The run continues nicely, we still had some temperatures of nutritive solution a little high with the heat of Danielle. It drops drastically in 2 days so I will finally finish this growth in the calm one and will be able to begin my bloom on September 24th. I apply hydrogen peroxide at a rate of 0.5ML/L, twice a week as a treatment. The root Rot X is used every ten days when changing the nutritive solution. I put less water in my system, in order to create a wet zone and a dry zone, I make sure that the roots are always immersed of course. As soon as the temperature drops, I will switch to 800 ppfd for the end of growth and depending on the evolution of the plants I may add some sensi grow a and b to increase the ec a little. If you are attentive, you will observe on the tips of the leaves or even on the leaves, spots of burns or deficiencies, it is simply the consequence of the pythium a few days earlier. The last growth update will be around September 24/25.

Finally we arrive to last week, plants seem very healthy, no signs of budrot. I think apart from my humidity issue which is under control now, it all went well, didn't have any insects or deficiencies. Temperature outside is going up really fast so inside my tent is already hitting the 31c at peak time and I grow during night time. I will feed a light dose of florakleen on next water and just water at least 2 times more with plain water before harvest, so I may extend this week a little bit.

Ginger Nut Cookies 23rd Jan 2020 Seems like I got another mutated plant to play with 😬 The top leaf which was the second set to appear is mutated and similiar to one of the Sour diesel autos Im growing which is apparently a polyploid. As you can see in the above pics I removed the weird leaf and I now have two distinct tops rather than the usual one forming. They do say two heads are better than one 😀 Anyway I gave this little ginger nut a weak mix of Superthrive and Seaweed solution plus a tiny bit of Great white Mycorrhizae powder. This will be the first documented grow of anything Ive created thru my "Fuck around experiments" I call them that because I really dont have any plans or goals as far as breeding is concerned other than learning how it is all done. When Australia finally bites the bullet and goes legal I want to have the basic skills needed to create my own seeds for my own use. Basically a strain that is well acclimatised to my environment with maximum potency , flavour and terpene profile. But most importantly for me is a strain that is a IBL and Homozygous, so that I get very similiar results every time I grow it. Anyway Thats enough of my rambling lets get down to the Music part of this weeks update. I hope you liked the AC/DC I played last week , This week is INXS probably our greatest export music wise other than the Beegees I suppose. Sadly Michael hutchence the lead singer of INXS died in an apparent accidental misadventure but some say it was suicide . We'll never know for sure. Any way I couldnt choose between the two videos I wanted to play for you so I'm putting up both. First one is "New Sensation" and the second is "Mystify" I hope you like them and here are the links . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV-QGQVZv0k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26ELh7P2ZtA Thankyou for looking in on my Diary I shall be back next week 👍

📋Summary of previous week During week 5 of vegetation, both R01 and R03 showed solid development, especially R03. A training session was done to open them up and improve branch distribution. R01 has started showing signs of pre-flowering, while R03, being five days younger, hasn’t yet. R02, unfortunately, suffered another setback: during an LST adjustment, its main stem snapped. It was carefully taped and stabilized, but it’s becoming increasingly clear that it won’t be able to keep up with the others. This week, two watering sessions were done: one with 1.2L of water, 1.5ml of Terra Vega, and 1ml of Mycochum per plant, and another with 1L of water and 1ml of Terra Vega. The light intensity was increased to 85%, and the lights were raised a bit higher to encourage more stretching before flowering begins ------------------------------------------------------------- 6️⃣Week flower : 24/03 - 31/03 💡 Light schedule: 21 hours (06h30-03h30) 📏 Lamp To Plant Distance: 85cm ⚡ Dimming: 85% 🌡️ Average temperature: 20,5° ☔ Average humidity: 67% ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #24/03/2025 I decided to make another LST adjustment and I'm starting to consider removing R02 from the tent and placing her on the balcony, allowing more space for R01 and R03, which are now practically filling up the tent on their own. As for the SCROG net, I’ve decided not to use it and will stick with LST until the end. The main reasons are : -I’ve already managed to open up the plants well with LST - R01 is already showing signs of flowering -I’ll be able to handle the plants more freely throughout the contest .. and the main reason , I messed up the measurements for my frame and now need to figure out a way to extend the support pipes a few centimeters to make it fit properly! 😅 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #26/03/2025 Applied a bit more LST today and decided to give them one last watering with Bactomatik from Agrobacterias, but at a lower dose , just 2g in 3L of water, with one drop of SuperVit to give a final boost of nitrogen, beneficial bacteria, vitamins, and amino acids. I also sprinkled a bit of Epsom salt from THC on the surface for magnesium, and some Basalt Rock from EcoForce, which contains 45% silica, to further strengthen the ladies ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 30/03/2025 Watered today with 1.5L per plant, adding 1ml of Terra Vega by Canna and 1ml of Alga Bloom from Plagron. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 31/03/2025 Had to make another LST adjustment on R03 — this girl is definitely keeping me busy! I’m completely out of space in the tent, so from now on the only direction left for her to grow is up!💚 I also did a bit of defoliation — something I don’t usually do with autoflowers, but they really needed it. Nothing major, just a few lower leaves and some that were blocking light from reaching the lower branches. Nothing too crazy!!

Parfait elle se comporte bien les bourgeons gonfles énormément. Une odeur fruité se dégage de la tente.Les engrais bio RQS organic sont excellents elles font un super travail sans excès ni de carence. Rajout de guano au dessus du terreau pour l'explosion floral ☠️☠️ a bientôt pour plus d'informations.

