Did a top watering this week with some nutes added. Then back to plain RO water in the SIP. Seeing some light burn so lowered the PAR from avg 650 to 550. Tried a Co2 canister but without a proper lung room for this 10 x 5, it was pretty useless. Really getting into this hobby, love the abundance of free knowledge and different techniques available. Starting to resent those who I see bragging about "trade secrets". I've been spending more time in hash making discords, hash making twitch streams, and grower instagrams. It never ceases to amaze me what we can learn for free with some motivation and the internet. *I am growing 4 plants here, but only tracking one.

Week 5 baby! What a smooth ride this has been - these ladies are absolutely flying through veg. Gave them some cooler water today and they're vibing with it 💚 Still keeping nutrients minimal, just 1-2x weekly when they ask for it. Less is more with these girls! 12.01.26 The runtz is really going for it, I had to adjust the light to the maximum. I realized that I wasn't sharing the size of this girl's Blue cheese F1 33cm not topped White Runtz auto 80cm not topped Pineapple Express F1 40 cm topped 16.1.26 The stretch is insane runtz has grown so big I had to give her some minor LST so she dose not go over the light, I did not want to train her at all and see what she has to offer.

18/08/25: Last update before harvest, just about a week to go! Both plants are nearly ready and the differences between them are really starting to shine. One has taken on a stunning red hue over the past days, while the other has faded almost completely, signaling that it’s in its final stage! 😍 The aroma in the garden is intense now. The reddish, Indica-leaning pheno is absolutely dripping with resin and carries a distinct spicy, earthy scent. In contrast, the second plant has focused heavily on bud growth, with a massive main cola and a sweeter, more tropical fragrance. The bud-to-leaf ratio isn’t ideal, but I think that is to be expected when running autos outdoors at 52° latitude, where the climate can be a bit cool and unpredictable. Still, I could not be happier with how they’ve turned out! This being my first time growing autos, it’s been a really rewarding experience. 😁 Also so far I didn't encounter any pests/mold, no issues at all...fingers crossed it stays that way for this last crucial week before the chop! 🤞🏼☀️

Week 8 for Strawberry Gorilla by fastbuds Don't notice much growth to be honest think its due to this plant being in a darkish shed because we've had super strong rain storms pretty much the whole week... Which really isnt ideal at this point😓But seems like the rain is over now LETS HOPE! She was fed once this week with some FPJ, Regulator, Enzym+ & Topbooster by @aptus_portugal right at the start of the week. Humidity has been so high that the pots still seem very heavy. I was thinking she would be done in 2ish weeks but seems like it may take its full life cycle to get her done.

