Week 10: This will be the final update before Harvest: I will update post harvest after the dry and weigh. Day 64-66: Hmm these 4AM are a strange bunch lol. I seemed to have been wrong about 4AM#3 getting better in last week's update, after reviewing the pictures. After realizing this I decided to continue feeding the plants till the end albeit only Calmg and Boost(micro). I decided to give 4AM#3 a 125% dose of Calmg on Day 66. I was worried about root rot because even though she was a bigger plant she drank noticeably less water than the rest. I actually forgot to mention I have had a few fungus gnats during the grow starting at around day 35. I always let the plants completely dry out even until some leaves were really drooping from thirst, so I though I had them under control. I never noticed more than 1 or 2 at a time, which is also why I thought I had it out of control. Maybe they have something to do with 4AM#3's state, but I doubt it. Anyway, 4AM#1 and #2 are doing well. #1 has fully ripened with almost 95% cloudy trichomes, and some amber. #2 on the other hand could still use 7-10 days extra, but regretfully I cannot harvest then... #3 is at about the same stage as #2. Day 67-70: Sadly I noticed too late, but that extra strong dose of Calmg seemed to confirm my suspisions... 4AM#3 had a heavy calmg deficiency... It really is noticeably improving this time! Leaves are regaining some slight saturation! And she drank her water very quickly this time! So bummed about having to harvest this weekend... Day 73... Oh well next time I will be able to harvest more freely and at different times for each plant if needed. She still has a good bit of cloudy trichomes on her calyxes though, around 40-60%, and very very few ambers, but her sugar leaves are already full of them. As for 4AM#1, looking great! gona be the smallest buds but definately the most dank! 4#2's massive buds are still having trouble staying upright, but looking forward to those for sure! RED ALERT: Shiiiit... So as I was watering 4AM#3 on day 69, I noticed, what I'm pretty sure is, BUD ROT! Damn, I'll have a picture as part of this update. I had very bad experience with bud rot last fall(planted my autos too late in the summer, lost over half my plants and had to harvest early), but that was with 10C temps and 80%+ RH. I have FOUR fucking fans in this damn tent, and it's always over 20C! But I'll be honest, I knew if it was going to happen, it would be THAT part of the plant positioned closest to that oscillating fan I have on the peace of wood... The bud closest to it(in the corner) is in it's blind spot, doesn't get direct breeze on it. And that's the bud, and the ONLY bud that seems to have been affected. Strangely though, this bud rot feels different to the touch than the one I had last summer. Very dry, and like I said, very isolated to that ONE little part. I cut it out and have the rest of the bud drying as a tester in my room. And my entire room STINKS. I seemed to have been wrong about that last week also; The 4AM smells so much stronger than the White Cracks. See you after the Harvest!! ;) It's been awesome and a fun learning experience!

5/25 this plant is starting to gain some vigor finally. Has some real nice healthy color and I'm happy with where she is and/or where she will go once flowering commences. I was worried that she wasn't going to grow into much of anything. This seedling has been fighting since day 5/26 top dressed. She's taking off Also her very main top, keeps branching off weird, it's like 3 at a node almost. Its been having weird mutations like parts of leaves missing and odd shaping of

ce jour 27:11:2021 j'ai pratiqué au peut de défoliation mais j'ai malheureusement cassé une branche vue le stade de développement je pense tenté la bouture mais j'ai des doute car bien abimé 👍Description White Widow Automatic Female Cannabis Seeds Hybrid. (Brazilian Sativa x South Indian) x NL Special x Afghan Lowryder. Fast, robust and very frosty. Earthy, hash-like aroma and taste. By crossbreeding our original White Widow with NL Special and Afghan Lowryder, we created White Widow Automatic. This autoflowering variety has a short life cycle and provides above average yields that are covered in frost. Its NL Special heritage also ensures that this strain is well prepared for growing outdoors in colder climates. As with our other autoflowering strains White Widow Automatic is short and bushy and grows one main cola with a couple of side branches. From about half way through flowering she will be covered in frost, making sure that even the smaller buds are potent. This strain can go from seed to harvest in 9 weeks, but will usually take around 11. Outdoors White Widow Auto can reach a height of around 150 cm and yield up to 85 grams per plant. Optimal indoor yields were obtained under a 18/6 light cycle. She has an earthy, hash-like incense aroma and taste. This hybrid variety has a strong indica effect and provides a potent, couch-locking body stone. Medicinally, White Widow Automatic is highly effective against stress and depression and chronic pain. https://marshydro.eu/products/100x100x180cm-grow-tent/ https://marshydro.eu/collections/ts-series/products/ts-1000/

