week 9 day 58, the buds getting bigger, nice colors 😍🌈 day 61, she's look great and healthy! the trichome started to become milky.. still no amber trichomes are showing..

The plants are still growing at a good pace. Just finished their 1st week on 12-12. They definitely filled out so we went ahead and did like a 40 % defoliation to help the light get through all those branches. Waiting to see the start of the stretch and some more early signs of preflower. I was short on time or inwould have more up close shots of early signs, I'll edit mid week and update on how they bounced back from the trimming.

Day 6 - all is well with both plants. Organic molasses teanyo be used going forward to increase sugar and flavour

Loving this new camera quality! Really brings out the green shine. Anyways they've all been loving the feeding regimen. Two feedings a week with 2 molasses feedings in between seems to do the trick at this stage. Also wanted to mention the height is in reference to the tallest of the three BanDad's. Which is the one I topped surprisingly. For future reference, anybody following a similar formula to my grow will definitely want to top just once around week 2/3. She didn't even take a recovery period, really. Just chugged right back through, 3 days after. Now she dwarfs the other two BanDads quite immensely. Definitely been destroying my initial notion of not topping autos with this one. Cheers everyone!

📆 Week 1, 6-12 May 2024 6 May - 3rd sprout appeared. Waiting for main root to appear before transferring. 8 May - Main root appeared on the 1st sprout, transferred to its permanent home (see pictures). 9-12 May - Observed and watched the seedling grow. 📑 Transferred seedling into permanent Deep Water Culture, 2 gallon system. I’ve always had the best response when the main tap root appears prior to this process, it helps to ensure success. This plant seems to be getting off to a slower start, but steady. All seeds germinated, sprouted and became seedlings. I’ll be finding homes for the other 2 as my grows are limited by space and number. Another reason I like to only germinate a single seed at a time and primarily why it needs be viable. “One good seed is all you need”. 🍶 8 May initial nutrient solution started 🍽️ 8 May initial feeding schedule started 💧 Using reverse osmosis water with EC/TDS at 0 🐉 Nutrient solution EC 1.0 at 72 degrees F 🔆 Light power at 50%, DLI 12-15 canopy coverage at 18hrs 😤 Using PYPABL, Air Pump, 400GPH That is it for this week. Thanks for the look, read and stopping by.

Hallo zusammen 🤙. Sie wächst sehr schön und macht keine Probleme.

Mar 19 Day 1 of Flower 12-hour light cycle Mar 20 725ppm / 5.89ph Mar 22 759ppm / 6.03ph Mar 24 780ppm / 6.08ph +defoliation (large fan leaves and lower branches)

Added a little time lapse video for y’all to see my journey - atleast this clone journey- with this strain. Hope you enjoy it. Every day is a learning experience and she is like that saucy best friend - keeping me on my toes. She got 2 gallons of recharge, increased liquid nutrients - finally, some new minor tip burn which is what I was looking for. It’s about 1.25 gallons per day to keep her moist, 2 gallons to even get a cup of run off. (Every 3rd day I saturate her). New nutrient addition this week is tps signal- which I had great success with during end stage on another run. Plus I had hoped it would curb her appetite more. But by the 31st….she still wasn’t happy. I yell at her - “my goodness woman, what do you want from me!?” 🤣🤣 Mega nutrient increase coming up. 🙂 - and I’m watching the trichomes closely. I’m taking a ton of the lower branches/larf for a 6 week flower CBG harvest. I intend to mix it with the final thc flower product to maximize the benefits of the plant in certain smokes/edibles.

Started Some LST by pulling down the main stem on day 15 coz they were doing nice and good and took well to their feed without any issue. Come day 16 and *!SNAP!* It's Like Hearing one of your own limbs breaking and number lll lost her top from coming on 5 nodes right down to the first node, It was a sad day in the box , hearing a branch crack is the loudest sound in the grow esp if they are so young. I tried some surgery with some duct tape and left it for a couple of hours hoping it would recover but nothing and I decided to let go and clean up the top nicely, Basically grew out 5 nodes to be topped at the first by mistake and I was considering topping the Autos just for a test but it seems like my hand was forced, Be very gentle with the LST is what I've learnt from this but atleast I still have something to work with and might even consider mainlining depending on the growth. Day 17 And They Are All Recovered nicely after thier feed and the bud sites are now pushing from number l and ll (I've Marked the bags l,ll,lll)

