Deluxe sugar cane was amazing to grow from beginning to end. It’s an easy plant that recovers well. The smell gets strong after 2 weeks of cure. One of the best grows I’ve ever done.

SATURDAY: Today I mixed up 5g of nutes for my bloomers and douched them. I'll let them dry completely for 2-3 days, then flush them a bit with a little boomerang and calmag. I ordered a Gorilla lite-Line High CFM kit last week and received it today...fits my tent poles perfectly. This really works to keep the tent walls from collapsing in too far, and I was able to use one pole to rig a shelf to put the fan. That freed up a good bit more floor space. Yesterday, I ordered a 4 x 4 Vivosun tent and inline fan, and a 1500w (5 x 300w COBs)..this tent will be for vegging autos to put into the flowering tent as others are harvested, as well as a place to veg photos that I encounter before they are moved outdoors. I'll probably end up ordering another of the same lights, but for now I have a few supplemental lights I can use...blues and daylights. I'll drop a few WW's or CC's as soon as that stuff arrives so they are big enough to occupy flowering tent space in a few weeks. SUNDAY: I spun everybody around and misted with spring water a couple times throughout the day and formulated my plan for ventilation of the new tent which should be here Tuesday. I plan to hook the exhaust from my 4' x 5' tent as fresh air intake in the top of my 4' x 4'. By doing so, all that good CO2 that is exhausted from the flowering tent will rain down over the veg tent inhabitants before being exhausted from the bottom of the tent. I don't think heat will be a problem in the new tent with so much less light, so I'm optimistic that it will work just fine. I may even route the exhausted veg tent air back into the bottom of the flower tent, giving the girls another shot at the CO2 enriched air....we'll see... MONDAY: Got the room ready for the new tent which will arrive tomorrow, misted, rearranged, and whispered sweet nothings to all the girls. Tried out my new macro lens...need practice.. TUESDAY: Mixed up 7.5 gallons of nutes for the bloomers...ceased open sesame and began beastie bloomz. Assembled my new 4' x 4' Vivosun tent and set up its ventilation and lights. I implemented my idea of exhausting the semi-cool/CO2-rich air from my flowering tent into the top of the veg tent. Only needed 5' of flex duct, so it's got great airflow..no need for another intake fan...yay! Tomorrow I'll get the 6" x 6" x 6" 'Y' duct and connect my 6" booster fan to it. The booster fan will still be sticking into the flower tent, drawing 70 degree a/c air into the tent via direct flex duct connection, but will now be mixed with the exhausted air from the veg tent. I'm probably gonna keep the ventilation in both tents running once I've got a fully closed-loop system. The only reason I was shutting down the ventilation was so that CO2 would build up for 4 hours, but even if it gets exhausted from the flower tent, whatever the veg tent inhabitants don't consume will find it's way back to the flower tent in under a minute...and so on, and so on.. I spent a while putting together a lighting schedule that will allow me to decrease temperatures while still keeping optimal color spectrums and maintaining good light intensity. Had to empty the tent so I could get to everything...what a pain! --------------------------------------------------- FLOWERING TENT Timer #1 --- exhaust, intake (digital timer) on - 6:15am off - 2:15am Timer #2 -- primary blurple light (manual timer) on - 6:30am off - 10:30am on - 11:30am off - 3:30pm on - 4:30pm off - 6:00pm on - 6:30pm off - 8:30pm on - 9:30pm off - 2:00am Timer #3 -- all 4 daylight cobs (manual timer + power strip) on - 6:00am off - 12:00pm on - 12:30pm off - 6:00pm on - 6:30pm off - 2:00am Timer #4 -- all 4 overhead reds, sub-canopy tubes, side strip lights (manual timer + power strip) on - 1:00am off - 6:30am on - 10:30am off - 11:30am on - 3:30pm off - 4:30pm on - 8:30pm off - 9:30pm Timer #5 -- all 4 miracle LED (flowering) in corners, corner, daylight supplemental (manual timer + power strip) on - 6:00am off - 10:30am on - 11:30am off - 3:30pm on - 4:30pm off - 8:30pm on - 9:30pm off - 2:00am ---------------------------------------------- VEGETATIVE TENT Timer #1 --- primary light and exhaust (manual timer + 3-way splitter) on - 6:00am off - 2:00am Timer #2 --- blue supplementals (manual timer + power strip) on - 2:00am off - 6:00am on - 10:00am off - 2:00pm on - 4:00pm off - 8:00pm Watching temps closely.... ------------------------------------------ WEDNESDAY: My new lighting schedule seems to be working..high was 87 today, and it dropped into the upper 