Well it's time for round 2! I have 3 seedlings popped up, all named after Futurama Characters lol// trying to keep attention to detail with each plant. (1) hasn't popped up yet, not sure if it will.
Not much going on, alot of stretching, so I had to put up some lil make shift trellis out of BBQ skewers haha.
Put into my tent with 600W LED, about 28/30 inches away due to intensity, doing 18/6 6pm-noon
My goal this grow is to work on training my plants, experimenting with maybe LST? I will be topping for sure in order to get more bud this time around. 👽
Happy growing everyone!
This week was a bit tough, they grew tall n weak, having to support them.
I had to rec-locate my tent, due to it being too cold during the sleep cycle.
They have improved since then, 2 days ago they had fallen over due to the temp and now look like they can hold themselves up better.
Stressful with lil babies at first.
They also got their first feed! New nutes! Whoohoo!
So I followed their recommended feeding guide// for seedlings n cuttings, 1ML/1L
I didn't even give them 1L during feeding, I didn't want to overdo it, and it was their first real feeding so I gave between the 3 of them, 1/2 L in the perimeter of pots.
I'm hoping the new nutrients should help most of my issues, since last grow- PH kind of was all over the place.
Other than that, just trying to keep them supported and alive at this point, the first few weeks are always a bit nerve wracking.
Stay safe and happy growing! 👽
PS: I just looked at my plant " Morbo" which is the 4th photo, in the far left hand side of the pot, there is the seedling popping up/ I planted 4 originally, 1 didn't pop up so I just threw the remainder dirt into Morbo and now THERE IS A BABY GROWING OUT OF IT!!!!!!! Bit of a shocker since I just took these photos and didnt even notice?? 20 mins later it's popped right up LOL.
May18- transplanted the lil one to own container, roots looked great.
Hello Everyone! Hope you all are staying safe!
Updates for the Futurama gang this week!
I'm still using the BBQ stakes until i'm positive they won't fall over, though I haven't seen them tipped over in days// the lil one Linda, i did see her all hunched over when it got cold// 2 hours before light off.
so i put the stakes in to give them the support.
I finally got perlite, which i think should drastically improve the drainage this grow, going to mix up the soil next week and transplant to their forever homes in 5L fabric pots.
They took super well to the feeding this week, they also indicated when they wanted a more frequent feeding, which i was being light handed so that's great.
The negatives I have is the two of them sprouted so high n stretched, that they have a hard time keeping themselves up.
I'm excited to see how this ends up, and how i can better my babies. Happy growing everyone
May 30/2020
This week has gone well for the kids, did a transplant into 3 Gallon fabric pots, not lil linda though.
Mixed my soil with 30% Perlite, did a feeding May 26 of 1.5 L , between the 4 plants.
I will do a flush next feed as I don't want a salt build up.
The weather has been getting warmer and i'm pushing my max heat right now of 29 degrees Celsius... too hot but i'm trying to combat it.
I will have to move them back into my basement where it's cooler- I wanted to keep them warm and toasty while so young and vulnerable.
I feel all 3 have bounced back from the transplant very well, Leela was a bit droopy the following day but nothing concerning.
Also to mention, they all had really good roots on them, strong, kind of difficult to get out of the pot even though they weren't root bound.
Internodes are tight, which makes me happy, i'm hoping to do a topping soon, just want them to be 100% recovered from the transplant/' will move Linda in the next week or so.
( note to make I used reversed osmosis filtered water this week for the feeding as my water has a large amount of chlorine right now due to winter river run off. )
Thanks for reading and stepping by. Happy growing 👽
June 06/2020 😊
This week they had their first topping ( minus lil linda) they all took to it really well, and look GREAT.
Lil linda was transplanted into a 3G fabric pot, recovered well.
I noticed Leela had a tiny lil hole in one of her fans yesterday.. I searched tent and all plants for pests// I saw nothing, i wiped down the tent afterwards.
I did accidentally get a few droplets of nute solution on a few of the leaves// I couldn't remember which one but I think it was her.
Color looks really nice and green!
My plants are 18/6 - 6PM-NOON and I notice around 10AM ish they look droopy, not perky like my photos..
The weather has been so awful and humid... I'm concerned about a possibility of mildew or mold starting.. when my lights turn on its 80% RH. and temp has been 29 degrees in my tent some days
The plants don't look wilty or sad// very perky actually.
