Hallo to You all my familly and usual visitors. Thank you for stopping by and all the likes and comments....You make my day! According to the trichomes the Blue cheese is already overdue for harvest but i wanted her to grow as big as i could ;) You can see the trichomes photos i know its a bad quality but im actually happy i maneged to take them pictures It was a pain in the arse to make them photos as bad as they are xD On Black Friday i ordered a better quality microscope with options of taking photos so in future harvests it will improve. I started the flush just yesterday and plan to dark her on the 5th of december (or so) As you can clearly see thanks to my great skill and experience in growing i managed to match the plants leaves with the colours of the actual golden grater ;P What a great achievement and view to beholde :D It was a joy to work with Mars Hydro and their equipment in this grow. A big thanks to the Mars Hydro team for this opportunity, you truly provide first class grow kits and lamps. That's it for this week folks, have a wonderful week and please come beck visit in a week for the chopping of this work of gardening art :)

@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices.  Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21. Started to germinate the seed. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-23. Seed germinated and put in small pot in the humidity dome. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-27. Slow and steady she grows. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-28. Transplanted in 15 liter autopot. Check the roots on this girl ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. New movie of the girl. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-29. Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics and a movie. Everything is looking great right now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-31. 3 new pics. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-01. New pics and a video from the grow room today. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-02. New pic. -------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-03. New video from this morning. ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Wir befinden uns im Endspurt Sehr anscheinend Ernten wir den Haupttrieb (kleinere Cola) ab Mitte Stamm zuerst. Wir sind froh, dass sie bis hierhin sowieso noch mitgemacht hat, aber so gesund wir der restliche Teil der Pflanze geht es dem teil definitiv nicht. Wir sind sehr Glücklich, so eine tolle Strain beim wachsen und Blühen zuzusehen. Es ist wiegesagt unsere erste, von solch welchen Ausmaßen und vor allem unter allen bestrittenen Situationen und Herausforderungen. Es macht uns mega viel spaß und insgesamt sind wir zufrieden. Allen Growmies eine angenehme Woche! ;-)

Everything goes better than I expected. Very early in flower and already the plant has some pretty big flowers and the smell is stronger. I increased the ppm to 1100-1200. I struggle to keep the plant tied because it is still stretching to the lights

This week was a very cold week. 13 to 18 degrees during the day and at night like 10 to 13 degrees. Therefore the buds didn't swell properly. Luckly one Critical Kush is still swelling but the other one seems to have slowed down. It's oke, i knew this would happen and the kushes might not finish in time. Might harvest my Shamans at the end of the month. The kushes I will keep until half/end oktober. Since this is only a outside fungrow, I'm not making any effort to heat up the climate by putting heaters arround the plants. Critical Kushes are in their 3th week of flowering. Somehow GD minimalize the videos after putting 10pictures on the diary, Just click on the next picture and click on the right arrow to go to the videos. Have fun looking arround :)

RAW GROW is a tested blend of all 12 RAW Soluble plant nutrients, essential elements and supplements. This blend has been proven to be an optimal all-in-one base “Grow” horticultural fertilizer. RAW GROW is used through out the entire vegetative stage. Derived from: Plant protein hydrolysate, mono potassium phosphate, potassium sulfate, cane molasses, sodium borate, copper sulfate, iron DTPA, magnesium sulfate, manganese sulfate, zinc sulfate and azomite. Also contains non-plant food ingredients: Humic acids derived from leonardite and peat, kelp (ascophyllum nodosum), silicon dioxide derived from diatomite and yucca extract. When you overlap a copper wire to attract ions, it is called ion exchange. Copper wire is often used as a material for ion exchange because it has a high affinity for positively charged ions, such as copper, zinc, and nickel. When copper wire is overlapped or wound into a coil, it creates a surface area that attracts ions and allows them to bind to the wire or gather within the space. This process is used in various applications, such as electroplating, water treatment, chemical separation processes and cultivation. Electrolysis is a chemical process that involves passing an electric current through a liquid or solution containing ions. This process causes the ions to migrate towards the electrodes, where they undergo a chemical reaction. In the context of plant growth, electrolysis is used to increase the availability of your nutrient-rich solution that can be used to feed plants. Electrolysis and nutrient rich reservoirs work well together since your cannabis nutrients are salt based. The process involves passing an electric current through a solution of water and plant nutrients, which causes the water molecules to break down into their constituent parts, hydrogen, and oxygen. The hydrogen ions (H+) then combine with the nutrients in the solution to form a nutrient-rich substance that can be absorbed by the plant roots easier. This will only work in a nutrient rich solution as it requires the salt-based nutrients to engage. This process, known as hydrolysis, provides the plant with a continuous supply of nutrients and oxygen, which can help to increase plant growth and improve yields. By providing the plant with a more efficient method of absorbing nutrients, electrolysis can help to increase the uptake of essential elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Additionally, electrolysis can help to maintain the pH balance of the growing medium, which is essential for optimal plant growth. One of the key advantages of using electrolysis to increase plant growth is that it allows for greater control over the growing system. This is exactly why this is generally a technique reserved for advanced hydroponics growers. By adjusting the voltage and current levels, cultivators can custom control the nutrient concentration and pH level of the solution, ensuring that the plant receives the optimal amount of nutrients sitting perfectly on potential hydrogen spectrum. Carotenoids absorb light in the blue-green range of the visible spectrum, complementing chlorophyll's absorption in the red range. Carotenoids protect photosynthetic machinery from excess light. They deactivate singlet oxygen, which is a harmful oxidant formed during photosynthesis. Carotenoids quench triplet chlorophyll, which can be harmful to photosynthesis. Carotenoids scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can damage cell membranes and proteins. Carotenoid derivatives signal plant development and responses to environmental cues. Carotenoids provide precursors for the biosynthesis of phytohormones like abscisic acid (ABA) and strigolactones (SLs). Carotenoids are pigments that give fruits and vegetables their orange, red, and yellow colors. They also act as free radical scavengers to protect plants during photosynthesis. Beta-carotene is the most common provitamin A carotenoid. It's found in orange and yellow fruits and vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, and mangos. Other carotenoids include lycopene, lutein, and zeaxanthin. These carotenoids have antioxidant and photoprotective properties. In plants, Vitamin A is found as carotenoids, which are pigments that give plants their color. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin. Vitamin B plays a vital role in plant growth and development. It acts as a coenzyme in many metabolic reactions, which are the basis for plant growth and maintenance. Vitamin B helps plants metabolize nutrients, which are essential for growth and development. Vitamin B helps plants respond to biotic and abiotic stress. Vitamin B can help plants grow new roots, which can reduce transplant shock. Vitamin B can help plants grow shoots, especially slow-growing plants. Vitamin B1 Also known as thiamine diphosphate, vitamin B1 is a key component of metabolic pathways like glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Vitamin B3 Also known as nicotinamide or niacin, vitamin B3 is a biostimulant that can improve plant growth and yield. Vitamin B6 Vitamin B6 acts as an antioxidant and cofactor, and is involved in plant stress responses. Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is a vital nutrient for plants that helps with growth and protects them from excess light. Vitamin C acts as a redox buffer, which is important for regulating photosynthesis. Vitamin C helps enzymes that regulate photosynthesis, hormone production, and regenerating antioxidants. Vitamin C is a coenzyme in the xanthophyll cycle, which converts excess energy into heat. This process helps plants protect themselves from too much light. seedlings to young plants can feed on 200-400 PPM, Teenage plants that have a maturing root zone can feed on 350-550 PPM and adults will feed 600-1000 PPM. The more you feed plants and watch them grow you'll get a feel for how much to give them. Less is more when trying to grasp this. High level of CEC in organic soil so I'm watering 5-gallon

