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.

*Growdiaries deleted this section (don't ask me why). So everything in this week is from the top of my head (like 2 weeks later): _Environment This week, I went back to watering (gently) to get the soil used to a ‘normal’ assimilation rate again. As a result, the temperature dropped slightly, while the relative humidity increased at the same time (which was of course elevated by the fact that I removed the sand at the end of last week). _Plants + Training Gentle defoliation continued this week. However, it became apparent that Mimosa Cake Auto requires significantly more attention than Gorilla Z Auto, as it grows incredibly densely and intertwines. It also seemed like the Mimosa Cake Auto was about to crack due to the high forces (no space to bend and stretch because everything is just nodes and side branches). *Gorilla Z Auto was ??? cm tall, Mimosa Cake Auto ??? cm. _Organisms As you can see, microbial life is still in full swing. Numerous springtails can be seen (yellow sticky traps), Oribatida are decomposing organic material, etc. _Living Soil To check the most important indicator of healthy soil life, I carried out a pH test this week. This showed a value of 7, which is slightly too high but definitely within an acceptable range. [Living soil should be between 6 and 7, ideally 6.4–6.6.] _(Pre)Flower Mimosa Cake also started showing its first pistils (it seems like both plants are 5 - 10 days apart).

This past week has been a blast! After getting these ladies nutrition straightened out, they are thriving!💚🌱💚 I gave defoliated wayyy more than what I see other growers traditionally doing. After the "3rd and final haircut" I defoliated two more times 😅 Thank you the GD community for the support and resources along the way 🙏 My only concern now is the tent actually becoming too crowded.😆. Other then that I am thinking it should be smooth sailing these next 6 weeks or so. 🏴‍☠️😎🏴‍☠️ Happy Growing! 💚💪🌱😎🌱💪💚

girl, from the beginning she was watered with water from the tap, the value of which is almost 350ppm. and a lot of lime, which prevents me from growing it bigger, but I'm happy with the result :) it's a small pot and only 50 w :) the flowers look very beautiful and sticky :) super ​

Day 42 FLOWERING: Good afternoon ( in the UK anyway) brownies. It has been a steady weeks bud building this week and outing imposters!. I have somehow managed to mix pits during the initial set up and have two ladies representing their opposite strains !!!!!. Doh The girl scout cookie #2 is actually the #3 Amnesia Haze and the #3 is the Girls scout #2 . I have suspected it for a while but they have failed in their ploy to fool me and their ripening phases have given thwirbruse up. Seeing how similar the #3 was to the #1Girl Scout and how close they were in finishing to each other too , it was way more evident now that the #1Girls scout looks ready to come out for her dark period . She has finished very quickly and i am in no doubt she is done with most of her pistils being a golden orange now. She has many small clusters of buds but is not going to win any yield cups I dont think. She smells so sweet and edible though with a sticky feel too. Her leaves have a really beautiful fade too . So e very nice colours among the cannabalising. I dont think the # 2 will be far behind in her finish either with her pistils starting to orange up now. Now that the #3 amnesia is correctly identified and in the right row , it is clear to see how they all look alike and are at the same stage in bud development. They are a 77 day (11 weeks) flowering period and are still in their bud building stage with a huge production in trichromes taking place too. Thet are so like Gorilla glue #4 in their look which can only be a good thing... The #1 and 2 are bigger than the @3 purely due to the lst I did . They both have medium sized colas for info ar al of their mains so hopefully will have some donkey dick buds covered in frost around week 9-10. Bud porn ahead I think. Normal feedings for these ladies for the upcoming weeks but the G.S.C are going to be fed with water a few days now to let them know its time!!!!. Be safe and red eyed folks. Until next time. tata

Apollo is coming along nicely and enjoying new friends, zkittles, gorilla cookies and granddaddy purple. All autos. Godzilla cookies is the runt. Apollos schedule : Water & feed Tues, Thurs, and Sunday. Increased TPS to early bloom at 9ml/g and Signal to 3ml/g. I think she could use more fertilizer but I'm gun shy on feeding too much. I noticed the new leafs are thinner than veg leaves indicating early flower. No pics on 10/12. My special day. 10/13 pics and video outside before first defoliation. And after defoliation. Note to reduce impact of stress, I ground up 1 of my B vitamins and dispersed in water after feeding on Friday 13th. Apollo is strong. Once I did definition you can really see her. 1)Very thick strong stem. 2) Very tight node structure. There was no space between the first and 2nd leaf group. 3) Side shoots almost as thick as the mail stem 4) roots at the soil top. I used MycoBliss in the soil and planting hole.

