Had a great week. ILGM has always been a strong grower for me. I've grown a few different strains from ILGM and they always grow very well. She went from 8 inches to 16 inches this week. I topped her about 3-4 days ago. She recovered from the topping very well and has new growth so she is doing as well as I could want. No problems to talk about this week 😀. Onto week 5.

Day 91 she’s huge and starting to bulk up. Her green color has returned once I got the ph issue under control I wasn’t sure if it was going to return. She was very sensitive to the water quality. I’m excited to Watch her bulk up she’s a slow finisher for sure. But you can’t rush perfection.

Wow she jumped 3" inches, being this small it's a huge accomplishment for her 👏. Looks like she'll be running for the sky as well. I'm interested to see the difference of a strain with high CBD as well.

The ladies light schedule was changed to 12/12 on Oct.30!❤️ The girls were doing great about 1 week after their big defoliation and SCROG being put in, I decided to flip to flower. I had been tucking and bending and had achieved about 80-90% canopy coverage, the last bit should fill in this week as they begin to stretch. During the 1st week of flower transition, I continued to tuck and bend where I could, trying to maintain an even canopy of tops, as well as fill in as many of the squares, as evenly as I can. It becomes a morning and night routine, I check on my humidifier, say good morning, and tuck away for about 5 minutes or so, it doesn’t take much at this point. Once the first week of stretch is through, I stop tucking branches and allow the tops to continue to grow upwards. I find that by using a SCROG method, there isn’t really a whole lot to do…I don’t defoliate until week 3, so it’s just feeding every 3-4 days and filling my humidifier! When I water is when I like to get under the canopy and check the stems and leaves for anything that shouldn’t be… and typically once a week after watering I’ll wipe down the tent and sanitize any surface I can. There is no reason to get lazy, that’s how you get Pests, Mold, and PM. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊❤️

She’s the biggest out of all plants! She started a day earlier than the other fastbud plants but is growing twice as fast too! Seriously a beast! 💯 looking forward to seeing what she blooms like!

It's been a busy week. I have got some acoustic ducting. WARNING... Acoustic ducting has Fibre glass in it and is a MAJOR IRRITATENT to both skin and eyes and should be done in a well ventilated area with suitable protection. So, I have also switched from pure batmix to a 50/50 split with a good compost. I have done this as I'm not 100% happy with the level of water retention in the batmix, I'm finding it to be too much and I do not want to run into any issues. I would rather the soil drys out then I know exactly when to water. I have also increased the HPS to 400w (from 250w) it is very difficult to give plants too much light. I am spraying the tent whenever I can, with warm(ish) water to increase the humidity for a short while. I do have 1 plant that seems to be slightly stunted but I'm not worried just yet. I will be looking into fiming and LST probably next week to make sure they have a good base. I have also had to transplant the plants into another pot as the roots are growing like crazy at the moment. I also purchased a dimmer plug for the fan, as I don't need it to be on full all the time (it's a 6 inch fan with duel speed but thats far too much for what is needed now. Other than that all is good

Fast Buds Run ! Light at 75% intensity, will start increasing light intensity slowly by the end of the week. 17/04/24 - 4L RO Water with nutes per plant. 20/04/24 - 4L RO Water wit nutes per plant. Notes - 16/04/24 - Blueberry Auto was bent a little bit too much the day before. Checked grow tent on the 16th and found that the plant was broken and hanging on a thread. Couple of days later and the plant looks like its recovering well. 19/04/24 - Used some LST clips to try and even out the canopy as much as i can. 20/04/24 - Will be on holiday the next few days so no pictures will be available next week until 24/04/24

Hi growmies. Well here we have it. Week 12 for these hardy ladies. They have coped with a very low growing temp around 16°c-20°c due to high cost of heating the room! , and only lost some yield for it. They have been pushing g some very sticky frost out for the past few weeks and while trying to wet trim them , have clogged my trimmers a few times. They are so resinous and smell so sweet like the berries in their name suggests. The samples I have used and the doner lady that gave me around 2.5 oz of smokable herbs while waiting for these gils have been enjoyable bit clearly needed the extra weeks to be as potent as these are. A dedicated 11 week+ flowering for their best I think. They are in various stages of harvest arthritis moment with the #2 being ready for her cure now she has dried. She has produced a fairly good 74g of sweet smelling and very crumbly/tacky bud. A great start with the #3 and half of plant # 4 already joining the drying party today. Hope the pics do it justice but the harvest report is not there yet !. watch this space.......

