Never heard of weedseedsexpress before coming to grow diaries. Saw the contest as a great opportunity to try new seeds, and I was very surprised with the outcome. 100% germination rate, super strong plants, easy to grow, when it comes to pests and plagues, also performed well... even tho one was chopped because of becoming hermie, didn’t had any other issues with it. They like space to grow! And taking 2kg from 5 plants, to me, it’s an absolute record! I’ll definitely wanna try now more of @weedseedsexpress and recommend you guys to try them too. Weed has been drying now for 4 days, so, pretty soon I’ll be able to add the final weight!

Day 42-49 (Day 42) Just watered today but couldn’t go until runoff because I didn’t have enough RO. I forgot to add the probiotic too. Nonetheless, everything is starting to recover from those weird deficiencies and is looking super healthy. Plants are really bushing out now too. I had to top the zkittlez and BBB#3 again as they are just getting too big. Nothing is definitively showing sex yet but I’m seeing clues. Shouldn’t be long now. If I get 4 females or less I will use 10gal pots, 5-7 fem 5gal pots and 8-12 3gal pots. I need to stop overwatering. Even though it doesn’t look too overwatered, it is much better to water a little bit each day at lights on. This will help keep the humidity down as well as deliver optimal oxygen to the roots speeding up plant growth considerably. (Day 45) Gave an EM1 spray down today. The beneficial bacteria is said to overpopulate surfaces so powdery mildew and septoria can’t form. Something seems to be really working as I haven’t seen any yet. (Day 47) I sealed up the tent and am running both dehumidifiers and it’s keeping the RH around a safe 70% night and day which is right on track with VPD. Plants are all looking super healthy. Deficiencies have pretty much all cleared up. Cold nights I’m running 600w and warmer nights I’ll run 400w. I was asking around Instagram about white ash/good burn and a few different people assured me it has to do with mineral content of the soil. I was told the three best products for clean ash is glacial rock dust/basalt, oyster shell flour and langbeinite. I already have langbeinite so I’ll grab the other amendments today and top dress. I grabbed the amendments and also got some Destiny Organics dark matter super soil, coco and some beneficial nematodes. Top dressed each amendment except langbeinite and mulched in some coco coir. (Day 48) My shelf came in today and I think it may be to big for the 4x4 tent. Each square is 12”, not the 11.8” advertised. I could wipe down my flower room and set it up in there which would give my plants a good adjustment to the new lights before I flip. Or I could set it up in the veg tent but that seems like a huge hassle as the need to be moved and flipped soon anyway. I wish they would show sex already so I can toss out the plants I’m not keeping. For flower I am considering starting over fresh with the new Destiny soil and coco mixed with some amendments. I’m concerned that my current mix might be too hot. I could also dilute it with the Destiny/coco mix. Those little bulb mites that came in with the worm castings are a little concerning as well. Some say they are just beneficial composters aka “worm bin mites” and others are telling me they’re predatory bulb mites which destroy crops like garlic. I’m leaning towards beneficial composters but in another grow I watched them devour a seedling before it sprouted. Gotta check the current roots but the plants aren’t quite ready to be transplanted. (Day 49) Got everything in the flower tent wiped down and sprayed with alcohol then EM1 few hours later. Got the shelf set up and got all my temp controls set up and running. I put the controllers outside the tent this time and will patch any light leaks. Gave a lite compost tea at 830ppm and a velokelp foliar spray at 6ml/L. This will be the last veg feeding before I transplant into their final containers on the 31st. BCTG#2 is a confirmed male and I pulled him. No one else is showing definitively. Roots looked super healthy with very few mites but I’m not 100% convinced they’re all clean. I saw a few mites on leaves today too. Saw a bit of droop after the move but they all look happy just a few hours later. Took a few clones from some sucker branches on a few of the blackberries.

