- WEEK 8 -
----- Day 50 -----
Woo hoo. End is in sight and the plants are still PACKING the pounds on.
Big Bertha is 11 inches long, 2 inches wide.
The hidden massive Gertha is 8 inches in circumference in the middle in just bud alone and isn't even the largest part of this 8 inch long nug...
Fed 1150ppm 13L 6.4pH
5-15+ days left.
2-4 days till I start looking into trichome finish period.
Forgot to take a regular full shot and shots of tropicanna glookies. oh well. Later tonight if I remember.
I stopped bud candy cause I'm using a lot more molasses and its literally a sugar in itself so why put in bud candy which is just sugars... seems redundant.
----- Day 51 -----
Easy day of watching.
Some nice bud shots today. The whole basement smells of weed candy. Back right Tropicanna is pineapple gummy bear, front right is just gummy bear.
Wedding Cake is like sweet weed, you get the regular smell of pot but instead of skunky its sweet but that Tropicanna is just alllll candy no weed smell at all.
I did the first 60x shot today. 5% cloudy 95% clear on the Tropicanna. Long ways to go.
I'll be doing the Wedding Cake later tonight, got side tracked.
----- Day 52 -----
Fed 1200ppm 6.4ph 12 Liters
Tropicanna Glookies is going full blown purple. Should be covered in dark purple coloration within the week.
Wedding Cake is just fat. Super fat large nugs.
Easy day. Forgot to take trichome pics of Wedding Cake will do that later today probably.
Well, the largest bud is 1 foot in circumference now... rofl
----- Day 53 -----
Easy day. Fed some water, they're getting thirsty again.
I'm going to do a 13L feeding , then next day 5L water. So that's what I did today.
I'll be dropping the Kool Bloom Powder & CaliMagic by day 56 and only feed 1/2 strength molasses only.
Will pick the buds off as they finish, not gonna do 1 big chop unless it manages to turn out that way.
Colors are going wild.
Will check Wedding Cake & Tropicanna trichomes before lights out will update pics then.
----- Day 54 -----
1300ppm 13L 6.4ph fed
Here's some pics.
Wedding Cake is nowhere near ready by the trichomes. Barely any cloudy, no amber.
----- Day 55 -----
Tropicanna really turning purple now starting to infect the leaves at top of canopy.
Can't wait for what Day 63 holds for all these ladies.
Not going to check trichomes till probably day 58
Easy day, last fert feed with chemical nutrients tomorrow, after that its just molasses.
----- Day 56 -----
Didnt even bother with ppm/pH.
Molasses. roughly 30-50ml in 13-15 Liters.
Smoked a tester of the Tropicana Glookies (Sativa)
God daaaamn. Shits fire. Extremely strong. Very Cerebral and its not even at its peak yet...
I've chosen Tuesday as Harvest day for both Tropicana Glookies plants (they're clones of each other)
A single Wedding Cake testing nug is drying right now, I'll judge when it gets harvested based on the high, and if not sufficiently near my level i'll give it 2 days before drying another nug and trying again. I want heavy ass couch-lock.
6 days for Tropicana.
Probably 8 for Wedding Cake.
Will send samples off to Canvas Labs for testing like I've done in the past and will be making both edibles and bubble hash and will post those here as they happen.
Once thats done I will see if I can restart veg mode in this grow, and if so I will keep this going until the plants die (and just make side diaries for each individual plant variety grow).
Should be interesting.
*** update ***
Where'd the 1.5 Liter water bottle go?

Defoliation done on the last day of the week, everything's fine so far. The flowers have already started to give off a wonderful scent, everything is going as expected. Looking forward to the next few weeks... ✌️

She is looking great. I topped all of her mains and then waited a few days then started to clean up the bigger fans to expose the lower sites to light and air.

Purple Punch am 26.12.2024
Tag 49 / 14.02.2025
Meine Purple Punch steht schon in der 7 Woche, ein großer Erfolg für mich.
Habe mit Bio Bloom und Bio Grow in der letzte Woche sie gedüngt, das Ergebnis kann sich sehen lassen.
Heute, wird Acti Vera, Alg A Mic und Bio Heaven in das Gießwasser hinzu gegeben.
Feedback:
Ich bin überaus voll zufrieden wie meine Pflanze sich entwickelt hat, ich denke die gute Erde und der Dünger von Biobizz hat ein großen Teil beigetragen. Ich werde mal schauen wie die Pflanze in der 8 Woche aussieht.
Ich nehme gerne Ratschläge von der Community an.

