Hello, this is my first grow diary (series of 3). You can check out My other currently running grows! Lowpak's Malasana Cookies: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/171937-grow-journal-by-lowpak Lowpak's Kimbo Kush: https://growdiaries.com/diaries/171990-grow-journal-by-lowpak Flowering week 9: Last week. Flush. Daily check for mold. I think it is quite possible that they will go down earlier than 63 days, because of huge dense buds. Flo56 - Watered with clean water, pH 6.3 Temp.: 29 °C.

week 3 flower is going great. I increased my UVA lights to 8 hrs on. Gsc and Blueberry have decent bud-lets already on day 17. OG kush has preflowers. waiting on Blueberry muffin to show pre fowers should be soon. At the end of week 3 GSC and Blueberry are doing the best and starting to get more trichomes. Im waiting on OG kush And Blueberry Muffin to really get going!

Week 7 - day 43 Well what can I say these girls have made it to week 7 and are now on 12/12 for flowering, yes that also includes the zkittlez OG auto and my little babies at the front, I wanna see how they do on 12/12 for the rest of there growth 😁 overall each of them look amazingly healthy, nice thick stem, pistils already showing on a few and the auto has blown up with pistils! I can already tell these genetics are set to high standards! There now starting the stretch phase and hopefully in the next couple of weeks we will start noticing some beautiful buds 😍 I have started feeding 2litres every 2-4 days depending, I'm really starting to connect with my girls and know exactly when they need feeding, I have tried to nurture them as best I can! And hopefully this will all pay off 😃 Humidity has been a little high lately, will try my best to lower this over the weekend, added a dehumidifier into the tent which really helps, the humidity seems to only rise when lights off, lights on it sites between 50-60% Going to book in some free time at the weekend to really do a nice defoliation on these, don't want to do too much though but definitely removing some of the fan leaves and popcorn sites on the lower parts of the plant 😎 the jungle has really taken shape now, I will try to keep you all updated! Thanks for tuning in and as always happy growing!! 180319 - well I did a little defoliation at the bottom of the plants to allow for better air circulation below and to get rid of popcorn branches and shaded fan leaves. I have also added the scrog net back and I am now arranging flower sites. Laughing buddhas took several days before showing any pistils but they are now coming through nicely which means it knows to flower!!! 😂 The humidity is still an issue when lights are off, the reason being is because the tent is getting too cold and therefore the humidity raises - for payday I will purchase a small portable heater and hopefully make room for it in the tent! I also left my girls unwatered for 4 days on purpose, this is the longest I have waited without watering but there were some springtail pests in the soil, although these don't do much harm to the plants I wanted to rid them as soon as possible and the easiest way is to dry out the environment as water and moisture is what they are attracted to. Looking forward to the next 2 months of flower!!!

11.29- the 4x4 went up yesterday with a brew new LED. all plants are happy since overnight, watered this morning. Older GDP id's showing me purple hues on sugar leaves, along with cannibalizing its lower fan leaves. The diary GDP is doing great as well, we are in the 5th week of flower, could not be happier. May brew a P K tea for the 5gal just to get it to end of flower, but no more dry nutes to either plant. The main diary plant is packing on weight, continuing to move leaves off of bud sites and tucking them under. All in all things are good, temp is very dropped in the tent (68f-74f) and RH is steady 35%-45%. More pictures to come as I will be going to the garage often to monitor environment. Thanks for reading all, it means a lot! Happy growing! 12.2-5gal is doing amazing. Deficiencies showing and buds/sugar leaves changing color to a purple hue. Quite cold in that tent at night, hovering around 61f. Minor defoliation performed 12.1 to remove some sickly leaves and provide light to lower canopy. Trichomes are appearing everywhere also. Time to stop thinking I'm doing something wrong and enjoy what this plant is providing. Next watering will help the plant get to the finish line for sure. *3gal not tracked on diary stats, but harvesting 12.7-12.9 on the full moon. Trichome check shows 50/50 clear to milky. Darkness will ensue 3-4 days before chop...i will also only be giving one more watering to the 3 gal of un PH'd water. Water for both again 12.3. Thank you for reading, please follow and visit my Instagram page! 12.4-last update to the week, plants were watered last night until very minor run off to the 5gal. Gave the 3 gal 1/2gal bottom watering but pot is still light. End is near, 3gal harvest officially on 12.8 in the AM. Gave the 5 gal some banana juice for P K, maybe this will help the obvious nutrient deficiencies this early yet in flower. Going to let this plant ride past the 8th week of flower to ensure its reached it's full potential. It's covered in trichomes though already and pulling from its leaves. I cant wait for the new pics tomorrow morning, start of the new week. Thanks for following along!

