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.....

Day 43_________________________
- Decided to make the 12/12 shift due to my Caramelino growing enough to risk light burn if it doubles in size during flower. I have the light as high as I can safely put it in my tent with fans constantly on above the lights, and still only have 33โ of space from the top leaves.
- That being said, lots of LST will be used to fan out instead of up.
- Flushed out the system completely this time. Before I would drain enough for the water pump to suck in air, but this time I filled with 50 gal of pHโed water. Then I measured PPM. I stopped when the remainder of the water was 250PPM. Just a little richer than my tap water. Should have been doing this the entire time. Probably wouldnโt have had the nute burn spots that I was getting when I was 1400-1500 after half a week of the plant eating and drinking. Now is sitting just above 1000. I feel the plants will appreciate the break from over-nuting.
Day 48______________________________
- plants are all loving the lower PPM numbers and pushing through the trellis net.
- Plants are all drinking about 5 gallons every 3 or 4 days. Replenishing with pHโed water when I notice a significant drop.
- Two main shoots are becoming a pain to try to keep at the same level of all the others. LOTS of LST.

Overall, the Girls are doing great. #2 is still showing some nitrogen excess, but is doing well. Iโve adjusted her feeding specifically in hopes to correct. #1 is not showing the same issue, and is motoring along. Both are stacking nicely, and are bringing on some smell now, and are sticky to the touch. I estimate about 3 weeks more, but who really knows with Autoflowers? Happy Gardening ๐จ๐ฆโค๏ธ๐ฑ๐๐จ

Moved this plant from the front to the back to make it easier to finish LST and defoliating on two other plants. This plant is the largest of all 4 with the most node spacing between bud sites. Trichomes are just starting to appear.
Anyway. No signs of deficiency or over feeding. No signs of under or over watering. Everything seems good. Some slight red on stalks and petioles, so slight under feeding of P or K. Humidity is hovering between 55 and 65 which I am okay with for now. I added black strap molasses and set dehumidifier to 60%. Will drop to 55% next week, and 50% for final weeks.
Pictures coming soon

Hey guys :-)
The lady developed beautifully this week :-) .
She's starting to grow a lot.
Next week I will repot them in 8 liter cloth pots.
Watering was done twice this week with 0.5 l each.
Since I partially washed the earth beforehand so that there are hardly any nutrients, I have a small layer of vomit Added Green House Powder Feeding.
So she has a few nutrients until repotting :-) .
Otherwise everything was cleaned.
I wish you a lot of fun with the update and stay healthy ๐๐๐ป

Week 15 of Ms. Hindu - Day 99 ๐
The week started with trimming the dried stem that broke off and had been drying for 6 days now, see photo. The dry vs. wet difference had me shocked a bit, also my buds seem to be very fluffy, I don't mind, I'm beeming ๐ She has cured now for 2 days and the smell is amazing. We also tried a little each day now and she's brilliant and improving daily, so rewarding ๐
Day 100 - The chop
While preparing her for a last photo shoot in the morning light, I found a little spot of dark mould in the middle of her dense main cola ๐ฑAfter processing the shock with a strong coffee and a little smoke (of her), I chopped her down. Not all of her, but everything except a little young bud, that still wants to grow. Some bugs fell out, a green little guy (see video) and all sorts of nature.
I decided to wash one part of her. Thx to Mrs_Larimar for the inspiration and https://www.docbudsbrix.com/bud-washing for the details. Lots of incredible info on reddit as well. I love science ๐The other half I will wet trim (also a first, the other bud was dry trimmed) and then let dry in the dry box as well.
What a day, pure rollercoaster but smiling and grateful. Thanks to this lovely place as well. ๐
I will add the proper harvest details later and will update with dry weight in hopefully 7-10 days.

3rd week of Veg
Day 18 26/02
I'm very happy how they are growing so far they look healthy so lets keep it this way ๐
Today I gave them nutrients, I mixed the nutes in 8ltr bucket of water, had to be a dose of 16ml of each nutrient and gave 2 cups to each plant.
Excited to see how they will go this week, all good so far.
Day 21 01/03
Its been 3 days after their feeding, they are growing day by day strong and healthy :)
I used LST on some of the auto's, some of them are still not ready for LST, by the end of this week they should be.
For the Mimosa Evo I used Topping technique on their 3rd node.
Also gave them water with PH 6.5 about 3 to 4 cups each
Day 24 04/03
Another 3 days past and they are rapidly growing. Mimosa Evo has been 3 days since there topping and they are already showing signs of recovery.
Today I used LST on all of the auto's. The critical kush auto that I used LST on them 3 days ago are doing very good, I also cut the fan leaf that blocks the light from the bottom stems and now they are stretching for the light ๐
I gave them their nutrients today same dose as before I haven't raised it yet, probably next feeding I will.

