Haven't updated my grow diary for a little more than two weeks due to a severe back flare up. Yup, bad back strain, which has made it hard to sit, lay, stand for any duration of time. Suffice to say, much has happened since last update. The PBCRbx has undergone a growth spurt after a bucket change and upping nutrient (ppm) levels as I transitioned her to flower. And in that time, she received one defoliation in veg and a recent (and last) defoliation in flower. At this point, I just need to maintain healthy roots, consistent environment, and proper water levels with feedings. She's due another bucket change soon as ppm levels dropping and ph is adjusting upwards every reading. This is good sign from my understanding as a first time DWC grower. As far as feeding, lowered grow big (veg) and upped both tiger bloom and beastie blooms along with a splash of big bloom and cal/mag. Topping off buckets with about 1100+ ppm, which helps maintain ph in bucket at roughly 700-800 ppm. But it's getting harder to maintain those levels in flower, so that's why I believe a bucket change is in order. Here are photos spanning the entire 2-3 week period since last update.

WHATS NEW...? THIS WEEK SHE MADE AVERAGE PROGRESS. PROBABLY BECAUSE OF THE HIGH TEMPERATURES (90F/30C). BUT NEXT WEEK IM GONNA PROBABLY GET MY NEW DEHUMIDIFIER AND THE NEXT WEEKS GONNA BE MUCH COLDER ON AVERAGE COMPARED TO LAST MONTH (SUMMER ENDS). SO SHE HOPEFULLY GETS IN THE NEXT 1-2 WEEKS A BOOST WHEN THE TEMPS ARE MORE IDEAL. THE EXTRA CO2 PROBABLY ALSO HELPS. KEEP ON GROWING, SMOKING & ENJOYING LIFE ☢️👽💨

Older leaves on bottom and middle of the plant are starting to yellow now that they don’t receive as much light, the branches have created a nice canopy surrounding the plant. I cleaned up the middles and bottom of plant by removing leaves as they completely yellow day by day, and remove small suckers that appear at the base of the branches to keep the energy going towards the tops. Plants will get another round of Jobes organic granular feed to help the new branches fatten up and provide adequate bud sites for flowering period! 5 gallons will receive 1 cup while 15 gallons will receive 2 cups of granular feed, weather predicts rain the next few days which will help the plants getting their nutrients

Flush day!!! Buds are like stonedd. AN products working very well.

Der Grow neigt sich dem Ende, die Pflanze zeigt eine schöne Herbstfärbung und es sind erste bernsteinfarbene Trichome zu sehen. Ich gehe davon aus, dass ich in den nächsten Tage ernte werde. Ich gieße seit ca. 1 Woche nur pH angepasstes Wasser. Hier und da habe ich bei den obersten Headbuds Foxtails, weil der PPFD-Wert dort zu hoch war, aber das sind nur Schönheitsmängel. Der Besatz an Trichomen und die Kompaktheit der Blüten sind sehr gut. Aber am besten gefällt mir der Geruch - extrem süß blaubeerig, dieser durchströmt beim Öffnen des Zeltes mein ganzes Zimmer.

A mitad de camino, sigo notando un leve exceso de Nitrógeno por lo que bajo la dosis a 0,5 ML por Litro de BASE GROW como muestra la tabla de Fertilización. Ambas plantas son muy vigorosas y formaron una linda estructura ramificada, espero sean buenas productoras. Seria ideal conseguir 100 gramos secos entre las 2, en alrededor de 12 a 13 semanas. Yo siempre riego solo con agua las ultimas 2 semanas, pero en este caso la que esté lista primera para cosechar aplicare algún producto de lavado de raíces.

It was an easy harvest as the colas developed nicely. Hardly any popcorn nugs and very little sugar leaves. If the weather had allowed it, I think she could have grown even bigger, but I'm more than happy with the outcome!

Plants are doing well, The 84" inch tent is a must if your not training or topping. I removed all the sacks that appeared last week and I haven't seen anymore show up so fingers cross, I check daily. Bigger tent also helps with heat control as the air has more room to rise. Hope you all like the pictures, I started to take videos as they provide more detail with less work.