Last week there was a hurricane coming this way 🤦🤷 so i placed the plant in front of the window but of course 0 sunlight, this means we lost some critical time of the buds getting bigger and fatter, bad luck 😔 i think we are giving this plant 1 more week

Flower day 17 - All the ladies are looking great, starting to see a lot of bud sights & the smell is definitely getting stronger everyday I open the tent! Thanks for following & happy growing friends!🌱✌️🏼 Flower day 19- Got a bigger dehumidifier because I was having problems on days I would water the humidity would go through the roof at night so to prevent mold I bought a bigger dehumidifier but now it is throwing off so much heat the tent is pushing 90 degrees F at some points throughout the day so I’m not exactly sure how to fix the issue! Will definitely not be running so many plants in the next run for the 5x5! Hopefully things get better!😅😅

Transplanted Into Micro PC Grow Room On 1/21/19 At 10 am. Experienced Mild Stress As The Leafs Indicated Slight Wilting. 2 Hours After Settling Into Her New Spot. Observed Stress Relief. As The Leaf's Indicated By Stretching Upward For More Light Intake. Will Be Adding Growstones Tomorrow. After A Full Days Rest. All In All Not A Bad Transition Overall! As She Seems To Like Her New Spot. Air Temp Maintaining At A Comfortable 70 Degrees F. With Water At 60 And A Ph At 6.3! Day 9 Second Nodes And Fan Leafs. Roots Are Exploding! Got Here Hooked like A Crack Head On Emerald Goddess Green Crack. Splash'd Her With R.O. Water! Progress Is Stable And Looking Good! Tomorrow Jan 29 begins week 3 and top'n along with low stress training. Will be customizing a metal net file basket into a scog system for the begining of week 4 as I will be training her for vigorous sideway grow to maximize yield. I am just hoping I have the time as i think it will be flowering sometime in the late 4th to middle of the 5th week! Will update with week 3 photos soon!

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. And hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. This is my second feminised cultivation ever. First, I'm just going to say something about my grow room. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps for bloom. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This new strain combines two well-received parents, Juanita la Lagrimosa (Spanish for "Juanita the Tearful") and Royal Highness, which are themselves genetic hybrids of other precursor strains: Juanita the Tearful from Queen Mother and a Mexican-Afghan blend; Royal Highness from Dance Hall and Respect 13. On and on the strains date back in agricultural time, each new variety with its own unique smell, taste, color, high and medical benefit. However, in the past decade, a goal of all this tinkering has been what some producers are starting to call “Royal Respect” with the soul of marijuana's benefits going toward both body and mind. Painkiller XL is notable for its near-equal representation of 6 percent tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and 7 percent cannabidiol (CBD), achieved by a seed that's 70 percent sativa and 30 percent indica. While the sativa variety of cannabis is widely known for producing more of a mental, cerebral high, and indica has a reputation for contributing more toward its physical high, other factors are more important to consider: THC is the compound given most of the credit for that head high, with CBD takes the credit for marijuana's many proven medicinal benefits, which range vastly from relieving pain, anxiety, migraines, fibromyalgia and even mad cow disease to easing many of the most deleterious symptoms of AIDS, diabetes, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease. These are just a handful of the dozens of ailments marijuana is being prescribed to combat by doctors across the globe and in more than a dozen U.S. states. Cooperatives at medical marijuana dispensaries have been at the forefront of providing CBD-rich cannabis buds and oils for their patients, who undoubtedly appreciate being able to purchase the strain best-suited to ease their particular ailments. This new strain joins others rich in both CBD and THC like Euphoria, Royal Medic, Medical Mass and Danceworld that seek to actually not necessarily downplay cannabis' psychoactive effects in favor of optimizing its healing role, but instead equalize the two. According to the California-based Steep Hill Cannabis Analysis Laboratory, this equalization brings to the cannabis user not just the physically healing aspects, but also the spiritually and psychologically healing benefits as well. There are other strains with very little THC and more CBD than Painkiller XL , but rare are such splendid balances. Producers of this strain say it produces a considerable amount of pain relief, with a mild, relieving mental euphoria. With a flowering time of eight weeks, the Painkiller XL seed can produce 525 to 575 grams per plant indoors. Inside, the dried yield is 400 to 450 grams per plant. Inside, the plants average in height at about 31.5 inche (80 cm); outside, the average height is about 53 inches (135 cm), with harvest time at the end of September. THC: 9% CBD: 9% Yield Indoor: 500-550gr m2 Yield Outdoor: 500-550 grams per plant dried Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 120 - 150 cm Flowering time: 8 weeks Harvest month: Late September Genetic background: Juanita la Lagrimosa x Royal Highness Type Sativa: 75%; Indica: 25% Effect: Physical, clear high. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-02. 2 out of 3 Seeds germinated today after 36 h, i planted them in soil and put them in my humidity dome under T5 lights. I hoping the last seed germinates tomorrow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-03. New video of the girls. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-05. 2 out of 3 girls is up and sunning, added video. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-06. New pics. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-07. Kl 22.30. New pics. ----------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-09. Kl 21.00.

8/19 - Start of week two and so far everything is going smoothly. Just watering each day w/ RO water and organic black strap molasses. 8/21 - I think I may have two phenotypes going here. It seems I have two of the faster growing/taller pheno and one of the shorter, slower growing pheno. 8/24 - Doing a 24 hour brew of some compost tea for all my plants. I think these new seedlings will love it. 8/25 - Watered all with compost tea. They seem to be coming along nicely. No issues so far!

Day 8- not much action, rather just preparation. One of which is the transplant into net pots and relocation into the grow room. Also misted roots again in AM as well as propped seedlings that weren't upright and steadfast yet. Day11 - new seedling popped up yesterday, nice surprise. GZ s looking super healthy. The Raspberry Diesel has some long looking first true leaves. Well.see what they look like soon when they hit a nice growth spurt. Can hardly wait!
