Hey hey everybody! I hope you all had a fantastic week and I am excited to be back for our latest update which marks the end of week 15 and the beginning of week 16! Now I don’t know if it’s just me or the beginning of the year can be explained off as Mercury being in retrograde (I’m not saying it is, that’s more my wife’s deal- I wouldn’t know either way) but things have been absolutely nuts over here and I needed a little something good to help level out the crazy… I have some awesome things in the mail (still rolling in from the spending spree I went on) but truth be told we were between deliveries, and I needed instant gratification- soo I may have accidentally brushed up against the timer and flipped to flower ( and by accidentally brushed up against, of course I mean I fully intentionally programmed the time to flip to flower in a moment of weakness…🤷‍♂️🏻) Am I sorry? No… will it slightly kill me from an aspect of my struggle with occasional OCD? Oh yes…. Ohhhh yesssss…. That little corner is/was driving me nuts but I figured it was time to just let it do it’s thing- honestly once I noticed I picked a pot that was too small for what I was trying to do, I should have just there in the towel, flipped and taken it as a learning lesson for next time…. Buuuuut alas, I am stubborn and that is NOT how that went down… I’m still excited for what’s to come, we should have some (hopefully) pretty impressive things developing soon so I am stoked! That being said however, I have also had some unimpressive things happen, for instance- yesterday, I go in to feed the girls and my light is off! I (obviously) must have screwed something up when I went to change the light schedule- specifically, due to the fact that there are 9 or 10 possible lighting schedules you can set, I think I had correctly set the on/off times BUUUUUT I think after I had switched to the next programmed on/off times which were incorrect- I noticed when I saw that the lights were off, they should have been on for another three hours (give or take) - so I immediately started messing with the timer and turned the lights back on and continued to tend to those lovely ladies. I then went and made dinner- after, I just had this feeling that I should check on the tent, just in case- and sure enough, an hour after the lights were supposed to be turned off, there they were, on like grey poupon (I apologize I haven’t heard that in like a decade or more, had to

Week full of stretch! Good day lovely people ✌️ Ms Purple spend the week reaching for the stars. We are now entering the bulking phase of our journey and our lady is smelling wonderful ( some banana with a hint of lemon) love it ❤️ She is drinking more, and I’m making sure to water to full full saturation when about 3 cm of my top soil gets dry. Can’t wait for the coming weeks. Let’s go

We cleaned bare the undersides of all plants (bottom 1/3) in preparation for flower..right or wrong we always start introducing mild bloom nutrients about a week before flower (I'd love to hear some opinions on this practice)..I think we'll start flower in week 8 but ultimately I'm going by the length of new growth, I'd like the new tops to be kinda long after their flowering stretch..thanks for reading if you made it this far and happy harvests everyone!!! ❤️💡🌱😽💨 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_ 12/22/21 😽💨 decided to flip anyway lol, being a 10+week strain I worry about our current supply running dangerously low in that time.. these should look great after their stretch 👌 ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~

It was easy to harvest she was very small jut cut it quickly without stalks the wet weight is 17 g of the buds. Smell is like spicy lemonish smell. This site has changed can not update and edit the comment section. The smoke is nice it is kind of relax and strong high. Not the best but not even bad. I like it.

Week 3: Vegetative Stage – Training, Defoliation, and Entering Full Flower The Apricot Autos have really taken off this week. I’ve been doing a little defoliation here and there, but over the course of training and tucking, I sometimes get a little heavy-handed and manage to break the odd leaf. Even with these occasional slips (you can see it in the pics), the plants are still shaping up nicely and getting huge, though not as much as my previous grow, which was also Fast Buds autos. By the end of the week, the plants have started to noticeably stretch, which I’m happy about since it makes them easier to train. At this stage, I like to train using mental pegs, gardening wire, and leaf tucking. I rarely remove any leaves until I have a clearer idea of the plant’s final shape, which did evolve quickly this week, prompting me to take action. On day 27, one of the plants is entering full flower, while the one with the misshapen leaf is a couple of days behind. The difference between the two is becoming less noticeable, although one is still bigger. Current Setup: Medium: 70/30 coco/perlite mix with Great White Mycorrhizae added during transplant Lights: DLI set to 22 Nutrients: Big Plant Science (introduced midweek) Despite breaking a leaf or two during training, both plants are progressing well, with flowering now fully underway.

