Hey! Welcome to week 8! Karen is mid way through her flowering stretch. Please check back to last week as I update daily so the week is now complete. I count about 20 colas now. Day 51: Have reconfigured the tent, see video. Karen is now 36cm and still stretching. Karen has more light now. Smell is still there hits you when you open the tent. Fertigated 2l. Day 52: Height: 39cm. Karen's scent is heavenly. I have reconfigured again and installed some upgrades. Better reflector. Much bigger carbon filter. Increased airflow. Better config. More efficient pot layout. Karen is lovely. I am grateful to her and for her, so I wrote her a little poem, I hope she liked it. "Karen! Oh Karen! The phoenix of flowers, Three lowly weeks she struggled in vain, Shadowed and starved for five hundred hours, He slowly wept to witness her pain. Karen! Oh Karen! I P-H'd your showers, and in the fourth week you started to gain, Hallowed and hard you survived as you cowered, I thought you meek, I was wrong once again. Karen! Oh Karen! Forgave me my howlers. She set a pace, a pace she maintained, Now shes a girl at the peak of her powers, And so I'm a geek, with buds on the brain." Day 53: Approx 48h into a simulated dry spell. Alright I think it is time for Karen to get her first MAJOR defoliation. I will update shortly with photos and info. I will also be doing some gentle LST to separate the colas a bit. Day 53.5: Defoliation and LST. Finally got chance to photograph that bunda. Enjoy! Day 53.75: Bit of a fail. Messed up the timer and the lights ended up being off for about 3 or 4 hours. Because I was cooling the room (open window) to keep temperature in the tent down, without any light the temperatures absolutely plummeted as it is sub-zero outside. By the time I realised and turned the lights on, the temp in the main tent had dropped to 14 degrees celsius. Whoops! How is that for mistreating your girl? Defoliated about 80% of her leaves, 4 nodes, significant LST, then stuck her in the cold and dark for 1/6 of a day. Not to mention she is now almost 3 days into a "dry spell". There do not seem to be ill effects, and Karen has already begun to respond to the LST; all the colas that had been changed in angle are now upright again. The dry spell I keep mentioning, there is a method behind my madness, I have spotted one or two small flies and I think they may be fungus gnats. I am starting to suspect that the 2nd seedling in the Purple OG Punch Auto grow was actually beheaded by fungus gnat larvae. So I am drying out the mediums as much as I dare. I am closely monitoring the plants, so far the only one I have had to break the drought for is Enigma; all the girls in big pots haven't even noticed it's dry yet. How far am I going to push it? Well I will judge it on a plant by plant basis, but quite honestly I am hoping to see physical signs of thirst before I breakdrought. Of all the plants the two I think will respond most strongly to this will be Karen and Bertha, because of where they are. Karen here is actually probably 4 weeks into flowering rather than two, so about now is a good time to give her a little hydration stress. I do not think I will push it past 5 days, as RH is 34%. By now all the plants will be compensating for the lack of moisture and the high temperatures and low humidity. They will be taking more and more moisture out of the coco, and as the coco dries further and further down, those plants that have space will start desperately growing roots to find moisture. Mark my words, 24 hours after I end this drought, every plant in the tent will throw out crazy growth. Day 54: Ended drought and fertigated 6l, no run off, I will re-fertigate tomorrow. Karen is still stretching her height post LST is now 37cm. The two tallest colas seem to have stopped but the other colas are still stretching. Day 55: Alright so it has been 5 hours since lights on, and Karen is looking in good shape, all her drooping leaves have perked back up and she has added quite a bit of foliar growth. The colas are all still rising, except perhaps the two tallest. This girl is absolutely loaded with pistils, I'm starting to see trichomes on the sugar leaves, but trich production hasn't started in earnest yet. She has a least 20 colas, and 6 of them are thicker/taller than the primary cola at her tip. Every one of her nodes has reinforced itself with a bulbous growth and these cola branches are swelling rapidly. I am increasingly of the opinion that, all being well, this girl is going to surprise us all with her yield. My first grow, which was just mucking about really, I got 60-70g of the two main plants, and they were just bare sticks with 2 colas. Although her height is less than theirs was, 2/3 of their height was bare stick... whereas every mm of her is befoliaged and living. So in terms of the height of the actual cola I think they were about comparable in usable space on a per cola basis. The main difference being that Karen has 20+ colas whereas they had 2 primary and 2 lower. I know that it is probably unrealistic to expect more than 70g from a single auto grown indoors. Nevertheless my gut tells me this baby could achieve at least 100g, perhaps as much as 150g. The next few weeks will determine that, but given where we were in week 3 I will be grateful for any yield of quality bud. I have dropped the lights down to 18/6 from 'tonight' onwards. I really have no idea how long we have left for Karen. According the the "brochure" she flowers for 7-8 weeks, with a total crop time of 9 weeks. The problem is I don't know what a total crop time is? Does that mean from seed to finish? If so Karen is clearly not going to be anywhere near that timescale.I am going to go ahead an assume that, for my plant anyway, the first 4 weeks were veg weeks. I think it is fair to count week 5 and 6 as flowering because pistils were popping out very early in week 5 if not before. So that makes this week four of flowering. I am going to assume 8 weeks rather than 7, so I think we have another 4 full weeks give or take a week. On that basis I am expect harvest week to be around week 12 or so. I am not fixed on this though, I am determined not to harvest this girl early. Day 55: Photos taken 00:00 9/3/23 Strong 24h of veg growth as predicted. Day 56: Existing leaves continue to swell. Stretch appears to be slowing. I've taken so many media this week that I cannot scroll down far enough to select a recent thumbnail. Probably Karen's biggest week in terms of changes. She is looking like she is going to impress. Height 39cm.

