Starting out the fourth week of flower well. All plants are forming resin on their sugar leaves and starting to smell fruity. Upped nutrient dosage to 1400 ppm truncheon. Still watering 2l daily. Might need another round of defoliation before the end of flower, they recovered very well from the last time.. Almost too well..

She seems to thrive in the new soil, I'm checking her regularly because of the darker ridged leaves, could I have overdone the bloodmeal content? It should not have overfeeding effects with organic super soil. But we'll see. The FIM seems to have taken hold with her and today I started training, although it is more main-lining. For this, I just used some microwaved bamboo from the garden. Now we go towards flowering and I'm getting more excited after the first few weeks were a bit sad. Some of you might have seen my super soil recipe in my other grow, the Orange Hill Special, if you didn't, check it out here in the images! I designed it out of frustration that products like Fox Farms etc are not readily available in Europe. Those who saw my Gelato Monstercop grow, know that soil was pretty good, that soil became the base for this recipe, amended with some organic precursors to make it less dependent on feeding and after amending. I would recommend amending some before flowering starts without the bloodmeal. Hope you can use it!! Thank you very much for checking me out again this week! Hapy growing and big hug BioBuds and Sunshine

Gracias al equipo de Sweet Seeds, Marshydro, XpertNutrients y Trolmaster sin ellos esto no sería posible. 💐🍁 Sweet Mandarine Zkittlez F1 FV : Genética feminizada y fotodependiente de floración ultrarrápida. Primera generación filial (F1) resultante del cruce entre un clon élite de Zkittlez (muy potente y resinoso, con un marcado aroma tipo Sour Diesel cítrico, entre naranja y mandarina) y nuestra Sweet Mimosa XL Auto (SWS94) que también tiene tonos aromáticos cítricos entre naranja y mandarina. El resultado del cruce es una vigorosa variedad híbrida fotodependiente muy resinosa, potente y aromática. El aroma de esta variedad es delicioso, con tonos Sour Diesel muy especiados, tonos de naranja y mango, fondo amaderado y lejanas pinceladas frescas como de pino o hierba recién cortada. Algunos individuos pueden mostrar flores y hojas con tonos púrpuras y rojizos al final de la floración. El efecto es enérgico, alegre y estimulante de la concentración y la creatividad. 💡TS-3000 + TS-1000: se usaran dos de las lámparas de la serie TS de Marshydro, para cubrir todas las necesidades de las plantas durante el ciclo de cultivo, uso las dos lámparas en floracion para llegar a toda la carpa de 1.50 x 1.50 x 1.80. https://marshydro.eu/products/mars-hydro-ts-3000-led-grow-light/ 🏠 : Marshydro 1.50 x 1.50 x 1.80, carpa 100% estanca con ventanas laterales para llegar a todos los lugares durante el grow https://marshydro.eu/products/diy-150x150x200cm-grow-tent-kit 🌬️💨 Marshydro 6inch + filtro carbon para evitar olores indeseables. https://marshydro.eu/products/ifresh-smart-6inch-filter-kits/ 💻 Trolmaster Tent-X TCS-1 como controlador de luz, optimiza tu cultivo con la última tecnología del mercado, desde donde puedes controlar todos los parametros. https://www.trolmaster.com/Products/Details/TCS-1 📆 Semana 2: Fantástica semana, estan creciendo de una forma espectacular gracias a la ayuda de @marshydro, @xpertnutrients y @trolmaster.

Howdy growfessors 👽, the outdoors ladies are growing nicely. Not much to say except that now that the last 4 days of rain are done and the sun is shining, I expect these ladies will take a jump in size/growth.

Just a little defoliation this week, not much else. The main cola is getting nice and big and it’s very dense. The rest of the coals are not very big but this plant has got little buds growing all over the place. I think this plant still has a couple of weeks to go but will have to wait and see, the pistils are still pretty white. This is my first time growing so i don’t have anything to compare this small size to, might be genetics or it might be that I stunted this early on by not watering from the bottom or wrong water ph or what have you.

