Week 11, msxbe 1 or 2 more i guess

4/13 SEE LAST ENTRY on germination BEFORE READING THIS WEEK. Like I said I didn't listen to my intuition and a rat got to one of my ethos 10th planet. All plants have been transplanted into solo cups with mycos with happy frog as the medium. The peat pods were all dried out it seemed. Must be were the humidity changed when i moved them last night. Substrate will change to a mix of roots organic, hf, and ffof when I plant up. I hope I have these lights high enough. I am using two 150 hps lights to grow these seedlings as best I can before they go outdoors. Rh outside today is like 36%.Forgot my timer but I'm coming back. Hopfully this will go alright I'm excited. 4/14 Aerogarden lights are way to weak. Plants have stood right back up after I put them under the two hps lights. I was worriedcabout damping off but so far everything looks good. Lights turned on perfect. Rh is 70 temp outside is 50. It reached 75 but well probably get another noreaster. Hope the good weather keeps up amd I'll have am early planting season. UPDATE PLANTS LOOKED GOOD AT NOON TIME. NO WATER. ILL Be here tonight and check again tomorrow. The plants get quite a bit of light from that window 4/14 and 4/15 plants seem to be doing better. The solo cups that were light I dipped the very bottom of the cup in a cup of water about an inch. The cups that were lighter I gave two reasons of water around the edge of the cup. No more water I guess until it dries out. I'm not used to doing seeds. Kinda depressing looking at my last few diaries during this time and seeing huge clones not seedlings. Whatever at least they won't have tons if shit wrong with them. It's been beautiful. I'm really looking forward to this season. UPDATE I CHANGED THECPOSITION OF MY LIGHT FIXTURE. I LOWERED THE LIGHT AS SOME PLANTS SEEMED TO HE STRETCHING. AFTER VIDEO CHAT WITH A COMMERCIAL GROWER I CLOSED THE BLINDS. I HAVE AN ANXIETY DISORDER SO I WORRY A LOT. I AM USING HPS BULBS BUT ITS ALL I HAVE FOR NOW. IM CONSIDETING PICKING UP A CHEAP LED LIGHT. HOWEVER, THE COMMERCIAL GROWER ALSO TOLD ME TO DO "WHAT I NORMALLY DO." WHICH I AM. I KUST GOT A LITTLE LATE START ON AN EARLY SEASON. 4/16 Despite the cups being a little dry I'm going to wait to water. When I do I think I'm goingvti soak the cup from the bottom up. Plants are really starting to take hold. Stretching a bit due to the hps bulb but that's just going to give them a strong stem. Plus I have the sky as the limit. I need to say these things as I feel like I'm behind. I have some autos I might run too. UPDATE: I watched several videos on watering seedling in solo cups. I weighed a Dr cup of soil and it was 196 grams. I weighed wet soil and it was in the 300s (hadn't totally drained). My seedling security os weren't much more than the dry soil. 207, 220 ect. Some were a little higher. I TRIED to water from the bottom up earlier by sitting the cup in a bowl but it didn't seem to work as well. Instead I phed my water and watered all the cups. I used two regular water bottles (16oz?) For the 14 plants. I'm glad I came over to check. Soil was dead dry on some and breaking away from the cup. I got run off in the trays and dumped it. I did this multiple times but im unsure if i got it all I'm just worried about dampening off or over watering. Plants look good though and are starting to take off. I'm hoping for the best. UPDATE AGAIN LOL. I got the feeling I wanted to check things out again so I went over and shut all but one if the shades. Why I didn't do that one I have no idea but since that deep watering earlier today the plants have SHOT up in size! And it's not like they're stretching. It looks it but the stalk is fucking strong looking and thick lol. The colors on the leaves have taken a much better tone and the tertiary leaves have now begun to develop at a pretty good rate! Using this scale is going to make watering much easier! 4/17 One light is brighter than the other. I can tell. The four under one light were drier on top and weighed less. I just plan on rotating the trays that way they will have what they need. Stopping at a commercial grower to show footage and ask questions. If I need to I will buy another light bur this had worked good for me in the past. I can't believe the plants shot up that much! I even say tertiary leaves on some of them! They went into a paper towel like the night of the eight so they aren't even week old seedlings. However, my cousin had seedlings later than this last year and he still had some plants that were bigger than mine! I weighed my cups again and everything seems OK. I think. I may need to water more often. I'm keeping a close eye on it. A fan is blowing GENTLY from far away. UPDATE: Went back over around five and I'm not sure it's one light brighter. I think maybe those big fat Ethos seeds are just drinking more water. Got the scale out again and used a different scale to measure. 180 for a dry full cup of soil. Yesterday was 196 dry cup? Soaking wet its like 350. Soil that looked dry and weighed like 220 240 got a little bit of water. I checked and there was no run off. Plants are stretching due to the HPS bur the stalk looks thick and strong. Healthy. They have a great vibrant green color and tertiary leaves are starting. 4/18 The 10th planet seedlings seem to bexdrinking more water than the others. Everything looks good and healthy. I didn't have much time this morning but topsoil was dry and cups weighed low 200's so I watered the seedlings a little bit. They probably need a full watering which I'll do when I get back. I used one bottle of water on the plants that needed it. I need to keep an eye on the soil on the solo cups. The two 150hps lights def dry the soil out faster. 4/18 Plwnts are doing great. Everything has tertiary leaves now. Stretching a bit but that's probably due to the HPS. I'll be lowering it soon. One bottle of water gives each ofvthe 14 seedlings a shotglass of water. I'll keep an eye on them and when they need a bigger drink I'll give it to them. Those Etho's 10th planet seeds are off to the races! I took pics but I did it in "work" mode and since my email is at a university I have difficulty uploading the pictures. If they don't come out I'll just put some up tomm. Also I noticed a piece of seed stick below the pool of one seedling. I wantedcto make sure it wasn't a scale but but its not. I sprites it and hopfully it will just fall off. I'll keep my eye on it. Pots are washed. I need to wash grow bags and my structure. I also need yo poison the area the ear wigs live.

