Week 1 Day 1 (04/01/2021)💧: It took 3 days for the first one seed to sprout, but Delta looks so cute! Bravo and Charlie have also sprouted out but are still a bit stuck in the soil. I’ll let them do their thing. I gave them 300ml of water each just to make sure the soil is being kept moist and I’ve also put in a humidifier into the tent to keep the humidity at 65% while they are still small. Day 2 (05/01/2021): Today all of the babies have finally come out of the soil. Alpha still has the seed shell stuck but I think she should be fine tomorrow. Bravo is growing a bit leggy and only dropped the seed shell a few hours ago. Charlie has dropped the seed shell and opened up quite nicely. Delta is growing stronger and bigger 💪 and Echo is a little cute seedling Day 3 (06/01/2021)💧: All the seedlings are growing strong today! Alpha still had thee seed shell on when I started watering but the water got it off quite easily, hope she opens up by tomorrow! I watered them with 300ml each and added some BioBizz Root Juice (4ml/1L) to make sure their roots grow super strong! I tried to water mainly in the centre of the pot since their roots will still be tiny and I don’t want to waste the water/nutrients. So I think I will be watering them with 300ml every other day (when the soil gets dry) and then increase when I start to see that they need more. Day 4 (07/01/2021): Omg Alpha opened up today and she sure looks a bit weird with three leaves! How crazy is that, I’ve never seen anything like it. I googled it and apparently it can happen so I wonder if she will grow with a triple set of leaves?? How weird but super interesting! And the other seedlings seem to be growing really healthy so far! Day 5 (08/01/2021): Alpha is still growing the triple leaves but so far it looks like the first set of leaves is growing in a pair. What a weird little mutation! Bravo is actually stretching quite tall so I am considering putting a but more soil on top to make the stem shorter and make sure it doesn’t fall from the weight. Will think about it... Day 6 (09/01/2021)💧: The baby seedlings are looking beautiful today and most of them have the second set of leaves already 😍 I also watered them today with the same 4ml/L of root juice and 300ml of water each. Day 7 (10/01/2021): Alpha seems to be doing well with the triple leaves 😂 although she does look a bit smaller than the others so I hope the three leaf mutation doesn’t stunt her growth! Delta is looking the biggest so far, with the second pair of leaves already so big! Overall I think the seedlings definitely made a lot of progress in their first week!

Week 2 Day 8 (11/01/2021)💧: Uh oh, not a great start to the week since I noticed some gnat flies in the tent😔 This happened during the late veg of the last grow as well and they are back even though I used different soil! I don’t understand where they come from but luckily I have the neem oil ready. I sprayed all around the tent, on the girls, and added it to the watering as well. Luckily the girls are quite small so it’s easy to get around them and under the leaves. Hopefully they should go away in a few weeks and I will keep spraying every Monday before lights out to make sure these flies disappear… I’ve also still added Root Juice to the watering because the flies usually damage the roots so I want to make sure their roots can get more of the Root Juice booster. Day 9 (12/01/2021): Omg when I was taking a picture of Alpha today I noticed that her 2nd pair of true leaves is a triple leaf! I wonder if she will continue growing with a triple set of leaves but I am very curious to find out how she will grow compared to the others. The others are doing quite well and I decided not to add extra soil to the “leggy” ones in the end because I actually want to test to see if it’s better to leave the stems long or keep them short when they are small seedlings. And Delta is doing the best at the moment with quite big beautiful leaves! Day 10 (13/01/2021): I just can’t stop being amazed at Alpha because it’s more clear to see now that even the first set of leaves looks like there is a third leaf missing and the second pair are also triplets. I am sooo curious to see how she will look like in a few weeks! And Echo is actually pulling through with a third set of leaves. Day 11 (14/01/2021)💧: Watered the girls today and decided it was time to start adding the BioGrow to make sure they’ve got all the nutrients they need. I will be doing 1ml/1L of BioGrow until the end of the grow. Both Delta and Echo are getting very big, which is great! Day 12 (15/01/2021): Alpha doesn’t seem to be growing as fast as the others from day to day so I hope she will be okay. You can see how much smaller is already is compared to the others that are all roughly the same size now. I’ve also noticed some yellow spots on the leaves of Bravo and I hope it’s not a deficiency already… Will keep a close eye 👁️ Also on Delta and Echo I’ve noticed new leaves coming from the stem 😻 Day 13 (16/01/2021): No pics today unfortunately, been super busy lately, that’s why decided to keep it to a one-strain only grow 😂 Day 14 (17/01/2021)💧: Last day of the second week – looking great (except Alpha 😅 ). She looks a lot more “curly” than the others did at this size, and I don’t know if that’s because of the mutation? Weird. Watered all of them with 300ml each and BioGrow. I don’t think they are big enough to increase the watering so I’ll probably just. keep it the same for next week as well.

