7/5- All getting 1-1 1/4 gallon of straight well water ph'd to 6.5. Day temps are in the mid to upper 70's F, nighttime temp's 60-62 F. CO2 dropped to 600ppm for final week of flower. Supplemental UV continues from 11a-3p daily and it really shows in the trichome production and terp profiles as they're all absolute FIRE! BD is just about ready, showing 5-10% amber. 7/7- Daily regiment continues including checking trichomes, BD is ready and going to put her in the dark tonight for 48hrs. 7/9- All three remaining ladies are looking fine as hell! All getting frosty and really stacking especially, to my surprise, the Grapefruit Sour Dream Ol' Lady. She has gone crazy, stacking multiple cola's, pouring on the tricomes and has a terpene profile that is gonna be a winner! Chopped and hung BD...she's smelly very 'hashy' probably the Afghani coming out. 7/11- trichomes on the 3 remaining ladies are 90% milky/5% clear/5% amber...gonna send them into 48 dark in the tent in two more days, then chop & hang them on 7/15. 7/15- PP & GSD finished their 48hrs in the dark. Chopped and hung! Black Domina is drying well and is probably gonna be ready to trim & jar in the next 3 days for sure. Drying room is on point- Air temp: 68degF RH: 60%

Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 8 with our majestic Big Cheese Auto is like stepping into a festive wonderland, and the excitement is reaching its crescendo. A colossal shoutout to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that keep surprising and delighting. Our green queen is dancing through her fourth week of flowering, and oh my, what a spectacle! It's like she's transformed into a true monster bush, embracing the Christmas tree structure with open arms. The Autopot system continues to be the backstage pass, allowing her to sip on a nutrient feast with grace. It's like the VIP treatment for a botanical masterpiece. Nutrient Maestros: P-Boost, Topbooster, and now, the latest addition, K-Boost, continue their nutrient symphony. It's like the Three Tenors of the botanical world, creating a harmonious bloom with organic nitrogen, L-amino acids, trace elements, and maturation magic. The anticipation for those colossal, aromatic buds is now heightened by the maturation finesse brought by K-Boost. Ah, the sweet scent of success! The aroma has started to unveil itself, a tantalizing mystery that accompanies the vast trichome production. It's like the plant's way of whispering secrets of the flavors that await. The olfactory journey has begun, and I'm eagerly anticipating the unveiling of this aromatic masterpiece. Our TDS is maintaining its robust 420 , and the pH, a symphony at 6.0. The Autopot and the nutrient trio are now conducting an orchestra of botanical brilliance. It's like a green harmony that resonates through every leaf and bud. Our Christmas tree is getting its final touches. The leaf-bending spectacle continues, creating an even canopy that basks in the natural light. Defoliation is a delicate grooming session, ensuring every bud gets its moment in the spotlight. It's like preparing for the grand finale of this floral extravaganza. A colossal thank you to Seeds Mafia, Aptus Holland, Grow Diaries, and the incredible community. Your support is the heartbeat of this flourishing green odyssey.

