Overall, this is 9th week of flower for the entire F'22 grow season. With French Macaron beginning week 7 flower and Afgooey #1 and #2 in mid-week 5 of flower. The Afgooey #3 is just starting to form tiny budlets after an extensive defoliation as she's squatty with lots of foliage. Updates & Observations - a lot of maintenance this week from continual ph'ing and flushing as Afgooey #2 has joined the French Macaron with low ph runoff readings. Given I'm growing in a living soil mix with periodic top dressings and teas every 7-10 days, I'm stumped. So, no more feedings for the French Macaron until harvest. Decided that next watering I will flush both girls with fresh rain water captured/stored which I have stored outside in 30 gallon barrels. Rain water tested at 7.2 ph, which to me is good enough for the flushing. It's raining for 3-4 days next week, so this will exhaust existing supply and replace with fresh rain water. Perfect timing. Will update next week.

Hey Guys, Growth has taken off a lot this past week, have had to add a heater to the grow which isn’t ideal but with warmer months coming this should only be temporary. I have the thermostat set to start the heater when temps go below 23°c. Watching Dr Bruce Bugbee on YouTube, he stated that growth does start to suffer below this temperature. One of the plants has some odd colours and growth which I’m pretty sure is Mg deficiency, which is probably due to that particular girl being more sensitive to PH swings than the rest of the ladies. I have had to insulate some of the circulating pipes as the water cooler was struggling to keep the water baths cool. Seems to have helped keep temps down a couple more degrees, I mate have to reconfigure where my water cooler is in the piping run after this grow Finally a special thanks to the GD team for selecting my previous diary for DOTM, very flattering considering some of the great content that was submitted for March 2020! Happy growing all!

Crazy growing going on , looking we’ll see for yourselves, I don’t want to say anything as pictures speak louder than words 💪 Also we now have conclusive proof that soil plants ripen faster , the soil ones look at least 1 week ahead with flowers forming Adding biobizz nutrients to Soil plants , watered 3l each Friday Changed solutions Saturday Reduced daytime to 1130 Watered 3.5 l monday soil ones definitely ahead - why ? They all exactly the same plants

Perfect. Now when to harvest? Seeing about 20 percent amber in some buds. Others are still only cloudy. The beginning of week 8 starts in 4 days. But I transitioned to flowering lighting over the course of a week. So maybe tomorrow. maybe the next day too. As soon as I see more than 30 percent amber trichomes on main colas(all of them) I will harvest. Ripening buds are a true beauty. Damn these are a sight to behold. This is my second grow. I learned a lot. I love it. So smelly I just can't believe it. Tried to take a trichome pick. Still maybe 15 percent amber color starting to appear

Hello everyone! I am proud to announce that I have been asked to grow a seed of choice from Kannabia. My choice fell on the Break up cake auto strain. Strain info https://www.kannabia.com/en/autoflowering-cannabis-seeds/break-up-cake-auto I hope you will enjoy this new grow just like I will do. Let's set another record for this strain, just like with the previous strain.👌 ENVIROMENT: Light schedule : 24/0 Humidity : 60% Soilmoisture : 42% Temp : 26 Celsius Week 3 She is 25 cm high ( counted from Lightweight Expanded Clay : height 3cm || soil to top is 28cm total ) now and looks healthy so far so good. 500ml of water every 24h Increased co2 1100 PPM - 1150 PPM The temperature & humidity on the little screen is with my tent open. So it does not reflect the reality. Who am i ? until last november i have always grown hydro for a little over 11 years. But growing started to look more and more like work because i was more busy with programming my controllers for the ph / humidity / lights / co2 / temperature. Also the realization that i have 2 children and my own house made me nervous for the authorities because where i live growing is not allowed. So i decided to grow smaller where i previously had 200x180x200 space i opted for 70x70x160 with the result that i can only grow 1 strain at a time. The intention is to remain self-sufficient in this way and still be able to exchange or give away something here and there at a party. Although I am sponsored I will not be able to grow every strain because not every strain can deliver the result I need to remain self-sufficient. If you know of an auto strain or photo strain that takes at least 11 to 15 weeks I would like to know so that I can grow it in the future and of course I will try to set a record for that grown strain. Because during the 4 grows that I can do per year I can only try to achieve a record since I cannot show you multiple strains at once. I am happy that after 11 years I have found growdiaries and that I have met you my friends. Greetings MonyetDiablero.

it's amazing, this growth looks much better than my first attempt, my decision was to put a smaller pot and change the light - the girl really liked it, FastBuds goriilla cookies with a small space manage perfectly:).

