This week I added a new controller to handle up to 8 functions. I installed a new heater, my old humidifier and some LED strips to the controller. Targeting a VPD at 1.0 day and night.
Trying to keep the nutrient ppm under 900 and ph at 6.0 in the reservoirs. Ordered a second ph pen because I don’t trust my readings. Will be here by Thursday.
Friday:
Checked the ppm in the reservoirs and it’s at 1,000. Added more RO water with extra nitrogen to bring the ppm level down to 925.
Saturday: I installed an updated AC Infinity controller 69 Pro Plus (controls 8 pieces of equipment) which allowed me to add a humidifier, corner LEDs and a heater to the controller. Overall I’m extremely impressed with this AC Infinity equipment. My VPD is within the range I want to achieve (.8-1.1). I programmed it to maintain 78 degrees and 67% humidity during the day, 73 degrees and 63% humidity at night. Charts posted also show the impact of an open tent compared to the closed environment. The heater is constantly pushing fresh air into the tent, so I don’t need to cycle the exhaust fan often.
Rewired the tent again and moved the controller later that night. I mounted the controller on the wall. Added Mars Hydro UV/IR lighting to fill out all 8 slots on the controller.
Sunday: I checked the ph in the reservoirs (6.8….i had filled it with 6.0 ph) and the ppm (1200 ppm…I had filled it with 900). So evaporation and possibly a mismeasurement of ph. I topped ff reservoirs with slightly stronger nutes and adjusted ph to 5.8 in the reservoirs. Poor magnesium absorption could be driving some leaf yellowing. Effective tomorrow, I’m switching over to Heads Formula which consistently feeds GH Flora series nutes at Micro (6ml/g), Bloom (9ml/g) and cal mag (3ml/g). Turned on the UV/IR lights for 3 minutes every 8 hours. I’m easing the plants up to 5 minutes every 6 hours which will provide the recommended 20 minutes of IR per day. This will help the plants stretch a little more.
Monday: checked ph and ppm in reservoirs. 6.1ph and 880ppm. VPD remains stable except when I open the tent.
Tuesday: checked ph (6.4) and ppm (880) in reservoirs. Added .5ml of ph down to two reservoirs. Still see slight yellowing between the veins but it’s not getting worse (might be improving). Adjusting ph down to 6.0 target might have solved this. The plants grew by 1-2” last night…..is the infrared light working already?
Decided to mix up fresh nutes for the reservoirs following Heads formula. 6ml Micro and 9ml Bloom per gallon of RO water. Added 5 ml of CalMag too. Ending ppm was 1080 which is too high, so I diluted down to 880 with RO water. 6.0 ph.
Wednesday: plants grew another .75 inches last night. I topped above the 5th node.
Thursday: added RO water with heavy cal mag to reservoirs to increase amount of CalMag available.

Finally, this week they got some light.
Plants seemed to enjoy it and made a nice jump in bud size this week.
And, there were some small caterpillars this week which wanted to eat the buds.
Had to remove them, no big deal.

31.10. - Finally entering the flower stage, really excited about my first auto yield. Adjusted and added a few new ties on the biggest one. Removed ties from middle one to let her stretch out a bit. Watered.
2.10. - Added one more ml/l of Bio Bloom to the mix. I can already see some sugar one the leaves and many new bud sites. Watered.
6.10. - Just wow. All three plants are showing nice progress. The smallest one, which was stunted by overwatering in seedling stage shot out new branches and I'm not sure if it's good in almost 7th week. Plucked out few leaves on all three to expose the bud sites.

No problems this week. All running smoothly. No changes in feedings. Temps are going up here so I've piped the AC into the tents. I topped all of them mid-week and started LST on all the lil ladies this week.

In general, I liked growing this variety, the only thing is a lot of small leaves, it is not very convenient to cut, but the colas are very dense and weigh well, there are also many small stepsons, although I cleaned up during unnecessary time, powdery mildew appeared after the rain, which is difficult get rid of the large number of leaves on the plant, and it's very good)

To start off the week I've only just noticed that instead of 2 leafs and branches on each inter-node they're is 3 nice little mutation going on.....It was all normal through gemination and seedling stage can't wait to see her flourish
Day 29 Notes
Removed the lower fan leaves and side branches so I have 4 main tops to train I had 6 when i topped
Day 30 Notes
Watered with bio bizz grow bio bizz cal mag and bio heaven
Trained the 4 main branches
Day 33 Notes
Watered with bio bizz grow bio bizz cal mag and bio heaven and monkeys Root Shoot..also took a few fan leafs blocking lower branches

So the net is installed, lets wait until it is full covered and then going into bloom. I make this time a trial only to feed the Organe sherbet with Melass yeast buddermilk and sugar in vegetation. The yeast will produce the whole grow enough co2 to keep it up about 800 ppm only thing you have to do is to put some sugar in the feeding solution.

