i started with LST. unfortunately the plant grew too fast in height, which doesn't make it any easier now. next week i'll try it with twine. maybe i should it just let it grow as it likes.

She is at day 91 from seed at the time of this writing. I have been flushing her for about 4 days already and will continue to flush for 1 more week. She is changing leaf colors in the spectrum of red, purple, yellow,and orange; a true beauty. I am taking her down next week on day 98 and will let her ripen and give one final push on the bud swell. I also performed backbuilding techniques on the main bud sites which entailed the clipping of the top of my buds ( about 2 cm).The terpines from this plant is amazing. When i touch the flower she feels nice and dense with a smell of lemons, gummy bears, and diesel. She is naturally defoliating nicely although i do pluck off a few dying yellow leaves here and there. I did go through and cut off the smaller "larfy bud producing" branching in order for the plant to concentrate more so on the swelling of the more desirable colas in this final push. So far so good, i would just like to see more of the white pistols go amber, which they have started to do, before i harvest. I did trim and oven bake dry those little popcorn buds i trimmed off and went for a test smoke in some bamboo papers. Although i destroyed the terp flavors by doing so (expected) the high was clear and long lasting, very pleasant with zero couch lock. A decent body stone and mostly a cerebal pleasure. I cut my nephews hair right afterwards and was able to focus....which i like. I only expect the final product to be even better.

It's been a good week, the buds are becoming so heavy that they can hardly be kept. I'm just chairing now and waiting another week.

Day 17 17/07/24 Wednesday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag 5ml -5L. Very humid week, noticed a green turning colour on top of soils where the humidity has been far to high. I have installed door netting and recently left open all day and night now so they can condition over night in colder temps. Growth wise, explosive little seed 👌💚 Day 19 19/07/24 Friday Lite Feed today, 250ml each pot small run off. Seeing excellent start to these babies. Let's get it 👌💚 Day 21 21/07/24 Sunday De-chlorinated tap water pH 6 with calmag 5ml to 5L. Watering in 1L each day from now. Updated video

Lots of fattening up this week. This girl is looking fat for such a small plant. Gonna ease up on nutes this next week, and hopefully there'll be a harvest next week!!! Issues with the leaves seems to have stopped after adjusting pH and adding some calmag.

Almost time I should of trained her and for sure if topped her will give it a week or so n see again

PAR- 472.0 R-211.9 G-170.4 B-89.7 DLI - 30.59 Week 4. These weeks are flying by, I just got back from a family vacation and they're are looking wonderful. excited for these autos!

What am explosive week!! Trio is looking great!! Increased ppms on two and lowered by 2% on the last girl as she is very sensitive. All three have had incredible root growth, ill take pictures next week. I added cal-Mag to their line up and increased the light intensity to 50% will stay here for the week and increase 5% each week. The pH has not been fluctuating like the last run, these girls like to stay around 5.8-6.5. The tent VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit) has been holding stable in the green for the last 4 weeks, I am going to shift the environment over the next two weeks to the next stage of growth which is the late veg/ early flower.

Week VIII — The Golden Fade Another week has passed beneath the false constellations of Eldritch Gardens, and the garden has begun to wear the colors of its final transformation. The vibrant emerald that once filled the chamber slowly surrenders to shades of gold, amber, and pale lime, as each leaf offers the last of its strength to the flowers above. Flush started too early but it does not matter anymore. Plant #1 — The Fat One — has become a breathtaking monument to abundance. Every branch now carries dense, swelling colas wrapped in an ever-thickening coat of crystal. Trichomes spread across the flowers like frozen stars scattered upon ancient stone, glistening beneath the humming LEDs with every passing day. Its aroma has become nothing short of intoxicating. An overwhelming tide of pungent gas collides with vibrant notes of ripe fruit, creating a fragrance so rich that every opening of the tent feels like disturbing the seal of a forgotten temple. Hidden beneath the sweetness lingers that unmistakable chemical edge, sharp and mysterious, hinting at the powerful genetics awakening within. Plant #2 — The Battered One — continues its quiet conquest. Its towering structure remains firm, its flowers stacking with remarkable symmetry while resin slowly overtakes each calyx. Though less extravagant in fruit than its sister, its identity has become unmistakable. Pure diesel. Raw fuel. The scent is bold, uncompromising, and impossible to mistake. It fills the chamber with the aroma of ancient engines and forgotten roads, as though some impossible machine beneath the sea has begun to breathe once more. Together, the two remaining queens have transformed the grow chamber into a cathedral of resin. The leaves continue to yellow, one after another, surrendering their stored energy to the swelling flowers before quietly falling away. There is no sadness in this sacrifice. Every fading fan leaf becomes another offering to the harvest yet to come. This week also brings an important realization. The calendar claims the eighth week of flowering has arrived, yet the plants whisper another story. Beneath the microscope, the trichomes reveal their true intentions. Most gland heads have turned beautifully milky. A handful remain crystal clear, while only the rarest few have begun to glow amber beneath the lens. Perhaps the flushing began too soon. Perhaps these ancient genetics demand another week—or even two—to reveal their fullest potential. The flowers continue to harden. The aromas deepen with every passing day. Nature refuses to be hurried. So the ancient virtue returns once more. Patience. If the garden asks for a ninth week... Then a ninth week it shall receive.