70's last night...schweet! I'm pretty confident that when I get my ducting in on Friday and have the closed-loop ventilation for the two tents completed, that it will drop the temp even further and I'll not be wasting so much precious CO2...and then I can ADD MORE LIGHTS and begin with renewed heat mitigation efforts!!! I'm really wanting to pump up the deep reds and maybe far reds during their 4-hour "nighttime" ...maybe more low-wattage sub-canopy tube lights, too. I guess that the girls really loved the Beastie Bloomz...much fattening happening... It was so nice being able to move Kushpialidocious into the new veg tent...more space, better canopy penetration. THURSDAY: Spun everybody around and misted with spring water..soil still moist. Temps held pretty much...86-87 all day..i changed the overhead light timer a bit so it kicks on a half hour earlier and as a result temp climbed to 89-90 for about 15 minutes, but quickly dropped to 85 when the 4 COBs turned off... when the big blurple and 4 miracle leds in the corners ( + the extra 40w daylight supplemental in my darkest corner) turned off 15 minutes later, it quickly dropped to 79.....15 minutes later...74...15 minutes later...72!!! "By Jove, I think he's got it!" I might actually be able to harvest these fuckers with all terpenes intact.👍 On second thought.😎..I'm gonna dial back the reds a half hour again (and maybe the 4 COBs), because I'm going to try switching out the 40w Sansi bulb for my extra 100w Bridgelux/Epistar 3500k COB light. (MORE POWER!) I really don't think it gets very much, if any, hotter than the Sansi 40w. I'm really hoping to keep it below 90 at all times and as close to 70 as possible at night (red zone).. new temperature test will be tomorrow. It will also be the first run with the closed-loop ventilation system in place...all ventilation will remain on at all times in both tents, and based on my rudimentary calculations, my 2 x 6" inline fans and the 6" duct booster can move enough air to circulate through both tents about 240 times per hour. I figured that like this: The 3 fans move 1,010 cfm. The two grow spaces total 252 cu ft (4 x 5 and 4 x 4) There is just over 12 feet of ducting involved in the loop, which is about 6 additional cubic feet. Correct me if I'm wrong...I'm not an HVAC guy.. The A/C kicks on, on average, every 12 minutes, so there will be a regular supply of cool fresh air injected into the mix as well. My hopes are high! (and so am I) One other interesting thing is that the addition of the 4-5 gallons of frozen water in jugs makes the substrate temp stay in the lower 70's all day long..I'm hoping the roots at least get the signal that "Winter is coming." FRIDAY: Well, shit. My closed-loop ventilation system didn't work quite right...evidently, I should have studied up on calculus. Rather than the negative pressure in both tents that I expected, both tents swole up like they were snakebit..(positive pressure?)..and temperatures in both tents started to rise...no pinche bueno. I'm sure it's my math that's off..., for example, I didn't account for the fact that the flowering tent has a carbon filter which decreases the cfm's considerably, and the intermittent flow of central air is a variable that I am also uncertain how to factor. So....I scrapped the idea until I can achieve truly equivalent intake and exhaust in both tents. HOWEVER...I did discover a trick that I will dub a "heat siphon," which is a definite improvement, but only in the veg tent. When I disconnected the flex duct from the 6" inline fan(exhaust) in the veg tent, I had intended to stub it off for now. I noticed that there was considerable "back-flow" caused by the duct booster intake fan in the flowering tent. So, the duct booster draws air from the a/c register, AND from duct which I've placed in the veg tent immediately above the light. I moved the 6" inline fan in the veg tent to to top of the tent and connected a 3' piece of duct to it that is also placed immediately above the one side of the light, so heat from the veg light is ejected into the room and partially drawn into the flower tent where it is mixed with cool a/c air, carbon scrubbed, and sent to the veg tent raining the unused CO2 down over them at about 85 degrees, which is considerably cooler than the normal tent temp. It's still not perfect.. Because the flowering tent is absorbing some of the heat drawn of the veg tent light, I'm up 3-4 degrees on average in the flowering tent, which is not what I was hoping for at all...it's now hitting 92 degrees in the flowering tent at some points during the day, and hovering at 79-80 at night, so I'm gonna have to revise the lighting schedule again..

