Here we are in week six of flower and not a lot has happen this week other than the usual watering and letting her do her thing. Only trouble this week was updating GoPro had to try a few times. Other than that we got some rain in my home town and collected about 60 gallons that I'm going to use to finish the rest of the grow. Also, got my new AC Infinity CLOUDLINE T4, Quiet Inline Duct Fan System with Temperature and Humidity Controller, 4-Inch. I was really hoping this two plants would finish before the year ended, however, it looks like they got others plans. See you guys next week.

*****DIVINE SEEDS ***** *****OPIUM***** Sponsored grow Week 1 Germination April 6. After starting seeds in moist cotton pads, I put the sprouted seed in seed starting soil. Their 5-gallon air pots ready and waiting for the girl's final home. This week 7-13 consisted of plain ph 6.6-6.9 water only. I gave a capful in the morning and evening. Until the plants are big enough to go outside, I will be using my AC Infinity tent and equipment. Once outside, I will be watering with well water and recharge and any additional fertilizers or amendments will be determined at that time. DIVINE SEEDS ***OPIUM*** Divine Seeds developed Opium as a new champion strain, unprecedently powerful and loaded with unbelievable quantities of resin. Certainly, no average genetic base could be behind such brilliant parameters! Several Afghani Indica landraces, recognized as most potent and resinous, were bred together with a mighty Brazilian Sativa which Opium inherits its bright berry taste from. Then a great deal of work followed aiming for the highest THC level and endurability as well as a branchy structure that would provide maximal yields. Now we can proudly title Opium the best Indica you could dream of growing! Indoors these plants mostly stay mid-height (1.5 m), reaching up to 2.0 m out of doors. Depending on your height limitations, Opium flourishes universally in grow boxes, balconies, green houses and terraces. Due to its Afghani parentage, this strain can stand hot weather if provided enough water and some shadow. Responds well to any training techniques: ScroG and SoG, LST, topping and FIM, supercropping. The start of blooming is marked with a rush of growth, when plants stretch almost 1.4x. Expect heavy colas that often require additional supports. Whilst ripening, Opium gives off a pungent earthy stench with fruity and berry undertones, also a bit of pine. Ready for outdoor harvesting in October. The stoning psychedelic impact of Opium is like being hypnotized (unless you’ve had too much, then it feels more like a blackout). Stone-lovers will appreciate every minute with Opium: its spicy taste immerses your mind into daydreaming, while the body rests flat. Recreation with this psychedelic Indica means silent tripping from one insight to another. Mighty enough to kill chronical pains, Opium is also medically efficient against insomnia, nausea, appetite disorders, muscle spasms, headaches, irritation, fatigue, panic attacks, epilepsy. Best consumed at night time, the effects keep going for up to 4 hours.

~ WEDDING CHEESECAKE FAST FLOWER by FastBuds ~ Well fam, here we go again with another epic strain from FastBuds Fast Flowering stable. After having such tremendous success growing their Gorilla Cookies Fast Flower outdoors last year, I've decided to run another of their fast flowering strains outdoors this year... Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower! The best description of this awesome cultivar comes directly from my friends at FastBuds which is as follows: "A delight for the mind and body: Wedding Cheesecake FF (Fast-Flowering) is a delicious strain that offers XXL yields in a 7-8 weeks flowering cycle. This terpene powerhouse produces loads and loads of mouth-watering vanilla-creamy-cookie-scented terps with hints of citrus and cinnamon. In addition to its delicious aromas, this variety grows very well in both indoor and outdoor setups, yielding up to 650 g/m2 without extra maintenance, making it the ideal strain for beginners as it allows you to maximize yields while minimizing work. This super-fast feminized photoperiod version offers upbeat and energetic yet deeply relaxing effects that are perfect for consumers looking for a heavily focused, motivating, and creative high. It’s the ideal strain for those needing that extra energy boost to start a busy day on the right foot. Wedding Cheesecake FF boasts chunky, large-sized buds with a thick layer of silvery-white resin and bright orange hairs scattered all over: that just screams ‘quality’. The lime-green flowers sparkle with an array of hues ranging from dark to light green, to magenta and purple, and reek of a delicious aroma that’ll remind you of fresh store-bought cheesecake. This is an XXL hybrid that grows extremely tall in height, reaching up to 3m with one huge main cola and multiple long side branches that can withstand enormous yields of up to 650 g/m2 with ease. Wedding Cheesecake FF is extremely resilient to the elements and can be grown in almost every climate as long as you’ve got the space and basics covered, making her an excellent choice for those looking for large-scale harvests with a quick turnaround time without much effort." ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Wedding Cheesecake FF indoors as our weather is still too cold to put her outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 30's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures stay above the mid 40's℉, at which point she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes, and then let the fun begin!🤪💚 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 4/12- Here we go into the third week for the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower and there's nothing but good news to report! This little lady is basically on autopilot for now and all I'm really doing is making sure that I check her daily and water when needed with well water straight from the garden hose! 4/14- All is well with the Wedding Cheesecake FF. Because of the colder nights, her growth is not going to be as rapid right now compared to when nighttime temp's stay above the upper 50's to 60's℉, which is when she should really start to take off! 4/16- It rained yesterday and today, so Mother Nature took care of my watering for me! 4/18- There goes another week on the books for the FastBuds Wedding Cheesecake Fast Flower and I can't wait to see her take off with warmer weather that's not too far away! Hope to see you next week! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Changed out the nutes. Dropped the calmag and the Silica. Using just the Plant Prod MJ bloom. Saskatoon Berry plants are very surprising. One of the plants is a cola top, the other has lots of latteral branching. It may form into a giant arm.

