Ok so this week has been awesome! These girls are so much fun to watch! They seem to be doing very well! We have stronger lights now, We are using a 1000 watt, Plus a 2000 watt Spider light LED. Our room is 2x5. We raised them up today to 24inches away hoping to gain some height. Plant #1 we topped at 11 days and did some LST and girl #2 we just let it be. We have removed leaves from both plants. I am super excited to see how it goes 💨 💨 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤩🤩

As of day 50, the plant is pretty much just putting on flower weight and developing terpenes. It is starting to smell of citrus and blueberries which gives me high hopes for it's final taste. It is also starting to heavily produce trichomes, even on fan leaves and stems. This is beyond any autos I have grown in the past, so I have to give credit to the genetics and the hydroponic grow method. As long as nothing horrible happens in the next few weeks this plant is going to produce a really nice harvest. Thanks for reading! 🌱👍 Day 53: it has developed a strong and distinct smell of blueberries.

She is growing strong and healthy...

She is growing strong and healthy....

******** Week 9 - Feb 3 to 9/20 (Days 57 - 63 from seed popping out) She has continued to swell this week and stacking her buds. The hairs are turning this week. More at the top of the plant but some on the bottom as well. Still has many white hairs and a good thickness as well. This week has been one of those......is today the last feed.....no one more.......is today last feed......no one more.....🤨🧐🤨🧐 😃😃😃 And so it finally came down to Saturday Feb 8, Day 62 as the last day of feed. Plan it to just flush with water and Rezin & Liquid Weight to the end.....or early 70’s anyway. Kind of a boring week in a way because she has been such an awesome girl to grow!! She is dense with a lot of leaves but I am trusting this next week will continue to bring significant swelling. She has been fine with the fluctuations that happen through a grow and has been vigorous all the way through.....great genetics! She is a real beautiful little girl with how she has grown....a couple of the pictures on the stand show just how well she grew and then how much bud is now on those branches. On bigger branches I would clip off another node lower than I did to give a little more energy to fill in the tops. Not sure this girls top colas will fill in as much as one would like but........take your time girl😀 Also.....I think it could be worth a run doing this girl in a 5 gal pot.....if she has no problem going 77 days or so then maybe there is time build a nice mass???? I am concerned at the end of the week that I may be seeing signs of root bound with the leaves clawing down?????? Don’t think its light.....was the same the morning before watering so don’t feel its over watering......could be nitrogen toxicity???? Not going to chase it at this stage but would like to know for next run to correct. Became more visible Feb 6/7/8 idea....appreciate any comments😕 Have not spent anytime looking at Trich colour this week.....too early anyway. What I have noticed is one crazy amount of frost forming on this girl in the last week!!!!! Wednesday had to do a double take on some of the images and zoomed in on a bud.....DAMN!!!!💪👍🙏 Hope she continues to be happy and keeps pushing out them trichs.......DAMN😃😃😃 Changed the light schedule again this week. Moved her to 19.5 hours of light because she is still not falling to sleep at lights out. Will be avoiding use of Flawless Finish for now and I suspect she has two weeks left in her. If something changes and she ripens quicker then may use. Little more detail to come.......... Feb 3/20 - Day 57 - Water feed today. Runoff in tray was 6.1pH.....good - 3L given with Sensyzime @ 1ml/L. 80ppm and 6.15pH going in. Feb 4/20 - Day 58 - Full feed today. Pot still had some weight. - 3L off full feed with 1125ppm and 6.05pH - Runoff water in tray before feed: 900ppm and 6.03pH - Runoff water in tray after feed: 1300ppm and 6.2pH - she had small leafstrip today. - removed most of the LST today. Left two ties. Feb 5/20 - Day 59 - nothing today. - Light cycle changed to 19.5hrs on and 4.5hrs off. - Her hairs are still long an reaching.....good sign for growing longer Feb 6/20 - Day 60 - Verify medium today....close to flush - 3L feed of Sensyzime and Rezin @ 2ml/L and Liquid Weight @ 1.5ml/L. = 100ppm and 5.8pH - Runoff was 680ppm and 6.25pH. - ppm is a little low and pH is creeping up. Feb 7/20 - Day 61 - Nothing today, still heavy. - slow growth happening??? Thickening behind the scenes??? Feb 8/20 - Day 62 - ********Last Feed******** - Full strength feed......base nutes both at 0.5ml/L - 6L feed with 1150ppm and 5.4pH going in. - pH was a little high so lowered for this feed. - Medium got a good soak and good runoff amount - Runoff: 1500ppm with 6.05pH - ppm might be a little high but hopeful she will go two weeks......will be flush a fair bit of water at minimum. Feb 9/20 - Day 63 - Dry out day - the "CLAW" is more prominent today. Mainly on top couple of leaves on the large colas. - raised the light a bit.....will use lower pH water in flush......not much else other than let her dry out at this stage....... Hope we can drag out harvest day until Feb 22 or 23rd.......🤞😁😁😁.....Thanks for the read and hope you have a smooth week!

