Tangie Dream Auto 1st Grow

Genetics Tangerine Dream X Autoflowering #1 Cannabis Type Sativa Autoflower, Feminized Autoflower Indica / Sativa Percentage 40% Indica / 60% Sativa Flowering Time 70-75 days from sprout Terpene Profile Mandarin Oranges, Citric, Sweet Flavor Profile Tangy, Citrus, Intense Height 60-70cm Effects Balanced, Cerebral, Relaxing, Comforting Yield up to 500g/m2 PH levels given on a weekly basis are taken from run-off every 24hrs and I average it out by 7 days and that is my PH/PPM readings. I also give individual PH/PPM on all nutes and amount given and more. Daily pics so you can compare our growths, and tips if your interested on giving/receiving are more than welcome. Washed the coco with voodoo juice this time and pre planted and soaked so when watered this time their was no sinkage. So, I know your meant to give sensi coco grow part A+B but I've read that it's not required with autos and bloom works much better. So, we are skipping grow. 25ml of sensi coco bloom part A ph 5.6 0 hrs 25ml sensi coco bloom part B ph 6.3 6hrs 25ml B-52 PH 6.2 PPM 440 12hrs 25ml voodoo juice PH 6.1 PPM no change 18hrs. Will stick to this feeding for the first 2-3 days then I will add Pirana and Tarantula. 25ml of each then with a 25ml flush of distilled water, seems to keep the nute burn away got rid of it on my hydro zkittlez and didn't even cut down on amount of nutes just added a flush. And every 3 day I just give voodoo and a small amount of B-52 and mostly pure distilled water, 6.3 PH 78 PPM 21c temp and it's got rid of the nute burn and the plant has transformed the last 3 days. 16hrs since planted. No sign of her popping yet, I'll be expecting to see some sign of her after I open after her 6hr sleep in the dark. Took first reading of run-off after 16hrs PMM 1150 PH 6.4 considerable lower than the 2020 PPM run-off I got from my first PPM reading on my first day on other hydro strains. Adding a lot more voodoo juice, well I washed the coco+perlite before planting. 4/1/22 Sadly, no sprout has popped yet, last time at 24hrs the other 2 hydros has popped, but they had a 48hr extra germination periods, so, let's see by D2 If it hasn't shown any sign I'll move a little earth around it might be stuck like the zkittlez was. But, I'm leaning more on the under developed side atm. Let's see. 4/2/22 so, still nada, I've added a very recommended organic nute for sick, seedlings, clones and so on. It's stats to add 16ml per l so I added 1.6ml. to a 100ml of water. Hopefully this will help. 5/1/22 So, 12hrs after giving biocanna she is standing proud. Expecting big things from biocanna, Piranha and Tarantula. 6/1/22 I've added cal mag xtra it can't hurt, she is going to need it, she has tripled in size since yesterday. Seems as though they are loving the bloom instead of the grow, thinking of cutting the other hydros early and giving them bloom now. They are suffering from something, I do not like the colour of the leafs at all. 8/1/22 update, really liking her grow, seen she was very slow to sprout and got planted to early she is doing better than I expected. She's loving the bloom. Going to stick to the 2 remaining weeks of grow on the 2 week old CBD/ZKITTLEZ and swap them to bloom and all their other nutes when it hits week 5. Going to stop with the biocanna as I don't want my plants building up an immune system to it, as if they get sick with all the nutes I have this is my go to problem solver. So, biocanna I'd say is a must especially for new growers who will make mistakes even with the best nutes if it's your first grow get a back up nute and only use it if your plants are sickly and when they get better stop the solution soon after and get her back to her feeds as they were before but cut down, or add more depending on why your plants got sick. I have a feeling this is only the start of troubles but I'll take them as they come. And above all I'll learn from my failures and success alike. Thanks for reading. PPM AND PH READINGS COMING IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS ON ALL NUTES AND AMOUNTS GIVEN. IF Y0U HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS OR ADVICE PLEASW FEEL FREE TO COMMENT OR MENTION ME IN A COMMENT WITH YOUR ADVICE/QUESTIONS. Thanks for reading. 10/1/22 Update; Drastic Change underway. So, I have decided to transplant, well completely change its setting. I am getting rid of all coco/perlite and I'm stripping her right back to bare roots and place same, well try place them deep into the new soil/cocohusk/perlite 60/30/10 ratio. Dosed the soil with my supersoil formula, going to continue giving sensi bloom, I know it's not perfect, but this isn't an organic grow just throwing a supersoil/ferts mix and see what's the result. I won't have anything to compare it to, other I've only 1 seed in this strain. But I'm doing an organic VS hydro of 2 of the same strain from 2 different breeders. So 1/1 ZkittlezOGauto/CBDauto20:1 hydro and the other organic/supersoil. And surprise surprise, organic is kicking ass they are 4 times bigger and planted at the exact same time, hoping to see growth in this one 2. gottagrowsometime 11/1/22. So, now that I can control my PH in my supersoil formula I can feed high dose on a regular basis and see how it goes. But going to give her a few days. Will have updates for you on next week's diaries. Only pics will be added to all grows for the rest of the week. Have a good 1. gottagrowsometime

Weeks 2, not to happy with the progress of her at all. Thinking she needs to go into full soil. But transplant has already slowed her growth massively. Am hoping she picks up in the next week and showing some growth. Let's see 15/1/22 not happy with grow thinking of scraping her. Okay, I've decided to run her for one more week. I'm going to stop the sensi bloom and just give her supersoil formula.

