Placed Seed on Wet paper towel and left it in the dark for 3 days.
When the root was 2cm long placed seed in JIFFY. I humidified Jiffy with 0.5ml/l of BioBizz RootJuice and Atazyme.
Took 7 days in total to start Day 1.
12/04/2023 - Day 1 : Placed Outside in the morning, Jiffy was shaded so it didnt get too hot on the roots. Left her ouside for 2 days as it was not raining.
15/04/2023 - Day 3: Roots just perfurated Jiffy, time to place her in the Pot and feed. After that just left her to be.
Didnt feed anymore this week as it rained and the plant was doing fine
Day 7 - She´s turning slightly light green
This week she looked stunted, after the rain she stoped growing, maybe due to too much humidity? Did no want to stress her anymore, so this week i didn´t do much. Sorry i lost the pictures of this week as i got stressed, just like the plant, and deleted fotos and thought about not doing this journal anymore. I did no give up to my thoughts and continued!
Almost thought of giving up this diary but i kept going. This week was a journey, she started improoving around the day 16 (28/04/2023) so i fed her on the next morning and started fish-mix and CalMag.
And boom next 3 days she beautifully recovered, got some great green leaves and here´s the moment i decide to HST.
Day 21: Topped the plant. Let´s see how she does
After i topped the plant i didnt feed her right away. I let her recover.
06/05/2023 - Day 24 i finally watered the plant with nutrients.
07/05/2023 - This day has been awesome. At the end of the day i have noticed 2 new sprouts! One on top and other at the very bottom, below the coityledons! I will start LST soon so these new sprouts get light and start growing! I start to think it will be a challenge get this plants branches equally spread, but i´ll go for it anyway.
08/05/2023 - Day 26 i started with the LST. Just fixed main branch and bent it pointing to where the sun rises. This is very important when LST´ng outdoors. Always point your plants to where the sun rises so when she grows she points to the sunset.
This week i added Alg-a-mic to help the plant recover from all the HST and LST. She seems to be fine and recovering fantastic. Will this be a monster Autoflower? ✌️
10/05/2023 - She´s growing well, i left her growing 2 days. Now i´m aplpying more LST and start to question: Should i top her once more? I´ll let her grow a bit more and watch. Also noticed a deficiency, i think it´s copper excess due to Acti-vera or Root Juice. Next feeding i´ll cut on Acti-Vera and give half of Root-Juice.
12/05/2023 (Day 30) - She´s growing well, won´t feed her yet as the soil is still moist. Thinking about HST already, but i´ll let her grow a bit more
This week arrived my Plagron Sugar Royal, so i´ll add it aswell :)
Day 31 - Today i noticed some more healthy new growth so i decided to top her again and LST´d just a bit
Day 32 - Didnt feed her yet, soil looks dry but pot is pretty heavy. Also her leafs are touching the soil so i dont want it to be moist.
Day 35 - Slightly LST
18/05/2023 Day 36 - Today i finally fed her after 1 week without feeding. Kept almost the same feeding from last week, just removed root juice and alg-a-mic and rised MagNifiCal to 1,5 ml/L
Day 37 - Today she stretched nicely and i noticed her first pre flowers so preflowering begins, next fedding i´ll add 1ml/L Alga Bloom and Top-Max and will slowly rise up to 4ml/L
Day 39 - Today i fed her again, added 1ml/L Alga Bloom and 1ml/L Top-Max and rised MagNifiCal to 1,8 ml/L. Has been hot and dry these days. (for my zone).
Day 40 - She´s growing well. This afternoon i sprayed under her leafs with Alg-a-mic. Soon i´ll defoliate her, so i want to give a good dose of vitamin b so she recovers beautifully.
Day 41 - This morning sprayed her again before sunrise. I wont defoliate yet. Pot is already kind of light, so tomorrow is feeding day.
Day 42 - Today i defoliated, did some LST and fed her. Added 0,5 ml/L Alga Bloom, making 1,5 ml/L in total. 😃
Day 43 - She is streching! Did some very carefull LST. I think she wants more N, i´ll add 1ml/L of Fish-Mix to see how she responds.
