Day 29 - Kicking off the start of week 5 and she’s definitely starting to flower. Will be starting the week 5 foxfarm feeding schedule as soo as she’s dried up. Ready to watch her start taking off and filling in. Have really had no issues or deficiencies so far. Can’t say enough about FastBuds and their genetics. Day 30 - Gave her the first feeding of the week today and added a little bit of molasses to the feed, given to me as a tip, so we’ll see how it does. She’s definitely starting to stretch and love the structure of this one so far. She tends to droop a bit right after watering but perks back up within an hour or so. Day 31 - Held off on giving any water today, still felt like she had enough to get her through another day. Will give her plain pH’d water tomorrow. She’s stretched almost an inch overnight and I think this is one of my best looking grows so far. Will keep my fingers crossed things continue to go and smoothly as they have so far. Day 32 - Gave the girl some fresh pH’d water tonight and she’s still looking healthy. Not much else going on with her right now. Day 33 - Grew an inch overnight but went ahead a raised the tie downs on most of the branches and tied her down a bit more to open her up for more light. Hopefully she responds well. Shall see tomorrow. No feed or water today, letting her dry out a bit more. Day 34 - She’s definitely stretching quite a bit every day, an inch over the last 24 hours. Gave her the second and final feed of the week and will give her just water until the start of week 6. Day 35 - End of week 5 and just took her out to get a few pics and get her measured. She grew another half an inch overnight. She’s definitely one of my best grows so far. She definitely looks bigger, healthier and further along than the green crack was at this point.

I didn’t expect this strain to show this much color looks amazing almost done.

Often, marijuana growers who have their plants in indoor grow tents or rooms with artificial lighting, take into account parameters such as temperature and relative humidity to maximize plants growth and bloom, thus obtaining abundant harvest with top quality flowers. As we will see later, these factors affect different processes of the plant, such as transpiration or nutrient uptake. However, we usually forget about another important factor that is related to the aforementioned ones: vapor pressure deficit or VPD. Broadly speaking, VPD is the difference between the amount of water vapor that the atmosphere is able to retain (which depends on temperature) and the amount of water vapor contained in it (relative humidity). It is usually measured in kilopascals (kPa). Providing our plants with a correct relationship between temperature and relative moisture will keep us on the right VPD parameters, increasing the plant’s activity and thus improving its growth and showing its full potential during the flowering phase. The ideal would be to adjust both parameters (temperature and humidity) to get the best possible VPD value, so that the development of plants will be amazing.In the chart above you can see the right temperature and moisture values to maximize the development of cannabis plants. The green zone shows you optimal values of VPD, in which it would be ideal to maintain the environment. The orange zone shows correct values, in which plants should not have problems to develop normally. However, red areas show values in which your plants will be very far from hit their full potential, since the relation between temperature and moisture is not optimal. With relatively high values of VPD (between 5 and 12) plants tend to open their stomata and release a considerable amount of water vapor into the environment (increasing their transpiration). This increase in transpiration results in an increase in the plant’s photosynthetic activity, which will need more nutrients and will improve its overall growth, both during growth and bloom. The best range is between 7.5 and 10.5, which we have marked in green. However, we must be careful that VPD is not too high (dark red zone) since the plant would close its stomata to avoid releasing too much water vapor to the environment, which would result in fast dehydration due to excessive transpiration. On the other hand, if VPD is too low (light red zone), the plant will also close its stomata for not releasing more water into the atmosphere, which in this case would be already saturated (it would have reached the maximum water retention capacity in a specific temperature). In this way, reducing transpiration will also reduce photosynthesis, which has a direct impact on the plant’s development and yield. That way, VPD is essential when it comes to offer the best conditions for the development of plants, also to understand its water requirements according to the nutrients used and thus adjust them correctly to meet the grower’s expectations. N/B: SAY NO TO DRUGS -[Day 90] The plants are getting massive, not a lot of space left in the room, each pictures are token back against the wall or on top of a chair. The Super Skunk shall be ready first , the trichomes are visible without using a microscope, the scent is like an amazing candy floss coated with Skunk pee 😅Boerejongens quality @Home 😊 -[Day 93] Switching Buld Lumatek 90000 Lumens 1000PAR to SuperPlant Super Red 85000 Lumens 2000K 1498nm Lightening under the 1500nm wavelength (2000K) just between the NIR and the Microwave length, can't stand in the room too long without getting tears and shining eyes. Buds shall start to blowup like pineapples, increasing yield. -[Day 98] Everything is getting frosty. Starting to decrease RH . -[Day 103] Today the Y Griega started to push on her terpenes, believe it or not that plant smell stronger than the 6 giants Skunks (the Skunk strain is already a very strong smelling plant), she smell like a coffeeshop front door, the fragrance is absolutely amazing and fantastic, I will definitely grow a full crop of that strain ! -[Day 105] 42 days of Blooming folks ! It's getting serious now 😄 If it can helps you to realize, each plants gots 4 side and a middle, each sides gots 4-6 buds and there's 5-6 buds in the middle, there's 11 plants of 1,60m/5.25ft, how many buds does it makes ?? The correct answer will win 1 like 😅😂😅😂 -[Day 106] WEEK 7 of flowering, the end is close my friends, I'm trying to give you the best shots as possible, I wish I'd could share a good smoke from this crop with you guys ....😉 -[Day 113] WEEK 8 starting, every beginning has an end, this is where the Fall is gonna start. -[Day 115] LADY'S AND GENTLEMEN !!!

