Last feeding before the flush, colors starting to show already.

12/18 4am CANNAKAN!!!! Giving my FAST Flowers a try. A late spring early summer grow. CannaKan is my new best friend, I had a 100 per cent success rate last time!!! Ok I got it all done at 5:30 am, I set the Temp to 88 MPH or the Time Machine wont work, EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT! Marty will meet me in the parking lot at the mall, I have a great feeling about this. 11am Room temperature is 73. Heating Pad set to 88. Water temp 77.7 PERFECT!! 2:30pm blue dream is already starting to open. I think Tropicana cookies looks like she’s opening a little bit. They should all be open by tomorrow. It’s only been about nine hours.👍👍. 11:30pm They all opened. I drained the water put in new distilled water, made sure water level was right. Looks great!!!! 12/19 4am The temp looks good, all are opening nicely. I have to get the pots ready now, put on new stickers, they help identify the plants from different angles, especially in photos. Im doing a low power fast turn around grow in easy to move 1 gallon pots. They will all be topped above the 3rd node, then the bottom or 2nd to the bottom branches will be cut off to achieve a 4 cola grow. Very simple, easy to manage. 11am. 2:30pm, 5:30pm..so tired, finish in the morning. 12/20 12 am 1:30am Just finished TC & GS I had a little trouble seating GS, TC no problems, takes a while to learn. BD is still sprouting, not a long enough tail to bury yet. 9am I think im getting another CannaKan. 10am 👍👍👍 12/21 Put BD in the pot, not sure if she will go or not, I'm firing up the CannaKan and doing another, since its a photo I will keep it in Veg until my next grow cycle. I may do a full 3 gallon grow with this one and take clones, this is fun!!!! gardening, who knew? The new filter paper I got is a little thicker than what came with it takes longer to sink, more dramatic, I got medium in that blue box from amazon. 7am Tropicana Cookies is the Winner of fastest to sprout, she looks great! GS has the shell and skin, it could still fall naturally so I'll wait. BD is unchanged. Micro-surgery on TC got the skin off and she popped right open!! 12:30pm SUCCESS!!! 4 hours later, she's PERFECT, worked GREAT!!! I NEVER thought I would be able to do seed surgery. That was my 3rd time doing that, success every single time! 4pm looks good. 12/22 9am. all look great, GS is taking off VERY strong overnight, TC has taken root her main stalk is already thick!! BD #2 is almost ready. I kept BD#1 underwater too long...then I accidentally ripped her head off this morning......so really not my fault......shhhhh..... 1 pm BD looks perfect 🤩 almost ready. 330pm Did the transplant...I really need to work on that....so nervous when I do it. Im not paid for this but CannaKan is one of the best products Ive ever used. I need lots of practice planting the radicles ...""In botany, the radicle is the first part of a seedling (a growing plant embryo) to emerge from the seed during the process of germination. The radicle is the embryonic root of the plant, and grows downward in the soil (the shoot emerges from the plumule)""..... I had to look radicle up... It makes a complete difference, I dont lose seeds now It just a million times easier using CannaKan.

Rain finally came

Lumberjack today!!

