WEEK #22 - SLOW AS A DEAD SNAIL First, i downscaled the photos and used the affinity standard balance filters. Do the photos look better now? Maaan, either i have problems with my eyes or nothing is happening. Well, nothing but shitty, crispy leaves on Slush Mint Cake, although i have watered a bit more the last days. Have i done something wrong on the final stretch? Seems like it. Might be "stress" from switching brand of fertilizer last minute, maybe pH off/a bit too low (seems like sub 6.0 1 or 2 times), or not watering enough the weeks before and now the plants are just too senior with small-ish buds. Or do YOU know any reasons for that? Next run will be just standard max. topping. As SMC will be harvested somewhat soonish (likely a few buds each day in the upcoming week - depending on how much time i have to spare) i took a bunch of photos and details (let's see what the maximum capacity of GD is 😇), however again no real progress in amber trichomes. You've got me stumped. SMC: Took a little test nugget during last week, and another one today. The smell ist still super delicious: fresh-lemony-sweet-frutiness. And the blossoms just do look pretty pretty. 😍 Skywalker: Your time will come! SUPPOSED duration of bloom: Skywalker 9-10 weeks / SMC 8-9 weeks IS: 12 weeks ..and the calyxes of SMC do look prety decent, although not thickest buds. Next update might be a harvest post!

Start of week 7 and all plants are looking great. Added the net to hold them later but I may take it out. Ran into a slight issue…my plants got so tall that I was not able to provide enough PPDF to the lower stems (I need a bigger tent and better lighting…in time). As a result a caused light burn on the top leaves. Additionally, early in my grow I was using Mass Pro. That alone with amendments and I foliaged early with Foop. I believe the Foop and Mass Pro were too much for these plants to handle. Still rocking though…

Human Body 65% Oxygen (in all liquids and tissues, bones, and proteins) 18% Carbon (everywhere) 10% Hydrogen (in all liquids and tissues, bones, proteins 3% Nitrogen (in all liquids and tissues, proteins 1,5% Calcium (lungs, kidney, liver, thyroid, brain, muscles, heart, bones) 1% Phosphorus (urine, bones, DNA) 0,35% Potassium (enzymes) 0,25% Sulphur (proteins) 0,15% Sodium (in all liquids and tissues) (in terms of salt) 0,05% Magnesium (lungs, kidney, liver, thyroid, brain, muscles, heart) The average adult male contains about 140 g of K(Potassium); the level varies with body weight and muscle mass. We ingest about 2.5 g per day of K from our food and excrete about the same amount. 0.0118 % of that is K40 The answer is that they were present when our earth was formed. Any radioactive material originally present at the formation of the earth would have decayed and disappeared if its half-life was short compared to the age of the earth. However, if its half-life were long, close to or greater than the age of the earth, then such materials would not have disappeared but are still with us today. There are several radioelements in this category, such as the well-known elements uranium and thorium. Thorium (Th232) has a half-life of 14,000,000,000 years, uranium has two long-lived radioisotopes; U238 has a half-life of 4,500,000,000 years, and U235 has a half-life of 710,000,000 years. These give rise to the radium and thorium atoms found in all humans, acquired from the food we eat. That food, of course, obtained these materials from the soil in which it grew or on which it grazed. Potassium is also in this category. There are actually three potassium isotopes: K39, a stable isotope, is the most abundant, at 93.26 % of the total; K41 is next in abundance at 6.73 % and is also a stable isotope. The potassium isotope of interest is a radioactive isotope, K40. It is present in all potassium at a very low concentration, 0.0118 %. It has a very long half-life, 1,260,000,000 years. When it decays 89 % of the events give rise to the emission of a beta ray with maximum energy of 1.33 MeV. The other 11 % of the decays produce a gamma-ray with an energy of 1.46 MeV The forces required to forge thorium 232 can only be harnessed when traveling close to or at the speed of light, so essentially what I'm getting at is 0.0118% of every person alive is formed of the same element that was forged in the anvil of creation itself. We are all one & the same German chemist Johann Wolfgang Dobereiner attempted to classify elements with similar properties into groups of three elements each. These groups were called ‘triads’. Dobereiner suggested that in these triads, the atomic mass of the element in the middle would be more or less equal to the mean of the atomic masses of the other two elements in the triad. An example of such a triad would be one containing lithium, sodium, and potassium. The atomic mass of lithium 6.94 and that of potassium is 39.10. The element in the middle of this triad, sodium, has an atomic mass of 22.99 which is more or less equal to the mean of the atomic masses of lithium and potassium (which is 23.02). 9 controls the 6 and 3. The Limitations of Dobereiner’s Triads are : All the elements known at that time couldn’t be classified into triads. Only four triads were mentioned – (Li,Na,K ), (Ca,Sr,Ba) , (Cl,Br,I) , (S,Se,Te). 2. Newland’s Octaves English scientist John Newlands arranged the 56 known elements in increasing order of atomic mass in the year 1866. He observed a trend wherein every eighth element exhibited properties similar to the first. Azomite contains 180ppm of thorium. Your plant will thank you, you are welcome. Most farmers do have not a proper understanding of what is Azomite and how to use it in gardening, especially if they practice organic farming. Continuous propagation and leaching effects of water deplete the essential minerals and micro-nutrients from the soils. Such soils remain weak, not able to support the production of fruits and vegetables. Azomite mineral contains micronutrients that supplement the soil. It also balances the minerals for growth and overall productivity. Constant use of this mineral rejuvenates your soil renewing its potency again. Azomite is a naturally mined mineral product that is ready to use. It’s a unique rock that comes from a mine in central Utah. Azomite requires no mixing or special preparation before use. It is derived from volcano ash that spewed out millions of years ago. It contains the widest range of minerals of all the rock dust in the world. Azomite provides plants with 70% essential elements. These elements include magnesium, calcium, potassium, and silicon for plant growth. Facts About Azomite Fertilizer It’s a natural mineral – 100% natural with no fillers or additives Does not contain any harmful elements Requires no special preparation before use It’s odorless – very friendly to use Does not restrict water penetration or aeration Is easily broken down and absorbed into the soil Does not burn plants.

