The week starts Monday, Jan-13 in flowering stage. The plant is growing thick and fast, with very short node intervals creating a thick canopy. Carried out substantial defoliation of almost all the big fan leaves and a few little stems that were not likely to make it above the canopy. Avoided defoliating the major cola branches. This encourages the plant not to waste resources on a node which is only going to produce “popcorn” buds. The plants reacted well to the defoliation and were looking good by the end of the light cycle for the day. The net is completely full and this will be the last week of applying any LST as part of the ScrOG setup. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy, with daily fertigation at lights on - watering almost 2.5L per day. Lowered the average RH in the space to 50%. ----prior 4 weeks updates ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Jan-06 in flowering stage. The net is filling up nicely with the ScrOG process being enjoyable - just tucking branches nicely under squares once stretched enough. The Indica dominant strain is really shining with incredible dense growth and thick branches that don't bend as easily as it's Sativa neighbour. Light is maintained at 30cm distance from canopy. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Dec-30 in vegetative stage - switching the light regime to flowering. Initiated flowering with an extended dark period prior to switching light regime - this practice is supposed to promote a faster initiation of flowering by the plant. Maintain lights off from Dec-31, 10:00 until Jan 1 - 18:45 allowing a 32hr darkness period prior to switching the light regime. Light regime is set for 12.5/11.5 on/off allowing me a better maintenance window for my living situation. Both plants are growing fast and strong, showing their genetic traits. Some shoots are going through the net already. Have started to tuck branches as they grow to fill up any gaps. Did minor defoliation on both plants near their stem base and centres. Some green algae on roots/coco medium on the surface of the pot. Have defoliated some more which hopefully helps with air circulation at the area. Will monitor over the week - may need to decrease watering frequency, although they seem to be keeping up drinking. Lowered the High Humidity setting of the extraction fan to 60% - which effectively keeps it running at least 75% of the time, and removed the humidifier. Will monitor and adjust as necessary lowering the setting to 50% in a few weeks whilst flowering. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The week starts Monday, Dec-23 in vegetative stage. Installed the ScrOG net - Set at 20cm from the base of the plants, being 55cm from ground. The plant is showing great growth, lots of branching and new growth sprouts. A few branches are beginning to come through the net and almost all main branches are now tied down horizontally after the two recent toppings. Applied more LST and will wait for the branches to reach the net and start tucking. The AC Infinity fan is currently only running intermittently with its current settings. This seems to impact the utilisation and effectiveness of the carbon filter in use. The desired outcome is for the fan to be running for longer periods whilst in Auto config. Lowered the High Level Humidity from 70% to 60%, and more importantly, lowered the Max Speed from 4 to 2 with the intent that a lower fan speed will result in longer periods where the extraction fan is operated to remain below threshold targets for the grow space. Plant growth continues to be strong at the end of the week. Big fan leaves near the top are beginning to look a little serrated and dark, similar to the start of this grow. This may be due to the extra CalMag being added which was the issue at the start of the grow. Will keep monitoring and half the CalMag dosage on next feed. Importantly, I have learnt nutrient mixing of the CalMag should be done prior to the Canna Coco A & B. To date I have done the opposite which may explain my earlier issues. Fertigating daily at the start of the light cycle. One more week of vegetative growth before switching to flowering although I may need to switch earlier due to the vigorous growth and considering the stretch yet to come. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My grow setup includes; - Secret Jardin DS120W tent (120cm x 60cm x 180cm) placed inside the bedroom. Passive intake of air is from a closed off section of the room where the central heating boiler sits - the intake is warm air (20 degC.) and fairly dry (40% RH) during the winter months. - Mars Hydro SP250 LED light - extraction fan - AC Infinity Cloudline T6 - ventilation fans - aquarium heater - small oil heater - small dehumidifier - 20L Airpots and 3.5L general pots for seedling stage - Canna Coco substrate and nutrients - pH and EC/TDS meters - Thermo/Hygro meter

The plant is big enough, so I've done some LST :) Also this is the last week that I can spray the mixture with neem oil because from the next, this girl will start flowering.

and yet another grow has ended....

Although these plants might look small for 7 weeks old, it's because of the way I've been training them, to grow horizontally & all the H.S.T I've performed to get a really strong, thick structure & also as I've had to manage the height as they will be in veg until the plants in flower are finished & I can transfer them & start flowering. Continue tying branches down as they grow & separate growth tips. Also defoliate leaving only top growth as this will be removed later anyway. Very hardy plants that have handled all the H.S.T & my accidental abuse with no worries. Very thick strong branching. Finished training & now letting them grow upwards to get a bit of size before they get put to flower.