The good vegging progress is noticable as my plants no more producing buds or crystals They are now GROWINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

4 unknown plants accidently popped from previous grow buds + Auto Gorilla Cookies surviving. text to edit

Week begins 8/12 LAST FEED 2 gallons 8/12 AFTER A RAINING NIGHT. 8/13 I've found what appears to be septoria on a couple plants. Looks like the weather will be OK tonight so I can apply organocide or something similar before dark. I've seen random pillar damage so this will be a two-for. I also should move the middle plant back and utilize my space more. Ph seems on point around 7.3. Higher in some places of the soil. I've noticed what looks like root issues on my blueberry. Winds were horrible yesterday and this plant doesnt hace a vertical trellis for support. Stem was pretty wobbly for a while but the plant seems to be growing fine. Either that or a jpn beetle munched the top of a bud. That's probably what happened. It was in the low 50's this morning. That's a 40 degree temperature swing in just a few days. This grow season has been the most challenging I've faced. Of course it had to happen when personal, family, and health concerns rear their head. Oh well. I can only do my best. 8/14 Went over at 5am to apply organocide to treat WPM or septoria as well as insecticide for pillars. I got there and one of my healthiest plants had been turning a little lime green now it was drooped over just like the larger GDP. This one is a 9lb kush though and they were doing good. Now it looks like it's dead over night. Maybe it's that liquid kool bloom. The soil seemed dry so I watered the plants. It MIGHT have picked ok a little. I'll have to check tonight. If not something is going on at night or in the rootzone and I really don't know what the fuck is going on. I will post updates and check later tonight. Damn. This has been a real challenging year. 8/15 That plant might be overwatered or not be draining correctly. At least I was able to get underneath it and the ground was dry. It was also hard packed dirt so elevating the bag may help. I'm going to wait a few days and see if things improve. This really sucks. I'm getting that defeated feeling. I need to get out of it though as I'm starting to see flower begin. The blueberry is probably the farthest along. I need to remember to take pictures of the newly developing flowers. Granted I've had numerous medical and other issues that have taken me off my game but losing two plants in one year is pretty shitty. I was able to fix things with COVID last year or the year before so I hope I can at least save this 9lb kush plant. If I lose this plant too it will be a substantial amount of cannabis lost. I need to rearrange my cage as well to make use of the extra space. Maybe I could've overwatered that plant that had been in the rain for a long time. I need to get my water routine down pat instead of doing the "lift the pot" method I have been doing. I went to several different commercial growers and got a bunch of crazy answers. Only time will tell. Last night I finished the organocide application on all the other plants except for the two babies and the drooped 9lb kush. Don't want to stress it further. I'll see how it goes. 8/16 Despite the soil drying out the newest disaster (my 9lb kush) is much worse with chlorosis killing leaves. Stalks and branches seem good. Soil smells musty and a little wetter than the rest. It was roofed to the ground slightly. NO water underneath. I stuck my hand in the bag from a bunch of angles. It's like the same thing that happened with the other one. I added to my surveillance. I also smell bleech and I hace an idea this might not be my doing at all. I can't be detailed but I'll find out one way or another. UPDATE. Went back over after the dentist and plants were dry as a fucking bone and droopy. I mixed up five gallons of phed water and watered everything. Even the 9lb kush that is pretty much dead. The soil was dry though. Everyone is saying overwater but I really doubt that. We had some massive rainstorms bur still. I need to review a game cam I have because unfortunately my cams went on the frits for a couple days (and the dogs went wild during that time around midnight) couple nights in a row. I fucking smell bleech. I'm a good dude and don't really have any enemies but we'll see what