D92/FD64 - Nothing new to report here...pistils darkening some and retracting so getting there. Not really that frosty I must say but then again, no UVB on them to give them that boost! Still feared for the 2 big girl colas, they were nearest the Botrytis outbreak on the Red Hot Cookies - bought a Hotbox Sulfume (and about 50 other potential organic pesticide options from Potassium Bicarb to Trichoderma/Bacillus mixes!!! :P ) for the next run but thinking of an emergeny couple of 2 hour blasts to ensure any spores in there killed as if I dont, I may have nothing at all at the end of this! It's either live with a *possible* taste (A lot of people seem to say short blasts, a couple of days apart, leaves no [discernable] taste, even v. late in flower - plus most finishers/flushers are high in Sulfur as the plant uses it for terps/oils and the likes) or no taste as everything is for the firepit!!! Apart from that, just monitoring for any weird changes to sugar leaves that may imply signs of trouble. Happy growing all!!! 💪

July 20th, 57 days post flip. Plant is maturing well. I was worried with the color changes that she wouldn’t put on much weight but the buds are still fattening and gaining weight. Starting to see some of the branches not caught by the scrog starting to collapse. Most Trichomes are still clear, seeing some orange Trichomes on the leaves but none at all on the calyxes so thinking another week or two. I did lower the lights from 80% down to 60% on July 19th to slightly lower my DLI in the last week or two. Will continue to give only water, been watering by hand as the auto set up was under watering. She seems to be responding much better to hand waterings. Smell has been and still is crazy, cannot wait to smoke this thing. I tried squeezing one of the upper buds and she is beyond dense, I couldn’t even get the bud to collapse. I took a small popcorn and will give it a test in a week or two likely around the same time the plant gets chopped. God bless!

This model was grown for ointment production. So waiting for amber trichomes was pointless. For ointment, it is good to have the THC as active as possible when the trichomes are fully milky, not overripe.. Before applying it to my skin, I made a small piece of hash. The ball weighed 2.2 grams and was pleasantly strong, citrusy, and had a hashish scent..

Critical x Animal Cookies take 2 is well underway. She germinated, and sprouted well. Hplvd destroyed my garden, and this was in last grow so started fresh. Everything is looking pretty good with the Hortibloom Solux 350 which is at 50 percent. I don't want these little ones stretching too much to get light. She is ready to go. Thank you Hortibloom, and Ripper Seeds. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Cookies Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

Time for her to go to the dark room. She has finally finished up her growth it was my first time growing this strain I will do much better next time up. Now it is harvesting and curing then testing to see how she taste. Didn't get much out of her but the best things come in small packages.I will keep GD updated on the curing and how much did I come out with hope I have better luck next time on the size I really learn alot from the GD family.

Tangie'matic showed me that she was in it for the long haul right from the start. This was my first time topping an autoflower and I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out - but each time she took on stress, she pushed back even stronger. I topped her once at the 5th node, and then used some low stress training to create this beautiful canopy. She really grew like a dream! Partway through flower I had to move my grow tent from my second-floor bedroom to my not quite warm enough basement. I had assumed that the heat from the grow lights would have compensated, but it didn't take me long to realize how wrong I was. This poor plant had her reservoir and atmospheric temperatures dropped with no warning. She held in there while I figured out how to get the environment closer to desirable and less feeling like a frozen tundra. In the mish mash of environmental flux, some of her buds began to foxtail. This was my first time seeing this happen; so despite the fact that it's not desirable, seeing foxtailing happen with my own buds for the first time was actually kind of cool. After the environmental woes were corrected, she stacked even more. Her buds nice and dense with a citrus fragrance complimented by some subtle skunky undertones. Before harvest I changed out her reservoir and gave her a 4 day flush along with 48 hours of darkness. When I opened the tent on harvest day I was punched in the face with a beautiful fragrance of mandarin that instantly lifted the corners of my mouth into a sweet smile of satisfaction. I cut her down and hung her to dry in my climate controlled closet holding a perfect 69.8°F and 55% RH. Six days later her buds were ready for the jars. Her dry buds gave me 8.8oz/250g of quality bud and an additional 2.9oz/82g of popcorn buds. Just being in jars for 24 hours has REALLY brought out even a stronger citrus aroma that is just a true pleasure to take in. Will update with more after the cure and first smoke experience. ✌️💜🌱0000