19/1/22New week, and as you can see the last few days have been great as for growth, the leafs on the other hand are coming through the other side, but it takes a lot longer to fix a problem when it's soil. Think I'm going to flood her to flush and bad PH or over nutes. Think I'll give her this week and she what her new growth looks like. Glad I didn't scrap her like I said I might last week. She's my tester to see how far I can push the plants in soil with the nutes I have so not to concerned about the outcome. Just wanted to see what I could do wit plain soil with my supersoil formula and nutes. 20/1/22 Removed some of the spots off the leafs. All is remaining is healthy looking, hoping to keep it that way, I'm not sure I really needed to remove it, not like it'd of spread right? It was my first time dealing with any kind of spot or leaf color, all but a little slow for. hydros but this last week she has seem to found her roots, and the hydros are coming along, still far behind their sister organics but none the less they have at least doubled since deciding to heavily dose, (carefully) them, I didn't nute burn them, just leads to my suspicion that the drainage is just to easy, I'd say adding some neutral clay so it can hold water will be a 100% surety if I decide to go hydros again. But that being said, as stunted as the hydros are they do look healthy, so I must be getting the balance right. D16 Changed my mind, took my bad looking fan leafs off altogether, no need for them, just a bad reminder of my inexperience. Should have just used regular soil instead of compost. As giving any sort of nute is hard at the moment of this stage of growth. Going to just cut back on the nutes this week and focus on root on growth. Hoping in turn that'll help. 22/1/22 think I'm gonna try something I seen on a grow that was very successful, maybe a little late. But thinking I'm going to top her tomorrow. And then throw my own twist on it, I'll either look like a hero or a zero. Okay, so, as I thought, it wasn't a good idea to mainline as they grow so quickly. But on one of my first grow questions a guru told me to mainline her so, I was like. He must be right. But, that's why I was wondering if I stripped the nodes of early would that help give me the extra time to mainline her, but yeah..guess gurus can be wrong too. Check out the advice I got on the zkittlez organic. 24/1/22 clearly this plant has only found it actually real growth in the last 10 days. So, I think this plant is going in the ground at least an extra 2 weeks. But happy with how she is looking really happy and healthy. So, stupidly I got advice that I should mainline an auto an in my inexperience I just said ok it must be able to be done, thankfully I didn't take that advice about mainlining my organic zkittlez in week 3 I asked a grow question about doing LST and I got a link sent and said I should do this method and 2 others agreed. Have a look if u want lol. I am going to top this plant really early though, probably just as just goes past her 3rd node

27/1/22 decided to take her fan leafs and top her on the 4th node. She is very stunted. And spaces between nodes are very short. After having to raise my light so not to burn my other 4 plants I was thinking I'd of having to raise her, but in thinking, having them further away from the light give more height right? I'm thinking of taking her off the bloom too and giving her 2 weeks of growth. It doesn't seem to be working for autos. Not in this case, might be that she had growing problems after her major root transplant into a different substrate. But she is healthy looking, no problems of sickness or anything lacking, well nothing that the leafs are telling me. So, I'll update if I change her nutes of course and any other changes and that. Will stick to alternating between nutes on every 2nd day and a filtered water in between each other, she will get the same amount of liquid as stated above. 28/1/22 Veg Day 24. Even though I've switched to bloom nutes for this I'm treating her as though in veg. I'm just testing out, as I've read that sensi grow is pointless and giving bloom from the Jump is best. Well, so far, that doesn't seem to be the case, yes, she has gotten much bigger after her first 2wks of slow growing and since then she's taken off. I took the last of her 2 main fan leafs from the first 2 sets, that more or less gives your plant that good looking grow. Yes, she looks naked. I'll update the pic of her later as they are still sleeping. I'm hoping by doing this I'll get light in to the lower nodes, I felt I had no choice as I've had to raise my light way to high for my liking for this plant. It's like 60cm from the top of the plant. So, to help the lower under developed node grow I took the fan leafs that were blocking her, they were growing by like a 1/5 each day so it should be extra energy/food going where it needs to go, and I need it to go there. She is well under developed. I'm thinking she's going to take at least what it would take normally for an auto to grow she is that far behind, cause her sisters on D23 were much bigger and more developed. 29/1/22 So, last night I decided to switch her back to Grow A+B. Gonna finish her off on grow for the rest of week 4&5. 30/1/22 Took the 4th set of nodes off. Decided to switch to Grow coco with her being sooo slow. Really not happy with these results. I think, well, I know, it's down to my amateur skills. I'll give her one more week, after taking the 4th node I'm hoping to see and increase in growth. I also put the pot on top of the bucket I use to pour run-off from the plates from hydros into, so, Its sitting around another 8cm higher than she was. 30/1/22 TDA compost60%+cocohusk30%+perlite10% got a little nute burn showing on leaf. Gonna cut it out later. Nothing I didn't expect, I actually expected it to be a lot worse, cause I changed from bloom to grow and increased the dose 2ml/100ml. And I added nirvana on top of that. So all in all, not as bad as a problem or problems I knew would come up. So far, the risk from changing hasn't hurt it too much. I took the 4th node as it was still into it's very early stages so that energy will hopefully go into growing the 3 sets of somewhat healthy nodes I did leave. Will slow down on the nutes. Probably even leave it for this week and then but I'll continue with Tarantula/voodoo and piranha for the remaining of this week then give another grow A+B of 2ml/100ml of water and same witj T/V/ and P. I'll give 6.3 ph distilled water when needed. pics and ant drastic changes or problems will be recorded but as for now unless that happens I'll update. I might do a PH/PPM test on a sample of the substrate this week to see where it's at. 2/2/22 hmm funny date lol. Anothwe 11 years and it'll be 3/3/33 Anyways, I'm rambling, so looks like my move to give high dose of 8ml/100ml of water if though I only gave around 25ml of each solution it's clearly too much nitrogen. Think im going to flush her. Am not having any fucking luck with this runt. Clearly it was me mesaing around with her that made her that way, in no way am I saying its a troublesome strain, quite a hardy little bastard if im honest. She keeps bouncing back after my endless mistakes. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime

