04/06/25: Twelve days after placing cuttings into the Clone King, all clones have successfully developed roots. Early signs of rooting appeared on day 6 for a few of them, and by day 10, every cutting had begun pushing out roots. While root vigor varied across the group, the consistency of success at this stage is encouraging and speaks to the reliability of CloneX and the aeroponic method when paired with clean RO water. I selected five of the healthiest clones to move forward, potting them into 1-gallon containers. Three of those came from PL4 and two from PL1. One plant from each genotype will be kept as a new mother plant to preserve the genetic lines for future projects. The remaining three—one PL1 and two PL4s—will continue on as part of this grow journal through flower. One of the PL4s is being designated for chemical reversal. The goal is to induce hermaphroditism in that plant and produce feminized pollen, which will then be used to pollinate both the PL1 and the second PL4. This will allow me to create both outcrossed and selfed feminized seeds, as well as collect and store the resulting pollen for future use. Four of the selected clones were transplanted into 1-gallon AirPots, with the fifth placed in a fabric pot since I’ve temporarily run out of available AirPots. All were planted in Roots Organics Original soil, which I pre-moistened before transplanting. Introducing rooted clones into dry soil can create unnecessary transplant shock—roots prefer contact with a moist medium from the start to ease the transition and promote uptake. Now that they’re in soil, the focus will be on recovery. Moving from an aeroponic environment into a dense medium is a stressful shift for the plants, and while some temporary drooping or slowed growth is expected, I’m looking forward to seeing how quickly they bounce back and resume vigorous vegetative growth.

Day 28 flowering: Hi all. The mango girls are continuing to swell with lots of fresh pistils and looking nice and crispy too. They are all beginning to smell so sweet of the mango that they take their name from. A real subtle smell that I haven't had before in a strain . The 3 older plants have been stripped out a littlenand some of their big fans removed for airflow but I did not go too aggressive on them as I did not want to slow them down too much They are not too tall and would easily train even lower for a stealth grow. The buds themselves are a nice thickness and show some promise to join up in the coming weeks for mini donkey dicks.( sorry for the term but easiest verbal to visual cue.lol) I initially thought the node spacing on a few was a little wide but seeing how they are forming , this is less of a concern. the #4 at her day 21 is looking ok but her pot had feed pellets used as the nutes and she may be too overfed. I will use just water for her future feeds now. I am very impressed with how easy these are growing and with very little effort needed from me now beside waterings. I am hoping by keeping so much of the leaf intact that it doesn't stop the development within the deeper canopy. There are some really nicely forming buds in there so airflow is a vital concern now they can only get even fatter from here lol be safe and well.

First week of flowering and it seems to go quite good, the brown powder we see on the leaves is insecticide. Next week we will start with some food!

Como escribí anteriormente, no pensé en realizar un seguimiento, por lo tanto, no tengo fotos de todas las semanas. Desde esta semana sí llevaré un seguimiento. Estas fotos y videos son del día que inicia la semana 6. Desde el inicio de la floración, la planta ha multiplicado por tres aproximadamente su tamaño. El olor es riquísimo, como a frutas exóticas muy dulces. Fui demasiado ambicioso y le di demasiada vegetación considerando el pequeño espacio de la carpa. Como dispongo de muy poco espacio, quise aprovecharlo al máximo; todo el espacio está repleto de puntas, lo que no deja pasar mucha luz a los cogollos de abajo. Hay demasiada materia vegetal, por lo que, para evitar la aparición de hongos, tengo muy vigilada la humedad. La extracción de aire y la ventilación están encendidas casi todo el tiempo para evitar la botritis. Nos vemos la siguiente semana.