She's still going! I have no idea what's going to happen, but I'll continue feeding her. She's nothing special to look at but that's fine. I was removing a withered fan leaf and I ripped off one of the flowers with it so I feel horrible. I put her under the roof in the Cure's place since that got chopped. I don't know what else to report. I'm still nursing her along, and I'll continue to do so until she says she's done.

Chopped down the last 2 plants on day 92! Last week really brought out some nice purple colors. First 2 plants are already harvested dried and jarred,.took about 10 days. I assume these will be done in 10 days as well, when I'll post the harvest log. D89 4L

Outdoors........time passes slowly.... Tropical weather here, this week. Hot morning, evening storms , cooler nights, high humidity, wind. What else? No problems to report, fantastic grow, girls full of life. Lots of work to bend and rearrange plant's shape every day, sometimes twice a day. Defoliation. Plant is responding fantastically. My Royal Gorilla has one branch with an uncommon mutation. The stem from 4th internode is flat and not circular. From the 7th node, although now plant shows alternate growth, two perfectly identical branches are growing closer to each other, a twin bud mutation. Precisely for this mutation I decided to apply a little supercropping by bending the branch with a flat section at 90 °. I hope it wasn't late and the double buds will recover. #update August 6, twin buds perfectly recovered from supercropping so I can hope for a monster bud!

Everything's in flush mode, didnt take any pics this week we had alot of work to do with the flush and harvest of the big citradellic and everything is so close to the chop I figured I would just wait until the day of to get the final pics. The video is from Tuesday which is when the harvest happened. The fades are coming in hot and the aromas are heavy filling the tent. Over the next week they will be coming down and will do another update.

124.5 grams DRY WEIGHT on plant 1 When I removed the plant stakes, all the branches started hanging super low to the ground. Satisfying feeling.The buds foxtailed, which is such a pain in the ass to trim. Nice smoke tho tastes good etc. This one was a big stretcher which caused large canopy heigh differences, bit annoying. 76.3 grams DRY WEIGHT on plant 2 More density than on plant 1, these didnt foxtail. Nothing too special 118.2 grams DRY WEIGHT on plant 3 This plant has the best nugs out of all 4. Super dense (see vids) and they smell so fruity. Super sticky, i had to switch trimming scissors after every bud. Also have 100g of trim that I'll sift and mess around with.

Hello fellow growers, I am pleased to start this new journey with you. I am also particularly excited since I am going to grow a Mephisto Genetics strain for the very first time, the famous Double Grape. I know you shouldn't believe the hype, as Public Enemy used to say, but it's hard to ignore the dithyrambic reviews when it comes to Mephisto. I sowed the seed directly in the substrate and it was popping out 3 days later. Right now the seedling is under my Mars Hydro TS1000, brightness set at 25%, lights are 80cm away. During my last grows I set it up to the max at all stages of growth, this time I decided to proceed differently and increase gradually. Please let me know in the comments if you think I should just push it to the max right away. I would like to thank HESI nutrients team for sending me a great Starter Pack! Shout out to Hesi_Official, can't wait to test your products! Thanks for reading and stay tuned for weekly updates! 😎

This was a good week, just starting to see bud sites pop up and now flower has officially begun. I noticed that the Primal Punch still looked a tad under fed so I blasted everyone with 1 scoop of Grow and 2 scoops of bloom (age old nutrients) I never used dry nutes before so here's hoping that I can stay on top of this grow and produce some sweet buds! Depending on when I harvest there may be another 9-12 weeks of flower. I'll pop in some more details after I get some shut eye, much love, Meus <3

01/19 - Tied her down completely (HST) - full light coverage - running in 2x2 until clones in 3x3 are complete then transplanting into 3x3 - offsetting clean water and nute feeds. 01/24 - She got a little funky on me a couple days ago after the tent and light transfer, She is in recovery mode right now - She should be back to norm by Mon - Tuesday.
