This week consists of July 23, 2022 thru July 29, 2022 - Seeds were planted on May 27th, 2022 and they all sprouted on May 31st, 2022 (~4 days) Continued on schedule of 2 times do feed and then one water with only PH'd water. LIGHTS: I'm running the lights on an 18-6 schedule. I have the dark time scheduled from 11am to 5pm since the lights increase temperature and during that time the outside temperature is at its highest so it seems to be easier to maintain proper temperature ranges with the light off during that period. Swapped out the metal halide bulb to the high pressure sodium on July 6th since the plants have been in flower. WATER: July 23rd: ~1500 ml of 6.1 PH and 1500 PPM. 30 ml/gal of Big Bloom 0 ml/gal of Grow Big 15 ml/gal of Tiger Bloom 0 ml/gal of Cal-Mag July 25th: ~1200 ml of 6.1 PH and oxygenated water July 27th: ~1500 ml of 6.1 PH and 1500 PPM. 30 ml/gal of Big Bloom 0 ml/gal of Grow Big 15 ml/gal of Tiger Bloom 0 ml/gal of Cal-Mag July 29th: ~1500 ml of 6.1 PH and 1500 PPM. 30 ml/gal of Big Bloom 0 ml/gal of Grow Big 15 ml/gal of Tiger Bloom 5 ml/gal of Cal-Mag TEMP/HUMIDITY: A max of 90.0F and a min of 62.8F with an average of 78.8F. VPD was harder to maintain this week since it was in the high 80s and low 90s outside with the average being around 1.59. Whole week numbers> Temp - 78.8F avg - 62.8F min - 90.0F max Humidity - 52.7% avg - 21.0% min - 83% max VPD - 1.59 avg - 0.40 min - 3.20 max CO2: Floating ball is between .5 and 1. This lets a more gradual amount of CO2 to enter the tent and I now get a more stable level of CO2 that fluctuates between around 1000 ppm and 1300 ppm. The regulator is still plugged into the same outlet as the lights so it turns off on the same light/dark schedule. PAR: PPFD between 300-1500. The tops of some plants are getting the 1200-1400 range and some side leaves are getting in the 400-700 range. ISSUES: Nothing new. TECHNIQUES: I implemented some minor defoliation on some of the affected leaves and some leaf tucking.

Pulled the girls down today, on day 58. Drying in 55% RH / 19c-21c - seems to be stable.

