26-09-2021: 3rd week of veg-stage. Great. Will the be the last week or am I going to let them grow another week. I am switching to 12/12 as soon as the containers are not visible anymore. Then I also put the light on 100% power (75 right now). I sprayed the leaves with Hy-Pro Spraymix. Also topped the Runtz Muffin to slow her down a bit. Ladies almost touching the SCROG-net so probably next week starting to SCROG. I like that period on soil. Had no succes on hydro jet so I am curious how this will go. 27-09-2021: Ok.. The growth is good now, it's nice to see how they get a boost as soon as the roots hit the water. 5 cm in 1 night is really no exception. In the meantime, the first Gelato has just tapped it, so topped it right away. Now in doubt... The EC is at 1.1 and as you can see in the diagram below, the EC decreases slightly over a period of 3 days and the PH increases slightly. In fact, this indicates that the EC set is now almost perfect. (In a perfect situation the values โ€‹โ€‹remain the same and only the water level drops). So I can go up slightly with the EC and the system is set up in such a way that as soon as the clock turns the EC goes to 1.4. However, I still assume that I am 3 weeks of pre-growth (that is now 11 days) and that means that the EC is still on the low side for 11 days. A low EC ensures faster growth is my experience so far (and is also confirmed by what I read about it). Now I can choose 2 options... continue to grow for a few more days on the low EC and then a little earlier to 12 hours or increase the EC slightly for stronger roots and trunks and then complete the 11 days. The danger of the latter is that they continue to grow quickly and that I will soon have a much too full net (after all, they generally want to grow considerably after the switch). Tough decision. Lighting basically the same story. Now running at 75% and I see nice wide plants with big leaves. Under the TSL, the plants are much more even than under the SP3000. You can see very well that the SP3000 actually hangs above the front row of ladies and that the light does not radiate to the back row. The TSL suffers significantly less from this. I could solve this by hanging the SP3000 a little higher for more spread, but the purpose of this test is to compare. What do you think? increase both lamps to 45 cm and then at 100% or just continue? The danger of raising is that they will stretch more and I don't want that because my net has a fixed height and that has proven to be fine in the past for an even scrog (see also Jack Herer round). I have to say that I can't wait for the ladies to hang full in the net. Daily tying is a very therapeutic activity for me, as is photographing the buds as they begin to take shape. Then I ask for advice on the following... I ordered Green Sensation this week with the idea of โ€‹โ€‹adding it from the 4th week of flowering. My nutrition computer can only work on the basis of proportions (in this case 5ml/L hydor A/B and 1ml/L green sensation). However, the bottle advises to dose green sensation first and then adjust the EC. My computer won't do this. I therefore wonder whether I will not dose too little Green Sensation. How could I solve this? (daily manual dosing is not an option because of the recirculating system). 28-09-2021: Refreshed the water, Sunday/monday switching to 12/12. Irrigation turned off for rest of the round so I hope for the little lady that she survives that. Bond First Lady under the net so scrogging is starting now ๐Ÿ˜ฌ 29-09-2021: Today I snapped the Red Hot Cookies (the only one๐Ÿ˜ข) so moved the little purple Haze in her place. Besides that I decided that it is time for 12/12 so I switch the light scheme 3 days earlier. Hoping that an tiger EC will strengthen them a bit.

This week again had some challenges with power and humidity but we push on. The ladies are getting seriously frosty and start to fatten up. They all looking good but the Lemon Zkittles is most impressive. Also the one pheno of Gorrila Cookies is frosty frosty frosty. But all the plants are looking good and stacking on buds nicely. Looking forward to harvesting in a couple of weeks. Here to hoping no more power or humidity issues, only fat and tasty buds ahead

This week I upped the Coco Grow nutrients to half strength, I was worried that it might be too big of a jump up but she seems to have taken it in her stride and is showing some nice growth. The next time you see her she'll be topped and re-potted into a 5L air pot.

2/10: I watered today with about 3/4 gallon each, plus cal-mag, signal, bembe, armor si, a little open sesame, and their final dose of endoboost. The shorter one is budding up quickly now. 2/11: Wife home sick today....postponing construction project to raise the lights. 2/12: Today, I tackled the project to raise my ceiling another foot. In addition to that project, I installed and hooked up my new AC Infinity 6" intake fan. It's pulling in fresh air from the soffit vent on the eave of the attic, and currently feeding the garden with 46f fresh air. I'm able to easily maintain daytime temps in the lower 70f's now. I am able to drive the nighttime temps as low as I want. The only issue is that the outdoor RH varies quite a bit, so I ordered a 30-pint dehumidifier to put in the top of the closet. I sprayed everybody with boomboom spray to try and mitigate the light burn damage that is likely to ensue. 2/13: The taller one is still stretching a little bit, but the 2-footer is just budding up. 2/14: I fed them today with about 3/4 gallon each including grow big, big bloom, tiger bloom, cal-mag, signal, bembe, humic acid, and I switched over from Open Sesame to Beastie Bloomz. Raised the lights another couple of inches. I did some training on them and defo'd a little bit. 2/15: Installed the new dehumidifier and rigged the continuous drain on it...works great. 2/16: I rotated the edge plants and removed some old leaves. I added another 22w 3000k 4' bar light under the canopy. 2/17: I rearranged the garden and defoliated a little bit. That's it for week 8-

รˆ stata una settimana bellissima e calda. Tutte le varietร  sono vicine alla fase finale della fioritura e ognuna ha il suo forte aroma particolare. Tutte quasi piene di infiorescenze dure e molto appiccicose ormai stanno completando il loro processo di fioritura in maniera impeccabile. Come sempre queste varietร  dutchfem seeds autofiorenti sono una soddisfazione! Alcune sono di tipo XXL mentre altre di taglia media ma sono tutte piene di infiorescenze e continuano a riempirsi quindi verrร  applicata una raccolta graduale tra una settimana o due al massimo. Sparito ogni insetto nelle piante a causa della resina appiccicosa. Sono felice un abbraccio a tutti.