Done with drying, I cut her bud sites and placed them into a mason jar. I bought the boveda packs that are 62% RH. Now time to sit and wait 2-3 weeks and see what the finished product is like. Again everyone thank you for watching the grow up! 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I do have another diary with 5 auto berry’s, if anyone would like to continue watching the grow up. 🙌🏾🔥🌱 I have a lot more confidence in the autos just because this grow was my first time grow. Now I know the basics and everything else on what to do, so better and bigger buds on my next grow. ✊🏾😎

So... it happened Because of the lack of space and poor light I decided to defoliate them a bit.. No water the whole week, as the soil was still quite humid

02.11.'24 After 5 days of drying, this little girl who was a little bigger than a meter gave 950 grams and a little bit of popcorn...this picking was 870 and a little bit of popcorn, and 4-5 weeks ago during a storm, one branch broke, which yielded about 100, but let's say 80 for sure, a total of 950 grams of beautiful, huge, potent buds

Well this girl has recovered very well she was doing just horrible because I had the lights to low at 22" when 34" was way better . These led lights had me thinking I could go lower then I could ... She is doing great and will be getting the nutrients she needs I'm feeding her a 100% Canadian and organic line that got from a local company .. getting excited to see where we are next week and about do her transplant too. Cheers and thanks for following along .. canna family

1/14: This morning, I did a foliar application of big bloom and fulvic acid, then about 5 hours later I watered them with about a half-gallon of rainwater each and added armor si, humic acid, endoboost myco/tricho, liquid molasses, and a bunch of cal-mag. Today, I also I wired up and mounted my new samsung sun board strips (660nm/730nm) and my Solacure FlowerPower UVB fixture. I'm running the deep red/far red bud boosters a few hours per day right now, but will run them for the entire photoperiod once I start flowering them. I'll run the UVB for 4 * 15-minute sessions a day for the full flowering cycle, and if they don't protest too much I'll increase each session by 5 minutes and evaluate again. Some strains are more forgiving than others and I've got 5 different strains in this space...so really not sure much time I'll get away with exposing them to the deadly rays without damaging them too much...😈 1/15: I received one of the rapid led/growmau far red initiator pucks today. With the placement of my UVB light, I'm realizing I'll need another far red puck to have even and intense far red coverage, so I'm ordering another with Prime delivery and waiting to start flowering until I receive it. I sprayed them down really well with ph adjusted rainwater tonight to rinse off nutrient build-up from foliar applications. 1/16: I'm really excited to try flowering under 14/10. I grew photos indoors on an off for 15 years before I semi-retired. If I added up all the additional flowering time I could have done through the years if LED technology existed, I'd have had an extra truckload of bud to smoke. I did another application of Axiom Harpin a|b Proteins this evening, right before dark. I'm expecting a big growth burst this week, leading up to the flower stretch. I really need them to trigger under 14/10 within 4 or 5 days🙏 ...if not, I'll switch to 13/11 and wait a few more days🙏😟..if still no pistils are poppin, I'll go to 12/12 and chalk it up as bad luck or varietal indifference to Pr and Pfr manipulation. 1/17: I fed each of them about 3/4 gallon of full strength veg nutes. This will be the last. I'll go with half-strength veg and half-strength bloom for a week, then go with full strength bloom nutrients until I start flushing them in 6-8 weeks. 1/18: I installed the second far-red flowering initiator today and got all my timers configured for flowering: ========================================= timer#1 - power strip with qb's and red boosters 10:00am -12:00am timer#2 - (dual/independent setting) sideA- 3-way cube with uva bars 10am - 3pm 7pm - 11pm sideB- flowerpower uvb 1pm - 1:15pm 4pm - 4:15pm 7pm - 7:15pm 11pm - 11:15pm timer#3 - far red pucks 11:00pm - 12:15am timer#4 - sub-canopy tube 10am - 1pm 3pm - 6pm 8pm - 11pm ======================================== I also did some testing on the timers and sealed myself into the closet to check for any light leaks. All good.👌 1/19: Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/19: Looks like the FIM job didn't take on one of them..but she's got perfect symmetry. WIll probably have to just top her again next week...gonna be a tall one I think. Tonight is their first long night. It's ON!👍 1/20: I watered them today with about a half gallon each. I'm seeing calcium and magnesium deficiences here and there, so added some boomerang and heavy cal-mag-Fe along with liquid molasses, humic acid, and endoboost myco. I also foliar fed with big bloom and fulvic acid. That's it for week 4-

Purtroppo per montare il filtro a Carboni mi è caduta una fascetta sulla Limonata Viola e ha tagliato una foglia a ventaglio del nodo più grande facendo un piccolo danno, ora dopo 5 giorni sembra essersi comunque ripresa, metterò altre foto appena torno a casa, queste sono di 4 giorni fa…comunque sono veramente super vigorose queste FF di Fast Buds!!!
