Just starting to flower 😃 This week I foliar sprayed ChitoSal and Rubicon Marinis to help transition to flower. I also added nets to the rest of the plants since we've had crazy storms lately but they hole their own quite well. Roughly 30 gallons of soil inside cages wrapped in plastic about a foot and a half high amended with 3 cups Gaia 4-4-4 and 2 cups Gaia 2-8-4 and 2 cups Gaia Feather Meal 13-0-0. Topped up each month with a cup of each as well as worm casting/soluble kelp/molasses compost tea once a week. Also Fish Shit amendment added at recommended doses. Orange Kush Cake, Cherry Gar-See-Ya, Mac 'n Jack, Crescendo Rbx1 are all Ethos genetics at 25-35% THC Blue Afghan is from Jordan Of The Islands. Recieved clones in the mail in early May. Happy Growing 😌

Last week of flowering is behind us and today I harvested. Since I barely defoliated my plants I had quite a bit of leaves to remove. I hung them up to dry in a dark growtent with light airflow. Expect a Harvest report in about two weeks

Hi everyone! Sooo… Looks like those girls slowly are getting back🤭 Slowly increasing water volume,but nothing crazy yet. Instead of watering once a week,now i’m watering 2-3 times. Doing some topping also.height in flower room is really tight,that means i’m after in lower,bushier plants (well probably we all after that🙄) I think another week or so,and i will transplant them to final pots and can’t wait to see them flowering!

La fine del viaggio.siamo in Italia,e in Italia la cannabis é illegale.nel mio quartiere c'é stato un blitz violento che ha portato via tante persone,ho deciso di tagliare perché la situazione polizia qui si é fatta pesante,sono salvo ma non ho più tempo per continuare,avrei voluto farvi vedere di più,portare le piante al massimo,ma questo é stato il loro tempo,non diffidate mai delle autofiorenti buone,se fatte bene possono competere con le loro sorelle femminizzate.Sono veloci rapide e potenti,tutto ciò che serve a chi non ha tempo e spazio,come dimostrato se fatte con conoscenza possono portare risultati esorbitanti,é stato il più bel raccolto della mia vita.il costo totale del raccolto é stato all incirca 1600€ fra terra bolletta e fertilizzanti,il valore della materia prima prodotta si aggira intorno ai 10000-15000€

This is the last week before water flush and the harvest. Plants continue in their course. The week plant surprisingly will give some crop but the healthy one is very pretty. From today I started with the water to flush.

Week has gone well no support needed stock has been strengthened. New stocks coming in to replace the original 2 leaves. Looking very healthy. Trying to keep temp up a lil higher but I'm having difficulty do that currently. Just going to run the heat in my house a lil higher to help out.

Cereal milk has some really nice small leaves I like when plants have small leaves I feel it’s easier todo a sea of green. Most plants I see now days have medium size leaves but some have huge and some have small. Plants smell is pretty strong. This plant reminds me of the best black valentine plant i grew awhile back. All of the plants have really taken off. Usually I have a couple plants that are much smaller but all of these plants are getting huge. Seeing I got a new eluefah uap1500 the other day and I have my 2 fastbuds plants under that now I have my spider farmer light free. So I popped up another 2x2 and moved 3 of the 10 plants into the 2x2 and left the 7 other in the 2x4.

Welcome to week 9 friends! Since the last defoliation on end of week 8 she dealt very well with. She’s still looking strong but you can tell that the leaf tips starting to burn because of high nutrient levels. In this late stage this shouldn’t be a problem, I will not further increase the amount of nutrients she gets. The buds gaining in weight from day to day. She’s doing great and some of her trichomes already starting to turn milky. Looking forward to this week since I can not doing that much at this flower stage beside of checking if she needs some watering.

Thank you. Growing cannabis is an art that seems to evolve as you learn it. While it may only take a little knowledge to get started, It seems that this may take a life-time to perfect (doubt I'll ever make that category, but I will certainly try). So thank-you to the community that Shares, Comments, Follows, and Likes. Your efforts in any of these actions make these journals a worth-while and perfect way for us all to learn. I personally appreciate it. Also a huge Thanks has to go out to Grow Diaries for making this community even possible. Your efforts to supply the data storage alone is more than enough, but you the fact that you dont stop there and constantly try to improve the experience even more makes this my favorite community to to share on. And then lastly, but certainly not least, a heartfelt Thank-you to Fast Buds for selecting me as 2nd place in a photo contest and making these seeds available, I'll try my best to honor the gift and opportunity to grow these. Your sponsorship in keeping the community active here is an in-valuable learning tool of its own. And then your branding/research helps give me confidence in knowing that I am working with great genetics before I even start my grow. ---------------------------- Germination Start 2/13/24 to 2/18/24 2/19 to 2/25 Veg Days 1 to 7 Week 0 to 1 Germination took 6 days from dropping in water to transplanting into 1 gallon pots. 29hours in a glass of 6.3ph room temp RO water. Something I would only attempt if they were both floating. They were,so leaving them that long they were able to crack open. I then placed both in paper towels wet with the glass water and pasted to the sides of the glass for 3 days (1 day too long in retrospect). I placed in rapid rooter pods and closed with toothpick tips. They popped out from the pods 1 day later but I gave them 2 days before transplant. Video: Incubator water level is key for rapid rooter pods to wick properly during incubation. Transplant to 1 gal pots: I am using a 50/50, 50%perlite/50%soil with a .5lb of dolomite lime and a .5ml of flora micro added to .5 gallon of RO water (Im mixing 2 gallons of soil total so the water to soil ratio is 1/4 of the total medium volume) to achieve a soil tested ph of 6.4. I am using a 50/50 soil/perlite mix because I plan to use these in auto pots. I also used about 1 cup of the same soil mix water to pour around the plant after transplant; you can see how the perlite rises to the top where I did this. I sprayed two domes and covered - I plan to leave covered for the first week. Feed: I kept them under the domes and sprayed every day that I didnt feed them, to keep humidity up while I let them find water in the soil. By the end of the week I took the domes off and took pictures. Feed this week was another 1 cup of 6.3ph water 5 days after transplant. Feed plan next week will increase the amount to 2 cups of plain-no-nute water with about 4 days between feeds. I want to see the water run through so if I need to use more than 2 cups I will. The idea is to water deep and through, but then make them search for more before the next feed, hopefully spreading the roots out while doing it. Veg Plan: I plan on 8 colas for each plant. So that will be 3 topping days and a total of 7 cuts. I will want to cut the first time on day 21 if I have 5+ nodes. I will transfer to 5 gallon auto pots with-in 1 week of the first topping. Once I have 3 nodes of new growth past the first topping, I will top those two branches to the first node again. (that's 3 cuts total by this point) Then, after 3 new nodes of growth after that, I will do a last topping on the 4 branches. (4 new cuts added to make a total of 7 cuts and 8 colas) I will train the branches using LST/HST with tie downs as soon as I can after the first topping day to help maintain the branches growing where I want them to. I will also introduce an adjustable tomato ring after they have settled into the 5 gallon forever pots to provide support and mobility Hopefully all goes well, and I will have 1 to 2 weeks of growth before flip after week 8. I think it sounds more ambitious than it really is, but if you follow this journal, we will see together.