So, week 5 D29 This plant was a sample and sadly I've treated her badly. And she's fighting me on every turn. Trying to get her under control has been a real task. I basically had to keep stripping her to promote growth, so I'd strip an ok developed 2nd set of nodes hoping in turn that will increase the growth on the very underdeveloped 3rd set of nodes, I decided to take the 4th set of nodes as they were only developing and way to far behind, all the stripping in the world wouldn't of helped that grow to match the rest of the plant in such a late stage. So, I dabbled by adding A+B GROW and Nirvana and in doing so caused and excess of nitrogen build up. I noticed it 2 days ago and cut out some pieces as there was leaf degradation so cutting it out stopped the spread on the leaf coming from the top of the 2nd set of nodes. But today I woke up and could see massive leaf deg so straight away I clipped the leaf of carefully from the 3rd set of nodes. As you can see in the pic. It spreaded quickly. The damage is done. I really should have flushed/flooded her, and tried to drain any unwanted gathered nute build up. Causing a burst in the amount of nitrogen build up and was released. So, when it hits the 8hr dark window I'm going to flood her. I'll be putting up sticks through the drainage holes and lifting the base of the pot up, the whole point of the sticks is to break through the 4 layers of different substrate and to make sure, or at least try to prevent fluid build up. Should help. And then I'll leave her to dry out for 3 days and restart the nute process. On a much smaller scale. Here's the water I tested 24hrs after her 1st flush. Have decided to do 3 in a total over 3 days. The plant itself, well, I got to it too late. I think the damage on the new start of the colas on the 3rd set of nodes is already done, they are all burnt/deformed and showing signs of stunted growth. Maybe the only fix at this point is to take the 3rd set of nodes :-( Really, I have 3 options, none of them is a quick fix and will either results in some luck, and she might grow through it. Option 2 Take the 3rd set of nodes and focus on what's healthy. Option 3. Scrap her, leaving nada. Well I think doing that would be stupid. I'm going to try and salvage something out of her. It's not like I can reuse the space for another plant as it's too late to do another. So, I'm going with option 4. I'm gonna run with the 3day flush and see will she grow through it. 3/1/22 2nd flush dropped the PPM 500. Took some leafs of, hopefully it'll help the burnt leafs with growth. 4/2/22 3rd flush. Dropped another 300, after 2nd flush she was standing up the best she has since her growth, clearly she was being destroyed by nitrogen and a crazy EC. The CBD/ZKITTLEZ are topping out at 1520 and the same PH. Think I'll give her 1 more flush to get the PPM to at least 1000/1300PPM 1.2/1.7 EC. PH is ideal. All nutes have been stopped. Except the enzymes of course, what EC is there still needs to be broken down, as just cause she's getting flushed that won't stop the uptake of nutes and growth. Only been giving a light 50ml mix of tarantula/piranha a few hours after her flush. Water was taken out of fridge. Giving cold water, idk if it'll help, all I know is nute uptake is slowed down drastically when water is colder. Dunno how this help if at all. Just giving info of what I'm doing. 8degree water. PPM 65 PH 6.15 1L per flush. 900ml return. Why I give 24hrs in between flushes.. Bad news. Few hrs later I checked and more deg started showing up on 2 leafs on the 2nd set of nodes and then after 3 mre hrs it was appearing on the 3rd set of leafs on the new nodes. Decided to take all off but 1 that was still coming out of its shoot. Will more than likely take that too. I know, I shouldn't be stripping her like that, but, this was really my only option. Leaf deg was just getting worse as time went by. So, I said fuk it. I'm not gonna keep babyin her. So stripped and hope she recovers. We will see. Even if she gives me 20g I'll be happy at this stage lol. Thanks for Reading gottagrowsometime

Week 5 D34 yes, I know but I decided to make a flowering week as this plant is going on a 15/9 with the rest of them. Hoping the growth won't be affected too much with it being such a slight change in hrs on/off. Done another flush, deleted the pic by mistake. PPM came back only dropped another 300, 320 to be more on point. 1395PPM 5.94PH. I know I've added nutes but these won't be given for another 2 days. 9/2/22 D36 So, my stripping is kinda paying off. The leaf that I didn't take ended up dying and degraded, but in saying that there was nt much left, the cola stem I didn't take, well, it has grown, had to do some leaf trimming but I'm nearly sure this plant is coming out the other side of the gate. 100% won't be a big harvest may be 10-15g if I'm lucky, but hey it's not taking up any space other than something light would have been reflected off. So, after what she's been put through any harvest will be a bud miracle. D36.5 Looking like she will keep growing. At this stage im throwinh the whole timetable out the window. She isn't showing any signs of flowering or that the colas have reached their full height yet, I'm hoping she'll at least put on another 10-15 cm before flowering kicks in. But let's see what happens. 11/2/22 Decided to take the underdeveloped stem of the 2nd node, it was not growing at all. Was wasting energy, hopefully I didn't leave it too late and the energy can be used to help her grow. As you can see from my grow question she didn't grow 1cm lol. Anyways, it was a gamble. 12/2/22 only 10hrs since taking that stem and already I have a burst of new growth. Also I put down bug catchers and redosed my tent and rim of pots with peppermint oil and have Neem oil and and organic pest foiler spray at the ready. Hoping to hold pests of for as long as I can. 13/2/22 measured her today topping out at 21cm wth, 5cm since taking that node, and has got really bushy, and all leafs are sticking right up, very very healthy plant atm.. 14/2/22 Can't get over the turn around in this plant. If she keeps growing and all she's doing is stretching her nodes. If she stays in growth for another 1.5-2weeks I can see this, what was a runt becoming my most successful grow out of all my grows, and she was in such a sorry state. If I can fix her, and I'm hoping she'll stay true cause if she starts showing flower in the next week then she'll just be a small harvest but any harvest will be a success, with the condition she was in and I was just going to give her the chop, hoping I get some nice Bud from this hardy little bitch. Be great plant to strip for clones, hmmmm 15/2/22 Have to say, I know it was the hardest plant I have had to deal with, that was down to me testing the supersoil to early and only giving 2 doses and not keeping to the feeding table like the others I used the formula on. It takes a few weeks before you can start adding nutes into it, you need to give the billions of micro enzymes a chance and then you can throw anything with a high PPM and they take it on the chin. MY Zkittlez/CBD organics were reaching 1550 in their 5th week and not 1 sign of any deficiency. Now, this plant seems to be taking after them, no I haven't increased the PPM or gave to high I kept it within 800-1000ppm. I did give 100ml of the mix I give to the organics and that was 1420ppm yesterday and she has reached well so far, no new signs of burns, but a burst in growth 5cm in 3 days. She is going on a 900ppm 6.2 ph mix I was giving my hydros. Increased 100ppm for hydros as I will for this plant next week. 15/2/22 Well, what can I say, this plant has done a complete 180% and has come back fighting. Her structure keeps growing, so sign that she is about to stop extending those nodes, time to get in and start training her up and outwards. REPORT AND RESULTS FROM WHAT WAS DONE THIS WEEK. Well, I had to take a lot of degradated and nitrogen burned leafs and discard of a node that was stunted and had stopped growing, she grew like 10% compared to the other node on the same set. Decided to take her and every since the results have been astounding. Go through the pics and diary yourself. Thanks for reading, Happy growing gottagrowsometime

