Ginger Nut Cookies & Aussie Music Videos Week 16 Harvest 17 th April 2020 This Entire feminised seed making and growing project was a very good learning experience for me. Right from the very start, when I successfully got a Cutting ,taken from a Barneys Farm Red diesel female plant to produce feminised pollen after treating it with a silver thiosulfate solution. I then used it to pollinate a Fastbuds Girl scout cookies auto plant and let it grow to maturity. This only produced 3 viable seeds one of which is the subject of this Diary. I made up the name "Ginger nut cookies" after a variety of cookies we have here in Australia that are made with ginger. They are the same colour as the distinct red hairs on the red diesel buds. And would you believe those same vivid red hairs were passed on to this plant so I wasn't too far off the mark with the strain name. Her flavour however is nothing like red diesel or girl scout cookies and infact as taken on a smell and aroma all of it's own. She has a lovely tropical fruit like taste and the smell is a bit like fruit yoghurt. It has an unreal after taste on the exhale and the lingering second hand smoke smells very sweet and enticing. She has a pretty well balanced high too not as potent as the GSC nor as energenic as the red diesel but just a pleasant mix of the two. It was a very easy to grow and undemanding plant that didn't seem to require a lot of extra feeding other than the 100% organic nutrients that were within the soil and a few things like compost teas etc. The other element of this diary was of course the weekly Aussie music videos That I provided the links for and put up a little video clip preview of each Artists song. Week 1 Dance Monkey Week 2 Gotye Week 3 AC/DC Week 4 INXS Week 5 Dire straits Week 6 Yothu yindi and Midnight oil Week 7 Divinyls Week 8 Was Request week where I asked growers to pick and because only 3 growers put in a request I decided to choose all three which were Kylie Minogue , Flume & Airbourne Week 9 Paul Kelly Week 10 Daddy Cool Week 11 Cold chisel Week 12 Jimmy Barnes Week 13 The Angels Week 14 Crowded House Hoodoo gurus Mental as Anything Week 15 Empire of the sun Big Pig , Silverchair , Peking duk Grinspoon , Hilltop hoods and the White stripes And Finally for the last lot of music videos I have chosen another multi list bonanza of Aussie Music with the artist/s name and Youtube link below. So in no particular order here are my last choices for this Diary its been a fun grow with a steep learning curve.

SPEEDY BOOM 💥 AUTO/ KANNABIA WEEK #10 Overall Week #4 Flower This week no issues she's not the biggest plant but she's growing in extremely hot conditions and she's doing fine. This lady is ready to grow she's easy to grow she doesn't need much besides light and water. Stay Growing!! Kannabia.com SPEEDY BOOM 💥 AUTO

Welcome to week 10 of my grow diary. Growth has now finally stopped. The buds are getting thicker and ripening day by day. As it gets quite damp at night, the plant is spending the night in the garage. Otherwise, dew collects in the buds and it takes too long for them to dry again, which is a high risk for mold. Now that we're nearing the end, I don't want to take any risks. You can tell that the plant is begging for nutrients even though it is getting enough fertilizer. The leaves are starting to turn slightly yellow. Autumn is beginning and the harvest is not far off. The smell is now extremely dominant and the whole garden smells when you go outside. See you next week!

De fanned all plants to help light penetration for onset of flowers. I’ve either got a fungus knats or root aphid issue. I’m usually on a daily watering system but have had to manually feed plants due to some under root development, which is probably due to bugs. Noticed some yellowing but plants seem to be doing fine.

Week 6 Veg. The Wock smell is getting stronger by the day. Strong candy terps with gas, Straight GAS that stings the nose bit makes you want to take an even bigger huff. I can already tell she’s going to be stanky once flower starts. One thing to note about Wockesha is that she is a super compact plant with thick foliage once topped. I’ve started to introduce the bloom nutrients at 1tbsp/g. since I’ll be flowering in the next 3 to 4 weeks, I’m adding early to ensure that all nutrients in my living soil will be broken down and readily available to all plants as soon as bloom starts.

