Got a breeding project underway to make a few crosses with my master kush male. Its very nice branch structre, stocky stature, and tight internodal spacing will definitely attribute to some sexy figured ladies. Plus it has an enormously skunky stem rub, and his foliage Danks pretty good as well. I will be creating Fireman's Fruit, Mk-6ix, and Oozaru Kush. Than I will make new diaries phenohunting my new crosses. Also will working out the new genetic lines. So I will make diaries for every new generation of offspring. Definitely gunna be a fun little project. Can't wait to get to some beans! Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam. UPDATE*** 3 more cuts enter the breeding chambers. With them I will be creating... Master Zkittlez, Mind Melt, and Lunar Landing. Can't wait to get to work on the new lines. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

🍬 Candy Rain Auto by Zamnesia | Week 12 ✨ The Glamorous Survivor Is Getting Louder and Louder 🍬πŸ”₯🌸 Welcome back to another chapter of the 8Γ—8 Adventure! πŸŒ±πŸ’š Well... Our solo survivor has apparently decided that being quiet and elegant was not enough anymore. πŸ˜‚ She's getting louder. And louder. And louder. 🍬πŸ”₯🌸 The stacking is becoming impossible to ignore. The flowers are becoming more substantial. She's continuing to build all over the plant. And every time I look at her, I find another little detail that wasn't quite as obvious the week before. She's beautiful. She's becoming more impressive. And she's definitely making herself heard now. πŸ˜‚πŸ¬ This is Candy Rain Auto. Our survivor. Our glamorous survivor. Our solo girl. And at this point... she's basically saying: "Okay, enough talking. Look at what I'm building." πŸ˜‚πŸŒΈπŸ”₯ So... let's look. ──────────────────────── 🍬 WEEK 12 – SHE'S GETTING LOUD ──────────────────────── There are plants that quietly develop. There are plants that suddenly explode. And then there is Candy Rain... who appears to have chosen the middle ground and simply keeps getting louder every single week. πŸ˜‚ She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing flowers throughout her structure. And the whole plant is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. What I really like is that there isn't just one area doing all the work. The flowering structures are developing throughout the plant. You look at one branch... then another... then another... and there's always something happening. Another flower. Another developing cola. Another little section gaining volume. Another area catching the light. It's becoming a beautiful, continuous story. 🌸🍬🌿 ──────────────────────── πŸ”₯ STACKING, STACKING & MORE STACKING ──────────────────────── This is probably the biggest thing I notice this week. She's stacking. And she's stacking beautifully. 🌸πŸ”₯🌸πŸ”₯🌸 The flowers are becoming increasingly defined. The structures are getting more substantial. And the plant is starting to look less like a girl who is simply flowering... and more like a girl who has decided: "Right. We're building now." πŸ˜‚ And I absolutely love watching that transition. Because we've been following this plant from much earlier in the run. We've watched her establish herself. We've watched her flower. We've watched her develop. We've watched the first flowers become larger structures. And now... we're watching those structures continue to stack and gain presence. That's the beauty of doing these weekly diaries. You don't just see a plant. You see the progression. ──────────────────────── πŸ“’ SHE'S GETTING LOUDER ──────────────────────── I keep coming back to that word. Louder. πŸ˜‚πŸ¬πŸ”₯ Because visually... that's exactly how it feels. She's making herself known. The flowers are becoming more obvious. The stacking is becoming more obvious. The overall plant is becoming more substantial. And the closer we get... the more she seems to say: "Hello? Are you looking at me yet?" πŸ˜‚ Yes, Candy Rain. We are. We definitely are. πŸ¬πŸ‘€πŸŒΈ ──────────────────────── 🌼 THOSE PISTILS ARE CHANGING ──────────────────────── And now we're starting to see another little part of the story develop. The pistils. 