This week the girls were covered in snow. I've never seen anything like it with my own eyes before, only in pictures :D The lower large leaves have turned yellow, but this time don't panic :D experts say it's normal.

WEEK 1 - 23/7/2021 - 30/7/2021 My 6th grow! I've managed to finally build a reliable RDWC system. It has been put on hold for nearly a year now. My primary concern is flooding when I'm not around. Another if there is any blackout affecting the water/air pump.  I've had the system on test run for a week now and it has been fantastic. No leak whatsoever! I'm so glad I decided to go with all PVC pipes and bulkheads rather than using vinyl tubing for the waterfall outlet. So far so good! Can't wait to transplant into the system. :) 20/7/2021 - 2 packs  of Harlequin seeds from Weedseedexpress (5 + 1), 12 seeds soaked in 10ml/L of Nitrozyme for the next 24 hours. 21/7/2021 - All 12 seeds transferred to paper towel and soaked with Nitrozyme and placed in humidity dome. 23/7/2021 - Only 5 out of 12 seeds germinated. But all 12 transplanted to small rockwool cubes, soaked with Nitrozyme mix water then placed in humidity dome. I accidentally cut one of the cotyledon while removing the shell. 27/7/2021 - 1L of water mixed with the following: Rapid start - 1ml/gal - 0.3ml Hydroguard - 2ml/gal - 0.5ml 30/7/2021 - It has been a slow start and the seedlings have been showing signs of nutrient burn. Out of 12 seeds only 4 properly germinated and even that is showing issues. I don't have a good feeling about these seed genetics. I'll give another week to see the growth response.

stretch day 7

Esta semana ha llovido mucho(desde lunes a jueves) mucha humedad mucha agua, tengo miedo que aparezcan hongos, asique solo la regue con tricodermas para intentar combatir esos futuros hongos. La próxima semana subiré fotos de las otras macetas también, ya que no hice tiempo para hacerlo hoy.

Salut à tous, germination dans la terre directement avec le substrat Seedmix, en godet biodégradables, pendant 10 jours puis rempotage en pot géotextiles de 4 litres et substrat Zero mix Guano Diffusion. Terreau enrichi avec Lombricompost, Alguacymor, engrais guano, en 3-4 semaines les racines avaient entièrement colonisé le substrat sauf pour les Shogun et Cookies Gelato qui prennent leur temps ( rempotage 1 semaine plus tard ) Rempotage en pot de 15 litres pour les Fat Banana Auto et Royal Gorilla Auto, en pot de 4L pour la Critical et Royal Critical Auto, Royal Gorilla en pot de 50L mais avec environ 35 litres de substrat. Terreau enrichi comme ci-dessus avec guano de floraison et ajout de guano de croissance, passage en floraison fin de 4 ème semaine, ajout d'oligoélément Trace Mix Canna, MC4, 1/4 dose de Top-Max et sel d'epsom. Pour l'instant tout se passe bien, mon eau est très dure alors je la prépare la veille avec des bâtons de charbon macérant le temps u'il faut pour absorber un maximum de vacherie. Bref, hyper content de ses graines de chez ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS, la Fat Banana Auto ... AWAH!!!

24/02: Colas again have become real heavy in places and have had to strap them together to prevent the stalks from falling and snapping. Over all blooming well have been on maximum dose of nutrients now for a few weeks. lots of orange hairs. water now for a week and then to harvest. the topping in this grow really paid off.

12/12 first week #starskreamstash looking pro,ising Dropping the night temps.... Happy Growing added some strawberry fields soil repotted to gallons

Well these are looking great for being neglected pretty good. Probably will transplant several and flip asap or maybe give some to buddy to flower immediately. Crescendo is 3/4 on females I believe. 4th one is still uncertain. Definitely gonna flush these bitches before flipping IF they stay in the same containers. I may flip the 3 gallon bags (punchy) and transplant the 1.5/2 gallon (crescendo) ones now that I have signs of sex on most. So pumped to see some flower I haven’t had any plants in flower sinnnnncceee November? Maybe even earlier. Sheesh. Really intrigued with the punchy- those 3 are Punchberry cookies x Punch Line fems Others are crescendo bx1 Also have my own creation which is “detox” (Blueberry x Durban Poison)