She responding to nutrients nicely.

Had bad but burn on my big one flushed it had it on water for last 3days will start by it on Mon again giving her a lil rest snapped a stem managed to fix it my 2 smaller ones are doing really well my other cpl are away to different tent for something different

Gracias al equipo de Divine Seeds, Marshydro y XpertNutrients sin ellos esto no seria posible. 💐🍁Fractal: La semilla de marihuana Fractal es una cepa especialmente psicodélica que Semillas Divinas desarrolló para experiencias esotéricas y místicas, meditación y creatividad. La potente y vívida Skunk#1 fue cruzada con una pegajosa Afghani Indica, y el resultado es ahora conocido como Fractal. Este exótico híbrido es resinoso, picante y productivo. La mejor opción para el cultivo comercial: un compromiso entre mayores rendimientos y maduración rápida. En interiores se espera una altura de 1,70 m, en exteriores las plantas crecen hasta 2 m. Fractal se adapta a todo tipo de entorno de cultivo: cajas de cultivo, instalaciones hidropónicas o aeropónicas, plantaciones exteriores, balcones, terrazas e invernaderos. Para un mejor rendimiento se recomienda entrenar a las plantas de Fractal para ampliar su estructura y limitar su crecimiento vertical. Usar ScroG o SoG, LST, FIM o topping. Fractal tiene una inmunidad inherente al moho y a las plagas de insectos, pero como sus colas son gruesas, proteja sus plantas del aire viciado. También durante las semanas de lluvia su plantación puede necesitar ser cubierta. Listo para la cosecha al aire libre en octubre. Grandes y densos cogollos. Los cogollos de marihuana de la variedad Fractral huelen a hachís y algo a tierra, desprenden cedro y notas afrutadas al romperse. Mida su porción con cuidado: su potencia está por encima de la media. Con Fractal experimentas un apedreamiento general que te hace sentarte o frena tu movimiento. Perfecto para pasar una noche junto a una hoguera. Es mejor consumirlo por la noche. 🚀🌻 Consigue aquí tus semillas: https://divineseeds.net/es/fractal-fem/ 💡FC6500: Eficiencia líder en el mercado: la lámpara de cultivo LED FC-E6500, que ostenta un estatus líder en el mercado, es una solución rentable con un PPE de 2,8 µmol/J y un rendimiento máximo de 2,5 g/vatio.

The trichomes are 80% milky, 10% amber and 10% clear. In the coming days, fresh water will be prepared for the last time with one Pure Ec value of 0.4 so that you can use up the last of the sewing materials for 3-4 days. I'm very excited about the end result because I have the same phenotype in another diary on Cocos :-). As always, an update comes during the harvest and the last update comes after drying 👍.

I found this strain very easy to grow and responded very well given the hot/humid weather we have here on the island. This strain held up very well to pest and mold/mildew

Привет друзья. Моей растихе сегодня 22 дня. LST технику начал делать на 19 дне. У меня не было канального вентилятора. влажность была 82% не много по листьям видно. На сегодняшний день влажность 67% В целом растения с хорошей гинеткой и очень меня радует #Smail_Seeds

Beautiful genetic, she is 4 days younger than the rest of the plants in this run and she has the same height as the rest of the ladies, beautiful stretch, the flowers are coming very nice and strong and I cannot wait to see what type of flowrs awaits me as I have never grown this genetic before however I'm starting to feel some sweet smell I don't know how she's gonna smell yet but I'm so excited, let's see how this lady perfoms! Stay tuned everybody! 💛💚❤️

Harvested week 10 Whole plant hang dry 16 days Amazing to grow biggest nugs i have ever seen, or grown in late flower! Phenomenal genetics

It's been cloudy for days but no rain right go figure ..have to try and keep those 2 cannabis off grid.. Experiment keep moving it for sun.. Then neighbor informer lol.. Im playing spy behind enemy lines ( right next door )..lol lol. Dam snitch..why other people has to watch other people is my guess

Just let thing be for the week . Still a lot of space so put 2 more of each strain in 15lt pots to fill it out.

