2/21/2023 - Day 50: Starting pre-bloom this week. Changed the light from 18/6 to 16/8. Also, started adding my bloom nutrients. Watered about 3.5 gallons and threw a little bit of everything in today. Started with Jay Plantspeaker Quillaja as a wetting agent, then added Rootwise Micro Complete, Enzyme Elixer, and Bio-Phos, BuildASoil Big 6, BuildABloom, Coconut Powder, Pure Protein Dry, Yah-Whey, Fermented Comfrey and Fermented Peach. Also top dressed with some BuildAFlower. 2/23/2023 - Day 52: not much to report. Plants are doing great, and seem to like the slightly cooler temps lately. Mainly just been tucking branches under the scrog screen and doing some super cropping in an attempt to keep my canopy even. 2/24/2023 - Day 53: gave the plants their weekly IPM, with a foliar spray at lights out of warm distilled water and BuildASoil EM-5. This is also to clean the leaves in preparation for the flip to flower next week. 2/26/2023 - Day 55: last day of veg. Officially flipping to flower tomorrow. The scrog screen is pretty full, other than the Frozen White Runtz, which is barely reaching the screen. Hoping it will catch up more during stretch. Also, plan to put a second layer of trellis on.

9 plants, 5 different strains, 3 different seed banks. So yeah, some background info.. I was going to go 6 girls in 15l pots at first for even distribution but fucked up the germination process sticking them seeds eagerly straight to soil and some didn't germinate and some took almost two weeks to push above soil so I popped a few more and here we are. Oldest ones are about 6-7weeks old and the rest are around 3-4weeks.. not sure about exact days since I wasn't planning on running a diary but then again figured it could be helpful IF(when) running into problems. Been mainlining/topping/defoliating/binding when necessary to keep them at pretty much the same height before flipping the switch. First photos shown here are from the last session of high stress training.. now we're just playing the waiting game for them to recover and then it's off to flowering time baby! This week is the first time dem bitches have been getting the full recommended dosage of Bio-Bizz nutrients I still have available (bought the "try-pack" for best bang for buck.) Gonna run out of root-juice and bio-heaven after next watering but think that's ay-ok since we're going to flowering anyways and in the last grows haven't really seen any notable difference using the insanely expensive bio-heaven. Fucked up topping few plants taking "wrong" nodes being way too drunk but we'll see how it goes. Also start of this week is the first day I hanged Viparspectra V900 to accompany Mars Hydro TSW-2000 which has done an amazing job so far!😍😍 Using only the blue grow spectrum on the V900 for the recovery since I know from experience the bloom mode runs hot as fuck and I still need to figure out how to improve the airflow in the cabin without ruining good nights sleep. Day 3: After last trimming session Girls are recovering quite nicely. Watered today and just like I suspected ran out of root-juice and bio-heaven, the runtier Sunset Sherbet didn't get to taste any of that sweet sweet nectar:( Everyone took about the same amount of water (2l) with pretty much no runoff so boy were they thirsty. SS runt was having a little bit of trouble drinking since the soil was way too dry and had become a bit hydrophobic but with patience took it all like a champ. Had to remove some of the bindings to avoid snapping the stems but looks like they're still at pretty even height. OG Kush has a trunk thicker than my thumb already although she's less than 20cm high! Ditched the tower fan from taking up too much space and replaced it with Garden Highpro oscillating clip-fan which is like a frigging hurricane even at lvl1! Lets see how it affects the temps which are quite high after adding the Viparspectra: topping at almost 30c during the last hours of day and I'm not even using the red blooming leds yet!😐 Still giving them the full 4ml/l of bio-grow every feeding but I'm thinking about cutting it back a bit since ran out of the snakeoils and not sure yet does that affect the uptake in a bad manner. Been also foliar feeding them w/ bio-grow every second day with 1-1.25ml/l to keep the humidity at around 60-70% all times and they seem to like it, leaves are nice dark green colored. Realized just how tightly packed the tent will be so I'm going to put them into flowering as soon as they have at least 2-3 healthy nodes per branch so guessing at around start of the next week. Probably going to defoliate most of the leaf mass day before flipping the switch.. might even get excited enough to try schwazzing 1-2 plants since I've never tried that technique before and I really need to promote some airflow. Day 4: Well that lasted long.. The fan cut its lead wires loose while oscillating because the cable clamps were set too tight straight out of the package, not giving it enough slack to turn full cycle.. Goddamn it.. Seems like an easy fix but got no time to start tinkering before going to work so I'll get it replaced by tomorrow and hope I wont get a dud made on mondays. Cranked up the inline duct fan a bit to compensate the loss of airflow and temps are staying in the 28C range but there's definitely some hotspots forming.. hopefully that leads to nothing too serious.

