Día 22 de Vegetación (día 27 desde la germinación) Estoy contento con el progreso de mis plantas. Las riego con fertilizantes de BAC, micorizas de Great White y CalMag de Biobizz para estabilizar el agua de osmosis inversa. También he elevado las macetas para evitar que las plantas se espigen. Día 26 de Vegetación (día 31 desde la germinación) Las plantas han crecido de forma significativa en estos 4 días. La planta ya está desarrollando flores, lo que indica que estamos en la etapa de prefloración. La próxima semana, cambiaremos de alimentación para adaptarnos a la etapa más difícil, la floración. Día 27 de Vegetación Claramente nuestas Tropicanna Poision XL AUTO de Sweet Seeds estan ya preparando la floración. El olor ya es mas intenso.

Week 9 and 4th of flower! And holy 👽, we're getting there fast! My girls are growing well and they seem to be taking the nutrients reeeeally well! So once again I'm increasing the strength of Silver PK and White monster! I also noticed something quite interesting... it's only the 4th week of flower and some trichomes are turning amber! That should not be happening unless the lights are too close to the plant or perhaps, this girl is just fast and I should chop her soon? 😱 No idea. I'll probably around and see what people think and if I should do it or not. I trimmed some leaves and for the first time in like ever I did not touch the LST! Anyway, see you all next week! 👋

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced. I’ll let this version run for a week before adding anything. 👀👀👀👀👀👀 Observations and changes 👀👀👀👀👀👀 27.10.25 VW27 noticed some min burnt tips so I decreased Calcium Nitrate 45 to → 40g, decided to add two more elements micros and Epsom salts just to make sure they got everything, Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g, Epsom salts: 8 g 28.10.25 VW27 she seems devoid of any deficiencies, seems ready for the flip to 12/12 02.11.25 VW27 girl is looking good so I decided to stop making daily videos and do a standard once a week update. 09.11.25 aVW28 7 days since flip,stretch in full swing, first pistils showing, leaf color deep and healthy. Slight tip burn early week → gone after pH stabilized.

Der Duft lies etwas nach, die Luftfeuchtigkeit stieg an. Ende. Der Anbau dauerte nur 83 Tage vom Samen bis zur Ernte der reifen Blüten. Auto Elephant ist leider in der Hitze bei über 37 Grad Mitte der dritten Woche in die Blüte gegangen. Ich werde sie nächstes Jahr wieder anbauen und auf stabileres und milderes Klima in der Vegetation hoffen. Auch der sehr stickstoffreiche Schwarzkohlekompost hat ihr Probleme bereitet, so vermute ich. Er eignet sich wohl besser für photoperiodische Sorten als für Autoflower Genetik. Ich werde den Kompost beim nächsten Mal anpassen müssen. Die Blüten hängen zum Trocknen. Ich melde mich bald mit dem Ergebnis und in ein paar Wochen mit einem Vape Bericht. Es ist meine zweite Elephantendame und soviel kann ich schon jetzt sagen: Bombe! Super harzig, extrem lecker. Ein High, wie als wenn du auf einem Elephanten sitzend durch die Wolken schwebst und dabei einen Blick auf die Dinge bekommst, die dir ansonsten verborgen blieben. Ein High wie damals beim ersten Mal. ;-) 🍌😄 Danke für‘s vorbeischauen. Bis demnächst. 🐘🌱🌵🔥

Wow. She grew 26cm this week. Clearly likes her new 10 litre fabric pot. From what I've seen of the pots so far I like them. She's making loads of flower sites, also note the stem abuse I've administered this week 😂 I'm trying to stress the ol' girl out a bit. No idea if it working but its all data in the memory bank! 💪 EDIT: Light settings updated to reflect current tent lighting......

SUNDAY 4/28: I plucked off some dead leaves and did some leaf-tucking. All 4 CC's are looking good and the big one is really starting to bud up now.👍 Daytime temps are still hovering around 87-90f, but I've got them sitting in 70-72f temps for 6 hours of darkness now.😁 I did a little video today and I'll take a few "glamour shots" tomorrow. MONDAY: Today I see a bunch of crispy leaves on one of the smaller ones..guess I phuktup the PH again because they are getting fed everything they need. I douched everybody with 1/3 gallon including some boomerang, calimag, bembe, bud candy, and terpinator. No time for glamour shots... TUESDAY: Not much time for gardening today..changed out carbon filters and cleaned out the evap cooler basins. WEDNESDAY: I took some photos after doing a little training on a few of them. I have some sort of contagion in the big tent..leaves suddenly getting brown and crispy overnight on a few plants. THURSDAY: The 'contagion' seems to be spreading through the garden... I'm thinking maybe I completely PHuktup the ph when I added silica last time and didn't correct it?? Not sure...but it's sad..they're all gonna be less than photogenic for the finish...😟 FRIDAY: I plucked some dead leaves and misted everybody with perfectly PH adjusted spring water and increased airflow in the tent. Also decreased the dehumidifier to 45% RH. So far, the biggest one is the least affected. SATURDAY: I fed them all today and started the big one on Cha Ching.

Most ladies are showing signs of flowering so today I will start counting the weeks. Here u can also see my mutant/special ladies. They germinated a bit different from the others. Day 3 of flower is showing some major progress‼️🙌🏽 I did NOT top any of these mutated plants. I only removed some very ugly growing leaves. So everything u see on them is done by mother nature.

Oh cindy.... be mine ! They're all doing great , pushing out these typical sativa plant leafs, thin, long, real nice. this plant is squat but it got flipped a few days ago so lets see how it does with the stretch. Smell is getting serious by now, i dont know how that's going to work when i'm in the full flower probably i'll need a third extractor and a third carbon filter... the noise on these fans is insane though at 150W each it's not easy to stay in the room with the buzzing sound .... Did some training on these, two defoliations that "s a total of three so far. Funniest thing happened : i mixed my specialised micro (cal mag + "rare micro" like boron, mobi, etc) which is green powder with the Biotabs Orgatrex which is brown liquid and my feed ended up blue lol i still watered with it, so pray for my plants lol Veg is finally over ! Now it gets interesting ! 🚀

* 20/24 lights (4h/day rest) for 3 days.after that we continued with 24/24. * Add some extra advanced formulations from this week. ⚠️ Stay tuned 👇 🗓️🔜 week 7 --> we'll make a review to the progress of the different strains inside the tent with photos and vids.