Week 7 17/2/22 D43 Well, what can I say other than she's a miracle, if you go back over what I put this one through you'll be shocked that she didn't kick her roots a long time ago, she has fought, been pushed to edge, fell over the edge, landed on a wooden spike and then got drowned in toxic waste, ( nutrients ), burnt, battered and had more haircuts in her 7 week life than my granpappy did in 70years. But, hey presto, she's back for more, this time, no stick, just carrot and lots of TLC. Gotta mind my baby, dunno if I'm gonna get a call from the canna social services or not. But all her bruises are nearly gone and no more neglect. I'll do her justice. Sorry little one, now let's help you get to the next stage of your life, leaving preschool heading to high school, (flowering stage), soon. 🎶She's all and packed and ready to go, hey, hey, please don't go, you got at least 2 more weeks to grow🎶!!!! Man the stuff im smoking now isss gooood🤪 18/2/22 Well, she's still growing maybe we will see our 2 week goal before she starts to show sign of flowering, hoping that won't happen yet, if anyone has any thought at just continue growing and not flowering. Maybe I should take her off all the bloom boosters for starters lol. 21/2/22, delighted to report that all nodes are still in veg and growing at an alarming rate internodes, all growing very well, nicely spaced apart for only 5 nodes. Going to start LST and training her upwards and outwards to take the light to lower sites. Atm she's all covered up, but at this stage there only leafs and continued growth from the energy the leafs left on the nodes are taking in. Most of node leafs are exposed to light clearly not some but there pulling in power. 23/2/22 Sry missed a day. She has really changed a lot, starting the flowering process, didn't want it to happen this quick, but by right it should have started 2-3 wks ago I tried keeping her away from sugars, small feeds but since she's started I'm going to be giving her the works. Let's see what happens, fun times ahead! Thanks for reading. Happy growing.

Week 8 D50. Have to say for what she was to what she could be, is nothing short of a bud miracle. I was happy that she even made it out of that stall and only starting flowering mid wk 7 is great. Yeah, another wk of straight growth would have been nice. Measured her finally this wk, and to my surprise she was hitting 44cm 43.5 to be exact. Thats nearly a 20cm growth in a week, for what was a runt. Wow. Feel real comfortable about how she looks, am going to increase overall NPK+CAL+SICLA&SUGARS micros and root stims are just fine. Can start pulling back on the voodoo juice but will give up to harvest. Will increase PPM from 990-1090-1100 range PH will be matched to soils PH 5.9. Feeding times will stay the same. 800 ml bottle mix and gets fed 400ml every 4 days in between that is adjusted PH water 5.9-6 ppm is a little higher due to biobizz PH down 175ppm. Feeds if water or nute mix is every 2 days. D53 3/2/22 I've decided, I'm not going to wait another week, now while she's in pre-flower I'm going to triple her dose of P-K and lower N by half. Also I'll increase sugars. I'll still make sure I stay within my PPM desired range, I'll just have to tweak it and take away some growing nutes and focus on P-K which is key for flowering. I got raw p-k but since she started her life on nutes there's enough p-k in bud candy, sensi coco part b and B-52 to give me that extra boost, while cutting down on part b of bloom which is full of N I should be able to balance it out. Update I've increased all my nutes that focus on p-k and sugars and I've lowered N, hoping to slow down growth and increase flowering. Let's see if I can control this auto in some way. I was able to lower N and increasing p-k and mg and cal with a ppm of 1280 nearly a 300ppm increase I made up a 1l bottle and gave 150ml and will do so every 2nd day with 150ml of 6.3 PH water. I needed to bring the PH down a little in the mix as it was hitting 6.55 so brought it down to match the water feeds to 6.3. PPM stayed the same when added biobizz great stuff. Let's see how this p-k and lower N works out. I know I usually like a PH of 5.9 but higher PH should help increase nute uptake I don't know how much it will work in soil, I'll keep this intense p-k+sugars with 6.3 and just finish her off on the 1l mix over 2 weeks. Might have to make another 500ml but it will be the same dose and then I'll increase sugars and level out N-P-K back normal or start lowering the PPM back down to 9-1000ppm. And 15 days before flush I'll bring her down to 7-800 ppm and then I'm going to try out flawless finish and see how it work in soil cuts the flush down from 2wks to 1wk. But again I'll see how the bud turns out from the flawless finish from the hydros. 4/3/22 This strain is amazing guys, she has some fight in her, she is a testers delight. You punish and punish and she bounces back, like a real lab rat, but much more pretty. Growing nicely on her fill new course of higher nutes, I've carefully read over some of my nutes and basically I've cut out lots of N, and increased the p-k by 100% and lowered the N by around 70%. She is still getting enough, just not as much now she's in flower mode. Thks for reading gottagrowsometime

