The demo clips show how the nutrient and air supply are being delivered to the root zone. After the flooding of the root zone to the top of the container, the pump turns "off" and the nutrient solution simply drains back down the supply pipe and out of the pump intake, which in effect, has now has become the outlet :)

Stretching is slowing down now. I defoliated reasonably hard 2 weeks ago , now I know I should have gone harder but this is my first time growing this strain. I've got one pheno that's looking like it will be done in the next week or two . I have one pheno that has very few stigma which is something I've only ever seen before on super lemon haze crossed with mimosa evo . You can see them in the video. Keep growing 💚

Raspberry Ripple Number One and Two (Flowering Plants) This week is the final week of Flower, I am noticing milky coverage on both plants and some amber trichomes as well. I gave the last watering today of distilled, dechlorinated water, with no P.H. Adjustments at 7.2 PH. I plan to harvest April 11th. Number One Pheno- The Number One Pheno is fully swollen and ripe now. The colas are densely stacked on the canopy. The foliage is quite over-faded, with some leaves being so dried out they crumble to the touch. I don't know if this is because the plant was in a bit too small of a pot or if my light was a little much these final weeks of flower. It is definitely ready for harvest! It's smells are still heavy in the raspberry candy department, with those hints of earthy leather on the back swing. Giving the number one pheno a very unique musk. The resin is greasy and plentiful! I can't wait to take this one down and trim it up to see how it looks in a jar! Number Two Pheno- The Number Two Pheno held out a little longer in its 5 gallon pot, it's a bit smaller of a plant. It's about 65% faded now but it's trichomes look finished! It's trichomes are very stacked out and coat this plant in a snow film! It may look a little boring next to its sister color wise, but it still sports some purple and pink hues under all the frost and I still think it'll be a worthy smoke as well! It smells of a raspberry wine but with that hazy fruity power. Almost like a strong mimosa strain. Clones- The larger clones in the 55 inch 2x2 MarsHydro veg tent, were starting to drink through water quickly! Mostly the larger number one phenos. Which would consume the entire dryback of their full pots in one day. I transplanted all the plants in the 55 inch tent into square pots (2 gallons for the Number 2 Phenos, 3 gallons for the Number 1 Phenos) this should hold them over for 3 to 4 weeks, so I can harvest and dry my flowering plants. I was unable to transplant the clones in the smaller Mars Hydro 30 inch Clone Tent, due to space constraints. I'll be feeding them worm castings and Down to Earth Crab Meal tomorrow. All the clones are looking healthy and look like they would be great candidates for flowering or mother plants. Tech Upgrade- This week I was able to purchase a Photobio Phantom Par Meter at a local grow shop's going out of business sale. With this tool I'll be able to get a dead on map of my light intensity and adjust accordingly. This will be great to have when setting up my new HLG Blackbird next cycle. I also got some 15 gallon grass roots fabric pots to try in the flower room next cycle. I also reached out to AC infinity and have an upgraded Cloudray S6 Gen 2 Oscillating Clip Fan on the way. My Gen 1 fan broke and would no longer oscillate correctly. AC infinity replaced it free of charge with the latest model. I think that about sums up this week! I'm very excited to take these plants down and begin preparing for next cycle. I was extremely lucky to get such amazing results of my first Pheno hunt. I can't thank Mosca Seeds and Tiki Madman enough for selecting such great crosses. It's hard to believe I got these two seeds as a freebie pack, with another order. I'm super thankful to have Grow Diaries to use and rely on for charting my week to week data, questions I have, and comparing my findings and results to other growers with similar strains, like @THCpapa grow of Raspberry Boogie! Thank you for checking out this week's entry of my growdiaries! See you for the harvest! -Starfish

Have some deficiencies or ph imbalance still troubleshooting. The pH was off but now everything is back on track. I have some amber on the watermelon, the northern light is milky from top to bottom but no amber yet The smell is pretty strong I do not feed the plants at all besides watering them with water from fish tanks. Made some live soil and added horse manure, homemade bone meal from fish bones, compost from vegetable scraps and black soldier fly frass. I do not use chemicals on any of my grows.

Yo! Week 2 Flower diary. Honestly I'm lost now I'd say it's closer to the end of week 3. I've done a full res wash, sterilization and refill ahead of adding another 5 plants. Even in one day I'd say I can see a visible 'perk' in these girls since doing that. Now off big bud and onto PK. They were showing signs of K deficiency so I took that and threw in some PK and the results speak for themselves. Frost is now in full swing. Got me drooling at the already grapey terps coming from them. Photos are poor this week as lights had already come on before I got to them. Will try for some with just the fluorescent on next week.

