My good friend convinced me that trimming and training are paramount, so I've started with slowly defoliating the Creme de la Chems to try and get to lollipop status. They're just starting to flower, so I figured I could get away with a more aggressive approach. Because I failed to train these girls early, I'm stuck dealing with a little rain forest. What I've tried to do is trace each flower topped stalk up from the base, and trim away from the bottom up. 1/3 of the way up per day. I've now got a thick canopy, and I've been trying to just use leaf tucking and manual manipulation every few hours in order to keep the different height flowering sites in direct light. These ladies have really been thriving, and it's been such a joy to watch them grow! I like having two plants in one net pot letting them grow wild, but I think in my next grow I'll keep it to one per pot and train better from the start. As for the Super Orange Haze ... not as good. I attempted to pull the main branch over to train her to some empty space, but I was too aggressive and ended up popping her head off :(. First grow, first disaster. I took the head and stripped her/coated in clonex and pushed her into some potting soil just to see what would happen. There hasn't been enough foliage to really make me want to do any trimming, I've just tried to tie the stalks off to train them apart. I'm really sad about my mistake decapitation, but she seems to be doing well still. She's probably week 2 of flower based on others' journals. I changed the water midway through the week (which is when the videos were taken). I drained most of the water out, but roots prevented me from getting the last few gallons. When I refilled the res with RO, I measured the PPM at around 200. I have to assume that remaining nutrient was completely unbalanced leftovers, so feeding will have to just have to be experimental. My approach has been to give around 1:1 Gro vs Bloom and Micro every 2-3 days when I refill with RO. I want to build my PPM up to 1000, but slowly so that I can detect if I hit a ceiling first. It's hard to measure how much food is in the water based on PPM. CalMag is what drives it mostly, so I've been using CalMag as a sort of measuring stick. I keep the CalMag pegged to the Bloom food, but I know it's only good for initial dosing. I can't assume the plants are eating CalMag in the same proportion as anything else :(. If anyone has a line on cheap lab testing ... hit me up. I'd love to be able to test a few hundred samples at a time for NPK and trace so that I can tell (even if post facto) what was going on.

I also have runtz muffin, Critical +, and green poison seedlings in here.(for now) these will eventually be outdoor in coco. Thats a different diary to do. Lol but for now this is my indoor set up. Shout out @420fastbuds & @Tastebudz @barneysfarm

Pronto per la fioritura😈😈😈

We got unlucky this week... We were gone for a short vacation over the weekend. We came back late int the night on Sunday. Looking inside the tent, the leaves on one bud of Middleman looked weird. When we saw that at first, I was pretty sure that we have bud rot. However there was no energy left in us to do anything with the plants. So we took a closer look the next day. On Monday, checking with the lights on, the bud on Middleman looked bad. We opened it up, revealing mold in the early to mid stages of Botrytis. Looking back, there were signs of this on the day we left, but unluckily we didnt notice it. Funny enough, this was actually my favorite shoot out of all plants, since it looked so good overall and I looked at this particular shoot more than any other :/. We keep it going. Other buds look good for now and we dont have long to go.

Mr. Pipi has only friends with bad Noses. No one can smell the Wild Strawberries...nontheless... looks so gooood... Biggie, Biggie, Biggie can´t you see? Day89: What can Pipi say. Every other Day some Calmag... a little bittle topDress yesterday. Pipi´s thoughts are this is girl vegged 9 Weeks and is in an 8 Liter fabric Pot. Couldn´t transplant her, but Topped and trained her. So i want Biggie Buddies, so since she´s in Flower week 3/4 that´s my last Chance to enrich the soil with dry nutrients for them to dissolve mostly and i can 'flush'. So i wanna feed her more than the 8 Litres could hold, but carefully and step by step. And just a little. No Pipi was used on this plant.

11March (VegDay24) Start of week 4 of Veg and with some minor defoliation on both girls, going to stabilize PH at 5.8/6.0 in the coming days. the girls are having 1lt each every 24h RR1 looks like she could do some more so I will start doing 1.2lt for her and keep RR2 at 1lt. 12March (vegDay25) Din some more LST on RR1 and took off 2 big fan leaves also RR2 have some more LST and small defoliation. 13March (vegDay26) increased watering for RR1 to1.5lt also increase nuts and stabilized PH at 6. 14March (vegday27) increased amount of water for both girls today and got a decent amount of runoff! slightly increased a bit more the nuts for one last time before the addition of bloom nuts end of this week. both girls continue to stretch and look healthy. RR1 50cm+3cm RR2 41cm+7cm 15March (Vegday28) as of today, bud candy of AN is part of the team as from now PH is steady and plats look amazing! 17March start of pre-flowering both girls have heavy signs of buds, will mix both grow and bloom nut as from this feed.