30/06/2022 - Day 42 - First day of the 7th week. Main stem bended and lost one of the lowest lower branches because of some traumatic events due to a strong windy day. Unfortunately this is part of the game when growing #OUTDOOR . First signs of the purple 😍💜 Wish me good luck and let's hope in sunny mild days 🤞☀️ - DD

Day 92. Almost there. Will flush next week.

Another week has gone by and I like were this is going !! I hope to be able to flip in 2 weeks. The tripple cheese #2 is developing indica like leaves. I included a video showing a water dripper that I tought was cool.

She was left to dry for 13 days. I smoked some of her buds while drying. Offical weight could of been higher if I had the patience. She have a unique smell, very fruity and musky. I will have to wait for the cure to give more fair analysis. I smoke her in the evening when I am winding down after work and preparing for sleep. I had to weigh her in two parts. One part I took my time to trim the other I just gave a rough trim and placed in jars. I took about 3hrs to trim.

3rd week of 12/12, all is well. The flowers have already a lot of trichromes. I add the Athena KP on the 23rd day of 12/12, in two days. I made a defoliation, it breathes, it grows... With the pythium I had growing, it slowed my stretch, with so much growth, it should have been more important. See you on the 28th day of 12/12

Flowering day 22 since time change to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) Another great week that is over. They all develop exactly as it should be 💚. Since the last leaf and substrate application against tripse, I finally haven't seen any of the little biters 👍. Watering was done twice this week with 1.3 l each time (see table above for nutrients). The lowest shoots were removed so that the energy is not wasted in the lower part :-) . Otherwise, as always, everything was cleaned and checked. Fresh osmosis water was filled with stale tap water in a 100 L tank for the coming week 👍. Have fun and stay healthy 💚🙏🏻 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 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. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 You can buy this Strain at https://pcg.international/shop/pcg-int/ Water 💧 💧💧 Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EC.

