16 Jul 2021 I lost a day somehow, and I’m wondering how? For some reason I thought it was the 15th, but obviously it isn’t. Somehow, I have allowed 4 days to go by between feeding her. I’m so surprised she’s still doing as well as she is because my care for her and her tent mate has been sorry! It just speaks to their resilience, and not my skills as a grower, but I hope to do better. Today I’m sticking to the ripening feed stage that I started on the 12th. Today she got a gallon of water chilled to 50F, with CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 2.8ml, FloraBloom 4.5ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Dry KoolBloom .5 tsp. The initial pH was 6.2, and normally would be great, but her runoff pH would be very low, so I added pH UP 2ml which adjusted the pH to 6.4. The difference between pH UP and DOWN is ridiculous! The same amount of the other would have lowered the amount by about 2 full points, but the UP only adjusted .2 😳. Anyway, the final pH was 6.4, and TDS going in was 784 ppm. Runoff pH was still low at 5.5, and TDS runoff was 2513 ppm. We’re still in a heat wave right now, so the tent temperature was 84F, and humidity was 60%. I hope to keep this feeding stage up for a couple of weeks, then I’m going to start flushing her to prepare for harvest. I’m thinking harvest should be in about a month. 18 Jul 2021 Feeding time again! I’m continuing with the ripening feed stage today, and will be till the flush in a couple of weeks. Her buds are fattening up quite nicely, but I have sad news to report. It looks as though one of the branches we broke a while ago and taped up isn’t going to make it. Some of it is looking ok, but the leaves at the top of the cola are dying, and others around it are looking poor as well. Luckily, the buds below the break still look well. I was running out of time for the lights tonight to prune it off. I’ll do it tomorrow and go ahead and harvest what is already there. It’s closer to being ready than not. Today she received a gallon of chilled water (57.4F) with CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 2.8ml, FloraBloom 4.5ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Dry KoolBloom .5 tsp. The initial pH was 6.2, but I wanted it a little higher. So I added 1ml of pH UP, which adjusted it to pH 6.5. The TDS going in was 839 ppm. The runoff pH was 5.8, and the TDS runoff was 2307 ppm. The tent was still warm at 84F, and humidity was 47%. My Blue Ox is looking wonderful, and I’m hoping she continues to do well. 20 Jul 2021 Today ends week 14 of this plants life. According to Rare Dankness Seeds, the Blue Ox has a 60-70 day flowering time. So, according to them, the people who produced the seeds for this lovely plant, she should be ready for harvest on or about July 24th, which is her 60 day mark, or August 3rd, the 70 day mark. So that is either next week or the week after. I’m going to go ahead and start flushing her out from the next feeding on till she’s ready for harvest. Her buds are nice and fat, and she smells lovely! Today I finished this week with the ripening phase on the feed chart and gave her the following: CALiMAGic 5ml, FloraMicro 2.8ml, FloraBloom 4.5ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Dry KoolBloom .5 tsp all mixed into a gallon of water chilled to 58.7F. The initial pH was 6.6 and was not adjusted. The TDS going in was 771 ppm. Runoff pH was 5.9, and TDS runoff was 2364 ppm. Our heat wave is still raging, so the temperature in the tent was 88F, and humidity was 49%.

Hey mates, I'm happy with my first grow. I'm learning so much. Day 29: I'm looking like a hypochondriac, but for the plants, all I see I think it's a disease. Now I'm seem the older leaves getting yellowing, and gotting some brown/dark spots and saw little flies walking at the soil, I've googled it and can be fungus gnats, what I'm supposed to do? About the pH: I never measured the pH cause I'm using the pH Perfect products of Advanced Nutrients and they say you dont know care about this. But I've started to use mineral water, to see if have some difference. Obvious the mineral water is more puriest and clear than the tap water. Lets see. Day 30: I've did the defoliation on all seeds, but on Seed 2 and 3 I've just removed dead or yellow/brown leaves, and at the Seed 1 I've removed the most of fan leaves, leaving two or three at max. Day 34: I'm happy with these girls, Seed 3 I've did not LST and she have 49cm, Seed 2 I've did a soft LST and she have 45cm and 3 main colas, Seed 3 I've did a more little harder LST and she has only 33cm and I think has 4 or 5 main colas, I really dont know the exact number cause one of them is a little lower than the 4 others.

