Week 2 of the flowering stage has commenced with my magnificent Mimosa x Orange Punch auto plant, and the progress is nothing short of extraordinary. Standing proudly at 65 cm tall, the plant's growth and development continue to exceed my expectations, promising a bountiful harvest in the near future. Environmental conditions remain stable and conducive to optimal growth. Daytime temperatures range between 28-29°C, providing the warmth needed to support vigorous flowering, while nighttime temperatures maintain a comfortable 24-25°C. Humidity levels remain consistent at 55-60%, creating a balanced environment that encourages healthy bud development without excess moisture. In response to the plant's increased growth and metabolic activity during this crucial stage, I have further adjusted the watering schedule. Now, the plant receives a generous 0.7 liters of water each day, ensuring that it remains well-hydrated and nourished as it directs its energy towards flower production. One of the most delightful aspects of this stage is the emergence of sweet scents from the developing flowers. Each day brings new aromatic notes, a testament to the plant's genetic heritage and the care it receives. The flowers themselves are becoming increasingly resinous, with a light touch leaving my fingers pleasantly sticky—a sign of the potent resin glands producing cannabinoids and terpenes. As I continue to monitor and care for my Mimosa x Orange Punch auto plant, I'm filled with a sense of anticipation and wonder at the natural processes unfolding before me. Each day brings new growth, new scents, and new experiences in this journey of cultivation and discovery. With dedication and attention to detail, I look forward to nurturing this plant through the remaining weeks of flowering, eagerly anticipating the day when I can enjoy the fruits of this labor in a bountiful harvest. Until next time.

Week two of flower is here and the first pistils are popping out all over the place. I am pretty pleased with how the training is going and the grow overall. I will here give a report on each plant. 1) Back left plant. Growing very well, the most lateral branching of any plant of the four. multiple additional colas popping up to the canopy level. 2) Back right plant. Growing very well, however almost no lateral branching. Aside from the four main branches and the two lower nodes, there is almost no secondary growth at all, which males this plant a really bad candidate for scrog. To try to encourage more brancing I have topped one of the branches. I do my best. 3) Front left plant. Great growth here, very similar plant to the first. I did accidentally snap a cola off today while training. Whoops. 4) Front right plant. Very similar to the first and third, except she is four days younger so I'm quite pleased that she is holding her own in this scrog. How am I doing so far? This is my first time scrogging, and I am sort of winging it. If you see something wrong please tell me, or if you see something right! Day 8: Fertigated 5l each. Day 10: Photographed and applied defoliation and LST training to continue the scrog process. Day 12: Fertigated 5l each. I will do a final tucking and defoliation in two days, then I will let the girls grow from there in. Day 14: Photographed - will do the final tucking and photograph again More updates to come later in the week. If you are on X, please follow me @Unorthadoxdude

Switched to flowering this week (Nov. 1) and of course drained, cleaned and refilled the reservoir buckets with the flowering nutrient solution. Cleaning this week indicated more growth on the interior surfaces than normal so I also did a full H2O2 (3%) clean, with a good rinse afterwards. Also ran the air stone in a cleaning cycle for a few minutes. You can see that the discoloration from last week is gone, thankfully. Keeping the pH in check though I did let it slip with a few days in between readings there. Thankfully no substantial effect. I'm not sure I love the overall geometry of the plant... but it's healthy and has a decent number of colas forming so that's all that counts. Compared to the chilled and recirculated water system I used last time around, this is MUCH easier. My reservoir temps are a bit higher than I'd like but the Hydroguard is doing it's job and no issues so far. Fingers crossed it stays this way. Thanks for reading growmieverse.

Long time no see! Week 12 has passed, the flowers are only now swollen and the pistils are browning a bit. We are far behind schedule but whatever. Mimosa is monstrously big. This is my second grow only, and im really impressed and a bit proud of myself. Growing in coco is a fucking full-time job. Since I dont have the time to babysit it and water all the time Im watering once every two days instead of watering twice a day, i beleive that even though Mimosa grew to be such a beautiful plant it is still far from its real full potential. Coco is a gift and a curse and the same time. Probably soil would be my medium of choice in the future. Cookies is far behind in development. I just hope to harvest 10-15g from her. She has had a rough life from the start. The seed wouldn’t germinate, then she grew upside down, and shes been strange ever since. Still feel blessed that i have the capacity to grow such a beautiful plant from seed to harvest. I beleive i have another two weeks with them and cant wait to cut them down

