I have germinated my plants in the soil. It was my first time trying to do that, and the results were surprisingly good. In the beginning I have planted the seeds 1,5 cm below the surface, the soil was soaking wet, and it took only 5 days, until they popped out from the soil! My first pictures were made at the moment, when I added nutrients with water for the first time. I gave them Plagron terra grow, zym, and power roots as the official Plagron schedule suggests. I gave every plant precisely 1,11 litres of nutrient solution.
Note: In the beginning the lights were set to sun set mode, and dimmed to 40%. On the fifth day of first week I have increased the lights up to 80%, because they were a little bit too stretched. Now the plant started to produce beautiful leaves. Next monday I will add the next round of nutes, and I'll make some new photos!
Fun fact: One of the seedlings was retarded, and it started to grow upside down. I have turned it, but now the seed is crawling back tot he surface... I have never experienced something similar, but it looks funny, so I decided to keep it, and see what will happen. :) I'll add a picture of it.
This week my daughters grew a lot, I gave them the same Plagron Nutrients as last week. This week I had to increase the dosage of Terra Grow. This is the last time I add terra grow to my plants, according to Plagron I have to start giving them flowering nutrients from the third week.
The girls look healthy. Today I sprayed the leaves with some water to moisturise them(From now on, I do this everyday.). I've added a fan to strengthen them.
This is the third monday. The girls still look healthy, I gave blooming nutrients for the first time as the schedule suggested.
The Attack of Gnats:
Inside the tent there is a huge fan, which was unstable, if I tilted it too much, so I put a 20litre soil bag (with some cheap shitty soil for decorative flowers) at the base of it to make it solid. As the tent started to warm up, the soil was warm ask well. After a couple of days some gnats mysteriously appeared in the tent. First there were only two, but now there is a whole army. I bought a "special" trap for them, it came in a pear shaped plastic dispenser with some sort of "killer liquid" that will eliminate the enemy. As soon as I opened the little container with the liquid my first idea was to smell it. Surprisingly the smell was familiar, and I smelled it before in salads. I asked my girlfriend, and she immediately told me, that this killer liquid is nothing more than Apple Cider Vinegar. I searched google, and I found out, that you can make very effective gnat trap at home by using apple cider vinegar, sugar, and dish soap... This costs you almost nothing, because you can find everything at home. Learning every day.... :) Now there are only a few more gnats left, but I will kill them in the following days. 🙏 Namaste
The fourth week was a little bit adventurous.... As the plants started to flower, and the temperature outdoors started to warm up, the humidity raised up to 80%. Some of the leaves started to turn yellow, because it was too hot, and humid for them. First I was shocked, and I didn't know what to do. After some research I've ordered a dehumidifier, and I opened the tent and the windows into the growing room, because unfortunately right now that was the only way for me to circulate air in there... Everything else is okay, the plants drink twice as much water as they did in the beginning, I am giving nutrients only once a week, but I am hesitating on increasing the dosage. Or giving it twice.
Update: The dehumidifier is a piece of crap, I have ordered an advanced one, which is able to extract 10 litres of water per day. It will arrive next week.
This week I gave blooming nutrients for the second time. This is the last time I gave root stimulant, and enzymes to the plants. I bought a new dehumidifier, the capacity of it is 12litres/day. It works unexpectedly good, so the humidity for now is around 40% all day. You can see, that the plants started to bloom. I've cut all the unnecessary leaves from the plants, and cleaned out the growing area.
This is the sixth week of flowering. The plants feel really nice. Their water consumption increased, so I have to water them three times a week. First time I give them nutrients, the other two times I only give them fresh water. This week I gave them Green Sensation by Plagron. This is the first time I am experimenting with this additive. The lights are still at 80%+ sunlight simulation is on.
This week the flowers became bigger and denser. They all look very healthy, and the smell is really strong right now. If you enter the house you can smell it right at the entrance... Today I have increased the lights to 100% and the sunrise simulation was on as well. My prediction is that the Sweet ZZs will be the first plants that are ready to harvest, then the Royal Cookies, and then Green Gelato. I've set the dehumidifier to 40% humidity, because I would love to protect the buds from rotting. The temperature is around 25-26 degrees, the humidity is very stable.
