I am so excited to grow this Mexican Airlines from @420fast_buds. She is About twelve days out of The Dirt and is doing excellent. But I wouldn't expect anything less from the peeps at @fast_buds. She is looking super indica early on. Can't wait to see how it goes. See you guys back here next wee for another update ( if not sooner)!!! Peace and love

The little one smells like a big one :D End of the week its time for harvest the purple lady. The Trichomheads looking good but I want a little bit more amber. So we see how they looking on the next sunday. Otherwise she will get a bit more time. Nothing to say, everything goes on. Day 78 Photoshooting

🗓️ Week 13 complete – 9th week of flowering (final stage & flush) 🌿 General: We’re in the final stretch – all three plants are currently being flushed with Flawless Finish. The fade-out is clearly visible, trichomes are mostly milky with the first hints of amber. pH remains steady at 6.2–6.3, and drain EC is slowly dropping as the plants break down their internal reserves. 🔴 Seriotica: Flush is going very smoothly – drain EC has dropped from 2.2 to 1.8. She’s responding evenly to the Flawless Finish flush (EC ~0.5). Buds are compact, heavily frosted, and trichomes are hitting the perfect milky stage – optimal harvest window is just around the corner ❄️🌕 Everything is on track – harvest coming soon!

5/10 Week 7 beginning 2cd full week of Flower Making note of that due to extensive tricone building going on with the sugar leaves, very early for this. Due to Metal Halide I suspect. Going to reduce the Nitrogen by cutting back on Bloom A/B to 10ml/gal and retaining a small dose of 1-1.5ml/gal of the PK. I would be ending the PK here but want to try this for this strain only. Will be doing some training on Athena the evening and working on the canopy. 5/11 Trained down tall branch on Athena bringing her canopy level. New nuet levels HID to 300 watts just trying to make em happy. lot of light in that tent and we are learning. The question of potency when flowering under the UV of a Metal Halide bulb is answered as far as I am concerned, got tricones 2/3 the way down spreader leaves on the second week of flower. Damn 5/12 Dropped HID lights 2 inches as they are set to 300 watts and light stress has ended. Just looking for the sweet spot. Raised Sally's pot three inches for canopy. Switching PK boosters, going to the Soul Peak for a while to see if there is any difference to the plants. The Peak is more of an organic though it has salts in it so the dose is higher. Light defoliation Pretty sure this is how things will play out, Athena will be ready first along with Sally at about week 9 or 10, looking like 9. Baba is as much as a week behind Athena in Flower so looking at week 10-11. Jane (The Twin) is going to be interesting that little plant is determined to be all she can be now hitting 9 inches in height so week ? . May actually have to train this girl lol PM update Lowered the PK to 3ml/gal running low and who knows when I can get more. 5/13 Nuets- Gave a one time dose of Fish Sh!T - 3ml/gal Leaving lights as is for now. Jane is getting interesting, in pre-flower and may be doing a stretch she is hitting 10 inches and must be trained. New ground here for sure Major clean up and train Jane at lights on tonight. 5/14 After talking to my wife concerning her grow we are making accommodations to switch the Light to HPS for a while tonight. They need some red light 5/15 Too much to do today leaving everything as is till tomorrow 5/16 Ending the week and leaving things as is, changing that light now would so negatively impact my wife's plant(which we need and badly) going to take the hit on the LSD-25 yeild and stay with the MH bulb until Cleo goes into flower. Cannot believe how thick and widespread the trics have become under the MH bulb. Slightly increased the PK booster

Week 5 pretty successful, nothing bad happened, had good growth considering the troubles I had the week before. Leaving town for 3 days so they will be on their own. Plan on watering right before I leave and right when I get back. Got my lights on timers now. Pulled the light up to 24 inch assuming/expecting the plants will grow a bit while I'm gone. Had a lil bit of yellowing at some of the tips of one of the plants as seen in pic above. Any ideas y? Also posted a video and just curious if the wind is too much..?

