Week 5 (11/30 - 12/6): Things are getting excitingggggggg!! I had to get some gloves because the buds are getting sticky -icky -ickyyyyy. I mean over these two weeks you wouldn't even recognize this tent. The flowers have really packed on some size and the smell is increasing by the day. It feels like we are coasting and just need to keep things watered at this point, but we have our lights up as high as they can go, so we are hoping we don't get too much more of a stretch from the plants. Next week will be our last topdress for these plants with our Gaia Green 2-8-4, and from there we will have about 4/6 more waterings with our terp tea and we will be just about done with our feeding schedule. We are considering another layer of trellis, and we had to upgrade our PH pen AGAIN.. so to all new growers, don't waist the money, get the Blue Lab from the start and take good care of it. We learned our lesson with $20. Otherwise, I don't have much to say other than stand by for some big ole harvests coming your way. Check out our before and after pics!

Mandarin XL auto just had a solution change today. She looks like she is starting to bulk. She was looking kinda pail and discolored. She was due for a solution change. So hopefully she takes to it well and puts on a lot of weight. Everything has been going well, and nothing more to report. Thank you Gen1:11, Medic Grow, and Ganja Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Some light mania has me itching for projects. I have tiny pots, a bunch of free seeds and no space. Could I grow them by the window under a desk lamp? I might be able to tuck them into the tent if they actually grow for me. I want to try out some LST for cute bonsai-style trees. I’m not confident that I will have much success but this is purely a learning experiment. Let’s see how much I can abuse these autos 😅 - Sept 22 AM: Popped 3 Cookie Dog autoflower seeds into a glass of bottled spring water for a pre-soak of 14 hours. - Sept 22 PM: Put the seeds into folded paper towel, ceramic plate, more bottled spring water, uncovered in warm room. - Sept 23 AM: One seed has started to pop after only 10 hours! - Sept 23 PM: The seeds have all cracked but haven’t grown tap roots yet. I planted the 3 seeds into various small pots to finish germinating in seeding mix instead so I would stop checking on them in the paper 🙃 - Sept 24: nothing happening above ground. They are in the tent with lights 24/0 so I covered them with larger pots to give some darkness. Placed pots on a heating mat. - Sept 25 AM: the 2 seeds in the smallest pots have emerged! The were touching the plastic wrap when I checked on them so I hope they are ok. - Sept 27 PM: 1st seedling doing good, 2nd seedling still has her seed leaves closed so I’m misting her, and 3rd.. I accidentally flipped her pot over. She’s gone. First Impressions: Seeds germinated in soil after 36 hours, 72 hours from when I first left them to pre-soak and let the seeds crack in paper towel 24 hours.. that was 24-48 hours faster than the other test groups that used paper towel method until tap root formed and waiting for the germinated seed to emerge.. I might skip waiting for a tap root in paper towel going forward but I do like knowing the seed is viable before putting in soil so I know if it doesn’t grow it was something I did wrong. End of week thoughts.. Well.. I fucked around with these seeds too much, exposed the roots to light, let them almost dry out, dropped them, had the temps too low, the heating mat too hot, kicked out over.. 😅😅 I didn’t really give them a chance and yet still somehow I got 2 contenders in pint sized pots 🤷‍♀️the experiment continues..

