Fungus gnats coming with the soil might take the chance to come out now for breeding. i'm waiting with a 9 mm rifle. in the past i found 6 gnats in 2 of 8 x 50 l biobizz lightmix bags coming out of the soil. i could eliminate every single gnat successfully ;) rotating harvest: the little ones will be harvested completely when ready. at this point only the top branches of the big ones will be cut...and the new (basic-watered) pots of the new grow will move into the tent. 2-3 weeks later the secod half of the big ones will be cut and the second half of the new grow will move in... nutes: biobizz / soil: biobizz lightmix bloom,grow,topmax,activera,algamic + aminopower instead of bio heaven (too expensive) individual feeding schedule/once a week: veg: 200 - 600 ppm bloom: 600 - 900 ppm water: ro-water with: veg: 100-150 ppm calmag bloom: 150 ppm calmag

Finished trimming the GSC tonight after a 6 day dry. Buds are very sticky and the jars smell like chocolate chip cookies. Lots of 3.5G+ buds (dry). Dry weight is about 88g of buds and 17g of shake/popcorn. Granddaddy Purple #1 is still drying, GDP #2 came out to about 70 of buds and 20g of popcorn/shake. Planning to make concentrates with the shake and popcorn. Even after no cure, I have sampled both GDP and GSC. GDP is my favorite (but GDP has always been my all time favorite) but GSC smells, looks, and tastes better. Planning to let them cure 8 weeks in Amber Ball 32oz Mason Jars, hoping for good final product. Feel like I didn’t do too bad for a first grow! Learned a lot! Cherry Pie & Wedding Cake next!

**Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 22/02/19 || To/Hasta: 28/02/19 From day/Desde día: 1 || To day/Hasta día: 7 -----INTRO----- Hi Buds!!, this is my new diary, the first i made while growing, as the other diaries i have were made close or after harvest. This is my second indoor grow, you can check my first indoor grow here (Auto BlueBerry Mazar x4): - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 Also i have a couple of diaries of an outdoor grow series (my first grow experience) that i made this summer, there you will find Lemon Zkittle, Think Big, Auto GlueBerry, Critical + 2.0 Auto, Auto Girl Scout Cookies & Auto Mazar (some are in progress and some are to come), check my user page if you are interested: https://growdiaries.com/grower/abducted. This time i'm going to grow 2 different Feminized Strains, 2 x Gorilla Glue @Dinafem & 2 x Money Maker @StrainHunters, i will make separate diaries as suggested by @GrowDiaries. You can find the Gorilla Diary here: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25675-makingmoney-with-gorilla-mm-vs-gorilla My expectations inspired by @TOTEM awesome Man-Linning Dr. Grinspoon plant (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/18090-dr-grinspoon-by-totem) are to try to perform a small Man-lining in both plants or in one of them, i'm still guessing. I'n not trying to reach the kind of monster TOTEM has, as i don't have equipment nor even place. Also i want a max 3,5 months grow, so i'm planning 4 or 5 weeks of growing, and my pots are just 8l, but i want to see where i reach with a feminized strain and with the equipment i have, trying to apply technics for first time. I just LST'ed a Lemon Zkittle, but i wasn't a really LST. -----IMAGES & VIDEOS----- Photo 1: Seeds stocked from summer Video 5: Timelapsed planting non germinated seeds Photo 9: Somangos at back, they've grown almost wild outdoors, tomorrow (02/03/19) i will harvest them. You can see the first weeks of that Somangos in this diary (weeks 1 to 7): https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 Video 16: Timelapsed transplantation -----WEEK SUMMARY----- This week is the setting up medium week, the day 21 (22 already as were 4:40 a.m.) i prepared small pots with soil as seen on images and videos and buried the seeds at about 1 cm deep, in this case 2 Gorillas and 2 Money Makers. After buried i irrigated the pots with 2 syringes of 60 ml on each. And put them under a 50W Led (pink/purple light), you can see the process in video 5. The first gorilla (A.Gorilla) showed itself few minutes past day 23, the day 24 at about 00:00, the second Gorilla (B.Gorilla) emerged the same day 24 at 15:44, the first Money Maker (B. Money) appeared the day 24 between 23:30 & 00:00 and the last money (A.Money) appeared the day 25 at 13:50. The day 28 i transplanted the babies to 8 l pots (Root Poch), you can see the process in video 16. -----WATERING CALENDAR----- 22/02/19 - 120 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 24/02/19 - 10 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 (over buried seed) 28/02/19 - 1.500 ml with all week nutrients @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 (Setting up the 8l pot) *****ESPAÑOL***** **Encontrarás la traducción a español al final de la descripción** From/Desde: 22/02/19 || To/Hasta: 28/02/19 From day/Desde día: 1 || To day/Hasta día: 7 -----INTRO----- ¡Muy buenas compañeros!, este es nuevo diario, el primero que seguiré mientras se desarrolla la plantación, ya que los demás que he escrito lo he hecho con la cosecha a punto o ya realizada. Esta es mi segunda experiencia indoor, podéis ver la primera en este diario (Auto BlueBerry Mazar x4): - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 También tengo unos cuantos diarios que forman una serie de cultivos correspondientes a lo que he plantado este verano, que ha sido mi primera experiencia. En ellos encontrarás las genéticas Lemon Zkittle, Think Big, Auto GlueBerry, Critical + 2.0 Auto, Auto Girl Scout Cookies y Auto Mazar (unos los estoy desarrollando ahora mismo y otros están por venir), si están interesado visita mi página de GrowDiaries: https://growdiaries.com/grower/abducted. Esta vez voy a crecer 2 genéticas feminizadas diferentes, 2 Gorilla Glue de @Dinafem y 2 Money Maker de @StrainHunters, haré diarios separados como recomienda @GrowDiaries. Podéis encontrar el diario de las Gorilla aquí: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/25675-makingmoney-with-gorilla-mm-vs-gorilla Mis expectativas para este cultivo son introducirme en alguna técnicas de cultivo, inspirado por la increíble Dr.Grinspoon de @TOTEM alineada desde el principio (https://growdiaries.com/diaries/18090-dr-grinspoon-by-totem). Voy a intentar hacer una alineación principal pequeña en una de las plantas o en ambas, aún estoy decidiéndome. Por supuesto no voy a intentar crear un monstruo como el de TOTEM, pues no tengo ni el espacio ni el equipo adecuados, además de que quiero que el cultivo no me sobrepase los 3 meses y medio, por lo que planeo hacer 4 o 5 semanas de crecimiento únicamente, también está el hecho de que mis tiestos son de 8 litros que no es demasiado, por lo que quiero ver hasta donde llego con una genética feminizada y el equipo que tengo, intentando aplicar las técnicas de cultivo principales por primera vez. Este verano le hice LST a una Lemon Zkittle, pero no fue un LST verdadero. -----IMAGENES & VÍDEOS----- Foto 1: Mi stock de semillas desde verano Vídeo 5: plantando las semillas en TimeLapse Foto 9: En el fondo unas Somangos, han crecido medio salvajes en exteriores, mañana (02/03/19) haré la cosecha. Podéis ver las primeras semanas de estas Somangos en las 7 primeras semanas de este diario: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/24700-auto-bbmazar-x-4-1rst-indoor-60-to-90 Vídeo 16: Transplante en TimeLapse -----SUMARIO SEMANAL----- Esta semana es la de configuración del entorno de cultivo, el día 21 (22 ya pues eran las 4:40 a.m.), preparé unos tiestos pequeños con tierra como se ve en las imágenes y vídeos, y planté las semillas a aproximadamente 1 cm de profundidad, en este caso 2 semillas Gorilla y 2 Money Makers. Después de plantar las semillas regué los tiestos echando 2 jeringas de 60 ml en cada uno. Después dejé los tiestos bajo un foco led de 50W (rosa/morado), podéis ver este proceso en el vídeo 5. la primera Gorilla (A.Gorilla) apareció unos minutos pasado el día 23, el 24 a las 00:00 +/-, la segunda Gorilla (B.Gorilla), salió el mismo día a las 15:44, la primera Money Maker en aparecer (B.Money) apareció también el día 24 entre las 23:30 y las 00:00 y la última que pareció fue la otra money (A.Money) el día 25 a las 13:50 El día 28 transplanté a lso tiestos definitivos de 8l de la marca (Root Poch), podéis ver el proceso en el vídeo 16. -----CALENDARIO DE RIEGO----- 22/02/19 - 120 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 24/02/19 - 10 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.4~0.5 E.C. PH5.5 (sobre las semillas) 28/02/19 - 1.500 ml con todos los nutrientes semanales @ 0.4~0.5 E.C.

12/30/23 - Day 54 - Hello All! I started this week a day early. I wanted to update everyone on something I have been thinking about a lot. Curing. I feel if there was a hole in my growing skills it would be curing. Last grow there was more than I had anticipated. I was not set up for curing 1 lb. I threw in an audible at the last minute. It worked out but I know I can improve with some trial and error and hands-on experience. So after reading a ton, and going off of some of my prior builds for drying, I came up with this design. I have a controller that will turn the air on and will run when the contents inside the box hit whatever RH% I want to set it at. I think the first week I will set it for 78%RH, then every couple of days go down a % until I hit 62%. The thought is that if the bucket gets above the set RH% then the air will kick on and distribute air across the buds until the RH% is back down to where you want it. It will force the humidity out. I won't need to worry about burping. It will happen on its own.... in theory. Ill update tomorrow with some pictures after the water change. 12/31/23 - Day 55 - Everything is looking good. The water change completed this morning while I was in the shower. Its adding nutes now and will do so over the next hour or so. She is starting to get stinky. I had to add the extra carbon filter to the room. I've got some pics up top of that. Happy New Year! Next time I post it will be in 2024! Have a great night and be safe! Dont drink and drive, your life and anyone else involved in an accident is too important! C' YA! 1/4/24 - Day 58 - I have been thinking of trimming her for a while.... I got a comment on the bushy-ness and I got self-conscious and gave her a trim. Lol I have been going bath and forth for a while and that gave me the push to give her a little trim. She looks great and is growing really quickly. Ill update with more pics as it goes along.

