New update for week 12, concluding week 8 of flowering: Hi(gh) Folks! Thanks everyone for your input on my second grow question. I’m going for HighTV’s answer, the SOG with 9x4 main buds. Very nice to get everyone’s input on this, appreciate it! So another week done! They got their last nutrients Tuesday and on Thursday the 5 early ladies from Hempire got their first round of plain acidulated water. I flushed them a bit on Friday and Saturday to. Now they can dry out for a couple of days. I will flush them for the upcoming week and let them dry out before harvest next weekend. Im counting on them to swell up even further during this week. As for the rest of the 4 plants from Hempire, 4 from Royal Queen Seeds and 3 from Hy-Seeds, I will treat them as if this is another week 8, and they will get another dose of Flowering nutrients and PK. Then next week I will start to flush them also. I will have 2 full weeks to flush and let them dry out until my planned harvest on Saturday 5 January. I’m not even sure that will be early enough for the 4 RQS’s since they look like they have even more bud-growing to do, before they can start swelling! I will keep an eye on that. The 5 tall ladies, 2 from Hempire and 3 from Hy-Seeds show the nice thick Kushy buds i’m craving for, can’t wait to see the becoming nice and heavy! On the photos you see the slight diverence between the pheno’s, the left 2 plants grew the popcorn-buds on a stem, and the right ones have nice thick popcornbuds against the stem’s. The other to remaining Hempire plants also show these, apart from the early ladies offcourse. The early birds show a little stretching buds and nice purple colours. So next week will see the early ladies harvested, I hope? Look out for my next update and don’t forget to like! Thanks and see you!

Day 85. Because she still had mostly clear and some milky trichomes last week, I decided to continu giving her nutes. Also her official flowering time (vision seeds info) is 8-9 weeks. And since see seems to be a bit slow with everything, I thought it was a good idea to keep nuting her. 5ml/L seems a bit too much though, because I notice more burned leafs. Last week (11) the fan leafs started to get lighter green. Now they are turning yellow and are hanging loosely. Is it benificial too take them of from her at a certain moment? I will check trichomes every other day and will probably will start the flush now, because the trichomescheck today showed some amber colours I didn't noticed earlier. I would love to hear from experienced trichomescheckers if there are indeed the first signs of trichs getting amber or not. Also I still got a lot of clear trichs. My goal is too harvest her when most trichomes are milky and maybe 10 to 20 percent amber. Day 86, nooooooo budrot 🤒🤕😢. Cut off the infected buds. Put vinegar on her cutt wounds. I will keep her indoors with a blowing fan during tbe night and check buds daily. Day 87, This morning I noticed a 3rd cola with a tiny bit off budrot. It was close to another one with budrot I already cut off. I cut this 3rd one also and treated the cutwound with vinegar. I will check regurlarly and probably will harvest too early in these days to prevent the loss of my whole harvest. I am currently drying the healthy parts of the buds I cut off.

They have stretched a lot more than I anticipated for the first week of 12/12. Very happy so far and have about 19 cuts ready to test the strain in coco in my spare two grow chambers. I have numbered all the cuts in relation to which plant they came off so I will be keeping only the best two out of the 5 plants. Very happy with the growth structure so far, I normally top and train or scrog my canopies but want to just let them go to see their natural growth structure. In the next 5-12 days I will swap out the metal halide for my sodium bulb depending on how much they stretch.

-Total days above ground: 70 Total flower nights: 31 Vege growth stopped around FD25. Started feeding 1/2 strength fertilizer FD26 (last 6 irrigations including today). Excellent development across the canopy. Tried to get some pictures showing how the colas are stacking up along with a couple shots of terminal buds. Included some photos and videos of irrigation setup, drainage and other half of the tent setup that is not often visible in weekly updates. Also, a video showing the canopy with some grateful dead background music. Last week including progression pictures as they are full size. Animal Mints is doing well. AM3 was the one plant that had some leaf symptoms early. That stopped as it got into maturity, but clearly was not 100% happy with my formula. It was the first to cease vege growth, and I think I exacerbated the deviation from the rest of the crop by continueing to feed full strength. It doesn't look much better after lowering dose, but 1 problem child out of 8 is tenable. I'm sure the buds will be fine, but it was removed from the Fem breeding run. This won't cost much in yield and am still very impressed with the consistency of MSNL seeds over this grow and the last grow (2025-2 diary). Smell is starting to ratchet up. Bud sites are mostly formed at this point and we will see some noticable ripening by next week's update. Might see a hint of fattening calyxes in the bud pictures this week. 2026-2 starts in 8 days. Will have some Blue Cookies and Pineapple Express from MSNL running along side some Vanilla Creme Pie from HSC. Can't believe winter-2 is already starting. Time is flying by. Breeding cycle is doing well. Will update that when the pollen-receivers join the pollen-donator on a 12/12 light schedule. Side note -- looks like I avoided any issues from accidentally leaving port hole opened about 8 or 9 days ago. I have it marked in notes and will feel 100% confident 2-weeks out from the incident. So far, so good. The lung room is mostly dark and light would have to travel a difficult path to get in the tent, but still mildly concerned about it.