3rd week of flowering started and for only 2 weeks of flowering these ladies have grown very well. I had to pull my lamps even higher which the plants definitely enjoyed. they all gained about 10cm height in less than a week.
I added some CalMag to my water just prevent deficiency. I usually do it around week 9-10

Towards the end of the harvest, mold developed due to high temperature and humidity. I lost about 30% of my harvest. The buds did not fully mature. Despite all the setbacks, we managed to get a harvest.

Day 52: Light schedule 12/12, 200 ml water per plant per day, one-day bat guano the other day Epson salt as fertilization. Pre flowers out, except Blue Sherbet S1 but she is Sativa so slower than the others. I retrained them tried to separate the side branches. I also removed bigger fan leaves and at the bottom part to have better air flowing and the light can go through more efficiently, plus I changed their current positions so I placed to different corners. All good so far. Day 54: I uploaded video as well. They are so BEAUTIFUUUUUUL❤️
Day 55: Nice... So 24K Gold very bushy and nice lot flowers. Blue Sherbet S1 is slower due to Sativa dominance but it is coming. Fruit Tree the same very nice bushy a lot of flowers. Zkittlez remains small she is the smallest but pre-flowers are nice coming along. The smell is getting stronger.
Day 56: They are developing nicely. I am waiting for harvest tho.....😂
Day 57: The smells getting stronger. My girlfriend noise is blocked 😂😂😂😂

I flushed the pots once this week.
And use once with enhancer and a very small dose of shrot flowering fertilizer.
And I tried very hard to lower the humidity and make the daytime temperature not more than 25 degrees

Ok guys so she was bushy again and so we did defoliation again.
You can see the difference and then after that started flowering even more
Plus the fact we are increasing the amount of molasses added to the soil plus the floranova bloom nutes.
They are very thirsty girls, taking around 1.5-2lts per 48 hrs
So almost like a 1 liter per 24 hrs
Very good SoG to make them feel even more comfortable
Going to change schedule from 24/0 to 19/5 and see if they evolve!
Thinking about adding some humus to the soil as well, other than that they have been under good conditions
Temp is steady at day time around 24C top and night time is 18-19C minimum
RH around 45-60%
Mostly 45% control environment with AC
Cant wait to see big colas coming soon!
Have fun enjoy the videos!

Officially two weeks since I planted the seed. These things have really grown since the flush and nutrients. Will be flushing and fresh water and nutes on Tuesdays. I will also add daily progress pics and updates.
7/1 (Day 14) - Everything is continuing to go pretty well. I feel pretty good and dialed in on my temps, humidity, and VPD. I've just been kinda monitoring everything and its going well. They seem to be doing ok. I definitely made the mistake of planting them two low in the net pots I think. Im not sure if that is going to hurt anything or not, they seem to be doing ok though. Ill try and get some pics of the roots, I felt under one of them to see if they had roots and there was one under that that was pretty damn gnarly and long already though. Will update later with pics if i can.
7/2 (Day 15)- Continuing to see good growth I think. Things continue to run well and everything is in check and staying the same. PH went up to 6.1 and I added a very small amount of PH down and waited about an hour an now we are back at 5.8.
7/3 (Day 16)- Everything continues as normal, got the new humidifier in and hooked up and its made life much easier. Plants continue to grow and seem to be happy. Tomorrow is flush day and new nutes! Ill try and get a video or something if I can remember.
7/4 (Day 17)- Flushed and refreshed everything. Its a long process due to waiting on the RO water. Everything is looking pretty good though. Just going to continue to monitor. Temp and humidity are still 78-79ish and around 65% RH during day and around 72-73 and 58-60%RH at night. PPM after this flush is around 650ppm or EC 0.9
7/5 (Day-18)- Every seems to continue to go pretty well. Temps, humidity, ph, and ec all stable, plants continue to grow!
7/6 (Day 19)- Pretty much same as yesterday, everything is staying steady and running pretty good, they are getting big but not really growing tall, wondering if it will shoot up soon or if i messed up by planting too deep in net pots.
7/7 (Day 20)- Had an issue this morning, woke up to some leaves curling down at the ends. Checked everything, temp 79, humidity 65%, water temp 68, EC is .9 so same as when I mixed, roots look great, 1 inch gap from net pot, airstins and everything is great. Came to conclusion my light was too close. I haven’t raised it and plants have grown a few inches. I think it was too close and burning. Moved the light to about 33 inches from top of plant now. Seem to be recovering slowly. Will monitor.
Any tips and recommendations always appreciated. Thanks.
