This week was good for the Cream auto. I performed some defoliation and undid the LST for a couple days as well as raised the lights to 24" to induce some stretching. I did selectively begin LST on the Cream towards the end of week 5. She has been getting 1/4 strength flower nutes and recieved a fresh top dressing of hot soil coco coir mix; as her roots were surfacing. So far so good. Atleast 20 budsites are visible and she has responded well to all the training and is coming into her stretch period. Now all we are waiting on is them white pistols to start shooting at the budsites. Hopefully week 6 will entail this! She should be at about half of her life span at this point. 4-5 weeks more of flower is expected before harvest.

Still having major problems with fungus gnats and the populations have exploded! So I ended up doing a drench of hydrogen peroxide to kill all the eggs on contact that where in the top inch or so of the pots. Also on the pots that where worse I added sand to the top just as an extra precaution. I added my second and final layer of trellis. I mostly use the trellis for support and for spreading out the canopy and opening up the lower bud sites to the light. We can see the bud sites are starting to set and are looking pretty great for 2 weeks of flower!

My phone died a couple weeks ago so i couldn’t update my diary or take any pictures.. anyways i’m back haha

the girls gain 1cm a day :) they are still quite vigorous, quite green; I expect another week of stretch before they concentrate on the buds. maximum dose of alga bloom, green sensation and sugar royal. my whole tent is occupied by the canopy; would a little defoliation be necessary? i'll take any advice :) One small thing: look at the 2 last pics, it looks like a "twin head", I've never seen that before EDIT : finally defoliated them next morning (see last pic), they now breathe again :) EDIT 2 : a small research on web & i got my response : "twin head" = polyploïd cannabis

So, bubba diagonal has the sweetest smell, almost like a dank og smoothie probably inherited from the purple punch and the true og, Guava cake is the most "weed" smelling like pure good sativa funky ganja, not very tangy but a little more on the cookies side, and the kmintz... probably my favourite, she has just a strong mint-fruit smell. Its a sweet and fresh zkittlish-fruity funk with a slight dank earth background, and the smell is sweet and at the same time slightly "overpowering" in your nose, almost like its rotten sweet fruit. Cant wait to smoke them. Here are some pics from the last week of flowering guys, can't wait! Smells like heaven😍 supersoil + compost tea is the bomb!!! #teamorganic

Siamo alla fine i tricomi diventano ambrati ancora qualche giorno val taglio

Day 42-49 (Day 42) Just watered today but couldn’t go until runoff because I didn’t have enough RO. I forgot to add the probiotic too. Nonetheless, everything is starting to recover from those weird deficiencies and is looking super healthy. Plants are really bushing out now too. I had to top the zkittlez and BBB#3 again as they are just getting too big. Nothing is definitively showing sex yet but I’m seeing clues. Shouldn’t be long now. If I get 4 females or less I will use 10gal pots, 5-7 fem 5gal pots and 8-12 3gal pots. I need to stop overwatering. Even though it doesn’t look too overwatered, it is much better to water a little bit each day at lights on. This will help keep the humidity down as well as deliver optimal oxygen to the roots speeding up plant growth considerably. (Day 45) Gave an EM1 spray down today. The beneficial bacteria is said to overpopulate surfaces so powdery mildew and septoria can’t form. Something seems to be really working as I haven’t seen any yet. (Day 47) I sealed up the tent and am running both dehumidifiers and it’s keeping the RH around a safe 70% night and day which is right on track with VPD. Plants are all looking super healthy. Deficiencies have pretty much all cleared up. Cold nights I’m running 600w and warmer nights I’ll run 400w. I was asking around Instagram about white ash/good burn and a few different people assured me it has to do with mineral content of the soil. I was told the three best products for clean ash is glacial rock dust/basalt, oyster shell flour and langbeinite. I already have langbeinite so I’ll grab the other amendments today and top dress. I grabbed the amendments and also got some Destiny Organics dark matter super soil, coco and some beneficial nematodes. Top dressed each amendment except langbeinite and mulched in some coco coir. (Day 48) My shelf came in today and I think it may be to big for the 4x4 tent. Each square is 12”, not the 11.8” advertised. I could wipe down my flower room and set it up in there which would give my plants a good adjustment to the new lights before I flip. Or I could set it up in the veg tent but that seems like a huge hassle as the need to be moved and flipped soon anyway. I wish they would show sex already so I can toss out the plants I’m not keeping. For flower I am considering starting over fresh with the new Destiny soil and coco mixed with some amendments. I’m concerned that my current mix might be too hot. I could also dilute it with the Destiny/coco mix. Those little bulb mites that came in with the worm castings are a little concerning as well. Some say they are just beneficial composters aka “worm bin mites” and others are telling me they’re predatory bulb mites which destroy crops like garlic. I’m leaning towards beneficial composters but in another grow I watched them devour a seedling before it sprouted. Gotta check the current roots but the plants aren’t quite ready to be transplanted. (Day 49) Got everything in the flower tent wiped down and sprayed with alcohol then EM1 few hours later. Got the shelf set up and got all my temp controls set up and running. I put the controllers outside the tent this time and will patch any light leaks. Gave a lite compost tea at 830ppm and a velokelp foliar spray at 6ml/L. This will be the last veg feeding before I transplant into their final containers on the 31st. BCTG#2 is a confirmed male and I pulled him. No one else is showing definitively. Roots looked super healthy with very few mites but I’m not 100% convinced they’re all clean. I saw a few mites on leaves today too. Saw a bit of droop after the move but they all look happy just a few hours later. Took a few clones from some sucker branches on a few of the blackberries.