Day 106 16/08/24 Friday Big feed today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6. Finally flipped her!! Excuse my mess of a Scrog it's first time. I'm cutting away squares to allow the new growth this week to pass through, the net will only be used them as support to allow her to fully express her flowers 💚 Day 107 17/08/24 Saturday Another watering today using de-chlorinated tap water pH 6 only. Picture and video update ✌️ 💚 Day 109 19/08/24 MONDAY Another feed today, she is recovering well from the move, Scrog, LST. This week I'll be keeping her within the net as she stretches. Picture update Day 111 21/08/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated tap water today pH 6. Again 5L little run off. She's stretching 😁 time to fill the floor.

💩Holy Crap💩 That was so much fun , it's full on winter where I am and it kept me busy , and come on there's nothing like growing your own stuff. I had a blast as it's been at least over 10 years since my last indoor grow , and it was fun , I had used all of my old techniques and equipment and it worked out just fine , so I was glad I had a ruff idea of what to expect...... Final thoughts Gonna be honest about that grow , it should me just how far Genetics have come, 10 plus years ago before I stopped growing indoors , all we had was like lowrider auto and greenomatic auto and maybe few others but they were horrible...... but this auto produced quite well as expected it should with the size of my medium and my soil base and very little nutrients, which is what I had hoped for from the start , cause I didn't really know where to start in terms of Genetics as I have been out the game for awhile but I'm super glad with the results and some gratitude needs to be sent to CanukSeeds , they came through as it always starts and ends with elite Genetics👌 ........... I can't wait to start my next grow diary, so keep an eye out , there's gonna be more to come , I'm going to try some really interesting cultivars........ PS. Can anyone tell me this , back in the day like 2003-4-5-6 wasn't growdiaries.com just a private forum cause if memory serves me , I was among those lucky enough to find a community that did complete grow logs, fourm style, which is where I found my growmie and Mentor Franco Loga from Greenhouse seeds , RIP BUDDY 😃 CANT WAIT TO START MY NEXT GROW 👉I HAVE CREATED A PLACE FOR GROWMIES TO VISIT , SHOW OFF THERE GROWS , AND JUST HANG OUT .....👈 👉ALL YOU NEED IS TO JOIN THE GROWDIARIES DISCORD SERVER !!!!!!!!!!!👈 LINK IS 👉 https://discord.gg/zQmTHkbejs

She started very healthy and grew very quickly, we topped her once at the 3nd node (after 5 nodes), tied the main branches to the side allowing the bottom growth to catch up... we then toped each new top 1 time (after 2 nodes on the new growth), our goal is to creates 12 main top branches...we stripped the bottom 1/2 of the plant bare for now :)

Week 2 of veg and these girls have started to really grow!! Keeping up with LST as I know these can be really big girls. No defoliation yet, will do just before flower. UPDATE: LST everyday in preparation for them to switch. Only tucking leaves atm. Will defoliate and lollipop by the end of the week. UPDATE: the girl are showing me their sex with the pistil hairs coming out. They’ll be starting there stretch in the next day or so. I also broke a stem clean off which I’m very annoyed about as it was because I simply wasn’t thinking. UPDATE: The stem has bounced back and is growing good now. Leaves on that stem look abit ruined but I’m guessing that she took the energy from the leaves and just directed it the recovery of the node.

