8/22/2021 - Did some mid-flower defoliation to increase airflow and to prevent mold and mildew. - Split the top right main from trying to train her down and spread out the canopy, supporting with tape and twist ties. 8/23/2021 - Top right main is still vigorous after split.

3/14: Came back from a 4 day vacation to a lot of dry, wilted, dead leaves on Amnesia. Trainwreck is super starved as well. My automatic watering system didn't kick on, and the humidifier ran out of water within 24 hours, so there's that. It may be for the better though, as the PH of the nutrients had risen to 7.5. I tossed that mix, and made another 2 gallons of half strength nutes, molasses and epsom salt. I watered them both to runoff, and now I'll wait for Amnesia to prioritize which leaves she thinks are worth saving, and then I'll defoliate the dead ones. Hopefully trainwreck will just bounce back to green. She needed to be defoliated anyway, so this situation makes it easier for me to find the dead leaves. Edit: Came back to feed the last of the nutes and decided to pluck the crispy goners. I found that pulling the leaf stem downward will make the most dead leaves fall right off, allowing me to test a majority of the leaves and give Amnesia a major haircut. Luckily I left a lot of leaves from prior defoliation, as Amnesia REALLY sucked them dry. 3/15: Amnesia looks no worse for wear than last night. Trainwreck as well. Went ahead and pulled as many dead leaves off Trainwreck as I could. Some leaves were a mix of crispy brown and healthy green, which I think is pretty goofy, so I avoided taking any green fans but removed the crispy ones. The colors of the leaves around the buds are really fun to look at. 3/16: Amnesia is starting to SHED her dead leaves, allowing me to pick the leaves with almost no effort. I tested as many leaves as I could, giving another haircut. I would say this isn't a good thing, but since it's my first grow, I'm rolling with it. As long as Amnesia keeps the buds and its nearest leaves alive, it will slowly grow, albeit stunted. I'm not sure if this condition will cause it to finish sooner, but I'm going to need to watch the trichomes under a microscope every couple of days just in case she's ready for harvest. Trainwreck looks about the same as it did before. No new leaves are ready to be removed there yet. 3/19: Amnesia is still shedding leaves, but also bulking up. Trainwreck is slowly bulking up, and turning purple as well! Going to keep an eye on Amnesia's trichomes. Edit: because amnesia is yellowing so much, and because it's been 5 days, I'm going to feed both plants a quarter strength nutrient mix just in case I've been overfeeding them somehow.

I figured I’d rock a decent update now what I don’t have anymore plants on the go. These were neglected from the start, although they seem to be making some pretty sweet buds. Tricombs are increasing, and starting to get cloudy. This is going to be my first sativa harvest so hopefully it turns out ok. I went a bit hard on the nutes the other day, I may have to give them a flush. The leaves are starting to curl and get brown. I’ll see how it looks in a few days. That’s it for this week, now get out there and enjoy the last of summer. Cheers.

I start by saying that the genetics of this fantastic and super plant, the only exemplary because I was given after ordering, the first time I cultivated this variety .. I never had any problem from germination at the end of harvest, made grow for 6 weeks approximately with light hours 18/6, then kept in bloom for 10 weeks ...... and from about 10 days to dry with temperatures between 19/20 degrees, and humidity rate to 50% between today and tomorrow I'll make a nice manicure.

Week 4 for Strawberry Gorilla by Fastbuds She's clearly enjoyed her FPJ feeding that she got, look at the size of her compared to last week.... She may end up larger than Moby dick but i think that would be asking for too much😂 I will be moving her outdoors today most likely maybe tomorrow if i dont have time to do it. If you see in the video shes actually got some fasciation going on where one of my side branches was almost like doubled and ended up topping itself & splitting into 2 😂 Happy with her progress 😁

Nice plant. Lollipopping and defoliation is a must. Bring that energy up to the tops. She grows very compact with short internodes.

