@MephistoGenetics, Hi all the happy people here in GrowDiaries. This is my second cultivation ever and it will be fun to try a bigger space than my closet grow. First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. The room is 2.14 meters by 1.7 meters and has a ceiling height of 2 meters. It provides a floor area of ​​3.6 square meters. I use a 54 Watt Lightwawe T5 for germination and 2 Pcs 400 Watt HPS lamps. I have a channel fan that replaces the room air about 40 times an hour to get a comfortable environment in the room, the air enters a fresh air intake from the outside. The air is purified through a carbon filter to then leave the room to the rest of the basement. Then I use that heat to heat the rest of the basement. I will use 10 pcs 15 liter Autopots to grow with and a 100 liter water tank that supplies the pots of water and nutrition. I will grow completely organically in soil and will watercure my buds to get the best possible medicine for me. But there are no cultivation rooms to be displayed here, so I continue with what is most important. Today I have put my seeds in paper towel and hope the seeds have germinated within a few days. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle will turn out. Illuminauto 21 - Sour Crinkle (Grape Crinkle x Sour Crack) Two of our fastest and frostiest varieties collide to make a sweet and sour delight! Expect super frosty, compact nugs that won't be a toke for novices. Destined to be a great strain for extraction work too! Plant size - Small - Medium Cycle time - 60-65 days from sprout Indica/Sativa - 80/20 Frost level - Extra Ridiculous https://www.mephistogenetics.com/product-page/illuminauto-21-sour-crinkle ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. 2017-08-21. Started to germinate the seed. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-23. Seed germinated and put in small pot in the humidity dome. ......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2017-08-27.

Hello to you who read my diary, I just want to say that I am pleased that you have chosen to check in with me and in my diary. I just want to say that I do this for myself and for a steady flow of my medicine. Everything you read and see in my diary is 100% honest and I will never distort or beautify anything here. I document my crops so that I can learn from my mistakes and also to look back at those different crops. I try to update with pictures every day and with text if something special has happened in the garden. This is my strainhunt for the best medicine and the beginning of my journey with cannabis and the cultivation of it. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-08-30. Cleaned the room this morning, just vacuuming and cleaning with chlorine solution. Im testing the fan to control temp and humidity, it works great. Added some pics and a movie.

They cut all my plant and take it. Bad friends. The yield and number of plant was higher. Unfortunately. I walk away with 500gr of 16 different strain. No trace of Super Lemon Haze

Spider mites have taken over my plant. I've been taking leaves off and lost bud sites because of this issue. I'm broke til tomorrow so I can't buy any products. At this point I'm thinking of just throwing the plant out and starting fresh. Yes it's has come along way but damn the spider mites are worse than bed bugs at this point

Day 49 - lookin good..... been bending her, trimmin abit, messin with the water solution..... ph and ppm have been all over the place..... lol she's been transitioning from grow to flower, and once she settles into night mode, the solution and growing should stabilize...... the new fan is cool... tents working properly now, neg pressure, drawing in air behind the floor fan, blown around the bottom, and cpu extractor fan pushing the air out the top of the tent, straight into the filter..... really nice way to run a little tent, low airflow........ keeps the impurities out of the buds..... the stalks have all tuffened up since trimmin, and pretty strong now.... should hold the full weight that's about to occur all over the place...... i've simplified the nutrients, they were gettin alittle confusing, so started doin nuets differently, .... so, just making my own nuet solutions, nothing fancy just base amount of normal elements .... should be a pretty good christmas ...... Day 51 - pics/vids... 👍😎

Happy New Everyone 😀 🙏🙏 I have now got all of my Photoperiod Girls under a Greenhouse. Its only an elcheapo from Ebay but I reinforced it with a heap of good old Gaffer tape and Zipties. I also ran guide ropes to the ground at the corners for Protection against heavy winds so hopefully it'll stay put. The Wifi Plant just keeps growing and growing and will soon need some type of branch support and I'm thinking of using some of those plant yo yo's. The white residue you can see on the leaves is Diatomaceous earth. I mixed some into the worm/mollasses tea just before I sprayed my plants with it. It acts as a bug deterrent and can't hurt the plant in any way. I also mix some into the worm tea that I feed straight to the soil as Diatomaceous Earth is a fantastic source of Silica which we all know is extremely beneficial to your Plants Health. As Far as my super soil is concerned , so far I have not needed to feed the plants any fertilisers as the soil is providing everything the plant needs. All ive been adding is biodynamic food for the soil itself to keep everything under the surface happy and well nourished. Once flowering begins next month I will need to add an organic Booster to the soil that will replace any depleted resources. Because I only feed water throughout the grow there is no need for any final flush I can simply Harvest when it's ready and dry/cure etc. Thankyou for reading this weeks update 2nd January 2020 👍

This is a grow I did last season that went really well. Unfortunately I don't have any veg pictures but its still a cool grow none the less. This is actually week 2 of flower. The plants were defoliated and lolipopped just before the flip and they STRETCHED. The tent was small so the scrog nets were more for support than anything. We had been going through an incredibly hot year here and it was pushing 95 degrees during the day all the way through to October. Luckily my lights run at night to save on electricity bills so I learned that high night time temps are not as detrimental. Hope you all enjoy. Adding Greenleaf Nutrients part A and B at 2.4 and 1.8 at this point.

Hi Guys:) Today is the update of the Sour Diesel 🌱. It looks very healthy and vital 👌. It has grown very nicely this week. Tomorrow there will be a few more pictures, because unfortunately I only came to the videos today. It's a hell of a lot of work that comes with growing and still working in everyday life 😅. What you don't do for your passion 😍 👍 I wish you all a good start into the new week, let it grow and stay healthy 🤗 🙏 🏻 🌱 🍀
