Harvest report for Ak47. Breaking ground to harvest was 91 days. Wet weight was 288 grams Dry weight =49g Power used for 13 weeks. 268.1Kw used on lighting. £80.43 at £0.30 a Kw Average 2.946 Kw a day =147 Watts power an hour during lights on. Dry weight from this grow. #1 49g #2 37g #3 46g #4 39g #5 51g #6 52g Total 273g True g/W 273÷147=1.85g/W This was one great grow and there are a few strains I'm really considering running again straight away. This strain is one that I want to grow again but give her a bigger pot. She has grown decent solid buds. One thing I have learnt during this grow is that the idea of cramming 9 autos into my tent was a stupid idea and trialling it with 6 plants was wise.

🗓️ Week 10 – Flower Week 6 (MAC n Cheese only) 📉 Nutrient management: At one point this week, MAC n Cheese showed elevated runoff EC values up to 2.2, signaling salt buildup. Through adjusted watering and reduced feed strength, the runoff was successfully brought down to a stable ~1.6–1.7. 🌿 Plant status: She looks vital and healthy – deep green foliage with no signs of fresh deficiencies or toxicity. Responding well to the current input EC of 1.0–1.3. 📝 Summary: Salt levels were close to the edge earlier in the week, but MAC n Cheese recovered well with a more balanced nutrient approach. Bloom development is now progressing evenly. Next week: Switching from Big Bud to Overdrive.

The plant was harvested and trimmed, yielding a total of 112 grams. Buds are notably dense, pleasantly heavy, and visually striking. Their surface exhibits a green velvet-like shimmer, which may indicate optimal trichome density and light-reflective resin coverage. This supports the hypothesis that late-stage environmental conditions—such as controlled humidity and light spectrum—contributed positively to resin production and bud structure. Further analysis during curing will help validate terpene retention and overall potency. Initial results suggest a successful harvest.

This week we haven't really experience anything too crazy, plant C had a little underwatering issue she got thirsty started to look pretty weak the 1st day of week 6 (for her only) she had recovered by the end of day 1 before going into the dark cycle. As the week progresses we should see some more tricome production and some more development of the bud sites. I'm hoping the underwatering that happened won't stunt or hurt the end yield too bad, that was a bad moment of laziness... whoops. Overall I haven't had any problems yet with pests there's been a lot of gnats and spiders on the outside of the tent but nothing on the inside. For a cheap tent it's working awesome. It does have some light leakaround the zippers but this isn't a problem for me as I'm growing in a darker area already. But if this were in a bright room all the time this tent would be a bad choice. Now as week 7 progresses we'll start seeing more rapid Bud development and see some increased tricome production. To think this girl (plant A) is just barely over halfway done is crazy. I have ended up removing the entire bottom 1/3 of the plant in the form of defoliation of the yellowed and dying leaves. People say don't defoliate Autos for shock reasons I hope it doesn't really matter.

Finishing up this run. Two plants have been chopped and I’m waiting on the final three. Pulled the two earlier than I wanted but it’ll just allow me to learn more. Hoping to chop these next week. All about the fade.

Ladies and gentlemen today is day 70 and yes, we are still in veg, but not for much longer.. I'm just waiting for some space to free up and we're about a week , week and a half from that happening.. i've broke a couple branches off her while training, but she has recouped very well and is as healthy as can be.. i like to think cannabia for letting me run this strain.I really look forward to it.. i'd like to add that i'm feeding her around . 5 tsp Maxibloom.. .5 tsp general hydroponics Silica and bloom city cal mag ..GD only recognizes one of the 3 nutrients I'm using. So I don't waste my time with the above section for it...hope everyone is doing well. Thanks for the likes and the love.God bless and happy growing ✌️

Started training the main stems towards the corners. Pulled the runt and actually wanted to pull the second runt, but the roots of the two left plants are tangled and I didn't want to damage the healthy plant. Started lst with pipe cleaners

Steady as she goes..... 🎶🎶 I put the ladies on the flip a Week earlier than I anticipated on the schedule matrix . I thought to myself best just get them done. 10 weeks from seed Vegging is enough. 3 weeks of that I count as seedling so 7 weeks Vegging. Started the flip the night before rather than on the day. With my micro I inspected the lady Phenom C on the right and 3 days at 12. Shows a tiny flower forming. I haven't fed them this week so far that's why it's not been logged. But after some experiments. with the TDS metre. I come up with a solution of 2ml grow and 5ml bloom for weeks 1 and 2. I have to say that the grow stuff is far more potent TDS wise than the bloom The bloom is far weaker the TDS value is 900ppm with that 2 week solution. My 3-7 week solution is 2ml grow 5ml bloom and 2ml plant magic ok booster lands at 1300 I could maybe knock back the bloom slight by a ML but let's see.

Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable theme in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 8 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in my moisture dome and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Blue cheese Auto from Royal queen seeds will turn out. Blue Cheese automatic cannabis seeds are a cross of Blueberry Automatic and Cheese Automatic that has been perfected over five years of breeding and careful selection. The result is a feminized, autoflowering strain with superior yield, flavor, and effects to either of its distinguished parent strains. THC: 16% CBD: Low Yield Indoor : 325 - 375 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 60 - 110 gr/plant Height Indoor: 40 - 70 cm Height Outdoor: 60 - 110 cm Flowering: 7 - 8 weeks Harvest month: 9-10 weeks after planting Genetic Background: Blueberry x Cheese x Ruderalis Type: Sa 35% In 40% Ru 25% Effect: Cerebral and uplifting Climate: Mild ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ 2017-10-16. Week 9 day 62 from germination. The girls are stacking up in budsites and i give max nutrients. Nr 1 is 55 cm tall, Nr2 is 112 cm tall and Nr 3 is 49 cm. Added new video and pics.