Should I trim more or let the ladies go? Week by week I guess? 😎

Hola y gracias por pasarte a ver mi diario. Cuando compré esta semilla buscaba una variedad de rápida floración y con toques a naranja para completar mi cultivo de exterior. La planta creció sin ningún problema excepto alguna carencia que presentó antes de tiempo, especialmente de nitrógeno. Al ser un cultivo 100% orgánico y únicamente con riegos de agua del grifo sin añadir abonos líquidos era esperable, aunque el resultado final me deja muy satisfecho. Además, el hecho de añadir todos los nutrientes al sustrato me ha permitido facilitar la tarea del riego y no tener que realizar el lavado de raíces. La planta se desarrolló en una maceta de 20L y ha producido 90g de cogollos secos, bastante duros y con una relación flores/hojas bastante buena. El olor de las flores húmedas era bastante intenso y con matices dulces y cítricos. Respecto a plagas y enfermedades ha sido muy resistente, no he apreciado signos de araña roja, pulgón ni trips gracias al aporte de harina de Neem en el sustrato. Tampoco he sufrido el temido y habitual ataque de las orugas (ni la oruga de las hojas ni la del cogollo) gracias a las pulverizaciones en las fechas clave con Bacillus Thuringiensis. Tampoco se ha visto afectada por el Oídio que normalmente aparece al final de la floración en la zona donde vivo, tampoco botrytis pese a ser cogollos densos y llenos de resina, por lo que la pastilla de Micorrizas y Trichodermas ha funcionado a la perfección, no sólo reforzando el sistema radicular sino también frente a los hongos invasores. El clima también me ha acompañado este año, vivo en una zona cálida donde la temperatura suele ser óptima para el cultivo de exterior de cannabis, el mes de mayo llovió algún día de forma agradable, junio, julio y agosto fueron especialmente secos, solo llovió un par de noches a finales de agosto, y septiembre también ha sido muy respetuoso lloviendo solo 2 veces. Por todo esto, siendo la primera vez que elaboro un supersoil, estoy seguro que para la temporada 2022 repetiré el sistema, haciendo algunos ajustes a la mezcla para evitar estas carencias que he comentado. Quiero agradecer a Growdiaries.com la herramienta que nos brinda a los cultivadores (en mi caso cultivador clandestino) para poder realizar el seguimiento de nuestros cultivos y como, en mi caso particular, ha hecho que mi motivación y trabajo hayan sido una constante semana tras semana, por lo que ha influido directamente en el buen resultado final de la cosecha. También agradecer a todo el que pasó por aquí durante el seguimiento ya que me dieron el apoyo necesario para mejorar en mi cultivo. Un saludo. Ferinky

Spotted some spider mites again :(

11/29 Start week 4 still solidly in veg Tighten training daily . Still on same feed of 800ppm Water filter be in Monday-ish and so I can drop the tap water TDS so to raise the nuet level. 12/1 Continuing to get hang of coco, the runoff in particular will be worked on. Happy with it 12/2 Seeing the first signs of flower so beginning the intro of bloom nuets. dropped the CT A&B Grow to 9ml/gal adding 1 ml/gal Bloom A&B. Will increase the bloom over the next week to full. 12/5 Into the flowering tent still on half grow half bloom nuets 800ppm for a while. Changed feeding to once per day 1 qt(liter) with @ one cup runoff each (25%) New camera learning how to use it

A good week overall! Started out a bit rough, as I noticed some yellowing on the oldest leaves. Unclear exactly what the issue is/was. I'm using soil with organic fertilizers, so over-nutrient seems unlikely to me (very little readily available nutrients, all slow-release, only two waterings up to that point). But some folks on different forums think it may be nutrient burn. Alternatively, it could just be lack of light on these leaves (they are very shaded) and touching the soil. Regardless, while researching I noticed that my humidity was way down, hovering nearing 35%. The tent is in a dehumidified basement so this makes sense. Based on VPD charts this seemed non-ideal for the plant, so I added a small humidifier and a RH PID controller. Humidity stays around 55-60% now, which is a nice compromise between keeping humidity up in the tent and not fihgting the basement dehumidifier too much. I also drilled some holes in the container to help air out the soil faster... a DIY janky airpot :) Throughout the rest of the week, LST ties were adjusted and heavily obscured leaves were pruned off. I also started pruning off bud sites that were pointing downwards, in an effort to reduce clutter and wasted resources. All in all, she's looking pretty good. I'll probably flip in the next week or so. I would love to give it some more time to veg, but have a schedule I need to keep later this fall. This strain supposedly flowers in 6-7 weeks, so we'll see :)