Week 18 (30-6 tm 5-7) 30-6 Temperatuur: 31.4 graden (licht aan) 22.5 graden (licht uit) Luchtvochtigheid: 69% (hoogste) 50% (laagste) Ik heb de trichomen bekeken en heb besloten haar nog een dagje langer laten staan. Watergift: Geen. 1-7 Vandaag heb ik de trichomen opnieuw bekeken en die zien er goed uit! Veel cloudy en best wel wat amber. Ik hou echt van deze trichome foto's, echt mind blowing hoe dat er uit ziet! Dus vandaag gaat de schaar er in! 2-7 Ik heb besloten om een wet trim te doen zodat als ze droog is ze gelijk in de cure pot kan. Geloof het of niet, maar ik ben wel 12 uur lang bezig geweest om alles te knippen 😅 Op 1-7 ben ik in de middag begonnen en in de vroege ochtend van 2-7 was ik klaar. Het natte gewicht van de buds is 283 gram, en het natte gewicht van de trim is 61 gram. Ik ben nu al super tevreden met het gewicht! Dit is meer dan het dubbele aan gewicht vergeleken met mijn eerste grow. De buds zien er ook echt mooi uit. Ik schat dat het tussen de 50 en 75 gram droog gaat zijn. Ik ben benieuwd, nu een paar dagen drogen! Droogtent: Temperatuur: 23.4 graden (hoogste) 21.2 graden (laagste) Luchtvochtigheid: 59% (hoogste) 42% (laagste) 3-7 Droogtent: Temperatuur: 23.2 graden (hoogste) 21.5 graden (laagste) Luchtvochtigheid: 50% (hoogste) 41% (laagste) 4-7 Droogtent: Temperatuur: 23.1 graden (hoogste) 22.1 graden (laagste) Luchtvochtigheid: 53% (hoogste) 46% (laagste) 5-7 Na 3 dagen is ze droog genoeg om te curen. Wel heb ik iets te lang gewacht want de LV in de jar geeft nu 57% aan. Ik hoop dat dit over een dag wat om hoog gaat. Nu een paar weken curen en dan kom ik met de rook verslag 😁 Ik zal binnenkort ook even berekenen wat de gram per watt is, aangezien ik de lamp niet de gehele grow op 100% had staan. Het droge gewicht van de buds is precies 75 gram, en het droge gewicht van de trim is 19 gram. Samen maakt dat 94 gram! (De trim gebruik ik om een CBD cake of bubble hasj te maken) Ik wil iedereen bedanken voor het volgen van dit avontuur! Tot de volgende keer!

Greeeeeat week! Dynomyco has truly helped this Girly to get off to an amazing start and gave her the force to gain thick stems and more branches! It could also be the addition of Co2 in the grow area! I also give her a diluted foliar feed of formulex as she goes through the day as I have a very low humidity for that week but I can bring it up now as I don’t need it so low in my home! (Was drying other plants)

Ich bin recht zufrieden mit der Entwicklung, größenmäßig sind nur ein paar cm dazu gekommen aber die Blüten machen sich, ganz OK. ich werde aber langsam ungeduldig und fiebere der Ernte entgegen. Das Wetter bleibt wechselhaft bis schlecht! So langsam bessert sich das Wetter. Leider habe ich einen massiven Befall von Trauermücken, Nematoden sind auf dem Weg. Der Sommer ist nach Deutschland zurück gekehrt und das freut nicht nur mich sondern auch die Ladys😎

