What is up you sexy displays of humanness? It's week something lol.. 9 I think. I always forget if a week is passed then counted or vice versa lol. The plants look waaaaay better from the first time I flowered. I think the environmental controls like the AC and the light distance are finally all getting locked in. I could be messing up nutrients but based on what I see I'm not burning or underfeeding to my knowledge. I'm praying for that last fattening week for these things to bulk up because I'm pretty sure they have maybeeeeee 2 weeks then a 3-day flush. Yall are the experts though so feel free to weigh in. Especially with the plants looking all over the place. Ill bust out the electronic microscope for some trichome pics next week closer towards harvest time. I keep reading it's a long flower and they still have a lot of white pistons. Plants are hella icier though compared to the first run, they look stickier, and overall I'm feeling more accomplished. I can't tell if I'm leagues away from pulling 1 lb per plant. Now the right light...... ugh.. idk why but I was trying to get my damn BN link dual timer programmed bc I have the closet in there still vegging and once I plugged everything in that right light had half the board go out again. This happened a while back and after I've checked all the connections it just randomly came back on one day and I have not questioned it over the months. Kinda pissed I cant have 1 smooth day but that's life I guess haha. oh weird question but my rooms are completely sealed. they don't really have ducting or new air pumping in. Could the plants be suffocating themselves getting that big and flowering in a closed room? I've heard the air you breathe is more than enough most time and I don't want to burn unnecessary money but If they are logically just not getting enough Co2 to transpire then.. ya.. you get my point lol. Oh and I scratched the pk 13/14 bc i felt like I was pushing my luck with it only recommended for 1 week and also it's about the end of my knowledge so I figured cutting something extra was the safe bet. the leaves are all dark too

WEEK 7 My plant is now well into flowering, but hasn’t stretched much so far. That might be due to the large number of shoots that have developed. Still, there’s already a decent amount of visible buds, which makes me really happy. I expect she’ll gain a bit more height, but overall she’ll likely stay compact and bushy. I’m satisfied and excited to see more of what’s to come. This week, my lamp ran at 600 PPFD, and I watered once with plain water and once with nutrient solution.

Hello Diary, Titan F1 is ready for harvest, on day 63. Milky Way F1 and Apollo F1 will wait another week in my estimation. So, 72 days since I put the seed in the ground. 68 days since Titan F1 sprouted. Really fast, and the result is incredible. Titan F1 is a really beautiful plant. The flowers are hard to the touch, really compact, and smell wonderful. The flowers are covered with trichomes and it looks like it is covered with ice crystals. Watering was more frequent this week due to the high temperatures, they needed a lot of water and so did the Titan F1. At the end of the week, the 63rd day to be exact, after taking photos, I cut branch by branch and put them in a cardboard box to dry. Considering that two plants still remained on the farm, I had to protect the flowers from the penetration of light. Here's what it looked like last week. 26/06/2023 - Day 58. Watering. Only two days later, the plants drank all the water, so I watered them with two liters for each individual plant. 29/06/2023 - Day 61. Watering. I repeated the procedure as I did three days earlier. 01/07/2023. - Day 63. Photographing plants. After I took the photos, I cut the Titan F1 branch by branch and put it in a cardboard box to dry. That's all I went through with the Titan, I wrote and documented as much as I could. If anyone has a question related to this strain, feel free to write in the inbox.

