A great week for the girls, started with some defoliating after figuring out where our net would be. Mostly the lower leaves and lowest sets of bud sites that would be popcorns or larf later. Also took a couple larger fan leaves to open them up for the light, and tied down the freshly healed topped main stems to even out the canopy. The diary was extended 2 days (and our diaries are late lol, birthdays) as we are flipping on the first of July, the net is around 70% full or more as of dropping it and tucking some branches. I'll probably shift them slightly, they'll be in the same spots but moved to give Blue Dream some extra tucking space. She's Sativa dominant and likely to stretch the most along side Apex and possible Citradellic Sunset but the journal's i've seen her stretch wasn't as severe lol. With extra tucking space, and being next to the taller hybrids it should help keep the right side canopy balanced. Both sides have their own 4x4 light. Bud Ignitor has been added on the last day. We will continue defoliation for the first two weeks of flower focusing on the under side of the canopy where it's shaded, and removing any suckers we find. There were signs of a Ph imbalance on Citradellic Sunset which is my own error, tap water Ph vs Nutrient Ph, not in soil anymore! lol But she has recovered happily and is growing vigorously. Still no new TDS meter so we stick close to the feeding schedule from Advanced Nutrients with some tweaks. We feed twice a week, Feed/Feed/Water. So instead of the full 4ml of base nutes we use 3ml each watering and they seem happier. 2ml of the additives but most are only added once a week except for Sensi Cal-Mag, Bud Candy and now Bud Ignitor (we also will use Big Bud, Nirvana and Overdrive twice a week). The final watering is PHd to be the same as the feed watering. Max strength base nutes have always burned the tips of my plants, I almost backed off to 2ml of base nutes twice a week as 3ml gave slight tip burn to the smaller Say Less and White Wedding but they have adjusted to it and new growth is healthy. I will most likely edge up to 3ml more gradually next grow. We are still new to scrog but I feel we are off to a better start this round, last time the net was completely full and I don't want a second net.

Day 8, 9-18-24: they're seeming to shoot up rather quickly and that's wonderful! I can't wait Day 10, 9-20-24: They are starting to look like they're supposed to instead of babies! I got them level with each other so the ppfd should be more uniform. It's rained a couple of days this week so the humidity jumped some, but mostly everything is good Day 11, 9-21-24: they are doing amazing. They are starting to spread out nicely! Day 12, 9-22-24: They are really doing well! I had time to set up the camera this morning before work. That's a 4th gen purple star killer clone next to it. Day 13, 9-23-24: they keep getting noticeably bigger! Day 14, 9-24-24: they're growing nicely and starting to branch out. They have also grown pretty thick

Week 7 – Canopy-Kontrolle & Verdichtung Diese Woche merkt man deutlich: Der Stretch ist vorbei. Jetzt geht es nur noch um Blütenmasse. Die Struktur steht. Jetzt wird verdichtet. ⸻ 🌿 Entwicklung der Sorten Die Early Skunk hat sichtbar aufgeholt und fügt sich jetzt viel harmonischer ins Gesamtbild ein. Die Big Bud bleibt zwar optisch dominant, aber durch aktives Angleichen der Höhe wirkt das Zelt jetzt deutlich homogener. Bei Pure Power Plant und Somango XL habe ich die Töpfe erhöht, um ein gleichmäßiges Canopy zu erreichen. Ergebnis: • bessere Lichtverteilung • weniger Hotspots • gleichmäßigere Bud-Entwicklung • saubere Oberkante SoG zahlt sich jetzt richtig aus. ⸻ 💡 Licht Die Lampe wurde in dieser Woche auf 90 % erhöht. Abstand unverändert. Die Pflanzen reagieren stabil: • keine Lichtverbrennungen • keine Bleaching-Anzeichen • kräftige Blütenbildung Man sieht deutlich, dass die Energie jetzt komplett in die Buds geht. ⸻ 🌸 Blütenstatus • Buds beginnen dichter zu werden • Internodien schließen sich • erste leichte Harzbildung sichtbar • Pistillen weiterhin frisch und weiß Die Big Bud zeigt lange, gestapelte Colas. Die anderen Sorten bauen kompaktere, rundere Blüten auf. ⸻ Klima Die reduzierte Luftfeuchtigkeit zahlt sich aus. Das Blätterdach ist dichter geworden, aber die Luftzirkulation scheint zu passen. Keine Anzeichen von Feuchtigkeitsstress. ⸻ 📊 Fazit Woche 7 • Canopy aktiv ausgeglichen • Licht fast am Maximum • Stretch abgeschlossen • Bud-Stacking läuft • Struktur sauber kontrolliert Ab jetzt geht es in die Phase, wo Gewicht und Harz entscheiden. Man sieht: Das ist kein Zufallsgrow. Das ist Planung + Kontrolle.

