Budfella First I put the seeds into a glass of water and then used peper towel method. After three days they sprouted but the Auto Orange Bud after had difficulties getting rid of the shell of the seed which has hindered its growth, affectionately I calle it Stephen Hawking

Budfella Auto Orange Bud's a bit behind of the other 2. Auto NL and Auto Shiva Skunk seem be fine. I was away for about a week and had to water them with clay stacks and fortunately when I came bak everything was ok

Budfella Everything continues to be on track. Auto Orange Bud seems to be recovering and hope catches up with Auto NL and Auto Shiva Skunk. Keeping an eye on the ph which seems to be a little off (5.9). Tonight it is time to feed them so I' pour a solution between 6.8 and 7 hoping that the pH will be in the range of 6 and 7.

Budfella So far it all looks like a walk in the park. I've been careful not to overwater and keep the ph under control. Fortunately the Orange Bud Auto is developing well although she seems to be a week behind Northern Lights Auto and Shiva Skunk Auto so I am feeding her like she is 3 weeks old and not 4.

Budfella So finally got the runoff PH on 6.2 and a PPM roughly at 850. Was a bit worried about some yellow spots on a few leaves but didn't spread. Other than that everything looks in ok and both Northern Lights and Shiva Skunk are already showing signs of flowering (little white hairs are coming out).

Budfella So this week I took the plunge and did some pruning since I've read you can do it up to the second week of flowering without affecting growth. Fingers crossed. The RH was getting out of hand with a range up to 73% which worried me but now is below 60, I guess I have to water a little less. Very excited to see how the buds are forming.

Budfella OB has had a growth spurt this last week as she has entered in full puberty. The other two sisters NL and SK are looking good too, they've formed a lot of buds. Next time for sure will try lst.

Budfella This week the Orange Bud has stretched out impressively and surpassed its sisters in height I guess it's quite usual her being a sativa vs her indica cousins. RH is more under control at around 55%. Northern Lights is performing great and looks like if I had done an lst which is not the case. Shiva Skunk however is the one producing the most tempting buds. looking forward to the next weeks.

Budfella Managing the RH below 60 has been quite a challenge. Don't know if buds have the correct size or density as expected in a ninth week? Your comments are welcome...

Budfella My babes are in their 13th week and some trichomes are starting to turn milky so I guess this weekend I'll have to cut them down. It's going to be sad to kill them but what the heck when I see those buds and colas all I can think of is flyin high in a Brooklyn sky...

Looking real nice pal. Made me feel at ease also keeping tabs on this. Mine have finally started to flower, the 3 I've got are going to be huge so always a bonus. I've got 2 different phenotypes, one is really stocky and short, the other 2 are long and stretchy. Your diary doesn't say your using big bud, if not get using that and overdrive buddy for big fat nugs.

@Aldo90, I'm using both Big Bud and Big Candy but next week switching Big Bud for Overdrive. I use an app called BudLabs check it out.

Aldo90 commented3y ago

@Budfella, I use them both also, both are the same thing. Keep using the big bud and overdrive, don't drop it like the chart says. Both are pk boosters. We want as much pk as possible in flower. Overdrive is great as a ripener but I always use them both.

@Budfella, bud candy also, is just sugar you can keep adding that in till the end. I'll add it once a week at times sometimes every time. The root stims, voodoo juice is the best one. That stuff gives you massive roots=massive plants.