12/25/2023-Germination Day 1 Merry X-mas 2023 I decided to start a run of SolFIre Gardens Hoodz Candyz S1. I am going to do a cup filled with RO water a touch of Hydrogen peroxide and let it sit for 24-48 hours until I see tap root then I am going to put it into a rapid rooter.. Tap root Down and put it about 1/4 of the say down the Rapid rooter. I made some modifications to my basket on this run.. I have taken a few Pods that I use for my cloning machine and decided that I am going to try and use them as sure plants, so that I can take my water right up to the bottom of the basket this time and see if these can make my planting more consistent.   12/26/2023-Germination Day 2 Tap root achieved Planting Commencing 12/27/2023-Germination Day 3 Misted the dome lightly misted the rapid rooter and added a little water to the bottom of the pan to encourage root growth to the pan. 12/28/2023-Germination Day 4 Ground Hogs day 12/29/2023- Germination Day 5 She is up, she has broken surface, I misted the root riot, and around the bottom of the tray to try and entice root growth down rapidly. 12/31/2023- Germination Day 6 Ground Hogs Day 1/1/2024-Germination Day 7 HAPPY NEW YEARS!!.. I did it I planned it out so my planting day would fall on New Years and it worked.. Yay!!! 1/2/2024- Germination Day 8 Since the roots are not to the water yet, I am pouring one cup of water lightly on the hydroton around the lady to try and encourage root growth down to the water.. 1/3/2024- Germination Day 9 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. 1/4/2024- Germination Day 10 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/5/2024- Germination Day 11 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I am going to change the water Sunday and kick off Week 1, I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/6/2024- Germination Day 12 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. I will just continue to top feed until roots are in the water.. Shouldn't be more than a few more days. 1/6/2024- Germination Day 13 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water. 1/7/2024- Germination Day 14 Ground Hogs day, will continue until roots hit the water.

Week 11 (10-4 to 16-4) 10-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 52% (lowest) No pictures. Added 10L to the reservoir, and turned it on for a couple of minutes. 11-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 21 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 61% (highest) 52% (lowest) 12-4 Temperature: 25.5 degrees (lights on) 22 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 57% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. 13-4 Temperature: 26.5 degrees (lights on) 23 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 65% (highest) 56% (lowest) 14-4 Temperature: 26.4 degrees (lights on) 22.1 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 64% (highest) 45% (lowest) Turned the reservoir on for a couple of minutes. The reservoir is almost empty, there is 850 ml left. 15-4 Temperature: 24.4 degrees (lights on) 20 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 59% (highest) 49% (lowest) No pictures. 16-4 Temperature: 23.5 degrees (lights on) 19.5 degrees (lights off) Humidity: 60% (highest) 53% (lowest) Today i defoliated both plants heavily for the last time, you can say i did a method called: schwazzing. Dont know why but while i was defoliating the Chemdog smelled a little bit like soap haha. Turned on the reservoir for a couple of minutes. (Till the AutoPots are full and the valve closes) Rised the pots aswell, so the canopy is very even. I let them recover from the heavy defoliation i did, and next week i will slowly increase the light's strength. (Now still at 50% 50cm)

