All feeds with nutes use either a whole ratio or combination of "Veg Mix" and "Bloom Mix"concentrates DILUTED in water until a total ppm of add in is reached using a (Total Dissolved Solids)TDS Meter measured in PPM (parts per million). The "Veg Mix" concentrate will eventually be added in smaller ratios and "Bloom Mix" concentrate what will eventually replace the "Veg Mix" concentrate entirely with the ppm and ratios listed when I feed. Veg mix recipe is on week 3. Bloom Mix recipe is on week 5. Day 56 Took some glamor pics with black background - not really for vanity (although there's a little) but for contrast. I see more of the lockout issue better in the pics this way. - on that note, the ph seems to be working as it's been two days since defoliation and knitting needle ph correction, and the progression is way slower than it was on the last leaves at 3rd day of identifying. So with that, room VPD of 1.07kpa seems stable enough with temps about 76F/65%RH/33%ILV I released the binds today to let her grow without them until they crowd each other too much and I need to restrain - so in a couple of days at max. Day 62 Transfer day. Although at first I didnt think I would be able to until Saturday, I got pots and plant saucers today, so I ended up going ahead and doing it. Started by calibrating/testing both meters. Double checked the soil mix from yesterday as the last time I used wood ash the ph rose the day after... however this time it was fully mixed to I wanted to know if there would be a higher ph - it was the same as yesterady - 5 reading avg of about 6.35 - the slurry of 1:1 soil and 7.7 ph water was tested at 6.3 also. Made about .75 gallon of 75/25 veg/bloom juice water at 500ppm feed water. Tried to ph read the soil in the pot and seen it go from 6.6 down to 6.35 (took video) in the dry soil, so I decided to use the 6.35 new soil reading and ph balanced the feed to that. Used the needles since it was 7 days since the last feed and I am using such a small amount. Poured over needles in 8 places and pulled each out to let water down. the vacuum pulls the water down when I lift the needles. Then I mixed 5tsp of Dynomyco to the 5 gallons of new soil and mixed really good. I placed a layer of perlite on the bottom of the 10 gallon pot and then layered in some soil. Then with the help of my wife we pulled the plant out of the pot and placed it in the 10 gallon. I place back in the tent and added about a quart of plain de-chlorinated water evenly over the new and older soil to help bind them. I reduced lights by 100ppfd to have about 505 and 500 at center colas and 430 lowest on outer ring with most at 450 and 470 highest. Soil to light is 35 inches and the plant is about 14 inches so about 21 inches from leaves to lights. I left the ring off today and will rebind as needed tomorrow after she rests. Today the leaves look wilted and limp. Also reduced humidity to 60% so 58 to 65% should be the range and the temps are 73F with the lights lower. PPFD was higher with the new growth - unbound and tucked in for better cola/light position, it reads 570 to 580 on outer colas and 590 at both center branches Day 57 Getting 1 more day out of free range growth before I tie her back against a ring. So in that time I decided to take a few vanity pics. Overall the ph block seems to have slowed or stopped and she's back to growing again. Will be thinking about flip at the end of this week or so. VPD same stats 76F/65%RH/33%ILV - ppfd right at max so I'll likely tie her off tomorrow. 605 600 in center and 580 to 590 at the outer ring. Day 58 VPD stats mostly steady again today - 76F/65%RH/33%ILV - ppfd was checked after LST, measured 600 at each center cola and the outer ring measured between 550 and 590 most at 580 So as I said, I did LST today to bind her more out while the 4 center 4 colas fill the middle. I had to bind to the pot base instead of the ring as the colas are still a little short to reach for binds at the ring just yet. There's a lot of space to fill and a few (about half) of the out colas are sideways for now. Had a break at the center cola when I tried to pull it back for bind. I knew to hold the branch at the node but forgot to do it here and heard a "snap" ... taped the crack and moved on - will monitor obviously Day 59 Did more light LST to ensure the branches are growing where I want. PPFD was mostly the same as yesterday only now there are