Der Grow neigt sich dem Ende, die Pflanze zeigt eine schöne Herbstfärbung und es sind erste bernsteinfarbene Trichome zu sehen. Ich gehe davon aus, dass ich in den nächsten Tage ernte werde. Ich gieße seit ca. 1 Woche nur pH angepasstes Wasser. Hier und da habe ich bei den obersten Headbuds Foxtails, weil der PPFD-Wert dort zu hoch war, aber das sind nur Schönheitsmängel. Der Besatz an Trichomen und die Kompaktheit der Blüten sind sehr gut. Aber am besten gefällt mir der Geruch - extrem süß blaubeerig, dieser durchströmt beim Öffnen des Zeltes mein ganzes Zimmer.

growing chem pie was amazing from start to finish, he made beautiful buds covered in resin. Every day it was wonderful to go and see how it blooms. during cultivation I came across two completely different phenotypes. One had rather more open but very firm buds, but the other was more like a crossbow and also firm buds. During drying, a little mold appeared on one of the bud, but otherwise everything is fine. after a month of curing, the taste of the smoke was very pronounced.

Im Vergleich zur letzten Woche ist eine klare Entwicklung zu erkennen. Die Pflanzen stehen insgesamt vitaler da, mit deutlich stärker ausgeprägten Blütenständen. Viele Budsites haben sichtbar an Volumen zugelegt, die Kelche wirken dichter und die Harzbildung hat spürbar zugenommen. Besonders bei einigen Exemplaren stechen jetzt kompaktere Colas heraus, während andere weiterhin etwas luftiger wachsen – ein typischer Unterschied zwischen den verschiedenen Genetiken. Die Farbpalette hat sich erweitert: Neben sattem Grün zeigen mehrere Pflanzen inzwischen ausgeprägte violette und rötliche Töne, vor allem an den oberen Blättern und rund um die Blüten. Bei einzelnen Pflanzen setzt zudem die natürliche Herbstfärbung ein, was sich durch gelbliche Blattpartien an älteren Blättern bemerkbar macht. Das wirkt insgesamt harmonisch und passt gut zum fortgeschrittenen Blütestadium. In der Struktur ist ebenfalls Fortschritt zu sehen. Die Blüten haben sich weiter gestapelt, Internodien erscheinen „gefüllter“ und die Pflanzen wirken insgesamt reifer. Die Höhenunterschiede zwischen den Strains sind klarer geworden: Einige wachsen weiter in die Höhe, andere konzentrieren ihre Energie nun fast vollständig auf die Verdickung der Buds. Zusammengefasst zeigt diese Woche eine deutliche Reifephase. Mehr Masse, mehr Harz, stärkere Farben und klar erkennbare Unterschiede zwischen den Strains – ein solider Schritt nach vorne im Gesamtbild. Fortsetzung folgt...💚✌️☺️

The smell on this one is next-level for real! I got 2–3 different phenos, but they all carry that same loud scent I’d describe it as sweet and fruity I honestly can’t wait to smoke it, and judging by the insane layer of trichomes she’s rocking, I already know she’s gonna hit hard.😝😝
