Everything is looking ok! Tomorrow ill give the last portion of root juice and after that it will be Biobizzs Fish-mix or Bio-grow thru the entire veg-state.
I water her like every 3 to four days with like a 0.5L filtered water with like 6.1 pH but due to the 2ml (4ml / 1L) Root-Juice the pH goes a bit up.
It will be dropped down next week, sadly must wait for the delivery more than expected.
I make a detailed spreadsheet about the watering / fertilizer added and will post it on the harvesting page after everything is done. (successfully I hope!)
What a week!
What a blast!
I decided to crank the timers, because its a autoflower anyway and started the week with practically no cycle. 24H full power!
And than, booom! she start adding leafs and thickness like a champ!
Also started the week with 1ml BioBizz Fish-Mix in 500ml of 6.2 pH water.
Two days later 1ml Biobizz Bio-Grow in 500ml of 6.2 pH water.
Two days later 1ml Biobizz Bio-Grow in 500ml of 6.2 pH water again.
Witch will be my schedule for the Veg-period.
Today a decided to remove two leafs, to open some space for the branches starting under and because the stem is so tick already
i will maybe just keep on defoliating later and pull some branch down or aside. The main plan was to pull the whole flower down near the ground (lst) but at that point it is impossible. Will see late after a week or so.
Update: Day 15
She produces leafs like a madman! So to give light and reduce unnecessary energy going to the fan leafs I removed the first ones and some newer so the two main branches get the light they are seeking. Next week Im planing to pull some of them down/aside and defoliate like in two or maybe tree weeks.
Disclaimer!
I am posting the photos/videos in the end of the week so it the start of week 3 at this one.
Getting bushier and bushier!
I started the week with removing some leafs to make space for the smaller branches and they took it well.
Also did a LST pulling two branches aside for the same reason and that worked as well.
I plan to pull everything at maximum tomorrow so the planned last week of the veg-period will be adjusting and getting ready for flowering.
I watered her a day later so to match the water cycle with her new friend (starting a second diary/ new breeder and strain) and she wasnt happy. The top leafs started to lean and overall she showed that something is not right. That showed me that the watering schedule at the moment is right. 500ml every other day (+nutrients)
Update: I pulled all branches down, so she is ready for the last planned week of her vegetative period. Also removed 2 leafs so to stick to my plan and do not remove any other until harvest! (fingers crossed)
So thats it for the end of week 3 and into week 4!
Stay safe my friends!
Oh man, I got drunk!
And decide to trim my girl in the middle of the week... definitely not planned!
not that it gone bad but it was too spontaneous.
Also I skipped the fish-mix and did strait bio-grow.
Update:
A day before the end of week 4 of the veg-period and she is almost flowering, or to say it as it is, exactly as Green House said it will be. Im happy and looking forward. Even I said it 100 times already (will not defoliate her until harvest) i think it will be better for the overall performance if i remove the unnecessary leafs, just to reduce the wasted energy.
So tomorrow as I always do will post the update of the end of week 4 / start of week 5 with her trimmed look.
My light is also has like 5cm till I need to go Macgyver...
Update: I pulled it up and in the moment is exactly at the perfect distance from the plant (43cm/17in) so I hope the grow will continue in weight and not in height from now on.
P.S.: I know the yellow tips of the leafs are a sign of too much nutrients but i also think she will handle it. I just started to water her with the double amount (1L) but if you see (ill make a photo) you will understand. She sucks every single drop of water in the pot. Before watering there is a centimetre gap between the pot and the soil.
Update: Its her 28 day and she is ready to start flowering. Im more than ready too! Trimmed some of the low branches, I guess lolipopping?! and also pulled out the net for a ScrOG. I have forgotten that I have one. They shipped it with the tent, thanks @secretgardin !
Peace and stay safe!
Its week 5 and she started flowering exactly as expected!
So I started with the Biobizz's Top-Max and Bio-Bloom.
Its hard to maintain a steady number on the humidity but Im doing my best to start lowering it so it will do down to 45% in about two-tree weeks.
Update>
So its the end of week five overall and end of the first week of flowering!
Overall I am more than happy!
Today after I made the shots for the update I saw that the main bud is somehow leaning aside.
I already had planned to move the light a bit higher tomorrow, but well why wait?
Why pulling it up, well I expected her to stop growing higher, but she did tho, so the distance to the light was in the above 1100-1250 PAR range according to the manufacturer. Im not an expert but from what I find the perfect PAR/PPFD for LED for flowering is around 900-1000. Also I prefer to play it safe, so .... cable-ties, MacGyver-style
Also for the last tree days Im watering her every single day. Wanted to try it yesterday just to see if she will handle it and yep, no problem, also no yellow tips, which means she is handling the nutrients well too.
I am worried because of the leaning of the main bud. Could it really be the light, or maybe she is thirsty. (the photo is taken before watering, so tomorrow morning Ill see the results)
In next weeks episode: She starts to take 1ml Bio-Bloom more!
Peace and stay safe!
Start of 2th week of flowering, start of the slow at start increase of nutrition's given daily. (+ 1ml of BioBizz's Bio-Bloom)
The leaning of the top bud yesterday was because she wanted water/nutrients. Today everything is fine.
Updates to come in couple of days. (Also she is getting more photo genetic ;) )
Update: Day 39, middle of week two of flowering and everything is fine and steady. Added hopefully the last 10cm in hight.
The humidifier is working only half of the time at low, the plant is doing the rest itself. Overall the humidity is around 55%.
Update: Day 41, end of the 6th week. Still struggling to maintain the steady humidity level, but overall it is in a healthy range.
