TheGourmetWeed Hello everybody!
February is coming to an end, my last grow is almost finished, so I decided to throw a few more seeds on the ground.
As I've been a very nice guy lately, I decided to offer myself a AC-Infinity cloudline T6". Was tired of the old one, giving us all in the house the feeling of living in an airplane.
Feels good to be back to Earth, and to its regular noise level ahahah
And, on the streak of the well behavior, I also got a Spider Farmer SF4000. Still on the way, so I'll be starting the grow with my current setup as it is, making the change when it arrives.
Ah, and 9(!) different strains from @Fastbuds to try throughout this year. Couldn't resist their 2x1 sale on valentines.
Feels like Christmas came later. Or earlier.
This seed was a freebie, and seems like there aren't many diaries with it. Let's give it a go.
Going on a 11l fabric pot, with 10% Leca + 90% BioBizz All Mix.
To feed her, going to use the BioBizz line of products again. Still have them, and don't feel like spending more money in nutes after all the investment mentioned above.
To get her started, put her last night in a water glass, and now transferred to pre soaked Root Riot cubes. (Soaked them with 2ml per liter, used the rest of the water in the germination box, as it's self watering.
She'll be sharing the grow room with 2 Lemon Haze auto, and a Amnesia auto from Seedsman. The other 5 will decide later, also depending on their germination. But that's for another time.
Back to the Afghan lady:
Not sure what to expect, seems like a short plant with an average yield. Quick though, can play well in my planned SOG.
Will be back soon with more updates.
Have a great weekend!

TheGourmetWeed Hello growmies!
Another week finished and my little one is doing great!
Growing slowly but steady and healthy, with a nice green in the foliage.
Been watering only with root juice and bio heaven, mixed in a water solution rich in bean water and coffee residue, know for its rooting and growing properties. Forgot to measure PH tho..
Temps have been a little higher, and a low RH, as they're together with 3 other autos finishing their flowering period. In fact, it's flush time already, so hopefully the grow room will be set for the younger ones during the week.
Nothing particular to add this week regarding this plant, so I'll spare our time for another week with more interesting content.
Have a good week!

TheGourmetWeed One more week is now finished, let's have a look as what happened during this last 7 days and nights
Used the weekend to make a nice big cleaning, it'll be good for the next couple weeks. Can't say enough times how important it is to keep it all clean and mess free.
She was finally topped this week, and had a great reaction, she's really thriving! Also cut the lowest branches now to increase growth on top, instead of keeping future popcorn buds.
Now that's been over 72h can affirm that.
Nice growth, she's enjoying a lot the coffee/chickpea tea with Co2 tabs and the nutrients from BioBizz as it shows in the pictures. Root juice is off now, mission accomplished with distinction :D
The feeding chart's been the following:
600ml water on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday - Total this week 18 00ml water
Temps and RH are very stable, which is great. 27c day 60%Rh, 24c night 71%Rh.
Start to see the first signs of pre-flowering. Great news!
That's all for now, next week there'll be more.
Have a nice week, happy grows to all, and better smoke :D

TheGourmetWeed One more week is now finished, let's have a look as what happened during this last 7 days and nights
Used the weekend to make a nice cleaning again - I like to take all from the tent and clean on Sundays. Gives a good feeling.
Flowering is here, and like to see the structure of the plant. She's doing very well, has a beautiful green foliage, even though she's showing some deficiencies - seems like a little calmag will do the trick.
Temps and RH are very stable, which is great. 27c day 60%Rh 24c night ~70%RH
That's all for now, next week there'll be more.
Have a nice week, happy grows to all, and better smoke :D

TheGourmetWeed Foliage looks good and light green, no weird spots.
Cut some leaves and buds close to the bottom of the plant, trying to lollipop it to maximize the light exposure.
Considering increasing the N level on the equation, just by adding more fish mix or bio grow. That should fix it.
Stem is really strong also, and that always gives me a good feeling for the overall growth.
The only downside on this ferts is the smell, kinda stinks a bit when using it, but if all the problems in the world were that small...
Been feeding her nutes every 48h

TheGourmetWeed Hey guys!
New week, here we are!
As always, every Sunday is cleaning day. Took everything again from the tent, washed the saucers.
Was also time to cut down some leaves as it was starting to look very bushy and hard for the light to get through it.
During that time, came across with some bugs under the foliage, which isn't a great sign for sure. Not to mention the fruit flies that moved in and are making my life a little chaos.
Reducing now the RH a bit, and watering now on every 72h instead of 48h to keep the grow as dry as possible. Increasing the ventilator speed was another attempt, it so much air circulating should be hard for them to make a living inside. Just put now more of those fly traps and will add a couple glasses of cider vinegar here and there, as it attracts most of the flying things with success.
Note that some plants are yellowing/fading away and that's never a good sign This is the one with the most visible symptoms, And keep scratching my head around it.
Thought for few weeks it was Nitrogen deficiency, but after increasing it and the CalMag values, the problem persists, so I'm inclined for something bug related.
Besides that, temps are still very stable, RH was changed, now to 40% tops, and the light went a little lower to get it closer to the plants - always with the light burn effect in mind. 40cm is the line between the tops and the lamp.
Flowering is looking good, buds are forming well and seems that's gonna be a good ending if I can keep the bugs under control.
No smell yet, the Amnesia takes over in that field, giving her a few more days/weeks until we can start feeling her scent :D
That's all folks, have a great week

Wow she’s going great! What’s garbanzo water and coffee water dude?
likes
TheGourmetWeedcommented4y ago
@@futureisgreen, hey buddy, sorry for the late reply!
Garbanzo = chickpeas in spanish (old habits of mine)
Basically when I cook beans of any kind, I save the soaking water and some of the cooking water. This process is also called "aquafaba" and honestly, there are few rooting products that can beat it
Coffee water is the same thing: open my used nespresso capsules, bring to boiling, let sit for at least 12h. Strain the water for using, save the coffee residue for composting/mixing in the soil.
There are plenty of options for different stages, have a look here:
