This diary will be solely too showcase as I go along also too help me keep track here and there when needed. Not all will be correct or down too perfection but is still a journey you can join along with 🌱 Gifted these great beans from across the water and glad to finally see them pop through the soil 💚

Неделя прошла вроде бы нормально, куст подходит к своей логической развязке, а точнее к харвесту по немногу и это очень и очень радует) Многие листья начинают уже сильно желтеть и отсыхать сами, хотя все условия хорошие) Шишки ещё некоторые надуваются, а многие затвердевают уже, собераюсь дождатся янтаря, по этому ещё затянется не плохо время(

9.30 - I build a little fermenting CO2 generator this week, mostly for shits since I'm not going to seal the tent up. Otherwise things are going as expected. Noticed a really big change in bud structure and how they are densing up. Really enjoying the show and the change in colors and pistil behavior. Got her propped up to increase circulation and get a better idea of when she needs water. 10.1 - Just documenting the bud evolution for fun :) 10.4 - Whatchu guys think of my rescue marijuana plant!? Not bad, huh?! 10.6 - Plant grew some new whites and oranges and buds are bigger 10.7 - changing every day. What a wonderful thing

Hey all! Finally! This is the last week of veg! :D I know Matcha still has a lot of things going on but I believe I've waited more than enough for this (10 weeks is a lot considering one of the plants is still small and the other one isn't as big as it should be). Both are also starting to drink more water compared to before! Pistachio is now getting thirstier a lot faster now! I defoliated both plants and I'll do it again in about 3 more weeks to allow the lower budsites receive more light. I believe I could've trimmed a bit more heavily but I believe what I did was enough, they have been going thru some issues and I don't want to risk it all. I also removed all the small growtips in my plants, the ones that are just going to never develop very well because they are way too low and no light will reach them well. Anyway. see you all next week! ;)

This week went by well, I will start checking the trichomes on the Runtz at the end of this week. It should be ready for harvest in the next 2 to 3 weeks The G13 is still smelling like magic, looking majestic. The GDP buds are starting to put on weight

Now it gets interesting! the couskush took to training as well as you can expect and auto to take to 90° bend training, it's bushing out nicely although highly apex dominant. It's pushing out thick leaves and loads of pre flowers and flowers. Sprayed it once with micro and kelp but i eyeballed the micro and it was too much so there's residue everywhere... I'm probably going to have to clean each leaf one by one with a moist paper towel, but that's a problem for future bulbi lol watered it with some co2 and also with a mix of micro and beneficials 2g each of the micro and 5grams each of the spores for 2L of water, of which i only use 1.5L that's three pints. I raised the pot slightly using a bakers tray, getting that airflow in. It's finally getting interesting now, so i'll be doing my best to get some nice pictures in. Comments and suggestions welcome ! drop me a message ! 🚀

Hey! Welcome to week 8! Karen is mid way through her flowering stretch. Please check back to last week as I update daily so the week is now complete. I count about 20 colas now. Day 51: Have reconfigured the tent, see video. Karen is now 36cm and still stretching. Karen has more light now. Smell is still there hits you when you open the tent. Fertigated 2l. Day 52: Height: 39cm. Karen's scent is heavenly. I have reconfigured again and installed some upgrades. Better reflector. Much bigger carbon filter. Increased airflow. Better config. More efficient pot layout. Karen is lovely. I am grateful to her and for her, so I wrote her a little poem, I hope she liked it. "Karen! Oh Karen! The phoenix of flowers, Three lowly weeks she struggled in vain, Shadowed and starved for five hundred hours, He slowly wept to witness her pain. Karen! Oh Karen! I P-H'd your showers, and in the fourth week you started to gain, Hallowed and hard you survived as you cowered, I thought you meek, I was wrong once again. Karen! Oh Karen! Forgave me my howlers. She set a pace, a pace she maintained, Now shes a girl at the peak of her powers, And so I'm a geek, with buds on the brain." Day 53: Approx 48h into a simulated dry spell. Alright I think it is time for Karen to get her first MAJOR defoliation. I will update shortly with photos and info. I will also be doing some gentle LST to separate the colas a bit. Day 53.5: Defoliation and LST. Finally got chance to photograph that bunda. Enjoy! Day 53.75: Bit of a fail. Messed up the timer and the lights ended up being off for about 3 or 4 hours. Because I was cooling the room (open window) to keep temperature in the tent down, without any light the temperatures absolutely plummeted as it is sub-zero outside. By the time I realised and turned the lights on, the temp in the main tent had dropped to 14 degrees celsius. Whoops! How is that for mistreating your girl? Defoliated about 80% of her leaves, 4 nodes, significant LST, then stuck her in the cold and dark for 1/6 of a day. Not to mention she is now almost 3 days into a "dry spell". There do not seem to be ill effects, and Karen has already begun to respond to the LST; all the colas that had been changed in angle are now upright again. The dry spell I keep mentioning, there is a method behind my madness, I have spotted one or two small flies and I think they may be fungus gnats. I am starting to suspect that the 2nd seedling in the Purple OG Punch Auto grow was actually beheaded by fungus gnat larvae. So I am drying out the mediums as much as I dare. I am closely monitoring the plants, so far the only one I have had to break the drought for is Enigma; all the girls in big pots haven't even noticed it's dry yet. How far am I going to push it? Well I will judge it on a plant by plant basis, but quite honestly I am hoping to see physical signs of thirst before I breakdrought. Of all the plants the two I think will respond most strongly to this will be Karen and Bertha, because of where they are. Karen here is actually probably 4 weeks into flowering rather than two, so about now is a good time to give her a little hydration stress. I do not think I will push it past 5 days, as RH is 34%. By now all the plants will be compensating for the lack of moisture and the high temperatures and low humidity. They will be taking more and more moisture out of the coco, and as the coco dries further and further down, those plants that have space will start desperately growing roots to find moisture. Mark my words, 24 hours after I end this drought, every plant in the tent will throw out crazy growth. Day 54: Ended drought and fertigated 6l, no run off, I will re-fertigate tomorrow. Karen is still stretching her height post LST is now 37cm. The two tallest colas seem to have stopped but the other colas are still stretching. Day 55: Alright so it has been 5 hours since lights on, and Karen is looking in good shape, all her drooping leaves have perked back up and she has added quite a bit of foliar growth. The colas are all still rising, except perhaps the two tallest. This girl is absolutely loaded with pistils, I'm starting to see trichomes on the sugar leaves, but trich production hasn't started in earnest yet. She has a least 20 colas, and 6 of them are thicker/taller than the primary cola at her tip. Every one of her nodes has reinforced itself with a bulbous growth and these cola branches are swelling rapidly. I am increasingly of the opinion that, all being well, this girl is going to surprise us all with her yield. My first grow, which was just mucking about really, I got 60-70g of the two main plants, and they were just bare sticks with 2 colas. Although her height is less than theirs was, 2/3 of their height was bare stick... whereas every mm of her is befoliaged and living. So in terms of the height of the actual cola I think they were about comparable in usable space on a per cola basis. The main difference being that Karen has 20+ colas whereas they had 2 primary and 2 lower. I know that it is probably unrealistic to expect more than 70g from a single auto grown indoors. Nevertheless my gut tells me this baby could achieve at least 100g, perhaps as much as 150g. The next few weeks will determine that, but given where we were in week 3 I will be grateful for any yield of quality bud. I have dropped the lights down to 18/6 from 'tonight' onwards. I really have no idea how long we have left for Karen. According the the "brochure" she flowers for 7-8 weeks, with a total crop time of 9 weeks. The problem is I don't know what a total crop time is? Does that mean from seed to finish? If so Karen is clearly not going to be anywhere near that timescale.I am going to go ahead an assume that, for my plant anyway, the first 4 weeks were veg weeks. I think it is fair to count week 5 and 6 as flowering because pistils were popping out very early in week 5 if not before. So that makes this week four of flowering. I am going to assume 8 weeks rather than 7, so I think we have another 4 full weeks give or take a week. On that basis I am expect harvest week to be around week 12 or so. I am not fixed on this though, I am determined not to harvest this girl early. Day 55: Photos taken 00:00 9/3/23 Strong 24h of veg growth as predicted. Day 56: Existing leaves continue to swell. Stretch appears to be slowing. I've taken so many media this week that I cannot scroll down far enough to select a recent thumbnail. Probably Karen's biggest week in terms of changes. She is looking like she is going to impress. Height 39cm.

I'm sorry I'm a little late for many reasons, but everything is fine, the harvest had to be done a little earlier because mold appeared due to high humidity. I liked the effect, it's a good sativa and energetic and I will definitely grow it in the future kannabiaseeds💚

The ICE is almost done; the NL doesn’t even seem close. Interesting since ICE sprouted a day later than the NL.

4/6 Woke to see two seedlings have lost their shell. Only one had a weird long curvy taproot that has come out of the soil. I'm not sure if I should perform surgery or just wait it out. I mean I can see the seed on top and the cotylden leaves. It's like it dips and can't hold the seedling up. The other mk ultra popped excellently and another has the seed visible. I'll do some research but I'm now doing away with peat pellets and going right into soil from now on. It seems like these just cause problems. The seedlings under the hps are doing better. I think it was smart to switch the light. I can see what MIGHT ve burns on a couple seedlings and TWO haven't developed there true leaves or are very stunted. So if those three don't make it ill be replacing them with the ones I just popped. I may pop tge other two mk ultra but more likely I'll wait the three days until my 10th planet comes. I took apart some of the sour cherry seedlings just to see how they were growing. Makes me feel better as it might not look that great on top but they were working on developing roots. I'll update later. I've got a lot going on in my life but I need to make sure I take care of my seedlings. 4/7 Pretty sure I watered today. I'll have to check but I know I did. Things are going better. I think that bigger light stunted them. The 2 mk ultra and 1 chem dog #4 sprouted and were in peat pellets. I transplanted them into solo cups with happy frog and put them on the outskirts of the light. I thought i might've lost one because the taproot came out of the ground and bent. I'm suprised it came out of it to be honest. And fast too! My Etho's 10th planet came so I'm thinking of popping a couple of those as well. They won't be stunted and this strain has done the best by me. 4/8 WATERED EVERYTHING WITH A SHOT GLASS BESIDES THE FRESH TRANSPLANTS. Forgot my water yesterday so I'll pop a couple 10th planet today. I MIGHT not lose any seedlings. They seem to be coming out of being stunted. The ones that WERE stunted anyway. However there are a couple I'm not sure of. Better safe than sorry. I'm getting excited. I'm going to bring the other hps light to my cousin and he'll fix it quick. That way I might not even need to switch to the L.E.D (that I'm not as familiar with.) I'm sure it will be fine either way. Clones did great under the l.e.d. I think it's just a bit much for seedlings. Which is strange since they sprout under the sun? I have the least experience dealing with seedlings as I usually but clones. I forgot to take pictures too. I have to go back over and ill take some. ADDED A FEW PICTURES AND POPPED 2 ETHO'S 10TH PLANET SEEDLINGS. THIS WAY I CAN SAVE A FEW AND ILL HAVE MOST OF KY BEANS FOR NEXT YEAR. IVE GOT A BUNCH OF AUTOS TOO BUT IVE NEVER GROWN ONE. ONCE THINGS SETTLE DOWN AND AFTER THIS SEASON I MAY TRY MY HAND AT INDOOR AND THOSE AUTOS WOULD BE GREAT FOR THAT. NOT SURE IF I SHOULD START A SEPERATE DIARY FOR THE 10TH PLANET OR JUST KEEP GOING HERE. IF I DID IT WOULD BE A SINGLE STRAIN DIARY SO I COULD ENTER CONPETITIONS. BUT DO I REALLY WANT TOO? 4/9 DIDN'T WATER. MISTED THE TOP OF THE FRESH TRANSPLANTS. HAVENT CHECKED THE 10TH PLANET BEANS YET. ITS NOT TIME. I may end up losing a couple seedlings. I'm not sure. They may just be stunted bit I could've damaged them when I removed the seed from the seedling. Only time will tell. That's why I popped the two 10th planet beans so even of I lose a couple seedlings, I'll have what I need for the year. It's like those couple are growing taller but the true leaves had barely formed and don't seem to be getting any bigger. They probably got burned and stunted. I'll monitor them. CHECKED THE 10TH PLANET AROUND NOONTIME. WASN'T THINKING AND IT HADN'T BEEN 24HRS AND ETHOS SAYS TO WAIT 36 HOURS BEFORE CHECKING. BOTH SEEM TO BE VIABLE SEEDS ONE HAS A TAPROOT AND THE OTHER HAS SPLIT OPEN. I'VE LEARNED MY LESSON AND IM GOING TO GIVE THEM ANOTHER 24 HOURS. NEXT YEAR IM GOING TO INVEST IN A HEATING PAD FOR SEEDLINGS. Edit: What a change in weather from two years ago. I got that intuition feeling so I went to check the girls. They seem to be stretching but not NEARLY as much and are now getting some leaf growth. They were all within 10 grams of dry soil weight save for one that is a larger plant. That was 217. Everything got watered with a shot glass and the soil slowly soaked it up. I even had to water the fresh transplants. They have grown to the top of the cups! I filled in the Ched dog #4 with soil and watered. The mk ultra is larger and the soil was a little chilly. I put a little under the light to warmup so I can fill in the other two plants. Man I feel better seeing them out of their slump. I never should've started with that 1000 watt led without testing it. No matter what the box says. I'll take pics tomorrow. 