Start of week 5. It looks good to me, healthy but I thought it would stretch a little more. At the beginning of this adventure I had problems with fungus gnats, which I thought had already been resolved but it isn't, there aren't many of them and they aren't harming the plant, at least for now.

22.12 • Cal/mag deficit looks solved, plants look healthy 23.12 • last watering was 1L / Pot right after repoting on 20.12 , right now soil feels moist 25.12 • added a bio CO2 reactor (4x 1L bottles with 800ml water, some mashed tomato and 100g sugar, 10g moist yeast) 25.12 • rotated one of the lights to maximize illumination 26.12 • watered all plants with 1L 26.12 • CO2 ppm went up from +-400 to +-600 i hope for some more as i increased room temperature to 26°C, (yeast should react more due to increased temp.) 27.12 • sunburn as the lights were under 30cm distance 27.12 • CO2 wasn't working when i arrived this evening, perhaps i used too much yeast, perhaps it was too cold, perhapy i need bigger bottles...either way: i removed 3/4 from the bottles and refilled water/sugar/tomato

It’s so warm today! Of course I pulled all my plants out to spray with spinosad an feed/water. +++++++++++ I use a Hudson 2L sprayer. My partner used to work in the film industry and they found this brand of sprai gets the most thorough even coverage for makeup or whatever movie magic the use sprayers to create. It’s great. +++++++++++ I’m using some baking soda in water to combat some mild pmd, but it’s not bad. +++++++++++ These ICE BOMBS are troopers. They were definitely affected by the spider mites but hung in there three the various sprays which were hard on leaves even though I pulled them out and didn’t return them under the light until they dried. +++++++++++ Some fungal gnats come with the humidity so I topdressed with gnat nix. I don’t believe I overwater so I hope that’s the solution! I think I may wait another week or two and get things more stable before moving to flower.

This week was a real breeze! She's gaining a ton of weight on the bud sites and she's really growing nicely! She's starting to bud around the flowering sites and really finishing nicely. The formation of bracks and the formation of the buds is my favorite part because that's when you get to see somewhat of the final picture and the time the flower is most colorful! Now the second best part is harvesting the flower for smoking which will be occuring soon! The smell on these girls is very invigorating!! She's putting out a smell of a Apple Tart! You can smell the Apple Strudel right away when you open up the tent! I can't believe how big she's got and how beautiful they are coming along! I have to say that this is one of my favorites to grow and my favorite smelling strain! I also love the way the flowers are stacking on the colas!!! The frost on top of the cola leaves is insane! During the day I drop the humidity down to 45-50% and then at night I raise the humidity up to 60-65% which helps a ton with flower promotion during the flowering stage! Also, I raise the temperature during the day to 80° and at night I lower the temperature to 55°-60° which helps mimic the autumn temperatures that aids a ton in flower production in the flowering stage!!! I'll be stopping the two Apple Strudel Auto's from receiving any synthetic nutrients soon and flushing them once harvest is closer. It will be within the next two weeks or so! I do that because they'll stop taking nutrients in and start to self canabulize as a normal (ending) part of plant life. Then I'll give the two ladies plain pH balanced H20 for the next 2 weeks to flush any and all nutrients out of them. Then three days of darkness. Finally I'll chop them down to hang in my harvesting closet for 7-14 days with a dehumidifier on at 65% humidity. Then I'll place the flower into the trimmer and then into the grove bags for the last step in harvesting! The grove bags will keep the flower at 58-62% humidity. They also help keep the flower fresh longer, the Terpenes fresh, the Terpenes flavors, and from becoming moldy or dried out! I've used both these and the mason jars with boveda humidity packs but to me the grove bags are a must and a go to fail safe!!! All you do is hang your buds upside down at 60/60 or 65/60 for 7-10 days or until the braches snap and make that noise. Thanks and as always stay safe, stay high, and stay blessed!

Leider sind die Blattspitzen leicht verbrannt. Ich habe die Temperatur zu schnell erhöht 😒 Jetzt erstmal wieder auf 25°C Tagtemperatur und Alg a mic ins gießwasser, das sollte helfen 😌 Nach 2 Tagen hat sich die Pflanze sichtlich erholt 😍, sie sieht vitaler aus als je zuvor 😁 An Tag 33 zeigt die Shogun ihre Vorblüte 😙

The colours are popping! I’ve started to taper off the nutrients, I don’t typically “flush” the plants, but rather taper nutrients down until I have been able to give straight phd water for the last 3-4 feeds, making sure to water until I get about 5-10% runoff. I’ve tried both methods , the other being that I pour like 10 gallons of water through the plant, and I can’t tell the difference with my smoke, still clean and very tasty. I did a small defoliation at the end of the week, and added a support pole for the 1 lady in the far back, she was already starting to lean… just a couple of weeks to go !

Finally the harvest, I put them to dry on 70x70cm mesh; I gave them a first manicure, in about 10 days when they are dry I will give them a second manicure and proceed to cure them.👌

NOTES: This will be the last week of flowering. Just a couple more days of flushing with the Final Solution and I'll harvest all of them before the end of the week. Then I'll hang them to dry in the same growing tent and start the drying and defoliating process. Overall everything looks pretty good and no bigger problems have occurred. Day113 (6.2.) Today is 64th day of flowering and 13th day of flushing. Day114 (7.2.) After my lights turn off today at around midnight, I'll take the timer and lights off completely and leave the plants in total dark for a day or so before cutting them off. Day115 (8.2.) Day116 (9.2.) Finally! Cutting the plants down this afternoon and hanging them to dry. So, the overall grow time from seed to harvest was 116days with 67days of flowering, with total darkness for the last 36hours before harvest.

Was going to chop beginning of week 9, waiting is all.

Hi Growmies, She continues to develop nicely. The rootball continues to expand and nested itself right above the airstone. She is very thirsty, finishing a good 10l over the course of 5 days. I have opened my last atami rockzbastic tester and added a ml per liter. Seems like the buds start stretching around the colas now, so pretty much half time +- a week.

2nd October 2018 - Day 99 Burn slows down Third day of flush and she starts to thicken up. Day 100 - Sweet smell begins as she starts to mature. Day 103 - Begining to mture and dense. Day 104 - Water added and pH balanced 5.4 Day 105 - Last week of Flush

Deep Forest Autoflower is slowly making more progress. It looks like she is starting to switch to bulking. She is definitely taking her time. Every thing is looking good beside the slow speed.

en lineas generales bien el cultivo. la genetica es buena aunque no esta muy estabilizada. no es resistente a los hongos, la cola mas grande que estaba vencida sobre otras plantas tiene botritis ne la parte baja de cada cogollo con lo que se habran perdido facil 30g en seco.

Wow. She grew 26cm this week. Clearly likes her new 10 litre fabric pot. From what I've seen of the pots so far I like them. She's making loads of flower sites, also note the stem abuse I've administered this week 😂 I'm trying to stress the ol' girl out a bit. No idea if it working but its all data in the memory bank! 💪 EDIT: Light settings updated to reflect current tent lighting......

Jour 35 et tout roule ! Ma plante se développe à merveille, même si elle a décidé de stopper son élongation assez tôt, ce qui lui donne un aspect trapu et compact. Je suis plutôt satisfait de mon suivi, car j'ai réussi à éviter les erreurs du passé, comme le surdosage d'engrais. La terre est suffisamment riche en nutriments organiques pour subvenir à ses besoins. Hâte de voir comment elle va évoluer dans les prochaines semaines Jour 35 Engrais : max mais pas de NPK sauf phosphore et potassium a petite dose. Remarque : la plante ne s'est pas étirée suffisamment
