30/08/2025 - tenho vindo a regar alternadamente com água de garrafão e água da torneira que deixo descansar ao sol por 24h, acredito que esteja a ter um problema no EC da água mas não tenho medidor de EC. Vou comprar para a próxima run pois nesta já está muito tarde para mexer ou ajustar seja o que for. Mas de qualquer forma vou tentar esmiuçar com o que tenho para entender melhor o problema. Vai dar um fumo excelente, o cheiro está muito forte, formação de tricomas. Obrigado a toda a comunidade por me ajudar com as minhas questões. Ajudaram imenso. Estou a adorar a experiência de fazer este diário ! Obs: Com a ajuda da comunidade acabei por perceber que o problema pode ter origem em vários fatores, como dito em cima (sem medido de EC) palpito que seja o Ec da agua que tenho colocado, fiz um calculo e o Ec da agua e são cerca de 130-150uS/cm, o que por si só é muito aceitável. No entanto a composição da agua é: Ca2+ 1.5mg/L Na+ 25mg/L Cl- 19mg/L HCO3- 47.1mg/L Conclusão: Ainda teria de verificar o Ec do runoff dos vasos, mas sem medidor é-me totalmente impossível, deste modo as possíveis causas que encontrei seriam 2: o uso excessivo de chás aerados, pode ter aumentado demasiado a sacarose do solo e com isso a vida microbiana que por si só aumenta o Ec do solo, outro possível problema, que para mim será o mais provável, é a composição da agua que rego, tem uma quantidade de sódio relativamente alta (mais de 10 mg/l), sódio é um dos piores elementos em excesso no cultivo, não é um nutriente essencial para a planta (serve apenas em traços), compete com K, Ca e Mg nas raízes bloqueado a absorção, e acumula-se com facilidade no substrato pois não é consumido pela planta. Por ultimo, as quantidades de Ca e Mg são relativamente baixas o que pode criar um défice destes nutrientes com ainda mais facilidade nestas condições. Quando regado com este tipo de agua o ideal seria fazer um runoff em todas as regas de 10% (como um leve flush), para evitar acúmulos de sais no substrato, coisa que quase nunca fiz ao longo do cultivo. Vivendo e aprendendo :D MAIS UMA VEZ, OBRIGADO A COMUNIDADE GD.

01/09/2022 Finally time to flower, and all girls went into flower room at lights out.The males will be next week, don't want to put them in to early so I will carefully check every day and separate before they open their flowers. I'm guessing week 3-4 I Will select two branches on each female to selectively pollinate. 01/11/2022 Blue Matter #5 (update #5 culled male) repotted with lemon og seed Will continue in her own evolving diary. My hope is to eventually graft different cuts for a multiple variety mom plant, I can have 6 total plants And would be nice to be able to maintain only one mom.

Devo dire che queste FF mi hanno sorpreso, la Purple Lemonade di Fast Buds si è rivelata un ottima genetica con una crescita rapida ed una resistenza allo stress elevata, il super soil di Dogma Organics mi ha veramente aiutato questa volta e sono stato ricambiato con dei boccioli dal profumo eccezionale e che cercherò di curare nel migliore dei modi!!! Penso che pianterò ancora molto presto queste Fast Flowering e preleverò qualche altro clone!!!

Day 36 - It's week 5 already! The canopy is really gaining height day by day. Tied some more side branches down and adjusted the tie down on the main branch. Day 37 - Trying to figure out the correct watering amount. 1.5L was too much today will lower tomorrow to 1.2L. Day 38 - Plant is looking good today. Adjusted the tie downs on some branches. Watered with 1.3L and run off was still around 350ml so lowering tomorrow to 1.2L. Day 39 - Watering with 1.2L today. There was still no run off, I'm putting this down to the increased fan speeds, longer open tent periods and the plant growing more vegetation. My 2L watering can should arrive today, so I will be able to mix nutrients in one reservoir and water more accurately. Removed 3 of the bottom most fan leaves which had a branch large enough to support itself. Day 40 - Watered with 1.5L today. Removed 1 fan leaf and tied down a side branch. Run off was around 100ml. I also set the fan speed back to 1, as I think 2 was too strong for the plant and dehydration levels of the soil. Day 41 - Watered with 1.6L today. Run off of 400ml (25%). Getting pretty bushy now almost stretching to all sides of the tent. Day 42 - Watered with 1.4L today. Run off was 150ml (10%). She's now 32cm tall with the light hanging 36cm above the highest tips. That brings us to the end of Week 6. It looks like we are a day or two away from starting to flower properly. Bring on Week 7!

