Defoliated here and there, she's stretching hard now so I'm gonna have to wait a few more weeks before I can really start stripping and defoliating her. Because I LST, topped, and then super cropped all the main branches, there's way to much branches for the available surface.

My biggest harvest yet, 385g dry oh my god. Never thought hydro could yield sp much so fast. And fastbuds genetics helping me achieve that. The strain is so potent we smoked a joint 4 people and had to put it out bwcause everyone got so stoned. Wonderful. But curing now so im looking forward to those terpz and maybe a little else you never know what surprises beholds. Hsy out!

I STARTED ON THE DIARY WAY TO EARLY. I HAD TO POP ADDITIONAL SEEDS DUE TO AN ENTIRE PACK NOT GERMINATING. AFTER THAT I EITHER BURNT OR INJURED A COUPLE SEEDS REMOVING A FEW HELMET HEADS. IM FEELING BETTER ABOUT THIS SEASON NOW THOUGH THAT THINGS ARE FINALLY IN THE RIGHT CONDITIONS. IM CONSIDERING POPPING A COUPLE MORE 10TH PLANET JUST IN CASE. WE'LL SEE. 4/20 Happy 420 and Easter to everybody! Checked the girls this morning and at noontime. It was a good idea to switch lights. I'm seeing positive growth under both the duel 1500 lumen cfl's and the 1000 watt l.e.d. with an actual draw of 105 watts. The single 150 hps couldn't go low enough without raising the temp. I may add it layer after transplant in edition to the l.e.d. the plant I had to put a straw on has perked itself up and now has 3 fingered leaves. I'll have to bury up the stem a little on a few after they fill these solo cups. I WATERED everything that was under 20 grams dry weight which was most everything. I'm seeing a dramatic difference thus far. I'm wondering if I should start a couple more 10th planet in case one doesn't make it. The kush seedlings have finally showed a little more advanced growth then the seeds popped later which makes me feel good. It will be interesting to see how these turn out. They are going to be extremely resilient high yielding potent plants that will make it to harvest early. Words have power. 4/21 The lighting switch is working out good. When the plants fill out the solos I'll put the hps back up and use both until they go to their final spits outdoors. I watered everything under the led light which is all pink/special kush. I watered a couple in the aerogarden if the were under 20 grams of dry soil weight. I may have to up the amount of water but I'll be keeping an wye out. Still wanting to pop a couple more 10th planet. I've seen the first 3 fingered leaf. Can't wait for this season. WENT BACK OVER AT 6PM AND EVERYTHING IS LOOKING GOOD. I HAVE THAT ONE PINK KUSH THAT STRETCHED AND I HAD TO PUT A STRAW ON IT IS PICK8NG UP WELL. IM JUST GOING TO HAVE TO BURU IT DEEPER WHEN I GO TO GALLON POTS. IT WAS NICE TODAY AND I GOT A LOT IF SELF CARE DOWN AND HAD SOME OTHER TROUBLES BUT SEEING MY GIRLS GROW UP MAKES ME HAPPY. IM GOING TO USE THE PAR METER AGAIN TOMORROW AND BEGIN CLEANING AND SANITIZING MY GROW AREA. I HAVE A LOT TO DO. 4/22 WATERED EVERYTHING AS IT WAS WITHIN 20 GRAMS DRY WEIGHT. Plants are improving. I'm FINALLY reaching REAL veg with a couple seedlings that have grown their first 3 finger leaves. I'm looking forward to the transplant to 1 gallon. They seem to explode after that. That and the few that stretched can be buried. Now it's time to hurry up and wait. The thing is, now that some have stretched they are growing leaves which makes it top heavy on a ciuplecdue to the elongated stem. Still looks good though. I also rotated the plants to minimize hot spots. 4/23 Things are doing well. I watered everything but two in the back of the aergarden that were still over 20-grams over dry weight and i added soil to the 10th planet cups. Not because they were stretching but just so I can weigh it with the others so I can water properly. I'll check on them later. The oldest seedlings have their first three fingered leaves. I've been shopping around for soil. I think I'll round up all my 1 gal pots and wash them as these will need a transplant in a while. I should check the ppfd again. I also need to ready my outdoor area and sanitize it. Plenty of stuff to do. May still end up popping a couple more 10th planet. Not sure. EDIT: WENT OVER THIS AFTERNOON AND LOCATED ALL MY ONE GALLON POTS (AND A COUPLE OF THOSE SLANTED ONES THAT ARE A LITTLE MORE THAN A GALLON). FPUND THE 3'S TOO BUT IM GOING INTO ONES THEN HOME BABY HOME. AT LEAST THATS THE PLAN. I EMPTIED LAST YEARS GROW BAGS AND BURNED THE LAST OF TEO CANNABIS STALKS. I STILL NEED TO DEEP CLEAN THE CAGE. I JEED TO SPRAY THE PALLETS WITH THAT PESTICIDE THAT KILLS EARWIGS (THE ONES I CANT REPLACE). I ALSO NEED TO GET ALL THE LOOSE SOIL THATS FALKEN OVER THE YEARS AND THE LEAVES OUT OF THE CAGE. LEAF BLOWER AND A RAKE WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT. I HAVE A BRUSH BURNER AND I WAS THINKING ABOUT USING IT BUT THEN REALITY SUNK IN. AT LEAST I GOT SOME WORK DONE. WASHED UP NIDE AND PUT ON HAND SANITIZER TO CHECK ON THE GIRLS. THEY LOOK GREAT TO ME. I QUICKLY SHOT TWO PICS AND BEAT FEET. I SHOULDVE NOT GONE IN AT ALL BUT THAT WAS THE POINT OF ME GOING THERE. TO CHECK IN THE GIRLS. IM SURE THEY'LL BE FINE. 4/24 Had to go back and water. I watered the two in the ag that weren't watered before. Most of the cups under the l.e.d were right on the cusp (220, 218 ect.) I watered a couple and left the others that weighed a tad more and misted the top with a spray bottle so it won't totally dry out. I'll check later but they are growing at a rapid pace now. I'll probably end up watering. I'll probably have to up the volume. I think I'm going to go get a bag of ffof to put in the house and warm up. That way I cam transplant whenever I want. I'll check around for prices. EDIT: Went to the local grow store and bought 3cf of Fox Farm Ocean Forest which will be mixed with the 2cu bag of Happy Frog I already have when I transplant into the 1 gallons pots. I got prices for all the soil so now I just need to figure out how many bags of each I need. I want to get it early so it's still there. I'll be doing my math. Went back over and and as predicted the three cups under the led were "almost" within ten grams of dry weight. They probably could've waited (212, 211, 208) but they are close to breaking the ten grams over dry limit that seems to be doing good for me. I showed my commercial buddy cause he hasn't seem them a while and I could tell he was impressed. I'll take pictures tomorrow. I cleaned the cage a little bit more. My buddy thinks going into 1 gals is the better option than going into 3's. If I have to then it would just be the bigger plants and I have a few gallon and a half ones I'll use for the bigger plants. Still debating whether to pop more seeds and pheno hunt or just go with what I've got. What I've got is looking good. I just don't want to lose any. Might be smart to start a couple extra. 4/25 WATERED EVERYTHING I think. I might think about increasing water volume of water I give at a time. I'll probably stick with whats working since I use the scale anyway. The kush under the l.e.d dries out faster than the cfl. They both are working good and I'm getting some good node development. The earlier plants are actually looking like a pot plant. I may start next week with a weak nutrient solution like ancient amber or the first fox farm one. Worked on some more of the cage. I'm ready to go! 4/26 WATERED EVERYTHING BUT THE BACK ROW OF THE AEROGARDEN WHICH WERE STILL IN RANGE. Plants are getting big. Transplant with the kush might be next week. 10th planet is doing incredible for being so young. Mk Ultra doing good as well. I thought about popping a few more and then pheno hunting but I'll probably stick with what I've got. I'm loving what I'm seeing.

