Welcome to my Sour Strawberry(ies) one was meant to be snipped by now. Instead im going to put both in either end of a very large pot and weave them together in a 50cm2 scrog Veg Days 0-6 0-3 &0-2 Seedling Days a few on smaller pheno. DAYS 9-15 As you can see. Both are in the same pot i cut off my finger badly. So, no hard work is allowed while stitches are in. And uppotting and mixing soil will just be do much work. I'll wait a week but, I will separate them into different pots so they can recover individually making sure each separate needs are met. And once I've a stable balance. I'll put both on either end of a big 50xcm2 pout (bout 30L) Edit Day 15 and 12 Pheno 1 & 2 both in 2x 1.7L pots. FLMING'ed both plants after 20hrs of a rough upppot a lot of stress but, they're pushing through. Pheno 1 &2 i removed 1st sets of nodes and pheno 1 i removed the nodes directly underneath the Flming point. Thanks to my sponsor from Spider-Farmer for the great product. Plants are growing much more of a rapid pace. Its a great light SE5000 im using it at 100% 90% on hot days. And it's great. If it wasn't running co2 to match the ppfd I'd only have it set at 75-80% Much appreciation to all who viewed, liked &/R commented or just stopped by, either way, thanks. Look forward to seen your diaries.

Yellowing of WW#2 is worrying me, looks to be a nutrient issue maybe? I raised the light above WW#2 by 4 inches in case its light burn as well. Other than that and the nute burn on The other plants things seem well. End of week update: things are looking great, I think whatever happened to WW2 is reducing its ability to form buds? Not sure. It’s looking okay, hoping they’re going to fill out well! Definitely need to grow the widow XXL again, it’s a shame I had another plant fall on WW2 and damage it, likely contributes to the yellowing and such. WW1 still has no amber trichomes, waiting for this entire week to end before I even think about harvesting. I am eager to harvest so I can get more light to lower buds on the other plants. I had to tie up 1/3 NL2 main colas. It was so heavy it was beginning to split the bottom stalk, there was no damage really just maybe 1/20th of the stalk was peeling from the weight. I tied him up to the light and everything seems well. I figured I wouldn’t run into that problem, but don’t underestimate how much weight buds can pack on!

Started LST and accidental HST. Lots of good growth fast now. This may not be a fail after all. Am trying some trial error experiments. ReCharge and GS Liquid Fish and Kelp have helped a ton and Rhino Skin has made for very strurdy stem/leaves that are pliable. Altho I stunted these due to (i think) high ph for a cpl weeks, some LST fun is just a must. This is just an experiment. :) I'll post a qwik vid. Judgement free zone-tips welcome. decided to fim 1 OG Kush and 1 Blackberry because..it's an experiment and I want everyone to say "don't ever top an auto."

She bounced back from last week. Temps are up and down in the outside environment. Not too much problem here. Trying to sweeten her up a bit with the bud candy.

