This is the actual harvest now! Out of the three plants this run, trimming (I'm wet trimming usually) this one was the most fun (least work 💩). Amazing leaf to inflorescence ratio! These may also have been the most dense/heavy buds I have ever harvested. Usually my dry weight at ~60% is about 20-25% of the wet weight.. I'm excited to see how this one ends up. Compared to the last LemonZ I grew, this one was quite a bit larger and took about 10 days longer. But I'm guessing the yield is almost 1.6-1.8x the last one! [Past Dan:]Drying right now at around ~55% relative humidity and upping to 60% in 2-3 days - will update this with dry bud shots as soon as I get the opportunity! [Present Dan:] Drying finished after seven days. Had to measure the humidity because just touching the buds made me think they're still somewhat wet. They're not wet, just VERY resinous!💩 This time I also tried to vacuum shrink one of the buds as an experiment. For people who like the "round and compact" look that maybe the way to go. I'm torn between that and the natural wet-trim-dried-look. You certainly lose some resin to the bag. Aaand some flavour too because after opening the bag it fucking STANK! I tried making a video of the vacuumed bud too but it came out too bright due to the phone-flashlight lighting the vid I think. Taste/effect report soon(tm)!

This week ill try to switch over to an English diary because the translation is absolutely crap and i might learn a thing or two about the English terms in growing, also because the American and Canadian researchers extended the growing knowlegde in an absolute insane tempo and i would probably get most of my information from them. I don't have a spelling-check on this pc, therefore i apologize in advance ;). I uploaded some photo's with crappy lighting (Next grow ill switch day-night rythm and should give me better opportunities for photo's, but we'll get to that in the future) but also i short video of some notes which i will elaborate below: Last week on saturday i turned off the carbon vent because i could not get the humidity level right and i was still waiting for my humidifier. I placed a big fan inside the tent for air circulation and besides that i installed a small vent-filling fan in in front for clean-airflow. Last weekend i closely watched what the humidity and temperature did and started playing with the setup. All the changes i made in the tent last week are: 06-02: - Shut down carbon vent - Added rotation fan inside - Added small front-fan for clean airflow 07-02: - Added humidifier (setting 55%) - Dropped HPS 600W about 15 cm's to 110 cm height 08-02: - Humidifier setting 60% 09-02: - Dropped HPS 600W about 20 cm's to 90 cm's height 10-02: - Front fan on 2 instead of 1 11-02: - No changes because all is stable 12-02: - Placed humidifier at the back instead of the side of plants - Dropped HPS 600W 15 cm's again to 75 cm's height - Moved the inside fan more to the top-back of the tent (more facing downwards) - Opened up a vent-hole in the top of the tent for a little warmth release From the moment i turned off my carbon vent last week the sprouts started flourishing, especially when i added the humidifier. All the changes, noting, and looking at them how they pose, reading blogs and learning have brought me to the point that i think i stabelized it. Allthough i am going to turn on the carbon vent sooner or later (i might do this tomorrow) i need to pay attention again because i'm predicting it will drain the humidifier in a higher speed and that means i have to refill approx. 15 liters in 2 days? The tank is 5.5 liter and at the moment i refill it every evening, so thats already 11 liters in 2 days. I'm really expecting it to increase significantly i ill keep my notebook ready. :p I'm also a bit worries it will be so warm in my tent because the outside temperature is pretty cold, and that might also be the reason the temperature doesen't go above 28 degrees anymore. Okay enough about the tent setup changes. Lets talk plants. After the transplant last week to their end-pot these auto's started to grow immediately and i think they did really well this week. Since the humidifier got added to the tent, every morning the plants praise their "Hallelujah" pose which is really pleasing to watch... **Last weeks's first time watering in the big pots:** 06-02 around 09.00: - 750ml around the side - 750ml around the middle area - 750ml with nutrients spreaded around the pots All is equally divided through 4 plants. This week's watering and nutrients: 08-02 around 16.00: - 750 ml around the pot - 750 ml with nutrients 11-02 around 10.00: - 500ml around - 500ml around - 500ml with nutrients 12-02: - Sprayed Vita Race first time 4ml in 750 ml and sprayed about 15% of it on the leaves, no drups, mostly nebula. The vita race really made the leaves shine, also within 1,5 hours all moist was took in or evaporated, Today probably again around 1600 ill water them again but ill hold the next vita race for tomorrow or something. as long as the plants shine the same i don't know if it's neccasary? Okay, last but not least.... This week on wednesday i kinda mis-read some shit on internet and topped 3 of my 4 plants. I think it went okay, because they don't seem to stressed about it. They still flourish and hallelujah on! Still i'm pretty worried because i made the cut right next to the nodes which isen't the best thing (learning phase :p)...... The reason i topped 3 outta 4 because i wanted to see if i diden't stress the smallest one, he would out-grow the others, but that does absolutely not seem to be the case. Also i think it's a great way to learn by not stressing one plant to see the differences, i want this first grow not to be about end results but more about learning and developing my own personal experience and point of view. Oh PS, i also drilled all the holes to prepare for LST, but i think they were kinda to small on 10-02 when i drilled it. I'm going to watch the recovery from the topped plants closely coming week and maybe start with LST. Stay tuned while this noob messes around with Auto Critical Orange Punch of Dutch Passion.

