First plant got a bunch of lockouts from the feed so I did an emergency flush..don't wanna mess with it anymore or cause nutrient burn on plant #2 so just water for the upcoming week. Will probably skip Cha Ching all together...not sure yet. Doesn't seem to me that either plant even needs it. Growing super frosty thoooo! Buds filling out I doubt they will get much thicker but I don't care...pretty exciting to watch them grow into their final form. I think these will be my best plants grown to date!!! :) Did a good amount of defoliation to get more light to the lower buds. Also cracked open my Mother Earth Coco Coir block for my next two grows and topped off these 5 gallon pots..the plants definitely seemed happier with that fresh layer added! Getting closer to the finish line!!

Ok

These two were the easiest to grow ever, not even one issue. Strong, fast grow and amazing terps.

This was a quiet week. The girls were recovering from their topping but were also flipping into flower. They have been getting water every two days and that seems to be an issue so I bought an auto watering drip system to install next week. The one I was most excited for this run has done very poorly since getting topped. That's depressing since the girls buds are already purple. Wanted to see how she grows but really might have stunted this one. Only time will tell. Dimmed to 60% Here are the lights details: Medic Grow Mini Sun-2 150W LED Model: MN150-022 Spectrum mode: V1 Efficacy: 2.8 umol/J Thanks for stopping by!

Week 9 This week has been fairly busy in the tent. I have defoliated a couple of times and there has been a lot of tying the plant down. I also connected all my top off lines and drain lines. The top of my tent was a bit of a mess with cords and cables etc so I cleaned that rats nest up and that gave me the warm and fuzzies when I was done lol. I raised my lights up to where I hope to flower so that way the plant can grow up into the lights when the stretch hits. I have not reached 16 tops yet but I will be topping in the next few days so I am very close to the desired number of tops. I have not changed anything inside the cooler either. It’s the same ppm, pH etc as last week. I love how healthy this plant is even though I have not done a water change in 9 weeks lol. That’s blasphemy is some circles lol. 😎🌱🍻

D50. The start of the fourth week of flower, and all is well in the tent. ------------------------------ D51. I noticed a few necrotic spots on a couple of leaves. I suspect that it's a Calcium deficiency. I ordered some Biobizz Cal-Mag, hoping to stop the problem from spreading when it gets here in a couple of days. I also calibrated my Hygrometer since I've noticed lately that it seemed a bit off. Sure enough, it was off by 7%. ------------------------------ D54. There's not much to report as she is just doing her thing without any help from me. The necrotic spots haven't spread even though I haven't added any cal-mag. What I see, though, is senescence starting, but according to RQS, Purplematic can finish in as little as eight weeks. I haven't checked her trichomes yet but will once I get back, as I'm going out of town for a week, and she will be left to her own devices. ------------------------------

Both Plants loving life at this point still no sign of flowering from the cherry but the GCookie is just beautiful.

D29. We're at the start of the fifth week of veg, and today, I finally topped the first girl. I should have done it a while back, but I couldn't decide how to train the girls. Due to how tall the first girl had become, I topped quite a bit of her. I left four nodes, applied LST and some minor defoliation, so now I have eight tops in an almost flat canopy. I'll top the second girl later this week before putting in the scrog net. I noticed how the second girl at the end of the day had drooping taco leaves, indicating that she is getting too much light. I raised the light and will observe tomorrow how she react. This strain seems sensitive to how much light it gets during veg, and I'm curious how it will react once we're in flower. ------------------------------ D31. The first girl has bounced back from her topping and is looking great. I will top the second girl in a day or two, but since she has greater internodal spacing, I will keep only six branches to have both girls at a similar height. ------------------------------ D32. I brewed up a quick compost tea using oat flour as the food source. Some people claim that that will result in a fungally dominant tea, so I thought I'd try it out. I also added humic acid and a teaspoon of myco because why not? Honestly, I'm not sure it is even possible to create a fungally dominant AACT, as the constant water movement will most likely tear the fungal hyphae apart as they form. In any case, a different food source should promote other bacteria than the molasses I usually use. Diversity is the name of the game in living soil. Well, in life in general. I gave each girl 2 liters (5% of container volume) of tea @ pH 6.1. ------------------------------ D33. Today, I topped the second girl. At first, I tried to keep four nodes, but her internodal spacing was much larger than the first girl, so I had to cut her down to three nodes. Some LST followed the topping to start shaping that flat canopy. She looked pretty scraggly afterward but had perked up a few hours later. ------------------------------ D35. We're on the last day in the first week of flower. All is well in the tent, and the second girl has bounced back from her topping. I'll let them veg for another week or so and then flip them. I bought a mushroom grow kit to keep in the tent. I figured I'd test it out and see how it works. The mushrooms produce CO2 that the plants love, and hopefully, I'll get some tasty Oyster mushrooms to eat — two birds with one stone and all that. Yesterday, I gave the girls around 1 liter each of water @ pH6.0, with EM-1 added at 20ml/l, and today the girls got some fulvic foliar spray just before lights out. ------------------------------

