Did a final defoliation and now should see some decent swelling of the buds over the next couple of weeks

Salve a tutti e ben tornati :) Questo sarà l'ultimo diario che aprirò quest'anno, l'ultimo che darà inizio ad un anno nuovo, con prospettive migliori, lasciandoci alle spalle tutte le disavventure che ci sono capitate durante questo ultimo brutto periodo.. Per cominciare, scopro le carte: io parlo italiano! Siccome sono stanco di scrivere tutto in inglese - sbagliando qualche volta - ho deciso di scrivere tutto usando la mia madrelingua. Ne vado fiero, perchè nasconderlo? ;D Detto ciò, passiamo alla selezione di oggi. Poichè sono un paziente affetto da epilessia, necessito di qualcosa che mi faccia stare calmo, tranquillo. Qualcosa che mi aiuti a combattere gli effetti collaterali del farmaco, come l'insonnia o l'ansia di giorno. Per questo sono andato a caccia di qualche nuova strain, fuori da quelle comuni, che venisse più incontro alle mie esigenze. Finalmente ho trovato! Tre strain davvero indicate per i miei bisogni :D La DC#1 di Doctor's Choice è una strain bilanciata, per un uso diurno, che aiuta a socializzare e a combattere l'ansia e lo stress! La Black Berry OG CBD della Emerald Triangle Seeds è quel che mi ci vuole per aiutare a distendere i nervi, un'indica con rapporto cbd:thc di 3:1 :D La Banana Sherbet di South Seeds, una nuova strain davvero forte, indica, che ti stende, ottima per collassare la sera dopo una lunga giornata ;) Questi semi mi sono stati donati da fantastici breeder che purtroppo non hanno tutta l'attenzione che meritano.. date un'occhiata alle loro seedbank, troverete delle gemme perfettamente compatibili con le vostre esigenze! - Adesso basta chiacchiere, è il momento di parlare di cose tecniche. Germinazione! Come da rito, sono solito lasciare immersi i miei semi per 24 ore nell'acqua. Dopodichè li tengo in un fazzoletto umido, chiuso, finchè non mostrano una buona radice - di solito 24-36 ore. Dopodichè li trapianto nel loro primo contenitore - un 0.8L - dove svilupperanno un bel sistema radicale prima di essere trapiantate nel loro contenitore finale! Finalmente nel fine settimana sono riuscito a trapiantarle. Ho usato un po’ di root complex per stimolare le radici nel jiffy ;)

No idea about the weight. I'll have to update when they are dry. I'll buy a hanging scale next cycle so I can measure moisture loss. The temp is now around 21-23 C, but the RH is holding around 60% so hopefully it'll still be a slow, steady dry. One smelled of pure grapefruit, one almost like Rhubarb and very gassy, the other was more citrus.. still a bit of grapefruit and gas, but more of a bergamot smell. At different points I've smelled Rhubarb, pepper, mint and cream/milk coming from these plants. Will be an interesting smoke.

Explosive growth this week. They are ready for the flip and will be going into 12/12 in two days This strain is by far and away the fastest and most heavy veg growth in the garden. Seeing some of the harvests on here (AstroBoy) makes me drool. Big thanks to OSS for the tester beans

This week went pretty well for my sour diesel auto. She Finally stopped growing vertically at about 48 inches to the top of the highest cola. We did have a serious heatwave and high humidity I been dealing with as well, but so far so good. The only thing I changed this week with nutrients is I raised my ec value to 1.6, at the advice of another grower, and the sour diesel took it like the piglet that she is. I am still on an 18/6 light cycle,which I plan to stay with the entire grow, and still feeding Maxibloom, calmag, and koolbloom. I am seeing some bright orange colored spots on the top leaves, but I am hoping it is just a little light bleaching. I have no experience with this as I have NEVER grown anything indoors before other than vegetable seedlings. I just wanted to say thank you to this community for all the advice, tips and encouragement along the way, very much appreciated all, and Blaze On!

3 seeds from barneys farm : zkittlez Og auto. Diary : Day 1: I dug a pit and cleaned my dirt with metal grid and a wheelbarrow & Installed the greenhouse. Day 2 : I rotated my dirt and added universal soil. 4 x 70l to area of 6m2 . I also planted seeds in universal soil without sprouting first. Day 3 : I gave water and checked for sprouts. Bought moist meter and dripping hose. Installed those and making the greenhouse more moisty now. Putted seeds in small sprout basket for now. Feeling : Verry happy for my first time. Lots to learn.. . Excited

TEMPERATURE ISSUES MADE ME FEEL UNCONFORTABLE BUT THE PLANTS ARE RUNNING SUPER GOOD. LETS SEE IF THEY CAN GET FATTER WITH THOOSE HIGH TEMPERATURES. CHECKING THE CRYTALS EVERY DAY, NOT READY YET. PROBABLE 1-2 WEEKS FOR THE FLUSH AND 1 MORE FOR HARVEST. MUCH LOVE GROWMIES. FEEL FREE TO COMMENT YOUR PAST EXPERIENCES OR YOUR TIPS. GROWSHOPS ARE CLOSED AND I LOVE HEARING TO THE GOOD BREADERS, ALWAYS LEARNING. 12/05/2020---> HE REGADO CON TOP BLOOM Y TOP CANDY A LA GORILA LST Y AL LEMON HAZE PORQUE ESTABAN DEMASIADO AMARILLOS Y AUN QUIERO AGUANTARLAS 1-2 SEMANAS MAS

