I have introduced a second bottle of CO2 to pump flowering weeks, I have cut off nutrients completely to get rid of nutes burn, plants are been fed PH water only. For this run I have been using a DIY automated drip system that cost me less than $100, this system can be used to feed up to 10 plants, now I can go way for days without a worry :) if anyone is interested here is my Instagram video: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwm1kO0BTNC/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Stay Lit folks 👩‍🌾🏻

June 7 - We ordered some new lights last week, they are 240w kingbrite samsung lm310h with uv/ir, 3000k, and meanwell drivers. We setup the new room and moved the girls into there. After a bit of LST and a watering (with nutrients) at roughly 7ph, they were ready to go under the 2 new lights and the same SF-1000 we have been using in this grow. The new room is a 12 ft enclosed trailer. I moved everything from the small tent into this. I put clear poly on the walls, floor and ceiling. I put poly on the shelf I am going to be keeping in there as well. I bought 50ft of 6mm mylar and lined the floors, roof and sides with it. I plan to get some reflective tape to seal everything and to cover the wood. I did not get much of a chance to watch temp's today as they it was later in the evening after all was said and done. The inline fan blowing in air from outside. June 8 - 9 AM i checked the plants, they were at 25.2 and 50% RH. Late through the day I had checked and we had gotten up to around 32 degrees. So I moved the inline fan to the closer vent, hooked up to that, and had the air blowing out of the trailer with the inline fan sucking it from above the lights. I then added oscillating fan and had it blowing air on the left side of the room so it would somewhat circulate once I closed the doors. I then checked at about 9pm and we were at 22 degrees. Definitely noticed a decent amount of growth already. I have the lights on a 22/2 cycle as I was worried about the heat at night time. June 9 - Some great growth from the girls, still having problems controlling the temps in the afternoon. I decided to prop the door open a bit to have a constant breeze throughout the day while I am at work. Decided to do some more LST and also a bit of defoliation. I took about 25% of the leaf's that were blocking the new growth as it was getting a bit bunched up. I was then told the leaf's are almost solar panels for them. So from now on I will be trying to just do some tucking unless needed. The leaf's I removed were most of the damaged leaf's, I am not to sure if that makes much of a difference. I gave them a watering with only water as there is a potential I am getting a bit of a nutrient buildup along with the PH problem. Or potentially the reason for the ph problem is nutrient buildup. After watering with A PH of 7 I got some run off and tested it. The smaller plant gave me a PH of about 5.5 where the bigger one is around 5.0. June 10 - Plants are looking happy and showing tons of growth. Seems to be trying to stretch outwards. Not a ton of sign of PH issues showing so potentially getting it under control. Still a bit of damage to previous leaf's but it is what it is! The last few days I have been leaving the door open a bit in order to keep the temps down. I decided to test something and turn the lights off (automatically) at 11AM and back on at 5PM so light schedule has now changed to 18/6 and it seems I may have figured out the issue. We haven't had lots of sun the last couple days so it hasn't been to hard and I have yet to know if it truly fixed the heat issue for now. (I will be looking into a ac unit as well since it typically gets to around 30-35 around here. June 11 - Pulled some of the branches back down and added a few more LST spots. Seems we have a good amount of growth from the smaller plant out of the 2 topped spots. Unfortunately it looks like I fucked up on the bigger plant and only one of the nodes seems to have new growth. I will continue to monitor that but I think I cut the node to low and also to soon. Other then that, the girls are doing great. They seem to be absolutely loving these new lights. I gave them some nutrient water today as well. roughly 3L each. They seem to be A hell of A lot more thirsty under these new lights. June 12 - The girls are doing great , they are still just doing growing away. Lots of progress everyday. I am going to be getting a go-pro so I can set-up a time-lapse for the rest of this grow. I received my new inline fan, I got A ac infinity CLOUDLINE T4 with the temperature humidity controller. I am going to be having one fan pushing fresh air in and one fan pulling out the hot air. I will be doing that tomorrow since I have to work today. June 13 - I ordered another 50ft of mylar and that showed up today. I have decided to remove the shelf and add another 3+ feet to the grow space. So today I installed more poly, mylar, the ac infinity fan. I have it set-up to pump in air if it gets to warm. I am thinking of switching it to the output that way if it gets to hot or to humid I can have that air pulled out of the trailer. Right now my other inline fan is the outtake and I just have it set on full. Overall I think everything is set-up a bit better and more accessible. I will be putting my 2x2 tent in there at the left of the doors so I can have a veg room when these 2 are in flower. I plan to have 4 in veg and 4 in flower for the next grow. Still waiting on JOTI seeds, ordered 3 weeks ago and still have not been shipped. I will be getting those going the moment they arrive. The girls seem to be happy still, did a bit more LST to try to keep everything even, mainly I'm just pulling down on the spots I already have tie wire on.

