My pictures seem to have re organized themselves, just give me a few here and I'll get the full rundown . So this week ( day 21-23) was MAJOR defoliating. What my first step is to start taking the largest fan leaves . My next step is about halfway through the canopy I'll stop and then I'll start working on the very bottom of the plant now at this stage in the game anything that doesn't even have a nice Bud site so a nice white hair sticking bud at the very bottom like shoots I'll just cut them right off. This is the first steps of a main line but I don't complete the actual full main line I probably will try it sometime soon just not this time. So you take off anything that is a small shoot coming off the main stems and then your next step is . STOP. It might be a minute it might be 10 minutes, 20 min , it might be an hour or more ( my tip is don't wait a full day I try and do it within the first 12 hours of starting it) but I always stop just to look at what I've done sometimes if you get going too quickly you can end up doing way too much. Stand to talk to canopy and look what sites are getting hit by light what places are these families beneficial to use for photosynthesis. Anything that is not doing as much good will be taken off and at that point I'll probably do another you know 5-10 minutes of defoliation maybe take one or two more shoots at the bottom to ensure what's left there is a huge fat cola that's going to give you those huge buds . After this you're going to want to do your best to support those stems that are going to hold a lot more weight as if the plant would have been with all the shoots so you're going to want to just make sure that you have staking in place or some sort of support system to keep them from flopping over a breaking them in the future because that's one thing yeah it's great but then it'll get to a point where oh no stuff falling over and then it's just more hassle than it is helpful. I got alot more pictures to follow this week so stay tuned !!!

Been a long time coming as I wanted to run theseva while back, had a lot going on and a few big changes but I'm back now. Hope everyone is staying safe at a time like this due to COVID-19. Back to the fun stuff... These girls germinated in around 48 hours, bemn going strong since. Only at day 6 with not much to report as only small seedlings. Will be back soon, looking to have this run as dialled in as possible. Stay tuned - FlavoursUK

Everything is looking good so far. They’re all done stretching and the cheese and black garlic have stretched the most. I adjusted each plant with boxes to create a more even canopy. Buds are swelling up nicely. The two black berry breath plants are looking swollen and fantastic. I don’t like the structure and bud size of the black garlic plants and will not be running them again. Although, they’re getting quite keify and the breeder claims they have a genetic trait that make them put on most of their weight late in flower. So far I’m not too impressed by their size. The seedsman Badazz OG cheese has got good node spacing and structure but has very little trichs and smaller buds. I was just running the cheese to test old European genetics and my bias is starting to confirm my bias. Dutch and Euro genetics are shit. The slurricane #4 is looking fantastic in terms of frost but the buds are lacking a little in size. I’m going to do the 21 day strip today. I should have done most of this defoliation earlier in veg but right now is still fine. Ice cream cake #1 hermed which isn’t at all surprising so I scrapped her. At least it gives me more space to get in and tend to the rest of the plants. I got a pump sprayer to get in a bit closer to the plants as well.

Common soon

Mrs B aka Bruce Banner #3 from Original sensible seeds is a different plant for me, in a good way of course. Beautiful thin sativa leaves and from the right angle looks like a picture of the tropics. The Fat early leaves on their way out over shadowed by smaller leaves above working on the Bud sites. A traditional super crop because she was starting to encroach on her girl scout cookie cousins space. Of course un fazed by the whole thing. I was once worried about her leaves touching the £1 emergency blanket I use as light reflection in the grow cupboard but has never been an issue its way too thin to hold anyway near enough heat to ever be an issue so the shaping also come somewhat naturally. shes under a selection of home standard LED bulbs around 10w, random blasts of UVB from a reptile light (I think helps growing with a slight slowing of the auto influence. My own thoughts from previous experiments only.) the other lights remain on 24 hours with a few 5 min breaks in the timer to cool the bulbs down a touch. I of course talk to her/them on a regular basis which has some scientific backing somewhere showing benefit for both of us.

Still no signs of flowering yet, maybe first little sight of calyx growth. Hopefully will hit 4ft! Been using cinnamon to top my substrate to prevent algea growth.