What up Fam, weekly updates on these lovely ladies. This week it's been warm and such a bad time for my AC to go out but overall temps been in the mid it's inside the tent and the plants seem to not mind at all. They're still getting fed 16oz daily. I'd say from the looks, maybe 2-3 more weeks until harvest. Happy Growing

I started feeding liquid nutrients this week. Although I’m using Nature’s Living Soil Super Soil Autoflower Concentrate mixed with Fox Farm Ocean Forest—so technically I could water only until harvest—I decided to begin liquid feeding in Week 3 at half the recommended dose. I also have a Tray2Grow Autopot system for automatic bottom feeding, but I haven’t activated it yet. When using liquid nutrients via top feeding, I’d need to turn the Autopot system off and wait until the plants absorb all the water in the tray before feeding from the top. Afterward, I’d have to manually turn the system back on. That seems like a hassle compared to just hand-watering and feeding. I could technically add the liquid nutrients to the Autopot reservoir, but that somewhat defeats the purpose of the system. The tank holds 25 gallons—enough to last a few weeks—but if I want to change or rotate nutrients weekly, I’d have to dump the remaining water and remix the solution each time. If I wanted to feed nutrients every other watering, I’d be changing out the tank every 3 days. Plus, liquid nutrients can cause buildup, so I’d need to clean the reservoir and all the tubing regularly. For now, I’ll stick with hand-watering and top feeding. I’ll only switch to the Autopot system if I need to leave town.

No noticeable comment for this week all growing and forming very well we are into the bulking faze well and truly. Did a slight defoliation today just to open up some more sites and get rid of sites that wouldn’t produce anything. They are all progressing well and looking forward to the next 3/4 weeks to show where they end up and how swollen they get !

Hi everyone 🤗. On 07/23/20 the time intervals of the lights were changed to 12/12 h :-). Now you have some time left to grow in the network that has been installed. This time I deliberately gave less vegi phase because they grew a lot after the time change in the last run 😅. You will still get Canna Aqua Vega A + B until the correct flower production begins, after which a complete water change will be made (as every 14-18 days). From then on she gets Canna Aqua Flores A + B and Canna Boost 😃. I am very excited to see how the gelato from Zamnesia to Aero develops, because I have always grown this genetic on Soil :-). Otherwise, they look beautiful, and all parameters except the water temperature are in the optimal range. Since the grow cooler for the 0.8 system is unfortunately too big and I don't see any problems with the 23-24 degrees water temperatures, I won't need a water cooler for the time being. I hope you enjoy the new update, stay healthy alle and let it grow 🌱 You can buy This Strain at : www.Zamnesia.com ☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼☝️🏼 Strain Gelato clone from mother (Zamnesia ) ☝️ Genetics: Wedding Cake x Gelato x Gelato 33 👍 Vega lamp: 2 x Todogrow LED CXB3590 COB 55 W 1 x Sanlight S2W 62 W 💡 Flower lamp : 2 x Todogrow LED CXB3590 COB 55 W 1 x Sanlight S2W 62 W 💡 ☝️ Grow Aero System : Growtool 0.8 ☝️ Fertilizer: Canna Aqua Vega A + B , Canna Aqua Flores A + B , Rizotonic, Cannazym, CANNA Boost, Pk 13/14, Canna Cal / Mag, Canna Ph - Grow, Canna Ph-Bloom ☝️🌱 Water: Osmosis water mixed with normal water (24 hours stale that the chlorine evaporates) to 0.2 EG.

