NOTES:
Keeping the pH between 5,8-6,0 and EC at around 1,4-1,6 depending on system. EC at 1,5 seems to be optimal and my measurements are staying pretty steady at that level. Humidity is lowered to around 50% if I can.
The tops are now at around 45-60cm height from the soil.
Continuing the last heavier defoliation/pruning process that I started yesterday at the end of 2nd flowering week. I saw no signs of mold or any other issues as I went through the plants.
After this week I'm going to change the nutrient solutions on the tanks and fill them with fresh nutrients with minor changes: Dropping the amount of Grow from 1,5ml to 0,5ml and increasing the amount of Bloom from 1,5ml to 2,5ml. After the change I'm only going to refill the tanks without adding any Grow and will instead increase the amount of Bloom to 3ml. Propably a one more change of fresh nutrients until flushing with Final Solution prior harvesting.
Day64 (19.12.)
Some more defoliation focusing on the upper growth revealing bud sites below them and keeping off the moisture. Already got a trash bag almost full of leaves since they've been pretty bushy plants on average.
Day65 (20.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process.
Day66 (21.12.)
Continuing the last defoliation process, pretty satisfied with the results so far. Light penetration and airflow have increased greatly so I don't have to worry that much about humidity or possible mold any longer.
Each strain has started flowering, all plants are females and buds have started to develop. Defoliating didn't seem to stress the plants as much as I thought it would.
Day67 (22.12.)
Day68 (23.12.)
Refilled and added some nutrients with a stronger Bloom/Grow -ratio (~4:1) and left my girls to enjoy the Christmas Holidays as I did. I'll be gone for around three days, after that I'll change to new fresh nutrients as I mentioned before.
One Ayahuasca Purple seems to be ahead of others, and a few other ones have clearly started to develop some buds too, rest of the plants are following closely behind. Each strain has some truly astonishing individuals, and I think Ayahuasca's have shown most variety between different plants. Overall everything looks pretty good I think. Hopefully can say the same after a couple of days as I come back.
Happy holidays everyone!
Day69 (24.12.)
Day70 (25.12.)
I added another Led light to my tent just before the lights turned off. Everything looks amazing!

Day 71 :
sie bleibt noch im Aufbau !!!
Day 72:
+ 2L Flaschenwasser
++ Dünger mit wenig CalMag
+ final PH 6.35
Etwas sehr interressantes ist mir aufgefallen , deswegen hab ich auch ein Video davon gemacht.
Eine SideCola hat sich oben wie topping verhalten und 2 TopBuds entwickelt . Sieht echt nice aus .
Ausserdem hat sie überall da wo ich etwas abgeschnitten habe einfach neue Triebe mit neuer Blüte gebildet.
Diese Dame hat irgendwie nur ein Sinn , Blüten bilden wo es geht :)) Ich lass es einfach wachsen , dagegen arbeiten wäre eh zuviel stress.
Day 73:
Day 74:
+ 2L Flaschenwasser
++ Dünger mit wenig CalMag
+ final PH 6.10
Day 75:
Day 76:
+ 2L Flaschenwasser
++ Dünger mit wenig CalMag
+ final PH 6.10
Day 77:
Trichome sind noch nicht ganz fertig .

Transplanted and topped on the 30th this is week since I don’t think it took to the new home completely but it looks okay still I think another week and we should be good had to get a new humidifier old one broke so I got the T3 from acinfinity works great I’m dialed in pretty good 01/06/25
1/9/25
Decided to give that thang a cut and pinned it down first time trying this so hopefully I get a good result also used the new dynomyco wettable powder added 1ml per gallon and also fish shit and growers recharge ph all that in reverse osmosis water to 6.7 did a good watering on 1/10/25

She's steadied out on the stretch for now
She has taken her own weight throughout, a nice feed of silicon gave her the boost she needed.

I have never seen a plant so vigorous. Two weeks in and I was able to top and LST. I can hear the experts screaming, “too early”. Maybe, we will see. I continue to use RO water and no nutrients.
Check out the video. I think I have a pretty unique idea. Comment below with advice, praise, or insult.