BUT this is not good or sustainable.. my house has been sitting at 68% which is very abnormal but can't control this.... When lights are on, the RH has been about 65%
Hoping it gets a bit more dry and this rain will stop creating so much humidity.
Overall i'm really happy with this week and the growth, hoping to do another topping in 3/4 internodes!
Thanks for looking! Happy Growing 👽
June 13/2020 Saturday
The gang looks good, I did a location move with my tent// back in the basement. Temp was way too high upstairs and they are settling in well.
Fed some nutes on June 7th, I feel like i'm doing a great schedule for feeding.. I wait for them to tell me when they want it, i'll give them a feeding June 14th, tomorrow.
Fry, is looking the best of them all, lots of growth and staying nice and tight.
Morbo looks good, starting some good growth
Leela is eh, she is the slowest of the 3, I also haven't seen any pests or signs of anything, so the hole must be from nute spill.
Lil linda is doing great too! she is keeping nice and tight but slowly gaining some height, no signs of sadness.
I'm wondering, can I top my plants again? Or do I need to wait for a bit more growth? I want to limit stress as these are REGULAR seeds, not feminized. I know I know what im getting myself into lol
but I will be buying only fem seeds going forward.
Did LST on Tuesday16th
Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy, thanks for checking my diary out!👽
June 20/20
I'm actually so surprised at the first attempt at LST, and how they bounced back so well.
Fed plain PH water June 18/20
Everything this week has gone very well, so not really anything to complain about, the tent smells very green and I'm stoked for these lil babes.
Fry is the biggest by far, lots of tops and growth! No signs of any sadness or pests! Temp is a bit cooler in my basement but they are doing well.
Thanks for tuning in! 👽
June 27//2020
Good News Everyone!😇
This week went well, I can't believe they are already 2 months old.
The LST is going well! I keep adjusting every few days, FRY looks floppy because I did LST last night.
Lots of new growth coming in, making me so proud and happy. 😊
I did some Defo of the very underbelly of the plants, only 1 fan leaf per bigger plant- not too much.
So I do think maybe I might have gnats, I can't see them but I did notice Morbo has a small hole in a leaf now too. I will have to investigate further//
I am so clumsy with nutes when watering ( I try to be cautious and that's why I spill) So I should be a bit more loosey goosey. So I don't spill on their leaves// If this is the issue not gnats.
Overall everything is going good, they smell VERY green which is nice to smell something.
I feel like this grow, i'm much more in tune with the plants. As I am no longer a newbie haha, it's really nice to feel more connected to them in a weird way.
Lil Linda is behind obvs, shes more like 4 weeks instead of 8// Thinking of when to flip to flower, also remember these are regular seeds not feminized ( BOO )😔
But I am thinking possibly week 10? Depending on the growth. I need the grow to be done by Mid August.
I have been doing a feed-feed-flush schedule which seems to be working ok? I heard this nutrient line can sometimes build up salt and nutrients and was advised to do so by other growers. 👌
Note: I see red veins in some of the branches BUT this happened with the last GB grow also. I'm expecting the leaves to turn purple once I flip into flower also.
They are an interesting plant with unique phenotypes. It makes for a very unique looking plant haha.
Thanks for sticking around and reading the diary! Hope you all are staying safe. 👽

July 04// Week 9
Good News Everyone!😊
This week the progress was a bit hindered due to LST/ I might have went a bit too aggressive with it at first. But they got fed July 2nd and perked up a bit.
The past 2 days since the feeding, there has been a lot of new growth popping up! You can see the purple is starting to take color on the older fan leaves. 👽
I did Linda's first topping 2 days ago also, and there is growth coming in! WooHoo! I was feeling a bit bummed out since most of this week they have looked unhappy but now feeling better.
I'm thinking they are going to need more watering/feeding as of once a week seems to be pushing it. I defo'd the underbelly of the plants, some were yellow due to being hidden.
I moved Fry + Leela into the smaller tent with their own light, trying to encourage optimal growth I guess.
I may have possibly overdone the nutrients, I was following instructions but I think it was too much for my plants, so last feeding was 1ml per 1L
Not much else to report on, I believe I'm going to possibly send into gender reveal/ flower within the next 2 weeks to stick on track with my summer schedule.
Thanks for reading! Stay safe and happy growing!

whoopwhoobwhoobwhoop
weird week, wasn't able to upload diary// see week 11 for more details! they reveled their gender when i flipped to flower and we have 3 girls! i'm very happy to see this!