Day 28: Last night I had a real scare, I watered and by the end of the day she was drooping and looking very sick, there was no runoff at water so I feel I overwatered the little thing, thankfully this morning she has bounced back with great strength and this morning is looking healthier than ever! I'm noticing a few holes in leaves, a few spots on the leaves and a few very fine silk trails on the leaves, so I'm thinking she's got thrips 😣 next to impossible to get any pictures of the damage I'm talking about because I think I've caught the infection incredibly early, so today I'm picking up some Neem oil and I'll spray her completely at lights out , hopefully it is thrips and not spider mites because thrips this late in the grow wouldn't be too bad! If it's spidermites I'll be in a bit more trouble, thankfully flower has only JUST begun so I'm not so worried about a neem oil application at this time I'm going to let the soil dry out completely before watering again, I was dubious whether it was needed yesterday but the top inch was dry, I think I'll just wait until it's a couple of inches moving forwards Day 29: last night I drenched the leaves in diluted neem oil, I'm not seeing a lot of pest activity but there is some level, so since we're just starting to flower I decided now was the time just to blast anything that might be floating around, In ten days I'll do it again, maybe sooner if the buds are really getting going in that time Because of my overwatering scare the other day, I'm giving her another 24 hours to dry out deep into the pot, there's still a level of moisture in there and as of this morning the plant looks really healthy, really happy with how shes looking today, got 5 exposed tops which I believe will become the colas, 2 are the apex and on the same level and 3 lower ones are all on the same level. There are other potential Colas but they're hidden under the plant, I'll probable defoliate that side once the times right, unless they can break through in the next couple of days, which would be nice Day 29 update: (7 hours after lights on) opened the cabinet to find temps of 29 degrees c wasn't running extraction, soil is dry, but most importantly I noticed the top leaves praying for rain, I gave the soil a small amount (300ml) of distilled water and tap water , just to wet the soil enough to give another reason for the roots to spread through the pot, tomorrow I'll give another small water with feed and Humic acid just to top up her nutes and give her one last big hit of growth before she starts flowering properly, if we can trigger another growth spurt whilst she's still inbetween veg and flower, this is looking like a good first harvest! Day 29 Update (6 hours until lights off) following the water the plant has done her best to expose every inch of her leaves in light, she's bushier than ever and presumably getting ready to have a serious growth spurt, I watered around the far edge of the pot and let this pull through the soil, no run off because it was so little but, possibly a small feed of 1:1:1 tomorrow to top up nitrogen for any growth spurts planned ;) Day 29 Update (lights out) Today was an exceptional day for this girl, over the course of the day there's been some real developments! This evening she was foliar fed a mixture of 1:1:1 nutes and fulvic acid, a single drop in around 400ml of water, she should bounce back with an extra growth spurt with the extra nitrogen, on day 31 I will most likely be watering again with the same mixture to help push one last growth spurt before a flip to flower occurs and we move onto bloom nutes for the rest of the grow In 24 hours the fulvic acid should kick in and give one last growth spurt hopefully adding another node or two to the plant at the vest last moment, next photos i'm hoping will be a significant growth period if todays behaviour was anything to go by Day 31: Yesterday I squeezed in one last round of LST, the main stem cola was rising quite high above the rest of the canopy, I pulled that down out of the way and by the end of the day It had sorted itself out, I also spread out some of the other new cola sites to expose deeper into the plant to more light Yesterday I also watered with NPK 1:1:1 and Humic acid solution, as well as foliar fed with Bloom nutes and Humic acid again, this should help the plant through it's last growth spurt whilst allowing it to start creating flowers, today the soil will be left without water, possibly the next day too but I think it is ready for flowering to begin so I'm looking forwards to watering her with Bloom Nutes to get that process started well! Now that she's turning to flower i'm noticing the stems of each top are quite thin, I have a small fan on them constantly keeping them moving but I'm expecting to have to SCROG to provide all the support she needs, even if the stems thicken up in flower like I'm expecting, this will support the big buds I'm hoping for! Lot's a vertical growth starting the insides of the plant are starting to open up and there's very little leaf growth below the main canopy Day 31 - Whilst I watered yesterday with Nutes and Humic Acid, I'm spotting some very early signs of some flowering deficiencies, this isn't really a surprise as there has been hardly any nutrients added to the soil over the whole grow, so I've sprayed with the nutrient solution listed a move, the top of the soil was getting dry but not ready for a full water yet, just wet the topsoil through to help her transition to a higher quality nutrient, should start seeing some fairly decent growth from here on out! Day 32 - Today the soil was getting pretty dry, I diluted down my foliar feed mix a little and watered around 400ml of water with Humic, Fulvic, Bio Bloom and a few drops of 1:1:1, may have been a little too early but she's slightly showing some signs of deficiencies, foliar feeding has helped a little to keep these back but today I gave her the first feeding of specific bloom nutrients, should see her return to a healthy colour soon! She's starting to get quite tall as well, I think next few days we'll have some serious growth ongoing (as has become tradition) You can see from the images how her colour has gotten a bit lighter over the past few days, Foliar feeding has definitely slowed this and hopefully prepared her for a bigger dose of Nutrients, in 48 hours I'll be ready to water again this time with a heavier balance of nutes to really get things started for a healthy harvest Today or tomorrow she needs respraying with insecticides just to make sure nothing survived the early infestations and do ensure a pest free grow until the very end! Day 32 update: Today the flowers on what I expect will be the main 2 Colas have started forming, There's around 7 potential colas but 2 will be substantial if they're left long enough, hopefully tonight the nutrients kick in, but I'm considering another decent hit of nitrogen and bloom fert together, then water till flush, I think that will be 2-3 days off though, day 33: today she's looking all round healthier, the colours were good yesterday but today she's a much healthier shade of green for sure :D giving a decent feeding regime of flower nutes seems to have balanced her out nicely, I'm gonna leave watering today and let her dry out to give the roots another big push to grow, the other day I was digging down into the soil on the opposite side of the pot to the plant and found roots there, I'm really excited to see this girls root ball! Flowering is well on the way, HOPING for a Christmas harvest but I think it's going to be more new year when she's fully ready to be chopped, can't wait! I have pulled off 2 leaves today, they were starting to turn brown, I think the plant has cannibalised them, not because of a nutrient issue, because of a light issue, these leaves were completely shaded by the whole plant
