What a difference a week of good weather makes! The sun has been blazing almost constantly, and the girls have absolutely loved every single ray of it. The growth has been explosive compared to those slow first couple of weeks! Training & Mulching: 🌿 I’ve been staying on top of the LST for the ones I'm training, adjusting the ties to keep the canopy nice and even, which you can see in the updated photos. Some are already showing first signs of pre-flowering. I also added a layer of pine bark as a mulch on top of the soil for all four plants. It’s a game-changer for keeping the upper root zone happy and preventing that top layer of soil from drying out too quickly under the intense sun. Because of this, my watering schedule is super dialed in—I’m currently only needing to water twice a week. Feeding Check-In: Team Mineral: Lemon Cherry Cookies and Bruce Banner are cruising along smoothly, receiving their regular scheduled ration of Hesi mineral nutrients + a bit CalMag. Team Organic: Banana Purple Punch and Amnesia Haze are still thriving on just tap water + a bit CalMag, but I did add a tiny touch of CalMag to the mix this week just to make sure they have all the secondary nutrients they need to sustain this rapid growth. Current Standings: 📏 Lemon Cherry Cookies: This girl is an absolute beast! Growing naturally without LST, she has shot up to a whopping 38cm and is easily the giant of the family right now. The Rest: Amnesia Haze, Banana Purple Punch, and Bruce Banner are all averaging around 25cm along the main stem. It’s honestly getting a bit tricky to measure them accurately because of the LST angles, but they are looking bushy and robust! With the weather holding up, they are in prime position to keep crushing it. Can’t wait to see what next week brings!

Man these ladies are stacking javelins! Colas galore throughout their canopy. Sexy and healthy! 1 lady got a touch taller than the other 2. Shes been super cropped again to reduce her height and even out the canopy a bit. But the other 2 are getting quality exposure none the less. They got treated with Dr zhymes as a preventative. That will basically wrap up their treatments ...possibly once more with lost coast. Upped the pk intake as they are blooming strong now. Gotta keep those engines well fuelled. Response was stellar. Happy happy happy ladies. Unti next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

The girls are packing on weight and smelling really good, I’ve got 1 really nice pheno that has an amazing cookie smell. One of the girls has faded because I forgot to order more food for them but I have got some now and re-amended the pots last night, hopefully she’ll get her colour back soon.

Sep 1: there might be a bit of lower leaf damage on WP1 after the 2 C night here two nights ago. Otherwise everything seems fine and the buds are progressing. Sep 2: removed some yellowing fan leaves that had been damaged by cold temps. Sep 3: WP1 has finally stopped getting taller and is starting to flower. Good thing too cuz the days get short pretty fast now and it will be iffy as to whether this plant will finish in time. Sep 6: Well, I spoke too soon as WP1 is still getting taller, and it grew 4 inches in 3 days. This far north, it should be flowering not vegging by early September. Oh well. Lots of insect life on WP1 (ladybugs, spider, flys, few ants even) and a few aphids so it seems to be in a balance and the plant is fine. WP2 in the city was force flowered a while ago and is progressing nicely. These are in small 5-gallon pots in an attempt to limit their size and to encourage flowering.

Woche 12 Wow innerhalb von 1 Woche haben die Pflanzen ihre Farbe verändert! Man bemerkt das Blue Zushi in der Genetik steckt nicht nur an der wunderschönen fast schon schwarzen Farbe sondern auch am wirklich intensiven Terpenen Profil! Diese Woche wird wahrscheinlich schon geerntet da die ersten trichome schon Bernsteinfarbend sind.

Estas niñas dieron un “estirón” bien bueno. Después de que empezamos a subir la dosis de alimento se noto el crecimiento vegetal más acelerado. Además aplicamos king crab ( bacterias de greatwithemyco) para potenciar el desarrollo de raíces ! Y se nota 👌🏻 Ya están con un pan de raíces bien fuertes por lo tanto, se van de trasplante a maceta de 7L.