🌼➑️🌸 She's beginning to change their colour. We're starting to see some of that earlier bright, warm appearance evolve. They're no longer all sitting there looking exactly the same. There's a transition happening. And I really enjoy watching this because it's one of those small visual details that becomes much more obvious when you follow the same plant week after week. She's still carrying plenty of green. She's still very much a green girl. But we're beginning to see those little changes developing within the flowers. And that's another reminder that she's moving. She's progressing. She's following her own rhythm. Nothing feels rushed. Nothing feels forced. She's simply moving along exactly as she seems to want to. πŸ¬πŸŒΌπŸ’š ──────────────────────── πŸ’š STILL PLENTY OF GREEN ──────────────────────── And yes... there's still a lot of green. πŸ˜‚πŸŒΏ Candy Rain is not suddenly turning into an autumn postcard. She's still carrying plenty of beautiful green foliage. And that's perfectly fine. She's still developing. She's still stacking. She's still bulking. She's still doing her thing. I don't want to force the story into some expectation of what she "should" look like at a particular moment. That's one of the things this whole project has taught me. Every plant has its own rhythm. Every phenotype expresses itself differently. And Candy Rain is telling us her story in her own language. So... we watch. We document. We appreciate. And we let her continue. ──────────────────────── 🌿 SHE'S FOLLOWING HER OWN RHYTHM ──────────────────────── This girl has never really been interested in following anybody else's schedule. πŸ˜‚ And I love that. She's moving according to her own rhythm. Not necessarily screaming ahead. Not necessarily taking forever. Just... moving. Perfectly. At her own pace. And I think that's one of the most important things to recognize in a room like this. When you've got twelve different plants sharing one environment, you're going to see different speeds. Different structures. Different expressions. Different reactions. And that's exactly what makes the 8Γ—8 Adventure so interesting. Candy Rain isn't late. She isn't early. She's Candy Rain. πŸ¬πŸ’š And she's doing Candy Rain things. ──────────────────────── πŸ‘‘ THE SOLO SURVIVOR HAS BECOME A CHARACTER ──────────────────────── I still think back to how this girl started her story. She was our solo survivor. The one that remained. And somehow... she has evolved into one of the characters I most enjoy following. πŸ˜‚πŸ¬ At first, the story was simply: "She's still here." Then: "She's growing." Then: "She's flowering." Then: "She's stacking." Then: "She's bulking." And now: "She's getting louder." πŸ˜‚πŸ”₯ That's quite an evolution. She may have started as the survivor... but she's definitely not behaving like a background character anymore. ──────────────────────── 🌸 FLOWERS EVERYWHERE ──────────────────────── Look around the plant... flowers. Look again... more flowers. Move closer... even more flowers. πŸ˜‚πŸŒΈ That's what I love about this stage. The plant has developed enough structure that the flowers now tell most of the story. You can see the framework. You can see the branches. You can see the foliage. But your eyes keep getting pulled toward those developing flowering structures. And Candy Rain has plenty of them. She's filling her space beautifully. Not necessarily in some dramatic, explosive way... but consistently. And consistency is beautiful. Week after week. Flower after flower. Stack after stack. ──────────────────────── πŸ“Έ THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE TELLING THE STORY ──────────────────────── Looking at this week's photographs, I really like how clearly the plant's progression comes through. The wider photographs show the overall structure. The closer photographs reveal the individual flowers. And then you get those little details... the pistils. The developing resin. The flower texture. The different stages of development across the plant. It's almost like looking at a little map of where she's been and where she's going. And honestly... I could probably keep photographing her all day. πŸ˜‚πŸ“Έ Because every time you change your angle, another flower catches your eye. ──────────────────────── πŸ’‘ SAME ROOM. SAME PHOTONS. SAME CANDY RAIN. ──────────────────────── And of course... we have to come back to one of the biggest themes of the 8Γ—8 Adventure. Same room. Same general environment. Same lighting philosophy. Same irrigation system. Same nutritional foundation. Same 12/12 schedule. Same grower. And yet... different plants. Different genetics. Different expressions. Candy Rain is receiving the same general lighting environment as everyone else. The two additional Future of Grow Black Series 600W fixtures are still