Week 3 Day 15 (18/01/2021): The girls are all looking super good today 👌 I sprayed with neem oil before lights out because unfortunately the gnat flies are still persisting. It is only one or two every few days but I know that if I don’t spray they will multiply, so will probably be spraying for the next few mondays as well. Day 16 (19/01/2021): They grow so much from day to day, even just comparing to the picture from yesterday, they have grown so much! Love it 😍 Day 17 (20/01/2021)💧: I watered the girls today with 300ml of water each and 1ml/L of BioGrow. I think they are getting pretty big now so at the next watering I will probably double the water Still 300ml each with biogrow only Day 18 (21/01/2021): The girls are definitely growing faster than I can keep up. I swear I’ll blink and they will be ready for harvest already! Day 19 (22/01/2021): Loads of new leaves coming out from the stems on all the girls! It seems like they will be ready for training very soon! I won’t be topping or fimming these girls because I want these autos to be done quite quick and don’t want to stunt their growth. Although I will be defoliating if fan leaves start getting in the way of the bud sites. Day 20 (23/01/2021): I was meant to water today but really didn’t have time. I’m sure they will be okay but will water tomorrow! Day 21 (24/01/2021)💧: Watered the girls today with double the water since last time (600ml each now) and still giving them BioGrow until they start to go into flower.

Week 4 Day 22 (25/01/2021): Sprayed them with neem oil today as usual. Also it’s so interesting how different they all look. Bravo is the tallest and most spread out, Charlie is the bushies, and Delta is the biggest one. So interested to see the differences Day 23 (26/01/2021): Sooo I noticed they they are kind starting to flower and I guess I should have started LST earlier but I thought they were still too small… So I started LST today on all the girls except Alpha since her leaves are all so bushy and close to the main stem it’s really difficult to separate them. Day 24 (27/01/2021)💧: OMG they are already starting to flower… How? I just started training 😅 Yeah I think my timing was a bit late here but the girls are looking good at least! I also watered with 600ml of water with 1ml/L BioGrow and adjusted the LST a little bit. Decided not to defoliate yet since the buds are not really covered by the fan leaves Day 25 (28/01/2021): Didn’t have time to take pictures today but they should be doing good 👍 Day 26 (29/01/2021): Alpha is getting even bushier somehow. It’s crazy but she looks completely different from the other girls, like a completely different strain and as if she’s 2 weeks behind. All the other girls are now forming their buds and looking beautiful! Day 27 (30/01/2021)💧: Today I watered all the girls with 600ml of water with 1ml/L of BioGrow. I think next week as I will start considering them to be in flower, I will start with a larger watering and start adding some flower nutrients to make sure they grow strong and healthy! I also started LST on Alpha today by just tying down the top, because she looks like she’s getting big enough AND I saw little pistils on the stem which is a great sign! Day 28 (31/01/2021): Unfortunatelly have been really busy today and didn’t get time to take the end of the week pics, but will take some nice ones tomorrow.

