This week has been a good one all round. The sun has been beaming down all day for days and I still due to continue for a while. The gorilla 🦍 has now started to get to a nice bushy size, unfortunately outgrowing the original tent position. After the mistake I made with the Rhino Ryder I grew by taking the bold move to leave permanently in the elements, the cold temps at night really slowed bud production. I have had to improvise and make a shoddy attempt at lifting the tent to allow the room needed.

Giorno 1 bene ragazzi dopo la prima settimana di fioritura: posso dire di essere veramente contento di come stiano crescendo e di come hanno reagito alle tecniche che ho usato su di loro, sono veramente mostruose!! Sicuramente le piante più grosse che abbia mai fatto, ora procediamo la fioritura giorno per giorno con calma e continuando a curarla e sperare in una fioritura bella ghiacciata😁, annaffiata con 2,5L di acqua Giorno 7 annaffiata con 2,5L di acqua

Week has been good besides me accidentally snapping my main cola off of my one plant while doing some additional LST. Had to stake a couple of them because of a storm and they didn't seem rooted that well apparently. But all and all decent.

Que pasa familia, vamos con la segunda semana de floración de estas Tropicana Cookies Fast Flowering, de FastBuds. Vamos al lío , las 3 plantas se colocaron en macetas de 7 litros definitivamente. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 21/24 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Ir van creciendo y no llevan ni mal ritmo ni mal color, veremos como avanzan las próximas semanas y como van formándose las flores.

Hello everyone 😊 Week 22 = harvest week. Just cut the plant and she's hung up to dry. The plan was to keep the plant whole but I decided, due to my injured elbow, it would be smarter to just use separate branches. More lightweight buds to move around haha. I also splitted the stem in the final 5 days. Don't know if it will have some effect. I didn't wanted to take the risk for longer since I don't have a microscope. She flowered for 10,5 weeks so I guess she was done. I cut away al the leaves that had brown or crispy leaves/tips. The other ones I left. Also maximum branch lengths to slow down the drying process. Last year the buds were dry too quick. I hope to leave them hanging for 10 to 14 days now with a more controlled process . It's the first time im trying this technique. I will keep the airflow on point to avoid bad conditions. The room temperature is around 18° Celsius I guess. Average room humidity. I inspected the buds well and I think this is a good year 😊 no mold, lots of brown pistils and pretty compact. I flushed for 3 weeks so no chance on bad taste I guess. One minor thing : still some popcornbuds. Discovered them a bit too late after I already removed some others a few weeks prior. Minor mistake. The Harvest report will follow during November. Gonna let them dry well before testing. Thx to everyone who followed along with this round. I had some good advice and I learned a lot of good stuff. See u in 4 weeks for smoke report. Adios😉

Some yellowing leaves not sure if it's it's starting to fade or it's nutrient burn or a ph problem,...🤔I will figure it out...🙄

The girls stretched like crazy. The blue city is over 90 inches tall. The blueberry cupcake is growing almost perfect . The pineapple muffin on the other hand, she completely snapped in half. I’m not quite sure if she’s going to make it I chopped off two of the branches that were completely broken, and I tried to mend the others. In the smaller 15 gallons, I have pineapple chunk and the sour diesel both of which are 6 feet tall and definitely outgrew their pots. They look healthy and nice and I have all the girls a nice re amend with 444 and uprise bloom. I also added a little Kashi blend to to help break down the amendments because I ran out of compost. I did build the greenhouse, but the plants are so tall. I’m going to have to raise the greenhouse at a minimum of 30 inches. Definitely need to do it because the autos although they look great there is mold on the inside of some of the buds. Because I’m not there every day I’m kind of slacking, but I’m really gonna try not to have any mold on the big girls. I just have to get the top of the greenhouse on in the next two weeks before the buds really start to set.

