She’s looking good, still growing her buds more frosty and dense. She smells citrusy and piney so far. She’s continuing to fatten and frost.

4/13 10TH planet is doing phenomenal under those aerogarden lights. I'll wait a little bit then I'll bring them over with the others. I'm comparing the growth to the growth of the mk ultra and the chem dog as they are of a more similar age. I watered the 2 mk ultra and the chem dog #4. The others looked alright so I'll check later on. The three in the middle will probably be culled. The may recover but if they don't it doesn't really matter. I'll have what I need. I'm super excited for this season. I shouldve done more 10th planet. The "kush" seedlings are starting to take off. The leaves are finally starting to get bigger and they are developing new growth. WENT BACK OVER AT 1:30. PLANTS WILL NEED TO BE WATERED IN THE MORNING. ONE PLANT WAS DOWN TO 199 GRAMS BUT IT HAS A LITTLE LESS SOIL IN THE CUP. THEY ARE GROWING AT A MORE RAPID PACE AND I DONT WANT TO INTERRUPT THAT. OTHER CUPS WERE LOW BUT NOT READY TO BE WATERED. I THINK EITHER WAY IT WOULD BE FINE BUT IM ERRING ON THE EDGE OF CAUTION. I MAYBE SHOULDVE WATERED THE DRY ONE BUT HINDSIGHT IS 20/20 AND I KIND OF WANT THEM TO BE ON A SIMILAR SCHEDULE. I GRABVED A TACK AND CHECKED THE DRAIMAGE IN THE BOTTOM. I ADDED A FEW MORE HOLES OB THE BOTTOM SIDE. I MAY JUST HAVE TO JUNK THAT MIDDLE ROW OF 3 I STRESSED BY DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE LIGHT MANUAL SAID TO DO. OH WELL I PLANNED FOR THAT WITH THE 2 MK ULTRAS AND THE CHEM DOG #4. ALL ARE DOING GREAT. SOME OF THE SOECIAL AND PINK KUSH ARE GETTING THEIR TERTIARY SET OF LEAVES SO THEY ARE PULLING OUT AND GOING TO TOWN. THE ITHER ONES (MK ULTRA, CHEM DOG, 10TH PLANET) THAT DIDNT GET STRESSED SEEM TO BE GROWING AT A FASTER RATE. I THINK I MIGHT TRY AN AUTO THIS YEAR. I HAVE A FEW BEANS. ILL THINK ABOUT IT BUT IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE FRESH WEED HALF-WAY THROUGH THE SUMMER. 4/14 WATERED ALL THE KUSH WITH A SHOT GLASS. THEY WERE VERY DRY. ONE WAS IN THE 180'S. I FOUND THAT ONE OF THE PLANTS THAT WAS STINTED HAS FALLEN OVER AND WAS LIMP AGAINST THE CUP. I IMMEDIATELY REMOVED TGE TWO SEEDLINGS THAT WERE BY FAR THE WORST AND I ASSUMED I WAS LOSING. I TOOK THE PEAT PELLET OUT AND THE TAPROOT HAD BARELY PENETRATED ONE AND HADN'T PENETRATED IT AT ALL ON THE OTHER ONE. IM NOT USING THOSE PEAT PELLETS AGAIN. ITS WIERD. I'VE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. PLANTS SEEM TO BE DOING GOOD. IM CONSIDERING STARTING ANOTHER SEED OR TWO. MAYBE AN AUTO. Edit. I added mykos amd happy happy frog to the 10th planet in the solo cups. They are already to the top. I watered them with a shot glass of water amd some mykos. 4/15 I added soil to the top of the cup on kush plants and watered them with a shot glass. It seems like I may need to up the water as it's only lasting about a day. I'm seeing some slight stretching but I have no idea why. They are just seedlings and it's a 150watt hps light! Last year I used 2! I think they needed to stay under the cfl's a little longer and thatci nightve stressed them prematurelyremoving some helmet heads. Or maybe they are having problems breaking through the pear netting. I'll tell you one thing im NEVER using peat pellets again. I have other seeds and autos I could start if needed. I have what i need but if I lose a few more I'll be pissed. Maybe better to startca couole more. Those 10thvplanet are doing amazing and blowing past everything else. They look so healthy. I'm going to download a light meter on dad's iPhone and get some readings with all the different lights today. 4/16 I was able to download a FREE app for a light meter. Apple has one bit you have to pay for readings of any of the "good" lights. I had a very hurried morning and didn't take any pictures. That one special kush that was burned like the other two I threw away (or damaged when I removed the helmet head) is starting to look like it has some NEW growth. I've kept it but a little ways away from the others. I weighed all cups and they didn't seem to need water. I AGAIN packed dry soil into a cup to get a reading. Still 200. When they get within 10 grams of dry weight I'll water them. I measured and found I had the light further away than it should be. I lowered it to approx 3ft from the top of the canopy. I'll try to map the area and see what I'm getting for results. Then I'll plug in my L.E.D and see what I get. I only lowered the light because readings (that may be inaccurate) say it's not enough and two years ago when I used this light i used two. That is unnecessary I think for seedlings. I'm just trying to get them through seedling phase intact so I can move to veg and switch my light. Transplantvinto one gallons. This is where patience comes in. I'm sure everything will be fine. I just am a worrier. 