- We had a flying start until 7-10 days ago when we noticed some toxicity early signs,
* Dark green leaves,
* Slow bud progress
* Burning tips,
* Crispy leaves.
⚠️ PH testing at mediums(soil) run off and the confirmation was there.
Too low PH (<4) & the roots started to lock down = (slowing nut - water uptake) -> slowing transpiration -> showing ☝️ toxicity-deficiencies.
- We stopped feeding and started to flush with tap water at 7 PH (3 waterings -7l/plant), at first run off was really low (under 4 PH) and after the flush we were at 5 PH.
- From now on we will adjust our waterings at 6.5 PH and start microdosing atami PK and snacks.
- The plants responed quickly after the first flushings and we will be back on track fast.
- Room smells like sparkling lemonade 🍋 only when teasing the buds, the humidifier/ionist keep the smells low and fastening the transpiration.
* Update at half week 6.👇
- After flush we start feeding with the atami duo and some snacks, the PH steady at 6.5.
- Buds fattening faster the last days.

Week 12 for Space Panda by Atlasseed,
This one is a hard one for me because i love love her leaf structure/colour, yet her actual growing structure im not a fan of especially for mainlining as she gets barely any side growth.
Hopefully after the stress of this last topping she will get her shit together😇😂
Because of the messed up light schedule + massive shifts of temps from 28+ to 6... outside the tent so really for 7 hours their growth is completely stunted, but I'm making due with what I have 😂

It’s the first week of flower!! I’ve been having troubles with knowing where to foliate and direct the growth with these plants. As 2 seem to be growing faster than the other 2! Over all looking good I think.

Back plant growing so fast, taller then the other and roots going into the water below already. Small plant up front has been going slower from the start. Slow to poke its head out and look at the light and has been behind ever since.

First day of week 6, i have to say these ladies are FASTTT! VPD 1.15-1.23 lights on VPD 0.97-1.05 lights off. The 70x70 area is 101% covered although id say 72x72cm because i added some self made growbox wall extenders i have started thinking adding the trellis net now or some days later to tilt the colas alittle just slightly for better light absorbtion for lower buds under the main shoots isnt a bad idea,under canopy view is magazine cover worthy MAN :D as you can see they are on fabric pots above plastic draining pot holders, the runoff is collected downthere and each of the pot holder has a plastic tube glued with water resistant superglue so after every water all the runoff water is collected from a pump with just a push of a button, the irrigation watering system is also connected and works pretty nice i have been giving them the water also by a simple push of a button with irrigation seem to love it (its not a automatic feeder connected to a reservuar i have two waterpumps one for watering one for collecting runoff i simply put the water intake plastic tube in my water bucket & press the button manualy, worth mentioning all of them have been reciving the same nutrient solution and same water although pheno#1 have been streching 4-6cm more than her sisters and she developed abit of blueish leafs even the soil in all 4 pots was from the same 2 soil bags and mixed very well before filling them so soil manifacturer excess nitrogen mistake is also not possible, i feel it is the phenotype but just to make sure there will be no excess nitrogen in the end i watered her with the exact same water amount as her sisters but 260ppm less for her this time just to make sure the blue is gone soon.she will be fine and emerald in few days. From today the UV FROST is ON from now too. Oh i forgot to mention thrueout the diary they where never topped only trained with these red clips besides the pheno3 that came topped "from god" since sprout and i wouldnt recommend topping autos (btw pheno 3 is a monster and smells wayy more LOUDA than the siblings.) although the pheno1 remains the main subject further on she got fuel to shoot for the stars and we rlly dont want that in this compact mini research area dont curse me for the substrate choice :D this stuff translates a bit of that earthy taste to the buds and way less attention than coco.

Just got them potted. Plants are in Shock. Removed Damaged Leaves. after Day 1. New growth is standing up and Praying. Flooding every 3 hours.
9/18/2020
had a problem that looked like Cal-Mag issues & overwatering... Was using the tank labels for water marks to tell how much water was in the tank. Discovered that the marks from the factory are wrong. Measured back in exactly 100 Gallons of water and re-nuted the tank.
It didn't solve my issue. So I changed the water flood schedule to see if I was overwatering or underwatering. no response from the plants except it was getting worse.
After trying things for two days, I "Phoned a friend"... and they suggested to turn the lights down to 25%. BAM! after 20 min or so, there was a positive response and lifting of the leaves...
Moral of the story is to start your clones and a lower light setting and gradually bring them up over time.
Pics included...