Day 45 - Fed her today, nutrient amount corresponds to the chart above.
Day 47 - Explosive growth continues, i think she loved the extra fish-mix! See diference between days 44 and 47! Leaves have darken a bit, but due to GD image coding, i dont think you can tell so well.
Day 49 - She´s pretty happy, did dome minor LST adjustments. I think she is finishing her stretch. Next week will arrive my Carboload and Big Bud by Advanced nutrients, which i will introduce :) Maybe with foliar
This week will arrive Bug Bud and Carboload by Advanced nutrients, let´s see how she responds :). Next week will rain a lot, so i will prepare myself and start giving her Botryprot by Prot Eco to prevent mold.
Day 50 - She´s healthy. today is the first foliar day. I used 2,5ml/L of Botryprot. Overall she looks very happy, maybe needing some PK. She´s starting to have some fresh blueberry aroma. Fingers get sticky
Day 52 - Feeding day. I added 1ml/L Alga Bloom making a total of 3ml/L. Sprayed her today again.
Day 55 - Has been hot these days, feeding day today again. Today i added 1ml/L Bid Bud, 2ml/L Carboload and 1ml/L Alga Bloom. As she´s healthy i didn´t feel i needed to slowly introduce. Let´s see how she responds, but my experiments are going well :) I´m confident.
Day 57 - Foliar spray today again. The storm will come in strong.
Day 58 - I started seeing these yellow/brow spots, maybe its a calcium deficiency? I have been giving her calcium so it could be a ph problem. I´m also worried because my neighbor tree has leaf septoria so it could be it aswell, i will keeping a real close eye.
Last night rained heavily, so today i sprayed her again w/ Botryprot. Humidity here is really high, i think it´s already helping! Next 3 days will continue raining. When raining stops, i´ll spray when possible.
Day 61 - Today i fed her the above chart. We are in week 3, so i cut Fish-mix as she´s focusing on her flowers now. The deficiency stopped developing so im happy, but im always seeing crickets on my plant. I remove all of them by hand, regardless every time i get back i see 3 at least. They are loving the blueberry. Forgot to mention i added acti-vera this time, to help stalks get stronger and healthier. Let´s see how she reacts to it, when she was young she didn´t enjoyed acti-vera
Day 64 - These last days have been very hot, with a maximum of 30ºC. Will feed her tomorrow at the beginning of week 4. Will keep same feeding, she didn´t complaint about acti-vera now. :)
Day 66 - Today i fed her, kept same feeding as lat week, will only feed acti-vera every couple times. She´s been very healthy im very happy. Im still confused about the "rust" spots, but it´s not spreading.
Day 68 - These last couple days was cloudy. Today probably will rain. She´s smelling :) Has a very fresh greenish blueberry smell.
Day 69 - Today was a hard day. I woke up and the bottom leafs were yellowing and she wasn´t happy. Is it N deficiency or overfeeding? Or maybe fading already? Will keep a close eye and watch how/if it develops. Spotted leaf septoria and removed infected leqfs right away and also spotted some rot in one bud, which i removed. Cricket bites are exposing the plant. Let´s keep strong and help the plant fight and recover. I need to get neem oil
Day 71 - Today i fed her, but now i am doubting myself as im thinking i should have flushed at least once with ph´d water. Is she fading already at this stage? I´ll work to keep things in control. Today i also slightly defoliated her, removed inside and top fan leaves that were shading the buds mostly to also improve airflow, as buds are getting shaped. I also want to keep leaf septoria, bud rot, and other diseases away.