Greetings, fellow cultivators! It is with great pleasure that I bring you the mesmerizing tale of my magnificent Purple Lemonade FF, now gracefully waltzing through Week 4 of flowering. This chapter is laden with enchanting transformations, from the beauty of topping in her vegetative stage to the emergence of a strong and resilient Mama plant in the flowering phase. Let us first journey back to the vegetative phase, where we dared to take the bold step of topping our beloved Purple Lemonade FF. Oh, how that decision has borne fruit! Topping her allowed us to encourage lateral growth, resulting in a symphony of branches that stretch toward the sky like outstretched arms. Her canopy has become a verdant sea of green, filled with potential bud sites that promise a bountiful harvest to come. Our purple queen has indeed evolved into a formidable Mama, commanding attention and respect from her sisters in the grow room. As we glance upon her, surrounded by siblings of different genetics, it becomes evident that she is the crown jewel of our garden. Her strength and vitality serve as an inspiration to all, a testament to the care and devotion poured into her cultivation. In our quest to protect this botanical paradise, the yellow traps have proven to be invaluable defenders. Our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy has been a resounding success, thanks to these humble yet effective tools. The traps act as sentinels, capturing and preventing pests from wreaking havoc on our precious plants. With these guardians in place, our Purple Lemonade FF and her companions can flourish without the fear of harmful intruders. But let us not forget what makes our Purple Lemonade FF truly remarkable—the purples! Oh, how they have grown stronger with each passing day. As if infused with magic, the hues of purple have intensified, painting the buds and leaves with a mesmerizing array of colors. The visual spectacle is a testament to the unique beauty that nature bestows upon us, and our plant is a living masterpiece, the star of the show. Now, prepare to be astonished, for the trichomes have reached levels that defy expectations for this stage of flowering. These tiny crystal-like structures sparkle like stars in the night sky, promising potent delights that await us in the future. The sheer abundance of trichomes is a testament to the care and precision with which we have nurtured our Purple Lemonade FF throughout her journey. And now, my dear companions, I am delighted to share with you some captivating photos of the entire room, where our Purple Lemonade FF stands proudly among her sisters of diverse genetics. Each plant is a unique testament to the wonders of nature, a celebration of biodiversity that fills our hearts with joy. The sight is breathtaking, and I can't help but marvel at the beauty of this green oasis we have created. As we continue to witness the wonders of flowering, I am filled with gratitude for the opportunity to share this journey with all of you. Your unwavering support and enthusiasm fuel my passion for cultivation, and I am honored to be in the company of fellow nature enthusiasts. Until our next update, may your gardens continue to thrive, and may the magic of cultivation forever inspire you. Together, we celebrate the art of nurturing life and the boundless beauty of Mother Nature's creations. Thank you, and happy growing! As always, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for joining me on this enthralling journey.

