Another week down. The timer is fully switched back to 12/12. It took a week to get there but the ladies don’t seem to mind. The gruntz is still queen of the show, or the biggest. She seems to want to take over the whole tent. Amazing how big she is getting. The Bruce is a close second. Only a few inches shorter. The widows are there and are nice but they aren’t reaching for the stars like the gruntz. They are all beautiful, what can we say, we love all our ladies. There isn’t any smell off them yet, you can get a whiff rubbing the stalk, but not strong yet. We did a defoliation this week, but I don’t think it shows. We also took a few more clones off the bottom branches. The first try of the gruntz didn’t do so well. Try ,try again. Otherwise it’s been a good week. The Dutchess and I thank you for stopping by, if you see anything we can do better let us know. Otherwise spread some love and share some bud!

Starting into Week 5 Flower, week 11 total Mandarin Cookies definitely has an extremely strong orange citrus smell! Trichomes are coming in very nicely! MC’s are still ahead of the SK’s... however the SK on the left is catching up, with the one on the right having some budlets starting to form. 3 - Madarin Cookies are two in back and one in center; 2 - Silver Kush are two up front; 2 gallons water/nutes per 5 plants, alternating with plain water (just calmag, malassis, Ph. 6.4) every other day. Ph.6.4 (1.5 C.F.) Fox Farm Ocean Forest, mixed with (1.5 C.F.) garden soil, fills (5) 5 galllon fabric pots perfectly. (50/50 mix.) The new version of Spider Farmer SF-4000 is an awesome light, for anyone wondering. Can’t say enough good things about this light! Way less heat that any HPS/MH I’ve used. My big curiosity is about the final weight per watts used at finish for the Spider Farmer... UPDATE Week 5, Day 6: I did notice some heat stress on only a few of the taller branches (they were about 6” from the light). I did move the light a little further up about 4” to get some distance, and added an extra fan. Hope this helps the leaf curling! Question: have you ever driven past a house and can instantly tell they just harvested?? Ha! I just did that on my way home, and thought I was smelling my house from a long distance away.

114 Days left as of 11/6. Disclaimer: 56 days left to veg. Which ever plant is 3 ft or taller in 56 days will be flipped. In 1 week, I will be transplanting into 3 gallon containers that leaves 49 days. When there are 2 weeks left, I choose which ones go into the 5 gallon containers for flowering. After the transplant recovery, I do heavy defoliation and lollipopping. Wait 1 week to recover, and flip time…..Which just so happens to be: New Years!!! This week ( and past few days) has been on target. I am seeing growth everyday I open the tent. I don’t know why, but the first 2 weeks of my grows move super slow. Then in week 3-4, it’s like a rocket ship. 11-11 (51 days left) - kicking some ass now. 2 of the RuntZ might make it, the Hulk-Berry is def going to make it pretty close to 3 ft tall. Hulkberry has 21 days to be transplanted, RuntZ will be transplanted in 14 days.

Grow report week 1: The seedlings Hello dear growers and growerettes, it is time for an update on my grow. My plants have successfully passed the germination phase and have become healthy and lively seedlings. They are all between 5 and 10 cm tall and have exactly the same stages of development, as far as their leaves are concerned. The seedlings I have selected seven different strains from Zamnesia and Barneys Farm, which are all supposed to be very tasty and potent. I am curious how they will differ and which ones I will like best. The strains are: Bruce Banner 3 Banana Do-Si-Dos Gorilla Zkittlez Frosty Nightmare Pink Rozay Girl Scout Cookies The seedlings have all shown their first two cotyledons and their first two true leaves. They look healthy and strong and have a nice green color. They all have a similar size and shape, which indicates a good genetics and a uniform lighting. The care I planted the seedlings in the Lightmix from BioBizz, which is ideal for the germination phase. I moistened the seedlings with a spray bottle. I watered the seedlings once with Bio-Heaven, Root-Juice and Acti-Vera from BioBizz, which are supposed to support the soil, the roots and the plants. I used these products in a very low dosage, to not overfeed or burn the seedlings. I mixed them with pH-regulated water, to achieve the optimal pH value for the soil. I grew the seedlings in a closed room without a tent, which I lined with foil. I used two LED lamps from Lumatek, which each have a power of 300 watts. I set the lamps to a height of 50 centimeters above the seedlings, to not irradiate or burn them too much. The outlook I am very satisfied with the result of the first week. My seedlings have grown well and have shown no problems or deficiencies. I am looking forward to the next two weeks, where it will already be time for the first transplanting and the ladies will be able to taste the pre-fertilized soil for the first time. I will fertilize this run only a bit late, even if I will use osmosis water this time. The soil from BioBizz is really great and can carry the first weeks well on its own. I will start fertilizing about two weeks after the transplantation into the final pots. The next weeks I will introduce you to my water filter, which works much better than the current osmosis systems, without waste water, much faster, almost 1 to 1 flow and also much better for the environment. I am looking forward to your visits and the next weeks. I will continue to provide you with information and photos and let you participate in my grow. I wish you a nice day and a good grow! 😊

Very easy strain to grow. I grew the White Critical Express previous to this grow, I really liked it and wanted to try growing an Autoflower so I went for the Critical 2.0 and it was worth the grow.

