Greetings, fellow cultivators! Week 10 marks the zenith of our incredible journey with the Big Cheese Auto, and it's like witnessing a grand finale in a botanical symphony. A heartfelt salute to Seeds Mafia for the genetics that have led us to this captivating moment.
Our green queen is gracefully fading into the final chapters of her life, akin to the changing seasons. The Autopot system, our faithful companion, has been the guardian throughout this journey, ensuring a nutrient dance that sculpted the masterpiece before us. It's like the closing act of a green odyssey.
As we approach the grand finale, all additional feedings have come to a serene end. Our Big Cheese Auto is now sipping pure water, a gentle transition as she readies herself for the final curtain call. It's like allowing the plant to gracefully bow out, showcasing the culmination of her life's work.
The transformation is mesmerizing! The colors are shifting like the changing leaves of autumn, a poetic reflection of the plant's life cycle. It's like witnessing nature's artwork unfold, with hues of green, purple, and amber blending seamlessly. Each leaf tells a story, a testament to the plant's resilience and the seasons it has weathered.
The trichomes are now a sparkling crown, each one a testament to the plant's potency. Their production, color, and shape are in perfect harmony, signaling the imminent harvest. It's like a field of glistening diamonds, a visual ode to the journey we've embarked upon.
As a prelude to the final act, all feedings have ceased. Our Big Cheese Auto now drinks pure water, allowing her to express her true essence in these concluding moments. It's like letting her compose the last notes of her botanical symphony.
A profound thank you to Seeds Mafia for entrusting us with genetics that have flourished into this spectacular finale. Aptus Holland, your nutrients have been the invisible hand shaping this journey. Grow Diaries and the community, your support has been the heartbeat of this horticultural tale.
As we stand at the threshold of Week 10, the sense of accomplishment is profound. Our Big Cheese Auto, though reaching the end, leaves behind a legacy in vibrant colors and trichome-laden brilliance. It has been an honor to witness and share this remarkable journey with you all.
Let's continue to cultivate greatness together but first lets see how this one ends !

2nd Week Report 24/10/19 - 31/10/19
25/10/19
I didn't flushed, but I filled the reservoir with 3l of 10% strength solution.
Added to the current solution the same nutrients quantity as the first week (except for "Root Stimulator" and "Enzymes" that the first week were 20% strength and now got back to 10%).
Now the reservoir should be filled with a 20% strength solution
29/10/19
- CMXL is 10cm height and it is growing really well along with his roots.
- LSD is 6cm height and it is growing a little slower like his roots, but both of them look healty. I think in some days should start growing fast like CMXL
Added 2 low frequency (113kHz) Ultrasonic Piezoelectric Discs:
- One for the root chamber that should help with root expansion as it nebulize solution and the fog carries nutriments (like a small aeroponics integration) and will help my attempt of cloning.
- One will stand in a 20% solution next to the plants to increase Humidity (and maybe feed them a little).
I'll try to set them running 24/7
Switched water pump that sprays Rock Wool from 5sec every 30min to 6sec every 60min. Next week I plan to stop using the pump as "Top Feed" if roots will be well developed and probably I will use it as "Recirculation Pump" to keep nutrients in reservoir mixed better
30/10/19
Roots exposed to air inside reservoir got a little yellow after inserting the small fogger, so I will try to keep it 30/30 seconds ON/OFF. I will check next day if it's helpful to existing root o as root propagator for clone trial
Topped CMXL and did a little of LST just by bending the main stem to expose the small growing next to fan leaves.
The cutting was immediately dipped in a solution made by honey and Root Stimulation (the same I use for reservoir solution as it should contain rooting hormone), hoping it covers the cut like a gel and don't let the oxigen get in the cut until there will be some new growing.
After that I put the cutting on the lid without any pot, as you can see in the picture some tape is covering the hole and it holding the topping. I covered it with a small jar to maintain humidity, hope to see some roots next week ;)
I plan to fim LSD tomorrow if tonight grows enough
31/10/19
Filled the reservoir with 6L 20% strength solution and after that added 10% nutriment for 36L directly into the tote (like I did last week).
Now nutrient solution inside reservoir should be 30% strength and it's ready for the 3rd week
Pinched LSD Top with my fingers and applied LST by bending a little the main stem. Hope this FIMming works and returns better yield ;)
Cloning trial didn't worked (I was expecting nothing, just a test), the cut part of the topping is already dry. I knew the topping was too short, next time if I try to clone his stem will be at lest 2cm
Last Update 31/10/19
Next Update 03/11/19 with the next week
See you guys ;)