Again this strain was a pleasure to grow and very resistant to any changes or nutrients. I just wish I had more at the time but it was a feee seed and I only had one. Would be a decent harvest of some juicy tasty pineapple goodness 🍍💚

******************************************** Growdiaries Grow 22 ******************************************** Welcome to my 22nd grow on growdiaries. I'm going to be stricter on this grow as i have been a bit lax on the last few and let them get out of control. My plan is no more then 12 colas between the 2 plants. I'm going to have a shorter veg period to keep them at a reasonable height. I'm also going to try to keep them away from the sides of the tent more then I normally do. Because I may be going away shortly I'm going to start in the final pot because sods law I'll be away when they need potting up. I'm running 2 photoperiods again, they are both from the MSNL catalogue. Plant #1 Lemon cherry gelato will be on the left looking in the tent and #2 Zoap will be on the right. This diary is focusing on #1 Lemon cherry gelato Nutrients. Ecothrive Neutralise Shogun Katana roots Plagron Terra grow (3-1-2) Plagron Terra Bloom (2-2-4) Plagron green sensation (0-9-10) Plagron power buds (0-0-0) Equipment on Smart plugs. 1.

Radiator on= -20c Radiator off= +21c ******************************************** Germination/Prepwork. ******************************************** 📅1/10/24 Tuesday 📋 Prepared 12L fabric pots, filled with biobizz lightmix, then gave 2L water Ec=0.25 PH=7.0/6.7. Then 1L water with katana roots @5ml/L Ec=0.3 PH=6.3/6.3 No runoff. Placed pot into tent with no light on. 📅2/10/24 Wednesday 📋 Dropped the seed into 40ml of water with 5ml/L katana roots and 0.1ml/L neutralise at 5.00pm. 5.00pm turned light on @ 100w 80cm above the soil, Ppfd=197, 24hr DLI=17.0 10.00pm placed seed into moist paper towel. 📅3/10/24 Thursday 📋 7.30pm tap root breaking through the side of the shell so put the seed into 12L fabric pot, and placed in the tent under constant light. Can't recall ever having a tap root coming through the side before. 📅4/10/24 Friday 📋 9.00pm looks like movement. 📅5/10/24 Saturday 📋 9.00pm not broke ground properly but cotyledons are visible and looks stuck in part of the shell casing. Day 0 ******************************************** Germination summery. 📋 Didn't take that long for the Lemon cherry gelato to start breaking ground, she seems to be struggling to open up at the moment and is a funny yellow colour. I'll give her a few more days and see if I need a backup seed.. Back soon. Take it easy. ********************************************

