Hello Diary. It has completed its sixth week of flowering, a total of 9 weeks since Watermelon sprouted. As can be seen in the photos, most of the leaves have turned yellow and do not look pretty. The consequences are probably over-feeding at some point, plus, the harvest is approaching and the leaves get a more yellowish color. As for the flowers, they look beautiful, have taken on a purple color and are covered with trichomes. The smell is intense. I would like to mention that over-feeding reflected a lot on Watermelon which was not the case with her roommates Purple Punch with whom she shares “Farm”. So I advise future growers to be more careful with adding nutrients. Watering is every three days, I regulate or lower the p.H of water to values ​​between 6.1 and 6.5. And I do that with every preparation of water for irrigation. I stopped adding any additives the previous week so they get clean water. Let’s take a look at the review of the week. 26/03/2021 - Day 59. Watering. p.H. water I regulated to 6.4 Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25 degrees and 32% humidity. 29/03/2021 - Day 62. Watering. p.H - 6.3 Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25 degrees and 36% humidity. 30/03/2021 - Day 63. Photography. This time I didn't photograph them on a black background, I didn't want to stress them too much, I'll take detailed photos for the end anyway. That’s it for this week, without much excitement, I’m patiently waiting for the harvest. See you soon.

Big improvement on all the Royal Queen Seeds plants this week. That same Sundae Driver that hermed has not shown any new male flower growth at all. In fact, the Sundae Driver buds are all looking a bit denser this week. Their smell is incredible. It smell is identical to a bowl of fruity pebbles when I was a kid. Also, check out the coloration on the leaves near the buds. As the plants grow closer to full maturity those purple edges should bleed deeper into the leaves. Purple Queen also exploded in her development this week. Still only minimal trichome development, but her buds have grown visibly larger. Her smell is less sweet, closer to the OG Kush but with a little citrus. I’m certain the Royal Queen crop’s development this week must be due to last week’s maintenance. I trimmed all the growth beneath the trellis and, on the Sundae Driver, I removed entire branches that had male flower growth. Later in the week a few hours after watering you could really see that the plants were focusing all their growth up top at the bud sights. And last but not least, FastBuds’ OG Kush is continuing to fatten up her nugs. Some resin was observed this week, along with a few amber trichomes. According to FastBuds, this next week could be her last. Her trichome ratio will likely be sufficient this time next week, but I may let her go a bit further.

Day 85 - Starting week 13 and nothing major going on, just waiting for her to finish up. She’s got another day or two before she needs water and she’ll get just plain water till harvest. Still very little amber in her right now but hopefully she’ll get a bunch more in the next week then she’ll get the axe. Day 89 - She’s just about finished, all the leaves are yellowed and pretty shriveled up but hoping she’ll last a few more days. There’s still not a whole lot of amber trichs in there so after some plain water today, I’m hoping she’ll push out to the finish, she is starting to foxtail quite a bit as well.

Temps and humidity remained stable at 81-83f and between 70-78% humidity. Both are performing extremely well. Lsd 25 is the largest of all the plants and is extremely vigorous. Healthy green growth. They're both up to 700 ppm. The zkittles on the other hand, I suspect is the closest to the fan, which is blowing directly on her and that would obviously impact leaf surface temps which is the reason its leaves actually grow a little deficient but one the leaf is full size it gets healthy! Weird but its likely true. Anyways blasting on to week 4. Stay tuned folks!

Day 78 - these gnarly buds are so dense! a. will be using Ripen blend now b. going the distance with this lady, there are many little solid calyx like buds all over the place c. still about 20+ days to go d. the smell is INTENSE, the resin production is incredible Day 79 - she loves Ripen a. buds grew everywhere b. will be getting 2 full weeks of ripen, then flush with FloraKleen e. changed to an 18/6 light schedule to generate even more resin Day 80 - swelling a. all the little buds are swelling up b. the top buds are gnarly as hell on this plant, the smell though is so intense Day 81 - buds are still growing a. growth occurring all over the place b. like Dinafem says, the buds will become too heavy for the branches and you MUST tie them up, they will bubble out and grow like crazy c. I captured some video of the sativa calyx jungle today d. this plant LOVES GHE Ripen! Day 82 - explosions everywhere a. the calyx like buds are exploding all over the place Day 83 - smells great a. love this classic haze smell! Day 84 - this plant is a MUTANT MONSTER!