Flowering Day 28 So far, everything looks good, and the buds are stacking well. Today was hopefully the last time I had to supercrop. In a few days, they'll be getting compost tea again.

51 Days in flower have passed. This week i got myself an upgrade, new light the FC-E3000 and a 120x60 grow tent so i can grow some bigger and better medicine. I love the specs on the light, the price was right and so i have high expectations from looking at other peoples reviews of the light. We will see if im able to hit the jackpot with this! 🤠 The girls are looking great! Cheese left, Gorilla Girl right. the pictures and videos are self explanatory, its looking awesome!!! If you ever wondered where i stashed the Runtz and Bruce Banner; i took them out of the grow tent and just put them in the corner of my house without light only surviving off the light in the shadow from the sun, they have been neglected for a while but they still went on super strong, they started flowering 3 weeks ago so i had to put them into reveg so they look a little odd now but its all good. it was either that or i would have to throw them in the trash, and im not gonna waste some nice strains like that. Im impressed how they have survived with almost no light and water. ---1st time growing with FLO - Florian Living Organics.--- They claim that there is no need to pH when watering and that their living fertilizer is the only thing that i will need throughout the whole grow so i only need to mix with soil and just water with plain water. If this stuff works then it can simplify my future grows ALOT! Happy growing. 😎

Ai Gude Growmies es wird langsam richtig frostig auf den Buds❄️🌌 Seit Blüte Tag 50 überschritten wurde sehe ich täglich wie die Buds Immer mehr Trichome produzieren und Gewicht!❄️❄️❄️ Mimosa die wie beim vorherigen Grow etwas länger brauchen wird nur dieser Klon entwickelt wahrscheinlich wegen Phosphor Mangel zu diesen bunten Spektakel. Aber die Mutter Pflanze wo jetzt davor in die Blüte kam war schon ziemlich groß und musste diesen Klon im aktuellen grow auch Reveggen und trotzdem hat er Größere und schönere Buds entwickelt! Im bekannten Kreis sagen sie auch man meint es wären 2 verschiedene Strains und keine Klone. Habe die White Widow XXL ordentlich entlaubt da ich etwas nachlässig war haben sich an 3 stellen Mehltau niedergelassen. Ich komme nie über 45% LF Nachts eher so 38-42% im Durchschnitt ,Tags über sogar 30-35% LF. Mehltau infiziert waren sie alle leider aber hatte ihn erfolgreich behandelt jetzt am Ende der Blüte entferne ich die Blätter und tupfe sie vorher mit bio Mehltau EX ab. AK47 Hatte auch vorbeugend einen kahl schlag unten rum. Ein Klon aus Feminisierten Samen der sich zuerst absolutes Bastard Cannabis war entwickelte sich zu einem stämigen kompakten Indica zwerg mit schlechten Blüten/Blatt Verhältnis dafür extrem starken oldshool Skunk Duft mit Chemie,Erde und nassen Hund. Die Super Lemon Haze sollte eigentlich eine neue Mutter Pflanze werden aber wurde zu spät geschnitten die hätte ich eher austauschen. Weil man erkennt wenn die Bilder vom Start sieht das die nur 1 bis 3 finger Blätter hatte bzw nur ganz wenige mit mit mal 5 und die Buds sind diesmal auch nicht so Groß und fluffig wie davor sondern sehr kompakt und erinnert mehr an Indica von der Blüten Struktur und Festigkeit. Der Geruch ist auch mehr in Richtung Chemie/Katzenpisse was ich sehr begrüße. Nach ndl und 1 led grow und jetzt der 3 mit den selben Genetiken kann ich jetzt schon sagen dass ich Super Lemon Haze und Ak47 erstmal lange Zeit nicht mehr growen. Ich weiß nicht ob es Einbildung ist oder wirklich so das ich konstant zu jeden Durchgang bessere Ergebnisse bekam aber die Pflanzen von Serious Seeds und Green House Seeds nicht so darauf ansprach wie die Genetiken von Barney's Farm. Grade die White Widow XXL hat mich wirklich überrascht ich war anfangs enttäuscht weil die Pflanze fast wie eine reine sativa wächst in der vegi Phase die ohne toppen safe über 150cm geworden. Wenn man die mit der SLH vergleichen will habe beide lange Internodien Abstände und kaum Blätter wuchs bzw Super Blüte/Blatt Verhältnis! Nur an den Blüten der WW die extrem Kompakt und Schwer werden zeigt sich der angebliche 75% Indica Anteil mit bis zu 26% THC. Das XXL am ende hat sich der strain verdient!!! Was in den 90er WW und AK47 waren und in den 2000er Die SLH als hype Strains hat es Barneys farm geschafft für mich die WW so zu updaten Dass sie sich Aroma und Geschmack so wie Wirkung wie damals Riecht, schmeckt und kickt. Konnte mehrfach bei Bekannten das Apotheken White Widow unterschiedlicher Preise und Herkunft probieren und je nach Qualität war es OK für den Preis. Mr nice guy seeds Black Widow oder die ww Inbreed line von GHS ist auch absolut empfehlenswert wer den Hype von damals nachvollziehen möchte. Die WW von Barney's Farm will ich mit GMO mal "ersetzen" oder aus Regulären Samen Mutter Pflanzen selektieren. Die Mimosa Evo war was die Genetik angeht es neuste im Zelt und habe vorher lange recherchiert weil mir die ganzen neuen Candy Ice Dessert sweet tutti frutti breath nicht so zusagen aber ich eine Sorte wollte die bis zu30%THC erreichen kann und mit Farbe:D Mich hat damals schon Tangerine Dream absolut positiv überrascht mit Süßen Mandarine am anfang und g13 und Nevilles A5 Haze im abgang und sehr stark war die zu der Zeit. Mimosa Evo riecht hauptsächlich fruchtig nach Orange, Zitrone und Waldbeeren beim Rauchen kommt PP durch und Erde,Diesel gasig. In diesem Grow verwende ich das erste mal CANNA Terra Professional Plus Erde und Hydrokugel im Topf Boden. So wie CANNAZYM und CANNA Calmag Agent. Man sieht und riecht den Unterschied schon zum vorherigen Grow mit BioBizz All Mix Erde und BB Calmag. Ich möchte die Erde von Canna wiederverwen weshalb ich mir CANNAZYM holte. Bin vorsichtig bei Zusätze Dünger wie z.b Wurzel Stimmulator hatte bis her nie Probleme im wurzel Bereich. MONO Präparate sind absolut brauchbar wenn man gezielt Mangel Erscheinungen bekämpfen will. Habe vor 21 angefangen zu Growen mal größer mal kleiner aber konstant mit kleinen Pausen seitdem dünge ich Mineralisch mit CANNA und Guano. Organisch Düngen werde ich allein deswegen schon testen wegen Geschmack und Aroma. Denke bis spätestens 22.5 sind alle rdy und Mein Grow report ist dann abgeschlossen 😍🌈🌌 *Update * muss die Leistung der Lampe drosseln sie wird einfach zu warm aber bei fast 26C° tagsüber kann ich schwer die heiße Luft austauschen obwohl die abluft in einen anderen Raum geleitet wird.