Had a productive week for growth and made a few improvements. Bud development has been great this week. The buds are filling in the gaps mostly and creating nice colas. My plan is for the next 2 weeks to feed AN Overdrive. Then flush for 2 weeks i think. She is very sticky and has a sweet smell of candy grape. Still not a blast of smell when i open the tent but smelling her close she's sweet :D I re tied all the outside colas to make them have even spacing again. The red poles were in need of some better reflection so i foil taped them. The sealed box for my carbon filter was made when i was using the cfl. The way i needed to hang the light meant the outlet from the sealed box into the tent could only be 4 inches in diameter. With the Cob Led, it's attached on the side poles, so decided to max out the outlet. It is the full 6inches and cooling is more efficient now. (Maybe i should try origarmi) The black clip on fan was touching the tent so not drawing air as well. Also made an annoying vibration if touching the tent wall. I used the extender i had on the side vertically and mounted it horizontaly. Has opened the tent out a bit and have free space behind the fan. Have add photos of all improvements. Checked on the outdoor grow and is looking good. Did improvements on it last week by adding a 'gate'. Had spotted deer when visiting previously so didn't want to take any chances. Attached photos from visit yesterday. Video is from week before when i did the gate and surround supports. Left plant Glue Gelato Auto is my friends. It's the same age as my Wed Cake but grown outdoors it's whole life. Right plant is Purple Punch auto which is mine. 4 weeks younger than my Wed Cake and Glue Gelato but started indoors and then planted outdoors. This spot was only for 1 plant originally but after the situation from the other spot we had to take the GG there. Thanks for checking my diary See you next week and happy growing