Standard week. starting to swell. No issues really.
Wish this girl smelled more. My Bakers delight grow has set the bar high and I think this will be just an average pheno. Probably grow this strain from seed again next run unless she gets her dank on.
Defoliating heavy around the tops to keep main canopy below strip level. Aim is for even light on every single bud site, or as much as possible

i accidently bought some unbuffered coco and mixed it with my ussual earth, had major calmag problems in mid-flower but i´m still pleased with the results...also had a little trouble with mold at the end due to bad weather and high humidity in the final weeks of the grow, had to remove a few buds and harvest early @ day 55 of flower....but there's still alot of great looking buds left for me to enjoy and all look mostly done...
Just harvested and hung them upside down, currently drying them at constant 19.5-20.5°C and 50-60% RH..will update as soon as they are dry

Partially drained the tank at the start of the week and topped up with ro water and 1ml of final solution per Litre. Last 2.5 days were in darkness.
I trimmed the majority of fan leaves before hanging up to dry in the tent today. Started out trimming with the plants in the tent and soon realised it would be much easier to just cut them down whole, hang them upside down outside the tent and trim them up a bit.
I have a small dehumidifier and a small fan heater setup in the tent and they have been keeping a humidity level of about 60% and a temp of 16 Celsius for the last few days while the lights have been off. I figure that's a good starting point for drying and I can increase the temperature if needed, that will drop the humidity also.
Intake fan at the bottom and extract fan at the top are running constantly as they have been since the grow started (low power 4" fans).
I might add back in a fan for circulation depending on how the drying goes, or maybe even trim or hang the plants better to get more airflow around the buds

Hi there!
I decided to cut the other plant like I said. I wanted to try the FIM method and I actually missed and did it in two times cut! 😢
From now on plant #1 will be mentioned as FIM and plant #2 will be the TOP.
Lst is a very interesting method and seem to work but I'm not totally sure if I do it right.

This is my first Amnesia Auto. It has been an easy grow so far. Looking forward to the buds fattening up, which almost goes without saying. But, interested to see how loose or tight they will be.

Hello. This is the end of week 8 and the beginning of week 9 of flowering.
I've stopped closing up the tent at nights now. The plants are so far along in flowering they won't turn back to veg, even with the neighbor's lights on.
So I'm not in there twice a day now. So I was a little surprised to find spider mites. The grow was going so good I thought I missed the bugs this year.
But they showed up. I bought a Hypochlorous Acid Generator last year last year early so I was prepared.
I used it at full strength last year for spider mites and I got yellow leaves after a couple of weeks. I guess the leaves got a bit fried at full strength.
So this year I'm trying it at 1/2 strength with a drop of dish soap to help choke those dam spider mites.
It's a little pricey, but I'm hoping to get years of use out of it, to make up for the price.
Everything else is going good in here.
Started flushing yesterday with PH adjusted tap water. The tap water used to be at 6.5 ph for years, but the water counsel found out that 7.5 ph water is better for you.
So I have to adjust it. It's 1 drop of ph down per gallon and it makes it 5.7 ph. water.
It will be 2 weeks more of flushing and then harvest. With the Panty Punch male plant ...
I've seeded 1 branch of each plant and I've pollenated 4 clones too. They are - The White, Amnesia Lemon, Critical OG and Pink Kush.
I'll send you some free good regular seeds if you want to do a diary on them. I learn from your diaries so I can improve my breeding technics.
So if you would like some free seeds, privet message me and we can chat about them.
I send them in a Christmas card with an international stamp. It cost me about 3 dollars Canadian.
I don't mind. I get to learn from you.
Ok. Be Great.
Chuck.

Starting to see the preflower and one of 3 is asymmetrical... worried it might turn out to be a hermaphrodite plant.
Also scared to bend the stem to lst, don’t wanna snap it. Any tips on how to start lst with main stem foolproof much appreciated 😅
Should I let them dry out a little more then usual when bending or it’s not going to soften the stem? Should I counteract the top tension point of the bend with one on the bottom for support and do it gradually every day?

Fat Bastard Auto by MSNL
👉Sponsored Grow👈
W7F6 8/4 10-16
Watered at the end of last week and have not watered yet this week. I have been foliar feeding at least once a day with the blend.
Calmag 15ml
Plant Juice 60ml
GH bloom 5ml
Green Sensation 4ml
Feed was ph 6.37, ppm 784 at 65f.
I ph’d the water down to 6.25 with brought the runoff down to a range of 6.7-7.42 on the plants in the tent. I think it should be lower, but in the meantime, I hope this helps my tent family recover from lockout.
I defoliated to remove yellow leaves and an undesirable new discovery appeared 😱. I wasn't sure so I asked. Well within minutes, i had my answer. I saw pollen sacs 😡. Damn it. Fat Bastard is a bastard. This is my first plant to hermie on me. My responder gave instructions so I cut off the sacs and threw in the toilet. Further examination shows what I think is she already pollinate self and has seeds. I will grow her out for next month. This grow that was supposed to be easy, water only, with a clean finish, has been anything but.
Thank you all for your continued support and encouragement. Your likes and comments motivate me to keep sharing my journey. Let’s continue to learn to grow together!
Stay green, growers love 💚🌿