The veg cycle was shorter than i usually like to have a plant go through, due to time restrictions for the Bubba Cheesecake Diary grow-off, but it still did fantastic in my mind! Three months in veg under high-octane light and 11 1/2 weeks in flower have let this plant turn into a dreadlocked group of nugs. Three main colas, but lots of burnable flower to enjoy once the dry is finished. I did a light LST with a decent amount of defoliation throughout the plant's life. I like to open up the middle area of the plant and let as much light as possible hit as many branch and potential flower nodes as possible. This way, i don't need to lollipop as many branches and as much foliage as i would if i didn't do this. Plus, the candelabra look is b-e-a-Utiful, in my opinion. Light intensity through veg ranged from 40% as a fresh seedling to around 55% the week before i put it into the bloom room. Once it was in the bloom room, the intensity was set at 50% for the first couple weeks to allow for a decent stretch. After that, i think i recorded the light intensity in my diary notes for each week. But, just in case i didn't, I bumped up the intensity by a few percent every 3 days until i hit 100%. Once i got to MAXIMUM POWER, i left it there until harvest. Water was natural well water that tests out at 7 pH. I always added BuildABloom to the water, never the soil, when i used it. Same with Dr. Earth's 1-2-1 tea concentrate. Other than those instances, it was just straight water that i was giving to the plant. Grow rooms are both about 4'x8'. Lights are still budget lights: -IMVSincere BC100(x3) for veg (Link: https://www.amazon.com/IMVSINCERE-Spectrum-High-Performance-Greenhouse-Hydroponic/dp/B095C2DLH5/ref=asc_df_B095C2DLH5/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=563646983247&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=540375076791862758&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005737&hvtargid=pla-1602626531718&psc=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw__ihBhADEiwAXEazJgD4ugog9JhrBxNShAvyxL7mk9FZTcqD8voe6_dtA20JctuC5Q9qvBoCD7oQAvD_BwE ) Abriselux A1500(x2) for flower (Link: https://www.amazon.com/Abriselux-Dimmable-Coverage-Upgraded-Hydroponic/dp/B08V1FM9V2/ref=asc_df_B08V1FM9V2/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=507792239689&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17954986133471144655&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9005737&hvtargid=pla-1213853152075&psc=1 ) All in all, this was one of the most enjoyable cultivars I've grown inside since i started indoor grows in September 2022. I'm definitely going to try and get more seeds off of my brother, as well as buy some more seeds to pheno-hunt through! Thank you, @Seedsman , for running this contest. I would have never tried this cultivar out if it wasn't for you giving me a little incentive!

This baby is going good, thricoms production and smell on point👌 The main cola is growing very big, I'm so hyped about it 😝 Some of the leaves are becoming yellow and i saw some signs od deficiency of some sort but I'm not worried because she is near the harvest, I think another 2 weeks and I'll chop it: Sorry for the low quality of the photos, next time I'm gonna use a better camera.

It was finally time to harvest her, what good times we had with her. Amazed with how beautiful this plant is, how easy to manage and train and how rewarding Orange Hill Special is. So we said our thanks and goodbye, thanked her for all the joy she gave while growing her. I realize more and more how I love growing them even more than the end-product. It takes my mind of all going on for a while, in my miniature jungle world in the attic. Im sure all of you just sometimes sit there and watch them, in wonder, dreaming away with a good buzz on, watching them wave in the wind of the fans. So with a heavy hart I apologize, play them their last music, sit with them and feel them and smell them, watch the glistening of the cristals. In the end we had 209 gram dried Orange Hill Special, I will know the total of the grow, in a few days, since the final big whopper still has to dry: my XtraKush, be sure to check the harvest of that one *in couple of days) and see a one-dollar seed outperform two 10 dollar seeds. I probably go over 500 grams for the total grow, which would be 1.6 grams per watt. Big success! Consider an SP-3000 for your next light, you won't be disappointed! Check www.mars-hydro.com for the latest discounts! Thank you @MarsHydroLED for letting us try out your light, it made this successful grow possible! Greetings and all the best! Thank you to our friends here, our followers and the whole Growing Diaries community for just being there. Big Hug, Sunshine and BioBuds