30.12.2026 – BT58 Bei allen drei Pflanzen wurde – mit Ausnahme der Apples & Oranges – nur noch pH-korrigiertes Wasser mit Cal/Mag gegeben. Die Apples & Oranges erhielt die letzten drei Gießgänge ausschließlich Wasser und wurde nun etwa eine Woche lang nicht mehr gegossen, bis zur Ernte. Des Weiteren war dies der letzte Gießgang in der Blütewoche mit Cal/Mag. Für die restlichen zwei Pflanzen gibt es nun ebenfalls nur noch Wasser, um im Drain einen EC-Wert von 1,0 zu erreichen.

I raised her in a skull, but most of her life was spent in neglect. I left her outside in burning heat, then in sudden cold, dragged her indoors, then abandoned her again. She suffered thirst, darkness, and the bite of spidermites that stripped her leaves — though strangely, they spared the flowers, as if something in her bloom commanded a grim respect. When her time came, I did not cut her. Growing is usually a preparation for harvest — you nurture only to take, always before death arrives on its own. I chose the opposite. I carried her down into the cellar for her final weeks, set her skull in the stone-lit dark, and simply let her decline. There she stood, a crown of fading flowers above hollow bone, turning slowly from bloom to ruin. I left her to wither not by accident, but as proof. To show that a grow without harvest becomes its own message: that life, denied the cut, meets death as it is, unshaped, unclaimed. And in that cellar, in her vessel of bone, she embodied what I wanted to see — beauty not ended by hand, but surrendered to shadow.

Veg36, están creciendo bastante bien, a esperar unos días para un próximo riego. Veg38, ya hay que revisar amarras y ver si hay hojas abanico tapando algún brazo, siguiente riego era en 1 o 2 días más. Veg40, se regó con EC 2.5 y pH 6.0, se cortaron un par de hojas, hay que seguir haciendo LST para lograr una altura uniforme. Veg41, algunas hojas están mostrando quemadura en la puntas por exceso de nutrientes, los siguientes riegos tendrán que ser más suaves.