Hey yall! Another week down. A lot has happened. To start, we up-potted from the red solos into my living soil blend that I have been working on for almost a year. It's so full on living creatures and beneficials. I used to have fungus gnats a lot when working with living soil, it's almost impossible to avoid. .. Then enters beneficials; we have black soldier Flys, persimillis predatory mites, definitely earth worms, most likely a mix of night crawlers. No more fungus gnats, I highly recommend using beneficial nematodes, cucumeris and persimillis predatory mites are excellent (swirski predatory mites are expensive). Just look at the Soil Food Web and identify what pest you have, then purchase their predators from a trusted insectary. Anyways I added another 200watt LED and spread out the plants in a 2' X 4' tent. It's extremely dry in my location and having the heat on makes the air even drier. So getting my VPD stable has been an immense challenge. Right now Also we need to be able to add VPD or at least GD needs a built in calculator to help folks with VPD, Vapor Pressure Deficite. As of right now I am sitting at 0.85 VPD, so pretty good for today. I have 4 humidifiers and have had to hang moistened towels on the doors of the room I am growing in. It literally has been a huge challenge to keep the humidity high enough for my VPD to be in range for the young plants I have now. Good thing is my current humidity without running any humidifiers is perfect for the flowering stage, so I can't wait to move this along. As for topping and training; like I said I really want to move these ladies into flowering sooner than later. I have several reasons to do limited training so I can limit my veg time, also getting this crop done as fast as possible is best for my set up. Until I can get a larger house 🏠 😩 because we got a baby on the way 👶 so need to make space. I have made compost tea twice this past week, wetting the soil and also spraying the leaves. My sprayer broke so I ended up pouring the tea on the plants gently, I got worm castings on the leaves lol. Gently rubbing that off once they dried. Also I applied the tea at night. My tea recipe: Reverse Osmosis water, 2 to 4 gallons I bubble that with added minerals for a day Add 2-3 cups of Activated worm castings (To activate the castings I added about 3 gallons of high quality castings with what I consider to be nutrient amendments, SO I add = kelp meal, neem cake, organic coconut flour, organic corn meal, organic wheat flour, and organic cold milled flax seeds and let that sit for a week then add about 2 to 3 cups of that mix to the tea) I also add biology from about a cup of 2 different soil mixes I have around my compost bin, just trying to get a more diverse biology by adding those two different soil sources. And mind you the grow beds I took the soil from has been organic for many years and has a large amount of beneficials and tons of excellent biology. Other than that I bubble that for 12 to 24 hours, with as much air as I can get. I use air stones but you really need to clean them off once you are done brewing. I also have an Air Lift with a large air pump that really works great, K.I.S. Organics sells one that works great or you can build one easily with with PVC pipe and a few adapters from any Home Depot or Lowes. Also I do add DynoMyco to my roots when up-potting. They are an amazing brand that has backed up research, I think they have more propagules per gram of two strains they identified to work great with cannabis. Now having said that, each individual phenotype out of each individual and specific strain/cultivar is going to have different bacteria/fungal strains that it prefers and by growing the same strain, hopefully the same exact cut, and grow 3 to 4 cycles before you truly have the mycelium networks built and fully functional. What I am saying is stop throwing out "used" soil and go over 7 gallons, bigger the better for biodiversity. Stop buying "new" soil, amend your previous beds and pots. You will see a huge difference. Hopefully I can show you all of this with my Grow. Anyways please feel free to ask away any questions! This grow is about saving money 💰 🤑 and growing the best clean medicine as possible.

Dear diary, Week 10 total and week 1 of flower is behind us. Will just be making sure all tops are exposed and somewhat in the right place as I let them stretch for about 21 days before some defoliation. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 ⏰ Day 67: Feeding was given in the evening with a solution of 1.87ms and pH of 5.6. During this feeding, I guided most of the tops into their designated positions within the net, ensuring they are adequately spread out to receive optimal light. I also checked the runoff, which measured 2.3ms, but considering the extra dissolved salts from full draining and collection that would be higher that it really is, I will aim to bring it back to the desired range of 1.65-1.7ms to be sure. ⏰ Day 68: In the evening, the plants were fed with a solution of 1.64ms at a pH of 5.8. ⏰ Day 69: Evening feeding consisted of a solution with 1.66ms strength and a pH of 5.9. I also took the opportunity to confirm that the lights were positioned at a 48cm distance from the canopy. Additionally, I'm testing the exhaust system by venting it outside the room. Currently, the relative humidity (RH) ranges from 53-55% during lights-off and 58-60% during lights-on, while the temperatures remain around 18°C with lights off and 23.5°C with lights on. These conditions fall within the desired vPD (vapor pressure deficit) range of 0.95-1.2. ⏰ Day 70: Feeding was carried out in the evening using a solution with a strength of 1.66ms and a pH of 5.9. To enhance air circulation, I added a fan at the top of the tent. Furthermore, I checked the light intensity, which measured around 760-780ppfd. ⏰ Day 71: During the evening feeding, the plants received a solution with a strength of 1.64ms and a pH of 6.4. The RH levels range from 55-65% as the girls get more bushy, while temperatures vary between 23-18°C, depending on whether the lights are on or off. ⏰ Day 72: Evening feeding included a solution with 1.64ms strength and a pH of 6.4. ⏰ Day 73: The plants were fed with a solution having a strength of 1.66ms and a pH of 6.0. As indicated by the feeding schedule, the A+B mix was increased to 3.5ml/l. I also ensured that the lights were positioned approximately 50cm above the canopy and set to 90% intensity to provide additional heat.

This one is now finally in it's new home. Homemade Aeroponic System after 11 weeks of low T5 bulb action This is an interesting strain as the last harvest was small and not what i had expected. Hoping this new system might bring up the numbers mind you the weed is a very nice smoke with very hard buds.😎

📆 Semana 12 Llegó el momento de corte ✂️💎 La planta completa su ciclo mostrando cogollos densos, muy resinados y con una maduración ya estable. Los tricomas alcanzan un punto óptimo entre lechosos y algunos ámbar, mientras el fade final deja hojas amarillas y una degradación natural de clorofila 🍂 El aroma se vuelve más profundo, complejo y limpio, cerrando el cultivo con muy buenas sensaciones 🌿 El lavado con Master Piece ayudó a terminar el ciclo de forma limpia y equilibrada. Ahora empieza una fase igual de importante: secado y curado ? Seguimos creciendo fuerte 💪!

Going into week 9, seeing some frost on the leaves and the aroma is stronger and so nice. She looks great after the heavy defoliation last week, contrary to opinions from a few critics. Sometimes I like to find out for myself, I read many different viewpoints on defoliation and I decided to try. And it worked. Peace friends, happy growing! 🌱👍