Week 5 Day 29 (01/02/2021): I think today we can officially say that they are in flower! I’ll also start giving them Flowering nutrients from the next watering (tomorrow) and I will also increase the amount of water to 1.5L of water. I think they are now big enough where they will need more water and even if a bit gets wasted I much prefer them having access to enough water and nutrients in flowering. I also sprayed them again with neem oil before the lights went out today since there are still very few flies now and then. Also Alpha is finally showing a tiny bud but she still looks so different to everyone else 😅 Day 30 (02/02/2021)💧: Since they are getting taller, I’ve adjusted the light today to make sure it’s 60cm above the girls. Also our small fan went bust today which sucks, so gonna need to order a new one asap. I also started watering them with Bloom nutrients today and increased it to 1.5L of water for each plant! Now I gave them 1ml/L of BioGrow, 1ml/L of BioBloom, and 1ml/L of TopMax. Day 31 (03/02/2021): Still has been without a small fan because we can’t find a good one anywhere. Since the fan has to be on 24/7 we’ve been looking for a better one but still not found anything. The girls seem fine without it for now but will definitely need to order one in the next few days. Day 32 (04/02/2021): All the girls are looking great and very healthy! I haven’t noticed any problems on the leaves on any of them and the buds are all getting quite big now as well Day 33 (05/02/2021): Oh. My. God. I fucked up bad. I was doing LST on the smaller branches of Alpha and wanted to tighten the main branch but it was too stiff and IT SNAPPED OFF COMPLETELY 😱😱😱 I taped it with some ductape and it seems to be holding the stem well but I have no idea if she will survive this. I was so curious of how she was gonna be compared to the other girls :( Also I was supposed to water them today but the soil was actually still moist so probably better to let it dry out a bit and water tomorrow instead. Day 34 (06/02/2021)💧: Checked Alpha in the morning and unfortunately the top I snapped off didn’t make it ☹️ Although this exposed some of the bud sites at the bottom, so hopefully she can still grow those! Also ordered a new fan today that should be arriving next Wednesday, hopefully this one won’t break in like 8 months 😒 Watered the girls as well, same as last time with 1.5L of water each and 1.5ml of BioGrow, BioBloom, and TopMax each. They are looking really good! Day 35 (07/02/2021): Decided to do a little defoliation on the girls today since some of the big fan leaves were covering up the bud sites. I removed some leaves from all the girls (mainly only the fan leaves that were blocking the light) but not too much to put them into shock. All of the leaves were very healthy with no signs of any deficiencies at all surprisingly. Must be a really resilient strain!

Week 6 Day 36 (08/02/2021): Girls are looking goooood. I’m gonna remove the humidifier today because even on the lowest setting and adding tape on top, the humidity gets way too high for flower (around 65%) so I think they should be good without it. I’m also not gonna spray neem oil anymore since I haven’t seen any flies last week and I don’t really want to spray it on the buds now. Day 37 (09/02/2021)💧: Actually forgot to take pictures today lol… But watered the girls, keeping with the same nutrients as last week: 1.5ml of BioGrow, 1.5ml of BioBloom and 1.5ml of TopMax for 1.5L of water Day 38 (10/02/2021): Omg there are so many trichomes even on the fan leaves. You can tell these are gonna be 🔥🔥🔥. Alpha is still looking the most different but at least the buds are growing. Although I think I will need to take her out early when the others are ready so they can all dry together in the tent. Day 39 (11/02/2021): Didn’t have time to take pics today ✌️ Day 40 (12/02/2021)💧: The new fan finally arrived so the girls can finally have some air circulation again 😅. Actually Alpha started stretching out quite a bit, even compared to two days ago it feels like the buds are much closer to the light now. But also watered them today with the same nutrients as last time (1ml/L of BioGrow, BioBloom, and TopMax), although next week I will increase the BioBloom! Day 41 (13/02/2021): I am actually pretty amazed at this strain considering all the girls have not shown any nutrient or leaf problems this whole time when all of my previous grows had some kind of issue. These have even had gnats since the very beginning and still not had any issues on the leaves. Super strong strain 💪 Day 42 (14/02/2021): I swear I defoliated them a week ago and the leaves are all back fully grown as if nothing happened 😂 I’m not gonna touch them for about two weeks just to make sure they are not under too much stress during flowering