Plants are fading slowly and naturally, I won't need to flush. Checking the trichomes every 4 days, the crop will probably need another 2-3 weeks. All plants are running on water now till the end. Buds are ripening, the smell has turn into a kind of roasted coffee beans with Skunk pee and cotton candy. -[Day 122] Milky tric's spotted on Blueberry after 59 days of blooming -[Day 123] 60 Days of blooming, gonna flush them all

Week 4 day 2 since i start germination, and i think they are evolving quite ok. CS1 is for now the queen in all aspects, shes the stronger, the most beautiful formation with no problems what so ever , CS2 is following and CS 3 also but with mutant leaves all over her, i will however keep giving her love and dedication, mb in the end she compensate with some beautiful flowers 🤞 As for the Tropicannas, TP2 its an amazing girl, no mutations and growing as it should, TP1 is recovering fast from her accident 😅🤞 and she is on the way to become a strong and beautiful girl. They are adapting super well to the new ligth 😅 one less solution to find 👌 Day 27 veg And I’ve been kind off busy, sorry i miss 2 days of updates, but between this 5 girls, my veg room and harvesting my flower run, time only stretches so much since one still have a life beyond the love gardens 😅 but non or less here we are and they look fantastic 🤩😆 all showing strong genetics and i thing i will have different phenotypes on the Chocolate department lets see😁 so far the strongest CS still is number one and number three still mutating her self from day one 😆 but she will take all my love till the end ( we never know ) on the Tropicana department, both looking amazing, number one completely recovered from the led accident 😅 end growing in a way t hat i start to think that she will catch up with the rest pretty soon 🤞TP2 is now the tallest plant of them all With 16cm high 👏 Day 28 veg No updates , all going as it should 😅🤞 Little battle between Topicanna Poisen from @sweetseeds vs Chocolate Skunk from @00Seeds (just for fun) TP = Tropicana Poison CS = Chocolate Skunk All i grow is medecine for myself, nothing to sell, dont even ask !!!! Stay safe and do it with love for the love ❤️ 🙏

Stretching well at day 14, will only do a little defoliation on day 21 and then it’s pretty much on auto pilate. Excited for the terps on this one

pungent odour, full of ditricomas, even the sugar leaves, I think it is a genetic that is well suited to concentrates or extractions

Kept an eye on her and basically tried to expose as many nodes and bud sites to as much light exposure as possible. The temperature is a bit cold with a cold wind. She seems to still be growing well albeit a bit on the slow side. Buds are forming with trichomes already visible.

