***UPDATE**** 6/17/2022 I forgot to mention that I transplanted both Big Bud Auto Plants, well slightly transplanted. I started Big Bud #1 off in a 16 oz grow cup and #2 I started off in a peat moss pod. Initially I just put the entire cup/pod into a 5 gallon pot without removing them from the container they were in. After a few days, I thought to myself "won't that restrict root growth somewhat?" so I took #1 out of the grow cup and transplanted directly into the soil in a 5 gallon and #2 I cut the white netting from around the peat moss pod and planted that directly into the soil in a 3 gallon pot. ***Update end*** Week 3 went by well. I'll admit I'm at the point where I've "been there done that" I don't pay as much attention to them and kind of let them do what they do. I lst'd Big Bud Auto #1, she is the healthiest and most robust of the group currently. Big Bud Auto #2 is sort of a runt compared to it's sister. I believe it may have to do to the fact that I started it in a peat moss pod and placed the entire pod into the soil. Caramelicious 2nd generation #1 is a project of mine. One of my plants hermied on my last grow and pollinated itself. This is one of the seeds from that Hermie. I am curious to see if it hermies or is a female. Because after all isn't forcing a female to hermie and pollinate itself is how feminized seeds are made? Needless to say I got over 1000 seeds, so I'm hoping that they are feminized. White Widow #3 popped up with severe helmut head, I tried my best to pull it off without damaging the plant, but ended up ripping a small piece of the tip of the plant. It is really small rn but seems to be growing. I'm curious to see how it grows. Lastly but not least there has been no action with my lavender and my hot chili peppers. I fed my ladies their first nutrients today. General Hydroponics Flora 3 part series. I mixed 1/4 ml into 3 gallons of water and ph'd it to 6.6 and fed each 1 liter.

11.12.25 Heute wird die bl眉te eingeleitet und ein paar Fotos folgen noch. Zu sagen gibt's nicht viel nur das sie sehr gut aussehen, alle Tops auf einer H枚he sind und die seitentriebe auch bereits neue seitentriebe bilden. An 2 Stelle ist mir vor n paar Tagen ein trieb abgebrochen aber innerhalb der paar Tage sind schon 2 daf眉r nachgewachsen aus dem St眉ck was noch hing. 13.12.15 Hab erstmal nur die Bilder hochgeladen hab im moment nur wenig zeit 鉁岋笍 Wie immer w眉rde ich mich 眉ber Tipps freuen 鉁岋笍馃崁

She has performed very good with the lst method, nice plant, fast growth, quality flowers, it's a very good choice for everyone who's looking for a good quality strain at affordable prices. Very nice genetic, this phenotype concretely has a very sweet and floral terps. You can check the other 2 phenos of ak420 here at my page

Updating two days early but wicked happy with the progress so far. Starting to understand the strain and what it likes to be fed so just trying to adapt to it and really lock in on a smooth feeding schedule. Have been against pruning in the past but couldn't resist attempting "Nebulas Manifold" and finally topped after the 6th node finally developed this morning. Topped on the 3rd node with leaving a stump for connection and trimmed the remaining nodes below. Was pretty surprised at how much they were reaching when I check in on them tonight but happy to see they're still crankin. Time to wait for the 4th node and top again. As always, any questions, comments or suggestions are always welcome! Thanks!

Giorno 1 Ho ordinato un misuratore del ph su internet mi dovrebbe arrivare gioved矛 quindi fino ad allora non posso iniziare il lavaggio. Oggi ho dato a lei 1.5l di acqua come sempre. Giorno 5 oggi finalmente ho fatto il primo lavaggio andato tutto liscio.

On day 1 the PH of the reservoir is 6.1. I changed out my reservoir. My tallest cola is 3.25" from the light. Lower colas are mostly 7"-9" from the light. I'm still getting runoff on my right plant at night maybe the low humidity drying out the pots too quick? I decided to lower the flow rate by 1 carrot (total of 2 carrots tightened since first runoff event). The leaves are starting to produce more trichomes :) On day 2 the PH of the reservoir was adjusted the PH from 6.2 to 6.1. My tallest cola is 3.25" from the light. Lower colas are mostly 7"-9" from the light. I'm starting to smell terps when the leaves are rubbed it and smells good :) On day 5 I raised my reservoirs PH from 5.8 to 6.2. I increased my blumats flow by 2 carrots. I dropped my new light on my plants splitting the trunk of the right plant. I used duct tape on the wound and the plant seems okay so far. I smashed a few top colas accidentally and hope they will be OK. I have decided to install the new light after this run when there are no plants in the box. On day 6 The reservoirs PH is 6.2. I installed my new AC infinity carbon filter and increased inline airflow to keep up with smell and humidity/transpiration.. The plants are smelling very nice. The trichomes are increasing and the buds are growing in size. So far the damaged plant shows no negative consequences 馃槄 On day 7 the reservoirs PH was 6.0 so I adjusted it up to 6.3. I increased the flow rate of my blumat on the right plant by one more carrot bringing it back to its original state before there was a runaway. I turned off my dehumidifier and will monitor my humidity/temperatures going forward.

