The plants are on the final stretch in flower. Iโ€™m still working on getting the calmag up to make the ladies look nicer. Overall Iโ€™m happy with these aircubes. The ladies grow extremely fast in them.

Still monsterous. Had to bend down more colas during this week!! Crazy plant. She will be so much better when I can spread her out, the amount of flowers on her are simply amazing. I honestly didn't know what fimming her side branches would do, but it looks like it's paid off in spades. A few more weeks to go yet, her trichomes have not developed yet. Anyway, apologies for poor pics this week, they're all getting too big to get in and out the tent without damage. Last week I snapped the main cola on the CBD ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I've dropped to weekly updates on Bertha as a stunted plant she doesn't hold much interest for me, she is only alive because I am not desperate for the space. Here she is on day 49 end of week 7. I will take multiple photos and a video once a week until she is chopped.

I can see the finish line. I started the flush this week 5/2/19 nothing but Harvested Rain Water 25 PPM filled both 5 gallon pots nice and slow to saturate the coco until I had runoff. I checked the drip pan PPM was 1986 I'm sure the residue from the other feedings were still in the pan from weeks past. I collect a clean sample of runoff today 5/5/19 with a 5 gallon flush on each pot and check that. 1100 ppm I used the Flawless Finish on the 5 gallons to clean out most of the salts let the plants slowly eat up the reserves in the fan leaves. I am seeing the yellow fade of autumn now. will let dry out for 2 more days and Flush again with the Flawless Finish on 5/7/19 PPM 390 I am seeing the fade to yellow on the shorter one the tall one is still green but the PPM on both are at 390. another 2 day dry out last flush 5 gallons of R/O WATER. on 5/9/19 The time-lapse files got corrupted ๐Ÿ˜ฅ but I shot a live video of some close ups. Cut of the SCROG and wow are they sticky. the smell is really strong now. Thanks for all the support and advice on this grow. I have to have patience for the chop, all most there.

6/1 I'm anxious to get my plants in their final homes. Another 90 degree day today and then it will be cooling off with some showers. I plan to take advantage and utilize that to make the transition. I have some small burns on a couple plants bit considering the weather we've had its nothing. Temperature swings 50 degrees. I hope these girls do OK outside. I was tired and stoned last night and I accidently topped a plant I had already FIMed. Oh well. Transplants soon. Supports screwed in after the heat. Plants have been handling this weather like a champ. Big thick healthy stalks. UPDATE PUT THE PLANTS IN AROUND 730. Cutting down on light hours I'm poverty close to where we are. It was 95 today. Plants have suprisingly little burning. My fan was taken so they go without that tonight too. In the next few days it's going to cool down and that's when I'll transplant. Only thing left before transplant is sanitizing trellis and supports. Easy peezy. Especially if it's supposed to be in the 50s. And people dent climate change lol. I'm hoping that all this adversity makes my flower a higher quality. I'm glad to have the quantity to pick the best phenos for the BIG POTS. Im trying to stay excited but it's just so dumb hot. Oh well. If the plants can do it so can I. I'm planning to give them some kelp me kelp you next watering and may start some light organic nutes. 6/2 Phone doesn't like uploading my videos. Broke record high temp yesterday 95 and tomorrow we will break the record low 50. Plants withstood the heat well and are doing great. Transplant soon. They were a little light but I held off on the water. Plan on it tomorrow. May transplant tomorrow. I have several videos that haven't uploaded. I thought they did but I was wrong. Oh well. UPDATE: Forgot to water. Some were light and others could've held off. Did the half a powerade bottle ahain. A litt ke less on the heavier ones. However I'm looking to transplant into final homes tonight and into this weekend. I sanitized a fifty and a forty so my bags and two pots are sanitized. Cage is sanitized and ready and pallets are sanktized and in place. The 40 and 60 fit PERFECT in the small space left from the pallets. Plus the plants always lean the opposite direction so things should go smooth. Only thingvleft is sanitizing stakes, bamboo, plastic garden stakes and all the other plastic training stuff. I'll just soak it while I transplant. Gotta mix the soil first too though. UPDATE. Heat went higher than expected and hit 90. I figured I'd go back