All our ladies are looking incredible so far, this is our week 4 of veg and we are giving these ladies a detox from their nutrients and in in exactly a week we will be upping their dosage back up and streching them further using our Scrog Net. Side note: we have Hindu Kush indoors and outdoors as well so it will be interesting to compare the end result. Happy growing everyone

Spider mites have taken over my plant. I've been taking leaves off and lost bud sites because of this issue. I'm broke til tomorrow so I can't buy any products. At this point I'm thinking of just throwing the plant out and starting fresh. Yes it's has come along way but damn the spider mites are worse than bed bugs at this point

Things are happening!!!! The large container plant is starting to take on shape and put the gf some nice side branches. 5gal fabric is stretching but not a lot of sideways growth yet. They seem to have loved all the spring rain.. But the recent sun has really sprung them into act

🗓️ Week 12 – Flower Week 8 (MAC n Cheese only) Stage: Late Flower MAC n Cheese is now fully into late bloom and continues to impress: 🌿 Development: • Buds are dense, frosty, and maturing evenly across the canopy • No significant leaf discoloration • Aroma profile is becoming increasingly intense – leaning towards creamy and earthy notes 💧 Feeding & EC: • Input EC: 1.65–2.0 • pH: 6.3 • Current runoff EC: 2.3 → Still well-balanced, no visible signs of overfeeding despite the elevated drain values Flush status: No flushing yet – plants are still feeding actively → Final flush with Flawless Finish planned in ~1 week ✅ Summary: MAC n Cheese remains healthy and consistent. Structure is solid, frost levels are high, and everything looks on track for the final push. Late-stage nutrient uptake is still strong without stress indicators – ideal conditions heading into the home stretch.

LST is going very nice and #2 has taken the topping well. As you can see, the auto flowers aren’t the only plants I have. I have a strawberry cough that will be flowering soon, meaning that the strawberry pie and GSC will be finished under 12 hours of light.

WEEK 5 (03/28/2021 - 04/03/2021) Day 38: 03/28/2021 Plants had their first feeding today. It’s been about 3 or 4 weeks giving them tap water only. With my ppm dropping in the soil, I thought now would be a good time. Leaving out the Cal-Mag this feeding. Nutrient mix: 651ppm, 6.0 pH, 71℉ FF Big Bloom: 5ml/gallon (⅓ strength) = 15ml/3 gallons FF Grow Big: 5ml/gallon (⅓ strength) = 15ml/3 gallons ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 960ppm/309ppm, pH 6.9 JB#2 - 1290ppm/639ppm, pH 6.8 AP#1 - 1400ppm/749ppm, pH 6.8 AP#2 - 1190ppm/539ppm, pH 6.8 GC#1 - 1190ppm/539ppm, pH 7.0 GC#2 - 1350ppm/699ppm, pH 6.8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 41: 03/31/2021 Plants watered around 5:30-6:00 p.m. ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 955ppm/653ppm, pH 6.8 JB#2 - 1070ppm/768ppm, pH 7.0 AP#1 - 1470ppm/1168ppm, pH 6.8 AP#2 - 1390ppm/1088ppm, pH 6.8 GC#1 - 1110ppm/808ppm, pH 7.0 GC#2 - 1160ppm/858ppm, pH 6.9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 44: 04/03/2021 Plants watered between 5:30-6:30 p.m. Botanicare Hydroguard was used at half-strength to supplement the roots and as a preventative against rot. Tap water: 247ppm, pH 9.4, 70℉ Botanicare Hydroguard: 1ml/gallon = 3ml/3 gallons pH Down: 11.5ml Mixture: pH 5.6, 285ppm (+43ppm from pH solution) ppm/ppm = runoff/soil JB#1 - 858ppm/573ppm, pH 6.8 JB#2 - 857ppm/572ppm, pH 6.8 AP#1 - 984ppm/699ppm, pH 6.8 AP#2 - 1030ppm/745ppm, pH 6.9 GC#1 - 880ppm/595ppm, pH 7.0 GC#2 - 932ppm/647ppm, pH 6.9 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This week has been much more pleasant than the weeks prior. I believe my plants are finally getting acclimated to the medium and recovering from transplant shock. New growth is looking much healthier. Just as a preventative measure, I picked up some Botanicare Hydroguard to use in an attempt to supplement the roots and bring the pH of the soil down to where I want it. Personally, the pH remains just a tad too high for my liking this week. I would like it more in the range of 5.7-6.5 but I'll give it a week or so to see the reaction to the Hydroguard. I've continued with more LST on all but the Glookies #2. On this plant I simply did a topping. It was a risk, considering the plants isn't vibrantly healthy, but I need to maintain it's height. I also did a second topping to the American Pie #1. As can be observed from the photos, not all of the plants were shaped the same way. I got creative with the fabric pots and I decided to LST a few plants a little bit differently just to see which technique/style I liked the most. So far, I am digging the way the Jelly Bananen #1/#2 and American Pie #2 are shaping up. They are going to have a beautiful, wide canopy when they head into flower. I'm considering transplanting into 5 gallon fabric pots within the next week or two so I can flip them to flower two weeks later. My intuition is telling me this has been a pretty lengthy vegetative stage, thus far. I'm expecting all of my plants to double in size during the flowering stage, which should be anywhere between 65-70 days long. I made sure to select strains with similar flowering times (60-70 days). Thanks for stopping by this week. Please feel free to leave a comment or any tips/advice! Until next week! 🙏

