Hi
I would like to introduce you to my first ever, cobbled together, but so far so good, growers' garden.
I welcome and look forward to your ideas and advice.
Germination done in between cotton pads.
The one seed that didn't germinated was bigger and darker than the others(slightly).
This week was about tryin to find the settings to keep temps and humidity.
At some point poor ladies had 33 Celsius with 27%humidity, and at some point it was 17 Celsius with 99% humidity.
They seem to be very very strong, although now we are running at the correct temps and himidity levels.
2.05 Day15: Week 3 has started.
From the next watering new nutrients will be added.
The ladies taking nice the techniques so far, as i can see with my amateur eyes :D
2.06 Day16: New nutrients added.
2.07 Day17: They growing fast at this point.
2.08 Day18: OjBuddy started to pre-flower.
2.09 Day19: Some leaf tips on the Skywalkers started to turn yellow'ish. I don't know why is that yet. Maybe slight nutrient overdose?
2.10 Day20: Only water added today.
2.11 Day21: End of week 3, at this point all the autoflowers started to preflower.
02.12 Day 22: By the start of the 4th week, all autos showing signs of flowering. SBP1's FIMing was so successful, it grew so many new stems i cant even count. While the other, as if nothing had happened grows upwards further, Seems like i FIM'd the FIM. Today she will have another FIM.
02.13 Day 23: Today watered, everyone's healthy.
02.14 Day 24:+
02.15 Day 25: Today some training, pruning, waiting for the results.
02.16 Day 26:+
02.17 Day 27: Today watered. Soil got close to PH7 so i used some PHdown.
02.18 Day 28:+
The values given under Grow Conditions reflect the moment on the last day of the week.
New week, new hopes.
My goal to have multiple tops on all plants while keeping them at the same height, seems to work very well so far.
02.19 Day29: Tomorrow adding new light, and set to 13/11.
02.20 Day30: Pruned the 1/4th of the bottom. Tried to water them in the afternoon. Giving them 2ml Bio-pH- instead of 0.2. by a mistake. Fast i gave them Bio+ 1ml in 3dl water. I was kinda sure thats it, i killed them. Now they are growing "1 cm per hour." WOW.
02.21 Day31:At this point i found out my soilmeter is broken and it is broken for a long time. Totally have no idea about my soil's PH.
02.22 Day32:Only watered today. Upgraded the light.
02.23 Day33:Today's water:2ml bioheaven, 1ml growth accelator, 2ml biogrow, 3ml molasse, 1ml topmax 1ml bloom 0,5ml biodown.
02.24 Day34:+
02.25 Day35:Today's water:2ml bioheaven, 1ml growth accelator, 2ml biogrow, 2ml molasse, 1ml topmax 1ml bloom 0,2ml biodown.
Week6
The ladies looking healthy, i decided to buy a new home for them, arriving in 2 days. They are moving to a 100x100x200 tent, with new air-filter and a terrarium humidifier. Lights this week is at 170W.
02.26 Day36: Only watered today.
02.27 Day37:Nothing to mention.
02.28 Day38:Fed today.
02.29 Day39:Today we built the new place for our ladies with my girl. I think it looks good! I found out i might been unterwatered them for the whole growing.
03.01 Day40:Seems like the ladies really love the new place. They are spreading already.
03.02 Day41:I Suspect some nitrogen overdose, otherwise they are doing well. Switched light schedule from 19:45/4:15 to 17/7.
03.03 Day42:Today's water: Topmax, Heaven, Bloom.
Im not planning to change anything this week. Tryin to find the cause of my leaf tip errors.
03.04 Day43:To provide more light, I have TOPed the SBPs. I plan to put them in 12 hours after the autoflowers are ready.
03.05 Day44:Nothing to mention.

04.13 Day83:
Amazing Strain! It smells like fresh orange peel mixed with weed. Tastes the same :D
Very energetic, euphoric high, daytime smoke!
I wish i started with a bigger tent, so i could let her grow bigger, but im very happy with my 30G of dry good stuff.
Thank you for the free seed DP, it really is a amazing strain!
I think i will grow the photo version in the future.

There were 3 of them, all three turned out different.
They grew differently, smelled differently and had different buds.
They were not tasty after drying for 7-10 days.
After a week of curing, things were much better.
I can say here that they are all completely different.
One has a classic grass smell, one is citrus, the third is skunky.
Since it was my first try so unfortunately I overfed them first, then waited too long to start feeding them again so they were all nutrient deficient.
For me, they are all 9 stars.

Last day of week 16.
I was struggling a little bit getting the soil optimal for these 2.
A lot of leaves died, but fortunately things look better now, I really like the plants.
I do not add all these nutrients to 1 watering, its more like for the week.
Week17 started today. Switced to 1212.
24.05.06 Day106, F56 They got only phwater today. 4Liters Moved the lights 5cm away, as i feel like they get too much light.
24.05.07 Day107, F57 Nothing been done today.
24.05.08 Day108, F58 Today's water:4L filltered water+biobizz's, 1100PPM, 6,34PH
24.05.09 Day109, F59 Nothing been done today.
24.05.10 Day110, F60 Nothing been done today.
24.05.11 Day111, F61 Today's water: 4L water+biobizz's, calmag, no bioheaven. 1040PPM, 6,4PH
24.05.12 Day112, F62
@gottagrowsometime, For some reason it does not display what I wrote yesterday...
But thanks for the comment, I suspected the same, so the last time I only used TopMax, Bloom, Heaven in the water, 1-1-1ml, and before that water alone.
When do you think I should start giving N again?
Thanks
Looking great happy growing buddy.
Just few doubts : I will be starting with Auto skywalker in a week, currently with a similar time period strain (Auto Eufora). Do you feel any difference in using growth accelerators? Like my nutrients are same as yours, I will just add fish mix and cal mag.
Should I consider using the growth accelerator acc to your suggestion. It's my first grow with 3 plants( started with 2, 1 is in veg pretty soon), in a greenhouse so I am thinking not to go with any nutrients mix. Also do you suggest training (LST or any kind in first grows?)
For PH I am cautious and have PH + - ready.
Suggestions would be appreciated.
@krewgrew, Thank you for your thorough advice!
I even feel that my plants may not be ready for low-stress training until around week 4. Unfortunately, it’s too late to introduce root juice or root nutrients into my regimen for this cycle, and I'm kicking myself for not investing in a product that could last a year just to save 30 euros. But that's a lesson for next time. Your grow journal has been incredibly helpful, even though I am growing in greenhouse.
@Baba_VJ, And most importantly I almost forgot.
I probably should have waited for the LST, and the shearing for sure.
Next time I will do these a week later. That way I'll be less likely to over-shear at the beginning
@Baba_VJ, Hi
I don't know exactly what your soil is like. I tried Floragard growmix for the first time. Which, apart from the plastic foil bits in it, is good. And it's pretty full of salts.
Unfortunately, I've been feeding them almost since day one and have come to the conclusion that:
#1 For the first 3 weeks I will only give them rootjuice in limited amounts.
#2 I will add mycrohizza to the soil. Which will be Canna Professional Plus.
#3 A separate pot for each flower.
#4 No photo and auto in one tent.
#5 No auto, because, with the first one, I realized I wanted to have more control over their growth, direction, and when they start to bloom.
#6 I see a lot of potential in the autos for guerrilla gardening.
I hope I have helped!
