Week 1 now complete since we flipped the switch. Pistols are are creeping out slowly but surely. Decent. See what happens….

Happy to report that Miss Mango Kush survived 1 hail storm and the dog days of summer. Temperatures reached 100* and Gorilla Cookies weather the heat like she weathered the hail storm. Completely resistant to both. She was an easy grow. The only problem was me, the grower. I should be ashamed that I tried using Miracle Grow as an experiment. Glad I figured it out half way through the grow and changed my nutrient to @AdvancedNutrient Jungle Juice. Her wet weigh in was 64.12 grams and I am excited to see what her dry weight and smoke report will be. Thanks for following me in this grow. As always, comments are wonderful and I like hearing from you. DRY BUD WEIGHT IS .815 OZ--NOT A LOT BUT PRETTY GOOD WITH THE EXTREME HEAT AND HAIL STORM.

This week I top all 8 Green Poison ( 4dwc and 4 coco ) clones. They look healthy and happy and few days later I already start to low stress training (LST) them.

La tercera semana de floración se hace presente en nuestro jardín para las green gelato de RQS. Continuamos con las dosis de fertilizantes correspondientes a su tiempo de cultivo. Notamos ya la correcta formación de las flores lo que nos asegura unos resultados realmente esperanzadores! #Surcannabico #heavengrowligths #Royalqueenseeds #nutrientesquemanta

Week 1 of flower 👍🏾

What’s good everyone, this is the start of week 11 and the first week of flower. Yesterday I let the, sit in darkness for a whole day to jump start them and by the sight of it, they sure did jump a bit. MXOP is amazing she takes to what every you toss at her, she is hard to stress out. But after growing this cultivar a few times now I can say they don’t require much nitrogen as one would think they CRAVE calcium and possibly a bit of magnesium but from what I have seen they ALWAYS want more calcium weird might be the soil I have been using. This is the fun part, can’t wait to update you all next week FLOWER TIME BABY WOOOOOOO! Until next time growmies take it easy ✌️ 08/07/23

whit pre flowerinnng i use bloom stimulator, B.A.C and delta 9 alternates and delta 9 foliar, 3 times inn 1 month

Every week I take leaves off. Only the bigger ones tho I water twice a week but fertilise once

Now they are in 15 liter felt pots. I did some defoliation to open up the lower branches.

Almost ready to start feeding nutrients noticing better results so im guessing they love the new environment.

October 19th! This week we got the Diesel Berry Cough into its new home and topped them both! We also started low stress straining the Gorilla Zkittlez. They seem to be responding very well so far! Very healthy plants.

