I grew an Apple Fritter feminized plant, which is a cross between Sour Apple and Animal Cookies. It is an indica-dominant strain with a high THC content and a sweet and fruity aroma. I grew the plant in a tent under an LED lamp. The temperature was between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius and the humidity between 40 and 60 percent.I watered the plant regularly with water and organic fertilizer and protected it from pests and diseases. The plant grew very fast and formed many side branches. I topped it several times to control its height and promote its branching. The flowering time lasted about 8 weeks, in which the plant developed many dense and resinous flowers. The harvest was very satisfying. I harvested a total of 74 grams of dry flowers, of which 58 grams were large and 16 grams were small. The flowers had a beautiful color with orange hairs and a white coating of trichomes. They smelled very sweet and fruity. They also tasted very delicious and had a strong and relaxing effect. I had hardly any problems with the plant, except that it was a bit cold-sensitive. I think it would have grown even better in a slightly cooler environment. But I am very happy with the result and would like to grow this strain again.👌 I thank you for the support from all of you and hope you stay tuned to see what happens to my other ladies.👆

Everything is on schedule, I saw pistils within 4 days of 12/12 on both. Not a surprise because they’re feminized seeds, but there’s always a chance. Does anyone scrog with regular seed? I can’t imagine that being a good idea. Still tucking from now through to next week. I’d say the scrog is at 90% full. I could have vegged one more week I bet. This plant isn’t a huge “stretcher” and I knew that. The scrog is now “floating” above the ground on the plants. None of the legs touch the ground. Nbd just interesting. No complaints, issues, problem. Touch wood. I’ll check in next week.

EC Meter broke and accidentally refed the plants double nutes at 1700 EC. Also never measured the pH while flushing with RO water. The runoff is all over the place reading up to 2500EC and 7+ pH. Realized the pH doesn't matter as much but the PPM runoff still is important. Flushed them for a day and transplanted them up to 5 gallon pots to refresh the medium. Also highly recommend dusting your roots with mycorrhizae when transplanting. The beneficial microbes attach to the roots and help metabolize the nutrients being fed for faster root intake.

Week was pretty successful. Only problems I had was my PH out of wack due to the lava rocks. Ever since i took them out PH has been pretty stable. I check it every 2-3 days to keep at 5.8 to 6.2 range. I am up for suggestions on the medium.. should i keep it in or just leave them to sit at the bottom of the net pots? Any help will do for this grow. Thanks

