Will be growing, 2 strains for this grow, in two different diaries, growing a Northern Light and this medical marijuana strain.
My first grow was successful with the big 250w CFL, now i have updated to a similar wattage LED, and is bright like the sun! :)
SETUP:
-BOSSLED LED 1800W full spectrum, real power consumption is +-250W.
-Grow space 60X100X200(a simple shower box.
-Fox farm trio and some other simple additives.
-Grow medium is 50% peat and 50% perlite, 5 gallon fabric pots(18l).
I lowered the LED to around 45cm from the plants, I’m still getting a hang on the LED lights distance, difficult to understand how near can i get with the LED without burning the girls… The inner nodes are less spaced than with the cfls, so the plants are more compact.
Also using an apollo horticulture glasses for the LED light and is insane, recommend that for those using LED lights!
Water schedule is alternated - water/nutes, this week they received a real feed, EC at 1.7, and the last dose of the roots enhancer(deeper underground).
The stresskiller auto is developing faster.
Girls are definitely developing well, no signs of deficiencies. Stress Killer is very vibrant and strong, size is more or less 17cm.
Lower the PH to 5.8 as i’m in soilless to see how is going to respond, can have there a little ph fluctuation issues, because part of the medium has a slight different ph as i has regulating to 6.3, but i’m confident with my choice.
Using 200ml water PH 5.8, every other day, in the schedule, water with all nutes minus organic tea EC 1.8/ water + organic tea and cal mag EC .8.
Fertilisers at 1/3 Strength, and the organic tea will be off next week i think, will decide as it goes.
This week the girls started pre flowering and developing many bunches, i just arranged in a way they take some light, but dint do any super lst or defoliation.
The STK is verry bushy, a bit on the low rider side, i m letting her do her thing.
The two plants im growing are showing different needs and reacting in a dostinct way to nutes and watering. No deficiencies on this girl next week will be only using the base nutes.
Hey guys, this week went nice and smooth. Girls are now receiving flowering nutes, and are liking, color is on point, stems are just massive. As LST goes just doing some leaf tucking, nothing more, minimal stress as possible, want the girls to develop fast fast. :)
The stress killer is two satiivas cross with a ruderalis, but mine looks like a low rider pheno, side growth is to the stars and super dense like a bush on steroids lol, leaves look a lot like an indica.
Till now i’m enjoying a lot to grow this strain.
Girls are growing nicely, this week ran nice and smooth, no issues.
My soil is a bit compact now, and water is not penetrating so well, so i tried to te compact the top layer and mess a bit with the textile pot, that improved a lot… Next time will ad some clay pellets, as i always do…
They are in the edge of nutes and i will have to be careful next week. The cal mag is been added one a week, 2ml per l in water only day.
Ec is around 2.5.
The SKR is developing nice flowers really fast, she looks around one week ahead, top leaves are starting to look more sativa some how, she is packed and dense, did just some leaves tucking nothing else. I decided not to defoliate. Is looking like i will outgrow my space, they are developing really nice.
GENERAL COMMENT.
So guys this week ran ok, i’m trying to pay attention to some details, like water temp, as the weather is cold here.
The LED had a problem in one vent, so i repaired it, is nicely built inside but all the wires are tight and locked with this plastic lockers, so to have room to work you have to first take some of them out, impossible to find the vent attach, so i cutter the wire and made a connection for the new vent, avoiding to hunt the cable source and a nightmare of taking everything apart… A bit of pressure because i couldn’t screw up and loose the LED, to buy a new one would take up to 60 days…
EC is at 3.1, .1 higher than i should be, pushing them a bit, can see a tip yellowing and a super slight tip burn, so my interpretation is that i have to reduce the nutes dosage a bit.
Runoff is at 5.8-5.9, watering at 6.2-6.3 pin pointing at that range, no deficiencies are showing at the time. 2.5l every 1-2 days, when water only, i give 5l each to manage salt build up on the medium then it takes longer to dry out.
Cal mag supp once a week, with water only, 2ml/l. They will be off this week to manage the progression of overfert.
STRESS KILLER AUTOMATIC COMMENT.
She became a real bush, and is in full flower, around 53cm now, super dense, and light penetration is hard, keeping on the leaves tucking and going natural yet, no defoliation, pruning or lollipop-ping. She is a joy to grow and smells very citrus, smell is not pungent though, also comparing to my last grow… My hole house was smelling like ganja at the time, lol! Less flower spots than the NL but still lets see how dense they will get.
GENERAL COMMENT. WEEK 4 OF FLOWER.
