Hi guys, the light schedule is given by nature which could be problematic at the end of this project. All technical data will have an average value which shall only give an impression of the environmental conditions. I will do it more technical and scientific in the next project which will be an indoor project with LEDs and additional nutrients. Additionally I was told that the project could be a mission impossible. The good thing is that I have been trained in impossible missions and that I have seen plants growing and surviving under worst conditions in Afghanistan which motivates me to try it. Therefore I have divided the project in two sections. Possible section: Bubble Kush Automatic, Royal Creamatic, Fast Eddy. Impossible section: Stress Killer Automatic, Royal Cheese Automatic, Diesel Automatic. The possible section has to pass the Winter Survival Program naturally and only a few Royal Cheese Automatic plants have to pass it too. If it is really impossible for the Stress Killer Automatic and the Diesel Automatic they will be extracted or moved under E27 LEDs, so that they can be decorated for XMAS. The goal is to get them all through. All plants have been set directly into Bio Terra Plus from CANNA. I will check how I can support the plants suitable to their soil and lifecycle with nutrients but I will probably do it only with the plants which were set into the Air-Pots. I have to think about it. The tested fresh Auto Euforia was perfect. The taste and the color of the ash were better what I got sometimes in the Netherlands which convinced me that the Bio Terra Plus will be good enough for some plants. This time I use different pots to see how they react on it and to have more time for the plants from the first project. The best thing of today. I am looking forward to have my first homemade sativa tincture extracted. Take care, Tistou.

Hi guys, this summer was the best I have had in my lifetime so far. It has started in June by introducing my girlfriend into a Dutch coffeeshop for the first time. It was fun to see how she had reacted on the atmosphere. My first time in a coffeeshop has been in 1994 which showed me that the law in my country is wrong. Thank god that there have been guys like Jack Herer, Dr. Grinspoon, Howard Marks and Arjan who helped humanity stepping forward on the next level and myself not being afraid of doing the right thing. After introducing my girlfriend into the coffeeshop the strain hunter season was opened and we have started to travel to every city to get an impression of the world of medical marijuana from a new point of view. Following from this I will give you a general overview about my studies which has finally led to my choice of strains. Sativa dominated strains: Mystery Haze, Mexican Haze, Marley Haze, Diesel Haze, Northern Haze, Cannalope Haze, Hypro Amnesia, Nevilles Haze, Black Widow Haze, Bling Haze, Special Haze, Haarlem Diesel, Gianna (Antfarm), Trainwreck Haze, Sour Super Silver Diesel, Killing Fields, Critical, NLX, Santa Maria, L.A. Sour, Laughing Buddha, Orange Budd, Northern Lights, Dr. Grinspoon, Strawberry, Amnesia Haze, Silver Haze, Super Silver Haze, G13 Haze, Buddha Haze, White Widow, KC Jones, Bio Haze, S-5-Haze, Power Plant, Sweet Haze, Purple Hybrid and indica dominated strains: Sweet Mango Kush, Sweet Sour Vanilla Kush, Murdock Kush, Orange Kush, Bubble Kush, Master Kush, Blue Kush, S-5-Kush, OG Kush, Exotic, Critical Kush, White Shark, Hypro Enemy, Pepsi, Falling Angel, Silver Pearl, Moonflower, Pineapple Express, B52, Apple Berry, Bubble Gum Hash: Super Cristal, Khetama, Hya, Nepal Temple Ball, Red Lebanese, Black Afghan, Ghardala, Isolater (OG Kush or sativa dominated), Super Pollen, Nougat, Chocolate, Champagne, Shira, Zero, Maze, King Haze, Blonde, Amnesia Shiraz, Amnesia Hash, Super Lemon Haze Cream CBD: Power Flower Medicaal Tincture: CBD oil The CBD tincture has opened my eyes. This is definitely a perfect medicine for several issues and it is not understandable from my perspective that my government is fighting against it. That is the reason why I am interested in providing myself with it. The Royal Creamatic and the Bubble Kush Automatic have been chosen because the taste is extraordinary. The Diesel Automatic has been chosen to get familiar with the genetics from the US. The Royal Cheese Automatic is a gift from RQS. THX for that. Now I am sitting here and realize that the next outdoor grow has to be done in British Colombia. In advance to that I will feed the plants in the Air-Pots so that I can compare them to the others and to have the right set up in the pocket for the next season. I will probably do one last LED grow after this project to show the lessons learned and to have this set up in my pocket too. Hopefully the strain I have chosen for that master piece is not used till than. And if you Masters knew a Master Grower in British Colombia who needs an apprentice who wants to become an Assistant Grower it would be nice to keep me informed. There is no need of earning money till April 2019 but to learn all about growing on the highest level and to work in a professional environment without any issues. For giving me this opportunity you will get my work force for free. Greetz, Tistou.