7/18 Plants are looking great. I was able to rearrange the plants so they have a little bit more space and so I can get around every plant. I have small random pest damage (i.e. I caught a four lined plant bug while hunting jpn beetles) but not enough h to warrant treatment. I will probably spray before flower. Sun's out amd plants were praying. I rotated a couple and it only took a few hours for them to "straighten out." I went to look again rhis morning and made the final determination to expand the cage. I'm looking for the 2x4's and the wire in the next couple days. The work that ive done now will but me sometime. I wonder how this rain impacted my soil. 7/19 Plants are looking fantastic. The stretch is starting. One purple punch looks like it's beginning to flower. I think I'm entering the transition period. Jpn beetle damage is evident but not significant. I defoliated a leaf with a a leafminwr or something in it. It's so much easier to get around the plants now. I'm seeing some chunks missing sporadically though. Went to the roses out back and found TONS of jpn beetleson top of each other reproducing. They destroyed that rose bush. I'm going to keep it as a trap plant. My dad's girlfriend wanted to spray it but that doesn't make sense as theflowers are all gone. Dad's grabbing the materials to extend the cage today I think. Right now I can get around every plant but the two big ones in the back. I just cant get to the backs of them and they are huge. Almost reaching the top of the cage. A 4'-6' extension will do wonders in flower. Can't wait. UPDATE: Dad got the 2x4's and we assembled the extension and attached it. He's grabbing the wire as I type this. This worked out beautifully. I had no idea how big the blueberry cheese in the 50 gallon was! This extension (4ft i think) is PERFECT! Then I can get a little extra wire and pull it out if I wanted to. I think I have another 2x4 that I'm going to use in the middle. Lots of great pics and a video I'll upload tomorrow. Hot af today and humidity still super high. Even the commercial dudes was surprised I don't have wpm l and that judging by some of my plants structure that I may do better than I think. I certainly hope so. I WATERED 3 GALLONS OVER THE WHOLE GARDEN. The blueberry cheese in smart pots were drooping. They drink far more water than tje others. I would've given more but we are supposed to have thunderstorms. I left my back tarp off for the night. It will increase airflow and wind is down. I feel like this is going to be my year. 7/20 I updated and loaded everything on the app but notjing would save. Did it again in the website hopfully this saves i didnt put it all up. Didn't water the plants today. Bags seemed okay weight wise. Good thing I did the extension yesterday because those three plants were drooping they were so thirsty. I focused most of the water yesterday on those plants that needed it. The others were somewhat dry but still had some weight. Like i said the blc drinks much more water than any of the other plants. I'm impressed with the growth I'm seeing. Especially since I have been being very stingy with the water and I've only fed like twice and that was just the kelp me/you and big bloom in negligible amounts. I'm watching for deficiencies. I'm just not seeing them. I'm picking up the wire and finishing the extension and then rearranging things. I'll update. UPDATE: WATERED 4 GALLONS CONCENTRATING ON THE PLANTS THAT WERE DROOPING THE MOST. FINISHED ENCLOSURE AND INCREASED PLANT SPACE. TRELLIS WILL GO UP THIS WEEK. VIDEOS WILL BE UPLOADED TOMORROW. 7/21 I should've watered more volume last night. I noticed two plants that seemed much lighter than the rest. After some deliberation I gave them each a half gallon of water. One was the purple punch in the 10 that's huge amd the other was that huge blueberry cheese. I think I'm going to swap places with them, take out a pallet and get some other way to elevate that ONE plant and I'll have even more room. Then I'll add my supports. It's a dream working in there now. I noticed some small interior leaves being used up and dieing. I defoliated them but it was only a couple. I'll need to start nutes at some point. Doesn't need it yet though. I'm going to add some kelp me/you for the heat stress. I need to get the watering down better but it's more difficult when they each have different needs. I kinda have to read the plant. I'd rather be overwatered than underwatered. I tried to upload what I could but some won't. UPDATE: I went over to clip off some fencing that was doubled up AND just to check on tge girls. Found two caterpillars (small but hairy so they were older not the inch worms and possibly what has been contributing to damage on those plants. Things are spread out so it will be harder for insects to move from plant to plant and I have better air flow. I worry that leaving my tarp off might lead to high winds and plants not able to take it buf I digress. I'll add supports later. Plants are huge and drinking far more water than I've been giving them. When I got there several were drooped right over and dry as a bone. The bags are essentially all roots now. I mixed up 8 gallons of water and split it between the plants. I gave less to the two Co trainer plants that weren't drooping and the 10 I watered yesterday that wasn't drooping but for the most part the ones that needed if got at least a gallon or more. The others a little under a gallon. It might rain A LITTLE tonight too. Oh, and since it's been so hot I added 1/2 tsp per gallon of kelp me kelp you to help the plants deal with heat stress. I also noticed that some of the very bottom interior leaves are being used up. I have a feeling ill need to switch to nutes pretty soon. Plus I need to suppirt those plants if I'm going to leave that tarp off and Gove them air. Took a video. But it won't upload here. I'll have to wait till tomm. 7/22 Didn't have much timevthis morning bit I dod a video. Boy those plants loved that water and that kelp. This morning everyone was standing straight up at attention. Supposed to get rain last night but didn't. Good thing I watered. I think I'm going to up the water next watering and then again to the 10% mark if necessary. Especially with the Blueberry cheeses. I'm noticing that a FEW INTERIOR leaves are showing nute deficiencies so I'm probably going to have to start feeding soon. I'll update later. UPDATE: Went back over and cut off the extra wire. I'm going to need to water more volume. Specifically on two plants. The two huge blueberry cheese in 20 gallon smart bags dries out much faster than the rest. I'll have to out that on a different schedule or increase the amount given. Next watering will be 1.5 or 2 gallons a plant and it might be tomorrow from what I was seeing. It's super hot and with the added airflow the bags dry out faster. I also went through EACH plant looking for pests and defoliating old leaves that needed it. Plants are still nice and green but a VERY few older interior leaves are showing deficiencies. I know this is Normal especially since they are trying n g to transition to flower. I also saw pest damage on a couple plants. Four lined plant bug. I already found the one on the other plant and killed it but I'm considering doing a spray before flower. I'm thinking either captain Jack as a "catch all", BT which works great but mostly just on pillars or the organocide bee safe 3 in one pesticide. I also have pyrethium and other things. Thus far picking things off manually has been good enough. At the very least they will get an application of BT very soon. 7/23 Held off on watering this morning. Supposed to get thunder storms I DID split a gallon with two blueberry cheese that were the lightest in the 20 gallon smart pots. Thet drink way more. My water volume is going to need to increase. We haven't had nearly enough rain. I'm going to bump it up to 1.5 to 2 gallons each plant which will be 10% for the 20s and a little less for the others. I'm still seeing various pest damage. Nothing bad but I found another couples leaves that were chomped on by a four lined plant bug so I'm debating applying something tonight when I water. I'm also noticing old leaves being used up and some interior leaves showing slight deficiencies. It will be time to start nutes soon. I'll update as I go. UPDATE: GOT THE FEELING I NEEDED TO CHECK THE PLANTS. SOMETHING DODNT LOOK RIGHT ON THE CAMS. WENT OVER AND EVERY PLANT BUT THE TWO I SPLIT A GALLON WITH AND THE PLANT IN THE 50 WERE DROOPED RIGHT OVER. LIFELESS. I SHOULD'VE WATERED THIS MORNING BUT I DIDNT HAVE TIME. I FIGURED THEY COULD WAIT UNTIL NIGHT. EACH PLANT GOT 1.5 GALLONS AT LEAST. I USED SIXTEEN OR SEVENTEEN GALLONS ON THE GARDEN. I GAVE EACH CONTAINER PLANT ONE GALLON AND GOT RUN OFF FROM BOTH. IM NOTICING SKIGHT FADING IN LEAVES BUT IM NOT INTRODUCING NUTES TO UNDERWATERED PLANTS. I THINK 10% IS GONNA BE TGE MAGIC NUMBER. 2 GALLONS EACH. EVEN THE 10 GALLON SMART POT. ALMLST AS BIG AS THE 30S BUT DRIES OUT QUICKER. 7/24 Plants looked fantastic this morning. Defoliated a few leaves that needed it. Showed my commercial buddy and he said things looked fantastic. Since the soils still holding nutes and I'm not seeing many deficiencies I may hold off on feeding. I'm starting early flower now. I will be using nutes soon. I think ive got the watering schedule pretty much down.

