We are in the 16th day and these babies are developing very quickly.

1/21: I rotated the edge plants and foliar fed with big bloom a few times today. 1/22: I fed them about 3/4 gallon each after top-dressing their pots with a heaping tablespoon of happy frog cavern culture( bat and seabird guano). That will make some P and K available to them over the next 2 weeks as they begin to flower. Aside from that, I went with full strength veg nutes because I'm still seeing some yellowing and som cal-mag deficiencies. I also added some more liquid molasses. They're gonna need the energy as they start their stretch. I foliar fed a few times throughout the day with big bloom. 1/23: EXPLOSIVE GROWTH last night...love it...everybody is stretching...pretty sure the 14/10 photoperiod is working!! I foliar fed with big bloom a few times today. 1/24: These girls look particularly sativa in leaf shape and plant structure. The one that ignored my FIM job has the typical pyramidal/coniferous shape. I'll probably tie her main down tonight or tomorrow to encourage the lowers to gain some altitude. 1/25: I tied down the mains of both of them today, then watered with about a half-gallon including cal-mag, humic acid, bembe, armor si, and signal. 1/26: Tied down more branches and raised the lights a few inches. 1/27: No pistils yet on either of these two... That's it for week 5-

this grow stretched a t least an extra week my last 2 grows were ripe in 8 weeks .There re no hermi flowers and its going to be at minimum 9 weeks mabe 10 to get ripe .dont know why it stretched into week 6 of flower when its normally 4 weeks stretching the buds are now getting filled in and solid just have to wait i guess

Day 64, 12.06.2024 Today marks the start of week 10. I just saw that some of the leafs of Erika I are clawing upwards. I double checked the light distance to the canope which seems to be fine at around 30cm. I watered yesterday. As over watering might be the culprit as well I will watch closely wether it gets better during the next 24h. However, as we are approaching the finishing line I will not put too much effort in this issue. Day 65, 13.06.2024 Another round of drinks is about to be served. As Erika I is tacoing (edges of the leafs are facing towards the light) I went into analysis: It could be a) lights: after checking the distance again I an rule that out. Also the other plant does not show any clawing symptoms. b) underwatering: I gave 500ml extra water yesterday in the morning in hopes of recovery by afternoon. But no sign of relaxation so I ruled out that as well. c) overwatering: hard to believe as I only water 15% of the pot volume every other day and there is no drain d) over fertilization: Thats a point - I gave both plants the exact same amount of nutrition during grow. I think this plant might have had enough for a while. Because of d) I decided to not give Erika I any fertilizers today (she also did not show signs of low nutrition in the past). However, I will water both and keep an eye on them. No reason for panic though I guess. Also: Being on the final lap towards harvest I recognized quite a lot of the pistils are getting orange. I would say currently over all buds around 50-60% of the pistils are orange. I will wait until ~90% of them are orange and then take a look at the trichomes, where I aim for 80/20 ratio (cloudy to amber). Day 66, 14.06.2024 No action today. Day 67, 15.06.2024 Today I will water and feed again - providing 4/4/4 Grow/Bloom/TopMax + 1,2ml CalMag to Erika II. For Erika I I am still waiting for the leafs to un-taco - but until now there is no sign of it. This is the last official week with nutrients anyway so maybe Erika I already had her last meal, but without realizing 😂 Tacoing did not went away. Didn't really change at all actually. So they both get water & nutes. Next time I might skip nutes on Erika I. Amount of water: ~600ml each Day 68, 16.06.2024 No action on the plants today. Revised my timing and plans: - BioBizz nutrient schedule is made for roughly 10 weeks of flowering with flushing instructions on the second to last week and harvest on the last week - assuming the Erikas started flowering in their 3rd week that leaves me with facing the 8th flowering week up (which is also the last week they should get nutrition) right ahead - Decision: will give them 3 times nutrients over the next 1 week. Then I will stop giving them nutrients and start flushing every other day (water then until water comes out below the pots). - I assume/hope I will flush for at least one week until it is time for harvest This period of the grow is unexpectedly exciting! I do not have any experience from other grows but until now I think it went quite good. There were no pests, no big time nutrient deficiencies, etc. and the buds look big and firm (at least from what I can tell anyway). Day 69, 17.06.2024 - A round of drinks to the ladies: The usual 4/4/4 Grow/Bloom/TopMax in 600ml of water each. Will NOT skip nutes on Erika I. - Humidity is starting to pose a problem again: During night time the humidity does not go below 68% for 6 hours. I surely hope this is not a problem - but I do not have any other choice: there is high humidity currently outside (lots of rain & warm weather). I will hope for the best I guess. - removed 3 more leafs Day 70, 18.06.2024 No action today but to experience high humidity (~69%) without being able to do something about that 😢 This concludes week 10. The breeder states this strain is ready for harvest after 11 weeks. Well.. I guess I am about to find out.

Die topf pflanze wurde von 4L in einen 10 L stoff topf umgepflanzt.

Última Semana de Crecimiento, ya cambió ahora el fotooeriodo a 12/12 y que empiece la fiesta. Subí un pelin el juicio Grow de Advanced nutrients para que arreen el último estirón. Hice un mix de podas desde la típica apical a la fim y algún lst , os iré enseñando más imágenes pero en las fotos ya se pueden apreciar. Estos clones me están sorprendiendo están estirando genial y son bastante resistentes hasta ahora no hubo ninguna plaga. La potencia del foco actualmente está funcionando a un 50% , y ya está semana que viene empezaré aplicar abonos como si fuese floración. La semana que viene volveré actualizar , la verdad que estoy pasándolo muy bien con estos 2 proyectos. Buenos humos familia 💨💨💨

Straight into flower with no issues. Currently on day 16 of flower, this strain has a flowering time of around 63-70 days. I top dressed a couple of days ago with some 2-8-10. This living soil really does do all the hard work, so easy, no stress🤫 She is enjoying life and supping water for fun, irrigation has been ramped up.

