5 day since switching to 12/12 did a bit of defoliation tonight .both plants are already feeling quite sticky and there is not a pistol insight yet. The cyco additives definitely make a huge difference to the nuggets at the end

Couple of pics of the buds before i cut her down added and a little video, will come back and update weights and strain reviews once dried and cured. All strains grew easy enough and didnt give me any problems from start to finish, smells lovely in my tent really excited to try them once they are ready. Thanks to everyone who has followed liked and commented along the way onto the next now. Dos si dos auto ( Another new release from Barneys) and amnesia haze next up so be sure to keep an eye out for them diarys thanks again and see you all soon when i update my reviews and add more pics of the final cured buds 👍✌️ ** ALL RATINGS ARE TEMPORARY UNTIL I CAN TEST AND GIVE MY OWN REVIEW** Thank you to Barneys Farm for providing me with these new 2020 strains to run, much appreciated i hope you enjoyed the journey and my diary over the past 15 weeks see you very shortly with my next run ✌️👍

All g .

Top with new soil and recharged

Day 77 , Power at 90% and lamp distance still at 45cm. She’s getting denser every day, and the buds are looking really nice. I’ve probably got another 2–3 weeks to go, so I’ll be about two weeks late on the content, but that’s fine. The plant is coming along beautifully and should turn into some really good smoke😜👊

It has been another amazing week of the plants growing. I have been watching as the Fruity Freak leaves become progressively more fern-like, and ornamental as a result! Based on my Banizzle grows, I knew I needed to understand plant nutrients in a more meaningful way if I wanted these plants to thrive. So, I decided to get a soil test (see Ref. 1 below on how to perform a test) to understand what nutrients my plants needed. The report I received advised that I needed to add 200 lbs/acre of nitrogen, 150 lbs/acre of phosphorus, and 190 lbs/acre of potassium (see picture labeled Pic.1 (FYI you can't see these images unless you login to growdiaries)). I then researched what to do with my results (Ref. 2 helped), and I figured out that my nutrient needs of 200-150-190 fall close to a 2-1-2 ratio. I then looked at different types of organic fertilizers (see Ref. 3 and Ref. 4) and considered that I already had a 3-10-5 fertilizer (Vermibloom) on hand. I discovered Dr Earth’s Alfalfa Meal is 2-1-2 and includes beneficial bacteria and mycorrhizae (to promote healthy plant growth and disease resistance). However, I knew I would be low on nitrogen if I only used those two fertilizers. Therefore, I decided to buy some blood meal (12-0-0). I also liked that blood meal is more fast acting while the other two are more moderate. I hunted around for a solid fertilizer calculator and found an amazing tool from the University of Georgia Extension (Ref. 5). I entered all three fertilizers into the calculator, and it kicked out the exact amount of each fertilizer I needed to apply to 1 square foot (see Pic. 2). As I am using 10-gallon fabric pots (that can hold 1.5 cubic feet, but I put stone on the bottom and there’s space left at the top) I decided to use the one square foot application rate as I can always add more later, but I can’t take it away. Not only did I want to understand the nutrients I needed, but I also wanted to understand the structure of the soil (as it was not included in my test results). North Dakota State University has a nice page that discusses this (Ref. 6), and I performed a soil ribbon test (see Video 1) based on this information. I determined my soil to be medium textured (which is great), but I have seen occasional water pooling on the surface, suggesting that it may be more of a medium-fine. This means adding peat moss, coco coir, or other amendments might improve drainage (and plant hydration) and allow for roots to grow more easily. In the long run, I plan to use compost to enhance the soil structure and nutrients. I filled the bottom of my 10-gallon fabric pots with a ½” of pea stone to allow for drainage (Pic. 3). I then partially filled two 5-gallon buckets with topsoil from near where I will plant (but not in an area the roots will reach). I used a digital scale to measure the amount of fertilizers recommended by the calculator (Pic. 4, 5, and 6) and added it to one of the 5-gallon buckets (see Pic. 7). I mixed the fertilizers into the soil as evenly as possible (Pic. 8 and 9). I then poured a two-inch layer of non-fertilized soil, then peat moss, and then fertilized soil (in a roughly 2:1:1 ratio) and blended them together. I repeated this until the pot was full (getting additional soil as needed), and then I repeated the process for the other three pots. I set the filled fabric pots in my garage (Pic. 10) for two days to allow any upset bugs to flee into my garage instead of my house. I then moved the pots (wrapping them in a contractor garbage bag to prevent making a mess) into the room with the grow light. I placed a board on top of the fabric pots to insulate the plants (in their smaller pots) from the cold soil (Pic. 11). Once the soil in the fabric pots reaches room temperature, I will transplant. (Ref. 1) This video shows the method I used to take a soil sample. I didn’t have a field to test, so I took four samples from the area where I will eventually plant outdoors and blended them together. I then mailed my soil sample off to the lab, and about a week later, I received an email with a PDF of my results (included with my pictures this week). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9AwxmFxBwg&t=8s (Ref. 2) This video from the University of Minnesota Extension (many universities have agriculture extensions that can assist you with soil testing and growing information for your area) discusses what to do with your soil testing results: https://youtu.be/HYrkcfE62Pg (Ref. 3) This is a nice article that discusses organic fertilizer solutions: https://www.grow-it-organically.com/npk-fertilizer.html (Ref. 4) This article lists the NPK values of many organic fertilizer solutions: https://www.epicgardening.com/organic-fertilizers/ (Ref. 5) Many websites tout a fertilizer calculator…but this one is hands down the best I have found. If you scroll down to the bottom, you can enter any fertilizer type you want (and the cost, if you want). It will give you the exact blend of multiple fertilizers to solve your nutrient deficiencies (I included a snapshot of the solution I used in my pictures). https://aesl.ces.uga.edu/soil/fertcalc/ (Ref. 6) This is an excellent article that discusses how to evaluate your soil: https://www.ndsu.edu/agriculture/extension/publications/evaluating-preparing-and-amending-lawn-and-garden-soil