more colas around 560 than 580 on the outer ring with the center colas at 610 and 590 (front cola was tied down to spread more away from the ring and fill center better. vpd same as past week or so 76F/65%RH/33%ILV Last feed was on day 54 and the soil still seems damp so I will check again tomorrow for the next day. (Day 61) The broken branch doesnt seem to have affected either side of the split as both sides seem to have grown a little with little to no wilt or drooping leaves. Im hoping it heals okay and doesnt delay flip to recover more; still monitoring. Day 60 Did some light LST today by releasing the lower binds to the pot and attached as couple to the outer ring now. So far I only have to bind a few as most are already holding where i want them to. Took the tape off the split and seen I didnt seel the gap closed when I taped it so now Im considering a drop of super glue to bind the branch back in hopes it grows onto the other side again. If not at least it would be more secure than it is now. And since it's a main split for 4 colas, I dont want too restrict it by binding at the split and potentially cutting off the nutrient pathways. ppfd after LST was 610 and 600 after more LST and the outer ring is still ranging 550 to 580 with more at 560 now. VPD same as I havent messing with any of the variables. 76F/65%RH/33%ILV Soil is a bit dry and it's been 5 days since the last feed flush, so I have about 3 gallons of tap burning of chlorine now for a feed tomorrow morning. Might still update again later if I find superglue... found some superglue - tried to take pictures but I cant hold, squeeze the applicator, and film with just two hands. So the idea gets through, I did both sides. On a side note I discovered a root popping out of the soil from the top. Covered it up but wasn't sure if I should be concerned. Day 61 VPD same as it's been for most of the last week - 74F/65%RH/33%ILV PPFD was recorded after I turn the plant a quarter turn for the smaller colas struggling to get over he ring's edge to have more light. Most colas at 580 with a couple at 600 and a couple more at 550 - center colas are hitting 615 and 620, but I have plancs to reduce in the next couple of days now On that note, the root growing out of the top tells me that she's hungry and needs more root space, even if that means growing through the top of the soil. So I plan to transplant to a 10 gallon and flip after the recovery. After reviewing more of NugBucket's journal I realized this is why he moves them when growing 16 colas. New pots should be here Friday so I should be able do it on Saturday. So I prepped soil (using more Happy frog with mycorrhizal fungi already growing in it for a few weeks) with de-chlorinated tap water Started by ph testing the soil and the water (4 readings on soil at 5.03 avg) - added about 1/2 cup total of wood ash to bring up the ph , mixed and tested again - added water at (about 7.7 ph) and tested again... last 5 readings in soil was 6.24,6.3,6.35,6.37,6.38 avg of 6.328 - covered and let rest until needed. Since I plan to transplant in a few days I felt it would be best to 'lightly' feed tomorrow, again on transplant day, and again 2 to 3 days later. Since my wife was taking pics at this time, I could only find this one to show the roots growing into the perlite then we planted it in the bigger pot. -------- (Day 62 root base picture from above) I have a hypothesis that says these are so short because I intentionally tried not to move the plant without the base stand to keep it from grinding these up and allowed them to grow in the last 2 weeks. This is that test picture/results. I like the idea of better/more drainage, but thinking I am doing more harm each time I hear those gravel pieces crunch as it cuts those and forces the plant to look somewhere else for root space. Notice how the small root lines have no finer pieces or laterals grow out from these - I believe that is because they are so new in growth and that the perlite chewed up the smaller laterals even with little to no movement over the last two weeks I would like to see a root ball experiment that exposed the roots throughout the grow but for now I can see these roots do grow into the base perlite and need to be handled carefully if you want them to grow more freely or with a standard pot size. As you can see Im not root bound but my plant thinks it is and is growing roots out the top.

