1/11/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 1- I have a root almost in the water.. Yay!! Top feeding is almost done. she is looking a little sad as I work the transition Top feeding but once the roots are fully in the water she will start to take off. Ensured my PPFD is set between 250-300 it is set to: 258
1/12/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 2- I have a root in the water.... NO TOP FEED TODAY SIR!!! now that a root is touching the water and she looks stable, I am not going to topfeed, I will see how she looks tomorrow and as long as everything looks good I am going to go ahead and do a change and week 1 fill on Nutes.. I know it is a couple of days in but the same Nutes go through Week 2 and get changed at Week 3 So I should be good to go.. I will just ensure I fill to root touching the water when I change tomorrow.
1/13/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 3- Water Change Day!!
I added 36 Gallons of Water to the system:
Silica= .5mil/gal= 18mil
CalMag= .75mil/gal = 27mil
FloraMicro=3.0mil/gal = 108mil
FloraGro=2.0mil/gal = 72mil
FloraBloom= 2.0mil/gal = 72mil
PH DOWN= 30mil
Very important thing with this system is to now wait the 24 hours for the system to adjust.. Do not make any further adjustments to your PH up or Down for 24 hours to allow time for the system to balance.
1/14/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 4- Today I just adjusted the PH to ensure that it was right at 6.0
1/15/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 5- Today I Cleaned up the lower damaged leaves from the transition from top feeding to roots in the water. She looks good today.
1/16/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 6- Today I just took a picture of the beautiful lady for Log. Other than that just normal day to day operations, check the pH, check the Humidifiers and fill as necessary, check level of water in the Res. Everything looks great. onto Tomorrow!!
1/17/2024 Vegetation Week 1 Day 7- Today I filled the humidifers, checked the PH and just let her grow.. Grow baby Grow.....

Looks absolutely awesome. This is my first photoperiod and you can really tell the difference in density and overall quality.
I wet trimmed her and froze the sugar leaves to try to make my first hash.

This was my 1st photoperiod grow on growdiaries and I'm glad I tried these Fast flowering photoperiods for it. Big thanks to Heather and the Fastbuds team. I have grown the Gorilla Cookies auto before so this photoperiod fast version has something to live up to. She grew way taller then i was expecting, hence the many bends and breaks. To be honest she was great to grow and the favourite plant of the grow. Because this grow was going so good I decided to switch back to photoperiods for the next few grows i just wish i had left her in veg for 1 more week.
Total dry weight for the grow, decent buds=136g
Light power
Total= 200.43Kw
18hrs for 28 days = 504hrs
12hrs for 67 days = 804hrs
Total hours for lights= 1308hrs
200.43÷1308=0.153Kw/hr average.
Average 153w/hr
Total g/W=0.89g/W
Power used for grow=508.78Kw @0.30p =£152.63
Each gram cost £1.12
The buds have been curing for nearly 2 weeks so I haven't had a sample yet. There will be more pictures added once I try the buds and write up a smoke review but for now I'll just leave a video of the grow and a picture.
Thanks to all who have viewed my diaries and a big thanks to all that posted likes and comments, it's much appreciated.

Another great week, saw some great bud production and stacking. All great signs of a good yield. Increased the bloom nutrients to accommodate the plants demands during this intense growth spurt, while making sure they are balanced with a straight phd water feed to help break up any deposits that may be accumulating.
When I use just water, I’ll water until I see about a 15% runoff, and test the ph of the runoff, should be within your 5.8-6.3 range. I’ve got lots of airflow keeping things moving to help prevent PM and pests. After every feed, I’ll spray a mixture of water, a drop or two of dish soap, and some type of essential oil, around the base of the pots and tent basin as part of my pest management/protection. I have yet to have any type of pests, despite growing in an unfinished basement situation. Happy Gardening 🇨🇦❤️👊

reach for the sky!! Holy cow these ladies are going off. watch the time-lapse the end of week 3 and the stretch begins.
the dark devils are showing the auto gene well they are stretching as well but not like the red poisons wow. going to le the dark devils dry out a little i think that strain does not like to much water. the red poisons are drinking like crazy. so already starting to flower at the end of week three. going to hold off on any flowering supplements for now to see if they are still eating the food that's in the mix still. cruising along see Ya next week.

