woohooo!

She’s evolving a sweet chewing gum like smell which is very pleasant . I think she’s taking the nitrogen of the leafes since there’s not much in the soil anymore . We’re aiming for 8-10 weeks of flower so this is fine for me . Overall she’s developing nicely except the lower branches which I usually cut off when lollipopping but this time I didn’t .

This week the humidity and temperature are better now than last week. We flushed and the water at pH 6.6. The flowers have also gained weight and the trichomes are becoming cloudy and it is already possible to find some amber. In the mornings we are trying to let her receive sunlight every day.

Beginning of week... Beginning of first flush week! So excited!!! I put 4mL of FloraKleen into 3L of pH'd water.. Going in: 160 PPM.. Runoff: 700 PPM.. I may run 1 more flush of FloraKleen through the medium in the AM.. Will be updating on the runoff as I go.. Just makes better sense to check runoff to me.. I know some people dont do it.. And claim its pointless.. But I think runoff tells you ALOT.. I think the runoff reading is just from what was built into the medium still.. I just like to make sure she's getting nice and flushed for a good while.. And if the trichomes arent where I want them to be at the end of the 2 week flush I will flush for another week.. But only if needed.. Anyways.. Hope these 2 weeks fly by cuz the week before this didnt at all! Lol.. Next day.. Today is day 2 of flushing.. Used FloraKleen once again.. This time the runoff came out at 640 PPM.. Gettin there lol.. Tonight I'm going to just run 3L of pH'd water and same tomorrow morning.. Will update in the AM Later that night.. Lol.. This time the runoff came out at 750 PPM.. I'm guessing its just more nutrients that were built up in there.. Jeez.. So tomorrow I am just going to flush pH'd water in the AM and in the PM.. With more updates on how that goes.. I also lowered the light down to 12 inches from the tallest colas.. According to the PPFD chart Mars Hydro has, the tall colas (but outside of the footprint) should be getting close to 800 PAR and the shorter (but in the middle of the footprint) should be getting.. Roughly around the same I suppose.. The inside branches are still about 14 - 16 inches from the light.. Wish I would have been able to keep the canopy more even.. But I went with a LST technique that helped me keep all the branches instead of removing some.. Like instead of bending the plant over (to make a "T") to where some branches should probably just be removed because they are going straight into the medium lol.. But this time I tried to bend her over a little different (to make an "X") so that all the branches wouldn't be going straight into the medium.. Idk.. something I've been trying to figure out on my own lol.. But I think I prefer the "T" because it is easier to keep each branch, and it's twin, fairly even throughout the grow.. But I'm still happy asf how this grow has gone so far.. Should have lollipopped a bit too.. But I still enjoy smoking every last bit of these ladies.. And if they are too popcorn-ish, I'll just throw them in a bubble bag with the trim.. Still gonna be happy with the outcome either way!!! Autos are fun.. But I think I still prefer to control when flowering begins.. I know a 2×2 isn't ideal for this.. But I really wanna try to ScrOG a girl in this tent! Just to give it a shot and see how much of a difference it can make in yeild.. Anyways.. Will update tomorrow with the runoff and whatnot!... NEXT day after THAT (Almost mid week)... This AM the runoff came out 444 PPM.. Since I already mixed some pH'd water, I'm gonna use it later tonight.. With an update.. Lol Later that night... Runoff is still coming out about 400 PPM.. Decided to check the pH and the runoff is coming out at 7.. The fuck!? Maybe I forgot to pH earlier this week.. Idk. Whatever lol.. Mid week.. Runoff came out at 333 PPM this morning.. Just going to go back to one watering a day till harvest now. Hope I can get it down to 200 PPM or lower for the last week at least.. But still not sure if I will be letting it go an extra week or not.. We shall see how it goes till then.. The nug I attempted to pollinate didnt take.. Guessing the pollen was too old.. Trashed it.. It was feminized pollen but wasnt the greatest genetics either.. So no loss there.. But the nug looks kinda pathetic.. The pic shows it next to its sister nug and that one still looks good.. Maybe cuz Ive been fucking with it alot.. But whatev.. Shit happens.. May still keep updating the runoff daily.. May not.. See how I feel tomorrow lol Next day.. Runoff came out at 330 PPM again this morning.. Not bad, I suppose.. Alot lower than what its been before I started using this Brita filter lol.. May use Florakleen once more at the beginning of the next week.. Then just water till harvest. Just to see if I can get it down a little more. If not, I'm sure it'll be fine. The fan blowing on the undedside of the light slipped off the pole and was chopping away at one of the colas.. Luckily none of the buds were damaged.. Trichomes definately got knocked off tho lol.. And mostly leaf damage.. This girl smells so fucking amazing.. The colors are awesome.. I don't think I can find another strain to top this one lol.. We shall see tho... Almost end of week.. Runoff came down to 280 PPM this morning.. Niceeee.. I can live with that.. As long as it's not 400+ PPM I think it should be fine.. The main top cola is showing a nice amount of cloudy.. And the very bottom 2 stems are cloudy also.. But the rest of the plant seems moslty clear but also have some cloudy/milky along with them.. I can find a few amber in spots.. Will be updating with pics tomorrow along with some trichome shots!!!... End of week.. Today's runoff came out at 260 PPM.. Niceeee.. I tried to get alot of trichome shots but I just don't have a steady enough hand.. A couple colas have some amber coming it on the very top calyxes.. Some colas are cloudy.. Almost there!!! Not sure if I am gonna take this just 1 more week or 2 more weeks.. We will see how she looks at the end of the next week... As for now.. On to the next week!!!...

