This is flushing week. It’s a long debated topic whether to flush organic or not, but according to Biobizz this is the way to go. Some amber trics have appeared already, so next week she will reach choppington town. It’s crazy to think about this is just half of the battle, the drying and curing must be done right too. I have high hopes for this strain and can’t wait to try the first sample!

Hi all. I finally decided to plant a little defoliation this week... a lot of buds are hidden under leaves that are difficult to develop. I think before the end of flowering they will receive enough light to become stronger and covered with trichomes.

The Gorilla Runtz harvest was phenomenal. The buds are incredibly dense and pungent, packing a serious punch. Its compact size meant nearly the entire plant was covered in frosty buds, making for an impressive yield.

More Fantastic Grow News! They have been still doing great and developing the flowers and buds - I am VERY happy with how everything has been turning out! When opening the tent you are immediately hit with the subtle smell of maturing, ripening ganja - Each flower has a mixture of white hairs, orange hairs and an incredible amount of frosty leaves and trichomes. I notice that my Cherry Gorilla x Sol Sonic #2 is sprouting the red hairs faster than the rest - I hope she can hold off until the rest of the girls are completely finished! The Cal-Mag seems to be working - I am noticing dark, dark green leaf color right next to the biggest buds - I am guessing that this is the Cal-Mag doing its thing. I see that the leaves that were damaged from the deficiency are slowly turning back, however I feel as it is this far along, the plants are most likely focusing on the flowers rather than the leaves - which seems to be what I wanted. The dark color next to the buds give me hope it was a good remedy. When touching each of the flowers, you are left with a VERY sticky, leftover goo than stays on your fingers. Each flower smells extremely distinct - which is somewhat unexpected. This just goes to show you the power of phenotypes! These seeds came from the same dispensary bag, and each one seems to be just a little different. You can especially see what I am talking about from the Macro shots I took this week - look at the descriptions for the full breakdown. Wish me luck! I am slowly approaching week 7 - 8 when I am going to be starting my flush process (I think?) Appreciate all the input, likes and follows!

This week the new growth of the plants transitioned from looking relatively healthy to droopy and yellowed. I wasn't sure what the issue was at first and thought it might be light stress. After more research, I determined that I had what looked very much like a zinc deficiency, which is almost always a symptom of over-watering, which is the most common mistake for new growers, i.e. "Me". I had assumed that adding a good amount of perlite to my soil and using smart pots would prevent me from running in to any drainage issues but I guess not. I was up to 1.5 liters per plant when I realized that it was too much. I also realized I was misreading my syringe which I use to mix nutrients, and that i had been giving only 1/10 of the liquid nutrients that I thought. I'm super embarrassed about the mistake but I'm going for full transparency here, so there it is. Course correction takes places after day 31.

Hello Diary, Purple Lemonade has reached the end of the fourth week of flowering, 7 weeks since the beginning of the vegetation. I can already tell that we are slowly approaching the end, from next week I will be painting it on a black background. Purple Lemonade looks beautiful. It has large flowers that have covered the branches that are now slightly bent due to the weight of the flowers. The flowers are very hard and sticky to the touch. The main cola is completely covered in flowers and trichomes, it brings a smile to my face. The smell is now very intense, when I open the grow box, the smell takes over the whole room. The leaves are still a healthy green color, it is obvious that the new nutrients Bio Grow and Bio Bloom Fertilizer are doing their job. The conditions on the Farm are good, the temperature is around 28 degrees while the humidity is below 50%. Watering is still almost every other day, they still need a lot of water. I continued to add CalMg and Bio Bloom Fertilizer with each watering. I'm super happy to see how Purple lemonade looks, she really responded to my efforts to give her the best conditions I can. Here's a quick overview of the past week. 06/09/2024 - Day 44. Watering. I prepared 9 liters of water, added CalMg and Bio Bloom Fertilizer and lowered the p.H. to 6.0. With that amount of water I watered all three plants on the "Farm". 08/09/2024 - Day 46. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as two days earlier. 10/09/2024 - Day 48. Watering. Same procedure. 11/09/2024 - Day 49. End of the 7th week from the beginning of the vegetation, or the fourth week of flowering. Photographing and measuring the height of the plants. Purple Lemonade - Day 49. - 63 cm. That's all from me for this week, see you soon and thank you all for the comments and compliments.

Week 6 of the 9lb hammer F2. She hasn't exploded like the gelato just yet. Been getting 10hours of light while they sleep in my closet so I can keep giving 16h of light to everybody else, as i only have 1 tent atm. Still hasn't shown any signs of sex, has been in 10hON/14hOFF for the last 5/6 days now i think, so hopefully in not long. Her siblings are also coming along nicely, did have a small issue with a little underwatering as you can see the bottom leaves yellowing from neglect, This strain clearly likes it slight more moist soil compared to the gelato i have in the same tent.