Very happy thought I'd ruined the buds with a homemade spider mite spray. Brought contaminated top up soil into the grow room without sterilising, lesson learned. Spray worked perfectly though and washes off fine with no bad residue or taste. My spray bottle is going to forever smell like garlic I think 🙈😂

Terminamos nuestra quinta semana pasando a floración nuestras fotodependientes 🍀💫 empieza la magia

She is the baby of all my plants. When she’s hungry she will out of nowhere have her leaves look down. As soon as she’s fed, in 10 minutes she’s back to normal. Great smell. Good tops, great bud production at the bottom. Bottom wants to follower purple so badly but plant doesn’t want to yet

Man merkt aufjedenfall das Sie eine woche Vorsprung hat, im Gegenzug zu ihren Mitbewohnerinnen. Schöne dunkle grüne Blätter... an manchen Stellen aber sieht es so aus, als würde ein Problem sein. So hellere stellen an den Blatträndern. Gerne mal in die Kommentare schreiben was ihr denkt.

Molasses is still the main ingredient of the fertilizers I feeding them. I just have only a small amount of the "ready" Advanced Nutrients Bloom fertilizer. I will still go on Mycoterra Kraken, Earthworm juice and Molasses. And of course my handmade fertilizer - it stinks like an 3-days-old cup of very strong green tea - this comes from the wakame seaweed ! Extra tip: The smell of wakame is much stronger than the cannabis smell! So you don't need any carbon filters etc. 😆😋 So the molasses does: I once done the water with molasses mix and leaved it for 2 days - it began to ferment! The smell of this remembers me of beer making process with a little bit of the very fresh smell of a essential oil from green carrot tops. Yes, I know - these descriptions are the bomb, haha! Reduced the temperature on my thermostat gear: from 32 to 26'C to see what happens - the reduction should help improve the flowering. As you can see some of the leaves are broken - caused accidentally by watering the plant! I am trying to do my best on this small area 😅

Nice looking plant structure is great buds are frosty has a cream smell

👉The plant finally has its own space. I moved it into the center of the tent and have rotated it to get a closer look at things. I have felt like bad things may be lurking on the far side which I had no access to. Fortunately everything looks good. I did find a couple of seeds forming in the tips of a couple of colas. Since then I have been scouring the plant looking for hermies. I haven't found any, but is a large bush and the hermie could be small. Its also possible that I carried some pollen in from outdoors. While all the farmland around me is cows, the strong prevailing winds could possibly have carried a few grains of pollen and those ended up on my clothes. I didn't see any evidence of the buds filling up with seeds, just the 3-4 with the seeds forming right on the tip. I will know for sure when I do the harvest. 👉I may have stuck with the week 8 mix a week too long, so I moved to week 9 for one batch (2.5gallons) then week 10one the next, I switched to week 11 (Ripen) at the end of the week. The plant had lots of crispy shitty looking fingers in the areas at the top of the canopy and in the strongest parts of the lights. I moved the lights up to 26". I have been trimming out the dead crispy leaves and and seeing more of a normal 'fade' pattern now on leaves all around the plant. I have been trimming off those that have faded for the most part. There are still lots of leaves left. The trichomes are seemingly mostly cloudy, I have not seen any amber. The lower areas have mostly clear trichomes. The buds are not 'normal' in structure. They started out normal sized calixs with normal structure buds, but they stopped 'plumping' and most of the calixs became freakishly large. This is very reminiscent of my Gorilla Glue form last year. The buds seemed to be in a state of suspended animation with no new calix's and all pistols red. When I shifted to the week 9 and then 10 mix, some fox-tailing started and some smallish calixs formed. The temps in the tent have been mid 60's at night and some days in the low 70s. This has given some of the colas a little bit of purple color. The plant is frosty as can be with frost extending well out onto even the largest sugar leaves. The smell is generic funky stank, but with a nice pleasant sweet note. The aroma is very strong and when the breezes are moderate to mild the sweet funky stank can be enjoyed outside my house as well (vented directly outside with no filter). 👉I will continue with the ripen mix of solution till harvest day. I will be monitoring the Trichome status looking for mostly cloudy with very few clears. I took a couple of small larf branches two weeks ago and let them dry, did not 'cure' it. Sticky as hell, and when I toked it it gave a nice buzz that was uppy. It wasn't 'intense' like finished cured buds are, but it was stronger than any larf Ive toked before. Larf is usually sort of an 'empty' high for me and hardly worth the effort of lighting it up, this was good enough to give a nice long lasting pleasant buzz. I cant wait to see what the good big buds will be like!

Marge is literally romping away now . She looks healthy n very bushy . Have high hopes for this lil beauty

Great climate, ideal. After careful consideration, valued the considerable size of the plants, the flowering stage and the yellowing of the bottom canopy , I decided to feed one last time with veg nutes at half dose. This will be followed by 2 waterings of water only and then a boost of flowering nutrients. I love this strain. She's blooming very well, quickly just like she was growing indoor. For a couple of days it has been emitting an extraordinary citron/diesel smell and now becomes to be sticky. Expected harvest time: 3rd/4th week of September. Thanks for following, I ❤️ you

Auto Maxi Gom is still flowering, and looking kinda crappy. I have had this happen once before like this. I dunno if it is genetic or something I did. I plan to finish her out, and use flower for infusing.