Everything on the readings seem well. Plant two seems to be having some kinda nutrition issue. I'm not sure what it is on the first set it leaves. Plant one is seeming to be super strong, healthy, and green. Gonna just keep watching the water levels and ph and keep on trucking.

Buds grew nice and strong..acted like a topped auto. There was no real main cola. But, instead there was 5 of near the same height. She didn't grow as expected. But, grew with great vigor. And pushed herself to give quite the bounty. Not a lot. But, what is there is so sticky. Stinky. Very earthy. With a very sweet undertone, can already get the hint of melons or something sweet like that when you grind it. It is an earthy smoke. And no doubt she will truly shine on a 2 month cure. And that's what this small harvest is going. Into the jars for 2 months. I've taken 3g and put it into a small jar, and will give a smoke review on it. After I feel I can justily do so. She glistenings with resin and her trichomes are bountiful. She has a very pungent earthy sweet musk that is lovely. I have vaped a bit. And it was very pleasant. The stone was deep and intense. Like a true indica. She did give a light sativa affect but was quickly washed away with a strong indica body high. 3 months later and the bud developments terpine profile became very potent with a strong pedgiree of a nice melon/earthy/sweet kush. Love this auto. Am awaiting a new batch of seeds from my friend from Kannabia and new lighting systems that will no doubt increase my overall success in grows sponsored by marshydro COUPON FOR MARSHYDRO Use code, "ggs", at any marshydro official site for a discount.

Looks all good. The Fruit Spirit is growing big time. Unfortunately the Legendary OG is very slow, I believe it’s because i plant it in a very big pot and is getting focused on the roots for now. It does look healthy anyways. The Blue cheese automatic is growing really quick. Unfortunately in week 3 the Legendary OG has died. I found out that i was giving nutrients to early so I kinda burnt it. Feeling sad about it. I’m doing another seed now. Northern Light Automatic. This week I added chamomile flowers to the soil. I baked in the oven egg shells which I added to the soil as a natural Calcium.

F-MILF takes 70 % of my tent now...wtf Hope all this green gives some good buds at the end. Deficiency from last week is under control...added some Silicate from TA...no idea if that helped or anything else...of course...there is too much light photons for the above area...but wtf I cannot do the plant smaller...lamp is on 75% now und lower would be bad for lower buds. NL untopped (F-MILF) getting this week: (TA nutrients mentioned above are for NL topped from other tent...pictures follow) Aptus Topbooster 6 drops/l (increased) Aptus P-boost 12 drops/l (increased) Aptus regulator 3 drops/l Aptus All in one 0.6 ml/l Aptus CaMg 0.6 ml/l TA Silicate 0.4g/l 4-6 litre each day nutrified (thats a real problem) F-MILF cannot get enough...just makes me poor that fat big milf

Stretch slowing down, secured the existing net for some support and to help with LST. Stretch has slowed down for sure. budlets beginning to form. Did a heavy top dress of Gaia Green, 13 TBSP Power Bloom to 7 TBSP All Purpose, mixed with a few scoops of compost. When I pulled back the mulch to top dress I snapped a few pics and videos of the soil, wow, SO much life it's incredible, one giant heap of life. I find mixing top dress with compost lets gives the roots something to adhere to, and nothing like increasing that root zone! Kept up with some light defoliation and LST with some bud clips and netting, not much else to do but wait! All the excess trim from defoliation and nearly everything you see in the background will get mulched up and added in the fall for next years crop. Circle of life yo! Had some very very minor Powdery Mildew on some fan leaves after we have some 95% humidity roll through, I had company so skipped a spraying of Lactobacillus, and it showed. If you haven't tried it, it's EASY to make and it works wonders, plants love it as a foliar spray or a root soak, I use molasses to keep it stable, so it's double good for flowering time. This will HAVE to get harvested end of September regardless, that gives me 7 weeks from now, so here's hoping for that FastBuds "Fast Flower" action.

Wow this week was nerve-wracking. Her roots were well into the toilet part of the pot so it was time to remove all the soil and manipulate the roots for exposure later during the big reveal. Fingers crossed the makes it. Her being an auto it will stress her into flower but that's okay it's a cannabonsai they are supposed to be small. She still has a couple weeks of growth still so it will be just fine. The other plants in the shed are getting flipped to flower this weekend she I've put her in the tent with her sisters. Sorry about the blurple but hey.....it is what it is right?
