Mi Primera Cuarentena y Cosecha

Highlaing Hello Growdiaries Friends. My name is Highlaing and this is my first grow. I must admit that since the idea of growing came up, I didn't know anything about it, I'm a smoker but I had never grown before. I invested in these "materials" for my first grow, thanks to tricomar who advised me on buying my equipment 👏. >Darkbox tent 100x100x200 >E40 socket reflector >Magnetic ballast 250w >Dual bulb (growth-flora) 250w vanguard >Extractor 4:20 all time 5 160m/3h >Indoor BIOBIZZ try pack fertilizer >BIOBIZZ - Light max substrate >Fan >Hygrometer I hope to share the experience I gain here, as well as notes and comments for future harvests. 5/05/2020 I PUT 6 AUTOMATIC SEEDS TO GERMINATE IN A WET PAPER INSIDE A PLASTIC POT, I PUT THEM NEXT TO MY XBOX ONE. 👽 C4 FROM FASTBUDS X3 😎 CHEESE AUTO 420 FROM 420 GENETICS X1 💩 BLUE PIRAMYD AUTO x2 😵‍💫 The temperature ranged between 21º and 25º Celsius. I also decided that day to apply continuous photoperiods of 20/4 from the first minute in the pot. So from 14:00 to 18:00 they would be in the dark (local time in CHILE). 9/05/2020 GERMINATION WAS ALREADY 10/10 SO I PROCEEDED TO TRANSFER THEM DIRECTLY TO THE POT. I HAVEN'T APPLIED ROOTING AGENT SINCE AFTER BUYING ALL THE REST OF THE STUFF I WAS LEFT BROKE HAHAHA SO I’LL WAIT A FEW DAYS TO APPLY A LITTLE. (temperature between 26º and 27º and humidity at 35% - 70%). At the moment of transferring to the pot, the tails of the seeds measured approximately 1 to 2 mm. 😷 I applied about 400 ml of room temperature water, in circles around where I placed the seed and then a little on top of it. I placed the seed about 2 cm under the soil and started with the 20/4 photoperiod. 10/5/2020 THE SEEDS HAVE ALREADY POPPED UP ABOUT 2 CM ABOVE THE SUBSTRATE. 😁 ESPECIALLY THE TWO C4 AND THE CHEESE, THE BLUE PIRAMYD SEEMS TO BE TAKING A LITTLE LONGER TO COME OUT. 😢 11/05/2020 I APPLIED HESI ROOT COMPLEX TO THE 6 PLANTS, THEY LOOK SUPER GOOD. P.S.: I PROMISE TO LEARN TO TAKE BETTER PHOTOS DURING THIS PROCESS TOO!! HAHA HI FRIENDS, I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO COMMENTS, SUGGESTIONS, EVERYTHING! 15/05/2020 THEY ARE ALREADY VERY BIG APPROX 5 CM, ALL LOOK VERY GOOD THOUGH SOME ARE A LITTLE MORE YELLOW THAN OTHERS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE THE SAME STRAIN. THE 3RD AND 4TH LEAVES ARE ALSO STARTING TO COME OUT. I’M VERY EXCITED TO KNOW HOW BIG THEY WILL END UP. THERE'S STILL ONE DAY LEFT TO FINISH THE FIRST WEEK, FROM WHEN THEY WERE PUT TO GERMINATE ON 8/05 UNTIL I PUT THEM IN SOIL ON 9/05/2020, IT HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE GROWTH.