Week 9 D58 Put around 10-15cm on this week. After my few weeks of growing, I'm happy to say, well compared to what I though growing would be like, as prob many others dif too. I thought, "that plants start on 12/12 from seeds to harvest. Thought was as simple as loading it into soil and like any normal plant just left alone and bang, you get up 2 4-500g per m2. Only if it were flat simple. But, knowing what I do now. And with her entering early flower and she need a lot of growth during the growth phase. She was pushed nearly to death and came back fighting. And by learning what I have it's not just a simple case of giving 2ml/l as recommend by brand. You really gotta look what's in them and when to pull back from N, and push more P-K and sugars to get nice dense buds. My first plant I just went with the bottles guidel8bes didn't watch for N tox cause I though the really dark green was a sigh of a healthy plant, yeah that's how little I knew. It's a challenge but it's truly something I enjoy and all I was doing it for was caused I was tired of funding crime and what that money does to harm ppl, even if it is buying a little weed you are still contributing to ppls suffering and the young kids caught up in their parents drug dealing. As all my grows are on a small scale and purely for me and my partner decided that we'd do it ourselves and in doing so we won't be contributing to criminal activity. It really is a fun hobbie guys, bit of advice though. Make sure you get everything you need. If it's a kit and growing in coco you must have a PH/PPM pen. A basic understanding of the difference between marco/micro/fungi nutes. A clear clean space to operate, if you have young kids. I would use a kit and keep it in a room where you have complete access to and store all your nutes there, as some can be as bad as bleach or worse if taken. Just be careful and mindful. Another thing led lights are the best way to go, especially if there can t be someone around the grow all the time. You can simply set up a smoke alarm that sends you a notification if it goes off. But I wouldn't worry too much about fires unless you are doing DIY set-ups. If you do this, make sure you get a trio board and some sort of ventilation. 11/3/22 coming out of week 9 for this girl. She is such a hardy strain, love her. Going to keep her on the same doses of everything I'll just increase 2 nutes with the highest amount of P-K and that's B-52 and bud candy for next week. Finally I've been able to get the RH down to a more reasonable level at 65% in the tent compared to 85 and 55-58% in the room. Temps during the rest period stat at 21c and when light a are on and end of day it can get up to 26-27c depending on the RH and weather outside. Growth is slowing down just a few odd cm here and there the last 9 days. Lots of stigma forming evenly throughout the grow. Thanks for reading this week Good luck, happy growing.

Week 9 D66. Mad how far she is behind. She only started first signs of stigma, (flowering, pistons, white hairs) 14-18 days ago. So by right you should give any auto up to 55 days of flowering. I know some say 70days from seed-harvest but you start counting once you see signs of flowering, no auto will be done under 40 days, has to have at the very very least 40days and even then she still more than likely could still happily bake for 14days and not bend a leaf in unhappiness. You always wanna go by the trichomes either way. Am pushing the PPM up by a couple 100, she can take it. Am going to give her another 20days on this mix 3 weeks and then change it up by dropping nutes and cutting the PPM at least by half a week before the 2 week flush, (when I say flush, I just mean just flawless finish with no run-off and let the plant finish up on that. This being the course if nothing comes up. But you never know with autos. RH is steady at 65% in the tent and 55-58% in the room temp is 21 with lights off and on its 26c. 15/3/22 Taking a lovely overall shape. Going to have some nice long colas hopefully. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime

Week 10 D70 coming along nicely, still has a ways to go. As she only started stigma 20 days ago, well in or around that. For 5 nodes in total she is doing really well you can see all the energy is focused on making nice dense close together buds that should all form into nice big long colas, well to me, that's the way it looks like it's growing. Only flowering 20days looks a lot longer than that right? What do you think? 19/3/22 As you can see I have the RH as best as I can get in my grow room, I've installed the smart fan and inserted the sensor giving me 57%RH/75F in the tent, with the light off, it's rather hot today, much hotter than normal, it's normally 21c in my room it's 24.5 today. RH is at 50% in room, hopefully by installing my old intake fan in the lowest part of my tent and suck out 80% While 100% gets blown in on top will bring the tents RH to the same as the room, that's the hope anyways. But 57%RH is still okay, not optimal but not too bad neither. Thanks for reading, drop a like or comment so I can do like wise on your diaries. 21/3/22 So, I tried out my new method. Of having my smart intake fan suck in 50RH and a bottom intake fan at the end sucking out older air at a lesser speed had it running for 8hrs, no change in humidity whatsoever just dropped the temp by 1.5c. I think the fact I have a 70x70 with so many plants has set the RH and thankfully it's not what it was which was touching on 80rh at some days. A bigger tent and I'll really be able to dial in my grows now I have all the tools to control RH/TEMP from S/H. For now 57%RH when it's low and 62% when the lights are on for a few hours. Stays around 57-60% atm for around 85% of the time. Temp is constant and doesn't change without my control within a range of 4-6c change difference, this number I have no problem in changing and I'll be making my tent a lot cooler after this wk ends. I'll be keeping her at 18c with lights off and 28 with lights on. As for this plant she is a little gem. For 5 nodes she has a lovely shape and in this plants case there really is nothing that should be done to it at this stage, just let her beauty unfold. gottagrowsometime

