I'm not applying any type of training to this lady,she has performed a big stretch in her first week of flower,looks absolutely gorgeous,sometime she es tress a little with heat. However the super soil she's living in and the lactobacillus liquid I make homemade is helping her so much,it's a pleasure to see her every morning

viel hat sich nicht mehr getan seit dem letzten eintrag. so richtig bernsteinig wollten die trichome nicht werden obwohl ich den pflanzen zwei wochen mehr zeit als geplant eingeräumt habe. zum trocknen hab ich die nur grob getrimmt. die feinarbeit kommt nach dem trocknen. da im zelt noch die white truffle stehen hängen die freaks erstmal im schrank. die bedingungen zum trocknen sind wetterbedingt gerade sehr schlecht. bei 70% raumluftfeuchtigkeit wird so schnell nix trocknen. vielleicht wird es ja doch noch sommer in den nächsten tagen.

well she was planted in May late, and I trained from her the start topped her 50 times so she pushes out then tied down and left to grow what dense rock baseball buds bigger than my whole arms

I made a video update for week 10. Remember to turn on audio of you want to hear the scrambled voice of freedom.

All plants look happy, healthy and green. Added some cheap Wilkos Organic Plant Feed because why the hell not? Next 2 weeks will increase PK for peak flower. This plant is on the left of the timelapses.

@ 1.5 kPa Plants are really thirsty right now already missed optimal watering windows because of that.

This thing was very easy to grow. Liked low PPMs in flower. Around 600 was plenty for her. Will report taste and effects when curing is complete.

She hermied on us so this may be the last time we plant an unknown seed indoors, this set us back about 3 weeks. ..we plan on putting all of this plant towards edibles ..This wasn't a total waste imo..we learned a valuable lesson on taking unnecessary risks :)

Day 28 - Full watering/feed to run-off 10%-20% at same strength as previous. (50% of maker recommended strength for coco use + cmx + root enhancer + kept extract organic additive) Day 31 - Decided lower lights by around 30cm 120cm to about 90cm. After about 8 hours the plants all suddenty wilted. They stay wilted through the night cycle as well, so I raised the lights back to where they were and they have bounced back, so I won't suddenly drop the lights by as much. If I do lower them it will be incremental. Day 32 - Bought a six fin 800w oil heater for the tent. Am going to place this under the oscillating fan and set it aiming to keep the tent around the 25-27c range. Hopefully this has the tent sorted for the rest of the grow. The humidity has been high lately due to the weather, so this might be about the only factor left to address, and I will look at getting a dehumidifier for the grow room if needed. Day 33 - Full watering to run-off 10%-20% at same strength as previous. (50% of maker recommended strength for coco use + cmx + root enhancer + kept extract organic additive) - Ordered humidity controller for extractor fan. - Ordered Temperature controller for Heater - Ordered IP Camera for remote monitoring Tent is now running fully sealed and using passive inlet and carbon filtered extraction to roof space. Plants are around 20-40cm high and the lights are 85cm above the canopy on full 480w. Day 33 - I have reduced the Light intensity from 480w to 420w. This seemed to really get a good response from the plants. I think as they've grown taller and the light intensity has quietly increased at the newly heightened canopy level the plants have been getting stressed. Day 34 - I've reduced then light intensity from 420w to 280w. I am new to the quantum boards and the concept of "too much light" so working out how much intensity, how much distance and so forth for the different stages of plants growth. I have a gut feeling 280w at 80cm might be a touch under-powered but I'll give it a full light-cycle or two to judge leaf growth and colour and make a call on whether or not to increase it or leave it as is. Day 35 - I found plants wilting during hthe night cycle without fan air circulation. So I've set the oscillating fan to run during night hours. Day 35 - I've turned up the heater a touch to bring the tent temp to around 26c. Infrared gun shows leaf temps to be around 24-25c which ideally I want to get to 27-29c - I'll aim for this metric once the other environmental factors are sorted (ventilation seems sorted so mainly just dialing in the light intensity). * I'm looking forward to setting up the heater on temperature controller, and putting the carbon filter ventilation on humidity control, and then mounting an IP camera in the tent. This should all be here in around 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to being able to view the temp/humidity and see the plants live without having to actually open the grow room. * The infrared temp gun is proving invaluable in testing leaf, coco and pot temperatures around the tent, which is giving a great view of how the heat from the heater/fan arrangement is being distributed - it shows a less than 1-2c degree variance across the tent which is just great. * Hopefully week 6 to come will be one with a lot less wilting incidents and the week that this tent achieves a somewhat final and stable environment optimised for plant growth and happiness. But so far every time I think I've got things perfected, another variable comes into play and I need to tweak something. Maybe by the end of this harvest I will have the whole process refined to a smoother less reactionary process.

