Removed nearly all big fan leafs to get maximum of light penetration to the lower buds and more airflow to prevent mold. Should have weared gloves because it was a sticky mess :D getting more and more smell. I think i will start filling up the bucket only with clear water for one or two more weeks to flush. Think its harvest time soon. Eventually i will swap the whole solution to clear water coming week. ——————— Nahezu alle großen Blätter entfernt, um den unteren buds so viel Licht wie möglich zu geben. Hätte Handschuhe tragen sollen war auf jeden Fall ne klebrige Sauerei :D Stinkt jetzt langsam auch ordentlich die Pflanze. Denke ich werde die nächsten Wochen nur noch mit klarem Wasser ohne Nährstoffe auffüllen um ein bisschen zu spülen. Denke in ein bis zwei Wochen kann geerntet werden. Eventuell tausche ich auch die ganze Nährlösung gegen klares Wasser aus im Laufe der Woche.

Week 3: Goodbye Lazy, Hello Mainlining & Tent Issues! Another week in the books! Since my last log on September 20th, things escalated pretty quickly. We officially ditched the strictly "lazy" mindset, made some major training decisions, and even had to deal with an unexpected tent emergency. Here is the daily breakdown of Week 3: September 21st: The EC Component Benchmark I spent Day 1 of Week 3 doing some lab work for optimal nutrients. I took the time to measure and log the exact EC increase contributed by each individual nutrient component. Going forward, this will allow me to dial in custom nutrient ratios much more precisely rather than blindly following stock formulas. You can find the exact readings at the bottom of this days report. September 22nd: Water Top-Up & The Light Leak Emergency Noticeable uptake! I topped up each bucket with 300 ml of remineralized RO water to counteract a dropping EC level. A falling EC is always music to my ears because it means the girls are actively drinking and consuming nutrients faster than water. Later that night, I noticed light leaking through a small puncture in the tent wall and the zipper also seems to have problems. What leaks out can also leak in! To prevent catastrophic light pollution during the future flowering stage (and avoid any hermie risks down the line), the main outer cover of the grow tent had to be replaced immediately. Doing a full tent skin replacement solo with only one working hand was completely out of the question, so I called in some much-appreciated reinforcement. Emergency handled! September 23rd: Mainlining Decision & Top-Feeder Strategy Since I already had help on standby, I figured it was time to drop the "Lazy Grow" label (or at least rename it to Not-So-Lazy). Decision made: we are mainlining! To kick things off, I pruned away the side branches on nodes 1 and 2 to stop energy wastage and force all growth momentum directly upward toward the top node. I also turned off the DWC system's top-feeders on both buckets. The root networks are now fully submerged in the main reservoir and thriving. Moving forward, I’ll only run the top-feeders while I’m actively working on the plants, keeping it strictly airstone-only for the rest of the time. September 24th: The Big Chop (Topping & Defoliation) I’m generally not a fan of stressing young plants too heavily in one go, so I waited until today to top them above the 4th node. I also completely cleaned out all growth at the 1st and 2nd nodes. Thanks to the massive fan leaves, those lower sections were sitting completely in the dark anyway and if a leaf can't catch light for photosynthesis, it’s just stealing plant energy and has to go! September 25th: Smooth Cruising Just a minor pH adjustment today, bringing it back down from 5.8 to 5.5. Plants are taking the topping and defoliation like total champs. September 26th: Drop in EC & Reservoir Strategy The EC dipped below 1.3 mS/cm today. Rather than just topping off the tanks with fresh nutes and guessing which specific minerals were consumed, I’m planning a full reservoir change out. Fresh start, clean water, and precise nutrient ratios for the next stage. Note: Today, Sept 27th, is dedicated to editing footage and putting together this week's log! I also bought a new Grow-Cam … but I haven't figured out how to get the files from SD-card to Computer. there are some format issues and that's a problem for tomorrow Hempel. Not planned but we did a complete reservoir change to a fresh EC 1.5 mS solution because it feels like the plants are hungry. Now that the mainlining structure is set and the plants are recovering seamlessly, let's see how fast those new main mains explode in Week 4! As promised, the Lab Day: I prepared my Base water (CaO + MgO) and landed at a picture-perfect 0.272, basically a carbon copy of the original calibration. Then Vega A went in and only delivered about 90% of the EC bump I was expecting. Note to self, shake that bottle harder, sediment is not your friend. Vega B and Cannazym behaved exactly as predicted, Rhizotonic did its usual "not touching your EC" routine. Then the plot twist: I bumped the pH with 1.4 ml of pH+, and instead of holding steady, the EC actually dropped from 1.430 down to 1.375. Correcting the pH back down afterward didn't bring it back either, which rules out a fluke reading and points to a small calcium precipitation event: dump pH+ in one big shot instead of small sips, and you can spike the local pH high enough to knock calcium out of solution as an insoluble salt before it ever gets a chance to mix in properly. Filed away for next time with smaller pH+ doses and more patience. Closed the 0.125 gap with 6.05 ml each of A and B, and the meter read exactly 1.505. Sticking the landing after a session with that many curveballs felt genuinely satisfying — following Canna's own chart to the letter would've left me nowhere close. Moral of the story: trust your meter, not the label, and the girls get exactly what they came for. So if you are interested, here is the working feeding chart of Canna Aqua Vega to reach EC 1.5 mS in 10 Liter Base Water (EC 0.27): Canna Aqua Vega A - 17.55 ml - EC 1.070 Canna Aqua Vega B - 17.55 ml - EC 1.432 Rhizotonic - 13.5 ml - EC 1.432 Cannazym - 16.85 ml - EC 1.496

