches and popcorn buds. Also started to add Atami bloombastic (pk14-15) for the second stage of flower. All in all everything is going smoothly now, buds getting bigger in size, although still fluffy. Hopefully they'll get danser in the next week or so🤞🏽 Until next week ppl 😎✌️🏽💚