https://lumatek-lighting.com/ <3 <3 <3 Growers love to you all <3 <3 <3 " Arising from a cross between purple and citrus Cali genetics, Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) offers a complex high made up of perfectly balanced cerebral and body effects that are ideal for daytime use. Expect an extremely enjoyable high that boosts your mood while deeply relaxing your whole body and getting rid of muscle pain. This meticulous cross produces up to 550 g/m2 of some of the most beautiful purple buds, with pinkish and reddish hues that will catch everyone’s attention. The beautiful purple buds are ready for harvest in 7-8 weeks and come hand-in-hand with unbelievably sugary citrus terps that are just as refreshing as a cold lemonade on a hot Summer day. It’s the ideal variety for the sweet-tooth stoner seeking strains that deliver both in quality and quantity of resin. Bud Description Purple Lemonade FF grows chunky, spade-shaped buds that boast a whole range of pinkish-purple hues with rich, dark orange pistils shooting out of every direction. This variety stands out for the, oftentimes, lilac trichomes that give them a gorgeous pink tint and make for outstanding purple concentrates. The buds give off a delicious tart lemon aroma that reveals a sweeter, more fruity scent as you break the buds open. Definitely a must for flavor chasers and those looking for pungent terpene profiles. Smoke Reports Purple Lemonade FF offers an effect that’s just as unique as the flavor. Expect a potent uplifting high that gives you that energy boost you need to get things done while 100% happy and stress-free. The effect gradually transforms into a wave that works its way along the limbs and through the muscles, deeply relaxing your body and putting you in the right mindset to go through a busy day with a huge smile on your face. This is an excellent all-day smoke as it not only increases energy but can also help combat chronic pain, migraine and stress. Plant Appearance This feminized photoperiod variety develops a thick and strong structure, growing a medium-sized main cola with multiple shorter side branches, typical of hybrid strains. Purple Lemonade FF develops fairly short internodal spacing with gorgeous purple buds growing stacked on top of each other, making it the perfect choice for growers of all levels looking to get lots and lots of top-shelf purple weed, as this variety can produce up to 550 g/m2 in a 7-8 week flower cycle. Grow Tips This is a super fast feminized photoperiod version that takes approximately 7-8 weeks to flower with a 5-week vegetation cycle,, this means you can have faster harvests by shortening the veg cycle or have a longer veg cycle for bigger yields. Purple Lemonade FF (Fastflowering) makes for a great candidate for growers of all levels as it’s a vigorous strain that will thrive with basic maintenance both indoors and outdoors. This is a resin powerhouse so make sure to have your trim bin close by as all the resinous sugar leaves will make for the most mouth-watering hash and extracts. Flavor Expect a long-lasting citrus zest that taste just like it smells. Purple Lemonade FF reeks of a delicious blend of sweet fruits and tart citrus that’ll make your mouth water. On the inhale, expect sour flavors that taste just like lemon candy with hints of orange and a really subtle earthy background. And on the exhale, the citrus flavors open up, giving place to a more sugary berry fruitiness that leaves your whole mouth tasting like an extremely sweet weed-infused lemonade.

More than a day in the drying tent and I'll give you the report on the weight, the taste and the effects! ‐----------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINAL WEIGHT : 153,5 g Effect : very pleasant. I have the impression of being in a cotton field. Taste : cream berries 🍓🍓🍓🍓 Peace to all ✌️🏽✌️🏾✌️✌️🏿✌️🏻✌️🏼 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ✔️Pheno 1 : the appearance of the flower is much more purple than the other two phenotypes. Her effect is much more sativa as well. ✔️Pheno 2 : The strawberry taste is much more pronounced. In this phenotype, there is a not at all unpleasant mint aftertaste !! ✔️Pheno 3 : the effect is felt very quickly. In a few seconds, you find yourself in a state of joy. It's very nice !!!!

Week 7 was all about letting her shine on her own. On Day 43, I gave her a full-strength compost tea after a solid dryback to recharge the soil. The next day, I released all of the LST ties completely — she held her shape beautifully, so I went ahead and cleaned up the lower fluff with a light lollipopping to boost airflow. I also spotted some gnats, so I laid down a solid layer of DE across the topsoil. On Day 44, I refilled her auto-watering base and tucked a few fan leaves to keep light reaching the inner sites. The following morning (Day 46), I gave her a Big Bud feed at 2.5 ml per gallon and refilled the base again. I also started using a pH kit to bring my feed water into the 6.2–6.5 range, which I’ll be doing consistently now. Trichomes are building up across the sugar leaves, pistils are still mostly white, and her structure is solid without needing any ties. By the end of the week, I noticed a few small splash marks from previous feeds and a couple tiny speckles on a top leaf — likely early light stress, so I’m keeping an eye on it. Overall she’s deep in mid-flower and stacking up beautifully. Week 8 should be a frosty one.

So 7 days after the start of germination all seeds have germinated and broken through the soil, only one of the seeds haven’t yet unfolded her leaves and that might have been because i helped her get the seed off to early but overall it is looking good and week one of veeg is about to begin.