Finally the Outdoor season is here.... Because of the regulations here up north, We , the growers have to be very careful, its very risky. But if you are wise and like being out in the wild a bit off, the nordic countries is full of greenspace. The tricky part is to find god spots as near to home as possible. Around Stockholm there is over 1000 islands. Many without any inhabitants.... I have chosen a couple, This diary is from one of the Islands,,,, A rocky steep and very uninviting place.... Close to everything... but almost never visited. It alsa have a history from Viking age that Estonian Pirates were slaughtered there by the Vikings in the year 700.... And since that day,,, their ghosts haunt the island, and never rest. Not afraid of this things.... But i am glad it keep more people away. This diary is about the 3 Mimosas. 3 out of 19 different cultivars i got on the island, I chosed these ones because they seam to thrive best so far. Started a bit early,,, and some genetics didnt manage the cold start to well. But Mimosa Auto was one of them who did. All planted in wild soil, mixed with a bit plantsoil with 5% Kow-shit(just a little). The rest i leave to mother-Nature. The Island Spirit Guardian, The Sea-Eagle Will watch it over. ThanX

Hello World 🌎 ☺️ 🤗!!! She sprouted successfully in her Jiffy Pellet.. Added nothing to the H20...Plain Water! After she was about 2cm, I transferred her directly into her final home...which is a 15L Fabric Pot filled with Living Soil...Since she will be growing outdoors.. After the transfer.. Gave her a good feeding of plain H20 but made sure not to drown her though..