This week nothing special happened. I gave nutrients to all of them, but this is the last time I gave nutrients to Sweet ZZ's, because I think they will be ready to harvest in one week approximately.
Hi everyone, I did not update my diary for a long time, because I was in a little trouble. The owner of the house came for a visit, and was really unhappy because of the tent, and the amount of the plants. From now on I am only allowed to grow maximum 5 plants, and I am not allowed to use my tent anymore, because it looks "too professional"- that was the opinion of the owner... I am sad, but at the same time happy, because I could end up in a way bigger trouble. So from now on I will only make diaries without the growing tent. and the amount of the plants will always be between 3-5 pieces (until I find a new place). This week nothing happened to the plants, but unfortunately I've got two weeks to finish the plants, because that's what the landlord told me, so I must harvest a little bit earlier, than expected... So now the flushing goes on, and next week they gonna be harvested...
The genetics were pretty good, unfortunately I did not have the opportunity to fully finish the plant, but definitely I recommend this plant to everyone. The taste is amazing, and the result is satisfying.
Unfortunately I had to finish a little bit earlier, but it's ok. This week I harvested both Sweet ZZ, and Royal Cookies all together they were 370 grams. I told the landlord, that I still have to finish 3 plants, because the two weeks were not enough, so I am allowed to finish the last 3 Green Gelatos, but I need to dismantle the tent... :D See you next week with my downgraded grow room.
Perfect flavour, perfect buds, incredible genetics highly recommend to everyone! This will be one of my favourite strains, really good before having sex. :)
This strain became one of my favourites. It tastes amazing, smells amazing, and it has an unbelievably good effect both on mind, and body. You feel relaxed, but at the same time energetic, it increases your libido, and puts your anxiety down. This plant is definitely a stress killer, I will grow this again some day.
Welcome to the downgraded version of the growing area. The Green Gelatos are still growing, but these plants were evolving in a strange way. They look bigger than the rest, but there is not as much resin on the buds, as the others. The smell is weak, I hope it will be better after curing. It seems like that this weed is more about the quantity than the quality this time, but I don't know why, maybe I underfed them?? Anyways I started flushing, next week I will harvest two of them, because my little retarded daughter still needs some time to finish.
My little retarded daughter is actually not as retarded as I thought. I had to wait for a longer time, than I expected, but it totally worth it. In the beginning I couldn't tell if she will survive, but right now as you see she has almost the biggest yield, and the best quality of the Green Gelatos. Because of her, my opinion completely changed about this plant. I recommend it to everyone, because it has a really high yield, and it has a strong effect. I prefer indica dominant strains, that's why its not my favourite, but overall this is a great plant to grow! :) Incredibly strong genetics!
This strain made good quantity and quality flowers. It became an average weed, that you can find on a regular basis, because unfortunately I have underfed them, gave them too much light, and harvested them too early. The effect is more sativa, than indica, that's why it will not be one of my favourite strains. I still recommend it to everyone, if you are more into sativa, and you care about high yields, than this is the plant you are looking for! :)
If you care about both quantity, and quality than this is the plant you are looking for. It grows relatively fast, and with a pretty large yield. The smell is really strong, the genetics are really strong, the plants turned out unexpectedly good. The flowers were developing mostly in the last weeks, and my worst looking plant became the best looking, and best quality plant of them all. You can see here my little retarded daughter's harvest as well. (In the beginning I gave a bad review about the plant, because the first two plants were not as good as I was expecting. The reason is because I have underfed them, they got too much light, and they were harvested earlier than normal. I personally prefer indica strains, that's why this strains is not one of my favourites. Overall I highly recommend it to everyone!. :)
Great job!! I have a plan to go fore 9 autoflower in 12,5 liter airpot. 120cmx120cm×200 cm and a spider farmer sf-4000 dimmable. Do you think It will be to much??
@Odin9, Yo! I think that if you will use the light at 100%, it will be too much definitely, but if you will dim it to 60-80% it will be good. You can use 100% in the last two weeks. :)
