Hey Guys, so I have ran into some difficulties regarding our power supplier. Due to the current situation we are facing in South Africa the power company "Eskom" does not have ample supply to provide constant electricity to our country anymore. This is very sad. So they implement a system called "loadshedding" where the cut off power supply in certain suburbs at certain times. This has got me in a complete and utter flat spin as I'm not always at home when this happens. The past 2 weeks have been immensely rough as we we're scheduled for outages 3 times a day for 2,5 hour intervals. Between 02:00AM - 06:30 my tent's power went off (depending on scheduled time). This has in fact caused some VPD problems ( I tried getting up every night, but I still have to get enough sleep for work ). As you can imagine, it sucks BIG TIME. I've done my best to keep at par & doctored where I could. *Decreased Light Intensity (600W) *Decreased Wind Velocity on canopy Almost approaching the start of week 3. Feeding schedule from 3 day interval - 2 day interval ( 2L per feed ) Selective defoliation to get light on lower tops. Used some garden wire to support 2 main colas which we're too high. Note: Pest/Mould check done. Foliar sprayed with H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) @ coolest part of day - Next day applied high alkalinity ph'd water to kill mildew spores - Fan heater running from 03:30AM - 06:00AM, pulsing/regulating temp at 19-21°C [ until light comes on ] Grow Logging Light Distance From Canopy = 65cm Substrate Temp = 16 C Substrate PH = 6.0 Normal - Moist Level 79cm = Scrog Net Height 95cm = Tree Height PPFD = 20.1 C = Tent 45% RH

Fifth week of flowering. All goes perfect, active christianisation of trychoms as well as changing it colours from white to yellow-brown can be observed. Plan to continue raising ppm this week to 1500, ph 6.4-6.6. Next week gonna flush them well and then it's in the bag;) Good bless the one reading this, peace.

16/5/22: Week 3: VD15 for both. AN stands a little taller. But she comes of enzymes and TP goes on them this week, following their guidelines as far as when to give them the nutrients but I'm far of giving their recommend dose. 15.5 CM for AN GROW & 14cm for TP GROW. Both have been put into the 150x150x220 homebox and I have my 70x70x160 inside my big tent, this will allow me to keep the RH high in that tent while the photos veg and autos will be in full bloom. 17/5/22 both girls were topped above the 5th node. 18/5/22 Figuring out how VPD works. You could read for hours about this stuff and still not dial it in for years. But here's the basics. VPD 0.4-0.8 kpa for early seedling. So under or around 23c and around 50-60 RH. atm my VPD is 1.05kpa and for most of my plants the optimal range is .8-1.1 kpa. Temp is 80 F 25C and RH is 70%. To find the perfect VPD (Vapor Pressure Deficit)check out optimal ranges of VPD for growing stages, also your strain should have the optimal VPD. I don't have an infrared temp to check the LVPD (Leaf Vapor Pressure Deficit) that's a whole other ball game. Im not going to get too boged down at the moment with VPD&kpa. As I said that's in a whole other league. Im going to run a basic VPD environment though. In heavy flower my temp will defo be in the 26-28 range as I'll have the 20L dehuimifier in my 5x5x7. 22/5/22 Solid growth coming from these 2 ladies. 15+ cm growth in a week is great. Hopefully I'll get another 4-7 days of growth before they start flowering.

Finaly she is looking and getting better. Becaue of my low humidity I had to spray her with water each time 15 min before the light when out. As you can see it helped allot. She is a tough lady and this genetics with the Plagron line is golden. I am almost ready the flip it to 12/12. I will do it this saturday. She only had water this week because the bat mix soil has enough nutes for her as you can see.😃 Also I dimmed my 250 watts to 175 watts and hang the light higher and what a change. After I flip it to 12/12 I will go back to 250 watts and after 3 weeks of flower i will 10% more. And I wil lower the light too. Lets hope she gets some nice colas.😅

Gorilla cookies is a great beginner plant. I had my humidifier too close to GC early on causing rust spots. Week 6 there is no signs of rust spots and growth is consistent with the bigger plants in the tent. I was thinking this plant maybe behind given the rust spots, it caught right up, healthy hardy strain.

New week for the Fast bud 420 The CBD crack the cheese and purple lemonade are a couple days further into the stretch and getting tall. The rest definitely have some stretching to go. I come to realize tho and i already semi knew it that this is probably gone be the only autoflower run i will do The strains that have 35 of veg and 30 to 40 flowering are perfect as auto flower quick turnaround On the other hand tho auto flower that take 65 to 70 of Flowering are not in my opinion this is as long as normal photoperiod plant and that gets way bigger more yield etc . I don't see the point of growing a autoflower with 60 days of flowering Then just get a photoperiod Strain and let it Flower week 4 ore when ever you want Control control control 6/11/22 Did some light defoliation 2 to 4 leafs per plant 9/11/22 So far it all goes without any issues I my self is Struggling a lil bit with what ore when to feed some nutrients because of shorter flowering time by some don't want to over feed them to much so flushing don't take for ever 10/11/22 Stretch update cheese strain is not stopping as you see here in back middle she now around 110cm More updates Tru the week Happy growings growmies

Vamos familia tercera cuarta de vida de estás apollo black cherry de SeedStockers. Que ganas tengo de ver el progreso de esta variedad, las plántulas están sanas, se ven con buen color. La cantidad de agua cada 48h entre riegos. Esta primera semana ya añadimos nutrientes de la gama Agrobeta. Tuve problemas de trips en un indoor y tengo todas plagadas pero ya las e tratado con aceite de neem y un insecticida genérico, también añadí tiras azules, trataré esta semana.( esta semana me llega el aceite de neem y el jabón potásico) Trasplanté a maceta definitiva 7 litros. Estas próximas semanas veremos cómo avanzan.

On day 1 week 3 flower I am slowly readjusting blumats after reset from fertilizer clog. The flower clusters are building. The leaves are still somewhat canoeing but it seems better since I dimmed light back to 75%. On day 4 I can tell that the stretch is over now. The girls tops are still too close to the grow lights, but it is too late to top/prune the plants so I may end up with some burnt colas. I am going to take the risk and know at the bare minimum I will have all the lower bud sites that are in the proper light intensity. On day 6 the flowers are definitely getting larger.The girls are starting to put off their blueberry smell nothing strong yet but it is building :). On day 7 the girls are doing well, i look forward to seeing the buds put on weight and smell :)

✂️ Harvest Report – White Widow ✅ Final dry weight: 76.35 g The buds are compact, frosty, and visually quite appealing ❄️ However, with a total of 76.35 g dry, she unfortunately stayed below expectations. → That puts her among the weaker yields in this run. 📉 The late-stage pH lockout likely affected both appearance and final weight. Still, considering the stress she went through, she made it to the finish line respectably. 🌿 Trim & Rosin Plans Collected around 35–40 g of trim and popcorn buds. I’ll press 5 g of that into rosin and see what kind of return I can get 👀

11/17/18 Beginning of week 4 of flower. Day 21-22 of flower. So far I am pretty happy with my results. O think I identified one sativa leaning phenotype, one indica, and also that grows slower then the rest. Although not entirely sure if its the environment that created these differences. As they further develop I may get some clues to this regard. Black Magic soil seems to work great with no issues of burning or deficiencies whatsoever. Are far as smell its not very noticeable unless the plants are disturbed or pruned. Decided to discontinue the Aerated teas. Im sure the ladies have plenty or microbes in the soil. The rest of this grow they will only be feed 3-12-12 bloom fert untill its time to start the flush. Buds should really start to develop in the coming weeks so stay tuned. Also im already planning my next run which will be 10X different strains including this one. Another 5-6 weeks on this one. Shout out to ilovegrowingmarijuana.com for these beans. 11/24/18 End of week 4 and the buds are looking amazing. Nice and frosty already. Noticed slight yellowing on the tallest girl. I suspect my LED was a little too close. Increased distance.Other then that smooth sailing. The next 2 weeks they should really begin to develop and put on weight. Cant wait to see what these 4 beauties produce!