This week i only gave them 2 feedings, one only water and one with Enzym+ because last week I gave them lots of nutrients. I did that because they asked for it and could take it but in the other hand it was really hot so alot of feeding got evaporated which can result in a salty/old nutes medium. So with that in mind i let the enzymen do their work(cleaning and re-using nutrients) while making sure that i lower the EC in my pots down again because right now the weather this week is like 20-23 degrees with alot of rain, because of that, the plants don't drink up/evaporate that fast as they do when its hotter. Meaning i can't give as much water as they used to, so the EC in the pots will stay higher. A high EC is not a smart thing to have, plants will get a higher change of shutdowns, can even get diffiencies because of that. And the last thing a grower wants to have is heavy pots for lots of days LOL. ps, I should consider making 2 different buckets of feeding because my criticalkushes are still not showing signs of preflowering. To be honnest i'm not completely happy about the critical kush strain because the breeder promised a 100% Indica strain, which in my opinion is not. It is just another hybrid and a really slow one. pss, I will lower my EC in the comming weeks because I want my buds to get bigger and in later stages I will raise my EC again to make them compact,smelly,tasty,frosty, With high EC, you get compact,smelly,frosty,tasty but small buds, with low ec you get big but fluffy ones and not that frosty. This doesn't count for Autoflowers since they need way less ec... I did this many times with inside grows, we will see how it goes outside with these two strains.

Coming soon

esta semana los cogollos ban engordando y se nota que los pelos han cambiado us tonalidad, un dia de estos revisare los tricomas al microscopio a ver que tal está en ese aspecto. es algo qe por fotos no se puede transmitir, pero los cogollos están realmente duros. Puede que se acerque la cosecha, segun el banco el tiempo de flora son 56-63 días y van 51, asi que basicamente depende de como vaya viendo los terpenos se cosechará antes o después

Flipped to 12/12 at the end of Week 7. The manganese issue seems to have been solved by lowering the pH levels. Ordinarily I'd strip most everything below the net this week, but a friend asked me to leave him some clippings until week 2-3 of flower. I cleaned it up a little underneath the net, continued to tuck new growth, and started to slack back on grow nutes, and slowly introduce flower nutrients. I was hoping to have a second Aglex 2000 COB LED to add to the tent for flower, but it may be another week or two before I can add it.

I had fun with this barneys gorilla zkittlez, although it seems like it was ready around 7 weeks, its as if the plant has been in the early stages of self seeding when I've harvested on day 54~ of flower.. Can't think any other reason why this would've happened Anyway overall the bud is 95% amazing, just a slight sadness at the miniscule seeds forming close to the stems in the centre of some buds that takes away from the taste a little

we are in the 10th week and in the 5th week of flowering. she has grown a lot more buds and her scent is overworldly and very intense. the trichomes are mostly milky and one or two are already amber. i think i will give her another week and then harvest. i don't want any couch puscher weed.

Has a sweet taste to it. Again , I didn’t log any larf in the weight. Very resistant strain.

Welcome to week 5! Things are progressing along as some plants have started to display sex. I've removed some of the males that have shown themselves so far as we aren't looking to breed this run. Going to let them veg for this week and then I will be flipping the lights to get the flowering cycle started. Huge shout outs go to @MarsHydroLED for allowing me to grow with their kick ass gear! Huge huge shout outs go to all my followers and to the people who stop into the diary alike! Keep on inspiring. -The Projexx Day#29 Ladies are growing along and recovering nicely from the topping , Watered 1.5L from the bottom. Day#30 Plants seem to be doing ok from the water increase. Things moving along nicely Day#31 Pictures N/A. Plants are growing along remove 2 males Day#32 Watered 1.5L from the bottom , Plants arent very happy. I think the issues is i'm not waiting long enough between waterings. I will have to practice the technique more for now I may go back to top watering. Day#33 Pictures. N/A.Top fed 3.5 L each at 550PPM I knew I wasnt giving them enough water. Things are about to change heavy duty now Day#34 Pictures. N/A Plants are ridiculously happy now. Im going to cut away all the dying leaves and flip the lights. Day#35 Pictures N/A Last day of veg for this project. Im excited to see what these plants do in flower! Recap: Things where ruff at the start of the week but by the end we were rocking and rolling again and ready for flower! Wont be long now till we see some real action!

