Mild flushes last week. Day 54/ Day 1 of Flowering. Fed and light defoliation.

Strain was a great producer. shake: 41.5grams 77.5grams 2.0 grams Total= 121grams FLower: 116.6 112 60.1 57.3 63.7 44 26.1 Total: 479.9grams TOTAL Trim and Flower = 121 + 479.8 = 600.8grams = 21.25oz

This week is SLOW 😭 I’ve soaked the seeds for 24 hours then have placed into a paper towel. Both seeds took! & I will be transferring them into ROOT ROIT from clone x tonight!

Northern lights is ding some bulking. She has a sweet citrus earthy smell. She is growing well and looks like some frosty goodness to come. Thank you Divine Seeds, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g.

slowly introducing nutrients to her. little by little mainly watering at 6.4

1/19: Not much to report today. Got a good look at lemon autos trichomes under a digital microscope. I guess this is just another week of saying "one more week" 😂 1/22: gave lemon auto a good pH balanced water flush, northern lights got some bloom nutrients to help those buds do their thing. Trichomes look mostly cloudy- a few amber on the sugar leaves which means it's only a matter of time! 1/24: lemon auto update: trichomes on some outer buds are amber! Main cold nug looks like it's about 100% cloudy trichomes. Will evaluate tomorrow for possible harvest?!

Week 8 flower and the Gorilla Glue #4 is swelling up nicely and looks like about a week to go, but I’ll probably wait until the Sour Diesel finishes up before I harvest her as I need to dry in this space, the lung room. Lots of frost and thick dense flowers. Very nice colours coming out and the smell is incredible! A few nanners popping out here and there, I’ve plucked a few but it’s late in flower and doubt much will develop from now until the end, if anything at all, definitely not pulling her down because of them. More than likely had the light turned up to high later in flower and was pushing them too much, and that’s why the Sour Diesel is growing a bit foxtail like. Turned the lights down now to 50% and they seem to be happy with that. Still just water through the drip and hand water once a week. Gnats suck and need to take care of them before next grow and do a better job moving forward. These TSW 2000’s from Mars Hydro are awesome and with two of them side by side are more than enough for this space. Blimburn GG#4 is turning out really good and smell is incredible but hard to describe. Thanks for the view!

| Week 6 is finished and we are looking pretty good on Super Orange and Apollo Haze. Terps: ------- Orange has started to fairly loudly emit her incredible, warm, mandarine-candy (no sours, bitters) fumes. The terpinolene is playing tricks on me, never fully grasping the exact fruit or likeness in the profile. A warm, sweet & thick mandarine-syrup mixed into your local humidifier would likely emanate a similar scent. Apollo is trying to dominate the tent, but Orange has taken over with surpisingly intense trichome expression. The fact that the tent smells of her mostly means these terpenes are evaporating at present temperatures. I can either keep the temps stable (my week 6 choice), accept that many sensitive terps escape as they are built, but focus on a relaxed environment for the cultivars; or, I could just drop the temps right now and target high limonene / monoterpene retention (one of the secret sauce Haze effect ingredients). Cool distinctions we can make these days, huh? Apollo still retains a fairly 'rude' veg spice smell. It is detailed, balanced and tuned around an umami like sellerie, and most definitley not fruity. I was already afraid I would suffer another pheno or genetic expression as with 505 Headbanger (no fruit smell besides some citrus, heavy eucalyptus and mint notes, sweet after cure, some pine here and there) I did however happen to crush some trichomes on accident and to my surprise I got a heavy citrus-palette that is almost pure lemon juice. Think of all the citrus fruits you know mixed in a lemon juice cocktail, take a whiff and feel your nostrils burn! She is able to conserve the citrus contents well apparently, so I am hoping for more suprises as she ages and shifts focus and am happy with her state. Auto Cinderella Jack ------ ACJ still is a bit quieter and usually smells like fresh leaves. She unfortunately endured many invisible stress factors, like over-watering or wind & climate events (see those curled up, dry leaf tips?). Those interfered with the HST super-cropping / scrogging timing. As a result, instead of starting her flowering stretch, she turtled up. Every big leaves acts as a cup for growth underneath, she went from relaxed expansion to safety via density. In no way will she not flower happily at some point, but her situational difference decided over success of the training technique employed. Note: This cultivar often has a bushier pheno, but I have seen her do great and she would stretch nicely when -everything- was correct. Nanners: ----- The shocker this week was the discovery of undisputed nanner structures on BOTH SOH and AH. They developed exclusively on lower node branches, where you would usually see isolated bracts / calyxes covered with trichomes and 2 pistils or so. I removed what I could, but mentally, this now puts me in an awkward position. Now, the fun is out. Stress management is everything, forget about maximum plant performance. I wonder why this is. So far, I grew 9 42FB cultivars with zero nanners; and up to this point 5 Mephisto cultivars, out of which 3 produced nanners. But that is not enough data: All Mephisto cultivars displaying nanners have been leaning sharply into the landrace-sativa type. Only one cultivar was assumedly stress-pressured into hermaphroditism (OSHM / Mango, consistent light burn). Perhaps the plants felt their environment was a bit lacking in population density and sensing other females around, 2 cultivars started shedding pollen from their lower structures, leaving most flower-sites ready for actual outside pollination. Or, this is just wishful thinking. We'll see in week 7!

