I think I’ll chop tomorrow. I watered recently like 3 days ago and didn’t journal it. Bit I k or it hasn’t been 8 days since my last watering. I dont see much in clear trichomes, all milky w a lot of amber. I cut a piece off of a lower bud, it had less amber in it but was low on a branch. The upper buds’sugar leaves are starting to deteriorate and once again I am becoming paranoid that this could lead to bud rot if not cut down soon. I thing the plants look great and are pretty much ready. Maybe another week would be good, but I think it is fine at this stage. If I would have gotten home from work earlier, I probably would have chopped today. 72D of flower.

Watered today. Even tho I’m growing organically I still ph my water. My tap comes out around 8.0 and I aerate it and bribg ph to around 6.6-6.7; well, I’ve stopped ph-ing water. They are coming down soon and there is no need. Im seeing the fade coming in. A lot of tops which are beautiful, some of the lower buds are a little underdeveloped but that’s fine, I’m going to chop chop it all. I’m thinking Wednesday or so and get these girls drying. Once they are drying the plant juggling will begin! Everything will be getting moved around! Overall these plants have given me no issues and they were fun to grow! even with one plant being so much larger than the other I have really enjoyed this grow. I may grow again depending on the final product! I have more seeds of this strain.

Didn’t check trichomes today, but I already know how they be lookin: they lookin good! I’m seeing a lot of change in color in the leaves. Leave are not as green as they were some are turning a purplish yellow. Some down clawing is going on too but I am not concerned with that at all. Prob harvest next week is my guess. I was wanting buds to fatten up a little still but they are doing pretty well none-the-less.

Day 56 of flower (8 weeks old!). I thought I’d check the trichomes under microscope and was surprised to see how far along everything is! I hadn’t checked until now because I still see white pistols and I’m still seeing buds ripening and bulking up. I’m not ready to chop! I want buds to fatten up a bit more. I’ll keep checking trichomes but it’s looking as if these ladies time is near!

(Pic 1 is from 2 days ago, the rest are from today. I forgot to take an overhead pic of both plants). The buds are getting pretty dense! I’m really liking what is going on in tent. Taller plant has much larger buds where as the shorter plant has little golf ball buds. It’ll be interesting to see how the weights differ at the final weigh in! Leaves have a little light burn on tips; im not concerned about it tho.

Watered. Gave some calmag too. (I know, it isn’t organic, but fuck it). Some of the tips of leaves are brown. I think it is a little light burn, nothing big or anything that I’m worried about (yet); but I’ll watch it and make sure it doesn’t get worse. It isn’t nute burn, because the nutes in soil are nearly exhausted. It couldn’t be a ph thing either because I am pretty careful w my ph. I am 94% sure it is light burn. Light burn seems to be my nemesis!

Watered. Plants are doing really well. Smelling good and getting bulky. There are some pretty big buds on both plants (more on the taller one), but the buds which are not huge are still pretty solid and firming up. I can’t wait to see the buds in 2 weeks from now and how different they’ll look!

Top Dressed and watered. Gave a 70% Flower and 30% veg of dr earth. I mixed into a bowl tossed in a handful of Sunshine Pro, worm castings, and a little perlite (to try to avoid the top layer getting all hard). I mixed in the amendments into the top layer of my pots and watered. They are both looking pretty solid! They smell like Pineapple Orange floor cleaner! It’s pretty amazing!

Water/molasses today. Girls looking pretty, Smelling pretty too!! I trimmed off a few small branches and leaves that were under the canopy but IDT I’ll be doing much more. There are a few spots in the back of tent i wouldn’t mind trimming but it is a bit difficult to reach, so it may stay! I made up a little too much water/molasses so I will save it for tomorrow when I water/top dress my Pluto Cut Auto. I generally don’t like keeping water in my waterer but I”m sure it’ll be just fine until tomorrow! I’m already thinking about what I’ll be growing next in this tent once these two are harvested. I may do an auto run in this tent but I haven’t made up my mind yet. I’ve also been thinking of just growing one Photo instead of 2 and really trying to fill out the tent with it; plant in a 7 or 10 gallon pot. I’m not needing to make a decision anytime soon, just some things I’ve been thinking of.

PopsGarden420 Sound like all good ideas my man. The large photo would take significantly longer but it is a cool to work with a plant that long and grow it out.
60tree Grower Looking on point whatever you’re doing seems to be working so keep it up and don’t be discouraged when shit happens because well… shit happens. 👍🏻
cookredeyed Thanks guys! I’ve been debating for a long time about just doing 1 plant. My tents are a bit crowded at end of flower with 2! (It’s all good tho!😎). I feel like I could increase my yield w just 1 plant too. But if something was to happen to that plant then I’m out a whole grow. If I have 2 well then I got another to fall back on if something was to happen to one.

