So the start of flower is here 😌. I'm giving her a little worm casting, some cal-mag and a hint of PK booster. The cal-mag has N in it, so I'm hitting all my bases. I may put up a net to help rangle the multiple tops I have going. I'm going to give her a good defoliation at the end of the week jut expose those covered sites. Happy with the nutrients so far from Aurora Innovation : Soul line; players pack. No deficancys or issues as of yet and she is looking healthy

Victory over the moth larvae. Removed them with pipe cleaners. Still spraying Monterey BT. No new larvae holes. Reinforced several plants with velcro tape. The flowers are becoming heavy. The scent is overpowering. Sugar Cane is extraordinarily heavy and the flowers have not yet begun to swell. Gorilla Glue 4 is heavy and the branches have started to bend outward from the weight. All three were reinforced. Garlic Z is not a large plant and the buds are behind all the rest in progress but the flowers are close and compact.

*If anyone read through my GDP diary, this is going to be mostly the same stuff. So, sad day friends. I got spider mites and had to throw all my plants out. This is what I think happened: About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed some freckling on the lower leaves. I looked at it and thought it might be a cal/mag issue so I added cal/mag that week and went about my business. I saw it about a week later and it wasn't getting any better so I added more cal/mag. This continued for about 2-3 weeks until I finally took off a leaf and examined it under my microscope. I saw little bugs crawling everywhere and my stomach just dropped. My fiance did some quick research while I was panic ripping leaves off (see pictures) and she correctly diagnosed it as spider mites. I debated with myself and my close friend and ultimately I decided to throw all the plants in my tent away. I know that there are a lot of people who will say that there are things I could have done to make it to harvest but what it came down to is the people I take care of and personal pride. I consider myself a caregiver and I give away product for free that I am not going to use to my family and close friends. I thought to myself "Would you smoke this?" and when my answer was "ehhh, I don't know", I thought about how it would feel giving it away and immediately made the decision to destroy them. I take an immense amount of pride in my product and this hobby and if I am not going to stand behind it I would rather just start over. I grow from my heart (shout out to the Grow From Your Heart Podcast!) to help people and make sure my family is not getting unsafe product from sketchy people. To spray pesticides in flower that may hurt people and have little bug carcasses in there just goes against that in every way and is just wrong in my opinion if you are giving it away to others. If you are the only one smoking it then it is one thing to take that risk but not with your patients. I want my medicine to help people, not create or exacerbate health issues. It is also important to note that the mites had moved from my flower tent into my veg space and took over my auto berry as well. Damn things are crafty and fast. So that is why I made the decision to destroy them all after 3+ months of res changes, pruning, and manifolding on a slow vegging strain. Feel free to chime in with your opinion but I do not regret my decision. I threw out my new clones, mother plant, and auto berry I had on my veg side as well. Shout out to all the other growers out there that do the right thing by their patients. Caregivers > Cash croppers. For anyone curious, I removed everything from my tent and scrubbed it all with a 20% bleach/water solution. All equipment has been wiped down and stored in the garage away from any organic materials. I will give them until tomorrow (2 days) to air out and dry and then I will wipe it down again with bleach and wait another 2 days. Hopefully that will make sure everything is dead and will not come back next grow. That next grow should start in about a week. It sucks but sometimes it happens and you gotta be ready for it. Lesson learned. Never bring outdoor plants into your indoor garden even if it is after just a day or two. A bunch of people on here and Reddit warned me and I did not listen. Now I have learned the hard way and it feels like when your parents "told you so" haha. Thanks to everyone who stopped by along the way. Stay tuned for a new grow coming soon. It is going to be some cool new limited edition Mephisto Illuminautos. I am pretty excited. Good luck out there and always grow from your heart folks. -Grim

Greetings friends Allow me to introduce you to my first ever brand spanking new homemade self contained DWC hydroponic system. So for this small experimental cycle, I will be testing various nutritional additives and plant training techniques. I will be sure to record a daily log in order to optimize my progress. Please note I will not be including germination and drying time. Day 1 Mon, 16 July So after a few days germination and nurturing, the plants have been moved to their permanent home. I filled the reservoir with nutrients following the can a websites specific instructions. Day 2 Tue, 17 July I've noticed a small growth in height however, I had a small humidity dome which upon moving slightly damaged the leaves but I noticed some strange spots which may have been from the fertiliser. But I did follow the dosages exactly?? Day 4 Thurs, 18 July Note to self, maybe stick with clones seeing as you get straight into the vegging stage saving maybe a week or two. That and the fact they're free. Ok, so I had to completely empty all my reservoirs because I misinterpreted the CANNA websites feeding schedule. It said 0-3 weeks which I foolishly did not realise was post-germination/sapling. And also one of the smaller plants #3, actually fell over because it's roots still had not dug deep enough to feed on the reservoirs moisture. However, I almost literally saw it pop back up with a tad of rehydration. Note to self a good trick for future reference will be to fill the reservoir right up until it pretty much touches the net pot and then shrinks back down to that even 35L once I begin adding nutrients. Day 5 Fri, 18 July Ok, so I gathered a bit of Intel from my friendly neighbourhood hydroman. First off I can hold off buying the EC meter until next they enter the actual vegetative stage which apparently is between 3 to 5 internodes ( the space between nodes) until then I will be feeding them a fraction amount of veggie fertilizer and rhizotonic. Now, this swamp cooler thing has piqued my curiosity if I'm not mistaken dry ice converts to carbon dioxide which we all know plants love so, that means a swamp cooler can cool, raise humidity and increase co2? In the mean time, I was given a bag of homegrown co2 which I will photograph. This will also counter the high-temperature problems I have been having. Apparently, plants can withstand an additional 10 degrees with the addition of co2 that complemented by silica would prove to be invaluable in the summer. I will be purchasing a humidifier for my saplings soon and have decided to stick with weekly reservoirs, Peace out. Day 7 Sun, 21 July Note to self I think for my cycle if I used a short square shaped reservoirs and perhaps less litres next time with multiple net pots per reservoir and with clones I think that would greatly accelerate vegge time and thus shorter cycles in general Got myself a very good humidifier and added small amounts of vegge fertilizer to the none CANNA plants.