4/23/25 A few of these plants seem to be longer flowering genetics which is kind of annoying because of the feed schedule. ive been feeding them with the plan of 8-9 weeks flowering and we are starting week 8 it is day 50 since 12/12 and some of the plants are producing quite a bit of pistils with not much bud growth at the moment. But plant #3 is producing some nice chunky golf ball sized buds and is on track with my feeding schedule but some of these other plants might go 10 weeks Top dressed with: 2tsp of microbe charge 3tsp of Bloom

This week I added a new controller to handle up to 8 functions. I installed a new heater, my old humidifier and some LED strips to the controller. Targeting a VPD at 1.0 day and night. Trying to keep the nutrient ppm under 900 and ph at 6.0 in the reservoirs. Ordered a second ph pen because I don’t trust my readings. Will be here by Thursday. Friday: Checked the ppm in the reservoirs and it’s at 1,000. Added more RO water with extra nitrogen to bring the ppm level down to 925. Saturday: I installed an updated AC Infinity controller 69 Pro Plus (controls 8 pieces of equipment) which allowed me to add a humidifier, corner LEDs and a heater to the controller. Overall I’m extremely impressed with this AC Infinity equipment. My VPD is within the range I want to achieve (.8-1.1). I programmed it to maintain 78 degrees and 67% humidity during the day, 73 degrees and 63% humidity at night. Charts posted also show the impact of an open tent compared to the closed environment. The heater is constantly pushing fresh air into the tent, so I don’t need to cycle the exhaust fan often. Rewired the tent again and moved the controller later that night. I mounted the controller on the wall. Added Mars Hydro UV/IR lighting to fill out all 8 slots on the controller. Sunday: I checked the ph in the reservoirs (6.8….i had filled it with 6.0 ph) and the ppm (1200 ppm…I had filled it with 900). So evaporation and possibly a mismeasurement of ph. I topped ff reservoirs with slightly stronger nutes and adjusted ph to 5.8 in the reservoirs. Poor magnesium absorption could be driving some leaf yellowing. Effective tomorrow, I’m switching over to Heads Formula which consistently feeds GH Flora series nutes at Micro (6ml/g), Bloom (9ml/g) and cal mag (3ml/g). Turned on the UV/IR lights for 3 minutes every 8 hours. I’m easing the plants up to 5 minutes every 6 hours which will provide the recommended 20 minutes of IR per day. This will help the plants stretch a little more. Monday: checked ph and ppm in reservoirs. 6.1ph and 880ppm. VPD remains stable except when I open the tent. Tuesday: checked ph (6.4) and ppm (880) in reservoirs. Added .5ml of ph down to two reservoirs. Still see slight yellowing between the veins but it’s not getting worse (might be improving). Adjusting ph down to 6.0 target might have solved this. The plants grew by 1-2” last night…..is the infrared light working already? Decided to mix up fresh nutes for the reservoirs following Heads formula. 6ml Micro and 9ml Bloom per gallon of RO water. Added 5 ml of CalMag too. Ending ppm was 1080 which is too high, so I diluted down to 880 with RO water. 6.0 ph. Wednesday: plants grew another .75 inches last night. I topped above the 5th node. Thursday: added RO water with heavy cal mag to reservoirs to increase amount of CalMag available.

Comming into the 2022 season, this year I decided to go with a friend's prized cut of unknown bag seed origins. It was free and the flower I smoked was amazing. Let's see how they do this year. So as always started with 15 gal fabric pots and filled them up with promix hp. Amended the soil with 70/30 ratio of Gaia green 444 and 284 at 4tspg. This year I also decided to amend the soil with worm castings at 7.5lbs/15gal of soil. For watering we used tap water @6.4pH mixed with 50mL of molassas to 5 gal of water. Stick trap indicators are put up to monitor pests such as gnats. The ladies are about 6-8weeks old clones for reference. See you on the next update!

This will be my 1st auto run. Other than one time I was sent some free f1 autos from rqs and I started some but I ended up tossing them for some reason or another. I am actually super excited to try out fastbuds. I have been wanting to try out fastbuds for over a year now. I'm not the greatest with seedlings so I am doing a test run with a 2x2 tent I'm gonna try and grow the best plant I get out if the 3 seeds hopefully it doesn't out grow my small 2x2 tent . Pound cake thou looks like a killer strain with some fat buds can't wait to see how fast fast buds really are. Here we go.

day 70 into flower day 87 from seed today is the day im suppose to be harvesting, but the tricomes are not were i need to be. im giving them a couple of more days to finish off. hopefully day 73 might even go a little longer one plant which was the runt was ready i did manage to trim and harvest i have it hanging letting dry out before i cure it in jars. nice yield on the little plant i haven't weight it yet. ive added a video time lapse of me harvesting the my one plant very dank smell to it. my fiskars got sticky. i saved all the trim for later date to make some bubble hash. right the plants are receiving water water a dose of grandmas molasses. the plants look great cant wait to spark some up😵