Week 7 Day 43 (15/02/2021): I was going to water the girls today but actually the soil was still moist. I thought they would be needing more water but definitely better to let the soil dry out a bit more. Day 44 (16/02/2021)💧: The girls are getting an increase in BioBloom today since they are in the 3rd week of flower. The time flies so fast, soon they will be ready to harvest!!! Giving them 1ml/L of BioGrow, 1ml/L of TopMax and doubling to 2ml/L of BioBloom. Day 45 (17/02/2021): Charlie is so beautiful and her leaves are always pointing up! I’m al still overall surprised how low-maintenance and resistant these girls are. I guess one reason could be that I’ve been sticking to the recommended BioBizz feeding schedule where in the previous grows I was doing less than recommended. Really amazing grow and very nice strain with dense trichomes! Day 46 (18/02/2021): No time to take pics today Day 47 (19/02/2021): Apha has actually outgrown the other girls in height now which is a bit crazy. She seems to be recovering well after “The Snappening” 😂 And those trichomes are looking soooo juicy and dense 🤩 Day 48 (20/02/2021)💧: Watered the girls today with the same as last time: 1ml/L of BioGrow, 1ml/L of TopMax and 2ml/L of BioBloom. But I think the girls are getting a bushy with leaves so I will defoliate tomorrow Day 49 (21/02/2021): Today I decided to defoliate the girls a little bit. My strategy was to mainly remove all the fan leaves that are covering up the bud sites and leaving the leaves at the very bottom so the plants can breathe. I actually kept some of the leaves with the most trichomes to put into the freezer and make bubble hash later ✌️

Week 8 Day 50 (22/02/2021): No time to take pics today 🌿 Day 51 (23/02/2021): Girls are doing great as always! And looks like they haven’t been affected much by the defoliation since the leaves are still growing bigger. Still noticing that they are not using up that much water since the soil is a bit damp. Day 52 (24/02/2021)💧: Today I noticed some more gnat flies :( I was hoping they have gone away and I don’t want to spray on the buds at this point so I will add neem oil with plant soap for the next few waterings. So today I gave them 5ml of neem oil, 10ml of plant soap, 1.5ml of BioGrow, 3ml of BioBloom, and 1.5ml of TopMax Day 53 (25/02/2021): Didn’t get a chance to take pics✌️ Day 54 (26/02/2021): How have the leaves grown back so quick! Especially on Charlie, it’s like I didn’t even defoliate. But it’s actually crazy how different they all look. The leaf and bud density, the colour and structure of the leaves, the colour of the buds and pistils – they are all so different. Day 55 (27/02/2021): No time to take pics again✌️ Day 56 (28/02/2021)💧: Today I gave the girls their nutrients with neem oil. Again, I’m noticing that they are actually happy with watering every 4th day. So today I gave them 5ml of neem oil, 10ml of plant soap, 1.5ml of BioGrow, 3ml of BioBloom, and 1.5ml of TopMax. The pistils are definitely maturing and look like they should be ready for harvest very soon!