4/17 I used that light meter to check the ppfd. It says it should be between 100-200 but it was only reading at like 65 and this was after I lowered the light. I'd need to go down a ways to get anywhere close. I tried to check my l.e.d and that was low so I can switch back fine. Especially with the light meter app. However the plants seem to be doing better and have tertiary leaves so I'm hesitant to change things when they seem like they are having a growth spurt. I may take the 2 mk ultras and put them with 10th planet since they are doing so good. Won't let me upload pictures. WATERED ALL THE KUSH WITH A SHOT GLASS. EDIT: WENT BACK OVER AND USED THE PHONE APP METER ON THE LATEST IPHONE. I LOWERED THE LIGHT RO A LITTLE UNDER THREE FEET. THAT GAVE ME ABOUT 100-120 ON THE HOTTEST SPOT AND LESS FURTHER AWAY OBVIOUSLY. IM TAKING THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT. I MEASURED ME 100 WATT LED AND WITH BOTH SWITCHES ON I CAN REACH OVER 100 EASY FROM FAIRLY FAR AWAY. ILL BE MONITORING GROWTH AND DECIDING HOW TO MOVE FORWARD FROM THERE. I TOOK THE DOMES OFF THE 19TH PLANET BUT THE LEAF TIPS STARTED TO CURL. THE NEED TO BE HARDWNED OFF. THE CFL WAS TO CLOEE AND BRIGHT BUT MORE SO WAS THE RH OF THIS BUILDING WHICH IS PRACTICALLY NOTHING. ILL HAVE TO MOCE THEM WITH THE OTHERS. UNTIL THEN I POKED HOLES WITH A TAC ALL OVER THE DOME. THAT WAY IT CAN VENT A LITTLE BIT. I'LL SLOWLY ACCLIMATE UT TO THE LOW RH INDOORS BEFORE THE GO TO THE 100RH OUTDOORS LOL. 4/18 Didn't water this morning because things were over 20grams dry weight. Came back around one and weighed and most were within the 20 grams. One was under 200. I can see more growth since the light adjustment but I still see some stretching. But I've seen noticeable growth in a short period. I'm contemplating waiting to see what happens for a few days or to just switch to my l.e.d using my meter as a guide. Even though the box tells you how far to hang it. I'm bringing the aerogarden over to the grow tomorrow. I have a few more as well. I'm going to check that with the light meter and am considering putting the mk ultras and maybe the chem dog under that. I mean those are doing great. I poked more holes in the dome and have been exposing the plants to low rh and increased light. They don't have immediate effects anymore. I have the domes popped open too. They are gett9ng acclimated. Realistically I'm wondering if I should just pop more 10th planet or mk ultra or an auto but looking through my other diaries things will be fine. I worry to much and I usually grow clones. Outdoors. Plus most of my stuff was stolen so I'm making use of things the best I can. My money is going into good soil. I also checked the temperature at the hottest spot under the light and it was 80 degrees. This is telling my I can't really lower my light anymore. I've got some thinking to do. EDIT: 10th Planet has done well all day without a humidity dome in this extremely low rh. I'm going to bring them and the aerogarden to the grow tomorrow. I have my l.e.d setup to test. I plan to use the light meter to see what is closest to the correct ppfd. A lot of it will be gut feeling too. I'm interested to see the reading on the new aerogarden bulbs. Those seedlings are doing awesome. 4/19 Didn't water this morning I don't think. I was hurried. Got back and found one seedling that had been growing some bigger leaves just flat on the cup. Luckily I had noticed it drooping (should've watered) and picked up a straw on the way home. It weighed 180 grams. Everything was low and I MAY have watered yesterday bit I don't think so. With this hps so close its bringing the temp up to 80. I checked the cfl aerogarden lights. Wow are those bright! I had to raise them to get in range. I put the mk ultra and chemdog under the aerogardeb light. It's about 300 bit it has a couple hot spots that bring it up to like 4k-5k. The 10th planet's loved it though and did great. I held my hand over the plants and it seemed ok. Now for the hps light and the pink kush and special kush #1. I put my tatu 100 watt (1000 watt equivelant lol) 248ns above the seedlings I had just watered. Since that hps dried everything out so much I gave them 2 shot glasses. I'll keep monitoring things. I feel like this is the best bet for me. If I fuck something up I'll have to pop more 10th planet and mk ultra ect. But I've got to make sure things are in the right range. If it stretches a little I'll just have to repot it a little sooner than the others. When they outgrow the solos they go to 1 gallon. Tomorrow I'm picking up AT LEAST a bag of fox farm ocean forest so I'll be ready for transplant when necessary. I need to get all my pots together and bring the other hps to my cousin to fix. However when they get bigger I might just use the l.e.d AND the hps if I had too.