Week 5 flower : upped the a&b to 2.5ml litre and steered the pk at 1.2ml per litre Blue cheese : they have completely outgrown the sunset sherbet . I’ve raised the light as the buds at the back of the tent were literally 1” away it didn’t do much harm although the leaves on them buds started to curl a little so I thought best to raise it now before it causes any stress . I’m still watering everyday to run off . I removed a few fan leaves but I am considering doing a bigger defoliation in a few days as the fan leaves have taken over . They are really starting to smell very sweet and filling out .I was worried about these seeds as I have grown Buddha blue cheese about 10 years ago and now they have changed the name to blueberry cheese and I was told they will be different from 10 years ago . So far I don’t think so as they look the same and smell the same at this point I can’t see any difference which I’m happy about as I haven’t had any good blue cheese for many many years .although they smell the filter is definitely controlling the smell outside the tent . Sunset sherbet : although it hasn’t grow very big it’s very frosty and starting to smell . I will carry on the pk for another 3-7 days and will start the flush about 6 1/2 weeks in for 2 weeks with plain water I will also defoliate about in a few days

Week 10: Mold Warfare & Rainy Woes Update: 28.07.2025 | Day 79 Tough news first: Constant rain, humidity never drops below 60% - full-blown mold weather. Yesterday spotted first mold outbreaks. Cut immediately: 1 budsite on Forbidden Runtz, 2 on Green Crack. Damage contained for now thanks to eagle-eyed inspection. Daily mold patrols intensified. Strain Status in the Rain: Forbidden Runtz - Foxtailing worsens (humidity culprit?) - Trichomes mostly cloudy - 1 week to harvest target - Considering partial harvest: Biggest buds first, smaller ones risk mold - Beautiful purple hues emerging (ironically makes mold spotting harder) - Smell remains fantastic Green Crack - Fully sugarcoated but mold hit her hardest - Yield estimate: ~50g if no more mold - Trichomes: Cloudy but zero amber - needs 7+ days - Critical need: Airflow around thickest buds Bruce Banner - No mold yet (thank you sativa genes!) - Buds still swelling daily - stay vigilant - Resin production finally ramping up - Pistils showing vibrant colors - Mild aroma developing - Timeline: Minimum 2 more weeks Survival Protocol: - Daily inspections: Flashlight checks inside every bud - Immediate surgery: Sterilized scissors ready 24/7 - Yellow leaf purge: Remove wilted leaves instantly (mold incubators) Hoping your skies are sunnier than ours, Catch y'all next week.

So... it happened Because of the lack of space and poor light I decided to defoliate them a bit.. No water the whole week, as the soil was still quite humid

She took off like a rocket. This week she’s definitely growing day by day. I bought a cctv to monitor my plants while I’m not at home. She loves the nutrients I’m giving her. I’ll probably grow her for about 1.5 feet in height and flip her until she can cover the entire 2x2 tent. We’ll see in the next weeks

It was a longer road until here. With all the reading I did I still made rookie mistakes. To much nutrients and to much light stunt my plant and created some deficiencies ( CaMg). Hopefully I will do ok from now on.... Lifted the light at 3 feet on 100% power and decreased the PPM’s to 600. Hopefully that will help and I did not create to much damage. Wish me luck. I invested a lot of time and money on this grow but the experience is not there yet. I’m ok with what it is, I’ve learned a lot from this grow.
