i went on holiday and installed an automatic watering pump...seems like it didn't activate as planed...when i got back after 7 days the pots were compleatly dry... i removed alot of dead foliage from beneath...i would have removed it for better airflow soon anyways...so not much harm taken... after a big watering they looked fine again budgrowth didn't seem to be affected by the complete dryout...let's see where this goes...buds look perfectly fine so far

This past week has gone without a hitch. Touch wood but my light timer blunder last week hasn't punished me... Yet... The girls are still bulking up, the lady at the back must be in the dark almost, those large colas at the back are actually from the middle plant... Proper bully! Unfortunately as I have to go under the lights to take some photos, all of the exposures and colours look a bit different from photo to photo. Exactly 4 weeks until the planned chop now :P I'll be making dry ice hash from fresh trim also, and will post some pics when the big day comes... P.s - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n765oOU_MMo - compelling evidence for adding UVB to your grows :)

Tuesday Ok so the plants are doing really well. One of the kalini Asia plants is in the only regular pot I’m using now. It’s a little larger than the AutoPot XL’s so therefore the plant is slightly bigger but spread out because I topped it a while ago and today I took all the bottom leaves as well as quite a few of the lower lateral branches that well small and weak. Hopefully this will encourage the energy to where it want it - The main growth tips! I think it was the other kalini Asia that is in the AutoPot XL that I ended up ‘super cropping’? Do correct me if I used the wrong term. The main growth stems were quite a lot higher than the large lateral branches so I squeezed the stem with my finger and flopped the main colas over then taped them and tied them to support them. The canopy is MUCH more even across all plants now. They look a bit bent over at the moment but I bet when I look tomorrow they are all facing the light again. Magic! They are def in the stretch phase now. They are growing like crazy. I’m really glad I did the nasty job of pulling each plant out and tying it down and cutting off the shit that won’t grow anything good. Oh I also gave them a watering from the top using lots of microbes (ecothrive biosys) and molasses dissolved into warm water. The res was basically empty and honestly the AutoPot XL’s don’t even look wet at all on top even though they are getting all the water they need. They don’t react negatively when I occasionally water goodies in from the top so it’s all good!!

She seems to be doing a lot better since the foliar spray last week. Leaves are a dark green now and the stalks are more malleable due to the silica. Did another Silica foliar spray this week as well. 12 gal of water and it is supposed to rain on them today. Fingers crossed!

📆 Semana 9: La Auto Pablo Escobar mantiene un ritmo estable en floración. Los cogollos siguen engordando y aumentando en densidad, con una producción de resina que no deja de sorprender. Los tricomas son mayoritariamente lechosos, aunque aún se observan muchos pistilos blancos, señal de que la planta todavía tiene margen para seguir desarrollándose. El aroma se vuelve más complejo y envolvente, con notas dulces y cítricas que se intensifican día a día. ¡Seguimos creciendo fuerte! 💪

Starting week 4 off with a few updates: We lost two soldiers today, 11/25/23, and pulled both of the struggling watermelons from the herd. Lowered the lights a bit as I felt they were a bit too high and to prepare for the real vegetative phase coming this week. DIY C02 bottles bubbling away nicely. Transplanted the remaining girls to their final home (5 gallon fabric pots) on 11/26/23. Used Photone app to dial in to proper PPFD at 350 as I was a bit high. Nearing end of week 4, I’m really starting to see rapid growth. Since I’m going with a SOG for this grow, I won’t be doing any topping but I will be doing some LST to start week 5 with 90 degree LST clips. (I’m calling it the 5x5 LST; 5 weeks at the 5th node pair) 😆