Ich habe meinen Ladies eine neue Wohnung gesponsert. Von 5.6L auf 11,0L. Ich glaube, das wird ihnen gefallen. In den nächsten Tagen schicke ich sie dann in die Blßte. Ansonsten ist alles gut. Einige Klone fßr einen Freund habe ich noch versucht..... bin gespannt, ob die gewurzelt haben.

I came back from holidays to realize that I overwatered my plant and mismanaged the aeration and ventilation of the box. The plants grew so much that the box got too full. I had to prune the top of the moby dick that was touching the lamp. Most plants started to loose some leaves from the bottom. Not a big deal, I was planning on defoliating anyway. Worse, because of the lack of airflow, the plants are super flimsy and i broke a few stems haha. On the video above you can see the repair i've attempted. I bought two more ventilator to improve airflow and attached and repositioned the stems thanks to the bamboo sticks.

As with a lot of things in life, the harvest did not go as originally planned. I stated in my last entry in week 16, that I was going to continue the flush till I remembered and tried the dried, broken branch of C1. So I decided to harvest the plants on October 29th. Their last watering/feeding/flush was done on 10/27/21. I already had plans to take a day trip to see a MLS fútbol ⚽️ game I had tickets for on Saturday, 10/30/21; then I didn’t think parents would want to bring their kids near a house that wreaked of weed on Halloween, so not the 31st either. Then I had an appointment in the afternoon on Monday, and I didn’t want to get a late start, so not on 11/1/21 either. My wife had an appointment on Tuesday morning. Fortunately, her appointment was over by noon, so I got the chance to finally start the harvest on November 2nd. I turned off the lights halfway through the 12 hour light schedule on Sunday morning (10/31), so my ladies received varying periods of darkness before the harvest was begun. I harvested one plant per day for three days beginning 11/2/21. The day I started the harvest, I took all three plants outside for some pictures and to make a short video before cutting them up. The extended darkness before harvest made all three plants change their colors and become absolutely beautiful! I was very pleased with their final presentation. 02 Nov 2021 - C1 C1 was sitting in complete darkness for just under 48 hours when I took her outside to chop her up. Her buds were large, mixed with purples, blues, and pink. The trichomes glistened in the overcast sunlight and covered every bud like a protective blanket. I took some pictures of her by herself before starting her destruction. I started by snipping her branches and laid them out on a foil covered cookie sheet. Then I took them inside and started trimming, trimming, and trimming. Her buds are very dense and super sticky! The smell is absolutely divine! It took several hours to complete the trimming, and once I was done I had no desire to continue with the next plant. After I finished trimming all of C1’s buds, I got my wet weight on the branches before hanging them up to dry. 03 Nov 2021 - C2 C2 sat in complete darkness for nearly 72 hours before I took her out to harvest her flowers. The sun was shining, but it was windy and cold. I took some pictures of her in the sunlight and she was marvelous! Deep purples, with some pink edges mixed with some green in her foliage. She was truly a sight to behold. Then I cut her up into pieces. Wonderful, tight bud structure. Very dense. Trichomes a plenty and glistening! I truly love growing weed. My house by this time is absolutely saturated with the sweet, berry, fruity scent of these wonderful buds. You might think it unpleasant, but it wasn’t. I trimmed C2 for a long while because my hands are sore from two days of scissor snips and carefully holding and manipulating branches of sweet smelling, beautiful bud. The things we do for frosty buds! Once I finished trimming I got the wet weight and hung it up to dry along with C1. 04 Nov 2021 - C3 C3 sat in darkness for approximately 96 hours before finally getting harvested. It had been over a week since she had any water, and she was still beautiful and vibrant! The weather was not being friendly when I took her outside to cut her up. It started to rain lightly, so I wasn’t able to get any pictures of her before chopping her up. Sad, I know. I was in such a hurry to beat the downpour that I didn’t even think about it till it was too late. 🤷‍♂️ Oh well. As with the other two; I cut off her branches and laid them out neatly on a foil covered cookie sheet and took them in to start the trimming. As you may well imagine, I was sick and tired of trimming by this time, but I took my time to make sure that they were done well. Once done; I got my wet trimmed weight and hung them up to dry. Fast forward 4 days. 08 Nov 2021 C1 had been hanging to dry for 6 days, which is how long their mother took to dry. However, it was the end of summer when she was drying, and the relative humidity was between 50-60%. November is different! The humidity in my grow tent was very low at 39%, and not only was C1 super dry, but both C2 and C3 were also dry and ready for curing. Starting with C1, I took each plant out of the tent and got the dry weight on the branches for direct comparison to the wet weight before hanging to dry. Then I separated the buds from the branches and weighed the loose bud to get the actual smokeable harvest weight. I hope you all followed that. Here’s how all the weights turned out by plant. C1 - Wet trimmed weight: 8.566 oz. Dry trimmed weight: 2.214 oz. Actual harvest weight: 1.826 oz. C2 - Wet trimmed weight: 8.332 oz. Dry trimmed weight: 2.392 oz. Actual harvest weight: 1.992 oz. C3 - Wet trimmed weight: 8.750 oz. Dry trimmed weight: 2.763 oz. Actual harvest weight: 2.312 oz. Blueberry Muffin Trio: Hanging wet weight: 25.648 oz. Complete harvest weight: 6.130 oz. I am very happy with how this grow turned out! This Trio represent the only clones that I have ever been able to take root, and made it possible to get 4 complete grows from 1 plant. This grow was a success at the beginning, and with the experience I gained from my first three plants, the entire grow was wonderful! I hope you all have enjoyed this journey with me. Happy growing everyone!!