I went ahead and gave them a lil bit of voodoo just one watering with it. I am doing leaf tucking or leaf breading whenever I see possible. They all seem to like it especially #1 and #3.😊

SHERBERT QUEEN AUTO / RQS WEEK #7 OVERALL WEEK #2 FLOWER TThis week no issues to report she's starting to get some shape to her buds and she's also grown some this week she's looking good! Stay Growing!! Thank you for stopping by and taking a look it's much appreciated!! Thank you ROYAL QUEEN SEEDS!! SHERBERT QUEEN AUTO / RQS

Today is day 78 since the plants sprouted, and day 43 of the 12/12 light schedule. In the original tent, plants #1 and #3 are doing great. Plants #1 has a super nice purple color, and its buds are bigger than the other plants. I really wish I made a greater effort on the clones so I could grow #1 again. In the second tent, plant #4 (the one that pollinated/herm'd) doesn't have any obvious signs of growing seeds in the buds yet. I've developed a keen eye for pollen sacks and developing seed pods from my last grow, and so far plant #4 doesn't look like it will be unsmokable. There's a picture of all the pollen sacks I've pulled off the plant since it moved tents, and while most of them are opened, I don't think they had too much of an effect (yet). The buds do seem to be maturing a little early, with many of the hairs turning color, and already showing amber trichomes on the buds. *Bonus* The two little plants in the tent with plant #4 are the fast flowering photoperiods from FastBuds, and they were switched to flower in week 2 of veg because I had to move plant #4 in there. They look like they've gone into flower, but are SUPER stretchy from the light position. It'll be interesting to see how they grow out.

Flowers are getting bigger by the day now,not much more i can say .. she's loving life

Oh man I messed up by not cutting candy kush #3 before the rain last week and lost a little less than half to botrytis 😓😓😞 but can only be mad at myself for not chopping her down sooner and I will still end up with a few ozs from CKE #3. Candy kush #2 just exploded with trichomes and orange pistils over the last 8 days so I'm very glad I left #1 & #2 out,going to chop #2 today or maybe tomorrow if it stays warm and sunny!!! Candy kush #1 is the biggest of the 3(makes sense since I put her in a full 15 gallon grow bag). When I chopped #3 last week cke #1 was no where near done but now almost all her pistils have turned brown and she has milky trichomes all over!! Im the most excited for CKE #2 ,she smells like the old school west coast og kush with a hint of chem to her it's amazing!! Candy kush #1 got more of the sweet special traits in the nose smells very sweet and earthy but im sure both will be amazing smoke no doubt in my mind!! ✌️ ☮️

Both shot up in size over the past week or two, ones at 113cm other now at 130cm, tallest has been bent over and tied down to hopefully stop the growth, coming along well now and can't wait for the next few weeks to pass, First ever grow only done LST on 1 plant let the other grow naturally but put a few ties on it this week to get more light exposure as it seems way behind the other and there is only actually about 2 days in them, what are peoples thoughts on how its looking? Thanks

All looking healthy except for i found a couple of thrips defoliating can anyone recommend anything

The plants are doing very well so far and are developing magnificently. They have gained a lot of leaf mass since the time change. The light has been adjusted PPfd: 875 / DLi: 38. - DAY-59 / Bloomday-09 Today each plant was watered with 2L of water with 4ml Hesi Bloomcomplex and 2ml Hesi BOOST. - DAY-62 / Bloomday-12 Today, at the end of the second week of flowering, the plants were little defoliated. They were then each watered with 3 liters of water with 2 ml HESI BOOST and 4 ml HESI Bloomcomplex. - DAY-64/ Bloomday-64 The last day of the second flowering week.

Last week (9th) of flower harvested at day 63 flowering I had some overwatering problems in week 3-4 which threw me back like 2-3 weeks of veg, all plants had stunted growth... I did some lolipoping just before flowering but it seems it wasn't enough...alot of small budsites...will remove more next time... All in all i'm still very satisfied with the harvest, alot of nice mid-sized nuggets, all over resin Will add harvest weeks for both strains next week after i dried them

Que pasa familia, otra vez actualizamos la última semana de crecimiento, estás zkittalizious de Exotic seeds están bastante sanas van con un color verde potente y de 2 , 1 desarrollo varias puntas en la parte central. Si sigue así esto va ser proyectazo. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Bueno las maximas de temperatura no superan los 25 grados y las mínimas no bajan 19, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/60% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo poco más la verdad ya con ganas de empezar la floración , buenos humos 💨💨💨

This week just flush her with 8 litre ph water and I will harvest her next week some point Update today day 100 and she is thirsty as hell will flush her again tomorrow then will go for 48 hour darkness Update today day 103 and I find my jewellery microscope but still can't see any Amber trichomes so I leave her and will check on her everyday Update today day 105 and I decide to chop her down I let her 12 hour darkness then chop off will update later

Finally back to it!