Guten Morgen liebe Freunden, es ist heute das Ende der 4 Woche. Die Pflanzen giesse ich mit ca 2l Wasser, EC wert liegt bei ca 0,9. Der PH Wert liegt bei 6,3. Ich gieße immer so viel das ca 10% drain entsteht da ich mineralisch dünge. Die Triebe die zu hoch wachsen, binde ich immer wieder nach unten damit die nebentriebe genug Licht bekommen. Bei Pflanze 1 beginnt jetzt die vorblüte, Pflanze 2 und 3 zeigen noch keine vorblüte. Ich halte euch wie immer auf dem laufenden, schönen Sonntag und bis nächste woche. :)

The blue dream is going steady maintaining her pace of growth. I gave her a slight flush of pure phd balanced water, She has grown a staggering 10cm in the last week. Her canopy has fully developed and is almost ready for bloom. Rosemary will be added to the substrate in the next few days. She stands at approximately 70cm ta

DAY 21 FLOWERING: Howdy folks. Here we are on day 21 flowering for these willing and healthy Zamnesia ladies. They took no time at all to relish back up again following their defol earlier in the week. I took a fair bit of leaf matter out and also did a little popcorn stripping too. Now it looks as if I never did anything at all. This used to be my dilemma with the debate surrounding defoliation, however , the size and shape of the leaves that were removed, would have been huge and needed a lot of space and airflow to remain healthy alone , never mind flourishing in flower !. Removing those leaves has not stunted the flowering process or halted the stretch period either. The smaller helpers have now become the bigger powerhouses and filled the plants frame with big green spectrum grabbers. I am going to remove some more leaf to allow more airflow and light to get around the multiple bud sites that litter the canopy from every angle but have been shaded and tucked away behind leaves. Getting light on to the stem is a goal too . If light gets there , so can fresh air !. They have all grown a lot this week and containing them is going to be fun as the get buds fattening too. I am considering putting my new light in for a little wider coverage now as I think they will need it possibly. I have a viparspectra p4000 getting Ansy in its box and it wants to get involved.lol The Girl scouts are thriving with so much growth on the #2 that she doesnt know which site to focus on so it going for them all. She has a lot of potential bid sites. #1 is a more natural growth pattern with lots of secondaries wanting g main status. The Amnesia haze had a good strip out to get that huge bushy appearance change , they have all cone back with a vengeance and will be stripped again a little now. The signs of calmag def are still around but I am trying to avoid having to add it in in flowering this run to see how much difference it makes with the feeds I am using. So far no issues with feeding at all and they are only showing a slight tip burn from the strength probably. I am still pulling them lateral each room visit to encourage them to find their own growing space that works for them and so far so good and they are playing ball. They are drinking all of their feed very quickly now so i will have to up the feed times now I think . I am feeding every 3 days with approx 3L each pot . seeing how the 1# Girl scout looked , I think every other day now . Let's see what the next week brings. Be happy growmies.

Jan 15th - soil tests tonight / photos tonight 17th - soil ph is a tad over; 7.2 -7.3 - dinner served at a pH of 6.2 - dinner tonight; 1.5L pH’d water ran through plant first, then fed 3L nutes/water posted above. This flow caused some Run-off, but not enough to properly measure EC value -near max on the tds, but it was the thickest dinner yet. (including molasses) follow-up tonight. 20th - Allowing the soil to dry an xtra day - brewing a compost tea for tomorrow’s dinner. (black willie as well) Then back on schedule - Running 2 Aerated-Teas, staggered between heavy nutrient meals, I hope it nourishes the soil enough that we see a flourish of activity next week… - first tea with bat guano… Resting the banana lol Jan 21, - last day of the week… finally the tent to themselves. Congo & Mystic are gone - tea tonight

420Fastbuds FBT2307 Week 6 What up grow fam week 6 update for these 3 lovely ladies. In the past week they've grown quite a bit not only upwards but filling in nice after the last defoliation. Seeing preflower sites all over which is always a pleasant site. Color on them are a nice green, how ever I did notice some rust spots showing up on a few leafs so I upped the calmag when feeding to 1tsp/gal. It seem to resolve that issue. I also fed a molasses tea this week to help the microbes in the soil allowing the plant easier access to notes needed. All in all Happy Growing