7/14 12am MONDAY. THEY ARE STILL SLEEPING BUT I HAVE BEEN HAVING THE BEST RESULTS. will continue with aminos, mblue , enzyme. 3am ADDED TRIBBLES TO THE DOCTOR PROP, BIG BIG DAY, AND MAGNETIC FACES..... SHOULD INCREASE MY AMINOFUNUPTAKE. LOOK AT THIS!!!!!!! 🚨WHY DOES TMG POWDER WORK SO GOOD ON ME? from search """"AI Overview You're experiencing positive effects from TMG powder, which is likely due to its diverse roles in supporting crucial bodily functions. Here's a breakdown of the key reasons why TMG (trimethylglycine or betaine) might be working well for you: Methylation Support: TMG is a methyl donor, meaning it provides methyl groups (a carbon atom with three hydrogen atoms) that are vital for a process called methylation. Methylation is involved in numerous bodily functions, including DNA repair, gene expression regulation, detoxification, and the production of neurotransmitters (chemicals that influence mood and cognition). If your body's methylation process was inefficient before supplementing with TMG, the addition of these methyl groups could be enhancing many aspects of your health and well-being. Homocysteine Reduction: TMG helps convert homocysteine, an amino acid that can be damaging at high levels, into methionine. Elevated homocysteine is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and other health issues. By supporting healthy homocysteine levels, TMG helps maintain cardiovascular health and blood vessel integrity. Liver Health: TMG plays a role in liver function and detoxification by aiding in fat processing and supporting the body's natural detoxification pathways. Research suggests that TMG may help protect the liver from alcohol damage and be beneficial for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Cognitive Function and Mood: TMG supports the production of neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, which are crucial for mood regulation and mental clarity. Some research suggests TMG may enhance the effectiveness of antidepressants and help alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety, potentially by lowering homocysteine levels. Cellular Health: TMG is an osmolyte, meaning it helps regulate cell volume and maintain fluid and chemical balance within cells. It also acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from damage caused by oxidative stress. Athletic Performance: Some studies suggest that TMG may improve muscle strength, power, and endurance, potentially by influencing creatine synthesis and reducing fatigue. Important considerations While TMG offers potential benefits, research is still ongoing, and some studies have shown mixed results regarding certain benefits, particularly related to athletic performance. It's always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new supplement, including TMG, especially if you have existing medical conditions or are taking other medications. High doses of TMG may cause digestive issues in some individuals. In summary, TMG's positive effects are likely due to its ability to support essential methylation processes, help regulate homocysteine levels, promote liver health, and potentially contribute to cognitive function, mood, cellular health, and athletic performance. If you're experiencing positive results, it's a good indication that your body is benefiting from TMG's multifaceted actions. """""""" 7/ 14 1145PM STILL MONDAY. WATERING TODAY WITH THE SYSTEM AND TAMI INSTEAD OF ADVANCED NUTES/ FOR SUPPLEMTNS. TAMI SMELLS LIKE CLEAN FRESH CLAY SO NICE, SO ALL THE PLANTS SMELL LIKE THAT. ONE MORE TIME WITH TAMMY. 🚨 NO ENERGY SHOTS TODAY!!!! JUST COFFEE. ITS THE QUICK SORB AMINOS, NITRIC BOOST, METHELYENE BLUE, TMG POWDER, METHYL FOLATE PLUS, WOW!!! WHAT WORKS ON ME WORKS ON THE PLANTS, JUST ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! 7/15 Tuesday 424am. All plants are doing great water today with the System and TAMI today, 1pm Tammy is a little bit strong even at a half a milliliter per liter with the exception of the Tyson 2.0 goats. These are just incredible. I can’t begin to describe how strong and how different these are from any other plant I’ve ever grown.🚨🚨🚨👍👍👍👍💥💥🌿 7/16 430am smoking GC Auto I trimmed yesterday, very nice. II love Autos for this. nice smoke right off the plant, no 2 weeks to dry and 4 weeks to cure, nice right away!!! Not perfect some chlorophyll, but bong filters that enough and a nine not too strong feeling. 7/17 330am they are all doing good. I felt it was time to try a higher wattage on the lights. I hope it’s not a mistake, but I have the cooling system worked up so it should help exit the hot air directly off of the driver on the light, they seem very strong and able to handle the extra light we’ll see.🚨🚨👍