Nov/21 She grew like crazy. Big green fan leaves coming in. Branches are growing strong. Smell is starting to get intoxicating. i finally got over my habit of nervous watering and am feeding the girls way less and they're happy. Cant wait to flip this girl to flower. No problems this week at all. 11/29 Shes growing ok. Green and healthy branches and leaves. She growing more like a sativa, sativa hybrid tall and branchy, manageable fan leaves but because of that she started to get some light burn. Dont have my tent yet so i cant adjust my light any higher so i tried to lower the plant down a little So hoping she can do without super direct light for another day or so. Other than that shes looking healthy. (some of this is the same as White Widow diary) 11/30 It wouldn't let me do veg and flower in the same week on the diary so i just split it up in here. Two busy days. Tent came i!! which im super excited about because now i flip the girls to flower. It wouldnt let me do veg and flower in the same week on the diary so i just split it up in here. I spent tuesday putting the tent together and dropped a video of the new setup because im REALLY excited about. got the ladies nice and cozy. Started them on 12/12. Its my first time on an indoor grow so i hope it works out well Shes super healthy. Super green leaves are big stems are thick everything is a lovely dark green i can smell it more because theyre tented now. but it looks great. 12/1 topped dressed with some happy frog soil I couldnt add the castings amount in the thing above So ill say i mixed about a quarter of the amount of soil into about 1 to 2 gallons of top soil i had some down to earth dry amendments i mixed in with that soil as well. i couldnt tell how much soil exactly. I only put in 5 tsp of great white instead of the recommended 7 because i switched the bloom nutes and i didnt wanna over do it i couldnt tell how much soil exactly. Fed them some flowering nutes, but cut back on the amount of nutes by a lot. Decided im going to just follow what biobizz instructions say from now on so apparently less is better. started the bloom and the top max kept everything else the same and cut out the fish mix for flower, added great white at the end. Defoliated the bottom few branches and cleaned any growth at wasnt going to produce. Nothing to major. 12/2 Temp of tent is steady at 70, 71 degrees. thats a little bit lower than id like but ill figure out something in the next few days. Took the bottom branches and leaves the night before and Wanted to give it a night of rest before i defoliated the big leaves. Took most of them off but left the few at the top of the plant. Looking extremely green. Hoping i get to see some pistils soon.

2025/03/24 : 10s in sandpaper tube, then 2h in X-seed and in easy-plug watered with trikologic (1g/L). Expanded clay are in pH 5.5 for 3 days, allmost ready. I'll set up cultimate S with first nutritive solution a few days too. 2025/03/27 : TC popped out! 2025/03/28 : As tap root is out of easy-plug, I'll give easy-pyramid mini a try (1.2L). I watered it with Terra Aquatica "first roots" schedule and will let it enroot under SF300. I finished Cultimate S setup and figured I need more expanded clay so, back in 5.5 pHed water... I prepared "first true leaves" solution to check if pH stays OK for a few days in active cultimate. 2025/03/30 : nothing special

With this thick headbud, there is a risk of getting wet and bad weather and we dont want any budrod so we cut the headbud after 66 days from seed to harvest we took away some fan leafs and hung it up to dry. the lower buds may need a few more days. Its really unbelieveble how much resin she produces. smoking report is following

During the tenth and final week of the flowering stage, the plants exhibited excellent development in both overall size and bud density. Although a reddish pigmentation was initially expected, the calyxes developed dark, almost black tones, resulting in a visually striking appearance. The RHC#1 phenotype displayed a greener foliage, with leaves beginning to show subtle reddish hues at the tips, providing an appealing contrast. The dominant aroma profile combines strong cheese-like notes with sweet, fruity undertones, which are expected to intensify during the curing process. Irrigation was carried out only during the first three days of the week, using water adjusted to a pH of 6.3. The plants were then kept in darkness for the final two days to promote the final maturation of the trichomes. At present, the flowers are undergoing a controlled drying phase, with stable humidity and temperature parameters. The cultivation process was completed without any significant issues, and the overall results are highly satisfactory, reflecting a successful execution of the growth cycle.

Last Obi-Wan girl was left in dark for 3 days and then chopped on day 66 and is now drying. She was definitely the largest of all 4 plants in the tent. Cant wait to see the dry weight on this girl! Next update will be when all the bud is dry and we have a final weight for all 3 together. The first one we chopped only gave us just over 4oz dried but she was half the size as the other 3 girls and kinda lower in the corner. Pulled 7.4oz off the Wedding Cake in the same tent/setup and these last 2 Obi-Wan’s that are still drying are bigger then she was by a lot I think. Cheers 💨

21 st day of 12/12. Defoliation. Try smaller containers or longer veg. Plants should be able to drink at least its pots water holding capacity once a day. Will try 5 liters of medium. Somę of them drinking more than 2 liters a day. Much better to overage and remove branches than not enough root mass.