🌿 **Moby Dick Auto Grow Week 9 Update: Harvest Time Approaches!** 🌱 Greetings, fellow growers! It's time for an exhilarating update on the progress of our Moby Dick Auto adventure as we hit Week 9 of the grow cycle. With excitement mounting and buds maturing, let's delve into the latest developments: 🌟 **Abundant Bud Growth**: At Week 9, our Moby Dick Auto marvels are truly showcasing their potential, with buds swelling and resin production reaching its peak. The once-tiny flowers have evolved into dense, resinous clusters, promising a generous harvest in the near future. Trichomes are abundant, signaling optimal cannabinoid potency and aromatic richness. 📏 **Final Phase of Flowering**: As we enter the final phase of the flowering period, our focus is on maximizing bud development while ensuring ideal ripening conditions. By meticulously managing environmental variables such as temperature, humidity, and airflow, we're creating the perfect environment for our plants to flourish and achieve their utmost potential. 🍃 **Leaf Aging and Nutrient Management**: As anticipated in the late flowering stage, some leaves may exhibit signs of aging as the plant redirects its energy towards bud formation. This natural progression indicates that the plant is nearing maturity. Meanwhile, our nutrient regimen remains carefully calibrated, providing essential elements to support vigorous flowering without risking imbalances or deficiencies. 🔍 **Monitoring Trichome Ripeness**: With harvest drawing near, we're closely monitoring trichome development to determine the optimal time for harvest. Using magnification tools like jeweler's loupes or digital microscopes, we're scrutinizing trichomes for signs of ripeness, aiming for a blend of cloudy and amber trichomes to achieve the desired balance of cannabinoids, as well as flavor and aroma complexity. 🌞 **Preparation for Harvest**: As we gear up for harvest day, our checklist includes gathering essential tools such as trimming shears, drying racks, and storage containers, as well as ensuring a hygienic and organized workspace to preserve the integrity of our precious buds. We'll employ proper post-harvest techniques and curing methods to safeguard terpene profiles and enhance overall quality. In summary, Week 9 signifies a pivotal juncture in our Moby Dick Auto grow expedition, where patience and precision converge in anticipation of the impending harvest of our prized buds. Stay tuned for the forthcoming update as we rejoice in the culmination of months of dedicated cultivation, yielding a bounty of premium-grade cannabis ready for enjoyment and sharing. Happy growing! 🌿✨

Итог : 6 автоцветов Палатка 1.2 х 1.2 м Свет 600 Ват 775г общий урожай 1.3грамм на ват Шишки мокрые - уже очень плотные, прям очень, как камень. Думаю сухой вес порадует))

420 Fastbuds Cherry Cola Auto 🍒 These two finished up beautifully I'd have to say. After getting the chop 1 came out to 230g and the other 205g wet weight. After a 6 days on the dry rack they're ready for the jar to start the curing process. They both came out very similar from weight, height, smell, and flower density. Some awesome genetics for sure 420Fastbuds. The dry weight came out to 97g after cutting out the remaining stems off. Will do an update on the smoke report after a week of curing. Was highly surprised in this strain because one fought me the whole grow but in the end even though didn't look the prettiest still had every quality of the other one that looked amazing. All in all Happy Growing

📅 Week 9 (Days 56–62) 🌸 Mid-Flower | Bud Development | Nutrient Monitoring This week saw a clear ramp-up in flower density. The buds have begun to take on noticeable weight, with trichome coverage increasing steadily — not just on the sugar leaves, but now crawling onto small calyx fans. There’s a tangible stickiness to the upper canopy, and the diesel/cardamom/citrus terp profile has deepened. Aroma is more persistent after lights-on, lingering even after ventilation. Leaf health has required a watchful eye. The lower fans have continued to yellow and were removed incrementally. Nothing alarming yet - mostly older leaves giving up their stores. But toward the end of the week, I spotted some yellowing beginning to creep into mid-canopy areas. No burn, no twist - just fading. I’ve continued feeding - full strength Advanced Nutrients this week, including one adjusted dose focusing only on Grow (3.5 mL in 2L) to boost nitrogen in response to the yellowing. Watered with 2L at pH 6.4. No runoff, but weight and hydration have been monitored closely. Still a slight risk of earlier shallow root development limiting uptake, but the plant is holding its posture. One environmental slip-up: I noticed the leaf edges starting to taco slightly mid-week. Tracked it down to the humidifier being off. Once re-enabled, RH returned to 50–55%, and the issue self-corrected. No further signs of VPD stress. Trichomes: Still mostly clear with very few cloudy. No amber in sight. Maturity is progressing slowly - right on pace for a post-vacation harvest. Action points: – Continue feeding through Week 10 – Monitor yellowing mid-canopy - may respond with another Grow-only supplement if it progresses – Keep RH stable with the new humidifier – Macro checks every few days to watch for trichome shift 🗓️ Overall: A stable week with increasing density and trichome output. Aroma building. No rush yet — plant is following a long, even curve into maturity. Feeding schedule holds, with my daughter planned to feed once or twice while I’m away, then transition to water only.
