Hi! This is my first attempt at growing. I've had house plants for years and have cruised the reddit forums. Fingers crossed my green thumb stays consistent. I ended up germinating two ways with these Auto Shark seeds bred by Pyramid Seeds bought from Seedsman. One using the paper towel method and the other using a jiffy pod in a to-go container. To my surprise the impromptu jiffy pod sprouted in two days, whereas the PT method was a dud. The attached photos were taken today (day 6) since sprouting and transferring directly into a 3 gal fabric pot. I fed her two days ago and the soil is still running moist. I'm using a combo of Happy frog with extra perlite with organic earthworm castings. The flowering time for this seed claims six weeks so I'm curious to seed how this goes. I won an Emerald Harvest nutrient kit so I was planning to give her a third of the recommended dosage from their manual on the third watering. (Only watered once so far.) Humidity has jumped between 50 -80% over the course of the first week. I'm still getting used to my the spacebucket I've been constructing over the past few weeks. Which materials are as follows: -Growstar UFO LED 150W -LEDMO 5630 LED Strip, Daylight -120mm USB Fan (Outtake) -120mm High Speed Muffin Fan (Intake)(Had to buy fan controller for it cuz it was so loud/strong) -NAVADEAL Silver Reflective Mylar Film -(5) 5 gallon home depot buckets I bought a soil ph reader but I think its busted. I've bought a few gallons of grocery store water until I can get a ph reader and am just crossing my fingers the plant will be okay.

Darkness was sketchy but glad I did it. Should have cut plant 1 last week. Plant two looks great. Smells like candy. So stoked. Have two mothers and 4 clones ready to go. Clones went into flower earlier then anticipated had to β€œreveg” them then back into flower so they look funky. Might do a flower diary to show.

Autos are just starting to flower the photos are dying for some bigger pots. I've been trying to bring up the overall plant health in general since moving everything to a basement the temps are a little lower than ideal. I had a space heater delivered today and monitored the temps but they only went up to around 78Β°f I want it to be atleast 82Β°f ideally 85. The heater uses 1500 watt and only increased it about 2 or 3Β°. I dont think it's worth the extra cost for such little boost. I'm thinking about returning the heater and throwing a 1000w hps in one of the other tents and see if that will raise it anymore. Especially with LED and co2 higher temps would be very beneficial in veg and early flower but the room is so big its gunna be tough to pull off without killing me on electric costs. Any suggestions are welcome. I know this room does decent in flower but I havnt done much veg work down here and I'll have some autos growing this round so it's important I get it up.

Second week went good. The only issue is humidity goes up quite a bit when lights are off. I'll just add more wind to prevent further issues. What do you guys think? Also, I noticed some top leaves clawing and growing thin, like tacoing upside down. Still long weeks ahead, we'll see how it goes ;) πŸ˜… πŸ˜„ Thank you and happy growing!

You can see the nice healthy colour from the Seaweed foliar spray last week, Will keep that up bi weekly until first flower. Another 12 gal of water for each plant this week as there seems to be no end to this drought. Added blood and bone meal to keep the plant going well into the end of august. And the weekly Silica Foliar spray. https://www.homehardware.ca/en/10kg-4-10-0-bone-meal-fertilizer/p/5025590?page=search-results%20page https://www.homehardware.ca/en/12kg-blood-meal-fertilizer/p/5025554

Hello Diary, The fourth week of flowering is over and we are slowly heading towards the end. Last week I did defoliation, so now there is better air flow through the whole plant. The leaves took on a yellowish color, but the flowers were not affected. They are covered with trichomes that are now visible to the eye and have been given a beautiful dark purple color. The volume of the flowers themselves is smaller than that of her roommates Purple Punch, I hope it will fill up a bit. As you can see in the photos, the Watermelon has a nice shape, it just looks gorgeous to me. In one watering I added Biobizz and that was the last addition of nutrients for her. From now on just flushing. Conditions in the growbox are good, the temperature varies around 25 degrees, while the humidity is around 40%. Now comes the stage when I start observing the development of trichomes through a microscope, it’s a special experience for me, like I’m looking at something from another planet. Here's a brief overview of the week: 11/03/2021 - Day 44. Watering. I didn’t add any nutrients, I just lowered p.H. water at 6.3. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 25.5 degrees and 36% humidity. 13/03/2021 - Day 46. Watering. p.H. I downgraded to 6.4 and added BioBizz as scheduled for the current week. This will be the last addition of nutrients. From now on only clean water. Temp / Humidity on the farm - 26 degrees and 39% humidity. 16/03/2021 - Day 49. Photographing for the end of the seventh week. That’s it for this week, see you soon with a new week. Greetings to everyone who looks at the diary.

Everything looking good still with the Cherry Strudel. Not getting any strong cherry terps yet. I've started supplementing 40ppm of magnesium from MgSo4 to try and see if it helps with the slight fading out, i was suspecting it was from the intensity of the LED, although only 300w i was getting a DLI of around 50 which is way too high. I've raised the LED slightly and applied a light top dress of the Ecothrive Soil Food Bloom. I've added a small clip fan to circulate air around the upper canopy and I've got a 5 inch RVK fan circulating air underneath the canopy.