They were outdoors and neglected for about 6 weeks before coming inside to finish , despite this they all yielded nice smelling frosty buds . Easy to grow and good quality flowers.

great bud

Week 8 Flower Flush flush flush 💦🚽💦🚽💦 It's extremely important to flush for at least 14 days when using synthetic nutes, or any bottled nutes in my opinion. The aim is to make her cannibalize (fade) as much as possible before she's chopped. By doing this, she's using up her stored nutrients, causing the leaves to eventually die. The better the flush the cleaner the smoke 👌💨 even when in an organic set up, the plant needs to be nicely faded before being harvested. Otherwise she's still full of nutrients. I still feel I'll be able to get an even better flush when I eventually make the switch to RO water, as my tap water holds a ppm value of approx 150. It's not too much, but 0 is always better. She was taken down on Day 57 flower, after a 16 Day flush. I didn't want to take her any further as she was quite stressed being so close to the light. So to avoid getting seeds I waited until she had a beautiful fade before giving her the chop ✂️ I always take my girls down about 30mins before the light turns on so there is minimal chlorophyll production in the plant. This is to ensure the best smell, taste and overall burn after drying and curing. A subtle but very sweet-ish tropical fruit skin kind of smell to her. Her buds are super dense and covered in trichomes. I trimmed off all fan leaves and then each branch was hung in my drying box and placed in a cool area. She was dry after 6 days and ready to be dry trimmed and jarred for curing. I'll post those pics with the harvest update! Thanks for following and happy growing! 🐺

Finalmente corté. La verdad que sl estar sin stock siento que me corrió más el tiempo. La próxima camada será con otra disposición.

These girls are just glistening and filling with trichs and resin. Such vibrant color.

Fattening up and fading yellow and purple. Believe she'll be a fast finisher and will probably go ahead and start the flush process.

This girl is always reaching for the sky no matter the weather and we are happy to say she has gone into bloom. This is the second tallest in the garden and she is setting up quite nicely, she could slow her stretch anytime and we would not complain! There have not been any issues with her beyond the overall battle with the bugs that we seem to be winning again and we think she is fabulous!

Os pistilhos chegaram 🍁

Hello Diary, Cherry Pie has completed the fourth week of flowering, the 7th week since the beginning of the vegetation. Now I can already say that we are approaching the grand finale. The plant looks really great, the large flowers have covered the branches and are starting to bend under the weight. The main cola is completely covered with flowers and looks impressive. The smell of Cherry Pie is now very intense, when I open the grow box the smell takes over the whole room even though the ventilation is still working. The leaves are still a healthy green color, it is obvious that the new nutrients Bio Grow and Bio Bloom Fertilizer are doing their job. The conditions on the Farm are good, the temperature is around 28 degrees while the humidity is below 50%. Watering is still almost every other day, they still need a lot of water. I continued to add CalMg and Bio Bloom Fertilizer with each watering. I am super pleased and happy to see how Cherry Pie looks, she really reciprocated my efforts to provide them with the best conditions I can. Here is a short review of the past week. 06/09/2024 - Day 44. Watering. I prepared 9 liters of water, added CalMg and Bio Bloom Fertiliser and lowered the pH to 6.0. With that amount of water I watered all three plants on the "Farm". 08/09/2024 - Day 46. Watering. I repeated the same procedure as two days earlier. 10/09/2024 - Day 48. Watering. Same procedure. 11/09/2024 - Day 49. End of the 7th week from the beginning of the vegetation, or the fourth week of flowering. Photographing and measuring the height of the plants. Cherry Pie - Day 49. - 73 cm. That's all from me for this week, next week I will photograph them on a black background. See you soon and thank you all for your comments.

This grow was stressful and very informative. I learned alot about what the plants want/need. Love having grow diaries to keep track of everything in such detail. I will definitely grow more Humboldt Apple Blossom in the future so I can see what the strain can really do.

Hello everyone 😎 Week 5 of flower for the OG Kush🌲 She is doing very well,growing at fast pace and with a beautiful green colour on the leaves.
