Growing like a weed. Light burn mid veg, due to ph meter broken. Quickly recovered after flush. No issues since. Day 14, lowering nitrogen tomorrow. Slowly raising her ph a wee bit, she doesn’t seem to mind. 7 out of 8 seem to be on the same pace, one is a little slower. All plants, aside from color, look the same genetically. Rare to have a bag of seeds with the exact same plants. Good job Grower’s Choice. Still no pollen sacs on sprayed branches.

Day 16: These ladies are now nearly.at the end of their stretch I think. They are all forming decent looking flowers now and have sent a few mains skyward to mark their territory Wedding cake is an impressive girl . She is full of mains to develop and also has a lot of secondaries below decks on each of her main 4-way branches. She has trained out fairly well and is holding her shape well. Flowers are looking as they should and plentiful too. Her stems are nice and strong for the upcoming beast she will become. Ghost O.g is still an odd looking girl but is fighting for some good mains to be in the running now. she hasnt stretched too much in general but her lowers have certainly entered the race. She is a very chunky classy too. GG#4 has begun to get over my drowning of her roots with too high water levels in the tank. She hasnt held back too much really as she is the tallest of her group. In typical Gorilla strain style she still has skinny limbs but a few good heads forming flowers too now. Overall , things are doing ok and my error has given them a hurdle to overcome . Have fun being with your loved ones Growmies , catch you all next week

Greetings Grow Diaries! - BubbleSnake finally arrived! Have been searching months for this thing and I finally found a Canadian distributor. Very happy with this purchase. Say goodbye to Airstones! - 24hr Aerated Compost Tea with EWC, Kelp, Alfalfa, MycoGrow, Molassas, and a bit of HydroGuard from my DWC days :) - Seedlings are chugging along nicely. Transplanted to 1gals at the end of the week. ProMix HP + EWC + 70/30 blend of Gaia Green All Purpose & Power Bloom. - Noticing a deficiency or possible lockout with one (top right) after transplanting. - Looks like I have a case of spidermites on the clone :( Going to treat with Neem Oil and Neem Meal. Wish me luck! Hope they don't spread to the seedlings. Stay Tuned and Stay Blessed! 🙏👽

Look at the video Weds was an explosion of growth. I tried a higher ambient temp on Thursday to dry out the medium and see how she would respond growth seamed to slow so it's back to 70F mornings slowly bring it up to 78F-80F for mid day. Watering every 48 hours early morning when light comes on or right before, Friday was flush 20% nutes 2 gals. LST seamed to slow growth too so I just let it do its own natural thing.

7/7: Transplanted plant to final pot! Roots showed out of tray. Accidentally pulled a root off during transplant 😢. After transplant I top feed/watered medium with a half gallon of treated water. I mixed 2ml of Rapid Start in 1 gallon water hub. Poured half in half gallon jug then poured half gallon over medium. Added 2 gallons of water into reservoir (1st white line) to promote root growth to bottom and to begin capillary reaction. 7/8: Bumped light intensity dimmer to 30%. 7/9: Left for Vacation.... Praying for my baby!🙏🏿 Going to be gone for 4 days. 😅 ***** For this Grow****** “Day Air Temperature” will be the max temp of tent for the week. “Substrate Temperature” will be the average temp of tent for the week. “Night Air Temperature” will be the lowest temp of the tent for the week.

A good week for the pink lady, no issues, the heatwaves have subsided a bit and there is a cold front that moved in. The RH has been steady, between 50-55%. I have decreased the nutrients further to just a bit of micro and cal mag. I have begun my process of “flushing” where I increase the water volume to allow for a 10-15% runoff. I find that this does not strip or shock the plant of nutrients it is still needing to fatten up. I do this for the last 4-5 feeds ending with straight phd water.

These are the tallest and densest in the tent but there is little to no smell yet to them. Trichome production is very good for the stage so hopefully they develop a nose in the next couple of weeks. I’d hate to end up with rock hard frosty OG Kush buds with no smell 😀