One week difference is crazy! The buds are getting dense..some frost sprinkled here and there..and I’m smelling aromas of skunk and quite literally sour skittles..which is my favorite candy…so I was in disbelief when the Runtz was giving off that exact smell! Sweet & Sour mmm!

At the start of the week, there were no flowers and at the end tons of them. Feeding 2 times with 7l of nutrient solution at start and end of the week 1000 ppm cause when I fed few weeks before with 1200-1300 ppm tips showed burning. A very strange thing happened during the last feed when I measured 3000 ppm on runoff and ph was wine at 6.5-6. I am thinking it's probably due to Guerrilla tabs activating in huge amount. Will watch for burning and water with straight water in a few days to check runoff ppm again.

I harvested a week earlier , because I spotted some minor bud rot in lower branches. I don't know why, bud I could not see any sign of bud rot in the bigger buds. I just found them , because I found some twisted sugar leaves, which is in most causes a bullet proof sign. The plant overall seemed to be in a pretty good condition, with minor nitrogen deficiency and some potassium/phosphorus. The last to, I should have added a small amount more, to make the buds a bit more dense, but the current state is ok. Although , it was a complete outdoor grow, pushing bud density would probably have gotten to a more a more bud rot state. This plant is really easy to grow, she almost runs for itself and does need little to no care. I chose a big pot , 25 liters , added 12 liter of light Mix and filled the rest with Coco and perlite. After that, I barely added nutrients and just waited for signs of deficiency, which barely occurred. Aroma: The aroma ist very sweet and some kind of fruity, but not generic , it is outstanding in its own kind of way. You're definitely missing lemon scents, but I think it's more of orange . There are no signs of earthy , peppery or stinky smells. Just pure sweet fruit. Unfortunately it means, I can not smell " cookies". But I thing this also happens to a lot of " cookie" strains and is often exaggerated, if claimed. I hung her up in my whine fridge , 16°C and 60% rlf for the first few days. After that, I turned rlf down to about 52%. She smells exactly like she did outdoors. Her smell does not hit you in the face. But if you smell it, it is really pleasant and calming. The smoking test be added , after I tested it for a few days. Overall in growing this variety, I rate this strain 8/10. I would would give this strain more stars, if I could really smell cherry and cookies. Unfortunately, the cherry smell combines more with the overall fruity smell, which makes it hard to isolate it. I can definitely recommend this strain to beginners, if they seek a user friendly hybrid with a guaranteed nice (bag)-appeal and reliable sweet, but not kushy aroma. A pro grower will definitely hit bigger scales, if grown indoors and preferably in Coco / hydro. I hope you enjoyed my conclusion and take it consideration, when you plan to buy some beans. Happy grow to all of you 🤝🌱

Hi Fellow Growers They are going good. The heat its stressing them. the are not drinking so much water and yellowing a bit.... Not so Nitrogen Green but i thinkthey are doing fine. Maybe some Co2 whould help them. Give me some Ideias how can a use the heat and make it become beneficial Chears BrotherHood

Day 0. New start. Sponsored grow. ALL NUTRITIONS ARE GRAMS TO LITRES !!!! Neutralise is in real measurement only. Soil was mixed two weeks ago !!! That line needs cooling time, have in mind !!! Main sponsor of this grow is Mars Hydro. They sent me new light again, this time i will try out TSL 2000 model. First impression : easy to assemble, but i would create longer screws and put spacers , that way would ventilate better than now its bolted straight to board. MSNL send me 5 strains to try out. Planted two purple strains, so had to cover my mistakes with this one, THC Bomb is my back up plan for good stash ;) Think name speaks A LOT !!! ;))) Day 4. Girl sprouted on forth day, lets GO !!! Day 5. Made a video, all runs smooth, a bit lanky, needed to put lights on on 3rd, not 4th day ;))) saving electricity not always pays off ;) Happy Growing !!!

Probably I should wait another week or two, but I decided to harvest tomorrow. I afraid of possible mold due to high humidity and temperatures... The trichomes become milky and some of them get an amber color.

She grew very slowly I vegged her for a long time. I finally got her big enough where if she doubled in size I would have a nice plant, well she stretched almost none whatsoever. However, for the small size I was expecting about 56g instead I got 98! What a pleasant surprise to see all the lower buds fully developed and ripe!

Here we go again ! Welcome to my grow diary. This time I was gifted with a single seed of Sensi Amnesia Feminized by Sensi Seeds. To celebrate the upcoming legalisation in Germany, I dedicate my diary to all my fellow German pot heads. We almost reached our goal !! 👏 As always, I got started and throw the seed in a cup of water and let it soak for 24 hours. After that, she was directly transplanted in a little pot with BioBizz Light Mix soil. To keep temperature and humidity up, she will spend the first days in a little propagator Update: germination successful ! We mark 11/27/2021 as her day 1 Update 2: the lady gained hight quickly. That’s why I reduced the light distance to 40cm. Temperature at day: 25-27 C Temperature at night: 19 C Humidity kept around 65% Germination week was without problems. No Temperature or humidity issues at all. She got a bit tall in her first days. Keep in touch ! Cheers HighZenBerg