Semana 1 de fase de floración (sprouting day 21/04/202) 1) Radiante y magnifico el desarrollo de las cepas híbridas con ascendiente de genotipo Indica ( las tres cepas de Mr.Hide Seeds - Mr. Shiska USA / Mr. Jekyll Kush / Mr. California Pearl y la cepa híbrida con ratio 60/40 de Sativa/Indica). En comienzo de floración es muy claro que los trazos de Sativa en estas cepas híbridas, pese a que tengamos razones de genética (y sus fenotipos) marcados a un 70/30 (Ind./Sat.) ; 80/20 (Ind./Sat.) y 75/25 (Ind./Sat.) en acuerdo en este orden de Mr.Shiska USA // Mr. California Pearl // Mr. Jekyll Kush, Han revelado muchísimo de modo claro fenotipos de carácter Sativa y os explicó. En las tres cepas mencionadas resulta clarísima la naturaleza de hojas con puntas estrechas; internudos en regla cortas entre si y además la estructura arbustiva en forma general de abeto donde se diseña una cola central donde se desarrollará un cogollo central de dimensiones muy destacadas y después en áreas medianas a bajas, un conjunto de ramas secundarias donde se desarrollarán un número muy significativo de ramas donde el set de cogollos secundario se producirá sen limites mayores de estrés. Resulta pues muy claro que las tres cepas referidas sacando al porcentaje menor de fenotipo Sativa, enseñan en esta entrada a floración, la estructura característica de un "pino de navidad" y por sus esbozos resulta muy claro que tendremos la ya mencionada cola central que será de un grosor muy significativo y todos los cogollos secundarios en las áreas de base. Todos los cogollos serán muy significativos a lo tocante a un carácter muy resinoso y al los cogollos esféricos que son muy típicos de los de los fenotipos Sativa. Además la linea de terpenos  de los cogollos Sativa, acostumbran a tener un aroma muy pungente de pino; trazos dulzones y esse cierre terroso que es la imagen de marca de cepas Kush y mucho de las herencias OG. En contrapartida, la cuarta cepa por orden y por qué las tres que ya han sido mencionadas por pertenecer a un mismo banco - el Mr. Hide Seeds - en el caso lá Lockdown Kush de Sensei Seeds, siendo una muy particular genética híbrida 60/40 (Ind.//Sat.) , ha revelado una genética que destaca por la enorme anchura de su grupo de hojas primarias de base. La Lockdown Kush de Sensi es además una cepa con una característica muy definitiva, pongamos el enorme tamaño de su set de hojas primarias, la enorme anchura de las hojas; la disposición en cruce alternado de sus hojas primarias y además habrá que tener muy en cuenta el enorme cruce de un carácter increíblemente pungente de terpenos y de aromas tremendamente dulzones. La Lockdown Kush será una cepa a la cual es necesario volcar una atención extremada en el plan de defoliación, pues la anchura de hojas y el cruce de los tipos alternados de las mismas, tendrá una importancia muy destacada para que no haya áreas del grow que queden con una combinación nefasta de caracteres como sombra, calor y humedad elevada Esa área de hojas anchas cubriendo ramas secundarias - donde se dan condiciones para esbozos de cogllos- hay que estar muy al pendiente, pues con las condiciones de verano - temperatura y humedad elevada - si no se procede a un defoliado regular, puede que se den las condiciones para la expansión de patógenos de extrema gravedad. En eso, no es nunca demasiado llevar en cuenta el surgimiento de hongos como mildiu, rimam y botritis.  Además los patógenos a nivel radicular, temibles en estas fechas pasan por algunos de niveles de letalidad de grow enormes como el Fusarium ó el Pythium . No solo son patógenos que son críticos en su desarrollo sino que son muy agresivos en su expansión y además son muy rápidos en la forma con la cual eliminan a cualquier grow. Además y si no fuera lo bastante, por ejemplo en el caso del Fusarium, si después de su surgimiento no se procede a una desinfección generalizada del medio de grow y incluso de toda la casa, los esporos del Fusarium se quedan latentes y es muy fácil que pese a que tiremos macetas y medios de crecimiento, al año siguiente, los esporos vuelvan a tener condiciones para reproducción y en Fusarium vuelva a desarrollarse de modo muy rápido y agresivo. Nunca es demasiado poner los hermanos growers al dato y dar énfasis a todos que todos los años procedáis a la inoculación de mycorrhizas y sobretodo a lo que considero uno de los "escudos" de protección más efectivos en el grow canabico y que es el uso , SI Ó SI, de la Trichoderma harzanium y en todas las aplicaciones posibles - sea a nivel foliar; a nivel radicular, a nivel de las semillas y en combinaciones simbióticas con micorrizas; con bacterias de grow y con otros agentes. Ha sido en los últimos años muy importante la aportación de estos agentes fúngicos; bacteriológicos y otros, para que el control de plagas sea efectivo sin necesidad de cargar el grow sea con óleo de neem; de los insecticidas de la "vieja escuela" como las Cipemetrinas; ó algunos agentes que en mi opinión siendo muy efectivos en lo que se desea crean desequilíbrios muy profundos en lo que sea