UPDATE - SUNDAY I just laid on my bed in the dark and put the DGC on to listen to as I relax/snooze and I suddenly realised it is Monday and therefore I am due to update my diary, he photos and the comments. I remember now that on my last grow, comparing this weeks photos with that of last weeks makes it easier to see your bud development... I am just about to go and take some photos and feed the recharge and other goodies. They are staring to smell SOO GOOD! I was pretty worried about it not being enough light though. I was worried about it being similar to the time I flowered an auto in a 1 gal pot, under a 200w CFL (one of those comically oversized ones) It had good morphology but it didn't smell of anything at all and had no thrich's at all so wasn't much use lol. Luckily this smells a hell of a lot more and also has visible trichomes. Right im going to go take my photos....ok these are not the best photos but ill chuck some more up later this week. The plant on he right seems to be most vigorous atm and no so surprisingly this is the quick one. Royal creamatic is slower to develop slightly bu I smells so unbelievably fruity and beauiful. UPDATE - MONDAY Hi guys, back again the day after my last update as I got distracted and started taking some photos and remembered the ones I put up yesterday were shit. I was laying in bed last night thinking I am actually really glad I got the strains of genetics that I did actually and here is why. Well, I wasn't actually THAT excited about them if im completely honest, it was more of a budget decision to get this particular cultivar. I was pretty certain I wanted to try out Royal Queen Seeds and I knew I had to, and wanted to try some autoflowers for this run and saw people were getting some excellent, consistent results from a very limited budget in all the grow diaries I had researched. Now here is why i am particularly glad I went with a strain I wasn't all that pumped about. I think if I had been awaiting a strain I was really looking forward too, it would have seemed to take much longer, this way, I am only pleasantly surprised rather than disappointed. I am also going to upload a Bio-bizz schedule into my images so I can just refer to my diary rather than having to dig one out even though I have my diary open anyway. UPDATE - WEDNESDAY These babies are starting to really stink now. I cant tell if its because I vape copious amounts of weed in my flat or if I need to replace my carbon filter. I definitely need to replace my filer for my next round for sure. I will monitor it and if it gets worse with me airing out my flat more I will replace the filter, or at least replace the activated carbon within the filter. I also just opened the door check them and they have gained noticeable amounts of weight on the buds. I love It when you go in the grow for the first time in a while and you can see its grown quite a lot since your last check. I think I am going to have a browse through peoples diaries who have grown the same strains and see who has had success, then try to mimic how they finished up... The smell is unbelievable, these are two really surprisingly smelly strains. I really cant wait for the scissor hash, I think im also going to freeze all the trim down so that when iv done enough grows I can do some mixed run bubble hash as I still have the bags from last time. Ill probably just freeze it until iv competed my next, bigger 60cmx120cm grow with 3 plants. Cant wait for that to be honest, I have been waiting to swap my flats layout and furniture around for ages but I have been awaiting these beautiful girls to finish up before I can move stuff really. Its going to be a pretty big job, but when its done I should be pretty self sufficient with regards to my medicine. This will be a HUGE relief to me in more than one way. It will remove the constant anxiety that I will run out and not have enough medicine, the cannabis itself will also help with my anxiety and depression. It will also help me in a third way just by doing the gardening itself. Gardening is such a therapeutic act in itself bu also the fact I am caring for my medicine for its whole life and then its harvested in order for it to look after me. I love the process massively. I am very scared that UPDATE - FRI I was looking through my used seed packs and I realised id made a mistake and that the pant on the right is RQS Easy Bud. This 100% so I changed the diary. I also fits with previous photos that have been taken of this strain. Makes a lot more sense to me now. I now need to see how long they suggest running it for. UPDATE - SAT Just checked on the ladies and I have some kind of flies starting to infest a little :( I dont know what they are they look like some sort of fruit fly or something. Thy don't seem to be too bad at the moment but I am going to slow down on waterings a little. I increased the amount I was watering so I don't think the top layer of soil is drying out enough so that will definitely make their houses more hospitable to them. I also checked the trichomes with my jewellers loupe but it is a really shit one and its really hard to look through whilst keeping the plans the right distance from the loupe and steadying the buds so they will stay in focus. Anyway long story short, the trich's are starting to get cloudy now. I couldn't see any amber though, I am kind of looking for as much of a narcotic high as possible so will wait a while longer. I am going to start flushing for a week, maybe 2, tomorrow though. I actually checked both the plants for trichomes and they were both at pretty much the same stage, however, bud development definitely looks more advanced on the Royal Creamatic plant due to the fact the pistols are mostly amber in colour now. This is the problem with growing different strains in the same bed. I also noticed I am starting to get some deep purple colours on one of the royal creamatic buds. Only a tiny bit but it's interesting. Am going to wait till tomorrow to take more photos as tha will e the begginning of week 9. I don't really expect the creamatic to pile on loads more weight now really, I have noticed they seem to be excreting lots of "gooeyness" in terms of feel in the past couple of days. The buds look smaller but more compact on the creamatic compared to the easy bud. The problem is one strain I am growing says 8-9 weeks and the other says 10-12 weeks (according to breeders website) and one plant does look about a couple of weeks ahead of the other, however, its the wrong way round and I did have problems with labeling them at one point so I think I may have got them mixed up somewhere along the road!!! It definitely doesnt seem right that the one that is meant to be ready for harvest around now still has all white pistols and the one that is meant to have another 2-3 weeks left, all the pistols are nicely retracted and amber and is starting ti fade before flush and get nice blue colours on the bud. No, I definiely think I labeled them wrong and will probably start treating the as such from here on in I think...god why am I so unorganised!