Day 84 - June 25 June 25 - 09.30AM Trichomes still not ready at 50/50 milky to cloudy. Soil is still moist. Will water either late this evening or tomorrow morning. I suspect this will be the second or last watering before chop. June 25 - 09.00PM Removed a dead leaf - I want to remove some of the dying leaves on the colas, as underside of plant has a beautiful purple hue to the leaves. June 26 - 08.45AM Trichomes are starting to turn milky, with 60/40 milky to cloudy ratio. Will water this evening as pot is getting lighter + soil isn't as moist. June 26 - 01.20PM Purple is here. I think it's time to chop tomorrow as I'm seeing more ambers. I'm noticing some bright green growth which I hope isn't the start of nanners. June 26 - 01.20PM Watered 3L. Chop tomorrow. June 27 - 00.00AM CHOPPED (Day 86). . June 27 - 00.00AM Inspected detached calyx with strange (I suspect pistil) growth. Many amber trichomes found. Strange, given colas I inspected were all cloudy with no amber, but this calyx (located at centre of plant) had plenty of amber trichomes. Perhaps this is due to recieving a higher than expected DLI at hotspot of light. . June 27 - 00.00AM Underside of Buds are underdeveloped in comparison - easily due to light blockage. I aimed not to defoliate as she entered flower, but perhaps with better LST and leaf tucking I could've produced more even yield. . June 27 - 00.00AM Trimmed Fan leaves and mostly necrotic foliage - want to avoid bud-rot at all costs, but I may have over-defoliated. . June 27 - 00.00AM Drying hanging upside down with oscilating fan above (2/10) and one beneath driving air toward a wall of the tent. There's also an extraction fan at the top of the tent. . June 27 - 00.00AM Humidity 60-62% & Temperature 64-66F. . June 27 - 02.45PM Temperature is rising in the tent to 69F, inside a sealed bathroom room. Sealed Bathroom offers no light leakage, but I might need to open the door and allow light + cool air in. . June 27 - 03.45PM Moved tent out of bathroom to get cooler air. Tent temperature was just under 70F. I've likely lost some flavour over a few hours - but now that it's in a cooler environment (with slight light leakage) - things should improve. . June 27 - 03.45PM Temperature & Humidity are 66F and 60% respectively. . June 27 - 04.00PM (16 hours since chop) . June 27 - 04.05PM Added portable cooling unit to intake, this should drop temperature by a degree or two hopefully. Ensured Fans weren't directly in path of buds. . June 27 - 04.30PM Humidity is 66%, I've increased oscilating fan speed to 5/10 to combat this. . June 27 - 08.50PM Humidity is 60%. Temperature is 66F . July 1 - 09.00PM Branches still bend - not snap. Will trim and start cure process tomorrow. Leaves shrivelled up. . July 2 - 10.00AM Rough Trim, and placed into cure jars. 58% RH and 60% RH Probably should have harvested last night. Will maintain RH in jars via burping. Roughly 2oz (56g) of bud harvested.

Day 14 of FLOWER/ day 63 of grow: Starting on day 9-10 of flower we started seeing those first little white hairs coming out.. around day 12-13 buds have actually started forming and almost every plant now is in that stage of growth kosher Kush #1 (front middle) had a Little bit of problems with nutrients and pH so after fixing that last week the plant itself started to takeoff almost done stretching so now we’re actually starting to see those bud sites starting to grow! The BlueBerry by Seedsman was definitely a Wild Card .. it is still stretching ! Today I’m going to go in and do some LST/HST but honestly I’m not too worried about having equal light penetration on the entire canopy because I have so many full spectrum LED’s I can adjust and move the lights as needed for full light exposure to the other plants. I’ve been starting a new feed and they seem to love it ! The dry amendments are starting to dissipate and you can tell that the plants are getting hungrier and hungrier ! After feeding them .5 gallons of feed within 12 hours they are itching for their next feeding. The smell in the tent is a very Kushy smell with some skunky undertones from the washing machine.. I’m using my own kind of support for these flowers because I didn’t want to go through the haste of a Scrog net it almost felt too crowded and it was just asking to snap a branch. Instead I’m using 4 ft long wooden poles and running them through each other creating a scrog pattern! So far so good with this set up! (Experiment): with the blueberry clone I have just left it a little bit to the side and it has exploded at first it was about 1 inch tall and was barely growing anything.. after moving it into the 12/12 tent it has stretched over 10 inches tall with about 8 to 10 bud sites honestly I’m quite excited to smoke on her!! PS I’m doing the entire cycle in a solo cup! Thank you guys so much for reading/watching I can’t wait to show you guys next weeks progress and I’ve got something new coming up in a couple days.. so keep an eye out! ~GARCIA’S GARDEN🌹