Happy gardening. 07/21/2018 Wow unseasonably cold last night got down to 48° brrrr. No signs that the cold bothered the girls posting photos in a min.. And video. Phew took me awhile to upload. 07/24/2018 Mid week update Back to hot and, steamy summer weather. #1, tops are just about 39.5", going to try to get all super cropped to about 30", I expect that they will be double their size at harvest.👍. On a side note hours of light will soon be at 14.5 hope they initiate flowering,as it will give me almost 3 months of flower!👊 #2 is 43.5" looking like a Christmas tree,still some supercropping to spread out the lower layers. #3, is 35.5" And no training just picking her dead,yellowing leaves #4, is 41.5" also no training #5, is 30" , and still stinkiest 😎 of all gonna take a clone today.

This was another fun week. I did some defoliation to open up all the bud sites. That took a little longer than I was expecting. This is the largest plant I have ever grown, and I'm learning there are some differences in growing a big girl, the first being she takes longer to defoliate. The second is the amount of water she drinks. I'm watering her a full gallon ever other day and she is taking it all.

This beautiful OG strain is such a diamond. I LOVE HER. super strong aroma, very OG, sticky flowers, very dense and compact. What else can I ask for. This strain is such a masterpiece. Definitely looking forward to grow her again. And the best is that she's 100% organic grown without any pks or any shit like that. Just Silicium flash by biotabs which contains a lot of nutrients npk and bug shit and also the soil has been prepared with Florians organic living soil. Which contains different strains of mycorrizae and endomycorryzhae. Also contains fulvic and humic acids it's such a super foof for plants that make them perform to it's full potential without adding any chemicals NPK. I only 💦 and watch the magic happen. A complete and rich in life soil is absolutely key to get a top quality organic cannabis. And here you got the results. Hope you guys enjoy ✌️💚❤️👨‍🌾

Harvest date 08.12.23 - Day 91 from sprout. HI! My "first" proper grow, I raised some seedlings about 10 years ago and planted them on the side of a field and in the woods, I don't really count that, you do yours :) I just want to be transparent. It went better than expected, like a lot! Thanks to Hoocho on Youtube I got into hydroponics and NFT, I love NFT :D check him out! Did some veggies like salad, pak choi, spring onions etc. they got HUGE the pak choi was ~3x the size you see in the stores and tasted delicious, so at this point it was clear to me, when I grow weed it will be NFT even though almost nobody else does it, that made it even more appealing to me because I don't like to do things the way others do it :) I want to find my own way but that doesn't mean I don't take other growers lightly I study their work and pick what works best for me, a little here a little there and here I am now. Another youtuber I like to mention is Basementganja and his VERY well documented grows, and all the people on the Discord! check him out! I still wish I hadn't grown the Orion because it basically stole the Northern Lights some potential and yield. Also next time 2 plants in a 2x4 not 3! wasn't my brightest moment :D NL#1 yielded 1980g with stem and all, 985g after wet trimming. NL#2 yielded 1788g with stem and all, 1004g after wet trimming. I am not to picky with trimming, my buds don't need to look super good, I want them to taste and smell good + a good effect. I am really satisfied with the outcome, who couldn't be? The smell is kind of earthy and pine, a classic normal european weed smell I guess, not in a bad way but nothing to special, sometimes you just want your usual right? I could have lollipoped more to have bigger top kolas but you never stop learning :) I was kind of afraid to cut to much, but I don't mind smaller airy buds, put it trough the grinder and I bet nobody knows 🙀 My light was dimmed to "75%" measured 208W ~44 DLI for the most part of flower, did some 100% once in a while for a couple of hours. Had to defoliate ALOT like really ALOT almost every single day from mid veg up until mid/late flower that's why I rated it hard to grow, the rest went really easy. The fertilizer ratios I used are meant as RATIOS not exact 1ml etc. when it says 1ml A 1ml B it just means 50/50 until stated EC. I mix my dry salts 1kg/4l water to create a stock solution. I really hope the dry weight will be good, might hit the #1 spot for the RQS Auto Northern Light? One can dream huh :D Leave some comments, ask many questions!