(12/11-12/17) Days 8 to 14 Hope everyone enjoys the pictures. I will try to add a video and black back or cover pics by end of week every week. Week 1 Notes & Observations: Plant 1 and 2 have been showing nice steady growth. Both seem to have similar phenos so far, so Im looking forward to a nice straightforward grow and training with minimal variants. They will be kept in these containers until week 4+ VPD and PPFD: This week I will hold the humidity at ~75 to 80% while under a dome and temps will be monitored for 70- 75F daytime with 66-71F overnight. Im adjusting my lights and look to control them at ~250ppfd max. I will have to raise and lower pots inside the tent as I will be growing these at a different interval of other plants.

Phwoah! Grow Genius silica came thru in a big way, blessing the Blue Paint crew with the rigidity we’d hoped for. One pheno has a slight curve to it and it’s now evident that they’re starting to break away from each other in phenotypical expressions by way of height, strength and leaf structure (possible variations in new growth width), but these might well be environmental influences rather than genetic. Seedling feeding regimen has been swapped out for the veg stack. The environment of the nursery tent saw a slight shift downward in temperature as the seasons press closer to winter but this didn’t stop progress, even after the Blue Paint crew got a repotting, increasing their root space 10 fold. With the increase in legroom they also got an upgrade to first class with a tent of their own as older auto tent sisters were shifted to their final grow space. Unfortunately this might only tide them over for a short while. The worry is, longer than expected flower cycles mean their final home, the photo tent, is still packed to the rafters with ripening flower and Blue Paint is coming up behind at an alarming rate. No choice but to play it by ear and possibly end up making some big purchases, drastic changes or tough calls. Ready and willing if it comes to it, fire genetics over bag seed all day long 😂.

Well, that day has come, the girl would have been really different if not for the high temperature, strong light, and a huge lack of potassium :( well, everything will be fine next time :) live and learn :) I am satisfied with the result, which is what I need :) got 200 gr of liquid :) gathered a lot of sugar leaf :) they are already in the sweet shop :D I will make an addition!! good growth and success :)

Hi all 🧑‍🌾 Welcome to my 🍌💜👊 week update. Hope everyone keeping well and having a good week. Thank you so much for your support on this bananas journey 💜💚💜💚 I am so happy to see how girls are developing in recent days. It's seems that Athena finally stopped her stretch and hoping that Xena will follow her sister very soon. Buds are gaining weight and size rapidly. Lots of nice colours and tonnes of trichomes on those buds already. Week 10 Dec 18-24 Dec 18-19 Mainly observation. Xena is still stretching like crazy. both girls are developing beautifully. Dec 20 First watering for this week. 7.5 ltr beetwen both. Runoffs PH's Athena 6.2 Xena 6.3. Dec 21 Due to lack of light at lower parts of conopy decided for another selective defoliation, lowered a bit tallest branches with colas dangerously close to light by tieing them to netting. Couple cm will make a huge difference here. Could not clear well at the back wall of the cabinet due to limited access.I'm very happy with final result. Dec 22-23 Joyful observation of my 🍌💜👊girls development 🧑‍🌾 Dec 24 All is looking great. It's seems that stretch is finally stopped. Girls looking healthy and happy. Second watering for this week. 8 ltr beetwen both. Both runoffs PH 6.2. It's the end of this week. Happy Xmas everyone 🤶🎄❄️🎁☃️✌️💚🌲🎅🎄 Stay tuned for new week update ✨🍀✨✌️💚

MAY 9th (day 50) Well we finally started flowering yesterday and within the first 12 hours they stretched a good 2-3 inches already starting to get that Danky dank smell I have to say I’m being able to train a plant the perfect way you want it .. is probably my favorite part of the whole cycle! Since last week they almost doubled in size. Made the decision to go completely LED got one more light coming in today and that will leave me with 940 true watts led also made some improvements to the grow room like runoff catchers and a whole new veg tent !! Don’t mind the end just a little experiment I’m doing lol!! ENJOY THE VIDEO. P.s. always love to hear any helpful tips or feedback !!