around three and screw in suppirt stakes and begin getting everything ready for transplant (i.e. supports, mix soil, sanitize trellis) before I transplanted tomorrow MORNING was what I had planned. Unfortunately we got a huge thunderstorm with a shot ton of rain and it's gonna continue throughout the night. I think this is God's way of telling me to take a break. I can get up early and get those support stakes screwed in. Then when I get back from the wife's doctor's I can do the transplants. I'm trying to break the labor up into manageable chunks. Looking at my other diaries I can see that my plantscare fine in their three gallon homes. It'd a little disheartening seeing such big clones that I started so much earlier on the other diaries. However I always was fighting SOMETHING (usually more than one thing) and last year was a shit show. At least this year I stay away from anyone else's cannabis any clones and I'm extremely cautious. I've seen my cousin out perform me multiple times with healthy plants like this I'm excited to see how it goes. I really needed the break anyway but tomorrow morning the stakes will be in. Hopefully they'll be outside. 6/3 Broke the record for low days after breaking record for highs. I saw it 94 yesterday and the day before. On the way to my grow at 6am it was 44 degrees and it's not warming up much. Fifties at best. Rainy. I left the door closed. The big door on the otherside got opened as the other end of the garage neededcto he used. If the rain let's up I'm going to set up the grade stakes so I can transplant in the morning and throughout the day. I think I'm going to light dep a couple of them and leave them in the 3's. We'll see. UPDATE: At 12:30 the temp today was 44. Yesterday it was 94. I can't believe this. Plants are doing great though and are in the garage under lights for the day. The BIG door was open part of the day. Didn't take any pictures (or even enter the grow area) as I sanitized the last 40 gallon pot and a bunch of grade stakes. I drilled the grade stakes to the pallets in the front. The first row is done. Just need to sanitize the plastic trellis itself and finish attaching the other grade stakes. I don't need the fill trellis up by transplant. I just need the bags to not knock over and have SOME support. I'll be back over there either to tonight to put more supports in or tomorrow when I actually plan to start transplanting. I'm getting excited. After dealing witb the stiff that I sanitized I didn't dare go fuck with my plants so I looked through the window. I'll finish sanitizing the net tomorrow. These plants look great. I'm wondering if doing the two diagonal I poles with zipties actually works. It would save me some kone for sure. I'll definitely update in the morning. 6/4 It's warmed up to a balmy 44 degrees. My plantsxare in the garage still. Weather sucks this whole week but after this heavy rain it should be perfect weather to transplant these girls. A little to chilly but it will warm up and I need to get this shit done. I'm trying to do to much at once. I need to just out dirt in bags and get them outside. I'm glad I waited until after this craziness. Breaking temp records for high one day then breaking it for low the next can't be good for the plants. I'll update what gets done today. I may mix soil or I might wait until tomorrow. It will let up some then. Plants still look fabulous ๐Ÿ‘Œ 6/5 50 degrees still raining like hell. Rain until Friday. Plants are inside under the onecworking light. Lots of indirect light through the massive windows though. I'm planning on mixing soil today and tomorrow and getting bags and pots half filled. Just trying to break the labor up into manageable pieces. It's probably a good thing I didn't put them in their huge containers before all this rain. UPDATE: MIXED SOIL 1/3 of each (FOX FARM OCEAN FOREST, HAPPY FROG, AND ROOTS ORGANIC 707). I prepared I believe 11 containers for transplant. I need to sanitize two more containers and I'm good. I got a lot done. Might go back over. Set up extra cams too. I'm excited. Talked to my commercial buddy amd he motivated me. No reason my plants can't handle this shit. I've just had massive personal shit going on. Friday is the next GOOD day but these girls might go out earlier. I'm checking the forecast. I'll sanitize the other containers in the morning and fill them. 6/5 Today is usually my watering day but shit still seems heavy so I'm going to hold off. Despite that i need to transplant. I think they're wet enough. I could do it today. Plants are looking good and weather takes a better turn Friday. It's not raining hard though. It's just sprinkle right now. I may transplant