Hi everyone ! 😀
Everything is ok, no disease, no carrency. but 2 ladies don't want to stretch a lot :/ ( the 2 on the corner, bottom left and Top right ) i don't know why. maybe it's the variety. i have 4 Skunk XL and 2 Critical. Maybe these 2 are the critical ( yes i lost them when i plant the seed 😩 ... )
No more pH fluctuation ( i love that )
EC is around 1.9/2.0 and increase to 2.1/2.2 when they drink a lot so i add water with 1.7 ec to decrease it to 1.9/2.0 again
I added 30L of water since i changed the water ( 2 tanks * 20L / i change it the 11/05/18 ) so i'm gonna change the whole solution during the week.
See you next week !

Logan's Run is up and running. She received her first worm casting tea yesterday. She is praying today and tomorrow she will begin getting Bloom. I should have taken some of her secondaries per the guide, but they were long and flowering by the time I could tie her down. They have stood, and I think I will get a inner ring of secondaries for my trouble. She is is doing great. I have had a slight gnat problem, but I have gotten it under control with DE. Just put it in a lid, and left it near the plants. Cleaned the tent, and both girls are doing good. Happy farming, see ya next week.

First day of seventh week, I finally took out all the blumat water lines to be able to level the canopies to better perform the next four weeks.
The whole tent is full of little colas, especially the lazy seed that have the most tiny ones due to the slow growth plus that she was quite in the bottom until today but now she's finally receiving same light as her sisters 💪.
Today I watered again after three days, soil tension went from 40 to over 200 before watering that probably mean from now on will be better to stick on watering every two days instead of three.
Things are getting smelly and promising, this week I'll do another insecticide foliar spray and watering and hope for the best.
Peace ☮️
D46.
That's a lot of wild stuff going on in here and my little girls look happier than ever, all the fans around every cola turned deep purple and full of white all around and they smell so good.
I just watered 10% of the pot capacity with neem oil, calmag, higrozyme and nutrients until EC 1.9 pH 6.1 so water tension came down from over 200 to over 40mbar, also foliar sprayed again with potassic soap, neem and phyretrine since some thrip are still messing around.
Good news the lazy plant despite the little colas once started receiving same light as her sisters she strengthen production and color of the leaf, not so bad!

whatever it is, it's a pity, but you can't fight with Nature :) as far as I can see from the drone flight, the girls are simply gone :D:D they are under water,.... it's a pity.... it rained a lot during the week, there is a river 300m away which flooded, here is the result: D I see this for the first time in 9 years .... well, nothing new automatic seeds, already thrown into the ground :) so I will wait for new girls :).

Hi Growmies.
A good week for the girls this week with plenty of growth now starting to happen. I was worried about the #2 jealousy as she did seem to be lacking something but was too young to mess about with her feed. The Candy Rain was looking similar toonwith an obvious dislike of something in the soil mix. I have begun feeding them with my all time favourite nute , Mega crop. The vibrant green that this non salt based nute helps develop is an excellent conductor for photosynthesis. It has rested so many of my plants over time and bever fails to give them a really healthy appearance. I have seen the recovery with both if the smaller ladies andndont doubt they will catch up with their peers. The Bruce Banner#3 is really going for it with growth and had already pushed 6 nodes out. I have now Fimmed her at her 5th node and plan to quad the lower 4th and 3rd nodes in their l.s.t. I am close to being able to do the same with the Jealousy #1 to. Hopefully by the next update , they will all be underway for their planned growing pattern. I hope your all keeping it nice and green. Stay healthy and free , do not consent or comply. until the next update......

