I'm surprised both of these plants are still kicking after the heat they have been through. A few days after they first sprouted we got hit with mad heat. Almost hit 48c (118f) for a few days and the plants almost died. They slowly started to come back after the heat stopped but there behind in growth by a lot (over a month old). Well see how they do so happy growing everyone!

Man what a busy week. I left for a small vacation with the family and left the plants in the care of someone and luckly everything is still alive lol. Then today I almost forgot to post my weekly diary because I was busy build my new grow office and moving all the equipment in. The room I built is where all the plants well eventually end up ones my coco and perlite arrive. So one plant is 2 weeks behind the other I believe. That's why one looks smaller then the other. Both plants tho are doing very well and are coming along nicely. Hope to have then in the autopots by next weekend. Well happy growing everyone

Simple week with a bit of work. Started with repotting the plants into my Autopot System after doing a very thorough cleaning. Then I did a small leaf strip and LST training the next day. There all now under my philzon "2000w" LED cree cob lights for the rest of veg and then when they go to flower they well be replaced with a few Spider-Farmer lights. So far that's all that's going on. So happy growing everyone!!!

Pretty easy going week. Did a bit of LST during the week with a nice topping done on September 4th. Plants are growing a bit more and more each day. Now with me turning the autopot system and air domes on September 4th I bet they well start to grow even faster. So when I turned the autopot system on none of the trays filled.... I got a bit of water into each of them but it all stopped.... I was about to start pulling everything apart when I thought to try opening the drain off on the end of the 16mm line. Opened it up and nothing. Waited a second a day just as I was about to close it POP!!! Big burst of water comes out the end of the line. Quickly closed it and went and checked the trays and 3 of the 5 were filling up. Waited tell the 3 were done and the checked the other 2, opened the floats and the water started coming out on both. After that everything was going smoothly..... atleast that's what I thought at first. Went to check on everything about 2 hours later and there's about 2L of water on the ground by the drain off pipe..... Soooooo quickly turned off the valve. Got a towel and cleaned up the mess. After I was done I opened the valve and looked for the leak. Found it quick at the drain off valve. Had a rather fast Drip coming out of it. So turned the valve off again and just opened it to fill the trays and then turned it off again. Going to have to look at getting a hose clamp maybe or see if just corrects itself. So far that's all for now so happy growing everyone!!!!

Man out of all the plants in this set up, I'd have to say these GDP plants are the nicest. Great growth, nice size and drinking tons of water. I had a bit of leave deformity on some of my other plants from I belive from ti much wind but luckily, both of these plants went unfazed. I'm excited to see how they turn out because I've only smoked it ones and it was one of the tastiest buds I'd ever had. Temperature and humidity the last week having been staying within range for the most part. Had a few spikes in humidity a few times. Had to turn my 40 pint dehumidifier off a few times because of the heat coming off of it. The Autopot system is running smoothly. Removed the air stones and air pump from it and put a 400GPH water pump for circulation instead. Also Removed my 50w heater from my res also because I felt like the temperature of the room is keeping it warm enough. Did some fiming this week and also did a bit of LST but not much. Think I'm going to hold off on any more LST tell I get it closer to where the net well go. Ones they hit about 20 inches ill be flipping them to flower. Regardless of how short the other 3 plants at the far end are.

Both GDP plants are doing amazing. So far they haven't presented me with a single issue this grow and thats nice, sewing as I've had a few hiccups this grow. There both in the threshold of where I want the majority of my plants to be growth wise for when I flip them to flower. So far half my plants are there, 2 of them are just about there and 2 have a ways to go (Red dragon and Grandaddy Black). Depending on what happens in the next 24 hours tho, this might be my last day of veg before I flip them to flower.... well see tho. Both plants got a bit of topping done rite at the beginning of the week. Already bounced back from that nicely and started growing again within 4 days of them getting topped. And also set up the trellis netting for when they start to grow. It'll be easier to set up now then when they are in flower so that I can guild the plants where they need to go. Well that's all for now growmies Happy growing everyone!!!!

Well the plants growing quick. Hoping by the end of this upcoming week it'll be in the net. Everything humidity, temperature etc has been going really good the last week and nothing really to report on. Hope after doing lollipoping and a leaf strip next week it'll be easier to take some pictures of the plants because rite now with the net and space it's not very easy lol. Well that's all for now Happy growing everyone!!!!

This is the last update I'll be doing on this post. It takes to much time to do all 6 strains on there own so I'll be starting a multi strain diary so if you follow this one and you want to see how it ends make sure to follow that grow. Ill still be doing a final update on each strain on the harvest total. Happy growing everyone!!!!