As the Ganja Farmer Seed's TKO is ripening and getting closer to harvest, I'm continuing to lower ppm levels while managing bucket water levels and ph. We're exactly at day 56 of flower (5/5/23) on Cinco de Mayo. The TKO reflects a flowering time of 60-65 days, so no more nutrients at this point. I'll continue to monitor Trichomes through next week (i.e., week 9 of flower). Once I see more amber (approximately 20-25%), I will begin a 2-3 day flush with straight RO water. At that point, she is ready to come down.
The last bucket change end of week 7 strictly following GH's recommended dosage. That bucket change out brought an end to the ph swings she was beginning to experience. After the change out, the balance between water consumption, nutrient uptake, and ph is spot on. Specifically, while plant is up taking water, ph and ppm have maintained stability.
She's looking and smelling incredible. There is a learning curve with DWC - no lie - but I've enjoyed the experience. She is an aggressive grower and challenging for maintenance.
All in all, great genetics. Gratitude and thanks to Ganja Farmer Seeds! Peace.

okay, I was a bit confused with the dates uploading the diary, put these pics and video in week 4 of flower yesterday...
last pictures and video are at day 33F

dense you have to use once in the last 3 weeks of flower each, minus the flush. so week 5-6-7 of flower.
grin will get it at 11-12-13....:D:D

10/17/2022 start of week 3. Plants still look healthy. Been LST the Strawberry Gushers and Newberry for a few days and some of the lower branches are catching up. Trying to keep the canopy as uniform as possible. The Strawberry Gushers appears to be in preflower already, which is a bit concerning. Was hoping to get at least another week out of her. Orange Bubblegum is still the smallest of the three, but she continues to grow at a steady pace. I think someone pulled a fast one on me with my cover crop. I have what looks like blades of grass growing, with only a few small clovers showing up so far. Guess that is what I get for shopping on Amazon. Also, increased my DLI to 500. Not much more to report at this time.
On 10/19/2022 I watered 1 liter per pot with the Rootwise and ThermX again. This amount every 2 to 3 days seems to be sufficient for their current size. The pots are wet on the bottom, but no run off. Also, removed just a few of the lowest leaves and fan leaves blocking the lower branches. The LST is allowing the lower branches to catch up.
10/21/2022 watered both the Strawberry Gushers and Newberry with about 1.5 liters each. They are both really growing fast now. The Orange Bubblegum is beginning to speed up, it's just seems like a shorter plant with shorter node spacing. I just misted the surface of the Newberry since the pot was heavier than the other two. Still doing some minor LST on the main trunk and some selective deformation and leaf tucking of leaves blocking bud sites.
10/23/2022 was a big day for the Strawberry Gushers. Top dressed with Gnarly Barley, BuildASoil Craft Blend, and BuildASoil BuildFlower, then watered 2 liters. Plant is starting to stretch so I wanted to make sure she has access to the nutrients she needs. The Newberry and Orange Bubblegum just got 1 liter like usual. Plan to top dress them as well once they get a little bigger.
Avg. VPD: .8
PPFD: 500
DLI: 32

A-Week 9-(Day 67) B&C-Week 9-(Day 63)
A- Loving life, she is fattening up, easily 3-4 inch round buds, about 8-12 inches long circling the plant. Lots of little nugs filling in the middle ๐คฉTricomes are multiplying daily, still almost 50% clear, 40% milky, and 10% amber or so. Couple of weeks left, gotta keep air flow high and RH low with those dense buds ๐๐จ
B- After looking back on last weeks photos, she has really started to thicken up. She has big calyxes, and are stacking nicely. Tops on tops for this one. Her LST and topping created a very dense canopy, similar to A, but B stretched a little more.
C-Done her stretching, she is now focusing on bud building. She is stacking nicely, and I said it last week, Iโm pretty sure she will be the biggest producer if she fills in as thick as her sisters are ๐๐ฅ
No issues, no pests, not even Gnats. A tip I got from WTTGT, Woooooooooh! Was to store your soil/medium near the exhaust of your tent so it always has dry warm air blowing on it. I have not had any issues with pests since doing this before starting this run, and then adding another to the mix mid-run(my GG#4) has had no issues.
The 975 ppm seems to be their sweet spot, I donโt want to push it as it has been almost uneventful with regards to issues or deficiencies. Iโm very happy with the Indo nutrients line, and the addition of the Sensi CalMag xtra together have made this run super easy, considering Autoflowers are far more finicky than photo periods. The differences between each are drastic, topping and LST can be real space savers for those with small gardens, but clearly the un-topped, un-trained pheno is thriving and will produce fairly well ๐ฑ๐๐จ Happy Gardening All ๐ฉโ๐พ

Enjoyed growing bloody skunk such a pretty plant. The smells coming off these girls are mouthwatering would love to grow some more in the future.
I got almost a blackberry/ grape skunk smell off of them.