Info : Unfortunately, I had to find out that my account is used for fake pages in social media. I am only active here on growdiaries. I am not on facebook instagram twitter etc All accounts except this one are fake. Flowering day 23 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) . This week was even more extreme than the weeks before :-). She has used the stretch to the full and has grown completely out of the net. So slowly it is getting tight on the ceiling with the lamps 😂. Tomorrow I have to rebuild a bit so that I can get the lamps up a bit. As suddenly as the stretch was, the blossoms began to set in. So I think the strech will decrease significantly now. This Runtz Phenotype is perfect for the AeroPhonic ScroG :-). The tank was completely cleaned again and freshly filled (see table for nutrients). As you can see I have not yet managed to take everything under the net this week, which I will make up for the days. Otherwise almost everything was checked and checked for health. I'm really excited about the coming week and until then I wish you all a lot of fun with the update.

End of week 2 of flower - Everything is running smoothly after installing my AC Infinity inline fan the environment has been extra easy to keep under control. The smell is getting stronger by the day and the ladies are fattening up nicely, especially my Purple Lemonade from FastBuds she doesn’t seem to be showing a lot of purple which I was really hoping for and she is also the fastest flowering plant in my grow. All the other plants were selected to have a longer flowering period. I defoliated slightly.

8/22 - There has been some explosive growth among my 4 purple Microdots. They are growing by leaps and bounds each day, 8/23 - So far everything is going smoothly. Just watering each day w/ RO water and organic black strap molasses. 8/24 - Brewing up some compost tea. This will be there first! As they start to get a little bigger I've made a prediction for sex. I think A238 & A239 are male and A240 & A241 are female. We'll see! 8/25- Fed the ladies with the compost tea and used it as a foliar spray as well. They responded very well and continue to have crazy, rapid, growth. 8/27 - They have gotten so big and bushy. I'm going to start a little LST on them today! 8/30 - They are starting to show sex! Still can't tell whether it's male or female...but it should be any day now!