Beautifull flowers the smell is incredible

Week 02 Introduction This week has been a bit of a struggle. Had my first experience dealing with slime and brown algae. But I think adding enzymes and increasing the beneficial bacteria helped to fix the issue. Also experienced nutrient burn for the first time. My nutrient solution strength got as high as 671 PPMs. So backed it down to about 430 PPMs during the end-of-week reservoir change. Also cut Hydroguard (expired?), CaliMagic, and Superthrive from this grow. Now she's still stunted, but is starting to recover. Hopefully... [START OF WEEK 02] Day 01 - Monday - 08/10/20 - Total Days: 008 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Still looks a bit yellow. But getting larger! --- Solution strength was at 248 PPMs. --- Just topped off with a bit of distilled water --- PH went up to 6.1 so PH'd down to 5.8 --- Ran the top feed for a bit to wet the hydroton. - [2130]: She's looking even more yellow now. --- Even the new leaves are really yellow. --- Decided to add more base nutes. --- Added 4ml of Sensi A --- Added 4ml of Sensi B --- Now at about --- Solution Strength went up to 304 PPM. --- PH was at 6, --- Also raised the water level a bit more. --- I really hope it's a nutrient deficiency and not an over-watering issue. --- Please live! Day 02 - Tuesday - 08/11/20 - Total Days: 009 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looking less droopy. But still yellow. --- Decided to do a reservoir change. --- 4.5gal of distilled water --- 8ml of Sensi Grow A --- 8ml of Sensi Grow B --- 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- 4ml of B-52 --- 4ml of CaliMagic --- 4ml of Hydroguard --- 4 drops of Superthrive --- PH'd down to 5.8 --- Solution strength: 302 PPM --- Since I didn't want to risk over-watering the rockwool, I did not to do a top feed, may do one tonight after the sleep cycle (lights are still set to go off at 10am and back on at 4pm). --- As I was doing a reservoir change, I noticed that the tubes and bucket were a bit slimy. Didn't really stink or anything. Is this normal? Maybe due to the Hydroguard and Voodoo Juice? --- I hope she gets better soon! - [2215]: Getting larger! But still yellow. --- Also can see a root growing through the net pot! Tiny little thing but it's there! Will have to start dropping water once more appear. --- After looking over a few DWC diaries using AN nutes, seems like my solution strength is still too low. Most around this stage average around 500 PPMs with about 4ml per gallon. --- Top fed for a minute to wet the top of the hydroton. --- Solution strength went down to 263 PPM. --- Added 8ml more of Sensi A --- Added 8ml more of Sensi B --- Now base nutes are at 16ml for 4.5 gal of water. --- PPMs went up to 411. --- Still lower than 500 PPMs, but that's okay. --- PH was at 6. Not sure if I should adjust PH using AN nutes. So going to not ajdust unless PH goes above 6.1. Day 03 - Wednesday - 08/12/20 - Total Days: 010 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: Looks like more root growth! --- She still looks yellow. But leaves are perky. --- PH was at 6.2 so lowered down to 5.8. --- Solution strength was at 394 PPMs --- Since roots are still growing, I decide to lower the water level a bit. Now water level is a bit below the net pot. - [2200]: Root is getting longer! --- Slime is returning. Not sure why. --- Solution strength: 357 PPMs --- PH: 6.1 --- Decided to add an enzyme along with more beneficial bacteria to hopefully cure the slime. --- Added 16ml of Sensizym --- Added 5ml of Hydroguard --- Added 8ml of Voodoo Juice --- New solution strength: 430 PPMs --- New PH: 6.1 --- Top fed for a minute. --- This slimy residue is really freaking me out! I hope the added enzymes will help eliminate the slime. --- Going to do a full reservoir sterilization/nutrient change over the weekend. Please survive until then girl! Day 04 - Thursday - 08/13/20 - Total Days: 011 ----------------------------------- - [0930]: I think the enzymes worked! There is little to no slime now! --- Although I think the root was also dissolved in the process. It's now just a little stub sticking just below the net pot. The enzyme is also suppose to dissolved dead roots too but guess that root was too weak? Not sure what happened there. But I think the slime is cured! --- Solution strength went down to 395 PPMs. Decided to add more base nutrients. --- Added 8ml of Sensi A --- Added 8ml of Sensi B --- Added 4ml of B-52 --- Solution strength went up to 598 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.1 --- As long as the PH is between 5.5 and 6.3, I'm not going to use PH Up or Down. But still will monitor PH levels. - [1715]: Checked up on her after her nap and shes looking alive