Harvest report for Ak47.
Breaking ground to harvest was 91 days.
Wet weight was 288 grams
Dry weight =49g
Power used for 13 weeks. 268.1Kw used on lighting. £80.43 at £0.30 a Kw
Average 2.946 Kw a day =147 Watts power an hour during lights on.
Dry weight from this grow.
#1 49g
#2 37g
#3 46g
#4 39g
#5 51g
#6 52g
Total 273g
True g/W 273÷147=1.85g/W
This was one great grow and there are a few strains I'm really considering running again straight away. This strain is one that I want to grow again but give her a bigger pot. She has grown decent solid buds.
One thing I have learnt during this grow is that the idea of cramming 9 autos into my tent was a stupid idea and trialling it with 6 plants was wise.

Harvest Report by Zuppler - End of Week 9
Yo, what’s good fam? Zuppler comin' through with that harvest report, Week 9 wrapped up and it’s time to bring these queens down. The buds are lookin’ fat, frosty, and sticky – they ripened up just right, with that perfect mix of milky and amber trichomes. Real proud of how this run turned out.
I learned a lot in this grow, no doubt. Dialin' in them nutes, catchin' the burn early, and lettin' them heavy buds stack properly. It’s all about leveling up, ya feel me? Next grow, I’m excited to be poppin' some Cherry Pie and Fruit Cake beans – gonna take everything I learned this round and make the next one even better.
Zuppler out. Stay tuned, fam – the next one’s gonna be fire!

Okay, we are off running now. Through germination and was delighted to experience 100% success rate👍
Two girls this run and now have a GSC and a GSC2 this run. GSC was chosen for the first to break the surface and while the second GSC to come up is now GSC2, she was actually the third to break the surface. Excited to run this strain from Fast Buds.......there are newer strains but sometimes a classic is good😃
Greater focus on VPD this run. Already pushing the humidity higher than I ever have with having controller set at 72% with temperature at 79 degrees. I have been reviewing the numbers and I have normally been close but it looks like I have to raise everything by about 10% and for a few weeks long😬😬😬😬😬😬 Trust the science and lets learn some more from this grow!!!

I had a late lockout not by watering too often but too much at once trying to get back to back ppm runoff readings and it was 4 days twice of the roots looking for oxygen. I know I can do better with it because I love the strain I’m going to take it to the hydro setup. Those first 4 weeks are super critical to make the last 8 count. Over all it was fun and Dinafem never lets me down with great genetics and customer service!
If you’ve grown or are growing it share your data to help make mine better if you have a minute.
Thanks for lookin’.
Ps final weight will be updated but this is my guess ;)

Hi alle zusammen dies war die letzte vegi Woche puh! Wieder 10 Wochen ins Land gezogen die Zeit rennt auch 😰!
Die Woche lief ganz gut bus auf Dienstag da wollte ich alles noch einmal nach justieren und da ist mir die lady die hinten rechts steht gerissen also das T von oben ein gerissen (gespalten) hat sie aber nicht sonderlich gestört hab sie so gut es geht fixiert (sollte auf den Bildern und dem video zu sehen sein werde es nächste woche nochmal genauer fotografieren) ist leider dadurch nicht alles unbedingt auf gleicher Höhe so 2 bis 3 cm höhen unterschied zu der kleinsten von den 4 octos aber naja habe Freitag abend nachdem das Licht aus ging den reflektor ausgebaut und einmal Grund gereinigt und wieder eingebaut danach das ganze von meiner Mh auf Ndl gewechselt. Die zeitschschalt Uhr habe ich auf 12/12 umgestellt ab jetzt geht es langsam Richtung heisse Phase 😁😂(ich freue mich schon auf den Duft und das geglitzer) euch allen ein schönes Wochenende mit viel Sonne 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