part of the room. We're keeping them around: πŸ’‘ ~59% power from the plug with approximately: β˜€οΈ ~1,500 PPFD across the upper canopy and naturally varying depending on canopy height and position. The photons are the same opportunity. But Candy Rain decides what to do with them. And apparently... she wants to make flowers. Lots of flowers. πŸ˜‚πŸ¬πŸŒΈ ──────────────────────── β˜€οΈ THE ARTIFICIAL SUN KEEPS DOING ITS JOB ──────────────────────── I really like what the expanded lighting setup has brought to this project. Not because we're trying to force the plants to do anything. But because we have more capability. We can create a broader lighting envelope. We can control the output. We can give the room the photons it needs without simply running everything flat out. And then... we observe. That's the interesting part. The light provides the energy. The plants interpret it. And Candy Rain? She's interpreting it beautifully. She's stacking. She's bulking. She's developing. She's getting louder. πŸ¬β˜€οΈπŸŒΈ ──────────────────────── πŸ’š THERE'S NOT MUCH FOR ME TO DO NOW ──────────────────────── And honestly... this is probably the biggest thing I can say about this week. There's not much for me to do. πŸ˜‚ I'm looking. I'm observing. I'm checking. I'm supporting whatever needs support. I'm adjusting when something actually asks for an adjustment. And otherwise... I'm letting her be. Because she's doing beautifully. Why would I interfere with something that is already working? The plant has established her structure. The flowering sites are there. The flowers are developing. The stacking is happening. She's progressing. So my role becomes simpler. Observe. Respond. Support. And get out of the way. πŸŒ±πŸ’š ──────────────────────── πŸ˜‚ THE GROWER'S JOB: EXIST ──────────────────────── There comes a point in every grow where the plant basically tells you: "Okay... I've got this." πŸ˜‚ And Candy Rain is definitely approaching that conversation. She's doing her thing. She's asking for what she needs. And when she does... we respond. But otherwise? I'm just here. Existing. πŸ˜‚ Watching her. Admiring her. Taking photographs. Writing about her. And occasionally saying: "Well... look at you." πŸ¬πŸ‘€πŸŒΈ Sometimes growing is incredibly complicated. And sometimes... the best thing you can do is let the plant grow. ──────────────────────── 🌼 THE COLOURS ARE STARTING TO TELL US MORE ──────────────────────── The changing pistils are one of the details I'm particularly interested in watching now. Earlier, those warmer yellowish tones were already giving Candy Rain a unique character. Now we're beginning to see more change. It's subtle. It's gradual. And it's exactly the kind of thing I enjoy documenting. Because this isn't about one photograph. It's about the sequence. Week 10. Week 11. Week 12. And suddenly you can see that little shift. That's the magic of a diary. You capture something that seems tiny today... and a few weeks later, you realize it was part of a much larger transition. πŸ¬πŸŒΌπŸ’š ──────────────────────── ❄️ AND YES... SHE'S STILL FROSTY ──────────────────────── The resin development continues as well. β„οΈπŸ¬ She's not finished showing us what she can do. The flowers continue carrying that beautiful frosty character. And combined with the changing pistils and all that green... she's developing a really lovely visual identity. Again... not necessarily the most dramatic plant in the room. Not necessarily the strangest. Not necessarily the biggest. She's simply... Candy Rain. And honestly? That's more than enough. ──────────────────────── 🍬 BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT TRYING TOO HARD ──────────────────────── Maybe that's what I like most about her. She doesn't look like she's trying. πŸ˜‚ She just grows. She stacks. She develops. She changes. And somehow... she ends up beautiful. There are plants that look like they were designed for a magazine cover. And then there are plants where you keep watching them week after week and slowly realize: "Wow... I really like this girl." Candy Rain is that kind of plant for me. She's grown on me. Literally. πŸ˜‚πŸ¬πŸŒΏ ──────────────────────── πŸ”¬ SAME ENVIRONMENT – DIFFERENT EXPRESSION ──────────────────────── Again, for anyone discovering this diary for the first time... the 8Γ—8 Adventure is about exactly this. We're not creating twelve completely different worlds. We're not changing everything every week for every phenotype. We're