Week 3: 4 of the ladies showed sex this week. The big girl popped pistils on day 18 and the other 3 ladies popped pistils on day 20. I hope ill get another week of veg before the growth spurt and fill out their pots. Training: during the 4 days of ponytailing i noticed the aggressive growth on the side branches, cant say it had a big effect as bending has. This week i held the branches down with wiring to create nice strong branches and ive been leaf tucking everyday. I lock the leave blades together with lower leaves to hold them in place but they wont stay down. Im trying to avoid selective deleafing till after the big growth spurt. Nutrients: the ladies had their first feeding last week and 2 waterings ph'd to 6.5 with 2 dry days between every watering. Ill be giving their 2nd feeding on day 25. Im raising the dosage of Canna Terra Vega from 0.5ml/L to 1ml/L

Well, the drought stress in week 11 really fucked my plants up, but Twiggy recovered, while Zoey was hurt pretty bad. If I did nothing, I'm betting harvest would've been 25% more, and Zoey's buds wouldn't look so crappy, but overall, I was so happy with this grow! I was under a time crunch, so only did minimal veg for 4 weeks, topping once. Daily watering with 1.8EC mix that was pretty consistent. Kept pH between 5.5 and 5.8. Kept tight control on humidity and temperature up to mid flower, then kept air circulation on to keep room humidity around 55% Things I'd do differently: 1. Veg longer - I'd love to try a mainline 2. Canopy control - wish I had spent the time on a SCROG screen, or at least a couple of rings. 3. More light sooner into flower. Waited about 4 weeks into flower before maxing out the light. Probably could've bulked them up significantly if I started earlier 4. Drought stressing - For Fucks Sake, keep a close eye on your plants, and the minute they start to wilt, get the water back on 'em!!! 5. Measure your run-off more frequently for salt build-up. Didn't have any problems, but it's a good best practice. 6. Set up proper closed-loop environment to allow for CO2 enrichment. 7. Set up a clone environment before you get to flower. Oops. Things I was happy with: 1. VPD control system (heat, humidity) during veg and early flower worked flawlessly. Never any nute burn, and super healthy plants. 2. Sterilized soil and grow-room before starting - never had a single bug or any mold/mildew issues. Used a MERV 13 filter on the air intake, exhaust through carbon to crawlspace. 3. Coco/perlite mix - super drainage, low build-up, very healthy roots. 4. Power meter - neat way to measure what's really going into the grow, so when your wife complains about power usage, you can show her the real numbers. 5. Photone app on Android S20 - Knew where my PPFD was for optimal growth control. 6. REX-C100 PID controller for toaster oven - super tight temperature control comes in handy for decarbing as well as toasting oak for moonshine.

flowering day 59/"FD59" (flowering week #9 since 12/12): ... the final 1-2 weeks with only water/no feeding :) flowering day 60/"FD60" (flowering week #9 since 12/12): i just uploaded a video ๐Ÿ˜Ž flowering day 61/"FD61" (flowering week #9 since 12/12): early today i spotted four banans/nanners (first row right) und two banans/nanners (first row left) in the 80x80 240W tent on two plants in the (closest to the camera) first row. Cause they are nearly finished i decided to crop these 2 plants. They look really beautiful and purpled very much., I think the reason for the purple is that that they where the closest plants for the fresh air within the airflow and it was sometimes a little bit cold. I am a little bit frustrated cause the quantity could be 50% more but this time i am pretty sure that the LED panel was too close and/or too much power (95% powered 2x 120W panels). Next time i will use a new tent and plan to spend more time for the hole air and carbon filter setup. This time i had not enough space to raise the panel higher... Maybe the spide mites attack in the early flowering stage was also a factor. flowering day 65/"FD65" (flowering week #9 since 12/12): just a few shots before the final crop in ~1-4 days ๐Ÿ˜Ž Summary for the next grow: 1. next time i will raise the LED-panels distance higher and reduce the power to 80% in the late flower 2. buying a better 80x80 tent 3. i will use poison in the last days of the vegetative phase again to be 100% sure that mites&thrips have no chance 4. four plants in 11L pots are enough in the 80x80., Otherwise it is hard to keep care of the plants in the last row. This will make the veg-phase longer (training) but i think the better airflow and more space are really better 5. next time i will use a scrog-net again... handling to stabilize the buds every day is too much work ๐Ÿ˜‚

Week 8 is now complete and I could not be more satisfied with the progress. Everything is running perfectly according to plan. As suspected, the stretch finally ended last week and the Wedding Cheesecake has reached its final height. This makes handling inside the tent much more relaxed after a generous defoliation. Since the plant has stopped its vertical expansion, I have increased the LED lighting to 100%. At a constant distance of 20 cm from the canopy, we are now hitting a solid 750 PPFD. The plant is handling the full intensity excellently so far. I watered several times this week, and water consumption remains stable at over one liter per day even after the defoliation. Now that the stretch is over and the plant structure is established, there is very little to do except be patient and enjoy the show. The most exciting weeks of the flowering phase are ahead of us, and I am looking forward to seeing the buds gain mass and resin. In the next few days, the plant will also receive a bloom booster (Green Sensation) for the first time, and the EC value will be pushed above 2.0.