The week went pretty well. I cut off a couple more fan leaves that were just looking pretty sad and were blacking the branches anyways. Also, I transplanted it to the 2.2 gallon Airpot on Friday. It seems to be taking to its new home well. I think it was rootbound and that was part of the problem I’ve been having. The plant grew 2 inches this week so despite the issues I’ve been having the plant is still growing and is actually looking pretty good again. My main concern now is that the tent is too small. I have the light as high as the pulley allows and it is now about 12 inches away from the plant. I should have been training this sideways and topping it earlier. Lesson learned for next time, if I can’t control the height I may need to force flowering early.

25.07 Watering with 200 - 400 - 400 - 400 Used only 4ml/L TOP-Max (honestly I forgot about the fact, that I have to use the BioBizz Products only once in a week and I already added 4ml before I realized it…) 26.07 my neighbor complained about the smell one store under my balcony (told me he can smell it on the street 50 meters behind my balcony) 28.07 watering 400 - 400

The girls started to pre-flower on the 6th of June. They all have a slight smell when you rub the leaves. Kosher cake, Strawberry banana and the Forbidden runtz have a sweet smell to them. The Forbidden runtz reminds me of the smell of skywalker OG which is totally LUSH..!! The blackberry has more of an deep earthy smell with a slight bit of fruitiness. Super excited for the next few weeks with these ladies. Happy toking my peeps 😁

1/11: Fed today, but had no time for photos. 1/15: Didn't have time to feed today...😕 1/16: Fed everybody...little bit of drought...sorry girls... Uploaded photos- 😍 I put a new 15.0 intensity reptile UVB into the tiny tent, about 14-18" away from the plants. Hopefully that stresses them enough to make Wicked_Stix jealous of all the frost they produce....

Been doing a lot of tweaking with the new gear and multiple sets of plants. Been quite a busy week and probably behind a bit on keeping track of everything. I'm currently working on trying to get better charts made to keep track of things like light schedules, detailed feedings, height change per day, etc. My current setup is my oldest 1st set of plants (5plants) and my 3rd set (6 seedlings), in my new 4x4 Vivosun grow tent equipped with a Spider Farmer SF-1000. I have kept my 2nd set of plants (4plants) in my original 4x2 Vivosun equipped with 600W Vivosun LED. These plants had been extremely stressed due to not having soil or containers available with shipping constraints. They've been doing a lot better since then and I'm hoping they make a full recovery. Fingers crossed! Running 24hr light schedule. Both tents equipped with temp/hygro high and low ranging from about 71-81°F with an average of about 78°F. Watering by plant pot weight, according to GH FloraTrio + CalMag Schedule. Mild LST via tucking of leaves blocking developing sites. No more than 3 leaves removed per plant, per day to avoid stress. ______________________________________ Can't wait to start upgrading the quality of my journals and to hear you all's feedback! Happy growing and good vibes as always 🌱 ______________________________________ 4/29/20 - Update Okeydoke! Feel like I've been doing too much running around everywhere. Sorry for being so hectic the past week or so if anyone has been keeping up with this 😂 For the time being, I'm currently running all three sets of my plants in my 4x4 tent. It's running all three of my fans, both lights and has the carbon filter system and humidifier hooked up to it as well. I basically have the other 4x2 just sitting as a shell for the moment. Either planning to save it for climate control when curing the first harvest or sell it to invest in another Spider Farmer SF-1000 LED or equivalent and possibly another 4x4 tent. I have started a grow chart that's still a little sketchy but if nothing else having it here hells me keep up with it that much better. [April 24th @ 3pm] Plant 1- (11in.) 2- (9in.) 3- (14.75in.) 4- (13in.) 5- (10.75in.) [April 26th @ 1:30pm] Plant 1- (11in.) 2- (9.5in.) 3- (18in.) 4- (14in.) 5- (11.5in.) [April 27th @ 12pm] Plant 1- (11.5in.) 2- (10.5in.) 3- (20.5in) 4- (15.25in.) 5- (11.5in) [April 29th @ 4am] Plant 1- (12in.) 2- (10.5in.) 3- (23in.) 4- (16in.) 5- (11.75in.) [April 30th @ 3:30pm] Plant 1- (12.25in.) 2- (10.5in.) 3- (25.75in.) 4- (16.75in.) 5- (12in.) ______________________________________ The most current batch of nutrient mixes for was made this morning about (2am 4/29/20) for the 1st and second set of plants. The first set of plant's nutrients was made to 4gal of water. The mix is a ratio of (Cal-Mag/GHMicro/GHGro/GHBloom) It's mixed (for the 4gal) in order; 10mL, 5mL, 10mL, 10mL. 440ppm @ 98.5°F 890EC @ 2.2°F us/cm This new nutrient mix was applied for the first time tonight and will run about a week. I'm running a bit behind according to the GH schedule I was following due to stunting the growth I felt like over a couple issues to where I have them an extra week of veg nutrients. As I have defoliated them and they have seemed to take it pretty well, I'm hoping the increase in bloom nutrients will kick the buds into overdrive for production and the plants will start to thicken up again. The second mix follows the same order as the first set in regards to nutrient usage. This mix is only mixed to one gallon. It as follows; 2.5mL, 2.5mL, 1.25mL, 2.5mL. 500ppm @ 98.6°F 992EC @ 0.4°F us/cm This is mostly following the same GH nutrient schedule as the first set only about 2 weeks behind. These plants suffered from being in too small of containers for too long and I believe this stunted their growth. I've had them in suitable new containers for a couple days now and hoping this new mix of increased nutrients will bring them back to life a bit and get them back in schedule. I'm honestly not too sure still about the ppm and EC numbers but a few bud-dies have mentioned that it plays important roles in plant health. So until I can better research good numbers and how to control it for my set up, I'm at the very least trying to keep track of the data. I apologise about this large chunk of text! I hope you enjoy the diary anyway in spite of the fact. I'm loving the look of the buds and everything seems to be going great. Only a few months to go! 😎