Well this was quite an experience, from the nice box the dutch passions come in to the germination , vigours sprouts came about, and took well to transplant. Potted each of these into their own soil and peat mix, layered seven of each i think with perlite. they got CELLMAX soil, best soil I've ever used for sure, it's horticultural soil so it's been steamed meaning no pollutants and no pests. The room itself this time i had reworked a bit, still loads of bends on the tubes though, but had a proper intake this time with a fine mesh filter so nothing got into the room. Had the pots elevated only by the time flower came around same for the CO2 so I only had a few good weeks with it. Didn't kill the plants though, so I'll review using it in my Six shooter diary, check it out . Anyway these plants veged out , and in the first weeks had the light too high for how strong/weak it was (it's crazy how close you need to have it actually!) and the little seedlings stretched some, so I LST'ed all of them. They all took to LST really well actually. The biotabs plant was the first one to sort of musle through her bindings, and i ended up feeling sorry for it and removing them thinking the bend was mostly done anyway. It didn't help that this was a corner plant and I just didnt really have access to it as nicely as the others. Anyway the LST wasnt done though and the plant fully redressed showing only a little bend towards its base at harvest time. The Mr. B's showed the best results on LST. It got bent 90° then grew out but managed to stick it's main cola out just in time i guess, so it had several mains maybe 3 maybe 4 and several side shoots. The Vertafort one took to LST the worst of the three (through no fault on vertafort's nutrient's part!) It basically got bent 90° but got held down too much by the bindings , and being a corner plant simply it got less light the whole grow, being overtaken by the other plants in the tent. Through veg though these grew to nice busheles, each in their own style, pushing out fat indica leaves , mostly being kept at appropriate VPDs. Note that the temps i've recorded are for maximum temperatures hey ! Anyway it I ended up with an uneven canopy by the start of flower stretch due to the different LST styles and the different growth rates, the vertafort one being basically stunted. During flower stretch these stretch ! lol doubled in size at a steady rate I can tell because the biotabs one was basically no longer LST'ed right? Anyway way blueberry styles not so much auto gsc styles that much I can tell you. The longer side colas a great too, they're much longer than the GSC's side colas and they have two or more flower nodes more each. By week 4 of flower the Mr. B's started to look pro, with a nice canopy and several distinguishable mains sticking out from the bush. The vertafort one was a corner plant so I just paid less attention to it - too bad for me ! Anyway the flowers themselves started to emerge with a calyx to larf ratio of 1:0 for the biotabs ones, and I started getting stoked. I could already tell from the squeeze that these would be nice and dense nuggy nug nugs just like I like them. The Mr.B's one was different though, the flowers grew all up and down the colas like they were all filled up. The sugar leafs themselves were like non-existant on Mr.B's but long and thin on the Mr.B's. Then the stacking began, last quite a while to finish up and rippen, i'd say from week 8 through 13. The trichomes reached out, filled up some, curled, in and were full white. I noticed some amber trichomes and it was time for the chop ! Throughout the grow I tried something new. From joining GD on my first grow I got loads of goodies from @Mrs_Larimar with the Mr.B's nutrients - thank you so much ! - and the biotabs contest , plus the Vertafort that came with seeds from the folks at Zambeza, Zamnesia, and RQS , all of these were dry nutrients, and I got those micro nutrients from my friends too. Great experience using dry nutrients, much more affordable on the whole, easier to measure too. That didnt stop me from messing up a few measures though ! So For most of the grow I planned to add my own micro. I had four micro powders made. One green one for early veg with all the "rare metals" in it at 2% , a bio cal mag, white powder for veg and early flower and a cal mag and mag sulfur I meant to use during flower. So I ended up giving a quarted dose of the organic cal mag most of the time then in flower still had them on a quarter dose of cal mag sulfur before i realised and switched up too late. My whole micro line up i think would cost 10 dollars retain and I had plenty of it left over i think it should last like 4 grows. Not that I'll use it again unless i can get a steady supply - a the travails of the underground micro nutrient market. Worked great though, pH neutral, i used it as spray too, next time I'll mix in humic acid directly in the same feed, because why not and because I would have massively helped. Sometimes in flower i used only calmagsulfur and maybe I didnt mix it in very well but i would dump everything on anyway , a couple time I would check after water and the clumps had formed like 3 inch crystal formations on the top of my soil... Anyone ever seen that before? maybe it's a good sign idk, i usually tried plain water to dissolve them asap. The biotabs worked great on the Colorado cookies though, that much I can say, no excesses of any sort detected, leaves weren't too dark green at all. Mr.B's turned out a BEAST , but that could be from the LST aswell... the vertafort one ended up being a very healthy plant that never lacked anything either. Around halfway through flower I started traing the colas upwards where they were drooping on the biotabs plants and the Mr.b's plant, glad i did because i think plants like to make colas going straight up right? Chopped these at the top of week 14 which is 95 days from the moment i dunked them into the water kept a calendar which I'll show you. Hung to dry for 10 days, then jarred with the 62% boveda, burped inspected daily for a week, then weekly for two weeks. I weighted what I kept lol , no small buds this time, finally my grower dream realized ! So happy i got two (maybe three phenos) because I loved the flowers on the biotabs but I also loved the yielding of the LST'ed pheno. Plenty of wasted cola space though if I'm honest, should have defoliated more, maybe done that just at the edge of veg or something, maybe next time I'll try to flux like @silky_smooth so I can keep them in veg longer and make me a couple beasts. Had to travel to for two halfway through, so what I did was to put perlite in the trays, get the pots off their grills and onto the perlite then i bottom fed plain water, the idea being that the perlite would keep the water from evaporating from the trays too quickly, just as i was loading up the trays , the nex day I saw three thrips but they were flying all wierd and all strange so i thought maybe the airflow was f-ing them up ... and i had to leave anyway. Got back and the pots were bone dry but the plants hadn't died, and the temps were way up. I think the remaining perlite absorbs heat... Anyway started top feeding them again but by this time they were showing signs of stress especially the biotabs one, the mr.b's kinda recovered, and the vertafort was healthy enough it just looked like a bit of magnesium issue. May this could be a good technique for other folks to try. Like i said the perlite might absorb heat, so remove it when you dont need it anymore (i had issues with heat). Over all these gens are yielders, had some of my best work in here, and some less good work. I like having been able to use the GD platform as a companion app, was great fun really. it's great to be able to put all your pictures up and see them side by side, i tried to keep it organised so you and I can see some interesting things like the "three stages of LST" and other interesting nuggets of info. Speaking of nuggets I'll try to get some more and some better pics of the nugs in. Hope you'll visit this again 🚀 EDIT: made some bubble hash for the first time, grower's priviledge ! only used the stems stalks and leafs for it, and it came out really delicious, smells like perfume, burns like incense and tastes like vanila and spices/hash lol basically used some bubble bags , rand the water through once, got negligeable 120s 75s and 45s but got some 25 quite a lot. ran it again, same results with just about the same amout of 25s, i thought i could go a third one, but got negligeable everything lol. Two passes for whatever that is in bubble hash lol, it's still got to dry for another week - bubble hash is kinda of the grower's priviledge, definitely recommend doing it ! 🚀