Everything seems to be going great so far! I’m extremely happy with this grow, lots of new trichomes have shown up this week and the smell is still strong. She’s adapted to the change in lighting really well. I’m still removing some excess leaves from time to time to avoid mold growing. Otherwise no problems this week!

The Morello Cherries Auto has developed well in the last 10 days. My humidity was a little too low, but the plant is slowly starting to develop an aroma. It’s not very strong yet, but quite interesting—I’ll go into it further as the plant progresses. It shows initial signs of phosphorus deficiency. I might look for some organic phosphorus fertiliser. I still have some Biobizz Biobloom, which I could use sparingly, but I’d prefer to avoid adding too much nitrogen. Let’s see how it continues to develop.

Week 3 begins for DS and MD ladies. All four are developing nice bud sites, but the plants have not stretched as much as I was expecting they would by now. Thank you to Kaoritracy from Mars-Hydro for the TSW2000 light, I am very happy with it's performance. Thanks for stopping by growfessors 👽🌳💚

420FASTBUDS ORT2109 WEEK 5 The two of these tall ladies are still growi g upward and upward. Not sure they got the memo to slow down a little but over all no complaints they're very healthy and happy. One is more bushy and less spacing between branches but both show no issues especially when it comes to feeding. I upped the GH Flora series 3 part. The Micro and Bloom are increasing and Gro is staying the same. I also increase the volume to 1-2liters every 3days give or take as before was 16oz per feed. Happy Growing

Seguimos con el engorde de los cogollos. Actualemente han formado ya unos gollos bien duros. Olor especial y muy agradable. Parece ser que los 220W estan aportando lo necesario para engordar sin sufrir de un exceso lumĂ­nico, por norma general con 300W me suele salir en las copas , cogollos apicales, algo de albinismo por lo qu entiendo que tb frena algo el engorde. Sin albinismo parece ser que continuan engordando y puede que saque lo mismo o muy parecido. Cultivo en un armario de 74x74 con lo que podria ser sufiiciente con 220W. Lo veremos mas adelante. La seta me saliĂł en una de las macetas, no mide mas de 1ctm. xd vino y se fue ContinuarĂĄ