Starting tomorrow, she will be watered with 1ml more Bio-Grow and Bio-Bloom. (3ml)
Peace and stay safe!
In the middle of week 3 of flowering!
She is slowly stopping to produce new leafs and concentrate all that energy in the production of the most important. So Im done with the defoliation! She is no longer growing on height, (thanks!) and in my newbie opinion she enjoys the nutrients and water too.
Although I think she can handle a bit more water, I will not increase anything out of the nutrients schedule on that very first grow, just not to fuck the good start, also of course to give the roots a chance to suck some oxygen. (before watering there is a gap between the pot and the soil, i'll say like a centimeter and a half/one inch wide) So that is for today!
Updates to come in the end of the week.
And it is the end of the week. Uploaded some pictures from day 48.
Overall, she is fine, I somehow manage to keep the humidity around 52%-53%.
From next week she will become +1ml of BioBizzs Bio-Grow (4ml in total) and this will be the preparation for the week after that. Than all of the nutrients will be at peak volumes (4ml BIo-Grow, 4ml Bio-Bloom, 4ml Top Max) for the last 3 weeks until the final flush/dry/darkness finale.
Peace and stay safe!
The pictures! Day 51.
I really needed them to see how this slow explosion is starting to happen!
Will try so setup a gopro to make a timelaps of the last four weeks!
More than happy for sure!
Thanks for the great show happening at home, @greenhouseseedco , @biobizz and @greenception !
Update, Day 52.
I cleaned some underleafs, pulled the net about 5cm/2.5inch higher and rearranged the buds true it.
Had to say the bud on the 12 o'clock position is the thickest, standing right above the humidifier. (next time will equip a second humidifier and a fan too)
Next week: starting the peak of fertilizer dosage period, pull the net like 10cm down, remove all really unneeded leafs under the net level. In summary getting ready for the final stretch and pumping the buds to the max!
Peace and stay safe!
Day 1, Week 9!
I think im getting better on the photography part of all this here. Found some settings on my camera never seen before.
Tomorrow morning ill remove all fan-leafs, so check the images from day 61!
I really like how the operation is going so far and its time for the final push.
From the next update on Thursday she will be for about 3 days on all 3 nutrients at the peak volume and fewer leafs. 4ml per 1l water for the next 2-3 weeks, before the final flush/dry/dark week.
Update! Day 61.
So I removed all fan leafs.. and she is starting to really flower. Purple. (see the day 61 images)
Peace and stay safe!
So if you ask me, she is almost there.
For the last 4 days the leafs of the main and other bigger buds are starting to get a bit crispy. (see image 4)
And because the plant has like a swiss made clock inside and every step she made was on the exact planned day, I decide to give her 3 more days of nutrition. On day 1 of the next/last grow week Ill flush and leave her to dry out for 4 days. Than 2 of darkness and than we will be ready to harvest.
I will post the full nutrition schedule below.
Peace and stay safe!

Flushed and ready for the last week.
Today was also the first day of she really smelling. Normally there is some smell but more in the normal area of the scale. Today she is smelling like a im ready for harvest like a way.
The flush was with like 10-15L of just plain tap water.
And now is up for the "sun" to dry her. No more water, nutritions, scrog or humidifier.
Update. Day 73. Second day after flush.
Checked the pistons for the first time. ("micro lens" for smartphone)
And they are not really amber or near that stage, So Ill check them tomorrow at the same time, than on the last planned day before the blackout. To be honest, if the pistons does not turn amberish till the planned dark days i may water her for a couple of days maybe. I dont know, but in the same time I dont want to google or ask and figure it out on the go. I know, at the end, Ill end up searching/asking about it anyway. She is definitely crispier than normal and will maybe start to get visual tomorrow.
Update. Day 74
The amber pistons are 10-15%, no or little change from yesterday. Smelling delicious!
The macros are the sh^t!
Update. Day 75.
And she goes in the dark for 48h.
Update. Day 77.
Time for cur her down.
Once again the full nutrition schedule is below.
Peace and stay safe!

Well,
I probably can write a several pages of thoughts, but Ill try to make all a lot shorter.
First grow, long time smoker, also not one of the younger ones here.
Full investment: 550 € / 621 $
Electricity: 150 € / 170 $
First time luck or not she grew like a champ and overall outcome under the 128W light is spectacular in my opinion.
137g under 128W (with the fans inside the lamp)
Also have some leafs and rests planned for a small badge of hashish. Updates to come!
Update. A week after harvest.
The drying and storage as follows:
- 7 days hung the branches in the box. branches = from where the buds are starting; not the whole thing. (20°C, 55%)
- Glass jars, burping daily for 30 min. (room temp&humid = 21°C, 55%.
Its perfectly dry for smoking. I presume its happening because I dried her for 4 full 24h days under the lamp, than 2 days of darkness and than cut and hang in the darkness. All this after a flush 2 weeks ago.
The effects are in the middle range. It is a perfect smoke, not too heavy but also stoned enough. I really like it actually and because of the performance will definitely grow the strain again. My next will be from another breeder (already have the seed), but the following will be very much the GHS catalog.
Much love to Green House Seeds for the unbelievable harvest and the perfect smoke!
Much love to BioBizz for the healthy plant and the sweet taste.
Much love to Greenception for the real sleeper lamp! Not allover the internet, but over the top in quality and more than expected performance. 128W for around 250 € / 280 $ is not the cheapest, but its definitely the best in the low (e-consumption) range.
Much love to the Growdiaries!
Peace and stay safe!
