This week consists of July 23, 2022 thru July 29, 2022 - Seeds were planted on May 27th, 2022 and they all sprouted on May 31st, 2022 (~4 days) Continued on schedule of 2 times do feed and then one water with only PH'd water. LIGHTS: I'm running the lights on an 18-6 schedule. I have the dark time scheduled from 11am to 5pm since the lights increase temperature and during that time the outside temperature is at its highest so it seems to be easier to maintain proper temperature ranges with the light off during that period. Swapped out the metal halide bulb to the high pressure sodium on July 6th since the plants have been in flower. WATER: July 23rd: ~1500 ml of 6.1 PH and 1500 PPM. 30 ml/gal of Big Bloom 0 ml/gal of Grow Big 15 ml/gal of Tiger Bloom 0 ml/gal of Cal-Mag July 25th: ~1200 ml of 6.1 PH and oxygenated water July 27th: ~1500 ml of 6.1 PH and 1500 PPM. 30 ml/gal of Big Bloom 0 ml/gal of Grow Big 15 ml/gal of Tiger Bloom 0 ml/gal of Cal-Mag July 29th: ~1500 ml of 6.1 PH and 1500 PPM. 30 ml/gal of Big Bloom 0 ml/gal of Grow Big 15 ml/gal of Tiger Bloom 5 ml/gal of Cal-Mag TEMP/HUMIDITY: A max of 90.0F and a min of 62.8F with an average of 78.8F. VPD was harder to maintain this week since it was in the high 80s and low 90s outside with the average being around 1.59. Whole week numbers> Temp - 78.8F avg - 62.8F min - 90.0F max Humidity - 52.7% avg - 21.0% min - 83% max VPD - 1.59 avg - 0.40 min - 3.20 max CO2: Floating ball is between .5 and 1. This lets a more gradual amount of CO2 to enter the tent and I now get a more stable level of CO2 that fluctuates between around 1000 ppm and 1300 ppm. The regulator is still plugged into the same outlet as the lights so it turns off on the same light/dark schedule. PAR: PPFD between 300-1500. The tops of some plants are getting the 1200-1400 range and some side leaves are getting in the 400-700 range. ISSUES: Nothing new. TECHNIQUES: I implemented some minor defoliation on some of the affected leaves and some leaf tucking.

This week I decided to top the plant. It's the first time I've topped a plant and applied LST. It hurt to just cut the plant down but hopefully it will be worth it in the end. It tolerated it well. I have tried to make cuttings from the topped part. We'll see if they make it. The amount of watering remains unchanged for now as the soil stores enough water. I will water every 3 days from now on. This week I used the nettle manure in a mix with rainwater in a ratio of 1:20. Unfortunately, the weather has got a bit worse this week. The daytime temperature fluctuated between 18 and 21 degrees.

Well this lady is finally finishing off her life cycle. At this points shes just ripening & I'm thinking about chopping her within a few days maybe even later today. Her colas are huge. I hardly used any nutrients on this run but I'm super happy with the results. I hope you check back next week to see just how fast she dries and cures & follow along for a flavor test. Her aroma is amazing a mix of bananas & a bowl of fruit punch. Always remember its 4:20 somewhere!

Purple Lemonade , Gelato 1&2, LAK 2&3 are all just about done theyll be coming down over the weekend or early next week. T26, Pineapple Express, Mexican Airlines, LAK 1, 6 Shooter Blue Dreamatic and Cream Cookies are all on the flush but will need a few more before chop. This tent reeks up the whole block it's pretty intense skunk in the driveway right now. There will be one more update I'm guessing for most of these before the harvest update. This was the most successful autoflower crop I've had in a long time I think theres some really good quality buds on some of these. I'll put the video up now and as I go thru the pics theyll be uploaded so if your interested come back tmm for the pics.

From website seed stocker they said this BCN need 75 days to harvest. So, at the end of week 11(77days) is very nearly to harvest day. Next trichrome check found almost 75-80% already cloudy. I thing if no any problem should be ready in next 1-2 week.

shes getting there now, considering shes under a 100w light shes doing well. stinking now too, smells like a bag of haribo tangfastics, really sour with a mixed fruit hint, stem rub smells exactly like fresh cut grapefruit honestly haha hard to pick out a specific fruit smell from the bud though its just fruity, yous know what i mean anyway ha. really sensetive to nutes, getting burn even after low dose and feed, water, water, feed schedule.

week 6 of flower and she is starting to put on the weight. Buds have not got more frosty, not sure if its the strain or I've missed something. We are going to go with it the strain and not me, LoL. RQS says 8 to 9 weeks for flower. We will see how accurate that is. i'm going to give some Silica this week to see if it will help with trich production.