Week 6 of flowering cookies Gelato by RQS Hallo again brother and sister Growmies and homies . I will be making the diaries somewhat individual per strain. They're in same tent but not same strain lol . In the beginning didn't know what i was doing 🤣🤣 and had both diaries the same but from now on I will treat them as different plants/diaries 💪🏻 so this will be same as the other diary because there's nothing to talk about yet lol Fresh new week ahead . I am excited let's do this 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Day 35 Cookies Gelato New start of the week. The Cookies Gelato looking mean, green and sticky as hell . Getting my better microscope in tomorrow so i can check on the progress. I had a small microscope but you have to ram that one into your eyes to see through it lol . This morning i gave them 1L water with the full range of awesome advanced Nutrients. I am very happy with these nutrients! They are perfect for me! Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 I am running this fully marshydro Marshydro GT 100X100X180cm tent and Marshydro TS-1000 LED lamp Day 36 Flowering Cookies Gelato Cookies have good time next to the Critical's i am very excited to try this one. They don't sell in shops here but if they do, you pay 40 euro per gram and i ain't that dumb lol. Gave the plants 1.25L 🌊 pH 6.6 and that's it I let them do their thing. Also trying out my new microscope it's definitely a learning curve to focus in with not steady hand lol . Sorry for the first blurry pics 🙈 Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Come visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD And you will get a nice discount. Day 37 Flowering Cookies Gelato Got some leaves away that were droopy . Nothing special, made new video today so take look if you want 🤘🏻. Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Day 38 Flowering Cookies Gelato The Cookies Gelato Frosty Town in cookies gelato ally 3 big main ones going on with cookies Gelato#2 this one was topped and the cookies Gelato #1 i think was fimming and has 2 main ones and nicely grow below . Same issue with critical tho low bud structure . its definitely Going to be better to cut the top when they're done and let the lower grow continue for a week or so . Today i Gave the cookies gelato water with advanced Nutrients with pH 6.5 ppm the same as critical i forgot right now what it was lol Day 39 Flowering Cookies Gelato Moved the big branches more to the light and tied them to the ScrOG netting definitely more light created now 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻 Come visit www.marshydro.eu for your best gear and use the PROMO CODE: DEVILSBUD And you will get a nice discount. Day 40 Flowering Cookies Gelato Been bizzy trying to get cookies gelato under the microscope is quite a task . The best way for me is to cut 😱😱😱 something off and lay it down. it works but still need to fine tune it a little better but amazing what you can see up close 👀 some leafes had a lot of ambers on it but the buds (not photography) are still clear so it has some way to go still. Day 41 end of week 6 of Flowering Week 6 is over Growmies what a wonderful week!!! Getting the microscope under control and starting to see the milkyway . But still a lot of clear trichomes so i will wait with flush this week . I think next week i can start the flush of cookies gelato 🤘🏻 I appreciate all the comments, likes, views and tips you guys are an awesome community 👍🏻👍🏻 . Have great time growing and see you in the other week guys and girls Growmies and homies Come look at my other diaries! I appreciate it a lot 🤘🏻