Endlich wieder Aktuell Growmies!!!! 💚💚💚 2 Monate aka 8 Wochen permanent Outdoor Zombie Kush 🧟‍♂️💜(Purpel Pheno) von den Krumme-Gurken als Test Steckling bekommen am 25.4 mit ca.2 Wochen. Durch die Beschäftigung mit Erde,Bodenleben,Pilze und Mikroorganismen führte zu der Frage kann ich eine nach schema mineralisch gedüngte Pflanze umstellen auf organischen Dünger samt Bodenleben das den Dünger auch verfügbar machen kann?! Da der COMPO BIO NATURDÜNGER MIT GUANO NPK Werte 7+4+5 plus Magnesium und Calcium besitzt und man laut Verpackung damit das Bodenleben verbessert und Mikroorganismen fördert so wie Wochen lange stabile Versorgung für die Pflanze weshalb ich nur 2 EL Guano am Rand verteilt habe da in ca 3-4 Wochen die Blüte anfängt und sie in den ersten 2 Wochen nicht direkt Blüte Dünger brauchen. Ich bräuchte ein Blüte Guano Dünger oder sowas ähnliches(bitte Vorschläge)ansonsten würde ich sie ab der Blüte wieder mineralisch Düngen. Da mein Leitungswasser laut Werten zu wenig Calcium hat was ich auch schon festgestellt habe habe ich mir Canna Mono Calcium und Algenkalk gekauft. Aber ich würde sagen die Pflanze ist Top fit und Das nur mit Wasser. Habe mir aber zum testen das BioCanna 3 Pflanzen Set mit Vega,Flores und Bio Rhizotonic geholt das ich eine organische Option habe und Vergleich. ^^ Kurze persönliche Anmerkung als ADHD/Schmerzpatient mit Opiat und Methylphenidat: So gerne ich GD benutze oder auch Social Media um ein Teil der Community zu sein. Ist es wenn man nur 1 Daumen und Hand benutzen kann um zu schreiben und Fotos machen extrem anstrengend so dass es Spaß macht da es mich fordert motorisch mit Händen zu arbeiten. Durch Morbus Sudeck im linken Daumen bis Zeige Finger Bereich alles versteift und unbeweglich die zerstörten nerven einer vorherigen Kapaltunnel-Op tut ihr übrigens in Kombination mit ADHS führt es zu Reiz Überflutung wo mich meine Pflanzen am besten wieder Erden und ohne Rauchen runter holen. Oder ich das Medikament Pregabalin unter Ärztlicher Aufsicht absetzen und mit Cannabis aus eigenem Anbau und Depot Spritze wieder Lebensqualität habe! Der Unfall,OP, 9 Wochen Intensiv Station sind 3 Jahre her und fast 1 Jahr hier auf GROWDIARIES was die beste eigen Therapie ist für mich besonders dank der Menschen und die gemeinsame Leidenschaft hier auf Growdiaries!

Sensi skunk! Fem not auto! Few other bcn critical fem seeds planted around 3 weeks after the sensi seeds! Any signs that they actually female? First time growing! Some have been topped and lst tried! Also removed a few fan leafs from the bottom! Feeding every two days one hour after lights come on! Main 3 big plants are about 42 days old since germination so I put them into flowering 8 days ago! Not sure if it was too early! When lights go of I have a oil heater that keeps the temperature at the same level 25-29 degrees is this correct? I’m currently using canna coco a and b nutrients with cal mag my mix is 40 ml of canna a 40ml canna b 40ml cal mag mixed in to tap water 10 litres! I’ve feed them this mix since they were two weeks old! Recently feeding 1.8 litres every other day as stated above! Should I be adding flower nutes now? Up the feeding level? Few leafs look like there getting a few brown spots! Do I need to increase cal mag help needed as come this far and don’t wanna mess things up as cost me a fortune so far cheers

Brought to you by Mars Hydro. Grow on Earth, Grow with Mars 🚀🚀 Welcome back. One week into bloom and things are going great (hope I didn’t jinx it…I’ll prolly get thrips or some shit now). Seed soaked Dec 1 Flipped Feb 9 All pics and video taken Feb 16 Forget manifolding :P fluxing is where it’s at. One plant isn’t so bad, two or more plants would be too much work cuz I’m just lazy. Would’ve vegged a lil longer but dunno if the 10gallon pot can take a 10+ week veg….I was supposed to have two plants but one was a male so I tossed it. I think I may just grow one monster plant in a 15 gallon pot for my next run. Lights are running at 95% and 6” away…she’s drinking a lot, been watering 2 gallons every 48hrs the past 2-3 weeks and I’m feeding hard. That’s all for now. Thanks for stopping by and for the love and support. Happy gardening 🌱🌱