Que pasa familia, esta semana hemos lavado las raíces de un ejemplar, el otro ejemplar se le sigue echando nutrientes. Ph controlado, intentaremos aguantar esa planta alguna semana más, las otra por lo menos aún le quedan un par de semanas. Ph controlado bajamos humedad a 35% y la temperatura la mantenemos por debajo de 27. Estas flores están cogiendo unas tonalidades increíbles, y empieza a desprender unos aromas brutales como a ácido.

At the beginning of the second week, one of them started to completely freak out and mutated with all the impossible possible symptoms on the leaf pattern. I think maybe the soil life, i.e. the microbiome, was still too busy in the process of conversion and metabolism. And experience has shown that the Trichoderma bacteria usually take different amounts of time to symbiotize with the seedling and substrate. Also Myccorhiza.

Same regime i did add rose bloom for a 1 time feed. Dug a inch or so around the root and 1 inch or so hole by the pots edge. Recovered with soil then watered. I did not like the effects tho. It made a bunch of leaves change colors like they had p and k deficiencies. Stalks and viens got red but went back to normal after another watering with just 6.3 ph water

My baby is turning into a lady. She really loved getting a larger pot. As I plan to veg her for about 8-9 weeks more, I imagine she will eventually end up in a 30L pot. Not much more to say, she seems to enjoy life in the green house so far.

Check these forming buds out this week on BMR. These look like some of the biggest buds I will have ever grown. Not a ton of smell yet, what terpenes are there seem a bit woody with an underlying sweetness. Continuing with the sugar sources for the microbial life, the plants aren't showing any signs of deficiency so I'm just letting them ride at this point. Let's keep swelling!
