Hi everyone 😁 I would like to thank you all fellow growers and breeders for such a great support on this journey. Thank you Grow Diaries and Green House Seeds. Without you all this wouldn't be possible. Love you all First ever recorded diary so don't know where to even start 😅 I am returning to growing after many many years of break. This is my first ever experience with autoflowers, scrog, lst, led and such tiny grow space. Choice of strain - Big Bang Auto from Green House Seeds. I have run so many strains from this seed bank in the past and I was always happy with the final outcome. Was looking for indica dominant strain, fast flowering cycle and very important heavy yields on small spaces. Again thank you GHSC in very happy of choosing this strain. Little bit about my cabinet. External dimensions: 64 x 50 x 114 cm (W x D x H) Growing area: 55 x 47 cm cm (0.26 m2) Panel based on SAMSUNG LM301B diodes Spectrum: Samsung LM301B – 5000 x72 Samsung LM301B – 3000k x136 Samsung LM301B – 660nm x9 Samsung LM301B – IR 760nm x1 Regulation in the range of 20W - 110W - Meanwell XLG 100-H-AB PPF 300 umol/s PPFD 890 mol/m2/s @30c Total of 6 adjustable fans, 4 exhaust fans 4 modes - silent/drying, vegetation, flowering, full power Active carbon mass in the filter 2kg Absolutely love my grow cabinet. Thinking of next build already. My grow 3 beautiful ladies - Nuna, Luna and Sweet Mary Jane. This was a pleasure experience growing autos for the first time. All 3 ladies on the end developed perfectly. Nuna, left corner lady- tall and beautiful. She had some problems to switch to flowering and was even considering removing her but very happy that I was patient enough and turned great. Luna, right corner lady - have to say she is the queen. She has the most heavy buds from all, the most. colorful. Her wet weight was 420g, can't say how much of dry but guessing approx. 100g Sweet Mary Jane, front seat lady. I think she was the most pleasant to grow of her location but due to no other spare space for drying I belive that I have harvested her at least a week to early. If keep longer I belive she could be the most yielder from all 3. Thank you all for all the support, help, comments, likes, messeges. Love you all 💚💚💚 Will update this diary in some time and when puff perfectly cured 😎 Peace and love ✌️💚

Great news—my Banana Kush seed has popped and is standing tall! 🎉 Tiny cotyledons are already showing a healthy green, and I’m excited to watch this girl take off over the next few days. Here’s to a strong start! #BananaKush #Seedling #GrowDiaries **Day 5 – Seedling Update** Great news: all three Banana Kush seedlings are settling into veg! 🌱 The cotyledons look bright and healthy, and each plant has its first true leaf set. They did stretch a touch at the start, but the lowered light and steady airflow should help them thicken up fast. --- ### Environment * **Temp / RH:** 25 °C day – 21 °C night / **75 % RH** * **Light:** LED at 35 %, now **20 cm** above the canopy, 18/6 schedule * **Airflow:** Two fans have been running unfortunatley only since yesterday to keep fresh air moving and strengthen the stems * **Medium:** Light mix with extra perlite in 0.5 L peat pots on a seed-heat mat ### Watering & Feed * Still giving only **plain Gerolsteiner Naturell** (pH ≈ 6.2 out of the bottle) – no nutrients yet; runoff looks clean. ### Observations * Stems are a little lanky from the earlier light distance, but colour is good and the new growth looks happy. * Roots should start circling the peat pots soon; a gentle tug already shows light resistance. ### Next Moves 1. **Up-pot in 3–4 days** into 3 L Air-Pots and bury an extra couple of centimetres of stem to fix the stretch. 2. Keep RH around 70–75 % for another week, then start lowering to ~60 % as they bulk up. 3. Gradually ramp the light to 40–45 % once they’re settled in the new pots. So far, so sweet—here’s hoping for chunky Banana Kush colas down the road! 🍌✨

Started out great as a seedling. On week 3 things I used cheap clips that jacked things up and after a certain amount of time passed I decided to transplant it to Fox Farms Strawberry fields soil where it quickly went into flower shortly after. I chopped 77 days after planting the seed. It produced 47 grams dry of amazing flower. The smell is incredibly pungent -sweet and citrus scent. The high is great as well. After drying for 8 days they were then thrown into a grove bag for an infinite cure until consumed.