4/10 Had a crazy morning. Didn't take pictures as it was a hurried morning. I filled the 2 mk ultra cups with soil and watered a shotglass. Looking at the first series of seeds I started, (the pink kush and special kush #1) two of the 3 seedlings that are stunted SEEM like they might make it. I might cull them anyway if growth doesnt pick up with the others. I'll see what happens. The first true leaves are coming apart when the were straight up amd stuck together. They looked done for. Luckily we have SUCH a long veg season that even if something is stunted, we have time for it to come out of it. If it will. Things are going well since switching to the hps light. I noticed some slight yellowing on the Chem dog's first true leaves, so I pulled the tray away from the light a little bit. The two mk ultras in the same tray are fine though. I may start a new diary for the tenth planet. Not sure but the 2 seeds attempted germinated and had a nice taproot. I transplanted them DIRECTLY into solo cups with a little Happy Frog soil and Myko's and slightly covered them before misting the tops. I cut a powerade bottle in half and it fits IN the cup perfectly a humidity dome. I misted the tops as well and put them under the asrgarden light until they break ground and get their true leaves. Man I can't wait. I know it's been a rough year for EVERYONE but I've had some particularly difficult situations. Can't wait for this season to start. Next time I go over I'll get some pictures but nobody really wants to see seedlings. They pretty much all look the same. At least I learned something. Oh and I took apart all the sour cherry seedlings that were growing and dissected them and found why a couple had problems. Seedlings are what I have the least experience with so when my whole pack didn't pop I wanted to see if it was me but it wasn't. All those other beans popped and I got some hands on experience dealing with seedlings so maybe a blessing in disguise!. EDIT: WENT OVER AND CHECKED THE PLANTS. I WEIGHED THEM AND I ASSUME THEY WILL NEED WATER TOMORROW. I DID WATER 3 I THINK AS THEY WERE UNDER 200 AND HAD BIGGER PLANTS. EXCEPT THE ONE THAT LOOKS THE WORST. THAT SEEMS TO DRINK A LOT OF WATER. I THINK THAT MIDDLE ROW (2 SPECIAL KUSH 1 PINK KUSH) WERE STUNTED. HOWEVER, I CAN'T SEE WHATS UNDER THE SOIL AND THEY ARE GROWING TALKER AND DRINKING. THE TRUE LEAVES THAT ARE TINY AND LOOKED DONE FOR ARE PARTING AND THOSE PLANTS ARE STILL STRETCHING. I'M TRYING TO LOOK AT MY LAST DIARY I DID SEEDS WITH AND AM TRYING TO REPLICATE IT. ONLY THIS TINE WHILE I AM REDOING MY HOUSE AND MOVING AS WELL AS BEING A MEDICAL CARE GIVER. ENOUGH OF THAT. THE SNOW IS GONE. ITS A LITTLE DISCOURAGING LOOJING AT SMALL SEEDLINGS INSTEAD OF BIG CLONES BUT BY THE END OF THE SUMMER THE SEEDS WILL SURPASS ANY CLONE I BOUGHT AND I WONT HAVE TO DEAL WITH ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT CONE WITH CLONES. I NEED TO EMPTY AND CLEAN MY BAGS AND CLEAN AND STERILIZE MY GROW AREA. I ALSO NEED TO POISON THE CAGE AND BLOW ALL ORGANIC MATERIAL OUT AND POISON THE STRUCTURE ITSELF. 4/11 Seedlings are doing ok. I'm wondering if I should put up the other hps as thats what I did the year before when I did seeds. However they weren't "stressed" or "stunted." I think I MAY lose one but the other two had the true leaves stuck together and looked crispy. They've since started to open and I can see new growth. Other seedlings seem to be taking off and finally developing some leaves. The 2 mk ultra and 1 chem dog #4 didn't experience that other light and they seem to be doing great! Checked the 10th planet and one seed is poking out of the ground. I can't see the other one yet but it was a little further behind and I may have sowed it deeper. WATERED everything but the mk ultra and chemdog. I just misted the top of the soil. 4/12 WATERED ALL THE KUSH WiTH A SHOT GLASS. The mk ultra and chem dog didn't need it. Weighed cups and the lowest was 199 to about 207. The three stunted or (damaged) plants seem to be coming out of it. At least new growth is coming and they are drinking just as much as their siblings. I'll play it by ear and see how it goes. The jumped in size just since this morning bit phone was dead. Both 10th planet are now showing in the soil! Things are going good. I'm stoked!

