Going well, plant one continues to outstrip plant two significantly, but it's not as if plant 2 is weaker, if anything is has a better colour of green, I give it a little food, cal mag, and a small bit of the 3 main fox farms, later in the week Topped the biggest plant banner 1, back right corner

Not much to say other than I am quite dissatisfied with my results. But still got 3 weeks left. I'd say my nuggs are fatten up. As wen I gently squeeze them they do seem quite hard.. 3 weeks left on 3 of the mint choc n a little longer on the rouge 1 lol.. Don't have a clue what strain it is but look n smells amazing. Very sweet smell. Happy growing peeps

Yo guys whats up? Here is @cannagrowersiriuz Instagram account If you want so see more updates FRESH stuff just at the IG profile Officially is WEEK #3 counting germination So she is doing great for a photoperiod I think she is very fast Is actually taking on those autos in running. Lets see how she turns out to be So far so good giving them lots of love I have been taking care of them a lot Making sure light is at good distance Plus water is draining and soil is in between wet and dry so I keep pushing those roots Its hard to maintain temp LVL and humidity lvls sometimes at best conditions even tho we try and some other time is steady and that is due to weather in the region we live in because temp around here are very hot. Other than that she is doing awesome Pretty much growing on a LST already And kinda suercrop style She taking it good so she keeps developing Oh yeah we CHANGE pot and now we dont know how we gonna transplant her after but I guess we will figure it out One way or another but as it is We think it can stay there for at least 2 months from now while she fully develops before the huge pot..... I still think the best way of growing them is planting in the final pot at the beggining And so they wont suffer from transplant But I am already on the boat so I keep rowing as it is We go with the flow Blessings brothers I will try My best to keep THESE diaries up to date as fast as I can, since I am a father of an almost one year old boy and he is really energetic So it kinda gets my whole attention daily and consumes most of my days but thank God for him :) So yeah on top of that we have the girls Plus wife and yeah thats life So gotta chill with some buds right Haha thanks a lot brothers Thanks for your support we keep growing Good luck to you all And we hope we get to win something :3

Harvest was easy pulled all fan leafs off five days ago but left bud leafs on top to help drying process and it makes trimming easier as you can see I trim plant as it stands then I cut branches off or the whole plant. Only took 1hr to harvest.

The discoloured images are zoomed in iomages through a magnifying glass. The main plants are very close to harvest =] I will begin flushing I think after 1 bout of Cannazym, with aim to harvest ~10 days after. I will tailor each to the plant's unique stage of life, as they're not all equal EDIT: Thank you to one of my commentors; Ezzjaygrows answered grow question 6 days ago Yeah I see no point in going to 10.. your diary says these are autos tho? They can take more than 12 hours of light. You got multiple strains going or what? I do have multiple strains, but they're all auto. Thank you for the point added to the list of things learned. I knew they could take more than 12h, but I was managing remotely, and I thought anything but 12-12 would require , say, 18h for 6 weeks, 16 for 2, 12hr for flush period (I'm aware had I given them more light it wouldnt have taken 12-13 weeks.) On the positive side, I saved a picture of a "best case" Creme Mandarine bud, and reasoned my way to "Yeah mine will probably be 35% as nice, in quality, yield etc." - Sure, these arent Cup winners, but FUCK ME, did they turn out so much better than i expected. Now why's that?; I humbled myself and lurked Creme Mandarine grows and learned and learned and learned. So thank you 'Ezzjaygrows', and thank you Growdiaries =] Don't worry. My 2nd will be diarie'd too, and this time, I wont be remote managing with literal remote CCTV and PH meters/Moisture meters in the CCTV shot. I lost 2 seeds thanks to the person i delegated minor observational management too, a young plant was let to dry out, harming it later on it life, AND he second guessed me constantly. Tera Vega / PK was missed because he thought he knew better.. Which he does... For outdoor.