13 Jun 2021 Continuing to flush my DarkStar Kush probably for another week at least. If I were following my original plan, I would be cutting her down today and starting the harvest. However, the runoff is still colored (not as much as it was, but still), and the TDS runoff was higher today than yesterday by almost 200 ppm. I’ve added new pics for this new week to show how she’s changing colors later in her life. She’s begging to be harvested, but I want to smoke her and not her nutrients! I’ve already waited this long, what’s another week or so. 🤷‍♂️ Oh well. I gave her a gallon of water chilled to 49.2 degrees F, and gave her 20 drops of pH DOWN which adjusted the pH from its initial 8.2 to a final pH of 6.7. The TDS going in was 76 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.3, and TDS runoff was 1740 ppm (up from 1462 ppm yesterday). Tent temperature was 82 degrees F, and humidity was 42%. 14 Jun 2021 Continuing with the flush today. Feeding a gallon of 45.5 degree F water with nothing more than 22 drops (gtts) of pH DOWN to make it just right. Initial pH was 8.4, and adjusted down to 6.4. The TDS going in was 85 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.4, and TDS runoff was 1377 ppm. Working in the right direction at least. TDS runoff yesterday was 1740 ppm, so a reduction of 363 ppm today, but still a ways to go. Tent temperature was 82 degrees F and humidity was 47%. She’s looking more and more ready for harvest each day! Uploaded some pics of her colorful foliage today along with some new trichome pics. They’re almost all cloudy/milky with some amber interspersed here and there. Come on flush!! Do your job! 😜 16 Jun 2021 Went out of town on a day trip yesterday, so no watering was done, but I’m back today to continue the flush. The tent temperature was 81 degrees F, and humidity was 43%. Thought I’d start off backwards today in my note from the norm. I gave a gallon of cold water (51 degrees F) with 20 drops of pH DOWN to adjust the initial pH of 8.2 to 6.5. The TDS going in was 83 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.5, which to me is promising, and the TDS runoff was 814 ppm. That’s a decrease of 563 ppm since the last watering/flush on the 14th. Hopefully in just a couple of days I’ll be able to start the harvest because she is READY!! I took more trichome pics today which were marvelous! They are perfect (to my untrained and inexperienced eye)! Hopefully I’m just days away!! 17 Jun 2021 Continuing the flush another day. The TDS runoff is still decreasing a little bit every day. Today I’ll be uploading a video instead of a bunch of pics. I already have a lot for this week, so I figured I’d do something different. I’m still giving chilled, and properly pH’ed fresh water. Nothing else. So, today I gave a gallon of H2O chilled to 51F. The initial pH was 8.4, so I added 22 drops (1ml) of pH DOWN to adjust it to 6.4. The TDS going in was 85 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.5, and TDS was 758 ppm. There is a 56 ppm decrease from yesterday, and I was hoping for much more, but it is what it is. I’ll keep going till it is better till harvest. Looking at the plant, it’s losing several leaves that are just drying up and falling off. Not a lot, but about as much as should be expected at this stage. The plant, trichomes, and buds are ready for harvest, but I want to make sure that I get all the nutrients out before I do it. Thankfully, I’m a patient person! 19 Jun 2021 I’ve been doing the flush for 2 weeks now, and the TDS runoff is still measuring 647 ppm. Honestly, I don’t know what the level should be for the harvest, but I’m getting to the point where I just want to go ahead and do it. Her buds are looking awesome, and many of the sugar leaves have turned dark purple, but she’s losing a lot of her bigger leaves. None of the ones around any buds, so I’m not concerned with it that much. However, I don’t want the trichomes to get more amber. The vast majority are milky, which is what I’m looking for with only a smattering of amber here and there. She’s just right!! Anyway, I gave a gallon of water at 48.7F with an initial pH of 8.3. I added 21 drops (1ml) of pH DOWN to adjust it to 6.7. The TDS going in was 71 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.7 (it has consistently been the same or just a decimal point off from that going in for the last week or so). The runoff TDS was 647 ppm as noted above. Tent temperature was 84F, and humidity was 48%.

Day 43 does some bottom leaves trimming. Day 46. Watering with 2.5L nutrients mix.