Finally after 82 days the trichomes looked just as I like them so I sent her into 3 days of darkness before I cut her. She's now hanging in the tent and drying in between 17...18°C / 62...64°F and 55% RH. The climate outside is just perfect at the moment so I can keep the temperatures in my grow room low, simply by keeping the window slightly open. I think a little bit more than a week will do - I'll keep you updated ;-)

Switched to an ph perfect sensi a few weeks ago forgot to change in diary.Did some defoliation this week mostly just the bottoms will do one more just to let air and light get through pistils are coming out and they are looking healthy

2nd week flushing, buds are stil growing. Next week there will be very strong sun, maybe enough to get this plant finished.

Today They have pop in my new room is completely ready for a New girls season I am going to use a rosin press for a large quantity off all the flowers That we produce And I will be reviewing that brand ones it arrive

Hello there and welcome to week 12, or the beginning of it anyway. Week 11 is now complete so please check that out! We start the week with 5l fertigation and some nice photos. Now that Bertha is gone the tent smells Karenish. See you tomorrow! Day 78: Added several more carnivorous plants to the budding collection. Enjoy! Day 79: Fertigated 5l. She's starting to mature now. Frost developing slower, buds fattening and ripening faster. Were maybe two weeks away here. Night 80: Added tent photo and vid. Day 81 update later today. Day 81: Added a lot of media. Got a cheap digital microscope to try and get better micro shots. As you can see Karen is nowhere near yet. Day 82: Things are moving very fast, just look at the difference today. I am certain were with 2 weeks of harvest. Does anyone have advice on flushing/not watering. Fertigated 5l. Day 83: At the current rate of maturation I think the end of next week maybe be harvest time. Height 51cm Day 84: Karens smell is really strong now it washes across your face when you open the tent. End of week summary: A full week of nothing but bud swelling and maturation. I still think she needs another 2 weeks. Unfortunately my living situation has rather abruptly changed and now I have a tough choice to make: harvest/destroy or move plants. There is a strong chance I will chop Karen at the end of next week if she is ready or not.

Well uhm this week has been a trip and a half the plant doubled in size and started bleeding black and purps ! it's my first experience growing a black strain so please forgive me if I gush more than warranted. anyways, no defoliation for her, no training, no nutes as of yet, but she does have the slightest bit of nutrient burn on the leaves, it's not spread or got worse so i'm happy. Still watered her with my micro and beneficials mix and sprayed her some with my red micro and kelp foliar spray, she seems to really need and like the micro. Also she's drinking one more watering a week, that's 3 waterings a week now ! What a great grower so far, i wouldn t be surprised if I'm chopping her down in 3 to 4 weeks ! thanks for dropping by and please do drop me a message or a suggestion if you have any...