The week ran smooth, girls keep on growing well, my soil is becoming a bit compact, i usually use clay pellets mixed but this time i when straight with the soilless mixture, 50% Mosses and 50%p Perlite, with no organic correction so is inert, a pro is that you don’t see bugs such as gnats, till now. For the moment @B4RNS gave a nice idea on how to improve the aeration by using a knitting needle, to poke the soil, and that was easy to do, with minimal damage. Is a regular plastic pointy stick. Had putted up the lamp to around 40cm from the canopy.
EC continues at 3.1, and added overdrive to the feed, lowered the B-52. Cal mag more diluted 1ml/l one time a week only.
STRESS KILLER COMMENT.
All good and easy, super strong, getting nice and fat, and this week she started to produce some trichomes, yummy! Smell is very citrus oriented, and enjoyable, super fruity with a touch of acid. Would like to super crop the top but as she is doing her thing very nice decided to keep that way as the NL also has a upper canopy and the lamp is one wouldn’t t do much.
GENERAL COMMENT. WEEK 5 OF FLOWER.
Ok guys, this week ran ok for one girl and less for her sister, so i will go on details individually.
RQS STRESS KILLER AUTOMATIC COMMENT.
Beautiful girl getting bigger everyday, i’m very satisfied overall, she is fast and have lots of terpenes, and started heavy resin production. Super strong, absolutely no issue at all for now. I’m imagining to start flushing this week or the next will decide this days to come, but this grow will be max 12 weeks.
Not reading the runoff on this girl as everything is just amazing. Maybe will backbuild some colas to compare.
EC at 2.2, released a lot of N now, but still did a good feeding, it might be the last, or max one more before the flush.
Will be flushing with flawless finish in the last week.
GENERAL COMMENT.
Two different realities are populating my humble growroom, by one side we have a vibrant SKR and the other the NL that was destabilised a wile back. This two girls from RQS have lots of virtues, and shooting up many colas, and harvest is looking promising.
RQS STRESS KILLER AUTO. AKA SKR
I’m looking forward to get the results on this one, beautiful plant, full of colas, compact size, and very dense. 100% happy, my first medical strain and i recommend for anyone looking for a easy to grow CBD funcional strain.
She got her last nutes feed a day a go, and now is flushing time! 10 days to go, and she still bulking! As far as flushing goes, I will water abundant in the first week with ph water, then flawless finish to take care of any thing left.
Looking close for mould and etc… Fingers crossed guys! I would like her to go flawless!
GENERAL COMMENT.
This week ran nicely for the two girls, of course one is going slower than the other.
RQS STRESS KILLER AUTO.
Super happy with the results so far, she grew nice size buds, in the surrounding and a big fat main cola, just beautiful.
As we are entering the last week, of last tree days, I choose to lollipop and take do a pre harvest defoliation, the reasons for that is mould and rot, I started to become insecure because she didn’t have airflow and as i was flushing humidity started to raise, all good, and now just approaching harvest!
Flushing with flawless finish and tap water.
RQS . STRESS KILLER AUTO CONCLUSION BEFORE HARVEST.
Harvest time is here, choose to do a final post with how the girl looks after the final flush, so enjoy.
If you are looking for a super resistant strain and easy to grow functional medical strain this is the one.
She was given tap water, and used flawless finish for 6 hours then flush again, 2-3 times in this two weeks, expecting top shelf from her.
Super resistent strain easy to grow, it was a flawless run no issues just joy! 😜 Super big dense heavy, frosty buds came out. Bushy vigorous plant, does not complain about anything you give her. Flowering started in week 4-5, then we had standard 8 flowering weeks to mature, flush for 2 weeks almost with flawless finish to test.

---DRY WEIGHT---
95G just flowers
Expecting a awesome top shelf smoke from this girl, smell is mid way, a lot less than other strains, so it make a good option to stealth, but not the best. Superb strain, will update on the effects after dry and fully cured, high is supposed to be mild and functional, this is my first medical strain with high CBD, super curious.

---UPDATE 2 . After harvest---
-A -Jaring
After drying till the stems almost snap, in a rack, I separed the flowers, weighted and jared for cure.
-B-Vape report.
Vaped with a Davinci IQ, about .5 from the uncurred buds, from 350f to 430f max temp.
Since the begging of the session you feel this is a special strain, taste is 5/5 vapor production is insane 5/5, and the effect as discribed by RQS, a stress killer that allows you to funcione normally, think it as a mild relaxant, is what i was looking for so super satisfyed!
As you increase the vaping temps you feel the effects stronger, basically is a good body sensation and head tranquility, no paranoia, no confusion, no psychoactive stone. The side effects i feel is the classic dry mouth, not too strong though.
-C-Joint smoke.
Nice and smooth it hits with a mild sensation, very relaxing, no couch lock, mental trip or anything, i’m certain is similar to canna-tonic some how, very enjoyable, sweet taste tones of citrus earthy and woody.
-D-Bong hit.
