July 7th makes week 11 for these ladies. They were supposed to have been harvested this week but we're a ways away from that. We have a bit of maturation and swelling to do yet. Maybe I stalled them, could be genetics, could be a combination of both? We'll see. I'm just happy they look as good as they do and to have had the helpful growmies I've had here giving me tips and help along the way. Thank you!

Cracked a few stems, twisting them 2, 3 points in the main stem and once on each lateral stem, very early monstercropping, cracked the stem without rupturing xylem or phloem channels, minimal recovery, maximum stress and response. There is a new need for significant reinforcement. I know this knuckle will eventually require the throughput of a superhighway. No point in dilly-dallying. Growth grinds to a halt, at least it feels like that. Energy is now distributed fairly evenly to each stem at equal heights and equal light intensity. Growth is not slower; there is just far, far more to do all at once in equal measure, start raising her soil EC up to 1.0mS/cm and maintaining. Upped to 40DLI for now. Temps back in the daytime 87+ range. NPK Raw Grow to keep the soil water solution at 1.0ms/cm, thereabouts. Enzymes and amino acids are applied foliarly to the underside of leaves each night 🌙. Aim to coat the undersides of the leaves where the majority of the stomata are located. Use a spray with smaller droplets to increase the surface area of the leaves that are covered. Adding a surfactant to the mix can help the spray spread better on the leaf surface, improving absorption. Just remember not to add anything immobile.. Heat denatures enzymes. "blah blah what's the point? It's hardly going to do much." Plants have a surprisingly low photosynthetic efficiency, typically converting only 1% to 2% of the total solar energy that hits them into chemical energy. (Too much defoliation and high VPD all night). In fully optimized conditions, that rises to 6%-8% efficiency. Plants may use approximately 25% of their respiratory energy (50% of total respiration) for enzyme turnover, which includes production and repair, but the exact energy cost for heat damage repair is not specific, as the total respiratory energy is not definitively given for plants. Plants generally have a high protein turnover rate, with enzymes making up a substantial portion of this turnover. 10% total ATP is photosynthetically processed. 90% total ATP is processed during cellular respiration. 25% -50% total respiratory energetic output is spent on enzyme turnover (Ballpark). Sounds like it's worthwhile to me. The longer you have waited, the harder you must swing.

The pheno 5 has started to throw out HAZEY smell in the tropical mix. I can smell the slightly musky/cheezy/spicy scents of the haze. I think this is a trait that I will have to consider throughout the selection, since that haziness is certainly something we want to have when experiencing the Liberty HAZE ;)

Hi ho ihr growmies gibt nicht viel zu berichten da die damen keinen platzt mehr in ihren 1L Töpfen hatten und die Stiele und der stamm schon tief rot/lila waren bei allen 4 Pflanzen habe ich mich dazu entschieden die Damen schon jetzt In die end Töpfe zu setzten da das wurzel System eindeutig schon zu groß war für die Ladys dazu aber nächste Woche mehr.... Habe die Damen diese Woche getoppt und von unten her ausrasiert sie reagierten gut darauf und habe auch die t Form schon bilden können dabei sind mir die Achsen die am stamm an liegen leicht ein gerissen zum glück haben die Damen genug zeit das ganze zu verarbeiten und die Achse dick zu machen (wenn ihr rein zoomt bei den Bildern könnt ihr das auch sehen) sonnst war nix diese woche cu und bis nächste woche

Big week! With alot to say here!! The first two apace mango that I harvested two weeks ago, finished up drying at 10 days. I trimmed them up today nice and pretty! These were the smallest two plants of this strain in this run, and the yield reflects that. I find that with autoflowers, the bigger the plant, the longer it takes to mature. With the amount of LST I use, my plants tend to take longer than if I were to let them go without lst.. but, its well worth the reward. 1st two harvested yielded 125 grams od high quality, marketable quality flower. After dry period. And 7 grams of high quality, first run, dry sift kief. Next order of business. Harvest 3rd plant on Thursday of this week. (Today is Sunday). I currently have it drying in a tent. (Along with a Northern lights that isnt in a diary). She will dry this entire week, and i may have havest numbera on her when i updated this diary again! Looking 🔥🔥 LAST ORDER OF BUSINESS I hve attached photos of the final 2 space mango from this run. They are by far the largest plants and will be the highest yielding from this run. I expect around 4 ounces from each plant. Give or take. Plants are fading nicely, and i am currently still feeding only water. I have attached photos first of the remaining two space mango plants that are still building. 2nd. I attached photos of the processed flower from the first two harvested on this run.

Bald gehts in die Blüte. Tag 26 gab es das letzte mal 20 h Licht. Danach geht es ab in die Blüte, der durch die Cup-Regeln festgelegte Endtermin lässt keine längere Veggi zu.