Semana 5 desde germinación. Semana 1 de Floración. Las dos plantas han crecido rápido y con hartas hojas. Red Critical 1 - Poda apical - Poda de ramas bajas para potenciar ramas superiores Red Critical 2 - Se le aplicó LST hace unas semanas. Solo he podado un par de hojas que sombreaban ramas bajas

Приветствую всех, кто следить за мной. Ваша поддержка очень важна для меня. На следующий день после того как я обновил прошлую неделю дневника наступило время пересадить растения в более крупное ведро. Я покажу вам как использовать дешовые пивные стаканы для пересадки ваших растений. Вы можете посмотреть это на первом видео. Когда я пересаживал растения я дополнительно добавил микоризу в большое ведро. Они укоренялись менее недели, порядка четерых дней. После чего они всё ещё показывают некоторое замедленный в росте и стресс, но в этот раз я забыл открыть окна, чтоб свежий воздух попадал и сбивал тепмературу в помещенье, так как мои лампы достаточно сильно греют несмотря на мощную вентиляцию. Поэтому сегодня я так же я дал корневые и вегетативные стимуляторы роста, а так же основное питание и поставил комнату на проветривание. Я так же удалил первую пару непродуктивных листьев и отростающих от них боковых ветвей, так как правило они бывают непродуктивными и замедляют рост растения отводя на себя часть гормонов роста и питательных веществ. До новых встречь, если вам интересно следить за Русской травкой, подписывайтесь на мои дневники ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Greetings to all who follow me. Your support is very important to me. The day after I updated the last week of the diary, it was time to transplant the plants into a larger bucket. I will show you how to use cheap beer glasses to transplant your plants. You can watch it on the first video. When I transplanted plants, I additionally added mycorrhiza to a large bucket. They took root less than a week, on the order of four days. After which they still show some growth retardation and stress, but this time I forgot to open the windows so that fresh air enters and knocks down the temperature in the room, since my lamps warm quite strongly despite the powerful ventilation. Therefore, today I also gave root and vegetative growth stimulants, as well as basic nutrition and set the room to air. I also removed the first pair of unproductive leaves and lateral branches growing from them, since as a rule they are unproductive and slow down the growth of the plant, releasing some of the growth hormones and nutrients. Until we meet again, if you are interested in following Russian weed, subscribe to my diaries

Sep 2: still going. Colas are starting to weigh heavily on the Scrog net which is good to see. Sep 7: late season hailstorm did some minor damage.

So, absolutely against the recommendation I received from a friend of mine who's been growing for 20+ years, I pruned/defoliated my plants up a bit this week. I decided to for a few reasons. - the plants were really dense with foliage, many leaves overlapping and pushing other leaves - most of the bud sites were shaded under several layers of leaves - the leaves pilling up would have been restricting airflow quite a lot, I want to prevent budrot or mold by increasing aeration - I wanted to control where the plants were growing, and focus their energy into the buds - with this being an outdoor grow late in the season with less sun I felt it was more important to expose the developing buds to the sun With all that said, I think my plants have responded extremely well to the pruning in the last few days. I've never pruned or defoliated before so this is going to serve as a test for me. I like doing new things and seeing what happens. No matter what, these plants look really good right now and I'm sure I'll get a decent harvest, I'm trying to push it from decent to fantastic. My PPM is a bit high, though none of the plants look like they're being hindered by it. I did a partial water change on 2 of the 3 (the one in the 3 gallon bucket and the one that looks more like and indica). The 3 gallon bucket plant was at a PPM of 5000ish so I made sure to get it more in line with the other two, and with the partial water change I got it to around 2000. The other plants are sitting at right about 3000. I will continue to monitor the plants and check PPM, if it doesn't go down next week I think I'll do another partial water change. I want to keep pumping in nutrient while preventing any burn or lockout. Trichomes are no observable on the two plants in larger buckets. The smaller bucket plant was the last to sprout, so it's about a week or two behind the others. This week has been pretty poor weather where I'm at. Lots of rain and clouds. I've kept the plants under cover but still in direct sunlight. This coming week is supposed to be clear sky again so I'll move them to capture the most light once the rain stops. I know defoliation is debatable, especially with outdoor grows, but I like to push boundaries. Here's a list of the things I've done with this grow: - kratky method hydroponics (other than a partial water change I have added no water since starting in buckets, no airstone, no pump) - Winter grow (shortest light period of the year here) - Topping (and it looks like one is more like FIMing, also one grew as if it were topped without my input) - Dense nutrient load (I've added more nutrient in this grow than any grow I have previously done. Mostly because I never achieved super large buds and I'm really aiming for that this time) - Water change (like an aquarium, I've never done a water change other than flush before, this week called for it with the high PPM which I think was residual from nutrient loading in veg so I wanted to make sure there's room for the flower nutes) - Defoliation/pruning (nothing too crazy or drastic, started this week and don't plan to trim again unless I see a need to)

It was a nice experience, It helped me with some things that I didn't know before. It was hard at the beginning because the plant was on a bad situation. But thanks to some fertilizers everything changed, also with love and patience. Good production but it could have been more. Next times will be better, now we have to be thankful and ready to continue😜

I f**ked up with the lighting schedule..