UPDATE - SUNDAY I just laid on my bed in the dark and put the DGC on to listen to as I relax/snooze and I suddenly realised it is Monday and therefore I am due to update my diary, he photos and the comments. I remember now that on my last grow, comparing this weeks photos with that of last weeks makes it easier to see your bud development... I am just about to go and take some photos and feed the recharge and other goodies. They are staring to smell SOO GOOD! I was pretty worried about it not being enough light though. I was worried about it being similar to the time I flowered an auto in a 1 gal pot, under a 200w CFL (one of those comically oversized ones) It had good morphology but it didn't smell of anything at all and had no thrich's at all so wasn't much use lol. Luckily this smells a hell of a lot more and also has visible trichomes. Right im going to go take my photos....ok these are not the best photos but ill chuck some more up later this week. The plant on he right seems to be most vigorous atm and no so surprisingly this is the quick one. Royal creamatic is slower to develop slightly bu I smells so unbelievably fruity and beauiful. UPDATE - MONDAY Hi guys, back again the day after my last update as I got distracted and started taking some photos and remembered the ones I put up yesterday were shit. I was laying in bed last night thinking I am actually really glad I got the strains of genetics that I did actually and here is why. Well, I wasn't actually THAT excited about them if im completely honest, it was more of a budget decision to get this particular cultivar. I was pretty certain I wanted to try out Royal Queen Seeds and I knew I had to, and wanted to try some autoflowers for this run and saw people were getting some excellent, consistent results from a very limited budget in all the grow diaries I had researched. Now here is why i am particularly glad I went with a strain I wasn't all that pumped about. I think if I had been awaiting a strain I was really looking forward too, it would have seemed to take much longer, this way, I am only pleasantly surprised rather than disappointed. I am also going to upload a Bio-bizz schedule into my images so I can just refer to my diary rather than having to dig one out even though I have my diary open anyway. UPDATE - WEDNESDAY These babies are starting to really stink now. I cant tell if its because I vape copious amounts of weed in my flat or if I need to replace my carbon filter. I definitely need to replace my filer for my next round for sure. I will monitor it and if it gets worse with me airing out my flat more I will replace the filter, or at least replace the activated carbon within the filter. I also just opened the door check them and they have gained noticeable amounts of weight on the buds. I love It when you go in the grow for the first time in a while and you can see its grown quite a lot since your last check. I think I am going to have a browse through peoples diaries who have grown the same strains and see who has had success, then try to mimic how they finished up... The smell is unbelievable, these are two really surprisingly smelly strains. I really cant wait for the scissor hash, I think im also going to freeze all the trim down so that when iv done enough grows I can do some mixed run bubble hash as I still have the bags from last time. Ill probably just freeze it until iv competed my next, bigger 60cmx120cm grow with 3 plants. Cant wait for that to be honest, I have been waiting to swap my flats layout and furniture around for ages but I have been awaiting these beautiful girls to finish up before I can move stuff really. Its going to be a pretty big job, but when its done I should be pretty self sufficient with regards to my medicine. This will be a HUGE relief to me in more than one way. It will remove the constant anxiety that I will run out and not have enough medicine, the cannabis itself will also help with my anxiety and depression. It will also help me in a third way just by doing the gardening itself. Gardening is such a therapeutic act in itself bu also the fact I am caring for my medicine for its whole life and then its harvested in order for it to look after me. I love the process massively. I am very scared that UPDATE - FRI I was looking through my used seed packs and I realised id made a mistake and that the pant on the right is RQS Easy Bud. This 100% so I changed the diary. I also fits with previous photos that have been taken of this strain. Makes a lot more sense to me now. I now need to see how long they suggest running it for. UPDATE - SAT Just checked on the ladies and I have some kind of flies starting to infest a little :( I dont know what they are they look like some sort of fruit fly or something. Thy don't seem to be too bad at the moment but I am going to slow down on waterings a little. I increased the amount I was watering so I don't think the top layer of soil is drying out enough so that will definitely make their houses more hospitable to them. I also checked the trichomes with my jewellers loupe but it is a really shit one and its really hard to look through whilst keeping the plans the right distance from the loupe and steadying the buds so they will stay in focus. Anyway long story short, the trich's are starting to get cloudy now. I couldn't see any amber though, I am kind of looking for as much of a narcotic high as possible so will wait a while longer. I am going to start flushing for a week, maybe 2, tomorrow though. I actually checked both the plants for trichomes and they were both at pretty much the same stage, however, bud development definitely looks more advanced on the Royal Creamatic plant due to the fact the pistols are mostly amber in colour now. This is the problem with growing different strains in the same bed. I also noticed I am starting to get some deep purple colours on one of the royal creamatic buds. Only a tiny bit but it's interesting. Am going to wait till tomorrow to take more photos as tha will e the begginning of week 9. I don't really expect the creamatic to pile on loads more weight now really, I have noticed they seem to be excreting lots of "gooeyness" in terms of feel in the past couple of days. The buds look smaller but more compact on the creamatic compared to the easy bud. The problem is one strain I am growing says 8-9 weeks and the other says 10-12 weeks (according to breeders website) and one plant does look about a couple of weeks ahead of the other, however, its the wrong way round and I did have problems with labeling them at one point so I think I may have got them mixed up somewhere along the road!!! It definitely doesnt seem right that the one that is meant to be ready for harvest around now still has all white pistols and the one that is meant to have another 2-3 weeks left, all the pistols are nicely retracted and amber and is starting ti fade before flush and get nice blue colours on the bud. No, I definiely think I labeled them wrong and will probably start treating the as such from here on in I think...god why am I so unorganised!