Day1: Tent is getting a bit crowded so I had to flip the switch and let the stretching begin! Raised the lamps about 10cm to get some more spacing between the nodes and removed a lot of the leaf mass to promote the lower branches grow. Sunset Sherbet #1 had its newest growth tips turning a little yellow and I'm not sure yet is it overdose/deficiency/heat issue or just a little pH mishap from overwatering.. gave her a little less nutrients to see how it responds. Gonna wait a little more time between next watering to let the soil dry up a little better (saw a fungus gnat flying in the tent and I don't want those f*ckers to overpopulate.) Day3: Some training, all seems fine Day4: Raised the lamps a bit again, not sure if the other Sunset Sherbet and now OG Kush too is suffering from mild nutrient burn or light stress Day6: My hydrohomie fucked up the Gelato#45 cuts I gave him so I took Peyote Critical as my next mother victim. Took 12 good sized shoots from below which I would've lollipopped anyways.. Hope she wont mind since I wasn't planning on defoliating/lollipopping this soon. Planning on training at around day 10 and 20 give or take and then I'll let them grow stress-free. Stretching ain't so crazy at least yet and the canopy is staying pretty much at the same height. Next defoliation/lollipopping I think I will remove all the bindings to avoid snapping the stems. All girls are now showing at least few pistils. Tried using the blooming leds on Viparspectra for two days and the temps are staying pretty much at 28C at most but switched back to just blues since not sure if there's a bit of light stress on SS/OGK. Will switch to full power when the stretching ends.

Ehi ragazzi come va questa settimana?! Tutto bene?! La mia settimana è stata un alti e bassi di momenti di merda ... Purtroppo la ragazza tropicanna ho dovuto toglierlgla di mezzo xké faceva un odore davvero potente ed era esageratamente grande! Purtroppo stupidamente mi sono fatto prendere dal panico dalla situazione accaduta al mio amico che aveva i miei messaggi e numeri sul telefono.. vabbè è andata così ormai.. mentre devo dire che la Cherry cola della fastbuds sta diventando davvero una ragazza tozza e massiccia , con internodi stretti ma robusti! Sta crescendo molto bene , le God sto un po' di orgatrex e bactrex per continuare a fare vivere i microorganismi presenti nel suolo ! Ho trovato delle foglie con macchie marroni e arricciate che sembrano indicare un deficit di fosforo , ma sinceramente non sono ancora così esperto da capirlo velocemente.. spero continui a crescere e riempire tutta la grow , a giudicare dalle foglie a ventaglio davvero imponenti le cime saranno altrettanto grandi spero! Grazie alla luce di Mars hydro sempre di qualità superiore e agli strain di Fadtabuds posso dire che questa bellissima esperienza è potuta divenire realtà !

Things are going great in this tent, a couple brown calcium def spots forming in a few areas and as it goes we're currently out of cal-mag lol, we should have more delivered in about 2 days...I really like the structure of these plants, a few long (fat) colas always make for easy cleaning/drying and the SP-3000 gets in there deep..we could never run this close together under our old LEDs or without bending them sideways but we've had no issues yet keeping everything vertical under the MarsHydro...The temps are a little high and we're still watering this tent more than the others but airflow is really good and the plants seem happy for now....we removed a bunch of lower growth from most of them this week so they'll put that energy towards the stuff on top and minimize "popcorn"..the smell is just amazing, this is a very hearty and beautiful strain..I'm happy we were able to grab a half dozen clones..all the Widow clones we took are well into veg at this point ...💪🐱🌱....we live in zone 5 (US) and are limited on what we can grow outdoors but I think with these being a "fast" strain we could flower them all outside..we'll play it by ear lol..well thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings, we'll update if anything exciting happens midweek...have a safe and happy Memorial Day (US) Growmies!! ❤️💡🌱😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

- Day 57 Noticed quite a dramatic drop in pH today, went from 6.0 to 5.3 in one day. I noticed one of my bubblers was blocked, put in a new one and it's fixed now, hope the issue was due to that. the plant is doing good otherwise. Brought the pH back up to 6.2 now. Day 58 Was happy to see today that the pH drift has been fixed! Seems like the broken bubbler was the problem. pH only dropped down to 6.1 today. I topped the reservoir up with some 6.1 pH water to keep it there. Happy this is fixed now . Day 59 Sadly the water bubbler was not the issue :/. pH dropped down again from 6.1 to 5.3. I fear that she is just drinking so much compared to how small the water reservoir is, which makes the nutrient concentration very strong, brining down the pH. I did a res change today, Let's see what it looks like tomorrow. Day 60 pH went up to 6.5 today after the water res change, which seems to be how it always goes. It goes up the first 1-2 days then it drops hard the next days after. I gave it 6.1pH water today topped the res up more than usual because I will be gone for 2 days, hopefully the pH will stay somewhat stable until I get back. Day 62 Back from my long weekend! The reservoir still had about 1 liter in it, she been drinking a lot. Came home and immediately refilled the reservoir. Noticed pH had also dropped so 5.1!! With the newly added water now it's sitting at 5.9 now. Seems like she is doing well however. Some of the of lower fan leaves yellowed a lot more but that is probably due to all the flowers developing right now. Day 63 Water topped up again with 1.5 liters of pH 6.6 water, which brought the pH back up to 6.1.