9/27 She made it through the rain! Looking great in the sunshine. I gotta bring the loupe over again. It's smelling really strong and it looks like most of the pistols have changed color. If I wasn't losing more to damage I'd leave it out longer. It will still be a couole days probably because I need to put away what's hanging and make room. This has been one crazy year. Forty degree temp swings. Crazy year and even crazier pot. Can't wait to try them all! EDIT: I've been trying like hell to update this thing. I've been working my balls off. I ALMOST took the last pink kush. I have a video i'm trying to upload on my computer because I can't even update ANYTHING on my phone. Boy this years weed came out incredible! I've been working hard but as soon as I have a second to myself and get everything at least inside i'll finish the harvest and smoke reports and give some good pics/videos.

Bueno, había subido las fotos y comentarios de la semana esta, pero lo hice por la app y no lo guardó. En fin, venía con problemas de PH, que de está bajando mucho. Algunas hojas se vieron afectadas, pero por shors van bien. Ya corregí los problemas de PH pero con bicarbonato de sodio, ya que no conseguí hidróxido de potasio. Así que tengo que corregirlo todos los días. De todos modos ya estoy muy avanzado en flora, así que voy a pasar a Overdrive, ya que supongo que el PH se desregulaba porque el Big bud tenía.mucho tiempo guardado, pero ya abierto. Voy a seguir monitoreando

The weather was better this week and the plant grew well :) It clearly tilts towards the window to catch the light. Day 13 picture is missing because I was not at home.

Plan to harvest on Sunday thats day 60 and I spotted a little pm on a few of the lowers so its time to cut. Added flora clean Sunday will go straight water today. Can't wait. So far on my strain hunt I'm gonna retire the mango and headband (cause I've had these genetics for a year) the enemy's dream because it's small and I didnt take clones in time and I'm on the fence about the Skywalker so ill wait til I give it one more shot indoors and once outside. And I'm on the fence about the white widow since I've had it before. Gotta make some hard choices especially if I get that order in to seedsman before the sale ends. Next grow will be: Alaskan Purple Gelato og Do-si-Do Bruce Banger Runts Skywalker og White Widow Amnesia Haze Followed by the same strains outdoor. I'm thinkn about ordering seedsman 3 new 420 strains and sum moonbow or moonboots any thoughts?

Fast version B is doing good. She had a solution change today. She us just vegging along. No issues at the moment.

I've been defoliating slowly trying to keep them small due to a house inspection coming up. Once that's out the way I'll put them in bigger pots then switch to flower. They all outgrew the mutated start and are looking good.

Die Woche war schonmal wieder etwas mehr Sonne. Die GorillaAuto ist die letzte der drei Ladys aus dem Report. Ich denke das sie noch 1 - 1½ Wochen stehen wird bis sie auch zum trocknen aufgehangen wird. Die Trichome sind ca 20%milchig, 75%klar und 5%amber. Die Fanleaves werden auch langsam heller und gehen ins herbstliche. Gegossen wird nur noch mit Wasser wenn der Topf leichter wird. An heißen Tagen waren es teilweise zwei mal täglich. Hoffentlich überlebt sie die letzten Tage ohne schlimmere wettereinflüsse🍀 Vielen Dank fürs reinschauen 💚

Most of my autos in photos were put to pop nearly fifteen days ago. Some of it has been slow.But it's okay because they're gonna pick up soon.

Start of week 6 of flower for Kalini Asia Gave her another defoliation just stuff that was covering bud sights. Still getting fed everyday with bottom feeding, this week i did banana peel water with extra cal-mag added too. Going back to water only after she gets another feed of Bio Enhancer.

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

Plant therapy had been amazing. Winter is my hardest time of the year. I actually usually use a supplementary light during the winter to help with my mood and I wonder if being around the LEDs has any similar positive effects. I know the nuturing and process of growing has been a great practice of patience and almost meditative for me. Plants are friends. I believe the plants are well. I have a microscope to keep my eyes on trichomes maturity. I hope they all end around the same time. I would like to chop/dry them together in the tent. Thanks for everyone who has come on this journey with me so far.
