Beginning week 9 Plans this week: Make a long time lapse while away this weekend - post more photos too Lollipop Tuck and tie a bit Possibly build a second scrog level?? Thoughts anyone?? Research and purchase or build a “grow room controller” - tent: temp, rh, light(?), co2(?) — rez: ph, ec, temp, water level - maybe more stuff like tie in the cameras, also basement temp and rh, fan and lights and pump contro. Nutrient dosing and ph control would be awesome but likely too pricey— but I’m a geek and this will be fun! I’d prefer a prebuilt system but I’m not totally opposed to building an Arduino/pi style solution (reliability and time to get it right are concerns tho - plus I have an arcade cabinet project I’d like to get to soon) — **ANY THOUGHTS OR ADVICE ANYONE??? To do list: I picked up some angle aluminum and I plan to finally make a single frame for the numerous LED lights Mount things to the wall (temp and humidity sensors, timers, utility light, etc) General cleanup and house keeping - wire management etc Install new portable air conditioner in the basement - this will be a bit of a project - casement windows and other issues Hopefully this week: install a utility sink in the basement and tie into the water lines and waste lines of the house (no more carrying water and waste upstairs!!)

Buds are starting to fatten up great. The smell is wonderful and they are now in the final stretch. Water only no feed until harvest from here on. I stopped defoliation as I feel they did not take too well to defoliation, and took roughly 3days to recover fully. PPFD is at 1200 yes i love pushing this into the higher range duringbflower, but only if the plants can handle it. The frost is starting to cover the buds and rhey are rock hard!! Excuse my photos, I have full spectrum LED so light spectrum can't be changed for better photos. Lower foliage is starting to die off and I expect this to now continue throughout the larger part of the plant with plain watering. All in all getting excited.

Time for drying. Btw drying them like this was a bad idea buds are pressed from one side may be conceded to move them, well I still prefer hanging drying 🤪

Having cal mag issues going to hit the grow store tomorrow am and see can I get some organic cal mag and see if that helps other than that no real issues 2/24 I’m going sit my dumb ass down and chill I did a defoliation and man I over did it I think it’s pretty aggressive and i don’t know what I was thinking I was just clipping away 🤦🏾‍♂️…… anyway got some calmag for the color issues only going 1/2 tsp see how that goes hopefully when the new growth and more stretch happens it’ll look a lot better I’m also bottom feeding the calmag hope that works too

Day 64. Watering with fertilizers. Day 65. Watering with clean water. Day 66. Watering with fertilizers. Day 67. Watering with clean water. Day 68. Watering with fertilizers. Day 69. Watering with clean water. Distinct sweet smell. Day 70. Watering with fertilizers.

Week 4 Topped plus applied some LST training Seems like Pheno 1 has better structure and growing alot faster Pheno 2 started to slow slight fade on the lower leaves But lets push her through!

Week five of flowering now she’s starting to really have a smell now the buds are really getting nice and sticky covered in trichomes.gonna start reducing feed next week gradually .had a small accident this week broke one of her stems but she’ll be fine.

1 semana en sustrato .. Al fin !! ya está tomando forma ... Nació con sus cotiledones duros y cerrados .. no hubo manera de ayudarla , lo único que traté de hacer fue de a poco "abrir" los cotiledones ... Hoy se ve preciosa , pero claramente tendremos algunas dificultades de crecimiento... La #pineapplekush tiene buenísimas condiciones climáticas , ella vive con 25°C ambientales , 20°C en sustrato / 66% de humedad , al igual que su hermanas de cuarto de cultivo ( gorila glue 4 / american pie auto / orange sherbet auto ... Vamos , todo mis procesos están realizados minuciosamente y con amor. Aplicando todo cocimiento recopilatorio ... Se alimentan con enraizante #deltaUno 0.6ml x 1L de agua con 20°C y EC 0.3 / pH 6.3 Vamos con todo!!! Miércoles 6 de octubre 2021 / 11:51

2 more weeks?? Maybe 3?

Nice growth and bud developtment. Hps still doing its thing while im sitting back and relaxing. Got to keep an hawk eye on watering. I feed full strenght going over to full canna so they were transplanted into soil. Clones doing good but the Lemon skunk clone dont feel to good. Lets see what the week will bring.

I sure need to get used to the Auto way of growing. My methods and system with soil for regulars are not directly portable to cultivating auto's, so it seems. So what started out as a comparison/battle, is now just a normal grow, since it's not fair that the battlefield was tainted. It does seem the XL Runtz adjust better to my climate and growing style than the Forbidden Runtz. Also looking for ways to keep my tent cooler. Considering growing outdoor this summer with seeds started in the tent. It gets way too hot in here as it is now, with outside temps just at 10 to 15 degrees C. I'm just watering, alternating with a bit of BAC Bloom and Calmag, and some Topmax. From here I hope its some smoother sailing and hoping the other three will pick up some pace. Thanks for checking in again!! Bud

The plants are all really taking off nice bud growth and very healthy looking canopy. Plants are going through water every 3 days on the dot now. I have noticed that one plants buds are showing some purple hues but the others remain colorless so far. The Smell is really nice already. Very fruity it reminds me of fruit loops. My light is on full blast and the plants are praying nicely. There have been no signs of stress from the flip. I will likely defoliate a bit at the end of the week to make sure everything can get as much light as possible.

So all the ladies are being flushed now, so just waiting for harvest day to come now, gonna make sure I give you guys a nice accurate review on the ladies 👍🏾

As we mark the culmination of week 4, we stand on the brink of a significant transition for our plants. This period, characterized by attentive care and meticulous cultivation, has seen our plants flourish in their vegetative stage. They have developed robust root systems and lush green foliage, which are evidence of their vitality and resilience. But in the world of plant growth, time is always of the essence. It is imperative to recognize when to shift gears and usher in the next phase. With that realization, we are poised to send these plants into their flowering stage in just a few days. The preparations for this pivotal moment have been both detailed and extensive. Understanding the significance of this transition, we have preemptively amended the soil. Soil amendment is a cornerstone of ensuring that our plants have access to all the essential nutrients they require during the flowering stage. This period demands a different nutrient profile, with an emphasis on phosphorus and potassium, which are vital for bud development and overall flower health. Our amendments ensure that the plants won't be lacking in any crucial elements, thus setting the stage for optimal flower production. Beyond the soil, the atmosphere in which our plants reside is equally critical. It plays a central role in determining how efficiently the plants can carry out their metabolic processes, particularly photosynthesis. Therefore, we've made the necessary adjustments to create an environment primed for 'blastoff'. By meticulously controlling factors such as temperature, humidity, and light duration, we've fostered a setting that is conducive to the onset and thriving of the flowering stage. In essence, every decision made has been in pursuit of one objective: to offer these plants the best possible conditions to blossom into their full potential. As we look forward to the weeks ahead, we anticipate a rewarding flowering phase, a testament to our diligence and the intrinsic vigor of the plants themselves.

These plants are doing well. The Ph is going down to a more normal level. They also got LST on the main branches. The only thing I see that is odd is that the leaves are a little yellow. I'll keep a close eye on them, in the next week.

Glookies turned out surprisingly well! It yielded the least amount, at only 50g, but it was by far the most resin-coated plant in the tent. I would highly recommend this strain to beginners. It handled a lot of abuse throughout it's life cycle: multiple deficiencies, nitrogen toxicity, tip burn, etc. and still turned out beautiful and effective. The nuggets turned out nice and dense after drying/curing as well. I'm highly interested in coming back to this strain again in the future. What a great introduction to Barney's Farm.
