week 10

After trimming everything under the net she has focused on sprouting more upwards towards the light, stems are nice and thick and budsites are nice and even so will grow evenly when budding!

Bad weather for they first day outside, I hope they will be able to grow, weather forecast are positive for the next days, let's cross the finger.. 🤞😁

As of day 21, the Blackberry Kush is growing sizable despite the very deformed growth. After really double checking every parameter last week, I feel comfortable saying it is a genetic issue. Thank you to those who commented and responded to the grow question over the past weeks, it really helps! I want to see how this plant grows and what it yields despite the issue, it should be interesting to see what kind of buds it can end up making. I will perform some LST soon as the plant is growing taller even after topping. I with the twisted leaves and wonky growth, it's actually letting plenty of light penetrate to the lower/center portions of the plant which may have it's own positive outcomes (what can I say, I'm an optimist!) Happy growing everyone, and stay safe! 👍🌱 Day 22: started LST to promote lateral growth. Day 24: even though the twisted leaf growth is keeping the foliage from getting very dense, I am happy that this plant is still a good size and is definitely not stunted! If anything it is acting like a defoliated plant, letting plenty of light penetrate to the lower growth tips and center of the plant. Day 25: earliest signs of flowering. Day 26: 5x per day watering, 15 second duration.

Week 2- All 4 Cream Cookies are looking good. Very similar looking seeedings at this point. I harvested the larger plants that were in last weeks diary and moved all seedlings under my 315w CMH fixture. The fixture is 24" above the plants. I'm going to keep all 4 indoors in my tent for another week, then move 2 to the outdoor garden. I'd like to see 2-3 nodes before transplanting. I also have 3 gallon self-watering pots ready for transplanting the 2 that are staying in the tent. I've never used self-watering pots before, but 'The Rev' (from Skunk magazine and True Living Organics) swears by them. They don't actually water themselves, I'll still have to add water manually. But there is a reservoir at the bottom for the roots to be able to feed off of. Supposedly, once the root network is established to the bottom I'll be able to add water to the reservoir only. I'm following the Fox Farm feeding schedule, but at 1/2 strength. So this week is Big Bloom only. I also added CalMag and some Recharge. I'm starting another diary in a few minutes for the other plants I have going on. Look for it soon! 😉

These girls grew up really fast. My order of Recharge came in and I introduced that on day 10. I think I did a gram of Recharge mixed into 1L of PH'd water and then that was split between the two plants. On day 12 I decided that because the FCxFS was already starting to lean to one side I would go ahead and just LST it over. I'd never done LST before and ended up using way too much wire and probably did more damage than good. On day 13 I removed the hack job I did and instead used the wire for supporting the main stem. This is what I should have done from the start. Lesson learned.

Ende Woche 10 der Strain von Fastbuds ist echt einer der besten den ich je hatte der Wachstum die Potenz und die Robustheit der Pflanzen sind einfach super 💪💪💪💪💪

Left Plant Buds are getting bigger and bigger Right plants not so much yet

As of day 21, the Blackberry plant is doing well! It is growing vigorously and will need to be controlled as it increases in size. The FIM has already helped a little, but I have started some LST with the Atlas plant trainer to start making the canopy wide and flat. A few of the newest leaves have the very start of yellowing in their tips, so I think this plant is maxing out at 1.1-1.2 EC. I am going to keep it around 1ec for the rest of vegitative growth, as EC can drift upwards in the reservoir very slightly while the airstone is running. Runoff, PH, and other parameters are right where I want them! I have a new gallon of Calimagic coming, so I am switching back to it this week in preparation for early flowering. Thanks for reading, happy growing, and stay safe! 👍🌱 Day 24: LST continues, the plant is growing quickly and is very lush. Outside of removing a few low growth tips that will never develop, I am going to try to leave as many leaves as possible. If this maxes out my humidity I will start taking a few lower leaves, and those that are too tightly squeezes in the center of the plant. Considering the plant's size as of day 24, I am hoping the flowering stretch isn't too strong or I will have to really work to contain this plant! Day 25: earliest signs of flowering. Day 26: runoff quantities were edging towards being too low as the plant has more foliage to transpire through, so watering adjusted to 5x per day, 15 second intervals. This is an increase from 60 seconds per day of watering to 75, and should accommodate the needs of the plant as it continues to grow.

