I let the girls spend the whole week getting used to their new home and recover from their transplant shock before I began Low Stress Training (LST). Everything looks great in my opinion. A little on the smaller side for being so far along but I think they will burst in growth in the coming weeks. Don't forget that they will double in size during the initial flowering period. I plucked a few leaves off and tied down 2-4 branches on each plant and will continue to tie down more throughout this week. I want to keep a nice even canopy from here on out. Depending on how fast these ladies grow, I think I will be able to start super cropping soon. I'd like to get my SCROG net up so that I can start weaving branches as they continue to stretch. This is the key to getting a good yield when working with a small area such as a 5x5 tent. I expect anywhere from 28-36oz which is around 2lbs. Of course good lighting, nutrients, and good genes go a long way but sometimes you just need that extra boost to get you there and these techniques are what has worked for me (LST, SCROG, Super Cropping). The only thing I think I am lacking is Co2. I have read that I could increase my yield by up to 40%. That's incredible! I'm going to have to do some research on pricing and see what I can work out. Thanks for checking in!

The heat stress is always a problem in my grows but now I have a new climatization system that can really help me !

Hice un riego con aceite de neem y jabón potasico debido a unas pocas moscas de sustrato que estaban rondando las plantas, espero haber matado los huevos que hayan puesto, si veo más lo repetiré la otra semana.

This week I transplanted them into their final homes, 2 liter mountain dew bottles. I cut tiny holes 2" up from the bottom to create a reservoir. My plan is to fill a 2x2 tent with these 2liters. Next week I flip to 12/12. Plants are barely 6-7".

Welcome to my week number 3. In first, those ladies are pretty without any hint of deficit. Cali genetic showing their dominance agains other brands. (Just my personal opinion) Before few days we made a cut under sixth floor, now ladies makes some nice curves. I can not wait till I switch to the 12/12 Happy growing guys✌️🏽

7th week began today(Day 42). Girls are looking healthy and nice. They have devoured the whole growing space by now. The one on bottom right lost most of its roots while transplanting because of my mistake. She has made an incredible fast recovery, some of her leafs fell after the incident but she has now reached almost the same size as the others. * Is outdoor plant that was saved from the forest when the weather began to go too cold for hemp to develop any further. She is now inside since 3 weeks and is due to ripen in one week or so.

Always a huge yielded and a heavy hitter. Name is true to the effect. A little tough to get back ahead if you get deficient so remember she eats a lot. My favorite strain, have had the cut for over 2 years.

12/8 Pushing her into ripening. She has recovered nicely and she's coasting for the next few weeks until harvest. Im taking her one week earlier as I want her a little bit earlier in her window. 12/10 Just checking in and showing off some of her tricromes.

3era semana. El efecto de "Amazonia" se ve reflejado en las hojas hacía arriba adorando al sol. Se la ve linda y creciendo con fuerza. Al menos 0.5cm por día. Finalizando el día 19 de su crecimiento le hice una poda apical. Por su estructura sativa y mí poco espacio decidí hacer topping y poner hacer un guiado con lst para luego poner la malla de scrog. Día 21 me olvidé de regar y se achicharraron las dos primeras hojas por deshidratación. Después de regar se la ve linda y feliz.

Hey fellow gardeners, Unfortunately, I couldn't complete this diary earlier because was busy with family stuff and work. So finally here we go with the last chapter of this wonderful grow session. Thanks for Barneys for another masterpiece, we had a truly unforgettable journey with this breed. Its a bit difficult to remember after so long time but we try to collect the most important feelings and thoughts.🌞 So i decided to choose this time a hybrid strain to complement our most sativa collection. The seeds germinated in no time and we were able to put them in the first small pot after only 3 days, after another 3 days except one, they emerged from the soil so the fun could begin. The vegetative phase was actually easy and vigorous, but we made a mistake that made it a little longer than planned. Luckily the broken main stem healed really fast so this extra week wasn't so bad. In this phase we had an experience that we never had before, and yes this was the 13 finger leaf which means that the plants seem doing very well.🌱😎 When we entered the flowering period I was afraid they wouldn't stretch enough as other growers reported. Luckily these ladies got lanky and even didn't want to stop the stretching, which was cause for concern because the time for the last defoliation and lollypop session was almost there. At around day 23 of flowering we made the last trainings and we finally could sit back and watch the magic happen. It was really touching and lovely to see how the colors and aromas change from week to week as autumn approaches. Basically, we could distinguish two phenotypes. One with the purple silk on the leaves and a smaller but rock hard bud structure. The smell of this lady was more pine and sweet at the same time. The other 3 ladies were pretty much the same when it comes to smell and bud structure. Sweet and fruity aromas were characteristic here. Apart from the previous ones, both phenotypes were characterized by cinnamon scent throughout the whole flowering period. It can definitely be said that it is the most frosty variety i have ever grown. I am really satisfied with the outcome in every aspects. First the purple pheno went to darkness with our DWC lady and after two days the other 3. Dried them for 7 days at 21 degrees and 60% humidity and for another 5 days at 50% humidity.⚔️ Trimming these variety was a bit challenging threw the closed bud structure but it wort all the time. We ended up with 368 grams of juicy, rock hard dried buds and 48 grams of larf and popcorn. After placed it into glass jars with Boveda 62% humidity pack. Was a very pleasant strain to grow. I would like to thank everyone who has had a look, liked or commented on this diary. Hope its been helpful in some way. Cant wait for the next journey which will start hopefully at the end of august. Stay safe Growmies and have a lovely week!💚

