She is coming to the end now. Big fat juicy buds and a crazy sweet smell. I alreadt know this will be a good one. I will chop her this week and then update with a harvest and smoke report in a few weeks.

Been away for 2 weeks working away. The first test for the autopots. Well what can I say. This grow is insane . I have 8 plants all are over 160cm. The 3 sweet seeds plants are over 240cm... It's insane. Supercropped the biggest but just chunking up. I'm out of height for lights now so I'm kinda stuffed in a good way. This is not the worse issue to have. I can't get individual pics of plants as there is no room in this jungle. The cheat code is Biotabs and Autopots. Just leave them alone and prepare to be amazed These have only ever had untreated tap water. And I'm talking Lolndon tap water so not the best. But the biotabs just seem to make it all good No sign of salt build up and no sign of any deficiency. I will give I feed of biopk in the coming week as a top feed but that will be that until harvest. Unless something happens if course..🤪

_____ Week 8 | Day 57 - 63 ______ Feeding: I give her 25% less fertilizer than indicated by Advanced... Day 57 🌞💫 💫 - install the other 2 Spider-farmer light bars | 4 / 160 Watt = 40 Watt each bar Day 59 🌞💧 💧- each Plant 3 Liter, with small drain Day 62 🌞⛅ ⛅ - I have changed the light for 1 week now and so far there are only small signs of flowering to be seen... Since then, they have grown about 5-10 cm ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Light - 12/12 h - 560 Watt - 2x 200 Watt Toplight - 4 x 40 Watt Lightbars PPFD - 900 - 1000 µmol Temp. avg. - 22,1° Hum. avg. - 65 % RLH

Good week all branches tied and bottoms caught up quote small and bushy with quite a few node sites. Try update some better photos soon. Just switched to 12/12 today, been running 600hps was goin to add another but heats alittle much so ive added two 1000w led photos to follow. Hoping to fill out room more withjn a few weeks of stretch to 12/12.

I think that in around 1 week this girl is ready, nice plant to grow, i like the bud structure, the calyxes vs leave proportion is great, a very nice and sweet smell and an easy to grow plant! 😋 🍰🍰🍰

Day 50: Everything is looking happy after the little trimming. Getting ready to head out of town in a few days. Ordered a small automatic waterer from Amazon to assist while I'm gone. Watering/feeding day. Each plant got 1 gallon of water with the following things: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 30mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 (a little more than normal to give them a boost) 5mL per gallon GrowMore Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses Scratched into the surface of each pot is a 1/2 cup of Happy Frog Fruit & Flower Day 52: Leaving town early on Day 53 for 5 days. To prepare for the time I'll be gone I got an automatic watering system from amazon. Since I only use a total of 4 gallons during watering and only need one watering done while I'm gone, a single bucket will do the trick. I set up the system, installed two watering stems per pot, and made a looped system. In the bucket of water, I added nothing but the water. I don't want to have to worry about stirring it or anything like that. I set the system up to water when lights come on during the 3rd day I'm gone, Day 55. After I had the system set up I watered/fed the plants. Each plant got 1 gallon with the following: 5mL per gallon Alaska 5-1-1 15mL per gallon Alaska 0-10-10 5mL per gallon Grow More Seaweed Extract 15mL Blackstrap Molasses Plant 2 also got 1.25mL of AGT-50 Plant 3 also got 15mL of Liquid Culture Microbes Plant 4 also got both the AGT-50 and LCM at the same amounts above. Hope the watering system works.

She's staying shorter, that's her genetics -good old NL. Very excited for the strain, the flower that I currently have is my favorite smelling strain ever. I hope this phenotype smells like that. It's one of those strains that you keep smelling over and over again, it just keeps luring me back with that beautiful smell.

experiment explanation see week1 This week both different living soil experiments Tropicana No2 and No3 did not grow anymore...only the flowers got a bit bigger...especially No3

