28 days later....worm poo and coffee grounds not made much difference to colour of leaves, although all are growing nicely...trying some spirulina powder next to see if that helps

Going into week 9. Weirdo stopped dying back and pumped out another set of bracts. I guess she has time, maybe this week. I just dont know anymore.. Plant 2 has atleast another week, stacking buds well. Increase in mass is apparent now as the buds sway in the wind. Something must have happened for weirdo to die back like that. Not quite sure at this point as I haven't changed anything in a few weeks. Maybe a little pk boost. Looks like the symptoms I had when the plants suffered a drought but my system has been operational the entire time, as far as I know. I'll update if weirdo gets the axe this week, but I'd rather pull them together if I can.

Apolo F1 Mission Diary - Chapter One: The Germination Adventure Greetings, fellow cultivators and green-thumb enthusiasts! Today, I embark on a thrilling journey with the illustrious Apolo F1 from the generous folks at Royal Queen Seeds. A hearty shoutout to @James and RQS for entrusting me with this botanical endeavor! Our mission begins with a ceremonial soaking – a 24-hour baptism in water. Picture this: the seed, poised on the edge of germination, absorbing life essence like a tiny horticultural superhero gearing up for a mission to conquer the soil. After this aqueous initiation, our Apolo F1 found a cozy spot nestled in a Soil Plug sponge. Why, you ask? Well, these sponges are like the first-class cabins of germination – providing a soft bed for our sprouting champion. No Spartan conditions for our future ganja greatness! Lo and behold, in a mere 24 hours, our little seedling emerged from its watery cocoon, showing off a minuscule tail that screamed readiness for action. It's like witnessing the birth of a botanical superhero, cape and all! Now, onto the supporting cast – Aptus Holland Nutrients, my loyal sponsors in this quest. These nutrients are the unsung heroes of my garden, the Gandalfs to my Frodo, guiding the way to a prosperous harvest. A nod to organic mineral goodness – the only line I trust like a seasoned captain trusts his compass. But wait, let's not forget the shoutouts! Massive love to Grow Diaries for being the digital arena where growers unite, share wisdom, and showcase their green achievements. And to my followers, you're the wind beneath my plant's leaves, propelling this journey forward with your unwavering support. As the Apolo F1 unfurls its leaves to the world, I invite you all to join me in this botanical odyssey. Buckle up, dear readers, for we are about to witness the magic of life and the artistry of cultivation unfold in each leaf, each nutrient, and each shoutout. Stay tuned for the next chapter in our Apolo F1 Mission Diary – where we dive into the world of nutrients and nurturing! Until then, happy growing, my green companions! As always thank you all for stopping by and for supporting me on this journey, i am super passion about growing and fell blessed to have you all with me on this new journey <3 <3 <3 Genetics - RQS APOLLO F1 Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO

War 10 Tage im Urlaub. Die erste Woche wechselhaft und verregnet, dann 3 heiße, schwüle Tage. Die automatics bauen schön Blüten auf, Apple fritter Auto sind am weitesten, dicht gefolgt von sweet zz Auto, dann creamatic und critical Auto ( die brauch noch minimum 5 Wochen..) Apple fritter Auto vielleicht noch 2 Wochen. Die feminisierten wachsen gesund und verzweigen schön . Es läuft gut. Bis nächste Woche ✌️

Profumatissime e cime da paura.....pianta che per problemi ho dovuto tenere fino alla fioritura in vaso da 1 litro e senza lampade alla luce del sole, appena entrata in fioritura cambiato vaso e messo in una tenda con 400w hps....si spera il meglio le gemme sono promettenti!

The thickening is complete! Into the ripening stage we go smelling like sweet bubblegum candy and chemically skunk cologne. Although she ran into some N tox late veg into early flower, she didn’t seem to care! Extremely thick and relatively dense buds, next level trichome coverage, and lowers that look like some of my tops when I first started growing 😂 Super satisfied with these results, and I have 4 more beans of this strain to run! She’s ready to chop now, but I want to allow my Cookie Monster (SamOG x FS) to finish drying first before harvesting this one.

Week 14, day 99, the second week of flowering has started, and it shows on the plant. It looks like Cookies Gelato #1 has started flowering before #2 and #2 started before #3. Look at the photos from above, I cannot wait to see when flowers will be enormous and lots of them!! Of course there is no weed smell yet but the plants have a wonderful smell of mint and lime. I'm also still trying to LST the plants even if they are mature, just to get a bit more light. Approximately two more months and I'll be ready to harvest, I think the yield will be terrific. Have a good one everybody :)

Eccoci qui… Questa settimana ho eseguito la defogliazione e il lollipopping per sfoltire la parte bassa di tutte le piccole… Da questa settimana inizio a dare i fertilizzanti e vediamo cosa ne esce, ci sono piante che vogliono mangiare ed è ora di accontentarle!!! Grazie a tutti per il supporto!!! ❤️🔥🌲 IN CANNA

I think everything is fine with this little girl, except for the insects' marks, she is beautiful and she is showing more dense coloring, because at night the cold is noticeable, you can even look at red or pink hairs, it is beautiful and begins to smell very rich, like a wood varnish

I have been using LST in the form of a fan on medium speed to try and strengthen the main stalk of the plant as well as planter rotation to strengthen the main stalk for tie down LST. So far I've been impressed with the rate of growth and the overall experiment. For what it's worth, the growth wth is very very similar to a hydroponics growth. I'm sure as the experiment continues I'll notice some big differences. It does appear to have either a minor potassium deficiency or a little too much nitrogen. Will monitor and update as needed. The above signs may have been trying to indicate the main stalk was weakening from too much weight from vertical grow rate. This would ultimately lead to a fractured stalk. Is this what happened or is it a fungus or disease problem? Plant C sprouted within 48hrs and will be 6 days behind Plant A. End goal of harvest is still 360g from the two plants combined. Both plants are looking very happy regardless of the toxicity or deficiency. Strong strain nonetheless.
