Got environment mostly dialed in thanks to an additional cool air intake fan, can get 450w mh nice and close for good penetration. Beginning the process of Lst, I’ve wrapped some plant straps around the base of each plant to anchor them, and straps at the top of their stems, giving them a slight bend. I’ll slowly increase the bend over time in order to avoid possible damage. The Gelato OG seems quite vigorous compared to the Widow so far. Starting to bump up nutes, runoff @400ppm -10/28

Both plants looking slightly different towards the end. #2 is bulkier but less frosty and #1 is the opposite. #2 could be ready now but #1 definitely needs another week or 2. Might take a top off to see how it is now. Looking forward to testing!!

Slowly going into flower. I mean real slow lol. It's showed some pistills about a week ago and still you really have to look for them a week later. My veg lights are 5700k and are on 24/7. Guna let them stretch a bit more and flip to my flower light's 3500k and change time to 20/4 sometime this week

Forgot to update yesterday but I switched the lights to 12-12 and she’s stretching healthily (4DAYS)! She’s bushed out so much I figured it was the right time to flip as I have the others that had reached my ideal time of 6 weeks! I’ve removed grape ape as she was too small but gave her to a friend to finish so she’s still documented on grow diaires thanks to @godg420 stay tuned for flowers 💐

For week 2 I did couple of changes: Water change in order to add TPS Silica Lower the light to 16 inches / 30% light / I’m getting a PPFD of 300/400 Both genetics are wronging super fast, the only thing is the COCO FRESH when there is no light the leafs kind of go down, once they get light they go back up again, wondering is that’s how they are or if there is a problem, I will ask around here, if anyone knows why I will appreciate all the info. This week I should be able to switch the light from the G8600W to the G1000W, I’m moving the 8600 to a 4x4 with another genetic. I will also get the T7 AC humidifier and I will change also the in line fan to AC, I want to control everything with my phone (AC infinity app)

Last week the plants grew looking very healthy although I still have a feeling the low humidity is slowing their growth, by the end of the first week I started raising the EC to make the increasing for this week smoother, run-off EC is substantially increasing so I will start to fertigate them twice a day for this week.

All I can smell is Garlic and onions when I enter the vicinity of these plants…. After a few weeks fighting a systemic infection in the hydro system and res the plants have stabilized and are PUNGENT… loudly pungent!!!

Final week of flower for some and we will start the harvest. Also we flushed the plants at the start of the week. All the plants got flushed and will be given the final weeks as required. All looks good and frosty. Lemon Z and Peyote Cookies look out of this world. Gorilla cookies look good but plenty of variation in phenos

Havent had time to update the grow, but things are going great! Im in week 13 of veg and ready for flower finally! The girls are all ready except for one runt but im.not worried as the others are all pretty big rn. Just got a hydro x system by trolmaster to serve as complete environmental controller for me and also remote control via internet while im.away at my day job. I added a second net as a scrog 12inches above base of plants and have increased my original 4x8 tent to a 5x9 by cutting off tent and expanding the net surace area. Im afraid to veg any longer as i know the stretch is alawys more than anticipated. Also, the roots are getting massive in the 13gal pots. Safe time to start flowering now. Im excited and looking forward to the changes to come :) Thanks for taking the time to read this and check out my journal. Any comments are welcome and appreciated! Til next time, Happy Growing!!!

Hola amigo! Arrancamos un nuevo proyecto, esta hermosa sativa The Ethiopian de @TERPYZ Semillas regulares, genética landrace pura de Etiopía, grande, gran poder sativa, larga floración y resistente a clima húmedo y cálido. La marca recomienda sembrar directamente al sustrato, aquí, en suelo vivo funcionó perfectamente. 4 de 4 germinadas. Los brotes tardaron 3 a 4 días en aparecer entre el húmedo ambiente inicial. Se mantendrán en el tupper hasta que se vea estabilidad y tamaño apto Saludos a todos y éxitos, este proyecto viene cargado de una gran aventura

Great week! She grew 10in and responds well to the full dose of nutes. Cut back on the Gro and upped Bloom. Smell up 1100sq feet nicely. She’s been under a 600w and will be put in a 5x5 soon with a 1000w LED.

