Hey yall! Thanks for tuning in this week. Had a great look under the microscope of my soil, I just ordered a camera for my scope so next week look forward to seeing and identifying some beneficial microbiology! Another round of compost tea, I added Kiwi 🥝 😋 Fermented Juice, to this round of tea. Also adding food for the bacteria (simple sugars) and for the fungi (complex carbs). I suggest using diverse food for increased biodiversity. The mycelium network is really established at this point. Which is why I highly recommend to keep reusing your soil, and the larger the pot size the better. I am in 10 gallons for now. Once I move into our house will be into living beds, 100 gallon + If you can't be in a bed, use 25 gallon. You will benefit in time. So at this point only using inputs I have made from organically grown plants, mostly grown in house. Anything else was wildcrafted, sustainably, so if I take something from nature I am replacing it with something else. Balance in all things. Added the fruit for pushing the flowers. Pistol hairs are growing. This strain is a sativa dominant, and thus my flowers are not as compact and "looser" than indica dominant strains I have always grown. Review on this sativa dominant cultivar is: harder to grow than most strains, longer flowering time is also a pain while increasing my costs with more days with the lights on. Getting COAs on the finished flowers and I will post on here, I am hoping for higher levels of THCv, let's get into the rare cannabinoids and higher terpenes!

Lights: Main: 8 397w, UVA 26w (So AC sending me out replacement for UVA so should have all 48w this time, running 26 until they arrive) Feed Listed above then EC/PH adjusted Controller Ports: #1 Main lights #2 Exhaust #3 Intake #4 UVA D14 temps still high, but still going strong, supposed to be a little cooler this week 🤞 D15 Setup drainage and pump sys Girls are on a roll. I want to be sure so it's been running way too hot and way too humid and I took one of the plants out yesterday to debate whether to call it this way it'll just be easier on the environment so I could get my control back. I was pruning and checking it out, to debate whether I should just get rid of it, I was training it and I snapped the main stem right down the top seam lol. So that made the decision to cull it very easy lol. The plant was completely healthy and a great plan. It was just the smallest one and the only reason I was even debating it is because it was getting too hard to keep the environment dialed in where I needed it, shit happens, she was going strong until I ripped her in half lol. They're all doing amazing. Set up the first trellis, D16 Holy shit 1 day in trellis this one girl just won't be held back, after I do some maintenance/pruning I'll snap some new pics. D17 These girls are on 🔥 LETS GO ezzjaybruh

Hello... fin de semaine 13, floraison 7. Le moment de la récolte est imminent pour la critical+2.0, je pense que d’ici 2 ou 3 jours ce sera bon... Et pour la gorilla Cbd, peu être une petite semaine de plus. Je surveille de près les trichromes. Juste avant la récolte, je vais laisser 24/48h les plantes dans le noir. Le flushing est fait aussi, j’ai commencé déjà la semaine dernière, et aussi hier. J’ai rincer la terre des pots de 10L avec environ 30L d’eau au pH 6.2~. J’ai effectué cette opération 2 fois. Voilà pour cette presque dernière semaine... 😉 Happy grow...😎

This one is dedicated to Velvet Moon exclusively. The other diary is for both strains, that's because I only have one more strain and it's an auto, so I'm not going to make an exclusive diary for her.

Yo. A new week has started. Day 50, These girls have a great week. Packing on some weight and starting to stack nicely. Day 53, lights gone to 100% really happy with how these ladies are doing. Really starting to stack up and put some weight on. Feeding these girls quite heavy now watering 1ltr every other day. ✌️ Day 55, moving on slowly. Cold night time temps slowing things down a little I think. The smell is getting stronger and stronger. Messed the days weeks and months uo again 🤦‍♂️ Day 57, keeping week 8 open to catch up so my diary’s correct. Very happy with these girls. Day 58, fed and watered last night. Night time temps are getting really low now and RH is creeping up so keeping a close eye on things. The smell is so sweet. Buds forming nicely ✌️ Once again thank you to all my fellow growers for the love and support received I really do appreciate each and every one of you 🙏🏻 A link to Medusa F1 below I believe everyone should have a go at this one. And a massive thanks to James @ RQS for giving me the opportunity to grow out the F1 strains. ✌️👊🏻 ⭐️⭐️⭐️https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/uk/f1-hybrid-cannabis-seeds/621-medusa-f1.html⭐️⭐️⭐️

Looking forward to this lady developing, she has given some more height this week after a slow start, FIMed the top on this one to see how she goes, transplanted her to a 12ltr pot as i'm short on space, hopefully this way i can control the size of her a little. Soil mix: BioBizz All Mix, Mycos, Bat Guano

64 days after i planted her seed directly in a pot outside 😱the reaper came, i hung her upside down for 6days then cut her &put her on a net to dry some more While cutting I found some little catterpillars about 5 guess that were the eggs that I found on some of the plants last week.☺️ After a few days drying on the net i weighed it:53,6gr The taste is great I'm very happy with the result catterpillars included☺️

Smells are getting progressively stronger, smelling like tropical punch still. Showing signs of purple, possible with the dropping temperature at night with the AC. They are cover with trichomes and looking lovely!