Not a fan of bongs, i feel vaping gives a better overall experience, though for the sake of the diary, i did a bong hit to check, filled a full bowl and hitted mutiple times, the smoke is smooth, no harshness, though is a bit more intense than smoking a joint.
---UPDATE 3 . Final—
Well guys, this concludes my diary, with this final update.
After two weeks cure, i feel is already cured for the most part, one more week and all the cruise part will be done, after that it continues but slowly. It was fun to grow, and top shelf smoke. Note that is not a recreative smoke, is functional and enjoyable, i feel that if you have a super strong strain you can dilute in to this one and have a more controlled high. Smoking, vaping in multiple temperatures and i could still function, work, speak on the phone and think clear.
Looking for a Stress Killer, high in CBD, that will melt your stress and concerns so you can go on with your duties and enjoy a nice smoke, give this strain a go, and let me know so i can follow your diary and know your opinion.
Cheers everyone and thanks for those who contributed to the diary in any manner, or passed by. Happy growing always. 00
@CBD_Sweden, 👊🏻👍🏻👊🏻🙃 yap , pitty that this gennetics are so rare ... is very nice they give the guide I had a look few months a go, mephisto also displays their technique in the site for their autos is surprisingnly basic que way they do. Thanks for the info bro! 👍🏻
@CANNASIM, Charlottes webb is a hemp driven plant i think and is clone only. Harlequin, harlesin/tsu and acdc, vcdc is possible to get from seed. But very rear. There is one growing vcdc right no from moxie seeds here in GD and some other cbd strains that are interesting.
growdiaries.com/diaries/2785-tonino-vcdc-durga-caramel-smooth
If you are going to grow Cannatonic, they har a complete growguide. I think its cool that they have it like this in there hompage. https://resinseeds.net/strains/cannatonic-grow-guide/
@CBD_Sweden, 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 That s an insane strain definitely to try! Its a pity, Harlequin, ACDC and Charlottes webb strains are very hard to find seeds i think they go by clones only in the US... 😰
@CANNASIM, youre strain is sativa dominant, i havent tried a cbd strain like that yet. Only indica dominant cbd strains.
It sounds like its a plesent strain and i would like to try it out.
Thanks for the quick uppdate.
@CBD_Sweden, Totaly right. I just tryed now, i'm on it at the moment. For now i vaped around .5g with a Davinci IQ, from 350f -410f, to have a comprehensive feel. Is another world compared to high thc strains, for me hits like a mild relaxant, this one is super functional, just as discribed by the breeder, liked a lot is what i was looking for. Will do the smoke report in full soon! Cheers bro thanks for the tips on the cbd! 👍🏻👊🏻🙃
@CANNASIM, Sometimes CBD weed hits harder than you could belive, iv seen my friends talk about no high and things like that. But 2 of them tried a half gram joint from me and after 20 min the were asleep in my sofa :). It depends on the day you smoke it, one day you only feel relaxed or tired or happy. So im curious how you find it, and how it makes you feel when you have tried it a cuple of times. But generally its a mild high in te first 10 min and then it mellos out and you get a nice feeling in the whole body.
@Lou_Grows, hey bro you do not manage that, depending on the genetics and how are they breed they do their thing that can be from week 3 and forward... in my case was 4 weeks... You simply do not control their cycle... cheers happy growing

Hello @KonopCh, ! 👊🏻 Baam correct gess my friend right in the target 🙃👍🏻👍🏻 95g pin pointed. Will test smoke and let you know the effects and everything.
@CBD_Sweden, So bro, final is in between 95g, 23%-+ from the wet weight considering only flowers for the final. 🙃👊🏻👍🏻 Cheers all the best! Happy growing!
@CANNASIM, If you got 20% its about 80 grams, thats a good harvest from a auto in my opinion. And at 30%, = 120 grams, thats fucking amazing. I hope for 30 :)
@CBD_Sweden, Thanks bro, this strain is superb, super easy, dense buds, resistant! We are looking at 421g wet, lets see how much it will shrink, I think dry weight will be 20 to 30% that. Happy growing! Cheers!
How do you get em so dam bushy! Your easy bud compared to my easy bud is just so heart breaking for me lol I thought it was looking good now I just wanna toss it and start new
@JTKush92, 🙃👍🏻👊🏻 Thanks a lot! I had a look on your current diary, girls are comming along well! This where 5 gallon fabric pots, that will give you more room for the roots resulting in bigger stronger plants. The seccond thing if you like them to bushout is to control the internodal spacing with the lights distance, and lastly in this case i grew naturally with leaf tucking, so the shoots grow out.
Take care, happy growing!

@Larimar, Thanks for the kind words! I wish you luck on your new journey, if you need anything I’m around 🙃 next week i will also start some new projects here! 👍🏻👍🏻 Take care and be well! Happy growing!