considerado los biomas como la bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis. Este agente de control de mariposas, pupas y orugas es la "solución final" a las mariposas, sus huevos, sus estágios de pupas y orugas, eliminando estos a una razón de casi 100%, pero para mi todo es muy sencillo, "la naturaleza le tiene ódio Al vacío" y que una bacteria te produzca extinción masiva de estos insectos, algo se altera en el bioma que causará a la postre, problemas en ciclos de vida de otras especies vegetales, animales, saprofitas ó otras y siempre le digo a los amigos que les apasiona la naturaleza y en concreto lo relativo a los grows canabicos. Eliminar las mariposas, orugas y pupas, tendrá un impacto biológico que no es posible cuantificar...o sea...es justo para que nuestros grows estén protegidos de plagas que se haga uso de algunos agentes que permitan controlar el desarrollo y la relación biológica inter-especies. O seu, no necesitamos seguramente que nuestro grow este prejudicado por una plaga que lo coloque en riesgo, pero para la naturaleza como un "todo", no es en mi opinión válido, que se use un agente como el Bacillus thuringiensis, que elimina 100% de las mariposas y sus estadios, de huevos a pupas y de ahí a orugas y de ahí a mariposas. En Biología, hay siempre que llevar en cuenta que las mariposas/orugas tienen una función y que si sacamos de un "exterminador total" como el Bacillus thuringiensis, estaremos creando un "inbalance" a nivel de bioma y con ello, tendremos quizás en poco tiempo, desequilíbrios en la cadena alimentar; en las bacterias, nematodos y otros seres vivientes, que necesitan de las mariposas/orugas para su ciclo y que en la naturaleza si como "humanos" y a "nuestra utilidad*, usamos una bacteria para eliminar las orugas/mariposas que nos comen las hojas del grow...la naturaleza y su plan es perfecto... Por algún motivo, hay necesidad de que puedan haber orugas y mariposas, que coman hojas de la Cannabis spp. (sin con ello haber un descontrol y una amenaza a nuestra intención). Por ejemplo, las mariposas tienen funciones de polinización y la acción de las orugas, tiene desde hace milenios, función de estimulación por estrés, lo que ha llevado a perfeccionar terpenos y incluso la estructura de producción de moléculas como el THC ∆-9. O sea que el estrés que las mariposas y orugas inducen, con su ciclo de alimentación, por ejemplo en el ciclo de grow de cannabis, es de importancia trancendiente a la evolución de la cannabis. Imaginemos pues que desde el día 1 de la Cannabis spp., se hubiera empezado a cargar el suelos y hojas de la cannabis con el Bacillus thuringiensis, para que las orugas y mariposas no comiesen la Cannabis...como tendríamos mariposas que hiciesen polinización? Como podria  la cannabis por el estrés, apurar sus canabinóides y sus terpenos? Por eso y como os digo, para mí, las "soluciones finales" como el Bacillus thuringiensis, son un campo muy peligroso y es por antonomasia, contrariar la naturaleza en su perfección. Si la idea es tener un grow "perfecto", el "perfecto" es en mi opinión, especies que se interrelacionan, que "tiran" unas de otras y donde el principio de simbiosis se asegure...la cannabis necesita de orugas que coman de si, pues las orugas ganan con esa relación biológica en alimento; en desarrollo de mariposas que harán la polinización de la cannabis proporcionando variabilidad genética y la alimentación de las orugas y mariposas conllevará a la respuesta química de la planta, apurando canabinóides, aumento de tasas de estos y creando desarrollo de terpenos que serán fundamentales para efectos de "entourage" que mejorarán el producto final. 2) En entrada de floración hay que destacar la buenísima pegada de crecimiento a cada semana. Este paso de vegetativo a floración con el cambio a 12/12 en el ciclo lumínico de encendido a oscuro, ha sido programado tomando en cuenta que el 24 de abril (día del cambio de ciclo lumínico) ha sido coincidente con luna nueva (ciclo lunar donde el estrés es menor y donde los cambios sufren un impacto menor). Ha sido muy importante también estar "al dato" con el agua en el sistema, pues en macetas de 9 litros, si se hace fácil aportar exceso de agua, las características de los airpots también tienen una tendencia de un secado de sustrato más rápido y con ello hay que tener presente que los riegos tendrán que hacerse según necesidad. En esta semana, como medida de rectificación creí necesario de hacer entre riegos, aspersiones foliares sacando a uso elementos que en este comienzo de floración son indispensables. Pese a que el Boost de Hesi no sea un orgánico, en regla cuando usado en simultáneo como aspersión foliar con el Big One de Top Crop; el C4 de Mills; el Ultra MG de Gold Label y además el Organic Bloom de B.A.C. . Así que disfrutad, hermanos y la próxima semana y entrada, que sea claro para vosotros el estupendo trabajo que está en desarrollo y muy claro tengo que estamos en la antepara de una temporada magnífica. 420 Forever y que el verde sea sempre nuestro corazón. Abrazo, Tom

