What a fantastic week. Very impressed with the progress of the ladies. Still no nutes added to the Plagron soil mix, will probably start them on a light dosage of the Top Crop auto feed in the next few days if they look like they're calling for it. Wedding Cheesecake particularly vigorous. Amazingly, one of the Orange sherbert is popping pistils and all four smell surprisingly strongly of orange sweets at only 14 days old!! Can't wait for the next week.

Day 39 to 46 of flower Basically the girls are on autopilot, with the autopots and Gaia green there really isn't much to do, both methods are super user friendly and the basic needs that need to be meet are just ph water in the reservoir every couple days and then watch them stack buds on top of buds...Occasionally I move a branch over to another square in the net to make room but Basically after the last top feeding it's just watch and weight, pun intended....

Hope you are well. Thanks for taking the time. Little main line defoliation to focus growth. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the primary energy carrier in cells, including plant cells. It powers various cellular activities like nutrient uptake, protein synthesis, and cell division. Without ATP, the plant's metabolic machinery would grind to a halt, regardless of the presence of nutrients, oxygen, or carbon. Nutrients, like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, are essential for building plant tissues and various molecules. They are incorporated into proteins, nucleic acids, and other vital compounds. While crucial, their uptake and utilization rely on ATP-driven processes. Oxygen is vital for cellular respiration, a process that generates ATP. While plants can produce ATP through photosynthesis, oxygen is essential for maximizing ATP production in mitochondria through oxidative phosphorylation. Carbon is the backbone of all organic molecules, including carbohydrates synthesized during photosynthesis. It's the fundamental building block of plant structures and fuels. However, its incorporation into organic molecules is also ATP-dependent. We don't grow we facilitate energy conversion.

I started using the bud clips to bend the longer tops where I want them. hopefully Iโ€™ll be able to get a trellis net up after my drainage trays get here and I can suck out my runoff with a pump or shop vac. Iโ€™m thinking a small transfer pump with two hoses. vac is just too loud. next grow Iโ€™m using a tilted drain table and a pump out I hope.

Critical Cure is still happy and putting out good growth. Fertilized with a ring of the Coast of Maine around the base and watered it in with a little lime water. Bugs are getting hungry so the plants got some neem oil spray. Heat wave going through right now. Please forgive my slurring in the video, it's been a long week and my brain is addled๐Ÿ˜œ

Happy New Year!!! Over the past week I did some HST bending on my photos and cut down 2 of the 3 Blackberryโ€™s. The branches are starting to recover and straighten out after the HST now. I still have some issues with pale leaves and a few spots here and there. Iโ€™m going to try adding some Dolomite Lime with the next watering and think that should help with the paleness. Iโ€™m also going to up the amount of CalMag and Mammoth P to see if that helps with the spotting. Iโ€™m not sure if I should see the spotted leaves recover or if the spots will remain. I suspect the spots will remain on the existing leaves regardless of what I do at this point, but hopefully no new spotting will develop. The lights went off before I was done taking pics, so some pics will look a little different. The pics with the lights on I had to color correct, they still look a little more on the yellow side than in reality, but much closer to reality than the pre-color corrected versions. Once the lights went off I turned the flash on for my camera, those pics did not need any color correction. You can see the differences in the pics of all plants, the first 2 are color corrected with the lights on, the last 2 are taken with a flash and no color correction. Also all close up pics of the Critical+ are with the lights off and flash on. I read several books on cannabis over the past few days, some good, some not so much. One that I liked was โ€œMarijuana Cultivation Reconsidered: The Science and Techniques For Huge Indoor Yieldsโ€ by Read Spear. This book is available on Amzonโ€™s Kindle Unlimited service, which costs $9.99/month, but they offer a free 30 day trial (which is what Iโ€™m using at the moment). Reedโ€™s book is broken down into 3 sections, the first and third go fairly deep into the science behind growing, he does a pretty good job at breaking it down in easy to understand terms, but I had to read several sections 2 or 3 times to really get it (or just move on with as much understanding as I could digest). The second section is the nuts and bolts of growing. Most was a review but there were several topics he touched on I hadnโ€™t thought of in a while. And again its well written. He also offers the section only in a separate book called โ€œSmall Spaces, Big Yieldsโ€. If you are not interested in going deeper into the science behind growing, โ€œSmall Spaces, Big Yieldsโ€ is what I would recommend (if interested in reading books on cannabis). I took some notes while reading and Iโ€™m going to add some of these notes in my dairy updates over the next few weeks. This week Iโ€™m going to include a note on electrical, this should be a fairly basic concept, but it is super important IMOโ€ฆ โ€œElectrical Items In a sealed grow room or in a tent, you will have water pooling on the floor from time to time. There is no avoiding this. Mop it up when you see it, and never put your electrical gear directly on the floor. Never. Not even for a moment. In fact, let me stress this point in bold capital letters. ALL ELECTRICAL GEAR MUST BE MOUNTED SECURELY ON A WALL OR TENT POLE.โ€ -Read Spear Iโ€™ll add more did bits like this in my diaries over the upcoming weeks. If anyone has any good book recommendations please let me know in the comments. Iโ€™m looking for books that might not be as popular as the ones by Jorge Cervantes or Ed Rosenthal (Iโ€™ve read those). I did just order โ€œTrue Living Organicsโ€ by The Rev which Iโ€™m looking forward to reading. But Iโ€™m looking for more. I really want to step it up and learn as much as possible. Your comments, feedback and recommendations are very much appreciated! Until next time, Happy Growing! Stay Positive! And have an amazing 2019!!!