🌈💐🍬🌈💐🍬🌈💐🍬🌈💐🍬🌈 Hi and welcome to another grow again from Kannabia we are talking about my second attempt at the strain Runtz Auto it's going to be a single plant diary and I'll be LSTing HSTing topping and pruning like last time. Only difference is that I’ll be trying a different nutrient schedule this time to try and avoid pH fluctuations as much as possible as the last pheno seemed a bit sensitive on pH issues, so I’ll be keeping it more simple but maybe at a higher dose let’s see what she wants. Thank you Kannabia for the chance to try out your awesome seeds 🙏🏻❤️ 🌈💐🍬🌈💐🍬🌈💐🍬🌈💐🍬🌈 💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭 ❗Events"&thoughts worth noting❗ 💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭 23.10.24(GW)(morning)The little lady popped her head above ground. 23.10.24(VW1)(afternoon)Soaked her with (*1) again, I really hope I won’t burn her, what I’m doing is not advisable but I’m a greedy man I guess, it’s all or nothing 😉 27.10.24(VW1) Add 10ml TriPartMicro to (*1) and use at next feed. 30.10.24(VW2) in the clip I’m just strengthening the main stem for her future training and not just being mean😉 02.11.24(VW2) Add another 10ml of TriPartMicro and get it to 20ml and let’s see how she reacts, use on next feed✅. 05.11.24(VW2) Topp her and prune nodes not needed and start training preparations, add clay pellets up to the first node from the bottom that I’ll keep (if possible of course)📸✅. *part of training preparation👇🏻 05.11.24(VW2) Add another 10ml of TriPartMicro and get it to 30ml and let’s see how she reacts, use on next feed✅. 08.11.24(VW3) noticed the leafs being too green nearing slight N toxicity so I’ll feed with (*1) at 50% strength the next two feeds observe and act accordingly. 09.11.24(VW3)Did first LST session and then fed her(📸) 13.11.24(VW4) She seems to be happy with nutes at 50% strength so I’ll keep it that way for another few days observe and give her a regular 100% strength feed hopefully timed right with the flowering stretch. 16.11.24(VW4) Pruned excess bud sites and defoliated (📸) 20.11.24(VW5) LST until stretch is over and maybe do one last pruning of excess bud sites just as the first bunch of pistils/buds appear. 23.11.24(VW5) Did my last major HST & LST session✅, end of the week I'm switching the diary to flowering as first pistils are visible and I'll keep on doing a light LST until harvest, might do a last pruning session though maybe middle or end of next week. 27.11.25(FW1) Did a defoliation and LST session✅📸. Noticed some leafs with brown spots📸so she seems to need a bit more PK so I dropped TriPartMicro to 20ml from 30ml and increased GreenBuzzBloom to 40ml from 30ml✅. 02.12.24(FW1) Added 20ml TriPartBloom. 💭❗💭 ❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭❗💭 🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼 🌼Day to day tasks & actions🌼 🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼 18.12.24(FW4) No feed no water 19.12.24(FW4) fed with (*1) 5l 20.12.24(FW4) No feed no water 21.12.24(FW4) fed with (*1) 5l 22.12.24(FW4) No feed no water 23.12.24(FW4) No feed no water 24.12.24(FW4) No feed no water 🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼🐝🌼 🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶 💦Nutrients in 30l(*1) 💦 🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶 💦TriPartMicro: 10ml*20ml*30ml*20ml 🍶TriPartBloom: 0ml *20ml 💦 Fermented🌿juice:0ml 🍶GreenBuzzBloom: 30ml*40ml 💦Cal-Mag: 60ml 🍶buxXtrade citric acid Ph- 💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦🍶💦 ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️Tools & equipment ✂️ ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ ✂️➡️2xMarsHydroSP3000 ⚙️➡️MarsHydro150mmVentilatorACF ✂️➡️Trotec (big) dehumidifier ⚙️➡️Small no name dehumidifier ✂️➡️Kebab stainless skewers 3 (LST) ⚙️➡️wire+roast beefskewers(LST) ✂️➡️trimming scissors.(HST) ⚙️➡️Waterproof vacuum cleaner for ✂️spills. ⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️✂️⚙️ 🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭 🍦RUNTZ AUTO KANNABIA 🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬 🌈Seed:Auto Zkittlez&Gelato😋. 🍭Effect: Balanced 🍦THC: 20 %. 🍬Features: For beginners 🌈Flavor: Earthy, Floral, Sweet 🍭Complete cycle: 70 days. 🍦Average height: 100. 🍬Yield: 450-500 gr/m2. 🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈🍭🍦🍬🌈,

Wow its good i pruned all the fan leaves at flip. Hit it cytokinins week ago to stop stretch both low ppm drench and foliar later. Lucky i still have room to shorten light hanger to raise lights. Keeping it 13/11 but now I'll introduce far red led initiator now before dark perdiod. Then 12 12 week 4 and add UV cfl.

Comeing along. Not shown any signs of over or under fed they have handled the heat not too bad been up to 30c although not for long. Starting to fatten up now also. Smells so nice