Chopped her down after 2 days of darkness before a slow dry for 1-2 weeks Keeping humidity at 58-63 and temperature in mid to low 60s.

This plant has been going strong for sometime now. I’m starting this grow diary so soon because I need to keep track of how much longer I have until it’s ready for harvest. I already forgot what day I switched to bloom lol. But I’ll be posting weekly. With better pictures.

The plant has undergone extreme defoliation and LST, easily copes with stress, I rest for a while to grow and i will scroging 🌱

Just 2 girls.. pre florwering. ☘️

Strawberry Cadillac – STRNG Seeds W12F3 1/25-31 I fed on 1/24 but Cadillac#1 needs more frequent watering than the others. Watered ph6.4 on 1/26 with another gallon. She is the largest and dries out next to the heater. 1/27 TPS1 14ml/g Silica Gold 3ml/g 1/27 73 6.5 ph & 935 ppm 1/27 66.3F, 6.6 ph & 1014 ppm To balance out the feed solution, I blend some of one bucket into the other and then back to the first bucket. I do this a couple of times to even out the PPM and temperature. Strawberry Cadillac #1 51” #2 52” each drinks 1.5 gal Strawberry Trop Cherry #1 37” #2 57” #2 drinks 1.5 gal #1 only 1 gal Straw-Lectric Lemonade #1 40” #2 50” both drink 1 gal. Other than bud development, they should not stretch any more. 1/29 I did the final defoliation on all strawberry gals. video 1/30 TPS1 14ml/g Silica Gold 3ml/g 65.6f 6.3 ph & 1110 ppm 66.3f, 6.3 ph & 1120 ppm These are after blending the buckets. Important dates 11/9 Germination 11/25 Transplant to 1.5 gal, 12/1 Topped, Pinned and removed 2 large center leaves 12/5 Repositioned pins and removed lowest fan leaves 12/16 Topped 4 tops on each plant except Cadillac1 (first topping) and put manuka honey on the cut. 12/24 Transplant to 5 gal 12/27 Defoliate all 12/28 Flip to 12/12 1/05 Supercrop Cadillac #1 at the joint where I topped her. 1/11 !st flower week defoliation and lollipop for all the Strawberry collection. 1/16 More super cropping of Cadillac1 and 1st time Trop Cherry2. 1/29 I did the final defoliation on all strawberry gals. Stay green, growers love 💚🌿 💫Natrona💫

Hi, everyone 👋 a few days ago I was given a TS1000 lamp by Mars Hydro for grow purposes....this is the perfect opportunity to make and test a Bubble Bucket. I never had one and always wanted to try one out 😎 i had half the stuff needed to build a Bubbler and at this point i"m only lacking a exhaust fan with filter. As the TS1000 from Mars Hydro brings a powerful 150 Watt on board and 2,3umol/J 💪💪💪 I plan to start with two plants, but because my excellent Mars Hydro grow tent is a 60 x 60 cm (2'x2') I am not able to fit in two Bubblers... so i decided to grow the Amnesia CBD Auto by Dinafem in a bubbler and Blue Cheese Auto(when its sprouts :) in traditional method in soil (for comparison reasons). If the DWC will work really well and there only place for one plant i will move the Blue Cheese Auto to a different tent... if not they will grow together. As the Dinafem seed bank is no longer there the seeds i got are a couple years old and i used 4 seeds to sprout one seedling of Amnesia CBD Auto. Let's start of this babies and see them flourish under the my new awesome Mars Hydro TS1000 lamp. All the best to my fellow grower, keep it growing friends 💪😍

Monaco - Nine Weeks Harvest Day 108 🚿 Watered her every second day with 2L of RO tap water, with defined nutrients, mixed individually in order and then pH'd to 6.3. From this week, I will gradually start to reduce her nutrients levels until she is receiving just plain water - she will be flushed for at least ten days before harvest. ✂️ I removed a couple of sugar leaves from around the flower at the top canopy to improve light penetration to help her mature 💪🏻 🌸 Shes into week 8 of bloom and she is just focusing on maturing her flower, which means it's time to prepare her for harvest.🍂 On inspection, her pistils have mostly turned amber with white pistils appearing from newer growth and her trichomes are all milky clear. Her cone shaped cola have taken on autumnal colours, with deep purples and blues popping from under the shimmer of the dense trichome coverage. Her aroma is also very present, with strong fruity and gas notes with undertones of spices! The goals for these final few days is to get her flushed and remove all unnecessary foliage as well as regular inspecting her for maturity levels, but also molds and pests. All good so far 🙏🏻

The buds continue to grow and there are more and more trichomes :) I'm now watering with 4 ml/l of Bio-Bloom which is the maximum dosage recommended by the data sheet. The plants look well and the yellowing of the leaves almost stopped. There are yellow leaves appearing on the O.G. Kush. I think they are too close from the light but since most of the plant looks healthy, I will not move it away from the light. Harvest period is slowly coming. I think they will need around 4 more weeks to be ripe.