Day: 35 from sprout Strain: Chill Out OG F4 Medium: Fox Farm Ocean Forest Light: Vivosun VS2000 50% Light Distance: 12 inches Watering: By hand, ~12 oz daily Nutrients: pH Perfect Advanced Nutrition Grow, Bloom, Micro 2 ml / L Looking bushy. Did a little defoliation throughout the week

The end games came out great. They smell un real. The buds are rock solid. It was a great strain to grow i had no mold or rot issues on it. Its probably my favorite ive grown so far looks wise anyways. The ww and skunks were harvested 2 weeks ago and have been trimmed. I have 4 oz of each plant in jars with a vivi cure pack and the rest sealed in grove bags im going to do a comparison in a few months to see if there's a difference in the vivi cure to grove bags. I lost a good bit of o e ww to rot i was able to salvage like 4 Oz. I got about 3 pounds between all 4 plants after the loss. Im cutting the games tomorrow am. Ill be back with a update on smoke and smell in a month.

Eccoci ragazzi alla terza settimana! La pianta sta crescendo ad un ritmo davvero elevato, nn ho mai visto nulla del genere crescere con questa velocità! E anche il colore delle foglie di un verde intenso, è la grandezza totale della pianta sono fenomenali! Sono davvero impressionato, non mi sarei mai aspettato che la coltura in idroponica sia così poderosa e significativamente molto più sviluppata rispetto ad una coltivazione in terra! Me ne avevano parlato molto di questa capacità di crescita così rapida, ma davvero nn sto credendo ai miei occhi! Sto imparando molto grazie anche al manuale di texier, ma sopratutto penso siano i suoi nutrienti a fare gran parte della differenza! Le radici sono davvero ben sviluppate e per adesso non ho mai cambiato l acqua xke mi è sempre sembrato di un ottimo colore, e non noto alcun problema per adesso dal out o di vista radicale, probabilemnte grazie alle basse temperature della soluzione che nn supera i 20 gradi celsius e questo penso sia un grande vantaggio che tende a non far sviluppare funghi o microrganismi maligni per lo sviluppo della pianta! Per adesso sono davvero piacevolmente sorpreso dei risultati che sto ottenendo! Spero di continuare in questa direzione e di avere sempre la giusta conoscenza di questo nuovo tipo di coltivazione così chiamata da William texier "bio - ponica" una giusta terminologia per descrivere qualcosa di coltivato biologico senza uso di pesticidi o altro, e che sia fatta in acqua senza suolo! Garzie anche al sistema di Mars Hydro Dwc che per adesso si sta rivelando un ottimo sistema idroponico! Posso solo dire garzie di far parte della loro famiglia e anche quella di Terra Aquatica, è spero di continuare con questi ottimi risultati! L unico problema del loro sistema è il cambio Dell acqua, che xo penso si aver risolto comprando una pompa che mi aiuti a svuotare completamente la soluzione vecchia e sostituirla con quella nuova.. Grazie a tutti voi che mi seguite che siete da stimolo per continuare questa battaglia di coltivare questa mia passione per la cannabis che nel mio paese "Italia" è ormai perseguitata e sta diventando illegale pure il CBD nonostante nn sia psicoattivo, e sta portando al. Collasso l intero settore produttivo della filiera della canapa! Siamo perseguitati peggio dei mafiosi, i quali hanno ottimi avvocati che li fanno uscire di prigione! Un buon 420 a tutti voi! 🙏💪😸🌱🌿🧑‍🌾😽💨🔥💥💣

Nice purple colour, Easy to grow, compact buds, cold resistant. But second pheno made a lot of seeds 😓 I dont recommend ThSeeds because the quality isnt that good and I feel like I wasted money and time with that strain. The smell isnt that insane