Going to stop giving her nutes. I think she’ll be ready in 2 weeks. She’s been an easy grow. Her smell, colors and bud density are wonder

*********Week 6 - January 13 to 19, 2020 (Days 36 to 42 from germination) This is going to be a brief update but that’s a good thing 😀 The week went by pretty quick and overall it was great progress. She stood up more and her bud sites set in and are starting to stack.👍 Her colour holding nice and her leaves are still pretty wide work up. Have done some further cleaning on the bottom and removed a couple of leaves that were blocking. Took off a couple of low nodes as well. Introduced Massive this week for bud density. She has a very thick main stem. It bends right away but a “quarter” roughly in diameter. Should help hold all that bud😎👍 Keeping wet and happy is a balance. She was good with 2L last week and by the end of the week now she wants 3L and approaching 1 gal a day. Note for week 2......also noted by breeder.😱🙏 Following the breeder notes I also bumped up the CalMag on one of the feedings a bit to help ensure she doesn’t show issues. Don’t want to use CalMag much longer though because she already gets lots of nitrogen. Not sure how much longer to feed......will go another full week for sure. If she runs a full 9 weeks then if allowing a 2 week flush you only go through week 7....that next week! Therefore, even if I push it I will likely only go another week and a half of feeding😟😓😕 Crap time goes fast!!!!!! Gonna have to ensure she is wet and happy👌 Little more detail: Jan 13/20 - Day 36 - 1L feeding of Sensyzime, Piranha, Voodoo Juice @ 2ml/L. Not pH’d......water been running 6.3. this was in the AM - PM feeding 2L only Dual Fuel @ 1ml/L, Liquid Weight and Rezin @ 1.5ml/L = 575ppm pH 5.8. - trying out the Green Planet line so I introduced Massive this week. - lowered temps in room at night. Down to 65 degrees. - notice couple of brown spots here and there about 3. Noted for now as raising the pH already for flower. Jan 14/20 - Day 37 - Hit her harder today with full strength feed. 5.95pH - Pots were light so 3L feed. - Rhino Skin back in for some more silica. - Didn’t go......holly crap she got big last night😮😮.....but she is filling in her width. Jan 15/20 - Day 38 - 2L feed today. Only giving base nutrients and Sensyzime @ 1ml/L pH 6.1. - drinking more now and she doesn’t give run-off before 2L minimum. - keep an eye on the ppm not getting too high and consider increasing her moisture. Jan 16/20 - Day 39 - 3L full feed today. - want to strip a bunch of her leaves!!!! Keep tucking the leaves but even those stems are stubborn.....good problems👍😝 Jan 17/20 - Day 40 - She is hungry :) - 3L feed full strength. - runoff water: 1100ppm, 5.9pH........medium in good shape:) - Good growth last night....liked the nutes👊 - In the tent with only Green Poison is giving a little extra room and she is loving it. Jan 18/20 - Day 41 - She was not dry in the AM but rather inbetween. - watering with supplementals.......Sensyzime, Rezin, Liquid Weight, VeloKelp, Piranha, Voodoo....and CalMag. - 2L with 240ppm and 6.2pH - nothing in PM.....pots still wet......she is looking for 3L per day still roughly. - They are growing taller......top of tallest nodes falling to sleep sooner at night. - replaced CO2 in tent. - Very happy today and good growth with leave up. - 23” tall and 27” wide......with LST. Jan 19/20 - Day 42 - 3L feeding again today. Full strength again. - runoff: 1125ppm and 6.0pH. - stripped two lower nodes and 1 huge fan leaf. - her buds are getting wider and taller....filling in😎 - she is happy....keep the same and don’t change things......less than two weeks feed left. Have a great week fellow growers.......

Cette semaine été décisifs, les pompons se développe bien et givré. La suite au prochain épisode growers.

June 29: watered with compost tea. Bacteria in these teas seem to help hold the water and I don’t need to water this too often or too much. Did a foliar spray of potassium silicate and soluble seaweed extract. Fast growth phase happening now. June 30: forecast for next week is hot and the week after is a bit hotter. Having made it through the cold spring, the plants should get a lot bigger over the next couple weeks. July 1: nice fast growth now 👍👍 July 4: did foliar spray of Extreme Blend in the morning. July 5: she’s doing great with strong vegetative growth. After the last round of topping the fan leaves got quite a bit bigger and the growth tips have been a bit slower to start growing than on my other photoperiod. Looking nice and green and growing fast. Waiting a few more days before starting another scrog layer. She has grown 7 inches this week. I love the “inch a day” stage. 👍 #seedsman420growoff #seedsmanseeds