So liebe Community 💚🍀 heute war es an der Zeit die Sunset zu ernten. Die Pink Sunset von Silent Seeds feat. Sherbinskys ist ein echtes brachiales Prachtstück! Sie ist von den Konditionen des Klimas zwar nicht sonderlich Anspruchsvoll. Dafür legt Sie einen immensen Stretch hin und Mann muss sie ordentlich bändigen. Die Blütedauer liegt bei ca. 9 - 10 Wochen, was sich aber definitiv Lohnt. Dies war mein zweiter Anbau der Pink Sunset und es hat sich definitiv erneut gelohnt. Ihr Aroma ist zwar etwas eigenartig, dumpf und nicht richtig in eine Richtung zu beschreiben, dennoch sieht sie einfach wunderschön aus. Sie hat eine sehr gemischte Blütenstruktur: Die Buds sind richtig dick und kompakt, ziehen sich dann aber doch ein wenig in die länge und es ist ein leichtes Foxtailing erkennbar. Sie wirkt definitiv richtung Ende ihrer Wachstumsphase definitiv wie ein sehr dominanter Sativa Typ. Stay Tuned!💚

Hi liebe Community and Welcome Back! 🌿💚 Willkommen zur siebten vergangenen Blütewoche! Blütetag 57 Insgesamt zeigt sich hier in diesem Grow eine stärkere Blütenausbildung, als bei der anderen Pflanze. Auf jeden Fall zeigen sich Phenotypische unterschiede in der Gesamtstruktur. Allmählich kommen wir auf die Zielgeraden. Sie zeigt eine richtig schöne Struktur und wir landen beim Ertrag sicherlich im XL Bereich. Das Aroma hat bei dieser Pflanze einen stärkeren süsslichen Zitrustouch mit nun ausreifend fruchtigen Noten. Die Umgebungsgegebenheiten sind aktuell gut: ————— 🌞 Temp: 26 🌚 Temp: 18°C bis 19°C 💨 RH: 56% VPD: 1,10kPa 💡ppfd: 830 mpm ————— Viele Grüße 👋

58 Days have passed in flower. Cheese left, Gorilla Girl right. The "Just water no pH" experiment has failed me around week 5 of flower. I have not done anything to keep the soil biology alive so thats probably the issue. Its all good though, it was fun while it lasted and definitely worth a try. I have let the soil dry as much as possible and then i watered in a tablespoon molasses per gallon water. pH'd to 6.6. I just need atleast 3-7 more days of flower and hopefuly the buds will mature a little more. I took a snip of the bottom leafs to check for trichomes maturity, those are the weakest of trichomes on the plants. ---1st time growing with FLO - Florian Living Organics.--- They claim that there is no need to pH when watering and that their living fertilizer is the only thing that i will need throughout the whole grow so i only need to mix with soil and just water with plain water. If this stuff works then it can simplify my future grows ALOT! Happy growing. 😎

Day 73 ~ Plant 1 is looking great and hopefully will be ready to harvest by the end of the week. Been checking the trichomes and while most are getting milky white, there are still a couple sites on the plant where I find clear trichomes. Plant 2 seems to be about a week or two behind the first plant...I will give plant 2 their final Nutes tmrw and then begin to flush. From reading about this strain it seems like it should take around 90 days from seed to harvest. So I would think plant 1 is running a little ahead of schedule and plant 2 is right on time. Day 75 ~ Both plants looking and smelling amazing! I was hoping to be harvesting the first plant by this weekend, but she is still growing and her trichomes are still not all milky and I haven't yet to find an amber one. So it might be another week or so before I can start drying her out.

Sry, Osterzeit Geburtstag und Co haben zeitlich ihren Tribut gekostet aber jetzt schon mal der deutsche Part für den Rest der Vegetation unserer schönen Ladys 😊 Tag 43: nichts besonderes heute zu tun für die Ladys einfach mal chillen unter ihrer Sonne 🌞 Tag 44: heute gab es den Blütedünger von Green House Feeding(GHF Bloom Bio line) und zwar 76g/Topf als Topdressing. Zum Angießen gab je 2l Wasser mit ph 6.3 und 1g/l Enhancer und ein paar größere Blätter noch rausgenommen, aber nicht viele. Nur genug um den kleineren Nachzüglern der Triebe noch eine Chance gibt hoch zu wachsen. Tag 45:weil es gestern spät wurde heute nochmal 1l ph 6.2 Wasser mit 1ml Calmag gegossen und die Ladys saufen wie blöde 😊 Tag 46: die basen funzen nicht weil der Boden der Töpfe komplett trocken war, dummer Anfängerfehler, ist aber auch das erste Mal dass ich sie nutze, also Töpfe in 2l von unten in ne Wanne angewässert und dann wieder auf die basen zurück 😊 Tag 47: 1l Ph 6.2 Wasser mit 1ml/l Calmag von oben um den Dünger weiter ins Substrat zu spülen. Tag 48: sämtliche Erdhaken entfernt, you are free now Girls Tag 49: Lichtstärke nochmal um gut 100 ppfd erhöht Ende Vegetationswoche 5