I was going to upload the process, but the wiser side of me said no. So I've edited it out and some of the evaporation process can be seen. Bho/wax/honey whatever we care to call it

She’s ready for the flower tent tomorrow!
Getting perpetual grow started has been a nightmare. Was going to be done talking about it until things actually got moving. Expecting a better update on that topic next week.

Going to run 6 different fast buds strains this time.Dropped the seeds in the water and now a wait for the tap roots.One of the seeds is from Papaya cookies last run I found a single perfect seed and hopefully she grows as strong like the plant she come from :).
Germinated all seeds in RO water at room temps for 24 hours and gave a little tap with a spoon and they fell to the bottom.I left them in the dark in water for 48 hours total and placed them in a warm wet paper towel in a sealed container for 24 hours.The seeds all developed nice tap roots 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch long and I planted in 5 gal pots.Using a 3 inch layer of fox farm ocean forest on the bottom and the top layer is Pro Mix.

This week I noticed that there have been no new pollen balls to pluck. All the new growth/pre-flowers on the herms continue to look 100% female. I am hoping my experiment worked and they have been saved, but we'll see. They will stay secluded to be on the safe side. I transplanted everything into 5 Gallon buckets. I also purchased a new grow kit. It came with a 4(w)*8(L)*6(h) tent, intake fan/exhaust fan/ducting, and 3 LED lights. Two are 2000W and one is 1200W. Hope the babies like their new home! Any thoughts or suggestions for improvement please drop them in the comments!

Removed the damaged leaves and topped 4 of the plants.
One of them is looking really light green/yellow-ish. That plant also has some weird growth, some deformed leaves and hardly any branching. The others are fine. Tried using some of my 12 years expired Canna Terra Vega.

~english below~
Beide Pflanzen entwickeln sich - trotz des nicht so guten Wetters - prächtig. Topf #2 ist nun 49 cm hoch und Topf #3 67 cm, der Größenunterschied bleibt stabil.
Es entwickeln sich mehr und mehr Blüten, wie auf den Videos zu erkennen ist.
Da es immer noch einigermaßen windig ist und ich nicht so recht weiß, was ich den beiden Pflanzen zumuten kann, hab ich beide mittlerweile mit Bambus Stäben abgestützt.
Und durstiger sind sie geworden, mit einem Liter alle 3 Tage kommen die beiden aber aus.
Der Duft wird auch etwas intensiver auf dem Balkon.
Aber dank meiner Blumenkästen welche mit gut duftenden Blumen bepflanzt wurden, ist in der Umgebung nichts von meinen zwei Hübschen zu riechen.

Both plants are developing splendidly - despite the not so good weather. Pot #2 is now 49 cm high and pot #3 67 cm, the size difference remains stable.
More and more flowers are developing, as can be seen in the videos.
As it is still quite windy and I don't really know what I can expect from the two plants, I have now supported both with bamboo sticks.
And they have become thirstier, but they can both get by with a liter every 3 days.
The scent is also getting a little more intense on the balcony.
But thanks to my flower boxes, which are planted with fragrant flowers, you can't smell anything of my two beauties in the area.

Going onto week 2 of flower! These were taken dec28, so day 8 of flower. So far looking fine though a bit dehydrated. This one definitely is water hungry now and needs to be watered every other day now. We'll see how she comes along into the next few weeks.
D6 of this week (d13 of flower), and we can start to see flowers coming in a teensy bit. We are still watering every 2 -3 days. On D7 we did a slightly premature feed of the flower girl fertilizer.
Cheers

Пережил дефицит Кал-мага и засол почвы почти весь цикл. Справился с этой проблемой, дал не плохой урожай и приятный накур. Реально пахнет конфетами.
