Busted out a new soil analyzer, used it on another plants pot that has been having issues, 7PH. Last weeks transplant and used of PHd 7 water worked and cleared my calcium/magnesium lockout but now causing autoflowers and bagseed to grow a bit more slowly. As far as this SD plant, it's still seeing 6.0-.6.15 steady and that's why this plant is bangin' through early vegetation quickly. I've also caught this problem early with this plant and have gone way down on ferts and water amounts. Each afternoon when this plants fan leaves start to look a bit drab, one full cup of straight RO with a quarter tsp. Maxigrow, let that dissolve, fizzle the water and turn pp yellow, 1.5mL Sweet Raw and 2mL Hydrogurad, stir and add by feeder syringe. I'm pretty sure soil is fine too as bot lh my soil readers show 6 and 7 respectively on all pots(should be, same soil, same nutes) but you can literally see plants that I've overfed, this SD plantbis not one of them so soil is well buffered. I'm also scrambling to raise the lights to get all 5 plants good top coverage but the more I raise the lights, the more I see nodes and lateral braching stretch. Definitely not an auto or Indica Dominant. Bought some #2 2.6Gal pots today, will sterilize and coat with copper sulfate and mix up some Ocean Forest with a bit of silica sand, tiny bit of Oak wood ash and also new, Dr. Earths Blood Meal with whats left of my Tree and Nut dry amendments from same company. Have had alot of good results with these mix in or too dress fertilizers, buds are much more dank than when using chemical ferts! I will most likely cut out the maxigro, start using Brier Rabbit Blackstrap Molasses, keep using Floralicious Plus and the Botanicaire line and back with the Alaska Fish Fertilizer, all just in much lighter amounts!! Blood Meal will make this plant HUGE and FAT...just remember...be super skimpy on the amounts used!

Welcome everyone Here we are with the final conclusions about this brand new CHUPACABRA 🍭🐐🌱 Breeding by MICROGENETICA Seed bank 🏆 We have passed togheter the entire summer and to be honest this is the girst time I have grow indoor during this hot months. Usually I do some outdoor, but you know, the virus was can't give me any chance to do it.. Anyway About the hot climate 🌡️🌡️ She has was very resistent , but a little slowly in grow.. Honestly in the beginning my idea was to do a "normal" lst , but in the end she looks like some desert treehs 😅🌳 In some point , i think because i have use to much silicium , the stem was bee to hard for beeing training in the way i was want.. And so I have decided to create something "artistic" 🎨 Five long months 21 colas 🚀 Flowers has a very sweet with some cheese notes 🧀 Very oleous 🔥 In the end I have collected about 70g , dry and cure Very dense nuggets Good amount of trichomes 👌 Honestly I was can do a better job , especially during bloom 🙌 I have growed her in a Living soil , so basically only water with some molasses and sometimes aloe vera and silicium.. But I was have some deficency in P. And so I have done just a tea with some guano and kelp I have not do something more because im in learning with this type of growing. Now I know that for the next time I will have to change something by adding elements in different quantities during the preparation of the soil But in any case , the aroma and taste are intense and rich 🤩 Very enjoyable to smoke , just weed and rolling papers But with a good vaporaizer it will be much better 💯 I also think it would be a very good strain for exctraction To try 😎 And that's all I have put every info possible during any week from the beginnig to the ends , if you want to know more about this grow cycle.. And also photos 😉 Unfortunally I was cant be able to update the last week of flowering because I was having some account problems But here we are In the end im happy about this strain and I definetly can raccomended it to everybody Definitely good for making clones So.. Thanks to Microgenetica seedbank for the seeds 🙏🙏 And thank you so much Grow Diaries , like as always 🤟🤙🙏 See you Ciao ✌️ 🇮🇹

Ganja Farmer AK 2.0 XL Day 47 from sprout Light viparspectra XS 2000 dialed in at 75% intensity watering every other day or every two days The bud structure is growing very differently with this strain. Flowering came a bit later but I did give LST early on which could have delayed flowering. See you all next week! happy growing!