I started to feed him a little more Monster Bloom, which seemed pretty cool. I continued to spray blizzard once a day for 1 week, and base water.

Top dressed with some more soil. The top was looking depleted and just want to keep it from completely taking all the nutrients from the soil. Added a mix of power bloom with azomite and glacial rock dust. I watered in with some pure protein dissolved into hot water then added to the water I was using at diluted levels. The second watering they got this week was with molasses. which also does a good job of dropping the ph of my water to the perfect level and a little bit of Epsom salt because I ran out of my cal mag and also want the plant to have plenty of sulfur. Buds are looking cool and remind me of little pine trees. At first glance it seems like they are starting to foxtail but the buds are fattening once the new growth on top starts to expand more. the main colas are almost a foot long each, but hard to tell because the planetary buds around the main colas are blocking them from getting a good picture. Amazed by how frosty the sugar leaves and even some of the older fan leaves are. Her smells are mostly sweet and candy-like. got a little sneek peak of what her fade should look like from one of the leaves being severed partially with a nice yellow and purple. She put on a decent amount of weight this week but towards the end,I can tell she's starting to slow down. Looks like it will still bulk a little more but noticing fewer white and more orange hairs. hoping all my plants finish around 8-9 weeks. i want to try to harvest them all at the same time if i can.

SUNDAY 5/5: Rearranged the gardens..have 17 plants in the 4 x 5 now...yowsa! MONDAY: Plucked some dead leaves and did a trichrome check on couple of them...about 30% cloudy at most.. TUESDAY: I observed some white spots(maybe powdery mildew) on a few leaves here and there throughout the garden, so I sprayed them today with Trifecta Crop Cure, a concoction of a bunch of natural plant oils. I already decreased the humidity in the room to 45% with my new 70L dehumidifier, so I think they'll be fine. I'll spray them again tomorrow and the next day, then I'll have to hope that did the trick, because they'll be entering the harvest window over the next few days.

Hey everyone 🤗. This week was harvested properly 😍. All of them are harvested, except for the two Tropicanna Banana (they will be on tomorrow). All finished crop images follow little by little as soon as they have dried enough and have got their actual bud structure 😃. I wish you much fun with the diary, stay healthy Ges and let it grow 🌱

----- WEEK 9 ----- ----- Day 57 ----- Easy day of watching. Just 1 pic today so far. not much reason to go downstairs to take a pic yet. Glookies is turning Purple on sugar and fan leaves now. Harvest is very soon. I'd wager within 7 days now just going to depend on the High I get off tester nugs. ***Update*** I destroyed the trellis and took em out for some pics and vids. Trichs = Tropicana is ready Tuesday, Wedding Cake probably Friday or within that weekend. ----- Day 58 ----- Last couple days. Fed about 30ml of Cal/Mag and 30ml of Molasses. Wanted to just keep the photosynthesis process and the plant in general alive for reveg. Was getting a bit too yellow for my liking. Harvest soon. ----- Day 59 ----- Harvested Tropicanna Glookies today Deleted this week by accident trying to make it a harvest week, so remade it. Will add harvest week once plants are dry and tester has been smoked to give proper info Put some more photos in. Basically the tent is 4 feet wide and the ruler is 12 inches long from bottom of duct tape Really loving the colors of this plant. ------ Day 60 ----- Fed only the Wedding Cake - 5-10ml of Calimagic and 20ml of molasses (NO Liter level marked or PPM or PH, i could cut today its done but im just maturing the trichs) Tropicanna Glookies is a friggin BEAUTIFUL strain. Moved the Wedding Cake in the tent so largest nugs are furthest away from light and dropped light from 1000w to 600w to save electricity Chop on Wedding Cake happens at mostly amber trichs. Prob 5-6 days max for that i'll know when I check trichs tonight and update with photo. ----- Day 61 ----- Wedding Cake is about 5% amber... so prob 6 days or so. Slow day today. ----- Day 62 ----- Feeding is today, going to just use some CaliMagic and Molasses again. Trichs aren't golden yet, so not chop time ... 8-9 weeks is what it is supposed to take, but it's got at least another 5-8+ days until 30-40% amber trichs for Indica couch-lock effect to shine in the Wedding Cake. Tropicanna could still be going right now, but I did not want more than 5-10% amber gold trichs to prevent a couch-lock effect. This has worked very well. On day 64 I will post a smoke report and full harvest/trim details as Saturday/Sunday is trimming. Will have dry weight results of Tropicanna (per plant, and as a whole). Tropicanna being sent to lab for full analysis will post results when they arrive (Usually 2-3 weeks after sending sample via mail) ------ Day 63 ------ Nothing to talk about today, slow day. almost done. *Update* 1 pic, i think it explains everything.
