Well, not much has changed, so it's kind of like 'same same but different' around here. The plants are still vibing, doing their thing, just with a little more oomph this week.

End of week 5 bloom has been the same. One day full nuts from go box as recommendation, base nut doubled plus: GH silica, AN bud candy and FF Cha Ching at half dose. The Next day full base nut, full dose of Cha ching and beastie bloomz just below half dosage. Plants seem to love it. It does get warm when lights turn on so I have the door open while lights are on. Smell is lovely. Can still smell it even with the carbon filter at full speed. Its a mild smell. Getting very happy with the out come for being my first grow. Still too early for the final out come. Wish me luck.

AK-47 Goxuak Autoflower by Genehtik is a truly awesome plant and really really fun to grow! My 1st thought was I wish I had know more when I ordered the seeds. I only bought 1 from the single seed centre .com 🤦‍♂️ Of all the plants our house sitters watched for us back in week 7, this is the only one they regularly ask about and want to know when its finished. Even they loved growing it! And they only spent a week with her and aren't gardeners 😄 Ashoka started in a Jiffy tomato pod and was transplanted almost as an afterthought. In fact we ran out of containers and had to improvise with the water pitcher. (We didn't have high hopes) Oops. The pitcher turned out to be a big benefit in that I could see the roots and diagnose and potential issues. She has been in the same Fox Farms; Happy Frog soil ever since planting the pod into the pitcher. The soil held up good too. Ashoka didn't start showing any deficiencies until the end of week 6, around the middle of her stretch. Correcting this was very easy, we added the recharge at first but it didn't quite do it. We had to feed her Advanced Nutrients Bloom and Grow for about 2.5 weeks. But this Goxuak really never complained : 1:😎 Low Stress Training (LST) for Ashoka was a breeze! At 14 days she was 4" tall and too short to train. She doubled in height in a week and we started training around day 24. Just in the nick of time too! She entered flower about a week after that and stretched like crazy!🤪 the AK-47 gave us about 3 full weeks of nice flexible branches to train before hardening up. We ended up with a pretty even canopy and some solid colas too I wanted to touch on the lighting as there isn't a lot of options on this platform. Ashoka spent her life under 2 different lights. 1st, she sprouted and spent the first 4 weeks vegging under 2x Viparspectra 600w(250 true watts) LEDs at an 18/6 light cycle. She finished her flower and fade under A Optic 8 (500 true watts) LED. At 18/6 At around day 60 I started flushing her.(well my house sitter Sam did the first time) We used Cyco Kleanse and flushed 5 Gallons thru her until the ppm was down to 350ish, I did the next 2 flushes. The 2nd I used Kleanse again getting the runoff ppm to ~120. Her final week I stopped ph-ing the water and just watered tap. I also gave her the 3rd and final flush with straight Ice cold tap water. She really showed a great fade!! Some buds definitely colored up too!! Finally the Harevst: I put her in a 5Gal bucket of ice in complete darkness for 4 days.😈 This was done with the intent to help her produce more resin and frost up. I can't say if it truly worked. She absolutely doubled the trichome production in those 4 days, but idk if it was the time or the darkness and ice. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ I kept her in a sealed closet with a oscillating fan and humidifier at 75°and 63%RH. On the 3rd day I lowered the RH to 50%. She got trimmed and put into jars on the 5th day after harvest. I am monitoring the humidity and burping regularly (8-10x a day) Smoke Report: Creamy pepper with a cherry syrup aftertaste.🤣🤪 I've only smoked a bowl so haven't tested the ashes. But she is curing nice. A bit harsh yet I expect will go away after a couple more days. The high is perfect tho! Just what we wanted. It creeps up on u. But you will be confused by the time you finish the bowl. A very cerebral high(I chopped her whole trichomes were only 10% amber) that was great with good company. My girl andI are both veteran smokers, but this bud still made us both giggly(a rarity). It's a good social smoke and was fun to be on around others. The only downsides were it caused a mild confusion and paranoia. Like I would forget what I was talking about then worry ppl were laughing at me for it(they were though) 🤣🤣 I plan to report more feedback after it had cured a couple weeks. I'll invite others people's opinions as well. Right now I can definitely say the AK-47 Goxuak from Genehtik it an autoflower I would recommend to anyone, but especially new auto growers. I will be ordering more next season if they ate available. Genehtik has won me over. They genetics were extremely stable and safe. No herms no deficiencies nothing but greatness! 🌱🌱🌱 I had to share! I was looking on the breeder Instagram page( @Genehtik_chile) and they used a few of my pictures of Ashoka to represent their AK-47 Goxuak auto. I really feel honored by this. I have only been growing for 5 months and know I'm not good, but it's inspiring and motivating when the breeder of the strain give you an attaboy like this. Thanks Genehtik! Stay tuned for my next autoflower run!!

This plant has been going strong for sometime now. I’m starting this grow diary so soon because I need to keep track of how much longer I have until it’s ready for harvest. I already forgot what day I switched to bloom lol. But I’ll be posting weekly. With better pictures.