Hi guys, the facility manager and some workers wanted to paint my windows last week. But I refused and talked to them that it has to be organized which they accepted. 😳 After that they decided to do it on the next floor above which was good to hear so that I could get comfortable with the situation. However it was a pain in the ass and they will do it this week which will be a bit complicated to organize but manageable. 😂 Furthermore I have started to sell out my apartment so there is only one direction. ALL IN! OVERSEAS! That motivates me and gives me a new vision. The vision of a free man doing what he loves. Sounds great! X - 6 months at the latest and it will be so. I wish you all the best, Tistou.

Hi guys, the Fast Eddy, the Stress Killer, the Diesel and the Royal Cheese are Dutch now. I gave two Bubble Kush and one Stress Killer to our strongest supporters. It was time to give them a new perspective because they have no experience with hybrids and CBD. I will write more when all is done... DJ Gold, Tangerine Haze, Maroc Ice and a strong Dutch weed from the neighborhood are responsible for the spirit. CU, Tistou.

Hi guys, thank you all so much without that platform I would not feel how I feel today. Being in Wonderland! I will write firstly about my last grow set up and later on why I have decided to change my life in 3 days totally. The Outdoor Black OP Grow in Germany was such a pain in the ass you cannot believe it. The set up was located on the fourth floor and the window was directed to a public local place and the most important sightseeing building of the city. On the other side have been the neighbors with probably 20 apartments and 4 of them with a direct look into my grow room. How to camouflage that set up especially in a case of running out of money and to improve skills and to find solutions by providing myself with the Holy Medicine? Nice task! Imagine how they reacted in a store because I wanted to get the DC FIX stripes without UV protection. The next issue was to get more stripes. In the beginning there have been only two of it which has lead to a strong SOP plan with Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol skills. I robbed the first two weeks on knees to my plants and worked by lying on the ground. The biggest issue have been many construction sites around my apartment. To manage and solve that social environment was really hard too... Last point to say is that I have always risked my driver's license by crossing the border. But crossing the border to bring plants from Germany to the Netherlands was a bit strange. A story for my children in the future perhaps... Now you can imagine how happy I am that my hard lessons learned can earn some fruits. Take care, Tistou.

Hi guys, the past time was hurting. First of all there was a need to improve the tent and I am still improving it. Too much light, too much heat, too much nutrients...but it works and it will go better step by step. The working cycle is implemented and further projects are planned. The heat and the nutrients killed luckily the Royal Cheese and I am happy that I am rid of those plants because I cannot fix the filter situation directly. One of the Diesels has to fight a bit with nutrients but she will manage the situation by time. One of the Bubble Kush has come back to me and it is nice to see the difference. She would not have survived the light schedule which shows me that you cannot do three outdoor grows in one summer. Only with very short time limited plants. Good to know! I am planning and doing a lot at the moment. I will keep you informed. CU next and take care, Tistou. PS: One week is missing...

