Day 50, just starting week 8.
Girls are doing ok, considering that I got distracted for a few days and missed a much needed watering. But we'll make it through.

During my last update I mentioned that I'd had a wrestling match with some spider mites. I won the battle, but you gotta stay on top or you'll lose the war. Anyway, many thanks to @Jsmith for the extended write-up and advise on dealing with mites and the use of DE. That was most kind of you. Fact is, although I still have some DE, I'm not fond of using it. Got some a couple of years also to combat fungus gnats. It didn't work at all for that (mosquito bits did), but man what a messy hassle using it. So far, my mighty mite solution has been alternating sprays of Dr. zymes and Trifecta. Seems to be doing the trick.

Here's my next update @Fast Buds Heather @Mañ'O'Green
We are at week 8 for the runtz feel like I have managed to steer here through the fungi issue thanks to the guys on here for helping identify it very greatful . Two very different phenos coming through on both plants , the larger one is forbidden fruit at its finest and the smaller one strangely enough stinks of a X of cheese and really sweet fruity smells that I can't quite put my finger on just yet. Both plants back to drinking nutes again feeding every other day with 2ltr plain water at end of week now

Kosher Cake and Wedding Glue Day 46

2T Floraflex Bloom A&B/5G
5 ML CalMag

One of the Kosher Cake crashed hard like it had completely died off. I pulled and flushed it, and it continued to go downhill.

Not gonna give up on it, but not sure exactly what happened as the other three are doing just fine (and starting to smell pretty good).

Checked the drippers and ensured they weren't clogged. Coco wasn't dried out. We'll see if it recovers. I cleaned up all the dead/dying leaves after shooting photos.

Official Update #5
Week 8
@Fast Buds Heather @Mañ'O'Green

we’ve hit the end of week 8 and things are doing the things that things do.
Mimosa Cake is still my bae, just the most well behaved gal in the tent.
She has totally taken to the cage, and there is a nice ring of fire flower going on!
She’s started to build frost and the budlets are getting bigger day by day.
I am also super pleased to report that she is starting to kick off this subtle sweet cakey smell. It’s not really cakey but I don’t know how else to describe it.
it is luvly up inside the nose!
I do think she will take another 4 weeks to finish tho which puts us around the 12 week mark.
I don’t have any factual data to back this up but I am of the mindset that all this training and controlled stress really can slow down the auto process.
im noticing a lot of the plants that I’ve big bended are taking 11-13 weeks to finish, almost irregardless of strain.
I don’t think the extra time is on the flower cycle, it’s all there on the veg cycle.
nothing I’m worried about, more like an anecdotal observation. Cause really I want the extra veg time, more time to help encourage wicked growth.
Anywho too many words.
here’s some pics of Mimosa Cake.
straw ban is still kicking but I’m sending pics directly to heather, straw ban is not grow and show worthy lol.