1 DE AGOSTO - DIA 8 ✅💨 - Hoy puse en funcionamiento el ventilador para remover el calor concentrado de la lámpara por sobre las plantas y distribuir aire fresco en todo el indoor. Beneficiando también a el tronco y las ramas, generando una resistencia al viento. El crecimiento se ve uniforme en todas las plantas. 2 DE AGOSTO - DIA 9 🌱💪🏼 - Hoy es un gran día!! Apliqué la técnica de LST a todas mis nenas. Mi deseo es obtener buenos resultados al final de la cosecha, pero ya me siento muy feliz porque al final del cultivo lograré ganar experiencia!! 3 DE AGOSTO - DIA 10 💦👨‍🌾🏻 - Hoy es día de riego. 1 litro de agua para cada una de las niñas (600 cc desclorada y 400 cc destilada) - PH 5.9 📊 - LSD-25 #2 y SIX SHOOTER #1 parecen ser las más vigorosas del cultivo. - Relleno las macetas con tierra debido al crecimiento del tallo de las plantas. Todo marcha muy bien!!! - LSD-25 #3 aparentemente esta pasando por un leve estrés, ha dejado de crecer a la par de las demás. ¿Que puedo hacer al respecto? ¿Perjudicará el ciclo de vida de la planta? 4 DE AGOSTO - DIA 11 💡📏 - Subo la lámpara a 40 cm de distancia. - Por lo visto las niñas respondieron bien a la técnica de LST. 5 DE AGOSTO - DIA 12 - Reviso la humedad del sustrato y aparentemente se encuentra en buenas condiciones, por lo tanto mañana voy regar las niñas. - Como todos los días controlo los ganchos y la soga colocadas, parece que las plantas se adaptaron al entrenamiento sin ningun problema. LSD-25 #2 y SIX SHOOTER #1 tienen un crecimiento mas rápido por sobre las demás. - LSD-25 #3 que habia pasado por leve estrés (dentro de mi punto de vista) parece comenzar a desarrollarse de manera normal. 6 DE AGOSTO - DIA 13 💦👨‍🌾🏻 - Hoy es día de riego. LSD-25 #2 y SIX SHOOTER #1. En primera instancia regaré solo a ellas dos, ya que el sustrato se encuentra bastante seco. 1 litro de agua a cada una (500 cc destilada y 500 cc desclorada) con una dosis de 2 ml VOODO JUICE 💀 y 2 ml PIRANAHA 🐟 - PH 5.9 📊 - Antes de finalizar el día repetí el riego con todas las demás nenas (LSD-25 #1, #2, SIX SHOOTER #2 y GORILLA GLUE) 7 DE AGOSTO - DIA 14 🌱💪🏼 - Hoy cumplen dos semanas en tierra. Estoy muy contento por que se nota el progreso de todas!! Cargue las fotos del día para culminar esta semana, se puede observar como el tallo y las ramas se van adaptando a los alambres que les fui colocando. Una BELLEZA 😍

Hallo und herzlich Willkommen, Die Purple C. K. auf dem Balkon verlangsamt ihr Wachstum enorm. Seit dem Rausstellen ist sie noch gute 15 cm hoch gewachsen. Um Schimmel vorzubeugen haben wir nochmal ein wenig entlaubt. Das Durstverhalten wird auch geringer. Die Purple C. K. im Garten macht sich gut. Wir freuen uns auf eine neue tolle Woche und wünschen somit allen Growmies einen angenehmen Sonntag und eine erfolgreiche neue Woche! Vielen Dank an alle diejenigen die Liken, Kommentieren und unsere Updates verfolgen! VG 😎

Week 8: What can I say about this lady? The beefy colas are now gaining the resin that gives this strain it's name. Super thick and dense. I pulled lowers on the cola away from the stem to avoid the possibility of bud rot(see video) It smells like honey and berries... maybe a touch of grape in there. Super smooth smelling!! Can't wait to smoke it!!!!

Yo, what’s up, friends! Harvest day is getting closer 😍 Cannalope Haze is pretty much ready, but I’m holding off until Sleepy Joe catches up — I think just a few more days. The trichomes are mostly milky, with a few amber ones showing, which is exactly how I like it for a more uplifting effect to keep me productive throughout the day. For drying, I’ll hang the plants in my tent and aim for 20°C and 60% relative humidity. Let’s see how it goes—I’m excited to see the final result. Stay tuned for updates!

Trimmed out some, flushed and replenished the nutrients- looking at 3/4 more weeks until it’s done I think! Plant seems very healthy- and dense! I can see needing proper airflow in harvest will be important. Any insight on Hindu mints/kush afghani strains hit me up!

To be honest overall this strain done good so as the others. Reflecting back on how i started with just a tent and light, and slowly buying the fans and filters whiles the plants were growing. But i did want these plants to grow naturally without topping and Low Stress Training. I regret not removing the lower branches becuase i did get alot of small airy buds down there. But it was all trial and error. All i done was remove some fan leaves when good to do so every now and then. Not on a mad level tho, i did have alot of sugar leaves which i will be making some stuff with! At veg the plants had deficiencies due to out of date Biobizz bottles. But that got sorted with the magic of Algimac and Calmag. Overall Next time I will definitely train the plants and maybe top a few. Final Yield: Plant #1 21.88 Grams Plant #2 33.36 Grams Plant #3 56.06 Grams Which yield exactly 110 grams! Ounces come out very fat with these light buds Not bad for the conditions they were brought up in, and with no training! Thanks for everyone who has followed this diary throught out the journey! I hope this diary will help people out. And thank you to Seedstockers for very cheap and quality seeds. And special thanks for the GrowDiaries Team for providing the best platform for growing journals! I couldnt explain how much this Diary helped me. Its like a dream come true finding a site like this! And if you do see this message, i would love to see a Iphone app coming soon! Kind Regards! One love!