I know that it may seem like a lot of nutrients at first. It’s not. A lot of those mycorrhizae ingredients are mixed into my soil well before the germinated seed goes into the pot. I make my own mix of soil using some of those ingredients. I like to use the great white mykos because of its powders consistency. Makes it easy for a clean transport from germinated bean to its forever home. For watering, they have been given only plain RO water with a neutral ph. Just yesterday I gave them a little tiny mix of Medusa’s magic, Zeus juice, and Gaia mania. I have used Oregon’s only brand products for a while now and I absolutely love them and better yet, I understand them. They have responded super well already to their first drink of bottled nutes with a ph of 6.3 . I’m keeping a RH between 50 and 60%. I’m also keeping a temp during the day at around 78-81°f. Right now I’m not worried about a night time temp but I do run cooler lights for about 4 hrs every day, dropping to around 70-75°f. Eventually I will add my second light boosting me from 600w too 1200w. Also they will begin a 20-4 hr light cycle. I find these autos do amazing with a little rest for 4 hrs. Allows me to pull more resin and color in later stages of life by dropping the temp lower than usual with the lights off. So please if you will, stay tuned and I’ll have much more info and much better videos and pictures for you to all enjoy. Thanks for looking! ✌️🏻

SPONSORED DIARY===SPONSORED DIARY===SPONSORED DIARY TRANSPLANT #2 THIS WEEK!!!! This week was a great one, lots of sun and gave the plants their 2nd transplant of the cycle. only one left to go in a few weeks, the plan was to do 3gal but I feel it would be best to go upto 4gal a 1extra gallon will not be all that much extra root space to expand into. Will have to check if they even make them in 4. I have a feeling its only 1,2,3. Root wise they are looking similar but not identical. I would say the Dynomyco treated plant has a thicker rootball and more of them. but not by a massive amount. More white on the Dynomyco treated plant as well. added in some more Acti-Sol into the transplant medium. same mix as before. Then watered in with some LAB Serum. should do the plants well. I did not add in anymore of the MIIM microbial mass product as I thought it might alter the results of the grow. so we will see how they do now with out it. I'm really liking how well the plants are bushing up. I might have to take some clones and try them indoors as well. I think I prefer to grow more indica leaning strain for their growth habits. SPONSORED DIARY===SPONSORED DIARY===SPONSORED DIARY This is my diary entry into the Dynomyco Show Us What You Got Contest! #DynomycoShowUsWhatYouGot! @DynomycoShowUsWhatYouGot! @Dynomyco Big Shoutout to @Dynomyco for picking me in their contest. Happy to be involved and as a user of Dynomyco I am curious to see this side by side with my own eyes. I will be honest I am a little skeptical it will show any major differences. but we will see what happens. Some disclaimers, I am still using LABS serum I made, This is also beneficial to the root mass however it's a bacteria based product and not fungal or mycorrhizae like Dynomyco. https://growdiaries.com/giveaways/DYNOMYCO_Show_Us_What_You_Got