Week 9 Day 57 (01/03/2021): Noticed today that some of the leaves on the bottom are getting a bit yellow, so not sure if they are showing early signs of deficiency but I guess there is no point fixing it now. Honestly, I am generally impressed how long they lasted without a single deficiency! Day 58 (02/03/2021): Didn’t get a chance to take pics✌️ Day 59 (03/03/2021): Yep, took a closer look at the leaves today and it seems like they are for sure having some kind of deficiency but I can’t tell which one. Some of the girls (Bravo, Charlie, Echo) are getting yellowing leaves which it a Nitrogen deficiency, but Delta and Bravo are also showing some kind of brown/silverish deficiency which could be Calcium. Either way, I guess it’s too late and no point of fixing it now so close to harvest. Day 60 (04/03/2021): I really wanted to water today but the soil was really still not dry… I don’t understand why they are using so little water because one watering a week is very little… I even tried to poke around the holes in the sides of the pots Day 61 (05/03/2021)💧: Watered the girls today, which is actually going to be their last watering with nutrients since I think they are about 2 weeks out from harvest! I can’t believe how quick these girls went, and I know they are autos but the time really flew by and they were so easy to grow! So today I gave them 1.5ml of BioGrow, 6ml of BioBloom and 6ml of TopMax (for 1.5L of water) Day 62 (06/03/2021): No time to take pics today 🌿 Day 63 (07/03/2021): Oh wow, Charlie is looking amazing today! Showing some beautiful black-purple colours on the sugar leaves and they are curling up slightly. So different to the other girls! Although the others (Delta and Charlie in particular) seem to have bigger and juicier buds. But all of them are PACKED with trichomes, even poor Alpha. But overall from the trichomes it seems that most of them are cloudy now with a few amber so I will give them two more weeks to fatten up and then it’s harvest time :D

Week 10 Day 64 (08/03/2021)💧: The girls look like they are finally taking in a bit more water than they were, so the soil was quite dry today. I think they are now 2 weeks away from harvest so today I will be giving them water with just a bit of TopMax (6ml) to give the buds the last boost! Also this week is going to be very busy, so won’t be taking pics every day. Day 65 (09/03/2021): No time to take pics today✌️ Day 66 (10/03/2021): No time to take pics today✌️ Day 67 (11/03/2021)💧: The leaves on the girls have gone mad purple since the last watering! And Echo’s buds are even purple as well. Also tried to take some closeups of the trichomes and they are definitely getting there, about 10% are amber now. So this week I’ve started the flush and for this watering I will just be giving them 1.5L of water! Day 68 (12/03/2021): No time to take pics today✌️ Day 69 (13/03/2021): No time to take pics today✌️ Day 70 (14/03/2021)💧: Wow, they are looking like autumn trees with all the different colours on the leaves! But damn, they look so beautiful 💚 And the trichomes are definitely getting there, but the harvest will be next weekend. Also watered all the girls with 1.5L of plain water since the soil was dry.

Week 11 Day 71 (15/03/2021): No time to take pics today ✌️ Day 72 (16/03/2021): Looking good but more and more leaves are drying up or turning yellow. But at this point there is definitely no point in stressing the girls by removing them. Although the colours definitely look nice! Day 73 (17/03/2021)💧: Today will be the last watering for the girls so they have a few days to take up the last bits of moisture before harvest. I can’t believe how fast this grow went but I have definitely learned a lot from it. Day 74 (18/03/2021): They look so nice and colourful, definitely an interesting bunch of girls :D Can’t wait for the harvest and cure Day 75 (19/03/2021): No time to take pics today ✌️ Day 76 (20/03/2021): No time to take pics today but harvest day tomorrow!!!! Day 77 (21/03/2021): HARVEST DAY! What a great journey it has been growing these girls. They were so resilient and only started showing symptoms of deficiency in the last few weeks. They are absolutely covered in trichomes and smell very pungent. I think they will be super hard hitters! And it still amazes me how different they all are. Echo is even completely purple! Can’t wait to trim and dry these girls and will definitely make some bubble hash from all the trichomes on the leaves too 🤤 Will follow up with a review soon! (after they’ve cured for a bit)

Overall it was quite an easy grow, but one of the seeds had some kind of genetic disease so it looked very different to the rest and produced the least in the end. Alpha: 16g Bravo: 27g Charlie: 19g Delta: 19g Echo: 33g Total dry: 114g It was very clear from the beginning of how Echo was trained that it will yield the most in the end. I need to try to replicate that during the next grows 😁 But overall this strain was very quick and produced extreeemely dense buds 😍
