Week 6 of flowering 10/23/24 Changed nutrients to fit week 6 Buds are getting even bigger and thicker. Defoliated a little. Noticed a PH of 4.8 in runoff, same as the late stage of flower in my previous grow. After lowering feed EC, CalMag on max strength, flushing with 0.8ec nutes for 3 days in a row, nothing changed and PH stayed the same. Read in a forum thread about constant low PH in the rootzone when growing in coco. Got great info about CEC, water, nutrients and little chemistry from a detailed explanation. (https://www.icmag.com/threads/recurring-problem-with-low-ph-in-coco.338385/page-2#post-10843765) Flushed plants with tap water + calmag, PH 6.5. Used 120L total for 4 plants in 2 days. 1st day: flushed after lights on, did not water until 2 hours before lights off and flushed again. Runoff PH went up a little, but not to the correct range. 2nd day: flushed after lights on and checked runoff EC + PH, of each plant. Fortunately, PH got corrected to 5.8, and I returned to automatic watering 4 times a day (with 10%-20% runoff). Thoughts: In the last grow, I thought I had a problem because of salts buildup in the media with constantly low PH in late flower. I didn't fully correct the problem till chop day. Same problem here in the same stage of flower without the salt buildup. After reading every forum I could find about the problem, I understood that my bloom nutes were the main problem because of their chemical composition. The coco ability to exchange ions lead to the low PH in the rootzone. It got worse quickly because I did not use any tap water with the feedings, so the PH could swing easily and drastically without resistance. After I looked online for the T.A. feeding chart, I saw they used TriPart Grow till week 7 of flower, the Nitrogen type they are using will up the PH. CocoForCannabis chart that I'm using, has not enough nitrogen to combat the bloom nutes PH down effect in flower. It gets even worse with RO water because there are no minerals that can resist PH down. Now I'm using 30% tap water with rest RO water, T.A. TriPart feeding chart with calmag and silica. Hopefully I have corrected the problem for the rest of the grow. It wasn't easy, because there were lots of variables that worsened the problem quickly. Now I'm checking runoff PH and EC daily. Update on next week :)

Will be trying more zamnesia f1s out minimal phenos what u want great stable genetics would recommend thanks zamnesia for sending me these to grow 👍

Week 7 begins for Mandarin dreams and Divine storm. These ladies are looking happy and healthy, bulking up, putting on weight and glistening with frost. This grow and grow light is sponsored by Mars-Hydro, thank you Kaoritracy for hooking me up with the TSW2000. Thanks for stopping by growfessors, tune in next week for another episode of growfessor theatre! 👽🌳💚

Week has been good. I'm not sure about the ppm and salt around roots, they are a little brown. Wounder if I should flush them and start again with nutrient? And see some of the last picture, it's pretty thigth between the leaf and buds, should I but some of the leaf? Ppm 1400-1600 Temp 22 to 31 Temp in water 20-26 Humidity 50-60%

Week 9 and everything is going well. Even though the weather hasn't been very sunny and we've mostly had cloudy days and plenty of rain, our beauty keeps growing. The trichomes have started turning cloudy, and we can already see some amber ones appearing. We're going to wait until about 50% of them are amber before harvesting. We picked a small bud to dry and test at this stage so we can compare the effect, and then we'll try it again when the plant reaches around 50% amber trichomes. The finish line is getting closer! 🌱💚

Day 37 06/08/24 Tuesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today with calmag only. Pre flower stretch initiated, pre flower female sex pistils forming 😍 She is shown in video next to her stunted sister, she is in with my other diary 2L GreenHouse Run. Day 39 08/08/24 Thursday Feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with Plagron PK13-14. Showing her pre stretch 😍 Day 41 10/08/24 Saturday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with calmag. 400ml with run off now. Day 42 11/08/24 Sunday End of week De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 today again with calmag. 400ml with little run off this time Pistils on pistils now 😁 Starting to see the beginning of bud formations 💚

total end end dry weight was 2453g very nice strain to grow recommend to anyone dried them for 9 days 68fh and 50-53rh

Decided to add all the photos i have currently the timeline of my grow is kinda off im sorry :( im in week 6 at the moment!

Change of lights as of middle of last week and a Change of schedule to fit with mine, 18-6 off at 13:00 back on 19:00. With temps in the UK atm I've been pretty lucky with my loft grow 🤞 the thinking was if there on through the night it'll keep temps up and the leccy bill down abit 😂 just plodding along still couple more weeks before the magic starts 🤙

Beginning of week 5. Very happy with what is happening, no problems whatsoever. Buds are fattening up. Northern light is like on steroids and will become one massive bud, gorillas and dance world look more sativa dominant. Tons of trichomes, very sticky. Baby autogorilla is still shy so I topped her :) for the rest of the plants in veg I will create another journal.

This week was really concentrating on finding bud sites and giving them full light. If you couldn’t tuck it...it had to go ✂️ Ready to feed phosphorus and potassium once she shows white hairs.

This plant during her life have passed trough many issues but she overcame them all and she express an incredible vigor. This week I just added some straw on the ground and I have watered with a solution of EM that I made, also a light solution of molassa have been added to the foliage OMG is not even possible to make a diary longer than 30 weeks here lol 555555

980gr wet Bud with stick and 370gr wet trim . 195gr dry Bud without stick. 100gr of little and fluffy bud. update soon ✌️

The ladies got new shoes today. The went from 3 gal to 5g. In this soil mix is based with nectar of the gods #4 soil with added mykos, azos, recharge, roots organics terp tea mix, potassium silicate, fresh worm castings.

Topped all plants

Her roots are wonderfully healthy, I look forward to maturing her and seeing her at her best

I hung dried for three days and then bagged them up in brown paper bags for two days due to the low temps and humidity before jaring them.
