Germination 07/09/2022 Hi to all the old and new growers out there. Spring has barely started but I'm so AMPED to start again. My first grow attempt was a disaster. I started to early for the season. I wasted some good seeds and those Blasted 🐌 🐌 snails messed up everything. Got up started again and took it as a learning curve. I had 1 seed left from the previous attempt and this had to be the golden ticket. The first important thing I learned was getting to the correct pH. Used a 1 liter jug not knowing that the pH down was very concentrated substance. Added 1ml of pH down to tap water with a base of 8.5+ pH and brought it down all the way to less than 4.5 pH. I probably tried like 5 times and realized that a single drop made a difference of about 2 pH. I got the feel of it and had to source a better water supply. I had the option of using tap water but didn't have the time to do a 24 hour airstone run ever time I wanted to water the plants. The local water supply shop was a better option. I got a consistent 6 pH and the price was decent. The Snail 🐌 Problem... I have a plan for those F**kers. We have 2 very nice hydroponic shops in my city.

They just keep stretching! The "smaller" plant added 10" of vertical growth this week alone. Busy week structurally as I had to move lights and wires to adjust for this change in size. Excellent bud growth on one, the now taller girl just showing bud sites formation.

best cannabis I ever grew and smoked. Others agree. This is a cup winner I would win with no competition. 3 months harvested, 90% consumed. Will run more genetics and future cross, backcross. Feels like energy drinks, positive, 100% youre high and lit, extreme ripped. Smell is slight citrus, this is very sweet tasting and smelling because of my methods of growing. Oozing sticky like an industrial adhesive. Daytime smoke, ripped no couchlock. For heavy daily smoker this is above your level of comprehension, good luck finishing 0.5g session. 10/10 all categories. 4 months after harvest video macro, this is what 40% looks like

She is growing at a tremendous pace... I don't think I will need to train her.

And it looks like they didn't mind that much going to the hairdresser as they keeps on drinking the same and evolving at the same pass. They are all becoming beautiful beast ladies and im loving them all in diferent ways , so far the mor advanced one is the somango followed by the water melon followed by the no idea what it is seed and in the end e have bruce banned, im loving t he fact that they all started same time and that they all are going to finished different, this means i will be trying me second harvest plant smoking my pervious one 😝 . They are all drinking using the autopot system but the no idea what seed is not so im Daly giving her 2,5 liters from the autopot reservoir ,it sucks but its ok at the same time hehe eit is what it is and im not thinking on leaving anywhere, so i can easy do that every single day hehehe kind a lovit any way but dont tell anyone, its our little secret 🤫 😆💚🙏🙏🙏 As always thank you all for reading and checking out my diaries, im humbled by it all, much love to you all 💚💚💚🙏🙏🙏💚💚💚🙏 Thank you APTUSHOLLAND for having faith in my love for growing and for always being there wen my gardens need 🙏🙏🙏 Genetics : - watermelon candy - Zamnezia Seeds https://www.zamnesia.com/ -Somango Glue - Advanced seeds https://advancedseeds.com/web/ - ?- buddah Seeds - Bruce Banner - Fast Buds https://2fast4buds.com/ Grow tent - 4x8, but using 4x4 for this Auto Test Ligth - LUMATEK ZEUS 465 COMPACT PRO Food - HAPTUS HOLLAND Filter - vanguard hydroponics Falcon Filters Extraction - vanguard hydroponics 560 m3h control - Trolmaster All i grow is medicine for myself, for me and for my best friend with is me 😆 nothing to sell, so don’t even ask 😅💚💚💚 All info and full product details can be find in can find @ https://aptus-holland.com/ https://autopot.co.uk/ https://lumatek-lighting.com/ #aptus #aptusplantteck #aptusgang #aptusfamily #aptustrueplantscience #inbalancewithnature #trueplantscience #growerslove With true love comes happiness 💚🙏 Always believe in your self and always do things expecting nothing in return and with an open heart , be a giver and the universe will give back to you in ways you could not even imagine so 💚💚💚 More info and updates @ https://growdiaries.com/grower/dogdoctor https://instagram.com/dogdoctorofficial https://youtube.com/channel/UCR7ta4DKLFMg2xxTMr2cpIg 💚💚💚Growers love to you all 💚💚💚

The stretch continues...It appears buds are setting and forming up quite nicely. I couldn't take watching the side with the vivosun bulb keep lagging behind more and more from the hortilux side, so I switched the bulb out. And within 3 days the jump in plant size was huge. The aroma is getting slightly stronger by the day. This is the last week with the early bud booster in the system. I have been putting the next weeks nutrient solution in my top off tank to steer the nutrients. It seems to work great!