Just cut up the lemon shining silver haze yesterday, first pics are from after i cut the wonder pie (from another diary) and i put one of my plants from outside there instead. Going to post more updates when i can actually smoke it!

…….

It's been a very simple grow cycle for this Mimosa Cake auto. I started with a super soil and eventually started using bottled nutrients to get me to the finish line. It's been almost 100 days since germination and the finish product is a really stout & bushy plant with a dense flower composition. I will dry for 8-10 days at 65-70 degrees F and 55- 60 % relative humidity. After that she gets put in mason jars indefinitely. Advise for growing this strain: - Utilize LST techniques frequently - Stay on top of defoliation, she gets really bushy - She seemed to really like CalMag at full strength in compost extracts Thank you growdiaries.com Thank you growmies for all your advise Thank you Fastbuds

This will be a bit of a challenge, one of the LCC is 45cm while the others are 25cm. I gave them little ramps to keep canopy even and all 3 are still looking healthy.

It has been raining and raining since whatever... 2 weeks....checked the trichomes nice milky white. Based on the fact the the weather won't be better and also the temperature is lower day by the now usually 6 Celsius degrees in the evening and 13-16 during the day or less, I decided to harvest next week. I was thinking to let her out 3 more weeks just to have more amber trichomes but she is OK, ready but this weather is not ... She is sativa dominant as I saw in the breeder's description so totally cool. So she ain't gonna be maturing that much she reached the point.... especially because no sun.... ... but compare to that she has som nice colas so I am excited let's see soo guys. Thanks all of you checking this progress out. Beautiful lady, large LST made her really nice literally she looks like more plant but yes ONLY ONE PLANT IN THE PICTURE AND THE GARDEN :) Have a lovely day :)

Great harvest but I believe I can do a lot better with what I learned. See the next round coming soon, one last seed on the tube. The last pictures I'll be able to post from Sweet seeds hahahaa the harvest just vanish. As a rule of thumb, I saved the top buds for last and manage to do these pictures for their contest. Enjoy.

Well got to the end with a nice harverst. smoke is good.. rosin is better!

Skywalker putting on tons of frost and seems to be happy with the status quo so no more compost teas for her. Starting to have a distinct Kush scent filling the tent now. In the future I’d probably LST this from the start to increase yields but other than some defoliation throughout, I haven’t done any training which has been nice. Blueberry impressed me with the size of the buds starting to form. Signs of frost for sure. Not very aromatic yet at this point. Stem rub is a different story. She has been showing some signs of calcium/mag deficiency in some of the leaves which seemed to improve with top dressing/Recharge. Been drinking a steady liter minimum daily Glueberry OG continues to explode in growth. I’ve done quite a bit of defoliation to keep tops exposed and it has bounced back quick each time. I can see why this would be a fun strain outdoors, as it is slowly taking up a solid 4 square ft of the tent. I may end up finishing this outdoors depending on its desire to consume the canopy space. Due to the longer flower period, I’ll keep up with compost teas to support all that growth. So far, it seems to be working Week ended 7/20

Past 2 weeks shes developed dense boulder shaped nugs that run all through out the plant. Today was first day of flush so 5 days ish I'll be harvesting this beauty. Perfect timing for the greenhouse seed company competition that I've surprisingly been giving the opportunity. Happy growing.

Week 26 August - 1 september 26 August - just water (1.5l) 29 August - feed day 1 september - feed day