Trying to limit the stretch. Not worried about height as much as width. I might remove plant clips once stretch slows. Full AN run. Adding big bud (removing ignitor). Running candy and tasty next week. Bud factor X week 3

🍪’s 👃🏿 on her st8 rotten FRUIT CANDY 🤢🤮🍍🍒🍓🍊🍋🍐🍎🍏🍬

Diese Woche war für die Pflanzen eine große Belastung, da sie in den Keller umgezogen sind. In der Wohnung wurde es einfach zu warm. Die Box hat einen Zuluftschlauch bekommen, sodass immer Frischluft von außen kommt. Die Abluft wird auch nach außen abgeführt. Der Keller wird zusätzlich mit einem Amazon Badezimmerlüfter belüftet. Die Luftfeuchtigkeit konnte somit im Durchschnitt auf 60 Prozent gesenkt werden. Bei Regen hatte ich auch schon Höchstwerte von 82 Prozent in der Box. Dazu habe ich einen zusätzlichen Handylüfter in der Box installiert, der 40 Watt hat und für gute Belüftung sorgt. Zusätzlich baue ich mir nächste Woche ein Belüftungssystem mit KG-Rohren. Ich nehme zwei Stück und installiere sie an der Zuluft der Box. Dann werden sie am Rand der Box platziert und Löcher rein gebohrt, um die Pflanzen von unten zu belüften. Die Rohre kommen auf die ganze Fläche von 1,5 Metern. Was den Dünger betrifft, kann ich nur sagen, ich bin sehr zufrieden. Die Buds werden langsam echt fett. Die Pflanzen weisen keine Mängel auf, bis auf Calzium-Magnesium, das zusätzlich über das Gießwasser eingebracht wird. Apropos Gießwasser: Ich habe mir Tropfer und ein 100-l-Autotop-Flexi-Tank bestellt. Dazu ausführlicher Bericht nächste Woche, so wie zu der ab und zu Luft. Die Lampen laufen mittlerweile auf 100 Prozent. Die Titan sind mittlerweile im Schnitt 75 cm groß, so wie die Cosmos. Diese Pflanze ist sehr durstig und bekommt mehr Wasser als die anderen und ist im Umfang deutlich größer als die Titan und Epsilon. Die Epsilon sind ca. 55 cm im Durchschnitt, haben aber die dicksten Buds. Wichtigste Punkte: - Pflanzen in den Keller umgezogen wegen zu hoher Temperaturen in der Wohnung - Belüftungssystem installiert (Zuluft, Abluft, Badlüfter, zusätzlicher Lüfter in der Box) - Luftfeuchtigkeit im Durchschnitt auf 60% gesenkt - Neues Belüftungssystem mit KG-Rohren geplant - Dünger zufriedenstellend, Buds werden größer - Calzium-Magnesium-Mangel, wird über Gießwasser ausgeglichen - Neue Bewässerung (Tropfer, Flexi-Tank) bestellt - Lampen auf 100% - Titan und Cosmos ca. 75 cm, Cosmos durstiger - Epsilon ca. 55 cm, dickste Buds !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!es fehlen noch Bilder Nachtrag kommt !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ein danke geht raus an meine Freundin sie Übernimmt Bilder und Videos.

Plants exploded this week once put into the Scrog. All tops topped once this week to help promote all tops below the main canopy to catch up with the rest.

Day 51 - Ladies are stretching sooo much, still can't believe I'm growing plants this big! Day 53 - Introduced Big Bud Coco yesterday and raised Voodo Juice, Tarantula and Bud Candy at 1,5ml/L. I'm going to stop with the first two at day 56, the plants are big enough for my closet 😅 Stay safe and keep growing 🙏🏼🌱✌️🏼

Not a fan , small buds , vigorous growth low yield , plant weighed 2kgs , yielded 103 g .