Day: 9 I'm considering replacing a cpl of these with different seeds. They are already behind schedule-1 OG Kush and the Gorilla Girl. Any tips varigation on leaves? I just gave them there first feeding of Big Buds and Blooms (N5) after the 24 hour Superthrive wait period. Both Superthrive and NPPK were used at 1/4th the strength called for on the lable. Nighty Night girls. Going to bed wet is not ideal but they needed a full watering bad..hoping I didn't over water (purified water) Some of the soil just does not seem to get wet in these pots. weak leggy blackberry kush has some wind tonite. Hoping to boost stem strength. they are trying to fall over from the weight. Day 10: made little stakes from coated wire. Repositioned the Gorilla Girl for a third time. You can see that part of the stem looks white from being underground. Still gonna give it a little more time. Otherwise, all are seemingly fine after first feeding. Day 11: applied SuperThrive and my Gorilla Girl turned yellow for a few hours. Glad she is resilient!!! Day 12 thru 20. So my PH meter was wrong and I have been watering with 9+ water for the first 2 weeks. i had 2 ph meters in case this happened but one is for soil...new grower mistake. So...I've lost precious time on my aotos and my gorilla girl is ...lord help meh..she don't look too good. All are alive in spite of my noobness. I'll post some pics that should have a disclaimer stating this is not what your plants should look like at 20 days in. Also had to transplant into non-waxlined pots. This is not the best experience to show publicly but new growers can maybe learn from my mistakes.

Massive fattening this week from the Lemon AK, shes a big one. Another 2-3 weeks and she might be ready! Zkittles is maturing, but slower than i had hoped :( another week at least i think. but thats about what everyone else gets. Both of these plants are very true to their names and smell spot on. Lower nute intake seems to be working somewhat so im gonna keep it this way till the end.

Big week! With alot to say here!! The first two apace mango that I harvested two weeks ago, finished up drying at 10 days. I trimmed them up today nice and pretty! These were the smallest two plants of this strain in this run, and the yield reflects that. I find that with autoflowers, the bigger the plant, the longer it takes to mature. With the amount of LST I use, my plants tend to take longer than if I were to let them go without lst.. but, its well worth the reward. 1st two harvested yielded 125 grams od high quality, marketable quality flower. After dry period. And 7 grams of high quality, first run, dry sift kief. Next order of business. Harvest 3rd plant on Thursday of this week. (Today is Sunday). I currently have it drying in a tent. (Along with a Northern lights that isnt in a diary). She will dry this entire week, and i may have havest numbera on her when i updated this diary again! Looking 🔥🔥 LAST ORDER OF BUSINESS I hve attached photos of the final 2 space mango from this run. They are by far the largest plants and will be the highest yielding from this run. I expect around 4 ounces from each plant. Give or take. Plants are fading nicely, and i am currently still feeding only water. I have attached photos first of the remaining two space mango plants that are still building. 2nd. I attached photos of the processed flower from the first two harvested on this run.

All the plants grow nicely! The Gorilla Cookies #2 bent because of its stretch but I added a tutor and it recovered really well. I also added one to the Gorilla Cookies #1 to prevent it from bending. Next week, I will select the 3 best ones and put them in their final pot 😎 Plants heights at the end of the week : ------------------------------------------- Gorilla Cookies 1 : 14.5cm Gorilla Cookies 2 : 15cm Purple Lemonade 1 : 12.5cm Purple Lemonade 2 : 12.5cm Wedding Cheesecake 1 : 15cm Wedding Cheesecake 2 : 15.5cm
