8/23 - End of Week 3. Going to start some top feeding at like half strength for the Fox Farm Soil schedule in next few days. Drinking well and consistently from the self-watering bases. Bugs seem to be under control but will probably add some bits to the bases to make sure the gnats don't resurface. Stalk is strong and looking good and a good amount of new growth after taking some fan leaves off yesterday to "top". CO2 levels looking a little better, opened another vent in the tent. 8/22 - Adjusted light down to 80% after getting a lux meter and checking the intensity. Soil PH is slighly acidic at 6.1. Got some phUp and phDown but haven't adjusted yet. Trimmed top 4 fan leaves to stall out the top stalk and open up the bottom branches a bit. Added a mushroom exhale bag to increase co2 levels, were sitting around 500 ppm before I added. 8/21 - Still drying out the self-watering base a bit, will add water today. Sides of fabric pot still a bit wet to the touch but I think that's just the active wicking going on. Thought the initial canoe'ing leaves were from overwatering when overfilling the self-watering base but now I think it has more to do w/ some shock from the thrips and 24 hour light, or perhaps a bit of sunburn from being sprayed w/ the neem oil / bug killer. 8/16 - Had to fight off some thrips and still dialing in the tent conditions. Might be a little overwatered currently.

Trying flawless finish for the first time, hoping it will help with this rushed flowering stage. Really unfortunate to have to cut this one short, but some things in life are out of our control... Anyway, harvest is currently curing. Check out the results and leave a like/comment cos I'm always looking for constructive criticism! Lets gooo

Hey folks. The first set of uploads for this week was taken on Wednesday. Super heavy defoilation done. Lots of excess growth under the main conopy so I lollipoped them. In total between the 4 plants I estimate about a 1lb worth of leaves! She's a bushy plant so I got to keep her in check. Regular watering of 40mL of molassas to 19L of dechlorinated h2o. Also did a bit of lst with wires, binder slips n the 3d printed clips you see in the photos. Work great and its opening up the canopy wide. I can already count more than 15+ potential main cola sites. Not sure how much for i can make befor flowing which starts mid August for us. I may have to starting thinking about when to apply our second round of top dress. I may start to feed her with higher ratios of the bloom amendments. Also a note. Watering with molasses is a new thing for me and it seems to work wonders with a organic grow since you are feeding the microbiology which in turns feeds the plant roots with co2 and organic ions. Pretty cool to see the plant respond well to the carbs added via watering. Another note to mention is I'm starting to notice some gnats hanging around the topsoil. I do belive the molasses sugars are attracting the critter which is bad! I have been combating them by spraying thr topsoil with neem oil. 1tbs per quart of warm water and 10 drops of non-posphate dish soap to act as a wetting agent. (Helps the neem oil dissolve into the water). I have been applying the solution to the top soil every 3-4 days and have notice a significant decrease in gnats flying around and the plant doesn't seem to mind it at all. I'm just hoping it helps kill the gnat worms if they did lay any eggs into the soil. Hope you guys enjoy this one.

this is week 5. will make fem pollen from this genetics and seeds. crossing with the queen to make AU79. both bridals very strong. this is very very special, already showing me extreme trics in veg. will veg max time 15-20 weeks. I had issues with neglecting my ph, too nigh causing k issues, not phing down, added a few drops b+ nutrient and will be good with my ph. My rh lowest was 23%, so added more red romaine lettuce seeds, dill to grow so I am not wasting my light. It is dimmed to 60% only CW diodes on, NW IR R UVA are off. Only controlling cool white diodes for veg. More red longer wavelengths light for flower, along with uv. Everything is good, extremly positive with this grow! 2 queens on the right topped

This ones really starting to swell. I'm blown away by the one in fox farm soil but the one in the coast of maine sadly is not as happy. I've been top dressing with worm castings to the deficient one. I'm excited by the frosty trichomes beginning to form on the larger healthier plant of the two. At this point I'd say it wasn't a different pheno but maybe a deficiency. The ladies are gonna finish strong. Check back next week to see just how fast she buds & remember its 4:20 somewhere!!!!

Week 3 of flowering is in the books for the Auto Gelato girl from Fast Buds Genetics <3 ... this week I did some minor cleanup with dying leaves, and the lower branches that were being blocked out by the top colas. This girl has recovered exceptionally well after being supercropped the previous week, so excited to see how she'll continue to grow and stack up in the coming weeks! Considering I snapped the stalk while cropping, I was really surprised to see just how well the wound healed up over the week. These plants are awesome! Anyway, be sure to check back next week for more updates! Happy growing 💪

This was a fun first week. All 12 plants showed good growth. I had to support to three of the plants to ensure they didn't bend over. It was nothing serious, but I thought it was a prudent move. I'm not seeing any deformed leaves. All 12 are showing a nice uniform growth. Some are further along than others, but I attribute that to different germination dates; some are just a day or two older than their siblings. I'm being careful not to overwater them. When I did water them, I added a little Bloom Roots and Dyna Gro KLN. That should promote good root development. It was fun watching these plants griw strong during their first week of life! I didn't have any problems, and I can't wait to see how they progress.