This week went good. They are on day 16 as of this post, pics were taken on day 15. They filled out the net about 85%, some plants branched out more then other or were topped more so that is one thing my partner could work on. Cover crop didn't do too well for him as he let the medium dry out a little too much these last few days, and the middle section has yellowed up a bit due to being a little more hungry then the outside (mainly in the Mando). We will see how they finish the stretch and then we get to stacking and packing weight!

2nd ever grow and first time using Fastbuds genetics. I'm running 3x Six Shooter, 2x Pineapple Express and 1x Crystal Meth. I'll be starting diaries shortly for the other 2 strains as I'm hoping that these plants might be good enough to enter in diary of the month competition. I was supposed to be going with 3x Shooter and 3x Pinapple express but unfortunately even though I germinated 4 of each, only 50% of my seeds sprouted. I know theres only 2 six shooter in the photo but a friend of mine has one spare from a batch hes germinated so has kindly given it to me. The Crystal meth was a free gift seed so I'm running that in place of the dud pineapple seed. I've put them in a little 1x1x1 veg box that I built this weekend. Made it to fit alongside my larger tent. Plan for these girls is to veg them in the box for 3 weeks under the cheap 300w LED with plenty of co2 then move them to the bigger tent where I have 4x 315w CMH lamps. All 3 will be topped and if I have space will go under a scrog. They are actually only 4 days old since sprouting but I do all of my diaries on a Sunday as I get chilled early and have time to take photos and do weekly reports. See you guys next week!

Very slow growing let’s see how it goes after the LST. Day 28 getting better but still not satisfied
