Week 5 : Six Shooter in Biotabs An eventful week, growing daily, destroying its training daily, pulled out it's metal hook and most of its ties , but overall doing well, getting bushy and pushing it's secondaries above the canopy reaching for the light. Turned up the light to 600W, it's making the room a bit warmer but i'm able to control it pretty well. This 6 shooter is basically in the first week of flowering, but will need an extra week or even two of bloom i think before it comes to maturity, i'm guessing week 12. watered with my micro and beneficials solutions, frothy and brownish but i mean clean water is overrated lol gave them some watering with co2 too, but when i sprayed I think i was spraying too close and using tap water in which i had not measured the micro i was adding so the spray left residue everywhere on the leaves, not really sure how to fix it actually, it's not biggie i know but still. I got these bakery trays used for cooking cakes and cookies and i'm using them to lift the pots slightly getting better airflow. I dont know if it's the airflow under the pots or simply that these are just drinking more for the stage of growth they're at but they're getting three waterings this week which means they are drinking fully 50% more on last week ! 9 pints instead of 6 ! special shout out to my new friend @greencropPT for teaching me some new tricks and showing me some cool stuff ! Week 5 : Six Shooter in Vertafort decent week for the vertafort six shooter, used to be the runt, has basically caught up by now. Glad i did some LST the canopy is even which is great to gage how high the light goes - i'm adjusting the HID every couple of days basically following the growth of the plants. This one has bushed out nicely, i removed a fan leaf that was shading the main cola. It's just now pushing out mini pistils , looking forward to seeing how these do during the main flower stretch. Watered her with my micro and beneficials once, co2 enriched water once, and will likely get a third watering this week. Just going in the tent every so often trying to train the side colas and keep the canopy even. Looking forward to seeing some amazing buds come out of this one ! Week 5 : Mr.B's Six Shooter First week of flowering for the tent and everything is going really well actually, Mr.B's not really showing any signs of excess or deficiencies, but i got nervous going into flower so i added some beneficials. The six shooter is bushing out really nice, pushing it's secondary colas above the cannopy. i took two leaves off this one, they were healthy leaves , but thick, dark brown and causing all sorts of shadow... It was a really interesting experience doing the beneficials for the first time, it got clumpy, brownish, frothy ... gross ! and it was "so ghetto" getting spores and such straight out of a zip lock, check my other diaries i'll put some pics up of that just for laughs. I decided to eyeball my micro and kelp spray which means that there is residu all over lol, trying to get rid of it without rubbing it off, but i might just have to do that. lol that was an experience too, i mix it in for the spray and the solution turns red ! never seen that before even on this site ! check out the vid too, you can see me spraying the plants lol... no biggy but it was an eventful week for bulbi and I learned loads and loads ! not sure if I'm doing the beneficials correctly : does anyone know if those bacteria and fungi play well together? anyway VPD is really on point doing very well on that front, and you can tell from the explossive growth : these six shooters completely pulled out their metal hooks ! drop me a line , i'd love to hear from you ! 🚀🚀

Velocità, abbondanza e qualità altissima queste sono le caratteristiche di queste meravigliose varietà ormai in fioritura avanzata. Le temperature ormai sono estive e le piante crescono e fioriscono in maniera spettacolare. Resistono agli afidi e sembrano riempirsi di infiorescenze resinose e fruttate gradualmente. Si vede che ci sta tanta esperienza dietro queste varietà. Sono felice del risultato attuale, in circa tre mesi raccoglierò felicemente. Alcune tipo le Autoultimate sfiorano il metro ed ottanta centimetri di altezza! Il resto delle varietà sono di taglia media e continuano a riempirsi di infiorescenze! Complimenti a tutti vi voglio bene, un abbraccio a tutti!

I enjoyed these autos quite a bit much more convenient for me, cbd wasn’t too resinous so the trim was much easier than my last experiences, having cbd bud nearby will be very useful.

Girls started to flower about a week ago and so far looks good and healthy to me. I have only 20cm space left above the light so I truly hope the stretch phase is getting to the end :) I feel like every grow I have done so far I thought I switched too early and in the end I worry about the space so my next grow will be experiment 12/12 from seed. I have seen very interesting diaries utilising this method so I can't wait to test it. Not much else to mention, standard 2.5 EC (my starting tap water is 0.4 probably due to chlorine?) ph 6.0 humidity is around 55% and 60% during the night, I will definitely get dehumidifier foe the last month, because mould has been my biggest enemy during my previous grows. temp is getting close to 29 celsius during the day. I just ordered some additional clip fans so it hope fully helps to reduce any possible heat stress. I defoliated quite heavily about a week ago and when I finished and put them back, I was a bit worried if I didn't go too hard on them, however just two days ago it was back to normal. Did little bit of defoliation once again today, got rid of some bottom branches and older fan leaves getting no light at the bottom. Really excited about next few weeks, if you have any advice let me know in the comment section. Thanks for checking and have a great day!

The girls smells amasing and are starting to fatten up. Some of the branches are starting to lean as the buds gets heavier and so i decided to start flushing at the very beginning of this week. I have planned a 10-14 days of flush but i might give #1 a few extra days or a week in flowering. I am flushing with PH'ed water (6) and i am adding 15 ml of Bud Candy for the first flush. I will add 7.5 ml next time and then flush straight PH'ed water for the rest of the flush. The buds on #2(back left) are stacked with frost and smells unbelievable. Like straight diesel from the gas station. And the auto flower Blueberry420 auto from AMS are just stacked with frost as well its not that visable on my camera but was under 12/12 from seed and will produce no more than 15 gr. in my estimation but for sure it will turn out some delicious smoke. The other 2 i dont want to talk about. Bad growing techniques from me and maybe one bad seed but super nice journey it have taken me on

HARVEST CHOPPED 17TH SEPT - DAY 127 FROM SEED DRIED FOR 10 DAYS PLANT 1 - 127g (4.5oz) PLANT 2 - 151g (5.4oz) TOTAL 278g (10 oz) Sorry for the late post! Harvesting has been the main priority. Everything is done now though! These 2 plants ended up verrrrry different. One smells sweet and gassy and fresh, and the other smells extremely savoury, almost like chicken ramen. Trimming only took a couple days, and I’m really happy with the result! The smoking experience is very pleasant. The nugs are sooooo sticky that I need to prepare my roaches and papers before I touch the flower otherwise my fingers will be too sticky. An amazing dilemma!

So i had to take all my plants inside because i found bud rot on 2 of them & the weather wasn’t going to get any better, had to transform my bedroom into a grow room😂 & i have 2 more plants which i am going to finish next to a window.. The smaller plant to the right is a Northern light by zamnesiaseeds that has a seperate diary if you are interested! I really hope the bud rot doesn’t spread anymore & if anyone has any tips or tricks for that they are always welcome!

Alot going on in my personal life so im kinda ghosting this page, sorry! Hope you still like the diary:) Update: the strech is getting real! Au#1 will recieve a little curing method for her dried look: ill let her dry out just a bit and then give her just water for once. Should solve the issue, besides that: bloom madness as always (my grow guru told me that blooming phase is always a hassle)

Struggling now with temps due to weather getting warmer. Next week may be worse. Other than that all good, plants showing how they're going to end up kinda, some characteristics showing through now