Final days before the cut! I'm starving the plant, by adding no nutrients. The chlorophyll in the remaining fan leaves has substantially dropped. The glitterying trichomes are densely packed and mostly cloudy. By the beginning of next week, will be the day

24 Jan - 30 Jan Started Flushing on Sunday night (23 Jan) ---- 25 Jan A lot of leaves are starting to die, from all of the plants, maybe due to nutrients maybe due to climate, or maybe is just the strain on the end of its life. Either way, I'm planning to harvest next week.

🇩🇪 Cherry Limeade von Doja – Wochenkommentar Die Cherry Limeade von Doja steht weiterhin richtig gut da 🌱. Das Blätterdach bedeckt die 60 × 60 cm mittlerweile ziemlich ordentlich, auch wenn hier und da noch ein paar kleinere Lücken zu sehen sind 🌿. Insgesamt bin ich mit der Struktur aber sehr zufrieden. An Tag 20 habe ich dann den etwas schmerzhaften Teil erledigt ✂️. Ich habe die Pflanze gelollipoppt und alle Blätter und Blüten entfernt, die im Schatten lagen. Das entfernte Pflanzenmaterial habe ich direkt wieder als Mulch ins Beet gegeben ♻️. Ehrlich gesagt tut mir jede größere Entlaubung ein bisschen im Herzen weh, weil die Pflanze danach gefühlt nur noch halb so groß aussieht 😅. Aber diesmal gilt ganz klar Qualität vor Quantität 🎯. Ich möchte möglichst ausschließlich große Top Buds produzieren, die während der gesamten Blüte ausreichend Licht bekommen ☀️. Eine interessante Erkenntnis hatte ich diese Woche auch beim Tensiometer 💧. Ich musste feststellen, dass das Manometer offenbar etwas hängt. Durch leichtes Klopfen bewegt sich die Nadel wieder und zeigt anschließend einen anderen Wert an. Rückblickend hatte ich wahrscheinlich gar keine zu niedrige Saugspannung / hohe Bodenfeuchtigkeit – die Pflanze hat sich schließlich optimal entwickelt 🌱. Das Problem lag vielmehr darin, dass das Tensiometer teilweise falsche Werte angezeigt hat. Zum Glück habe ich mich zusätzlich immer auf die Fingerprobe und vor allem auf die Entwicklung der Pflanze verlassen 👆🌿. Dadurch ist trotz der fehlerhaften Anzeige alles gut gegangen. Ich habe das Tensiometer nun herausgezogen und komplett neu mit Wasser befüllt 💦. Allerdings muss ich das Manometer weiterhin leicht anklopfen, damit sich die Nadel zuverlässig bewegt. Mein Ziel bleibt bei etwa 120 mbar Saugspannung während der Blüte. Heute gab es außerdem 3,5 Liter Almicanna Flower Komposttee 🌸. Der Tee wurde zuvor insgesamt 48 Stunden unter Belüftung gebraut und durfte anschließend ins Beet 🫧🌱. Jetzt heißt es erst einmal zurücklehnen und der Cherry Limeade beim Aufbau ihrer Buds zuschauen 😎. Nachdem sie sich in den nächsten Tagen von der Entlaubung erholt hat, werde ich die Lichtintensität schrittweise auf 1000 PPFD erhöhen ☀️. Jetzt beginnt für mich der wirklich spannende Teil der Blüte – weniger Training, mehr beobachten und hoffentlich viele schöne, dicke Top Buds 💚🌸. 📊 Parameter der letzten Woche: 💡 Licht: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 (12/12, Stufe 6, 40 cm Abstand) 🌡️ Temperatur: 27 °C 💧 Luftfeuchtigkeit: 66 % 📈 VPD: 1,2 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Ø 550 ppm 💦 Bodenfeuchtigkeit: 120 mbar 🇬🇧 Cherry Limeade from Doja – Weekly Update The Cherry Limeade by Doja is looking really good 🌱. The canopy now covers most of the 60 × 60 cm tent quite nicely, although there are still a few small gaps here and there 🌿. Overall, I’m very happy with the structure. On day 20, I had to do the slightly painful part ✂️. I lollipopped the plant and removed all leaves and flowers that were sitting in the shade. Instead of throwing the plant material away, I added it straight back to the bed as mulch ♻️. I have to admit that heavy defoliation always hurts a little because the plant suddenly looks like it has lost half of its mass 😅. But this time I’m clearly going for quality over quantity 🎯. My goal is to produce mainly top buds that receive plenty of direct light throughout flowering ☀️. I also discovered something interesting with the tensiometer this week 💧. The pressure gauge seems to be sticking slightly. A gentle tap on the gauge makes the needle move again and reveals a different reading. Looking back, I probably didn’t have excessively high soil moisture at all – the plant has been developing perfectly 🌱. The problem was simply that the tensiometer was occasionally giving me inaccurate readings. Fortunately, I also relied on the finger test and, most importantly, on how the plant itself was developing 👆🌿. Because of that, everything worked out despite the faulty readings. I have now removed the tensiometer and refilled it completely with water 💦. However, I still need to gently tap the gauge to get the needle moving reliably. My target remains around 120 mbar soil suction tension throughout flowering. Today I also gave the plant 3.5 liters of Almicanna Flower Compost Tea 🌸. The tea had been actively aerated and brewed for a full 48 hours before being applied 🫧🌱. Now it’s time to sit back and watch the Cherry Limeade build those buds 😎. Once she has recovered from the defoliation over the next few days, I’ll gradually increase the light intensity to 1000 PPFD ☀️. The really exciting part of flowering starts now – less training, more observation, and hopefully lots of beautiful, chunky top buds 💚🌸. 📊 Parameters from last week: 💡 Light: 900 PPFD / DLI 39 (12/12, Level 6, 40 cm distance) 🌡️ Temperature: 27 °C 💧 Humidity: 66% 📈 VPD: 1.2 kPa 🌿 CO₂: Avg. 550 ppm 💦 Soil moisture: 120 mbar