giving these plants a shared environment... and watching what genetics do with that opportunity. And Candy Rain gives us another beautiful example. Same room. Same photons. Same general nutrition. Same environmental strategy. Different expression. That's the experiment. And that's why I never get tired of seeing another week unfold. Because even when nothing dramatic changes... the plants are still changing. Quietly. Gradually. Beautifully. ──────────────────────── βš—οΈ NUTRITION – SAME ROOM, SAME FOUNDATION ──────────────────────── As with the rest of the room, the flowering nutrition remains at: 🌱 Plagron Terra Bloom – 2.3 ml/L 🌱 Power Buds – 1 ml/L 🌱 Green Sensation – 1 ml/L 🌱 Sugar Royal – 1 ml/L βš—οΈ pH adjusted as required Current solution values remain around: βš—οΈ pH – ~6.02 ⚑ EC – ~2.14 mS/cm Again... nothing special just for Candy Rain. Same general room-wide strategy. Same nutritional foundation. And then... we observe what she does with it. She's doing beautifully. ──────────────────────── 🌑️ WEEK 12 – ROOM CONDITIONS ──────────────────────── The room continues broadly around: 🌑️ Day temperature: ~26.5Β°C πŸŒ™ Night temperature: ~26Β°C πŸ’§ RH: ~61% 🌱 Substrate temperature: ~25Β°C πŸ’¦ Nutrient solution: ~25Β°C βš—οΈ pH: ~6.02 ⚑ EC: ~2.14 mS/cm πŸ’¨ COβ‚‚: ~693 ppm πŸ’‘ Light schedule: 12/12 ? Pot size: 15 L πŸ’§ Irrigation: ~1.45 L/plant/24h Same room. Same environment. Same lighting upgrades. Same nutrition. Different week. And another beautiful chapter from Candy Rain. πŸ¬πŸ’šπŸŒΈ ──────────────────────── πŸ”₯ SHE'S ENTERING THAT BEAUTIFUL "JUST WATCH" PHASE ──────────────────────── I think that's the best way to describe where we are now. Just watch. πŸ˜‚ Watch the flowers. Watch the stacking. Watch the colour. Watch the pistils. Watch the resin. Watch the plant. And when she asks for something... we respond. Otherwise... let her do what she does. This is where patience becomes part of the grow. The plant doesn't need us to make something happen every day. Sometimes... she just needs time. And Candy Rain is using that time beautifully. ──────────────────────── πŸ” WHAT I'M WATCHING NOW ──────────────────────── So what am I looking for? Honestly... more of the same. 🌸 Continued stacking. 🍬 Continued bulking. 🌼 Further changes in the pistils. ❄️ Continued resin development. 🌿 Watching all that green evolve naturally. πŸ‘€ And simply seeing where her own rhythm takes her. I'm not trying to predict exactly what she's going to look like at the end. I'm not trying to force a timeline. I'm just enjoying the progression. Because right now... she looks happy. She looks beautiful. And she looks like she's enjoying herself. ──────────────────────── ✨ FINAL THOUGHTS – LET CANDY RAIN SHINE ──────────────────────── Week 12. Candy Rain Auto. Our solo survivor. Our glamorous survivor. Our increasingly loud survivor. πŸ˜‚πŸ¬πŸ”₯ She's stacking. She's bulking. She's getting louder. She's changing. Her pistils are beginning to shift colour. She's still carrying plenty of beautiful green. She's moving at her own rhythm. And she's becoming more impressive by the week. There's not much for me to do now. And honestly? I'm perfectly happy with that. I'll exist. πŸ˜‚ I'll observe. I'll support whatever she needs. I'll make adjustments when they're actually necessary. And otherwise... I'll let her be. Because she's doing her thing. And she's doing it beautifully. πŸ¬πŸŒΈπŸ’š This girl doesn't need me to write her story for her. She's writing it herself. One flower. One stack. One week at a time. So let's give her the spotlight. Let's let her shine. Let's enjoy the colours as they begin to change. Let's watch those flowers continue to build. And let's see how loud this beautiful girl can get. πŸ˜‚πŸ”₯🍬 Candy Rain... keep doing your thing. Keep stacking. Keep bulking. Keep changing. Keep surprising me. And most importantly... keep being you. Because whatever you're doing... it's working beautifully. πŸ¬πŸ’šπŸŒΈβœ¨ ──────────────────────── πŸ™ THANK YOU ──────────────────────── As always, thank you so much to everyone following the 8Γ—8 Adventure. πŸ’šπŸŒ± Thank you to GrowDiaries for giving us the space to document these individual journeys and share the experience with growers around the world. Thank you to Zamnesia for the Candy Rain genetics and for giving us this beautiful solo survivor to follow. Thank you to Plagron for the growing media and nutrition supporting the room. A huge thank you to Future of Grow for supplying the additional Black Series 600W fixtures and giving us the opportunity to explore this expanded lighting setup. πŸ’‘β˜€οΈπŸŒΏ Thank you to LumiFlora for helping bring additional light into the deeper areas of the canopy. Thank you to TrolMaster for helping keep the environment stable behind the scenes. And, of course... thank you to everyone following along. Every comment. Every question. Every message. Every person who stops by to see what the girls are doing. It genuinely means a lot. πŸ’š And Candy Rain? You're getting louder. You're getting bigger. You're stacking. You're changing. You're becoming more beautiful every week. 