This plant is unf..king real guys. She is so sticky and FULL of trichomes, she is going to be serious smoke. Come on harvest. Got a tip, to add some grow for a few feeds/wk and it really has made a difference so far, it was very sticky but now, wow, is all I can say. She stinks of orange zest or something, she'll be a weed to cure for sure 29/3/22 She is very very nice indeed. Very stinky, sticky, full of trichomes. Buds are coming on very nice, had to brace her with a plastic plant tie as one of the 60 long cm nodes bent right down if it was leaning against the tent it for sure would have broken off. Thank the canna gods it didn't happen. To be brought through so much, from what she was to what she is with her 5nodes she has taken off and is a very very nice plant. And again I'm glad she did stall as I was able to get my RH in tent from mad highs of 90% down to 57-60% regularly. The 30% difference has made all the difference in these last few plants. Atm, the CBD organic didn't seem to suffer the same fate has the zkittlez as she had micro nute defs I really think had a bad impact aswel as high RH really hampered the resin/trichomes production in my harvested zkittlez organic. She is leaning on the 100% S but she is still a nice smoke but 21% THC more like 12-15% THC, hopefully this plant will hold its 15%thc she is very stinky/smelly full of resin. Trust me when I say RH over 70% is not good. 45-55% is ideal for THC/RESIN production, 65-70% RH is great for the growth phase not so much for flowering, if you have RH that high, you can still grow nice bud but you will need to have constant good air flow and ventilation flowing throughout the plant. 29/3/22 Really nice smell coming of her, stinks of more an orange zest. Very pungent and the amount of trichomes appearing around the inner sugar leafs looks like mold it's so frosty. Brace seems to be holding her nicely. Very frosty bottom buds, a little small but that problem of uneven buds will hopefully be soon a thing of the past. I've order 4 13.5 inch lm301 Samsung nodes 42leds in each light. Each strip will go on 4 of the poles holding up the tent. They'll go up 45cm and start from there, they are roughly over 40cm long 13.5inchs. Not sure what ppfd they'll put out I'll give that info after I add them up. It'll only add 7.5watts, these are the higher end led strips each have a programme 4,8,12,16 settings and will only be an extra 30watts at full strength they have 4 settings also to control the strength of each light individually. 30/3/22 Decided that after reading/researching I can up my light timing a little and just watch for signs of light stress. Switching from a 15.30-8.30 to a 17-7. More light more yield. I'd like to go to a 20-4 But they were started on a 18-6. I'll watch closely over the next few days for droopy leafs and other light stress signs, but all my research tells me that going back up with autos is fine. Thanks for reading gottagrowsometime

TDA D85. About 30-35days in, just counted 5 weeks of flowering roughly. I think even with that we are still looking at 4-5 wks of growing. Hopefully after finally getting my RH under control I can actually get an auto done in the 9wk period. At this rate I'd of been better off growing a PP for quality. Coming on nicely even with all that said. Very pungent. Loving the orange zest smell. Really strong resilient little lady. She s a fighter for sure. Really not a whole lot to add. Have finished her week on grow and awaiting final results from that, she's back on her full nute list and back to bloom, although it's seemed to have some impact already. Which is great. Thankfully the RH for this mid-late flowering ladies is no where near the 80-90% the zkittlez organic went through, which hurt it, a lot on the strength side of things, current RH is between 55 at its lowest -61 at it's highest. These girls are as sticky and frosty with long nice trichs you can zoom up on in the close up bud shots and see them forming nicely. 31/3/22 New 10watt (total) light bars 48x2 led chips put up on both poles in tent. Showing signs of heavy PK defs. Just down to the fact we are pushing into a more optimal RH range and she is producing lots of resin/trichomes=THC. So, looking forward to this bud. Quick update. After having new dehumidifier going 2 hours have been able to bring the tents RH down to 51%. Used 255watts an hour to get there though. 25l/24hr meaco energy A rated. Over the 2houra I got 1.9l of water. Rooms RH is down to 42%. Will auto come back on when room reaches 50% and turn of after hits 42% about 2-1.5hrs. To battle the PK def think for this week I will focus on bloom nutes b-52-big bud- nirvana. Won't be tweaking the PPM just how I get there will be tweaked. After making my mix she read at a whopping 1760ppm. I gave her 1l and she started dropping a few mls so stopped her there. Will feed again in 4-6 days. Will water in 2-3, depending on how quick it dries it'll be the call for the next feed to be either 4 or 6 days. I'm hoping it's 4 days, as I want this girl to be taking in at least 1l of fluids every 2 days. PH was 6.2 I dropped it down to 6. 3/4/22 PK defs have seemed to slow down, there's been no extra spots/marks show up. Been heavy feeding her. And every time I feed her the little roses box I have her on a little run-off comes out after about 1l only a few mls but within 2hrs the plant has drank it up. 5/4/22 Plant took a turn for the worse. PK def got worse from pics I took to compare them with. Dunno what else I could do or what else could it be other than nute lock. She hasn't haven't had a hard flush with any solid run-off for 7 wks. Has to be nute lock. Done hard flush 2l of 78ppm water came back at 2460 from the Run-off. Way to high. It must be the compost that's holding the nutes/salts longer as compared to light mix/canna soil. Lessons learnt and all that good stuff. She is a frosty 1 for sure. She stinks of orange zest, citrus, fruits galore. She is a wicked strain. 15% THC I can be nearly sure she's there or very close even without a tester. She's oozing trichs/resin. She's sticky to the touch 24hrs not just after coming out of the dark period, even then she's even more sticky. Rest period is so crucial. It allows for sugars and all that good stuff to be sucked up into the bud. It's a lot more complicated than that, but in short, a rest period, increase resin and it bringing up the right stuff from the soil/roots and settles in the bud, for a better bud a long drying time is better so just about 2 hours before chop make sure to dose your plant with water as this will increase the drying period and overal giving you a better bud.. 6/4/22 Last entry for this week. Has been fun. The plant herself is responding to nutes great. She is so frosty I swear it looks like mold from.a distance. That and you can sew the trichs from a distance. Her brace seems to be holding. But when checked her tonight noticed the node I used to brace the fallen over 1 is now also starting to fall the same side, it's just that they are so top heavy and was topped above the 3rd node the nodes are over 60cm long from the stem. Then there's 40cm nodes coming from them. Don't think I'll get much in the way of bud. But msn it'll be the best bud ever. I really feel she's going to fly by 15% THC. Look at her. I swear she's so sticky if you lightly press a bud or leaf fill of them heavy trichs it's like superglue. 6/4/22 YAY, Finally a dehumidifier that works. This thing literally has been running 1 hr. With the grow room door being closed the RH can drop to 45% but with the HEPA filter the smell is gone out the house and it has heated the whole house, it's crazy what this 20l dehuimifier does. Bonkers. Finally I am hitting peak conditions for growing, when my door is closed I can get the RH in the tent to hit 70%+ and now with this machine I can get it as low as 45%, it's only been on 1hr. In my tent this is how much electric it uses. Look at the pic above 218watts in 20c temp 60% RH that's our house when the heating is off by turning it on it drops in the range of 50% after a couple of hours. temp is 23% so I'd say it uses in the mid range so maybe 230watts. Yes, the electricity bill will go up but bye bye gas, as this thing heats out whole house much better. Worth the money, if you have high RH in your tent don't put a dehuimifier in your tent get a good 20l at least or 12l if you keep your grow room door closed. This one is 259£ 330euro. It A energy rated. Won tons of awards and with not having to use the central heating anymore it'll actually even itself out. Great buy, it's really going to transform what I can get out of the bud as for quality and with my tent getting to 70%+ with the grow room door closed and then when in flower I can get it down to 45% and maybe that'll get even better. Thanks for reading this week Good luck, happy growing.