Good News Everyone!👽
Things were rocky last week and I am so busy I haven't had time to update.
But from the thanks of @Jinks101 we realized i've been starving them. I've only been feeding them 2ML/L when they should be getting 4ML/L .... lol stoner move on my part.
Like I said, been busy so forgetful happens, this week I flipped to flower because i'm on a deadline.
Great news is we have 3 girls! Well lil linda is really too young but she went with the flip also.. keeping my eye on it.
SO on July 16 I did a flush of PH balanced water of 6.6 195 PPM, run off was 6.8 and each plant had a different PPM run off.
Leela and Fry's runoff was 430 which i knew I might have a salt build up due to those two plants turning very pale in the past 2 weeks.
Morbo and Lil linda's run off was around 230 ish. So not as much as a build up but the problem is i'm starving them.
I noticed the size a bit small but assumed since it was my first time doing LST there might be more recovery time..
I really frigged up but i'm trying to save them and I think they are alot happier now. I will do a feed tomorrow.
Other than that, just watching the fun part now!
Kind of wanting to give up on these diaries but I don't do them for anyone else besides ME.
I've just become very busy and hard to set the time to take photo's and do the comments. Oh well.
Hope all is well, happy growing! Thanks for stopping by.

whoopwhoobwhoobwhoop
Good News Everyone!
We've got 4 GIRLS!!! That is so wild that my 4 regular seeds were all fem. They are much happier with the nutrient level bumped up! Very perky!
The two duos look so different. They have all grown alot since last week.. Leela and Fry gained at least 2-3 inches, i've been moving the light up every few days as they grow more.
I fed 2 days ago, and my next feed will be a flush in regards to build up. They are really looking so different from my last grow.
Fry is still pale from being starved but it does look improved from last week.
* *EDIT Flushed 7:54PM JULY28, PPM varied between plants but all hit 6.8 PH RO// Fry was 900 PPM, Leela 1000, Morbo 800, Linda 760PPM**
Did a light defo of all plants besides Linda
Other than that just waiting for magic to happen!
Thanks for reading n stopping by! Stay Safe and Happy Growing!
August 01/2020
Good News Everyone!
This week went well, I did a flush of 6.5PH water to figure out where my plants were sitting at with the increased nutes.
They all varied a bit but all RO sitting at 6.8PH and PPM fairly in range of eachother.
I just fed this after I took these photos, I wasn't planning on it but they seemed light and dry. I tested RO as I fed them this time also ( Trying to make it a habit).
All under 1000PPM, Fry and Leela around 880 Morbro 840 Linda 820, I think I might have to increase the amount of water per session, 2L for all 4 plants doesn't seem to be doing it now
and i'd rather not have to make a second batch up but that's the way it needs to be! Give them what they want!!!
This is week 13, from my last diary I harvest on week 18... So we'll see what happens, they have made alot of pistil action in the past few days.
Other than that, defo here and there with the underbelly of these bitches. I'm still shocked these regular seeds all are female.. Wowza.
I notice the red stems coming now, similar to the last grow, though the fans are looking very green when the last ones turned purple. Who knows.
They all look different, Fry has curling due to imbalance in nutes, Morbo is thick af and Linda is just chillin, but my prize Leela, oof she pretty 👽
Anyways, it's now august and hot as balls. I'm glad my basement stays cool but it's still 23.3 Celsius
Stay safe homies and happy growing.
August 8/2020
Good News Everyone!
Well average week, did a slight feed adjustment, Fry still has some curling but new growth looks great.
Lots of pistil action this week! Getting hairy! More of a smell i'm noticing which is awesome.
Not much to report back honestly, been very average.👽
Stay safe and happy growing!
Good news everyone!
Another week down , few more to go.
Morbo is behind the rest, which is weird but oh well. Temps dipped low this week as it seems like summer is over for me.
Getting more bulk everyday on the girls, so i'm excited.
Leela is still doing the best out of all, which makes me happy, looking forward to the harvest!
They are still not taking on a purple hue like the last grow, i'm assuming it had to do with the temperatures being very cold.
Getting more smelly! Woohoo!
Anyways, not much to report. Happy growing and harvesting! 👽
August 22/2020 💤
Good News Everyone.👽
Another week down, The girls all developed their first orange pistil! It's so cute. I'm hoping they will continue to pack some weight on.