This week I am going through and pulling the large fan leaves off , she is a slow flowering plant so I'm just doing my best to be patient with her !!! A true gem with an unique structure !!! I think this girl is gonna be a 10 week flower , she is just starting to get smaller flower spots . Still a beast !! Added a CO2 bag directly above the canopy , added a 150 watt "blurple" light above GG#4 S1( number 2) More picture notrs and videos to follow !!

2/8 They're just exploding now full flowering. They smell amazing. Just a quick few I took while just tucking them in for the night.... Will get some more pics tomorrow as it water and molasses day. Still no nutrients or additives. 100% organic 3/8 little video of the ladies The smell coming off them now is really sweet smelling and rather strong. 11/8 End of week 6 and they are filling out nicely now and smelling like candy.

Filling out the trellis net. Looks like another 2-3 weeks until I flip the ladies. Using SST’s, LABS and natural inputs for this grow. I have made some mistakes in the past using Organics, but have figured out HOW to use them for an entire grow. The vegetative state, I have never had a problem with. The transition into the first 3 weeks is when I have had the most issues. After a little research and testing, I finally have a basic blue print of how to feed plants in flower for 10-12 weeks now or shorter. Mark Bowell from Perfect Gardens on YouTube and Mr Canucks Grow from Canada are my largest information inputs. Final Thank you to Mr McGooz for keeping me in the know. 10-11: yes, some of the stalks are turning purple. This is not due to phosphorus, magnesium, or any deficiency. It is due to the light being too intense for the plants. I am at the max distance and running the light at 30% ( it’s a 600 watt 🤣🤣). Soooo yeah, that purple is going to stay for a bit. Purple with other leaf discoloration or senescence IS a problem, purple stems with NO leaf issues isn’t serious issue. Cant it be fixed? We are going to find out….Photosynthesis Plus will be on hand in the next 5-6 days. This permits the plant to USE more of the photons ( yes, I have carbon in my media). This should minimize the purple and allow me to UP THE WATTS 🗣️🗣️ 10-14: spoke to my “guide” and we made the decision to go ahead and flower these ladies. We saw how much stretch there is to be had and realized we are currently filling the trellis by 75%. We are estimating the entire 4x4 area to be completely filled. I defoliated and pruned the smaller sites off the lower areas of the plant. Not quite lollipopping, just selectivity choosing sites to keep and bones that will get in the way. For transition I am using a ratio of 1:1:1 on NPK’s to ease the flip. The ppm’s will be between 750-800. Once we reach early flower, we switch the NPK’s to 1:3:2 ( flower girl by Dr Earth OR Fish bone meal and langbenite). I switch each feeding between the two for 5-6 weeks. At week 7 we switch to 0:3:3 ( seabird guano and Langbeinite) at 500 ppm’s. Week 8 the same feed. Week 9 kelpseaweed/water Only ( these are 10 week cultivars). Thank you for taking the time to read. 10-16 😍😍😍 Plants are starting to show deficiencies!!! Yes, normally one freaks out 😂😂😂 The slight deficiency is a sign that I can go ahead and start: The Flowering Cycle. When using Organics, you have to use your eyes because nothing is specific. Meaning: you have to see when the amendments are running out to A: Top Dress B. Make compost teas. We are going the compost tea route for flower. I made a video showing exactly what I use. The ratio is 5-5-5 ( yes earlier we were going to use 2-2-2, but we found out there is no calcium or magnesium in the all purpose mix by Dr Earth…another reason to learn to read your plants).

always perfect for autos

This week I started bloom feed along with dutchpro explode at 50%. I defoliated alot of undergrowth as it would only struggle to grow. I removed half of what I wanted to remove due to not wanting to stress them too much.