If I’m not mistaken I believe then have a little more magnesium than they like a good plain ph watering 2-4 should do the job. OR they just received the food and need a little time for transformation and adaption
She´s smelling beautifully this week. Its pungent odor is getting stronger and buds are really starting to get covered by trichomes. Sticky af
Day 73 - Feeding today. Will increase Atazyme by 1ml/L and gradually increase big bud up to 2ml/L (Today i fed 1,5ml/L Big Bud). Also will gradually increase Top-Max up to 4ml/L.(today i fed 1,5ml/L)
Day 76 - Has been very hot these days. Today i arrived and soil was completely dry, but the plant was ok. She´s starting to show beautiful colors, lets see how this pheno flowers. :) I fed her today and just increased Top-Max from 1,5ml/L to 2.
Day 77 - She is getting really colorfull and beautiful. Buds are growing great, i dont see any complaints from her. I am removing dying leafs to help light reach every bud. Has been very hot these days, at night aswell (≈22ºC).
Day 80 - Today i already fed her 4ml/L Top Max. She is happy. These last 2 days were windy so temperature dropped a bit at night comparing to 4 days ago (was like 22ºC). This week i also completely removed magnifical (CalMag). I think i´ll harvest in about 15 days. Today i also fed her Acti-vera. Checked trichomes for the first time just in case, they are still clear as expected, i just noticed some amber at the tip of the leaves. I´ll just ignore, as i like my trichomes more amberish. Today afternoon, at the so called Golden Hour i took some beautiful pictures. The fading is really beautiful on this plant. The smell also evolved from greenish fruity blueberries to a more woody/hashy blueberry, dense aroma i personally like it very much.
Day 82 - This evening i defoliated, removed dying fan leaves and the ones covering lower buds. She´s fully purple on top now, i am hoping to harvest at end of week 8 or 9 of flower, not sure yet. Wont water her yet, i´ll let soil dry well.
Day 83 - Today i watered her with plain pH´d water.
Day 87 - Feeding day today. Removed Acti_Vera completely. She´s really starting to look mature. Tomorrow ill check trichomes. Also slightly defoliated dying leafs and to get more light at lower buds. They´re also developing well.
Day 90 - Still see some clear trichomes. Will keep the plan i had in mind, ill feed her one more time and start flushing at the end of this week. This beast is really getting beautifull, love this fruity hashy blueberry aroma. Fingers really get sticky.
Day 91 - Last feeding today.
Day 93 - She´s really getting mature, so today i will start flushing. At the end of next week i´ll harvest. Flushed 3L of pH´d water (around 6)
Day 94 - 13/07/2023 Start of 8th Week of Flower and FLUSH
Day 95 - Buds are starting to have that final golden color, harvest really is arriving. I could harvest now but i want to flush this plant properly. Today it started to rain and buds are all wet. When it stops raining i´ll check the plant and shake it to remove water. The plant love it but humidity is really high here and mold can forms even when it´s not raining. I´ll check trichomes when possible aswell.
Day 96 - Today rained in the morning, but after midday sun started to shine. Had some minor mold problems which i removed immediately, but nothing really to worry , this strain is tough aswell. I checked trichomes, i already have some amber but i think i saw some clear ones here and there. My instinct is telling me to harvest now, but my experience wants to flush this plant properly. I think i should have started to flush earlier, but i did not regret as i want to try out and let a plant really mature. After all im am not that experienced.
Day 97 - Today the pot was already kind of dry so i watered her to help the flushing process and i think this will be the last watering.
Day 99 - Here i just think i took some really cool pictures, for me at least! 😄 I´ll let the soil dry well so i can harvest with less humidity possible
Day 100 - Harvest time! Will hang her completely upside down. RH=58% and 23ºC at almost midday. Hanging them in my bathroom
Day 105 - Drying finished today! Was faster then i expected but im mid summer so its hard to maintain proper drying temperatures
Im SUPER happy with this diary, @Fast_Buds and the Grow Diaries Team! This website has helped my improve my growing skills in a way i couldn´t imagine.
Having a clear, imaged, reported diary where you write everything you do, really helps you understand your mistakes and see where you could have donw better comparing to how others did!
Also another big thank you to the GD Team for having me tied 3rd at the FastBuds 2023 Outdoor Grow Contest and to the very kind @Fast_Buds Team 🙌
Keep on Growing!!