My next grow I will be adding Big Bud into the schedule! But interesting to see how different they look from grow 1.
Leela is still doing great and my best looking one. Fry still has curling and it doesn't seem to get any better. I adjusted nutrients to add less nitrogen into the formula.
But they all get the same feeding so I wonder why? I did a flush last feed Aug 17 and she's had curling for a few weeks i'm pretty meh about it lol.
Linda is legit so impressive for a random seed sprouting with Morbo! She is looking thiiiiiiiiiick. I'm stoked as I was going to toss it when found.
Morbo still lacking and the least developed. Meh hoping she is just slow.
Not much really to update on, weather is getting cooler// I have the ceramic fan on outside tents now due to being 18 degrees in the basement, raining all day.
Thanks for hanging around n keeping an eye on the girls! Happy Growing! 💀
August 29/2020 🙌
Good News Everyone
Fairwell August, what a weird month. There has been more rain this summer than I've ever seen haha.. SO humidity has been high which is nice.
The plants smell very sour.. since this grow is going a bit differently than my first, im kind of rolling with it.
SO they look different, smell different, hopefully will still taste good!
A bit more growth to the buds, fattening up more orange hairs surfacing.
Leela looks great same with Linda. Morbo looks very pathetic. Fry still has a TON of curling and I guess it's how she'll be until the end.
I still don't have any idea what seeds i'll do next grow, I have a few picked out on TrueNorthSeedBank but not 100% set.
Anyways, not much to report on, taking it day by day. I'm hoping 3 more weeks? I'll start the flush when trichomes turn milky n a few amber.
Happy growing! 👽
September 5th/2020
Good News Everyone! 👽
Well my husband said he could smell the weed today from downstairs! That's awesome as I'm pretty used to the smell and can't overly recognize it.
The temperatures have been cooler, dipping down to 15 Celsius when lights off, so it's bringing out the purple hues finally~
I included a photo of Fry and Leela in tent, to show you how sad Fry actually looks lol. I don't get it- they both have had identical life/nutes. Oh well.
So Leela and Linda are my top winners for size of buds. Morbo and Fry are lacking.
No amber trichomes, hoping this week will bring us some of those!
I flushed on Weds, PPM is a bit high and also PH which i assume salt build up.
Other than that, i'm chillin not much else happenin. I have 2 strains picked out on True north which are Strawberry Banana Feminized Seeds (Canuk Seeds) - ELITE STRAIN and Black Cream Auto Feminized Seeds (Sweet Seeds).
Have you tried or any experience? I haven't even smoked these before but they sound/look nice!
Hoping all is well n happy harvesting!😻
September 14/2020
Good News Everyone!
Look how dark they have gotten! Temperature cooled down and her phenotype is thriving.
Leela still looks the best, Linda second. I just got a glimpse of the first amber trichomes! Woohoo!! Going to do 1 last flush and then chop will happen next week if all goes to plan!
Smell has bumped up, they smell pretty similar to the last grow but Fry and Leela have a bit of hint of gas.
Morbo and Fry are pretty disappointing in size, oh well. I did a flush Sept 8, runoff PPM was pretty high, salt build up and nearing the end of life.
Thanks for staying tuned in! Stay safe and happy growing!
Finally the end! October 2/2020
This feels like it took so long, by the time i'm writing this I hadn't updated in 3 weeks due to these ladies really taking along time to finish. I only saw 10-20% orange trichomes but was tired of waiting after i flushed for 2 weeks. I don't think i'll use fabric pots again, the roots get so stuck in there and i'm unable to see the true root ball. Anyways, not sure of the weight as I just hung to dry. I will update when I have the clear numbers.
Leela and Fry are going to be the ones with larger amounts, Lil Linda did great for being a seedling randomly pop up in one of my pots lol.. Morbo.... fucking pathetic lol.
Thanks for staying tuned while I gave god bud a second go. I don't have anymore seeds and i'm ready to experiment with something new. Ta Ta for now! 👽
Oct 9/2020
Trimmed weighed and into jars.. and wow seriously SUPER bummed on these numbers.... like barely over an oz for 4 plants... I tried different nutrients, training... I guess my only option is to get a new light?
Well I honestly don't even know if I want to keep doing these diaries.. yes it's great for me to look back on to see what i've done and the progress.. but seems to just be a waste.
I also can't seem to get this strain any taller/larger. Lucky that i'm out of these seeds and I can try something new.. anyways yeah not stoked.