Day 69 (March 6th) Just gave everyone their last watering. I’m going to harvest and wash everything tomorrow night on day 70. I‘m not going to do that whole 48 hours of darkness thing because I didn’t see a difference last time I did it. In fact, it made my plant under watered before drying which caused it to dry too fast. Slurricane and cheese will be washed with h2o2 and the rest will just be rinsed off in warm RO water and hung up. Before and after washing I’m going to go over each branch with a flashlight and make sure there is no dog hair or debris in or on the buds. I will be drying in my spare bathroom (that no one uses!) from hangers. Aiming to keep it around 60-62F and 50-60 RH. Hoping for that 10-12 day dry. I wanted to do a full plant hang but the tent got pretty dirty and I would feel more comfortable just cutting and rinsing everything off branch by branch. I’m going to try my best to keep the full plant intact. Got my humidifier hooked up and running RO water because with tap water it deposits calcium and lime all over the buds and walls. For air flow I’m just indirectly running a small usb fan. I’m not worried about air flow in the bathroom honestly. It stays nice and breezy down there anyway. Got the food grade peroxide and RO water to wash up the slurricane and cheese. Everything except for the cheese and garlic#1 is looking more than done. Trichomes all look pretty well done. Some of them have even burst open. Smells are all super ripe and mature too. Can’t wait to smell each individually in jars. Next week I will recap what went wrong and what I will do differently next time to keep it from happening again. (Day 70F) Just got everything chopped, washed and hanging. The vast majority of the PM was washed out but I can still see very small amounts. When they dry out I can shake the branches a bit to get the rest off. At very least it’s sterile now. There is no question I lost some potency while washing but the amount is negligible for a much cleaner product. I could see lots of dirt and other debris float to the surface of the water after being washed. And no those are not trichomes, those sink to the bottom. I could put that nasty water through a bubble bag and wouldn’t get all that much. Although it probably does remove a lot of the actual trichomes heads. I’ll have to check with the microscope. Everything is rigged up for a nice slow dry. Temp is sitting at 64 and RH is at a nice 60%.

7/14 4AM MONDAY MUST DEFOLIATE!!!!! I HAVE 4 INSTEAD OF 2...BECAUSE OF MY LITTLE ACCIDENT EARLY ON.. I WILL TAKE ONE OUT OF FLOWER AND RE-VEG TODAY!!! 7/15 420am They are great cutting I took last month or week is great. Amino and mb today!! 230pm spectacular results today heavy defoliation I removed branches. I prefer a four cola grow in small spaces. It’s just better for airflow better for the plants and they responded so great. It’s like they’re jumping straight up now. I’ve never seen this. They’re just so vibrant that means all the amino’s. Everything is working perfectly. 👍👍👍🚨🚨🚨🌿🌿🌿 7/16 320am 🌿🌿🌿🌿🎊🎊🎊🎊💥💥💥💥👍👍👍👍 7/18 3am NOTICING Elongated Sepals!!!! from Search Ai "Elongated sepals in plants refer to sepals that are longer than average, often appearing narrow and pointed. This characteristic can be a defining feature of certain plant species, such as the long-sepal beardtongue (Penstemon calycosus). The length and shape of sepals can vary significantly between species and even within the same plant, influencing the overall appearance and potentially the function of the flower. Elongated Sepals: More Details Definition: Sepals are leaf-like structures that form the outermost whorl of a flower, typically green and protecting the bud. Elongated sepals are simply those that are noticeably longer than the typical sepal length for a given plant or group of plants. Examples: Long-sepal beardtongue (Penstemon calycosus): This plant is named for its elongated sepals, which are a key characteristic. Berberis (Barberry): Some Berberis species exhibit elongated sepals, with variations in shape and length among different sepal types within the same flower. Significance: Identification: Sepal shape and length are important features used in plant identification and classification. Pollination: In some cases, elongated sepals might play a role in attracting pollinators or influencing how they interact with the flower. Protection: Sepals, even elongated ones, still function to protect the developing flower bud. Morphogenesis: Studies on Arabidopsis have shown that the shape of sepals, including the presence of elongated tips, can be influenced by mechanical feedback within the plant and the arrangement of microtubules."""🚨. THIS IS ON 2 OF THEM, SO I MAY HAVE 2 STRONGER THAN AVG. PLANTS. I WONDER IF THE MB, AMINOS ARE HELPING WITH THIS TOO??? 7/19 I GOT A MAGNETIC STIR THING. 150pm they didn’t need a lot of attention today. They do need to be trimmed back down to four colas. I’m running out of space they are very perfect and if I had more space the leafs would be bigger, but that’s limited by mine condition so there’s nothing I can do but they are absolutely incredible🎊👍👍

Bring on the flowers lol I think these ladies are finally done stretching so I introduced the co2 to the tent which is just brewers yeast and sugar mixed with warm water. LOL this tent gives me anxiety hahah I dont like the canopy like this but she is very healthy along with all the other ladies. The only thing I can think of is I did not have the bigger fan in this time. Wonder if that was the cause.

Probably looking at next week for a tentative flush and harvest. Some leaves starting to yellow from maturation, and pistils are getting to where they need to be, with some new white ones still being thrown up on both plants. The smell is strong and exquisite, pungent and sweet. Resin production also looks to be coming along nicely, covering leaves alongside frosty trichomes. Quite a few buds and whole branches have that snow covered look that can’t be beat. Won’t be able to hand water this week so leaving it to the auto waterer with reduced nute concentration. Cheers