This summer is full of surprises! That's why I'm proud to introduce you to part of my new grow in collaboration with the amazing @Exotic_Seed 🙏 This adventure begins with Malasaña Gelato, a cross between (Gelato33 X Do-Si-Dos) X Malasaña Cookies that looks really good and yummy. 😛😛 I was really curious to try a new variety of Gelato, a strain that I have been in love with for a year now and I finally have the chance to expand my knowledge. The seed germinated in 24 hours directly in the soil, in the next few days I will transplant it into its final pot. 💪 The Malasaña Gelato will grow under the powerful light of my new Mars Hydro TS1000 for which I thank @MarsHydroLED and @SallyZou415 😘 A tasty summer is on the way!😍

Hello growers and tokers! 👋 👩‍🌾 🧑‍🌾.🔥💨 As you can see these ladies are growing nicely. They're both at the same height 59cm but one is wider than the other. Quite nice so far. That's 12cm in one week same as the Royal Gorilla. Evenly spread canopy, the one that had better shape from the start now has longer colas. Both are stacking nodes nice and tight. They have a nice green color to them but you can't really appreciate that in the pictures. I'm still trying to get a hand of this new phone, I might just go back to the camera. 🤔 Starting to get a little shine to them, I think this strain will be the first in forming trichomes. They give off a nice smell but I can't put my finger on it yet. Feeding 1,5L each, every other day. Will be increasing as they ask for more. How do they ask for more? When feeding if the soil is drier than normal I give a 150-200ml increment of water. I do that until they stop feeding so much then i just maintain that amount. I start reducing if it takes longer to dry. That works good for me. The old finger in the dirt trick. 👍 Nothing like knowing exactly what your ladies need first hand. **Info and pictures were taken at day 12 of flower.** Hope you enjoyed this week's update. Stay tuned for next week. 😃 If you like this check out the other diaries of the strains in the tent. 😄 Take care and stay safe! One love!✌️🏽

They did well the first week in the bucket. Rude started appearing after three days and these pictures were taken one week after being put in the parts. I changed the nutrients to 1/2 strength I kept the light about 18 inches over the tops of the plants

Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great weekend. The ladies had another great week, I got the Durban Nights, Red Hot Cookies, and Sundae Driverr's second toppings completed on day 26, and I got the second toppings done on the Green Crack and Bubble Runtz on day 27. Right now I have 4 mains on each plant, and I will top each one this week, probably in the next 3-4 days which will leave with me 8 mains. So the mainlines will be completed during week 5, and I plan to flip to flower around week 7. I am still seeing a couple holes on the leaves of the Sundae Driver, but I have treated her twice with neem oil and I don't see any new holes since the last application and I can't see any bugs even with magnification. I am still not sure if it was a bug issue or just a genetic thing. Either way I am not too concerned at this point because they all seem to be very healthy. I am still feeding GH nutrients, silica, cal mag, and maxi grow. I will transition to flower nutrients approximately one week after flipping to flower. I have found that it is important to continue feeding plenty of Nitrogen through the stretch. The only way I would transition sooner is if I was running out of vertical space. Still very pleased with the Spectrum X from Medic Grow. I am running her at 69% and the plants seem very happy and healthy. The heat and humidity are finally letting up in my region so it is nice to be able to open some windows and drop the temp outside the grow tent. I hope everyone has a great weekend, Thanks for stopping by, Stay Safe and Blaze On!!! 💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Divine indica has sprouted on the second seed. She stretched a lot due to the seed husk was giving her trouble. She got that off with a pinch of help and has opened up. So far she is looking good. Already on a journey. She will get moved to another area in a few weeks if not sooner. She will be really fighting for light with the stretching autoflowers she Is in with now. Thank you Divine Seeds, and Spider Farmer. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🌱🌱🌱 Thank you grow diaries community for the 👇likes👇, follows, comments, and subscriptions on my YouTube channel👇. ❄️🌱🍻 Happy Growing 🌱🌱🌱 https://youtube.com/channel/UCAhN7yRzWLpcaRHhMIQ7X4g

So week 9 is done and dusted and these girls are absolutely stinking , this is my first ever grow but ive smoked my fair share of bud and I must say the smell in the tent is one of the strongest ive ever smelt.... So anyway back to week 9... its been plain sailing really ive got some baby GSC autos in with the white widows so ive kept a dome on them obviously to keep the humidity up... The girls really are packing on the crystals now and I dont think we are to far away from cutting her down.. the packet said 11 weeks but im more guessing it will be around 13 weeks, either way there isn't much to report apart from she continues to be a dream to grow and ill he back for week 10's update very soon.... enjoy the pics and videos 😍 Happy growing people.... 😍😍