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced. I’ll let this version run for a week before adding anything. 👀👀👀👀👀👀 Observations and changes 👀👀👀👀👀👀 27.10.25 VW27 noticed some min burnt tips so I decreased Calcium Nitrate 45 to → 40g, decided to add two more elements micros and Epsom salts just to make sure they got everything, Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g, Epsom salts: 8 g 28.10.25 VW27 she seems devoid of any deficiencies, seems ready for the flip to 12/12 02.11.25 VW27 girl is looking good so I decided to stop making daily videos and do a standard once a week update. 09.11.25 aVW28 7 days since flip,stretch in full swing, first pistils showing, leaf color deep and healthy. Slight tip burn early week → gone after pH stabilized. Feed stayed clear, no residue, roots clean and sweet-smelling, did what I hope is a last cleanup and pruning🎥 10.11.25 VW29 added Phosphoric acid pH down to the schedule for flowering stage. 14.11.25 FW1 FERMAKOR PK Micros 40 → 50 ml 23.11.25 FW2 got some burnt tips, observe and act accordingly in case it worsens, diluted by 25% for this week. 05.12.25 FW3 about 2 weeks ago Calcium Nitrate 35 g → 25 g, FERMAKOR PK Micros 50 ml → 60 ml 12.12.25 FW4 Calcium Nitrate 25 g → 20 g, FERMAKOR PK Micros 60 ml → 80ml 16.12.25 FW4 Calcium Nitrate 20 g → 17 g, FERMAKOR PK Micros 80 ml → 110 ml 20.12.25 Calcium Nitrate 17 g → 15 g 26.12.25 Ffj fpj 30 →0ml 05.01.26 last feed LST and trimming, harvest is end of the week 09.01.26 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 🌿 Day to day tasks & actions 🌿 🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱💦🌱 Fed about 5l a day of #1 and on the weekends I do a pure FERMAKOR PK flush 2l runoff (*RUNOFF reused for tomato plants) 💧💧💧💧💧💧💧💧💧 🌱 Nutrients in 30 L #1 – FERMAKOR (progression kept) 💧💧💧💧💧💧💧💧💧 Calcium Nitrate (Calcinit / Nitcal): 45 → 40 g → 35 g → 25 g → 20 g → 17 g → 15 g = 1.50 g/L → 1.33 g/L → 1.17 g/L → 0.83 g/L → 0.67 g/L → 0.57 g/L → 0.50 g/L = 207 ppm N / 253 ppm Ca → 184 / 225 → 161 / 197 → 115 / 141 → 92 / 112 → 78 / 96 → 69 / 84 PK Concentrate (FERMAKOR Base): 30 → 40 ml → 50 ml → 60 ml → 80 ml → 110 ml = 1.00 → 1.33 ml/L → 1.67 ml/L → 2.00 ml/L → 2.67 ml/L → 3.67 ml/L → balanced 1:1 P:K + light micros (from extract) Home-made FFJ/FPJ (Fish + Veg): 30 ml → 0 ml = 1.00 ml/L → 0.00 ml/L Epsom Salt (MgSO₄·7H₂O): 8 g = 0.27 g/L → ~26 ppm Mg + ~35 ppm S Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g = 0.017 g/L → Fe 0.7 ppm · Mn 0.7 ppm · Zn 0.3 ppm · Cu 0.3 ppm · B 0.1 ppm · Mo 0.02 ppm Phosphoric Acid (pH down) + Citric Acid (chelation): as needed → First set pH with phosphoric acid, then add a little citric only if you want extra chelation Target pH: 5.8 – 6.0 (drop test yellow-green) 📦 TOTAL (corrected): Liquids (PK + FFJ/FPJ): 60 → 70 → 80 → 90 → 110 → 140 → 110 ml per 30 L = 2.00 → 2.33 → 2.67 → 3.00 → 3.67 → 4.67 → 3.67 ml/L Solids (CaNO₃ + Epsom + Fetrilon): 53.5 → 48.5 → 43.5 → 33.5 → 28.5 → 25.5 → 23.5 g per 30 L = 1.78 → 1.62 → 1.45 → 1.12 → 0.95 → 0.85 → 0.78 g/L YouTube Link: https://youtube.com/-m8h?si=A7x4Zlr2kj-_ga31

Letzte Woche kam ich nur zu kurzen Kontrollen und zum gießen, mehr war leider nicht drinnen. Die Georgia Pie habe ich etwas zu eifrig gegossen, das hat ihr Wachstum etwas verlangsamt, aber sie hat sich super davon erholt und hat wieder schön gesunde Blätter. Die Wurzeln haben den Topf bald vollständig Durchwurzelt und dann wird sie in 25 L Living Soil, gemischt mit Wizzy's Garten, gepflanzt. Es gab etwas Bonus Root Magic, damit sie sich schneller erholt.

Week 7 Day 43 to 49 of flower I fed them half nute flush water this week. Feed this week was 1.25 gallons 1 time. I used 400ppm Bloom concentrate mix (recipe week 5). However, I also added .5ml/gal of CaliMagic (General Hydroponics 1-0-0) and 7ml of Roots Organics HP2 (Aurora Innovations 0-4-0). PH balance this week was 6.3. Since P2 looked mostly ready to harvest I decided to dry out after the first feed this week. Next week is play by ear week. Currently day 48 I plan to harvest p2 tomorrow and leave p1 for another week. So I will feed p1 once more with the same half nute flush water feed that I used this week then let her dry out again.