Girls have exploded into flower! They had a big stretch and have started stacking very nicely. Flower came so fast, they are showing a slight phosphorus need, and perhaps a bit more cal/Mag to help with uptake and such. I’ve been introducing the Clyde nutrients slowly to try and avoid burn, but I clearly need a bit more. I am liking the results overall though. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️🌱😎💨

week 3 is a tough rn not gonna lie shes yellowing extremely fast and shes begging me for potassium. i was just giving her 2 tsps to 3 gallons of water. as of today (jan 8 2022) i gave her a feed of 1 and 1/4 bloom and 1/4 veg nutes to try to fight the yellowing. i honestly dont know if that was the right thing to do most threads i read just said to add some nitrogen but idk if dyna gros bloom and grow are meant to be mixed. especially this late in flower. either way its too late i already gave it to her i guess now all i can do is wait and see what happens. you can see how fast the yellowing is happening too.

Having removed the other two guests, this week they had more space in the growbox, so I took advantage of this and let the buds mature for another week.

Giorno 1 molto bene le ragazze sono in ottima forma e questa sarà l'ultima settimana di veg. Lei è veramente molto in forma😁 quindi ho deciso di fare su di lei un esperimento, cioè pizzicare il ramo e piegarlo nella posizione che voglio. È la prima volta che pratico questo quindi non so nemmeno se lo fatto nel modo giusto, ora vedremo se basterà e come reagisce. Ps:non ho tolto nessuna delle splendide prendisole!! Le ho soltanto spostate fuori dai coglioni Giorno 2 defogliazione e Lollipopping Giorno 3 stamattina la pianta si era già completamente ripresa🤬 quindi ho pensato di piegarla ulteriormente e per sbaglio ho finito per spezzare il ramo😤. Mi serviva di lezione dato che non avevo mai fatto questa pratica prima quindi va bene così. Ora lo fasciata a un pezzo di legno e speriamo che entro martedì stia bene per andare in fiore🙃. Giorno 5 annaffiata con 2L Giorno 6 da oggi 12/12

This was a fun project that was a few years in the making and a year later to see if they would last a season for this upload to happen. Before any of this I would bike aorund town grabbing up all the old Ikea solid pine bed slats that I could find and storing them in the basement. I have a lot of wood down there, any size worked as long as I have enough of them. The hot days to find them were the first and last of the months because that's when people where moving in/out. I also kept an eye on the free section on local online classifieds as well. The entire purpose of this was to recycle as much off the streets as I could before buying anything to finalize the project. In the end I only bought sealer, screws and some takeaway/beers. All the wood was 100% free and salvaged off the streets of Toronto saving it from the dumpster bin. After collecting all the slats for about 2 years I was playing aorund with them on how I wanted to make this work. I had previously done a little project like this before but I messed it up and the boxes where crap. did not last longer then 2 seasons, they where thin and shallow as well could not grow much of anything in them. I Was talking to my friend who is renovating their house and we brainstormed some ideas on the boxes, I found some designs I liked online and said lets make something like this out of what I have here. We tossed out a few of the design features when looking at them as it would have been wasted wood and extra work not needed. If I had more wood them maybe it could have been an option but simple was the name of the game. They taught me what I needed to know like how the miter saw and sander worked, plus all the other tools I was using. They did help out with a table saw and creating the triangle support joints in the corners, They used some pine left overs they had while making a staircase indoors. I did not feel up to the task of using a table saw given all the relatives I know who have lost a finger to them. In the end we decided the design would be three boards high and take an alternating pattern on corners. layer one short, layer 2 long, layer 3 short. Went with a galvanized and painted deck screw so it can take the weathering. Ran into some problems like making everything level as some of the boards were warped and other ones had undesired aspects like knots and tacky sticker goo I could not remove. So I used them for the base that will not been seen so much. Clamped everything down and called it a day. Once it was all done and over with, I then brought them back home from my buddies work garage and started to seal them. I went with a boiled linseed oil as its a food safe option should the wood degrade into the soil I will plant in them. I will need to reapply it to the boxes year after year but the main coat is the most important one and I put it on 3 layers with a good dry in between coats. the inside of the boxes that where coated did not degrade at all as the sun did not hit them so it will not need a new coat just the outside. Overall the end result was very impressive for myself, I've never taken a woodworking class ever and It was a near perfect outcome for me. Heavy Duty Planter Boxes for all my gardening needs. I made a last min decision to add in a plastic liner to preserve the wood even longer and stapled that into the frame. it has held up quite well and may need replacing end of 2nd or 3rd year out in the sun. Used a thick moisture wrap plastic with UV protectors in its formula. Lets see what I can grow in them this year! m0use's haus of projects - garden box edition