June 23, 2024 This week we focus on watering. There really isn't much else to do. The plants are all stacking buds and getting fat. I cleaned out all the reservoirs out and started a fresh dose of nutrients. Sour Diesel A is definitely light. I really don't understand this plant. She's thirsty, drinking just as much as the rest of not a little bit more than B. I may have to top feed her tomorrow with a half gallon of recharge. Other than that, her buds are looking pretty good and super frosty. Sour Diesel B looks like she has about 2 weeks left to go. Her pistils are almost all orange on the top while the lowers are still white. I checked the trichomes just for giggles and of course it's not done yet, but sooner than the rest of the plants. Sour Diesel C had some what looks like light burn without any other signs. A friend of mine suggested it could be some sort of fungus. I sprayed her down with some Defender 4. Her buds are STACKED. She has super long colas compared to the overall size of her. Sour Diesel D is drinking the most and was completely bone dry this morning. However, she's not light. So a cleaning and refill. We will just let her do her thing. Huge main cola. Everything else is smaller. The lights aren't changing. So I have a feeling that these plants ended up small like they are due to the limited space they had during Veg. Being autoflowers, they really didn't have room to stretch out. My next run will be much better. I won't be working with 6 plants in one tent. All this has to do with the lighting also. They just didn't get enough of what they needed at first, so smaller plants I get. The environment looks alright. The AC kicked on early today and the humidity in the tent dropped down to 54%. The temp is at 75°. Near perfect temp. The heat wave is gone now, so I should be able to control the humidity more with the AC kicking on earlier. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.4° RH: 58.3% VPD: 1.22 kPa June 24, 2024 Not much going on today. I forgot to check Sour Diesel A for her weight. I'll check later today. However, she should be fine. No watering today nor pics. Sour Diesel A looks really good. Tons of frost and her buds are swelling up nicely. Sour Diesel B looks really good. I'm sending daily pics of the trichomes to a friend so we can figure out about when she will be ready for harvest. I'm thinking 2 weeks. He thinks more. But neither of us can tell. He's not here, so he can't see what I see, and I always get hung up around now. Sour Diesel C seems to have some sort of issue. I'm not really sure what, but the leaves are slightly droopy and I keep getting these small burn dots on a leaf or two. As I said yesterday, it could be a fungus. I'll spray her down again with Defender 4 tomorrow. Sour Diesel D has this super fat main cola. Instead of stretching up and stacking up, she has stayed short and I'm her buds are stacking outward. The main top has 3 buds that make up the tip. Very cool. She's gonna be a small yield, but one massive cola. Can't complain about that. The lighting is, as always, the same. No changes whatsoever ever. The supplemental lighting is doing something? I don't really know. I really want to install them horizontally. I just feel it will have much better coverage vs the vertical position they are currently in. I might do that tomorrow when the plants are out of the tent. The environment is still not good. 62% humidity and 78°. I need to get that temp down. And of course the humidity needs to calm down as well. It should be fine by this afternoon. Or like yesterday, late morning. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.6° RH: 59.1% VPD: 1.17 kPa June 25, 2024 Picture Day! Not a lot to do today. Water is fine. Nothing really else. Sour Diesel A is super frosty with nice bud production. She is pretty well stacked and has bud throughout the plant. Let's watch her swell up and start folding over on itself. Surprisingly, she retained some of the weight from that top feeding next week. I'll keep a close eye on the weight and moisture level. Sour Diesel B is just as frosty as A, but has significantly larger buds. I'm hoping it's a sign for what's to come with the other plants. Sour Diesel C is super stacked. She's starting to swell nicely and her frost is amazing. She is also super potent. It's wonderful. Sour Diesel D needed a couple leaves cut off. Her main cola is absolutely massive. She smells great and she is swelling quite nicely. Lighting is the same. I'm not seeing any issues whatsoever with the supplemental lights and the main light. No light burn. Lots of frost. It just shows we are on the right track. Yesterday z the AC kicked on super early. The humidity was down to 52% for most of the day. I'm hoping it happens today as well. Currently the humidity is around 60%. The temp is a bit high at 77°, but the AC will knock that right down. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.9° RH: 58.1% VPD: 1.21 kPa June 26, 2024 Not much going on today. No watering no pics, just the daily and a quick update for the plants. Btw, the scent is getting overwhelming. What a nice smell. Sour Diesel A looks great! She has bright orange pistils that have already curled up into the buds. Not on the bottoms though. But there is still a good 3 weeks left to go. Buds are still swelling pretty well. Sour Diesel B is super frosty and super fat. She may be the smallest in the group, but her buds are huge. Her pistils are orange up top and still white on bottom. Even the orange ones are still sticking straight up. I think she has another 2.5 weeks left, but I'm not so sure anymore. She is showing signs of finishing up, but then she also has signs she isn't even ose to being done. We shall see. Sour Diesel C is looking absolutely beautiful. Being the largest of the group, I have high expectations and I don't think I'll be disappointed. She has stacks galore. Tons of frost and swelling buds. From what I understand about the Sour