Week 17 Last week before harvest. Just let the plants ending the maturation process. Good synchronization between the different strains, selected with an approximate identical flowering period. I want harvesting all the plants at the same time. Flowers are dense, hard and thick, pretty resinous. 4 strains = 4 different smells, 4 different colors….🤩 I flushed consciously and stopped watering 4 days before the harvest day. I turned off the light during 48h, with ventilation on. All is ready for the cut. Date is programmed to the full moon period….why not…🤔 I will trim a little bit the plants before cutting and hanging them in the tent with the same ventilation cycle, no light of course…

Epic Harvest Chronicle: The Journey of Panty Punch Auto In the annals of our cultivation journey, there exists a tale of unparalleled growth, resilience, and triumph. Join me as we embark on an epic chronicle, tracing the extraordinary journey of Panty Punch Auto from a humble seed to a majestic harvest, overcoming obstacles and defying expectations at every turn. Our saga begins with the planting of a single seed, filled with the promise of potential and the whisper of destiny. From the moment she emerged from the soil, Panty Punch exuded an aura of vitality and vigor, her roots delving deep into the earth as if driven by an ancient force. As Panty Punch grew, so too did the challenges that beset her path. With each passing day, she stretched towards the heavens with an insatiable thirst for light and life, threatening to outgrow her confines. It was then that we intervened, bending and securing her with sticks and glue, a testament to our determination and ingenuity in the face of adversity. Rooted in organic soil enriched with Aptus nutrients, Panty Punch flourished under the gentle care of nature-inspired solutions. From seedling to harvest, she received a balanced diet of essential minerals and organic compounds, fueling her growth and vitality. It's a testament to the power of soil and nutrients in cultivating robust and vibrant plants, and Aptus has undoubtedly played a pivotal role in our success. In all my years of cultivation, I've never beheld anything quite like Panty Punch Auto. She stands as a towering testament to the potential of autoflowering genetics, defying convention and surpassing all expectations. From her towering height to her abundant foliage, she is by far the largest auto I've ever had the pleasure of growing. It's a testament to the marvels of modern breeding and the boundless possibilities that lie within the realm of autoflowering cannabis. Guided by the radiant glow of the Lumatek Zeus LED, Panty Punch thrived under the sun-like spectrum of light that bathed her in brilliance. From vegetative growth to flowering, the results spoke for themselves, with dense buds and resinous trichomes adorning her branches like jewels in a crown. The Lumatek Zeus proved to be the cornerstone of our success, providing the perfect balance of intensity and efficiency to fuel Panty Punch's journey to harvest. Throughout her growth cycle, Panty Punch was under the watchful gaze of the TrolMaster Tent-X, a marvel of modern cultivation technology. With precision control over every aspect of her environment, from temperature and humidity to lighting schedules, the Tent-X ensured that Panty Punch had everything she needed to thrive. It's not just a controller; it's the key to unlocking the full potential of our cultivation endeavors. Rooted in the rich genetic lineage of her parents, Panty Punch Auto is a testament to the breeding prowess of Seedstockers. According to the breeders, she is the progeny of select auto-flowering genetics, carefully bred to exhibit exceptional vigor, potency, and yield. With each generation, her lineage has been refined and perfected, resulting in the awe-inspiring specimen that stands before us today. As we bid farewell to Panty Punch Auto, we do so with a sense of awe and reverence for the journey we've shared. From seed to harvest, she has been a beacon of resilience and vitality, a testament to the power of nature and human ingenuity. And as we savor the fruits of our labor, we extend heartfelt thanks to Aptus Holland for their unwavering support, to TrolMaster for their innovative technology, to Grow Diaries for the platform that connects us all, and to the vibrant community of growers for their endless inspiration and camaraderie. In the end, Panty Punch Auto stands not just as a plant, but as a symbol of what is possible when we dare to dream and nurture those dreams into reality. May her legacy endure for generations to come. #PantyPunchAutoAdventure #RootsAndFruits #TrolMasterControl #GrowDiariesCommunity #CultivationExcellence Genetics - Panty Punch Auto - https://seedstockers.com/ Plant nutrition - Aptus Holland - https://aptus-holland.com LED Photons - Lumatek - https://lumatek-lighting.com Controls - Trol Master - https://www.trolmaster.eu/ Watering - myself Love and attention - Me, myself and i As always thank you all for stopping by, for the love and for it all , this journey of mine wold just not be the same without you guys, the love and support is very much appreciated and i fell honored and blessed with you all in my life, With true love comes happiness.

This plant was an absolute dream to. Grow, no issues at all with health of plant, just struggled to tame her as she was a a thick strong climber 💪💪. I'm so impressed with how this turned out, I could have flushed for another 3 days to make it 12days but I needed the space. After The 2 days of dark I was recommended I can definitely say it has vastly boosted her trichomes and the smell when I opened the tent blew my head away 😍😋 Aiming for a 10-14 day hang dry, The 10-12 weeks curing in jars with humidity packs. I will update with a dry bud weight and smoke test 👌 Bud wet weight is just 500g+ Final bud dry weight is 298g. Of juicy resinous purple and orange buds 😍 smells like sherbert and hang dry smoke test revealed a candy sherbert, no banana yet but hoping like the grow it matures with cure process now. Hits eyes straight away, sandy bottom kids, giggles, munchies, fun time with Mrs, bed. Full cycle with this one very happy over here 😉😁💚 FAT BANANA AUTO FROM ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS, big thank you to the team, and the breaders. What a pheno I received. I appreciate you all