May 17, 2024 Day 92 We are at the end. Tropicana Cookies is in the dry tent having a nice 48 hours of dark. Tropicana C is now in the back of the tent with the 4 Sour Diesels up front. Yes I Tetrised the shit out of it to get them in. But everything is snug. Tropicana Cookies is officially done with the main tent and is now in the dry tent for dark. I defoliated her up yesterday and only left the sugar leaves on. No sense in keeping the fan leaves on the plant if it's going to be pitch black for 2 days. Plus it's much easier to manage. And will be much easier at trimming time. She is also nearly dried out. Just perfect timing for this part. I just hope I'm not too early. Trichomes are almost all cloudy and there's a good 10% amber. A couple more days and in the dark should help them mature right along. Tropicana C is still a hot floppy mess, but the tops have some potential. I think the majority of this plant will end up being pressed for concentrate. I wish I had a bubble washer. Oh well. Pressing flower is the option then. Anyway, she isn't quite fading still, so I'm hoping for that over the next couple of days. If not, then I'll defoliate and put her in the dark for a couple days as well. Her buds are all purple and that's what matters. She has about 5% amber trichomes and maybe 10% clear. Not enough cloudy for my taste. 4 more days? Maybe. 2 in the main tent and 2 more in the dark tent. I'm still trying to free up space for the Sour Diesels. The light doesn't matter really anymore. She isn't growing at all and her buds are probably as big as they are getting. It's just a matter of ripening now. Don't really need a lot of light for that part. But still, I'm leaving the light as it is. Especially now that the Sour Diesels are in there. The environment pisses me off. How the holy hell can I change the temp by 5 degrees and have no impact whatsoever on the humidity? Seriously. The temp is climbing a bit. I have to keep an eye on it as it's going above 78° and I don't want to melt my trichomes. Back down to 74° with the stupid humidity stuck at 62%. Annoying. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.4° RH: 61.4% VPD: 1.17 kPa Quick update: I had to increase the light power to accommodate the Sour Diesels now in the tent. They needed 200 to 25 mol/m²/d, so the light power as increased to 80%. The DLI only increased a couple points. No at 38 mol/m²/d. Everything looks fine. May 18, 2024 Nothing going on today. Tropicana Cookies is finishing up day 1 of dark. The humidity is a nightmare in the tent. It keeps climbing over 66%. I've tried everything at my disposal. Leave the tent door open, dehumidifier in the bedroom, dehumidifier in the tent? I don't think I tried that yet. I have 2 dehumidifiers in the main tent trying to keep the humidity down in there to no avail. I'm not bothering with trichomes today. I'll check trichomes tomorrow afternoon when she finishes up day 2 of dark. I may have to keep her in for a 3rd day. We shall see. Tropicana C needs to get out of the tent ASAP. Her floppy tops are flopping right over the sour Diesels, which are growing vigorously. 2 of them grew 2" last night alone. They need the room now. Tropicana C just isn't ready for the dark tent yet. Maybe a few more days? She's just starting to show signs of fading now. I'll check trichomes tomorrow as well. The lighting is of no concern. It's making the tent too hot, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything to Tropicana C. Tropicana Cookies doesn't have light. Lol. The environment is a nightmare. Humidity is WAY too high. And now the temp is too high. No matter what I do, I can't control it at all. The temp is 77° and the humidity is still ridiculous at 66%. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.4° RH: 64.2% 1.05 kPa Update: so I was researching other issues high humidity can cause. It slows down production and the plant won't drink because there is too much moisture in the air. It makes total sense. All of the flowering plants are taking forever to finish up. Now I think I know why. Also, I added 1/2 gallon of plain water to Tropicana C reservoir. As she isn't quite done yet, I would rather her have a source of water if she needs or wants it. I added one of the dehumidifiers to the dark tent with Tropicana Cookies. Now the humidity is around 51% with the temp hanging out around 76° to 77°. It spiked into 79° earlier, but I was messing with the heat in my room. May 19, 2024 Busy day today. No watering or anything, but a very busy day. Tropicana Cookies was wet trimmed and chopped down today. It took 94 days total from seed to harvest. After wet trimming, her total wet weight was 14 oz. A bit surprising to me. I was honestly thinking closer to like 9 oz, but I'll take it. Trimming took roughly 4 hours. I'm not sure why, but it did. I'm slow I guess. There was no sense in trying to keep the trimmings for this round. There really wasn't much and I need a bigger table to catch it all. Messy. I've also discovered that the majority of the buds are a bit loose. Mostly the lowers and some of the middles, but the tops are mostly good. I think based on my own mistakes, I'll be using the majority of this plant for concentrate. Maybe the whole plant. We will see. It all depends on how it dries and what the end result is. Both plants were not very happy with my nutrient regimen. Oh well. A lesson well learned. Tropicana C is still floppy as ever, but now instead of a near black purple, she's almost like magenta or something. Dark pink? Lol. Something like that. She's starting to fade now and most of her tops are all colored. I'm just waiting for the fan leaves to catch up. I'll keep her in the tent for as long as I can. Maybe 3 more days? Maybe. Her buds are definitely loose in the bottoms. The mids and tops are pretty nice. We'll see how they look after wet trimming. The dry tent is hanging out at 70° and 61% humidity. I'd love it to go down to 65°, but for some reason it won't. I'll get it right in no time. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.5° RH: 68.3% VPD: 0.84 kPa May 20, 2024 We have fade! Tropicana C is finally starting to fade. Light green leaves coming in with purple hues. The buds are basically pink, it I expect them to get darker as she moves along. Tropicana Cookies Day 1 Drying. She looks good. Not much to report. She's drying. It could take between 5 and 7 days. Due to her smaller buds and the wet trim I did, I don't expect her to take very long to dry. And it seems that the environment is pretty nice. 61% humidity and 68°. The temperature could be lower though. Tropicana C looks good. Still super floppy, but she has pretty buds. Not very tight buds. I'll do the same wet trim as well. She should end up drying after about 5 days. For now, she's drying her soil out and fading at the same time. I might give her another half gallon just to tie her over until harvest. I also plan on defoliation in the next few days after the fade is well underway. The light is the same. No changes there. The environment is still wonky. The temp is at 74° which I finally got control of again. The humidity on the other hand is still super high at 65%. I really don't understand. It was 40% humidity out yesterday and even with the outside door wide open, the humidity did nothing to drop. Nothing at all. It's weird. It's back to being humid today, so no opening the door. Hopefully I can get it to clear up ASAP. Oh, I did just learn that the central air isn't working either. And that is the main source of cool dry air. With none, I'm stuck using a portable AC that just blows wet air back into the room when the condenser is off. Stupid design. Very stupid. Even the dehumidifier function doesn't work right. It does the same thing except with heat. So my room gets too warm but the humidity stays the same. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.6° RH: 67.7% VPD: 0.86 kPa May 21, 2024 Day 2 of drying for Tropicana Cookies. The whole plant shrunk to half its size. Small tight buds. As I said before, the majority of this plant will most likely be pressed. We shall see. Tropicana C is showing way more fade now. Like twice as much as yesterday. It's coming on fast and hopefully that means she's finishing up fast. I checked her trichomes today. Looking good. She definitely needs way more amber though. But has much less clear. So it's mostly cloudy, but definitely nowhere near enough amber. What's funny is how floppy she is. One would think those buds wouldn't develop properly, but they are swelling and getting more purple just like the rest of the plant. Interesting. I still don't know what happened here, but I'm guessing it has all to do with the nutrients this run. Bad timing. This plant may also be mostly pressed. Her buds aren't as dense as Tropicana Cookies and they are definitely not tight. Unless by some miracle, they blow up and fill in over the next few days. We shall see. The environment is finally leveling out now that the central air is on. Finally. It won't drop the humidity all the way to the low 40s%, but it will drop it below 55%. And that's keeps the tent below 60% and put of the danger zone for mold. However, I know it's still too high for the plant to perform at max potential, but it's the best I can do for now. Once it kicks on again, the humidity will hopefully drop to 50%, then maybe my dehumidifiers will start working as they are meant to. Grow System Environment: Temp: 72.7° RH: 62.9% VPD: 1.00 kPa May 22, 2024 Tropicana Cookies day 3 of drying. I haven't weighed her up yet to see how far along she is. I'm really not expecting her to take very long at all. Her buds are small so she should be done in a couple more days. Tropicana C is fading quite quickly. Looking really close to finishing up. However, the Sour Diesels in the tent are already in pre-flower and are starting to stretch. The need space ASAP. So I think I'll harvest her whole tomorrow she's not very leafy and I don't think she will get mold at all. She still has super loose buds so she will dry up within 5 to 7 days I think. Even at 60% RH, I think. On the other hand, she was way too dry, so I added a half gallon to the reservoir. I was planning on harvesting in a couple days, but I don't think I have that much time anymore. Originally I was going to wet trim Tropicana C just like Tropicana Cookies, but her branches are way too weak and floppy to trim without snapping branch after branch. So as I said earlier, I'll be dry trimming her instead. The environment is back to being wonky. The central air hasn't turned on yet today and it's 85° out. So my room is suffering a bit with my crappy portable AC. It blows wet air when the compressor turns off. So the humidity is back up above 60%. The temp is fine at 75°, so I'm opening the tent periodically until the AC turns on. I also added a new trichome video for Tropicana C. Getting really close. Let me know how close I am? Or does it not really matter at this point? Update: I decided to completely defoliate Tropicana C. I don't know I will do. Full wet trim. The buds are small and so are the branches. So there shouldn't be any issues with the higher humidity. I'll be doing it in sessions as not to stink up the whole house. But basically anything with a stem I can access is getting cut off. Who knows, maybe I'll finish defoliating fst than I think and will wet trim anyway. She is definitely getting harvested tomorrow. I'm completely out of space for the Sour Diesels. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.7° RH: 59.4% VPD: 1.20 kPa May 23, 2024 Tropicana Cookies Day 4 Drying. I have a moisture meter for the stems and will be using that tomorrow to see how far along she is. Still a couple more days I think. It might be Harvest Day for Tropicana C! Honestly, I would have liked a little more time, but I have other plants that need the space. So I'm wet trimming her today and will harvest later tonight or maybe tomorrow. We shall see. Either way, she is done even if she's not. I'll take one last Trichome Video after I'm done trimming. Then I can see if she's actually ready or not. Maybe she is. I don't think so though. Not much else for today. Unless I harvest, then I'll update. Grow System Environment: Temp: 76.2° RH: 60.6% VPD: 1.18 kPa

Germinated for 24 hours in a glass of water, 48 hours in a paper towel and then I planted them into biodegradable seedling pots. Northern Lights looking a bit ahead of the Dosidos seeds but that was expected I’ve grown Northern Lights before and they sprout real quick. One of the Dosidos’ first true leaves is looking a bit wonky but we’ll see how it goes I suppose.