2.17.2024: End of week 3. Plant is heathy and doing well. Pistils are showing and def in the preflower stage. Would wager there will be noticeable bud development at the end of this week. Still no nutes given although i would have to imagine its getting to be that time. No defoliation yet, only slight LST to the bottom branches. 2.18.2024: Start of week four from seed. Holding course. 2.19.2024: Day 31 from seed. Plant is drinking more. Gave 64oz at 6.4ph. Run off ppm was 1450 at 6.6ph. Essentially 4 full weeks from seed before i need to start feeding. Next watering will contain nutrients. 2.20.2024: Plant is doing its thing. Firmly in the preflower/early flower stage. Growing 1/2 to 1 inch a day it seems like. Still can't bring myself to do any defoliation. 2.21.2024: Day 33 from seed, 29 from sprout. Picked up the pot this morning and it was very lite so i gave it another 64oz at 6.3ph. No run off this time which tells me they are starting to need more water or i need to up the frequency. Still no nutes in 33 days! The branches of the top 2 large fan leaves this morning were sagging a bit with a touch of purple on the stems. Chalking that up to water but will monitor as we progress. 2.22.2024: Besides white tips on top growth, steady as she goes. I'll post a pic of the white tips. No idea how to solve. Plant is totally in flower but since we're almost at the end of week 5 from seed, i'll keep the diary in "flower." 14.5 inches from soil to top. Would love to see these get to 24 inches by the end. 2.23.2024: Upped water to 96oz at 6.4ph. About 2 cups of run off at 6.4ph and 1500ppm. Original soil still has nutes to offer at day 35 from seed.

Day 66. First girl down, found Bud Rot, so even happy to chop her ! Fastest plant ever, 66 days from seed touching soil !!! Day 74. Second down and bud rot again !!! Lost nicest part of the plant ... In panic chopped two other girls too early and one close to good time.... But now the rest have more space ... Day 78. First girl jared. Day 84. Second girl is curing. Happy Growing !

Also a fastbuds purple lemonade in a 11 litre pot (30grams)a a original cheese in a 2 litre pot(experimenting)which is not ready yet. Strawberry pie.....wow so impressed with the yield but also the looks are amazing and smells like strawberries... who’d of thought it lol. Recommend to everybody will defo grow again. Fastbuds are killing the auto game!👊🏻

Tag 51 (Blütetag 11)! Der Dschungel ruft! 🌿🔥 Die zweite Blütewoche ist angebrochen und was soll ich sagen? Der Stretch ist in vollem Gange! Seit der Umstellung am 19. Dezember haben die Z-Vallys, OreoZ Milkshakes und die Zapplez 2.0 ordentlich an Fahrt aufgenommen. 📈 Statusbericht vom Feld: • Der Stretch: Die Mädels strecken sich jetzt massiv Richtung Licht. Dank des konsequenten LST (Low Stress Training) haben wir ein wunderschönes, gleichmäßiges Blätterdach (Canopy), das die gesamte Fläche perfekt ausnutzt. • Wochenrückblick. Das Mikro-Wunder, sm letzten Dienstag gab es das absolute Highlight für das Bodenleben.Frischen Komposttee! ☕✨ Damit haben wir die Mikroorganismen im Living Soil so richtig befeuert, um die Nährstoffaufnahme für die kommende Blütenpracht zu maximieren. • Technik-Check: Wo Licht ist, ist auch Schatten – mein PH-Messgerät hat leider den Geist aufgegeben. 🛠️ Aber Kopf hoch: Im Living Soil von @panova25.de und @living_roots_pro verzeihen uns die Mikroorganismen solche Ausfälle eher, da das Substrat eine starke Pufferwirkung hat. Ein neues Gerät ist natürlich schon in Planung! 🌸 Vom Stretch zur Knospe Die Vitalität ist unübersehbar. Das satte Grün und die kräftigen Stiele zeigen uns, dass die Pflanzen bereit sind für das, was jetzt kommt. Die Vorblüte bildet sich aus, und wir begleiten jeden Zentimeter des Wachstums engmaschig. 🌱 Die Crew & 🤝 Das Ökosystem Genetik: • Z-Vally (2x) & OreoZ Milkshake (2x) | @positronicsseedsgermany @positronicsseed • Zapplez 2.0 (1x) | @conscious__genetics @conscious_genetics2.0 Support: • Substrat: @panova25.de de / @living_roots_pro (Living Soil in Bestform!) @cannacommunity.deutschland420 @cannacommunity.deutschland @cannacommunity.germany #LivingSoil #Blütetag11 #StretchPhase #Komposttee #Zapplez20 OreoZMilkshake ZValley OrganicGrowing CannabisCommunity GrowUpdate Bodenleben NoTill BioAnbau

