Finally harvest time arrived 🤗 It’s been a great run, though I had to improve a lot along the way. But as usual there was a way to get things done and finished up😎 After a long heatwave I decided to chop the whole tent, just a bit before I actually wanted to. But I see amber trichomes and heavy buds, so I think it’s safe to chop now, so here we go. 🤩 Can’t wait to taste this after so long watching over it🤤 More details to come.

Apr 27: and they’re off. Both seeds germinated very strongly. I’m keeping the soil drier this time. I think maybe I’ve had soil too wet when starting seeds before and that slowed them down a bit. Will focus on keeping the seedlings moist to make up for the low air humidity. Once they get some roots going then I’ll start normal watering. Apr 30: snow day but plants are all still inside under lights. So far so good. May 1: one seedling is a bit bigger than the other at this early stage. I’ll pick one to keep and adopt out the other one. May 3: transplanted to intermediate pot to raise the soil level.

Decided to pop the rest of the seeds I have on hand . . 1. To weed out the duds if any, & 2. TO JUSTIFY ORDERING MORE SEEDS 😭🤕. Hey by the way , what’s your favorite discreet seed shop/breeder ? I need new genetics & websites. Comment your suggestions below 👇 would be a excellent way to help me out . All organic growing in case your interested .

First week of the flowering phase and things are already looking promising. Pistils appearing already as you can see in the photos, and all 5 plants stretching out nicely. I’ve now defoliated all of the fan leaves that were on the main stem, they were huge and had done their job of providing energy to the side branches and were now probably just taking up too much water and nutrients and were too low to absorb much light. So now all growth is concentrated on the side branches, all of which are nice and uniform and giving several tops on each plant. I’ve moved the light to 18inches/45cm away from the tops for the flowering phase. Temperatures have been a lot more ideal this week. Applied the BioBloom powder as a top dressing, using the lower dose of 3g per litre of substrate, so 36g top dressed onto each pot. Love how easy these nutrients are to use. Very simple to weigh and top dress rather than mixing up liquid nutes into water every time. Much less effort and much less time consuming. And the plants look the some of healthiest I’ve ever grown. No sign of any deficiencies so far!

Realized after my post a week ago my nutrient shedule says measurements per gallon and I was mixing that amount per liter.. even through veg but I didn’t start feeding any nuts until about week 4 and it’s been really rainy so I havnt fed that many times. Might have burnt her a bit but she’s looking healthier now. Lots of new growth. Anyways, learning experience .. havnt fed for a week and she kinda got soaked in the rain 3 or 4 days ago and still hasn’t dried up much so I’m gonna let her chill for now.. hairs started coming out of all the tops now..

Willkommen zur dritten Woche der Wachstumsphase.💚🌱 Hallo zusammen! Es ist großartig zu sehen, wie sich die Dinge entwickeln, und ich freue mich, euch auch diese Woche wieder ein Update geben zu können. Heute, an Tag 22, haben meine beiden Runtz-Ladies die Marke von 17–18 cm erreicht und sehen wirklich prächtig aus! Beide entwickeln sich nahezu gleichmäßig und wirken gesund und vital – genau das, was man sich in dieser Phase wünscht. Um den Fokus auf das obere Wachstum und die kräftigeren Triebe zu legen, habe ich die untersten beiden Nodiensätze entfernt, da ich die Erfahrung gemacht habe, dass diese ohnehin keine nennenswerten Ergebnisse liefern. In der letzten Woche habe ich beide Pflanzen zweimal mit jeweils ca. einem Liter destilliertem Wasser gegossen. Mit dem Düngen warte ich noch – damit werde ich erst beginnen, wenn die Damen in die Blütephase übergehen. Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit dem bisherigen Fortschritt und gespannt darauf, wie sich die nächste Woche entwickelt. Ich wünsche allen Teilnehmern weiterhin viel Erfolg und Freude bei diesem großartigen Wettbewerb! Bis bald 🌱👋💚

@MephistoGenetics, 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. 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 environment 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 10 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 paper towel 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 Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices. Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30.

20.11.2025 Well, I did it and chose a branch to pollinate. I've put a bag over the Agent-Orange-Male-Flowers, cut it off, carried it to the tent, put it over the Gelato x Black Lebanon-Female, shook and clapped et voilà, I hope it worked 😅. She is georgious, splendid and healthy. I need to defoliate her more, but now, after the pollination of one branch, I do prefer to leave her alone for a while. Her flowers are bulping up, the stretch was extremely intense and also she does drink very much! What a journey 🌸💜.

It's been an interesting week. I had to ask for help with resolving the intense smell coming from my garden... I can smell it from my driveway at this point.. I was advised that I probably turned my fan up way too high, which overloads the carbon filter on the end of my exhaust. I ordered another new one.. turned it down.. and I also had to cut down the cheese auto... all her trichomes were cloudy bit I definatly could have left her for another week... just couldn't handle the smell lol. Ask for help and you shall receive, thanks Growdiaries. And thank you Oozlefinch for the solid advise.. ✌️ I bought a rosin press this week and it's awesome.. she will be used for this grow as soon as things are ready. I cut out my backyard to plan for round #3 for all these plants.. plus a whole lot more! Process/ Environment changes: -Turned down my exhaust fan.. the carbon filter can't keep up with the amount of air being pushed through it.. in the water industry we would call this 'short circuiting'.... The Gorilla cookies is growing well. It's a tall plant with long nugs ( I hope the full out a lot more). I would recommend supporting the branches at this point in the grow. There's a slight smell coming off her and trichome production was late to start compared to most the other plants I have... I suspect she will go past 90 days unfortunately, but I'm excited to see what the finished product looks like. Hitting her with compost teas at a pH of around 6.7 That's it.. I'm on auto pilot at this point.. there's not much I can do except sit back and wait. Thank you Fastbuds

Day 78: This week I only gave them water with regulator, humic-blast and ezymen because they where ready to harvest. Those others from last week where kept inside a dark room for some days before cutting them down. By doing this, your plants will increase making thc. In the middle of this week i also putted some plants inside the dark/drying room to make them ready to harvest. These will also be in the dark for a few days before I harvest them. At the end of this week all other plants are in the dark as well for a couple of days, i will keep them in the grow room because there is no point to move them to the other room lol. Because i put them into the dark for days instead of cutting them down, I can cut them fresh and put them in drying nets instead of putting the full plant upside down on ropes. I will use a cutting machine for this.

The plant looks super bushy and also very very strong and happy, she's growing super fast, and she's also enjoying life man, really happy to see this lady enjoying, she has been mainlain ed by removing the main stem and allowing the 4 secondary low ones to become the main ones, after that she got topped on each main apical and that's how we have now on week 9 this beauty, a fat runtz muffin bush! 😍
