This week they really exploded and all new growth is lush and green so they seemed to have settled very well after the composttea. The grape&cream #1 & #2 are starting to catch up to #3 as ive been bending and topping #3 a little more. Due to the blumats keeping their soil moist ive just put in about 200ml of composttea in each pot. All cuttings have rooted so far with just some pokon run of the mill cloning powder so thats a good thing to keep in mind. As we head into week 4 ive seen the possibility to do some defoliation and supercropping to try to get a bit of an even canopy. Keep you posted!

**** Week 13 growth - February 27 to March 5, 2021 - Week 4 Flower ***** These girls are looking a little more different as we get further in flower. Pheno 1 is starting to swell more this week and here leaves are a nice rich green colour. Pheno 2 on the other hand has lighter leaf colour but is reacting less favourable to the amount of nitrogen and clawing down at the end of the week. It could be that she is also reacting worse to the increased light intensity this week. The frost production on Pheno 1 is also coming out more now. These two girls seems a little more reactionary to nutrient levels. Light intensity increased this week. Pushed up to 525 watts and then to 550 watts at the end of the week. This got the a little hot by the end of the week though. Working with a new light and finding the sweet spots takes a run or two. Learning how the girls grow anyway so the whole run is a lot of learning......its all good😀 Nutrients were pushed a little at the end of last week and the start of this week so backing off a bit more again. Given that they were pushed with light intensity they started showing some signs of nutrient issues. It’s good though as there is reaction time and back off to plain water feed for a couple of days at the end of the week and into week 5. Week 5 is going to be the start of the last stage of flower feed and work with that for two weeks, then stop feeding at the end of week 6........the plan so far anyway. Little more detail....... Feb 27/21 - Day 22 - big feed day - all IPP line plus silica @ 1ml, CalMag @ 1ml, Rezin @ 1.5ml, enzymes @ 1.5ml - 1650ppm and 6.1pH - 4L Feb 28/21 - Day23 - Microbe day but also added some CalMag - Natures Candy @ 1.5ml, Recharge @ 1/2 tsp/gal, Magnifical @ 1.5ml, Micro @ 1ml, Bloom 1.5ml, Terpinator @ 2ml - 950 ppm and 6.0pH - 3L - leaf colour almost looks light today. Mar 1/21 - Day 24 - dry out day. Mar 2/21 - Day 25 - plain water - 300ppm and 6.1 ph - 4L - light power pushed up to 550 watts today. - (too much from 16” to 20”........note!!) Mar 3/21 - Day 26 - plain water with two suppliiments - Terpinator @ 3ml, Rezin @ 2ml. - 525ppm & 6.0pH - 4L - stripped some leaves today......sticky in the middle😃😃👍👍 Mar 4/21 - Day 27 - no water added today - light power reduced today 450 watts. - been going too hard with intensity. Seeing leaf curl on other girls in the tent. - joys of diagnosing cannabis😂 - starting with backing off light and reduce ppm going in but not the ml👍 Mar 5/21 - Day 28 - hit with microbes again to help with stresses. - recharge @ 1 tsp/gal, Nature’s Candy @ 1.5ml - 375ppm and 6.0pH - 3L Moving right along we are through 4 weeks now and moving past the middle of flower.

Esta semana veniamos notando el strech, y ahora notamos como se forma el cogollo. Piden bastante calmag, lo cual aun no ando fino del todo. Pero como no conozco la genetica voy de menos a mas. Tratamos de mantener una temperatura no mayor a 27 y una humedad de entre 50-60. Estoy regando cada 2 dias, y todo va muy bien. Ahora comenzamos a fertilizar de a poco. Trato de meter en la mezcla calmag (0,4) sensi (1.0-1.2) y luego aditivos 2 ml x litro. Y siempre mido run off, trato de regar en base al drenaje, una relacion entre el input y runoff. Seguimos aprendiendo y eso es lo que mas me interesa.

1.I had 3 pop 18 hours right away from floating in the water. 2. 2 were in a paper towel that did nothing so far after 18 hours. 3. Placed paper towel seeds in water for a few hours to see if we can get them popped. 4. 2 seeds are germed and ready to go, have been planted. One in fox farms happy frog and one in a riot rooter as an experiment. We shall see who comes about first. Doing 12-16 hours of light. 5. After 48 hours, all 5 have popped and 2 of them are already breaking the soil with their first 2 leaves. Let's go! 6. Day 3 - 72 hours later - 2 of the seeds have sprouted their first 2 leaves and are above the soil! *excitement ensues* 7. Day 3 (continued) UH OH! I just realized my paper towel doesn't have a seed in it. I checked on the floor and found it, the taproot has gone back inside the seed, I'm worried I may have killed it. I planted it in the Root Riot anyway and I'm hoping for the best. :/ 8. Day 3 (continued) continuing 18-6 light.