**Week 8 - Third Week of Flower** Things are getting wild in the Donutz tent! After the insane stretch last week, the plants have turned the space into a full-on jungle. The start of Week 8 called for drastic measures, and the results are setting the stage for explosive bud production. **Key Updates**: - **Aggressive Defoliation**: On Day 1 of the third flower week, the plants underwent a *brutal* defoliation. Every bud site that had started to develop its own leaves was stripped of its fan leaves, allowing light to flood the canopy. Even the smallest sites now have excellent exposure, giving them the best chance to mature into chunky nugs in the coming weeks. Despite the intensity of the trim, the plants are resilient and primed to bounce back strong. - **Boosted Nutrients**: To support the plants after the stress of defoliation, I added another 5-6g of Greenhouse Feeding Bloom per plant. This ensures the soil stays nutrient-rich and gives the plants the resources they need to recover and thrive. - **Watering**: Still rocking reverse osmosis (RO) water, ensuring clean and efficient hydration without any surprises. **Observations**: - The canopy is significantly cleaner and more open, with light now reaching deeper into the lower sections. - The plants are handling the defoliation well, with no immediate signs of stress or shock. - Bud sites are already looking promising, with visible development and an even distribution across the canopy. **Looking Ahead**: The next few weeks will be all about letting the plants recover and watching the buds stack up. With improved light penetration and a fresh dose of nutrients, everything is lined up for some impressive development. The Donutz are thriving, and the Florida Gang vibes are at an all-time high โ€” the tent is set to deliver big!

April 10, day 21, the Euforia is starting to take off. Lots of branching that will need to be trained low and wide to fill up as much of the 6sqft space as possible. I turned on my second HLG 100 light to bring the lighting up to 200w. I did this to make sure as many of the new branches have light as possible, as some of the fan leaves have grown is very thick and the plant is quite stocky. I raised the distance of the lights as I don't want to overdo it with the second one running and the internodal spacing is already tight. I pushed up the EC slightly without any issue, so 1.4 is around where I will stay through veg. I also have allowed the PH to range lower as I am less concerned about cal mag issues at this point. Fertigations will continue to be 1x per day untill the roots spread more and the coco dries quicker. Then it will be up to 2x or 3x per day as needed. April 12, day 23, the Euforia is growing well, while remaining very tight and bushy. I did some minor LST tying two dominant side branches down to start opening up the plant, but will need a bit more height and growth before I can continue with more areas of the plant. April 13 day 24, lots of vigorous growth and the LST is working to expose more new growth to light for this very dense little plant. Increases fertigations back to twice daily, for 20 second watering intervals. The 26 seconds of watering was barely producing runoff now that the plant is larger, so this increased watering should help keep the coco well flushed even when the plant is significantly large. April 15, day 26, removed some leaves blocking nodes and lower growth that will never develop. I don't like removing leaves when I don't have to, but the plant is growing in thick enough there needs to be more room for growth around the center of the plant. Also performed some more LST and leaf tucking. April 16 day 27, LST widening the plant and opening up the center to new growth. Removed a few leaves as needed. The Euforia is growing well and I am hoping that by the end of the flowering stretch it will take up the majority of the tent. One topmost branch that was growing in thin after the FIM had to be removed while still fairly young. It's connection point seemed so thin it made the branch extremely fragile, and I decided I did not want the risk of it falling off after spending a lot of energy on bud production that could be spent elsewhere. When taken off I could confirm that it was around 1mm of the branch that was actually connected to the main stock, which just isn't enough. I will keep this in mind for the future in terms of FIMming vs topping. RIP lil' branchy.
