A sad week, I found bud rot and had to take my plants out and do a big check and remove all dense underdeveloped growth. It will be a pretty big hit on the yield I guess but the most important thing is learning and that I did. The bud rot could spread due to my RH being 65/70 at nights and it used to be +80 before, + bad airflow. I got new fans in the tent and my dehumidifier was ordered already but its not in yet. On the other side, the plants are looking pretty damn good, they smell amazing and 3 of the 4 plants is getting a very dense nug structure.

Not much going on yet. Added some 3d printed supports to make sure they don't start flopping over. Not sure if it's the strain, or my idiocy, but these bastards are soooo leggy. Grr. Watering daily to 15% runoff with MegaCrop 2 part in RO at 0.6EC and 5.6pH. Found Mega Crop gives very stable pH on the right range without any pH up or down needed. Took one day off (3/18) watering to water with Silica Boost at 6ml/gal concentration pHed to 5.4. PPFD 300 at canopy for DLI of 20. PPFD was about 20 for first week while I was prepping and sanitizing the grow room, which might explain the leggyness. If they don't look better after topping, I might pull them and try a different strain. 3/20 - this grow is inspired by the techniques of Bruce Bugbee (PPFD, nutrition, EC monitoring, substrate, environment, etc) and the concept of VPD control, both of which served me very well in the past. The grow room has dual PID controls in my PLC regulating the temperature and humidity to lock in the VPD based on plant age. In later veg and flower, I had CO2 injection on a PID, but that ultimately failed because I couldn't get the humidity down as it got huge. Had too many vent cycles. This year, hope to source or kludge an in-line dehumidifier so I can keep the sealed chamber where it needs to be without wasting CO2. 3/22 no more vertical growth, thank god, leaves and roots are slowly catching up. Patience. EC to 0.7

Woche 6 – Die Apricot zeigt ihr wahres Potenzial 🍑✨ Diese Woche hat meine Apricot offiziell die Blütephase erreicht und ich könnte kaum zufriedener mit ihrer Entwicklung sein. Von Anfang an zeigte sie einen kräftigen Wuchs, doch jetzt beginnt sie langsam ihren eigenen Charakter zu entfalten. Die Pflanze hat eine wunderschöne Struktur entwickelt. Die Seitentriebe wachsen kräftig und bilden ein gleichmäßiges Dach aus potenziellen Budsites. Besonders gefällt mir die natürliche Verzweigung, die dafür sorgt, dass Licht nahezu jeden Bereich der Pflanze erreicht. Trotz des Outdoor-Lebens mit wechselhaftem Wetter zeigt die Apricot keinerlei Schwächen. Die Blätter präsentieren sich gesund und vital, das Wachstum bleibt konstant und die ersten Blütenansätze sind inzwischen deutlich sichtbar. Aktuell befindet sie sich mitten im Stretch und legt täglich sichtbar an Größe zu. Genau in dieser Phase entscheidet sich oft, wie beeindruckend die spätere Blütenstruktur ausfallen wird. Wenn sie diesen Weg weitergeht, könnte sie sich zu einer echten Schönheit mit zahlreichen dicken Colas entwickeln. Die Vorfreude auf die kommenden Wochen steigt von Tag zu Tag. Die Apricot wirkt momentan wie eine Pflanze, die gerade erst warm läuft und ihr volles Potenzial noch längst nicht ausgeschöpft hat. Die Bühne ist vorbereitet – jetzt beginnt die große Show. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Week 6 – The Apricot Starts To Shine 🍑✨ This week my Apricot officially entered the flowering stage, and I couldn't be happier with her progress so far. She has developed a beautiful structure with strong side branches and an even canopy full of promising bud sites. What stands out most is her natural branching pattern, allowing light to reach nearly every part of the plant. Despite being grown outdoors and facing changing weather conditions, she continues to look incredibly healthy and vigorous. The leaves are lush and vibrant, growth remains steady, and the first flower sites are now clearly forming. She is currently right in the middle of the flowering stretch and is gaining size every day. This stage often determines the final shape of the plant, and if she keeps growing like this, she has the potential to become an absolute beauty covered in large colas. The excitement for the upcoming weeks keeps growing. Right now, she looks like a plant that is only getting started and still has plenty of surprises left to reveal. The stage is set — now it's time for the main performance.