Watered. It doesn’t feel like the plants are really getting any taller seems like the stretch is basically done. Buds are all developing nicely I’m really liking how everything is looking. I lollipoped a bit more and defoliated a little off of the canopy to get more light to some bud sites. Can’t really tell in pics but I took a lot off the top. I didn’t go wild with it but definitely cleaned it up a bit.

Lollipopped a bit today. I was only going to do a little at a time but got a little carried away. I think they look good! I also raised my light as high as I could today! I may have to consider a new way to hang my light soon if plant on left gets any taller. I also removed my fan from ceiling which gave me a little more headspace (since I got the new oscillating fan, the airflow has really improved I think and I don’t think I need the ceiling fan). I need to defoliate the canopy which I’m a bit nervous about. But I’ll start soon. I want a little more light hitting buds that are shaded. The plant on left in the 7gal pot is giant in comparison to the 5gallon! I sure do hope they stop stretching soon!

Watered. In the photos you can really see how much taller the 7gallon gal is! I’m going to start pruning the little bud sites away that are beneath the net. There is a lot of smalls that Idt will amount to anything. I’m liking what I’m seeing overall, but so far, I am unsure if I’ll grow this plant again. CLEARLY, once buds really start to POP I could change my mind!

Watered. Used RO water which I don’t normally do but I forgot to prep my water yesterday w good ol tap water. Girls were thirsty. Some leaves are a little droopy. Plant on left, in the 7 gal pot, is towering above the one in the 5gal pot. Lots and lots of bud sites. I love this part of the plant’s life! So exciting to first see the buds all start developing!

Watered and top dressed. I did for the 7 gallon pot: 9.5Tablespoons of bloom and 4.5T of the veg dr earth dry organic amendments and 7T bloom/3T V for the 5 gal pot. I’ll top dress again in 21 days the same amounts. I like the dr earth nutes a lot. These will be my 1st photo run using only dr earth. Plant in the 7 gallon pot is a bit bigger than the 5 gallon. I have the pot raised too. I may have to add another riser under pot if I can to try to get to same level. It’s hard w the net to do any major moving; the downside to using a trellis net. All good though. I ain’t stressing one bit!! Buds are beginning to develop too

Watered the ladies this fine eve. I wish I had noticed when transplanting into the final pots that I had a 5 and a 7 gal pot. Not that big of a deal but the one in the 7 is def larger. In a week from today I’ll top dress them, their first flowering top dress. I can’t wait to start seeing buds. I never intended to veg for 60 days but it’s now part of the advenchaaa! I’m curious how they’re going to make my garage smell once buds start developing. These will be my first photo run using only Dr Earth. The mota hari started with Gaia green but wen I ran out i switched to dr earth. Only my purple punch auto went seed to harvest using GG.

Plants are recovering nicely from my vicious scissor attack!! I plan on removing more leaf from under net but not for another day or two. There is also a few branches that have to reached the net. If they don’t stretch up I’ll prob chop them too. I want everything above net. Once I put netting up I feel like the tent is way more under control. I was getting pretty worried that these two were going to be just out of control! But I think all is good and I’m not thinking I’ll need to use a 2nd net like I thought I would

Watered. I tried to even out the canopy a little. Looks a little rough but it’ll look nice by tomorrow. I trimmed a little more under net. Won’t do any more for a bit. I did better lollipoping the mota hari than previous runs but I think I still need to be a bit more aggressive with it. I’m gonna let plants recover before i do any more snipping. I’m happy with how they are looking and i think they’ll be happy from what I’ve done! No regerts!🤣

Flipped today on day 60. I also put up the trellis net. Once my Mota Hari is done and harvested, I will put my other trellis net in to try to balance out the canopy (prob in a couple of weeks). I did some aggressive lollipoping on her. Basically I took off any leaf under net and cut a few small branches that I didn’t think would amount to much. Lights are on 12/12 and I’m pretty happy with what I’ve done- - - no regrets!

I decided I’m going to move the Pluto Cut Auto into the 2x2 with the flowering chemdogging and flip these 2. I’m running out of space! My veg tent isn’t great for flowering as it isn’t easily accessible on all sides like my flower tent so I’ll either have to move them later on or just deal with it. Not doing the move tonight tho. I’m too 🥱. Tomorrow or Wednesday.

Watered with calmag and some molasses today. On the front plant (the shorter one) some of the leaves have brown spots which im thinking is a calcium deficiency. It is only on some of the lower leaves. Overall look healthy. I will monitor the brown spotting and hope it doesnt worsen. My cat, Harry Pawter, loves helping me with my watering; he never goes into the tents, but loves being around when I’m working. My dog Penny isn’t allowed in garage; she sure wants to be though!

Going to hang the fan from ceiling of tent blowing down soon; that’ll clear up some floor space too. Everything seems to be going crazy in this tent all of a sudden!

Watered (with a little calmag) both gals this eve some brown spotting of a few of the leaves on both plants. Looking pretty healthy overall. I feel like these are odd plants and that i will have an interesting grow with them! I wish I would have been paying attention when transplanting last and put them in the same fucking size pots!