This week you could see the bud sites starting to really show :) Did some heavy defoliation but again you can't tell by the pictures Pheno #1 and #2 were growing so tall and were stretching every day it was hard to get the lights any higher. Soon they won't be able to go any higher. Feeding schedule stayed constant for most of the grow. See previous weeks

During my previous grow, I harvested and made some bubble hash. Afterward, I dropped the used, wet buds onto this coco, and it seems some seeds sprouted from the leftover material. I’m not even sure if they’re photoperiod or autoflower, but hey—let's roll with it! Both my pH meter and PPM meter are broken. I have no idea why they keep breaking so often. They’re ADWA meters, and while you can replace the reading elements, the replacements cost half the price of a new meter. It’s frustrating, and I really don’t want to keep buying them every time I start a new grow

Watergift: 1000 ml, met 0.2 ml Silica Power per liter, 0.3 ml CalMag per liter en 1 gr Calcium PowderFeeding per liter. EC: 0.6 PH: 6.2 28-5 Temperatuur: 29 graden (licht aan) 22.7 graden (licht uit) Luchtvochtigheid: 54% (hoogste) 44% (laagste) Watergift: 1000 ml, met 0.2 ml Silica Power per liter, 0.3 ml CalMag per liter en 1 gr Calcium, 0.6 gr Hybrids en 0.4 gr PK+ PowderFeeding per liter. EC: 1.7 PH: 6.2 29-5 Temperatuur: 28.6 graden (licht aan) 20.9 graden (licht uit) Luchtvochtigheid: 52% (hoogste) 42% (laagste) Watergift: 1000 ml, met 0.2 ml Silica Power per liter, 0.3 ml CalMag per liter en 1 gr Calcium PowderFeeding per liter.

Welcome back everyone, As you can see are almost all seedlings growing. Some where still in the soil. Might happend when giving water(seedlings can turn or get deeper), checked it out and they are alive and well. All pictures are from day 4. The humidifier had been added, so I had to adjust the room. I spotted a corner of the room that gets dryer faster. I adjust the fan for now and see what happens. Corners are always hard to get perfect. Sometimes the light, air, watering doesn't come there properly. Seedlings don't need much nutrients, neighter do autoflowers. with normal soil I would recommend to only give water for 1-2 weeks, since it holds nutrients in it as well. But since I'm using Cocos for this grow, I might have to add some basic nutrients in the upcomming week. For this week I gave/give only water turns and Startbooster/rhyzotonic turns. Update day 5: - Lowerd the lights to avoid stretching, they are now at 75cm distance from lamp to pots. I want them at 40-50 cm, but I don't want to rush it. - Added another layer of cocos to avoid the soil from drying up therefore the roots from dying. This will happen because of lowering the lamps down, the soil will get exposed more to heat. As you can see, the humidifier is doing his thing haha. Pictures and videos where taken without the lights + fans on. because of that, it will look like this. Still fun thought. Arround 7 seeds didn't reach the surface yet, lets hope they make there way up soon. Enjoy!