but stunted. But no slime! --- Decided to add some sugars to help maintain the enzymes and beneficial bacteria. --- Solution strength was at 587 PPMs. --- PH was at 6.2 --- Added 8ml of Bud Candy --- Solution strength went up to 671 PPMs. --- PH also went up to 6.3 --- Lowered water level a bit to hopefully promote more root growth. --- Top fed for a minute. --- She is getting bigger, but still looks yellow. Day 05 - Friday - 08/14/20 - Total Days: 012 ----------------------------------- - [0915]: Leaves look a little burnt on the tips. Still no slime. --- Going to back off on the PPMs to hopefully fix the nutrient toxicity. --- Solution strength was at 632 PPMs --- PH was at 6.3 --- Added/Removed water until PPMs were at 536. --- PH was still at 6.3 --- Raised water up a bit, then top fed for a minute. - [2200]: Looking better. Still yellow though. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 6.5 --- Added PH down. --- New solution strength: 518 PPMs --- New PH: 5.2 --- PH was kind of high. So decided to PH down. Had to use quite a bit to bring it down. But eventually got it to drop down to 5.3. A little low, but so far, the PH has always gone up so wanted to start it really low. --- Ran the top feed for a minute to re-saturate the top of the hydroton. Day 06 - Saturday - 08/15/20 - Total Days: 013 ----------------------------------- - [0830]: She looks stunted. leaves are still yellow. --- Solution strength: 514 PPMs --- PH: 5.6 --- Top fed for a minute. --- Not sure what to do at this point. Going to do another reservoir change soon. Hoping she lives until then. - [2145]: Looking pretty much the same. --- A bit of slime has returned. Since I've been diluting the nutrient solution, the enzyme ratio has dropped. So I guess this is expected. --- Also noticed that slime build up was on the air-stones. Never really checked the stones so not sure how long that has been there. Looks brown too, which can't be good. --- Going to do an H202 sterilization of the system (minus the net pot) tomorrow so did not add anything. --- Lowered the water level to below the net pot. --- Then top fed for a minute. Day 07 - Sunday - 08/16/20 - Total Days: 014 ----------------------------------- - [0900]: STERILIZATION DAY! --- Decided to skip today's night cycle for a deep clean. --- I'm hoping that skipping a night cycle won't be too stressful. --- Temporarily moved her to a new bucket. --- Used about a half of gallon of straight distilled water to flush out the net pot. --- Drained the system and wiped up all the brown sludge. Also removed the air stones and cleaned up all the goo. --- Filled the system with 2 gallons of distilled water and at least 30ml of food grade hydrogen peroxide (35% strength). --- Yea its a lot, but since I'm not going to sterilize the system overnight, I went with a really high doseage. Basically I kept adding until I started to see little bubbles start to form. --- Then I ran the water pump. - [0915]: Boiled the air stones in tap water for about 10 min. Then reconnected them to the airlines. --- I let the air stones and hose soak in the sterilization solution for about 5 minutes so the peroxide can absorb into the stones. Then ran the air stone to help mix and agitate the solution. --- Occasionally, I'd repeat the process of turning the air pump off for a few minutes to let the stones soak. - [1000]: Covered the top two row of holes of the net pot with some aluminum tape. Hopefully this solves the light leaking in through the hydroton. - [1200]: Used an old toothbrush and scrubbed the pump clean. Then drained the system. --- Refilled with more distilled water and peroxide. Again added a lot. --- Ran system again to sterilize even more. - [1530]: Drained the system and refilled with distilled water to rinse. --- Ran the system for a few minutes, then drained and rinsed again. --- Did this a few more times over about an hour. - [1630]: Added 4 gallons of fresh distilled water. --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow A --- Added 15ml Sensi Grow B --- Added 12ml of B-52 --- Added 16ml of Voodoo Juice --- Added 16ml Sensizym --- Solution strength was at 430 PPMs --- PH was at 5.6 --- I was going to add Hydroguard, but I think the bottle is expired. Since 2017 or 2018!? I think Hydroguard is good for up to 2 years from the date on the bottle or 6 months after opening. So not going to use from now on. I wonder if this could have contributed to the slime build up. --- Also removed the CaliMagic and Superthrive too. Going to only use AN products to eliminate the chance of incompatible nutrients. --- Placed her back in the bucket and top fed for a minute. --- Here's hoping for the best. Going to let it ride until morning! Please feel better! [END OF WEEK 02]