18.5.25: I watered with 3ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.4. I added Per 6.5 litres; ♡ 1Tsp Sea K(elp) ♡ 1/2 Tsp Bud Explosion PK booster ♡ 7ml Trace PH: 6.4 PPM: 780 I added the PK booster this feeding, just to provide some phosphorus without risking an excess. Next time, I won't use it. 19.5.25. Northern lights had got quite bushy, and there were a lot of extra leaves covering up some prime budsites. So I went ahead and Defoliated some of the larger fan leaves that were covering and blocking out other buds. The plants are growing very fast. The buds are getting very nicely structured. Northern Lights is drinking about 3 l per day, and I will continue to use the Greenleaf nutrients sea kelp and Ecothrive Biosys, along with the Ecothrive trace For the calcium, magnesium and trace elements. She has indeed stopped stretching now and is focusing on the bud formations. It's a very lovely smell, too! 😋 I use these all the way through. ☆ Xpert Nutrients PH down, up to 1ml. ☆ Ecothrive Neutralise 1 drop per litre from the 1ml pipette, which is attached. This is my dechlorinator. 21.5.25: I defoliated today again. This time, I took a little more off than I did yesterday as things had become congested, and the buds in the centre weren't getting any light. I got covered in sticky...ness?! I forgot to wear gloves, but for some reason, my non dominant hand got covered in resin and the other, not at all. Anyway, I hope I've managed to include the before defoliation and after videos/photos. I think it's much better after, there's so many buds I couldn't even see in the centre! I probably should have done it sooner, but I was trying hard to take as little as possible this run. Anyway, this is the prime bud building period. So, taking the leaves covering all the centre colas will not only provide equal light penetration but also get rid of some of the nutrients stored in the leaves. So, any nutrients available in the remaining leaves can deplete to a happy medium. That being said, we're coming close to the end of mid flowering. I'm really hoping to produce some good sized colas! 🤞💚😉🍃😃🌱 I'm certain I won't be disappointed, she's looking 🔥😍😀😋 24.5.25: I watered with Ecothrive Biosys 3ltrs each. The plants are still drinking at least 2 litres per day. They are increasingly thirsty, and it's important that I don't let them dry out. The soil is mostly coco and perlite, so it can dry out quicker. There are plenty of worm castings, too, so that definitely helps. The buds are developing and progressing very nicely, keeping up with the flowering nutrients and alternating between Ecothrive Biosys, Trace, and Greenleaf Nutrients. 24.5.25: I watered with 2.5 ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.3 I added Per 6.5 litres; ♡ 1Tsp Sea K(elp) ♡ 1/2 Tsp Bud Explosion ♡ 7ml Trace PH: 6.3 PPM: 840 SOLUTION TEMP: 30°C SOIL PH: 7 SOIL TEMP: 21°C AMBIENT TEMPERATURE: 23-26°C RELATIVE HUMIDITY: 58%. Thanks for stopping by 😊🌱🤞💚✌️🍃

With no doubt these plants have not produced much more quantity and density of buds due to the 2 serious mistakes I've made (those who have read the weeks will know what I mean). However, I can say that I am happy with the production obtained given the mistakes made. Between the 2 plants, the one that has produced more and generated the most dense buds has been the Gorilla with the Man-lining technique applied, it has also loosed a bit less weight drying than the non man-lining one. In comparison with the Money Makers with which they have grown the result is the same. Both Gorillas have each produced more than any of the Moneys comparing them 1 to 1. Also buds are a bit dense than the moneys, but none of them is really desde at all. *****ESPAÑOL***** Sin duda estas plantas no han producido mucha mas cantidad y densidad de cogollos debido a los 2 graves errores que he cometido (quien se haya leído las semanas sabrá a que me refiero). No obstante, puedo decir que estoy contento con la producción obtenida dados los errores cometidos. Entre las 2 plantas, la que más a producido y ha generado cogollos más densos ha sido la Gorilla con la técnica de Man-lining aplicada, y también ha perdido un poquito menos de peso en el secado que la otra. En comparación con las Money Maker junto a las que han crecido el resultado es el mismo. Las Gorillas han producido cada una más que cualquiera de las Moneys comparándolas 1 a 1. Así mismo, los cogollos de las Gorillas presentan un pelín más densidad que el de las Moneys, aunque realmente ninguna de las 4 plantas ha generado cogollos densos del todo.