Hola a todos ,ya desde la semana pasada que vengo regando solo con agua porque no falta mucho para el corte aproximadamente 10 días. Los cogollos no han engordado como lo que esperaba, en comparación a la misma "genética " del año pasado.Tambien he notado que el tamaño de los cogollos es menor, pero si son más compactos y más densos. Esta semana empezaron a tornarse la mayoria de los cogollos en un tono purpura, como así también algunas hojas, también indicadores de que el final ya se aproxima, a todo esto hay que sumarle el descenso de la temperatura también es un factor para que los cogollos y hojas se pongan de ese color. Así que de aquí a que llegue el día del corte solo regare con agua.

Finally my plants show me flowers. Temperature rise to 27 and good decision. because my plants growing very faster. I recommend to anyone: temperature in grow stage and first week in flower 27 Celsius

Day 23 – Morning Calm Before the Sunny Surge A calm and promising start to Day 23. This morning, the air temperature was 15°C, and although the sun hadn’t yet reached the plant, the forecast points to a bright, warm day ahead – ideal for further outdoor strengthening. To prepare the plant for a full day in the sun, I provided a fresh watering of 1.3L of clean, pH-balanced tap water. The substrate was moderately dry, and the timing felt just right to keep the root zone hydrated before peak sun hours arrive. Observations: The plant’s structure continues to impress – strong, upright growth with a confident posture. Leaf spread is wide and balanced, indicating steady internal energy and photosynthetic activity. The main stem is visibly thickening, showing natural resilience developing from daily exposure. I’ve chosen a slightly shaded spot to begin the day, allowing the plant to ease into the rising sunlight gradually, preventing thermal shock during the early stages. The full sun will arrive soon, and with it – another valuable training session under the UK sky. Step by step, the outdoor rhythm becomes natural, and this CBD Auto 20:1 continues to adapt with grace and strength. Day 24 – Thriving Under the Heat, Watered with Caution Today brought another burst of sunshine to this outdoor journey – and with it, a true test of endurance for my CBD Auto 20:1. The air temperature in direct sun rose to 40°C, pushing the plant’s limits under intense midday exposure. Despite the scorching heat, she stood tall and open, absorbing every photon with strength and grace. The leaves showed no wilting or curling, which confirms that she’s adapting well to her natural surroundings. Watering: Due to time constraints in the morning, I had no choice but to water the plant in the late afternoon, using 1.3L of clean, pH-balanced tap water. Yes – many would argue that early morning watering is ideal, but sometimes reality calls for flexibility. The substrate had cooled slightly by then, and I made sure to pour gently and evenly, avoiding any root shock from hot soil contact. Observations: Leaf colour is rich and uniform – she’s clearly photosynthesising efficiently. The top growth is vibrant and symmetrical, showing strong apical development. Stem thickness is improving, and overall plant posture feels balanced and alert. Every day is a lesson – and this one reminded me that outdoor growing is about adapting to both climate and life’s rhythms. The journey continues, and so does the strength of “Sators”. Day 26 – Dancing with the Wind, Waiting for the Right Time Today’s weather offered a different kind of challenge – a damp, chilly start with stronger gusts of wind rolling in from early morning. A light rainfall made an appearance too, and although not severe, I chose caution and brought the plant indoors to avoid unnecessary stress, especially with soil moisture still carefully balanced. Later in the day, conditions improved, and the CBD Auto 20:1 is back outdoors, soaking up the afternoon light once again. Growth update: The structure is becoming more defined, with symmetrical leaf spacing and dense apical growth. Stem integrity continues to improve, especially as the plant sways and flexes with occasional breezes – perfect natural resistance training! Colour and texture remain consistent and healthy – no signs of stress or nutrient imbalance. Still waiting… There’s a strong desire to finally leave the plant outdoors full-time, but timing is everything in organic, outdoor growing. Ideal conditions for permanent outdoor transition would be: Night temperatures consistently above 12°C No risk of heavy rain or strong wind without shelter Stable daytime highs between 18–28°C, with gentle sun exposure in the early hours We’re close – but a few more days of caution now can secure weeks of uninterrupted growth later on. This journey is as much about patience as it is about light and water.