This Update came a little bit late cuz time issues but here is it :) Last week i had solution issues and the plants go very fast in bad leaf color. The Solution got too warm in the tanks and the water got a bad smell too. I changed the water and made again the 3rd week nutrition and turned up the fan to get a few degrees colder it worked very well. Roots are so far doing nice and have no burns or rotten parts on nice and white. Then i installed the second light in. The week before i give them 400 W MH and 100 W LED. Now we have 2x 600W and 100 W LED each one turned down to 250 W and the going good. But i had only 1 bulb m MH and so im now have a mixed light end of this week i give them 1 tsp Mineral Magic over the stem to get them stronger Mostly of them are Topped and have not bad mooding on the growing stage of the plants. I hope on get a few Tips on what we can do better on the System Best Regards :) and Good Groow @all

---------------------------------------------- ~Sweet Seeds Sweet Zenzation (SWS84)~ ---------------------------------------------- Zkittlez is one of the most famous and potent strains found on the west coast of the USA. Sweet Zenzation (SWS84) derives from a cross between an elite clone of Zkittlez combined with a specially selected Grape Ape clone, which is one of the strains used to develop the original Zkittlez. The result is a predominantly Indica genetic hybrid. It produces a large amount of resin-soaked flowers. It is both relaxing and stress-relieving, yet it also stimulates the imagination and conversation, an effect that is normally associated with sativa strains. The flowers have a high terpene content, an exquisite aroma and sweet taste, with hints of fruit-flavored candies, hardwood undertones, shades of lemon, cypress and subtle aromatic peppers. Variety: Sweet Zenzation (SWS84) Indica: 70% Sativa: 30% THC: 16-23% CBD: 0.2% Indoor Yield: 450-650 g/m² Outdoor Yield: 400-700 g/plant Effects: Creativity, Stimulating, Happiness, Relaxing Taste: Spicy, Fruity, Citrus, Lemon, Candy, Cypress, Sweet ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ THE SETUP: ~Planted into Jiffy Peat Pellets that were hydrated with de-chlorinated water with SuperThrive added then ph'd to 6.0 @ 80℉ ~Grown 100% organic in 10g fabric pots with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite medium amended with 2tbs/g of Down To Earth 4-4-4 / 2 cups/g of Earthworm Castings / 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, 1tbs/g of Dr. Earth Bat Guano, 3/4 cup of Down To Earth Azomite and 1 tsp/g Down To Earth Fish Bone Meal. ~24hr light cycle during Germination / 19/5 light cycle for Vegetation and 12/12 for Flower ~Straight water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and weekly Compost Tea's. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 9/20- 💥BOOM!💥 Week Six of flower is here and my girl's in high gear, stacking her flowers and pumping out trichomes! Today I watered her with 1.5g de-chlorinated water with 5ml/g of Botanicare CalMag+ added, then ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉. I turned her pot and plucked a couple of yellow shade leaves...the basic daily maintenance. 9/22- I didn't water her yesterday as she looked great and was 'praying' hard. Today she was given 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ which I gave her through her drip pan (bottom chuggin) and I also gave her pot a turn. I'm keeping an eye on what appears to be a few seeds developing. I'm hoping they're just fat calyx's that haven't matured yet however there's a strong possibility that, due to a temperature fluctuation that was excessive (20℉) may have caused her to stress and turn hermaphroditic... Fingers crossed! 🤔🤞 9/24- We're getting close to wrapping up Week Six of flower in a couple of days and she is right on track to be finishing up in the next 2-3 weeks. I didn't water yesterday and today I went ahead and gave the last Top Dress of Dr. Earth Flower Girl 3-9-4, Dr. Earth Gold Premium 4-4-4, Down To Earth Bio-Fish, Down To Earth High Phosphorus Bat Guano and Worm Castings. I watered in the Top Dress with 1.5g of de-chlorinated water which was ph'd to 6.2 @ 72℉ and let her enjoy her meal! 😜 9/26- After her heavy watering on the 24th I didn't water yesterday and when I checked her today at 'lights on' and she still had some weight to her pot and her leaves were praying hard so I held off on watering today and will hit her tomorrow with her usual 1.5g watering. ~Thanks for stopping in! Things should be getting a lot more interesting in the coming weeks...Stay lifted and be Blessed! 😎🙏~
