MindFlowers68 I just happened to get everything ready and my seeds soaked so that I was able to sow my seeds on the morning of 420 ironically. The seed germinated in five days, and this weekly post is showing the growth that happened seven days after sowing.
Really excited to get going again after this winter. I was able to get started a little bit sooner than I did last year. I had a ton of cleaning and set up and rearranging to do. I got myself a new 4 x 8 tent to replace my old cheap one I got that lasted me like three or four runs. This new vivosun is pretty sweet. It came with the high CFM bars in the kit. It has apparently 2000D fabric. It seems about as thick as my gorilla light tent and my AC Infinity tent. It also opens up all the way like my gorilla tent which is a huge plus I didn't know it did that and also the windows covers come off completely, which is pretty neat. The pole thickness is way better than the gorilla light tent. I decided to get a few new fans and I'm now going to run 4 honeywells on the ground and each tent once they're both going. I got my vivosun set up and cleaned equipment as I needed to get it set up and I had later got my gorilla cleaned out and that's going with vegetable seeds right now from my garden. Once they're out of there, I will be close to harvesting these autos and then I can set up my scrogs for my for photoperiod plants two per 4x8 tent. My soil is going on its third season and I took a picture of what I re-amended it with, along with the liquid fertilizers I will be using. Another difference this year is that I am going to be running a mushroom tent in my lung room for mostly fun and food, but also see if it makes any real difference for my plants. Going to be growing, blue oyster, Pink oyster and lions mane to start.

MindFlowers68 The LSD-25 auto Is looking similar to the gorilla glue auto in size. It's showing a little bit of variegation, but I'm sure it will outgrow it soon. She otherwise looks happy and healthy and has a nice color.
I'm kind of just watering with my intuition right now. I don't wanna suck it too much and then take too long to dry out with it not having roots. The first few days of the week I was just missed in the top. The midway through the week got first rewarding with the can with about 3ml of the calmag. The second time I put in 15 mL each of sea minerals and liquid kelp into a gallon and a half of water. Got around 1/4 gallon each time.
pH is at 6.5 around 68°F and 250 ppm of nutrients. My light is all the way at the top of the tent at 75 percent power and PPFD rating around 250 at canopy level 62 inches away.
The last picture in this weeks update is the mushroom tent set up so far it's pretty much ready to go. I just gotta hook up the controller and dial it in the environment. I have spawn green bags in sports syringes. I have to inoculate the bags I'm probably gonna start on that this week. I mainly want them fruiting during flower not when the CO2 load is at a minimum.

MindFlowers68 The plants had to fend for themselves for the most part this week. Although, I don't think they have any problem doing that. I did have a batch of boogie brew go in that they got fed, and I upped my kelp and minerals to a half dose from a quarter dose. I went for lighter, compost, tea, batch. The brewer I have is 32 gallons. I'm mixed up 3 cups each of the two part tea. I only watered twice this week roughly every four days it bounces between three and two waterings a week usually. They got about a half gallon each time.
My outdoor spigot leaked into the basement so I had to spend Four days focused on cleaning that up. The humidity's been kind of low, which is sort of unusual here. Figures I can't be in flower right now, Because I always struggle to keep it low. At least I'm going in the summer. The most challenging part is just keeping my humidifiers filled with water. I have two running in my tent right now, sometimes have to fill twice a day. I normally start my seedlings in a smaller tent, but they're starting to get to a point where they will start helping keep the environment is equilibrium.
Depending on when I get my vegetable seedlings out of my gorilla tent, I might try to see if I can transplant into my final pots for my photoperiods so the soil can help keep my tent humidified. I won't be able to do any scrog training on the photos. But I could put two of the autos in each of the tents in the middle until they finish.

MindFlowers68 It's been a nightmare for me trying to upload my photos for my diaries. I've had success often on, so I never know when I'll actually be able to have it updated. This week I skipped compost tea feeding and did one watering with kelp, and one with Cal mag a few days apart. Everything else is unchanged. The plants are receiving a little bit more light just from stretching. Somewhere around 350 ppfd.

MindFlowers68 It's the first week of flower for LSD-25 auto and going smooth. She already smells really strong, and the buds are developing at a rapid rate as well as the color from it's genetics. She has a short in squad structure with nice airflow. Nodes are pretty close and some nice side branching the lower branches are reaching up pretty good. Drinking noticeable more water this week.

MindFlowers68 LSD auto is flowering fast. Drinking a little over a gallon every two days. Buds are a medium density and developing trichomes already. Her height has topped out from stretching. Hardly any planetary buds, and basically the main cola only.
