Nothing much to report. The smell is growing more distinctive. Lots of pistils are coming out. It's an exciting time but much less work than veg was. I changed the nutrients on Thursday and just topped up with more water and pH down this morning (Monday).

Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance. 9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn. She continues to have a great deep green color that is beautifully contrasted by the snow white trichomes piling up on them! Her height has not really increased but she is extremely bushy with tight node spacing which will necessitate plucking some leaves to keep the light penetrating into her canopy. 9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Five of flower in a couple of days and she'll be past the half-way point with the most exciting weeks yet to come! I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and Top Dressed her with 2 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1 tbsp/g Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, 1/2 cup Down To Earth Bio-Fish, 1/3 cup Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and 2 cups of Worm Castings. I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ and let her enjoy her meal! 😜 9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 0.75g watering. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~

Using a 50/50 mix of Purple Cow IndiCanja living soil and Fox Farms Ocean Forest, just ph'd water using lemon juice to bring down my tapwater and mammoth P microbes. I brew teas with Nature's living soil auto flower line. Seeds in the soil 4/17...I plant directly into the soil without presoaking or letting a taproot grow, I've had 100% success rate so far so I'll keep doing it I think

Merry Christmas y’all! Week 4 is behind Topped both Mimosa and Cookies, they took it like champs! They exploded immediately with side grow. Such a pleasure to watch them strive. Increased EC from under 1 to 1.5 and they are super happy with it. Probably will climb to 2 to see how they like it. Getting closer to preflower would completely flush till runout is even with water poured in and would start adding flowering boosters. Starting to like coco for the full control and immediate reaction to my actions and the chance to fix my screwups. A bit of a hustle to water every day tho :) Best wishes to you and your close ones! Peace.

Day 72, 21st of November 2020: Great. Typical Indica no much strech after topping no problem with her at all. May be she need a bit less nitrogen. Great work from RQS and I hope she will turrn to be purple a bit in the end. Nice smell tho..... Buds are coming and getting fat looking great. Fertilization is the same every 2nd day with the mix and the ratio above.... All LST has been removed as the plant remains the same so no need to keep her in "chains". The lamp is on 11.30 min and off 12.30 min. Last week was 15 min longer light cycle.... So every week 15 min shorter light cycle until the 5th week. So far -30 min. It switches on at 6 am and off at 17.30 pm.

Notes to follow shortly, just trying to get all the pictures up and organized !!! So on this week , the buds are fully recovered, just about ready to be chopped down ! There are some brown tips and discoloration in the leaves but that was all on purpose . I overly increased the air movement, as a result some of the leaves got some wind burn . Not an issue it will just add to the magic of the smoke . ***************************************** My White Powdery Mold solution: 1) spray Diablo nutrients Monster Wash. 2) Add a certified HEPA filter to your grow area. 3) Increase airflow, even if the plant is getting alot of wind , at this point, the positive greatly outweighs the negative. 4) PRAY 🙏 lol even if your not religious! 5) Cut off all nutrients, do this just in case you do have to do a cut down quickly that at least at the very least what is good will be white burning and flush properly. 6) Raise the PH of your soil ( via water that is above 7.0ph) I believe I got very lucky on this one just due to my ability to recognize and diagnose problems. I was not done alone it was done with the advice of mentors the years of listening the amazing nutrients I use. Last but very not least the incredible genetics of exotic seeds. Without: Diablo nutrients + Exotic seeds I would have been in a way worse situation. If you ever struggle with white powdery mold or if you need someone who has some experience in this feel free to hit me up via message anytime.

Welcome to my Lemon Orange by GREEN HOUSE SEEDS.. 1st set of nodes were removed with 1 fingered leafs they are energy sappers. Weeks 2-3 Days 9-21 Plant pushing along really fast really nice growers. She's been the one that's taken to the cold temperatures/ low RH the best. She's the biggest. And I'm a wk ahead. But' these past 2 weeks. I FLMING It and moved it into a 7L pot. And then when I felt I had enough shoots I then topped the Fliming just kept throwing out shoots, so after you see 4 very close you usually then top the tops and will be left with tight intersnodea usually resulting in an X shape if grow out. As it just keeps growing up. It has a real nice hight as she stands. The next week I tackle and defoliation her and will attempt to shape her in some fashion. But, I find. GHS strains when topped they rarely need shopping as its takes a natural shape.. but, I do plan t defoliation and LST her. Enzymes, pure Zym & Alga Grow have been used. Currently she sits in a 7L pot. She'll be moved to an 11l and then I'll decide what way to take her. Ppm is kept low as the soil is nutrient rich Royal mix. So? I only started adding small amounts of ALGA GROW as it takes a few days for the organic process to work. So adding in on wk 2 was what I did. Enzymes and Sugar Royal was also used. Along with a foliar spray of Vita Race as she looked she needed an iron kick. Looks like Dolomite lime is taken a bit longer. But, with such rapid growth. This plant is only showing slight signs of cal. The others are growing at a normal rate. And the slow but more effective method of slow release calcium over time looks to be doing well. I still use UltraPure Epsom Salt. Its the best source of mag/sulphur 250ppm feeds (that's tap included) with soil aim for 6.3-6.8 ph. Mine is 6.7. Alga feeds were just once a wk. 300ppm (tap included) ph doesn't need checking its organic so usually this nutrient (alga grow) gives 4.5ph, but? It does not need adjusting nor does any organic nutrient from plago when using soil. Week 1/2 40-42.5 750ppfd Week 3DLI 43.5-45 800 ppfd. . 17hrs this is and last 30mins is set at 15% to mimic sunset. Really drops light stress. And have noticed big drop in leaf dropping and much easier plant growth. Helps I've a top lux meter. Money well spent. DLI is so important and I'm hoping to show this with 730nm during pre fower with my fems. Fems Super lemon Haxe (Green House Seeds) NL5 MIST NEV HAZE LEMON ORANGE...........

Much appreciation to all those who stopped by. Drop a like so I can visit your diaries. Either way? I appreciate the support.

D99/FD73 - Think the cookies has to be well past done now...Very deep purple on the buds but want as much of the lower stuff to mature as I lost so much of this plant to rot! 😭Thankfully, won some more seeds and I HAVE requested this again and I WILL go with it again as it smells and looks so amazing. I just know I have to be a crapton more careful with the environmentals now. Plus, now have all the preventatives in place (Bigger air flow, Sulfur, Potassium Bicarbonate, TricorrP5, etc.). May invest in a couple of supplemntal Royal Blue bars for veg and 1st 10 days of flower to keep them low but thats for next time, not for now. Have moved to Dragon Force in the tank as I want this all chopped by next week to start next run (Dont know if going to go Cream Caramel or Cookies Kush for the shortness - or maybe some Ice Cool as never run a diesel strain before!!!). Apart from that, Happy growing all!!! 💪