📅 D22 - 05/09 📜Second day of rest for Lucy only tha daily water tracking. LST adjusted a little. Added 1 l of water with only pH-. Deactivated inside roots pump ✍️ 0.98 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 9,7 L (added 1 L) 📏 7 cm 📅 D23 - 06/09 📜 Lucy waked up a little droopy. I guessed it is due to the deactivation of inside roots pump, so I reactiveted it. EC and pH are both raising and Lucy still drinks good. I will make a correction of EC and pH today. Cutted lower leaves. Late update: I added 1 L of pure water with 0,5 ml of pH- to take under control EC and pH. Anyway she looks better now, maybe the inside pump worked ? We'll see tomorrow. Lights distance is set on 20 cm from now on. ✍️ 0,96 EC ♒ 6,1 pH 🌊 9,9 L (Added 1 L) 📏 8 cm 📅 D24 - 07/09 📜 Lucy seems ok today, she is drinking and feeding ! Today I adjusted the LST on top branches and I will give some days of rest to lucy in the new configuration. EC and pH are both stable. ✍️ 0,96 EC ♒ 6,2 pH 🌊 9,1 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D25 - 08/09 📜 All is working good. Lucy is now completely recovered and she's drinking and feeding very good. I stressed up a little the LST for the manifolding. Also I gave her 1,5 liters of water with EC 0,9 and pH 4,8. I think she's almost ready for the new topping of the 2 main branches. I will perform it on Saturday and then change res. ✍️ 0,96 EC --> 0,92 EC ♒ 6 pH --> 5,7 pH 🌊 8,4 L --> 9,9 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D26 - 09/09 📜 Finally I decide to take the risk to make the topping today, despite the advices of @GrowCN and @Ukfarmer420 (thank you guys). As they say, she is an autoflower so too many close to the pre-flowering. So I've almost changed my mind, but finally, looking at Lucy, I decided to get all or nothing! So I topped her on the two main branches and I completly changed the res. The new EC is 1,4, very high.. Both the moves were a gamble, but failing is learning, so it's ok for me. Let see the aftermath of this push. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 6 pH 🌊 10 L 📏 8 cm 📅 D27 - 10/09 📜 Lucy looks good today. It seems the topping and the res change is going well until now (finger crossed). The pH track was a little strange as the value is over 6,6, I already added 1 ml of pH- in 10 L and I think I would add some more today. I didn't change the values here, 'cause I will put the new values the next week. I'm considering what to do now to make the branches stay down, I'm not sure if I have to use SCROG or other LST. I will look other diaries to find out. Update: I opted for LST. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 6,4 pH 🌊 9,5 L 📏 9 cm 📅 D28 - 11/09 📜 Last day of third week, and no changes made on Lucy today. EC is still high, but Lucy apparently can manage it. I made some little update on LST. Addded 1 L of water, pH5 and EC 1,39, tryng to lower the pH. ✍️ 1,4 EC ♒ 5,8 pH 🌊 9,5 L (Added 1 L) 📏 9 cm

Still planning to take them out this Saturday. I will begin flushing this Wednesday. 10/18 added flush water. Added short video of my flower tent and some root photography

I have a huge smile on my face because I’m getting closer and closer each day to smoking my own cannabis. Never buying weed again. Still on one tent but by this time next year the plan is to have a veg room and a flower room. Anyways. This past week has been great for the plants. Taking water nicely. All plants flowering nicely from what I can tell. Nothing looks odd. No insect or bacteria issues. Knock on weed... hope I didn’t jinx myself. I’m adding a dehumidifier and should be in by next weeks post. From what I read is if they get too wet and moist the plants can develop mildew or mold and fungus and also it says that after a rain or watering you want the pores of the leaves to open back up and if it’s too wet they never open and stop producing. Sounds good to me. Also. Got a new phone. First one in a long while and I made a short vid.

Hey bro's🤣

Welcome to my Lemon Orange Diary sponsored by Green House Seeds. Day 57-64 Week 9 She grew very well. Really healthy through pre flower & very happy to be high stressed. Kept up with Atami Bloom Stim until mid wk 9. And then I started pushing PK booster from plagron and made sure silica boost was given for the stress. Which helped the nodes not break as I HST'ed after pre flower, so there was no growth in the nodes to spring them back up. So the stems walls needed to be strong. And they were. Some naturally did rise towards the light. But not enough to point to rapid but stiffness back into the nodes upward growth, so it's important to have strong membrane walls. After pre fower was over, I cleaned her up also. Took 70% of everything, (defoliation that was done over 3 days.)The other 30% was removed during ripening as it had loads of (hat leafs) leafs surrounding the tops of the main buds blocking light to buds below. Plant has moved great through pre flowering. Very uneven nodes. And where the rest of where my plants where I needed this smaller. So early into week 9 I lollipopped were I knew the HST bend be everywhere below it was stripped. 90% of the nodes where HST'ed. Maintenance Summary 1:Start of wk 9.i lollipopped her, Everything below the planned HST points was removed 2:Defoliations were done in 3 stages. Removing big fan leafs once pre fower was over..I left more than I normally would as HST was in the same wk so I didn't wanna stress too much 3: HST'ed was applied and to make sure she kept a level canopy her nodes were tied down. 4: made sure the soil didn't dry up and was given silica to protect the nodes main membrane as the nodes would be moving for a wk r 2 until it stiffened during fattening. Thanks to my sponsor from Green House Seeds for this amazing strain. Looking forward to seen what other gems I get from my other GHS strains for this crop. Sorry for delays in diaries. I'm trying to catch up. All sponsored diaries are my priority. Thank you for your patience (sponsors)