Alright I've updated this postmortem and cure just to give an idea of what I was up to during the dry and cure weeks. This grow was a ton of work and I'm very please with the results. I learned a ton about soil and environment control and really feel like I'm gaining confidence and coming into my own as a cultivator. I've been playing a lot with ice water hash and rosin and have set some neat goals for the future like hunting ice water hash cultivars, going perpetual and expanding the amount of canopy I can work with by building a network of remote-operated satellite flower tents in friends' and family's abodes . I'm not sure I'll go through all this effort of documentation here again, but please follow along on my instagram, stay in touch and chill out with me sometime @Fullmeltalchemist.00 All in all, I was running 1000w of quantum board across three tents and pulled just over 1100 grams, which was a big goal of mine. Thanks for all the advice and love growmies! And thanks growdiaries for the platform. It's been coo.

She's almost ready for harvest. Right now, she will be on plain water for six days. Next, I'll give her one final big flush, let the coco dry out, and then it’s chop time. This strain is looking very dense and is covered in a nice amount of trichomes. Most of them are cloudy now, with a few amber ones starting to appear.

📅 Week 10 – Day 69 / FLO35 🌞 Temp: 26–28°C 💦 RH: 60% 💥 PPFD: 720 µmol/m²/s 🌬️ VPD: ~1.3 Nothing major this week – the flowers are stacking up nicely considering the conditions we have during this summer run. It's warm during the day and warm at night, so metabolism isn’t running at its best. A lot depends on the weather now, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for cooler nights to help things along. Stay wild – and keep growing 🌱