Diesel strain is that it has elongated buds, so the cola may look skinny and tall. I guess we will find out soon enough. Sour Diesel D is less disappointing now that I took a feel of the main cola. Solid. Super solid. And she's definitely nowhere near finished up. It's still kind of early for her so she has plenty of time to swell up like a foot ball. Lighting is the same. Honestly, I don't know why I still report on it, but it is one of the most important things in the grow space. Anyway, it's the same. Still not seeing any signs of stress from any of the plants. I forgot to install the support bars yesterday, so I'll try to remember to install them tomorrow and move the supplemental lights horizontally. The environment I can say is looking much better. The humidity is high in the morning, but then it drops down to around 52% for the rest of the day. The temp is back under control, so we are sitting happily at 75°. Grow System Environment: Temp: 74.9° RH: 59.0% VPD: 1.18 kPa June 27, 2024 Picture Day! A bit to do today. Watering Day as well. Sour Diesel A got a half gallon top feed with Recharge today. I also topped off her reservoir which was only about 3/4 empty. The rest went into the top with the half gallon. She was really light and not drinking. She seems to have a lot of dry pockets and it took a bit to get them moist again. It worked. I had a bit of runoff from the dry pockets, but it's fine now. Sour Diesel B looks great. Huge fat buds all over. She didn't need a top feeding as she is drinking just the right amount. Sour Diesel C is looking great. Her buds are elongated like the classic Sour Diesel. And they are fattening up even more. I can't wait to see the end result. Sour Diesel D has a massive cola that takes up about a quarter of her main stem. The side branches also have nice big nugs on them. Looking forward to the outcome. The aroma coming from these ladies is strong and pungent. Sour and gassy loving this run so far. The lights are all the same. I forgot again to install the support bars. I'll try to remember next time I pull the plants out again. The environment is back to 60% this morning, but the temp is fine. A little high, but in range. It will all even out later today. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.0° RH: 58.2% VPD: 1.21 kPa June 28,2024 Nothing going on today. My phone screen died and I can't get the one picture off it from this morning. no watering today. Sour Diesel A looks great, but her buds aren't as big as they should be by now. She's still super frosty and an all around happy plant. Sour Diesel B looks wonderful with her fat buds all over. Her aroma is super strong. Her branches are really stiff as well. Of the 4, she seems to be the most promising for yield. but she is also the shortest of the 4. we shall see how things go with her. Sour Diesel C also has small buds for her age. I'm really not sure what happened here, but this is the second time in a row. It happened with my Tropicana Cookies as well. but that was because of incorrect nutrients, I think. Maybe. Now that it happened again and I didn't mess up the nutrients, it has to be something else. The lighting shouldn't be a problem either. I have that dialed in. The only issue I have run into that's the same with both runs is the environment. The humidity has been really high throughout the flowering stage and could be the issue. However, lately it has been dropping down to a reasonable level, but that's not until the afternoon. Sour Diesel D is just a stick with a huge cola on it. She only has 6 side branches, but they have big colas as well. however, one issue is how leafy she is. Her main cola has extremely deep leaves into the cola itself. trimming may be a bit of a pain, but that cola should be worth the effort. Lighting hasn't changed and won't change until the last week of flower... if I change it at all. The environment is its now normal high humidity in the mornings and lower humidity in the afternoon. I hope it's fine in the long run. only a few more weeks left and we are done. Let's hope we don't end poorly. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75* RH: 59% VPD: 1.21 kPa June 29, 2024 Picture Day! Last day of the week. I'd like to reflect on things we have noticed this week. Small buds, lights are on point, environment is wrong in the morning and much better in the afternoon. Sour Diesel A has kept her weight for the most part from the top feeding. Her reservoir is also draining at a good pace. Her pistils are shriveling into the buds now, so it looks super pretty. Her frost made her look like she has light burn. It's not. Don't worry. Buds look super dense and are covering the branches all around. However, they are still smaller than they should be. Sour Diesel B looks really nice. Her pistils are not shriveling up yet. I can't wait to see that happen. Then we will be on the right track for some dank bud. Sour Diesel C is now the winner of most water intake for this round. She will definitely need another watering tomorrow and she hasn't lost any weight from the top feeding. Looking great. Small compact buds. The look really dense. I wish they were bigger, but on the plus side, they have a ton of frosty goodness on them. Buds from top to near bottom of the plant. Sour Diesel D is doing her thing. Swelling more and more. Packing on weight and getting ready for the end of flower. She hasn't had much to drink and is getting light. I'll keep an eye on her tomorrow and maybe top feed some of her reservoir. The lighting is still the same and won't change next week. I've also decided to just leave the light bars in their vertical position. Next run, I'll have the bars installed. The environment is a mess today. It's 84% outside and 75°. It's nasty out. And of course it's reflecting in the tent. High humidity, temp is fine though. But really high humidity. Close to 70% for now. Not good at all. Grow System Environment: Temp: 75.3° RH: 57.6% VPD: 1.23 kPa