Hello Growmies, The final chapter of this incredible journey has unfolded, and it's time to share the bountiful harvest and reflections on the entire cultivation process. Trimming the plant was a joy, and with gentle fingers, I removed all the large fan leaves. The precision in this process revealed the true beauty of the buds, setting the stage for a smooth harvest. With care and gratitude, the plant was chopped, and the buds were hung to dry. The anticipation for what lies ahead only adds to the sense of accomplishment. The wet weight, excluding fan leaves, stands at an impressive 782 grams. The buds are massive, a testament to the efficacy of the nutrients used, particularly the Power Buds. The name seems apt, as the result is a collection of sticky, dense buds with subtle lemon notes and sweet pungent undertones. In the final moments, the plant unveiled some delightful purple hues. While I wish I could have allowed them to intensify further, it's a reminder that each grow is a learning experience. In hindsight, a slightly longer fading period would have accentuated those beautiful colors. We live and learn, and that's the essence of this journey. A heartfelt thank you to Plagron and Zamnesia for hosting this amazing contest. The quality of the products and the support throughout the journey have been invaluable. As this chapter concludes, I'm left with a sense of fulfillment and gratitude for the collective experience we've shared. The plant's growth, from seed to harvest, has been a testament to the art and science of cultivation. Feel free to check out my other adventures in my bigger environments, until then...happy growing! Stay Lifted Salokin

Esta ha sido una semana de intenso trabajo para las plantas a las que realicé poda apical y lst con un espacio de tiempo corto para la recuperación, pero respondieron genial. Parece que a esta variedad le puedes hacer cualquier cosa. Ni excesos ni carencias de nutrientes

Esta semana tocó la poda de los apicales y primer nudo dejando solo 4 nudos por planta. Por lo que parece tienden a grandes hojas e internodos cortos. Esta semana también aumenté la potencia del lumatex hasta el 75% unos 220W. Empecé con 100 W luego fueron 150 y ahora 220 , así hasta cambiar el fotoperiodo a 12/12h. Entonces al 100%, 300W. Con 26 dias de vida ya tenian suficientes nudos, ramas y tocó hacer el apical y la poda del primer nudo a todas dejando 4 nudos por planta, 8 ramas secundarias. Terminamos la semana con la nº5 con manchas en las hojas muy feas. Entiendo que tengo que tratarla diferente al resto por lo que la regaré menos y dejaré secar más entre riegos al menos un par de veces.

the plants are not too leafy but still need a bit defoliation around week 3 and 6 of flower, depending on how u grow this ofcourse next time i would bend them more in the net. anyway the buds are rockhard even at the bottom where there was no light.

The weather is suddenly getting pretty cold outside so I have to take the plant inside so she can sleep in a warm place. The next few days should get warm again Found a bug on my plant on Sept. 24th, think they might be thrips After removing the bug I sprinkled the plant with a rape oil and water solution

Los geht es mit dem Testgrow der Medic Grow Mini-Sun 2 mit 500W! Auf 100x100cm, in einem gedämmten Growroom, baue ich 2x Sensi Skunk an und versuche den Raum mit diversen Techniken so weit es geht auszufüllen. In dieser Woche habe ich aber erst mal das selbst gebaute DWC System einsatzfertig gemacht und den Sämling eingesetzt. Das DWC System besteht aus einem 30L Eimer, einer Aquaforte Luftpumpe mit 30L Luft pro Minute und 2x Aquaforte Ausströmer mit 20cm Durchmesser. Zum Ende der Vegi Woche 1 hat sich schon so einiges getan, aber schaut euch die Bilder an!

Beginning of week 8 and seems like a long way to go. Most of the hairs still white. Hopefully the buds will fill in more! As right now I’m planning to take it 10+ weeks. This week I will lower the CO2 slowly 50 PPM every day until I will reach 800PPM. Also I will lower the light intensity by 2% every day. This week I lowered the day temp to 79 degrees and next week I’m playing to lower it every further to 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Water temp is at 68 degrees and probably from week 9 I will lower it to 66. Beginning of week 8 TDS is at 550PPM. I sent adding the Late bloom enhancer from Current Culture! End of week 8 : lowered the TDS to 470ppm , she seems that it not eating so much nutrients anymore. She still drinking 3 gallons of water every single day.