This strain has huge fat buds everywhere there was not one popcorn bud sooo i think this is a keeper

Bola Mintz by Anesia Seeds Wet toiletpaper in ziplock bag method. Old recommendation from a fellow GD grower and works really good. Lets wait for germination, i will update the diary with pictures when it has some root going on. Also posted some pictures of my line-up for the coming months --update1- took 4 days to get a nice little root to transplant into the soil... So we made a nice video of the transplant from paper towel in ziplock bag to coco --update2 - 1 day later i noticed something was coming out of the soil...added some pics of it

I think she‘s ready to bloom 👍😂

May 24th : Went on a mini vacation and came back to my girls just growing strong!! wooo! can't wait to see these girls just explode as i'm flipping them to flower tonight! I'll be adjusting their nutrients soon and logging that as well! Tonight I just did a plain water / flush on the girls. Going to slowly lower the lights down to probably around 12 - 14 inches and try to keep it at around that height for the rest of the grow! It blows my mind how quickly these things have shot up.. Guess they don't call it weed for no reason!! P.S. The brackets i'm using to hold up my fans are actually an Ikea Wine bottle holder that my wife had, I cut it into three pieces cleaned it all up and zip tied it to the pole. Then hung the fans from the top of the tent with a quick adjust light rope. Now all I gotta do is push the fan up or down to where I want and tighten the light rope! works great!! May 25th : Got a new little Hanging bulb for in the tent that I can move around for pictures. I'm thinking i'm going to pick up another but it sure helped with the overexposed photo's! Can't believe how much they shot up over their first night at 12/12. This is going to be insane! May 26th : Opened the tent to pretty much all the girls praying! Sadly I must have miss watered the front right one. Oh well Soaked her good I'm sure she will be rocking again in no time.. Stretched them out a bit more after the photo's. I think maybe only a few more days of really finishing the LST with the scrogg net. May 27th : Welp even after lst and bending the hell out of these girls after last night's photo, they are showing no signs of slowing down! It's beautiful! Had to move my lights up about 5 inches as they shot up so close! May 28th : I am officially done with all lst and hst training and i'm gonna let them grow wild! Going to do another 1/3 str veg nute feeding tonight it will be their last veg feeding from this point on i'll be onto the flowering cycle of nutes. I plan on starting all Flower nutes at 1/2 strength and ramp up according to how the girls respond. Saw my first signs of Budding tonight Sorry for the overexposed pic on it but I realized it after the lights came on! I'll take more close ups tomorrow! (edit: changed my mind! decided to just go ahead and start all the flowering nutes also! will update log) May 29th : Not a whole lot to report, had to move my fans up as the girls were growing dangerously close. It's amazing to see this stretch, and to imagine it's hardly even started! May 30th : Opened my tent up to an explosion of growth. Humidity levels were way higher than what I wanted due to lack of air movement through and under the canopy. Decided it would be best to Get to the Lollipopping tonight. Put up some before and after pics of our crazy lollipopping adventure! Can't help but feel like I just mutilated the hell out of them.. Hope I didn't take to much!🙏 Guess we will find out! This marks the last day of the first week of flower! See ya all next week!

Great week inside the tent, somewhat uneventful out of it. UKBS 2 and Carl 2 have been growing (mainly carl 2, rip the homie UKBS2) and the plants inside the tent have been flourishing and really sugaring up despite how early they are into flower. Timelapse is here, ta-da! My nute syringe broke, so nutrient measurements are 100% inaccurate and I have no clue what I'm feeding my plants. Fun situation. Updates as the week goes. -5/28/2021 - Outdoor plants are staked out as they're quite tall and my area has a wind issue. Carl 2 is approximately 5 feet tall now, quite the monster. UKBS 2 is still suffering from degeneration, but the rest of the plant looks happy as usual. Broke out the nice camera yet again for some bud shots, gotta be one of my favorite parts of the grow process. -5/30/2021 - Indoor plants are getting quite fat in the bud department. Had to tie many of Carl 1's mains to the roof of the tent with some twine😂 - Should be some real fat goodness once she's ready to come down. Can't wait. -5/31/2021 - Last night fell asleep before closing the tent, lights on in the room. Hopefully nothing too bad as it was only one night.
