6.0 g MegaCrop / 4 L VPD is set at 23 C and 58 % rh Light is at 22 inches and lowering a inch daily Thursday, April 9 Flower Day 4 Im seeing a little bit of hungriness out of Black Sugar 2 and one of its clones. Its either that or beginning of tip burn. I dont think its tip burn though. 6.0 g MegaCrop / 4 L VPD is set at 23 C and 58 % rh Light is at 22 inches and lowering Sunday, April 12 Flower Day 7 To pinch new shoots in flower, or not? That is my question. I have been pinching them off on the clones and leaving them on the Mommas and Blue Gelatos. Whats your thoughts?

25/11 Day 73 already and starting another week (week 4 since I changed the photoperiod); budlets are not completely formed but still look like more of preflowers. She continues to stretch, she's growing 4-5 cm per day, a complete beast. I think she could be stretching more before the aspect of the preflowe/budlets cahnge much. Comparatively with the pictures of other Grinspoon's growers, the flowering stage is going on very slowly...well I thought the same when she was at vegetative stage, I saw everybody's Grinspoon specimen was much bigger and much sooner than the one of mine, but in the end her growth has been so big that I 'd have liked better she hadn't grown that much. She's entirely taken over the grow room! The light spectrum I use does not promote much stretching per se, as I've seen it on many other hybrid strains in the last two and a half years since I have this system. It's a 80cm*80cm*160 cm grow box (Darkbox) and so far I think the environment for the plant is, in general, let's say fine (except perhaps the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter). Humidity is a little high, becuase my place is humid and I don't specailly control it but I'd guess it is roughly 60% HR throughout the year. Being that said, I blame this stretching entirely to her genes and yes, my lack of caution to have prevented all this enormous growth from happening. Really I didn't want to regret later, of not having the size of the plant I wanted and also for not knowing how much she would stretch (I wouldn't have thought this much) I let her grow more than I should have. But one learns from his mistakes and by growing new strains, every strain has different phenos and one never knows which is destined to one's plant. The fertigation solution is now 0.5 mL/L Pro-Silicate; 1,3 mL/L Cal-Max; 0,4 g/L Flower Power Bloom fertilizer at pH 6.1-6.2, EC is 1.35 mS/cm and I raised the fertigation volume to 6L keeping the frequency. Day 74 (26(11) she keeps on stretching, I'm seeing another way to raise the lights the maximum I can, I see the budlets forming more definitely so I don't think she'll be stretching much longer, perhaps and luckily this week she stops doing it. Meantime all I can do is keeping the tallest shoots out of the line of the led lights to prevent bleaching of the leaves or the budlets being burnt. God help me with this. I'll post some pics tomorrow if I have more time. My plants do take more than 60% of my free time at home (but I <3 growing marijuana). Day 75 (27/11) I used a few hooks from the bathtub's curtain to hold the growlights and managed to raise them a precious distance. Day 76 (28/11/2019) i jumped off the bed to assess the sitaution and evertyhing was normal, a big blade burned it tip for proximity to a led light, but the bud tips seem no to be damaged -yet-because of the strong lights/heat. One fertigation (inflow EC 1.35 mS/cm. EC run off 1,5 mS/cm) "en dan ben ik klaar met haar". Day 77 29-11-2019 she keeps growing tall and she's become something almost unmanageable. A couple of shoots have surpassed the lights. If only they won't be burned 🙏 Day 78 (30/11) She seems to be stopping growing. When I saw her I realised extraction fan was gone, fortunately being Saturday I could find a replacement soon. I find that run off pH is 5.3 (collected at the last portion the run-off, 2nd fertigation of the day. Isn't it a little too acidic to leave this issue untreated? Day 79 (01/12) after a reply from @knut at cocoforcannabis.com I am advised not to take in consideration runoff pH but to take care of pH in and EC "in", as for the runoff, just checking EC, because pH varies for the interaction between nutrients and is of zero interest, so I was told. The extractor is working fine and it is a lot more silent than the older one. Last for today, I'd say I'm happy she seems to have completed the stretching phase, although there are a few shoots at scarce centimeters from the ceiling of the box as a consequence. The other shoots are fine, at a reasonably good position from the lights. It was very hard times with these last weeks and the damned stretching. If I had to evaluate the growing difficulty of this strain, I'd say "quite hard" because she's pretty much unmanageable at the stretching phase, unless proper caution measures be taken before it's too late. Day 80 (2/12/2019) To end week 12 (4th week flowering) I see it seems that stretching phase is over so I can breath again. She still may be growing one or two centimeters, that I dunno for sure, but judging from the accelerated rate of stretching I have seen since the last two weeks, it appears that she won't get taller. She's almost tocuhed the ceiling :/ I see a slight swelling of the baby buds, like the calixes that are starting to form.