Week 8 is finally here! We changed up the nutrient feeding to the week 8 on the feed chart.
I am diluting everything at a 50-40% rate to keep EC within acceptable ranges of 0.8 - 1.1 EC.
I started adding Terpinator to the mix and I do notice a significant smell increase vs. without it. I am going to keep using this as I think it is a great supplement. I did figure out that even though on the bottle and on the specific feed chart, it says it is a light formula that will have minimal impact on EC and will not burn your plants at the recommended rates - it will!
First time mixing up my nutrients with terpinator, I had to dilute it because the EC was too high. I put the recommended amount in my mix, and checked EC and low and behold it was high. The next feeding I did a 50% dilution rate and that seemed to be ok if you are diluting your other inputs properly to compensate.
ALWAYS make sure your EC and PH are in check prior to fertigating your plants.
I am watching the trichomes on a daily basis and am looking to harvest sometime this week or next. I plan to dry it in the tent it is growing in as it has AC and good airflow. Once they are done drying, they will get trimmed up, lightly vacuum sealed and stored in the freezer.
Updates will be coming throughout the week!

Middle front was not doing so great but once I feed it some Calimagic and a heavier dose of nutrients it fixed itself just was hungry. Just gonna let them do their stretching till week 2 or 3 then I'm gonna raise the light watts.

This week I'm going to talk a little bit about the 2 gal pots I leave outdoors. Since they're going to be indoors now, I've assembled a fertilizer rack and the bottom compartment is perfect for a cage with all the plants I have. With a length of 1.5m, width 65cm and height of 1m, I will use 4 led bulbs 50w and 2 full spectrum LEDs 36w long 1.2m. 272w / ~ 1m2.
2/3:Plant the plants indoors and lst them. 4 led bulb 50w
5/3:Run off all the trees, as it was soaked with rain water when left outside. is still the old nutritional dose.
6/3: Today I received the led light I ordered. I perfect my design and let the tree in the cage out and lst.
9/3:I feel everything is perfect today, I reduce their lighting time to 12/12. I will cut off all the fan leaves from the stem of the 2gal pots and prune all the small branches of the 1gal pot. in this pruning I will trim them as much as possible. It's been 37 days since the seed and I think they're ready for flowering. I need to flower them urgently because in the next 2 months the weather can be as hot as 40 degrees, and I really have no way to reduce their temperature. I would probably have them flower for 7 to 8 weeks to retain maximum resin. a few days before high, I fliming an NL plant, I experimented with this technique and I feel that they have been very successful since the fliming plants have a much larger stump than other plants. I really like this technique, as it will save me the small space I currently have without having toppings. With just a few simple steps I have got a really big stump and still keep the biggest main bud of the tree. I hope each plant can give me 20-25 grams of dried marijuana.

here is the time of my mistake, I thought it was an auto seeds, its fast version with more photopheroid genes, I started watering with fertilizers to bloom. Light still 20h

It’s so warm today! Of course I pulled all my plants out to spray with spinosad and feed/water.
*********
I use a Hudson 2L sprayer. My partner used to work in the film industry and they found this brand of sprayer gets the most thorough even coverage for makeup or whatever movie magic they use sprayers to create. It’s great.
*********
The larger gorilla glue has come around but I lost a few nodes. I’m seeing a little PMD, but I’ve been knocking it back when baking soda and water. I’ve been taking scalps, defoliating the big one gently and the little ones need almost daily lollipopping. I’m watching my ph and using more cal mag. I definitely feel like they are two different phenotypes.I have them on individual diets.
**********
Some fungal gnats come with the humidity so I topdressed with gnat nix. I don’t believe I overwater so I hope that’s the solution! I think I may wait another week or two and get things more stable before moving to flower. I will update video tomorrow when I have access to faster upload speeds.

Added videos!

All's currently going well in the tent. Plants are looking very happy, even with the loadshedding ( government turns power off for 2-8hs a day).
Let hope they turn the lights back on soon..
If gave the plants the last top dressing of bio-bloom 1ml per Liter of soil.
It's starting to get a bit bushy in the tent. I'm pretty much removing any foliage that's is not getting decent light. As it just going to produce poor quality bud at the end.
Overall I'm very stoked with the week. It's just maintenance from now on. I must say the bio grow makes life easy👌