***** Week 9 growth - February 6 to 12, 2021 - Week 1 Flower ***** Here we go.......on to flower now. Last week was transition week and bud sites are setting on the girls now. Lights flipped a week ago to 12/12.......typical flower. I expect stretch to be strong this week. Pheno 1 is going to be a big girl. Pheno 2 looks beautiful in growth but she is shorter in height........might be more desirable at the finish line😀 Nutrients switched over to flower schedule and following week 1 again this week. Next week will move up the ppm more and start on bud enhancers. More microbes and sweetener this week. Silica ppm also increasing now as not looking to bend branches much more now. Switching microbes to Recharge and giving the DGC some love👍 Have a hole in the canopy that I am just going to need to live with. GSCHB and MM2 did not growth as expected. They are not reaching up as tall as the others and stretch is slow. Not looking like they will catch up in next couple of days☹️☹️☹️ These girls are vegged one week less than the others in flower with them.......looking to be the bigger girl in the tent😀 Raised the light to 24” off canopy. At 310 watts and 20” they were getting too much light. Pulled up roughly 4” and left the power alone. Liking the change. Another week yet and will work on increasing intensity. Little more detail....... Feb 6/21 - Day 1 - been drying for 2 days now so water day with some supplements - 3L each girl with CalMag @ 2ml, AN B52 @ 1.5ml (using up an old bottle to finish), Enzymes @ 1ml - 575ppm and 5.9pH - Need to start increasing silica. Using up some B52 which has some silica in it.......and other vitamins so its all good😀 Feb 7/21 - Day 2 - Leaves up today and praying nicely. - dry out day - stretch is going now and the girls are growing hard Feb 8/21 - Day 3 - Feed day again, going to stay with week 1 flower nutrients, same as last week. - IPP Grow @ 1ml, Micro @ 2ml, Bloom @ 2ml, Black Storm @ 3ml, Sea Storm @ 5ml, B+ @ 0.5ml, Red Sun @ 0.5gr, Carbs @ 1ml, Natures Candy @ 1ml, Piranha @ 1ml, Microbes @ 2ml. - 4L for each girl.......yeah, took a little longer to mix up this feed😀 - 1350ppm and 5.9pH - no run off from the girls today......little light on the water, they should have had 5L each. - last feed with bud starter, Red Sun, next will be Bud Fusion for bud booster next week. Feb 9/21 - Day 4 - no run off yesterday so adding more water today......plain tap water.....no additives - 5L for each girl. 225ppm and 6.0pH - good run off today. Feb 10/21 - Day 5 - Nothing today......watered two days in a row - ready for more silica!! Branches need to firm up. Feb 11/21 - Day 6 - Recharge arrived today!!!!!! Time for more microbes and sweetener😀💪 - purple stripes on main stems so adding more magnesium through Epsom salts - 4L mixture for the girls with Epsom Salts @ 0.5Tbsp, Silica @ 1.5ml, IPP Carbs @ 1ml, Recharge @ 1 tsp - 1,000ppm and 5.9pH - different microbes now and excited! Feb 12/21 - Day 7 - Nothing again today.......give them watering tomorrow morning. - Wondering if their leaves are a little dark........consider bring down ppm next week.......it was hard this week at 1300ppm........water is 250 on its own so around 1100ppm nutes added. Looking good ETS......Pheno 2 is the smaller of the two but suspect she might be the keeper as far as growth goes😉 Several more days of stretch to go I suspect.

Top dressed with some more soil. The top was looking depleted and just want to keep it from completely taking all the nutrients from the soil. Added a mix of power bloom with azomite and glacial rock dust. I watered in with some pure protein dissolved into hot water then added to the water I was using at diluted levels. The second watering they got this week was with molasses. which also does a good job of dropping the ph of my water to the perfect level and a little bit of Epsom salt because I ran out of my cal mag and also want the plant to have plenty of sulfur. Buds are looking cool and remind me of little pine trees. At first glance it seems like they are starting to foxtail but the buds are fattening once the new growth on top starts to expand more. the main colas are almost a foot long each, but hard to tell because the planetary buds around the main colas are blocking them from getting a good picture. Amazed by how frosty the sugar leaves and even some of the older fan leaves are. Her smells are mostly sweet and candy-like. got a little sneek peak of what her fade should look like from one of the leaves being severed partially with a nice yellow and purple. She put on a decent amount of weight this week but towards the end,I can tell she's starting to slow down. Looks like it will still bulk a little more but noticing fewer white and more orange hairs. hoping all my plants finish around 8-9 weeks. i want to try to harvest them all at the same time if i can.