🍬πŸ”₯🌸 You started this adventure as our solo survivor. Now? You're one of the girls that I genuinely look forward to seeing every time I walk into the room. And that's something special. So this week... the spotlight belongs to you. πŸ¬βœ¨πŸ‘‘ Let's keep watching. Let's keep documenting. Let's keep enjoying the journey. And let's let this beautiful girl continue moving at her own rhythm. No rushing. No forcing. No unnecessary interference. Just observation... support... and appreciation. Because sometimes... the best thing a grower can do is simply stand back and say: "She's got this." πŸ˜‚πŸ¬πŸŒΏ And Candy Rain? I think she's got this. Growers Love, my friends. πŸ’šπŸŒ± See you next week in the 8Γ—8 jungle... where the flowers keep stacking, the colours keep changing, the photons keep flying, and our solo survivor keeps getting louder and louder and louder. 🍬🌸πŸ”₯πŸ’š Let her shine.

I have been starving my flowering plants this week to provoke that trichome production. I Will clean out the veg room and germinate seeds for next grow. Half strenght nutes this week as well

Nun ist es offiziell. Meine Pflanzen blühen. Obwohl beide so unterschiedlich sind, die ist 50 und die andere 40cm groß, haben beide gleichzeitig angefangen zu blühen. Beim nÀchsten mal gießen kommt dann der erste Dünger dazu. Plagron alga bloom. Ich nehme wie manche Leute empfehlen nur die HÀlfte, da es sich um automatics handelt. Am Samstag habe ich nun das erste Mal gedüngt. 5ml auf 1l Wasser Pragron alga bloom. Sonntag habe ich mein Pflanzen gemessen. 70 und 48cm. Meisterlich Ich werde eine Woche nicht bei meinen Pflanzen sein kânnen. Sie werden von Dritten gepflegt werden. Also Wasser und Dünger geben. Denke zweimal Wasser wird reichen. Dann nÀchste Woche wieder mehr.

Well, the drought stress in week 11 really fucked my plants up, but Twiggy recovered, while Zoey was hurt pretty bad. If I did nothing, I'm betting harvest would've been 25% more, and Zoey's buds wouldn't look so crappy, but overall, I was so happy with this grow! I was under a time crunch, so only did minimal veg for 4 weeks, topping once. Daily watering with 1.8EC mix that was pretty consistent. Kept pH between 5.5 and 5.8. Kept tight control on humidity and temperature up to mid flower, then kept air circulation on to keep room humidity around 55% Things I'd do differently: 1. Veg longer - I'd love to try a mainline 2. Canopy control - wish I had spent the time on a SCROG screen, or at least a couple of rings. 3. More light sooner into flower. Waited about 4 weeks into flower before maxing out the light. Probably could've bulked them up significantly if I started earlier 4. Drought stressing - For Fucks Sake, keep a close eye on your plants, and the minute they start to wilt, get the water back on 'em!!! 5. Measure your run-off more frequently for salt build-up. Didn't have any problems, but it's a good best practice. 6. Set up proper closed-loop environment to allow for CO2 enrichment. 7. Set up a clone environment before you get to flower. Oops. Things I was happy with: 1. VPD control system (heat, humidity) during veg and early flower worked flawlessly. Never any nute burn, and super healthy plants. 2. Sterilized soil and grow-room before starting - never had a single bug or any mold/mildew issues. Used a MERV 13 filter on the air intake, exhaust through carbon to crawlspace. 3. Coco/perlite mix - super drainage, low build-up, very healthy roots. 4. Power meter - neat way to measure what's really going into the grow, so when your wife complains about power usage, you can show her the real numbers. 5. Photone app on Android S20 - Knew where my PPFD was for optimal growth control. 6. REX-C100 PID controller for toaster oven - super tight temperature control comes in handy for decarbing as well as toasting oak for moonshine.