👋🏻 All growing well! I have let them grow naturally this week without much interference. I have been rotating the pots every few days and have also added another lower fan to help with airflow. Today I added some sticks to help open the canopy and I plan over the next week to start securing some branches down with wire along with some light defoliation. ✌️🌱☘️

First week went swell, germination was just fine only took 3 days, the Tricross popped leaves first the Muchacha F5 popped a day or so later. So far they are doing fine now I know what to look for and do with these autos so hopefully I'll be done in 2.5 months will keep updating as I go! BTW I am trying the Dynomyco inocculant on these ones and I will be topping and stretching when the time comes thanks again!

Hi Gromies, well sometimes I can be my own worst enemy seems I defoliated ( actually I'll blame the apprentice Urban grow cat 😺) He defoliated a little to much, it's hard to get good help these days! Anyway she got a bit of light burn directly under light bulb area. A mix of to much defoliation & I also turned light up to super lumen setting & being lazy I hadn't hooked the extraction fan & ducting up to the light ( it's an air cooled light shade) pump air from outside tent through sealed light shade & exhaust it outside. I hooked that up & raised the light around 20 cm & all is good now, some burnt leaves. She is bouncing back & grown more leaves. It may have slowed Bud development a little! I changed light cycle to 12.5 hours of darkness 11.5 hrs on to try & kick her into gear , fool her into thinking the season is coming to an end with shorter daylight hours. I may increase dark period a little more bit by bit, experiment a little, I've read of other growers who give plants less light around week 6 till harvest. She is getting a faint lemony smell. Lollipoped some of the smaller secondary branches, any tips low down not receiving much light & don't look like they will get much bigger, other than that I'm leaving her alone, probably just try & seperate any close growing colas so we don't get any Bud rot. Thanks for checking out my diary please leave a comment & some likes would be great so that myself & the apprentice grow cat can progress from apprentice stage 👍😻🙀

She seems to be growing kinda slow.. I'm sure it's from all the stress I put on her. She should pick back up this week. Day 30 and she has some calyxes poppin up everywhere.. I think day 31 I found her first pistil.. Ill know for sure day 32. She's healthy and the slow growth is picking up a little. I need to put in some horizontal spikes to tie the branches down a little more.. Just enough to give the colas room to grow at this point. She's not gonna be a massive yield (obviously) but not gonna be a complete waste of time. Once I harvest my current main plant I will try it again in a 5 gallon pot. Yup! Pistils at day 32.. Just small and hard to take a pic of. Preflower begins!!! This week temps have been getting up to 86F.. I put in a 2nd inline fan with carbon filter and 2 more fans for the top of canopy to get some air movement. The air is NOT cooling down enough so Im just gonna have to go without the filter. ... Later that day... Even without the filter, the tent still gets up to 84F.. WTF?! It was staying below 80 with just a little clip-on fan and small inline fan pulling air out and nothing pushing air in.. Im using the smaller inline to pull air in and the new inline pulling air out.. Now it gets warmer.. I dont get it.. Gonna have to go back to my old setup I guess.. ... Even later that day... Put up the old ventalation.. But with extra fan still pulling in air.. Smell may be strong throughout my room when lights go out.. But oh well.. I love the smell. Tied down branches a little more.. They should be far enough to do what she needs to do.. Pistils are there.. Just very very small at this point.. But they are there on a couple branches lookin good and happy! 😊 no more leaf removing.. This is only my 3rd auto... Second auto is only halfway through flower now.. Sooo, I'm still learning!!!

I ended up over watering while flushing from the nute burn, as i finished the flush i did a calmag feed and my deficiency got worse. Not sure what’s going on here!! But buds are stacking nicely and getting dense. The tall plant looks to be a week or 2 ahead of the bushy plant

Hello, J’ai recoupé les extrémités des 4 branche pour créer 8 nouveau site de buds, plus qu’à attendre pour recouper et faire 16 sites… la végétation se passe bien dans l’ensemble, je vais la voir une fois par jour, elle est heureuse et pas compliquée 😎

I have watered her twice this week, once with 3l of rain water and once with 3,5l of rain water. I will probably up the volume a bit more next week. There are still some burned tips but the rest of the plant is OK. I will not be home for the next 2 weeks so I will rely on other people to take care of my girls, hopefully it al goes well🙏.

Loud hashy, pepper, sulfur, rotten fruit, lemon, and Skittles terps. The landraces got nice structure, terps and yield but resin is lacking. I think that's normal. Gonna have to cross these a few times till I find something great that is worth it.