Esta fue su última semana con nutrientes, no engordo mucho, creo que mi error fue excederme con los nutrientes a lo largo de su ciclo, yo aproximo que me dará unos 50 gramos masomenos, no es mucho pero es trabajo honesto jaja 😆 la próxima semana será de puro flush ya para darle corte

3. Tag der 8. BW.. nächstes Update wird zur Ernte sein !!

Day 36 1/13/25 I think she is taking to the location okay so far and after the first cut I did I’m not sure what I’m doing I’m just doing my own little mainline thing experimenting I guess I’m using APSU super soil and a little bit of build of soil 3.0 left from last grow and it’s a 7 gal pot als 1/14 day 37 Did second and final topping going allow about two weeks to bounce back and allow more growth and LST then flower

Day 58 The colours of autum are so beautiful. 1 week left to haverst.

No last just pulling some leaves it’s a nice plant it grows very firm and strong. No lst even needed

Hoy termina la fase de crecimiento ,las tres variedades han crecido bastante bien destacando gorilla girl ya que son algo más grandes y más altas,se les realizó una segunda poda FIM y se pusieron los tutores .algunas puntas de hojas nuevas cogieron un leve color amarillo espero que se recuperen completamente y comiencen la floración al máximo,estoy pensando en incorporar un panel led para florecer junto con lec,que opinan lo incorporamos?saludos y dulces humos

Week 15 days 99-105 . I'm am flushing all plants with 1 gallon of filtered water each. I've reduced the light cycle from 18 to 14 hours to reduce heat stress. It may reduce yield as well based on comments I've read in other growers diaries. An oz per plant would be nice. Of course more would be better but an oz makes a pound of cannabutter. Reducing the light hours is reducing the purpleness in the stems of og kush and gorilla glue but Purple chill still has purple stems The Natrona sisters spend their nights in the garage where the temps are 10-15 degrees cooler than in the day temps in the tent. Night temps ranged this week between 63-66 with rh 51-76%. The high rhythm comes after a rain. During the day, I'm keeping the tent open while circulating 2 fans. Day Temps can reach 80 so it gets hot in there. flooded each plant with 1 gal of water. From here forward I will be flushing all plants with filtered water at 1 gal for each plant every other day. Monday, flushed with 1 gal of water. Starting this flush, I added ice to the top of the soil before watering. See photo. This is a stress technique used to force plant phenotype colors. I don't think it will work for mine as I over fed. While I have 3 different strains, they look the same with blue green dominance. Thursday, flushed with 1 gal of water. Starting this flush, I added ice to the top of the soil before watering. See photo Saturday, flushed with 1 gal of water. Starting this flush, I added ice to the top of the soil before watering. See photo Sunday photos I'm not seeing any change in leaf or bud colorations from flushing out the fertilizers nor from the ice treatment. General comments" After putting the plants in the garage during the night, morning soil temperatures are within a degree of the night air temperature. This has been about 15 degrees cooler (50s) than the tent temperatures (75+). This week our weather has been unseasonably warm so the night temperatures have been 63-71 with Rh 51-70% Tent temps in the day 75-80 and RH 47-59%. Special thanks to @DreamIT for showing me how to add music to video. Check out my Gigi video above for a short clip.

Harvested Shiva Skunk, Zombie Kush and Sweet Love.

Started this week off strong. Decided to switch out the extra Grow Big for extra Tiger Bloom since it’s a lower concentration on N and higher P. New growth is a good color and no tip burning. Raised the lights and turned them up to 100% for the rest of flower. Sour Kush is starting to stink up the tent! NCH is looking like she wants to finish soon, but buds haven’t fattened up and trichomes are still a mixture of clear/milky. Feed pH 6.2, EC 1.8. Water pH 6.3, EC 0.8.

Good morning I germinated my seeds for 24 hours in water and then in an airtight paper towel bag. 48 hours everything has germinated 8/8. thank you for taking a look at my profile, kisses see you soon

If you are going to try this beauty for 2 weeks dont give her 0 nut because you are gonna have 100% nut burn,dont even use root juice or whatever nut you have for early stage but just water,she dont need anything special to grow bigger and bigger just good conditions and right food and you will se the magic to happen,give her more space than i gave because in my situation the roots got on the top and she needed more space BUT she didn't disappoint me😍