Day 36. Morning. Girls are stretching, some are above 50 cm, others still can't beat even 20. Will regroup pots a bit to expose smallest girls. Pure phed water. No hermie signs and thats good ;)) All girls very healthy, thinking to give silica next watering. Day 40. What an Idiot I am ;)))))) Girls just blasted away. All my hopes for one huge cola - gone. Girls just grow, they are bushy, but leaves cover each other and sweat. I decided to do defoliation on day 15-18 of flower, but ... All girls are different !!! Some just building preflowers, some are on day 10 of flower, some still in veg !!! If you check any my diary, 2-3 days is max and all leaves are regrowing, so i can't defoliate in rounds by maturity, neighbours will cover defoliated one. And i can't do all in one go, some will be totally in wrong day for such stress. Time for new strategy ... Just i don't know which, what and when ;)))) Day 41. Job done. Slaughtered them last night. Looks ok at the end of day, let's see how many hermie i woke up ;))))

The plants look very healthy and they have big and dense buds , ill havr to wait anothe week or cuple days until harvest even tho it may be a bit soon for it. One of the plants has started to root its top head of the buds , but i soupose its because of the temp . The air is getting dry cuz of the hot weather even tho im using 250w-400w lights on them . Trichromes look preety good and the bud is frosty . Some of the plants are not ready yet for some reason so i think i have to give them a bit more time

Week 9 flower : Sunset sherbet : about 8 1/2 weeks I finally harvested, once I actually cut it out the net I realised there was so much yellow unfinished bud as it was way to compact in the tent . So I chopped all the heads off and put it back in the tent gonna leave it a week or 2 more just to see if I can get it to mature a bit . This plant was a clone and from day 1 it was not healthy but was told it was a super strain . I managed to get it growing but was always slow and very thin stalks . But I can tell it’s going to be a special smoke , the buds are rock solid and frosty . I have had to make a little cardboard dry box as the tent is still in use . They will be dried for about a week then put in jars to cure . I will report back with a final weight and smoke . Blue cheese : I have 3 blue cheese plants 2 in 12litre pots and 1 in a 3l pot . There is 2 phenos one is very blue and smelling more blueberry and other 2 more green Cheese looking . The blue pheno was in a 12l pot I took it out the tent and left in dark for 48hrs this was done about 9 weeks of flower . Once I actually took this out the net I couldn’t believe how big the buds were , it smells so nice and buds look very blue and frosty . This will also be hanged in a box and dried for 7-10 days and then cured . Will report back with final weight and smoke report The greener more cheese looking pheno is in a 12l pot is by far the biggest the buds are massive , this is still not ready and looks like it needs another week or 2 . I will keep flushing it till then and do same process as above apart from I will dry this in the tent The smallest plant that’s in a 3l pot is still not ready maybe another 3-7 days but will probably just leave it till the other one above is ready . I shouldn’t have really put this one in the tent I should have left the extra space for the others but still looks nice and some big buds . Overall I am amazed with the mars hydro lights I have 2x 1000ts and they have done better then when I used hps but that was some years ago . No one can tell me mars are not good light , I have literally taken day by day photos and u can see the results .

Hey Leute, Chup Chup die kleine Lokomotive ist stark am Dampfen!!! Die Woche 7 ist im vollem Gange und die Buds werden immer größer ^^ Ich konnte noch schnell genug reagieren, habe mich jetzt bei einem ppm von 1200 eingependelt. Die Hitze von der Lampe ist immens, habe sie jetzt auf 75% dauerhaft reduziert, und die Höhe eingestellt, ca 1200 ppfd im ganzen Zelt. Die Lemon Skunk (Red No. 2) rechts hinten macht mir etwas Sorgen aber jetzt ist es auch nicht mehr so lange bis zur Ernte!!! Ich bin mal gespannt ob das mit dem Roten Licht wirklich eine Wirkung hat und ich bessere Buds und früher ernten kann. Sie haben immer noch immensen Durst alle 4 Tage 5 Liter pH und Dünger Wasser. Ich hoffe es gefällt euch wie sie aussehen, schade, dass man den Duft nicht durch Handy schicken kann!!! Liebe Grüße Fićo!