Highlaing Hello friends!! 👽 Thank you so much to everyone who has taken the time to leave me a comment or give me some advice for my plants. 😎 Honestly, my anxiety is what I'm working on the most with my first grow!! Haha, but it has been a great week; from the generation until 05/16/2020, they grew about 8 cm and created all their first leaves, it even seems like the second node is coming, I think that's what it's called. Since 05/16, I dissolved about 2.5 ML of HESI rooting agent "root complex" and 1 ML, maybe less, of BIOBIZZ BIOGROW fertilizer in 1 liter of water. I gave each of them 500 ML. EXCEPT FOR ONE, here my inner scientist emerged, and I gave one of the C4 from FASTBUDS the whole liter. 💪💪 I want to know how much my plants will need, 500 ml or 1 liter, and what better way to find out than to try. The daytime temperature varies between 25 and 27 degrees Celsius. The nighttime temperature varies between 20 and 22 degrees Celsius. Humidity also varies between 50 during the day and 70 at night. They are watered every 2 or 3 days; honestly, I'm constantly checking and seeing how they evolve, also what they might need (quarantine effect, first grow, and anxiety, I think haha) 😵‍💫 We're on 05/17/2020, and honestly, they are all growing very fast. They're already creating their 4th and 5th leaves; since I have different varieties, I don't know what to expect in terms of their size. What I do know after seeing many diaries, reading, and watching videos is that I won't apply stress techniques, except for the wind from the fan; is this LST? 05/19/2020 Hello friends, a new report on the beauties. THEY ARE GROWING VERY FAST!! The 6 are growing very quickly and evenly since I've been applying BIOGROW; the C4, which is a bit more yellow, is the one that is getting the biggest, almost reaching 10 cm 👏. C4 FASTBUDS ----------> 8 TO 10 CM BLUE PYRAMID PYRAMID SEED--------> 6 TO 7 CM CHEESE 420GENETICS (CHILENA)--------> 7 CM I keep the temperature between 25 and 27 during the day and 18 to 22 when the lights are off. I'm watering approximately one hour BEFORE turning off the lights, so they have time to eat and then do it with light. 💪 I watered today, 05/19/20; the pots were already much lighter (thanks to everyone for the advice on weighing the pot, haha, you guys are awesome!). I'm watering all of them with 500 ML of tap water, without measuring the pH (I know it's just watering, but I promise to optimize my instruments and techniques for the next grow 👽). I dissolve the fertilizers in 1 liter of water and apply half a liter per plant. BIOBIZZ BIOGROW ------> 1.8 ML X 1 LITER OF WATER HESI ROOT COMPLEX ----> 2.5 ML X 1 LITER OF WATER Last week, when watering, I did it around the pot, and this week I will water around but from the center, so hopefully, the roots can spread better through the soil (substrate). I'm thinking of using defoliation on one of the plants; will that be a good idea? REGARDS, AND I HOPE TO HAVE NEW NEWS FOR YOU SOON HIGHLAING

Highlaing Hello friends!! 05/25/20 Great week for the girls! I hope you are all doing well in your countries with all this COVID madness. This week I watered them with the fertilizers for week 3 according to the BIOBIZZ program. The truth is that since I applied them, the growth has been noticeable! (I applied less than recommended to gradually increase the doses). One of the plants, a BLUE PYRAMID, was very droopy in the middle of the week; I think it was too much water since I forgot that I had already watered THAT one with a liter, but it actually handled my mistake very well. The other BLUE PYRAMID has some spots; it looks like a dalmatian, haha, could it be a genetic flaw? Honestly, I'm not feeling very confident about the genetics from Pyramid Seeds, but it might be a hasty judgment; we need to have faith. 05/29/2020 They keep growing really big, and they have already shown their sex; some white hairs started to appear on their nodes and on some of their leaves. Is it flowering or just showing sex? I hope this week is full of surprises, and I will be uploading new information as soon as there are changes. I HOPE FOR YOUR HELP AND SUGGESTIONS, FRIENDS!

Highlaing This week I started watering them all with a liter of water. One of the BLUE PYRAMID turned out tiny and the other one is really weird, I think I’ll never buy their seeds again. Meanwhile, the fastbuds ones UFFFF are incredible, those C4 just like the cheese from 420 genetics. They’ve already started to bud and are growing a lot, about 3 cm a day haha I think it’s awesome!

Highlaing Hello, hello, it's Highlaing's sister here, to give another perspective on the diary. We're already in week 7, almost two months since this project started, and we can see deeper changes in the plants, their sizes, leaves, smell, etc. The biggest news is that the C4 have apparently finished defining their color, and so far both are taking on purple hues with an aroma reminiscent of citrus, like tangerine or something like that. The height of the Auto Blue Pyramid is 56 cm, and it has a rather neutral aroma. At the beginning of this week, several of the girls underwent their defoliation process, as last week after several obstacles (solvable), the lower leaves looked very droopy and the tips were already stained a brownish color. By asking and looking at other diaries, we realized that it was a normal process, especially in plants that are close to finishing the process. So, we removed some leaves, with the aim, of course, that the light, especially in the plants that are lower down, reaches more directly and evenly.
