This is my comeback grow after a 5 year break, I'm really really happy for being able to grow again :)
I'm trying to keep things simple and easy on this first run.
I've used jiffy pellets to germinate them for the first time instead of the ol' paper towel method because I wanted to minimize the stress but also because I always curious to try it. After 3 days in the dark inside of a pot, the cotyledons leaves showed off practically at the same time, and after one day over the light panel they seem really happy.
This is also my first time using LED's and autos, I'm looking forward to see how this goes.
Next step is moving the pellets to the 5 gallons fabric pots filled with Biobizz Light mix and watch them grow while I do some LST during the veg weeks.
Feel free to drop any comments or tips, all positivity is appreciated 🙏
Have a nice week growmies ✌️
Hellos fellows growers :)
My plants had a little bit of a light burn in beginning of the week due to the reason I don't own a PAR meter 😅 I've tried to follow the par map available at the Mars Hydro Website but I've found that it was a bit too much for my plants. As soon as I've noticed the light burn, I did some research on the Mars Hydro TS1000 that I own, and now the lamp are 28" above the plants.
I'm really happy to have this dimmable light to work, it has a learning curve of course, but it seems very customizable for my needs. :)
Besides that, the first week went pretty smooth. I'm really happy with the strength of this genetic from Royal Queen Seeds.
Have nice week! See ya
People with experience using the MH TS1000, between 24"-30" at 25% seems like a reasonable height to put my light over the plants in initial vegetative state at my 2x2ft tent? Thank you! :)
I'm rather new to led lights. I use the bigger version of that light the ts3000. I've got my light set at 36 inches and run it on full power all the way through, my friend who has the same light as you ts 1000 does the same.
I think it's strange how you got light burn when running it at 25-30%. Have you used a pre loaded soil ? Could be that other than light burn. I've fried a few seedlings using the wrong soil and or lights. We grow and we learn.
Hello fellow growers :)
This week went pretty smooth. I've listened to some guys that answered my last question about the light height and did some research also, and I ended up putting the MS TS1000 20" above the plants with 75% of potency. The plants responded very well and I'm happy with they development so far :)
Did two waterings this week, in the second one I've introduced the first bit of bio-grow to them.
Have you all a nice week ✌️

Hello fellow growers :)
This week went pretty smooth as well, the plants are developing really nice and I've introduced some LST to them to maintain the canopy even without stressing these auto auto plants.
I was eager to do some defoliation after some huge fan leaves artes to pop off, but since I'm trying to minimize the stress, I've just rearranged the fan leaves using the same wire as well.
Have a nice week you all 💪🌱😎🙏
Felix
Hello fellow growers,
This week my plants had an explosive growth, I've managed to maintain my canopy even doing a little bit of training every two days approximately.
All of three showed their pistils meaning the end of vegetative cycle for these ladies, and now I've switched to flower fertilizers.
I'll make a selective defoliation after they finish their stretch around week 3-4 of flowering.
Have a nice week you all 🙌
Felix
Hello fellow growers,
Sorry for the late update, in the next week the journaling will be up to date ;)
All of three started to flower, and It has been pretty smooth. I am dealing with the high humidity now in the raining season, but soon I'll have a new dehumidifier in the tent.
Untill next week,
Felix
Hello fellow growers,
I've dealt with some issues related to high humidity due to the rain season here where I live. I had bought this small 0,5L dehumidifier but when the raining days came, it showed useless 😅
So I ended up buying a bigger 10L dehumidifier and now this problem is in the past.
The plants are doing their last stretch before bulking up, and they look fine. Not much Lst to do now, just little adjustments to keep the canopy even.
See you next week,
Felix 😎
Hello fellow growers,
This week I've made a light defoliation in some leaves that were blocking the bud sites.
I've kept feeding the plants with the bloom fertilizer with a small amount of the grow fert also to avoid too much yellowing of the leaves.
Now the plants are bulking up and I can wait to see the results of the work.
That's it for the week, see you next time 🙏
Felix
Hello fellow growers,
Up untill last week the plant aren't smelling super strong, but now they have a super strong sweet cookies-ish smell, and I'm loving it 😋
Also, I'm very pleased to see the differences between three phenotypes of the same strain. Each one have different characteristics like one that is kind of turning the leaves and some calyxes into dark purple while the other two keep it just small nuances of this colors. I've chosen this strain mainly because of the terps profile which I love it, but the different colors are a pleasant surprise :)
This strain also showed to be very resistant to stress and grew strong all the time so far. I can't wait to taste the final product.
I wish you all a great holiday if you celebrate it somehow, see you next week.
Felix ✌️
Hello fellow growers,
Last week went pretty well, with little distractions. I kept feeding them and checking the trichomes from time to time.
The pheno #1 which started flowering one week before the others is almost in time to start the flush.
From now on I will just keep removing any yellow leave, watering and checking for trichomes.
Untill next week.