I'm happy with how these OG's are growing after I topped them last week. I've just turnt to 12/12 and super cropped the main heads that were getting abit tall. I'm working against height on this grow so I need to keep them low to allow for the stretch!

Algae is an asshole. Thought things were going really well... and then found a bit of algae in the rockwool.... No biggie I figure. Wrong. Left it one night, and today (Sunday) open the jar to find algae in all the roots. Not cool. Well, I needed to swap the nutrients anyway, and was going to do a major bonsai pruning... so why not also wash everything, plant included, in mild hydrogen peroxide solution? Sure, THAT's fun. Made the decision to swap Hydroguard for H2O2 as well, since the water is room temp (21-22 C) and the H2O2 supposedly helps prevent algae.... and keeps away root rot even in higher solution temperatures. Oh, and H2O2 is also seemingly a buffer... making getting the pH right in that small jar strange - needed WAY more pH down than without the hydrogen peroxide. Fingers crossed that the major life disturbances will help manage the algae and not just put the nails in the coffin.

Switched to my 5 gal pots now, dumped 6L of water into each plant to get the pH back down still waiting for them to dry out a little before the next watering which should be less so next week will have water amounts Height is for the holy punch again. Power flower is still around 1.5"

Plant has been developing nicely over the past 6 weeks. Fimming was not very successful, so I continued with super cropping the plant. She was switched to a 12/12 schedule a week ago and was fed flower nutes for the first time this week. She is definitely stretching, so I installed another scrod at 50 cm to distribute the canopy even further and add some support. She has been receiving ph balanced RO water and is at this stage continuously via drippers. Roots are al over the tank again, which has however proven as an advantage in the past.

Ende der sechsten Woche: Die Pflanzen wurden heute ein letztes mal entlaubt. Bis zur Ernte bleibts jetzt so - außer irgendwelche Blätter geben von alleine den Geist auf. Der Geruch ist inzwischen wirklich heftig! Der Aktivkohlefilter leistet aber gute Arbeit, daher gehts klar. Nach wie vor werden die Buds dicker und dicker. Sie sehen etwas weit für ihr Alter aus, aber ich schiebs mal aufs Adlite… Die Blüten sitzen VOLL mit Trichomen - bin wirklich gespannt, wie das Endprodukt wird.

Compact tops, short knots and swollen calyces—perfect indica-dominant pattern. Curled and swollen pistils with no signs of burning, resin in rapid densification visible even without lens. Healthy fan leaves, high internal ventilation and high density centralized light. The lateral expansion of the lower site buds begins thanks to the indirect under-canopy irradiation. Next defoliation scheduled to release light on the mid-low nodes. The nutritional regime continues AN + organic top dress, stable pH monitoring.

Very optimal setup for everything so far. you can really tell the first sprout apart right now because of the second set coming in. Can’t wait to start using nutrients soon!

7/1/25 Very classic Gelato Shaped nugs. Very very strong gassy nose to her. Large chunky buds. Have no complaints besides struggling with mass leaf death on this plant for some reason and can't seem to figure out why or what to do to fix it. maybe its a genetic sensitive to the heat or the humidity