Tuesday, May 2, 2023 at 10:45 AM D 62 -Ooof! Not really sure what happened but a couple of my plants got rocked pretty hard. I must’ve overwatered them. I bought a soil meter so I can check what’s going on. I’ll put some pictures up. Hopefully it’s still going to be some fire. The strawberry crinkle is kicking ass one of the blood oranges is looking good and smelling great but the other blood orange and the forum Stomper got hit pretty hard. The blood oranges leaves have started to yellow and the smell It had disappeared. The forum Stomper still smells good but its leaves got hit the hardest. -this is my first indoor soil grow. Before this I grew everything hydroponically and if I dealt with soil, it was all outdoors. I’ve also grown using cocoa so I had that as a reference. That was a mistake. Growing in cocoa is really hard to drown your plants. Drenching a plant that’s growing in soil is not a good idea. -It might sound dumb to some of you growers out there, but having a digital meter for your soil is awesome. I stick that thing in there and I stop watering when it tells me that it’s good, highly recommended.

Beautiful!! 🍋

So after further review I found that the Big Bang is an auto that REQUIRES a dark period throughout its flowering stage and doesn’t do well under 24 hours of light🤦‍♂️🏾She lost almost every leaf she had but her branches are still strong and she’s trying to survive. I’m not too worried about it, I can always give it another run. As far as the crystal candy I’m contemplating on cutting a single branch now while the terpenes are cloudy and then cutting the rest when Amber just to experience the difference in high first hand.

4 September 2022 Flowering: 42 days - 6 weeks Tip of foliage showing sign of maybe pH imbalance or too much fertilizer? Did a small water flush. The run off water was very acidic, added water until run off was 6 pH Maybe time for water only now 10-15 more days till harvest??

Tenth week of flowering started. I went out a week and at my return I discovered that the #2 is sick. The plant doesn't drink anymore and a lot of branches are falling down with limp leaves. I think that the missing defoliation, the height and the poor ventilation caused that. At the moment I removed her from the tent moving her out to the balcony. I did a huge defoliation to the #1 and a massive LST in order to low the height of buds that reached the lamp that is at its maximum height. So far I gave to the plant only water. I think that the cause of plant disease is the high humidity level (at least 90%...). Tomorrow I will buy a dehumidifier hoping that this will help the remaining plant. D63: changed the water into the pot. Added 15 ml grow, 30ml micro and 40ml bloom. pH@5.5 EC 1.2 D64: after the defoliation the plant seems to be healthy. The humidity into the tent is still high, tomorrow I will install the dehumidifier. D65: I've put a dehumidifier into the tent, I've added 3 liters of tap water to the pot; the plant is drinking a lot so I think that she is fine. The plants produces a lot of fat buds, so I've checked the trichomes for the first time, they are clear for the majority. D67: added 5 liters of tap water to the pot. The plant is drinking a lot

Day 78 plants are now going to grow outdoor. Clones coming along nicely. This week I'm giving the mothers a chance to get used to outdoor grow. Day 84, mother enjoying the sun, got 91 clones from the first 3 batches.

Alien Vs Triangle starting to get huge. Impressive for 2 weeks old. Gave her an overdose of Recharge this week and I think it paid off! I'm betting she double (or triples) in size this week. Stay Tuned!👍

Estamos en la primera semana de vegetativo, ya que a la anterior se la conoce como semana de germinación. Las plantas empiezan a mostrar las primeras hojas reales por encima de los cotiledones. Cuidado con que la humedad relativa del aire, no sea demasiado baja, lo ideal sería alrededor de un 65%. En esta etapa solo regamos suavemente con agua cada 5 días aprox. * Una de las plantas no ha crecido correctamente y la doy de baja.

* Early in the week I spent some time removing smaller fan leaves in the middle of the canopy. My goal has been to allow as much direct light to the bud sites as possible. * I've been working from home a lot more so I have been able to keep the PH on point fairly consistently. * The buds are really starting to fatten up and I've been noticing more hairs turning orange. Probably still at less than 5% overall orange so a long ways to go still. Pineapple Express #1 continues to impress. The buds are getting FAT!!! I can't wait to hold them in my arms. The lower sugar leaves have so much sugar on them that I literally panicked thinking I had a mold problem. On closer inspection is just solid crystals. I added a photo (maybe I'm exaggerating just a tad but see for yourself). Pineapple Express #2 is starting to pick up steam but it is the furthest behind. And I am thinking that might be for a reason if it keeps growing like is has been. I was taking a few leaves off and got to smell the trichomes, and I am telling you this smells like the best fruity pebbles you've ever had. I took 2 clones from her and both are looking great, so this won't be the last of her. Pineapple Skunk is middle of the road. It is further ahead than the others as the orange hairs are probably right at 5-10%. The buds are starting to get fatter and they are full of trichomes. I haven't been able to isolate a smell from her yet but there is a lot of competition in that tiny box. I think this one will yield a little less than the others but there are still many weeks to go so we'll see. Thanks for stopping by!

I will b running the SHERBCAKE again to dial her in properly took a lot clones of her so I can’t wait to run her again terps of her is dessert and fuely 🍰⛽️ seeds made by k1 kreationz