Day 64 🌤️🌥️☁️☁️ 11-19 degrees and the humidity is around 65%. I started into the tenth week with an intense check of the main buds. Some of the trichomes are milky but the most are still clear. Maybe I‘m wrong. Some days ago I could spot some amber trichomes but the flowers expanded and it‘s not possible to find anymore amber ones. Watered 500ml pure rainwater. Day 65 🌤️☁️🌥️☁️ Today Tropicana needs a rest. She just want to sit and do nothing except waiting for sunshine warming her heart. In the evening she asked for water, potting soil lost enough weight. 600ml with 60ml light fermented flower and herb tee. ~100 ml drainage with PH 6,2. In the main flower it was possible to find a small amount of amber trichomes. Day 66 🌤️⛅️🌤️🌤️ 10-21 degrees, humidity 45-65%. This morning I understood, that Tropicana was not thirsty yesterday, she need to breath oxygen with her roots to feel happy. The beautiful smell is way not so intense since last night. I missed the strong smell when I opened the door to our balcony in the early morning. So no watering yesterday would be better. And my banana peel tee is not free of nitrogen, same with the herb and flower tee. Less is more will be written in my diary in the next days (weeks). Watching Trichome TV: I see more amber and I see that she needs more time after all this stress which I made for her. She told me that she is not only sick of water, she told me, that she hate to be moved all the time, too. Every move from A to B she would loose tiny roots and this would stress her a lot. When I checked the moisture I spotted too many of this root fly castings. Their mamas and papas had their orgie about a week ago and now they are eating the mulch layer roots as if there will be no morning. This is not Tropicanas day. But the sun is shining and tomorrow will be another day. Hopefully with a nose full of this tasty fruity and woody citrus smell. Day 67 🌧️☁️☁️☁️ 13-19 degrees, humidity 42-80%. This morning the smell was more intensive like yesterday but still not like before. The leafs show the first signs of fading and I‘m very nervous. This night will fall a lot of rain for several hours. But a part of our balcony is canopied, so Tropicana will be a little bit protected by me this night. I don‘t want to make another mistake, so I use this possibility. Anyway the plants are always wet after a strong rain, it‘s just a little canopy, but not soaked with water. Day 68 🌧️☁️⛅️🌤️ 15-21 degrees and the humidity is 74-85%. Tropicana feels better. The smell this morning was much more intensive then the days before. Day 69 ⛅️🌤️🌥️☁️ 15-22 degrees, humidity 46-89%. Tropicanas flowers are swelling and while she is maturing her smell is getting more intense and complex. Right now mandarin and an earthy woody smell, sometimes even a bit sour like a mixture of pineapple and lime juice. It‘s possible to find new colors in the flowers. There’s purple and pink, orange and ocher brown appeared. Tropicanas main flower looks like the harvest time is near, but the trichomes are still clear and just started to get milky. Anyway she is incredible fast, especially if to remember the extrem conditions with minimal temperature around ten degrees in the early mornings. Day 70 🌧️☁️☁️🌧️ 17-23 degrees, humidity 63-94%. In the next days we will have humid thunderstorm weather. There is even a warning for huge hailstones for tomorrow. So there is a risk of damage and mold because of high humidity. I will have an eye on this. Tropicana looks healthy, so I‘m not worrying too much anymore.

She’s a little shorter than the rest only by a couple of inches! I’ve opened her up by defoliating the bigger fan leaves and letting light get to the lower bud sites allowing better quality buds (non airy/popcorns) humidity hit between 50 and 56% and that’s perfect! Will lower in the last 2 weeks to 40% and hold during flush! Thanks for stopping by!

DSD33 week 4F Here we are at the end of the 4th week of flower, and everything is going perfectly. I defoliated a ton of fan leaves and took away a few sucker shoots, and now I think I need to re arrange the branches in the net for optimal spacing. They are drinking approx 5L each every 4 days, with nutrients. Light: 60% @ ?cm @ 12/12h approx 38DLI Medic grow Mini sun 2 240w led with v1 full spectrum: Https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow/mini-sun-2-240-watts Https://medicgrow.com/collections/all/products/mini-sun-2-led-grow-light-medic-grow?variant=40327484735597

06/02/2020 Gonna feed them today 1tbls of blood meal. I snapped a branch on #2 (see video) her stems, I don't like break to easy so I will give some micro nutrients to help stems from breaking. Unless she is the HOLY GRAIL. I will cull her clone. All others handed super cropping well. 🙏 #4 in hydro is in it's own diary called Small Batch Seed making some F1 #1 showed her sex today, clones well took cut on 05/20/2020 is rooting well outside in coco coir, in humidity dome just cut and scrape the stem,once rooted I cut off yellowing leaves i hope her smoke is as good as she looks. 5 days into week 10 and #2, and #4 are male so indoors they go for pollen collection. Will dust one bud of each female with each male and hunt for what I want. Also see what each passes on in the cross.

Feb 15th All three plants are doing well They have all been bent over to grow sideways Feb 17th More LST, all is well. Feb 18th Changed out nutrients This week I added 18l of nutes with slightly stronger mix at 75% strength. I will change on next weeks update Feb 21st Plants have used approximately 6 litres since the 18th They are all looking healthy but for some reason they aren’t growing in length that much. They are producing many new branches but the branches are becoming to compacted close together.