These are the last images before harvest. I turned the lights off and will let them be in the dark for 24+ hours. I will then proceed cutting/hanging and drying them.

Cinderella 99 and Purple Haze was harvested last evening.. Afghan hash strawberry cough and blueberry are left but I note they are getting a lot more sunlight of course.. but I would be remiss if I did not mention that I planned it this way have the plants that finish first more in the front and when these guys we're done my plan worked perfectly.. they have a couple weeks left.馃憣

The plants are looking really healthy, I've been defoliating here and there to get the light to penetrate to the lower leaves and branches. They have started to bush out from topping them last week. I started using Mammoth P Microbes halfway through last week. They seem to have grown a little quicker since adding them. The plants are still being fed 4 times a day at 1 minute each feeding. No signs yet of which is female and male, I am planning on pulling all the males once they show signs.

10 weeks from seed to harvest. The nutrient line I was using didn鈥檛 give me optimal growth, for this strain and my level of experience. Had some great growth and veg time, about 4 weeks, but when flower kicked in they got beastly. I would say I had two different phenos of this strain, and the one pheno that is unique, had slightly looser buds than the other two. This could be because of the LST/super cropping of the main cola. The other two had nice rock hard frosty buds and have similar smells and profile. The other one has more citrus, and was a bit lanky, more sativa in looks. Overall, easy enough to grow, no major surprises, and decent enough yield for 10 weeks. This is a strain that could have been better had I not had some issues with either lockout/deficiencies.

Flowering looks awesome on the ChemDog! Lots of bud sites and they're growing at a respectable rate. ATF's are running 3 plants in 3 diff stages- one's a couple weeks into flower, one's just starting,and one's still the holdout. Meanwhile, I've got flowering on the Night Nurse and one of the Viper Cookies. The rest are close but I can't say for sure they've transitioned. Weather's getting into a hot and humid phase, gotta watch that ChemDog. Think it's got a decent structure for ventilation but I've read horror stories on how the Dog loves mold. Further training of the branches has been fruitful, I'm seeing a lot more topside bud sites than usual. I'm working on irrigation-- I set up a 30 gal container and it works for drip, but without a pipe system it's still one at a time, although I have to admit it's worth it to save my back. Plus, I have to have a supply ready for use in case my buddy needs to fill in for me and water the ladies. Been checking the cameras regularly ( I have them all throughout the property, game cameras with IR flash), and to date haven't seen anything that would constitute a threat. Just some curious raccoons and one really ugly opossum. Even the skunks don't bother them this year, which is nice but a little strange considering they dig in them every year. It's really just the animals I'm watching for, people aren't as much of a concern. Mostly because I don't know any. Aside from that, I sleep with my head feet away from my babies, so somebody would have to have big brass ones to even try. Yes, I know, a little overprotective. Fingers crossed it'll be one hell of a harvest (by my standards). 8/11 Update: Been lucky still with the weather, but it's turning really humid. Fed the girls this morning, a mix of 1C molasses and 1/2C epsom salt in 20 gallons. Just a little supplement to the tiger bloom they've been feasting on. Speaking of the Tiger Bloom, I can't help but think I'd do just as well mixing my own nutrient solution, since the cost really adds up quick. For his year, however, it'll be fine. My watering gizmo is working well, just leaks a tiny bit and that's fine for the remainder of the year. Now that I have an idea of what works for me I can spend the off-season setting up something right. Had to thin out the Lamb's a bit, it wasn't getting anywhere near enough air flow. Also took a few on the ChemDog as I'm expecting mold/rot conditions for a while and she's prone. Shouldn't have much problem, wind blows almost constantly here, but you can never be too careful. Training is taking well, overall they look pretty good. Next year-- bigger grow bags, better soil, and much pickier seed choices. I think I may even abandon the idea of topping them in the future-- it just slows them down and you can get the same end results with training. Granted, my ladies are kinda sparse and ugly, but that's the learning curve. Next time around I think I have a pretty good idea of what to do and when to do it, based on what worked and didn't work this year. Another big thing is nutrient timing-- I def jumped the gun on flower power for a few of them and it just stunted them wicked-- shoulda continued veg food a couple weeks into flower even for the early bloomer, she'd be a monster.