Como era de esperar, la weddingcake duplica su tamaño en la segunda semana de floración. La skywalker sigue el mismo camino. Ambas presentando ya las primeras preflores, indicando que se avecina una excelente floración

Day 28-35 (May 28th - June 4th) (Day 29) My rooted blackberry #3 clone looks like it’s finally starting to reveg. It’s starting to stretch it’s internodes but no new growth yet. Nearly all 9 are pushing roots now. What a waste of time taking clones in flower! Won’t ever do that again. Grapefruit #1 has a twin! I thought it was just an odd formation on the taproot but two seedlings are pushing out. I wonder if it will be genetically identical. It’s definitely slower growing than the other one so who knows. I will try to train them apart when the time comes. (Day 30) I think the EC/PPMs are too high on nearly every plant including my veggies. The promix is actually really hot for a “blank” medium coming in at 1800. Adding compost and amendments to that is probably raising it to 2500+ at least. It should self balance the more I water it but I know for a fact I can get better growth by leaching the soil around each plant. Next time I use promix for anything, I’m going to prewash it like coco coir and add a dash of oyster shell flour for pH and calcium. (Day 32) Purple tuna is now big enough to start lst on now. I’m going to wait a little while for the slurricanes. (Day 33) One of the grapefruits has a twin that actually popped... I’m going to leave it and see how she turns out (Day 35) I’m going to prune off the lower leaves on each plant. I was going to lst Purple tuna but it’s so vigorous I may as well just top/mainline it. Autoflowers are looking established and should be taking off this week. I wonder if this will give them enough time to veg into decent sized plants before they flower. I won’t be topping or even doing lst. My goal is 22 big spear colas from each plant. I’m going to get all my rooted clones into 1.7 gallon pots over the next week or so.

Crecimiento espectacular! Siguen explotando en resina y cálices. Da gusto abrir el armario cada día y observar el desarrollo que tienen. Se les realizó una defoliación a medianos de semana. Ahora ya regamos solo con agua, controlando el pH para dejarlo a 6.2 y conseguir un ph residual de 6.5

Day 40-47 (May 31st- June 7th) (Day 41) For the first time in this grow these plants are looking halfway decent. Smell is ramping up too. I finally feel optimistic about this grow. (Day 42) The two jacks and the chunky blueberry are showing early signs of N/Mg deficiencies. I know it’s late in flower but since I’m experimenting with this tent, I’m going to give them one final feeding of nature’s pride 2-5-5.5 (tbsp) along with a teaspoon of oyster shell flour and some rock dust. Everything else I’m going to give a teaspoon of rock dust and oyster shell. There is no way these amendments will fully break down in time to be used by the plant but they could at least use the pH buffering and trace amounts of minerals after their recent leach. Everything but the BAOGC is covered in pistils that don’t really match their bud size. I hope they fill into their pistils because an over abundance of hairs drops the bag appeal like crazy. Over the last few cycles, indoor and outdoor, I’ve definitely learned that different strains and phenotypes mature at different times. Sometimes really radically too. (Day 43) None of the plants are fading at all but they’re still looking good. Black garlic I know should be fading but remains dark green and toxed. I popped a developing seed out of the main bud too. I wonder if that blueberry herm branch pollinated it at all. It seems like plants don’t really like that Destiny dark matter soil by itself. I find it works better mixed with coco or promix 1:1. (Day 44) I’m starting to think I might be mixing up the TWOG and BAOGC. BAOGC took forever to fatten up last round and the 2 phenos I suspected already look done. I was thrown off by the similar terps. The beauty phenos are definitely TWOG (Day 45) God these Jack Herer’s smell good. Nothing but fruity funk. Almost like a vanilla or blueberry yogurt. I would say this stuff has the most overpowering smell in the tent now. I’ve noticed they’re starting to foxtail like crazy. Blueberry#1 too. I’m watering a final low strength feeding of seaweed extract on everything. (Day 47) Everything really fattened up this week. Even at the beginning of the week I was saying I didn’t think they would fill out. Jack Herer and BAOGC specifically made some big gains and nearly doubled their density and still have quite a way to go on them too! The smell has ramped up and finally, everything is looking happy and healthy.

Hello everyone Hopefully everyone is well and healthy. Another week passed by and we have the RUNTZ from Zamnesia growing slowly but surely. Stretching is slow but I think she still hasn't reached the bottom off the pot. Once that happens I am hoping for a bigger stretch. Then move her to a bigger pot. Weather isn't with us this week here in the UK 🇬🇧 not a lot off sun coming true mostly cloudy 🌥️ but my lux meter that I use still shows 65000 lux and more in clouds. So should be ok for seedling. Same feed as last week. Happy Growing

In the forest at the back. Added PK this week , I think they have 3 weeks left Change reservoir Monday’s

Empieza la semana 5. Un dia de estos, cuando tenga tiempo, pondre la malla para SCROG, espero no ir demasiado tarde. Todas las plantas se ven bastante bien excepto la más pequeña, que sufrió de quemaduras en los primeros días de vida. Aun así, voy a optar por dejarla crecer para ver que puede salir de ahi. Un saludo a todos y buenos humos!!

They are looking no different to 2 weeks ago and I’ve no idea what is going on... can someone please tell me if I’m in the right direction or what is going on... confused right now. Also they are supposed to be ready in a week according to seed stockers but was wondering if they will take longer due to the weather and the greenhouse situation. They are starting to smell a bit more but not much.. had mixed reviews people saying the pots are too small or maybe they just need little longer

Another good week of steady grow. Still little worried by the yellowing this early in flowering. But I'll guess I have to see it through. The smell is getting little stronger. Early scents are pine, and musky smells.
