This week I started with some nutrients. Only 1/4 of the recommended dose. Tried some LST for the first time as well as some defoliation. I just hope I didn’t do too much.

End of week 1. All 3 plants have their true leaves. The stems seem to be developing nicely but I was hoping for more leaf development. I still need to create more humidity. My exhaust fan still vents too much of it. I added a second camera and I hope to start adding some time lapse videos. Overall a good week! Still trying to learn my environment and tweak where I can!

I gave the 8 Ball Kush and the Blue OG a full 9 weeks in flower , we started the trim yesterday and will finish up today , now it’s cleanup time and get the room reloaded with 8 Ball Kush and Zombie Kush, I will update next weekend on final weight.

Week 8, Day 63. September 22, 5:38pm Kaboom Mama is doing very well! She continues to grow and buds are beginning to form. I realized the plant needed more nutrients and have given full strength of all nutrients and she appears to be doing well. She now requires water every 24-36 hours.Two days ago I give her 1.5 liters of water with with pH down, armor Si, Cal mag, and half a teaspoon of Recharge. Today, I gave her a gallon of water today with all nutrients except Recharge. I plan to water again within 36 hours with armor Si, Calmag and Big Bud. The fabric bag is becoming calcified so I will flush before the next full feed. As always, thank you for stopping by. Happy growing and prosperous harvesting 💯💚

Grow is going exceptionally well now. Calmag Lockout fixed with new white hairs dailyane noticable bud growth. The amnesia auto is getting close to harvest, going to give it another week. Tricombs are mostly cloudy few clear. I believe it's around day 73 from planting. The smell of the Jack plants is overwhelming. That strong destinctive piney smell. Ben a minute since I smoked some Jack, looking forward to it. Check out the video too stoned to take good pics, it gives a better perspective. Cheers, Growdaddy

Start of week 3. Feeding a little more consistently. 1gal of the above every 3 days.

WEEK 8 (04/18/2021 - 04/24/2021) Day 59: 04/18/2021 Defoliated some growth from each plant before I installed my custom-built SCRoG net made of: pvc piping, drywall screws, and jute twine for the netting. It’s slightly smaller than the tent, 41”x41” with a second level for another net. It fits perfectly, leaving plenty of room to work around the edges and move the fan around if needed. Immediately after defoliation and installing the net, I watered using ½ strength Botanicare Hydroguard. Watering was different. I used a battery-powered liquid transfer pump to help water the plants a little faster and more efficiently. Also helps to reach the plants I can’t access as easily in the corner. I am unable to test/collect any of the runoff at the moment since installing the net, which wouldn’t be an issue by itself, but my saucers are just barely large enough to fit the base of the 5 gallon pots into. I have no way of sticking a pH pen or TDS meter in the runoff. They simply won't fit between the pot and the saucer. This is extremely unfortunate, as I am now unable to monitor the ppm of the soil with each watering. Will have to pick up some larger saucers soon or think of another solution. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 61: 04/20/2021 ‘Tis the season to be medicated. Happy Holidaze! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 62: 04/21/2021 Upping the amount of water going into the pots this watering. Previously I was doing 1 gallon of water per 5 gallon pot. I’m increasing the amount of water to 1.5 gallons. Hopefully that will produce enough runoff for taking measurements. It’s going to be a painfully difficult task to take readings but I really need to know what the condition of the soil is right now. Will not be using any nutrients this time considering the runoff was kind of high when I fed on 4/10. This seems a little risky though since it has been 11 days since a nutrient feed, but I’d rather not burn the plants by blindly adding nutrients. Will return. Hopefully with measurements. (some amount of time later) Tap water: 245ppm, 6.1 pH (9 gallons) pH Down: 30ml JB#1 - 2730ppm, 7.0 pH JB#2 - 2290ppm, (pH pen died again on this plant) AP#1 - 2380ppm, 6.9 pH AP#2 - 3610ppm (seems extremely high), 7.0 pH GC#1 - 2320ppm, 6.9 pH GC#2 - 2340ppm, 7.1 pH I don’t know what was up with the measurements on the AP#2. The saucers the pots are sitting in are a little small so I think the ppm might have been reading high because the bottom of the fabric pot was sitting in the runoff. Maybe I’m just saying that to reassure myself. Either way, the 3000+ ppm seemed very off. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Day 66: 04/24/2021 Defoliation + weaving/securing branches through SCRoG. I'm not 100% sure that the SCRoG was the most optimal technique of choice given the very limited space within the grow tent. Also, I almost feel like I installed the screen a little late. Maybe not? Either way, I have read about them and the potential of increased yields, which got me excited enough to build one to try out for myself. I was aware going into it that there would be some difficulties using a SCRoG. I can no longer move my pots around is the main thing. Not being able to move the pots around has increased the difficulty factor of watering/feeding. I now have to access 3 different sides of the tent to get all 6 plants. I've clipped all the ties holding the branches down from previous LST sessions. There was just no way I was going to spend hours weaving in and out of all the ties trying to water each plant while also dealing with the difficulties of a SCRoG obstructing the work space. That would also wreck my poor back. From here, things are going to get real exciting. Tomorrow (04/25) I am rescheduling the light cycle to 12/12 to initiate flowering. Another 60-70 days to go, growing buds and packing on trichomes. With that said, I'm excited to have made it through my very first full vegetative cycle. I've definitely made my fair share of mistakes, as expected, but as long as I keep learning from them future harvest will only continue to increase in quality and yield. Thank you for stopping by and checking out the diary this week! All your kind words and encouragement are fuel. Until next time! 🙏