Week 22 of our painful result on the mothers. Reveg. Is full on and the plants are all trying desperately to figure out how to flower again. A couple days ago I was resolved to the fact that this cycle of mothers was not going to be anywhere near our acceptable standards for a high quality bud harvest. We lamented and cried a little…. Then we got ridiculously high to numb the pain…. And then I had a brilliant thought! The whole purpose has been to pollinate clones this whole time. Now that our stable of clones are well into rooting and reveg. We can simply use the mothers for breeding instead and salvage a harvest of high quality buds with the clones! It’s not an ideal situation and will result in less smokable buds but that said (and as per the outdoor photos), quantity won’t be a problem this year as usual😉. I figure a week or two to see what happens with em and we’ll commence the sperm spray😎. We’ve also taken some additional steps and commenced with impregnating the Spliff strawberry on a couple of select branches. This plant is proving a beauty as expected - even despite a little fasciation she’s a monster🤩🤩. Method - we placed some pollen into a brown paper bag (both some SOG in one and some 707 in another. - we marked 2 branches with zip ties to keep track of which pollen is where. - we wrapped the branches in each bag and twisty tied it closed to the stem base for about 12 hours. - after remove the bags and to prevent further pollination on the rest of the plant we sprayed down the pollinated branches and then the entire plant with a light mist of water. When ur outdoors this isn’t perfect science and there will be some additional seed that pops out elsewhere. Regardless, it’s a guarantee the 707 is viable but I’m none too sure about the Skywalker stuff. It may have been subjected to moisture while in storage and could be inert at this point. No telln for a few weeks🤞. The dutchy system, despite significant time to set up has been better than expected - all the plants are happy, added a Skywalker clone to the mix for flowering as well. They seem to be taking to the Druid nutes just fine. Great system and she’s pretty much on cruise control right now👌. All told - the pollen chuck is not yet a complete failure. We’re definitely gonna have some cross beans - they only question that remains is how many different strains. Thanks again for hanging with the longest grow ever👍👊. Background/Repetitive Nonsense These plants will be the two mothers this growing season that will be utilized for stage 2 of the pollen chucking project. We’ll be taking clones and stressing the genetics for some fem. pollen using colloidal silver. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel with landrace genetics, we’re effectively skipping initial hybrid crossing and stabilization, going straight to the polyhybrid mix. I call it the shotgun approach to selective, unvetted and amateur breeding on a micro scale😉. These 2 parent strains will form the basis for 8-10 different F1 polyhybrid combinations and a further S1 back cross of each of the mothers. Not only should we be able to preserve the genetics for both mothers in feminized form but we’ll also be running an entire family of new hybrids after seeding out clones from each on the initial lineup of this summers photoperiods. Method is pretty simple here; once we’ve got our pollen off the two mothers we’ll be clipp’n clones on 4 select strains that have proven results from various respected breeders. We’ll be using those for pollination purposes in what is expected to be a 10 plant recirculating Dutch bucket hydro system. ***Update*** The feminization process didn’t take at all with the strawberry or the Skywalker so it’ll be reg. Seed crosses with only Skywalker and some other 707 Headband that we have in the vault. ********* Strain details: Parent strains for self pollination - Skywalker Kush by Reserva Privada Classic kush effects and earthy aroma. The strong kush element of this cultivar will compliment any cross. - Spliffs Strawberry by Spliff Seeds Incredible mix of flavourful terpenes and hard hitting high THC. She’s got some Herer as well as some Diesel in ‘er so an obvious choice for any cross as well. ***UPDATE*** The strawberry had to come out of this breeding run to wait for a better mother that hasn’t been attacked by aphids. It’s been a tough battle this season and we’ve had to make a couple of heartbreaking sacrifices already. Parent Strains for cross pollination ***UPDATE*** We added another 2 strains to the mix just in case we need to spot swap for some more variety. - Ghost Train by AMS Seeds A cross of Alien OG x Ghost Train Haze. Never tried the strain but I’ve heard only good things. This one might be worth mixing with the Strawberry so we’ll see how it goes. ***UPDATE*** Sadly - the ghost train turned out to be an auto so cloning her out as part of the breeding project is a no-go. Really disappointed about this but at least we still have a ready backup strain on the lost coast og to take her place. - Boogie Nights by AMS Seeds A cross of Kalijah, aka afghani/skunk/diesel/blue heaven X Juanita, aka NYC Diesel/Reina Madre). No idea here so naturally I’m interested😉. ************** - Lost Coast OG by Emerald Triangle Pakistani Kush x Lemon Thai x Chemdawg #4. Essentially a classic, west coast combo of landrace kush genetics that Cali is famous for, mixed with hard hitting Chemdawg #4. ***UPDATE*** The Lost Coast is a winner of a plant. Still outdoors and in veg. Looks like it’s recovered from the aphid attack. Might consider trying to take another cut of this and just rooting it in a pot for pollination. At this point, what the hell and if we could salvage anything it would be a positive. ***** - Spliffs Blueberry by Spliff Seeds (Chocolate Thai x Afghani #1 x Highland Oaxaca) x Northern Lighhts Special. Only 1 bean of this left and the whole purpose is to blend the best of Spliffs Berry strains as a tribute. Awesome breeder and they’ve been very kind to us over the years. - Northern Light by Royal Queen Seeds NL means nuff said. A combo of 11 unknown strains believed to originate from the west coast of North America. This cultivar is a great take on these classic genetics and a perfect compliment to just about any cross. A biased fave of ours.👍 - White Widow by Seedsman Brazilian Sativa x South Indian Indica. This classic strain has been unluckily elusive for us the last couple years. We know the quality of seedsmans version of this cultivar having grown it in the past. Sadly, a very strong performer that never made it to harvest due to an uncontrollable aphid infestation. And we’re only at step 1.... still gonna need an assist with pheno hunting all of the crosses so if anyone’s interested in running the testers (when we finally get to that point) just let me know👍😎. Gonna be a Dope ass summer project and can’t wait to see it in full swing🤟. Thanks for stopp’n in y’all👊