This week i split the stem on my purple lemonade auto to see if it gets bigger yield and bigger buds i will soon see the purple only has about three weeks to go the gorilla glue auto has along way to go but its flowering hard and fast

Lost 2 batches, 15 brave soldiers to damping off before I decided to toss the soil I was using and scrubbing the growboxes from top to bottom with isopropyl alcohol solution. Only Northern Lights survived from the original gangsters and she was stunted for quite a while for new kids on the block to catch up. Fucked up pretty much everything in germination/vegetation phase.. *bad* pH fluctuations (my tap is like 8-9 and didn't have any pH down at the time.) Fungus Gnats, N Toxicity.. u name it. Time was also running short before summer heat kicks in and the ambient temperatures would be too hot to handle even without the leds running so I had to flip 'em as soon as I thought they would be able to fill the 120x90 space nicely. Enjoy the timelapse. Been fun learning how to photograph/videoedit better but since I ruined the grow right from the beginning haven't put too much effort on this. Shooting w/ GoPro 10 Black and sometimes w/ an old rugged Canon 550D with broken ass 18-55mm kit lens (busted AF and some of the lenses inside might be loose since it rattles a bit shaking lightly and focuses badly even with very small aperture.)

Plant at the front #3 has had slowed growth but buds are filling out pretty well now, pretty sure she is a Orange sherbet. Back 2 are on week 3 day 17!!! & Are going Awesome, buds stacking up & down every branch! Going to get some really good Cola's of them! They are loving the 730watts!’ of light, back left plant looks like a Tropicana Cookies, going to do some defoliation on her & tie branches down a bit to open up middle of plant to allow more light & air to lower bud sites.