2/8 Week 13 ! Her drinking is falling, almost a quart less today. Moving into flush range as the hairs are beginning to curl and seeing some small showings of amber. Reducing the Bloom nuets to 5ml until I see its time to change again, increasing PK slightly. Prob two days then go to full PK (15ml) to take her into flush. Plan a fast flush with an agent to speed things along. 2/9 Fed 5ml/gal CT Bloom A/B 12ml/gal Peak Another day 2/10 Leaving feeding as is, building nicely leaving the plant positioned as is think this is the best compromise between all the plants in the tent. Not sure how long this will go at this point, but not cutting her short for anything. Pics 2/12 Beginning to back off the PK leaving the CocoTek at a low dose. Plan to have the PK gone in a day or so but leaving the CT until flush. Just following some new ideas on using PKs and Finishers. Pics and vid of buds using a couple of filters just trying to show these two foot long buds without messing with the dark cycle. Hope it helps 2/13 Pics that you can actually see! Due to some issues, one is on this grow (I need to increase potency on Tara), changing out the HPS for MH for a while, may finish under it depends on the other grow. Looking at the trics I have decided to drop the PK and go to normal levels of Bloom nuets until flush. Continuing to keep her cleaned out as much as needed so light gets all the way down. 2/14 Pics of the rearranged tent to end the week, Realize now how much time switching the lights to 12-12 has added to Tara's finishing time. Had no real choice but its a point learned. Happy with her progress

2/5 Week 6 Did some defoliation to keep things clean She just doing so well sex is showing Leave nuets as is She has been chosen to go into the big tent first and flipped three days before the rest of her cousins. Be a few days 2/7 Into Flowering tent flipped to 12-12 nuets adjusted slightly 2/9 New pics

2/5 Week 6 May be last week of veg kind of depends on factors outside the grow. Lets hope Keeping the Si included and leaving nuets as is. Continuing to defoliate as needed to keep things civil in the small tent, Moya is crowded. Canopy is at 30" plants about 20" 2/6 Better plan! Found a table at Goodwill that will fit in the flower tent and allow two plants to be moved there tomorrow. So tomorrow is the day, two plants will remain in Moya, prob Jool and Zhaan 2/7 Aeryn is in flower tent flipped to 12-12 Jool and Zhaan in small tent, Moya, also flipped to 12-12 Here we go Feed set as above, keeping levels low at this point 2/8 Second day May reduce feed a bit, white tips One time feed of Kangaroots 10ml/gal Keeping things defoliated so the middle gets lots of light 2/8 Last attempt to try and get rid of those white tips. Further reduced feed but added just a touch of cal-mag to make up for it. If this doesnt work I am just feeding them and ignoring the tips. Flowering is starting to show, more on Aeryn being under the HPS than Jool and Zhaan under the LEDs. Continuing to defoliate as needed to keep bud sites in light. 2/10 Bringing down the nuets to under 500ppm did the trick on the white tips but can not leave things there so back to some sane level and I am just going to ignore it. Stretch is starting for real 😳 2/11 Since the tip burning is an issue with N, I am going to move the girls to all bloom tomorrow with today as a transition. Strain is absolutely sensitive to Nitrogen.