She stretchin’ hard and throwin’ out sites 🔥 Got her topped, light defol + lollipopped — airflow’s clean. Might strip a bit more soon if she bulks up. Stackin’ up nice so far… let’s see what she doin’ next 💪🌿

6/28 Week 10 and she is looking fantastic Flush continues, nothing special just one gallon of h20 twice a day. Looking at at least 3 days as tricones still at less than 100% white (@80%) Deficiencies not bad yet, still building some bud 6/29 Looking well, just a bit of CA/MG def showing. Still building Some lights out pics to show off the buds and trics **** We have determined that best practice on coco DTW is to add a low dose of Cal-Mag once a week when in final container. This will satisfy the cation sites as the coco breaks down and avoid mystery CA deficiencies allowing the CocoTek to do its work. 6/30 Just some Bud Pics 7/2 HARVEST DAY TOMORROW!

Quick update on Northern Lights! This week: • Stretching phase complete ✅ • Flower development and bulking up nicely • Fed with Thicker & Bigger Flowers at 1/3 dose • Light defoliation - keeping it wild and natural • Climate control stable with open Tent (door stays open 24/7 as always) • Light leaks during dark period? Don’t care! 😎

Bastante bonita, buen producción a pesar de que le dio botrytis en la copa principal y tuve que cortar por prevención. Un olor muy original, honestamente me gusto mucho, la considero fácil de cultivar con un plan de nutrientes medios.

D71/F19 - 11.25 - Got them all defoliated. Everything is looking open, lots of light for the flowers, lots of room to grow and good airflow. I've got a couple co2 bags hanging in there too now. D75/F24 - 11.29 - Responded well to defoliation. Getting chunky! <3

No4 (feeded wit biobizz) causes a lot of problems and needs a lot of attention...started with Ca deficiency...after this came toxicity of nitrogen and now some Mg deficiency...but the grow is very good. Same strain in Pot No2 in super living soil is doing good...grows a little slower but I have zero work and zero problems there. So far I would prefer living soil in the future. But let see what happens for the rest of the grow. Increasing light to 650-700 micromol/m2/s in week 5 (for No2, No3 and No4) was a bad idea...decreased to 500-550 now the vitality is coming back

Not a bad week at all. Something unexpected caused me to transplant this auto earlier than I normally would have. Her roots were not as long as I would have liked but, what can you do?

I'm impressed with this C4 Auto, from fastbuds this is one of two plants I grew. This plant is a real indoor plant she grows lovely. The other plant is an outdoor plant it's pretty too don't get me wrong but where i thought the outdoors would produce a bigger plant i got the opposite of that, I got a Mutated plant, nice colored bud on here but she continues to mutate even in flowering stage my indoor plant is twice her height and size but love both my C4 Auto from fastbuds. Even if they broke my heart by changing payment policy, I'll never be able to get seeds from fastbuds again so I decided to spray my runt on the outdoors with tiresias mist feminized seed spray..... hopefully I get some pollen and able to pollinate my indoor C4 Auto..

Hello. This is the end of week 1 and the beginning of week 2 of flowering. I turned these girls over to flowering 6 days ago. So I'm hoping to harvest about Aug 20th or so The plants are doing good and filled out their space so I can't see the floor through them.... Time to flower... Showed some pics of my Peyote's. Lost 2 this year to the cold, but repotted more young ones to make up for the loss. The paper wasps are the least aggressive of the wasps. I can walk in and out of the greenhouse and they don't bother me They just fly around my head to get out or come in. They are great for the garden. I see them flying in, loaded with caterpillar parts and other insects parts for their young. They circle like bombers climbing higher and higher to their nests which they grab with a front leg and swing in. They make open nests and under the white caps are the young. The only time they get upset is when a Yellow jacket Wasp or Bald Faced Hornet come to get their young. OK. Be Great. Chuck.

So this should be the last week of veg, as my other plant will be coming down later on today!! I will say this.I know she is definitely ready.It's been a long veg cycle, which is a testament to the growdots, which say only 4-6 weeks before you should flip... Mind you I have reported it's twice now and in both times I added fresh dots.. i just hope she doesn't become too big and overtake the 2.3x2.3x63.. i have a feeling she's going to be a good size plant... As always, big shout out and thank you @Grow4releaf.. I hope everybody's doing well.God bless and happy growing RIPCK