It was a wonderful journey, I really had the honor of doing this girl many times, this time even close to the Monster Zkittlez with which they generated the Runtz who was also in the grow. Super modern family situation, I wanted to try to figure out which one I liked best, and I still haven't been able to. at least I'm still tasting Runtz's first flowers and it's heavenly but the freshly picked Gelato and the upcoming Zkittlez are scary just to see them. Super resin, it really looks fake, I also have some macro photos that will make you cry. The resin is everywhere the trichomes are even in the largest leaves the scent is of the garden of eden. wow. Show. Really nice. It was freshly cleaned I want to try to do the resin the first time and then I have freshly cleaned and hung the whole girl upside down under the crop data next week when I clean and can give the detail. Gorgeous. Before being collected, she did two music therapy days, one of which in the dark with frequencies for plants and together we listened: 1 - Paolo Conte - "Gelato" al Limon 2 - Raekwon - Ice Cream to stay on the "Geato" theme and then all the M83 discography to be collected with the very famous Outro of Interstellar really seems to pass to a better life listening to that stuff.

Welcome growmies, to the becoming of Amaretto Tarmac. You don't need to ask me twice concerning almonds, amaretto, or marzipan.. 😋 😍 Genetics: Amaretto Sour X Apollo Black Cherry And OMFGS she turns purple!! 💜 Thanks @SeedstockersOfficial for the beautiful goodie pack!! :squirrel: 💚 💨 Can't wait to grow the new stuff!! Everybody, if you like, check out the other Seedstockers' new strain I grow here on GD: Terp&Tonic Auto! https://growdiaries.com/diaries/178026-grow-journal-by-slowpokefuegobud Thanks @GreenBuzzNutrients for sponsoring your products, I am very happy!! 💚 If anyone wants to give those nutes a try, you find a generous discount code in my setup description! 😙 _______________________________________________________________ Strain description: Amaretto Tarmac was born from the cross of two varieties with a high pedigree: on the one hand, the tasty American Amaretto Sour; and, on the other, the resinous Apollo Black Cherry. This union results in a sativa-leaning strain that will certainly captivate those users looking for a psychoactivity that is both powerful and energising, and which induces creativity. This is a 5-star strain whose terpene profile is something incredibly special: the combination of a hot tarmac aroma on a bitter background, along with an Amaretto flavour and a mix of cherry, blueberry, and kola undertones. A truly unique taste that is a must for those with the most demanding palates who are in search of new experiences. With a relatively short flowering period for an 80% sativa-dominant strain, Amaretto Tarmac will be ready for harvest in just 8 weeks (in late September when grown outdoors). This beauty is also highly decorative as she can express two different types of phenos: one with more greenish tones, and another one with lovely shades of purple. ______________________________________________________________ Setup: 140x70x200 cm Spiderfarmer tent 2x Monkey 16W fans (not oscillating) 1x Secret Jardin 30W 1x box fan 50W oscillating (on lowest level) LED Full Spectrum 320W AGLEX AGL-320W-MA 5,6 kg foldable, dimmable 864 pieces Samsung LH301H 864umol/s 2,7umol/J full spectrum white + RED 660nm + IR 740nm wavelength range 380-780nm covering 3x4ft Green Buzz Nutrients https://greenbuzzliquids.com/ ❗ Use code GD42025 for generous 25% discount (for orders of minimum 75€) Biobizz Lightmix Carbon Active Granulate Filter 125/360 cm³/h PrimaKlima exhaust EC 125-400/240 cm³/h

Lesson learned - wet leaves + close lamps fry plants! Plant seems to be bouncing back in a big way. Watered with a garden globe kept it mostly moist, had a couple dry days and today Apr 4 watered from the bottom in a tub for two hours. taken out of tub and placed back on riser twenty minutes before lights on. Photo taken three hours later after some minor defoliation and tucking. Seems like flowering is happening and timing wise we turned the corner just in time for plant health and environment correction. Loving the aquarium rock top layer over soil for aesthetic and love the vivid green on this plant what a beauty! thank you to sweet seeds for a tough baby girl who is turning into a fine young woman! Any and all feedback welcome this is a new hobby for me. Previously have started jalepeno peppers indoors and then moved to outdoor container for summer, but never a grow tent like this wow.
