7/22 Day 112 from sprout, day 58 of flower. Well, this was unexpected. I came home and found I have multiple branches falling over due to the weight of the buds. I got them all tied upright now, but I honestly thought I was harvesting shortly. Instead, they are still chugging along and packing on more mass. I removed a few more crispy leaves and at this point anytime I reach into the tent itโ€™s impossible to not have my arm absolutely covered in resin. I suppose I can stop checking trichomes for now, itโ€™s almost as if she hit a new growth spurt suddenly and clearly needs more time. This does throw a wrench into getting the Mac N Jack moved into the tent, but Iโ€™ve spent almost 4 months now growing this beauty; I canโ€™t screw it all up now by harvesting too soon. 7/26 Day 116 from sprout, day 62 of flower. This is where Ethos says the Fanta Sea should be ready for harvest. As super pumped as I am to finally chop her down, if Iโ€™m honest with myself itโ€™s just not there yet. Doing a trichome check says itโ€™s getting closer, maybe around 50% clear, 50% cloudy, and a very small amount of stray amber here and there. So on we go. Leaves up top continue to fade and dry up, and as they get crispy I rip them off. Pretty sure Iโ€™ve heard Dr. Bugbee explain that in late flower itโ€™s normal for the plant to pull extra phosphorous from the leaves, seeing as how we are pretty light on P using a 20-10-20 fertilizer. So Iโ€™ll keep letting her get her fade on while checking trichomes here and there and hopefully weโ€™re close to the finish line soon. 7/28 Day 118 from sprout, day 64 of flower. Getting closer. I did a deeper dive into checking trichomes today, checking a few different top buds, a few different middle height buds, and a few way down below in larf territory. Up top was predominately milky, a small amount of clear, and a few ambers here and there. This progressed to more clear the further down I went. Iโ€™ll wait until Sunday before I check them again. I also did lower the light intensity just a hash mark under 75% to more simulate โ€œfallโ€. Maybe silly, maybe not, but Iโ€™m trying it.

The White Widows are growing bigger and fading out more and more every day! Iโ€™m getting anxious for chop because they smell so good! Iโ€™m just a bit worried about how faded some leaves are getting, Iโ€™m doing my best at removing them because I absolutely do not want to encourage bud rot or WPM! My cousin and I built the worlds SMALLEST Vortex Air Lift Brewer for my nutrients and compost teas. This unit is only 3.5 gallons which is perfect for my setup, as I never need more than a gallon or two for each grow box containing up to four plants. We designed and built this thing in a single day, the only thing that took time was waiting on all of the parts to finish it. Unfortunately the pump needs to be stronger so sheโ€™s only running off of one pipe, but on Wednesday a pump twice the size will be coming in to save the day! Things are about to get real good for these upcoming grows ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜ˆ

Little buds start showing up more and more everyday now, and the smell is incredible! Massachusetts has been experiencing some heat waves a lot with short intense thunderstorms with high winds yet these plants have continued to do what they do best and thrive. Plants have been given another round of Jobes organic granular feed with a 2-5-3 composition on NPK, and have started to restore their dark green color in new bud sites. I have been giving them heavy water due to the intense heat of 90-100 degrees, sometimes twice a day of around 3-5 gallons each watering which could result in slight flushing and more frequent feedings. I will have to wait and see, and watch how the ladies respond

These gals are doing fantastic! Smell is really starting to come out now, smells like a very strong citrus pine ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ™Œ Switched them to full strength flowering nutes and they're doing pretty well. I probably should have transitioned them a little earlier but a little stress doesn't hurt, they're growing just fine! Heat is also an issue but they'll manage ๐Ÿ˜… 8-4-18 :: Largest plant's bucket got empty on accident; Filled a 15gallon reservoir of full strength nutes and pumped the solution into the bucket as always. Next day my largest plant is dying and the other two are fine, looks like lockout. Flushed for a day and then added nutes, no improvement.. Orange pistils are appearing pretty fast on it too as if it's trying to ripen but not grow. My heart is broken๐Ÿ˜ฐ UPDATE: Realized I was an idiot and didn't plug up the holes I drilled into the top of the buckets (I stick a hose in there to fill them up) and the roots were exposed to light.

Hey farmers, It's day 107 and I'm going to call it done, there's a few amber trichomes and she could probably go ANOTHER week but I need my flower tent. This plant went way overtime, and I made a lot of mistakes, but she smells great and one thing is for sure, I'll have a ton of weed in a few weeks. So, this week I flushed and next week I will harvest, the next update to this diary will be post dry, but before cure. As tradition, I'll have a sneaky taste before putting her in jars. For my next cycle I will be upgrading my lights to Mars Hydro FCE 3000, going from 150w to a whopping 300w. I'll probably get a 3x3 in the near future, too. As always, stay safe and happy farming!

Lately I've been obsessed with photoperiod plants and the topping technique all very nice but you can't forget the Fastbuds autoflowers either. The Cindarella was a very particular plant, it did not grow very tall but very plump and chubby and the particularity is a fantastic main cola (another thing I reluctantly give up if I do topping), it has two horns like a devil or rather three but two are predominant and are fantastic. really. top. Resin in rivers as usual. Smell like a Weed Spirit. Music of the Week - Gerorge Clinton to get crazy bud. Radio Nula from Slovenia the rest of the time.

Buenas, hoy subo mi primera semana con las Juan Herer! Me siento muy emocionado, este es mi primer cultivo de exterior. El cultivo lo empiezo en interior y para fin de septiembre lo trasplanto afuera directamente en la tierra. A ambas plantas le puse un nombre particular, #1 Gina Herer, #2 Juana Herer.

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of โ€‹โ€‹3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-10-01. New week, video of the girls is added. The stretch is over and the start to produce buds. Girl Nr 1 is 51 cm high, Nr 2 112 and Nr 3 is 31 cm. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-10-06. Added some closeup pics.

Both seem to be slowing down as far as stretching goes. They both are getting slightly taller every week. There were a few weak fan leaves and stems near the bottom of both plants so I defoliated a bit more. Bud sights look nice and healthy and are have a nice slight smell.

This is the week 2! Well, the plant looks really healthy, and she kept growing up, straight to the light! Good to see that even after the strange beginning, with the stem crooked, she recover her path! This week, I'm also planning to start feeding them with some NPK. Just need to read a little bit more about it and buy nutrients. Probably I'll try Canna stuff. Anyone know if it's good?

Vegetative week 2 --> A quiet week. The plants grow fast and beatifull, not too much taller but with many new leaves. I watered them the fourth day of the week with 2 lt of 6.5 pH water when they dried out. The environment is always stable and under control. In conclusion, this week the two ladies became bigger and taller with a great and fast vegetative grow๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’ช. Temperature grow box---> 22-26 ยฐC Umidity grow box ---> 45 - 55 % Total water of the week ---> 2 Lt/plant