## Week 9 Update: Flowering Phase Progress 🌿🌟 ### 🌱 No Visible Flowering Yet 🌱 Welcome to Week 9! We're fully in the flowering phase now, with the light schedule at 12 hours on and 12 hours off. While we haven't yet observed any distinct flowering traits such as pistils or calyxes, the plants are continuing to grow and develop as expected. --- ### 🌿 Current Plant Status 🌿 **Greenhouse Super Lemon Haze 🌞** - **Growth:** The plant is showing robust vegetative growth, with a well-developed canopy. - **Flowering Progress:** No visible signs of flowering yet, but the plant is preparing for the transition with healthy growth and vigorous energy. **Humboldt Seed Bubba Kush 🌿** - **Growth:** This plant is maintaining its compact, bushy structure, ideal for supporting dense flower production. - **Flowering Progress:** Still no noticeable flowering characteristics. The plant seems to be focusing on building strength and stability. **Blueberry Muffin 🥞** - **Growth:** Continues to develop a strong, dense canopy. - **Flowering Progress:** No clear signs of flowers at this stage. The plant appears to be adjusting to the new light schedule and focusing on foundational growth. --- 🌱 Nutrient and Supplement Update 🌱 To support the plants through this transition phase, the following nutrient and supplement regimen has been applied: Power Roots (PLAGRON): 1 ml/l to enhance root development and overall plant vigor. Pure Zym (PLAGRON): 0.5 ml/l to promote root health and improve nutrient uptake. Terra Bloom (PLAGRON): 2 ml/l to provide essential nutrients for budding and flowering. Power Buds (PLAGRON): 0.5 ml/l to stimulate bud formation and increase flower density. Orgatrex (Bio Tabs): 2 ml/l to ensure a balanced nutrient profile and support plant health. 🌱🌱Feeding Schedule:🌱🌱 Adjusting the nutrient mix to ensure balanced support through early flowering, despite the absence of visible flower development. 🌱Environmental Conditions: 🌱Temperature & Humidity: Carefully monitored and adjusted to support healthy growth and prepare for flowering. T🌱raining & Defoliation: Ongoing: Continuing with LST and selective defoliation to maintain an even canopy and ensure proper light penetration. --- ### 🌸 Looking Ahead 🌸 While we haven't seen any flowering signs yet, the plants are progressing well in their transition to flowering. It's not uncommon for the first signs of flowering to take a little longer, especially if the plants are still focusing on strengthening their overall structure. In the coming weeks, we should begin to see the initial signs of flowering as the plants shift their energy from vegetative growth to bud development. I'll keep a close eye on their progress and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a successful flowering phase. Stay tuned for next week's update as we continue to monitor and support the plants through this important stage! Happy growing! 🌟💚

Day 49-56 (Day 50) I hooked up my carbon filter to the humidity controller and it is keeping the room exactly at 65-70% RH night and day. It looks like it turns on about every 45 minutes for about 5 minutes so it allows me to run the co2 bag properly. I don’t even have to use my dehumidifier. The room is 100% dark now too. Even the small red lights on the space heaters. Not going to feed anything other than foliars this week. (Day 51) Blackberry #4 & #8 #9 and white widows #2 & #3 are all confirmed males. Chopped them down and recycled the soil. White widow #1 is the first official female and I’m starting to see pistils on the m39/zkittlez too. Plants seem to be responding to the light fairly well. It’s hung 32 inches above the canopy which is as high as it can go without strapping it to the roof, which may have to happen one day. The plant can get within 6 inches of the light so I’m probably good. The ppfd output is 1800umols which is super high so I want to hang them as high as possible in veg. I wish I could rent a ppfd meter to see if I’m in range at 32”. (Day 52) Blackberry breath #3 is the first official bbb female to show. I decided to scrap BCTG #2. It sounded like a good strain but after looking at pictures of people who have grown it online, it doesn’t look up to my standards. I found a very small patch of powdery mildew on one of the leaves so I’m not even going to start with that shit again. I’m really thinking about scrapping the m39/zkittlez and the white widow too. I’m praying that I get at least 4 females of BBB. I tried super cropping for the first time today. A few of the branches I definitely squished a bit too much as they turned quite brown and looked dead within a day. (Day 53) Despite the m39/zkittlez vigorous growth, I know it will be a shitty strain that will most likely herm as it’s from a bag seed of low grade weed. I’ve decided instead of scrapping it, I will use it for experimenting with a new chemical powdery mildew preventative. If it dies oh well. I doused it and chopped a limb off a few hours ago during lights on and it seems fine. (Day 54) I’m about 90% sure BBB 6&7 are both female. #2 & #5 are looking like males but too early too tell. #1 is really tough to say. Just gotta be patient I guess. #3 has a great spread out structure, I hope it doesn’t stretch too much. The scrogging is a priority. I put up the scrog net just to see how it fits. It’s a little small around the edges but that’s fine. So it’s looking like out the 9, I would be lucky to get 4 fems if #1 & 7 would show forsure already. If #1 is a female I have my 4 and I can throw out the white widow. The white widow is just insurance at this point. Super cropped plants have recovered nicely. Going to continue doing this more. I’ve noticed that the plants that were put into my custom soil mix have very small fan leaves compared to the fabric pots of straight promix and dry amendments. Could also be the fabric pot is helping dry downs too. (Day 56) I’m seeing some yellowing so I’m going to give a foliar spray just too keep some deficiencies at bay. All of the plants are stunted except the m39 and bbb#3. Node spacing has also reduced significantly. I can’t help but feel it’s from the intensity of my lights but maybe they just need a transplant into some new soil something. Luckily the stunt and droop is only really happening to what I suspect are male plants anyway. Leaves are looking twisted and gnarled on #5. Going to move it into the veg tent for a while. I’m going to mix up and amend my Destiny/coco blend today and transplant bbb#3 and 6 & 7 in a few days. I mixed them up in contractor bags making sure to toss and turn vigorously. Here is my blend: 2 bags 40L Destiny soil 2 bags 40L coco 700ml glacial rock dust 700ml oyster shell flour 700ml nature’s pride bloom 300ml basalt rock dust 150ml langbeinite 150ml nature’s pride veg I am also going to try the Destiny top dress as it’s only 13 bucks a bag and full of good shit. I’m trying to not feed heavy in flower other than 2 or 3 top dresses and 2 teas and nothing after week 5. Because it’s taken so long for the plants to show sex, when I transplant into the 10 gallon pots, they should have more than enough nutrients too keep them going strong all the way through flower with just water. I’m a little skeptical about that though. Besides teas and dressings are fun. Everything should be broken down by week 8 or so. Will transplant in a few days.

