Song of the Week : "Baby shark"
RH : between 50 and 90
Temps : between 24 and 36
I wasn't planning for a diary but the quarenteen is long and I need to find something else than playing Just Dance 2020 with the kids : no advertising here as I'm a FPS player only , but my kids can makes me do crazy shits like dancing in front of the TV on the song " Baby Shark ".
So here is my garden , half indoor , half outdoor with differents type of genetics and as you can see the Gorilla Girl from Sweet Seeds is here ( it's my new classic ) alongside the Lemon Zkittles and the Red mandarine which are my 3 "all year" strains so I'll be trying to keep them as long as possible and maybe I'll try to do some crosses and S1 with some reversed pollen that I'll do thanks to some STS solution , and by the way I will show in video how I am doing the STS stock solution as my wife did thraw away my old stock solution when she was cleanning the frezzer ( in quarenteen everything is clean )
The indoors plants are in coco for 4 of them and in recycled soil ( garden store are closed ) in which I've put some Mr B's Green Trees Grow nutrient by mixing with it in the top 3 first cm of the soil un each pot and in small quantity.
The outdoors are in 5L pots except for 2 gorilla girls which are in a 7 L pot , I've put some mulch on the top of the soil , like that nobody will come to tell me "hey Spinnnn you are over/under watering" haha 😝 and also because it's so hot out there that my grass is yellow/brown due to the lack of rain so the mulch is keeping the wter to evaporate too quickly !! But Spinnn what is the Mulch ? a top dressing of some crushed leaves from my garden on the top of the soil iin the pot ( 3/4 cm of mulch ) . And my mulch is degreed by some mycelium ( I've seen some white mycelium and good fungus are always /often white so it's all good ) but the mycelium will probablu die because of the lack of water and the quick evaporation of the water.
I'll be doing some monster cropping , not because I need to but because I have free time , I'm not garenteing to do it btw but I would like to hve a exemple to show when someone is asking me about it.
There is a strain that I'll be watching more than the others : the Sweet DreamZ auto F2 because it's a personal cross between a [(Sweet skunk auto X Super Cheese Xpress ) x Blue dream matic] F2 . I would like to see how could turn a polyhybrids when you are trying to breed only autos together as the commercial auto cross are cross from autos with photos that are nut going higher than F3 ( 90% of the time ). Will it be less potent , will I loose the auto genes with numerous generation ? A lot of useless questions that I'm asking to myself.
Things you have to know about my indoor setup :
-Temps & RH are too high
-No extractor or air intake because I am lazy so I'm saving 20 min of work
-Frequent under watering because I forget to water them
-Pots are too small
-I am bringing nutrients with every watering , in soil & coco ( not good )
-I am not planning to improve my setup or my skills ( too lazy )
-It can happens that I'm shocking a pnat by putting her outside during mid day while the temps are high
-I have multiple feeding charts depending on the plants , the medium and mostly because I like to change my habits when I can
-I can practice some training method without any reason than doing it but never some time consuming training , just some LST+ topping and some hst

Wednesday
Grapefruit : 7L coco medium mixed with 30% perlite was watered with a 6,1/6,2 ph water so she is suffering from a ph fluctuations as it jumped from 5,8 to 6,2 ( so a 0,4 jump ) , I will correct it and show pictures of the ph burnt

Sunday
The whole family is going ok even if I have serval issues that I'm about to list now
GrapeFruit Auto [FastBuds] : Almost ready but I already have no more space for her so I'm putting her when I can at night , yesterday it was in a 60x60 box with 110w of FL and no fan + no extraction and the morning after she had a little sign of rot so I've cut the shit out of her and she's now a full outdoor plant with only 12h of light. I hope that the new schedule will not slow her too much as I need to harvest before the spiders mites start to build a civilisation.
Gorilla Girl [Sweet Seeds] x6 : The 6 of them are doing good and the ones in the tiny pots (5L) are doing better , that strain is incredibly easy to grow .