Grow Diary - Week 1: Germination of Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrid Automatic Introduction: Greetings, Growmies! Salokin here, thrilled to share the exciting germination week of our newest addition, Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrid Automatic. A special shout-out to Patricia from the Zamnesia family for granting us the opportunity to be among the first to cultivate this fantastic strain. Our journey begins as we prepare these seedlings for their future home in the controlled environment of Tent X. Germination Process: On January 24th, the Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrid Automatic seeds were carefully placed in the EZ-Plug germination setup. After a brief 1 1/2 days in these nurturing plugs, the seeds sprouted, marking the commencement of their growth journey. The uniformity in their germination is impressive, showcasing synchronized and promising starts for each seedling. Growing Environment: While they're not yet in the Tent X environment, our Watermelon Candy seedlings are thriving in their current setup. We're preparing the optimal conditions for their transition into the controlled environment. Observations: The seedlings exhibit a thriving and lush green appearance, though slightly trailing their tent mates. This expected difference in early-stage growth is carefully monitored, and adjustments are made to ensure optimal conditions. Acknowledgment: A special thanks to Zamnesia Seeds and Patricia for the sponsorship and the opportunity to cultivate this exciting strain. We eagerly anticipate observing the Watermelon Candy F1 Hybrid Automatic's journey from germination to harvest. Stay tuned for more updates as we nurture these promising seedlings through their growth stages. Stay Lifted, Salokin

Kinda a rough week, everyone. I’ve been battling the flu all week and my energy is zapped. So firstly I had been growing increasingly annoyed of leaf clawing. I addressed overwatering and started only watering every 4-5 days and the girls responded well. I researched defoliation as much as I could and gave it a go because the plants weren’t getting optimal light. Might’ve overdone it, I’m not sure. Then came lowering the screens to begin scrogging. I’ve read probably every forum and article and looked at dozens of diaries; but it feels like when I’m tying branches to the screen it’s just stacking them on other leaves and blocking more light. I hate my LED, it’s probably only good for one plant. But today one of the bulbs went out, brand new light. I decided to buy a 315w CMH Light should be here next week. Live and learn. Should have done a single plant grow. It’s a new week though it will all work out. 🍁

They've been having a bit of trouble with calcium deficiency due to me overwatering them and not giving them CalMag every feed but have learnt my lesson for next time and will be getting the bare minimum nutrients from a recommended supplier. Been feeding them half nutrients one feed and pHd water with CalMag the other, and that's taking a day break between watering. Think they've only got this week left now then I'll start flushing with water I think, the one in the corner may need another week or 2 but at least it'll have loads of space to finish up when they're out of there 🙂 Was gonna start flushing this week but they just look so poorly so gonna have 1 more week with nutes every day cause I think they're thirsty bitches which has slowed them down possibly, full nutes, no nutes doesn't seem to be doing me any favours so I'll start flush the 2 that I think are ready next week and the last one a week after 😊😓 Have ordered a microscope to check the trichomes, no idea what to look for but I'm sure I'll see something.. feeding them everyday again as it's been another hot week should've just stuck with a daily feed probably. Will upload some trichome pics soon hopefully 😊

Pour l’instant la Frosty purple freak a une bonne croissance, les changements de tempĂ©rature en belgique n’ont pas l’air de lui posĂ© problĂšme, les feuille sont saines , croissance visible quand tu repasse le lendemain, les limaces sont encore prĂ©sentes mais ne s’attaque plus au plantes saines, mise Ă  part la vigne Ă  kiwi qui doit ĂȘtre le saint graal de ses bestiole sinon Ă  part ça plus de problĂšme Ă  dĂ©plorer

I use all 3 General hydroponic nutrients and they are two different pot sizes the Moby Dick is in 30 liter and the blue amnesia is in 18 liters has a very strong odor and blue amnesia is maturing at a faster rate then the Moby Dick. a scrog net is being used in order to give support to the upcoming buds. I am also actually on week 4 I just made a mistake calculating the week. this is my first grow ever. also I'm not sure if using the scroll net it's a good idea for support rather than tying those branches up . I am watering every two days feeding nutes every single time at 900 to 1000 PPM ph at 6.2 the plans have not show any signs of stress but I am worried if it is too much nutrients the plant seems to grow very fast after every watering and seems to be loving it. the blue Amnesia XXL Auto it's growing in soil with 30% Coco and the Moby Dick XXL auto it's growing in hydroponic soil. the seeds were germinated on jiffy's and 100% germination rate plus the genetics seems to me very resilient to heat and everything else including lots of nutrients. the moby Dick XXL auto are the two in the front closest to the camera the two farthest to the back of the tent are the two blue amnesiaXXL auto. today day 31 i did some pruning actually lots of pruning hopefully don't cause stress to the plants or even worse cause them not to bud that nicely regardless the scrog net seems to be working just fine helping them access more light and making it easy for cutting leaves that are no longer needed. 32 yesterday after watering and sleeping today they have show no signs of stress in fact they starting to stretch in the buds that we're not getting sufficient light have start to grow also yesterday from the 16 liters I prepare instead of 3 ml of grow formula I add 6 1/2 to compensate for stress and the need of healing and having new grow stretch. also temperature has dropped dramatically outside making my house cold down from 24 degrees C to 19° at night internal temperature is remaining the same from 30 to 26 C. Day 33 I have been raising the scrog net every day and the light everyday this plant is growing very fast I also notice that where the fan is hitting all the time that plant is bigger I have been moving the fan to other sections of the grow tent to see if any reaction happens and it looks like it makes the plant grow faster . I will not be moving the Scrog net any higher Rather I will introduce another one once they require more support . Day34 notice some of the top leaves are showing a curving down like over-watering without actually over water I think they're showing signs of too much nitrogen .for the next water session I will hold back on nitrogen until I see signs of a fully recovering meaning leafs pointing up. thank you for reading have a happy grow.