Week 2 went well they are progressing normally. A#3 is a bit smaller than the rest but not surprising being that it sprouted with the shell fully attached and the other 2 had a nearly 4 day headstart. I'm happy she made it and was able to break through the shell. It seems adding saliva to it did the trick. Feeding schedule has been poor due to my busy schedule, I've feed them twice this week both times I gave them each 1/3 of a gallon that was mixed with 1/4 tsp each of general hydroponics floramicro, micro, and 1/8 tsp bloom and 2 ounces of Vermis Terra. 18/6 ls, 84°/43% dt, 73°/53%nt, 6.3-6.5 ph

Grow is looking very bushy. Raised the light up about 6". This is a 60 dsy strain. So we have about 4 weeks left in the flower process. Interested in what the roots will look like.

The bud's are not like I wanted it because the room temperature more than 34 degrees 4 weeks ago I think 2 0r 3 weeks flowering to harvest

Day 77: nice growth in length Day 82: beginning to see some hairs

As plantas estão em fases diferentes, uma deve estar boa para colher em uma semana , outra talvez duas a três e.a mais nova começa agora a formar os botões. Assim já devo colher uma planta em breve e as duas outras em seguida.

This ladies look absolutely gorgeous and super strong, they're gonna be flipped into flower tomorrow on February 15th when they'll hit the 30th day since they were planted and the first day of flower! As said, I have flipped this ladies into flower on February 15th so now I think we're gonna see a beautiful stretch specially on this 2 plants which are the biggest one in the tent, very nice genetic, cannot wait to see their performance ❤️💛💚👨‍🌾 stay tuned everybody! This is gonna be a beautiful run! ✌️

Dry weight including airy lower buds from 6 plants is roughly about 16-17 oz.

03.07.25. Day 64 Plants are looking good. Due to lack of space and other plants fulling out their relative tents I am going to take these ladies down soon. Even though they can go much longer. Also temperatures are high which is bad as this can lead to terpene being loss. I don't want to but I think it is necessary. Until next time. Peace!

She will be harvested within 24h. 😎

1/25 Week 11 Ripley : Flushing begins with a five gallon flush to move the runoff to under 200ppm and defoliated by pulling almost every leaf on a stem, and god what a bunch there were. This opens the plant and removes those sources of nuets. Going to doing this as quickly as we may so will be monitoring runoff as we go. Tara: Slight Defoliation just trying to keep these leafy SOBs open. Back on Heavy dose of CocoTek and placed in best light I can we just watching the bud growth for how to help this big girl. Will not pick up Peak again until ready to withdraw the CT. Better pics when I can 1/26 Ripley : Second day of flush just keep running water through it till runoff gets low no longer PHing the water, nothing much left in there anyway. Fading really showing now Tara -Zilla : She likes the nuet and light change buds really building now Not getting any taller 1/27 New pics of Ripley she is getting so damn frosty in flush Tara building buds very quickly 1/28 Continuing flush on Ripley, she will be harvested in two days, its fast but we need the space. Tara no changes except more buds 1/30 Ripley removed from tent for harvest. Opened up Tara's binds. Tara now the Queen of all she surveys... All hail Queen Tara The Beast ! 😜 *****RIPLEY HARVEST DAY !!!!! ***** Pics up top Wet weight - 1,140 grams 40.7 Ounces Just looking at it we be lucky to only lose 75% in dry but still not bad! Not a pleasant job trimming - LOTS of leaves UPDATE 261 grams dry, yeah took a beating on the dry but expected it.