Seems she doesn't like above like 300ppm right now. Will keep lowering. Need to start a bit of Green Sensation soon and she still need a defoil lol. She's pretty bushy. Will get to that hopefully Sunday. August Midnights is being his typical adorable self! Always wanting to play! Love this kitty soooo much! He was meant to be our baby. A year ago, just 2 weeks into October, someone posted this little black kitty free to good home. I never even get posts from this group on my feed....but for some reason, there it was! Terrified, and in disbelief that someone would offer a free black kitten so close to Halloween, I knew he was meant for us! And...on top of that, he was actually born in August, so the name I wanted for my next kitty was PERFECT, then him being solid black....I had my perfect Swiftie Cat name! August Midnights. Can't believe he's a year old now. He just grew up so fast, crazy how time flies.

Smooth sailing this week. I added the grow nutrients on the mid week water and yesterday and the girls loved it! Number one looks like it’s a little mutated or damaged by me accidentally but is just a tad smaller. Other than feeding every other day or so and filling the humidifier up every day that’s about all. Thanks for stopping by and happy growing!!!

On day 11 of flowering. I spent a few days without being able to see them, and the people that take care for me gave them just water, so they are a little hungry. Gonna rise the feeding and do another micronutrients + potassium silicate + fungicide + aminoacids + neem oil foliar spray. I put and old scrog on top of the 2 big ones to open them more and give support.

She turned out to be a nice little plant with really nice buds even though she ended up being an auto flower

The use of monster bloom is really showing. I put it once a week and the next day the flowers are already bigger. It's beautiful! The smell is getting better as well.

This is my first induced flowering growth. I always grow weed outdoors with big satisfaction on yield and nature contact, But I have to say that training plants is real fun and I can’t wait to see the buds first appear and then fatten up. On day 5 of flowering she started to appear a little stressed, I think is a little overfeeding because her leaves are a little burned on the tip and a little underwater too but this morning end of day 6 appear to be recovering has the timelapse show on the end. Happy growing to you all brothers and sisters ☮️☮️☮️✌️🏼

May 5, 2025 Harvest Summary Most plants have been successfully harvested as of today's date. Two specimens remain and are scheduled for harvest later this week, allowing for optimal maturation. Growing Method This cultivation cycle utilized a Biotabs "just add water" organic feeding strategy in conjunction with an Autopot XXL system. This combination proved highly efficient, significantly reducing maintenance time while ensuring consistent nutrition throughout the entire growth cycle. Growing Environment Lighting: Sanlight EVO 5-150 LED lights Environmental Control: Growcontrol Growbase Pro system Medium: TERRA PRETA MJ-Mix Irrigation: Autopot XXL with Flexi Tank and Airdomes Results The harvest yielded exceptional results across multiple phenotypes of the same genetic lineage: Smaller Plants: Each produced over 100g of dried material Larger Plants: Estimated yield of at least 200g per plant (final weight pending completion of drying process) Quality Indicators: All phenotypes exhibited excellent terpene profiles with pronounced aromas and high resin production (noticeably sticky flowers) Observations The current generation of autoflowering genetics demonstrated remarkable growth characteristics, comparable to traditional photoperiod varieties but with the advantage of automatic flowering transition. Plant size exceeded initial expectations, resulting in specimens larger than anticipated. Recommendations for Future Cycles Early training techniques are recommended for similar genetics to better manage plant architecture and potentially increase yields. Implementation of strategic training methods during the vegetative phase would likely optimize space utilization and light exposure throughout the canopy. Conclusion Overall, this growing cycle was highly successful. The combination of quality genetics, efficient automated watering, and organic feeding strategy delivered excellent results with minimal intervention required.