Going strong and taking up lots of fluids. 2 + litres every second day. I’m going through 100 plus litres a week with all 4 tents in early flower 🤦‍♂️Auto watering would be helpful but I think they like the random feeds with different ranges of ph I try to never keep the ph spot on, let it float up or down a few points not much just enough for the plants to get different amounts so far it’s been working for me.. happy growing friends

Buuueno, engorda bien como pelotas de golf, problema? Que por lo que voy viendo, la critical aprecia mas ir de menos en la comida, que venirse arriba, y... Bloqueo con sobrefertilización. Creo que hay algun bloqueo que no permite bien la absorción de magnesio y de ahí las hojas amarillas, igualmente iré viendo con el tiempo, todo es prueba y error. Un poquitin sad por estar siempre al puto pie del cañón y que por cosas incontrolables como la altas temperaturas, surjan otros problemas como bloqueos y tal cual pascual, una mierda todo, pero bueno, la planta se sigue viendo biien, los pelitos blancos siiguen ahí creciendo y los cogollos siguen engordando. Ya llegará un dia que saque una cosecha perfecta xD para proximos cultivos también cambiaré el metodo de fertilización y me tengo pensado hacer un supersoil organico. PD: IMPORTANTE, voy a poner datos que no solía poner por la "dificultad" entre muchas comillas ya que es dificultad por una situación especifica, de sacar y es que como antes comentaba, habían bloqueos y tal... Bien, he medido el agua de drenaje de cada planta. En esta los valores de ph estan mas o menos bien, peeero la EC era lejia viva! En esta planta el ph era de 6.24 y la EC era de 12.1 MILISIMENS! que no microsimens... Una toxicidad altísima! Muy similar a las otras 4. Básicamente mis riegos eran por lo general 2 a la semana, uno de fertilizantes base con el especifico de cada fase que toque, y el segundo riego era de encimas con normalmente calmag (fertilizante muuuy salino) y a eso le juntamos que normalmente los riegos eran justitos, normalmente no había drenaje, por lo que las sales en el sustrato se iban acumulando hasta estos puntos. Hoy, tras varios dias de dejar secar las macetas, incluso buscando un poco de estres hidrico, he metido un riego de 6L por maceta de agua con el producto Flush para hacer un arrastre y limpieza de sales, en esta ocasion los 6L han sido la medida perfecta para que drenase agua suficiente como para que estos niveles de ec bajen, y ademas en el plato pudiera medirlos y darme el resultado que he puesto anteriormente. Todo comenzó porque en la Kritical GB sentí un bloqueo de pk y la planta empezó a comerse sus hojas para conseguir magnesio, si llego a verlo como una carencia de magnesio o calcio la hubiera cagado atrozmente!