Week 0 : Sixshooter Hawkbo says Six Shooter is one of the top Fast Buds Strains, so i'm like "yeah man might as well run me some of these, i do like my weed top of the shelf!" so here it is with the six shooter , bought these direct during one of Fast bud's promotions, 3+2 x2 for the price of one, so yeah that' s a good deal ! germinating 5 let's see how many i end up keeping, depends on the rest of the seeds too ! overnight in a glass of water with a few drops of my kelp extract , protect it from the light , the next day looks like some already cracked, putting it in the RQS propagator, dont use your fingers to manipulated activated seeds , cover with some dirt, cover the propagator with a blanket to protect it from light and keep the temperature up. Let's see ! within a day three had cracked the surface, one was all squiggly from being put upside down but within a day it has straightened out, the two last ones took 3 more days to crack the surface, i'm saving them and keeping them closeby in case i need to replace any of the planted seeds. Six shooter have been great genetrics so far, i transplanted three of them on day 4. see you next week for more updates !

pistols are beginning to turn amber. thrichome development increases each day. buds are starting to get bulky.

Day 28 She looks good but not perfect, wait for the next weeks ,also she is in preflower

Solid start for this week also, nothing to complain about the growth. I'm doing just some LST to increase branches strenght to support bigger buds. Day 38, tied down some branches to create an even canopy and strenghten stems

Started adding the nutes at 1ml/l. Just using Advanced Nutrients Sensi Coco A+B for veg, Will add in some molasses after any HST or defoliation (stress). Looking good so far.

Hello everyone week 4 of flower has passed for this Cherry Cola auto & she’s ready 🍒 For the feeding schedule i stopped feeding Power Roots and Pure Zym and started feeding Green Sensation 0,5/l Mars hydro FC-E6500 75% have a great day and wish you all happy growing 😎👨‍🌾🏻

Canopy is felling and the TSW2000 so far is not disappointing, have it higher at 85% power with gives me a 650ppfd in the center and 450 on the edges, with for this time is quite perfect. The reason i have the light higher than recommended by MARSHYDRO is because I’m looking for more heat inside my grow tent, so to compensate increase % on the power 😇💚 I’ll keep training them day by day, little by little until I’m happy with the canopy 😁 Week 2 day 6 And they are loving the MARSHYDRO, they are running for the light and felling up the canopy pretty fast 🙏 off course Aptus Nutrients are a big, but a big must on this love recipe 😇🙏🙌💚💚💚 One more week here we go 💚🌱💚🌱💚🌱 And with and enormous honneur and pleasure that i start collaborating with MARSHYDRO, they wore kind enough and send me a 4x4 grow tent and a TSW2000 for me to do tests and reviews, i got to admit the quality on the materials, the easy assembling, the user manual, even the art detail that came with a bunch of cool stickers, are plus things that can not go unnoticed 🙏💚 Thanks Marshydro for so many details 🙌😉 i will try and post them all in here, but you can follow me on my instagram account https://instagram.com/dogdoctorofficial for every day updates , videos giveaways etc, or in my youtube channel- https://youtube.com/channel/UCR7ta4DKLFMg2xxTMr2cpIg keep tuned 💚💚💚 Thank you MARSHYDRO for having faith in my love for growing , lets make magic together 🙏🙏🙏 Genetics - Cookies Fam genetics - 3x SunsetSherbet Grow tent - MARSHYDRO 4x4 Ligth - MARSHYDRO TSW 2000 @ 85% Filter - vanguard hydroponics Falcon Filters Extraction - 2 x vanguard hydroponics 280m3h Extraction control - SMSCOM Smart MK2 All i grow is medicine for myself, for me and for my best friend with is me 😆 nothing to sell, so don’t even ask 😅💚💚💚 All info and full product details can be find in can find @ https://www.mars-hydro.com/grow-tent https://www.mars-hydro.com/led-grow-light/mars-ts-series-led-grow-light/mars-tsw-2000-led-full-spectrum-hydroponic-led-grow-light https://marshydro.eu/ DISCOUNT CODE - DOGDOCTOR 💚💚💚🙏🙏🙏💚💚💚 https://marshydroau.com/ More info and updates @ https://growdiaries.com/grower/dogdoctor https://instagram.com/dogdoctorofficial https://youtube.com/channel/UCR7ta4DKLFMg2xxTMr2cpIg 💚💚💚Growers love to you all 💚💚💚