Ужэ 17 день активнова цветения , 2 недели без изменения всё идёт нормально жду середины 3 недели чтоб провести лёгкую дефоляцию . С удовольствием жду вашы коментарии , советы , вапросы и дажэ критику ;)

This has got to be one of the best Plants i have ever grown. The Taste and Sweet smell is like A Starburst . Cherry , ice cream . Buzz is Smooth And very high but mellow . 10/10 👌

Holy Sunday She is two weeks in flower and grows so vigours. Every Day I keep on tucking the branches under the strings. The Screen is slowly filling up. In 4 or 5 days I will stopp tucking. Light Power: 80% Day 53 Flower #8 Watered with 2,5L freshly brewed compost tea Sprayed with freshly brewed compost tea Day 56 Flower #11 Watered 2 L tap water

FLOWER WEEK 1 ⭐️Nutrients Used⭐️ Front Row AG Si .5g per gallon Front Row AG Part A 3.3g per gallon Front Row AG Part B 2.2g per gallon Front Row AG Phoszyme .4g per gallon Front Row AG Bloom 2.6g per gallon Front Row AG CleanUp .3g per gallon This has been a great week. Some of the basics are coming together. Lights have been gradually raised by 5-10% every day except the last 2 days. By the end of week 2 flower they will be 100% and will stay there until last week of flower. Temp is 80 degrees, humidity is 60% and will also stay that way until the last 10 days of flower. I will go another week of tucking branches under the net to try and let the last plant reach the net. It’s just not stretching like the others. I need at least a week of stretch with vertical growth, so my smallest plant needs to catch up. There has to be 300+ tops in this 4x12 area. Every single node was topped 7-10 days before flower. Each branch has multiple nodes now. Between day 14-25 everything under the net will be removed. Clones were taken of every plant for a hopeful keeper pheno. Gonna try the whole “mother plant full clone run” for the next grow. By the end of week 2 parameters will be 1500ppm co2 1200-1500 ppfd 80 degrees 60% humidity Thanks for all the support and see you next week.

Identified a bit of browning in some pistil, I didn’t think it was supposed to occur this early, could somebody please help me identify.

Im still continuing the rest. Will update on the harvest this weekend

Super stinky, eye irritatingly. Harvest is gonna be fun. Reduced the A&B, cut out P/K and molasses. Added mamoth P(free sample) I dont know if It'll do shit but eh free. I've got enough for next grow too. PUrple kush 5 plants in seedling stage now.

Ya van por la 3 semana de flora y empiezan a salirle pelos ,la poison es hembra menos mal que no le salían pelos ,ahora tengo otro problema se me están poniendo las hojas grandes amarillas ,imagino que nitrógeno hoy las he regado con celta nueve y con alga grow por si acaso era defi de nitrógeno como las veis ????antes de este riego estaba hechando crecimiento Bloom de Bloom notrients y tuvieron una sobrealimentación por nitrógeno ,le hice lavado de raízes y parece que me pide nitrógeno

These ladies did'nt stretched much so far in week 2 but that could be due to the light intensity and distance I had it at in week 1 of the stretch period. This strain is really starting to show signs of that Gassy, Sweet, Creamy smelly that I was looking for and so far these ladies have been a breeze to grow.

It’s been a good week for this girl. I caught the Vid, and have been doing the very minimum to can get away with to keep her going. No training, but I did do a little bit of defoliation. Temp and RH was steady for the large part. I’ll be transplanting her to a 4 gallon pot next week, and again once I clear my tent of the other 3 autos I have going, I will transplant again to her 7 gallon final pot. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦👊😊

Beautiful purple

Whats up again from down under growmies... Well its been a quiet week for me, plants are on auto pilot atm, nothing much to do aside from watering them with a light feeding mixed in. Starting to have to water more often now and the plants are making it obvious they are happier with more frequent watering's so thats what they are now getting. Caramelo has recovered even more from my mistake of over strength lime sulfur spray- lost a few bud sites that were totally burnt away and now there is a space on the stem where a popcorn bud should be but its not. But aside from that shes looking good. Hash plant is really getting going into bud now, for a near pure indica she has taken the longest to start flowering- hope thats not a sign she will be a light yielder...still if its old school hashy bud thats makes your eyes so red you look in the mirror and think "woah zombie!!" then I'll be pleased. And Zkittlez- what can I say. Just LOOK at her!! How the hell is this plant only 4 and a bit weeks into flower?? If you told me that plant was in week 6 id believe you. And smell is amazing. Sweet and sour just like candy. And can be smelt from 20 feet away easy...lols.