Plant fully recovered. I am really surprised because of the buds development. I had to use some vegetation fertilizer for the leaves color.

With the new Mars Hydro FC 3000 hanging at full power, I added it 2 days ago and left it at 50% power then up to 75% this morning, and now at 100% after the nute change.... Very nice progress... I will defoilage heavy mid week once they are used to the new light and new nutes then leave it for the remainder.

Topped this plant and LST also. Still at ph 6.5 of rain water and spring water, however the leaves are crumbling and turning brown, I’ve move the light up more so it’s about 45cm away now. I’ve gel it a ml of baby bio and tomato plant feed per gallon of water, I’m unsure if this is to little nutrients for but I’d rather under feed than over feed. Please feel free to leave any advise; this is my first time growing so I need all the help I can get☺️💗

It's officially week 4 of veg. What a ride! These ladies DO NOT give up and neither did i. Second grow, it is a learning curve. With all the growth stunned, i am a bit impatient. BUT the good news is the smallest have starting growing again. Anyways... 👽👉19/9 New automation program for this week. (See pictures for app screenshots for automation and datalogger) Temps - 21night/29day RH% - 60RH night / 68RH day My plan is to decrease the humidity at night, to increase the vpd. The same goes for my light output and nutrients. Changing the variables gradually over time. 👽👉20/9 I topped two more plants. The growth is gradually getting better. They should be ready for their first real feed tomorrow. (Only top fed them last watering) 👽👉21/9 ** First real feed. -They reacted well to a last lose dose top feeding, so this time i will give them a full feed, but same low dose. -Programmed new automation based on VPD Graf (see pictures) Set to 1.0 VPD. // Inkbird app, i am adjusting the RH% to the temp in the tent. -Did some experimental LST on one of the smaller ones. Dont have a co2 meter, but have co2 bag. But it has not been added as a variable to the climate calculations. 👽👉22/9 The new automation program has proven efficient and working(for now). Now its interesting to see the plants adapting the constant VPD. 👽👉23/9 Did some more LST work to keep the tallest ladies at level. 👽👉24/9 Visiting the ladies and checking up on the lst work. Tucking in leaves, plotting my next move. *Water day. they shared 5 Liter, where the bigger ones got more. PH 6.4 - EC 1.52 (Last water was PH 6.4 - EC 1.37) 1.5ml/L Bio heaven+Bio fish. (Next time they will get 2ml/L) 👽👉25/9 Turned up the lights from 75% to 100%. Temps are about to rise higher. might as well let the ladies get used to it.

Room is still yellowing quite a bit prematurely. I’m going to feed once more and adjust ph back to 6-7. I’m starting to cut my RO water with filtered tap water at 1:5 ratio, to stabilize the ph a little more and to see if the tap water can help with deficiencies I’ve been seeing. I have heard that it’s not good to add calmag in mid flower and I really don’t want to mess with heavy metals that could affect the way the plant smokes. The powdery mildew has come back. It is only affecting the cheese, slurricane and black garlic #2. All three of these plants are in the same corner so it must be something I’m doing environmentally. That’s the coldest part of the tent so maybe the added fans are letting it get too cold. The small fan I added is probably unnecessary and I might move it to my veg tent. If the powdery mildew keeps getting worse, I’m just going to let it ride out and then wash the final product. I should have trained and topped these in veg a lot better but I got lazy and didn’t want to.

