I sliced my thumb open so this weeks report will be short. We had budlets show up and have come in strong. All 7 colas are firm and strong. I was able to apply some tie downs to allow more light in to the bottom canopy. No issues to report other than some small colored tips that I’ll keep my eye on. The environment is pretty solid. No issues there to report. In case you didn’t know, we are approaching the most crucial weeks of flowering, weeks 4-6. From my research, this is a very crucial time for cannabis plants. Hopefully my thumb will have healed up next week. This is what I get for planting a tree on Earth day while stoned!

Week 3 has come and gone and it was a sight to see!! All the pistills came in nice and strong. I have to get in there and defoliate every couple a days a bit. This will be the last week of defoliation. Once I can see the main bud sights I will do my final trim. Started reducing the Nitrogen as the stretch faze comes to an end and up the bloom ferts. I cant raise my light much more so I hope they stop stretching this week. Im excited to see the flowers grow into these pistills and watcch the calayx swell.

| 📅 Week 3 | Days 15 - 21 | 💡 562w 📏38' | | 🌡️️🌞 78 - 82 | | 🌡️️🌑 73 - 77 | 11/23 Reservoir swap with increased nutrients and PH adjusted to 5.8. The plants have been spread out a little more to give them space. 11/24 Temperatures are fine however humidity could use a bump. PH in reservoirs adjusted to 5.6. 11/25 PH adjusted to 5.8 and reservoirs topped off with water. The PH fluctuations have been rough for this strain. It doesn't seem to like the Hydros wavering PH. 11/26 The light was raised a few inches to match growth. PH adjusted to 5.8 and the humidity is still lower than I would like it to be. 11/27 Reservoirs topped off and PH set to 5.8. Fans adjusted to better circulate the air around the tent. 11/28 Daily PHing and reservoir topping as usual. The back right plant is still doing its silly genetic thing as i'm sure it will all grow. Debating on cutting it early and saving the time and tent space. 11/29 PH adjusted to 5.8 and a single reservoir needing topped off. Plants appears to be rebounding from PH fluctuations but its to early to know for certain. This marks the end of week 3 and the growth was fine and fast like expected from this breeder. The plants have started showing sign of PH fluctuations as these genetics don't seem to enjoy hydroponics to much, however I'm confident in them developing resiliency as they grow and getting past it. I am debating doing a PH twice daily to minimize the PH window. One shows nitrogen toxicity. With these being Autoflowers anything that slows them down is a problem so we are going to see what we can do to minimize the effects the fluctuations have on these plants. I'm confident they will be dank in a few weeks 😎

Chopped her two days into week 14. What else. Buds. There are a lot of them. And they are quite large. And they look like they will require little effort to trim. What more can I wish for? I am a very happy man. Upd 1: Trimming is SO SIMPLE! Not much sticking out to begin with, because of the amazing bud structure and me plucking most bud node fans. Solid nugs which are not bothered by anything, so pulling smaller sub-bud fans is very simple too, while the buds are what I would call moist. I'll call this Moist Trim 😄 ✂️✂️✂️ Went for the best trimming tools available on the market (well at least my research concluded so) and LOVING every minute of trimming with the B-500SRF. Why would I or anyone else use something less suitable or less comfortable for such a delicate and long job is beyond me, except if you cannot afford one right now, in which case I wish you to experience it one day. Fiskars are also very good in therms of the blades, coating and cutting ability and precision, but the spring is just too stiff, like way, way to stiff for something that is to be used for hours on end. One might argue that such spring force helps overcome resin buildup, but please just rinse your instrument regularly in an appropriate solvent (ethy, iso, whatever — consider you instrument materials as well) and wipe it after. Why would you let significant amounts of resin to accumulate on such a gentle and precise tool? Kinda defeats the purpose?

I don't have much to show or say for this week.. It was incredible to notice the radical differences in the plants appearance in just sever days but it was also quite nerve wracking!!! Once I got the plant transferred I decided to go ahead and feed her with Green Planet's Medi-One (an organic bottled nutrient that I still had lying around). The original plan was to attempt a dry amendment grow but as the dry amendments where no where to be found after placing my order, I opted to use what I had handy. I went ahead with a water soluble nutrient that would immediately activate the roots and supply nutrients to the sterile medium and I am happy that I did. The very next day after the 1st feeding the plant already started to look different and just "perkier"

