Seed was put in a glass of water on the 2nd of January 20:00 (8PM). Around 15h later it sunk to the bottom and I transferred it to a wet paper towel inside a zip. Around 51h later (so ~36h inside zip) the seed had not yet opened. I am a little worried, but at the same time not because I've looked up what the pro's say and some of them don't even look at the seed until after the seed has spent at least 48h inside the paper towel. I will be patient and wait for the seed to open. After the seed has opened I will be even more patient and let the root grow for a bit. I have grown 2 of these plants in my lifetime and first time was really good, second time was very bad, and the second time I planted it when the root was ~1mm long. I will not rush things this time. I will also be careful to not let the root grow too long. If I'll have it my way, then I'll be planting this baby tomorrow evening, so in a bit less than 24h from now. If I have to reschedule then it will probably be planted on the 6th of January. Worst case scenario: We have to restart with a new seed. Bless you. Update 5 Jan 2022 17:29 (05:29 PM): We have a root! The seed has opened ever so slightly and the root has grown more and more during today. I want the root to grow a tiny bit longer before I plant it. I will take another look before bedtime. Update 5 Jan 2022 20:43 (08:43 PM): Root has not grown much since the last picture, will plant tomorrow. Update 6 Jan 2022 10:05 (10:05 AM): Will plant later. Root is too short. Update 6 Jan 2022 15:00 (03:00 PM): Root is still shorter than I had in mind but my patience has ran out and I think it is still a fine length for the seed to do really good. I also have very good soil for her with claimed great amount of nutrients for seedlings. When it gets large enough I will transplant her to a 11L pot. The 11L pot has been filled with more than 11L soil. Probably around 15L. By the way, the plant has a name, her name is "Satan" but is referred to as a "she". Update 12 Jan 2022 18:00 (06:00 PM): We have a sprout! I saw the sprout some hours ago. I am sure that I planted the seed quite perfectly in the middle. However, the sprout happened very much to the side. I suspect that there was something in the soil that might blocked the sprout. So far it looks like we planted Satan on the 6th of January and we got a sprout on the 12th. I will consider Satan to be in germination stage until it grows a little more. Then I will treat it like she's in the vegetative phase. ----------------------------- SUMMARY: Day 1-21 in Satans life has been so wonderful. Not a minute goes by without me feeling euphoric about her. Every day when I wake up I go to the grow-room and tell her good morning. I hold her largest leaf between my thumb and index-fingers to hold leaf (hold hand) and we just hold leaf together for a few seconds while I admire her beauty. She is so absolutely gorgeous and kind and she is also very happy with her environment. I already have another plant in another grow-room which also is a Northern Lights and I have kept a diary of her as well, just not on growdiaries.com (everything is kept in a Word-document). This other plant is called Kim, named after Kim Jong-Un. Kim and her diary is going to be utilized as a "roadmap" for Satan, so I should know what to expect and when to expect it. I also did a few mistakes with Kim, such as water too much or let her grow with way too much nitrogen in the air. Satan will instead be the best grow I have ever done - hopefully. I thank you all for reading and joining me on this adventure. Kim and Satan says hello!

👻👻👻 Reminder : 👻👻👻 So, I created the diary the 15th of september, I wrotte every previous informations on paper then on a word sheet. I reallized that I got everything to create a diary here, so I did it. I should maybe try to end this first grow without buying any fertilizer and keep going with my home made receips (taken from several sources and reading). I think I will do some fun experiments on a following diary. It is well known, dwarves don't run fast, so next batch will be 3 quick one from royal queen seeds, with smart pot and coco ideas i had. It will be fun an probably in 3-4 weeks (I plane to harvest my dwarves a little bit later around week 11, but I don't know, I have to check trichomes, they will give me the answer.)🙌💩So from week (8) we are in *LIVE* mode for this diary. Hello elves (you are the elves, you reading me). Smiles are allowed (this is unfair you smoke your plants so you have a strong adventage) while reading. Orcs are the pests and desease attacking the dwarves (the 3 plants)👻👻👻 👉 I've cut every branches, it was an amazing experience : My dwarves killed the orcs, they survived and escape from this AMAZING journey. They where really impossible to kill. They suffered from : Overwatering, over defoliation, nutrients burn, probably root rot, to much heat (more than 30 degree for some days), a too small pot... And they smell like : 😅😇😇😇 a wounderfull smell. I did all the "noob" mistakes basically but I learned so much. I started to feed them with home made nutrients and ended to use biobizz really at the end. I don't know what was the best for those dwarves but they made it. I will update this diary with a video and will give in 1-2 weeks the weight dry, I am really curious about it, I left really no branches, they are like ready to be in a jar. So: 👉 The famous 3/3 with amazing colors gave me : 38 gr. wet 👉 The famous 2/3 gave me : 34 gr. wet 👉 The famous 1/3 gave me : 30-31 gr. wet The harvest seems not amazing, I don't know how much weight I may loose by drying (I kept really only the heads). For a first grow, I am happy, because I simply made it. I know that it is now a growing experience, like those wounderfull amazing plants. And I learned a lot. Allready excited to launch a second harvest. A matter of time actually. It was fast, joyfull, stressfull, great to do it. SUMMARY : 😮 Why this diary name ? 😮 👉 Because when I descovered growdiaries.com 3-4 weeks before harvesting I was completly sure to fail and that my dwarves were gona die. 😁 😮 Is it the first time you have a kind of relationship with dwarves or plants like this ? 😮 👉 Hell yeah... I am totally a casual smoker and I never did this in my life before. I have to say that I started to have like a real relationship with those 3 dwarves, they start to miss me ( I just cuted them like 2-3 hours ago). 😞😢 😮 Did you enjoy to do that ? 😮 👉 Well... It will be definitly hard to don't do it again. Hopefully when seeds arrived at my home, they where not alone, 3 quick one are waiting to have a funz experience with me. The trick what started to be a small investment turned into buying more and more stuff (ph and ec meter etc...) So I want to use them more 😲😘😍 😮 Are you high right now ? 😮 👉 Absolutly not, I haven't smoke any weed for about 3-4 months maybe and I don't drink, I mean, I am naturally like this. 😕 😮 What about the elves ? 😮 👉 You mean the readers of this website who followed, liked, help me a lot with A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF GOOD ADVICES ? I love them ♥️☺️♥️ Thank to all the readers, growers, people taking care of this website and not giving any infos to the police, breeders for giving us the opportunity to do this, light crafters for giving us sun in a tent, tent builders, special potions crafters (who create amazing nutrients) specially those dedicated to the natural 100% products... I mean thank you to all elves. ♥️