Week 2

It’s Friday, blue skies but a chill petrols the outdoors, amazing how in my car the sun burns and outdoors it hardly keeps me warm when the wind gusts. I am impressed with the amount of growth once again, she continues surprising me, unlike Unknown. I will be using the main brunch as rott that sprout a pair of trees at each nod, I hope she compiles before she goes into flowering, speaking of which, when I watch a lot of the informative videos about MariJane, a lot of growers switch lighting to kick start flowering, I think we here in South Africa we do have people who practice that act, but I feel a lot of us here in South Africa allow the plant to live out all it’s phases, to ensure quality. A lot of people are outdoor growers in our 9months of grow season, winter you can grow, you will only get indica heights whether sativa or hybrid. I cannot wait to showcase this tree when it’s in her last weeks of flowering, I myself will not believe the vision was achieved, growing weed is boring when the tree is in vegetation, not to mention I might encounter some male plants.

Day 29... afternoon very sunny and warm temp 👍 Day 30 damn hot and full of sun 😎👍 Day31 warm weather with sun in the morning, laters cloudy with high humidity 😃 Day32 totally fucked up weather...rain non stop and cloudy 😕😫😩 Day33 same damn weather then yesterday oh lord 😒😠😵 Day34 cloudy start in the day but then sunny weather 😍👍😏

So on 12/14/21 opened tent to find leaves trying to get away from light, TS 3000 is a powerful light, at 24 inches from top of plants at 25% power it caused leaf folding. Adjusted light to 36 inches and dimmed light to 20%. Leaves are turning a darker shade of green and started praying again. Lesson learned know your light or get a watt meter cause 25% was close to 120 watts of LED. 12/15/21watered plants 100ml of water, except one which was still moist. Noticed green coming back strong now the lights at the right height.12/17/21 Plants fully recovered from my light. Looking vibrant green again.12/18/21 Nutrients fed. 12/19/21 plants are growing vigorously now that the conditions are right on.

Update week 2 of Bloom

Seconda settimana di fioritura si è allungata la mia bella. Iniziano a profumare bene...sto notando che i nutrienti di Advance nutrient dati per via fogliare funzionano davvero bene... complimenti anche ad Advanced nutrient

Grape soda, tropical punch, and gasoline. These rock hard flowers were some of the prettiest to watch grow I've ever seen.

Plucked a few leaves that were looking at me funny ;) Not much to do! Smells of sweet berries, after a fresh rainfall.. Smells amazing! Watered with 2.5 gallons of the above listed nutrients, every 5-6 days. (when the soil becomes 95% dry) 10% of the solution watered runs out the bottom of the pot, and is removed with a wet-vacuum.

🗓️ Week 17: 3/23 - 3/29 📆 Week 7 of 12/12 🌄 The plant is starting to go into senescence and presenting some beautiful colors as she begins to fade. 💡 Received new lighting courtesy of Growers Choice. They sent me the ROI-E420 with the Master Controller. First impression is amazing. Looks and feels like very high quality build. The spectrum seems more blue than the 3000k lm301H Kingbrite bars I have been using. The bars are thinner and packed with a lot of diodes, so they do run a little hotter than the KB at full power. I adjusted and now running them at 90%. For now the Kingbrite bars are being used as side lighting dimmed to about 30-35% depending on Grow room temps.

Oggi sono 21 giorni da quando ho messo il seme nella terra. Per non aver mai fatto crescere nessuna pianta in vita mia sono molto soddisfatto. Avevo letto tantissime cose prima di iniziare , e fino ad ora possa dire che più facile farlo che leggerlo, decine di siti tanto regole simili, ma tantissime regole contrapposte dai vari siti. 3 febbraio primo giorno terza settimana passato, solita situazione 4 piantine felici una ancora bloccata. Oggi mi sono divertito a silenziare gli estrattori. E come dicevo più facile farlo direttamente. Oggi fatto un esperimento di lst . La pianta dopo poche ore ha rialzato la testa. Stasera applicherò lst a tutti i piantini. 23 giorno dalla semina Approfitto del sole e della temperatura mite per fargli godere di un giorno di sole. 26 giorno ho alzato la lampada fino ad 80 cm, misurando con un fotometro mi sono reso conto che a quella distanza la mia lampada da 50000 lumen quasi. E quindi ho capito a cose erano dovute le bruciature dei giorni passati. Sto pensando di prendere una lampada meno potente. Però con questi accorgimenti le piante negli ultimi 4 giorni sono raddoppiate se non triplicate

After a long journey, we’ve finally reached harvest time for the SLH x RS11. This strain proved to be tall and resilient, handling the entire cycle with strength. Visual Appeal: As it reached the final stages, it developed beautiful deep red and purple hues, making it a true standout in the tent. While it takes a bit longer to fully mature, the wait is absolutely worth it. Aroma & Terpene Profile: The scent isn’t overwhelmingly strong, but it’s incredibly unique—a blend of lemon and soap, with a fruity sweetness and a funky, almost creamy-gassy undertone. Now onto drying and curing—let’s see how it smokes!

Real flowering started this week. The stretch just started and the crazy bushiness continues. Did some fairly heavy defoliation on the under canopy and select large leaves blocking light to the bud sights.... but controlling the growth is a balance. Trying to keep as much photosynthesis as possible until I can really tell which bud sites will be the real colas. I did a full reservoir swap with flowering nutrients, and a pH balanced water only flush in between (about 18 hours just running pH 5.9 water). Once I put the new nutrient solution in, the plant just shot up. It was spectacular the difference in literally only half a day. I have noticed that a thin coating of something was on the air line of the bubbler and a couple other surfaces. Cleaned it off before the water flush, but still note a very slight film on the top of the fresh nutrient solution. It's a touch worrying but not sure it's an issue. Will watch carefully.