Following RQS auto guide : https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-how-to-grow-autoflowering-cannabis-n83 WEEK 2: LATE SEEDLING STAGE #8 22.3. - #14 28.3. #8 22.3. - Canna PH- grow (and bloom) arrived today, mixed 6ml to 3liters and poured around the pots (hoping to get hum. up also) will see what it does and if the PH starts going down from the 7+ i can start adding smaller amounts. -Moved around the LEDlights (those have 'bout 2000LUX at plant level) so they are more along the tent walls. -Moved temp meter from lamp to plant levet (have now confirmed the lamps wont heat up too much under current air flow so its safe to stop monitoring heat source temps. -Removed the "glass" from 3in1 meter and the tape from the front, tested the luxes, still at few hundred, so i would guess the LUX meter in that cheap meter is BS!. Now the PH is way more visible in the camera when there is no screen reflection etc. Added pics of the luxes from android app, will receive the "real"meter possbl this week. -When i had tent door open and did the stuff mentioned above the temp dropped to about 13degrees, but now we are already back up at 23'c at plant level, so seems stat the current exh-fan rotation is good. -Plants emself have taken some sort of an growth spur 'cause just few days ago they seemed like they are not growing at all, and ow i can really see the difference and they are making next set of leafes, might be that the temps risen so they enjoy em self now way more - forgot to take new pics from the plants emself so will juts update pics from cam for now , at least there's been some change again. -Will try to remember take proper pics of the plants next time i visit the tent physically -Should remember to buy the "LST-wire" for training, would be good time to buy some eastern decorations fluffy wires. #9 23.3. -Noticed that the timelapse camera is getting thrown around as well as one LEDpanel, so went and tied em up to tent posts. -Added 1,5liters of water that had 6ml of PH- canna in it, and poured in to "middle corner" of every pot. -Tent was way more warm and moist inside then ever before, which is a good thing, im sure after the latest added water im getting there. -Ordered a RAM humidifier. And some nutes pack from bio-grow. -Updated "week2 timelapse" (Check 1st week for its timelapse) -Note to self: Take those damn "camera quality" plant pictures, you are supposed to...- #10 24.3. -Started small form of LST -Guess who forgot to take the closeup pictures... again... Well better luck next time :D -Added 5liter RAM humidifier, at lowest possible setting, so that the water would last longest -Added 1,5liters of water with BioBizz nutes that came today in mail, Alg-A-Mic, Root-Juice and Top-Max. -Added ScrOG, but obviously its now just tested that it fits and its hanging at the tent side. -Had to move the Fast Eddy a bit and make a "stand" for the humidifier. -Moved the other LED (2300lux) a bit further up, will have more effect when plants grow, and those can be had as a xtra lights. -Moved some wires around their sockets to get better fit for all connectors. -Adjusted the camera directions -Turned both fans to level 1 of 2 -exhaust fan still at about 50% timer on/off, that must been what caused the "wobbly"pictures in timelapse as the tent gained more vacuum inside which must have drawn in the walls a bit. #11 25.3. -Not sure if i did anything #12 26.3. -Water run out from humidifier -Added a pic of the day -Luxmeter arrived, didn't had time to install it yet, but tested and found working. #13 27.3. -Added Hydrometer -Filled humidifier -Poured 1liter of water with nutes -Added/moved LST's -Finally remembered to take the close up pics of the plants! wohoo. -After following the hums i think i might add exhaust flow as its also warmer outside so the tent can now take it #14 28.3. -Last day of #2 week -Did nothing, just watched em grow. -Water run out of hum. hum went from 65% to 45%

A los diez dias áprox. empezaron a mostrar los primeros pistilos. Esta semana hubo que ponerles ya los calefactores para mirar de que no baje mucho la temperatura cuando se apaga la luz.

Ztrawberriez growing fast ⏩ Nice easy week with a thunderstorm👍 Time for ztrawberriez to get her first dose of nutirent ... Bloom a bloom b 1ml each per litter.

Love using Grow Diaries and the community of people I have met and chatted with along the way ❤️🇨🇦👊 I’ve “grown” so much over the past year from the advice and journals posted! Thanks Growmie’s! 👊❤️

Did some defoliation of the lowers. Been just dunking this lady in the water bucket daily. Have a slight deficiency going, but will wait and see since it’s the start of flower

Week 11! Day 77. Gotta be nearing the final lap now. Old fan leaves are turning yellow & pistils are turning brown. I did a few trial runs of "ice flushing" but with just one ice cube at a time last week lol. Maybe 2-3 cubes per day. Figured it'd help imitate colder conditions outdoors if nothing else. Still doing the slow, small waterings as she definitely prefers them to dumping a whole bottle-and-a-half in there at once. The smell is more noticeable than before, but still not where you'd expect for the size & maturity. My smaller plants both smelled stronger, and MUCH earlier. One of them was a Solo cup grow all the way to the end & neither exceeded a paltry 4.3 grams dry. (Maybe I've just had COVID one too many times since then but this plant is as odor-free as can be). Frost level is moderate compared to popular strains & bud sites are abundant which is my main concern. I don't smoke weed for the taste or smell, though I know terps play a role in the final effects. This girl couldn't smell any LESS like Skittles, berries or chocolate if it tried, leaning much farther in the skunky/pungent direction. Planning to do a wet trim & staggered harvest, cutting the top into 3 sections 24 hours apart to hopefully avoid/reduce stress. Then I'll leave the bottom part to grow another week or so. With a plant this tall and lanky, there is a real difference in maturity of buds. Plus my lights are weak af. Not sure how I'll get the temps down in the 60-70 degree range for for TWO separate drying periods, but we'll try. (I'm cold-natured & would have to run the AC 24/7 since it's still warm & muggy here, and that gets expensive. But I'll also have my ceiling & oscillating fans, some baking soda to absorb moisture & windows to open on cool nights. Gotta keep the temp AND humidity in the right range! I looked at her the morning after applying a small amount of potassium humates & noticed a bunch of brown rusty spots on the upper sugar leaves. So I cut them off. Would be curious to know what it most likely is though. Also found a dead bug on her. Little black thing with wings... looks like he died happy lol. 10/29/25: Ice flush + stem-splitting initiated. Next is 24 hours of light before adding more ice (half as much, if that) plus 36 hours in the dark before (partial) harvest. Landlord scare this morning had me scrambling to hide everything! Hence the bent cola on top--she wore the black garbage bag "hat" again lol. No bottle/chemical nutes so this isn't technically a "flush" in every sense... more of an end-of-life stressor/imitation of outdoor conditions (if we weren't frying due to climate change, heh). Hoping this staggered harvest thing works out. I wouldn't likely be doing it if not for the time crunch & fact that I need to whittle this plant down to a more manageable size. Next few days should be eventful, check back. 😉