Day 64: Her buds are filling out. Still no trichomes and very little smell, but she seems happy and will probably just take her time to develop her buds. Reducing the watering frequency to give her some drought stress. Day 66: Trichome production slowly starts.

Day 29: Low VPD due to shitty weather....... about 0.8 kPa at 23C. Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.9; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 30: Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.8; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 31: Girls happy - nothin' to bend or weave today. Still dark green - no signs of overfeeding in new foliage. Drain (average): pH 5.9; EC 2.7 Roots keep pentrating the pots. 👍 Day 32: Did a little defoliation - just cut a few odd lookin' fanleafs and some smaller foliage at the bottom of the stem. 65g total. Further i keep opening the canopy by moving some shoots to the next square of the net Still watering daily. Plant 3 is way thirstier and bigger than the others. Plant 2 spills out the largest amounts of drain...... but she's not far behind them other girls. Had to crank up the vent to get humidity out..... i'll keep defoliating carefully - that'll help it ;-) Day 33 & 34: Now they really wanna get tall...... since they so bushy, it's a bit tricky to feed them to the 'right' next square in the net....... LST-wise i have to admit, it would have been better to 'open' the canopy by binding the shoots down, instead of just flatten it out, by supercropping. Though it produces a lot of growth, it's kind of a chaos - hard to organize and almost impossible to open up for more light. Huge fanleafs pushing out everywhere. Plenty of foliage in the lower canopy - it's a mess somehow😶 Numbers in the drain are fine now (about 6.5; 1.2) so i'll start feeding nutrients again. Day 35: Fed nutrients - PH 6.4; EC 1.1 Drain (avg.): pH 6.3; EC 1.8 i'm taking out some leafs of different sizes - just a few at a day...... so there will be a bit more light and air over time...... Plans for week 6: - Organize canopy/scrog - carefully take leafs out - keep checking for nutrient levels

A-Day 60, B&C Day 56 A is fattening up! She never did stretch, but then again I had her tied and splayed pretty far out. She has been thirsty, I have been feeding a dose close to 1000 ppm every other feed which has been every other day for her. During the lower feeds, ppm has been around 400. Her tricomes are mostly clear, with some cloudy starting to show. She still has a couple of weeks to go. B- is going to be a producer! She has so many tips and they are all fattening and developing at about the same rate, she is going to be a beast! Did a defoliation on her, she is appreciating the extra light penetration 😎💨 C- Has stretched up and out! If she stacks as tight as the other two, she will probably be the one with the most weight. Her branches are the tallest and reaching up at least 4-6 inches past both her sisters. I tied her down lightly to allow light to get through, we’ll see how she goes.

Plants reacted very nice to being in a controlled environment. Giving them more time to see if a longer veg will give bigger buds. Day 32 defoliated for the first time(Should have LST’d same day. I will still be heavy on the lollipopping Burned the White wedding. The other cultivars didnt burn. All plants are getting hut with plain ph water….and silicate, Day 34 Stalks were already to dense to LST. Defoliation went well Topped the main stalks(about 4 per plant). Tis was my second time topping this grow. I topped this time so that i can control stretch. They need one more week so they can rebound from the stress before i flip to flower on day 42 Noticed that 20klux+ was stressing my plants. I brought it down to 10-18klux I have failed to use tricantonol or any SST yet. These are usually crucial parts of the grow. I wonder whats going to happen

Today I harvested after about 24 hours with lights turned on. The smell is strong lemon with a hint of mint :) I cant wait to taste her when its dry, and in my opinion it smells and looks good :) Had some problems with temperature, but with some gear improvements I think I got the right solution for it for next time. As this is my first try doing this im pretty happy, but ofcourse there is room for improvements :) Thanks to everyone for checking in on my diary and the likes! :) Happy growing and peace 🌲✌️ Total dry weight - 338grams 🌲

Welcome to week 9 of my grow diary. In the middle of the week, I decided to pull the four main shoots apart using plant wire and binder clips, as the side shoots in the middle weren't getting enough light. Fortunately I couldn't find any more mildew. The weather continues to be great. See you next week!