Going to start flushing in about a week or so

1 down 1 To go 497g wet ;)))))

Last time I did defoliation Now I hoop to get a big harvest of 200 gr dry weight will be nice

Growth seems to be steady, one of the GSC girls is a day behind all the rest but only as I planted it a day later than the rest. Not sure what I think of fem autos yet as I normally only grow feminised seeds. Keeping a close eye on temps, humidity. Foliar spraying them twice a day or so. Can't wait to see them over the next few weeks. The Stardawg seems to be slightly ahead GSC with growth rate.

Hello my friends 👨‍🌾👩‍🌾, This 5th flowering week was good, Buds bump much this week 🌲 and continue to along. And sweet orange 🍊 pistil. I just spray an insecticide in the box, not really on the plants, because lot of flyers.... Since look a bit better. 💦 1 Watering this week 1.8l/plant . Water + Terra Flores + Canna Boost + pk 13-14 PH@6 Lamp @100% Thanks community for follow, likes, comments, always a pleasure 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾❤️🌲 See you next week 👊👊 Mars Hydro - TS 1000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ts-1000-led-grow-light Mars Hydro - FC3000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/fc-3000-samsung-lm301b-led-grow-light Mars Hydro - SP3000 https://www.mars-hydro.com/sp-3000-samsung-lm301b-greenhouse-led-grow-light The High Chameleon - Vannila T https://www.thehighchameleon.com/shop/vanilla-t-5

End week 3 plants still looking healthy. Removed couple fan leaves blocking bud sites. Temps getting hot outside in spring so tent temps have gone up but still in range to thrive. Humidity is mostly the easiest to control

She didn't care for the high dli I had goin apparently. Seems she topped herself from the light , dimmed back to a 40DLI and all is well looking. Rest of her looks nice and healthy just my mistake trying to push alil more with the co2 going for the photos In the room. But really strong smell of candy with this one right now, Skittles or Starburst I can quite place it without having the candy in my face too. Curious to see how it finishes tho, 57 days roughly from seed so she's going pretty well. Not looking for any specific number of days. She goes till It's goes basically .. Into week 8 we go !!