some today depending on how things go. I'll keep the diary updated. UPDATE: I went back over with the intent to just mix soil and let it acclimate. I decided to try to transplant one. I grabbed a 10th planet and started to go. I had done a bunch of manual labor already so i wasn't thinking. Of course the fucker was dry and didn't wanna come out ofcthe pot and the root ball pretty much decintigrated in my hand so I'm not sure how that will go. Tried again with the Blueberry Cheese Cake. I thought the roots just might not have been rootbound abdcthat could've been the case. After having another rough transplant I recognized I was tired, all the hard stuff is done and it's gonna keep raining until Friday. I wanted to transplant three and put them outside but with the wind and rain and the difficult transplant I let them sit under the light in the garage in indirect light. I had the doors open for a while. Should be open now but i don't want to have to go back over and shut it. Plus I'm not to keen on getting water on my light. Let's hope for a better day tomorrow. This was the only thing I had going good. Phrple punches are still behind. I've decided I'm oing to light dep ttwo of the plants in the 3 gallon pots. The two shittiest or smallest plants (probably purple punch will be light deped. WENT BACK OVER AT FIVE AND IT APPEARS EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT. WILL HAVE CHECK IN MORNING. Vid won't upload. Tried multiple times. I'll try again tomm. 6/6 Waiting for a doctor's appointment when I should be transplanting buy whatever. Everything is looking really good. Despite me disint9grating the rootball in my hands the two transplants look great! When I get back I'm planning to get some more work done. It's still lightly raining off and on but the door is up. I'm lettingvthe soil mix acclimate a little bit too. Hard labor is mostly done. Now the intricate part. Wish me luck. Not sure if it will be today bit I'm hoping. WENT BACK OVER CAUSE IT WASNT RAINING BUT AS SOON AS I WAS CLOSE IT STARTED POURING SO THE PLANTS ARE UNDER THE ONE WORKING 150HPS AND THE AMBIENT LIGHTING FROM THE WINDOWS. TOMORROW IS TRANSPLANT DAY. I WONT HAVE A VEHICKE SO IT WILL BE TRICKY BUT IM GONNA MAKE IT HAPPEN. Opened doors at 530. Video still didn't upload 6/7 Still raining. It's off and on and a nice rain though. It's 53 degrees at noon. I transplanted two 10th planet's into 20 gallon pots. I transplanted these two a little differently. I put the bags in there final spot I side my cage andctransplanted in the misting rain. The first one came out and seemed to be heavier on the bottom and broke off. I tend to "throw" them in the hole before they collapse. With my anxiety I suck at transplanting. Plus these plants haven't filled the 3 gallon pots with roots yet but i want hem in their final homes and its time to go outside. I transplanted the other two plants indoors and let them have days in the garage with the door open and the light on then protection from the elements at night. I've been doing this for awhile. They would all be outside if the weather wasn't so shitty. This rain is supposed to stop. I'm curious as to what will be the fate of the two plantsci transplanted and left outside. I'm praying and hoping for the best. I also put my back tarp up so I have a wind break between rhe buildings. I stopped working because I didn't want to fuck anything up. Anxiety disorders suck. TOOK A BUNCH OF VIDS BUT THEY WONT UPLOAD. GOES FROM 9% TO 65% BUT ALWA7S TURNS RED "FILE FAILED TO LOAD". I'LL KEEP THE DIARY UPDATED. ESPECIALLY IF I GO BACK OVER. WAS ABLE TO LOAD A COUPLE VIDEOS. I GUESS ITS NOT AS BAD AS I THOUGHT. AT LEAST I HOPE. WENT BACK OVER AT 3 AND CHECKED THINGS OUT. THE TWO REXENT TRANSPLANTS I LEFT OUTSIDE SEEMED TO BE IMPROVING. DESPITE THE FACT I DUMPED A SHIT TON OF SOIL ALL OVER ONE OF THEM. IT SNAPPED A LITTLE BRANCH CLOSEST TO THE SURFACE. ITS STUFF I'LL REMOVE ANYWAY BUT STILL. IM REALLY CROSSING MY FINGWRS AND PRAYING THESE GIROS WILL MAKE IT. With everything i have going on tjis is my respite.IM GOING TO TRY TO SEE WHAT I CAN ACCOmplish TOMORROW. SOME OF THE PURPLE PUNCHES ARENT READY FOR TRANSPLANTING THOUGH. I ALSO ADDED TEO TARPS TO THE CAGECTO COVER THE WIND TOWER BETWEEN THE TWO BUILDINGS. THIS IS GOING TO BE A GOOD YEAR! Shut the door at seven. For some reason the two 10th planet's I transplanted (that fell all over the plant and I thought mightve broke it) look awesome lol. Despite the ridiculous pouring rain. It's going to let up soon and we are do fir some good weather. I'm trying to get everything (that isn't getting light depoed) into the cage. Four transplanted. Ten (I mean 8 more) to go.