Day 34 this lady is running, I can see flowers getting bigger every day, smell started really really soon this time so I already had to add the Carbon Filter. I’d like to close the cycle in less then 80 days. It would be great First flowering fertilisation Ph 6.2 Ppm 631 Day 37 - 9 of flower 🌸 Started blooming fertilisation, I’m keep Giving all-in one from aptus, i think I lm substitute with super pk and I stop all in one. Ph 6.2 Ppm 731 As I’m growing an solito in a 9.2 lt pots with all mix nutrients I’m slowing down with all in one and just giving base feedings, I ll decide later if I should give super-pk for the next weeks Day 40, tomorrow will be feeding days. Sge’s going really well, resin is already showing up on flowers that are several as and colorfull, smell is already there 🤤 Tomorrow update with feedings parameters. Day 41 feeding day Aptus regulator 0,15ml/1 lt Aptus all in one 1,25ml/1lt Aptus Topbooster 0,3 ml Aptus enzym + 0,5 ml Calmag 0,3 ml /L Ph 6,18 Ppm 756 Let’s see

No estoy muy satisfecho con el cultivo. Aun habiendo realizado varias podas y defoliaciones todavía quedaban muchas ramas bajas y cogollos pequeños que han influido en el resultado final. En el próximo cultivo cambiaré la estrategia.

51 Days in flower have passed. This week i got myself an upgrade, new light the FC-E3000 and a 120x60 grow tent so i can grow some bigger and better medicine. I love the specs on the light, the price was right and so i have high expectations from looking at other peoples reviews of the light. We will see if im able to hit the jackpot with this! 🤠 The girls are looking great! Cheese left, Gorilla Girl right. the pictures and videos are self explanatory, its looking awesome!!! If you ever wondered where i stashed the Runtz and Bruce Banner; i took them out of the grow tent and just put them in the corner of my house without light only surviving off the light in the shadow from the sun, they have been neglected for a while but they still went on super strong, they started flowering 3 weeks ago so i had to put them into reveg so they look a little odd now but its all good. it was either that or i would have to throw them in the trash, and im not gonna waste some nice strains like that. Im impressed how they have survived with almost no light and water. ---1st time growing with FLO - Florian Living Organics.--- They claim that there is no need to pH when watering and that their living fertilizer is the only thing that i will need throughout the whole grow so i only need to mix with soil and just water with plain water. If this stuff works then it can simplify my future grows ALOT! Happy growing. 😎

The last of my skunk regular that germinated. No sign of pre flowers however this is looking like a female based on the speed of her growth being very slow.

Gigabrain Auto – Anesia Seeds Woche 6 gesamt | Blüte Woche 1 Die Gigabrain Auto ist jetzt ebenfalls sauber in die Blüte gestartet und zeigt eine etwas andere, aber sehr interessante Entwicklung. Der Stretch ist vorhanden, aber nicht ganz so extrem – dafür wirkt sie kompakter und buschiger mit vielen stabilen Seitentrieben. Die ersten Pistillen sind klar sichtbar und die Budsites formen sich schön entlang der Triebe. Besonders auffällig ist die gleichmäßige Verteilung – viele potenzielle Colas, die später ordentlich Masse bringen können. Die Pflanze steht insgesamt sehr gesund da: kräftiges Grün, stabile Struktur und gute Verzweigung. Sie wirkt etwas gedrungener als die Gorilla Girl, aber genau das könnte später für richtig dichte Buds sorgen. Licht-Update: Auch hier wurde das Licht von 60W auf 120W erhöht, was direkt Wirkung zeigt. Die Pflanze nimmt die zusätzliche Energie gut auf und reagiert mit stärkerem Wachstum und aktiver Budbildung. Die LED kann später noch auf bis zu 180W gesteigert werden, aktuell läuft sie aber sehr stabil im optimalen Bereich. Geruch ist aktuell noch zurückhaltend, aber leicht würzig-süß wahrnehmbar. Noch eher im Hintergrund, aber die Richtung ist klar – das wird in den nächsten Wochen deutlich intensiver. Setup / Notes: 120W aktuell → sichtbarer Wachstumsschub Kompakter Wuchs mit vielen Budsites Stretch moderat, gut kontrollierbar Sehr gesunde Gesamtentwicklung Keine Auffälligkeiten oder Mängel Fazit Woche 6: Starker und sauberer Start in die Blüte. Die Gigabrain setzt mehr auf kompakte Power statt extremen Stretch – wenn die Buds so dicht werden wie es aussieht, kann das richtig böse enden 🔥 --- Wenn du willst, kann ich dir später beide (Gorilla Girl & Gigabrain) als Vergleich für Woche 7 schreiben – kommt auf GD immer richtig gut 😏

I am so proud of her, with the high humidity and extra rainfall she pushed through. I noticed her swell continued in the last week so it’s safe to say she is in good shape.

