👉The plant was 11" tall. it probably would have been 12 or more if not FIM'd. It almost doubled in its overall size and total vegetation. The FIM has all the secondary branches poking out from under the large fan leaves. I do a little tucking to help them soak up the rays. I may not have FIM'd low enough or something because the leaves that were the outside of the growth node I snipped have gotten big. They just look like they have no tips. I think I ended up with the desired FIM goal of 4 new growth tips that will be cola's. 👉I will assist the branches get maximum access to light by rotating the pot frequently, I will also either support or direct them with bamboo steaks that I will attach to the metal spikes that are attached to the hoop ground the base of the pot. Its just the top of a tomato cage turned upside down with the top hoop around the base of the pot. It fits it snugly and doesn't slip. This allows me to attach the support steaks to the outside of the pot instead of inside in the media. I didn't like having the plant inside a cage or with sticks in the way when its small. It allows me easy access to the plant, and an easy way to add the support when the plant needs it as it get bigger. 👉I switched to week 4 nutrients this week and will probably be a week behind the timeline of the nutrient chart from GH because the plant had a slow start. The pH is always targeted to 5.9, the EC for a batch is 1.54. I have learned enough in the short time Im growing to understand what each nutrient week batch can do for the plant and am fairly confident I can judge the plants growing stage to match it. The 4th week is called transition and I believe thats accurate for my plant. it hasn't declared as of today, but I am anticipating that this coming week some time. 👉The runoff has been very consistent and I only added the low EC rinse of 1.5 liter one time. I always immediately follow a low ec feeding with a regular batch of nutrient. The last two days the run-off volume has started to lessen and the EC staying only 20EC above the inflow. Ive been averaging .75l for total run-off volume following a 1.5l fertigation. Tonight's run-off was .5l and 1.74EC. The lower run-off is due to the plant having more roots and being able to drink more of the moisture. when the run-off drops below 20% of the inflow volume I will increase the total volume in 1/4l increments.

Sorry for the delay was in a wedding this weekend came home and been trimmin like a dog the past few days and didnt have time to do the update but I'll do another one before tuesday to get back on track. As of Friday sept 6 its day 46. In the video the plants from back left to right are .. Gelato-> Cream Cookies -> Gelato Middle row from left to right are Lemon A.K 1 -> 6 Shooter-> Lemon A.K Front is Tester 5 -> Lemon A.K -> Tester 26

Overall, I would definitely grow this strain again and probably will to see if I can do better a second time around.

Day 8 - Decided to put em in a diy dwc hydro setup till oxypots arrive.... initially was planning on soil pots and the roots are coming out the sides of the jiffy pots... so, 2L ice cream container, mix up 6.2 ph 500 ppm solution, cut a few jiffy sized holes .... blow bubbles in the water afew times a day.... lol Using abit of old Dutch Master Gold One Grow atm.... and i'll look at using some Nutrified elements grow, Crystalic, rock nitro, dutch master gold one grow/flower.... :) ice cream containers worked out perfect for jiffy... ....perfect for the seedling stage.... baby dwc for baby seedlings.... also gave me a chance to test out dwc....... i'll build this as i go... going to be a interesting grow for me.... 😎

Day 14 - Clay balls arrived, all looks good.... 😎 **the rust and damage on the first leaves is nothing to worry about, the ice cream container water level dropped below the root level, fixed it, but was cool to learn how fast hyrdo dmg can occur.... 👍 Day 17 - Lookin good... vid.... 👍😎👊

Smells and tastes awesome. The 3 week veg + 1 gal pots resulted in small yield. Otherwise great first try.

Welcome back once again to my DWC tutorial for beginners like Me. As this grow is drawing to an end I decided that this week I'll run back thru the topics I previously discussed for a bit of revision . Firstly I'll mention the plants progress. The Blue cheese auto is almost ready to pick , The calyxes are swelling and the trichomes are mostly clouded now with a few amber. I will let her run thru until monday the 9th before starting the flushing process with some flawless finish. This go for aprox 2 days and then I'll just run her on plain water until the end of week 7 Unless She's ready before then She's Drinking nutes still and I've dosed her up with the last of the liquid guano concentrate . Now for some revision of what we have already discussed . *Week 1* I showed how to make some bubble buckets with full instructions and pictures *Week 2 *Was all about water chemistry and that Cannabis prefers to be in a range from 5.5 - 6.5 when growing in hydroponics *Week 3* Was about the importance of keeping your tds and ph meters calibrated and working properly *Week 4* All about nutrient mixing and how to prepare a nutrient solution *Week 5* was all about how the plant contracted rust fungus and how over the coarse of just one week and the use of sulfur I overcame the issue and the plant won *Week 6* Was the weekly care guide for new growers Basically explaining the care you must provide from day to day to keep the plant healthy *Week 7* Was all about the optimum environment and conditions your plants will need to thrive We discussed the use of fans etc to keep the grow area cool etc *Week 8* Pests and diseases that can attack your plants we discuss the ways to combat this *Week 9* No tutorial just a full plant update with pics *Week 10* was about nutrient problems and deficiencies how to read what your plants are telling you and how to either prevent or fix any problems *Week 11* was about the plants trichomes and how to tell when the optimum harvest times by watching their development. Ideally you want them Clouded with a few amber . but this will differ from user to user and from strain to strain. *Week 12* was a revision of the previous weeks and next week will be the final plant pics before harvest . Thanks heaps to those who have been following this diary so far and I hope I have managed to help someone along the way

Hello nice people! This week number 6 went pretty good... Colas are building up and bringing out gorgeous colours as you can see in the pictures, purple mixed with pink and orange makes this plant the most beautiful I ever grown. The smell started very softly and it had a kind of pine arome, sublime. I've started giving her some Bloombastic and will keep doing so for the whole week. Stretching seems over and she kept a quite compact size, at 62 centimeters. That's all lads, I cannot wait to update the next weeks of this marvelous plant. Ah, I also just harvested and rated my other diary, come and have a look if you have done it yet! Stay tuned and stay high peeps!

hello guys..its bin a long week but my girls are here at week 5,,week 5 will be the last final week of veg an hopefully the results will be good as they look healthy right know...its my first time doing everything what am doing here and i have learn allot,,,GG4 is a stable strain just don't top lower then 5 sprouts you will get a slow growth...with the HESI NUTRIENTS,,, I AM FEEDING EVERY 2 OR 3 DAY,,,and i am still going with NO BURN...the only stress they pass was HEAT in the first 3 weeks of veg,TOPPING and LST....lets see what week 5 brings guys..as i always say feel free to ask anything about my grow anytime..😏🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪😎😎😎

The plant is doin very well, the colas are all getting bigger and the resin production is huge. I'm near the harvest so within few days I'll give her the last nutrients ans the next week I'm gonna flush her. I'm very happy about this plant, she takes nutes very well and give zero problem.