Great easy grow, took well to led grow and nutrients never needed to step back. Needed support fairly early on in grow. Heavy flowers not massive but I guess loaded with oils and good stuff. No apple smell or taste with these two phenos at all. Both super heavy chem affairs. One however tastes a lot like gorilla glue, it is one of the parents. This cultivar has shot straight to the top of my lists of grow again. It’s pure fire.

I had my photos stored on my cell phone because I had a lot of work. Here where I live is winter. therefore the growth has been very slow in flowering. and almost every day they are cloudy. but we will see her results.

27/02/19 - This one is great, I popped the seed 24hrs after the gelato and this one seems to be developing its leaves a lot faster than the rest, so far really happy with DNA and with mills nutrients, it’s a lot easier to mix and I no longer have to use ph down because once all mixed it’s at a 5.8/5.9. 👌🏻 02/03/19 - Just transplanted all into their final pot, just in time I think as it looked like the roots were starting to circle at the bottoms of the pot, sprinkled half a tea spoon of Mykos on each hole prior to the transplant & fed them 2.5 litres each. I was going to saturate the whole pot but I’ll do that next feeding.

Yo estoy listo para ellas... pero ellas estarán listas ?? 2 semana más y el flush muy emocionado

16.02 First day of the fourth week of flower. Defoliated a little bit again. This time around I’m picking smaller amounts of leaves every day in comparison to one major defoliation on one day. Also I ve added pk booster at 100 ppm.( 0.2 ec) will gradually raise it over the next weeks. Lowering the base nutrients. I think they finally stopped the stretch and they are barely fitting in the tent. I ve added some swirski ulti mite . Predatory mites as prophylactic measure for thrips. I’ve noticed some tiny damage on a couple of leaves. And a couple of larvae.

Photos taken at Day 25: They start to recover and grow again. Sprayed them with Canna Cure to get more healthy leafs. Removed the humidifier. Lets hope they will grow for another week before they go into preflowering. Thats it for now, new pictures and updates will follow within this week. Stay tuned! Update: Day 28: Canna cure did his thing. The leafs start to get greener again. Also my feedings made them grow and recover again. Removed some lower branches and leafs. They are back in the race!

Last couple weeks of bulking up. Still now colour change but still hopeful.

Getting frosty! Can’t wait for my next update gonna upgrade some things in the tent 🏕️!

Week 4 since switch to 12/12 light schedule for flower and now starting g to see the formation of buds and plenty of white pistols developing more rapidly on each branch as well as as started the production of some thricomes and the lollipoping technique and using a scrog net has helped shape the canopy more evenly

Day 70 The plants are in their 10th week and stacking nicely. Buds are dense, frosty, and starting to show that heavy, mature look. Trichomes are cloudy on most parts, and the smell has intensified a lot. Unfortunately, today I noticed a problem: one of the colas showed signs of bud rot (Botrytis). This happened because my exhaust fan (carbon filter system) was off for about 4 hours, which caused humidity to spike inside the tent. I immediately removed the affected bud and cut a bit deeper into the healthy tissue to make sure no rot remains. From now on I’ll be extra careful with airflow and humidity: Keeping RH below 50% Checking the fan setup twice a day Adding extra circulation inside the tent The rest of the plant looks healthy and unaffected, but I’ll monitor closely every day. This is the stage where dense flowers are most vulnerable. Overall, despite this setback, the grow is going well. The harvest window is getting close, and if everything stays clean, it should still be a solid yield.

Esa familia, ya actualizo, estas candy caramelo son una locura, solo hay que ver el color que tienen y la distancia que hay entre nudos. Ya pasan 14 días desde que cambiamos el foco a 12/12, y pronto veremos cómo va escupiendo los brotes de las futuras flores. Sigo controlando el PH que no supera el 6.5 , temperatura con un LED sin problema alguno, humedad entorno al 45%. Poco más por aquí, no olvidéis que abrí más diarios con nuevos proyectos y cambiamos gama de nutrientes, para más, visitarlos. Un saludo fumetillas, hasta la próxima semana.

Day 21 The plant looks more on the sativa side and is already showing a small bud, indicating that it's almost entering the flowering stage. However, there's still a chance that it will grow more in size. That’s why I’m very optimistic that it will still gain some height, if not she will be Chopped down