Start of week four and things are looking great! Girls recovered from day 21 defoliation. I’m pretty sure I did mess up and didn’t leave enough nodes, but only time will tell! Buds look delicious but not much of a smell yet

Another good and bad weed. Bad: Lost a LED and PC due to power surge!! Might be time to consider a proper UPS. Some issues with drain system changes, first iteration dumped 10 gallons of nutes into tent due to leaky fitting. Second iteration dropped another 10 gallons outside of tent due to the hose slipping out of nute res when draining. Some lessons learned. Good: Drain system finally hammered out properly, working great with no issues. No more grow room swimming pools. Ramblings: Humdity was nice and high in tent for some reason; probably something to do with nute swimming pool. Floors are nice and clean now, almost like they were freshly mopped. Ordered a samsung quantum LED light for replacing the fried LED. Installing for next week and flowering cycle switch. Overall the plants look healthy and no real issues despite my many attempts on killing them. The blurple vs white pics; was playing with HDR setting on camera; much better without purple.

Day 139! (08 February 2020) Spider mites seem under control, but with long flowering bitches like these I start worrying for mold in the last weeks of flowering because it's very rare to have a humidity lower than 60% throughout the year in this country. I took a sample to dry and test how it is going, I found a broken shoot (I don't know how it happened) and I removed it for drying. Luckily, it was a shoot containing lower buds and it was not even heavy. But for the sake of trying how she is going, in some way I celebrate this... Also I removed the portion where I firstly saw that white mold was forming, before it spreads its f*cking spores everywhere. I reduced fertilizer from 0,4 g/L to 0.2 g/L as for ripening time. She's started to lose vigor, she's entering senescence and her time is coming, after seeing her every day in the last months, we're kind of a long time relatives. I see she's aged almost enough for harvest. Day 140 It's the lady's last month and Just hope I wouldn't lose any bud because of mold. Spider mites is a controlled infection but it worries me not. Also I regret having had to use neem oil for the f*cking spiders, I wish that the chemicals in it wouldn't impart an odd taste to the buds. I won't do any other drench until harvest, flush mediated.

So, by the look of the trichomes I assume its a harvest time! Weighting and taste review after drying and curing. For now I could that that despite all the mistakes I made the plant managed to live till the end, smell wonderful and looks tempting.

02.08.20 - Starts week 7 according to Seedsman this is a 75-day seed to maturity grow right at 11 weeks, I think we are on track but feel it will push 12 weeks, the stems are loaded with flowers and I am confident they will fell in to produce some very large nugs - exciting to say the least! So tomorrow I pick up my items needed to start brewing compost tea - will shoot a quick video of the process / then will feed with compost tea on Monday / this should carry the plants through harvest. 02.09.20 - Started up my Compost Tea today - Recipe: 2 Cups Worm Castings (Used a Paint Strainer Bag), 1 Tablespoon Kelp Extract, 1 Tablespoon Fish Extract, 2 Table Spoons Molasses, brew for 24/36 hours. 02.10.20 - Today just watered the plants with my first compost tea, it looked amazing, had a beautiful white protein foam on the top - I will have a look at the plant's first thing in the morning and see if they are dancing! 02.11.20 - Just a quick update - plants continue to grow big great genetics! 02.12.20 - Keeping it simple, light watering - temps are good - buds are getting larger - all in all thinngs are looking great!

Heading into the third week of flower. Everything has gone well so far. I have an average of 15" growth above the screen. Raised the tent 15" to the tops of the rdwc buckets.

Последний раз полил компотом. Далее, раз вода, и начинаю РИПЕНить, дней 10-12. Проба снята, с подшишников :) Оочень даже и очень, потенциал хороший.