This was an interesting harvest. Everything was going great and the buds/trichomes were still piling on, when suddenly almost overnight plant "C" shifted to about 20% amber trichomes. So I harvested it, and because the other plant wasn't ready yet I decided to try water curing the first one for 7 days. Then at the end of the 7 days, I figured I'd hack down plant "D" and dry them both on the racks in the tent at the same time before moving into jars. The water curing was a huge success! After the first day, the water was cloudy with a slight green tinge. Second day was about the same. Then the water was just a little cloudy each change, no green tinge. Compare it to the diary I just opened around water re-curing some cannabis I bought from the government store, where the water is diarrhea brown :O On day 7 of my water cure, the water was perfectly clear so I decided to hack down plant "D" and get them both drying on racks in the tent together. While water-curing plant "C", I had its trim sitting in a bowl in the freezer. When I hacked down plant "D", I put its trim in the same bowl. After my typical wet-trimming, I hung up Plant "C"'s water-cured buds on the top rack, plant "D"'s buds on the 2nd rack for an old fashioned cure, and random trim from both plants spread out on the bottom 2 racks. The water-cured buds dried within about 24 hours and went into a jar with a 58% humidipack. The buds are SUPER dense and potent! Nice clean high, doesn't kill my throat. The downside is that the taste is really weak and not that great. But everything has pros and cons. Almost no trichome loss in the bucket during the water curing as well -- I was really worried about that! The other buds dried in about 36 hours and went into a jar with a 58% humidipack, where I burped it many times a day for a week. The smell and flavour are much more potent than the water-cured bud and it's a little harsher on my throat, but otherwise I'm not sure there's a detectable difference. However, you can SEE there's a sharp visual difference between the water-cured buds and the jar-cured :) Of course the jar-cured will mature more with time as well. Once the trim was completely dry, I put it in a bag in the deep freezer and dropped it to about -20. I didn't need to use a grinder this way -- I could just mash it all up in the bag with extreme ease! Sifted it through the kief screen, and pressed down 17 grams of lazy-man's hash! After processing the trim through the kief screen, I decarbed in the oven at 200F for 1 hour (this converts THC-A into THC or something to that effect -- if you don't do this, the edibles won't get you very high). I put the trim into a big mason jar and back into the freezer along with my bottle of Everclear. Once they dropped somewhere down around -20, I poured in the Everclear, put the lid on, and shook as hard as I could, as often as I could, for 5 minutes or so. I noticed that as I shook it around, the contents inside would alternate between solid and liquid which was kinda cool :) Shake it one way and it freezes, shake it the other way and it thaws... or something to that effect, anyway. I was able to use a double-coffee-filter to extract about 2 cups of dragon tincture! I threw everything in the coffee filter out -- next time I'm going to do a better job of it as there's a little pile of trichomes that forms at the bottom of the filter which I could put to use. Once I get that down next harvest, I'll have around 99% efficiency milking every last drop out of my harvests! White chocolate is so yummy, as are candy canes... I wanted to combine the two to make some edibles. Looking around for candy cane crush, I decided to check out Amazon. They had the same candy cane crush I was looking at from popular stores, for only a couple dollars more, so I figured sure why not have it delivered. I was planning to get some white Baker's chocolate, but on checkout of the candy cane crush I got a deal for adding on white chocolate Lindt bars for $1.25 a piece LOL! So I bought 10 of those. When the Amazon package arrived, I slowly boiled down 1/2 cup of my dragon tincture in a pot, then used a double-boiler setup to melt down 4 of the Lindt bars in the same pot. Once it was mixed well with the hash oil, I set it aside to cool for about 3 minutes before stirring in 1/8 cup of candy cane crush (plus I ended up adding maybe like a tablespoon more), pouring into a pan lined with parchment paper, and putting in the freezer for 30 minutes. So now I have a nice big chunk of white chocolate candy cane crunch stuff where a piece the size of my thumb gets me super high for like 8+ hours; 17 grams of lazy-man's hash; and 88 grams of bud :) And still enough dragon tincture left over to make 3 more rounds of edibles -- not sure what I'll make next! From now on I'm going to water cure a large portion of all my buds -- not just the ones I grow myself, but ones I buy from the Gummint too!

This week was phenomenal. She is starting to grow vigorously, and I am really hoping she grows 8 tall, fat ass mains. Cream Mandarin XL auto from Sweet Seeds is already on my list to run again, excellent Auto to build a manifold. I did the least amount of LST on her that I have done on any of my 2 previous auto manifolds, so I'm hoping she grows tall and then I will see what this new Mars Hydro FC 3000 can do. I decided to start running a time lapse last week, so I posted one weeks worth of growth, but I will keep running it for at least a few more weeks. She's only a foot tall at day 35, but I'm done messing with her and hoping for a monster stretch in the next 15 days or so. Thanks for stopping by, be safe, and have a great weekend!

On day 32, 2 of 3 kicked to flowering...the one with parasites issues from week 1, still looks healthy and is almost as big as the others.