We finally moved them to the hydroponic set up. I’m controlling everything except the in line fan and the spider farmer fan with the 69 pro infinity (Witch I’m in love by the way) Watermelons are in the left, Coco Fresh on the right, Coco Fresh are going to be bigger plants for sure. Spider farmer G8600 / 16 inch / 50% I will be switching to their new G1000W in 2 weeks. I will be using Floraflex: V1 8 grams V2 8 grams For a 5 gallons bucket with 4 gallons of water / 650 PPM / 5.8 PH Im kind of fighting with the humidity, AC infinity T7 Cloud forge should arrive in a week in order to help me out because the 2 humidifiers im using are not doing to much. I’m very exited to see them wrong.

Week 8 Flower Flush flush flush 💦🚽💦🚽💦 It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke 👌💨 even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better. She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop ✂️ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing. A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

Wir sind jetzt in der Mitte der Blütephase und die AK-47 fängt ordentlich an, Muskeln zu zeigen. Die Trichombildung ist massiv und zieht sich schon weit über die Zuckerblätter – der typische AK-Geruch wird von Tag zu Tag intensiver! Ich habe gerade einen kompletten Wasserwechsel durchgeführt, damit die Lady für den Endspurt frische Nährstoffe (besonders Phosphor und Kalium) zur Verfügung hat. 💧 Wasserparameter (aktuell): • pH-Wert: 5,8 – 6,2 (wird stabilisiert, nachdem die Sonde etwas gezickt hat) • EC-Wert: 1,6 (Ich habe den Wert von 1,8 leicht gesenkt, da die Blattspitzen eine leichte Überdüngung anzeigten) • Wassertemperatur: 19°C – 21°C 🔍 Beobachtungen & Herausforderungen: Die Pflanze war letzte Woche etwas wählerisch. Ich habe bemerkt, dass der EC-Wert gestiegen ist, während der Wasserstand sank – ein klares Zeichen, dass die Nährlösung für ihren aktuellen Durst einen Tick zu stark war. Optisch steht sie super da: ein sattes, tiefes Grün und eine sehr vitale Blütenstruktur. Die ganz leichten "verbrannten Spitzen" an den Blättern nehme ich als Signal, den EC-Wert jetzt bei 1,6 zu halten. Das ist der "Sweet Spot", an dem sie am effizientesten arbeitet, ohne Salzstress zu bekommen. 🛠️ Was diese Woche gemacht wurde: • Reservoir-Wechsel: Komplett frische Nährlösung angesetzt. • Monitoring: Tägliche pH-Kontrolle (aktuell manuell, da der Monitor kalibriert werden muss). • LST/Pflege: Ein paar große Fächerblätter wurden strategisch entfernt, um die Lichtdurchlässigkeit zu den unteren Buds und die Luftzirkulation zu verbessern. Nächstes Ziel: Die Blüten beim Anschwellen beobachten und die Werte stabil halten!

4/8 - They are doing great. PPFD at 800. Debating if I want to do CO2 this grow, because I could easily get 1000 PPFD out of this light. That means adding a dehumidifier to keep a sealed environment, but don't think there's enough of a cost benefit. Might just add more far red at lights on and lights off to try and get a little more vegetative stretch before I switch over to 12/12. Clock is ticking. Mother-in-law shows up 6/15, and I'll want it chopped by then. 4/8 - on further calculation, I'm switching to flower today. Never switched this early before, but we'll see how it goes, eh? 4/9 - prepping for vacation. Bought new 10 gal Roughneck storage container, mixed new nute mix 2:1:2. EC 1.40 with 0.3 tap water. 11ml of pH down to get PH from 6.4 to 5.8. Ditching the auto fill. Too high risk for flooding without flare fittings. Don't trust cheap-ass quick connect push fittings. 4/10 - turned off "seedling vpd mode" which kept humidity artificially high. Turned on 2nd bank of LED lights, so system is pulling about 370W with lights on, still significantly dimmed down. Turned on light cooling circ fan, which is a sealed aluminum labyrinth tied to two 4"vents. Although, almost all the heat this lamp generates is from radiation, not thermal loss of the LEDs, so the heat sink is barely warm. Lights up to 16" over canopy to allow growth while on vacation. Ppfd at canopy 800. Room temp 81, humidity 73. Auto water time is 30 sec per pot.

I have had some troubles this week. I have lost quite a few fish (not sure why) I am also showing signs of light burn/nutrient deficiency. I had to put netting around the sides because they grew taller than they should have and started falling over from the weight. The buds are filling out quite well, some of the hairs are starting to turn orange. It wont be long before harvest.