Utopia Haze is a rare heavily sativa dominant hybrid (90% sativa/10% indica) strain created through back crossing Brazilian Sativa strains. This tasty little bud took home 1st Place for Best Sativa in the 2008 High Times’ Cannabis Cup and for good reason – with its potent 18-22% average THC level and long lasting cerebral effects, Utopia Haze is one powerhouse smoke. The Utopia Haze high comes on soon after you finish your first toke, hitting you with a strong cerebral lift that infuses you with a sense of hazy relaxation. Type: Feminised/Photoperiod Cultivation: Indoor/Outdoor Flowering Time (days): 70-75 Indoor Yield (g): Up to 650 Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month: October Feminised Outdoor Harvest Month Week: 3rd-4th week Aroma: Citrus, Woody, Pungent, Mint Effect: Cerebral Lift, Hazy Relaxation, Sleepy Welcome Everyone to the Final Entry of my Utopia Haze Grow ! There is so much to discuss ! I have been extremely busy as of late trying to get this Harvest together, but i am happy to have it here for you now ! I Seriously under estimated the amount of time, help from others, and my own necessary skills to pull this off.. and i still kind of screwed it up lol ! But its worth noting i have never actually done this before and trying to document it during....was extremely hard. It is next to impossible to work an iPhone with rubber gloves on ! First I want to discuss everything step by step so before you jump straight into the comments on how the end product is so small in "quantity" Rest assured i am happy with its"quality"...and thats all that matters to me because Life is a journey not a destination! and i have learned so much from this grow that I couldn't be any happy even if i messed some things up :) But at the very least I hope you read through this entry in its entirety with an open mind and focus more on the process, rather than just the outcome! I ran out of Ice & i was only able to wash three times..(normally I've heard you should go sometimes 5-6 washes) Preparation is Key & things will be much better next round :) Photos 1-22 These are pretty self explanatory but for those of you just tuning in now.. this is what happens to a very happy plant when you don't have the necessary tools to monitor key components of growing cannabis.. Ph, as well as EC levels play a very key role in the outcome of your grow lol that being said I was just able to save this plant by purchasing both tools but that doesn't mean the plant didn't suffer because of the prior events.. This was a Huge reason behind me choosing to turn this harvest into what i would consider "Solventless Hash Rosin" from "Ice water extracted Bubble hash". Pictures 23 The idea here is the process of using "fresh Frozen Cannabis" this has been discussed many a time online on such sites as instagram and here on grow diaries as well.. I personally have Never tried the process so i decided to try it out and make a judgement for myself.. Video 24 The Cannabis has now been in the freezer for 72 hours making it very well frozen.. as you can tell i struggled getting it all into the 25u Screen Wash Bag. One thing of note i would do differently is i will de-stem my next batch as i also believe this played a part in the amount of plant matter that escaped through the sieves. Photo/Video's 25-28 The idea here is "ice water Seiving" & especially with the bags that I am using here that are only have screen material on the bottom portion of the bag it is very important to have spaces in-between the screens to allow the water to pass directly through the screens into the bottom bucket with the least amount of resistance.. because the hash is so extremely temperature dependant if it gets warm on the side of the bag.. it will stick there and not make it to the bottom to become use able product.. 29 You do not need to use as much Ice as i used here lol... the idea is to keep everything very cold..i certainly achieved that but at the sacrifice of using so much that i ended up grinding product and producing "contaminants" but in the end they are just plant matter that i would be smoking when i rolled up my joint either way so.. I'm not super disappointed.. But it should be noted that what you want to achieve here is a Layering effect where you have the wash bag between two small layers of ice while the "water current" washes the Trichomes away allowing them to be separated by the screens setup below :) Before Starting the machine you should allow some time (i.e.;10-12minutes pre soak to allow the product to become saturated) before the first cycle. By video 32 I have just ran out of ice lol.. Video 33-34 Here I have a tip for you.. to separate the screens that you sieve through.. cut 5 gallon buckets to stretch them across nice and tight.. it'll make scooping your Bubble that much easier ! i learned this from the many "Frenchy" videos I have watched :) Picture 35 Here in lays the problem for most people.. drying your hash without loosing vast amounts of "Terpenes" whilst also stay ever vigilant against mold ! Thanks to all those videos I've watched on youtube.. id like to think this was one of my most successful parts of this process.. Things to Note; Terpenes start to seriously evaporate at temperatures 68F or 20C you need to stay as cold as possible whilst bringing the Relative Humidity in the space down into the 40-30% to stay away from that nasty mold ! I used my cold storage room in the basement.. with a dehumidifier running to keep the space at 45% RH & staying at a constant 15c. All while spreading the hash as thin as possible across parchment paper, on top of the white screens with a fan moving air across both sides of the paper. Pictures 36-38 These are some macros i took in the middle of my drying session I fell in love with the colour. Yes i know the black spots are plant material but they will get caught when i bag the hash & squish the oil out. Thing to Note; at this stage it is important to ensure you 'micro plane" the hash down as fine as you can whilst staying weary of the temperature... any "chunks" will hold pockets of moisture.. that lead to potential problems..ie; mold ... Picture/Video 39-41 Successfully planed bubble hash ready to be bagged and Squished ! Picture 42 Ive decided to follow Pedro.. from Pedros Grow Room and double bag to be on the safe side so i don't have any blow outs. So thats One 25u bag inside one 160u bag ! :) Pictures 43 This is almost 3 grams of the bubble hash from above, already melting in the bag.. this is where i ran into trouble again lol things started getting to warm in the house and i was only able to get one of the three squish's i did on video :( things started getting sticky. Picture 44 This is basically just a photo of the equipment I'm using; 3x5 LowTemp Cage in the frame I built myself, with a 20Ton bottle jack. Something to note here is this is an older Lowtemp model with only a single heating zone which is which i have it closed here heating Both sides of the press :) As well as the importance of having adequate pressure on your plates.. my rig is very overkill for the size of hash bags..lol Video 45 Here is the lovely press video.. its didn't quite work the way i wanted either lol my directional folding wasn't quite tight enough for a big "drip" :) &the Press was set to 65°c Photo's 46-50 are pretty self explanatory :) I had a blow out.. but still managed to pull an 80% return from the hash once squished...& yes it tasted amazing :) Was it worth it in the end... that could be debated.. for some..i understand..its not your thing, but for those of us that are interested in making our own concentrates.. free from Solvents... I wouldn't make it any other way :) If even ONE of you reading this diary finds it helpful to reference for ANYTHING.....even if its "what not to do" ill consider it a success ! Thanks again for tagging along on this garden adventure.. its been one heck of a journey ! Much Love from B.C. Canada, Until Next time, Cariboo

These are clones that I managed to take from my summer garden that became a disaster due to a heat wave that we had breaking 100 year records. I expect everything to be 48” in height at maturity.