Que pasa familia, vamos con la cosecha de estas Lemonpaya de FastBuds. Por dónde empiezo, fue una variedad que me resultó complicada cultivar y a nada que alimentada lo marcaba las flores son bien compactas y van llenas de resina, tienen tonos verdes bonitos, y tiene unos aromas afrutados bastante marcados con toques citricos. Es muy complicada a mi parecer, es de ciclo de 2 meses y medio, pero bien agradecida aún así. Hasta aquí todo, Buenos humos 💨💨💨

Leider sind die letzten Wochen nicht sauber geführt worden auf dieser Seite da ich die Plattform aufgrund der ständigen Upload und Verbindungsprobleme etwas aus den Augen verloren habe. Allen Ladys geht es soweit ganz gut 2 Blühen schon fröhlich vor sich her und gehen vermutlich in die Endphase über während die andere langsam anfängt sich in die höhe zu Skretchen. Lampe: Mars Hydro FC evo 1500 / China LED mit angeblichen 700W ( Vermutlich eher um die 100-150 ) Abluft hinzugefügt da die Luftfeuchtigkeit die letzten Wochen extrem hoch wahren und die Ladys es nicht so gut vertragen haben. Gedüngt wurde das erste mal jetzt am 13.05.24 mit BioBizz Bloom / Grow / Top Max PPFD: Zwischen 950 und 1000 DLI: 60 Ich werde die fehlenden Wochen noch editieren Bilder etc. habe ich alles noch.

Una semana mas me quedo sorprendido de lo rapido que ha vuelto a ser una selva...🤣 Tube que doblar la mas alta de la mesa A porque tocaba el foco, se recupera bien, pero no entiendo que a dia de hoy sigan creciendo en altura, porque y es demasiado i me quedo sin espacio. He incrementado el riego de tres fases y de 3’ a 5’ para ver si la misma velocidad ee crecimento lo hace en floración.

Song of the week : ------- Day 43 - The 3 ladies are doing good under the neon and I can see the first pistils on each one. I also removed the 2 first nodes of each of them to have more energy for the upper nodes and prevent popcorn buds. The spaces between the nodes is pretty huge because of the light penetration : not very deep with this kind of lights. I was supposed to do an outdoor grow like I always do but a friend give me a 150w Hps kit only use one time so I'll maybe give it a try but just for 6 hours a day ( 12h out 6h in) to have a full 18h schedule and see the differences -------- Day 44 - I made a short video to show you the girls in they 60x60cm tent with they turbo neon and no airflow (And a white fly invasion ). The roots system looks strong and the roots you can see on video are not thin, I put it on the last Mr.B's feeding and the multiple transplants I did before the final pot 👉 Myth Buster : Autos can be transplant multiple time so no need to put them straight in their final pot if you now how to handle a transplant without breaking the roots 👍😁 ------- Day 47 - 22.11 - Today they received 1/1.5L of Mega Crop at 1.5Ec to boost them a bit and next week they will be outside during 12h then inside during 6h under a 150w Hps 🦎 ------- Day 48 - I put the 150w Hps inside the tent today and I hang it at 30 cm from the top of the plant which is way too high but I'll hang it lower tomorow. I also will start the indoor/outdoor switch tomorow so the Hps will only be on during 6 hours a day ✌️ I'm pretty impressed by how strong their are growing under only 110w , for a low light wattage veg it's pretty cool 😁

One of the easiest plants I've grown. Smells of marshmallows and blue candy for one pheno and the other is pure lemon cleaner. Almost no stretch in flower. Very little side branching.