Week 1 - 01/01 to 01/08 2021 HUGE THANKS TO @MARSHYDROLED and @VIPARSPECTRALED! New surge protectors/heavy duty timers/the good cords. The Red Poison by @Sweet_Seeds is right on track with the Dark Devil and Purple Lemonade from my other diaries. The LSD is a little behind but the genetics seems to keep it small if you get the wrong pheno. Will give it a week or so for it to really settle in with a root base before cleaning out my 5gal RootPouch pots from the last grow and getting them transferred into their final homes. I have all my seedlings under the P1500 from Vipar as my veg light for the first few weeks to a month. It's SO nice to not have a blurple anymore, the light is way better in my room and on the eyes. The new diodes had every single seedling grow more in 6 hours than it did in the first 7 days under the blurp LED. The Red Poison perked right up and threw another set of leaves in the first 6 hours under the new light just like the Dark Devil and Purple Lemonade. I noticed a bit of spotting on the Dark Devil in my other diary so I added some Hydrogen Peroxide to the spray bottle and it cleared up. All four have been getting constant spritzing from the spray bottle to keep humidity up. Excited to see how big i can get the autos under the new lights, will switch over from the Vipar to the Mars by end of week 2/mid week 3 once I transfer them and give them a day or so settle in. Thanks for stopping in! Throw down a like and/or follow so i can return the favour 🙌 -- Check out my Diary of the Year 2020 entry 🙏 https://growdiaries.com/diaries/54258-fastbuds-original-auto-sour-diesel-grow-journal-by-glazedgrow IG: @GlazedGrow CannaBuzz: @GlazedGrow

the waterworks come covered in some olie residue and i only did a few rinses. I think it kept the ph high for some time and i did a few more water cycles after complete setup. Everytime getting rit of more oil film. I like the bucketd rinsed the leca pepples in high ph tap water and again it took me some time to get ph down but this time no oil residue :) After a few days i felt i got ph under control so started the canna nutes schedule.

So far so good. The girls look strong, have been going well. Depending on how fast the keep growing I may have to switch to a 1 gal pot sooner than I thought.

Week 9 plant - vertical growth slowed down, packing on the buds quite nice. smelling great, quick counted 11 colas Week 8 plant - stretched quite a bit this past week. hairs everywhere, bud growth is starting to come in. quick counted 12 colas. Just added water to the res, ph went up a bit so dropped in 1ml of ph down to bring it back to 5.6, around 790-800 ppm. Did a light defoliation on the bottom of the plants, pulling off weak/dying older fan leaves mostly. Minor tucking of fan leaves on the top to expose more colas to the light. Adjusted the light to 18" from the tallest cola.

Definitely 5-6 degrees lower offsets flowering by nearly a week. Even though reduced plant count this time still a bit to crowdy for my taste. Next time will do less plants or trim more agressively. 3 main branches would be more than enough with 12 plants. Maybe 5 branches with 9 plants.

Muy buenas. Ya en la primera semana de vida de esta florcita, ha recibido su primer riego hoy mismo con estimulador de raíz (raziel de hype) veremos como cambia la próxima semana. Con una temperatura entre 23'5/24'5° encendido y 16° apagado con una humedad entre 60/80%. Con el led de 150w al 75% para poder aprovechar bien los lúmenes en sus diferentes fases. Está semana le tocará cambio de maceta por una de 3 litros ya que está en 250 centilitros. Por el momento marcha muy bien con buen color buena forma y asta se le puede ver la capa de glándulas que tiene sobre las hojas.

I am on so many learning curves right now with this grow and keeping diaries. It is a trip and I'm loving the journey. This Gorilla Glue is showing signs of the end of life and milky trichomes. I thought she'd be ready second but she's in the lead for harvest of the three. Can't wait to see what next week brings!

This was a sad little plant, if only the fucking birds did not eat the original plant. They are so bloody annoying. Over all plant did ok, just the runt size is a massive let down. Will just dry this and give it to a friend to smoke. This had a twin in terms of being a runt and that was with Rainbow Candy XL, and a few Dinamed seeds as well I found in the garden. @GanjaFarmerSeeds, If you like the images or videos I can send you raw files that have not been shrunk and contain no watermarks, if you feel I am in the top 3 of your BDOTY Contest that is :D

Good week. PPM issues last week were due to messing around with the watering schedule. I changed to a 3min fill and the extra water disturbed the clay pebbles, releasing sediment into the reservoir. I'm back to 1min fills. Buds are looking excellent. They're growing very close to the lamp but I don't have room to raise it anymore, I'm thinking I'll need to string them using the corners of the tent as anchors if they start burning. The dehumidifier was also set too high, so it's been a bit steamy in there for the last day. Reset it from 45% back down to 20% so it's running at full power day and night. When it's set at 45% the real RH raises to 80%, when it's set at 20% the RH sits at around 45%.