Sweet DreamZ Auto [Spinnn's Seeds] : My babies are doing ok but I had a problem during the begening of the week , I've noticed a Nitrogen deficiency due to the stretch and the fact that the soil is a recycled one so it's needs to be feed almost everytimes
To get rid of that issue I decided to use a spoon of Dr B's Green Trees Grow , a dry nuts , and mixed it with the top 3 cm of the soil , I did the same with a spoon of bloom and did water the plants with plain water t give them a shot. At mid week they needed to be watered so I decided to boost the N amount by using a Urine+ Water solution a 1.30Ec and my plan was to water from the bottom by pooring the mix in a tray and wait for the plant to absorb it , the reason was simple : no water on the top 3 cm to not activate the recent dry nutz ! But I did the opposite and the plant are now suffering from a lil over feeding while the N issue has stop spreading.
Ultra Lemon Haze [Auto Seeds] : Nice , tall , in coco ,watered with 1.7 ec and 5.8 ph ! yellowing a bit from the bottom but nothing serious ! I will cut some clones to do some cross
Tuesday
Gorilla Girls : They are ok , a bit slow to flower so I'll feed more often as sometimes I am giving plain water , every days after mid day the pots are so light weight that I have to watter by the bottom.
The smell is already strong , the trichomes are covering buds and leaves and they are looking green enough to handle an higher PK amount
Lemon Skittlez ( Strawberry pheno ) : They are yellowing a bit , they are both suffering from under watering , it must be the soil that is not retaining enough water. This phenotype have the particularity to have a nice stretch so even if the plants looks small they will get bigger after the stretch.
Lemon Skittlez ( Skittles pheno ) : This one is growing better than the other one , but this pheno is staying shorter , I've noticed that a long veg is not the ay to go with that phenotype on the cntrary of the other one. The taste is amawing ans the smell is too.
Red Mandarine F1 FV : It's the fail of that grow , the plants are falling on their own weight and the weight is light , the inter nodes space is high because they did stretched too much due to the fact they were in a shady place. This is the only strain that seems to not like a recycled soil. You can notice some burnt on the edges of the leaves , I'll bet on a deficiency.
Sweet DreamZ : The one in 7L are doing great , the N def did stoped so no more extra N since the end. The 3 in 3L & 4L pots are burning , it could be a ph fluctuation due to the recent dry nutrients top dressing or it could be because of the piss+water mix that I gave them by the bottom ( and a bit by the top ). Despites of the nutrients issue they are doing great , the smell is starting to be a good one and I'm now curious to see the shape of the buds
Glueberry : She was the last outside , she was in a shady place , she was under watered and after my Piss+water mix she is looking dark green while she is suposed to get in flowering so I hope that there is no Nitrogen toxicity here. I wasn't suposed to grow that tree ( like 5 others ) they were suposed to be gifts to a friend fr his 1st grow but the covid did make them run out of space/ nutrients ect and I decided to grow them all and make new clones for my friend. Amazing strain BTW , I need to pheno hunt a more productive pheno but it's really pleasant to smoke that weed , it's recalling me of some og + chem dog
Tuesday
Gorilla 🦍 Girls : You can see a nice damping off from an under watered lady 🦍👍 So guys when it happens during the afternoon while you’ve already watered on the morning you know it will be a time consuming grow knowing that’s they are half way 😩
Who told me to grow a super vigorous hybrid clone in a 5L pot ??? Hahaha At least I know who to blame ☺️
Ultra Lemon Haze : Well they are both ultra well growing , I had to pinched them hard to control dem.
Glueberry OG : Dead !!! She were infested by fungus gnats larvae , even with only bottom watering she did not made it .... I have a clone so you’ll see her again soon enough
Lemon Skittlez Strawberry : Fattening and getting pales but smelling incredibly good
Lemon skittles #skittles pheno : I am growing a candy 🍭
Grapefruit : I am ripping her with a 2ec mix of only PK which is supposed to be like pulling on the trigger and get a dead shot 🤘🏼. She is still full of red spiders 🕷️
So much to say !
Bugs invasion : red spiders + thrips + white flies !!! But how can they all be present on a solo plant ?? Is it due to the extreme dryness of my island during the last 2 mouths ? Can't say. Will I try something to get rid of them ? Not 2 weeks from harvest : what do you prefer ? Some bugs or some rotten buds ?
Be preventive guys ! Don't let bugs get on your plants !