Hi guys, that are the last survivors and it seems that they will fulfill their lifecycle. Hopefully... All SOPs are implemented and the tent is working like a dream machine. I am happy that the filter is working well but I think that a second filter will be necessary in the future. I will probably cover the odor with another system additionally but I have to get into the technical data firstly. I am happy that this project will have a good end which gives me energy for the following projects. I have not found any of these strains in a coffeeshop in the Netherlands so far. Only the Diesel but not organically grown. The CBD tincture will be made with a rice cooker because the kitchen is no longer suitable for an extraction. Best thing of today. Smoking a lot of my favorite HAZE strain of this summer. Black Widow Haze. Very tasty and in my opinion a perfect haze strain for a medical treatment. Take care and enjoy your plants, Tistou.

Hi guys, the timeline is now corrected and my personal chaos is more organized. I am getting deep into nutrients and technical equipment which is very interesting for me as a former mechanical engineering guy. The knowledge is growing and growing and I am not getting tired to learn more and more. It is how Ed Rosenthal has mentioned it in his Marijuana Growers Handbook that you cannot get addicted by using it but from growing it you will be for sure. I was also a former sportsmen and soldier which has had an effect on my body. I have often problems with the back so I am now really excited about Fast Eddy's beneficial effects. Clear pain relief to inhale could be a very good medical treatment for that reason. The next thing to point out is the effect of the Stress Killer. I have bought a perfect grown Lemon Haze this week which has a very good effect on me. It could help people who are suffering from stress in any kind. The reason for my assessment is that all other haze strains I have tested so far have often a stronger push in it which can generate to much energy or euphoria and that is what many people do not like in a permanent use when they are suffering from stress and not from depression. Combined with CBD the Stress Killer should be perfect. Therefore I am happy that the plant grows because from the perspective in the beginning of this set up I was sure that she would not pass it because she needs time. Time to get provided with more life quality in a biological and healthy way. Take care and make this planet green again, Tistou.

Hi growers, my plants are fine. They drink much every day. They are cannacured every third day. Furthermore they have started to listen to classical music which is very relaxing not only for them. Have a great day, Tistou.

Hi growers, the pic from the first week has been the area of my own International Combat Survival Course in the Black Forest. That was the point why I have had the idea for the plants and that is what was behind myself. They have started in the cellar room, survived the outdoor guerrilla germination, crossed the border to come back to their country, drunken water with a ph-level about 8 and than they switched into an indoor grow cycle as nothing has happened. From my perspective it is incredible how strong this Ruderalis genetics are. I am not a fan of too much ruderalis in plants but their concept is very suitable for real home growers. Strong, healthy, easy to handle and that is why I could not let the last harvest speak for RQS and I am happy that it is now looking better. I am starting the fight for the soldiers too because there is an lack of information which has to be filled. I told you that I will write a bit about it when I have left my country but to get you into that topic I would like to show you a comment which I have found: "I went to Vietnam, and I was there for a long time. (Using MJ) made the difference between staying human or, as Michael Douglas said, becoming a beast." (Oliver Stone) In my opinion that statement is clearly the truth...it has had the same effect on me and I can only recommend every soldier to try this as medicine. Alcohol and pills have turned comrades into ZOMBIES. Many of them wanted to die because they were not able to fix their lives again. In my opinion they should get MJ from the government for free in any case or the right to grow their own medicine. Take care, Tistou. PS: Stress Killer: 92 cm Fast Eddy: 73 cm Diesel: 72 cm

Hi growers, it is fcking AWESOME. The Stress Killer has been watered only with water. My first FLUSHING. I am happy to do it because the taste is ART too. With ORGANIC growing I am able to improve it. Every MJ is now SWEET as HELL. Have a great day, Tistou.

I cannot really assess the growing cycle because they have not lived in a real cycle. Doing it on GrowDiaries would be always my first decision. Without the community I would not have the possibility to reach that point. That is why I am promoting it on my own because I love the concept. The MMJ is very balanced between THC and CBD. That is why is set it between fifty-fifty.