12/15 I don't know about this plant... I think the transplant was just too much stress and it's done. I knew it was a long shot with an auto flower. I'm going to give it 2, 3 more days. If I don't see a major improvement, I'm pulling it. It looks like the other one I started with this one is lagging too. I had an accident with another plant fallling over on it. Anyway, I went all the way on the drip irrigation system. Ended up installing a main line and then I ran a 1/4 line off the 1/2 main line that runs down the center of the tent. I just couldn't leave it alone and ended up building a pretty decent system. If I add 6 or 8 emitters then I'll upgrade the pump. 80gph won't be strong enough for 8 lines. So it's a bit more involved than living soil, and I enjoy that, as long as I have time. One plant doesn't take a lot. Just check pH 2x a day and adjust if needed. It will swing about 3 points every 12 hours. So I set it to 5.7 or 5.8 and when I get home at night it's at 6.0 or 6.1. It is way more forgiving than dwc and if the pH were to drift bad, then I have plenty of time. It's only got to be right 6 times during the day. 3 days.. I didn't want to kill her, but I'm not going to spend 3 months growing a joint either. 12/16 Looks like she's getting stronger. Took a video of the drip system in action. I tweaked it and added 2 inline drippers so they each have half the cup. They seem to drip pretty even in my other tests. I'm watching close . I hope she takes off so I don't have to start over. Color looks good. My pH was lower than I thought. By .4 points. So I fixed that and the plant seems to have taken notice. Hell the pH was probably just gotten to where it was in range. I got so used to the pen being accurate I totally forgot to double check it. It's right now. 12/18 Changed the res and upped the nutrients to 0.9 from 0.6. She is growing very slowly. I am about to pull it and make room for some clones in another tent. I found a breeder with some genetics I am really salivating for and I may just jerk it out. That being said; I think the increase in nutes has helped the color if nothing else. But with each day I'm more sure she is stunted. 12/20 She is picking up. Color is darkening up and size is getting within range. But she will be smaller in the cup. The latest pics are showing no issues yet. I think I can give her even more. Next res change I think we'll go to 1.0 or 1.1. just playing it by ear. Need to check the runoff and make sure it's not building up any salts. Haven't been top concerned yet because we get a little runoff and I believe I am getting the entire substrate moist. Watching... Waiting...

Last week 🤞 Water only 💦

BlackBerry og is finishing up well fading out nice colas are heavy and frosty smell is sweet og she's going to pack some nice weight hoping for some colour but don't look like that yet but could change more into fade she's on just water will give 1g of bactrex to help her along use up what's in the soil if anything thanks for reading happy growing guys

What to say about this week? For starters LST was started this week. Initially I used garden ties but soon after replaced them with 6” garden staples . 2 of the 6 girls began throwing pistals resulting from the LST starting around day 15 YIKES 😬. The Zkittlez & the Runtz both from (Expert Seeds ) began giving the 5x5 its first smells . The LST so far has been a pleasure no ooosy daisies so far & the girls are showing what they are made of . The secondary shoots have great potential to form a nice round bush that I can train out into an even-as-possible canopy . Today is day 21 & day 20 for this bunch . They are only using Gaia Green dry amendments for feedings but I decided to take some advice given to another grower & supplement my girls with some compost tea . NO I DONT THINK THEY NEED ANYTHING ADDITIONALLY IM REALLY HAPPY SO FAR WITH MY NUTES bbbbuuuuuttttttt in the short chance that my ladies may take a liking to an occasional tea & reward my pampering with large , long , frosty, stacked cola’s . . Thennnn I’m supplementing , I consider this all “4-play” for my ladies Ik a giver 🤷‍♀️😭 My only concerns are racing against this clock to get as much size & solid structure before flowering sets in I’ve really got my heart set on a certain outcome & I’m one for a good challenge. Finally , atleast as much as I can remember, I increased the dimmer knob on the light from 65% to about 78%. I won’t increase the watts any higher until bloom sets in fully & at that point I’ll be turning it to 100% raising it a maybe 6 inches & watching patiently for my girls to start praying 🙏 to it . Week 3 in the books !

She is getting fat! What a great plant she is - again, little to no deficiencies, other than some light burn but I could not complain to have such strong genetics for my first ever grow! Trichomes are not too cloudy, so still a while to go but what an AUTO!

All nutes finished up on this girl been flushing since Wednesday so will leave her to dry out for a few days and check back in she’s mostly ready

Another great week for the pound cake! I'm so happy that it's growing so big and well for an 11L tub. It's also stretching really well and evenly, all without any training.

All are going strong, zkittles OG auto is nearly 30cm bigger than the rest and has started showing bud sites, the rest are not far behind at all. I think they will be into flowering stage at the end of next week and by then hopefully 30-40cm taller. Do si dos is very different, looks short and stout so will be doing some LST on her. Seems to be happy with the nutrients and strengthening nicely. Added another 600w light on 11/12/20 so 3 600w lights in now.

Day 69: As you can see, lucky the buds gone bigger but because of these intense feeding to fix the grow, they start to get nutrient burns. So for the new week i might only give water until the end with maybe some Regulator, enzymen, humic-blast... They also don't drink fast anymore. Another indicator that they having a hard time taking all the nutrients and that they are at their end of their stage. Some smaller plants, that finished growing and flowering faster, are already done and will get cut down in the comming days. These plants are some Gorilla's and some are cherry cola's. As you see, some have been foxtailing because i had to raise the lamps everytime. I personally don't like fox tail buds but i know some people that love them, pure flower to smoke. I really liked to make those photos in the dark, It shows many flowers and thc.

Welcome back to all of you, farmers friends. We have engaged this week with these beautiful feminized in the process with topping technique ... We test our qualities by challenging us every day!

A friend had a chance to take some photos for me, also continued with some defoliation as well. Nutrients are doing well, hopefully buds really take off this week.

Well I definitely got my nighttime temps down and got some color and trich production going on this girl and the blueberry as well as the orange sherbet. I absolutely cannot wait to smoke this beast. The colas are massive and I've gone to the Overdrive in prep for the coming flush. Cruise control engaged...