This week is really a cruise control week! Day 77,78; Did nothing for the girls today. #1 is indoors soaking up the light. #2 has adjusted well to outdoors. I only flipped a little over a week ago but I feel like the stretch is finished? They arent getting much taller. Day 79: Watered #1 today using recharge. They love this stuff!! #1 did great in transition. She didnt yellow at all. The CMOG dont like water either. I've finally got that through my head lol. Day 80; I checked on number 2. I should have kept her indoors and put something else out. She smells fantastic!! Waaay stronger than #1 an earthy menthol scent with hints of coffee and chocolate. #1 is starting to really bloom and show what sites will be prime. I've defoliated constantly removing leaves that block more light than they absorb. Day 82; Caged #2 today. Just to help give some support from the high winds we have been having lately. Also to spread her out a bit. I also gave a top dress of roots organic uprising bloom. (3-6-4) Day 83; Terp tea time! Idk if I should be even feeding them. They seem happy and healthy and everyone says Less is more. But I had to give some of the other plants some tea, so I figured #1 could get some too. She loved it btw. Happy happy girls!!

Day 30: Switching to Bloom and Iguana Bloom replaced veg and adding BB to push the process. Picked up a pressure sprayer/mister to get the Grease and Golden Goddess more involved on a foliage level. I think I'm gonna water again @ the start of light cycle tomorrow with VPT along with my Carbo load, B2 Budx and Rhino and turn light up for a few. Day 31: Went on and watered my plants this morning with a health doese of the VPT mix to get all of my soil moist this morning and have been monitoring. Think the root system is appreciating it because I defoliated and already looking lush agai Can't wait til I'm knock'n on heavens door!!!! Day 32: Just fed 2nd bloom feeding with a twist. I got to reading about how to mix the Bud Blood and found that it is very strong and that you should mix to dissolve in warm water. I have a lab mixer so mixed a liter with a tsp for a mix with the dropper when needed. Glad i got the mixology recommendation early enough. Have not really been holding back on the feeding and am pretty generous with my nutrients, so going for big results. Smoking some Green Crack right now and just hope my GC is as good as this I'm smoking now. Day33: My plants are sleep and I'm not so that means I'm thinking about grow stuff. So I fed my 2nd bud blood feeding yesterday around 4ish.....in the middle of light cycle. 3:30am in the dark they are wilting a bit. I mean I understand without photosynthesis there is wilting especially if nutrients are in the plant. In a 7 day cycle these girls are getting water every 24hours wether feeding or roots(that VTP mix gets toggled with add in's for root health) but think that in this bloom phase, gonna start feeding @ beginning of light cycle to get as much photosynthesis hours with the Bud Blood as I can so that the nutrients work as they should. Not wanting my plants to "burn" with the nutrients under that 6...... the 1. Today will be working and watching and will probably give em time to kind of just get adjusted for these next 5 weeks. I have a mix of Grease and Golden Goddess that I will spray when they awake and will be monitoring temperature and humidity to keep my VPD in 1.7 area. Day 34: So started the light cycle with my 2nd feeding in the bloom stage. Got a healthy feed on with some added cal-mag to ensure that I don't get any type of nutrient lock. Pretty impressed with the BB as my plant's are starting to show her flowers. There like dots of star's all over my grow. Have been slacking on the defoliation and considering lollipop but since these are AF and this is my first grow to let em kind of just grow and keep the light bright. Already thinking about my next grow and these FF's!!!! That's gonna be my winter grow and going to use the knowledge from this grow towards that grow. Day 35:Got 2 more feed cycles with the BB but might go with igniter on a few now that budding is starting. Observing for now and thinking maybe one more deflation but looking great.

Added video on may 16 for a good look May 11 We are now almost at the end and I must say it sparkles more than anything else I have had so far I specifically took photos and the video using only the light from my phone. Despite the burn marks, she's a real sight to behold. She makes it difficult for me to take photos with a flash because she's covered in trichomes that simply bounce the light back. The buds look great and healthy and are now in their final stages of ripening. I hope everyone enjoyed this cup. I've been through thick and thin with this plant, and I really enjoyed it.Regardless of whether I win the cup or not, I'm already a winner with this beautiful plant. It smells great, and I'm already looking forward to smoking it. Thank you all for your attention. This is the largest diary entry I'll be making, in terms of pictures. Of course, there will be more pictures and videos until the end of May. She will now receive advanced nutrients as prescribed and Plagron's Green Sensation for the rest of the time. In one or two weeks I change the water and just let them stand in normal water. THANKS 🙏🏻🔥😌❤️