Holkám se daří dobře, vypadají zdravé a vitální, co se týče stretch,. tak vystrelili ze do 300% moc nechybi Guano odvádí spolecne s vodou dobrou práci a v jidelnicku mame kdyztak biobizz bloom ,jestli bude potřeba tak uvidíme. .jedna z holek ukázala lehce bile spicky listu ale nesiri se to, nemění to barvu tak mam zato ze jde o projev toho ze substrat je nabitéj a chce jenom vodu ..uvidime jak to pujde dal ... At vám to roste Hombres..Dasvidáňa :D

📝 Blüte Tag 36 ? Der Stretch hat aufgehört und die Blüten werden langsam dicker. 🍒 Critical Cherry hat ihren Wasserverbrauch erhöht. Sie bekommt jetzt alle 2 Tage 1,2L Wasser. Die anderen wie gehabt 1L alle 3 Tage. Bei allen wird der Geruch allmählich sehr stark. Riecht auf jeden Fall lecker 😋 💡 Das Licht habe ich auf 80% Leistung hochgeschraubt. Die Pflanzen scheinen das gut zu vertragen. 📊 Seit dieser Woche ist mein Luftentfeuchter auch aktiv um die RLF zu senken. Ziel ist, so weit wie möglich unter 50% zu kommen. Aktuell ist es schwer, da es hier täglich regnet. Wird hoffentlich in den nächsten 1-2 Wochen besser. Temperatur aktuell 25 - 26 °C tagsüber.

Ahhhh. Chop chop. It’s as amazing as I remember. Look for look, smell for smell and hopefully taste for taste with the drying/curing. I might come back and post weight if I remember to 😂😂

Each one has such a unique smell and flower structure. I really neglected the hell our most of these plants given the tiny 3 gallon container and arid conditions - however these plants were resilient. Crystal Light x Pelee Sword stands out as gassy pungent strain covered in trichomes. (Purple Haze x Malawi) x pelee sword was also very note worthy. Very citrusy/floral notes, airy bud structure but surprisingly very resinous. Super stoked and thanks again DaDankSeed bank for the genetics and pointers!

watering problems, too hot weather

All the plants are beautiful but some are beautiful. This is the case of Red Hot Cookies, a young lady who stands out, stands out among the others and despite the 6.5 pot she is also growing and swelling well. But her strength is beauty for real, look at these flowers to believe. They are an intense red that goes towards purple which contrasts greatly with the truly wonderful white hairs. Also wonderful are the leaves that are tinged with the classic RHC color near the flower

In the second week the plant has now started to produce its first set of single bladed leafs.

Incredible smell

This lady is doing really nicely since I being moved from the tent. I made a massive error with my other grow by leaving her in the tent with the front cover closed as we had some shite weather and this made the humidity levels to high causing bud rot. I can't begin to explain how soul destroying it was finding that. This lady is free from any mould and since I have just defoliated her there will be less chance of it happening. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for any signs. I think this one may have around two to three more weeks before harvest.

This ladies have started the 4th week of veg great, however they'll start flower tomorrow on February 15th which is the last day of veg. I applied a little defoliation on both phenos removing the biggest leafs let's see how this ladies develop when the stretch starts! Can't wait! As said my ladies have been flipped into flower on February 15th which means that from now on they'll sleep more hours! I cannot wait to see this haze berry couple stretching to produce beautiful nuggets with that tropical aromas that I love so much! Let's see what happens, stay tuned! 💚💛❤️✌️

Woche 4 – Übergang zur Vorblüte 🌸 In dieser Woche habe ich überwiegend mit Wasser gegossen und einmal zusätzlich Dünger nach dem Blüteschema von Hesi gegeben, da sich im Laufe der Woche erste Anzeichen der Vorblüte gezeigt haben. Insgesamt haben sich die Pflanzen sehr gesund entwickelt und sind weiterhin gut gewachsen. ___________________________________________ Week 4 – Transition to Pre-Flower 🌸 During this week, I mostly watered with plain water and fed once using the bloom feeding schedule from Hesi, as the first signs of pre-flower started to appear. Overall, the plants remained very healthy and continued to grow well.