This plant is problematic. First of all, the Calcium deficiency is back whereas I feed her correctly and her siblings (GBK+OGK) don't suffer from this, so I assume she doesn't like the light as much as the other strains do, and she probably had too much light for the last weeks so I raised the plant-to-lamp distance, this should slow down her cal+mag consumption, let's see how this goes. Secondly, she stopped stretching, she will remain a short plant, and considering the number of colas on the manifold I built, things will become tricky. I'm already afraid of mold during late flowering, but I will keep a close eye on her and may remove some colas if she doesn't get enough air. Finally, she doesn't drink a lot. I'm a bit confused since I did proceeded to seedling selection and gave her good cares and much love. Wait and see, hopefully she will give some tasty frosty buds 😎 Thanks for stopping by!

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 grows First, I'm just going to say I'm done with the construction of my new growroom. I put some pictures on the construction here in week one. 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 theme 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 8 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. I am very excited to see how the new growroom will work and how this CBD Fast Eddy plant from Royal queen seeds will turn out. CBD Fast Eddy Automatic is combining Cheese x Juanita la Lagrimosa x Ruderalis, Fast Eddy is a rapid growing, flavourful, and CBD-rich auto strain that goes from seed to harvest in 8-9 weeks, produce generous yields, and induce a clear, mellow, and most importantly, functional high. THC: 9% CBD: High Yield Indoor : 400 - 450 gr/m2 Yield Outdoor: 80 - 130 gr/plant Height Indoor: 60 - 100 cm Height Outdoor: 80 - 120 cm Flowering: 6 - 7 weeks Harvest month: 8-9 weeks after sprouting Genetic Background: Cheese x Juanita la Lagrimosa x Ruderalis Type: Sa 50% In 40% Ru 10% Effect: Clear, Painrelief Climate: Mild ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-18. Week 4 starts and she is in flower. She is 36 cm high and looking really healthy. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-19. 2 new fans is installed in the grow room. Added pic and video. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2017-09-20. Kl 10.00. New video. The girl is 38 cm high and doing great. Kl 23.00. Did some massive defoliation, added video and pics ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2017-09-22. The girl have recovered well after my massive defoliation. She is 39 cm high now and have received 2 liters of water and nutrition today.