Looking at the canopy now, it really feels like everything came together at the right time. The two Northern Lights are stacking thick, frosty colas with that classic dense structure, while the Critical is entering her final phase, fading from green into those lime-yellow tones as she pulls the last energy from her leaves. The buds are fully formed and swelling hard. Everywhere you look, it’s just resin, a proper blanket of trichomes covering the flowers and sugar leaves. Under closer inspection, most trichomes are cloudy now, with the first ambers starting to show, especially on the edges. Pistils are turning orange and curling inward, another clear sign that the finish line is close. The differences between the strains really stand out at this point. The Northern Lights plants are darker, more compact, and absolutely dripping in frost, while the Critical leans lighter in color with a more pronounced fade and slightly airier, but still chunky buds. Together, they fill the tent with a balanced, even canopy — every top sitting right in the sweet spot under the light. We’re officially inside the harvest window now. From what I’m seeing, I’d estimate about 7–12 days left. It’s one of those moments where patience really matters. Chopping earlier would keep things a bit more uplifting, but giving them a few more days will push more amber trichomes and deepen the effect. Right now, they’re close — but not quite at their absolute peak. I’m letting them ride just a little longer to fully mature and finish strong. Overall, this run has been alright. The environment stayed dialed in, the plants responded well, and now they’re rewarding that with proper, high-quality flowers. Stats so far: 💧 Watering: Every third day 🌡️ Temp: 26–28°C 💦 Humidity: 65% RH 📈 VPD: ~1.18 kPa 💡 Light: ~700 PPFD

Very easy to grow in hydro, I did what I have done before, and did minimal defoliation. The plant drops some lower leaves herself as we go along anyway, as they begin to receive minimal light penetration. Northern lights had a shape that made it easy to grow with my light setup. The bigger buds were produced in the areas of the side lights, and let it also be known my harvest could have become a tad bigger if I hadn't picked off small buds and smoked them in the very end - must account for at least 30-40g or so, dunno precisely tho. The weed works like the usual homemade jazz, top notch. Top shelf. Northern lights did not disappoint, but I have pulled bigger yields of a White Rhino for example, made in the same manner. This is why it only get 8/10 stars. It simply lose two stars on yield, but the Rhino would also only have gotten eight stars, because it had deficiency problems on its own for example where this northern lights lady had zero deficiency probs - very stable plant. Recommended for both beginners and seasoned growers who are on the lookout for stable strains.

Okay guys today is day 40 of flower, and as you can see, she is stacking quite well.. yesterday I gave her her last official feeding, and she's getting straight water from here on out.. She's getting too big to take out of the tent, so i'm only going to be able to flush a little at a time.That's why i'm starting so early.. I expect the buds to start swelling in the next week or two and start putting on some real weight . ZAMNESIA SEEDS it's top notch guys.. i'm very grateful for them .. this grow has been a absolute breeze from the very beginning, and now we're just on cruise control for the next month or so give her some time to eat herself up .. God bless everybody 🙏 🙌 and happy growing ✌️.

So...eine von den 2 Pflanzen ist ins große Zelt (150×150cm) gewandert. Da wird sie von 7 l Topf in 10 Gallonen Stofftopf mit living soil (dieses mal Rezept #1 "coots mix" von Jeremy) umgetopft. Living soil "kocht" gerade. Nicht dass ich living soil Fan wäre (geringerer Ertrag) aber wenn ich wieder zwei Wochen weg bin, kann ich einfach nur Wasser tropfen lassen und die Pflanze bleibt gesund. Ah ja...Terpene sind evtl. auch besser...das konntd ich bisher aber nicht unter Beweis stellen. Die zweite Pflanze die anfangs auch auf dem Balkon war, ist immer noch im Freien unbemerkt...mache da demnächst Bilder P.S. hab jetzt Video und Bilder gemacht. Wächst nicht so schnell...aber die Farbe und der Glanz sind phenomenal

After our initial week with small issues keeping temperature and humidity consistent; we added a fan, hung our carbon filter and fixed the ducting to lower ambient temperature. We have also polyed off the entire closet to better control the environment. Our humidity and temperature have become dialed! Plants are both growing well and stretching nicely. Noticing on plant number one that it is now growing new fan leaves below where they had skipped previously. We did top it earlier in the week. Number two is growing strong, still has some browning from the heat with lack of humidity in the first week but still growing strong! Number 3 is growing strong now that the shell has fallen off. It is standing tall! Cannot wait to see how week 3 looks!

10/12: Fed today. Increased Signal and sugars/carbohydrates...added humic acid. 10/14: As a web developer, I generally give a little more slack to other developers when their website is misbehaving...these things happen.... BUT...after a solid week of 7-hour text bans, I'm becoming FUCKING HOSTILE! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QcMhOFAVzE) 10/16: Fed today....increased signal and carbs/sugars again. 10/17: My pleas to GD to fix my ability to text/chat on the site continue to go unanswered. As patient as I am, I am now at my wit's end. I encourage any of you who know me to reach out to them and ask why Silverback_Guerilla has been, what seems to be, permanently banned from chat and/or comments. https://growdiaries.com/contact

Again plants are growing very quickly and all I am taking care of is the microbes and the water. Raised rootball temps to 24c plants are liking it.

12/1 - Moving right along! Today is December 1st, Day 1 of week 9, or D63. Buds are finally starting to swell. Looking forward to seeing how they ripen over the next few weeks. Not sure how long she will last, but she still has a ways to go. This is always the hardest, but most exciting part! There are dozens of buds that are already super sticky, and if my last grow is any indication, it's only going to get better. Not sure what yield will be as this is a shared space, but I'm hoping to hit 100g from this plant. That would give me roughly 1.5gpw when counting via square footage/canopy space (270w/4plants = 67.5w/plant. 100g/67.5w = 1.48gpw). 12/5 - Uploaded video from 12/4 Thanks for stopping by the garden, and, as always, Happy Growing!

Amazing, she totally resined until her big leaves were covered with ice, something beautiful her scent of vanilla something fruity with sweet indicates that her care was well associated with her so, the most of this girl we can hope for.