Happy new year to everyone ✨
Felix
Hello fellow growers,
This will be last week of feeding for these plants, I've been checking theirs trichomes for some days and and I will start a 2 week-long flush to make that good white ash when I'll smoke it 😋
I wish I could take some good photos of trichomes to show you here, but my mini microscope doesn't attach to my phone's camera unfortunately.
Except for some problems due to my old ph meter this run went pretty smooth so far, and I'm pretty happy with it.
I can't wait to see how it will taste like, because the sweet smell is insanely good :)
Untill next week ✌️
Felix
Hey guys!
This week my pheno #1 was harvested after 12 days of flush. I forgot to mention that I've been flushing her before the others because she matured her trichomes earlier. She also started to flower a little more than a week before so I was expecting it. :)
It was a good run for her I think, ended up with some dense buds that are drying in my dyi dry box, because I still have two other plants running in the tent. My house smells good 👍
I thought about doing the flush in the other two like I said last week, but watching their trichomes development I gave them one more week of feeding, because I think they still have some bulking to do.
About the harvest of #1:
I've ended up with 334g wet weight, and I will share all the photos and data in the harvest week with all together.
Some of the buds are so frosty and they have like small resin balls that dripped from some parts! I've never seen this before in any grow of mine, but I've seen this at another diary here from the same strain. What a pleasant surprise!
Have you all a great week,
Felix ✌️
Hello fellow growers,
Another week went by, and looking for the trichomes development every other day, I've noticed that the plants still have some bulking and maturing to do, so I gave another week of light feeding to them.
The buds are looking really dense and the smell is delicious 😋
The phenotype #2 untill now had only leaves with the purple color but not that the buds are becoming mature, the calyxes are also turning in purple 💜
The #1 that I've harvested is now dry, trimmed and curing in mason jars :) I'll input the data with the others later.
Thanks for everyone who's been checking in my diary, it's has been a blessed run so far. See you next week.
Felix 😎✌️
Hello friends!
Not a lot to report this past week, just some days bulking and flushing for my plants. I've been giving her only plain tap water from the last 9 days, and they are maturing really well.
Pheno #2 turned purple even more, now the calyxes have this lovely color too.
Pheno #3 looks like still can do some bulking, but the trichomes are almost where I want :)
I'm really pleased of how it all came so far, and really impressed to see such a difference in these 3 phenotypes. I can wait to try them all 😅
I'll chop them down this week, and I will keep you updated.
Have a great week y'all!
Felix
This strain was definitely a blast to grow!
This is my first auto grow, and I'm really please with the results.
I was expecting more genetic variability in autos than photoperiods, and these three plants showed me exactly this!
I had three distinct phenotype, even though they shared a similar plant structure and bud formation, each one ended up really different from each other, which for me was a great surprise!
Phenotype #1: This plant rushed to finish way before the others, and with a small structure, it get really nice dense buds, with almost no popcorns.
After smoking some of these alone and with friends, I think that this plant got more of the Skunk side of it's breeding.
The smell is really skunk, with a little bite of frozen yogurt, giving a little bit of sourness.
It is a really nice smoke for the day, helping me with my back pain throughout the day.
Wet weight: 333g, trimmed dry bud: 63g
Phenotype #2: This plant was kind of the dark horse on this run for me, it didn't had any issues growing out, but untill the third week of flowering it was just average to me. It got a really nice deep purple color in the leaves, and then coloring even the calyxes with this beautiful color at the end of flowering.
Besides it's appearance, it got a really nice bud formation and I think that it got the most out of my LST training.
The buds are really dense, going a little bit more to the sativa side speaking of bud formation. The smell, damn! It smell so good! For me it is a really nice mix of blueberries, earth notes, skunk, but this all with a really nice sweet profile.
This is the one that I got more amber trichomes at the end, around 25%, and the couchlock is real folks! It hits so hard that you'll find getting up from your couch after a fat one, a huge task 😂
Definitely my favorite to smoke at the end of my work day ;)
Wet weight: 480g Trimmed dry buds: 79g
Phenotype #3: This one is my champ! It produced like a beast, with some heavy dense colas. From the beginning it was the one that grew more, had more bud sites and the one that produced it more.
It responded really well to the training too, even though I think that I could had spread out a little more.
The buds smell like passion fruit! They are so citrus yet so sweet that I could eat one 😂 The taste is delicious like the smell, and it goes untill the end of the joint. About about the high, it is definitely the more sativa one, with a punch like the Pheno #2 but with less body high, and much more mental. I harvested it with less amber trichomes tho ;)
Super pleased with, and this is choose to smoke during my work day 😂 It gets me really creative and active 👌
Wet weight: 615g Trimmed dry buds: 116g
I'm really pleased with the work that RQS put in the breeding selection, this strain is definitely a go to for any beginner, and to someone with a little bit of experience, it can be a game changer in terms of yield.
Well, it was my first diary here, and I'm really happy to had found this amazing community that is so eager to help!
It gave me the opportunity to win the first giveaway in my life 😂 And it was from RQS! These seeds are in my new grow diary, and I really thankful for all the gift received! A special thank to Pol from the RQS staff!
A special thanks to everyone who watched me grow here, and I hope to contribute with the community more and more!