Had my brother defoliate these girls for me.😎 ✂️ Just watching for those hairs to show up.♀️

My pictures seem to have re organized themselves, just give me a few here and I'll get the full rundown . So this week ( day 21-23) was MAJOR defoliating. What my first step is to start taking the largest fan leaves . My next step is about halfway through the canopy I'll stop and then I'll start working on the very bottom of the plant now at this stage in the game anything that doesn't even have a nice Bud site so a nice white hair sticking bud at the very bottom like shoots I'll just cut them right off. This is the first steps of a main line but I don't complete the actual full main line I probably will try it sometime soon just not this time. So you take off anything that is a small shoot coming off the main stems and then your next step is . STOP. It might be a minute it might be 10 minutes, 20 min , it might be an hour or more ( my tip is don't wait a full day I try and do it within the first 12 hours of starting it) but I always stop just to look at what I've done sometimes if you get going too quickly you can end up doing way too much. Stand to talk to canopy and look what sites are getting hit by light what places are these families beneficial to use for photosynthesis. Anything that is not doing as much good will be taken off and at that point I'll probably do another you know 5-10 minutes of defoliation maybe take one or two more shoots at the bottom to ensure what's left there is a huge fat cola that's going to give you those huge buds . After this you're going to want to do your best to support those stems that are going to hold a lot more weight as if the plant would have been with all the shoots so you're going to want to just make sure that you have staking in place or some sort of support system to keep them from flopping over a breaking them in the future because that's one thing yeah it's great but then it'll get to a point where oh no stuff falling over and then it's just more hassle than it is helpful. I got alot more pictures to follow this week so stay tuned !!!

So this little lady has started too ripen rapidly I have too say I am alittle disappointed with the pheno I grew of this for my first time , she Sayed very small and the bud production has been VERY slow and minimal too , but what is on there smells amazing and looks too be full of oil there are lots of tiny tight dense bud that will be a pain too trim at harvest time witch will be next week looking at her development , I am very confident that what she does hold will be mind blowing but for me she has short changed me as if you look at the other three grown in the same space on the same feed have exploded with dense thick bud , so not sure what happened here but hey you can't always hit the jackpot pheno I geuss , I have alot of work ahead of me in the next couple of weeks that's for sure :)

Day 9: they are all looking super healthy and ready to explode! I’ll just veg these fast. Let them grow a node or two more then top them all and wait some days then switch to 12/12. I’m having 9 plants in the same tent.

****************** GINGER NUT COOKIES *************************************************3rd Jan 2020********************************************************** Awhile back I made a diary on here, about how I used a Clone of a Red Diesel from Barneys Farm plant, to create feminised pollen by reversing the sex using sodium thiosulphate mixed with silver nitrate which then makes silver thiosulfate solution or STS as its probably better known To get up to speed that diary can be found here https://growdiaries.com/diaries/42051-barney-039-s-farm-red-diesel-grow-journal-by-grey-wolf-growdiaries Then after I proccured some pollen I pollinated two Plants from Fastbuds in this Diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/42635-gelato-auto-girl-scout-cookies-grow-journal-by-grey-wolf-growdiaries This diary will be showing the Growth of the result of Crossing the @BarneysFarm Red Diesel with the @Fastbuds Girl Scout Cookies auto . In Australia we have a cookie variety called Ginger nuts and I thought that an apt name for this strain combo I will be growing it in Soil fully organically with Sunshine and Love. Fuck knows how it will go and how it will even turn out but that just makes it more interesting & challenging for Me. So here we go & Let the Fun begin........................🙏🙏 Once a week I will post a link to an Aussie Band/performer performing one of their best songs to start things off Please Watch this video clip Dance Monkey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0hyYWKXF0Q

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

first I shed the substrate with 400-500 ppm feeding short fertilizer The seed is sent to a glass of water 200ml / 6.5ph / 200ppm for 12 hours after - the seed is sent to wet cotton pads for 2-3 days

Mucha humedad vía foliar primer riego con fertilizante día 8 dosificación muy leve 👍🏻
