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 ! 🚀🚀

FD36 - True to form I completely forgot to take any pics before the lights were out. The third week in a row. I'm detecting a pattern... lol FD37 - Pics! FD38 - Today, I was proactive in trying to prevent botrytis (budrot) since I have had problems in the past when temperatures and humidity get too high in late flower. I started with defoliating hard by removing fan leaves. That should lower the humidity in the tent as there are fewer leaves to transpire moisture, and also increase the airflow around the buds. Finally, I put my small humidifier in the tent to further lower the humidity. FD41 - The anti-humidity measures are working. The tent went from an average RH in the high 60s to the high 40s. (The average RH in the last 24 hours was 48.9%.) I'm happy with that, which should be enough to avoid budrot. Better safe than sorry, so I did additional LST to open up the plants and thus increase the airflow around the buds. It's also helpful to increase light penetration, so win-win. FD42 - We're at the end of the sixth week of flower, and things are chugging along in the tent. The buds are slowly fattening up, but it will take some time before they are done. There isn't much to do in the tent this late in flower besides watering. Today, each girl got 2.5-liters of water @ pH 6.5.

4 Purple Push Pops PPP (grew 2023 outside)2 Black Cherry Gelato BCG (love to smoke it, first time growing) Clones- from my clone guy 1000w LED, 4G Autopots,, coco/perlite 65/35, GH 3-part+ flourolicious, calimagic, SI, chelated iron, and humic acid , RO water, AC pro Controller and T8, 5x5 GG Tent with extension Garage grow SoCal This week I was out of town and let my grow grow. The autopots did their thing at about .6g a day. I did battle multiple hot days in the garage. We’re running just under 1000ppm with no issues. I ran out of bloom and used some powdered kool bloom and it worked well. Thinking of switching to jacks RO but it’s working so good now I don’t want to switch. This weeks accomplishments: install two more autopots - for the gelatos. I put the gelatos in fabric autopots, one 5g xl and one 15g xxl. Scrogging the gelatos to flatten the canpoy Long term issues Cooling and VPD targets during heat waves Preventing pest and mold issues - my humidity crept up high when I was gone and I saw a few powder leaves which were promptly removed upon my return. I had to take my fiancé to a swanky resort for a few days. I hope you all are having as much fun as I am. Best of luck gromies. Check out my black cherry gelato grow. Soon I’ll be posting my outdoor light dep grow - side by side with my indoor grow- same clone batch. This should be a great comparison of indoor versus outdoor grows side by side 👍

Hey everyone :-) This week a lot has happened 🤗🍀. The 5 that are already in the 12/12 cycle explode day after day 😍😅. All others have been repotted, and will remain in the vegi phase for 1-2 weeks. Otherwise there is not much to say 😃. I wish you all a good start into the week, let it grow and stay healthy 🙏🏻🍀🌱

Hey now! This week went very well. I feel like she is finally done growing, and just starting to thicken up and ripen. I did switch from the liquid koolbloom to the dry, and within 48 hours or so I really started noticing the weight of the colas start leaning towards the floor. I did support the main colas last week, but this week I noticed several of the smaller unsupported colas started drooping to the floor, so i added a few support lines. I am thinking maybe she has two or three weeks left. I am not a big believer in an all out flush, as I do not wish to stress her out even near the end. Rather, I am gradually weaning her off the nutes over the next 2-3 weeks. She is starting to get brown tips on almost every leaf so not sure if this is just her being near the end or a bigger issue?? Any advice please hit me up! I'm still struggling with humidity issues, but she seems to be ok! Thank you so much to everyone in this community for all the love, support, and help with my first grow. Thanks and blaze on!

5.27.25. What’s up growers! So plant is growing but was stressed out way to much so plant is definitely well under performing. 4th week of flower started on 5.26.25. I got about 5-6 weeks left of flower so hopefully she turns out ok. Thanks for checking out grow!

They are all coming along nicely. I’m concerned that they are fading a little early. I’ve used the nutrients may add a bloom booster