D92. RH hitting peak conditions 44%. Dehuimifier is working 5hrs a day. Maybe another 15 days to go. Hoping to bring her to whole harvest. This half harvest thing is crap. I just want uniformed bud top-mid-low growth. 7/4/22 Bud is coming on real nicely. I'd say as she is she'll give an oz of frosty as f..k bud. With the addition of the lower led lights I'm hoping she'll finish off. As she's in soil. So half harvest isn't really an option as soil turn around is to long. Once you start a process like a flush you kinda have to follow through with it. So, if there is 10-15% of bud that has no more than 15% of white pistils I'll be happy taking her once I feel she's reached the point where the buds stop expanding and focusing on terps. As she is, she's doing really well, has responded to the hard flush really well. PPM was only 490 so she's still eating. Happy days. Will do the test again next week and if she is at feed ppm level I'll know she's finish eating and I'll throw her into a week or 2 of flawless finish and harvest her. So depending on the flush during the week this might be her last week on nutes. Bout 3 weeks in total left. 2 for the flush and a wk left on nutes. Will keep her dosed on micro enzymes for the rest of wk and 1ml/l during 1st wk of flush. 9/4/22 Finished this girl. Some stigma, (white pistils). Put her on overdrive just for 1 week. She's surprisingly still eating, not much 400ppm only. 1150ppm back, so she's coming to her end, sadly the end, that was full of stigma has kinda finished up, 90% of hairs have turned to Amber. I don't know if this is a good thing, but the sugar leafs are getting so packed down around the larf the sugar leafs have coned in on each other, full of tricks, I mean full of it, trim to keep for sure, all long trichs you can see them even with a scope you can see the top colas are fully cloudy. Few clear ones around the lowest end but they'll cloud up in the dark period. Absolutely stinks of orange zest, the tangerine smell is also coming out, full bodied zesty/crit stinky little bitch. I'd say she'll put out 20-30g dry. I'm really happy with what she's going to give me, I'll for sure am going to be roughly trimming her and letting most of the heavily heavily packed sugar leafs coming out of the bud sites. I'd say around 70% of the bud has finished off. If only last week I'd of taken the tops I could have kicked rhe bottom into feeding and finished her off, as most of that stigma was 90% white. Nearly 70% Amber now probably even 80-90% Amber. Around 20% clear around the end. As you can see in the pics, she's DONE!!!! Flawless Finish her for a week, I only gave her a 800ppm feed of overdrive and cal mag extra about 500ml on top of her weeks feed. I'll hard flush her in 4 days. And give her a week on flawless finish. Then I'm gonna hang dry her in the bathroom RH is 55% 19c temp, will have to take her out in morning for a showers and stuff but it'll be a perfect place. Also the house will be a pleasure to smell for our guests. Not saying its normally not, but the smell is normally burning weed, can't beat the fresh of smelly stinky bud. Going to dry this 1 in the long way....10-14 days hopefully. Shell be given 500ml an hour before harvest to prolong her drying time, increase terps and allow sugars to bring out the true taste of this beauty. Dont mind the rust spots. Its not from any def/tox she is 100% healthy. It was just a case of her getting a mix of overdrive 4 weeks ago when she was on big bud. It caused all these rust spots. I've been taking pics and placing something for scale and have been constantly checking and rechecking leafs and glad to say these are just war wounds from a beginners mistake. 4 weeks ago I was juggling 5 different plants and yeah I messed up and she got a dose of overdrive. 13/4/22 Plant looks very frosty. Stinks of orange zest to me more than tangerines. Has a very sharp citrus snap to her, you know what she is straight away. Something very very fruity, very pungent. Not a secret grow but it that way, nor is the zkittlez if ingcognito is your thing. RH climed into the 50's for the 1st time in 4 days without dehuimifier, thankfully it's not a constant thing to run, fuck me it likes KWH. 1 every 3 hours nearly. That's 10hours of my light on full blast. 100 watt light 10hrs of use =1KWH for those who don't know that. Good to know exactly what you are spending on your grow. Your 1st will always clearly be the most expensive. Like nutes/lights/tents even substrates have more than 1 life. So what it comes down to in the end, is how much a month is it costing your bottom line. If you are like me, and not growing in mammys basement, then watts matter. If you have noticed my PPM was double that nearly for the weeks 1st feed, I also cut out some nutes. I'm still giving high PK I'm just reaching my PPM differently is all. Still in the push during flower. But less, get her hungry to really eat as much as she can, pace her. Thanks for reading! Be sure to drop a like so I can check out your grows! gottagrowsometime