I originally had applied to Green House Seed Co.'s Taste of the USA Contest here on Grow Diaries. Turns out I was ineligible but the good folks at GHS still had the big hearts to send me seeds anyway. So big ups to them for hooking this grower up. Welcome to the Sea of Fire 🔥 For this grow were using the Dark Phoenix seeds that GHS sent to me to create a Sea of Green. I've got 8 plants in 8 1L pots. I've decided to use Black Swallow's living soil for this grow so we won't need to add anything but water for the first 3 weeks or so. Our goal for this grow is to have these girls ready for harvest in about 20 weeks which will bring us to the beginning of November 2021. If all goes according to plan these firey buds should be filling my friends stockings this Christmas.

Hello. This is the end of week 4 and the beginning of week 5 of flowering. I got my 2 long and narrow paper bags out. The ones the french bread are in at the store. The ones with the long plastic window in them. I went to the male plant, that I have in a different greenhouse, and got some of the open flowers and pollen inside the paper bags. This is a good male. It has lots of flowers, not many leaves, is not too tall, and is good smelling with the "rub the stem and smell your fingers" test. And the smell stays on my fingers for a few minutes, not disappearing in a few seconds. Careful not to dump out the pollen I slid the bag over the buds I pick out. I pinched the bag around the branch and held it with a clothes peg. I gently shoock the bag to get the pollen to each flower pistil. When I closed up for the night I shoock up the bag again. I gently took the bags off the next morning, careful not to spray pollen all over the place, then went a got some more pollen for the next plants. and repeated for all 6 plants. Got some yellowing of some of the older leaves. This is sort of self pruning to me, but I will add some extra nitrogen next time to slow the yellowing. I've seen a few fungus gnats around, but nothing to worry about. Ok. The Adventure Goes On. Be Great. Chuck

End of Blooming.. Time to flushing..

Extrema producción de tricomas de esta variedad! Gran parte de los frutos lo usaré para extraer rosin, su resina se ve ideal para este propósito. Fragancia exquisita a ponche de fruta dulce, con notas ácidas y un fondo de especias. Como mencioné anteriormente dejaré la parte de la reseña de efectos, sabores y sensaciones para cuando los cogollos estén secos y curados, por ahora solo puedo apreciar lo que mi vista y olfato me permiten captar. Totalmente conforme por la calidad de estas flores y agradecido de los amigos de Sweet Seeds por la confianza. Será hasta la cata entonces, buenos humos!

3/29 - flush day. I'm not sure if I should keep this one going or if I should plan to harvest at the end of this week...she doesn't have much amber, maybe 1%. Lots of cloudy and some clear. I'm tempted to let her run until Runtz is ready but I think I might have a week discrepancy between the two. 2L distilled water 5.9pH 69.5 *F 3/31 - feeding, getting close to finished I think. I'm going to try to harvest at mostly milky 3L distilled water 6.0pH 70*F 475ppm Bloom 2.99g Kelp 0.67g Yucca 0.9g Cane Molasses 1.5g Amino Acids 1.05g Enzymes 0.28g Real Grows Recharge 0.2g 4/3 - feeding day. Terps are still 30-40% clear with very little amber so I'm going to let her run some more. First time giving Terpinator so I'm curious if that will make any sort of difference this late in the game. 2L distilled water 6.0pH 71*F 110ppm RAW Cane Molasses 0.71g Terpinator 25ml (too much...oops) Great White 1.04g Real Grows Recharge 0.11g

Day 1 - repotting and watering with nutrients for 1st time

what do they say about different strains on the same RES, in the same pot??? welp, here goes nothing... Last time I saw this waterfarm I was still a teenager. Ran it in a closet with two 4ft flouro shop lights either side going vertically upward like the letter "A". Had two BIG ASS plants roughly 4ft tall in it side by side going STRONG! Healthy asf, huge ass healthy leaves, some 13 fingered. Flipped em and turned out BOTH were male... Been toying with the idea of doing it again... So what the hell... Here goes, 2 Girls 1 Cup or "pot"... One Herbies Godzilla Cookies Auto and one Fastbuds Wedding Glue Auto. Current setup: -36x36x60 tent -"1000w" led light (130w from the wall) -4in extraction fan/scrubber -20+ yr old GHE Waterfarm fitted with ice probe w/ controller and PLENTY of insulation around RES. -Multiple circulation fans -Taotronics humidifier Stay tuned to watch me fuck this up too 🤣 *Sow'd em both in organic peat pellets after a 24hr soak. Getting them acclimated to their new home early. Doing environment tests and dialing it in with the new to me ice probe, and the change to hydro versus soil plants that were in there. Will be more moisture in the air until a canopy covers my balls with the evaporation from the light. **lookey lookey, BOTH have come to life and are making way to the surface. Not long and they'll be in their new "cup". Last update on germination week as once they pop we start counting I suppose.

She's made it! Harvesting before any more degrading happens. Worried I screwed her by letting her go without water, but she seems pretty vigorous. Here's to hoping the dry goes well, got her in a tent that's properly vented and has a fan inside blowing air underneath the canopy (not at the plant itself). Its kept between .78 kPa and .9 kPa VPD wise. Hopefully it has enough air exchange that mold won't be a problem. Check back for updates on how she's looking through the dry! I will also add more pictures when she is trimmed. Can't wait to see her buds then.

Day 27 today plants look ready to stretch fully Into flower. Or at least I hope so. They don't look so healthy , I have changed soil which I'm already regretting. Today and top dressed each plant with 10g each of Greenhouse feed bio bloom.