7/12 Soil was a little damp so I watered lightly only what looked like it needed it. Dr. Zymes seems to have no negative effects. Plants just look super clean. I still saw some patches of PM and I only had the free samples so I'm going to have to use another product in conjunction to treat this. Overall I'm pretty impressed with the Dr. Zymes. HAD MY VIDEO AND TONS OF PICS UPLOADED BUT THIS SITE WOULDN'T ALLOW ME TO SAVE. I'LL UPLOAD THE REST LATER "IF" THIS EVEN ALLOWS ME TO SAVE. Went back over at three and watered the girls. Everything looks amazing. Trying to upload video now. 7/13 Didn't water this morning. Plants look fantastic. Went over at 4:30pm. Things looked great. Definitely stretching. I took some good pictures. Didn't water as plants seemed VERY happy and soil still had a little moisture. I gave them a touch of kindness which means I gave them a tiny bit of water to hold them over until morning. I know this is not a good practice to get into but I didn't want to come back to wilting plants. The little seedlings are turning more lime green (which isn't good) and have some yellow leaves. They have recycled soil from last grow. May need to feed more. I went through them and moths flew everywhere. We have a major brown tail moth problem here. I know I just sprayed Dr. Zymes but I'm going to have to spray BT. I must've seen at least half a dozen moths. On just those three tiny plants. Still struggling with PM. 7/14 Went to the garden briefly this morning. It rained last night and was drizzling while I was there so I obviously didn't water. Its still sprinkling and I'll be over there later to check. Plants are really stretching into "the asparagus" stage as I like to call it lol. What will eventually be a bunch of colas stretch into what I think looks like asparagus spears. That may be part of the reason why some of the leaves turn yellow and die in the lower middle canopy during this time. Everything looks great though and I certainly have plenty of leaves. I looked at last year's diary at this date and got some relief noticing the same things happening last year at the same time of year. UPDATE: Went back to the grow as the "rain" and "thunder showers" weren't producing much water. I checked the soil and it seemed to have dried out some (more on smaller bags) and hadn't FULLY watered the plants. I watered lightly. I listened and I could hear the water work it's way down the medium. Even if it pours tonight plants will be ready for a feed tomorrow. The 3 little ones in buckets outside especially. I have work to do tomorrow. 7/15 It's overcast today and looks like rain. Forecast called for a nice sunny day. Anyway I fed two gallons to nutes to the garden and did some slight defoliation. I had to hurry as I had a doctor's appointment. I have branches that need to be tied down and plants need to be cleaned up a bit. If it's not raining I may do a preventative BT spray. We have a HORRENDOUS outbreak of brown tail moths. I don't think the bother cannabis but they are poisonous and the rash that develops is hell. 90 degrees at 6:30 plants weren't totally dry but the top inch or so was so I gave them a good drink. Took some pictures and a video I'll upload when I have a better connection. Cop was watching me. Good thing I'm in a legal state and my grow is totally on point. 7/16 No water this morning. Soil was still wet. Plants are looking good. Will update more later on. Defoliation, pruning and spraying are on the agenda. Made a video and took more pictures but internet is spotty and doesn't want to upload. Went back and watered lightly before a massive thunder storm dropped sheet rain for like an hour. Internet is still slow so I'll have to wait till tomm to upload. 7/17 No water. Brown tail moth rash is driving me crazy. Plants still stretching and look overall healthy. Defoliated some this morning. Will update more later. Went back over and gave a little water before it began to downpour. 7/18 Raining with what looks like more rain in the forecast. Good. Hopefully will help me lower the pH a little. I didn't take pictures or even go in the cage this morning. This brown tail moth rash has me scared lol. It really sucks. Makes poison ivy seem pleasant. When rain stops BT will be sprayed.

10/28 - First week in the books. I figured now would be as good a time as any to use a sprouted seed tea because the plants seem to be starting to fully stretch. Pistils are coming slowly but surely. Canopy isn't full but it's still the best I've ever done and I'll take that knowledge into future grows. Exciting weeks ahead. Crazy to think in two weeks it will look more like the finished product than the plants you see before you. I'll take them out for a photo shoot this weekend. The amount times I will be taking them out of the tent will be limited from here-on-out. These plants are getting cumbersome.

Started Training Late! Was on summer holiday for a week and only started training now. Above are the plants during training as well as a few hours after training. Autos are definitely more delicate and the two runts are growing slow but yet still showing some progress. Changed my bulbs back to the CMH set to 400w each (2) Also gave them a good amount of water as the FloraCaps aren’t covering the whole pot I felt like it was necessary to wet the entire grow medium well for a change. Some of them were a bit far along for training but I did the best I could. Also the Purple Lemonade and 2 other plants are showing signs of flowering.

Day 28 - These ladies are growing like crazy! 2 of them are already almost as tall as my white widow autos that are about 2 weeks ahead! Day 30 - Still stretching like crazy, starting to look much better though I have to say! Day 32 - Ladies are starting to get nice & purple!

I have now trimmed and hung the plant after 9 weeks of flowering

Buds fattening up and pistols turning orange. Some floral, skunky, diesel smell but nothing crazy, which is nice. Looking at the trichomes at Day 45, 4 weeks before planned harvest, they are looking milky. Which is weird. Maybe I’m wrong?