Day 21: They did grow a bit. The weather continues to be bad. It's like 10 to 12 degrees at night and daytime it is like 15 to 20. It will stay like this for another 2 weeks. There is not much I can do for now like LST because they are not stretching, neighter the newer branches. Hopefully they will grow larger but I don't expect them to be maximum size at week 2 of flowering. I expect them to pre-flower in like 7 to 14 days. Until next week!

The plant is ready to flower. I covered the soil with inputs and did a little defoliation. It is developing well.

Hi Growers, Day 1 of week 6, two days ago a did smooth lst (i was thinking not to do in this run but i did) like this i improve a bit the light exposure, since i dont start LST from the beggining . Since we have been seeing one of the ladys are smaller but bushy, i think they are good and healthy . Thank you. _GrF_ 👊

The week looked as such: Nothing until Wednesday: 1 gal each pot water with gnarley barley ground and bubbled for 24 hours. Topped each pot w ground gnarly barley, build a soil special blend, kashi and neem meal.

Hundred percent germination rate. Started in a glass of water and transferred to Peet pellets after 12 hours. One auto cheese and four auto Chem Og. Used microbial amendments for transplant. Plants are lined along front and back of 3x3 tent under a Spider Farm SF2000 LED light. 4” intake at the bottom and 6” exhaust up at light level. I have the light at 36” and just added clear plastic 1 Liter painters cups as domes and added an oscillating tower fan per GD community recommendation. I’ll update with a oscillating clip fan. Running at 70F and 65% & rising humidity. I need to detach the humidity sensor from the frame and slip it under one of the domes. I’ll update the humidity once I do.

She looked way too good to not train her outwards and I'm glad I did. Didn't expect more than 4oz prior to training now I'm hoping for a calm 6-7oz. She really is fast flowering

Week 2 Needed to pop more seeds. I will make the count next week and see which phenotypes are the best to select to grow. Some batch of seeds didn’t sprout at all, i.e: AK. Super Skunk only 1/3. Spliff Strawberry sprouted after 1 week in cotton when I was about to give up counting on them.... this is why it’s always better to pop more seeds than expected to grow ! This isn’t the best start, but things shall go back to normal in a couple of weeks. The fan is on speed 1 and not blowing directly on the seedlings. The Mars-Hydro LED is definitely an excellent light for growing Cannabis when you keep it at the right distance. Cellmax BIO soil is perfect, no need to start in plugs you can directly put the germinated seeds in the soil without being worried about the nutrients and the EC/mS. Let’s see next week how it goes. (I’m looking for a job in the Cannabis industry as Master Grower, Mineralogist, Quality Control)

48 hrs. of dark are up and its time to chop. pots have dried from the last flush. These did not stretch as much as I would have liked I will have to adjust my light better next time and there was a lot of lower development near the media, hence not enough air flow. when I flushed the pots the water level went up to the lower growth on the Think different and the bottom was wet and rotted the bottom half. I did a mild lollypop on them I'm early flower it just was not enough, LESSON LEARNED. Chopped on 2/8/20 whole plant drying low and slow 54% RH 68F for 10-14 days then will trim and jar. 981 grams wet with the lumber. lets see how they dry. I got a rosin press coming today I will squeeze all the trim and larffy buds into dabs yummy! All in all I recommend these genetics I will try the think different again I'm sure I just got a recessive dwarf gene. I have seen other grows of this same strain same breeder that are huge and stacked. thanks again to Fast Buds 420 and Green Buzz Nutrients for suppling the goods for the grow. Stay tuned for the harvest pics and vids along with the rosin squish. Be cool to one another we could really use it these days.👏 please fell free to comment on the grow as this is my first true auto flower grow. If any one out there is experienced with rosin pressing and you have any tips for beginner's let me know I will incorporate them in the next videos. thanks

Week 6 flower : I stopped the pk half way through week 6 so it had a total of 10 days feed with pk13/14 I also cut out the silicone and calmag on the same day . I defoliated a little as there was a lot bud sites covered . I am going to start the flush in 3 days which will be . .6 1/2 weeks into flower , going to give them 2 weeks flush with plain water . Still have a bit of leaf curl from the light being so close I did move it but because the canopy is not so even it’s hard to get it right .