Into their second week of flowering and holy hell. The dark devil is going crazy !!! I can't believe at how fast it's flowering. The buds seem to double in size daily. I am going to boost the feeding to every other watering. Instead of the every third day feeding them. The dark devil i mainlined seems to be on the exact same schedule as the control plant her flowering period happened pretty quickly idk if i would mainline again.

They took a long time to grow and mature 10 months in all. They produced amazing flowers with a genuine high. Left a lot to be desired in flavour profile however not awful to smoke. Would grow again for sure as they were a high yielding, ‘set and forget’ type of strain easy and resilient enough to grow and highly impressive to see grown outdoor.

And here we are... I washed my tent, I don't have time or money to have a new one, but I will change my extractor, too noisy. So I will put tonight my seeds in a glass of water then substrat. A wounderfull mix of 70 % coco 20% perlite and 20% clay pebbles mixed bymyself. 😍😍😍😍 Everything is in the video ☺️♥️☺️ Oh, and I really love my new pots ♥️ 👉👉👉Setup : 👉smartpot style 11L pots : NEW - Will love them I think. 3 off them ;D (and more hidden) Feeling about it ♥️♥️♥️ 👉Coco : 22L about + 6L perlite + 6L Clay pebbles = 7L coco + 2L perlite +2L Clay pebbles per pot buffered with 6.0 p.h water + citrus and 2ml/l. of calmag. I will let them in the mixture for this night (06.10.2021) Feeling about it ♥️♥️♥️ 👉Fan : Ø15cm 5w GardenHighPro Clipfan (Not super good...)Feeling about it :👿 👉Extractor : Pro Fan TT 125 from Garden HIGHPRO (Make noise but...)Feeling about it :👿👿 👉Carbon filter : ProActiv 250m3/H Ø 125mm. Garden Highpro (Not sure working properly)Feeling about it :👿 👉 Tent : Pro Basic Garden HIGHPRO 👿👿👿 I have light leaks at the zipper seam Feeling about it : 👿👿👿+👿👿👿 But will use it for this grow until i can change... 😐 👉 Mars SP 150 Mary Hydro : I love this light, and i had funny stickers with it. It seems definitly efficient and I am asking myself if they saved my dwarves. Probably. Feeling about it : 😍😍😍 Warming up at germ... Everything went too fast, I didn't expect to launch so early the second run, BUT HEY; QUICK QUICK QUICK ONE everything will be speedy right... 👉 6th of october 2021 / DAY 0 👉 Seeds in a lens cup full of water for 9 hours about... 23h00 👉 7th of october 2021 / DAY 1 👉 Seeds transfered in towel paper ... 10h00 👉 8th of october 2021 / DAY 2 👉 11h00 : i can see something white on seeds, In the hope it will work and start. Last time with dwarves I had super long root who where stuck in the paper, idea is to prevent it by simply check more often. Why the paper towel ? Bcse I want to see if seeds are alive. 16h00 : 2 seeds sprouted, I took the decision to transfer them into their futur nest for a long time, 3 of them. They have name now : QuickPink QuickBlue QuickGreen : the seed at the right side is inside Quickblue, Middle : QuickGreen And the for now not sprouted seed is in QuickPink (I love the name, I really hope she will sprouted. ♥️ 😄😁I love smartpots, I can use safety pins on them ♥️ First feed : Calmag (i messed up, only 1 ml per 3 litters, will do better tomorrow) 1ml + Alg-amic 1ml/3L. + Bio-Heaven 1ml/3L. Bio-Grow 1ml/3L. : 23.5° 3L /// p.h. 6.2 EC 0.7 And yeah, I created super fast fake dome to keep R.h. Up, I never did this so when i will se anyhting green I will take them out. And I have a doubt where I planted them so yeah... Like a dwarf with a pickaxe not paying much attention to details... Right ? 👻 👉 9th of october 2021 / DAY 3 👉 00h00 1L. Extra feed for the 3 quick 👽Calmag 1.2ml/1L + 👽 Alg-amic 0.3ml/1L. +👽 Bio-Heaven 0.3ml/1L. 👽Bio-Grow 0.3ml/1L 22.5° 1L /// p.h. 6.0 EC 0.7 16h00 👽Calmag 1.2ml/1L + 👽 Alg-amic 0.3ml/1L. +👽 Bio-Heaven 0.3ml/1L. 👽Bio-Grow 0.3ml/1L 22.5° 1L /// p.h. 6.0 EC 0.6 /// 500 ml run-off p.h. 6.9 EC 1.2 : run-off seems too high, I hope it will stabilize with time but run-off touch wood from plant roller made of fresh wood... No sign of them 😰 👉 10th of october 2021 / DAY 4 👉 18h00 : I scrached top of my coco (OH MY GOD COCO IS SO GENTLE, SO NICE SO CLEAN SO PERFECT To find my seeds... 💩 AND GREAT NEWS ! 👋Quickblue seems to be the first, I scratched angain, found QuickGreen AND BEST PART; QuickPink IS ALIVE 3/3 !!! TOmorrow will be the day, they will rize and I will open the veg phase. ♥️ 18h00 : 👽Calmag 1.2ml/1L + 👽 Bio-Heaven 0.3ml/1L. 👽Bio-Grow 0.3ml/1L : EC:0.6 I FORGOT TO MESURE AND REDUCE THE PH 😤😰😰😭 first time it happen, waiting to have Quickgreen and Quickpink up to change week. 👉 11th of october 2021 / DAY 5 👉 17h00 : 👽Calmag 0.7ml/1L5 + 👽 Acti-Vera 0.8ml/1L5. 👽Bio-Grow 0.3ml/1L5 : EC:0.6 👽Terra Aquatica Root booster (GHE) 5.0 ml/1L5 p.h. 6.2 EC : 06 👉👉👉 Feedback : I bought today a new nutrient : Terra aquatica root booster... I checked the E.C. EACH TIME i've added a nutrient into water. 👏 First step : Terra aquatica : 2ml : E.C:0.3 (my tap water EC) then + 3ml : E.C. : 0.3 : not affected EC 👏 step 2) Calmag : I reduced the ammount of Calmag : 0.8 ml : E.C. : 0.4 (perfect shot, i noticed that the calmag don't increase too much the E.C.) 👏 step 3) Acti-Vera 0.8ml ---> E.C. : 0.4 So... THis is exaclty what i aimed to start smoothly before increasing e.c... but you will see .... 👏 step 4) Bio-grow : really litteraly 0.3, no extra drops, really well mesured : E.C. 0.8 : Chock. Added 300ml of water : 0.7, an extra 200ml of water : 0.6. I am ok with that for now (and I forgot the bio-heaven but hey, roots first ;D) 👻👻👻 Why not bying biobizz root booster ??? 👻👻👻 😎👉 Because they are minerals, and not organic, mostly iron, zinc, bronz,... I asked to check T.A. nutrients, organic ! Bingo ! Enzymes ! Humic acid ! All the good stuf... So yeah, I betrayed biobizz... Other problem : T.A. propose less bottles, organic and bio products... Well, I may switch to T.A. nutrients or advenced nutrients, don't know yet but I have a good feeling about T.A., their system are used by NAZA, they are good in hydroponics systems... And I love my coco. 😎👉 Indeed, I am not using products specific for cocos but I know what I will neeed to fight : iron. 😎👉 Spoil alert : won't add any pictures for 2-3 days, making an experiment before starting week 1 veg. (only today's pictures...) They are ALIVE 😎👉 R.H. was around 71 % to 80%, now droped a bit, light is on for hours (you will understand why later....) droped after opening windows for fresh air : Temp 23.2° // 51 %