Hi! In this diary I will grow 5 Sativa and Indica dominant Auto Feminized Strains: Sour Orange Auto Feminized Seeds (2 seeds.) By The Bakery Seed Co. Sour Orange Auto Feminized Seeds are a cross of the famous Sour Tangie and the Bakery’s in house Ruderalis. Also a 80% sativa dominant strain with 56 to 70 day flower period. Tested at 17% THC this genetic is highly stable and the Bakery are very happy with the results. This Auto Feminized seed can be cultivated indoors as well as outdoors but definitely prefers a slightly warmer climate to gain the best terpene profile possible. An uplifting effect with a sweet and sour aroma of tangerines. This auto flower seed is another great addition to the Bakery Seed Co’s Automatic Range Auto Critical Orange Punch Seeds By Dutch Passion. Auto Critical Orange Punch Seeds are Dutch Passions first Critical Autoflower. A cross of (Grandaddy Purps x Orange Bud) x XXL Auto Kritical Bilbo, creating an easy strain to cultivate. Expect a full life cycle of 75 days from sprout to harvest with impressive XXL yields. She thrives with 20 hours of light and can grow up to 70-100cm indoors. Certain phenotypes can flower for an extra week or so to gain the XXL yields! Sweet skunk aromas with a hint of rich Afghan hash. Sour Stomper Auto Feminized Seeds are an example of what careful selection can achieve with breeding. A fruity style pheno of the Sour Crack female crossed with the Grapestomper OG male from Gage Green then crossed with ruderalis by Mephisto. This 50/50 Indica Sativa hybrid has a great stretch contributing to large yields. Due to cooler conditions late in flower, this dense canopy can produce beautiful blues and purples. A great genetic for indoor and outdoor cultivation and all finished and ready to harvest in just 65 to 70 days. This hybrid is popular with extracts and has Grape aroma in bloom. Auto Lemon Zkittle Feminized Seeds are made from quality USA genetics. It is an Overall Highlife Cup Winner 2018!!! It has won 1st prize in Sativa category and also was awarded the Overall Highlife Winner Trophy. Lemon Zkittle Auto retains its high THC and yields even in automatic form. Due to the lineage, this hybrid is very simple to cultivate and a great choice for beginners. Fruit and skunk aromas combined with citrus flavors and long-lasting effects. 20 Hour light cycle is recommended as well as a minimum of 75 days from seed. Some phenos can take a week longer to produce the massive yields. Outdoors this variety can take up to 100 days from seed to harvest. With THC levels tested 21% as well as minimum yields of 400g/m2, this automatic hybrid is a great addition to Dutch Passion Automatic range. 24 hours light schedule, 90 percent humidity, trigger spray, no fertilization. 15th of August: Girls are ready for germination, tonight I will place the seeds to be in water at least for 12 hours :) 15th of August: I put the seeds in the water. 16 of August 2019: Seeds are placed between damp paper towel :) 17th of Augsut 2019: All good so far, They are ready to be planted tomorrow;) Day 1: They are in the soil. Hopefully they will come out soon :) 60W LED for 5 plants and the humidity is very high 98 percent. I give 5 ml water a day per plant and plus triggering to keep the humidity very high. All the holes are closed. Day 2: Non of them are out yet but I think by tomorrow it will happen:). Day 3: All out :) Day 5: Sour Stomper and Lemon Zkittle a bit slower but all of them grow nicely. Babies ❤️ Day 6: They are coming! Critical Orange Punch is growing very quick she is already 10 cm but the rest of them are 6-7 cm.

I had a little pH dip the other day and the leaves showed some magnesium deficiency. I am not super worried. These leaves are far from final ones. She has grown pretty well beside that pH issue. It should be solved now. I was feeding a little strong. I still kinda am. She is doing good under the G300W Spider Farmer light. I have it like 25 percent right now everything looks good now.

Growing very well. Just add water. Very easy. The leaves look nice even not too dark green. Did some more defoliation on bottom third of plant. Buds starting to fill in. This lady looks much better than the one on liquid organics

So she was chopped (wet trimmed) yesterday (F74) and is now hanging up to dry at 55% RH and temps between 15 and 18ºc. I made fresh frozen dry ice hash today using a 160 micron bubble bag, a flat surface, 8kg of dry ice and a couple 5 gal buckets. I already have the weights for that, which far exceeded my expectations. Those figures I will post once she is dried and in 1 quart screw top glass jars. People suppose dry ice hash is inferior quality vs bubble hash. I am not experienced enough to comment on that but must say it is extremely easy to make hash with dry ice, it took 40 mins to process 995g of trim which included sugar leaves, some stems and popcorn buds. I then pressed it into 3.5g briquettes for storage using a pollen press. As you can see from videos, this stuff is all blonde - and after already trying some today with some friends, it knocked our boots off! Will be back in 5-7 days with harvest figures, smoke analysis and other details! Happy growing all! P.s I ticked defoliation this week - the only week I intentionally cut any leaves off for the entire grow 😉

Leaves are changing, and doing out. Trichomes are starting to get cloudy, as well as the hairs turning orange and curling.

Well here it is folks last week of planet of the grapes auto :). She is getting thick everyday and just hit with regular water. Banana hammock one and two will go another two/three weeks from today. Still getting fed nutrients. Crescendo auto will get the axe next Saturday :). So damn happy this outcome. Growing them all over again as we speak babies are around day 4 and looking healthy and off to a great start. Little update on 1/29 final video of planet of the grapes auto before chop.