This one’s due for a little cleanup before she hits bloom cycle. Everything in the auto tent has taken very well to the Mills Nutrients.

BIG BIG apologies to Heather from fast buds & to Growdiaries & anyone who follows. The past few months have been a massive struggle, not just with temperatures & growing weed but on a personal level. My wife has been very poorly & with covid and everything going on, it's put a massive strain on us all!! I've tries to maintain an active presence on Instagram but that's about all I've physically had time for. I've put this update together today, so far into the grow now it almost seems pointless. I lost my original Mimosa due to high temps & high RH. Moving into the attic at that time of year was a mistake. It has cost me a small fortune to keep things alive. I've had to purchase an air con unit, more fans & just more of everything to be honest. My purple punch is almost ready to harvest, any time within the next couple of days, followed shortly by Bruce Banner & Kosher cake. I wont be winning any awards for this Diary & I feel bad as I was supposed to be show casing what 420 Fast buds has to offer & I've failed...miserably. I hope you can make sense of all the pictures I've included....just a mass photo frenzy over the past few weeks. Thanks to everyone & all your comments. Wishing you all the best. One Love ❤️

Good plant, done in 60 days this time. Wish I saved a clone. Drying at 60%rh and 65°. It was supposed to be a mother plant that was producing clones but ended up putting into flower anyway. It had a rough life and end up going to flower twice during veg which caused multiple rounds of monster cropping on top of each other and required lots of trimming and training.

Welcome to 📅 day 8 of veg 3/22/2021 the little girl is doing great🌱 I'm very happy with the fast progress. note: The Mars Hydro TS 1000 is sure a fantastic light the only small problem was the blue light from my Aglex 1200 was causing the plant the lean to the side toward the light so I put up a barrier and the problem is now gone. also it looks like she is growing just a bit faster than her sister next to her🌱🌱 Update 📅Day 10 of veg 3/24/2021 she is doing very well under the TS1000 leaves are getting big and and topping is coming near I also added Fox Farms Kelp me Kelp you, to the veg cycle to see if it helps Update 📅 Day 11 of veg 3/25/2021 she grew quite a lot over night and so I micro toped ✂️ her I will upload pics in the morning

At the start of the week these plants were trimmed. They are being prepared for the flowering stage. Then at the end of the week, they were fed one last time with Gonzo Farms - GROW, as a nutrient tea. Then, the lights were set to a 12/12 light schedule to set the plants into flowering. They were also treated with neem oil to combat fungus gnats.

11.06 - I watered them without fertilizers. They look good and healthy. The leaves around the buds at the tops begin to darken, this is the effect of adding trace elements. Next time I water, I'll add a little more. 12.06, I cut off the two lowest floors of the branches, I left the leaves in case there were any problems with deficiencies. Unfortunately, I've already spotted a few squids with my own eye plus what I caught with sticks. This does not bode well for the future. I'll have to double dose Soil Attack soon. 14.06 They growing fast, I hope that soon they will stop ;). Last watering was with a little bit PK and Bloom Stimulator from BAC and Soil Attack, Azot Bacterias and little bit BAC Silicium. Next watering will be only with little Bit Trace Elements to fight with manganese deficiency.