So I had absolutely no ill effect on the plants at at all moving from the green buzz veg feed too the house & garden soil a&b feeds, I did not even given them a water only inbetween the two, I also went straight in with 50% the recommended dose stated on the house & Gardens bottles this switched happened the day before week 5 none showed any signed of defects or deficiency intact they exploded into life over night and then every day after that, I have been using the green buzz fast buds as a folar spry appied too the leaves of the early flower formation after lights out, They seemed too love that too and I also kept the note roots going in, I also started too apply C-RESULT at the fullbl dose stated on the bottle, The plants live this stuff if you have not tried it do it, I am not sponcered by c-result I was given this by my local grow store, It brings all the nutrients straight too the roots it states, All I know is this stuff triggers the plants too suck the pots dry in 24 hours, So make sure you have your feed bucket fully in order before adding this stuff as a mistake here could cost you, But get it right and in 24 hours these little autos doubled in size, It states too used week one of flower only and smells like a sewer lol I have today day one of week 6 Started too add house & garden Bud XL at half strength too increase next week and also I added there top shooter at 1ml per liter of water as 7 as I plan too removed all chemicals exactly as of day 1 of week 7 leaving me week 9 clean, I did not top any of these girls, I am training all the shooting tips too my scrog netting the best I can due too very limited space in the grow space, And am praying for some of the promised purple leaves on the fast buds Web site, I has on lemon pie this round that is 2 weeks behind the rest due too non germination but I am wondering if a staggered planting each plant exactly one week behind each other would give me a little more canapΓ© space and the treat of harvesting a plant every week, Using the skyline 1000 only I did not too any of these autos 2 x strawberry cheese cake 2 x lemon pie 4 x fyah Sounds like a plan too me, Thanks for reading

She has become out of control, buds are way too heavy, a stem fell during the night and the upper cola on that stem has developed mold very quickly. But this isolated incident didn't stop her from producing loads of trichomes everywhere, that are almost 100% milky. A few more days to wait and I'll proceed to harvest 😎

Day 42 / Week 6 Flower begins today - 22/12/2021. EC - EC has been a little high, rising to as high as 1.9 overnight after approx 16hrs since last feed. Inflow is 1.3 and will probably remain there or even be backed off slightly to 1.2 until the plants show they require more as if it keeps rising I will have to lower the EC slightly. I believe it is the Ultimate PK sending the EC higher as that is the only thing that has changed. Still giving less than half of what mills suggest and the girls don’t seem to mind, if anything they are getting slightly overfed as above suggests. Multifeeding - I am currently feeding every 4 hours, 2 hours after lights on and 2 hours before lights off for a total for 3 x per day, 2l per plant per feed. Always with 20% or greater runoff. Defoliation - I am still only removing about 7-10 leaves per plant every 4 or 5 days if they are beginning to cover or shade bud sites below. If they are not causing issues, I won’t remove them as I don’t want to cause any unnecessary stress at this stage. β€œLST” - The string is still attached from the β€œLST”, it does not seem to be affecting the plant and is keeping centre of the plants exposed pretty well so I’m trying to just keep the string on. As the weeks go on, if the branches require support instead of tying down, I will tie them up the frame of the tent probably. Both girls buds are beginning to fatten up, especially along the main branches are becoming more developed and more colours are coming on MOP 2 which is the more purple and prettier of the two phenos (for now). Even the lower stuff on both girls is a lot larger than the last time so I’m happy already as I’d imagine the tops will be even larger and there is still approx 3 weeks / 21 days remaining. Can’t wait to see how much more these progress in the coming weeks. πŸ™πŸ»πŸ€™πŸ»πŸ’š

Most important to note from this week: Even a small dose of cal mag to plants 3 and 6 slightly stunted growth. There seems to be a lot of nutrients in this soil which might be why the added cal mag slowed growth and showed very dark leaves (too much nitrogen from the cal mag). I am using RO water so thought that cal mag would help but didn't. PH in correct range along with recharge and silica really calls for no nuts in this soil! Transplanted to 1 gallon pot with Ocean Forest soil on days 16 and 17. Still only using recharge and silica w/ no extra nutrients. I did add 2ml of cal mag to the plant with light spotting which seemed to help slightly by day 20. All ph ranges are right at about 6.5. I found that watering at 6.7 with a low ppm water brings me to a good ph range for this soil. No signs of deficiency so no extra nutrients for now. Average relative humidity slightly lowered to 60%. I'm paying attention to light distance and power closely to keep ppfm in 300-400 range. 2 plants did not make it. I believe due to overwatering. 5 white widows left I performed LST on Day 21. Plants are short and bushy so I felt no need to top. LST combined with scrog is the plan.