Iโ€™m loving these yellow training clips I bought off Amazon. Super easy to attach and adjust. Seems to be less hard on the stems vs. the wire Iโ€™d been using. Starting to node out big time!

Hello! First and foremost.. thanks for stopping by! After many years and dreams of growing I'm finally giving it a go. I will update this "diary" every Sunday with the previous weeks progress. All feedback is welcome as long as it's done in a constructive manner. Please keep in mind this is my first grow and will be learning and making adjustments as I go. I am growing in tent indoors in the Midwest. STRAINS: 7 Super Skunk 1 Tahoe OG Possible HiFi 4g & Slurricane clone EQUIPMENT: 5x5 Vivosun grow tent 1 ViparSpectra P2000 LED (additional LED will be added in 2 weeks.. next payday ๐Ÿคช) AC Infinty 6 inch Carbon Filter AC infinity cloudline T6 fan 3 gallon smart pots Two 11 inch honeywell "desktop" fans Vivosun Seedling heat mat Seed Sarting station InkBird humidity Controller 8 socket surge protector with built in timer Ducting Metal grating Rope hangers Zip ties Solo Cup Fine mist spray bottle SOIL/NUTRIENTS Fox Farms Light Warrior seedling starter soil Roots Organic Original Soil Distilled water (room temp with Avg PH 6.3) Coconut water 50ml/gallon Roots Organic dry fertilizer lineup January 11th - ordered 20 Super Skunk feminized seeds from ILGM.com. the order process and payment was easy and intuitive. Was updated by email every step of the way. I did not pay the extra $25 for the ability to track my package, however ILGM did email me once product was shipped as well as when product was out for delivery. January 25th- Seeds delivered. Pkg was discreet. I would have like to see some type of pkg that took into account the cold weather, however I was home to pick up pkg so it wouldn't sit out in cold. January 26th- today is the day I attempt my first germination. I decided to germinate 6 seeds using the direct in soil method. Soil I am using for germination is Fox Farms Light Warrior. Watered with distilled water that was at room temperature with an avg PH of 6.2. Germinating in a seed starter tray using a seed heat mat. January 27th - Watered as needed January 28th- First seed sprouted. Germaninated an additional 6 feminized super skunk seeds using same method as above. Watered as needed. Recieved two tahoe OG seedlings from a friend. They are roughly a week ahead of mine. Both seedlings have a little yellowing on leaves. Both seedlings were transplanted into FF light warrior soil. Watered as needed. Placed in tent under ViparSpectra P2000 LED at 25% power 30 inches above. Tent at 71ยฐ F 65% Humidity at 18/6 light cycle. January 29th- two additional seeds sprouted. One seed from first batch pushed itself out from soil and tap root was exposed. Gently placed back in soil. (No change since) Second seed sprouted was from second batch germinated. Watered as needed using coconut water at 50ml/gallon. January 30th- Two additional seeds sprouted. Both are from second batch. Watered as needed. Added 10inch fan into grow tent set on low. January 31st- These two as well as sprout from yesterday were transplanted into Solo cups with FF light Warrior soil and moved into tent with same parameters as above except LED was moved to 40% power. Watered as needed. Feb 1st - started germanting 3 more SS seeds. Dug up the 4 seeds that had not germinated and trying a second time. No water for other seedlings today. Feb 2nd- no water Feb 3rd- 1 seedling emerged from the soil!! Watered with coconut water ๐Ÿ’ง End of the week thoughts: I believe I watered both the seeds and the sprouts way too much. Backing off water until soil is dry. In the future I would like to try germinating in water and paper towel. I like this idea as I know whether or not the tap root pops... currently I'm left wondering ๐Ÿ˜” Questions: At what point are the plants in VEG? Is it as soon as they sprout? Any idea why some leaves on the Tahoe OG are yellow? Some new sprouts are also more like green than others.. thoughts? 18/6 or 24 for veg.. thoughts?

Day 1 week 1 flower I switched my lights to 12/12 as my clones were getting taller then I would like so I flipped them a little earlier then intended. On day 3 I defoliated lower growth(suckers) to focus growth towards top of the canopy. On day 4 I changed out my reservoir and added my flower nutes. On day 6 I defoliated my plants to increase air flow lower in the canopy. On day 7 of week 1 flower the clones are doing well. They are still stretching, the leaves look really healthy and I can see the beginning of flower clusters forming.

Week is looking good so far. Kaya's Coffee is a taller plant with less leaves than other strains. Where it lacks in leaves it adds in height. I have been removing damaged leaves from light burn slowly but surly. day 13 have leaves getting yellow on the ends... Adjusted my PH down from 6.0 to 5.5. I was keeping the PH high for the plants to take up more Cal-Mag. So I'm thinking the PH is keeping them from taking up Nitrogen causing the plant to take it from other leaves.

The girls are almost ready for hearvesting. Because of that and to "purge" them from nutrients, this week I fed with molasses only and I'm going ahead with water only for the remaining days. I think next week will be hearvest time ๐Ÿ˜€