26.12.24: I have noticed light stress on my plants. I had moved the lights further away and increased the light intensity to 70%. Unfortunately that created some issues. Namely severe palour of the leaves. To try and rectify the situation, I've dimmed the lights to about 30%, staying at the same distance, about 30 inches away. I measured the par levels, after I did this. They should a reading of anywhere between 40 and 150, at the canopy of the plants. They are all different sizes. This seems to have improved the colouring on all plants. After this evenings watering, I will monitor recovery and increase lighting intensity again slowly. I am also using the light cycle of 21/3, so the plants have many hours more light to absorb, than for example 12/12 or 18/6. I am pleased with the progress, considering all of my mistakes! 29.12.24: So I finally gave LST a shot, it's probably a bit too late, however I really want to get the most of the triploid pheno, and I went a little crazy and LST'd all plants except 2, as they're too small. I did that late last night, this afternoon I was amazed to see the plants turn their leaves back to the light source. I'm glad I overcame my fear of trying it. I'm very excited to see them adapt and progress! 😁 there are videos above with before and after of my LST process. Thanks for checking out my diary 🍃 ✌️

This week marks the long-awaited harvest of my 24K Gold. After several close trichome inspections, she finally reached the perfect window: mostly cloudy heads, with the first amber trichomes appearing on the upper buds. Perfect timing for maximum potency and terpene quality. ⸻ ⚖️ Yield (Wet Weight) 📦 773 g wet (confirmed on scale) This number includes the full plant with branches after a light wet trim. Final dry weight will be added after 10–14 days of drying + curing. ⸻ ✂️ Harvest Process • Removed fan leaves only • Performed a minimal wet trim to keep most trichomes intact • Entire plant cut at the base • Hung upside down on a full drying line • Goal: slow drying for best flavor ⸻ 🌬️ Drying Environment • Temperature: 18–19 °C • Humidity: 52–55% • Airflow: Soft and indirect • Estimated drying time: 10–14 days This setup should bring out the full citrus-diesel profile 24K Gold is known for. ⸻ 💎 Bud Quality & Aroma 24K Gold showed its signature traits strongly: • Extremely frosty buds with thick trichome layering • Long, twisted pistils turning orange/brown • Tight, medium-large bud structure • Sticky, resin-heavy trim work • Strong smell: orange zest × diesel × kush This pheno produced some of the frostiest buds of the whole run. ⸻ 🌱 Plant Behavior 24K Gold stayed healthy from start to finish: • No mold or late-flower issues • Responded very well to training • Thick branches, strong stretch • Zero nutrient sensitivity in late flower A very reliable and rewarding cultivar — definitely one to grow again.

Day 8: i dropped my phone in the bath tub so my photos are very blurry atm :/ besides that she’s doing good. Day 12: she’s a grower not a shower, you’ll se😎 Day 14: had to put support on the stem because i had too much fan power so she started to lean. Will recover in 24/48hrs! We are entering week 3 tomorrow! I see forward to it, I will be topping at the 5th node.

Day 1. Hope all goes well. This time I have my substrate ready, unlike strawberry pie. It took off so fast didn't expect it to break ground in 2 days. Which I just transplanted.