16.2.25: I decided to check out the lower canopies of all plants to see if I need to get rid of any foliage. I did get rid of a few small branches and leaves. However, whilst I was doing this, I saw more garden pegs from my LST remaining. There were about 6 or more in Pink Mist alone. Additionally, on Watermelon, there were some left in, too. I'm so annoyed to see that because the plants are really stretching, and I could've potentially disrupted this by leaving the pegs in for all this time without realising it. 🀞 that I haven't compromised things too much. We'll see. I watered today with 2ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 containing the following nutrients; β™‘ .8g Green Leaf Nutrients PK booster β™‘ .5g Ecothrive Biosys I ordered quite a few things for the garden. I got Greenleaf Nutrients Sea K(elp) and Mega Crop Parts A+B. To go with their PK Booster I got last month. I'm excited to try it all together. Next run, maybe just using these. We'll see how it goes. 18.2.25: The plants are going crazy for water! Everything is getting used right up so fast! Today, I decided to add some more Black Strap Molasses to add some carbs and other micronutrients. I'll add the jar with the label in the photos section above. I watered a very small amount to each plant. What I put in: β™‘ Black strap molasses 150g β™‘ 2g Sea K(elp) Greenleaf nutrients. I dissolved everything in 4ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. 19.2.25: I received the majority of the garden purchases that I made. I'm still waiting for the Ecothrive Life Cycle. I wanted to top dress, but it's been delayed unfortunately. I am using my Greenleaf nutrients products which I bought on Amazon. I got the Mega Crop 2 part system Part A and Part B. I have the Sea K(elp), and the bud explosion PK booster. I really wanted to get some of their sweet candy asking read many positive reviews. Unfortunately, for me, this is unavailable to buy currently. So that's a little disappointing. I needed to do a good watering so when my nutes were delivered today, I got excited πŸ€— I watered 2ltrs of dechlorinated water per plant, PH'd to 6.4, containing the following nutrients: β™‘ 1g Mega Crop Part A β™‘ 1g Mega Crop Part B β™‘ .5g Sea K(elp). The plants drank this up within a few hours. I'm going to try and hold off on watering in hopes that my Ecothrive Life Cycle will arrive so I can top dress and water it in then. 20.2.25: My Ecothrive Life Cycle arrived yesterday, and the plants are ready for their top dress and a good watering in. I have some Biobizz Light Mix, Canna Coco,and perlite. I'm going to use this as a base to mix my amendments in. I'm going to fill my 5 gallon bucket with about 4.5 gallons of my top dress mix. I will distribute this across 6, 4-5 gallon pots. Then I will water in well with Greenleaf nutrients Mega Crop Parts A+B and Sea K(elp). I've made a crude attempt to video mixing my top dress. Don't listen to the audio. lol, my YouTube didn't stop playing whilst I recorded this πŸ˜‚ So anyway, I added the following amendments to the above base mix of 4.5 gallons; β™‘ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle β™‘ 3 TBSP Vitalink Bat Guano β™‘ 3 TBSP Ecothrive Charge β™‘ 1 TBSP RHS Mycorrhizal Fungi granules β™‘ 6 TBSP Ground Cinnamon.