How do you control really huge fan leaves that are putting too much weight on lower leaves?

*Sorry for the shitty pics and video... my iPhone camera will not stop glitching and is having trouble focusing. Flushed about 4.5 liters of R/O water with 100ppm of Cal/Mag as a buffer to keep PH stable at 6.0 in my res. About 3 days later flushed again with 2 liters and continuing to repeat as medium drys out every other day. Plants are almost all faded to a nice purple. Trichomes are cloudy and will be chopping a couple of days into week 9. Smell is amazing as usual - pungent fruit punch gas. Looking forward to turning this room around and repeating. I'll try to start posting some other journals of different strains as well. Keep an eye out for Garanimals and Sundae Driver both by Cannarado Genetics.

Day 132 Tue PH 6.1 EC 0.4 DLI 12h PPFD Water 16-24cc

week 5 of veg flipped to 12/12 on 12/15 first week of flower comming up lets see how much these ladies strech to the light i have it maxed out in the tent so i hope i cam leave it full blast for flower.

Week 7 is begonnen en ze doet het goed. Bloemen beginnen voller te worden en haar kleuren zien er gezond uit. Ik heb ook wat onderste bladeren en takken weggeknipt. Pomp het op 💪🏽 Ik zal gedurende de week nog verse foto's updaten dus hou het in de gaten 🧐

30.04.2025 Day 58 Not much to report. Chemdawg still stretching. The other are fatten up and producing nice trichomes becoming visible to naked eye. Smell are strong. I can tell which one is tropicana cookies now base on the heavy citrus smell. So by process of elimination the other one has to be banana purple punch. I'm going to add final part solution today by mixing it with 5 liter of water and adding to reservoirs. All except Chemdawg.

Doubled her height this week! Now she's 13cm tall. She was repotted a day short of 3 weeks into a 20 litre airpot with fresh compost that has been flushed. I had concerns about her being rootbound.... In reality she was far from it, could have gone easily another week. On she goes!

Update: All plants are progressing well. I've been updating my diary for the two additional strains I started with. Despite some early mix-ups, two are now flourishing and ready for transplanting. I’ve buried the seedlings up to their first true leaves and will soon introduce root juice to assist with the transplant process. Cinderella Jack is heading for a 25-gallon pot, given its robust early growth and a longer growth cycle of up to 14-15 weeks. On the other hand, Auto Euforia and Critical Orange are showing slower development. Euforia is stubbornly pushing through with new growth despite a challenging start. To sum up, I'm managing six plants from four different strains: one Cinderella, one Skywalker, and a mix of Critical and Euforia. I’m confident I've identified at least one of each. Four plants are on target for a decent yield in their 3-7 gallon pots, while the other two will serve as trial plants. I expect the arrival of new nutrients by next week, but for Cinderella and Skywalker, I will continue their current feeding schedule for an extra week since they're slightly ahead of the rest in growth and still will be in 2nd week by week 3 mid. IDK how helpful is 127 LED E27 bulb but something is better than nothing. Will be shifting to indoor after fall so saving for a pretty decent setup now. More updates to come. Any tips or suggestions for a first-time grow in a greenhouse setup would be appreciated!

Both outdoor autos hit full mid-flower stride this week, stacking steadily and pushing out stronger aromas with each warm afternoon. Nice Cream continued swelling along every branch, its buds coated in a fresh frost of trichomes and exuding a creamy berry scent with faint rubber notes typical of the strain. The canopy stayed lush and evenly colored with no major fade or stress. Tiger #2 developed a dense, compact structure with heavy pistil coverage and a distinct sweet grape-candy aroma beginning to dominate. The smaller pot required slightly more frequent watering but kept pace in flower production. By the end of the week, trichomes were mostly clear with early cloudiness forming, signaling the start of late-flower swelling as both girls prepared for their final push.

Week 10 So last week I had CalMag problem, you can still see it on her leaves, she was really stunted - not drinking, yellow/brown spots on leaves. Right now it seems under control. What did I change? First of all I looked up, seems like CalMag is best absorbed with pH 6.5-7.2 or something, so one of the mistakes was pH too low - changed it to 6.5-6.8. I think it all started, when I experimented and gave too much nutrients it got “lock out”. That’s why I then flushed it 2 times with only water + calmag at pH 6.8-7 and from then on strictly giving nutrients only according to the table that’s given by Terra Aquatica. Seems like it picked up again, not seeing any new yellow/brown spots. The buds are huge, smell is great, I hope I can farm soon. Do you guys/gals have any tips? (On late flower/drying/curing)

Started this week off strong. Decided to switch out the extra Grow Big for extra Tiger Bloom since it’s a lower concentration on N and higher P. New growth is a good color and no tip burning. Raised the lights and turned them up to 100% for the rest of flower. Sour Kush is starting to stink up the tent! NCH is looking like she wants to finish soon, but buds haven’t fattened up and trichomes are still a mixture of clear/milky. Feed pH 6.2, EC 1.8. Water pH 6.3, EC 0.8.