1/3/20 Week 8! Minor defoliation and some canopy leveling, just trying to fit it all in a 4x4 tent. The other grow will finish in a week or so and give em a bit of room. Just Bloom nuets at avg dose until these get some room, dont really want em larger. 1/9 Ending week with a foliar feed primarily on Tara as she has grown so fast she is flirting with some def. If I dont get results from the Cal-Mag I will shift to epsom salt in a couple of days. Considering upping the ppm in lieu of adding cal-mag no signs of overfeeding at all. Defoliation tomorrow to start week 9

Made the flip to flower to start this week. Did a bunch of lst to get the side branches booming for the Scrog. Put a second net right above her to start things off spacing and structre wise. Second she starts to stretch its scrog game on! Got her on a well balanced diet to support her transition period. Can't wait to see her explode and take off! Start rowing me out some colas! Treated her with lost coast as a preventative. Next up us dr zhymes in 5 days. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

๐ŸŒฑ Day 29 - First Day of Flowering Phase ๐ŸŒฑ Hey everyone! ๐ŸŒฟ I'm super excited to finally enter the flowering phase of my first grow! I have to admit, I was quite surprised to see that the plant had already been in pre-flower for three days and are developing really well. ๐ŸŒธ Current Conditions for the Flowering Phase: Watered today with 800ml + 1ml/L BioBizz Bloom ๐Ÿ’ง๐ŸŒฟ Humidity: 50-55% ๐Ÿ’ง Light: 100% intensity, 50cm distance, 16 hours light, 8 hours dark ๐Ÿ’ก๐ŸŒ™ Current Issues: I'm dealing with a few small yellow spots on the leaves, which seem to be caused by a calcium and magnesium deficiency.

420Fastbuds ApricotAuto/Week5 What up grow fam. Sorry for the late weekly update but was having some technical difficulties. This week has been eventful to say the least. My heater went out letting my Temps drop to high 40'f for a night or two and wow did the plants tell me they're angry. Definitely starting to bounce back but just goes to show the reselants of Fastbuds genetics. I lollipoped and did one more defoliation this week so hopefully flower stage will be smooth sailing. All in all Happy Growing

********Week 1 Flower - Sept 19 to 25, 2020******* We switched to flower this week and put in the first SCROG layer.....been busy๐Ÿ˜ƒThese girls have been pretty happy this week given they have grown quite tall and buds are setting and moved on to stacking already. Great signs so early on๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿคž I had LST on the girls and then decided to remove the ties since they were topped and under a net so maybe stretch wouldnโ€™t be too bad.......ties went back on at the end of the week๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿคช Pheno 4 has on branch that had HST done and knuckle formed, still growing up so had to keep it tied down as well. Down side to running a 9 week veg, if they want to get big, they will๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Pest maintenance this week as we are getting the last days I am able to comfortably spray the girls. Lost Coast Plant Therapy to keep the gnats, aphids and thrips in check๐Ÿ˜ƒ Keeping the waterings up and getting a fair bit of runoff from the feedings but that is best for Coco to avoid lockouts and pH issues. There were only three feeding days this week. We switched to bloom nutes for base and added silica for supplementals. Vitamin B and Kelp coming from B52 and sweetener for the microbes from bud candy, Bud Ignitor doing its thing as PK boost. As well as Sensyzime to let the enzymes clean up the root zone because they have been in the pots for a few weeks now. Little more detail: Sept 19/20 - Day 1 - Plant Therapy @ 5ml in 1L water. Ph to 5.4. - Folier spray applied to whole tent half hour before lights on, used 3/4 of mixture - Feeding mixture was Sensyzime @ 1ml only - 25ppm and 5.2pH......missed it a bit. - each girl given 3L - SCROG put in Sept 20/20 - Day 2 - Sprayed the last of the IPM mixture on the tent tonight. - Noticed several small shinny spots on leaves later today.....suspect from Folier spray on leaves. Sept 21/20 - Day 3 - Nice full strength week 1 mixture applied today - Rhino Skin, Cal Mag @ 2ml, Sensi Bloom A&B , B52, Bud Ignitor, Bud Candy @ 1ml. - 625 ppm and 5.7pH - 3L given to each girl.......not enough runoff.....bump feedings up to 4L going forward. - silica added today. Sept 23/20 - Day 5 - CalMag @ 2ml, Rhino, Sensi Bloom A&B, B52, Bud Candy, Bud Ignitor @ 1ml. - 850ppm and 5.9pH - 4L given to each girl. - better run off amount That wraps up the first week of flower........The net is in and the lights flipped. The girls were ready for flower and now we just need to keep giving them what they want for the next 6 weeks and then coast from there๐Ÿ‘ These are some strong and fast growing girls.....keeps a grower on their toes! I expected the heights to be where they are but must admit I was hopeful that was the end of week 2. Issues will come in when trying to ripen the bud around week 8. They are growing so well right now.....keep them happy and in the end everyone is happy๐Ÿ‘โค๏ธ๐Ÿ‘ Such a solid strain @Sweet_Seeds......a great hybrid you should be very proud of!!! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™

My permanent marker plants are looking really interesting! The short and stocky one with the purple leaves is super vibrant. I love that pop of color against the green of the other plants. It's a little different from the taller plant, which has this really cool stacked-up look to it. I'm curious to see if those stacked-up leaves will change color too. The past few weeks have been so beautiful, watching the plants grow and change. It's amazing how something so small and fragile can turn into something so strong and vibrant. Now that they're getting ready to bloom, it feels a little bittersweet. I'm so excited to see the finished product, but I'll definitely miss having them around while they're growing.

calyxes are swelling. pistils are starting to ripen curling inwards and turning orange. Trichome production is getting higher. I committed a mortal sin and squeezed a bud with my hands. It was pretty dense. I was pruning a few fan leaves on the main cola that were blocking a lot of light and accidentally cut a bud off. I dried it and concluded that I lost about a gram ๐Ÿ™ The nug was pretty dense for being only 5 1/2 weeks at the time.I hope they are rock hard when ready. There are some of the most unique terpenes I've ever smelled. They smell like sweetened condensed milk with a sour earthy smell with a hint of skunk. My cat loves cannabis leaves....