the game cam pulls up. 8/17 Of course we are getting a shit ton of rain. I watered yestetday because everything was dry as a bone I watched yesterday as my blueberry was almost horizontal due to the wind. I added several supports to every branch and a few more up the main stalk. That may be what has been happening. The wind blowing so hard it separates the stalk from the roots. My problems started after I took my windbreaker tarp down. I put it back up for this storm. Or maybe it's just root rot. I dont fucking know. I cut all the dead stuff off the 9lb kush thats pretty mucb dead. Its holding on though. I probably shouldnt have watered that but it seemed bone dry. Maybe further down was wet. I dont know. Extra cams are up. I didn't smell that chemical bleachy smell today so it's probably in my head. I have better peace of mind with the night cams up though.and the dogs though. I've had a visitor this year but he left very quickly. 8/18 We got a shit ton of rain last night. No damage though. I spent what time I had in the garden working on the 9lb kush that looked like it was dieing. I'm not giving up on this one so easy. It seems to want to hold on. Despite the severely overwatered medium (due to this storm) I cam see new growth that looks healthy. The branches also seem stronger. I'm cautiously optimistic. The other one straight up died. So I might be able to salvage this. I'll go over later today and check on it. I debated putting it inside for the storm bur I figured I'd let the rain leech out anything in the medium in case it's locked out or something. At least I've got a couple real healthy ones this year. That NYCSA is amazing. That's a strain I'll probably grow again. Resilient as all all. Vigorous and doesn't seem impacted by things like WPM or other fungal ok infections or diseases like some other strains. I got a great recommendation from my buddy to use pots all the same size. It makes things easier watering. I just used what I had this year. I had bigger pots so I wanted to fill them. That tarp being up I think greatly helped with the wind. It's down now so things cam dry out. Still raining bit not yard and no wind. I think that may have played a large role in killing the 7ft GDP. Wind ripping the stalk away from the roots. Or it could've been a million other things. I'll never know. I do know that I have a better mindset, a great set of resources and I'm learning something new every year. If I can br8ng this plant back to life I'm going to be very proud of myself.....and her. Oh and I'm going to buy new tiger bloom. I'll start beasty bloom (hesitant as it has caused lockout in the past) as it goes better with my other nutes than the liquid kool bloom. Plus I started getting portables around tge time I used the liquid kool bloom. That being said, after two weeks I can see buds where there weren't before so I don't know. Next year I'm using seeds and I'm doing things different. I'm STRONGLY considering rapacaps idea about adding a removable roof for flower. The more I think about it tge better it sounds. That and putting wheels on pallets (buddy suggestion) and I could attach my supports directly to the pallet. I've got a lot of work to do that's for sure. Plants look healthy but I needvto him them again with organocide to fight any fungal stuff or pillars that might be hiding.

Una pianta davvero soddisfacente.

I will need to put her in natural sunlight to cool her down. She is not coping to well with the light penetration. I will keep a close eye on her over the next few weeks!

Not doing too bad. Seems to have settled now and stopped stretching, Smells pretty peppery, like a tangy pepper haha Start her on PK warrior next week see how she does. She's got the sumo booost foliar as well as root feed this week. All healthy though she's loving the shogun stuff 👌🏻

Starting to see flowers now,did some pruning,took off big fan leaves and some other little ones to get more light in,has been 2 days rain https://youtu.be/3oju_Zeh7_E

I started out cutting off the big fan leaves and after an hour or so, I began to remember it took me 7-8 hours per plant just chopping and cutting large fan leaves... So! I thought to myself, “fuck this shit”.... I continued cut/hanging with no fan leaf trim, 1st plant took 2.5 hours and second plant 2 hours. Laziness is bliss. I will add “harvest week”, and numbers after 7-day dry period.
