Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild .............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-09-11. Kl 12.00. Week 4 starts. I have cleaned the whole room for the new week and gave the girls water and nutes. Added videos and pics. Girl nr 1 is 27 cm high and girl nr 2 is 50 cm high and nr 3 is 15 cm high. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-12. Kl 10.00. New pics and video. Nr 2 has grown 5 cm in 23 h, its incredible. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-13. Kl 22.00. Everything is great in the garden right now. Updated with new video. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-15. KL 10.00. New pics and videos. Girl Nr 1 is 33 cm high, Nr2 is 70 cm and girl Nr is 22 cm. Nr 2 has grown 20 cm the last 3 days. Look at the stem of girl Nr 2 😍 The girls are starting to smell a lot now. Its a intense smell in the grow room. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-16. Kl 10.00. The girls grow like crazy, i have to defoliate about 20 leafs a day. Nr 2 is 76 cm tall now, i wonder when she slows down?. Added 2 liters of water and nutes this morning and 2 new videos. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-17. Made a time laps of the girls first 28 days.

Started LST using heavy duty wire. After a couple days, decided to remove them as plant was being pushed down too hard. Thankfully, she bounced back very fast. Will start LST again, but this time using twine. Overall, she’s a little behind schedule, but looks decent otherwise.

Week 8! I've seen some challenges leading up to this point so far, with Plant #2 showing the results of what insanely high EC levels can do and how important it can be to know what's going in to the soil and what's coming out. Luckily, things seem to be straightening out and both plants are putting on bud weight. Day 50: - did some very light defoliation, removing a few fan leaves that were blocking bud sites on both plants. - the smell is starting to get much stronger than it was last week. Day 51: - watered with a 310ppm nutrient solution, using 3ml of Remo's Bloom nutrients + GH's CaliMagic per gallon of dechlorinated (by aeration) tap water. Day 52: - nothing to report Day 53: - tent temperatures reached a bit higher than normal due to warmer outside temperatures. 80F instead of 78F, for approximately 8hrs. Day 54: - Plant #2 has an extremely sweet smell, sort of like grape. - Plant #1 is smells similar but not quite as sweet and not quite as much grape. Day 55: - Probably should have watered today but we're leaving it one more day. Day 56: - watered with plain, dechlorinated (by aeration) tap water. - used small amount of bloom nutrients to adjust pH from 7.1 to 6.4, resulting in a weak 55ppm nutrient solution. - watered to runoff (maybe 10%). - Plant #2 runoff testing at 6.3 pH and 1850ppm, which is higher than we expected. - did some light foliage trimming, mostly on plant #2, to remove dead and mostly-dead leaves.

10/31 - Harvested the short fattie (Halle Berry)..washed and hung to dry. 11/14 - Harvested the bushy one along with several other plants. This is the second time I've grown this strain, and had pretty much the same results. Excellent weed, but not a lot of it. Neither plant gave me any trouble. The short fat one came in pretty heavy considering she had no lower branching at all. Both plants produced very greasy, very pungent bud, covered in trichomes. The bushier one had no training and produced more, but wasn't as fat. I pressed some of it for the rosin, and it's delish. Very terpy.👍 Dry weights: A - 52g B - 71g Final thoughts: Will probably grow it again because it's my wife's favorite flavor, but I'd refer to find a strain that produces the same flavors but much heavier yields. Potency: 7/10 Yield: 5/10 Flavor: 8/10 Aroma: 9/10 Bag-appeal: 8/10 Bud Density: 7/10

What a week, So I did a run off test end of last week and they was really high, but I would like to address the DNA Mills cork as I am using this in just one pot (A) to try it out I used 3/4 (B) to my normal coco in another pot 50:50 (C) in another at a 1/4 (D) then when just my normal coco mix ( E) and I havent seen much difference other then the retention of water... UNTILL NOW. So evaluating all my reading I have from run off this is how it WAS sitting running water with an EC 0.7 Ms/cm A - 2.4 Ms/cm B - 2.3 Ms/cm C - 2.0 Ms/cm D - 1.9 Ms/cm E - 1.5 Ms/cm So my conclusion is that I dont like the cork maybe I'm using it wrong somehow I dont know but in my experience, it seems to be grabbing hold of all the salts and not letting go, so this week I ran litres and litres of water through them to bring them down I can only get A down to 1.4 Ms/cm and am struggling to get it any further down does anyone have any suggestions. As for the deficiency I was supposed to I produce the PK booster beginning of this week and couldn't with the run off being so high, well that's what I'm hoping anyways 😂. Plant A doesn't seem to be swelling like the rest (front left in pictures) I'm hoping this is down to genetics if anyone else has any thought I'd love to hear them. Thanks for dropping in and reading, Happy Growing! 👊👍

These Blue dream matic Autos are gonna be some absolute monsters! Here we are at 37 days and were sitting at almost a week into flower, qnd the plants are over 17 inches tall. Looking at a great yielding strain here! Starting to get a good amount of smell to them! Super healthy plants, and super heavy stalks. First round of nutrients came at 35 days. They were moved to the hps at 32 days. General hydro, flora trio at 5ml each per gallon. They EXPLODED overnight. This week, i will begin some light lst and defoliation. Also, this week I will be hanging my brand new HLG Diablo 650R. These 5 blue dreams will be moved from the hps to the Diablo.