Hi! 4 plants will be in this diary, Blue Sherbet S1 Feminized Seeds By The Plug SeedBank. Blue Sherbet S1 Feminized Seeds are a Plug favorite. This Blue Sherbet S1 also spelled Sherbert is a mix of Sunset Sherbet and Blue Cookies. A very powerful smell due to the impressive production. These feminized seeds tend to let off a deep green and purple tone towards the end of the bloom period. Expect an 8 to 9 week flower period and yields of 550g/M2. Cerebral effects with powerful physical relaxation. The plug has done it again. We can expect nothing less than exceptional genetics from a team of experienced and dedicated breeders. 24K Gold Feminized Seeds By DNA Genetics. 24K Gold Feminized Seeds are a multi-award-winning blend of Kosher Kush and the 2013 twelve cup Sativa champion Tangie. With aroma’s of tangerine and the cup winning Kosher Kush, 24 carrot is one in its own by DNA Genetics. Due to Kosher flavored fruits with strong citrus undertones, this F1 hybrid has an impressive aroma in the bloom period. You can expect to find three phenotypes in this genetic and all three being cup winners. 24K Gold has rapid growth in veg and can stretch up to the fourth week of flower. Bloom period is 9 to 10 week with large yields and very resinous flowers. Zkittlez Feminized Seeds by The Bakery Seed Co. Zkittlez Feminized Seeds are a cross of Afghan Kush x (Grapefruit x Grape Ape). A great Indica dominant hybrid that causes a well balanced cerebral effect. With a flowering period of 60 to 65 days, you can expect an indoor harvest of 600g/m2 and outdoor harvest of around 700g/m2. A great display of resin with faint purple hues late in the flowering period. Aromas of deep berry and grape. SGROG method works great with this genetic. A great addition to The Bakeries ever-growing in-house collection. Fruit Tree Feminized Seeds by The Bakery Seed Co. Fruit Tree Feminized Seeds by the Bakery Seed Co are at the forefront of the Bakeries recipes. These Fruit Tree Seeds are very stable genetics as well as yielding a minimum of 550g/m2. A 70 day flower period indoors and displays a great terpene profile both indoors and outdoors too, all though the green house is optimal for this strain. This is a Sativa dominant breed tested at 19% THC with great citrus aromas late in flower. This is another great addition to the Bakery Seed Co’s Feminized range. I just started germination today 29th of June by placing them in the water for 24 hours. 30th of June: I placed them between damp paper and plates they started germinating except Fruit tree seed did not want to sink before in the water and no sign of germinating yet between the paper. I just cut a bit it's shell because it might be too hard for the sprout to break it and come out. Rest of them are OK spouts are out and constantly growing. I aim to plant them tomorrow if the Fruit Tree grows a bit more. 1st of July: I planted 3 of them except Fruit Tree. I will wait several days more to show some sign of life and if will not then I will plant the other strain. It has been given as a gift seed with my previous order. It may be older so need more time to start its life. The seedling stage starts so just keep the humidity high, no ventilation at all always spray the room. Day 3: It seems that Fruit tree seed is not viable so I ordered the other one. Probably it is old seed. As it comes I will straight germinate to be planted asap. 2 of them are out Zkittlez and 24 K Gold. Blue Sherbet S1 still not out hopefully by tomorrow. I will spray them tonight and a closed all the holes on the tent to keep the humidity high. Day 5: Nice one! Zkittlez and 24K nicely out! Blue Sherbet S1 is coming also by tomorrow it will be out properly. I received a new Fruit tree seed and started germinating to be able to plant it asap. Watering around 5ml a day per plant. 24 hours LED light schedule no off. 2 x 60W so 30 W per plant. They love it! Day 5: Fruit tree started germinating I think I can plant on Sunday. It will be 1 week back but it is alright. Blue Sherbet S1 is growing also. Zkittlez and 24K Gold are nicely developing. Day 9: All of them out!!!! Blue Sherbet S1 looks so different due to its Sativa domination. Humidity is high 90% over, and 24/7 light schedule with 2x 60 W 30 each plant, and no ventilation and fertilization at this stage. They are so cute, so fragile....

So we're at flower stage. This girl is growing really well. She's almost as big as the white widow. Her stem system looks really good. I have no complains. I'm adding @advancednutrients to my grow. I gave her a feeding today (36) of just voodoo juice and Nirvana and pH to 5.9. I'll keep you guys posted during the week. Thanks to all the people that answer my questions especially @spinnergrow. He's an educated guy. Day 37..... Gave her a feeding today of 2l with nutrients. I also gave her a haircut. I've been getting different answers about defoliating autos. So there you go I tried it. We'll see what happens. Day 38....not much to say about today but it doesn't seem like the defoliation harmed her. Last day of first week in flower day 42......thus plant is going to be a monster. I love it😁. I got some explosive growth with the last few days. She's growing really fast and nice.

Scary mutations - yes, but I was once again allowed to learn and suffer so much... ;-)) But patience and love pay off. I can tell you that much. 😁 At the end of the third week, I decided to prune the two bulkier phenotypes. Finally, I wanted to make sure that the plant canopy of all 4 would end up as homogeneous as possible in the flowering.