Was worried about bud size not increasing because of all the trimming all advice welcome.

The second tallest one of the bunch. I'm excited to watch how a strain rich in CBD grows in comparison to THC rich strains. I topped and defoliated every plant. I'm trying to form them into canna-bushes. Hopefully I'm doing the correct training procedures to make them all grow that way both indoors and out.

What a week !!! This was an absolute pleasure to grow , I don't deal with alot of sativa dominant grows, so having something get this much height on one week was pretty cool to see !! This one is about 6 days from going into flower, she REALLY liked to be plucked !!! Not very often do plants take so well from losing their large fan leaves like this one did !!

Lo mismo que Haribo, tuve retrasos en el crecimiento ,carencias de nitrógeno, la humedad estaba relativamente alta las primeras semanas de floración … un desastre y aun así la calidad de las flores no defrauda. Lastima lo del Foco a ver si conseguimos solucionarlo ya, porque así la producción es mínima.

Week 12 (17-4 to 23-4) 17-4 Temperature: 23.1 degrees (lights on) 19,1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 62% (highest) 50% (lowest) 18-4 Temperature: 22.5 degrees (lights on) 17.9 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 19-4 Temperature: 22.5 degrees (lights on) 18.4 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 20-4 Temperature: 24.1 degrees (lights on) 19.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 54% (lowest) Light increased from 50% to 60% strength. I also made a new 10L feed, and added it to the reservoir, there was still 2850 ml in the reservoir, so i can calculate how much they get per watering. Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 21-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 19.3 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 66% (highest) 54% (lowest) No pictures. 22-4 Temperature: 23.7 degrees (lights on) 19.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 67% (highest) 42% (lowest) Opened the reservoir for a couple of minutes. 23-4 Temperature: 23.6 degrees (lights on) 17.7 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 50% (lowest)

Some pistols are now turning orange, pinks/purples visible in some buds. 3 different looking phenos out of the 5 plug seedbank seeds - The one in the 1 gal fabric pot is starting to show a lot of fall colourings with red being the primary tone. - 2 are showing with very white pistels and whiter trichomes - some purples coming through on the new bud growth - 2 have yellower pistels and a greener overall look (Maybe showing more of the Zkittlez pheno) The bag seed (Knightsbridge Og X ?) looks way more mature into flower yet the buds are considerably smaller than the Dosidos Zkittlez plants. I've had one final defoliation to improve light to lower bud sites.