Day 9 โ€“ After the Clouds, the Sun Returns Following a couple of cloudy, cooler days with unpredictable UK spring weather, today weโ€™re back in business โ€“ full sunshine bathing the windowsill, and the seedling is clearly appreciating it. On day 9, sheโ€™s showing good upward momentum, with a healthy green tone and a nicely elongated, but not overly stretched, stem. The second set of serrated leaves is beginning to open up, and the seedlingโ€™s posture is strong and upright. This morning I gave her 1 litre of clean, pH-balanced tap water. No added nutrients โ€“ the organic super soil and Biobizz All Mix are handling that just fine for now. Iโ€™m keeping to my minimal-intervention philosophy: no boosters, no chasing perfection โ€“ just observation, clean inputs, and natural sunlight. Observations: Although the last 48 hours brought overcast skies and some temperature swings (unmeasured near the window), the seedling remained stable โ€“ no signs of droop or stress. Todayโ€™s sun is back in full force, with direct light from 07:00 to around 14:00, likely peaking again at ~1350 ฮผmol/mยฒ/s. Still no supplemental light or artificial environment. Everything remains natural and low-effort. Thoughts Moving Forward: Itโ€™s always interesting to see how a young autoflower responds to dips in light and ambient temperature โ€“ they donโ€™t have time to waste, and yet this one seems to have taken the brief grey spell in stride. Looking ahead, if the weather holds steady, we should start to see noticeable structural development over the next few days. Sheโ€™s holding up well. Calm, steady progress โ€“ just the way I like it. Day 11 โ€“ Holding Strong Indoors While the Outdoors Waits. Here we are on Day 11, and the little CBD Auto 20:1 continues to develop steadily on the sunny windowsill. The first set of true leaves is broadening nicely, and the new growth in the centre is coming in with good symmetry and colour. Stem strength is improving as well, holding the plant upright with no signs of stretching or leaning โ€“ exactly what I like to see at this stage. Iโ€™m continuing to water only with clean, pH-balanced tap water, no additives, no boosters. Just letting the super soil mix and Biobizz All Mix do their thing. This โ€œless is moreโ€ approach seems to be paying off so far. Weather notes: The past few days have been moderately sunny, with occasional clouds, but the windowsill stays consistently warm โ€“ definitely warm enough to encourage strong vegetative growth. Outdoors, however, itโ€™s a different story: cold air, unpredictable swings, andโ€ฆ snails. Lots of snails. This seedling wouldnโ€™t last a night outside right now โ€“ sheโ€™d be a gourmet treat for any passing mollusc. For now, she stays safe behind glass, soaking up the sun from dawn until early afternoon (~07:00โ€“14:00), and building up strength for the future move outdoors โ€“ once the weather is right and the risks are low. Final thoughts for today: Thereโ€™s something satisfying about watching a seedling thrive under low-tech, natural conditions. No grow tents, no supplemental lights โ€“ just sunlight, soil, and simple attention. Sheโ€™s doing well, and the coming week should bring the next round of leaf growth and even more structure. Slow, steady, and sun-fed โ€“ exactly how I imagined this grow would go. Day 14 โ€“ Two Weeks Strong & Natural Salty Signs Two weeks in, and the CBD Auto 20:1 is holding her own beautifully. After a slow and steady start on the windowsill, sheโ€™s now clearly entering a more active vegetative phase. The leaves are spreading wide, looking rich and healthy in colour, with that classic Fast Buds symmetry already taking shape. Stem structure is upright and solid, with no signs of stretching, which tells me sheโ€™s perfectly aligned with the available sunlight hours. Watering & Environment Update: She continues to receive pH-balanced, clean tap water only, and the pot remains well-drained and breathable thanks to the fabric construction. Today, I noticed white patches on the fabric pot โ€“ a common and harmless sign of mineral salt deposits. This occurs when moisture evaporates through the fabric, leaving behind minerals from the water (mainly calcium and magnesium). Itโ€™s cosmetic only and doesnโ€™t affect the plant or roots in any negative way. Light Conditions: After a few low-light days earlier this week (we recorded a light intensity drop down to ~30 ฮผmol/mยฒ/s during heavy cloud cover), today brought back that sweet UK sunshine. The plant is once again receiving its reliable 07:00โ€“14:00 window of direct sun, which weโ€™ve measured previously around 1350 ฮผmol/mยฒ/s at peak โ€“ ideal for a low-input indoor approach. Final Thoughts: Sheโ€™s looking compact, balanced, and ready to stretch. No signs of stress, deficiency, or pest issues โ€“ and Iโ€™m really enjoying observing how this plant responds to minimal intervention in a realistic environment. Not rushing anything, not chasing perfection โ€“ just letting nature and a well-prepped soil mix lead the way. Next week should be an exciting one!

This past week has been a blast! After getting these ladies nutrition straightened out, they are thriving!๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š I gave defoliated wayyy more than what I see other growers traditionally doing. After the "3rd and final haircut" I defoliated two more times ๐Ÿ˜… Thank you the GD community for the support and resources along the way ๐Ÿ™ My only concern now is the tent actually becoming too crowded.๐Ÿ˜†. Other then that I am thinking it should be smooth sailing these next 6 weeks or so. ๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿดโ€โ˜ ๏ธ Happy Growing! ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’š
