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 ✌️💚

Week 8 (May 24th - 30th) This week the roots began getting larger. This was also the week I began to really use eggshells and coffee grounds. I saw more bugs come out of the dirt (sometimes just happens) and I noticed the wood I burn as well as grounds, the more I use the better and stronger. I also know that coffee grounds and eggshells contain certain nutrients that are necessary in plant health and growth / life. The roots were starting to come out of the bottom of the pot-hole. I started looking for larger containers.

In only 55 days from Seed to Harvest I grew Fast Buds LEmon Cherry Cookies while being on the road. She is the fastest Plant I ever grew and the Danf Box and Bio Tabs made it super easy.

Flipped to 12/12 at the end of Week 7. The manganese issue seems to have been solved by lowering the pH levels. Ordinarily I'd strip most everything below the net this week, but a friend asked me to leave him some clippings until week 2-3 of flower. I cleaned it up a little underneath the net, continued to tuck new growth, and started to slack back on grow nutes, and slowly introduce flower nutrients. I was hoping to have a second Aglex 2000 COB LED to add to the tent for flower, but it may be another week or two before I can add it.

SUNDAY 5/19: I accidentally left my UV timer in the "ON" position all night and half of the next day...fearing sudden death, I have moved everybody that was almost ready into the dark tent, including the biggest Candy Cane and will start harvesting them tomorrow..maximum UVB stress for about 20 hours...if it works out that they are even more potent than expected without turning brown overnight, I'll claim it was "intentional," and purport it as an "advanced technique" 😉 MONDAY: The big one still looks fine after the mega-UVB incident , so she's still sitting in the dark. She I flipped on the green light and went into the tent for a sniff test on everybody. She's got that familiar, wonderful stank on her! 😁 TUESDAY: I harvested the big one today and hung her up to dry in the dark tent. RH is steady at 55% and temp is 78-80f. I decided to start flushing everybody else today, so I put a few gallons through each of them with sledgehammer and bembe. I'll flush them once more after they've dried out. The temps in the big tent are now steady at 82f during daylight hours and 68-70f at night. I changed the lights in the big tent to 20/4 for their last bit of life and added some blue panels to further "winterize" the environment. They are still being hammered by the UVB for 6 hours a day. WEDNESDAY: I took a few photos and harvested some other plants today... THURSDAY: CC#7, the big one, was drying too quickly, so I jarred her in a big jar for the day to slow it down a bit. I'll put her back in the basket tomorrow for another day or so. I also decreased airflow a bit and turned my dehumidifier up to 50%. FRIDAY: I put the big one back in the drying basket in the tent. She had moistened back up really well. Last flush tomorrow on the others. Checked trichs and am seeing up to 25% amber on some of the buds..30-40% should be about right for some truly delicious and crippling smoke. SATURDAY: I took some photos while putting a few gallons of ph adjusted spring water through them today..I'll prolly put them into the dark on Tuesday and kill them on Thursday. Their foliage is burnt up pretty bad due to the massive UVB over-exposure, so I'll have some extra work with the trimming... 😏

Day 12, more and more flowers appearing everyday. Still looking healthy, but might have made her too big for her container. She’s drinking 3 gallons or more a day at this point.

I added some soil to reduce the length of the stems and make them more stable to the fans, sprayed once with mineral water after the lamp goes out and put some sticky traps because as usual there are some gnats in the soil, nothing to worry about so far.

Heading into the final week (for some) and we have some real beauties coming through, honestly, there’s not 1 bad plant in this batch... some are definitely slightly longer flowering, so they’ll carry on a week or two longer. The smells I’m getting from these girls range from sweet tropical funk, to grape fizz pop, with the gassier smelling girls carrying citrus undertones... the gassier smelling bunch all needing the extra week or two, with the tropical fruit funks and grape fizz pop all aiming to do it in around 60days. I am super amped about this run, I'm struggling to find ones that I don't want to keep 😅 so I'll do another full run of the crop just to make extra sure I'm not getting rid of anything just yet.

Started off week 2 of flowering on 11/19. All of the ladies look good with the Tangerine Dream being the only set of clones to start showing bud sights and not just pre-flowering. Did a significant amount of clipping and clipped most of the fan leaves on the main colas of my ladies and side branches too. I also began playing classical music for them! True to it’s genetics my Tangerine Dreams are putting off numerous side branches with side branches coming off those branches! Since flowering my Cotton Candy has grown the most. Before flowering it was just barely half the height of my TDs and now they’re taller! As for the Chronic Thunder it’s always been the tallest but in flowering it’s focus has all been on the side branches without me even topping it.