9/21: I harvested 2 more of the #4's, and my 3 hybrid autos last night. After washing them, I hung them to dry in a room with very little airflow and average temperature of around 78f-80f. The humidity has been pretty high, so hopefully they dry slowly. After 4 days of hanging to dry, I've been alternating the first #4 that I harvested between a brown paper bag and a 1 gallon jar every day to slow the drying process and will probably do the same with these 5 plants. 9/22: I fed the 4 x #2's, flushed the 4 x #10's, and watered the remaining 2 x #4's and the 2 x #3's with some liquid soil only. They're pretty much ripe and ready, but they'll have to wait another day or two until I have some time to spare. 9/23: I harvested the last 2 x #4's and one of the #3's today. Buds washed and hung to dry- 9/25: ...late night and early the 26th.. Harvested all 4 of the #10's and the last #3. Yowsa, those #10 buds are heavy and sticky! I moved the last 4 plants into my tiny tent..all the #2's. For their last week, they're gonna be about a foot underneath 360w of quantum boards in roughly 5 square feet of space (36" x 20"), which breaks down to about 72w/sq ft, so I'm venting my bigger CO2 bucket into the tiny tent for the next week.

Harvest: Everything dried up to 347 grams + 96 grams of super high quality trim. Overall I am not too pleased with the smoke of the product. Although the bud size, bag appeal, smell and taste are pretty much all there, the shitty burn is a deal breaker for me and the majority of this weed is quite frankly useless. Another downside is while smoking I’ve found 4 seeds in an ounce from almost every strain. Light leaks? At least I learned a ton, including how to get super good burn for my next crop. I’m hoping that curing for a month or so will improve the burn but I wouldn’t really count on it. I have seen weed dried for 4 days with no cure and no flush smoke clean and not go out once. I have been told that the key to white ashes/clean burn is proper mineral content in the soil and there is tons of scientific studies on cigar ash going back 100 years. Plants grown in a medium with high levels of decomposing organic matter, phosphorus, magnesium, chlorine and heavy metal ratio tend to produce black/grey ash. Whereas plants grown in a medium with a higher ratio of trace minerals like calcium carbonate and potassium in the form of wood ash, rock dusts, oyster shell flour and lower levels of decomposing organic matter will produce a dense, uniform white ash that rarely goes out. But this is still all theory until I test it to confirm for myself a few times. My last few outdoor harvests did not improve with curing at all so I’m hoping this will be the missing link. Plain peat moss and coco clearly lack essential minerals that help burn. If said theory is correct I should find a synthetic nutrient line with more trace minerals. Makes me wonder if growing if rockwool/basalt rock could improve burn in a hydro setup. I think I did a fairly decent job for my first grow. I went wrong in a million different places but I still stuck it out and got some decent herb. Things went wrong early when I got black spot mold, nitrogen/magnesium deficiencies and powdery mildew. I corrected most of it but things didn’t get really bad until mid veg when I intentionally skipped a few feedings and defoliated quite heavily stunting the plants. I also didn’t even top or start LST until the 6-9th node which was really stupid and hurt my yield. My temperatures were all over the place from the learning curve. I was severely overwatering without realizing it. 100% peat moss is a shitty medium. I also fed way too late in flower (not what caused shitty burn). I also used synthetic nutrients in soil.

Week 7, day 28 of Bloom

Hello Growers and Tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 Finally got that transpant done. Added a bit of root juice to help out the transplant. Won't be adding nutes until next week, directly bloom nutes.. Took waaaay to long to transplant. They didn't get any growth becuase of the bad weather these past weeks. Very bummed out about that. Two of the are already in prefower.. the tiniest i hope grows a bit more.. can't really ask for much more given the bad weather and that they're autos.. I'll for sure be doing a re run with this strain with better stable conditions. Take care out there! One love!

The scrog was no good idea. Had to remove it today. Problems: unable to switch water properly and can‘t clean the tank during the process. So.. scrog is gone and the LST is back 😂

Start of week 3

Candy gas ⛽️ 🍬

Que pasa familia, vamos con la séptima semana de floración de estas FBA2506 de FastBuds. De las 5 plantas, retiré una y me quede con 4 , preselección. La tierra que utilizamos que está en la publicación anterior es top crop all mix, Por supuesto el ph se mide en cada riego y se mantiene en 6.2, regando cada 48 horas e intentando mantener la humedad por debajo del 50%. Las flores ya están madurando rápido y cogieron las 4 un tono morado bastante curioso. Los aromas por el momento dulces con tonos afrutados, como a gominolas o chicles. Un ejemplar sigue un poco sobrefertilizado, es la única con la que me corte para alimentar. Una semana limpiando raíces con flawless finish. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Sie wächst weiterhin prächtig! Ich lass sie einfach ihr Ding machen und passe nur regelmäßig den Lampenabstand an.