Tropicanna Banana Week 13 11L Pot LED: SP250 (245W) for Flow. Stage Canna COCO Mineral Nutrients: 👇 Sensi Cal-Mag Xtra: 1 ml/L Power House Part A: 1.5 ml/L Calcium Plus Part B: 1.5 ml/L Stimulus: 1.5 ml/L Bud Explosion: 1.5 ml//L

На этой недели была проблема, маленько напутал с удобрениями, и получился дефицит питательных веществ, поэтому видны жёлтые листья внизу растения. Поливаю каждый день по 2.5 литра, 2 дня поливаю чистой водой, на 3 день даю удобрения, 5 мл на 2.5 литра воды, PPM получается 730, PH держу от 6.0 до 6.8. Трихом мало на растении, возможно такая генетика, есть молочные уже. Думаю что ещё неделю покормлю и на следующей неделе сделаю флаш и переведу на воду, если есть рекомендации по флашу, прошу в комментарии, спасибо.

it actually behaved exactly as indicated by the breeder. a bit of a shame that it was so humid in germany and it got mouldy. but otherwise it was very resistant. a beautiful and easy to grow plant. a classic

Luego de un par de semanas full trabajo me dediqué a ordenar un poco el jardín, revisar las plantas, reubicar algunas y realizar una respectiva poda de algunas hojas para que llegue luz a todos los brotes. Algunas finalizando la tercera semana de floración, otras en su segunda semana de floración. Está costando mantener los parámetros, ya comenzó la primavera por lo que aumenta la temperatura en mi espacio, pero se está logrando. Se ha aplicado riego de Organic Bloom de B.A.C + Nirvana de Advanced Nutrients a partir de la segunda semana de floración. En dosis bajas para ver cómo andan. Muy fuerte el olor dulce que están dejando todas, luego las revisaré mas detalladamente para especificar un poco los olores de cada plantas. La cantidad de resina es impresionante.

Things are coming to an end for pheno #3! She’s starting to fade out nicely and her smell is ripe. I’m thinking another week or two weeks max before she gets chopped! I’m currently feeding with plain water and microbes to let this girl finish out nicely 👌

Next week is the last. Switched to Overdrive. Smells like rotten fruits (overripe banana and melon)

Day 51 13.06.2023 Small plant, small feed. I'm still fertilizing at flower week 1 plan with no Nitrogen and the plant shows ZERO defects... rather the opposite. This 3 finger leaves are very unique. This will leave memories. She looks awesome. I like her <3 ###################################################################################################### Day54 16.06.2023 Lady shows signs of Potassium deficiency i ll feed her tomorrow with way more bloom - think 2-3 more

Day 21, transplanted them in the autopot, just a few more days handwatering now

Looking strong looking healthy. No complaints. As expected flying along. The conditions above are the tent conditions roughly. But there’s not tent available lol. So these puppies all live under a desk for now with those spider leg LED stations. They’re really cool. Gréât from rotation. As you all know the rules by now here. Parc stays open 24/7. This bud ain’t gonna grow itself. People out there planting trees all day everyday 😂🙏🏼💚