Still fighting with pH. It was 5.5 when I add the plants, but when I check a few hours later, it's already above 6.5 Days 2: I trimmed the bottom fan leaves from Purple Kush to keep them off the ground. I also topped Purple Maroc. pH was still below 6 Day 4: Veg is gone wild..... I have been shoving the large fan leaves on the Autos underneath other branches to allow light in. Red Purps may get topped yet again. Day 6:. Switched autos to bloom nutrients. Added Purpanator to them. pH set to 5.5. Topped bottom and mid branches of Red Purps to keep canopy more even. Day 7: replaced CO2 generator.

Flowering day 3 since time change to 12 / 12 h Hey guys . My cutting heating broke 3-4 weeks ago, which was fixed immediately and everything went wonderfully. Now, 3 days ago, the central heating broke down in the entire room, so that at night I only have temperatures of around 13 degrees :-( . One or the other lady is slowly starting to see a phosphorus blockage, as this can no longer be absorbed at temperatures below 15 degrees, like many other nutrients :-( . A friend looked at the heating yesterday and came to the conclusion that a real company had to do it, which is by no means possible for a stranger to enter my room. I quickly ordered heating mats for all the boxes so that the ladies could at least get warm feet. That's all I have this winter full can do . Let's hope everything will be fine πŸ™πŸ». As soon as the heating mats are attached in the coming days, I will post them in the pictures. Now for the update. Despite the severe cold, the ladies are still doing well and have made good progres . The ladies only had to be watered once this week, each time with 1 l, because it absorbs the water very slowly because of the cold and I don't want to overwater it. I took every single plant in the pot to take a close look at their roots. These are snow white and look very healthy πŸ™πŸ». It was also the last time neem oil sprayed so that the last trips are finally gone. Otherwise everything was checked and a lot of planning was done, like I do with the heating mats. Since a friend had the same problem in one winter and the heating mats got 10 degrees plus on the pots, I am very confident that it will at least bring something for the last cold month πŸ˜ƒ πŸ™πŸ». I've started flowering even if some are still a bit small, but otherwise they'll get too wide from training and end up taking up space :-) until then have fun and stay healthy πŸ™πŸ» πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ You can buy this Nutrients at : https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ With the discount code: Made_in_Germany you get a discount of 15% on all products from an order value of 100 euros. πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘‡πŸΌ You can buy this strain at : https://www.exoticseed.eu/de/hanfsamen/hippie-therapy-cbd Water πŸ’§ πŸ’§πŸ’§ Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

alright, how y'all doing? this week I did defoliated both plants, for the last time, I hope. The Rd started to flowering few days earlier, and the SS on the other hand, is very small in size, I confess when defoliating the next day it looked I didn't do lol. 😡, but yeah I noticed the plants now are going int flowering so no more defoliation for now.. SS its showing it gender but still very shy 😜, I keep telling her, hey, don't be shy be like your friend right there all showing off.. πŸ˜‡. alright.. feeding schedule.. I was doing some research and couldn't find much at all about mixing different types of fertilisers brand... so I got this advanced nuts ( carlbooad was sent cause they ran out of bud candy but in the website it was available nd on the email I said to send me the big bud then but whatever.. πŸ˜•.. I did made a mistake with the nirvana. ( the bottle says> 2 ml/l during all grow fase and during weeks 3 till6 of blooming. ( on the website doing some research found only tu use during weeks 3 till 6 on bloom.)) so with that said I just used as the bottle said, and it was too late, I mean when I realised I had done it already, some lets hope and prays for the best kkkk.... so for the next feeding this week I won't add nirvana yet..will wait 2 more weeks and then put back inside πŸ˜†. so. I guess its all for today. let me know ur comments below and suggestions, if had the experience mixing different fertiliser and etc.. even if it was a bad experience pls comment.. thanks y'all c u next week... πŸ‘Š

Bon excès de nutriments dans la plante. obliger de faire un gros rinçage, plusieurs avis de cultivateurs mon conseiller de faire cela meilleur moyen pour que la plante repart sur une bonne base, je rajouterai une dose d'enzyme pour nettoyer correctement la base puis croisons les doigts pour qu'il se passe aucun problème par la suite.