And here we are at the harvest of our second Jet Fuel, a beauty with a jaunty look, flowers with large calyxes, gassy smell is Jet Fuel by Zamnesia. ** Remember that for all the strains we have at least two plants, one left to grow straight and one worked with the techniques. This is the plant left to grow without the use of techniques to see the other go to the previous week. The trichomes said cut me: it is a sativa predominance of leather we want to preserve the energizing effect. So guys not too much amber on the sativas I recommend otherwise you transform them into indicas. I see enough at least for my tastes and with respect to the strain, always evaluate not only based on your tastes based on the strain. Don't let the amber rule influence you too much we like to talk about harvest window and therefore we have mostly milky / coudy, some transparent and a good amount of amber as well. Technique used // This plant was left to grow free and beautiful with some cleaning at the bottom and some leaves but at the right time. Better with techniques or normal? This time we have two phenotypes similar in appearance and different in terpene profile, the plant left to grow straight seems to be a little better but they are really very similar. Flower quality // From one to 10 stars 9. The plant has resined very well on all sides, it is quite mature, I am satisfied with the color and I harvest it. Buds washed and cleaned as Lukas explains very well on the Zamnesia website, go and read and study the topics in depth, often it is necessary not to act superficially guys! Check the article in your language // https://www.zamnesia.io/it/guida-growing-cannabis/333-lavaggio-delle-ceme Fertilizers // I am very happy with how I managed to unload the plant that at a certain point before going to flush was fed for a few days only with additives and then went to flush and we are very very well discolored, I predict a very tasty flower, grown organic and flushed successfully, the flavor and taste will be epic. All the fertilizers and additives of Plagron in the green / 100% organic version have fully satisfied me. Choose your soil based on your style and calculate the sheet on the website www.plagron.com - Brother if you are stubborn use additives listen every now and then....and then come and tell me. Fertilizers on the other hand are found in convenient all-inclusive packages on the Zamnesia website. Great strain, I found a citrus/sour pheno and a very gassy one ---- https://www.zamnesia.io/en/11258-zamnesia-jet-fuel-semi.html Zamnesia Description // Jet Fuel (also known as G6, Jet Fuel OG and G6 Kush) is a modern hybrid rich in THC and terpenes with a diesel aroma. Originally created in Colorado by crossing Diesel with Aspen OG, this 60% sativa-dominant hybrid is a must-have for any smoker who enjoys an uplifting and energizing high. Now, thanks to the hard work of our breeders, the original Jet Fuel is even easier to grow at home. Order your seeds, plant them in soil and enjoy their rapid growth. After just 9-10 weeks of flowering, you can expect a generous harvest of top-shelf sativa buds! Jet Fuel produces large buds that contain high levels of terpenes and up to 22% THC. True to its name, Jet Fuel has a pungent diesel aroma, with similar flavors. Trained noses and palates will also detect hints of earth, citrus, and pine. Thanks to its potent THC content, Jet Fuel can deliver a very powerful effect after just one hit, making it perfect for social settings, creativity, and daytime use. After an initial burst of energy that increases focus, Jet Fuel's effects tend to settle, leaving users in a dreamy, positive state. Music and Frequencies // For about 4-6 hours a day, my plants listen to 432Hz frequencies that are specifically designed for their well-being, and sometimes a bit of black music to give them that buzz that only music can provide. www.radionula.com All the best that mother nature has to offer is at ---- www.zamnesia.com

Flowering day 74 since time switch to 12/12 h. Hey guys :-) Finally the time has come . The lady was harvested and hung upside down in the dry tent 😍. Before that, she stood in the drying tent in complete darkness for 2 days and the large leaves were removed. The small leaves stay attached during the drying process so that they protect the buds and allow them to dry more slowly and evenly :-) . In the dry tent, the temperature is 18-19.5 degrees and the humidity is 54-58% πŸ‘. In this environment they are now allowed to hang for 10-14 days before they are fine-tuned and trimmed clean by hand. then after trimming they come to ferment for 6-12 weeks in dark jars with bobeda packs 62% to keep the perfect humidity. After a few weeks, the Boveda packs 58% are used so that they can slowly dry out :-) . Of course there is one last update after trimming. Until then, I wish you a lot of fun with the update.

I have harvested this planet but there was a problem one of my six inch fans stopped working so two bud stems had two small peach fuzz spot of white mould. So I chopped half the planet off with garden secateurs and disposed of straight away, and after inspecting the over half of the plant finding no evidence of mould I washed with warm water. It is now in quarantine drying in my shed. That was the reason I haven't taken pictures in case my shed gets broken into πŸ˜‚ so until next time ✌️ out my fellow Growmies and all going well I should have a very small amount of weed for dry weight and smoke review

Overall, I am extremely happy with the genetics of the Auto Euforia and the general success of the grow. I always like to reflect on mistakes I have made, so let me lay them out here: I overlit the plant during veg, contributing to it's bushy nature. It grew well but this would be a waste of electricity if I was growing more commercially. During the last week of flower, my region of Ontario was hit with tons of rain and humidity. I took some steps to increase circulation of dehumidified air, but lowering 95rh to 65-70rh is still insufficient and I lost some control of the environment. The awful result was the start of mold in some select areas, particularly in the fattest buds and where leaves were cut away and petioles remained. This issue is not due to Dutch Passions great genetics, and is entirely due to a combination of an unseasonable environment and my own overconfidence. This mold was never clearly apparent on the outside of the buds, but I found it will trichomes scouting under magnification. This forced me to speed up the harvest and drying process. It also means that I have had to carefully grade the buds into those safe for smoking and vaping, those mold free but needing a second examination (will be rosin pressed), and those close enough to spots of mold to be only for for edibles. Any moldy bud was of course cut away and will be disposed of. Nevertheless, I have many ounces of fantastic buds, and will be making some nice pressed rosin based 510 cartridges. I will edit the harvest post with more information after the cure, and showing the various processing I will be doing. Happy growing! 🌱
