They really recovered from the rot...
Roots look quite white again and all seem to almost double in size each day
Watertemp still very high with 26°C but they seem to like it
Transplanted them to the big tank at the end of the week
Plants are going into flower. I took night time pics so you can see them sleep. They are a all looking great. This girl is shorter at the moment at 18 inches. Very nice branching on all three plants. I should defoleate and remove some of the bottom branches now.
2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl is 21 cm high.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video. She has grown from 21 cm to 25 cm in 23 hours.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-15. KL 10.00. New pics and video. The girl is 30 cm high and has grown 9 cm the last 4 days.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2017-09-16. Kl 10.00. She is growing like crazy and needs to get defoliated every morning. I added 2 new videos and gave her 2 liters of water and nutes.

This week, I'm pretty happy for now. The addition of Cal-mag and the increase in light are going great. There is also a slight defoliation. The canopy is very present, the heads are quite similar in height, I am very happy even if I think there will be a few weeks more than what Zamnesia has announced for this variety...
no problems at all, as usual if things are dialed in but just as long as it is.
i did not change water yet, i fill it up every morning until water reaches the plastic pot.
The water is ph corrected 5.5-6.5 somewhere around that with the same nutes but in lower concentration so it adds up to 1000ppm
One of the last days of 2x 16 colas and 2x 4 colas mainlining 4 month growing. Jamaican Dream and Green crack potted together and the experiment was successful. Three Blue kings was stressed in vegetative period by iron excess and overwatering. This is the reason that lower buds did not developed better. Amherst Sour diesel have one of the biggest buds I have ever seen. Jamaican Dream should be developed smaller, like Green Crack, but 100% sativa genetics showed it's greatness. Green Crack was growing like Jamaican Dream in vegetative period, but in flowering period its growing was slowly and now it has become very thick and full of buds.
My growing box is very cheap but I tried maximum of my budget. 600w HPS is one of the greatest lamp for indoor growing. At flowering stage I have increased 600w to Super Lumens on my digital ballast for maximum yield.
Main mistake is that I have used very cheap and primitive pots and soil was not enough good too.
In these days I'll cut diesel and kings tops, because they are almost ready and lower buds need 7-12 more days to be ready for harvest.
They look very healthy and the trichomes are looking to become great! Hope some good big buds time will tell. Its my first grow, any tip or advice is welcome!
The plants are looking good and are drinking around 0.5l a day of ph6.0 water and are now getting BioCanna Veg, around 3 drops from a tablespoon to sart with.
Helaas niet veel te vertellen, de tent blijft gewoon op juiste temperatuur, de ventilator blaast en de lamp is een kanon op 40%, elke week zal ik deze opvoeren tot ze in week 5 100% is.
Beginning of week..
I raised the lights a little.. They are at 50% power at 18" (roughly) from the plants. The ladies are getting from 420 to 500 PPFD. Went ahead and fed them some extra FloraMicro this week.. I'm guessing they are just very hungry girls.. And I'm thinking the pH in the rootzone issue is not clearing up at all.. BUT.. It seems like no matter what pH I water them with.. The runoff ALWAYS comes out at 5.8 or 5.9 with the Mandarin Cookies and 5.8 or 5.7 with the ETHOS Cookies.. So if you want to reuse your coco coir.. Make sure to remove ALL the roots. The girls dont look too bad at all.. And that's why I'm guessing they just needed more nutes in the mix.. We shall see how this week goes!
Mid week..
They are looking alot better! Mandarin Cookies is exploding woth growth.. ETHOS Cookies is growing slow but she is growing for sure.. I think I may need to remove a node or 2 on the ETHOS Cookies.. I could just leave it.. But the very top 2 are covering alot of tops.. I could make some clones from it.. Hmm.. All-in-all.. I'm happy with how these girls are growing for now tho.. This rootzone issue isnt going away.. But I think I found a way to make it work out.. I've been watering a little differently.. Here is a bit of an example:
Day 1: Feed at 6.5
Day 3: Water at 6.4
Day 5: Feed at 6.3
Day 7: Water at 6.2
Day 9: Feed at 6.5
Day 11: Water at 6.4
Day 13: Feed at 6.3
Day 15: Water at 6.2
Etc...
The runoff is staying above 5.5 each time.. But as I lower the pH, the runoff pH lowers as well (obviously).. So I think watering this way has helped keep these gorgeous ladies happy.. And theyare also very hungry.. I may have to start watering one plant every other day.. Water plant 1 tomo.. Water plant 2 the next day.. Then plant 1 the next day and then plant 2 the next day etc... 1 reason I want to start doing it that way is because I think the ETHOS Cookies isn't needing as much nutes as the Mandarin Cookies.. But they are looking great. Very happy and so are they! The heat has been insane lately.. So at the hottest part of the day I try to just turn the light down to 25% for 4 hours or so.. I hate having to do that.. But it's all I can do for now.. Or maybe change the light/dark hours.. Blah.. Whatever, they are happy!
End of week..
I supercropped 2 branches.. They pretty much healed up and are already back to normal.. Like it didnt bring them down any lower at all lol.. It straightened back up and its as if nothing happened.. Just a big ass (MOOSE) knuckle lol.. But I stopped using the Kushie Kush and was just using the normal Gen Hydro FloraBloom in the mix. Will be upping the FloraGro next week! Wow.. Such hungry ladies! It's been so long since I've grown a bigger photo period.. I forgot how much they can take!.. On to the next!...
Se acerca el fin para esta hermosa LCC, los tricomas están casi en el punto justo y la cenecencia se logró con éxito, ahora solo esperar un poco más y estaremos cosechando con casi 76 días desde que salió a la superficie 🤓
28 dienos!!! Prasideda žydėjimas;) Mergaitė auga - šią savaitę naudojau LST, nes ji pradėjo greitai kilti :) Taigi, viskas atrodo gana gražiai:) Pamatysime, kaip ji keisis :) Bet manau, kad ji bus graži, skani, stipri:) Sėkmės visiems.
Heeeere we go! Sorry for the late update!
This is when I start the flush! I believe the plants are pretty much ready at this point and doing this will just improve the final product!
Doing this took me a good chunk of time, mostly because I didn't know exactly how much of water I was going to need (it was a loooot 😫) and how hard/tiring it was to pH it as well. In the end my calculations were off, as I needed far more water than what I had (lol) so I didn't manage to do a full flush... but I still managed to lower the amount of salts and residues to a "decent" level (around 850 to 1500 ppm). I also used flawless finish so I suppose than even when I didn't use enough water that solution alone was enough to help!
Besides that the rest of the week was quite calm and relaxing.
Thanks everyone for reading! 😍
This auto ghost of is at day 21 and she has been growing like crazy since she broke the surface. She has the potential to be a real work of art if I can keep her happy. I upped the maxigro to .5 tsp per gallon and started them on a little armor si so they can build some strong branches. Still running them on 24 hour light and 24 hour irrigation. They are going to stay under the blurple lights for a few more weeks until I can get them in the big room under the quantum boards. I'm hoping they will flower around 4 weeks but my autos seem to enjoy staying in veg so we will see what happens.
Coming on well. Turing into monsters... I need a bigger light. Day 45 got second dose of bio pk 5-8. I have a bad feeling i will have to do 3 separate harvest days hahaha