11 Sep 2021 Today starts week 2 of the flowering stage and week 10 of life for my lovely Ladies. I did some massive defoliation and pruning the other day and all three of my babies are looking amazing afterwards!! Absolutely beautiful! I have a short video log (I’m not cool enough to call it a vlog), and a few pictures to upload to start this week. I must admit that I really thought I may have overdone the defoliation and pruning, but so far it’s turning out exactly as I had hoped. There are budlets forming at every node, and all three plants are looking healthy and strong. I decided to look at my feed chart and to count backwards from the date that they should be ready for harvest and to arrange their feeding schedule. I made a plan where I can provide a good steady level of nutrients in the proper stage of growth, and schedule time for the flush to be done by the time harvest time arrives. So today I started the Mid-Bloom stage 4 of my Flora-Trio 6 part feeding chart. I’m still giving half the nutrient level until I know there are no issues, then I will adjust to full strength if necessary. At 50% strength each plant was given: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2.4ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml mixed into a gallon of water. The initial pH for all three gallons was 6.3. I wanted to adjust them up, so I added 1.2ml of pH UP to each gallon which adjusted them as follows: C1 - 6.7, and C2/C3 were both adjusted to 6.6. I still don’t have a replacement TDS meter, so only pH was measured in the runoff. Runoff pH was as follows: C1 - 5.9, C2 - 6.1, and C3 - 5.8. The runoff levels of C1 and C3 are still lower than id like, but still manageable. As I mentioned several times above; my plants are looking great, and I plan to keep growing them as they are until this method needs to be adjusted or changed. I’m just letting them grow wild. Granted, I’m trying my best for them to grow the way I want, but I’m not using a support net at all (yet). I say (yet), because once the buds start to bulk up, they may need support to stand upright. If that day comes, I’ll use the net. Time will tell. The temperature in the tent was 82F, and the humidity was 45%. So far my trio is growing beautifully! Enjoy everyone! I am!! 14 Sep 2021 I ended up using only about half of each gallon the other day, so today I gave the rest of each gallon to the perspective plant it belonged to. None of the plants had any real runoff from the amount given today, so I’ll probably start feeding every two days instead of every 3-4. It happens with each grow. The trick is to identify how much they need, and how often. It seems to change with every plant. So as I stated above; each plant received about 1/2 gallon of water and nutrients that was prepared a few days ago. Each plant received CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2.4ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. The pH going in was: C1 - 6.7, C2/C3 - 6.6. As I said above, there wasn’t enough runoff to measure, so I don’t have runoff data today. The temperature in the tent was 84F, and humidity was 57%. I measured each plant and adjusted the lights according to their growth. C1 is now 23 inches tall, C2/C3 are both 23.5 inches tall. I adjusted the lights to all be 15 inches over each plant. Light spill off is still awesome for all three plants, and each one of my lovely ladies is looking absolutely amazing! 15 Sep 2021 My plants are doing AWESOME!! I looked in on them a little earlier today and just sat in my floor and looked at them. They are doing amazing! Absolutely beautiful!! I have used a support (scrog) net for each of my grows so far; till this one. At least so far that is. I may end up putting it in to support the branches once they are loaded with bud, but for right now I have just let them grow as they naturally want too. Of course there are some exceptions to that last statement. At the end of my first week of flower I decided to defoliate and prune them down. I did so much defoliation and pruning that I thought I may have hurt my girls, but nope! They have responded even better than I had hoped. I trimmed off all of the lowest branches that weren’t already long enough to get full light exposure, as well as most of the small intermediate branches growing off of more established branches. The result… every node growing on every branch is developing buds! All of them are getting full light exposure, and ventilation from the fans inside the grow room. These three are looking better than any of my previous plants thus far. I am very pleased with how they’re doing! I’m feeding again today because what I gave them yesterday just didn’t seem sufficient. None of them had any runoff to measure; so I’m going to make sure that they do as well as possible! I’m sticking with the mid-bloom stage 4 of my Flora-Trio 6 part feeding chart at 50% of recommended levels. My plants are doing great at 50% strength so far, so if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it! No deficiencies have been seen, so I’ll keep on keeping on that. Each plant received a mixture of a gallon of water with the following nutrients: CALiMAGic 2ml, FloraMicro 2.4ml, FloraGro 2ml, FloraBloom 4.2ml, Floralicious Plus 1ml, and Liquid KoolBloom 1ml. C1 and C2 didn’t take the whole gallon, but about 3/4 of it. C3 took the whole gallon, but that may be because it is in a bigger pot. The initial pH of each was: C1 - 6.4, C2 - 6.5, and C3 - 6.3. I added pH UP to each as follows: C1 - 2ml, which adjusted to a final pH of 6.7. C2 - 1ml, which adjusted to 6.9, and C3 - 1.5ml, which adjusted to 6.6. I still haven’t gotten another TDS meter, so no TDS data to report. Runoff for all three plants was lower than I expected. C1 was 5.8, and C2/C3 were 5.7. I really expected them to be near 6.2 or thereabouts, but nope. I’m going to have to keep an eye on that. The humidity today was 65%, which is pretty good. The temperature in the tent was 84F. It was over 90F outside today, so hot outside = hot in the tent. 🤷‍♂️ They’re still looking great! Happy growing everyone!
