Quite a sad run to be honest, but it's all due to bad decisions on my side. I decided to top her and even though she seemed to take it well, it might have triggered something. She also was a stretcher with such a large inter-nodal space that I didn't find necessary to defoliate anything and I didn't remove any budsites. The result was a ton of small popcorn buds. And to not help, I waited way too long before giving her nutes, thinking I could do all the run without using any but even when I started giving her some, the schedule was close to being improvised. I would normally have given her more time to flower but a space problem in the tent caused me to chop her down prematurely, still with a majority of cloudy trichomes and some amber ones. I would definitely redo some stuff but she still outputted some very decent flowers, effect and taste wise because let's be real, they look terrible, almost like seaweed. I'd love to retry this strain.

I basically skipped week 17 as there was nothing new except I added some compost tea that I made with come compost, vegetable scraps, a few cedar clippings and neam oil (oh and some fertilizer ... I forget what) Sprayed with neam oil/soap mix

Some of the older leaves started yellowing, so I used a little bit of mineral fertilizer and also added a spoonful of bone and blood meal. Although I think it is quite natural for them to use mobile resources and for leaves to die off, I added some fertilizer just once, especially for the nitrogen deficiency. But it will be a one-time thing. Other than that, nothing special happened. I do hope that the buds are getting bigger, but right now, I don't see much progress this week, except on the buds on the lower branches. In less than two weeks, my grow tent and new setup should arrive, so maybe she will finish inside a proper tent, and I'll get my kitchen back 😂 She is really smelly right now.

- LST continues by stretching the plant outwards. - Both plants continue to stretch. Lamp distance is at 45 cm now. - Soft Defoliation continues. I am trying to remove fan leaves shadowing potential bud sides. But still leaving outskirt fan leaves. A big defoliation and lollipopping will be applied end of 3rd week. - Light intensity is at 100% since 12.06. The heat is still manageable as the outside weather is still around 21 C during day and around 10 C at night (Plants day). - VPD fluctuated this week between 1.0 and 1.6 kPa , averaging at 1,32 kPa. I still manage to gradually increase the VPD. - Tent temperature is much more stabilized at 22 at night and 26 Celsius at day time, averaging at 23.6. Temp is a little lower than last week even with increased light intensity due to the cold weather in Berlin. Still didn't increase the exhaust fan speed. New plan is to increase it on 16th Jun when the outside weather temperature starts to increase. - Humidity fluctuated between 50-65% this week, averaging at 54.6%. I managed to decrease the humidity gradually week on week but there are huge spikes on rainy days. BonAura AirOne dehumidifier continues to collect around 200 ml of water per day which does not seem to have an huge impact over the humidity. - This week, I increased the water Ph as the medium Ph is still under 6 cruising around 5,8. Mid week, I watered with an higher PH of 7,6, followed by a watering of 6.8 Ph. This even did not increase the medium Ph as expected. - Started to see some yellowing on the tips of the 2 or 3 leaves which seems like a Potassium or Calcium deficiency but I believe that it is related to the PH of the medium. Still observing before making any major nutrient increase. - Added an extra 20 grams of BioBloom (GreenHouse Feeding) per pot this week as the planned Flowering cycle is 9 weeks.

Day 49: Week 7 behind 8s mow and onto the final stretch now. These ladies have been great performers for me in the grow I wish I had more of them to do !!!... Fft#9 is bursting with fresh pistils again now and should swell like a trooper this week. Rhe bids are rock solid under the new pistils and her smellnis so sweet like picked fruit now.Their size is more than I expected but had hoped they would attain before the final swell and ripening. She has a good few hidden gems tucked away below decks too which will be fun to find on harvest and trim. Her biggest main is doing excellent and a great guide for her siblings to grow too hopefully. FFT#10 Is looking mean and nasty in a good way. Her darkness warns of impending loss of clarity and vision if messed with in my opinion !!!. lol She looks so different to the other ladies and her bud structure is below the main tops is a little less compacted. She is covered in trichs and her can sweetness is blatent at the slightest touch. She wanted to grow her way throughout the grow and even when tied and bent , she found a way to upset the symmetrical desire I had in mind Cant beat an independent lady who knows best !. She is so tacky when handled too. I thought she was so close to finish but she is still putting a few new pistils out over her mains so she may go another 2 weeks too. I am determined to hit the sweet spots with these two ladies and am also applying a little drought stress for the next 7 days This is to test the theory out a little and see if we can get them as pitent as possible too. fingers crossed Growmies. be safe and well. thanks for stopping by. UPDATE##### Day 54 and the FFT#10 is done she finished beautifully and will be trimmed for a low slow dry amd harvest.

Welcome to week 6 / week 3 of flowering! She stretched like crazy the past 10 days, but it has slowed down now as we enter week #6. Everything has gone very smoothly so far. I will probably do some defoliation this week because it’s getting crowded in the middle. ✅Day 36: No water. ✅Day 37: No water. ✅Day 38: 96oz of water. Defoliated bottom and center. ✅Day 39: No water. ✅Day 40: 96oz of water. ✅Day 41: No water. ✅Day 42: 96oz of water.

These girls are still bulking up but the trichs are still not fully cloudy, I'll give them another week or so. They are becoming heavy now and the branches are starting to lean so I might have to add some support soon

Day 21 in flower and did a leaf stripping. Using gnatrol for fungus gnats which have exploded in population. Maybe not the two best strains for scrog. Blueberry doesn’t like to bend and death bubba is super leafy. But life goes on. See how she goes

10/29/19 - All is going good. The stretch always amazes me on how fast they grow! Watering 4 cups of water each plant every three days. I did not switch to 13/11 yet. I will do that the last few weeks. I moved the lights up to compensate for the stretch so lets see what that does. 10/31/19 - Moved the one that is not flourishing from the net to the side. The other are rocking the house!!! Did a bunch or rearranging and LST in the net. Should be set this week to leave it all alone. I also did a bunch of defoliation. Too bad I was not going to clone this strain anymore, cause there was some great cuttings. 👌

And im in first flowering Week since last sunday, so far i really can't complain. Everything looks healthy and fine. Plant 3 is still kinda weaker/slower and Plant 4 seems to want to do some sativa things and grows up like hell but oh well, at least Plant 1 and 2 just grow as they should. This week i made the Bio Tabs compost tea for the first time and the plants seem to love it. Each one received 500ml if it. Can't wait to see the results at the end of the run. Again thanks to Bio Tabs for sending it out so i can test it. Humidity was pretty high because of constant rain this week, but it seems like i have made it through it, now just to make sure to finish this run before the summer heat will come. I removed a few leaves here and there because they were stacking or blocking light, i will defoliate in 1-2 weeks for real. Sadly Plant 4 needed an even higher stool then last weeks, so it's on the same height as the others. It was getting not enough light this deep down. That is also because why the scrog net does look like it does right now. I try to make it more "appealing" tonight, but i don't want to break anything and it works like it should right now, so yeah it looks stupid but it's alright. See you next week and thanks for all the likes and comments. 😍🙌

Hallo und herzlich Willkommen, Viel gibt es hier momentan nicht zu sagen. Die eine Dame Stagniert im Wachstum und benötigt dahingehend immer weniger zu trinken. Die andere hingegen benötigt jetzt einiges um sie wieder auf den richtigen Pfad zu bekommen. Mal schauenwie sie nächste Woche wirkt. Ansonsten allen Growmies eine angenehme und erfolgreiche Woche gewünscht! Vielen Dank im Voraus für das verfolgen oder den Besuch dieses Update, Kommentare wie auch likes! VG✌️