Day71. ( 30 days in flower ) Going to PK 13/14. Feeding full Chart Canna Coco with boost and terpinator. Hit 1260 PPM and 1430 PPM with the PK 13/14. The plan is to PK for 6-9 days ( 3 or 4 feedings ). Had issues with lights so crossing fingers that they don’t hermie. 🤞 Everything else is good from Humidity at 40-45% to tempature between 20 C at night and 28 C day. Putting alot of work in theese 8 beautiful girls and hoping it pays off. 🚀 Day 72. Everything looking good, buds under the BlackDog are getting alot fatter than the ones under my ViparSpectras. This Grow light is really something!!! Did some defoliation to make room for light to reach the buds. Day 73. Fed them 2nd feeding of PK 13/14 at 1400 PPM. ( 15-20% runoff ). Things are looking good. Some of them have more brown pistils than others and will be harvested before. No signs of nutrient burn or hermies. 🚀 Day 74. Everything looking good , starting to smell real strong. Did alot of defoliation, probably the last I will be doing on theese girls. 💯🚀 Going to have to start using string and tie up the Colas so they don't get too heavy and snap. Day 75. Buds are getting bigger and bigger day by day. 💣💯 Day 76. Smell is getting stronger and stronger. I have one seedsman Jack Herrer finishing early. She’s showing alot of brown pistils and drippy trichomes. No amber trichomes yet. She really stinks and is going to be A small yield of strong smelling frosty buds. I give her about 10 more days before i flush her for a week and harvest her. I fed them their 3rd Pk 13/14 dose at 1350 PPM ( 4 L - 4.5 L each to get 400-700 ML runoff ). Day 77. Everything looking good. Little tiny Minor nutrient burn at the tips of some leaves on 3 of the 8 plants. Nothing harmful, I’m still going to feed them one more PK 13/14 feeding.

Hey now, I hope everyone is having a great week and staying safe. It was a nice week for the Glueberry OG as she grew to her 7th node on day 26 and I just popped off number 7 gently so she will end up with 10 main chutes from 5 nodes as i also removed the bottom node which typically is larfy popcorn buds. If she had not reached node number 7 by day 28ish I would have just topped her above the 5th node as I have had great yields that way as well. Dutch Passion says she takes 11-12 weeks but autos usually start preflowering/flowering between days 28-35 depending on strain so I try to complete all toppings by day 28 or so with autos because if you top them after they start to flower they will suffer. I have topped above the 3rd (for mainlines and mainifolds) as well as the 4th, 5th, and 6th with great results from each. As a general rule, the longer the autoflower is expected to take, the higher up I top her as she will have more time for more colas to develop. Some people think that topping stunts an autoflower, however as long as you allow her to grow a nice ball of roots and she is healthy, it only stunts mine for about 30-45 seconds. Glueberry OG Auto is absolutely loving this Medic Grow light so far, and I am super impressed with how tight she is keeping the nodes. I am running on 60% power in the V1 or vegetative blue stage. I will start working the UV/IR Spectrum into the mix as soon as my 2 seedlings go into coco coir and can handle some more light. The Glueberry OG Auto is currently 6 inches tall and was topped above her 6th node, and since the first node doesn't start until 2.5 inches from the coco, that is a tight group! I will start LST tomorrow on the two top mains, as it has only been 48 hours since topping and they are growing fast. I see alot of growers tie down their entire plant to the ground for LST and that is ok but not beneficial imo. My goal is to keep her nodes tight, and then just LST the mains from the uppermost nodes, as to allow the lower nodes to catch up., while I typically clip the bottom most node as she typically only produces larfy popcorn buds. These are certainly usable for bubble hash/edibles/cannasugar etc. but they do drain some energy from your top shelf colas. The goal of LST should be an even canopy as to minimize apical dominance. This will allow the plant to better utilize the existing light and limit wasted light that converts to heat. Tying a plant down restricts the airflow from the plant and impedes the growth of the lower mains. LST does not require pinning a plant down to the ground with staples, and although a cannabis plant will bounce back from this, it certainly will not reach its full potential. As far as nutrients go, I feed veg nutrients until my auto is almost done stretching then I transition to full flower nutes over about a 6 day period. The only exception is if my plant is growing out of control and I am unable to slow it down through topping, LST, super-cropping, etc. At this point I would make the switch to flower nutes slightly sooner. So she will be feeding on silica, cal mag, and veg nutes for at least a few more weeks here and just some LST. Thanks everyone for stopping by and checking out my little grow, I hope everyone stays well, be safe and Blaze On! 💪💪💪 Website: https://medicgrow.com/ https://growdiaries.com/grower/medicgrowled

Been on 12/12 for a week and this girl is getting stretchy. Starting to look like preflower. Did some defoliation and spread her branches out a little. I moved her to the middle of the back row because I am trying to pair similar sized plants up for even light height. Nutrients per gallon .5 tsp maxigro .25 tsp maxibloom .25 tsp armor si .5 tsp calimagic .1 tsp 90/10 humic/fulvic acid Ph to 6.0 Pumping nutrients 24 hours

Plant 2 harvested 8.5 weeks from seed to harvest Plant 1 harvested 9 weeks from seed to harvest These ones swelled up and grew at lightning speed compared to the rest... wish that third seed had germinated now ;) I'm putting Ripper Seeds autos up in the top spot for now, 100% - this and Zombie Kush auto grow last year have been huge yields and really fast to grow. They just have these immense top colas (for those who prefer to leave the plant untouched - I don't do anything to my plants, no defoliation, LST, etc. Mostly because I'm really lazy when it comes to these things.