Tonight on growfessor theatre, 4x4 edition, 4 ladies get fed and defoliated! Green Crack, LSD and Mandarin dreams are in the home stretch, this is their last feeding before flushing. Do-si-dos will get another feeding next week and flush a week later. Thanks for stopping by growfessors, tune in next time for another episode of growfessor theatre! 👽🌳💚

Beginning of week.. They are starting to show pistils everywhere.. They both already showed preflower.. But you can really see more and more pistils popping out every day.. And the Mandarin Cookies is already stretching WAY too much lol.. This isn't gonna work out as I wanted it to.. Ugh.. This one Mandarin Cookies could easily fill this 2x4 tent by herself at this point.. Poor ETHOS Cookies is gonna be drowned out or deprived of light.. But this Mandarin Cookies is gonna produce more than enough by herself as well.. Even if she isn't a huge yeilder! The ETHOS Cookies is showing some hints of some possible early bag apeal?? Maybe?? The stems that connect the leaf to the main stem is showing some cool designs.. Usually they are just solid red or purple.. Or solid green or yellow.. This one is green with red stripes.. Not a deficiency because the plant is healthy. If there were any signs of issues then the coloring on the stem would be an issue.. In this case, it is genetics and usually is in my case.. I've always had 99% of my plants show the red/purple stems.. From autos to photos.. From ilgm to fastbuds.. They almost have all showed this "sunburn" type coloring on the stems that are exposed to the heavy lighting.. Usually nothing to worry about.. Now if you see other issues and that begins to pop up out of nowhere.. Then yes.. It would be a deficiency.. But this is why I love growing in coco.. Its quicker to fix issues than soil.. I can flush all day and still add my nutrients after without having to wait for the medium to dry out.. Hydroponics would be the easiest, I suppose.. Just change the reservoir lol.. Damn.. That was alot of nonsense lol.. Sorry I've been smokin my cheese harvest! Yum! Lol Mid week.. Ok so the Mandarin Cookies was stretching 2-3 inches daily! I went ahead and dropped the Mandarin Cookies off of the crate I still had her on.. Now she is on the ground.. The ETHOS Cookies is still up on 2 larger crates.. A good 10 inches from the ground maybe.. I vegged this Mandarin Cookies a little too long.. I bet one week earlier would have made a HUGE difference.. But whatever.. I am content woth the way things are going.. Runoff pH is still trippin on the Mandarin Cookies.. Usually 5.7.. It has spit out 5.5 once or twice but it seems to jump back up to 5.7 the next watering.. The ETHOS Cookies has been dialed back in.. Runoff is the same as it goes in.. But the ladies are both lookin healthy.. Slowly spittin out more and more pistils.. Within the next 5 days or so, there should be little clusters of pistils at each top.. I'm so excited to see what these girls do under the Optic SLIM 320H!!!.. Beast of a light! Bad ass genetics.. It doesn't get any better than that! Lol... End of week... I am seeing some leaf tips being burnt on the very top leaves (newest sprouts).. Which is understandable.. I have been really pushing these girls.. Really just wasting nutes.. But I am going to down the nutes a bit next week for sure.. Big changes will be made.. No more MYCO Plus.. No more FloraGro.. No more Armor Si (Silica).. Instead of 1400 - 1500 PPM, I think I want to get it down to 1000 - 1200 PPM. We are starting to dry out around here.. And I'm getting close to running out of rain water lol.. But filtering my tapwater should be ok.. Still got the power of the light at 50%... About 12 - 14 inches from the canopy.. For the most part lol.. About 750 μmols at the center and about 500 - 550 μmols at the far ends of the tent. Thinking I may go ahead and upgrade to a 6 inch exhaust system.. I like the Vivosun 6" fan (the black with red blades and adjustable speeds) along with the ducting and a carbon filter.. All for $79.. Not bad.. Anyways.. Next week we should see alot more pistils! On to the next!...

Pretty basic week. I transplanted the Green Tea plant from a Jiffy Pot to a 1 gallon fabric pot. The plant probably could have stayed in the Jiffy Pot for another week or so but some of my plants that were a little bigger when I transplanted them were packed with roots. I just figured I'd transplant a bit earlier to give my roots more space sooner.

As you can see the white powdery mold is starting to lose my thoughts were getting a HEPA filter into the room . 2) because this mold mostly lives on leaves what I did is I locked out the soil. This was a technique passed on by a legacy grower in my area.The way it was explained is by making the pH higher than seven the plant would no longer be able to receive nutrients through the soil and it would have to eat whatever nutrients are left in the leaves. This woukd change the pH of the leaves aswell to help kill the mold . Lastly I greatly increased my wind movement so that air would be continuously moving no matter what it was a little bit hard on the leave tips that burnt a little bit but at this point windburn on leaves is pretty irrelevant when you're looking at the whole picture. I don't think this would have worked with any other genetics but exotic seeds mostly because from what I've seen with them is a very high resistance to mold and I think that played a huge part of the process. Also having diablo nutrients monster wash, without that I do not think I would have won this battle