Well, week 11 has started today 8/15. So blessed to have gotten this far! I'll be flipping the lights tomorrow to begin to start flowering. I have both my tents linked up so I don't have to run two separate exhausts! Now that the stress part is over time to sit, enjoy some puffs and continue focusing my energy! Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: 8/17 Day one of 12/12 in the books! I gotta say, I always chill with my plants before I turn down for the night and it was strange not doing it last night, lol. So I'm gonna get some green lights! I have an awesome app on my phone called Hydroponics Green Screen Light, it's in the app store for free. Developer in Timothy Johns. It works great but not enough for me. But it is great if you need to go in during the dark cycle for whatever reason. Or you can get yourself a lamp and a green grow room bulb! Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: 8/19 Everything is looking very good. Got some very noticeable growth! That's about it really. Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️ UPDATE: 8/21...just uploading a few pics to end the week with. Well 12 and the start of 2nd week of flower begins tomorrow! Everything still looking good 😁 Happy growing everyone ✌️🍀✌️

Fastbuds Week 2 CrystalMeth Auto This little lady surprises me every day. Starting to show some explosive growth since last week so I hope she'll continue on her path to greatness. Giving it straight water up to this point but since I'll be giving my other girls a molasses tea feeding this coming week I think she's going to get a little to. Until next week Happy growing.

Start of flowering, week 1, day 29 for plants 2 & 3. Plant 1 will stay in veg, following same feed schedule as previous week's, but she will no longer be included in this diary. Plants 2 and 3 look very healthy and I trimmed several lower branches as they were getting minimal light.

Today is 11/7/18. Watered GDP #1 and bagseed #1 today with nutes....... I am going to post these pics as a reminder for myself and as a leraning tool for anyone that like visuals. I am learning that these babies can be thirst buckets...I was making sure I don't do the newbie mistake of over watering...well, underwateringcan be just as bad. I been watering apprx. every 2 days...but this is what happens when I don't ...they end up frowning and hugging the pots. But I was informed, the smaller the pot, the more frequent I will have to water. They are in 1 gallon pots...The roots are not visible through drain holes; therefore, I haven't transplanted into 2/3 gallons. Today is 11/8/18, I decided I will be transplanting GDP #1 and Bagseed #1 into 2 gallon pots. They did fully recover from dehydration. GDP#2 will remain in the 1 gallon pot for a lil while unless roots start appearing through drain holes. This plant has been tempermental from day 1. I don't understand why one side of the plant responds well to any training I have done (lst, manifold, topping, etc): howerever, the other side seems to have problems and take awhile to recover. It was suggested to throw it away long ago....I am a new grower and I felt I should keep it as a plant I can LEARN from, which I have learned a great deal. Today is 11/9/18. watered thoroughly because I didnt when I transplanted. Defoliated Bagseed #2. Today was photo day. Today is 11/11/18, I did a moderate defoliation. Today is 11/12/18, watered w/nutes only. Today is 11/14/18, watered with cal-mag only. Today will water with nutes and after tonights lights end their 18 hour light cycle, 12/12 will begin.

Gorilla Auto - From seed to harvest Startling growth, they got very tall quickly. When I thought the vegetative state was about to end, they grew even taller. Beginning its flowering, I chose to research methods to optimize and circumvent its size as the dimensions of my set are not those indicated for a plant that has shown itself to be very fast to develop. After some research: I followed some techniques to essentially “get light evenly across the plant” Following nutrient feeding dosages recomended by manufacturers and get no trouble at all, it will grow undoubtedly to be a majestic plant to be harvested. I got the idea that if you have more light the expected results will undoubtedly be even better than what I got with the 100w One of the characteristics that I noticed that in just 3 weeks of growth we already smell the intense plant. With regard to the buds I picked and in my case undoubtedly the ones that got the most light I can describe that they were superb in appearance and smoking very tasty, the lower though smaller ones came out with a very close quality too. Undoubtedly, this plant is what we expect when we start planting, so much to see the growth and development over the weeks, at the time of its harvest feel that the results obtained are completely above expectations. : 0) Its aroma is very good and balanced, the trip even better! ; 0) Thank you all for your support & my special thanks to RQS for the motivation you gave me!

The cheese terpenes are very strong now, I think I'm really going to enjoy this strain and it appears we'll have a lot of it too ❤️🌱.. about 4-5 weeks to go!! _~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

Con 22 dias, pasados 7 de la última poda de hojas y 22 del cambio de fotoperiodo me decidí por hacerles una nueva poda, esta algo más severa . Yemas, hojas y chupópteros de bajos. A partir de entonces solo se irán quitando muy de vez en cuando alguna hoja o algun brote o yema que pueda salir por ahí que no me guste, muy poca cosa. Me deshice de la malla, harto me tenia. La quité para la poda y luego me hizo mucha pereza volver ponerla. Prefiero menos cantidad. Esta semana explosión de tricomas