1/3/20 Week 8! Minor defoliation and some canopy leveling, just trying to fit it all in a 4x4 tent. The other grow will finish in a week or so and give em a bit of room. Just Bloom nuets at avg dose until these get some room, dont really want em larger. 1/9 Ending week with a foliar feed primarily on Tara as she has grown so fast she is flirting with some def. If I dont get results from the Cal-Mag I will shift to epsom salt in a couple of days. Considering upping the ppm in lieu of adding cal-mag no signs of overfeeding at all. Defoliation tomorrow to start week 9

I started to flush the cookies gelato and Royal Bluematic 1. They look good and I can't wait anymore, they smell so good and are so sticky too. I have cut the yellow and burnt leaves. I think i will cut them soon and harvest in less than a week. The HulkBerry 2 follow 2 weeks late on the others or something like that, and my royal Bluematic 2 is still very strange, but is making quite a lot of small buds, very weak but look to be growing.

There we go, it‘s week #10 with Skunk #1 and these beautiful pictures. The EC is at 2.0 and the ph at 5.8... let’s see them still growing in the last 2 weeks. Njoy! Day 64: New pictures online! EC is going up every day just like ph. Problem today is the heat! The water in the tank has exceeded 25°C and the temperature is not going to be cooler in the next week. That is why I added Purolyt. To prevent the water in the tank from getting algae and other sh*t. 😎 Day 65: Maybe it was too much Purolyt yesterday or the plants just give away all the leafes that are not in the light. Have to check tomorrow with lights off if something went wrong. Put 10liter pure water into the tank and ph'ed down. Day 66: I know the water in the tank is too warm with 26° C. I will have to solve this problem. (I think I will use icecubes or something like that) But the flowers look pretty good. They stand the heat better than we do.(35° C outside in the city!) Day 67: Still problems with the water temperature in the tank. Put an ice pack inside to get the temp down. Won't be helping long but for a moment. Day 69: Still problems with the hot summer. Heat is up to 31,2° C but the plants seem to like it. Water temp went down to 24.4° C after refilling 10l pure water. After that I checked the EC which is at 1.86 and ph'ed down to 5.6 Planning to harvest soon, maybe in one week, what do you guys think? The white spots in the blossoms are burned blossoms that contains no thc or cbd. It looks like an albino flower to me. 😌 I can't avoid them because the tent is too low.

Week 8 there hasn’t been any drastic changes for either of the girls. Girl #1 is looking better and better each day. Girl #2 is just being as stubborn as can be. Girl #2 still hasn’t showed any signs of flowering. I’m gonna continue to be patient with her she’s a very late bloomer. I can’t believe she’s been in veg for 8 weeks.I know some of you expert growers have experienced a long veg similar to my experience.Not sure if it’s good or bad luck just yet being my first run of autos. I have to admit. When i saw this week coming to The end and girl #2 wasn’t showing signs of flowering, I got down face to face with her quietly whispering (You better flower soon or it’s time for the trash can 😂😂) lol 😆 I had a weak moment was very frustrated. I thank all of you that have shared your information cause without it I would have been panicking. I’m gonna be patient and let the plant tell me when she’s ready. Everything has been running smoothly. I have given both girls light bloom nutrients. I have learned so much and it has been a pleasure watching the magic happen. Thank all of those who have viewed my diary. Thank you again for your support.

This week all the plants started to take off in flower. Buds swelling up by the day. Stopped feeding flower burst and added Pk9-18 and advanced meta boost to aid with flowering. Smell has started to increase but not to potent as of yet. EC also increased to 1.6 for increased demand in flower. Also stopped spraying IPM this week as it don't want it to effect the bud smell or taste come harvest.

June 12, 2020 Week 7 I added some manure to all the pots. 2 of the plants aren’t growing much so Im leaving them to grow, and see what happens. Plants were a bit too wet from previous thunderstorms, now waiting for them to dry out so I can try and bring their ph down. Thank you and happy grow🌱 June 14, 2020 Plants started to dry out so we added ph down water and authentik Veg nutrients 4-3-2 by nutri+. Ph’s mix equivalence was around 5.8 So we brought the ph up to +/- 6.4 For ph Up we used sodium bicarbonate(baking soda). And used 1 litre of water per pot. Thanks happy grow!!!
