Week 1-3 250watt metal halide Week 4-13 250 watt hps 5 gallon living soil in fabric pot Red clover living green mulch Alfalfa sprouted seed tea (seedling stage) Spinach fermented plant juice ( during vegetative) Calcium phosphate from charred bones ( added during transition to flower) Lacto bacillus (once every 4 weeks) Fermented fish amino acids (during early flower) Top dressed with gaia green powerbloom. (Early flower) I decided to top this plant really last minute 10 days in to flower( yeah I know, probably not the best idea) and it didn't even phase this girl at all. What I learned this grow: Some plants smell more than others( by a lot). Use a filter even when venting outside. The Green mulch was nice until I wanted to top dress. Need to find another form of mulch that I can move. Lay off all the additives a bit. Not sure if any of the things I added really did anything but I like to experiment, and she took it well. I will definately be growing this sexy little plant again馃挌

This week we saw an incredible ammoubt if growth thanks to the beautiful sun we鈥檝e had. I had to cover her over with a tarpaulin to give some shade at the highest points of the day as she was having some heat stress issues. Had the chance to give to do really Useful LST. As you can see in the pics the canopy has opened up well. Looking forward to seeing how she goes. Also this morning I noticed there are some pistils this means we are now entering flowering stage so I will begin to add some biobizz bloom and a little extra fish mix. During the first weeks of flowering all plants usually have a growth spurt! Autoflower a may only be a week or two but photoperiods can go upto 5weeks.

End of week 9! Everything is progressing, buds are stacking good, leaves are still yellowish but the calmag deficiency and the rust spots stopped progressing, I'm starting to think that maybe the yellowing is natural fading? Don't have a clue at this point, I just want this first run to finish in the best way possible. She is starting to smell amazing, I really can't wait to chop her but I think she has at least 3 weeks more. Patience is the key! Day 66 08/05/2022 - Holy fucking shit, I came back home after 2 days that I was out and the smell has taken the whole house LMAO, never felt anything like it, smell of lemon and candy, it makes my mouth wet馃槺 Day 67 09/05/2022 - Took some pics with lights off and flash and defoliated a bit to improve air flow

Day 78 - pheno 1 was cut down, id normally hang dry the whole plant but decided to do it in branches instead. Second pheno has been left in darkness as i haven't had the time to cut. Pheno one is hung up and drying.. Room Humidity 60/60. As soon as she's dry enough I'll finish trimming her up. Then put them into jars. Might use boveda 60% packs but I'll see. Smells strong! Will post a harvest when both plants have been dried fully an in jars. Hope you enjoy the videos and pictures. Stay tuned.

Well, that was unnerving. I had to type this all out again because the app crashed. Number 1 Loaded with long white sticky hair. I've never seen anything like it. Smells like old fashioned acrid hydro weed, very faint though. This one will go 120 days by the looks of it and hopefully give a couple or 3 z's. Number 2 Near finished. Hairs are red. Sticky sticky honey trichomes and smells like moldy cheese. I flushed the cocoa last night with 3 gallons of pH water. I figure she should be ripe by the end of February. Small yield, but looks like DANK weed. Might get an Oz if I'm lucky. The Mutant. I don't know what to say about this beast. I had to drop her down off the stand she got so tall. She Begs, and I mean pleads for MORE NUTRIENTS. She is getting nearly doubled what I feed the others. I don't understand how this one doesn't catch on fire I add so many nutrients, but still almost looks deficient - kinda light green. She Loves the Pk Though. I put nearly 10 ml per gallon more than I feed the rest! She dries out her cocoa every night. This one looks like it will go 150+ days and be a substantial yield. I'm hoping for 4 maybe 5 ozs if I can get number 2 cleared out of the tent soon and then more pars for this fatso.

A week full of adversities, lots of mold on the main buds. I increased ventilation and air exchange, but unfortunately it wasn't enough. I lost the biggest top of Baker's #1 due to mold, and to prevent the harvest and reduce plant transpiration (since I couldn't lower the humidity), I decided to remove some buds from most of the plants at the end of week 7. I left the most promising ones and those where I didn't see mold. I left the tent open every day and night to reduce humidity, but I still had problems with some moldy buds at the end of week 8. But it's all good, everything has been a learning experience so far. I've made good friends and continue to learn more each day. I have some clones that are revegetating and maybe I'll bring a new project. Thank you to everyone who dedicated some of their time to this diary. I express my gratitude, and if it helped you in any way, leave a comment! See you next time, I'll still bring photos of the fully cured buds.

Added DIY supplemental co2. Using water sugar and yeast. Buds on the caramel cream auto are getting fat and just starting to produce red hairs. Trichome coverage is slightly above average. I鈥檓 hoping it鈥檚 got about 3.5 weeks to go. We shall see. Been only giving it plain ph water as I gave it mild nutrient burn but not too bad. Whenever it gets too hot in there I turn on the AC for a bit and keep the ac on through out the night. Other than that not much to say. See u next week

I have taken a few Pods that I use for my cloning machine and decided that I am going to try and use them as sure plants, so that I can take my water right up to the bottom of the basket this time and see if these can make my planting more consistent. 聽 12/26/2023-Germination Day 2 Tap root achieved Planting Commencing 12/27/2023-Germination Day 3 Misted the dome lightly misted the rapid rooter and added a little water to the bottom of the pan to encourage root growth to the pan. 12/28/2023-Germination Day 4 Ground Hogs day 12/29/2023- Germination Day 5 She is up, she has broken surface, I misted the root riot, and around the bottom of the tray to try and entice root growth down rapidly. 12/31/2023- Germination Day 6 Ground Hogs Day 1/1/2024-Germination Day 7 HAPPY NEW YEARS!!.. I did it I planned it out so my planting day would fall on New Years and it worked.. Yay!!! 1/2/2024- Germination Day 8 Since the roots are not to the water yet, I am pouring one cup of water lightly on the hydroton around the lady to try and encourage root growth down to the water.. 1/3/2024- Germination Day 9 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. 1/4/2024- Germination Day 10 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/5/2024- Germination Day 11 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I am going to change the water Sunday and kick off Week 1, I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water..

Definitely don't do what I did and manifold this strain, it grows too short and indica like for that! I think these would do really well in a SOG or with low stress training 馃挭 Once again the taste and smell is godlike, this is a very special diesel strain. 10/10!

New home for the girls. In the tent with the light and fan going ! Just wanted to give you a heads up.... found a couple of spider mites on them this morning.... not sure if that came from your place or from mine. But take a close look at yours and lmk if you notice any damage/irregularities @gbagrow The homie is popping like bacon on a Sunday morning. This is part of the game unfortunately, glad we are identifying issues early and eliminating them.