6/27/21 - I’m just feeding and letting the plants flower. So far so good! For a first time grow I think I did pretty well but it’s not over yet ;) 6/28/21 - They look great! I bumped up Cha Ching to run until final flush. Hopefully that will help make it a little more frosty. They are sticky to the touch and smell great. 6/29/21 - Some branches fell over from the weight of the bud. I had to tie them up to the light. See the bottom of the plant in the pic above. :) 6/30/21 - Most of the plants keep falling over. I have to tie them up with string to the light. Buds look great! 7/1/21 - More of the plant fell over but I tied everything up so it’ll be supported. I shouldn’t have to tie anymore branches. 7/2/21 - They look good! Lots of buds. More than I initially thought. Oh well, looks good! 7/3/21 - Day 42 of flower. Getting very close to start a flush. I’ll use sledgehammer a couple times then water from there on out. They look on track! I haven’t had any deficiencies or any discoloration. No pests either.

Day 64 ( 31 of 12/12 ) So a good week in the grow room , Been sorting out some life issues so havnt been online as much as i wanted, The girls are looking fantastic , Mills c4 has been upped to 1ml and as there all nice and green. i didn't up mills A+B like there chart suggests as if anything there a little too green , Ph at every feed has been 5.7 & end run off is 6.1 . As we are into the full swing of flower i can see we have x3 different pheno types im sure , Plant number 5 is VERY strong incida in shape and appearance And looks like it will finish way ahead of the rest so far , it already had VERY tight internodes and is shaping up to had HUGE buds . Plants 3 - 6 & 4 are looking the most sativa and there buds look furthest from finish , (EC : 1.6) 1 & 2 look epic and lots like the lots like the images on the dinafem site so far , and are growing fat

First Signs of Bloom! 🌸🚀 We’re now entering Week 5 since sprout, and my Auto Moon Rock by Divine Seeds has officially started her bloom journey! You can clearly see the first pistils emerging alongside vivid, toxic-green new growth. She’s staying compact but clearly packing power—this one has serious promise. Earlier in the run, I applied some gentle LST following a topping—yes, despite Divine Seeds’ recommendation not to top autoflowers like this one. But I trusted my instinct and the plant’s vigor—and she hasn’t disappointed! 💪 She handled the stress like a champ and bounced back with balanced, bushy growth and strong branching. 🌿 This week’s routine included: 🔸 BioBizz Grow – 2 ml/L 🔸 BioBizz CalMag – 0.5 ml/L 🔸 BioBizz Bloom – 2 ml/L (new!) 🔸 BioBizz TopMax – 1 ml/L (new!) 🔸 Homebrewed Compost Tea for microbial support 🔸 Effective Microorganisms for root vitality 🔸 Dechlorinated tap water 🔸 pH: 6.4 🔸 EC: 1300 µS/cm I also introduced a DIY CO₂ system (sugar, water, dry yeast)—and it’s bubbling away perfectly! I’m expecting even better growth now, especially as bloom ramps up. Once my CO₂ monitor arrives, I’ll start reporting ppm levels directly. 🌬️📈 📽️ Also up this week: a fresh Growlapse video! Always satisfying to see how much change a few days can bring when you fast-forward. She’s reacting well to every bit of training, nutrients, and environment. I have to say—Divine Seeds has bred a real gem here. Even though I went against the grain with topping, this cultivar showed resilience, structure, and strength. So far, I can highly recommend her to any grower who enjoys working closely with their plants. Let’s see how she stretches in the coming days. I’m expecting great things! 🍃✨

Day 57 - The girls are bursting with flower....... looked abit light (the main tops looked a light green, showed signs of nutrient deficiencies), so upped the Dutch Master Gold One Flower, it's 1000 ppm now.... thinking about Defoliation... outside temperatures are middle of winter, 0oC to 20oC (32oF to 70oF) .... but typical high low is 5-15oC (40-60oF)......... surprisingly the LED's warm the tent upto 20-24oC, this is important point.... i am running the lights, 6 pm to 6 am... 12hrs lights on all night, and all day is night mode...... during the day is the highest temps of the day... and during the lowest temps, they have the light heat ....... Day 61 - I trimmed em .... this was the third defoliation..... things are starting to get sticky..... ah i'm just going to wing it.... they are 2 months (8 wks) from seed.... idk what i'm doing....... i did some serious stress bending today, and had to put afew tie downs in..... my theory is to hurt em as much as i can without killin em.... to make em harder, stronger, faster, more stressed, so they can survive anything..... grow em stronger...... the smell is zero in the home, but once i got them out for their 2 week haircut, they started producing some strong wet kisses, that were sticky and wet.... the aroma of heavenly ladies was abundant...... 😎😎 idk... this tastes so good.... it's like some kind of weird berry combo goodness.... i'm vaping vanilla custard atm and this is so good with vanilla custard.... vanilla custard kush n cookies... haha watch the video......... 😎

This week my LSD-25 that I mainlined is having issues, I wasn’t too sure if it was heat stress cause tents temps have gone up to 83 the highest and hovers around high 70’s all week, or if it was a calcium issue, potassium, or nute burn. Either way they’re looking CRISPY lol. The other LSD-25 that was just LST, is actually doing quite well with none of those same problems. I flushed out the burnt plant with some regular PH’d water to see if it had any effect and then finished with some soluble gypsum. Other than that the last 2 plants are doing great and chugging along!

Esta semana los nutrientes siguen de la misma manera, es notorio el exceso de Nitrogeno por ende se disminuira en los próximos riegos, se realizaron podas apicales en los clones que no les hice anteriormente para que alcanzaran más altura. Dentro de esta semana instalare la malla scrog Kanovi para guiar los vigorosos brotes. Además esta semana ya esta retomando el crecimiento la planta madre variedad Tangie la cual cumplió su ciclo de propagación por esquejes y porfin florecerá.
