Prepared 9 , 5 gallon fabric pots. Started presoak of beans at noon on August 31st. About 4 hrs then switch to pure water for 8 more hours. Around midnight switch to paper towel and plates. Set heat pad @86°. Prep solo cups with Light Warrior ff, on the 2nd of September check tails and plant in solos. Wet solos the day before and start heating them up on the mat in domes. After seeds pop in solos wet the center of 5gal pots until runoff and start heating main tent with the big pots in it. Transplant seedlingson or around September 7th. I'll try to remember to post a germination pic. I use rain water with 5ml calmag per gal with a ph 6.0-6.5 no adjustment to the ph is needed. That's how I water throughout the grow, unless I see a deficiency that needs immediate attention. Soil is a mixture of Fox Farm soils , I added pumice, perlite, peat, moss, ewc, compost, guano, langbeinite, dietamacieous earth and dry fertilizers like Dr EARTH Bud and Bloom, or Pennington tomato. Installing bamboo frames for LST. I'll LST and top once usually. Manifolding is fun but takes an extra 2 weeks for me so I have started to avoid tall strains. I've grown Wedding Cake a few times, also Chemdog and Gelato, but the N. Lights and Peyote WiFi are gonna be a new experience. No idea what PW will be, they were freebies won in the Seedsman 4-20 contest 2021. Pretty sure the Northern lights will be similar in size to wedding cake. It will all get sorted out over the next 7 weeks. Ill move them around until a conopy looks good. That 2x4 tent is mainly for germinating seedlings and drying harvest but can also be useful for overfolw or quarantine. The 4x4 is taller plants. The 3x5 with that vioer spectra 480w light is bad ass but does have limits on total plant height, really really strong light.Alright that's it, I'm back with no name or gender changes, had some success and failure here before, I expect that trend to continue.I'll be checking your darlings out. 8/2 added a few more beans to the paper towels. These old beans from GOG seem to be bad, probably due to the factory seed pack. They are blister packs with plain card board backing, the plastic is heavy butvonly on the top for protection from crushing. Obviously not good for storage , so much for trying to maintain humidity. Added six more chemdog millionaire and 4 more Northern Lights beans to the paper towel for germination last night so far all these chemdogs and northern lights haven't germinated. The wedding cakes spouted then died before the tails were a quarter inch long. I've never had so many fail. This is gonna take a while but I'll eventually find some beans that aren't full of dust. Garden of Green love ya but this is bad. Update September 7th I've added- 3 Black Sugars, 6 White Widows, 5 Hellfire OG, all failed they are just dry husk that sink and stay on the bottom of a glass with water. Out of 60 or so seeds I think 6 germinated and 4 actually became seedlings. Stating over with. 5 Seedsman Gelat OG feminized and 5 Seedsman Amnesia FAST feminized pre soaked last night then started paper towel method at 5am today. Still have 5 of 9 pots that are empty. What a fucking ordeal.im just gonna continue with what is up already and say day 1 was Sept 12. That's close enough for this mess.

These ladies are growing great. After being transplanted last week they've definitely doubled in size. I did some defoliation today taking off the first set of branches and fan leaves that were at the soil level. All in all Happy Growing.

Bueno , es increíble como a pesar de equivocaciones , esta genética se desarrolla sin problemas . Si bien una de las 3 plantas por error mio , quedo un poco mas chica que las demás , tienen un poder de recuperación sorprendente , no esperaba menos de este banco tan reconocido. Datos : [25/9] : Se regaron las 3 plantas con 600ml pH: 6.4 / solo agua . Hr : 40% y °C 25. [27/9] : Se rego con Amazonia 3 plantas pH: 6.5 / 350 ml x planta [1/10] : 1/10 ph perfect x 2ml bud candy x 1ml big bud x 1ml ph 6.40 planta 3 ph perfect x 1.5ml bud candy x1.5ml big bud x 1ml 6.5 ph

From what I've learnt since, by defoliating and not ensuring sufficient reserves in the Substrate after taking their reserves from the bigger fan leaves at strip, this left 1 pheno more hungry than the others, but still all 4 suffered to some degree which was really disappointing. I was too busy enjoying the festive period with family so its a good enough excuse! ;)

I forgot to turn on the ventilation fan. But, fortunately, my children did not die.