Thank you to everyone for following this journey! The results were nuts. Honestly, I would've been happy with 40g dry as this is my first grow. I DEFINITELY did not expect this outcome which is insane. This gives me so much confidence in my future grows and appreciation for the companies whose products I used. So, now to the point - Dry weight - Top class buds - 176g, smaller buds - 32g, larf/leaves/scissor hash - 26g. To sum up - 208g of product you can smoke and 26g that'll go to edibles. First grow, 2x2 tent, 100w light, three-part fertilizer and cal mag - that's insane, especially because I was expecting nothing more than 60g and like I mentioned, I would've been happy with 40g. I even thought my scale was broken or something went wrong, I still can't believe I pulled 208g of bud. It took 117 days from seed to smoke - that's disregarding the cure. Seed to flower in 42 days. Flower to harvest in 61 days. 14 days drying. Thank you to FastBuds, I've sent them an email about the grow with some questions and got a speedy reply with some pointers towards the end of the flower. Also, I don't have anything to compare this grow with but I had 0 issues with pests which I was really happy about. I didn't have to spray anything on the plants, didn't have a single bug inside the tent. They mention on the website that NL is a very resilient strain so that might've been because of this specific strain. Spiderfarmer light did amazing too - 208g of bud from 100w light!. General Hydroponics did way better than I expected - there's so many companies with multiple bottles of nutrients that expect you to spend ridiculous amounts of money on their products while I got crazy results with just 3 basic bottles. Cal and Mag by Canna worked with no complaints. Takeaways - seems like the runoff pH doesn't matter in coco - I could be wrong but I struggled with coco pH from the very beginning. Regardless, the outcome speaks for itself. Maybe the harvest would've been even better with an optimal pH but in this particular grow, I don't think it mattered much. Before starting this grow I've done A LOT of research and it looks like it most definitely paid off! I was panicking at first because of the slow growth. The plant also had some leaf deformities and the color wasn't as green as I've expected it to be. It was stressful at first, I think especially because I was constantly comparing my grow to someone else's. This specific LST method where I kept rotating the main stem clockwise every day or two paid off as well. The canopy was relatively even and new tops grew crazy fast. The only thing left to do is to cure the bud. I had two 1.5L containers ready for cure/storing since I didn't expect to pull much but had to go acquire a few more "big boys" to fit all the product in, which is a good problem to have. I don't think that I'll be updating the cure here but the plan is to burp 2x/day for 15-30min each time for the first week and 1x/day for 15-30min the second week. After the first couple of weeks I won't be timing the burps. As of now, I've placed boveda 62% packs inside the containers to maintain a RH of at least 58% in the jars. About the Northern Lights strain - the smell hasn't fully returned yet post trim, but it smells like sweet fruits with a hint of black pepper. You can still smell a bit of pine/grass but I think that'll be gone after the cure. Buds are covered with trichomes, they shine like diamonds when you take a better look. Also, the buds look a little airy but are still really dense when pressed. The smoke - It's a tasty, relaxing high. I get why people describe it as night time smoke but for me personally, it grounds me a bit and I can enjoy it anytime. Also, it burns white ash :)) P.S. This is a lengthy diary but I hope that people can learn some stuff from my notes shall they read them! Thanks to everyone that followed the journey, showed support or just browsed through. Happy Growing everyone!

The cold significantly stunted development. I cut it 20 days too early because I was afraid of botrytis spreading from other plants, but that was my mistake, as botrytis never reappeared on subsequent plants. 8 days drying with indirect wind and dark place. Small 3-liter vase, just a few grams, the crop still had more time to mature.

Alles zusammengefasst es war ein toller Grow hat Spaß gemacht.

Grow Diaries Report: A Challenging Week 🌱✈️ Week 6 – Plant Update This week brought a mix of growth and setbacks. While the plant continued to thrive with her characteristic stretch and bushiness, there were a couple of hiccups to navigate—one caused by me and the other by circumstance. Challenges This Week Limited LST: Unfortunately, I accidentally half-snapped a branch during training. While the branch is still attached and seems to be recovering, it limited my ability to continue LST effectively this week. No Photos: I was on vacation during most of the week, so I wasn’t able to document her progress with pictures this time around. Progress Despite Setbacks Despite these challenges, she’s looking healthy and continues to grow vigorously. The snapped branch has been gently supported, and I’ll be keeping a close eye on its recovery. What’s Next? Allow the damaged branch to heal naturally—no more training on it for now. Resume LST cautiously next week to manage her height and improve the canopy structure. Prepare to monitor her closely as I settle back in and ensure she hasn’t faced any additional issues during my absence. Conclusion This week had its ups and downs, but overall, she’s pushing through like a champ. Hoping for smoother sailing next week as I’m back to give her the attention she deserves! 🌿 If anyone has tips for dealing with a partially snapped branch, feel free to share below! 😊

Hey welcome back in the 7th week of flowering with the Dutch Passion’s Brooklyn Sunrise. This week the ladies are doing pretty well after giving giving them some PK 13-14 extra. You can really see that they are also finaly swelling and some of them just exploded! I will continue the normal feeding schedule from now on again. That’s it for now see you all next week!

day70 : today I start the flush on GSC # 2 Day72 : all GSC(3) are in the flush phase Day73 : after 7 and 10 days of flush, the first two plants (GSC#1 & Z.OG#1) are ready to be cut 👌 UPDATE : after a careful control of the grow box, I decided to start the flush phase on the other plants, except for 2 G.G. and the giant Z.OG 😎