Week 15. 50 days of growth, 49 days flowering, stalled in between (growth phase), which was a good thing, it allowed time to go by and 2 plants were gone by the time she was coming into heavy flower and RH was in a much more desired range of 50-55 still high I know but the last 2 weeks I've been able to bring her right down. I know it's a little to late. But it has frosted up. I'm going to try 2 get more trichs for her final week. I've taken most her fan leafs and some sugar leafs, will hopefully send the plant into an overdrive of sorts and will force the plant to defend itself releasing more sugars and movemebt of fluids to stressed parts. Also I took half of lots of sugar leafs and the remaining fan leafs I cut halfs off. Dunno if this will help but I'm trying new things here, well new for my understanding, not new new (Targeted defol to get extra trichs/resin). Put her on a flush, just 3l she was still eating ppm was 150 from 1l of run-off I caught tap water is 78ppm. Topped her up with flawless finish today her 1st 1l 1 9f 2 for this week she'll get water then another flawless finish on day 6 and ill keep her on that and 1 more watering tben imto dsrk windoe 36-48hrs. Will hang dry, hopefully the whole plant. And will give her a l of water before harvest to prolong drying time for a 10-14 day dry at 55-60%rh 19-21c. Thanks for reading. This will possible be the last update if things get frontier as a result of what I did I'll post updates but what I'm gonna do is already planned. So update will only be on if quality has improved by eye. 16/4/22 Targeted defoliation and trimming the sugar leafs, (be sure just to take some leaf, not frosted). It'll send your plant into overdrive and it'll think she's been eaten alive and it'll force her to defend and prop herself up increasing in resin/long trichs. This is all theory btw. As there is no real way to tell if this works, you'd only know by growing this stain many many times and doing 50/50 And you might, might be able to tell if it's had an impact. But it wont hurt, that's if u don't take too much. So, I checked over and over and over her. Ponderd and then paused, smoked a few blunts, many bongs later and an hour goof. After taking a look after her 12hr rest her stigma is so little and she's flushed. Stopped eating more or less. Maybe she could do with another week. But sadly, 102 days is all I can Will be in the 55-57 day window of flowering after rest. So Barneys are solid in flowering time, id say she'd of only been an 12-13 wker like the zkittlez organic, as when there is little trouble or stalls barneys grow windows are usually spot on. They both gotta come out tbh . Zkittlez I'm going to push to the last day I possibly can. I plan to heavily feed this girl with water tonight (TDA), tomorrow and then 1hr again before harvest. This hopefully will prolong the drying time. When chopped all her sugar, fan leafs will be left on. After she dries for 4-5 days I'll trim off all sugar/fan leafs without frost and then after she's fully dry I'll trim to get to the end product and of course I'll be smoking all frosty trim, if there's enough I'll try my hand at bubble hash. We shall see, either way it'll be smoked as it's frosty as crap. This plant has been a true gem to work with Barneys has truly out did themselves. This was my tester, it was a freebie test seed that was dropped and I was just going to plant q zkittlez but ended up putting my hand in my pocket and guess what, there was a TDA seed it. I was sitting down and dropped it, thought fell through the sofa after it popped out of the seal and thankfully she got planted, as she would of been just another zkittlez, I love it and all, but I'm a little tired of smoking the same stuff tbh. It's lovely and all, but a bit of variety and all that good stuff! Happily I'm going to get some nice and frosty TANGERINE DREAM AUTO. Who knows what she'll give. Feel free to have a pop dry weight or wet. To all our Ukraine brothers&sisters much love to you and your families. Stay safe, well as safe as you possible can that is.

Really really enjoyed doing this one. Around 300 Gram Wet. With - stalk/leafs/stems will probably give 40+ grams which is great, as if you look back as to where she was and what she turned into. Wow is all I can say. She is really a true Gem of a auto with a 15% THC and around 5% CBD. I'm hoping she's going to make for a nice day time smoke. She taste great will give reports on fast dry VS slow hang dry in roughly 2 weeks and then in the jars for 2+ wks and I'll be happy to smoke it up for sure. Keep it real ppl, and thank you for reading. Fast dried bud is in 42hrs later. 8.6 + 3g +2g I took during her heavy flowering and its all bud no stems or crap. And as for the trim. Well it's frosty as crap and I removed 95% of what was frosted out, all trim with even some frost was binned. Couldn't be bothered with it. 13.5G dry so far. As for the bud itself even quick dried it's fantastic, it's so nice to have some different bud to smoke. It has a full taste and all. But it has a light earthy, planty smell mixed in with the fruits and orange zest. As for the hang drying bud, that's a different animal all together, no planty/earthy smell. Just pure orange zest with a strong aroma of tangerines kicking in. As for the critics well, yum is all I can say. Again, I do not have the palate yet, or sense of smells. So sorry about my poor report. As for the high I'd say she's defo leaning more on the INDICA side. I'd say 80/20. The air dried bud is potent and pungent but doesn't hold a candle to the hang dried bud. She has kept her full smell, if anything it's gotten more intense and stronger, the smell is very lasting if you get me. I'll add a more detailed report 2moro. Baked.com here atm. Happy growing, stay safe gottagrowsometime