She seems to be overfed, showing yellowing here and there. I might have messed up the Ph because I did not adjust fhe ph of nutrients mix. I assumed it was ph corrected. Now, I am adjusting the Ph and reducing feeding. Let’s hope that she recovers next week.

Okay so I’ve been slacking a bit on the grow-diaries, only because I’ve had a lot going on and also because I don’t feel obligated to do so because this isn’t a sponsored grow. It’s been nice to have a little break but I think I’m ready to come back at it full force again. These girls are living their best lives, they are all the same age and they are all thriving. Floraflex nutrients, as well as some Silica, Regina-root, and a trichome enhancer called “Grease”!! Seems like the real deal. Watering every other day and let me tell you these girls are very thirsty. Defol as needed! My new HLG Blackbird lamp fixture is out of this world. My 3 autos that you can also find in my profile absolutely blew up. I typically fit 4 autos in my 3x3 but now it’s essentially one Purple punch from Fastbuds and I had to cram 2 more inside basically because they are going crazy. Unfortunately I had to move them from under the blackbird and put them under a HLG350R and they are still going crazy. Basically what I’m saying is HLG Lamps=Crazy growth and amazing lamps!! HLG has a lifetime customer! That’s it for now but check in next week to see the progress! Thanks for tuning in. Until next time and as always, Stay Smokey my Friends!!! 💨💨💨 Instagram: Virginia_nugz_540 Sponsors: Horticulture Lighting Group HLG-Blackbird HLG-600RSpec HLG-350R Diablo (X2) Discount code: Virginia_Nugz Petra Tools LTPRO 2.0 Backpack Sprayer Trimbag Standard Trimbag Discount Code: Virginia_nugz Fastbuds Fastbuds Genetics Goat and Monkey Hydrokulture Store 4x4 Gorilla Tent

Week 1 Report: Nurturing the Essence of Blackberry Auto Greetings, fellow cultivators! It's time for a detailed Week 1 report on the progress of my Blackberry Auto. This little marvel is not just a plant; it's a canvas for a nutrient symphony, a masterpiece in the making. Our journey starts with a delicate transplant into a petite pot filled with nutrient-rich soil and a generous touch of Mycor Mix. This mix, boasting various mycorrhizae species, is the secret sauce for expanding the root system and paving the way for efficient nutrient uptake. The stage is set for a robust foundation! Enter the Regulator – the elixir for plant strength and resilience. With each watering, this cornerstone of my nutrition program acts as a transporter, enhancing nutrient absorption and bioavailability. The patented formula dances with natural plant mechanisms, ensuring the right nutrition at the right time. It's not just watering; it's a performance of nutrient precision! As the week unfolds, the magic of CaMg-Boost unfolds. This organo-mineral powerhouse prevents calcium and magnesium deficiencies while orchestrating a symphony of powerful fruit set and development. A key player for a firm and high-quality end product, CaMg-Boost is the maestro of mineral balance in my cannabis opera. Week 1 is where the magic happens with All-in-One Liquid. This 100% mineral-based fertilizer is a versatile companion, adaptable from the vegetative phase to the flowering/maturation phase. Its unique manufacturing process laughs in the face of pH-variations, embracing a wide pH-range. The plant is not just fed; it's serenaded with a harmonious blend of essential nutrients. The week crescendos with Startbooster, a specially formulated organic root and growth stimulator. This 100% biological potion, enriched with active organic ingredients, becomes the conductor of root development and vegetative growth. Microbial life joins the orchestra, enhancing root hair development, conditioning the soil, and providing bioavailable nutrition during this crucial vegetative phase. As I stand witness to the dance of nutrients and the growth of Blackberry Auto, I'm reminded that cultivation is not just a science; it's an art. Join me in this horticultural symphony, where every nutrient is a note, and every leaf is a stroke on the search for green perfection! Genetics Blackberry Auto @Fast_Buds Food - @aptusholland @aptus_world As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life

Entering week three of flowering. Budlets forming everywhere. About 40 tops. Need another round of defoliation to get more light into the canopy. Nutrients ate running around 800-900 PPM. Not as strong smelling as I would've thought by now. Will see how they are by the end of the week.