She was super easy to grow. After figuring out she loved to feed, I began mixing her own nutrients separately and within a week had any deficiencies in check. She kept to a regular cycle of regular feed, light feed, then straight ph’d water. This kept her healthy all throughout. No signs of disease or pests, she performed Like a champ and ended up giving me a little over 6 oz of dense gassy buds. She took a full 10 weeks, and I probably could have given her a few more days, but she is already a very potent smoke, something that is great in the day time for me. For the price of these beans, $45 for 5 feminized seeds, I would highly recommend the 34 street seed Pink Kush strain 🇨🇦👊❤️

Ho preso oidio presto spruzzo la cura

Leaves leaves lots of leaves Trim took a while so plan accordingly Growing is easy really easy no issues The strain does seem to be able to grow well on lower nuets than we used, maybe 10-20% less. Bea dry yield 255 grams fixed the video Hero dry yield 271 grams 526 total

Chopped and hanging in the smaller tent, I’ll be back with edits for jarring and curing… The Acapulco Gold smells like sour green apple WarH3ad candies 🍏 leaves my nose tingling. The Laughing Buddha smells tropical, lot going on in its profile I’m not quite sure what kind of fruit cocktail it reminds me most of but it’s more sweet and creamy. Next up, I moved 4x clones of the Laughing Buddha into the 4x4 tent, and setup drip irrigation. 💧I’ll start up that log soon. 🤘 I’m high.. HIGHLY recommend grabbing these strains from Barney’s Farm. 🏆

***Sponsored Grow*** = Medic || https://medicgrow.com || Grow = ***Sponsored Grow*** This week was fun, realized I was giving my plants close to 60DLI vs 40DLI so I lowered the lights back down to 80% they should be within the range of 38-42DLI depending on specs, I lack a tools to monitor this in house so have to go off of specs and calculations I have from manufacture and other people who reviewed the lights online. main big one is 2.8 vs 2.2 effectivity on the diodes. Noted that the white dandruff coming out the runoff was indeed spring tails. looks like they have made a home in my medium and I don't care. must be eating all the dead shit. Still ph'ing my water up to combat the acidic whatever in the pots. maybe this is from the spring tails or bacteria in there. good thing is they eat mold and other nastiness in the soil. I do think I messed up quite a bit on this grow, I am hoping the next one will be better. First time using liquid feed vs dry soil amendments. The seedsman plants are doing quite well vs the others, the spread out habit of this plant is allowing lots of light to hit all the bud sites. and I keep getting different smells off of it depending on the day and the last time I watered. Will know its true profile when I can chop and cure. Guessing this will be about 2-4 weeks out. Till next week. ***Sponsored Grow*** Official Website: https://medicgrow.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/medicgrowled Twitter: https://twitter.com/medicgrow Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/medicgrow420/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNmiY4F9z94u-8eGj7R1CSQ Growdiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled https://growdiaries.com/grow-lights/medic-grow

Hello Diary. The fifth week of flowering is over, and Fat Banana is slowly completing its cycle. Ten more days and we have a harvest. 😍 The “farm” is a real jungle, her roommates Haze Berry Auto have grown quite big but I think Fat Banana Auto will be leaving the “Farm” sooner. 😀 All the larger leaves on the plant have turned yellow and got pretty big brown spots, is it due to some problems caused by my treatment or is Fat Fat Banana just coming to the end of its cycle? I'm not entirely sure. (lack of experience) 😏 The flowers themselves look healthy, and smell like the finest sweets. The sweet-fruity scent overwhelms me as soon as I open the box. 😋 The flowers are compact and very sticky, as far as I can see now, it will be a good harvest. 💪 As we approached the end, I stopped adding nutrients and watered only with water to which I only regulated p.H. at 6.4. In my case, it's a reduction because my house water is around 7.5 - 8.1 p.H, so I use Plagron's Lemon Kick for the descent, which does a good job. 👌 Here's what the week looked like. 15/11/2020 - Day 52. Watering. Only water, without any nutrients with regulated p.H. at 6.4 Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.5 degrees and 47% humidity. 18/11/2020 - Day 55. Watering. Procedure as three days earlier. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.2 degrees and 48% humidity. 19/11/2020 - Day 56. Photographing plants. As always, on the last day of the current week I am taking photos of “my little farm”. 😉 That’s it for this week, a little more and I will enjoy the fruits of the effort these past weeks. Thanks to everyone who takes a look at the diary and I hope that this information will be useful to someone. See you soon. 🙌