T'was a week. Lots of good growth on the outdoor plants, and plenty of flower development on the indoor plants. The split on UKBS 2 is still as shitty looking as ever, but the degeneration of the stem has slowed somewhat. Inside, the flowering plants are taking off. I'm forseeing some donkey dick colas in the future. Timelapse do be here as well. Updates will come as things happen, per usual. 5/21/2021 - Flowering coming along quite nicely. Lots of development recently. UKBS 1 is very short and fat with tight bud structure. Carl 1 is giant, branching and somewhat wispy buds that I have confidence will dense up soon. 5/22/2021 - Broke out the fancy camera once again, took some nice bud shots and two side profiles of the tent. It's a real jungle. Yoinked a clone of UKBS 2, as the stem degeneration is starting to worry me and I'd rather clone now when the plant is relatively healthy than when it's almost fully wasted away.

Leider sind die Blattspitzen leicht verbrannt. Ich habe die Temperatur zu schnell erhöht 😒 Jetzt erstmal wieder auf 25°C Tagtemperatur und Alg a mic ins gießwasser, das sollte helfen 😌 Nach 2 Tagen hat sich die Pflanze sichtlich erholt 😍, sie sieht vitaler aus als je zuvor 😁

Week 6 and another feeding bumping up the PPM to 1250 ph. 5.8 3 of the 5 are about where I expected them, Think Different is really dense not a lot of stretch on that one. Baby Blue Dream is in ICU for the most part. I laid off the food and water until it dry's out a bit more. Takeaways this week... This is my 1st attempt at autos and 5 different strains at that. A lot of opportunities for learning here. watering feeding transplanting all play into my current results. The Green Buzz nutrients are amazing the sample kit I got is just enough for the 6 autos. I should finish all of them by the end of the grow the size of the bottles were just the perfect amounts for each phase VEG, TRANS & FLOWER with regular watering's as needed in-between feedings. looking forward to some more stretch and filling in the Scrog. I just gave it a 2 gallon flush of PH 6.p water in each pot the remainder in the pan was wicked up the next day hoping for more roots to spread. Until next week Merry Christmas to all and the GW Staff.😇

TUESDAY 8/13: She grew another couple of inches overnight and popped some new pistils..maybe she IS starting to flower! I fed her a gallon with grow big, big bloom, kelp me kelp you, bembe, terpinator, and great white today. It will probably be her last big dose of Nitrogen. WEDNESDAY: It rained a little bit last night and despite being very sunny, the temperatures were about 10 degrees cooler than usual. I see some spider mite damage on the plant next to her, so I'll be spraying all the plants with trifecta crop control as soon as the humidity drops again. THURSDAY: I wasn't able to visit her today..😟 FRIDAY: She really IS flowering!!! She'll definitely have time to finish before potential frost issues can occur...love it.👍 I sprinkled some bat guano and silicium flash onto her soil and watered it in with about a half gallon of water including beastie bloomz, terpinator, and bembe. I also thoroughly sprayed her with boom boom spray. I started brewing another batch of the PK booster compost tea including extra bat guano, earthworm castings, bembe, big bloom, and kelp me kelp you. It should be ready on Sunday. SATURDAY: Went boating...no time for gardening. SUNDAY: It was 108f today...miserably hot....I douched her with about a half-gallon of compost tea... MONDAY: She stretched another inch or so..

Que pasa familia, vamos con la quinta semana de crecimiento de estas Gorilla Melon feminizada de fastbuds. Vamos al lío, de las 3 plantas, me quede con 2 por espacio, siempre pongo alguna semilla de más por si no abriese alguna por no perder ese hueco del indoor. También se trasplantaron a su maceta definitiva, en este caso de 7 litros. Y ya superaron el shock provocado por el mismo trasplante. El ph se controla en 6.2 , la temperatura la tenemos entre 20/22 grados y la humedad ronda el 50%. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

All jarred up. This stuff is amazing tasting. Super smooth and tastes like real strawberry. 10 out of 10 fastbuds nailed this one.

here we are guys in the middle of week 8. the grow has been pretty good lately, just messed up some refilling but corrected immediately. as you can see from the pictures i did some mild defoliation to expose the lower buds. what do you guys think? to be honest I am pretty proud of the grow the girl looks beautiful. I am thinking about getting a 600w led and probably a bigger tent (100x100x200, 3"x3"x6") as always guys, advices are always welcomed keep growing 👍

Apologies for the delayed update. The grow goes on.... I was planning on harvesting last week, but I decided to let her go a little bit longer because she is packing on some good weight and the trichomes are still milky with hardly any amber. I think I'm going to let it go one more week. The flush is starting to take effect now. The leaves are start to change colour.

Dia 95 de vida , hay dos fotos que son del dia 91 de vida antes de amarrar las plantas, las demás fotos son actuales. Hay una ola de calor esta haciendo mas de 35 grados celcius y hace mal tiempo de un momento a otro puede hacer alguna tormenta así que decidimos coger las plantas para ayudarlas a resistir en caso de temporal. Siguen creciendo y estan monstruosas aunque las indicas ya van marcando pistilo yo creo que aún tardarán en florecer por el momento todo va genial esperemos que no nos arruine el cultivo ninguna tempesta.

Day 106 Plant 2 has been dried and jarred. She ended up bigger than I expected at 148g dry. Super sticky and relatively dense buds. It was about 120g of top shelf and the rest was smaller bud. I ended up smoking around 25g before taking these pics already. Plant 3 probably has about 2 weeks left. She is starting her final bulk and is looking nice and frosty. Stunty was harvested on 25-12-2025 and ended up weighing around 750g wet after trimming fan leaves.

Welcome back!!! It’s the beginning of week four. I now consider this plant to have finished the seedling phase, now move onto the veg stage. THURSDAY - Day 22 10 October 24 - Switched the blue spec light out for the red spec light. - 380 PAR/ PPFD at 26 inches distance. - Topped the two bottom branches. - Started doing a little LST by adding a few staples and a little bit of branch manipulation. - She’s slowly shaping to my vision for this plant. - Gotta start thinking of up potting her soon into her final home. FRIDAY - Day 23 11 October 24 - Added two more LST staples. - Just a day under the lights. SATURDAY - Day 24 12 October 24 Watering day, 1 litre of dechlorinated tap water. - Base water 1 litre - 61.1 PPM Final - 1 litre at 6.45 PH at 62.8 PPM Runoff - N/A - Thinking of removing those giant fam leaves soon, they’re becoming cumbersome. - Did my final planned topping of the two top branches. - I tweaked a top branch and there was a pop at the knuckle, not a complete break but there’s a bit of damage. - I’m fairly confident that she’ll send resources to fix it and make it even stronger. - No stress, we push forwards and roll with the punches cause that’s what we do around here. SUNDAY - Day 25 13 October 24 - Just a day under the lights. - She doesn’t seem too bothered by yesterday’s branch tweaking. - There’s a but of a split but it seems to be scabbing over. - I’ll keep monitoring it over the next few days. MONDAY - Day 26 14 October 24 - Just a day under the lights. - Also a good recovery day. TUESDAY - Day 27 15 October 24 Transplant day into a 5 gallon pot and her final home. 60% Gaia Green Soil 20% Worm castings 20% Perlite 8 Tbsp Gaia Green All Purpose 4 Tbsp Gaia Green Power Bloom 5 Tbsp Diatomaceous Earth 1/2 Tbsp Dynomyco Amended this mix and transplanted. Watering day, 5 litres of dechlorinated tap water. - Base water 5 litres - 61.2 PPM - Add 2.5 ml Cal-Max - 172 PPM - Add 5 ml Supermax - 206 PPM - Add 15 ml Miicrobial Mass - 337 PPM Final - 5 litres at 6.61 PH at 337 PPM Runoff - N/A - Removed the LST staples to let her acclimate to her new home. - Will resume LST in a few days. - Removed the lowest fan leaves. - Some leaves are funky but they also are in the way of the important growth so they may get removed in the near future. WEDNESDAY - Day 28 16 October 24 - Just a day under the lights recovering from yesterday’s transplant and extended light hours. - She’s perked back up and looking happy though. - Probably resume with LST staples tomorrow. - The tweaked branch looks like it’s going to recover just fine, just a little weary about working it too soon. This is effectively the end of week four, it’s been quite eventful but we’re done with topping and transplanting so we’ll see how she gets on these next few weeks of pure unadulterated vegetation. Vamos!!
